The prefectural magistrate hadn't eaten so much for many months, and although he didn't eat the same food as the victims, he didn't have meat or vegetables. He didn't want to leave.

The concubine told Emperor Taizu that she wanted to live here and didn't want to go to the county government.

Li Qing knew that his master must be with him Lord Yushi, so he said: "A few people still live with me, living in the city may not be as safe as me, and now the outside is not peaceful." And even the county government can't eat my food here. “

Zhu Biao asked: "Why is Lin'an County not peaceful, we haven't seen any trouble all the way." "Just now, Emperor Taizu watched the recital, but he didn't make a noise, and some of them needed time to inquire.

The county order said: "Master Zhu doesn't know, the people who made trouble before were all arrested by Master Li. There are twelve people in total, and now there are five still alive, locked up in our county office. I sent men to watch for twelve hours, lest they commit suicide, for ten of the twelve were captured alive and five of them committed suicide. The situation at that time has been recorded and reported to the imperial court. “

Zhu Biao asked, "Which Master Li?" Then he saw the county commander's gaze looking at Li Qing, and Li Qing pointed at himself. Zhu Biao was surprised and happy in his heart, surprised that something really happened in Lin'an County, and happy that his apprentice solved it.

Emperor Taizu patted Zhu Biao's shoulder and said, "You apprentice, it's really good, not bad." Emperor Taizu's compliment made Zhu Biao very happy, and Zhu Biao's eyes when he looked at other civil officials became more arrogant.

Li Qing led everyone up the mountain, and said as he walked: "In order to ensure the safety of the adults, it is better for the adults to live on the mountain." The mountain is a place I bought in the name of my master, and it is difficult for even the villagers to go up. “

The group followed Li Qing up the mountain, and they all wondered why it was covered all around, and they could faintly see green and yellow.

The corners of Li Qing's mouth turned up slightly and said, "What do you think of here?" Everyone nodded, and such a scene could still be seen in the drought-stricken area, which showed Li Qing's excellence.

They passed through the stockade, and the people they met along the way greeted Li Qing, and Li Qing went home. When they arrived at Zhuangzi on the mountain, Li Qing assigned them a room.

Kong Yu pointed to one place and asked, "That place should be the place where the water source is, right?" “

Li Qing nodded and said, "It's still Master Kong, I'll take you over to have a look." Li Qing walked over, opened one place and walked in, and the others also walked in, it was very hot inside, there was light everywhere, there were water droplets everywhere on the oil paper, and there was a constant ticking sound.

Li Qing said: "Let's go out with me after reading it, those who cover the trees are all for this purpose, store more water." ”

Li Qing arranged for the concubine to rest, and then asked people to prepare water and ice for her, and the concubine thanked Li Qing for her special care. Li Qing said that it was because she was a woman, so she took special care of her, so she didn't have to mind.

Kong Yu asked, "Can I ask my nephew?" I've just calculated the size of the pool, and even with the trees, it's not enough for so many people. Can you ask your nephew to explain your doubts? “

Li Qing said: "Yes, but I can only tell you and your master, it's late today, I think you are all tired, I will take you to a place early tomorrow morning." “

Emperor Taizu nodded in agreement and went back to his room to rest.

Early the next morning, Li Qing motioned to Kong Yu and Emperor Taizu to follow him, and Zhu Biao naturally followed. The others got the hint from Emperor Taizu and stayed.

Li Qing took the three of them to the underground reservoir. The three of them were surprised when they looked at the underground reservoir, and none of them thought that there was a cave here. They were surprised not by the amount of water in this place, but by the size of the mountain.

Kong Yu asked, "Nephew, I just saw that the water here is all brought in from outside. And with the area here, it is estimated that it will not be completed in one or two years. ”

Li Qing nodded, indicating that Kong Yu had guessed correctly, and also said that this place was confidential, and only the backbone of Li Qing's realm and the people who built it knew about it.

Zhu Biao felt that there was something wrong, but he couldn't say it. I just felt that after their master came in, he became serious.

Kong Yu asked again: "This place is so big, why did the nephew only think about the trapped water and didn't think about raising soldiers?" Just now I saw that the soldiers on the mountain are all sergeants' training methods. When Zhu Biao heard this, he finally thought of something wrong, he had never taught the training method of a sergeant back then.

Li Qing didn't even think about it and said, "I don't want to rebel, why raise soldiers?" You think the emperor is so good! The emperor is not a human job, give me for nothing, I won't do it. As he spoke, he led them inside, and since he had come in, he had to let them see his work and show it up.

Kong Yu asked again: "Where do you know the training methods of these sergeants?" ”

Li Qing said: "This is a long sentence, and it will be unclear for a while." I told them, and you don't necessarily know them. ”

Zhu Biao became interested, and he seemed to know which bold person did it. "Tell me, maybe I know." ”

Li Qing said: "One is named Li Jin, I heard that he is a big red man in front of Emperor Taizu, the son of General Zhu's adjutant, and he made a hand in the Zhu family's knife technique. There is also a man named Sima Yunyi, who said that his eldest brother was an apprentice of Zhu Dahongren. Master is also surnamed Zhu, are you and Zhu Dahong in the same family? How can I meet everyone who knows the Zhu family's knife technique? ”

Zhu Biao said vaguely: "I'll introduce you when I go back, they are all brothers of my own family." "I thought that Yang Ye couldn't even manage the adjutant, and Sima Yunfei couldn't even manage his younger brother, and the sergeant training could still be taught casually.

Emperor Taizu saw that what Li Qing said did not seem to be a lie, his expression changed from serious to convulsive, and he looked at Zhu Biao twice. thought to himself: Sima Yunfei and Yang Ye are really dead this time. Emperor Taizu asked: "You also think that the emperor is not good, the emperor is not a human worker, so what is it?" ”

Li Qing didn't expect that Lord Yushi was entangled in this, and suddenly understood that he was an official of the emperor, and he must not be able to listen to others say that the emperor was not good.

Li Qing said solemnly: "The emperor is not a person", Zhu Biao shouted Li Xiao. Emperor Taizu waved his hand and motioned for Zhu Biao not to make a sound. Asked Li Qing what it was if he wasn't a human being.

Li Qing whispered: "That's a god, only a god can take care of so many things." He has endless twists and turns to watch and big things to deal with every day. The stability of the country is better, if there is a natural or man-made disaster, it is the emperor who is not virtuous. It's good to deal with it, it's okay to say; If you don't handle it well, you will be said to be a faint king. Besides, there are many women in the emperor, but he also has time to enjoy the beauty. In addition to dealing with the government every day, he is dealing with the government affairs, in addition to reviewing and reviewing the folds. How could that be human work? ”

When Emperor Taizu heard what Li Qing said, they were very satisfied at first, and the more they listened, the more they felt that it sounded so awkward.

Li Qing laughed twice and said, "Don't talk about state affairs, don't talk about state affairs." ”
