Chapter 7 Behind the Righteousness is Hidden Secretly
Dust fetches water in the middle of the night every day. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 infoMeditate and rest during the day. Wait for the news of the county.
But more than half a month has passed. The county lord came with news -- there are people who are obstructing things for their own selfishness.
In the yamen of the governor of Shaanxi, officials at all levels gathered together. The county governor of Shanyang was already so angry that his face was red. On the other side, a seven-rank civil official smiled proudly. The person who laughed was Mao Minxin, the imperial historian of Northern Shaanxi Province, who was also known as the Qing Rumor Official. Officials are inferior and powerful, have the power to play rumors, and are in charge of impeachment of lawlessness. The two governors of the yamen argued for half a month. Shanyang Zhixian was already angry, his chest was stuffy, and he almost wanted to vomit blood. It's really not those opponents who play lip service.
"Lord Governor, several Lord Fantai, colleagues, the disaster is like fire. The line between life and death of the people. We are on the official side, and the Son of Heaven is on the shepherd side. How can you bear to watch the people continue to suffer from this great calamity? Shanyang Zhixian said weakly. Hope for the support of others.
"I don't know, it's not that you colluded with the demon way, or were deceived by the demon way. As a scholar, he talks about this ghost and god thing. Lose the face of the court, lose the dignity of the court. Do you want the whole world to see the jokes of our officials in northern Shaanxi? Mao Yushi said it to the point. Say a thousand things and ten thousand, but the risk face and your own reputation are important!
"Is it a joke to be tied to the people?" Shanyang Zhixian was furious, "Why don't you go for a walk outside the city and see what the people of the province have become now." The seventeenth of the three mansions in northern Shaanxi has become a hell on earth! ‘
"You talk nonsense, I'm going to impeach you. As an official of the imperial court, he doesn't want to repay the emperor's kindness, and it's just a strange thing, but now that the Holy Son of Heaven is in the court, there are several virtuous and virtuous assistants in the cabinet, and the four seas are peaceful, where is there any hell on earth? Do you still want to drag your colleagues across the province into the water? "Mao Yushi obviously knows what the point is. No matter what reasons you have, you can't afford to have an important future.
"You... You. "Shanyang Zhixian is obviously extremely angry. was about to refute, but suddenly his face was flushed, a mouthful of blood spit out, his eyes were black, and he fainted. Suddenly, there was chaos in the governor's hall. The governor hurriedly called for someone to carry Shanyang County down, and ordered someone to call for a doctor, and he was busy for half an hour before returning to the main hall.
"Master Mao, you've passed." The governor saw that his subordinates were asking for their lives for the people, but they were angry and spat blood. For a while, I couldn't stand this so-called Yushi Qingliu. If it was really for the righteousness of the imperial court, who didn't know that this Mao Yushi family took advantage of this disaster to desperately buy a large number of fields at a surprisingly low price. As long as the disaster passes, there will be thousands of acres of fertile land. Everyone in the room is not bright, but there are few people in this hall who are clean, and the eldest brother does not say the second brother. Pretend not to know. It's just that now it seems that this Mao Yushi is not satisfied, and he must let it continue.
As soon as the governor's words fell, the hall was full of officials. Obviously, the governor's words are to the point. Everyone may really have the idea of taking advantage of the famine to buy land. But it is too much to be greedy and ignore the lives of the people. All the officials couldn't help but feel sympathy for the colleague who vomited blood. Mao Yushi was not timid at all." For the righteousness of heaven and earth, and for the peace of the people, how can our generation of scholars allow the evil demons to be presumptuous. The sage said: The son is silent, and the strange power is chaotic. When a catastrophe strikes from heaven, you should self-cultivation and self-denial, and you should feel the heart of heaven. If a few Taoist priests do the Fa, the world will be peaceful. What do you want my generation to read? “
The crowd was speechless. Mao Yushi saw that everyone didn't dare to speak, but he was very proud.
When the news that the county was angry and vomited blood came, Shanyang was in an uproar, and it was for Mao Yu Shizu for eight generations I don't know how many times he has been greeted. Outside the city, the victims were in turmoil. The county Cheng who is in charge of county affairs is in a hurry. Busy came to visit the dust. I hope that the dust fairy chief will help appease the people.
