After dressing up as the wife of the hero of the imperial examination, I ran away

After distributing all the food to the people, Gu Jingcheng stared at the other government soldiers left behind by Chen Yulian to build shanties for the people and give the people a temporary residence.

After a day of hard work, it was already late at night when I returned to my resting place.

Although Su Xiaomu can't do much, but thinking of himself as a companion, he runs around with Gu Jingcheng all day long.

Originally, her heart was filled with pity for the common people, but when she was really exhausted, only the word "rest" was left in her head at night.

She returned to the room and fell asleep on the bed, but perhaps because her body was tired, her head was dizzy, and she couldn't store up all her energy. When it was time to lie on the bed and have a good rest, she started to feel hungry again.

There was no way, Su Xiaomu resigned himself to his fate and got up from the bed amidst his stomach growling. He thought about going to the kitchen to get some steamed buns to eat, to get through the night first, and then eat some hot ones tomorrow.

It's just that she had just come downstairs when she vaguely saw a familiar figure from behind on the chair on the first floor, and went up to have a look, it was Gu Jingcheng sitting here.

Gu Jingcheng's complexion looks very bad now, he looks very weak, his face is pale and bloodless, his brows are slightly frowned, his lips are pale, he looks like a person who has lost his spirit.

"It's not the first time I've killed someone. In order to get what I want, I've gone to the torture chamber to torture others before, but this is the first time I've used such vicious means to take a person's life. Most people are selfish. Yes, when I killed that Chen Yulian, I had three parts for the common people and seven parts for myself."

Gu Jingcheng saw that it was Su Xiaomu who came, and he immediately lost seventy percent of his strength, making him look even weaker.

"I am the special envoy sent by His Majesty. If I want to make a name for myself in Jiangnan, I must step on Chen Yulian's head. In fact, after thinking about it, he lost his nature due to power struggles in the capital. He couldn't blame himself for the mistakes, and today... I am not as open-minded as I keep saying."

Gu Jingcheng tugged on Su Xiaomu's sleeve, revealing his weak side rarely.

"How can I blame you? As a parent official, Chen Yulian did not fulfill his duty of guarding the people. This is his own fault. Although the victims suffered so much because of Chen Yulian, I can also I understand that they resisted the imperial power in order to survive, but in fact everyone made mistakes, and you have done a good job."

Su Xiaomu leaned Gu Jingcheng's head in her arms, and she gently stroked his hair, comforting him again and again: "You did nothing wrong, the common people are forced by the common people, and Chen Yulian also has the reason why he became what he is now. , and you can maintain the order in Jiangnan in such a short period of time, you have done a good job. Although I don't want to see you kill people, because blood loses your nature, but within the scope of what you can do, everyone will suffer. No fault of yours."

When Su Xiaomu talked about Chen Yulian, his gaze was cold and devoid of any warmth: "This is a man who pays attention to a degree, and acts according to the degree. It is impossible to break the rules and not shrink back. I am not a scholar. How can you have nothing to do with the fact that those who are helpless? You have never been a person who makes things difficult for yourself, so there is no need to think too much about this matter. "

"Is it because I'm on the edge of my head?" Gu Jingcheng raised his head blankly, "But the common people are pitiful..."

"Who is easy in this world? The people are suffering because of the floods, and you came here because of the power struggle. We only need to be worthy of our hearts in the future, finish the disaster relief work well, and repair the collapsed dams. I have to mention something to you."

When Su Xiaomu came back just now, he heard a disaster victim coughing on the side of the road, so he suddenly thought of this.

"What's the matter?" Gu Jingcheng raised his eyes, "Could it be something wrong with the food for disaster relief?"

The food distribution has just started today, and the food is enough for several months, so there shouldn't be any problems, right?

But if it's not food, what should Su Xiaomu mention to him specifically?
Gu Jingcheng was suspicious, and then became more and more uneasy.

"No, when I came back today, I heard someone coughing on the side of the road, saying that after a major disaster, there must be a major epidemic, just like I told you during the snow disaster before, we must put the prevention and control of the epidemic on the charter. When you start asking the victims to build dikes and dams in the future, remember to tell them to drink the herbal medicine that will strengthen their bodies every day. In this critical period, you absolutely dare not have the slightest desire for luck."

What Su Xiaomu was most afraid of was the plague.

This flood disaster is much more terrifying than the snow disaster. The flood is rolling in, and it does not know how many germs it carries along the way.

In the south of the Yangtze River, there were countless casualties due to floods, and there was no way to deal with the bodies of the dead in the past. If they were exposed to the sun after the floods, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Su Xiaomu's face turned cold, and he and Gu Jingcheng explained all the stakes.

Naturally, Gu Jingcheng understood the truth, he didn't dare to bet on the huge Jiangnan, nor did he dare to bet on the epidemic.

"Tomorrow... I will ask someone to find a doctor to make medicine."

Gu Jingcheng put away his fragile heart, and he regained his strength to plan for the future of the people.

The epidemic must never happen. Jiangnan has already suffered a catastrophe. If there is another epidemic, Da Chen will really be in chaos.

The construction of the dam went smoothly, and the victims had enough to eat. The next step is of course to rebuild their homes. The first step in rebuilding their homes is to ensure that the dams will not collapse due to the flood.

All the people in Jiangnan who were still able to move were divided into three teams. The first team was responsible for cleaning the streets of Jiangnan and cleared out the places that had not been cleaned up in time.

The second team is responsible for setting up temporary housing for the victims and maintaining order during the daily porridge distribution.

The third team followed Gu Jingcheng to build the dam. The officials and the people worked together, and no one was lazy. Everyone worked very hard to contribute to the reconstruction of Jiangnan.

And ever since the dam was built, Su Xiaomu had hardly seen Gu Jingcheng.

Except for the two of them going out for dinner together in the morning, Gu Jingcheng came back very late every day.

Su Xiaomu originally wanted to make soup for him to nourish his body. After all, Gu Jingcheng was only a civil servant, and it was still too difficult for him to build the embankment.

But the conditions in Jiangnan are such that if Gu Jingcheng drinks body-replenishing soup every day, it will inevitably make other people jealous, so Su Xiaomu can only put this plan on hold. While looking for her caravan in Jiangnan City, she is always Let the people under your hands pay attention to the epidemic situation.
