"The military affairs are busy, if Lord Yang wants to be fine, why don't you go back to Qinzhou City first?" Li Shao slowly sorted out the official documents in his hand, and pretended to say, "As Lord Yang said, seeing that the war is imminent, there are still many things that need to be deployed......
Everyone else opened their mouths, and Yang Zefang naturally didn't want to continue to rely on it, so he had no choice but to stand up and say angrily:
"That being the case, I will take my leave, but I hope that the public will put state affairs first."
When I got out of the gate, I looked back at the still peaceful and calm camp behind me, and couldn't help but sigh:
"With such a mediocre general, how can you not mislead the country and the people!"
In Qinzhou City, Zhou Jingwen shirked the matter of defending the enemy everywhere, and compared with Shen Qingyun's attitude, he was already vaguely aware that the other party was afraid that he had other plans.
"Let's go back." Yang Zefang glanced at the camp behind him with a complicated expression, and gritted his teeth. Without Zhang Butcher, he still doesn't eat hairy pigs. In any case, the defense of Qinzhou must be completed within these two days.
Even if you are charged with the crime of working hard and hurting money, you must take precautions, and Qinzhou City must not allow the slightest mistake.
"Master, why don't you go back to the mansion to rest for a while?" From Qinzhou to Daying, is there nearly a hundred miles back and forth? Even when he arrived at the barracks, Shen Qingyun didn't even prepare a cup of hot tea. With such a tiring saddle horse, the warrior must be extremely tired at this time, not to mention that his master is just a literati.
"Let's go to the moat first." Due to Zhou Jingwen's non-cooperation, Yang Zefang has grasped the strategic deployment of Qinzhou in the past few days. When he left today, he specially instructed Meng Yao, the prefect of Qinzhou, to stay in the moat and supervise the affairs of the river.
It's just that Meng Yao's personality is too soft, and Yang Zefang still can't let go.
Seeing that Yang Zefang's expression was firm, the subordinates couldn't do it, so they had to follow Yang Zefang in the direction of the moat.
When they came to the bank of the river and saw the scene below, several people immediately looked at each other - how could there be half a figure on the empty moat?
However, in the thatched hermitage next to the riverbank, an old man poked his head out, put his hand on the pergola and looked in the direction of Yang Zefang and the others for a moment, and muttered:
"It's hard to stop for a while, why are there people again? Just let the horses run, not let the horses eat grass, these officials and old men are doing it in a first-class way to deceive the people. If it weren't for Lord Zhou's sensibility, I wouldn't have been coaxed to toss around here......"
Seeing that Yang Zefang and the others had already dismounted, they came this way, and waved their hands impatiently:
"Let's go, let's go, don't wander around here, Lord Qincha has an order......"
As he spoke, he had already walked closer, and when he saw that the person who came was Yang Zefang, he was so shocked that he stopped his mouth, and knelt down with a "plop":
"Yang, Lord Yang......"
"What the hell is going on?" Yang Zefang pointed to the empty river embankment.
"Adults are angry, adults are angry...... "In the winter, the old man broke out in a cold sweat, and he raised his hand and slapped himself, "It's the little old man who is confused, his mouth is full of feces, and the adult spares his life......"
"I don't care about you, you just tell me, what about the people who dig the moat?"
"People, they're all back. It is said that Lord Qincha Zhou said it, and with the protection of 100,000 troops of the imperial court, there will be nothing wrong with Qinzhou at all...... It has already spread all over the river embankment, saying that the words you promised to give food after finishing the work cannot be true, Lord Zhou said, the imperial court has limited food, and it is not allowed to be arbitrary, and it is not allowed to be misappropriated at will......"
"Bastard thing! How to be so blind! No matter how self-relict Yang Zefang is, he can't stop scolding at this time. Not to mention that the current situation in Qinzhou is critical, it is a special period, and this practice of cash-for-work is also in line with the laws of the imperial court, and it cannot be said to be misappropriated at will. It is obvious that Zhou Jingwen deliberately sang against himself.
"Master—" The subordinate was startled and hurriedly stepped forward to dissuade him. The two Qincha respected Zhou Jingwen, and he really knew that his master was afraid that he would be charged with disobedience.
Unexpectedly, Yang Zefang spat on the ground fiercely, and said angrily:
"Even to your face."
As he spoke, he turned his horse's head and galloped away in the direction of the palace.
When I came to the government office, I happened to see the prefect Meng Yao from a distance.
That Meng Yao obviously saw Yang Zefang as well, and as soon as he turned around in surprise, he wanted to avoid it. might as well Yang Zefang picked up his robe and chased after him in great stride:
"Governor Meng, stay."
Seeing that there was no way to dodge, Meng Yi had to stand still, but before Yang Zefang could speak, he had already shouted Qu:
"Lord Yang, Lord Yang, you are back. Don't you know, those Diao people, who keep saying that they are willing to work only when they see the grain, and there is no way to go to work. Listen, there's still a lot of trouble going on right now. ”
As if in response to Meng Yao's statement, there was a noise outside the mansion:
"Isn't Lord Yang back?"
"We're going to see Lord Yang."
