Back in the inner room, Zhang Zhidong took a long breath of cold air and asked, Mr. Tang, what is the origin of this Gu King? You seem to know each other very well? Also, who is Wu Shibin? When did my father kill the Gu King's father? How did your master subdue the Gu Emperor? Tang Zhongming looked at the sky with his eyes and said slowly, This is all the story of our father's generation decades ago. I still think about it.

In 1813, Zhang Zhidong's father Zhang Ying was inscribed on the gold list, and then his luck was even better. After taking office, he built water conservancy and revitalized agriculture, and sent people to Hangzhou to contact the silk line, exchange raw silk for rice and salt, and then sell the salt halfway through, turning it into money, and within a few years, Bishui County became a famous and wealthy town in Henan. The people live and work in peace and contentment, and the road is not left behind, and the night is not closed. The officials inspected the officials' homework, and Zhang Ying was outstanding for three consecutive years. The imperial court was overjoyed and appointed Zhang Ying as the prefect of Guizhou. On the day of his departure, the people went on strike and blocked the road. Zhang Ying had to get out of the car, with tears in her eyes, and persuaded her for a long time before leaving Bishui and coming to Guizhou.

What kind of poor place is Guizhou? No one has three cents of silver, and no land has three zhang flat. Miao Yao is miscellaneous, has a strong temperament, and various forces are intertwined, and if she doesn't agree, she will bleed. At this point, Zhang Ying finally understood, what boss favors and does not get promoted? This is simply jealousy and deliberately excluded. But the matter has come to this, can only act according to local conditions, fortunately Zhang Ying is a business wizard, he organized a large number of horse gangs to bring Guizhou's specialties, wine, tea, lacquerware. Local acquisitions. Then they went to the capital to sell it, and when they returned, they brought back grain and cloth. The back and forth not only developed the local economy, increased the income of the people, but also gained a lot of himself, and then Zhang Ying used his abundant assets as the capital to help the poor and balance the forces of all aspects, and he was very handy. But the good times did not last long, and soon a catastrophe swept Guizhou.

In early spring, a great drought came to Guizhou, which was supposed to be the day of sowing, but people stripped off the bark. It's been five months, and not a drop of rain has fallen, and the ground will catch fire if you stomp your feet. Zhang Ying gave up the silver taels she had earned before to buy food to help the victims. But it's a drop in the bucket. In fact, there is a large amount of grain hidden in the underground warehouse in the city, which is a secret grain depot set up by the emperor for occasional needs, but the direct deployment power is in the hands of the Guizhou general Halab. The prefect only has the right to guard. Zhang Ying wanted to hit its attention several times, but after touching the black gauze hat, she finally stopped.

Full of warm thoughts**, hungry and cold steal hearts. When the people were hungry, they couldn't take care of much, so they rose up one after another, and Harab was happy, and he didn't kill anyone for several years. The palms of his hands were already itching, so he sent a large army to destroy the village in every village, destroy the village in every village, and the blood of direct killing flowed like a river. Even Zhang Ying went to the General's Mansion to argue with reason, but she almost didn't return. Zhang Ying had no choice but to use 800 miles to expedite the paperwork. The reason for the civil unrest in Guizhou, the fact that Harab took the opportunity to kill people. With the proposal to open a position for relief, the original play on the court, but at this time the situation suddenly reversed. Under the heavy pressure of Harab, the originally scattered Tusi cottage actually joined forces to resist the officers and soldiers, who were familiar with the terrain and took advantage of the location. actually beat the officers and soldiers to a big neck. Halabb was in a hurry, and wrote to the Ministry of War in the name of chaos in Guizhou Province, requesting that additional heavy troops be sent to clear it.

