The powerful minister's palm is reborn

Chapter 64 No one can move you in the slightest

"I am ashamed of your Majesty and the people of Tongzhou." Wu Tongzhou knelt down and cried bitterly.

The food and grass he brought was far from enough to rescue these victims, and now that he lost so much, what would he use to explain to His Majesty and the people?

"My lord, do you want to give up when you encounter setbacks?" Tang Yisheng looked at Wu Tongzhou and said, "We are still alive. We must find a way to keep the people of Tongzhou City alive. We can't just accept our fate like this!"

"If we accept our fate, what will the ordinary people who are suffering from the disaster do?"

"My lord thinks that if I set foot in Tengning, can my lord retreat safely?"

Bai Qingyin asked back, then took Tang Yisheng's words and reminded Wu Tongzhou that now is not the time to care about who is right and who is wrong.

"What we have to do now is to find a way to raise food and grass to solve the urgent needs of the people!"

"Yes, yes, yes." Wu Tongzhou suddenly woke up, trembling.

"What we should do now is to raise food and grass."

"We have to find a way to raise food and grass." Wu Tongzhou quickly got up from the ground, and kept repeating in his mouth to raise food and grass, to raise food and grass.

Bai Qingyin and Tang Yisheng looked at each other, and immediately chased after Wu Tongzhou to stop him.

Wu Tongzhou was like a madman, babbling nonsense in his mouth: "grain, grain, grain."

I can't be sorry for the master's cultivation, the emperor's kindness, and I can't be sorry for the common people.I want food, I want food
Bai Qingyin and Tang Yisheng didn't expect Master Wu to go crazy, so they immediately asked, "Master Wu, where are you going? We should calm down now and think of a way."

As she said that, Bai Qingyin took out her own baggage and said, "Master Wu, I have money. When I even went out, I exchanged all the money on my body for gold and jewels to embroider on my clothes. We have silver, and we can Raise food again."

Fearing that Master Wu would not be able to take the blow, Bai Qingyin handed over the clothes she had been hiding in her baggage to Master Wu: "Master Wu, as long as the person is not dead, we cannot give up!"

Wu Tongzhou raised his eyes to look at Bai Qingyin, his muddy eyes gradually became clear, and his rapid breathing gradually recovered.
Sitting on the stone steps, Wu Tongzhou took a sip from the water bag offered by Bai Qingyin, lowered his head, and said in shame: "I've lived a long time, and I'm not as clear as a little girl like you."

There was a bitter smile on the corner of Bai Qingyin's lips: How can a person who has died once not be transparent?
"My lord, right now, we still have food. We can transport the food to the refugee camp first and distribute it to the victims."

After inspecting all the imperial grain, Tang Yisheng returned to Wu Tongzhou and reported: "In addition to the grain, we also have chaff. We can mix the chaff into the imperial grain for a period of time, and then we will replace the grain when the grain arrives. .”

"Sir, the chaff is for the cattle!"

Wu Tongzhou heard Tang Yisheng's words, and asked sharply: "If I let the common people eat chaff, how is it different from those who carelessly ignore human lives?"

"Sir, Mr. Wu has always respected you and trusted you, but now you have disappointed Mr. Wu." Wu Tongzhou was so angry that he spoke without distinction, and his words were full of humiliation.

Tang Yisheng was ashamed but tried his best to cover it up, and insisted on his point of view: "My lord, the food and grass they left for us won't last long!"

"The chaff they left behind is for me to use it on the victims." Wu Tongzhou looked at Tang Yisheng, and asked, "If I really gave the chaff to the common people, what would I become?"

He knew that the chaff was left to him on purpose.It was humiliating him, humiliating him.

"Your Excellency, don't deny my proposal so quickly." Tang Yisheng looked at Wu Tongzhou and suggested, "Let's go to the disaster camp and make a decision before it's too late."

……

After the flood, the refugee camp built by the Tongzhou government was simply not enough to accommodate the victims.

Outside the refugee camp, there were many mourners. The people's faces were blue, their clothes were poorly covered, and their bodies were swollen on a large scale.

Bai Qingyin got out of the carriage, and walked towards the refugee camp with Master Wu and others. The people were too hungry to walk, but when they saw someone walking towards them, they didn't know where the strength came from, and rushed to the refugee camp like crazy. They approach.

"My lord, please do me a favor. Give me something to eat!"

The pale-faced woman knelt in front of them with the child in her arms, and begged, "My lord, give the child what stutters! The child has been hungry for days, and if he doesn't stutter, he will starve to death."

"My lord, save us."

"My lord, save the child!"

In the face of hunger, in the face of life and death, they gave up their dignity and begged the people in front of them to give them food.

They want to live.

I want my child to live.

Wu Tongzhou heard the people wailing and pleading, crying, and tears instantly blurred his eyes.

He lifted his official uniform and knelt down on his knees: "Wu is sorry for the folks in Tongzhou. Wu lost the imperial food that His Majesty gave to Tongzhou for disaster relief."

"Wu is sorry to all the folks." He knelt and kowtowed in front of the common people to atone for his crime.

The victims survived the floods, gnawed bark, ate weeds, and the government also cooked porridge for disaster relief, but there were too many people, and the government couldn't help them at all. They hadn't eaten for a long time, and some of them had been killed alive. starving.

Now that they heard that there was no food, they didn't even have the energy to make a noise. They sat on the ground, closed their eyes, and looked like they were waiting to die.

"Fellow folks, Mr. Wu will never sit idly by. Mr. Wu will do his best to raise food. Please trust Mr. Wu." Wu Tongzhou bowed to the people.

This worship was bloody.

"My lord, hurry up and cook the porridge, they won't last long!" Tang Yisheng reminded immediately.

Wu Tongzhou didn't dare to delay at all, and immediately ordered someone to set up a pot to cook porridge.

Three kinds of porridge were cooked.

White rice porridge is fed to the woman.

Bran white rice porridge for adult men.

The meat bought from the market in the town next door was chopped up and cooked into lean meat porridge for the children.

They try their best to ensure that women, children and children pass this test, after all, men are physically strong.

The sight of the man devouring the rough porridge fell into the eyes of the little girl, and her eyes were red, tears bursting like a bank.

This is how hungry he is, he is so eager to eat even the rough bran that is difficult to swallow.

It's not that the court doesn't care about you, it's not that the king is ruthless, it's that some greedy, wolf-hearted beasts stole your food.

Those beasts that are not even as good as animals should be hacked into pieces!
Wu Tongzhou looked at them drinking porridge, with a bitter smile on the corner of his mouth, and his eyes were relieved.

Wu deserved to die for losing food and grass, and waited for Wu to figure out a way to raise food and grass to survive the disaster.

Wu will go to Beijing to sue, and blood will be splashed in the palace to thank the world.

Bai Qingyin looked up and saw the relieved expression on Wu Tongzhou's face, her heart was bleeding.

She finally understood why Mr. Wu did not defend himself during the thorough investigation by the court.

He wants to thank the world with his death, and he wants to use his own life to kill this trend of corruption.

The cold wind suddenly picked up, and the strong wind rolled up her skirt and flew all over the sky.She stepped into the crowd with an elegant figure and determination like a mountain, no matter how hard the wind and rain were, it could not shake her at all.

This time, I stand with you, and no one can touch you in the slightest.

"Master Wu said that we haven't done enough." Standing in the crowd, she raised her voice.