"The government can't fool people like this."
"We've been working here for more than ten days, and we can't miss a grain of food we owe."
"How can these people be so well-informed? As soon as our lord came back, so many people gathered immediately? "Are people really stupid, so many people are waiting here, it can't be that some people have designed it a long time ago, right?
But this is not the time to care. Now that so many people are around, if you really can't get food, it will be a big mess:
"Master, you can hide first."
Yang Zefang hasn't opened his mouth yet, but he may have been discovered by the sharp-eyed people:
"Hey, isn't that Yang Qincha?"
As he spoke, a swarm of people rushed over.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Meng Yao hurriedly pulled Yang Zefang:
"Let people block it, Lord Yang should avoid it."
In my heart, I really have some sympathy for this Lord Yang.
Why don't you understand at this time, it is clear that Zhou Jingwen is deliberately cleaning up Yang Zefang. looked at Zhou Jingwen quite elegantly before, although he was not as graceful as Yang Zefang, he was also a model among literati, but now he looks like a smiling tiger.
But I have to say that Zhou Jingwen is clever in playing with this hand-
Before settling the people and giving relief to the victims, all matters were handled by Lord Yang, and after coming to Qinzhou for so many days, he had built a reputation higher than that of his own prefect. On the other hand, Lord Zhou sat firmly in the government and was comfortable.
I still wonder if Zhou Jingwen is the father-in-law of the five princes, and now that he has run to Qinzhou, where the situation is in danger, he will undoubtedly buy the hearts of the people for the five princes to the greatest extent, how can he behave so uncompromisingly. I didn't expect to wait here.
I have to say that this hand played well. Looking at Zhou Jingwen's appearance, it was obviously discussed with Shen Qingyun, as long as the moat becomes a mess, and the people in the city can't get the relief food they said before, they will definitely complain, and even the imperial history of the court will not be able to spare him.
When the rebellion was put down, what was good and light became Zhou Jingwen's credit. What rotten and dirty nature is all handed over to Yang Zefang's back.
"Governor Meng's mansion is at his own convenience." Yang Zefang didn't move. Looking at the ragged people, whose faces were blue from the cold in the winter, and even the thin and unformed seven or eight-year-old dolls in the middle, I felt a burst of panic in my chest.
Not only did he not retreat, but he took off his official hat and turned to meet him.
Meng Yao, who was left behind, was suddenly stunned - what is the great Confucian, look at it yourself, this Yang Zefang is obviously a brainless second stunned.
These victims are here to ask for food, and they can't get food and rush to deliver it, which is enough for men, but it's too stupid. Is it obvious that you are asking for your own hardship?
Only Yang Zefang has the courage, but he doesn't want to accompany him to suffer this crime. I have personally experienced the arrogance of those rebels before. If one is not handled well, it is impossible to say that these people will turn into mobs at any time.
With a complicated expression, he glanced at Yang Zefang, who was already surrounded by three layers of the people, and as soon as Meng Yi turned around, he walked towards Zhou Jingwen's courtyard.
"Surrounded by the people?" After listening to Meng Yao's words, Zhou Jingwen casually picked up the brush and looked out of the window for a while, but said something that the bull's head was not in the horse's mouth, "It's still a little hot this day." It's good for Lord Yang to cool off outside. ”
Meng Yao was stunned for a moment, but he quickly understood that Zhou Jingwen meant that Yang Zefang was hot-headed and nosy?!
Dengshi's face was bitter, is this considered a lot, the gods fight, and the little ghost suffers! Only this Lord Zhou's meaning is also clear, and he is clearly willing to come forward only when Yang Zefang comes to beg him for a big ugly. That's right, at that time, taking out the food promised before can not only win the love of the people in an instant, but also make Yang Zefang unable to raise his head again.
Unexpectedly, it was just a cup of tea, and suddenly someone hurriedly ran into the courtyard:
"My lord, my lord, go and take a look, there are a lot of grain trucks outside the mansion, saying yes, Lord Yang asked me to send ......"
"What?" Zhou Jingwen was stunned for a moment, threw down the pen in his hand with a "snap", and the words that were about to be written were suddenly dripping with ink, and they were all ruined, "Ridiculous!" Where did Yang Zefang get the courage to dare to distribute relief food privately? ”
He didn't even bother to take the cloak handed over by his subordinates, and walked away with a cold face.
"My lord—" Meng Yao was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly ran out.
When I came outside, I found that the crowd that was still noisy just now was really gone, but outside the government office, there were more than a dozen big cars lined up, covered with thick tarpaulin, and even on the street in the distance, there were big cars coming in a steady stream.
Meng Yao gasped when he saw it - so much food, the relief grain sent by the imperial court before was not so much.
Could it be that Yang Zefang pulled it all out?
"Yang Zefang, you are so bold." Zhou Jing's beard was cocked, "This is the imperial court's rations, how dare you distribute it indiscriminately?" Believe it or not, this official will refer to you. ”
The voice was too loud, causing the people who were queuing up to receive food to turn their heads one after another, and looked at Zhou Jingwen's expression with obvious anger. 166 Reading Network
