Carrying an important mission and everyone's expectations, the ocean-going fleet - the lunar probe set sail.

(Jiang Hetang's original purpose was to explore whether the moon overseas was round, hence the name "Lunar Exploration".)

This is an unprecedented exploration.

With the largest lunar probe as the center, dozens of large ships are spread around, sailing towards the direction of the rising sun in the dead of night.

I don’t know when I will be able to return, and of course, I don’t know if I can come back alive.

This was one of the few secret experimental projects during Jiang Hetang's administration, and even half of the officials in the court did not know about it.

At this time, some places in the Great Zhou were about to face an unprecedented famine.

"Wow!"

Jiang Hetang is performing the desktop cleaning technique.

"Bastard thing!"

"Bastard thing!!"

"check!"

"Check them all for me!"

Prime Minister Yuan and Lord Wen took the order and left.

The other ministers were left looking at each other in confusion, sweating profusely.

Who knew that the local officials in the northwest were so corrupt and raised taxes locally.

Especially when the emperor has issued an order to exempt all taxes this year, how dare you do this!

No wonder there was a riot in the Northwest.

Why don’t you be greedy for anything else? Why do you covet the trivial things in the hands of the people?

Everyone knows that the emperor values ​​the people the most.

I guess, either he is deceiving his superiors and subordinates, or he has someone above him.

Now, they will be investigated as well.

At the same time, Mingyue and her family were on their way to the Northwest.

Zhao Yunshan took the initiative to take on this job.

After all, this is a major matter of helping the people, and he would not feel at ease if someone else went.

What's more, most of the food here was bought by my daughter.

Lin Siyu also followed on the road.

Father Lin thought that for a boy, it would be good for him to look around and learn more. Besides, the child was very sincere and insisted on talking to the little princess about showing love and so on.

"Dad, Dad, where are we now?" Mingyue stuck her head out of the window and looked at the mountain with less and less vegetation, and she already had a guess in her mind.

"It's almost there. We'll soon reach our destination, Longcheng." Zhao Yunshan narrowed his eyes.

"Mingyue, thank you for your hard work along the way." Jiang Mengrou touched her little daughter's chapped face with heartache, and took out the pearl cream to apply on her.

Starting from the capital and heading west, the climate becomes increasingly dry, and this child insists on coming along to suffer. Alas.

Two brothers: Hmm? Mom, why don't you look at us? We're all so dark, and you haven't said anything?

Never mind, they are boys, so it’s okay if they are a little rough.

This line has been going on for more than a month.

The people of Longcheng don’t know how they are doing.

At that time, in Longcheng and several surrounding cities, the shops under the name of the Lin family had received orders from their master early on:

If there is a famine in the future, grain cannot be sold at high prices, but can only be sold at a reasonable price, and purchases must be limited. If the situation is critical, the granaries must be opened to release grain to help the people.

After all, in times of chaos, it is most likely that people will drive up the price of food.

The Lin family has no control over what happens to other grain shops, but at least they cannot make this fortune!

A few days ago, Mingyue and his group received a letter from the Lin family's servants while they were on the road, saying that all the nearby grain stores had no more food left.

Zhao Yunshan quickly adjusted the team's progress and sped up the pace.

Even though Mingyue was about to vomit from the shaking of the carriage, she gritted her teeth and endured it.

Finally, on the sixty-seventh day after leaving the capital.

They finally arrived in Longcheng.

As soon as I arrived at the city gate, I saw a group of soldiers guarding the gate with swords.

It’s not about preventing people outside from coming in, but about preventing people inside from going out!

Now the temporary local officials of Longcheng have reduced the number of refugees in such a simple and crude way, which can be regarded as a merit.

Fortunately, not only does the Lin family shop support them, but many people from other places also come to feed them some food every day.

Some have two eggs, some have a cabbage, some have a bag of flour...

In this way, the people of Longcheng, united as one, persevered in the hope that "the emperor will definitely come to rescue us."

Although many people still starved to death, it was much better than the scenes of famine in previous history.

The soldiers outside the city gate immediately spotted Zhao Yunshan, the armored leader, and shouted happily, "General Weiyuan is here! General Weiyuan is here!"

Everyone stood up. They had been waiting for the emperor to send someone to rescue them since a month ago.

Now, someone finally comes!

General Weiyuan!

Everyone in the Great Zhou Dynasty knew that he was the father of Princess Mingzhu, a brave and skilled general, and the brother-in-law of the current emperor.

Everyone forced themselves to stand up despite their weak bodies and looked in the direction of hope.

As the sound of horse hooves continued to arrive, their hearts began to beat rapidly.

The soldiers at the door lined up in two rows to welcome the general.

The people looked at the carts of food and swallowed their saliva.

But even though they were dizzy with hunger, no one stepped forward to grab the food. Everyone consciously maintained order, with tears in their eyes, because they were finally saved.

Lu Sheng, the temporary prefect of Longcheng, was cooking some thin hot porridge outside the government office. His face was pitch black, as if it had traces of charcoal.

"General Zhao! General Zhao! You're finally here!"

As he said this, he was about to come up and hug Zhao Yunshan's legs.

Zhao Yunshan dodged it.

He dismounted and asked everyone to start unloading the goods.

Looking at the long line of starving civilians following behind him, Zhao Yunshan felt a lump in his throat.

"Today, this general, along with his wife, daughter, and the young master of the Lin family's shop, is distributing food to everyone!"

"Every day, every household can come to the county government office to collect food according to the number of people. As long as everyone works together, we will be able to get through this!"

"well!!"

"Thank you General!"

"The emperor's grace is immense. Long live the emperor!"

The people cried out in pain and bowed down towards the capital.

Mingyue didn't care about the pain all over her body and immediately joined the army distributing food.

Jiang Mengrou couldn't stop her, so she could only ask her two sons to keep an eye on her.