Naturally, Lichen will not shirk. Yu promised outside the city that he would rush to the provincial capital early tomorrow morning to help the county lord persuade the governor. When the people heard this, they just felt that the dust immortal master had great powers. It will definitely be a success. So he quickly calmed down.
It was just getting dark. When the dust is gone, he sets out to fetch water. It was relieved to carry back and forth and fill the pools and wells outside the city.
The next day, he didn't wait to say goodbye to everyone, quietly drove his sword and headed towards the provincial capital.
I set off in the early morning, but I arrived outside the provincial capital of Xi'an at breakfast time. Find a no-man's land and press the flying sword. There is a great drought in northern Shaanxi, so a large number of refugees have also gathered outside the city of Xi'an. It's just that Xi'an is a big city after all. The situation here is obviously better than Sanyang. Lichen walked through the refugee area, took out the degree, and entered the city smoothly. When he asked where the governor's yamen was, he went straight to the door.
When the dust arrived, the governor was still having breakfast with his family, and when he saw that his subordinates brought a sticker, he saw that there was a payment left on it - Daming Lake, Beijing Mountain, Xuanguang Temple, and the moral real person worshipped. Immediately, the buns in his hand fell to the ground - he actually came, and he came so quickly.
The governor's wife saw that her master was so surprised that the buns fell to the ground, and couldn't help but ask curiously, "Who is here, my lord is so surprised." The voice fell. Including the old lady, a few concubines and a few children turned their heads one after another.
"It's the moral real man of the imperial court," replied the governor.
"Oh, I heard that the Dao Master is a true immortal on the land. Don't be rude, my son, come quickly. I wanted to see my mother for a long time." When the old lady heard this, she was immediately excited. "Yes, yes, the concubine has already heard that the immortal chief can call the wind and rain, and point the stone city gold, and I heard that she also lit a pool outside Shanyang City, that day. When the water runs out, it will be full again the next day. But God" The family obviously seems to be very interested in the gods. They all asked their masters to bring people in for a look immediately. The governor can only obey orders. What's more, his wife has spoken. Of course, being a son can't go against the old man's wishes.
Governor's back hall. Lichen sat side by side with the governor. After the next person has served tea. The governor picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea, "The unknown immortal has traveled here, what is the so-called thing?" ”
"Coming for the great drought in Shaanxi," Lichen replied.
The governor was noncommittal. He asked, "I know what you mean, but it's too big to be careless." I don't know if the immortal chief can be sure. ”
Lichen smiled and said, "Poor Dao is willing to testify with the heart of the Tao and guarantee it with the head." ”
Only then did the governor become serious, and after a moment of silence, he said, "I believe in the words of the immortal chief, but it is better to convince a provincial official to believe it." ”
The dust said clearly: "Please also make it clear." ”
The governor said: "I heard that the immortal chief has the ability to reach the sky, can call the wind and rain, and can also travel thousands of miles outside the sky. I've been traveling for years. I often think about the smell of peaches on the peach tree planted in front of my hometown. But the journey of a thousand miles is not easy to come by. Now is the time for the peaches to ripen at home. Can you do it? “
Suddenly, his divine sense swept the back hall, only to find that the governor's family was sitting in the back hall compartment. Knowing that the governor would not believe his words without showing a little skill today. "Yes, I don't know where the adult fairy town is?" The governor smiled but did not answer, obviously embarrassed.
Lichen didn't care, he saw the governor's face, and after calculating the heavenly machine, he said, "Please wait, adult." I don't leave my seat either. I just closed my eyes and swam away. The governor did not bother. Just drink tea quietly and wait.
It's only half a cup of tea. Lichen opened his eyes, took out several large peaches from his sleeves, and said, "It seems that one of the peach trees in my adult's house is about to die!" “
The governor's jaw dropped to the ground. A few days ago, I wrote from my family that one of the three peach trees in front of my house was dying, and it was useless to save it. The governor picked up a peach and didn't wash it, but took a bite gently, and immediately burst into tears without caring about being in front of people. Away from home for many years. Now the tears are not because of any peaches, but because of homesickness in my heart.
"Wait for the immortals, I'll come when I go." After saying that, he picked up the peaches on the table and hurried to the backyard. The dust is clear. When the governor left, he took out another peach from his sleeve and nibbled on it. It's no wonder that the governor has always been obsessed with the peaches at home, and they taste really good. But the few maids who stood outside the door were so startled that their eyes were about to come out.
