“I am a doctor, I’ll bandage you.” Ji Ningyun quickly took out the bandage and iodine, and cleaned her wounds in the heavy snow.
Tumbly tears fell in the woman’s eyes.
Su Zhaoyan called Chang Feng Changhe to his side: “Go and see if there are any refugees nearby and ask what’s going on.”
The court did not receive any complaints about the disaster caused by Nanyang County or surrounding towns. Perhaps these people were only a few.
“Are you the people of Nanyang County?” Ji Ningyun asked while cleaning the wound.
“No,” the woman said sadly, “We are from Jiangcheng, we came to Nanyang to escape, and there are other people in the village… But the Nanyang County Magistrate did not allow us to enter the city.”
Jiangcheng?
Isn’t that exactly where he is going?
Su Zhaoyan immediately remembered that he had tuberculosis
After he got well, he had heard that in early spring this year, the court had received a memorandum of the disaster caused by Jiangcheng and more than thirteen nearby counties. Emperor Chengming allocated 400,000 taels of silver to ask the King of Wei to deal with the disaster.
In April, the King of Wei had already submitted a memorandum saying that the disaster had been resolved.
“Didn’t you receive food or disaster relief funds from the court?” Su Zhaoyan asked.
The woman’s eyes were full of resentment: “How could the court care about the lives and death of the people?”
Su Zhaoyan’s eyes changed slightly.
Ji Ningyun instantly understood that someone must have deceived his superiors and concealed his subordinates and swallowed all the money the court gave to the people!
After just a while of talking, many victims rushed towards them. The men and women, the elderly and children were all like the mother and son, with pale faces and thin skin and trembling.
Chang Feng was back, and he looked solemn. He pressed the anger in his tone: “I asked, all of these people have escaped from Jiangcheng…”
“I understand.” Su Zhaoyan interrupted him, his expression cold.
He already knows everything.
“Great charity is good, please give me some food…” Many refugees surrounded them when they saw them.
Ji Ningyun looked at these people and felt a tingling pain in his heart.