Zhang Ying was worried, lest the court listen to Harab's slanderous rumors and the soldiers pressed the border, he turned around in circles in the palace over and over again, and his beard was twisted and broken, but he still had no idea. The concierge came to report, my lord, there is a scholar at the door who said that the old man is visiting, this is his famous thorn, do you see it? Zhang Ying picked up the famous thorn and saw that it was neatly written, Brother Nian, Liu Yunyi nodded. Zhang Ying stomped his foot and ordered, please. As soon as the words fell, Liu Yunyi's green robe and long hair walked in elegantly. After the two sides give the salute, they sit and watch the tea. Zhang Yingdao, Brother Liu, I haven't seen you for a long time, where is the high school now? Liu Yunyi said, I am cultivating in the mountains, and I shouldn't be in charge of worldly things. But the people of Li suffered and their lives were devastated. I can't bear to sit idly by. I have come here to save the nations from fire and water. Is it also to solve Brother Zhang's great calamity? Zhang Ying said with annoyance, "There is a great drought in Tong Province, and I have thought of all the tricks I should think of." Now it's really a real donkey that is exhausted. Liu Yunyi laughed, it's just a big drought, I can solve it in an instant. Now it's the government forcing the people to be anti-people, and their minds are confused. Liu Yunyi said, Your Excellency can build a Dharma altar on the high ground in the city, and if I practice on it for three days, it will rain heavily. There is food in the belly, and there is no panic in the heart, and the people will be determined after they get the food. The government then distributed seeds to ensure the autumn harvest. Without spending a single soldier, the source of chaos can be destroyed. Zhang Ying thought about it for a long time and gritted her teeth and said, the plan is a good plan, I will order the construction of the altar now, but the underground warehouse is only under my care, not under my jurisdiction. I opened a position to give relief without following the order, and Harab dared to ask the king to behead me, I was a little frightened. Liu Yunyi said, even if I dare to let you open a position, I will have the ability to protect your life. I know Brother Nian doesn't believe it, come and see? Liu Yunyi took off the flat shovel from his back, dug a pit in the green bricks of the hall, and then took out a gourd seed from his arms, threw it into the pit, and poured water. Liu Yunyi took off the gourd and handed it to Zhang Ying and said with a smile, Brother Nian touched it, but really? Zhang Ying stroked the green gourd, even the small fluff on it was really real, for a long time, Zhang Yinghuo stood up and said with confidence, everything will be done according to Brother Liu's wishes, and the warehouse will be opened in three days, I firmly believe that Brother Liu will not harm me.

Three days later, Liu Yunyi walked down the altar under the adoring gaze of everyone, and at this time it was already pouring rain. People ran and shouted in the rain, gods, there are really gods, Zhang Ying opened the warehouse and shouted, open the warehouse today for relief, everyone will go back to eat a full meal after receiving the grain, put away the bad heart, work with peace of mind, people will not live up to the sky, and the sky will never fail people. With such good rain, this autumn must be a good harvest, and the people crawled on the mud and cried and shouted, thank you for saving your life, thank you to the gods. We're going to build a temple for you.

Zhang Ying returned to the mansion soaking wet and just wanted to change her clothes. Suddenly, hearing the horse's hooves outside the door, Harab came with a sentry and occupied the government in an instant, Zhang Ying twisted the water on his sleeve and said, General Ha, we are not subordinate to the civil and military, and today we led troops to break into our palace, don't you really take the court in your eyes and lead the troops to rebel? He hastened to explain. I don't dare to rebel, and never will dare to have this idea, and you don't have to frame me. But thou art wise, and I dare not kill thee if you say such a thing, lest I end up with a murderous utterance that cannot be explained. But it is also a capital crime for you to open the imperial court grain depot without permission, and someone will be tied up. Zhang Ying shouted, wait, I am an official of the imperial court, promote-strike-demotion-transfer, kill-arrest-detention-detention. You have your own system, how can you, a general with troops, take care of my civil affairs? Harab doesn't care about this, he stretched out his hand and stuck Zhang Ying's neck and said, "Don't talk nonsense?" Come over to me. was pestering, and suddenly heard someone outside the door shouting. When the holy decree arrived, the idlers avoided it quickly. Everyone was in a hurry and didn't know where to escape, Wang Jie, the white-haired and energetic master of the Son of Heaven, the minister of military aircraft, wearing a yellow coat and leading the internal guards, entered the palace and said, Guizhou Governor Zhang Ying received the order. Zhang Ying desperately broke free from the capture of Harab's own soldiers, knelt on his knees and shouted loudly, the minister Zhang Ying received the order, long live my emperor, long live. Wang Jie looked at Harab and all the soldiers and said angrily, Who are you? Who dare to stop me from announcing the decree? Take it! The Ouchi guards rushed up, and Harrab just wanted to explain, but he was dazed by a leaky slap, and he didn't dare to speak again. The rest of the soldiers fell to their knees and trembled. Wang Jie unfolded the holy decree and recited: Zhang Ying, the prefect of Guizhou, is loyal to the monarch and loves the people, and now there is a great drought in Guizhou, and Zhang Ying can do it from a place where he can't do it. Maintain the local area and appease the Li people, that is, concurrently serve as the prefect of Guizhou with the title of Taotai, wear a yellow jacket, and open a warehouse on the same day. To reassure the people. Chin this.

