In her previous life, her parents died in an accident and her brother was left disabled, making Zhou Zhi live a wretched existence. Starting over in this life, with both her parents alive and her b...
Chen Yuyuan blushed and said, "Yesterday, when Abo and I passed through the town, we saw that some people in the town were sick either because they didn't have money to see a doctor, or because the doctors weren't skilled enough and the treatment wasn't effective. Abo and I discussed whether we should select someone suitable for medical training in each village and train them properly, so that it would be more convenient for everyone to see a doctor."
Xu Rao was surprised that Chen Yuyuan could think of this problem and even come up with such a solution. She nodded and wanted to say something, but then felt that since the teacher was present, the teacher should give feedback first.
Wu Muyue stroked his beard, listened attentively to Chen Yuyuan's words, nodded, and said, "Yuan, I am very pleased that you can think of these issues. However, our Great Liang has a vast territory, and the customs and traditions of each place are different. Even the methods of doctors treating patients are different. Since Yuan wants to do this, you should first understand the situation in each place."
Upon hearing Wu Muyue's words, Xu Rao immediately laughed. Wu Muyue looked at Xu Rao with some surprise. Xu Rao waved her hand gently and said, "Uncle is absolutely right. Without investigation, there is no right to speak. We must investigate the situation thoroughly before deciding what to do next, right?"
Upon hearing this, Xu Bai laughed and said, "Dad, your summary is spot on." Xu Rao naturally knew that Xu Bai was making fun of him, but he didn't mind; he had always been a magnanimous person.
After breakfast, Chen Zhaoci came to find Xu Rao. Xu Rao and the people who came were already busy with their own tasks. Xu Rao followed Chen Zhaoci to the vicinity of the tent.
Chen Zhaoci said, "Let me tell you about Qingqing. My uncle is planning to adopt this little girl."
When Xu Rao arrived, he had already seen the pale-faced little girl lying on the bedding in Chen Zhaoci's tent. He knew that the little girl had broken her leg and was recovering from her injury.
When Xu Rao heard Chen Zhaoci mention Wu Muyue's plan to adopt Qingqing, he frowned and said, "This is a matter for the Wu family, and we shouldn't interfere. However, at this time, with various forces vying for power, no one knows what might happen next. I'm afraid that having the little girl with us might bring her disaster."
Although Emperor Liang Cheng was not yet of age to know his destiny, his sons had already come of age, and each of them had someone to help them. Everyone was thinking about the boundless favor and glory of becoming emperor. On the surface, everything was calm, but underneath, undercurrents were surging.
Emperor Cheng of Liang was a benevolent monarch. He was tolerant not only towards his ministers but also towards his children.
In the royal family, it is actually very dangerous for a father to be powerful when his sons grow up. Emperor Liang Cheng knew about what his sons were doing behind his back, but because of the father-son relationship, he turned a blind eye to their little tricks. He always thought that they would stop when they ran into a brick wall and realized that what they were doing was not going to work. He wanted them to know that things could not be done, otherwise they would still have some undesirable thoughts in the future.
At this time, chaos was not only breaking out in the capital, but also in some economically better-off prefectures. After all, to cause trouble, you need people, and to get people to help you do things, you need to offer attractive benefits. Otherwise, who would be willing to risk their life to help you?
Chen Zhaoci naturally understood what Xu Rao meant, but now that the whole family was on the boat, there was no way to get off. All they could do was steer the boat well, cutting through the waves and trying to find a way to survive.
Seeing the troubled look on Chen Zhaoci's face, Xu Rao gently patted her shoulder and said, "Don't be troubled. This is your uncle's business. Since he has made this decision, he must have a plan. When it comes to analyzing matters in the court, none of us are as good as your uncle."
Chen Zhaoci smiled slightly and said, "Of course I know, but I feel sorry for Qingqing. The little girl is all alone now, with no one to rely on. With her uncle, she can be taken care of. Otherwise, how will a little girl live in the future? This world is always less tolerant of girls."
The sun was already quite high, and the sunlight was dazzling. Xu Rao pulled Chen Zhaoci to stand in front of a row of trees. Because of the trees' shade, the light filtering through the leaves was much gentler. A gentle breeze blew by, and the light danced lightly, which made Xu Rao feel a little more relaxed.
Chen Zhaoci said, "You've been traveling all night and you must be exhausted. You should go and rest for a while."
Xu Rao turned around and looked at the town where many houses had been destroyed by the earthquake. She sighed and said, "How can I rest? I'm going to the village head to see the specific situation. These places need help rebuilding. If there aren't enough people, I'll have to think about asking Wei Lang and the others for help. I need to find some people to come and lend a hand."
Looking at Xu Rao's back, Chen Zhaoci felt a pang of heartache. He must have hadn't rested much all night, as he looked somewhat hunched over. Xu Rao had actually been under a lot of pressure these past two years, especially during his time in Ganzhou. As the Assistant Magistrate of Ganzhou, although he was acting as the Prefect, some people always used this position to their advantage while secretly disobeying orders. In order to ensure that some policies could be implemented, Xu Rao had to outwit and outmaneuver these people.
Fortunately, he was promoted to Prefect of Liaodong, so no one would use this as an excuse to do anything in the future.
Xu Rao had been away from here for a long time. As the highest official of the prefecture, he could not easily leave Liaodong Prefecture. Fortunately, things here were almost settled. On the third day, Xu Rao led his fully equipped caravan and, with the people of the town seeing him off, continued on his way to Liaodong Prefecture.
