Chapter 757
In addition to the money that was handed out, most of the money was exploited layer by layer by local officials, and everyone peeled off one layer, which led to the fact that in the hands of the refugees it was not enough for them to eat two meals... …

The national treasury is empty, and refugees are increasing everywhere. Emperor Zong Yuan's body is weak, and he doesn't have much energy to deal with these things.

As for the person standing behind the second prince, the emperor was not at ease educating the second prince to deal with the matter.

Jiang Chenyao had no choice but to bid farewell to Lin Wanjiao temporarily and return to the court to suppress those treacherous officials who were ready to move.

With Jiang Chenyao's assistance from the side, Emperor Zong Yuan's weak spirit quickly healed up a lot, and the progress that was originally frowning also proceeded smoothly.

Soon, the refugees who fled directly to various places were properly managed by local officials.

At the same time, because of Jiang Chenyao's swift and resolute actions, dozens of corrupt local officials were found out in an instant.

Emperor Zong Yuan looked at the amount of corruption placed on his dragon case, and his eyes only glanced roughly, his originally calm face instantly became furious.

When the emperor was angry, he buried a million corpses.

These local officials who were detected were sentenced to death within a few days, and those who should have been sentenced to death were sentenced to death, and it was time to go into exile.

And their embezzlement crimes and the money in the book were all ransacked and filled the treasury.

Just ransacking the homes of so many officials made the treasury, which was originally empty, be half filled in an instant.

In this way, Emperor Zongyuan became even more angry. There are only a few officials, each of whom has so much money in their clothes, so why are there so many corrupt officials who have not been found out? ?
No wonder the treasury is empty, no wonder there is no money for disaster relief, no money to deal with refugees, it turns out that all the money has been embezzled by these corrupt officials!

With money in the national treasury, it will be easier and faster to deal with these refugees, with Jiang Chenyao's guards on the side to assist.

The refugees have been dealt with almost the same, with a place to eat and a place to sleep.

Lin Wanjiao, who was still in Qingzhou City, also met many refugees when she was shopping in her free time, it was obviously a cold winter.

The clothes on them were all ragged and dirty, and some of them collapsed in the city before taking two steps.

Although these people were rescued quickly, the daily assistance is still limited, and if they arrive late, the things will be exhausted.

Seeing their appearance, Lin Wanjiao couldn't help but tremble a little, thinking about the food piled up in her space.

Maybe... I can also do my part to help them.

Lin Wanjiao always does what she says, but today she made a decision, and tomorrow she will directly set up a stall.

Since there were quite a lot of refugees in the city, Lin Wanjiao also hired two men and a woman, who was in charge of cooking porridge.

After all, Lin Wanjiao couldn't stay in the kitchen cooking porridge if there was food.

As for the two men, they were responsible for distributing porridge to the refugees, also to prevent these refugees from fighting and making trouble when receiving the porridge.

And Lin Wanjiao's behavior made these refugees praise her, and in just a few days, Lin Wanjiao's reputation spread farther.

They all knew that there was a kind man in Qingzhou City who provided food for them and found a doctor for them.

Qingzhou City is relatively close to the capital, and there are many officials patrolling from Qingzhou City.

Lin Wanjiao's behavior, as well as her reputation, attracted the attention of these officials. At this time, it is very unusual for a little girl to be willing to pay for porridge and medical treatment for refugees.

Even a little lady can do this, one can imagine how powerful their country is.

The official reported it to Emperor Zongyuan, and Jiang Chenyao, who was standing beside Emperor Zongyuan, also got the news at the same time.

After learning that the woman's name was Lin Wanjiao, Jiang Chenyao smiled, his face was full of pride.

Emperor Zongyuan was overjoyed, because the country's treasury was empty because of the previous war.

Although some corrupt officials' homes were raided during this period, there were floods and droughts in various parts of the country, and the money could at most be used for a period of time.

At this time, someone took the initiative to help the victims, which also proved the strength of their country and the kindness of the people.

Jiang Chenyao obviously thought of this too, when Emperor Zong Yuan was about to order to praise Lin Wanjiao, he simply begged Lin Wanjiao for a township lord,
Emperor Zong Yuan thought about it carefully, and then agreed, he wanted to express his inner thoughts through the matter of Lin Wanjiao.

Then this decree can only seal Lin Wanjiao as an eighth-rank township monarch. After all, there is no fiefdom, and the good-looking one is just a title.

But with the title of Bapin Township Monarch, Lin Wanjiao became an official from a commoner.

The county magistrate in a small place is only of the eighth grade, and the name of the eighth grade township gentleman is enough to calm down some people who say sour gossip behind their backs.

"Chen Yao, what is the relationship between this lady and you?"

After Jiang Chenyao and Emperor Zongyuan were the only ones left in the hall, Emperor Zongyuan raised his eyebrows and asked.

"What does the emperor mean by this?"

Jiang Chenyao said calmly.

"Chen Yao, you are really boring."

Unable to squeeze out what he wanted to hear, Emperor Zong Yuan waved his hand regretfully, and continued,

"Chen Yao, this is the first time you have asked me to give you a reward. I don't believe it. You don't know this little woman."

Hearing this, Jiang Chenyao raised his head and glanced at Emperor Zong Yuan, then raised his eyebrows,

"I know, not only that, the emperor will know in the future."

"Oh?"

Hearing Jiang Chenyao's tone this time, and the rarely lively expression on his face, Emperor Zong Yuan was really curious this time, and he also raised his eyebrows,
"Then I'm really looking forward to it."

-

"By God's blessing, the emperor's edict said: Lin Wanjiao, a woman of the people, is gentle and honest, with a beautiful quality and a blue heart. Donating porridge and rice is a model among the people. I hereby confer the title of Bapin Township Lord. I will give you a hundred taels of silver, two pairs of gold bracelets, and a jade wishful one." Yes, that's right."

"The woman accepts the order."

"Congratulations, Mr. Xiang."

After the rice paper was finished, the father-in-law who announced the decree smiled and handed the imperial decree to Lin Wanjiao.

"Eunuch is polite."

Lin Wanjiao stepped forward with a smile, and stuffed the purse she had prepared into her father-in-law's hand.

"How embarrassing..."

"Father-in-law, you're being polite. The trip that the father-in-law ran was exhausting, as it should be."

"Then our family will take it. Congratulations to Mr. Xiang, the emperor knows that you donate porridge, but he has praised you several times."

The father-in-law squeezed the purse in his hand, it felt quite heavy, and the smile on his face became more real.

Lin Wanjiao replied a few more words with a smile, and then sent the crowd out.

Because this decree was announced in Qingzhou City, there were not many family members, but there were many people watching the excitement.
