Chapter 73

After hearing the sentence, Shang Shushu personally came to Lishui to review the case of silver robbery, and also issued the imperative for the release of Zhao Xianling on the spot. Wang Zhifu and Hao Zuosi were so scared that they were indifferent.

They whispered in the carriage.

"Master Hao, don't you think it's strange?"

Hao Zuosi had not returned to his soul, was shaking with the official cap, and was pushed a few times before he made a blank "ah" sound.

Wang Zhifu hated iron and steel. "Now it's not a daze. Think about some countermeasures!"

"What's the countermeasure? All the names are remembered by Lord Yan, and Yang Shou is exhausted, and he is capable of turning the tide? If you are a fairy, it may still be possible, but are you? Wang Xiangcai is known as the living Yan Luo of Lishui. The real King Yan Luo is not even a fart! If you had dragged me into the water, wouldn't I have fallen to such a point? "Haozuosi now wanted to turn his face with Wang Zhifu. He had hesitated at the beginning, and had asked himself, if not The man used a beautification scheme and piled boxes of silver in his house, which made him dazzled and lost his heart, and it would not be so now.

Wang Zhifu ignored the distinction between superiors and subordinates, slap him in the face, and reprimanded, "Dog-Sun, you have greed yourself, but blame it on me? If you have a hard bone like Zhao Youyi, do you think he will be tempted? Wait till I ask you, how many days have you been in Lishui? How many days have you been on the road? "

Hao Zuosi was beaten up against Venus, but he didn't get angry. He summed up a little, and replied, "After four days, the road was non-stop and there was no delay."

"I just arrived four days ago, and I did n’t stop on the road. How did the punishment department come to the back, and brought the imperial decree to release Zhao Youzhang? This is too fast. Is there a ghost inside the gate? It ’s not right, the news is sent It will take half a month to reach the capital. Can the emperor fail to understand the prophet? "Wang Xiangcai thought more and more, and felt more wicked.

Prior to this, he arrogantly aggravated, maimed the villagers, and forced the good for nothing, but it was no taboo, and he never thought he would be punished. He said that "good people do not have long lives, and the scourge will last for thousands of years." This sentence was regarded as a guilt by him. Either he should be a real good man and use his life for a lifetime; or he would be a completely wicked man with infinite scenery. How can I choose at a glance? As for the so-called reincarnation of the Buddha, retribution for cause and effect is all talk about.

But now it's okay, it's too late when he knows it's not talking. He asked Master this morning only to know that the so-called Stone Mill Hell turned out to throw people into a large mill to grind it into a meat sauce, reshape people and continue to grind, grind and grind until the millennium period expires. What a horrible sight, let alone suffering from Shura Road.

Wang Zhifu didn't dare to think deeply, so he was even more afraid of death. He grabbed Hao Zuosi and kept asking about the preferences of Shang Shangshu, trying to deal with the past through bribery. Hao Zuosi shook his head again and again, and said that this man was a harder bone than Zhao Youzheng. He did not like beauty or gold and silver. He had no father, no mother, no wife, no children, no relatives and no races, and only had criminal law in his eyes. , No one is worldly, can be described as incompetent, hard-hearted.

Wang Xiangcai was completely stunned, leaning on the wall of the car for a long time could not recover.

--------

At the same time, you have already walked out of the prison with the help of the jailer. Because of the glare of sunlight, he couldn't help covering it with his hands.

When the victims saw him covered with blood and pale, they couldn't help crying, crying and crying into a piece of knees, and then scratching their heads. During the day and night when Xiaozhao County Magistrate was detained, they seemed to have lost their backbone and felt helpless like never before. What would happen to Suichang if the Xiaozhao county magistrate was killed unjustly? What will happen to the victims? What about the flooded fields? Who can save the tragedy of sadness and hunger?

God does n’t open his eyes and do n’t let good people get good news, they can only seek justice by themselves. Xiaozhao County Order rescued hundreds of thousands of victims in Lishui. How about tens of thousands of them who spared their lives for him? When I got to the prefecture, when asked, I also stood up and raised my head. Because they are not beasts, they have conscience.

After all, the new emperor Yingming didn't let the gangsters frame Zhongliang, and when they saw that Xiao Zhaoxian Ling'an was fine, they were relieved.

Feeling the affection and friendship of everyone, Youyi pushed away the two jailers, slowly knelt down, and worshiped the villagers. His actions surprised everyone, and he quickly rushed around to pull him up, and saw his pants stained with blood, afraid to move.

"Xiao Zhao county magistrate, you get up quickly, aren't you disappointing us like this?" The victims who led the city break anxiously discouraged.

Everyone echoed, "Yeah, yeah, get up quickly. Thanks to you, we all have to die!"

