The First National Preceptor of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 1305

Xu Tian had only been in the disaster area for a short time when he discovered that the disaster victims were panicking and causing trouble.

After resting for a while, Xu Tian quickly stood in front of them.

"Calm down first. The imperial court is aware of your difficulties and has sent me here to help you." Xu Tian only wanted to reassure the disaster victims.

There was nothing he could do; the emotions of the disaster victims were far too unstable, and he was very worried.

After carefully looking at them from left to right, Xu Tian noticed that their clothes were quite worn, and the faces of the disaster victims were all deathly pale, indicating that they had not eaten enough.

After reading it, Xu Tian felt even more sorry for them.

"We've been suffering from disaster for so long, and only now has the imperial court sent someone over." They weren't particularly interested in listening to Xu Tian; instead, they felt aggrieved.

With one person leading the way, other disaster victims followed suit, describing their own miserable plight.

"Quiet down, all of you, and listen to what I have to say, okay?" Xu Tian shouted urgently, hoping they would calm down.

If they keep talking like that, there's nothing I can say.

But they weren't really interested in listening, and even wanted to take action against Xu Tian. They thought Xu Tian was just a corrupt official and wouldn't be of any use.

"I've been starving for days, and I haven't seen a single grain of food. What am I supposed to do? I have children and a family to support." He struggled to move forward, his heart filled with anguish.

He was clearly strong and healthy, but he couldn't do anything.

His suffering is nothing, the key is what will happen to his family and children. Is he just going to watch them die here?

"When will we be able to have a hot meal? Some time ago someone said they would handle this, but nothing happened. We don't believe you."

"Most of the officials sent by the imperial court were corrupt. They embezzled all the money, and then we had nothing left but to cry and wail."

......

Various voices rang out, and Xu Tian's expression kept changing.

Xu Tian wanted to say something to them, but he knew very well that the disaster victims couldn't hear him anymore, so it would be useless no matter what he said.

His most pressing need right now is to solve the food problem.

"When will the second batch of grain arrive?" Xu Tian turned around hurriedly and asked his subordinates behind him anxiously.

The disaster victims wanted to see tangible results, not his promises.

Therefore, he had to distribute the food to the disaster victims as quickly as possible.

"My lord, we should arrive soon." He didn't know the exact time either.

Coming to his senses, Xu Tian seemed lost in thought.

How should he comfort the disaster victims now?

"Why are you not daring to say a word now? Are you going to abandon us again? What should we do?"

Seeing that Xu Tian hadn't said anything, they assumed he was scared.

As they thought about it, they became even angrier and wanted to take action immediately.

While Xu Tian was still lost in thought, he was suddenly hit by something. Looking down, he realized it was something thrown by a disaster victim.

Xu Tian wasn't angry, but he felt a little upset, unsure how to explain things to the disaster victims. He had come to help them, but so far he hadn't been able to do anything.

"Smash him to death."

Before long, some disaster victims began to organize to smash Xu Tian.
