Old Man Hua was silent.
Although he has never seen the doomsday scene of flooding and vast oceans.
But at the end of the Sui Dynasty, the world was in chaos and hungry people were everywhere. He had personally experienced it.
people! When you are extremely hungry, you are no longer a human being...but a beast dominated by your own nature!
In order to have a bite to eat, they would give away their wives and children without hesitation, even if they watched them being cooked and turned into a piece of meat in the pot.
And in order to prevent themselves from being hungry any longer, they dared to do anything that they had never even dared to think about before!
As Xiao Han said before, if someone dares to give alms in a disaster area, countless victims will immediately come after hearing the news and completely drown this "good man"!
This is not alarmist, but something that will actually happen!
"This matter is difficult to handle!"
After a long time, Old Man Hua let out a sigh of relief and looked at Xiao Han with a worried expression.
At first, he thought that as long as there was food, things in the disaster area would be solved immediately.
But now it seems that this is not the case.
"This matter is said to be difficult to handle, but it is actually easy to handle!"
At this moment, Xiao Han didn't have the same worries as Old Man Hua. He smiled and turned behind Old Man Hua. While lightly tapping Old Man Hua's shoulder, he said: "When we get to the place, we will immediately send people to contact the surrounding areas! Let those Those who are qualified can join us in giving porridge! This will prevent disaster victims from gathering in one place and reduce the number of disasters."
"Let them give porridge together from all over the place?" However, when Old Man Hua heard this, his brows furrowed even more tightly: "Are they willing?"
"No?" Xiao Han grinned, showing his sharp white teeth and said: "At that time, it will be up to them to decide whether they are willing or not! Don't you think Liu Hongji followed me just for fun?"
"Hiss... you want to use weapons?"
Although he had expected this in his heart, Old Man Hua couldn't help but take a breath when he heard these words coming from Xiao Han's mouth. He turned around and stared at his precious apprentice.
"I don't want this either! And if they are obedient, there will naturally be no disaster of ruining the family!" Xiao Han smiled softly, but for some reason, his young face was illuminated by the flickering oil lamp. He looked a bit ferocious at this moment!
In fact, Xiao Han knew that this was not a good job before setting off! I am not the most suitable candidate either!
Otherwise, Li Shimin would not have hesitated. In the end, he volunteered himself to take over the job.
Shandong has produced heroes since ancient times, and Hebei also has many generous and tragic people.
What's even more terrible is that of these two places, one is a sacred place of Confucianism and authentic Taoism. They have always been somewhat dismissive of Li Shimin who came to seize the throne.
The other one, after Dou Jiande's death, became incompatible with Xiao Lizi today.
At the beginning of his ascension to the throne, Li Shimin was in a laissez-faire state with regard to these two headaches, and wanted to use time to heal the gap between them!
But this flood really caught Li Shimin off guard!
As the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, Li Shimin was not afraid of natural disasters!
Because no matter how big the disaster is, there is always time to get through it!
What he is afraid of are some people in the dark corners!
These people have no ability to lead an army or govern a country, but they have the ability to add fuel to the flames and fish in troubled waters!
Li Shimin is confident that if the two armies confront each other, these clown-like existences will definitely not be his enemies!
But the problem is that these things are hidden in the darkness and cannot be easily revealed, and there is no way to trace their whereabouts!
This time, in order to prevent these people from taking advantage of the chaos again, he once again messed up the country that he had finally stabilized.
Li Shimin made a decree long ago, asking Cheng Yaojin, Qin Shubao and others to secretly pay attention to abnormal situations. If they find any, they would rather kill them! Don’t let it go!
However, although these fierce generals were stationed in Shandong and Hebei, Li Shimin was still worried because Lao Cheng and others were originally members of the Shandong gentry!
And those poisonous weed-like guys have already penetrated into the Shandong nobles! When the time comes, will they turn a blind eye to these poisonous weeds due to family reasons? Or should we say it’s an open-minded approach?
Li Shimin himself didn’t have much confidence!
Therefore, he wanted someone who was not a Shandong military general to inspect the disaster area for him. Once he found something was wrong, he would make an immediate decision to eliminate the disaster invisible.
For a person like this, Li Shimin's first choice was the executioner Hou Junji.
But this guy was kicked to Gaochang by him last year. Now he is having a fierce fight with Ju Wentai, the king of Gaochang Kingdom, and there is no way he can come back.
As for the second candidate, it is Hei Tantou Yuchi Jingde!
But Li Shimin didn't know that this murderer who had killed countless people had become crazy recently.
He actually put down the knife in his hand, put on his cassock, and devoted himself to practicing Buddhist scriptures every day. It is said that in order to worship the Buddha, he even stopped drinking wine and eating meat.
Is such a person still the invincible general he was before the battle?
Apart from these two candidates, the remaining people such as Li Jing, Chai Shao, Changsun Shunde and others are now in a state of semi-retirement.
As for Xue Rengui and other young men in the army, they lack sufficient qualifications and reputation, and may find it difficult to control the situation if they fail.
In the end, after all the calculations, Xiao Han, the general of the Seventeenth Guards who was not the best candidate, became the tall man out of his thick skin.
Liu Hongji, who had been free from work all day, was sent on this disaster relief trip.
"Refugee, refugee!" As he muttered this word softly, Xiao Han suddenly smiled bitterly.
Tonight, those Luoyang gentry paid for their food so simply. It must be that the refugees had a lot to do with it!
If all the refugees from the lower reaches crowded into Luoyang City, then these Luoyang nobles would be worried.
As an official, my favorite thing is to provide relief to the victims of disasters in my family.
Because this can not only build a good reputation for caring for the people like a son, but also allow many accounts to be prevaricated quietly!
This is also the safest and safest way to settle the accounts. Even when you get to the Jinluan Palace, you can tell the emperor with all your heart that the food was eaten by the victims! If you don’t believe me, open their stomachs and take a look!
Similarly, the thing I dislike most about being an official is to help other people's victims!
Because those foreigners can bring nothing but disease! And in order to feed them, officials must use official grain silos.
And with this move, all the people in the city will explode!
We are not willing to eat the things we have worked so hard to save, so why should we give them to those beggars outside?