Youxi straightened his waist after three heads carefully, and said slowly, "I am the right person to die. The people are the most valuable, the society is the second, and the king is the least. The officials of all parties are the servants of the monarch, but also the servants of the people It is worth serving the people. Serve the Lord, can you receive it safely? Everyone's friendship, you have memorized. "

Something similar has been said before, but it's just some routines for officials. How much of it is true, he doesn't even know it. However, after experiencing this ordeal, he realized how great the reward would be to be a good official who died for the people. If you pay one point for the people, they will remember the tenth, and even die for you. This is definitely a violation of the principle of "equivalent exchange" you have learned in the last days. However, it is also because of their selfless dedication and dedication, that they have taught you how to be a better person, and a more caring person.

Government agencies before the end of the world always preached that it was the public servants of the people, but how many people regarded themselves as public servants is unknown. In short, this sentence has long been a joke, but listen to it. But in ancient times, who ever heard such subversive speech, and the speaker not only thought so, but also did so. He personally applied porridge, boiled medicine, treated the pulse, healed the sick, inspected the dams, and built shacks. Suichang has the current stability and tranquility and countless living people, all relying on his bowing.

He was willing to die for the people, but now he turned around and thanked the people. Who could bear it? Everyone was crying, tears were falling like rain, and they wanted to say something of gratitude to Dade, but choked up and couldn't keep it. They wished to take out their own hearts and send it to Xiao Zhao county magistrate.

It was okay to see that he didn't speak. When he said something, he cried again, and bowed down, suddenly showing a distressed look. Fortunately, the Ministry of Justice Shang Shu saw his dilemma and said loudly, "Well, Xiao Zhao County Order is safe, everyone is dispersed. He still has injuries on his body, and kneeling again may delay treatment."

The people immediately got up, repeatedly told Xiaozhao County Magistrate that they would be kept well, and caught the commissioner to ask how to handle this injustice. Hearing that the emperor had already spoken, saying that they would "scrutinize to the end and never forgive", they were disbelieved. Already.

"Master Zhao, Oumou is one step behind, and you are suffering." Shang Shu, the Ministry of Criminal Affairs, stepped forward to help you.

Some uncles politely bowed their hands, "It's not too late, not too late. Thank you, Lord O, for forgiving the townspeople for breaking the city, and thank the emperor for your grace." To be honest, where is it not too late? Obviously too fast! Had King Yan Luo intervened there, he would have thought that the emperor could not know the prophet, and as soon as Hao Qin was sent out of Beijing, he would know that Lishui would kill the officials in an unjust manner.

But everyone knows the things about ghosts and gods well, but they can't talk nonsense, so they look at each other silently. Ou Tai took the person to the courtyard he rented, and said that he went to the doctor to treat the injury immediately, but was refused decisively by the uncle. The other party didn't ask much, so he ignored it.

There was a secret feeling, and I thought for a moment: Most of the officials in the first and second ranks of Beijing are very powerful and high above them. I can ask if they are considered condescending and noble. How can you really control your life? If he really chases you to look at the wound, it is difficult to explain.

In this way, Youyi stayed in the courtyard with peace of mind, and then returned to Suichang to deal with government affairs after the silver robbery came to an end. He simply issued the disaster relief process to the public officials and the victims, and it was not a problem to not go back to preside over the situation for the time being.

Wang Zhifu and Hao Zuosi hurried to them, and before they crossed the threshold, they bent down on their knees before accepting their heads. When it was, there was a cricket and Ou Tai was having a meal, and they saw that they were disgusting as if they had eaten a fly.

Youyi heard the servants in the yard say that Ou Tai was the Anqing prefecture, because the official was too clean and honest and offended a certain powerful man. The powerful man Luo Zhi killed all his family members, but sent him to the frontier to fill the army. , So that he would live in regret and remorse for the rest of his life. The place where he was assigned was under the rule of the five princes, and the two met by accident. As soon as the emperor died, the five princes ascended the throne. Otai, who was like a bereavement dog, became a hot character. The power was impeached by him for ninety-nine. For eighty-one counts, Ling Chi was executed.

It can be seen that this man is a hard-bone and a fierce character, and the offender must not end well in his hands. The king and Hao Hao were immediately robbed of their official robes, removed their official caps, pulled out a cane and sentenced them to jail for trial. Youyi was awarded the official seal of the prefecture, who took charge of the relief work in Lishui.

"That's over? What's the matter with me?" Youzhen, holding the official seal, was rather dumbfounded. He thought he was going to confront Wang Zhifu and others on the spot, and he would have to delay seven or eight days of work. What would have made Outai more fierce than the legend, and the fight was over.

"Relief is important. The official in this case has a long history. Master Zhao need not worry."

