    Wu's mother and daughter originally lived at the junction of Huaxian and Weinan counties in Shaanxi.  As far as Chen Xu knows, these two places are the hardest hit areas. In modern terms, they are the center of the earthquake, especially Hua County, which can be said to be the center of the center.  The disaster of the earthquake was devastating. Whether it was government offices or private houses, tens of thousands of mansions or thatched houses, all were razed to the ground.  The earthquake occurred in the early hours of the morning, and sleeping people were buried under the rubble before they had time to wake up, resulting in heavy casualties.  The Wus and their daughters were lucky enough not to be saved by God, but because their family was so poor that the thatched house they lived in didn't even have any decent purlins. When the house collapsed, the mother and daughter were buried in the thatch.  This is not the first time, just climb out.  After Qiuyue heard her mother's words, she just held her sister's little hand tightly Ever since she learned about Qiuyue's pregnancy, Mengyao had become taciturn.  One night in late January, Mengyao drank until she was completely drunk. Chen Xu felt distressed and a little annoyed. He held Mengyao with a spittoon and asked her to vomit. Mengyao didn't know whether she had forgotten how to vomit or just didn't try.  After feeling so drunk, she actually had to take off her belt and pants. What was this?  After she woke up the next day, Mengyao did not dare to look at Chen Xu. She only dared to lower her head and ask her why she was not pregnant.  This woman was so obsessed with thinking about children that Chen Xu told her that before the fate of the two came, what was supposed to come would eventually come.  Mengyao still didn¡¯t give up. She pestered Qiuyue, Ling Yuehua, and Kuang Yuhan to ask them about the secret to giving birth to a son, including what posture they chose.  The topic got sidetracked as we talked, and several women actually got together to talk about the secrets of men¡¯s sperm.  Mengyao suddenly said there was glucose there, and Qiuyue nodded. She had also heard Chen Xu say it before.  "What kind of sugar is glucose?" Ling Yuehua asked curiously.  "My husband said it's a kind of frosting, sweet." "No, that's not sweet at all" Kuang Yuhan retorted, but before she could finish her words, she felt other people staring at her.  Kuang Yuhan suddenly realized that she had said something she shouldn't have said, and her face instantly turned purple.  Amidst the laughter of Ling Yuehua and the others, she ran away but ran into the arms of Feng Che who happened to come in.  The three families are well connected. When passing through the house, the wife does not avoid it, and Feng Che does not need to avoid it deliberately.  "What are you laughing at" Before Feng Che could finish his words, he felt that the flesh in his waist must be green. What medicine did this woman take today?  Then Chen Xu learned about Feng Che's "feat". Brother Feng was so thick-skinned that he didn't care, but his wife was always shy to see people It was already February when the imperial team arrived at the epicenter.  Hua County is the epicenter of this earthquake.  The losses were so heavy that even the parents of the local county elders could not escape.  The magistrate of Huaxian County is not necessarily a loyal minister. Even if he is a treacherous minister, he will definitely do something for disaster relief if he is alive.  The county magistrate died unexpectedly, and the officials of Linxian County were busy with their own affairs. Hua County was left "deserted", and the living poor had no time to take care of themselves, trying to survive.  They chose to run away to escape, and they would not die if they could only get a bite to eat.  Of course, there is no need to consider those living in nearby villages and towns. They have to go outside the province to beg for food.  As for the people who were killed by collapsed buildings, starved to death, or froze to death, they just stayed where they were.  Time seemed to have stopped suddenly.  Chen Xu was somewhat lucky that the earthquake occurred in winter, otherwise the corpses would have rotted away, and the smell would be overwhelming. Otherwise, it would be unreasonable to cause a plague.  The people brought by Chen Xu are stationed here.  Seeing these scenes of human tragedy, Mengyao stopped making trouble, and Kuang Yuhan stopped being shy.  The eldest lady of the Ling family had a sad expression on her face.  There is no disaster in ancient or modern times greater than what we are seeing right now.  "Master Hu, the earthquake started because I, Chen Xu, destroyed the Buddha. You think too highly of me, Chen Xu." After a pause, Chen Xu shouted sternly, "I can understand that the parties in the court are fighting against each other and will fight to the death. But you are  Damn it for caring about the lives of tens of millions of victims for your own selfish interests! "The tragedy in Huaxian County is just the tip of the iceberg of this disaster. Along the way, Chen Xu has seen too many shocking things, and he finally understands the disasters of his previous life.  There is a widely circulated saying in the film, sometimes life may not be luckier than death.  "Bang!" Feng Che couldn't hold it any longer. He punched Hu Lai on the chin and knocked him to the ground. This was definitely Feng Che's mercy. Otherwise, Hu Lai's head would have flown to nowhere and dropped a few bullets.  