Zhang Ying wept and shouted, the emperor is shengming. Minister Zhang Ying led the order. Wang Jie picked up Zhang Ying and said with a smile: Lord Zhang, congratulations on Gao Sheng, you rest first, I still have to go to the General's Mansion to deliver the decree. Come and bother again at night, although Guizhou is poor, there will never be a glass of thin wine, right? Zhang Ying said with a wry smile, Lord Qincha, his subordinates are brave, and they have already opened a warehouse to give relief. The one who just tied up was General Harab, he was killed by his subordinates because he opened a warehouse to save the people, Harab was anxious to red-faced, shouted, and the lower officials knocked to see Lord Qincha. Zhang Ying, you are still falling into the well at this time. When will I kill you, I, I am here to invite you to our army to discuss important matters, Wang Jie was stunned and said, you are General Ha. You are in charge of the military, he is in charge of the civil affairs, why do you forcibly occupy the government and want to rebel? Harab was in a hurry and prostrated prostrately, "My lord, I have absolutely no ill intentions. Please ask the emperor to check the hearts of his ministers, and please see it. Wang Jie nodded and said, loosen the tie and take the order first.

Harab knelt on the ground in embarrassment, Wang Jie read. Zilharab, a rough man under the original department, because of his courage in battle, he was not overtaken many times, and even became a general. Erdu did not remember that the court was important, and the people trusted, so he took advantage of the natural disaster to stir up a civil uprising. Such a great evil should have been beheaded to comfort the holy will and reassure the people. Thinking that he has been guarding the frontier for many years, he is also dedicated. He was to strip off his yellow coat and be fined for three years. Set an example. You can assist Zhang Ying to give relief and appease Li Min.

After Harab thanked him, he trembled and said, My lord, before the holy decree arrived, Zhang Ying had already given relief privately, now how can I help? Wang Jie smiled meaningfully, So, did General Ha not assist in the relief? Harab hurriedly defended, no, no, no, helped, assisted, when Lord Zhang gave relief, I was leading the army to guard outside the city.

A few days later, the minister Wang Jie left Guizhou, and Harab also returned to the military camp in a huff. Zhang Ying returned to the inner room and bowed to Liu Yunyi, thanking Brother Liu for his magic skills, which not only saved the people of Guizhou Province, but also gave his brother a lottery. Liu Yunyi also said politely that he is still an adult with a benevolent heart and a heart for the world. Yun Yi is just a warlock after all. If there is no adult compassion. How could Yunyi save so many people? Zhang Ying picked up the small gourd on the table and asked, "How can you plant this gourd and it will blossom and bear fruit?" How did you do it? And the wind and rain that day? Liu Yunyi said with a smile, There are big and small spells, and planting gourds on the flat ground is just a small skill for performance. Teach you the way, and so will you. Seeing that Zhang Ying didn't believe it, Liu Yunyi said while gesturing, take an egg, dig a small hole at the top, pour out the egg white and yolk inside, and then stuff the gourd seeds into it. After incubation for 21 days, the gourd seeds are removed after being placed under the belly of the hen holding the nest. The gourd seeds are then wrapped in sulfur and covered with new cotton. Put it on your body, and when you are performing, take out the gourd seeds to remove the sulfur and cotton outside, dig a pit in the ground and throw the gourd seeds, sprinkle them with water, and it will sprout and blossom in a few moments.

Zhang Ying was dumbfounded, is it that simple? What about calling the wind and rain? Do you also want the old hen to hold the nest and hatch? Liu Yunyi narrowed his eyes and said slowly, Calling the wind and calling the rain is the real Dafa, I have been practicing hard in the mountains with my master after I was disappointed in the scientific examination, and it has been seven years, and I have only achieved Xiaocheng so far.
