Chapter 43
This was unthinkable in the past. Which natural disaster would not kill a whole village?
It would be great if a few Miao Miao survived!
When the people in all places were resettled and the officers and soldiers counted the number of people, it was discovered that only half of the people died in the worst village, and the casualties of the soldiers sent were less than one-fifth!
Rowood City.
"Oh, my ancestor, just go in and report!"
Li Junshou asked to see Shen Changan outside Shen Changan's house early in the morning, but he did not see her face until noon.
The flood has almost been arranged. Although the torrential rain is still falling, there is enough food in the cities of Rowood County, so there is no need to worry about the food problem.
What worried Li Junshou was the dam. Deputy Commander Mo acted vigorously and had almost checked the matter. When the dam was allocated 50 yuan, when it arrived in Luowu County, there were only 10,000+ left.
Sheriff Li was greedy for a fraction of the dam built with 20 yuan. He was neither the first nor the last one to be greedy. If the foremen under him sneaked a little more secretly, the real dam construction cost barely less than 20 yuan.
But the bad thing is Li Junshou's greed. The people above are powerful and powerful. Even if they have corrupted a lot of money, Emperor Xuan of Jin has to be concerned about the power behind them, and it is enough to punish them a little.
If there is a real need to be held accountable, the bottom foreman can't bear the responsibility, and he can't afford to pay. Doesn't the responsibility fall to Li Junshou?
Although Li Junshou came from the Li family in Yuzhou, he was just dawdling at home. If the interests of the family were involved, the family would abandon him immediately!
"Your Excellency, please go back," Liuli stood in front of the door, and said coldly with a small face, "My princess has ordered, no one will be seen!"
"Ouch!"
Li Junshou wanted to cry but had no tears, and there was a ring of blisters around his mouth.
He wanted to force his way in, if he could see the eldest princess, there was still a chance, but not far away were two imperial guards staring at him.
He... he is from the heart!
"Squeak-"
Just when Li Junshou was so anxious that he wished he could wipe his own neck, the door opened from the inside.
Li Junshou's eyes stared like copper bells, his eyes glowed, and he was just a shovel away from kneeling in front of Shen Changan.
"What is Mr. Li's business with me? But what's wrong with the common people?"
As soon as Shen Changan opened his mouth, he asked the people, which made Governor Li feel ashamed.
Damn him!
How could they have embezzled the money for building the dam by being obsessed with ghosts!
"this and that……"
Governor Li faltered and evasive, not daring to look Shen Changan in the eye.
Shen Chang'an stayed up all night and wanted to yawn, but she held back and looked at Li Junshou with fiery eyes, "Your Majesty Li, if you have something to say, you may as well just say it, I don't have time to waste time here with you."
With this time, she might as well go to bed.
These words were very blunt, but Li Junshou didn't dare to say anything, his heart sank, and he recited his organized words coyly.
After that, he turned his head away from Shen Changan's expression, as if he was waiting for the final judgment.
The torrential rain was a little lighter, but it was still falling. At some point, a crow built a nest under the eaves. A crow as big as two palms poked its head out of the nest and screamed at Li Junshou.
Governor Li: "..."
unlucky!
Another day will lift your nest, pull out the hair, and shake the eggs apart!
"What does Master Li think?"
"Eldest Princess, I'm guilty..."
Shen Changan interrupted him: "I know you are guilty, I am asking, what do you think?"
Li Junshou was dumbfounded, his brows were furrowed, as if he was thinking hard.
Shen Changan was speechless, and directly put the words on the bright side: "Master Li was not the only one who corrupted and built the dam back then, not to mention the top big shots, just take Yuzhou governor Feng Guangbai as an example, twice as many as you. "
"Although Mr. Li was at fault, he did his best in this disaster relief work. In the past, he loved the people like a child, so that the people of Luowu County can live and work in peace and contentment. This palace feels that Mr. Li can make up for his merits and demerits."
"What does Master Li think?"
"Yes, yes," Li Junshou nodded frantically, "What the eldest princess said is that I have always loved the people like a child and worked hard. What happened ten years ago, I was confused for a while."
After saying this, Li Junshou didn't blush at all.
"Then since Master Li is not at fault, I would like to ask you, who should be responsible for this crime?"
Who will bear?
It's not me anyway.
This was Junshou Li's first thought.
He was finally smart for a while, and the name "Feng Guangbai" popped up in his mind.
The eldest princess mentioned him, maybe she wanted to...
Li Junshou flattered and filled with righteous indignation: "I will report to the princess, I believe that the fault lies with Mr. Feng, the assassin."
A dead fellow is not a poor one, Mr. Feng, you can save yourself, and I will burn three sticks of incense for you during the holidays.
[Feng Guangbai: Having you is my blessing. 】
[Hahaha, it should be "with you, I am really convinced". 】
Shen Chang'an held back his laughter, and spoke righteously: "Deputy Commander Mo has already collected the evidence of Feng Guangbai's corruption. When I return to Beijing, I will present the evidence. At that time, I hope Master Li will come forward to testify."
"Yes Yes Yes……"
Junshou Li wiped off his sweat, looked around furtively, and said furtively: "Princess, I have other evidence of Mr. Feng's crime, look..."
Shen Changan: ()
She smiled and said: "Master Li is worthy of being a good official of the Jin Dynasty. When I return to the capital, I will make an apology for Master Li in front of my father."
Master Li is as keen as a dog when he is promoted to the official position. Hearing the words, his eyes lit up, and he pretended to be modest and said: "This is a matter of the minister's duty. Why don't you ask for credit? It is the duty of the minister. I will definitely do my best."
"Oh, if that's the case," Shen Changan said with a half-smile, "Then this Palace will save you some effort. Since Mr. Li likes this place, there is no need to move it."
Sheriff Li: "!!!"
Why don't you play your cards according to the routine!
"Pfft--"
Everyone present except Sheriff Li laughed, and Shen Changan patted Sheriff Li's...left arm like a little adult.
No way, I'm not tall enough to take a shot on my shoulder.
She said in a mature tone: "Xiao Li, do a good job, a promotion and salary increase are waiting for you."
... Li Junshou's mother tongue today is speechless.
After sending off Sheriff Li, Shen Changan asked Liuli to bring her a meal, simple porridge and side dishes, and Shen Changan ate everything.
Liuli looked at her princess distressedly, although she didn't know what the princess was doing in the house, but she was so tired, it must not be a good job.
"Princess, slow down. The servants will go to the kitchen and ask them to make some snacks and put them in the house... If you don't make complicated ones, just make some sweet-scented osmanthus cakes and rice cakes."
Ever since he came to Luowu City, Shen Changan asked his servants to cook only one staple food plus one meat and one vegetable every day, as long as they were full, cakes and fruits were not included in the recipes.
The highest status in Luowu City is nothing more than that, and other officials and wealthy families are eager to follow suit, and some people send surplus food to temporary residences outside the city and donate it to the people for free.
The first person to do this, the people behind were not to be outdone, and for a while, the wind of comparison prevailed.
