Chapter 596

Zhang Xiu finally said: "in today's situation, disaster relief is the first priority. Everything else is on the side. The matter of going south to Jingzhou will not be considered for the time being. "

Jia Xu said: "my Lord is wise!"

Zhang Xiu once again said: "the drought in Guanzhong, you should do your best to relieve the disaster. Next, I will inspect all parties. You are still dealing with all matters concerning Chang'an. "

"Here it is

Jia Xu, Xu Shu and others answered together.

For them, it doesn't make much difference whether Zhang Xiu is there or not. After all, the main government affairs are maintained by Xu Shu, Jia Xu and Li Ru.

Zhang Xiu waved her hand and said, "let's get busy."

"Here it is

Xu Shu, Jia Xu and others should go down together.

After everyone retreated, Zhang Xiu got up and went to the back yard. This time he came back, he had brought dor back. First, he asked the housekeeper to take dor to the backyard.

When Zhang Xiu arrived in the backyard, everyone around Zhang Cheng.

Now Zhang Cheng is almost half a year old.

The little guy's appearance has been long open. It's very funny. All of a sudden, there is one more child in the family, and everyone revolves around the child. This is true of Huang Yueying, Cao Jie, Zhen MI and duo'er.

In addition to Huang Yueying, Cao Jie's three look at pink Dudu's child, and they are even more envious. They wish they could have a child to play with immediately.

After staying in the backyard for a long time, Zhang Xiu left Taiwei's house. On this trip, Zhang Xiu took Sima Yi, Deng Zhan, Shi a, Wang Yue and a group of soldiers to the East.

Xu Shu, Jia Xu and others have responded to the drought.

The specific situation in various places is not known.

This is Zhang Xiu's worry.

Therefore, Zhang Xiucai personally inspected all parties to ensure the stability of Guanzhong.

Now there is no crisis in Chang'an. After all, the ditches in Chang'an have been excavated for a long time. In case of drought, water will be diverted from the river channel immediately, and the water will flow to all sides to ensure sufficient water.

In Chang'an County, there is not much influence.

Leave Chang'an and enter Hongnong county.

Hongnong county is headed by Sima Lang.

Sima Lang was also good at local governance. Moreover, Sima Lang had been informed by Xu Shu, Jia Xu and others long ago, and arranged for people to fight against drought. Where Zhang Xiu had gone, there was no trouble for the time being.

When Zhang Xiu arrived in Hongnong County, Sima Lang went to the gate to welcome her arrival.

Sima Lang has great admiration for Zhang Xiu.

His father, Sima Fang, was always hard to persuade, but now he preaches and teaches in Chang'an Academy. In addition, in a short period of time, Zhang Xiu not only stabilized Guanzhong, but also captured Liangzhou, which was the real shepherd.

Sima Lang stood at the door, waiting quietly.

In addition, there are Hongnong County Yiying County Cheng and others.

The crowd gathered and waited for Zhang Xiu.

At this time, the weather was even hotter. Sima Lang and others were at the gate of the city. After waiting for less than a quarter of an hour, their backs were soaked with sweat, and there were fine beads of sweat on their forehead.

It's too hot.

Sima Lang wiped the sweat on his forehead, but there was a trace of anxiety between his eyebrows.

Hot summer, although it is hot, is the most abundant season of rain. But this summer, in addition to the hot, there is no rain, continuous drought, making the situation very bad. Although in a short time, the people of Hongnong county can still support. But in fact, if such a drought continues, Hongnong county must be in danger.

This is what Sima Lang is worried about.

"Here it is

Suddenly, in the crowd, an official gave a shout.

With this cry, everyone's eyes fell on the official road ahead. I saw in front of the official road, a line of people riding, impressively is Zhang Xiu and others.

Sima Lang encouraged himself, and when the two sides were less than 30 steps away, he personally led the people forward. See Zhang Xiu, Sima Lang arched: "humble Sima Lang, meet the Lord."

"See you, Taiwei!"

The others saluted one after another.

Zhang Xiu waved her hand and said, "you don't have to be polite. You all said you don't have to meet. But you have to face the heat. Let's go back to the city first. "

"Here it is

Sima Lang waved to Zhang Xiu to go ahead.

