The next day, when the sky was slightly bright, the figure of Bai Shaoqing's patrol was already wandering in the center of the gate.

Under the light sunlight, the current situation of the victims is even more worrying. The lifeless faces, her cheeks were deep, her forehead was black, and her dry lips were cracked with a gray flesh color, which made her heart ache.

Most people lie motionless on the mud, with their parents protecting their children, and their husbands protecting their wives and children, relying on each other and leaning against each other. Dense tents have been built on both sides of the flat slope, and the exhausted soldiers also snuggle up to the tents and sleep.

She walked carefully among the crowd. Every step she stepped on and lifted it up, she was afraid of disturbing these people who could finally sleep at ease. But even so, her skirt still brushed a person's arm. The man muttered, but after opening his eyes, he was shocked. He stared at the white figure who was slowly walking away, but he didn't know Where did the strength come from? Suddenly, he got up and shouted, "Master!"

Bai Shaoqing stopped because of his shouting. Looking back, he saw that more and more people around him woke up one after another. Seeing that it was her, they all bent down and worshipped. She hurried to help her, and she couldn't help so much. What's more, when most people saw her hand reaching out, they moved back in panic, as if they were afraid of getting her dirty.

Bai Shaoqing couldn't do it. He just comforted them a few words and asked about the sick patient's situation. Her gentle voice contained pity and kindness. Everyone looked up at her. Although it was so close, she still had a respectful look for the gods. The people she had comforted with her slender hands were even more grateful.

After a while, Yan Lin hurriedly came. He brought bad news. Those scholars in Ningcheng asked to meet the national teacher, but their attitude was arrogant and stubborn. Thinking of the sharp eyes of many people, Yan Lin was very uneasy.

Bai Shaoqing re-implemented the arrangements outside the city and ordered everyone to live in tents or be assigned to residential houses before sunset today. He checked the grain and watched the big pot boil again before returning to the courtyard with Yan Lin. There are dozens of gorgeous sedan chairs parked outside the courtyard, and each sedan chair is surrounded by a proud sedan chair with bright clothes on the ground. Bai Shaoqing looked at them from afar for a while before entering the room.

Seeing her enter the room, more than a dozen men stood up, but they did not mean to salute. They just looked at her. Several people even stared disdainfully. Bai Shaoqing sat calmly in front of the case. After these people sat down, he just looked at each person carefully, but did not open his mouth.

Everyone waited for a moment and exchanged eyes. First, a man in blue-shirt said, "Who are we? I think the national teacher already knows. We came here today just to ask the national teacher, what is the crime of Jiang Shoufu?" The national teacher wants to lock him in the government office.

"Yes, if you place so many refugees outside the city, won't you let people live in peace?"

"What else do we do with our business?"

"If someone robs and destroys it, who will bear the loss?"

One person opened his mouth, and everyone shouted. For a moment, the room suddenly became noisy.

Bai Shaoqing always faced it indifferently, that is, she didn't speak or get angry. These people shouted loudly. Yan Lin saw that she was silent and didn't say much. Everyone shouted for a moment and found that the national teacher in front of them was like a wooden man, motionless, as if he was confident. The voice finally faded down until it was silent.

Bai Shaoqing then said, "It's just a trivial matter to guard the house in Ningcheng. The teacher of his own country will punish him slightly, and he will be released in ten days."

Everyone, including Yan Lin, was shocked to hear the words. Everyone knew that this guard was really against the decree. After her words, there was no place for them to speak in the words they had originally thought of.

Bai Shaoqing's eyes stopped at the fat man in blue in the front, looked at him for a moment, and said with a smile, "Is this Lin Fengyin outside?"

Lin Fengyin was stunned and nodded, "Yes, I didn't expect you, the national teacher, to know me."

"The reason why my native teacher can recognize you is that when I went out of Beijing, I have checked the tax records of Ningcheng with your majesty over the years. Your Guanglin brand is all over the country, that is, in several surrounding counties, and you are always among the top of the tax every year. Your Majesty greatly appreciates you."

I didn't expect that the emperor knew him. At this time, in front of his peers, Lin Fengyin suddenly felt a light on his face. He couldn't help but smile and said, "That's natural."

Bai Shaoqing said again, "Guangfeng has done so hard for the court. Your Majesty has decided to build a memorial tower for you. The will will arrive in about ten days.

There were exclamation one after another, and Lin Fengyin was even more shocked and couldn't speak. Bai Shaoqing smiled and said, "I should have told you the good news as soon as I came here. My own teacher was busy with the resettlement of the disaster victims, so it was delayed." Lin Fengyin shook his hands and said, "It doesn't matter." After saying that, his eyes turned confused, but he said with a little uneasiness: "It is reasonable that such a good thing has fallen on the head. The grass people should be grateful for it, but over the years... The disaster has been continuous, and the business has also plummeted. Hey hey, the national teacher wants me to take out how much money to relief the disaster, but we have to give the grass people a letter first."

As soon as this words fell, more than a dozen people's eyes were fixed on Bai Shaoqing's body, and their breathing was a little short, but she smiled slightly, stretched out a white finger and shook her voice crisply, "I don't want anything."

As soon as this word came out, the room suddenly became silent. Everyone stared at her in disbelief, and their eyes were in danger of coming out of their eyes. They were blaming whether there was something wrong with their ears, but they heard her and said, "My native teacher will never forcibly collect disaster relief funds from you on behalf of the court. Only diligence and thrift can you be rich. Your family business is not suitable. The teacher of the country is the goddess of the Xiang family who guards Qin's peace. Naturally, he also wants to protect your safety. Great wealth is peace.

Everyone looked at her in astonishment, and it took a while to come to their senses. They were all ecstatic. Isn't it true that saying such words from the mouth of the national master represent the imperial edict! Everyone looked at each other, then fell down and kowtowed, thanked God's gratitude, and then left one after another.

As soon as Yan Lin and others left, they immediately said, "You really don't ask them for money?"

Bai Shaoqing looked at him: "How can you change what you say?"

"So...what about the archway?"

"The 700 miles sent last night will definitely come back within 20 days."

"You... Yes, your majesty will naturally agree. It's just a matter of disaster relief. If you release this news, these rich businessmen will never take one out again. We can't rely on the money of the court for a long time."

When Bai Shaoqing stood up and walked to him, he smiled and said, "They will send it by themselves at that time. Why should we get it?"

Yan Lin was stunned, but she had already walked over the house. Although she was full of doubts, she had to follow up.
