Chapter 1036: A Disaster Is Coming (1)
Spring Blessing Banquet, as the name implied.
In the afternoon, Jiang Huailu followed Madam Xia into the carriage.
The location of the Spring Blessing Banquet was set in a pce outside the capital.
The Empress Dowager personally presided over it.
As a role model for all the women in the world.
The carriages drove out of the Imperial City one after another. Everywhere, refugees in ragged clothes could be seen lying on the ground, curled up tightly into a ball. No one knew if they were dead or alive.
“Didn’t His Majesty allocate a million taels of silver? Why is it so tragic?” Everyone from the various prefectures took a deep breath.
They were in the backyard, so they naturally didn’t know about the tragedy outside.
“Furen, it’s more than that. During the Great Zhou’s snow disaster, countless people’s houses copsed, and countless people were buried in the cold snow. Your Majesty, if you distribute the money to various parts of the Great Zhou, it will only be able to appease them for a while.”
“Besides, natural disasters are happening constantly outside. Countless refugees are surging towards the Great Zhou.”<div>
“There are very few who can reach the capital of the Great Zhou. What we have seen is already very few.”
Madam Xia paused slightly, her brows tightly furrowed, and her heart clenched.
It was covered in snow and ice. At a nce, countless people had frozen to death.
There were also many refugees in tattered clothes who stopped the carriage and knelt down to beg for clothes and food.
How did it be like this?
“Mother, mother, niangniang…Wuwuwuwu…” A child’s tender cry sounded.
Madam Xia looked up and saw a three or four-year-old girl shivering from the cold. She kept shaking the woman who had fallen to the ground.
The Xia family had suffered greatly and could not bear to see them leave.
Tears immediately fell.
What truly moved her was the scene. It was very simr to the helplessness and despair she and Lulu had felt in Huangdu.
“Give me some thick clothes and some money.” Madam Xia sighed.
The coachman shook his head.
“Furen, how many carriages did you see galloping out? Countless carriages passed by, but no one dared to stop.”
“There are countless refugees. If you reward them, you will take their lives. I can’t.”
“What’s more, if you give alms, I’m afraid these refugees will instantly get into the carriage. I’m afraid …” Before the carriage finished speaking, Madam Xia’s face turned pale.
Although they brought guards, the carriages were all filled with women.
Moreover, in such a situation, the refugees would probably see her as theirst straw.
Seeing that Lulu seemed to be taking a nap with his eyes closed, she didn’t dare to take the risk.
Madam Xia sighed softly.<div>
“Take her away. The big Jiang family can afford to raise a child.” Lulu said softly. The coachman paused for a moment, and a guard immediately came forward to send the two of them to the carriage at the back.
The little girl raised her dirty head. “”Thank you, Sister Benefactor. Thank you, Sister Benefactor.”
This scene seemed to have attracted the attention of the surrounding refugees. They all tried to circle around and beg their benefactor to save them.
Lulu’s eyes shed coldly.<div>
A few men in ck had flown down from his body. He held a sword in his hand and killed decisively.
The refugees were instantly intimidated.
Madam Xia raised her eyebrows and nced at them. They were His Majesty’s men.
He sighed softly in his heart.
“Let’s go.” Lulu sighed softly and muttered.
Actually, she had already returned to the Salvation Pce. He checked the Life and Death Book.
There was indeed a great cmity in the world.
Moreover, she had already had a vague premonition these few days.
With the disaster approaching and corpses strewn everywhere, how many people could escape?
Lulu’s eyes were deep. She was a savior, but she could not save the world in the face of natural disasters.
Heavenly Dao, what are you thinking?