"That's it, here's the subordinates." Because Lishui Prefecture was affected by a very wide area with a large number of people, Suichang County alone couldn't resettle all the victims, so some dare didn't dare to delay, so they walked away without their clothes. Now he is no longer the one who just wanted to keep his life when he first arrived. Since he became a parent officer, he must fulfill his duties as a parent officer. His people must not die unjustly, choke, starve or die of suffering. .

-------

It was learned that the county official of Xiaozhao was in charge of the government affairs of Lishui, and the people in all counties were rejoicing and celebrating. In addition, the court sent a commission to examine the robbed case of the quake, but after interrogating the two offenders, they learned where the silver and grain were hidden, and immediately sent troops to find out and distribute it.

Some people put forward the suggestion of “relieving work for work” in a timely manner, so that counties can assemble disaster victims to repair damaged dams, official roads, bridges, post stations, and temples. As much as possible, the people's hearts were stabilized, and in just one month, Lishui, a battered and dilapidated one, was built more prosperously than ever.

On the road, you can see that the original pile of sand was cleared, and the planted rice appeared a little green shoots; the collapsed house was built, and the host family was greeting their neighbors to come to dinner; the children who lost their parents were Temples, nursery halls, and other places are accommodated, so as not to be displaced and settled. The original people, who looked like numbness and indifference, had hope and vitality in their eyes.

Youyi made an unannounced visit along the river embankment, walked here, looked there, chatted with many people, and joked with many people. This was absolutely impossible in the past. His alertness to strangers still did not decrease, but he no longer closed his heart. Instead, he let the rain dew in, let the breeze pass, and let the sun shine in.

His knowledge of the world no longer stays in the dark of the last days, but is colorful and fragrant. Even better, all these changes also stem from his dedication and hard work. He pursed his lips, tilted his lips, and walked back to the county hall slowly, only to find that his legs were sore.

Xiao Yan immediately brought him a basin of hot water and wanted to help him wash his feet.

"I'll do it yourself, you go down." Youyi took off his dirty boots, fell down, and fell a lot of sand.

Xiao Yan smiled down, but also knew that the county grandpa was very close to the people, and she could never do anything without the help of others, so she went on obediently.

Youyou poured the sand from both boots and took off the black socks, and then dipped both feet in hot water. He exhaled comfortably, stepping on his left foot with his left foot, and stepping on his left foot with his right foot. After playing for a while, he fell asleep unconsciously.

A moment later, a tall man appeared in the room, walked to him gently, and bent over to take a closer look.

Youyi has not slept for more than half a month and is exhausted. The victims of the whole government have been properly resettled, and they personally conducted in-depth investigations to determine that there was no yin feng yang violation, concealing the situation of deception, he just relaxed, and fell asleep almost half a day later, Xu Shi The earth dragon would not wake up when he turned over.

The man sat down beside him, tilted his head, supported his cheek, watched silently, and then whispered. Xiao Zhaoxian Ling was drooling when he fell asleep, and he also scratched his mouth and made the sound of chewing food. I don't know what kind of mountain and sea food I ate in my dream. This pair of sleeps is pretty stupid, but also very interesting.

But it was difficult for him. For so many days, just like the victims, he only ate porridge and pickles, and he quickly lost weight. The man still remembered seeing him the last time, he was still innocent-tender, watery and moist, upright and handsome like green pine and green bamboo, but now he has become a yellow bean sprouts, the appearance of shrinking in the chair is disturbing .

The man frowned slowly, reached out and stroked the pale cheek of Xiaoxian Ling, and wiped the saliva from the corner of his mouth. The man didn't even feel dirty. He stared at the wet fingertips and wondered what he was thinking. It took him a long time to wipe out the pads, and then he held the right hand of Xiaoxian Lingling in the palm and measured the thickness of his wrist.

"It's thin again." A deep voice echoed through the room, showing a little helplessness and a little distress.

He couldn't help putting it-playing with the fine five fingers of Xiaoxian County Order, holding them between his fingers, placing them on his chest, and then slowly rubbing them around his lips, as if sniffing and kissing . After a while, he realized that Xiao Zhaoxian Ling's feet were still soaking in the water, and he bent down to test the temperature. He realized that the water had become cold, and immediately heated it with Samadhi fire.

The water temperature gradually increased, and the white mist evaporated, making Xiaozhao County's pale skin appear pink. The man looked down for a few glances, stood up and walked twice, only to make up his sleeves and rub his feet. As if he rarely did such a thing, and worried about waking people up, he was a little confused. However, placing Xiaoxiu Lingxiu's feet on the palm of his hand was more than the tension of a thief's guilty conscience. He washed and calmed down, getting more and more organized, not slow.

Scrub every round little toe, and then pierce several blisters on the bottom of the foot with a silver needle and apply medicine. Then he took the person to the bed-, gently took off his robe and covered it. quilt. Looking at someone who was sleeping and spitting a lot of saliva, he shook his head and smiled, his heart was sore and sore, and he was very happy.

