When they arrived at the county government, Wen Zheng showed the jade pendant directly, but told them not to say anything.

The yamen servant knelt in front of the government yamen, sweating coldly with fright, Wen Zheng strode into the yamen.

In the government yamen, the yamen servant fell to the side and took a nap.

Wen Zheng slapped the gavel, and the servants slowly woke up from their sleep.

When everyone saw that the person sitting in the hall was not the county magistrate, they suddenly became angry, "Who are you, how dare you disturb the court!"

At the same time, someone has already invited the county magistrate.

Wen Zheng's face was ugly, it seems that he has less visits in micro-clothes, and no one knows him wherever he goes.

Wen Zheng didn't plan to take the jade pendant any more, and sat on the official position with an angry expression on his face, "Go and call Wu Wei!"

"Bold! How dare you call our county magistrate by his first name! Take it down!"

All the yamen servants were about to rush forward, when someone outside the door announced that the county magistrate had arrived.

Wen Zheng stared angrily at the lobby.

Wu Wei stretched out his general's belly, put his hands behind his back, and stepped into the lobby leisurely, "Let my lord take a look..."

Who was so bold and didn't say it, but was frightened by the people in the hall and fell to the ground.

"Emperor..."

The yamen servants on the side were still in the dark, and stepped forward to help Wu Wei, "Lord County Magistrate, are you alright?"

Wu Wei couldn't help them up, and pushed them aside, "Get out of the way!"

He himself scrambled and ran in front of Wen Zheng, "I don't know the emperor is coming, and if I miss you, I deserve death!"

After finishing speaking, he did not forget to teach the servants around him, "What are you doing in a daze, why don't you kneel down!"

A group of yamen servants hurriedly knelt down, "Long live the emperor, long live, long live."

Wen Zheng's expression turned ugly, "Wu Wei, you are such a powerful official!"

"Your majesty, minister, minister..."

"Enough!" Wen Zheng came here this time for the sake of refugees, and he really didn't want to waste time listening to his sophistry.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

"Recently, refugees gathered, did you know?"

Wu Wei wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, "Chen, I don't know..."

"I don't know!" Wen Zheng slapped the table violently, "Refugees are gathered outside the North City Gate, and you say you don't know!"

"Chen, I know..."

"Know?" Wen Zheng almost laughed angrily, "I know for a while, I don't know for a while, why are you a county magistrate!"

"Chen, Chen..." Wu Wei pinched his sleeves and lay on the ground shivering.

Wen Zheng looked at the faltering Wu Wei, and was so angry that he threw the gavel at his side, "Call me all the county magistrates of Fuzhou in the four cities and eight counties! Tomorrow, I want to hear a reasonable explanation !"

"Yes, yes..." Wu Wei hurriedly kicked the servant beside him, "Hurry up!"

Wen Zheng shook off his sleeve robe and left the county office.

When He Hua learned that her father was summoned, she hurried to look for Qin Xinrou.

"Concubine Shu."

Qin Xinrou was happily trying on the jewelry sent by He Fuzhou. Seeing her rushing in, she couldn't help but frowned, "What's the matter? You're so panicked."

After all, He Hua had never experienced a big storm, and when she saw her father being summoned, she was so frightened that she lost her soul, "Ms. Shu, the emperor summoned Daddy, will Daddy be okay?"

"The emperor summoned your father?" Qin Xinrou was so frightened that all the jewelry fell to the ground, "Did you say why?"

"I didn't say it, but the yamen servants who came to pass the news were in a hurry, and my father couldn't find out why. He only said that the county magistrates of the four cities and eight counties in Fuzhou should come to the yamen to meet."

"All come from four cities and eight counties?" Qin Xinrou's brows were gradually furrowed. Nothing major happened in recent days. If anything happened, it would be about the refugees in Lincheng.

Could it be... Qin Xinrou's eyes widened, and she quickly ordered: "In the near future, you should not come to my place."

"Why... Concubine Shu, this is... do you plan to leave my father alone?"

Qin Xinrou's expression turned ugly, "If you want to keep your position, you should stop talking too much. Be quiet these days, don't come to me, let alone provoke the emperor."

"Yes..." He Hua didn't understand the ways of the palace, and at this moment she had no idea, so Qin Xinrou naturally did whatever she wanted.

After He Hua left, Qin Xinrou quickly took the jewelry, exchanged some silver taels, and exchanged food.

Qin Xinrou also set up a porridge shed at the gate of the city, hired some people, and asked his servants to set up a porridge shed day and night to serve the refugees who came and went.

Wen Zheng went to the county government office today, so he probably won't be free in the near future.

Ye Chu released his restraint by himself, and left the other garden, the street had already entered the homeless people.

Ye Chu looked at the elderly and children who were starved of food, and couldn't help sighing heavily.

The maid was waiting on the side, and when she saw her sigh, she immediately became nervous, "Empress Empress, are you feeling unwell?"

"No." Ye Chu frowned, "Is the imperial physician from the palace here?"

"Never, the imperial physician in the palace is old. Although he travels day and night, he doesn't dare to bump."

"What about the doctors outside the palace, have they been summoned?"

"Go back to Empress Empress, the doctors outside the palace have almost been summoned, and I can consult with you today."

"Then you go and have a look. If there are people who are seriously injured, call them first and let the doctor treat them first."

"understood."

Ye Chu walked a few more steps, and suddenly remembered, "Are there enough medicinal materials in the city?"

"The medicinal materials have been transferred from the four cities, so it should be enough."

Ye Chu nodded, "That's good."

"What about the emperor?"

The maid stood on one side with her head bowed, "I heard from the guards that the emperor summoned the magistrates from four cities and eight counties and Fuzhou, and they are probably in the meeting hall of the palace at this moment."

"Okay, got it."

At this moment, in the main meeting hall, the floor is in a mess, the refugees, the magistrates of the four cities and eight counties, Fuzhou, push the blame on each other, and they are very angry when they hear of the dispute.

"You all say that you don't know, so let me ask you, who gave the order to prevent the refugees from entering the city!"

When I asked this, several county magistrates and Fuzhou just wiped off their sweat, looked at each other in blank dismay, and dared not speak out.

"What use is it for me to support you! Come, someone, pull down these wine bags and rice bags, and punish them with a staff of one hundred, and fine them three years."

Wen Zheng was so angry right now, no one dared to intercede.

At this moment, the door of the meeting hall was pushed open, Ye Chu walked in straight up, seeing the officials kneeling on the ground, he didn't intend to plead for mercy.

If you intercede for these officials, what about those people who were blocked from the city gate by them, displaced and starved to death.

Wen Zheng was a little surprised when he saw Ye Chu come in, "Why is the queen here?"

Ye Chu glanced at the group of officials kneeling on the ground, and saw that they were very competitive, so he could probably guess a thing or two.

It is nothing more than the fact that these officials shirk each other and are unwilling to take responsibility.

She strode towards Wen Zheng, pulled him up and walked out, "If you want to know the inside story, you might as well ask those displaced refugees."

Wen Zheng looked up at Ye Chu, and followed her out of the palace.
