Jin Xiao Ai and the others divided the spoils among themselves. Although they didn't get much, they all had a chance to live on.

Currently, none of them had five taels of silver. They could also go down the mountain now.

The refugees were old and weak, so they didn't have any ill intentions. When Jin Xiaoyi asked them to line up, they didn't complain. And Kim is happy to help these people who really need help.

After doing all of this, Jin Xiaoyi let out a sigh of relief. When the refugees saw that they had brought a lot of things with them and heard that they were going up the mountain, they also saw how kind they were and reminded them that there were a lot of people hiding in the mountains. However, the head of the Tzu Hin Temple was a good person, so the mob never disturbed the Tzu Hin Temple.

In addition, although the headmaster of the Tzu En Temple was a disaster victim, the temple was not big enough, so all the refugees had to find a place to live on the mountain. However, no one went to the Tzu En Temple. Even the nobles could not live in Tzu En Temple. I heard they were staying when officials from the imperial government came down.

At the same time, it was to release the supplies for the disaster.

After hearing everyone's words, Jin Xiaoyi wondered if the emperor was also staying at the Tzu En Temple.

No matter what, there was only one place within a hundred mile radius that could be considered inhabited by the Tzu En Temple. They had no other choice.

The refugees also pointed them on a path to the top of the mountain, because although the mob was savage, they were also hot-blooded people, so they would never disturb the monks of the Tzu En Temple.

That was the path the monks of Tzu En Temple used to go up and down the mountain.

Only then did Jin Xiao Ai realize that there was actually such a mountain.

Fortunately, this time they had brought some tools for building simple houses. When the time came, he would be able to transform the carriage behind him and pull it up the East and West Mountains. There may be some trouble in doing this. However, at the moment, he couldn't care less and could only try his best.

However, when she found that road, she found that her initial thoughts were all unnecessary. In order to make it convenient for the imperial government's goods to come in and out, this road was very wide. Although it was very steep, it could be used for carriages.

"This is great, we can go straight up the mountain."

The coachmen cracked their whips and continued up the hill. The carriages struggled on, but this road was for the carriage's convenience, so it was not as steep as the other roads.

Slowly climbing the mountain, the sky was about to turn dark. The sun had already hidden itself into the clouds, and the last rays of the sun were shining onto the bluestone road.

Jin Xiaoyi looked up and saw the plaque "Tzu En Temple" hanging above the vermilion room. It looked like this was the place.

Feng Liancheng knocked on the door and a little girl came out from inside. She looked at them and said with a cold voice, "We don't welcome outsiders here."

"We are here for a disaster."

"Do you have any documents?"

"What document?" Jin Xiao Ai had never heard of this thing. Little Shame closed the door again without a word. Jin Xiaosi was baffled. What was going on with this little Shamei? It was one thing for her to refuse to let him in, but they were here for disaster relief, so why couldn't he let them in?

Jin Xiaosi was baffled. What was going on with this little Shamei? It was one thing for her to refuse to let him in, but they were here for disaster relief, so why couldn't he let them in?

A burst of anger rushed into Jin Xiaoyi's chest. She knocked on the door of the temple for a long time before it finally opened again. This time, Jin Xiaoyi didn't even wait for him to open his mouth before he forced his way in.

This kid, Little Shamei, didn't know what to do.

Little Shame said with a cold face, "I've already said that there are no strangers left in our temple. What are you all doing? "

Jin Xiaosi looked at Shamei with anger, thinking that she would have to live in the temple for a period of time, her tone also gradually became more gentle.

"Young master, we are not refugees. We heard that the Southern County was severely affected and came to help. We brought some useful materials that we hope to use as much as possible."

Xiao Shamei's expression changed slightly when she heard Jin Xiaoyi's words. She stuck her head out of the door and saw the carriage behind her confirm that Jin Xiaoyi was not lying.

First of all, they were not people of the imperial government. Now, those who could donate something at this time were all righteous people. They were still willing to come into contact with such righteous people.

"Are you sent by the imperial government?"

"No, we came by ourselves. We are just commoners."

Hearing that it was an ordinary commoner, little Shami was a little disappointed.

The imperial government still hadn't sent anyone. Could it be that the imperial government really didn't want to bother with these refugees anymore?

"Come in, gentlemen."

Xiao Sha Mi admired Jin Xiao Ai's group for being willing to part with their belongings at this time. Hence, he changed his previous vile attitude and opened the door for Jin Xiao Ai and her group to enter the Temple of Beneficence.

There were a few courtyards in the Tzu En Temple that were specifically meant for pilgrims to live in, but after the flood, those courtyards were emptied out and prepared to accommodate the people of the imperial court. Who would have thought that the natural disaster had already occurred for so long and the imperial court had yet to see it?

Jin Xiaoyi and the others weren't numerous, and they came to help out the disaster. After the guard, Xiao Shame, told the host of Ci En Temple, the host also admired them for their righteousness. So I decided to make an exception and take them in. and think along with them about how to make this small number of relief supplies help more people.

