Chapter 619 My mother...( Update for the end of summer)

"Good times are always too short, and happiness leaves in a blink of an eye..." Ma Chao stood in the imperial garden and felt that the vitality at the bottom of the earth was rising, and his mood was sighing for a moment.

The auction is over. Thanks to the wonderful performance, Ma Chao has attracted millions of gold, which is no less than those stars in later generations. However, although it sounds like a million, it is only hundreds of thousands of stones. Even if Ma Chaoqian urged the Li family and the Guan family to try their best to buy those cheap food that could be used to save their lives, it was only exchanged for another month and a half of food in the Sili area.

The Ma family's current grain storage work is almost done. According to Meng Da's estimate, the Ma family has stored enough food and fodder for all disaster victims for four months. If the disaster is particularly serious or lasts for a long time, the Ma family needs to find another way to make a living: die with the victims, or simply give up the victims in the Sili area...

However, at present, it seems that the administrative structure of the Ma family is very reasonable and efficient. The emergency response to the emergency incident is also in place: tube trucks and rollovers have been placed, and many places with abundant waters have been selected outside Chang'an City, and many new wells have been built; next to the military camp, shacks and simple residences have been built. If the earthquake really comes, it can temporarily accommodate hundreds of thousands of disaster victims. Finally, When the Ma family came to the locust disaster, they did not consume much grain and grass. In that year, the Ma family could survive smoothly. Although it is a little difficult, with the backing of Yongzhou, Sili can quickly recover.

Ma Chao prays that history can let go of the Ma family. He hopes that the disaster-prone people can suffer less. At present, everything seems to be good.

Feeling the warmth gradually brought by the wind, Ma Chao rarely has such a relaxing moment. He watched the breeze blowing the green seedlings of the earth grow slowly, the sycamore willow trees in the imperial garden sprouting again, and the sugar water drawn from the moat being wrinkled out of the waves, and his mood became more and more peaceful, like a philosopher feeling the mystery of life.

However, when his keen eyes saw the small creatures jumping like ants on the ground, his face suddenly turned pale and his blood faded: locusts appeared too early and too many...

And the subsequent series of events almost made Ma Chao have little time to react. The whole Ma family seems to have entered the stage of emergency disaster relief for a while.

Spring, the first month, Jia Yin Shuo, there is a solar eclipse. General Chang'an issued an amnesty to pardon those prisoners sentenced to prison for the war, so as to offset the fear of the people of Sili about the solar eclipse.

February, Ding Chou, Chang'an earthquake. Countless houses have been pitted, and thousands of people have been killed, injured and displaced. Fortunately, the Propaganda Department of the Ma Family Court Ceremony Department publicized the earthquake knowledge and avoided rescue in advance, and Ma Jiajun rushed to the rescue site as soon as possible, so that the people of Beijing did not have a greater riot. However, since then, some rumors have gradually spread in the streets and alleys of Chang'an.

In April, there was wind and heavy rain and hail. Its size is like a chicken, people and animals are unavoided, and the harvest is greatly affected. However, although the disaster loss was within the tolerance of the Ma family, and the Fufeng area was extremely loyal and trusted to the Ma family, strangely, rumors in the Jingshi area surged again.

In May, Wu Yin, Chang'an earthquake again. This earthquake is more serious than the February earthquake. There are few buildings in the Beijing area. Tens of thousands of Li Concubine had no choice but to hide in the emergency shelter next to the Ma family's barracks to receive relief. Since then, rumors of the Ma family's virtuous and stealing treasure land began to spread to the army... What's more serious is that the earthquake collapsed the outer wall of the Weiyang Palace. The people of Chang'an were shocked to find that the once magnificent palace that they were proud of were only vast and desolate open space.

And this discovery made rumors in Chang'an even more popular. All the victims had no gratitude for the Ma family and began to fight against the Ma family. Even many scholars committed suicide in front of the Weiyang Palace to show their loyalty to the Han Dynasty. After that, they gradually evolved into disaster victims, preferring to starve to death than accept a trace of relief from the Ma family!

The whole Ma family seemed to fall into the tide of the people's war in the blink of an eye, and was submerged so much that they didn't even have the strength to breathe...

Ma Chao didn't expect this. Although he has also used rumors to disrupt the enemy's petty tricks, he always believes that rumors stop at wise men, especially in the face of powerful government and military organizations. But he never thought that those false and real rumors that even some bullshit could not stand would make the Ma family so passive!

"What kind of bullshit rumors these are!!" Ma Chao's eyes were red. When the situation in Chang'an was already exhausted, he no longer had a trace of prestige, like a mad dog roaring manic: "What a three-eyed god has come down to earth. God is going to collect human life tax. The little boy has seven strange red moles on the soles of his feet, and the butcher of Zhangjiabao cut to death. There is a big snake, wait, wait. Did the Ma family build a shadow just to investigate these for me?!"

At this time, Ma Chao realized the horror of rumors. And its terrible thing is that the person concerned is clear and innocent but can't refute it at all. Moreover, the so-called three-person market tiger, rumors often spread and go out of shape. In the end, not to mention the parties involved, even the founder of the rumors are likely to believe it, not to mention those people who don't know a single big word...

"husband..." Diao Chan picked up the green silk on the temples, and the round voice in the past also became hoarse because of these days of hard work. However, in the face of Ma Chao's anger, she still tried to show a calm and charming smile and said, "The situation is still under control, and the shadow of the Ma family is not just a dry meal organization..."

"cicada, I know your feelings for the shadow. However, this is the point..." Ma Chao sat by the bedside and covered his head painfully: "I'm not blaming the shadow for doing things unfavorable, but..." Speaking of this, Ma Chao doesn't know what to say. I thought I was ready to be foolproof. But now Ma Chao is sad to find that he is wrong. He is not only facing the hard rescue of the disaster, but also has to guard against the stormy and unbreakable rumors.

To be honest, although Shadow has had anti-reconnaissance training since its establishment, those training courses have only been left alone by the outline listed by Ma Chao. Shadow has performed well enough in intelligence, assassination and other aspects. Now in this battlefield without gunpowder smoke, it seems that he has been beaten without fighting back. The fault is not in the shadow, but in himself... In other words, the Ma family has no way to fight back.

"Husband!" Seeing Ma Chao's decadent appearance, Diao Chan seemed to forget his humility as the daughter-in-law of the Ma family. Facing Ma Chao, the god of war who was powerful on the battlefield, she caught up, picked up Ma Chao's collar, and also roared, "The cheap concubine said that the situation is still under control!! The shadow of the Ma family and the cicada are not as useless as you think!!"

Ma Chao was instantly conquered by the supreme queen of Diao Chan. In the sound of Diao Chan's scolding and scolding, Ma Chao's brain was dizzy. He vaguely saw that behind Diao Chan, it seemed to shine, as indestructible as Athena...

After Diao Chan's gaffe at this moment, he saw Ma Chao's shocked and unbelievable look and immediately realized how shocking his behavior was. He couldn't help smoothing Ma Chao's collar, retreating, and said in panic, "My husband, my concubine is a bad wife..."

"No, cicada, I suddenly feel that you look like a person." Ma Chao suddenly smiled. After this episode, his mood turned over for a moment and regained his fighting spirit.

"Who is it?" Diao Chan was still reproachful and subconsciously asked.

"My mother..."
