Chapter 475
These people are already content, they were able to escape early without losing their lives, which is much better than other villages.

Apart from the fact that the house is gone, everyone is fine, the Lu family also gave up all the tents they bought in advance, and most of the things in the house can still be used after being pulled out, so what else can they ask for?

It's just that the plan to build a house has to be postponed. From the third day after the earthquake, the rain in the sky has not stopped.

Even though they desperately want to rebuild their homeland, they can only look up at the sky and sigh.

God is not strong, who can do it?

Lu Qingjiang, who is far away in Huima County, is also in a hurry. Although the county under his jurisdiction is not within the scope of Qing Province, it is very close to Qing Province. The aftermath of the earthquake can still be felt in Huima County, although it is not strong.

Lu Qingjiang was sitting in his bedroom, his hands were tightly clenched, his eyes were red, it looked like he hadn't rested for a long time.

Such a big earthquake happened in his hometown, how could he rest well?He hadn't slept for two consecutive nights, afraid that he would dream about bad things when he closed his eyes.

Now that he doesn't know the situation at home, how can Lu Zhongjiang feel at ease?Fortunately, it didn't take long for the police from the county government to find out that Beichi County was not seriously affected, so Lu Qingjiang was slightly relieved.

Alas, he really wanted to run home for a while, but he was completely bound by a layer of skin in Huima County. He could only hope in his heart that his parents and everyone in the Lu family were safe and sound.

Lu Qingjiang stood up and went to the window to look at the gloomy sky, as if he wanted to see his home through the thick clouds, thinking silently of his son's unfilial piety, he couldn't go home immediately for such a big matter.

……

Looking at the sky and Xiaoqi at the same time, it has rained for two days in a row, the girl has watched the rain for two days in a row, with a sad face on her face.

The rain doesn't look like it's about to stop, everything is just like in her dream, how can Xiao Qi be happy?
I sincerely hope that the rain will be lighter, and it is better to stop. It has been raining for two days and two nights, and if it continues to rain, there will really be floods.

Stop falling, hurry up and slow down, rain.

Xiao Qi prayed silently in her heart.

Although I know that her prayers are of little use.

After all, this is an irreversible disastrous weather, and her luck is too small compared to this.

The earthquake already explained the problem, and she worked hard, but the earthquake still happened as usual.

It's just that compared with the scene in her dream, the Beichi County side seems to be lighter than the tragic image in the dream.

Other places didn't have such good luck. According to the news, Xiao Qi learned that even Beichuan County in Lin County had a much worse disaster than Beichi County.

Xiaoqi didn't know whether it was due to the efforts of the mountain god grandfather, or her prayers in her heart played some role.

Except for Qingyun Village, although there were casualties in every village, the proportion was indeed much smaller.

Most people escaped ahead of time, but the houses that should have been collapsed were still collapsed.

After all, those mud houses are indeed very fragile.

There were even fewer casualties in towns and counties, and their life was easier than that of ordinary people in the countryside.

The houses were built more firmly, and there were really not many houses that collapsed.

In the past few days, thanks to the hard work of the county magistrate and the efforts of every village chief, Beichi County has temporarily returned to normal.

It's just that things have just returned to normal, and the rain is coming again, which is not at all reassuring.

"Huh" seems to be slightly smaller than the previous heavy rain.

It shouldn't be his previous prayer that worked.

……

京都
The Golden Luan Hall, which had been away from court for a few days, was finally full of people today.

"...Your Majesty, the disaster situation in Qing Province is imminent. The earthquake caused two counties to be almost flattened, and other prefectures and counties were also affected. Now manpower, material resources, food and medicine, etc. are all urgent matters. Please make a decision as soon as possible. "

General Secretary Liu Yuan reported the disaster situation in Qing Province to the current Holy Majesty with a serious face.

Today's majesty looked at the civil and military officials in the high hall with a gloomy expression.

He was in a good mood when he heard the bad news early in the morning.

Today's sage turned to Grand Master Qin who stood in the chief position.

"Grand Master Qin, what's Aiqing's opinion?"

Grand Master Qin: "Your Majesty, just as Mr. Liu, the Minister of General Affairs, said, the disaster is imminent. Your Majesty should hurry up and send people."

"Where is the Secretary of the Ministry of Household?" "Where is the Secretary of the Ministry of War?" The emperor said coldly.

"Your Majesty, the old minister is here." Sun Yingliang, the head of the household department, hurried out.