The advantage of the Tzu En Temple was that its location was relatively high, and there were mountain springs on the mountain. Currently, the water in the Tzu En Temple had not been contaminated, and since the temple had its own vegetable garden, it also had some vegetables. There were also some wild vegetables on the mountain. With these wild vegetables and flour, they could be mixed together to make wild vegetable cakes.

However, they did not have much flour left. Based on the current amount of flour, they could only make about 200 people's food.

There wasn't much rice left, only enough for a hundred people.

Even if all the ingredients were added together, it would only be enough for three to four hundred people. What was left over were the medicinal ingredients. These things were far from enough. They were like a drop in the bucket.

Jin Xiaoye was immediately worried.

Logically speaking, there was no reason for the people of the imperial government to leave before them.

The headmaster of the Tzu Hun Temple was called Grandmaster Wu Yi. This Grandmaster Wu Yi was once the little Sham of the National Protector Temple. He had followed Yun Yang to the Southern County where his master stayed.

For so many years, Grandmaster Wu Dao had been in contact with the capital. When there was a flood in the Southern County, there was a letter in the capital saying that officials would be sent to manage the distribution of goods. However, even now, there was still no sign of him. He didn't know if something had happened or not.

Hearing Master's words, Jin Xiaoyi also had some doubts. It seemed that the relief for the disaster was most likely swallowed by someone.

However, the Emperor already knew about this. Didn't they say that the Emperor had already left for the Southern County? Why was there still no sign of him?

When she thought of this, Jin Xiaoyi hastily asked, "Ignoring the master, didn't the emperor come?"

"Your Majesty? This is a place far from the emperor, why would the emperor come here? "

Jin Xiaoyi frowned. It seemed that something had happened.

That night, Jin Xiaoyi and Feng Liancheng stayed in one of the courtyards with the two coachmen. The things they brought were also given to the master to take care of.

Ignoring the master, he also promised that no one would be able to use these life-saving items. Even if there weren't many of them, they wouldn't move a single inch.

The night was as cool as water, yet it seemed as if there were still many people struggling on the edge between life and death in the quiet night.

There were still so many people worrying about eating, but the court had yet to see anyone.

The more he thought about it, the stranger it became. There was no reason for Prince An to lie to her.

It wasn't just Jin Xiaoye who was thinking about this. Even the two coachmen who had followed him were also discussing it.

"Do you think the Emperor will really come?"

"I don't think so. How could the emperor come to such a place?" You see, there are places where you can't even eat roots. "

"That's true. It has already been a month since the floods in the south. I'm afraid that some of the refugees have already made it to the capital. However, we haven't seen a single refugee in the capital."

"Does that even need to be said? There must be some people who are deliberately hiding it. As for the court officials, they might have swallowed all the supplies for the disaster long ago. Why would they still take them out? "

The conversation between the two coachmen reached Jin Xiao Ai's ears.

What the two of them said was not unreasonable.

Now, the thought of these people's difficult lives made him sad.

She still had some banknotes in her hand, but she didn't have much money to transfer to the Moon Pavilion due to the small matters that happened recently. There were tens of thousands of people in a county of Guannan County who were affected by the disaster, so how many people could she afford to help?

It seemed that they could only wait for people from the imperial government to arrive.

The Emperor had indeed arrived in the Southern County. However, when he saw the refugees outside the Southern County, he made a mistake that he could not commit. He passed his silver notes and horse carriage to the refugees. Actually, the eunuchs and servants beside him were trying to persuade him. However, when the Emperor saw that his citizens were suffering from calamity and hunger, he couldn't hold it in any longer.

As a result of the outpouring of compassion, they had to walk up the mountain.

Fortunately, they were lucky. The refugees they met outside the city were not vicious. When they heard that they were going to the Tzu En Temple, someone took the initiative to lead the way. It was their only consolation for doing this.

It was already the middle of the night when the Emperor and his men climbed up to Tzu En Temple.

Their clothes were tattered and their hair was a mess. Their faces were dark and there were even bloodstains on them. They looked extremely terrifying.

One of the followers forced himself to knock on the door. It was a long time before anyone responded.

When the door opened, the entire group almost fell to the ground.

Seeing that terrifying appearance, little Shamei, who had just opened the door, was immediately frightened. "Ah, the devil!"

The loud noise woke up the Ignorant Master.

Ignoring the great master, even he was frightened by the terrifying appearance of the group of people.

Fortunately, although the group of people they met outside the city were fierce, because of the protection of the imperial bodyguards, the seal was not taken away.

Therefore, when the emperor took out the jade seal, the grand master was shocked and quickly kneeled on the ground.

The emperor booed and helped the grand master up.

"Ignoring Great Master, I am slightly impressed this time. Don't let anyone else know about this. "I have ordered some people to gather the materials urgently. I believe they will be sent to the Southern County very soon."

Ignoring the grandmaster who saw the emperor covered in blood, although he didn't know exactly what had happened, the most important thing right now was for the emperor to clean off the blood stains on his body. As a result, they sent people to boil some water for everyone to bathe in.