What do the back molars count?  Hu Lai didn't yell to impeach Chen Xu as usual. He just covered his cheek with one hand and stared straight at the corpses buried in the ruins in front of him. There were adults and children, and maybe the whole family couldn't survive.  .  Chen Xu??The first thing Zhuhua County did was to gather the old, weak, sick and disabled who were unable to leave their parents and live on inedible food such as tree bark, Guanyin soil, etc., prepare food for them, and give them physical examinations.  Make the best use of things and make the best use of people's talents. Chen Xu has long understood this truth. All the doctors brought from the capital are deployed by Sai Huatuo, and they are professionals.  The second thing Chen Xu did was to dig up the ruins and clean up the corpses. This was definitely a huge project. The thousands of people he brought from the capital were just a drop in the ocean in the huge Huaxian County.  "Qi'an, take my token and mobilize the local garrison nearby. Ask them to come here quickly. Anyone who disobeys the order will be killed." Before leaving, the orthodox emperor gave Chen Xu this token. On the token were four words: "As if I were here in person."  Just typing, seeing the token is like seeing the emperor; the emperor also allows him the right to act expediently, why does it mean to act expeditiously?  If the feudal officials refused to obey orders, he had the right to kill them. The emperor even gave him the right to control the armies. It is no exaggeration to say that from the day the imperial edict was issued, Chen Xu had already outnumbered ten thousand people.  It was even worse than the battle to defend the capital back then.  Chen Xu considers himself not the kind of person who is easily moved. Even so, he couldn't help but have the urge to do his best and die.  Chen Xu doesn¡¯t want to let down the emperor¡¯s trust, and he will never be merciful if a hostile faction violates the rule.  Hearing Chen Xu talk about those who disobey orders being killed, Qi An and Gao Yi felt awe-inspiring, but more importantly, they were filled with pride. The Lord Shangshu who dominated the battlefield back then has returned.  "Here!" Qiu Ping stood at the outside, watching Chen Xu issue orders one after another. She couldn't help but ask Wu: "Mom, who do you think is more senior, brother-in-law or Tai Zun's parents?" Qiu Ping said.  Tai Zun's parents were the late magistrates of Huaxian County, the largest officials she had ever seen.  The so-called meeting only meant that she looked at her from a distance. She also thought that her brother-in-law should be a senior official, but why was her brother-in-law not as good as her parents?  "Of course your brother-in-law is a senior official. Didn't you hear your sister say that your brother-in-law is an imperial envoy of the emperor?" When Mrs. Wu looked at Chen Xu, she really agreed with the saying that a mother-in-law looks at a son-in-law. The more she looks at her, the more she likes him. In her eyes, this kind of son-in-law  He is simply the perfect son-in-law. As for the existence of Mengyao and the others For a man of such great ability as my uncle, if he only has a daughter, it would be a slap in the face!  "Say Cao Cao, and Cao Cao will arrive. Things are so coincidental."  Hua County is affiliated to Xi'an Prefecture. Xi'an Prefecture governs Hua County, Huayin, Pucheng, Weinan, Luonan and other counties. In addition to Hua County, the epicenter of the earthquake, there are also Weinan, Huayin and Yongji County in Shanxi.  The worst hit.  Xi'an Prefecture occupied the third place, and the prefect Zou Dayong was very worried. While he was panicking all day long to avoid the aftershocks, he also directed the counties under his jurisdiction to spontaneously fight earthquakes and provide disaster relief. He convened a meeting with the county magistrates under his jurisdiction and made important instructions. At the meeting, he emphasized  ¡­ Furthermore, Mr. Zou also paid close attention to the movements of the imperial envoy. When he heard that Chen Xu had arrived in Hua County, he broke into a cold sweat on his forehead and then felt relieved. Hua County was the hardest hit and there were no survivors.  First, those who are alive will still be alive, and those who are dead will still be dead if they are rescued. Now the manpower is already stretched, so why bother?  The imperial envoy has to be reasonable, right?  ¡°Furthermore, if it really doesn¡¯t work, you can still blame the Huaxian County Magistrate. This is because he did not do his job well. The dead can¡¯t talk anyway. Is there anything more suitable to blame him than this?  Of course, Mr. Zou also pays attention to his appearance. On the way here, he had already changed into the outfit prepared by his old servant It was an official uniform, dirty and torn. It looked like it was in a disaster area. He had no credit but hard work.  Bar.  "I have met Mr. Chen," Zou Dayong hurriedly stepped forward to greet him. "I have met Mr. Feng." The second half of his sentence was addressed to Feng Che.  As the saying goes, it's not strange to pay homage to many people. If it weren't for the inappropriate timing, he would definitely have prepared some gifts. How could he be empty-handed when meeting a superior?  If you tell me, you will be laughed at for not knowing etiquette.  Although Chen Xu and Feng Che are young, they are so famous that Zou Dayong does not dare to look down upon them.  (To be continued)