"Your Majesty, the old minister is here." Meng Dong, the head of the Ministry of War, came out.

Today's majesty looked at the two with frowning eyes, and said, "Meng Dong, quickly dispatch [-] soldiers to support Qing Province, and send an order to the governors of the provincial governments near Qing Province to send troops to support. Prepare food, grass and other supplies every day, and go out with the army."

Meng Dong, Shangshu of the Ministry of War, was overjoyed when he heard the news. When the news came yesterday, he was still worried, afraid that the emperor would not go to court?

It has been many years since such a tragic disaster occurred in Dasang, and the rescue operation is really urgent.

It's okay, it's okay, today, when the adults like them went to court, the court finally opened.

Quickly said: "Yes, the old minister obeyed."

Sun Yingliang, Minister of the Household Department, knelt in the court hall with a bitter face.

"My lord, I'm afraid there is not enough grain and grass. This year's new grain has not been fully harvested. As for the grain storage, there is not much in the grain warehouse." Speaking of this, the Minister of the Household Department quickly turned his eyes to Grand Master Qin.

"Bang" the emperor was furious when he heard the words.

"What do you mean there is not much? How did you become the secretary of the household department? Why is there no food?"

"Your Majesty, forgive me! I really don't blame the old minister. Although there is a lot of grain turned over to the state treasury every year, the demand is even greater."

"Your Majesty, there are only tens of thousands of soldiers on the frontier, and the annual demand for food and grass is not a small amount, not including the provinces and government, but also to build military supplies, court officials' money, etc. must come from the Ministry of Households, veteran Really tried my best."

Hubu Shangshu's words made the eyes of the officials below sparkle.

Even if the Hubu Shangshu sells badly, no one under them will believe it.

No money, no food, how could it be possible, not to mention that the taxes paid every year are completely enough to support all the expenses of Dasang Kingdom.

The state-monopoly of distiller's yeast, iron, copper, money houses... and a series of incomes are very considerable every month. How is it possible to have no money and no food?

They just want to hehe... If possible, they really want to spit on this shameless Hubu Shangshu.

"How do you become the secretary of the household department? I don't want to hear about these things. In short, you have two days to prepare all the food, supplies, etc., or you will come to see me." The emperor said angrily.

Speaking of this, the emperor glared at Grand Master Qin, who was standing at the top, with a very ugly expression on his face.

The frightened Grand Master Qin was taken aback, and quickly stood up straight.

Don't think that he is in the harem all day long and doesn't know about Qin Taishi's tricks.

The emperor is not really incompetent, but he is just impatient to manage the affairs of the government. He is aware of every move of the ministers under him. Eyes closed.

The emperor subconsciously forgot that half of the monthly silver from the household department would go into his private treasury.

The Minister of the Household Department said bitterly: "Yes, the old minister obeys the order."

The military supplies for [-] soldiers and rescue supplies made the Minister of the Household Department sweat coldly.

Although he has embezzled a lot, relatively speaking, the Taishi and the others have benefited the most.

After dealing with some other matters, the current Holy Majesty couldn't bear to sit in the court anymore, and announced his retirement!
After retiring from the imperial court, the minister of household affairs outside the palace hurriedly caught up with Grand Master Qin.

With a bitter face, he said: "Master Grand Master, you want to save this officer this time, where does this officer have so much money to prepare supplies, you know..."

"Okay, I got it. I'll ask the housekeeper to send 5000 taels of silver later." The remaining words of Shangshu Hubu were interrupted by Grand Master Qin.

"Where is the 5000 taels..." Mr. Shang Shu was interrupted by Grand Master Qin before he finished speaking.

"Okay, don't talk about it, go back, I know you can take out the money, and it's the best of humanity to be able to produce these 5000 copies of the Grand Master, so don't push further." Qin Taishi said with a gloomy face.

If it weren't for seeing that the Minister of the Household Department was still useful and could provide him with silver, he wouldn't even have given out a single copper coin.

5000 taels of silver can buy a lot of food, and the Minister of the Household Department has been greedy enough for these years.

After saying these things, Grand Master Qin left with a flick of his sleeves, got on the sedan chair of Grand Master's mansion, and left quickly.

Hubu Shangshu looked at the figure of the grand master leaving, and spat angrily.

The attitude of bowing down and begging for help is completely gone.

 Ask for a monthly pass, a monthly pass, a monthly pass. (*︶*).. .:*
