The princess is farming with her baby, daddy, come find me soon
Chapter 74 Flood
After seeing the gate open, Mingxing returned to Mingnanluan, strided onto the horse with his long legs, and followed him into the government office.
The bailiff watched as people rode into the government office one by one on horseback, followed by more than a dozen horse-drawn carriages.
After everyone came in, he closed the door with trembling hands.
in the lobby.
Yun Zhengming stood below the seat, lowered his head respectfully, waiting for Ming Nanluo, who was sitting on the high seat, to speak.
Fortunately, Ming Nanluan didn't let him wait too long and asked what the situation was right away.
Yun Zhengming turned the words over in his mind for a few times before he spoke them out loud.
"Sir, this heavy rain has been going on for more than a month. Qingshi Town is located in the center of the entire Wujiang County, with the lowest terrain. The water from the tributaries of the surrounding towns all flowed into the main trunk of Qingshi Town. Two floods occurred a few days ago, and almost half of the entire Qingshi Town was flooded..."
When Ming Nanxuan heard this, his eyebrows became even more stern. His face, which had already taken off the veil, showed delicate and three-dimensional features, a high nose and thin lips, and a sculpted jawline that looked even neater and clean under the light. However, his aura made people dare not look directly at him.
Mingxing, who was standing below, had already seen his master's slender and powerful fingers tapping on the table.
Just when I was about to remind the county magistrate to get to the point, he had already changed the subject in that direction.
"but......"
"However, because we made preparations in advance, apart from the large-scale collapse of houses, there were not many casualties. I have communicated with my colleagues in Lin County by letter, and they were not greatly affected. Although it rained for more than half a month, the rainfall was not heavy. In addition, we also made preparations in advance, so the situation is much better than that in Wujiang County."
Yun Zhengming stopped and took a quick glance at the people above. It should be okay for him to say that, since what he said was true anyway.
How could Ming Nanluo not notice his little action? He half closed his eyes and pretended not to see it.
“What about the people whose houses collapsed?”
Ming Nanxuan asked pointedly.
When Yun Zhengming heard him ask this question, he began to talk incessantly.
"Sir, you may not know that before the flood came, I requisitioned all the houses on higher ground in Qingshi Town and built a relief camp. Now the victims are all gathered in the relief camp."
"Rescue camp?"
"Yes! Your Excellency, you may not know that this rescue camp was proposed by a lady. If it weren't for this rescue camp, the entire Qingshi Town would be filled with homeless refugees."
Ming Nanxuan seemed to be lost in thought. This trip to Qingshi Town was different from what he had initially thought. It was not as shocking as he had imagined. Everything was very peaceful.
"The main reason His Majesty sent me here is because of the natural disaster. You have done a great job. I will report this matter to His Majesty."
Yun Zhengming was overjoyed when he heard this, and immediately knelt down to express his gratitude, "Thank you for your kindness, sir. These are all my responsibilities!"
"Okay, we brought some disaster relief food with us this time. Use it first, and there will be more later."
After Ming Nanxuan finished speaking, he stood up and brushed the hem of his clothes with his bony hands, smoothing out the clothes that had become wrinkled from sitting.
"Take me to the rescue camp."
"Yes!"
Yun Zhengming got up, followed him and pointed the way for him.
I felt a little emotional in my heart. He was worthy of being His Highness. He had been traveling for more than half a month without even taking a break, and he was already concerned about the people as soon as he arrived.
Ming Nanluo, who was walking in front, had his mind full of thoughts not only about the situation of the disaster victims he wanted to see, but also about that interesting little woman.
Many houses in Qingshi Town have collapsed. I wonder where she is now? Has she been living in the house she used to live in?
----
At the rescue camp.
Gu Manzhu was wearing a dark-colored long-sleeved gown, with her hair tied up with a simple headband. She covered the birthmark on her forehead with ointment she made herself, and her originally fair and tender face was darkened several shades, making her look very light.
She is in the treatment camp because there is a shortage of doctors and medicines!
Her face was covered with a cloth. This was the first request she made when she arrived at the rescue camp.
All doctors and people who have the conditions should try to cover their faces with a towel.
Of course, there were quite a few people who opposed her, but Gu Manzhu did not argue with them.
It doesn’t matter whether she surrounds him or not, she is not the one who will die!
On the afternoon a few days ago when Senior Song had comforted her, the rain was getting heavier and heavier, and the river bank was finally unable to withstand the rising water level.
Finally, the flood rushed towards Qingshi Town like a roaring beast.
Because Shangshan Village is located at the highest point, Wang Bo asked all the villagers to make preparations in advance.
Apart from a few old houses being crushed by heavy rain, there were no casualties.
There were a few stubborn people who were very relieved when they heard the noise of the house collapsing. They knelt down to thank the Bodhisattva for his protection.
The other three villages, which were not prepared and were located in relatively low-lying areas, suffered many casualties due to collapsed houses and floods.
The three villages were in chaos.
Although their lives were saved, some of them had nowhere to go because their houses were flooded.
All of them poured into Qingshi Town.
Especially Xiashan Village where the entire village was flooded.
The villagers who escaped from Xiashan Village basically did not take anything with them except themselves.
In the face of great disaster, material possessions are not worth mentioning at all.
It was already very difficult for them to save their lives, and they had no way of getting anything.
But there was no food, clothing, shelter, and it was raining, so there was nowhere to go.
The dilapidated temples we encountered on the road were basically packed with people.
The head of Xiashan Village led the surviving villagers to think about it for half the night.
They decided to go to Qingshi Town to seek official positions, even if the county government ignored them.
The people in the town were relatively wealthy, so they could probably get some food by begging.
Then the group marched into Qingshi Town in the rain.
Among them were the original owner’s gambling father, shrewish mother, and that vain sister.
They are also lucky.
Their shabby straw house was the first to collapse.
He shamelessly went to the village and lived there for a few days, and then the flood came.
Escaped with the village head and his family.
He had no self-awareness at all that he was living under someone else's roof. When he heard that they had to go to Qingshi Town to find the county government office, he ran faster than anyone else.
The headman's son, Daniu's wife, looked at them and spat at them.
"What an ungrateful bastard! If my father-in-law hadn't been too embarrassed to refuse them, they would have frozen to death long ago."
Daniu took his wife's hand and patted it soothingly.
As a grown man, he was full of disgust towards their family, but there was nothing he could do.
In the past, they had a very sensible younger sister who would get up before dawn to wash clothes by the river.
After washing clothes, I went to the hillside to dig wild vegetables.
He also asked her why she was so busy every day.
The little girl grinned and said to him, "If I don't work, I won't have anything to eat."