I took a book from the bookshelf, leaned over Xiao Zhaoxian Ling and looked around. When he kicked the quilt, he covered it, and when he caught it, he patted it, pinched his nose, and rubbed his lips with dreams. , But also fun. The more the man stayed, the more difficult it was to get rid of it. Even if the token lighted up several times, he would ignore it. If a messenger broke into the window, he would live directly.

After the man disappeared, no one who covered himself in a quilt immediately woke up, fumbled around first, and then sat up half-heartedly.

"Isn't I washing my feet?" It took a quarter of an hour before he retrieved his memory, and found that the basin was still in the room, and the water was cold but not drained. Clean and get to bed-. They are very thorough in their work and will not do half and stay half.

"Who brought me up? Is it my sleepwalking?" There was a faint guess in his mind, and his heart was warm and he fell asleep more peacefully.

-----------

After the relief of the disaster, not only Lishui, but the affected areas in the country suffered unprecedented shocks. This shock came from the imperial court and the new emperor, and the causes were all related to the disaster bank. The emperor was so extravagant and extravagant that the treasury was empty for years. The relief money this time was all the private silver transported by the five princes from the land. It was a waste of money to support the disaster-stricken areas of the country with a single land, but it was not expected that eight to nine of these silvers would fall on the victims, but they were full of officials' pockets.

The victims will naturally rise up if they can't live. Between January and May, there have been large-scale civil unrest in five or six state capitals. If the five princes' troops were well-trained and the fighting force was strong, Dayong Country would have fallen apart. Already. The five princes just came to the throne when such a scourge occurred, and his anger can be imagined, and he immediately sent his confidants to various states to review the whereabouts of the disaster.

Lishui is also under review, and the situation is extremely serious. Up to the prefectural government, and down to the eunuchs, they have been greedy for disaster relief money, and even the Minister of the Qin Dynasty has been corrupted, and he has been lodged in the same way and framed Zhongliang. After the facts were ascertained, Wang Zhifu was sentenced to Ling Chi, and he was convicted of beheading. The remaining accomplices or three thousand, or years of migration, or removal from office, each had their own blame. Other prefectures are also **** and crowded.

At the end of the incident, the overcrowded county halls and government halls were all emptied, and the new emperor immediately wrote down his sins and told the world; he then added three years of gratitude to select people of insight; he also saved five people. Annual taxes; and for many loyal ministers, good ministers, and nochens who were persecuted during the emperor's reign, ordered them to return to the court.

After repeated actions, the precarious Jiangshan Society has been preserved, and the people's hearts cannot be stabilized all day long. Except for corrupt officials, everyone is relieved.

Youyi has now moved to the office of Fuyu. It was thought that after Wang Xiangcai's death, he might be promoted to the prefecture. When Otai left, he actually brought him a decree, saying that he would return to Beijing to report his job. It stands to reason that local officials report once every three years at least, and "Zhao Youzheng" arrived in Suichang for a year and a half. At this time, when Guanyin was short of people, how could he be transferred away?

Does the emperor value my ability and wants to transfer me to Beijing? The new emperor is selfless to the people and loves himself, and has clear rewards and punishments for officials. He has the style of beneficiaries and the power of overlords. Thinking about this, Youyi immediately accepted the decree, ready to enter Beijing, and instead thought of the people in Lishui, hesitated again.

Ou Tai understands his concerns and quickly calms down, "Xiao Zhao County reassures you that the successor of Lishui Prefecture is a former Hedong colleague. Because he insisted on his heart and asked for the people, he was framed by Shang Feng and exiled from exile. He is now a vindictive and a rare good official. He will certainly not let your efforts go to waste, let alone your people be wronged. If you are still not assured, you can come back and look at it at intervals. "

After thinking for a while, he finally decided to go to Beijing. He is not good at pointing finger at the new officials, and can only write his own governance experience as a booklet as a gift. Once the government handover was over, he slowly walked back to the backyard, ready to pack up and set off.

Those gold and silver treasures that were "greeted by Zhao Youzheng" at the time were all sold out by him, leaving only a few clothes, a few pairs of shoes and socks, and two boxes of books. He digs in the box and then digs out a few pieces of broken silver, and even the entanglement in Beijing is not enough, and then he is slow to realize the importance of money.

"A penny stumped the hero, how can I get on the road without money?" He sat in a chair with a dull look.

Just then, King Yan Luo suddenly appeared. First, he made a few laps in the cluttered room, then sat next to him, looking at his patched clothes, and asked softly, "Why, didn't he go to Beijing?"

Yuji wanted to nod, but fortunately, he stopped in time at the last moment, only to realize that the other party was tempting himself again. So cunning, almost fooled! 2k novel reading network
