On that day, Emperor Qinzong pardoned the defeated general who went to Taiyuan but returned to defeat. Wang Zichun followed Liu Yixuan into Bianliang City. His father, Taiwei Wang Jian, apologized for his death because of his unfavorable military service, but all his fame and title were removed. Some of the servants of the royal palace returned to their hometowns, and some defected to other houses. A few loyal servants were willing to follow the old lady and Wang Zichun.

With the help of Liu Anguo, Wang Zichun purchased a small courtyard in Wazi Lane and arranged for his mother and younger brother to live in. Wang Zichun also had five or six servants from his hometown. Because he was grateful to the old lady for her daily kindness to them, he still refused to leave her when the Wang family suffered this disaster. Because the Liu family and the Wang family were originally family friends, Liu Anguo often sent his servants to send some food, clothing and utensils to the Wang family to solve the urgent problem.

Seeing that Wang Zichun was frowning all day long, Liu Yixuan advised him to try it out, and asked him to go to the mansion to practice guns and sticks, so that he could get out of the shadow of losing his father as soon as possible.

After about half a month of touching, Wang Zichun gradually recovered his mind and often showed a faint smile on his face. When Liu Yixuan saw that his friend was no longer depressed and lost, he felt much more relaxed.

However, the nomadic people far away in the north did not allow the Song Dynasty, located in the Central Plains, to relax. The Jin soldiers attacked cities and villages one after another, and continued to harass the inland.

After the Jin general Wanyan Zonghan captured Taiyuan, he robbed for three days. Wherever the iron hooves went, the mountains and rivers were stained with blood, and the sun and moon lost their brightness. Zonghan sent troops north to Daijun, south to Jingxing, and included most of Shanxi into the territory of the Jin Dynasty. At the same time, the Liao king of Jin, stationed in Daming Prefecture, Hebei, was also secretly gathering troops and horses to scatter ships, preparing to cross the Yellow River and go straight to the Central Plains.

A large number of refugees in Shanxi and Hebei flocked to Bianliang City. For a time, Bianliang City was overcrowded, and the price of rice and flour was increasing day by day. Some merchants took the opportunity to stock up on goods and raise prices, causing complaints from the people in the city.

On the morning of the morning, civil and military officials gathered in Xuande Hall. Kaifeng Prefecture Li Yong replied: "Long live, the number of refugees pouring into the capital in the past few days is increasing, and the price of food in the city is rising day by day. If this continues, there may be changes!"

The urgent news from the border in the past few days has already made Qin Zong very worried. This news has added fuel to him. For a young man who is only 24 years old, the burden of the Song Dynasty seems too heavy. The court now has no good generals outside and no capable ministers inside. Even if he has the talent of Qin Emperor and Han Wu, he is still powerless to turn things around.

Qin Zong frowned and said, "Refugees flocked to the capital, you can open the warehouse and release grain!"

Li Yong said: "I think opening a warehouse and releasing grain can certainly solve the urgent problem, but it is not a long-term solution! Although the granaries in Bianjing are sufficiently reserved, they are all prepared for war in the capital. When opening a warehouse at this time, if the Jin soldiers attack, there may be no food available in the city. I hope the emperor will clearly observe it!"

"If the warehouse is not opened, how can the refugees be resettled? The grains in the capital come from all over the Jianghuai area. The grains in the capital can be ordered to speed up transportation and fill the gaps in the capital!" Qin Zong said.

Li Yong said: "The emperor doesn't know anything. Now the canal transport ships are coming and going. The ships on the Bian River are already in a row. Even if the canal ships are not stopped day and night, it may be difficult to solve the danger of refugees!"

"Oh, how many refugees have come to the city?" Qin Zong asked.

"I have calculated that there are 100,000 people since now, and the number of people entering the city every day is still increasing. If another month is over, there will be 300,000 refugees in Bianliang City! By then, with the existing population of more than 700,000 Kaifeng Prefecture, Bianliang will have one million people. Even if the cabbage ships on the Bian River enter and do not leave, it will be difficult to supply food for so many people. Moreover, if the Bian River freezes in winter, then the food can only be transported from land, and there will be no food available in the city at that time! I hope the Lord will clearly understand!"

Qin Zong was at a loss when he heard Li Yong's memorial. These refugees were all their own people. If they didn't care, they would definitely starve all over the world. At that time, the people of the world would not support themselves. If they were allowed to enter the capital, there would be no enough food to store them, and if the refugees had no food to eat, it would definitely cause civil unrest, which would leave an opportunity for the Jin soldiers to take advantage of. Then he asked the ministers: "My dear friends, who has a good idea to solve the current danger?"

The Grand Tutor Zhu Fan came out to report: "I have a plan to solve this danger!"

"Oh, what good advice does the old master have? Tell me quickly!" Qin Zong asked hurriedly.

"I think the plan now should be closed and refugees are not allowed to pour into the capital." Zhu Fan replied.

When Qin Zong heard this, he felt a little cold and thought he could have some good ideas. It turned out to be this farewell idea. He said, "How can this be done? The refugees cannot bear the disaster of war and have traveled a long distance to the capital. If I stayed in the door and refused to accept it, wouldn't it disappoint the people of the world!"

Zhu Fan said: "If this is not the case, the danger of the capital city cannot be solved! I heard that the Jin soldiers have gathered troops in Hebei and are invading the Central Plains. If there are many refugees in the capital city, there will be a change over time. By then, if the Jin people find out, the capital city will also fall into war!

I think it is better to send refugees directly to the Jianghuai area than to transfer rice from the Jianghuai area to save the capital! In the past few days, I have also received memorials from various places to the Shangshu Province. People in Jeju and Dongping, Shandong are afraid that the Jin soldiers have moved to the Jiangnan area one after another. Then the refugees in the capital can also move south to wealthy places such as Suzhou and Yangzhou. On the one hand, they can relieve the danger of the capital, and on the other hand, they can make the southern population rich. This is a strategy of both worlds!"

After listening carefully, Emperor Qinzong thought it was a good idea. Now not only the people in the Central Plains moved south, but many members of the royal family began to move south. A few days ago, some ministers had already proposed moving the capital, but some people in the court agreed and some opposed it, and it was difficult to unify their opinions for the time being.

It was rare for Qinzong to hear that Master Zhu had such a good plan, and he had already agreed in his heart, so he asked the Prime Minister Liu again, "What do you think of the Master Liu Qing family? "

Liu Anguo had no good plans for the time being, so he had to say: "I have no good plans, and it depends on the ruling of the emperor!"

"Okay! Then follow the plan of the Grand Tutor, tomorrow I will send the imperial guards to guard the four gates, and do not allow refugees to enter the city. We must persuade them with kind words and let them go south. Kaifeng Prefecture can open the granary of the 'Tian', and distribute part of the grain to the refugees in the city, so that they can continue to travel south, and some of them will be transported outside the city to those victims who have no food to travel. Remember, we must persuade them with kind words and not drive away the victims rudely." When the ministers heard this, they shouted long live, and did not express their opinions.
