435: More money and more food, afraid of being robbed (4 more)
Cheng Qing wanted to tell Yu San the way of "check and balance" but Yu San suddenly thought it was wrong.
Cheng Qing’s words have subtext!
Cheng Zhixu caught the handle on Jiang Zhizhou's corruption and dereliction of duty. He asked him who he could help?
Isn't this nonsense?
He is not familiar with Mr. Cheng, so of course he is helping Cheng Qing.
As for his friendship with Cheng Gui... At this moment, Yu San perfectly practiced the four words "forget friends when seeing sex", and had already left Cheng Gui behind. Once he made a decision, he could not even listen to the opinions of the entire Yu family. If he wanted to do something to Cheng Zhixu, he would not worry that the other party was Cheng Gui's biological father.
Yu San is not so filial to his own father-
From Cheng Qing's perspective, after she said that, Yu San's earlobe suddenly had a suspicious pink color, and his tone of speech was as serious as if he was taking an oath in the church:
"I care!"
If you care, just keep it. What's wrong with doing so loud?
Before Cheng Qing could curse, Yu San cleared his throat: "Okay, I'm going to patrol and guard the deck, don't worry, although I have always been inconsistent with you, at least I know the importance. If anyone makes trouble during disaster relief, it will be my enemy!"
These words are quite impressive.
I don’t know what the imperial court planned for Tianjin Wei’s case.
Cheng Qing’s doubts were answered in Jining.
The fifth prince sent soldiers to escort Director Tian and other criminals to rush on the road and caught up with the disaster relief fleet.
"You met the water bandits halfway?"
What kind of water bandits are clearly killing people to silence them.
It seems that Tianjin Wei’s water is very deep, and no one behind them is allowed to live in the capital.
Too.
Director Tian took the blame in front of the fifth prince and might repent after the interrogation of the Ministry of Justice.
Or the dead can keep secrets.
Cheng Qing was not very surprised that Commander Tian was silenced. Another news brought back by the soldiers made her feel more worried.
Sure enough, someone in the court questioned the fifth prince’s actions. Meng Huaijin said a few fair words to the fifth prince, but was sent by the emperor to Tianjin Wei to investigate the burning of Daying Cang!
How can I check the place in Tianjin Wei?
Cheng Qing knew that Meng Huaijin was very smart, but this did not make her worry.
The fifth prince had no choice but to comfort Cheng Qing:
"Meng Shaoqing is willing to go to Tianjin Wei, so he should be somewhat sure. Even if the case cannot be found out, he can always protect himself with his ability."
Senior Brother Meng is definitely not the kind of person who only seeks to protect himself!
Or I won’t go. If I go to Tianjin Wei, I will not allow myself to go there in vain.
Cheng Qing was very glad that Meng Huaijin was very good at this time... Senior Brother Meng was in Tianjin Wei, and she was in Jining, so she had to continue going south, so she couldn't do anything.
Jining is not as prosperous as Linqing, and there are not as many wealthy businessmen as Linqing, but there are more refugees than Linqing.
Cheng Qing and his group were anxious in their eyes and could not waste time as much as they did in Linqing. Jining may not be able to do the conditions in Linqing.
Of course, the court has notified the canal of the fifth prince to receive the order to provide relief to Huainan with fast horses, requiring local yamen to cooperate in disaster relief. Therefore, no matter where the fifth prince's fleet docked, the local yamen can get the news quickly. There are always local officials and local gentry greetings.
There is also a Liaocheng between Linqing and Jining.
Cheng Qing and the fifth prince were thick-skinned and also "begged" for 80,000 taels of silver in Liaocheng and Jining.
The fifth prince hopes that Liaocheng and Jining can follow the model of resettling refugees in Linqing City, and are willing to leave half of the silver donated by wealthy businessmen and gentry in the two places. Liaocheng and Jining are willing to collect the silver, and are not enthusiastic about resettling refugees.
After hearing their shirkable tone, the fifth prince could not believe them.
I can only send someone to inform the refugees about the situation in Linqing City, hoping that these people can persist and go to Linqing City.
The money was still left, but no one could determine how much the officials in Liaocheng and Jining could complete the orders of the fifth prince.
When sailing on the canal every day, Cheng Qing and others were worried.
The further you go south, the more food you collect for disaster relief.
Five thousand stones in Tongzhou.
Tianjin Wei 30,000 stones.
Five thousand stones in Texas.
Five thousand stones in Linqing.
The Yu family donated 10,000 stones.
Before leaving Shandong, the grain was already 55,000 stones, and the number of ships transporting grain increased to nearly 150, as well as medicinal materials and silver.
The imperial court issued a document asking prefectures and counties along the canal to assist in disaster relief, and providing assistance to the fifth prince for disaster relief was a positive effect, but also brought negative effects.
Cheng Qing said that this was a gong and drum to tell the bandits along the way that the fleet carried a large amount of food and silver, come and grab it!
When he is close to Huainan, Cheng Qing is afraid of something happening.
There were more ships carrying grain, and the defense lines of hundreds of guards were also dispersed.
If a water bandit cut off the fleet from the middle, it will be difficult for the front and rear guards to rescue them in time.
Cheng Qing no longer allowed Xiao Pan to sleep at night, and told Xiao Pan to try to make up for sleep in the cabin during the day and stay alert at all times at night.
Cheng Qing felt that he was squeezing the little girl, but Xiao Pan himself felt that he was working hard:
"When I followed Miss Wan, the maid who served Miss Wan was already on duty. I wanted to serve Miss Wan, but I was not qualified to serve Miss Wan."
The ladies of rich families slept very big in bed. The ladies slept in the bed, and the maids on the night sleep on the collapse beside the bed. They were not the maids they trusted and could not get the errand work they worked for.
Cheng Qing was so amused that he told Xiaopan not to sleep at night, but Xiaopan still felt that he was highly valued.
However, in the current situation, she really has to rely on Xiao Pan to make Xiao Pan tired. It would be nice to be able to warn in advance.
Cheng Zhixu, the old fox, has been dormant. When everyone is worried that they can't sleep well, he suggests to the fifth prince that he asks the guards along the coast to send someone to escort him.
Cheng Zhixu said it in a tactful way, and to summarize it, "If you have the right, you will be wasted after expiration!
Anyway, the court issued a document to assist in disaster relief.
Retaining refugees is to assist, and sending troops to protect disaster relief supplies is also to assist.
The fifth prince hesitated.
The Tianjin Guards were almost trapped in the mud, and the fifth prince was unable to confirm whether the chief of the guards along the coast had been bribed.
If the garrison itself is not clean and the soldiers sent to help have problems, wouldn’t it be that the wolf would be brought into the house?
"Your Highness, don't worry. Your Highness, the subordinates have a close relationship with Commander Qi in Jiangsu. If Commander Qi can send troops to escort, the trip to Huainan will be much more peaceful!"
The Great Wei was similar to the Ming Dynasty, but it was not like the Ming Dynasty moved its capital. When the Great Wei was founded, it was established in its current capital, so there was no distinction between the south and the north and the Zhili, and there was only one Zhili from beginning to end.
The Ming Dynasty was the "two capitals and thirteen provinces", with a total of fifteen administrative regions.
The Great Wei was "one capital and fifteen provinces". In Cheng Qing's impression, the southern Zhili of the Ming Dynasty was now Jiangsu and Anhui provinces.
