Quick Wear: Everyone knows I am a good person

"My lord!"

The petty official also looked pale and thin, tears streaming down his face. "Your Excellency, I have never coveted a single grain of food!"

"Seventy percent of the imperial court's disaster relief grain went to Qishui County, and I only received two bags."

"This humble official and the people have taken out all the remaining food from their homes. This is the last bit. If we don't save some more, I'm afraid, I'm afraid..."

Although the porridge is thin, at least there is still some rice that can be drunk.

If they really have a big meal and then have no next meal, the victims will definitely kill and eat each other after being extremely hungry!

They can't bear that responsibility!

Hearing this, Shu Jiao's face darkened.

Seventy percent of it was supplied to Qishui County?

Ah!

OK!

No wonder she had visited Qishui County before and saw that they were doing a great job in disaster recovery and refugee appeasement.

It turns out that resources are greatly tilted!

I guess that group of people didn't expect that she would suddenly turn back and randomly choose a disaster area to go to?

Shu Jiao's eyes instantly glared at Wang Qiming.

Wang Qiming slapped his shoulder and said, "Your Majesty, I am guilty."

The mistake has been made, there is no point in saying anything.

He was ready to take the responsibility and be demoted and reprimanded in the end.

But Shu Jiao didn't scold him.

Turning around, Shu Jiao took a deep breath and looked at the disaster victims who were drinking watery soup, their bodies shriveled with hunger, and who were trembling as they tried to salute them when they heard the noise.

"Folks!"

Shu Jiao walked into the rain, her voice penetrating the patter of raindrops and reaching everyone's ears, "I am the third daughter of the current emperor, Princess Xining."

"I heard about the disaster in Xianzhou, and my father is worried every day."

"Natural disasters are merciless, but my father and the imperial court will never forget you!"

"I'm late."

"It was my fault for not handling the situation properly, causing you to suffer."

"Everyone, rest assured. Food and medicine will be delivered within three days at the latest. Please persevere again. We will soon overcome this difficult time!"

Hearing this, a ripple of life finally appeared in the dead eyes of the disaster victims.

"Sir, is what you said true? Three days, food will arrive in three days?"

An old man asked with a choked voice.

It can be seen that the old man has some influence in this village, because the victims were all looking at him.

"Correct."

Shu Jiao reached out, grasped the old man's trembling hand, and said loudly, "Three days at most! I guarantee you that the food will arrive in three days at most!"

"Okay! Okay! We, we can survive."

Tears welled up in the old man's sunken eye sockets. "Thank you, sir. Thank you, princess!"

It is enough to hear this promise.

They have hope!

Facing the grateful eyes of the disaster victims, the second generation of the powerful felt indescribably heavy.

They looked up at Shu Jiao who was standing in the front.

The strong wind blew up her clothes. She, who should have been a noble, was blending in with the victims whose lives were worthless. Her thin back seemed as steady as a mountain.

Princess Xining...

Princess Xining seems to be really good.

"Have all the houses in your village been washed away?"

Over there, Shu Jiao had already begun asking about the details of the disaster. "Where are the livestock? Are there any still alive?"

"Gone."

"It's all gone."

“The person is gone too.”

"There were originally 271 people in our village, but now only 42 remain. I don't know if the others died or were washed away elsewhere."

The old man smiled bitterly and self-deprecatingly, "At least, we are still alive."

In the face of natural disasters, it is good enough to be alive.

What else do you want?

"Everyone, please come and register. As for those who are missing, we will do our best to find them."

Shu Jiao comforted her softly.

Seeing this, the other officials also began to help ask questions and take notes.

Shu Jiao glanced at them and handed all the dry food she had on her to satisfy her hunger and prepare for emergencies to the official who was distributing porridge.

"My Lord, these?"

"Take this, and make sure everyone can hold on until the third day."

Shu Jiao said, and then asked: "What's your name?"

The clerk said, "This is Zhang Daquan."

"Zhang Daquan, do a good job. I will remember you."

As Shu Jiao spoke, she picked up a broken earthenware bowl from the side and walked to the pot.

The clerk hesitated, holding the long spoon.

Shu Jiao grabbed it, scooped a bowl of rice soup from the top, and chatted with the victims while drinking it.

Don't mention tragic things like deaths and lost relatives. Try to make the best of a bad situation by talking to them about something cheerful so that they have the desire to live.

To be honest, this porridge tastes really bad.

003 felt sad when he saw it, "Host sister, when have you ever suffered so much?!"

"It's okay."

Shu Jiao glanced at the disaster victims, who finally looked a little relieved. "It's what I should do. Disaster relief doesn't just provide physical relief."

There is also the broken spirit of the people affected by the disaster.

People are very resilient.

As long as there is a little hope, no matter how hard it is, you can grit your teeth and persevere.

What's more, Shu Jiao came here to gain fame.

If she had just eaten dry food there and let the victims drink thin rice soup, believe it or not, the impeachment would have been delivered to Emperor Qianyuan before she even returned to the court.

Since there is a possibility of succession, she doesn't want to give herself any room for criticism.

003 nodded, it understood this operation.

I just feel sorry for my host suffering.

Perhaps because they had witnessed the tragic and hopeless disaster scene with their own eyes, the group became increasingly silent on their way back.

"Princess, I..."

When they arrived at the camp, Wang Qiming knelt in front of Shu Jiao and apologized.

The problem with the distribution of disaster relief food was his fault.

Shu Jiao didn't pursue the matter just now because the occasion and time were not right. He should understand things better now that he is back.

"Master Wang~"

Shu Jiao called out in a heavy voice, "You're a veteran in disaster relief, how could you make such a mistake?"

"minister……"

Wang Qiming's face flashed with shame. "I failed to observe this. Please forgive me, Princess."

"I know that things are complicated and confusing right now, and I may be too busy to take care of them."

Shu Jiao's tone softened as she spoke. She reached out and helped Wang Qiming up. "You made a mistake, and I also made a mistake of neglecting my duty. What you should do now is to fix these mistakes."

"Don't let this happen a second time."

Wang Qiming can also be considered a capable manager.

Besides, this kind of mistake is not uncommon in disaster relief situations, and Shu Jiao won't keep harping on it.

Fall down heavily and lift up lightly.

Only then can you win people over.

"Princess?"

Hearing this, Wang Qiming was a little surprised.

This is the first time I heard that after making a mistake, the leader did not let him take all the blame, but let him bear the consequences.

Oh ~

No.

The same is true for the current emperor.

If a confidant makes a mistake, the current emperor will also take responsibility.

Wang Qiming thought back to how Princess Xining hadn't said anything about him being at fault in front of the disaster victims, but rather that she had mishandled the situation.

This princess can follow!

Can follow!

Princess Xining treats him as her confidant!

"I understand!"

Wang Qiming responded solemnly, "I will investigate immediately and will definitely not let this happen again!"

"I trust you."

Shu Jiao nodded and said with concern, "You should rest and take care of yourself. I'm counting on you to help me."

Wang Qiming: Ah——!

Princess, she cares about me.

She values ​​me!

I, Wang Qiming, have met a wise master today!!!