At this time, Sima Lang nodded to Sima Yi and led Zhang Xiu forward. Although Sima Lang himself held the official position of prefect of a county, he was also quite prominent. But Sima Lang knows better that Sima Yi is with Zhang Xiu. As a main memory of Zhang Xiu, his future is more prominent.

After all, he is a close minister.

With Zhang Xiu, there are many advantages and disadvantages.

A group of people into the city, straight to the sheriff's house.

In the hall, the guest and host are seated.

Zhang Xiu sat on the throne and looked around at the crowd. Her eyes finally fell on Sima Lang and said in a deep voice, "Boda, you don't have to report the rest. Now let's talk about one thing. How are you going to face this year's drought in Hongnong county? "Sima Lang replied, "I have informed the county magistrate to dig wells to store water. In addition, large-scale dredging of ditches was carried out to divert water from the river to all sides, so as to prevent water shortage in all counties. "

"In the current situation, I don't know when the drought will stop. This year's grain harvest is expected to be very poor. Even if the water is diverted from the river, the crops will not be able to defend the city. "

"Under this premise, there may be a big turbulence in the grain price this year. He has already started to purchase grain and put it into the granary of Hongnong County, so as to cope with the turbulent grain prices and ensure the stability of grain prices. "

Sima Lang gave a general description and then elaborated on the measures.

Zhang Xiu praised: "as the saying goes, if people are not far sighted, they must have immediate worries. In today's situation, we must make a long-term plan. The longer the drought lasts, the stronger the subsequent flood and waterlogging will be. We must make adequate preparations. "

Sima Lang said: "my Lord has told me that I will keep my humble position in mind and carry it out exactly."

"Newspaper!"

At this time, there are soldiers from outside the hall to enter quickly.

The soldier rushed into the hall and reported: "I'd like to report to your majesty, there's a good news in Xin'an County."

"Good news?"

Sima Lang was surprised to hear that.

Today's Hongnong County, there is no war, how suddenly there was a victory and so on.

Sima Lang didn't understand. He immediately took the letter and waved the soldiers back. He didn't look it up immediately, but Zhang Xiu was curious and said, "since it's a good news from below, you can have a look."

"Here it is

Sima Lang opened the letter.

After reading it, he looked a little strange. He handed the letter to Zhang Xiu and said, "Lord, the message in the letter is about Huang Tiandao. The magistrate of Xin'an County said that Huang Tiandao bewitched the people and besieged the county government. Therefore, he mobilized soldiers to suppress Huang Tiandao and killed 365 demons of Huang Tiandao. "

Zhang Xiu frowned.

He lowered his head and examined the message.

It's no ordinary thing to attack Tianya. According to previous information, huangtiandao is the border area between Henan and Hongnong. Xin'an County is located on the border, adjacent to Luoyang. It is normal to have huangtiandao.

However, Huang Tiandao went so far as to make a public disturbance, which is simply frightening. We should know that Zhang Xiu governed Guanzhong, worked hard, and reduced taxes.

The life of the people is good.

But all of a sudden, Huang Tiandao made trouble, and even gathered people to attack the county government.

Is that possible?

When Zhang Xiu thinks about the seriousness of things, she thinks more about whether things are possible? He is not a man who sits high in the Ninth Heaven, nor is he a man who does not care about the people's life or death and does not understand their sufferings.

Zhang Xiu climbed up from the bottom, but also through the later generations, throughout the history books, know all kinds of things.

The most important thing is that Hongnong county has always been peaceful.

Even if there is Huang Tiandao, there is no great chaos in Guanzhong. Under normal circumstances, if Huang Tiandao wants to cause chaos, he will have a chance only when there is a complete drought and turbulence in Guanzhong.

Now that she's making trouble, she's looking for a dead end.

so Zhang Xiu is suspicious.

Zhang Xiu looked around at the officials in the hall, thought about it in her heart, and then said, "if Huang Tiandao is in trouble, he should be rewarded. You can arrange a reward for this, Boda

"Here it is

Sima Lang immediately responded.

The rest praised Zhang Xiu's wisdom.

Just Zhang Xiu's heart, but there are doubts. After hearing all these things, he asked all the officials of Hongnong county to step down, leaving only Sima Lang, Sima Yi and others. Zhang Xiu said, "Boda, what do you think about Huang Tiandao in Xin'an County?"
