Chapter 148: The Wind Will Rise
Since the Lantern Festival, no matter what the excuse is, the Liu family has been closed. However, Liu Chengshuang still has to go to the yamen after all, and Liu Yunyang is going to take the college exam this year, so he and his husband asked for leave and studied hard at home.
This day is the second day of the second month of February, and there are a lot of talks about the folk dragon raising its head, as well as dragon and lion dances. But Yunxiang's family's thoughts were all on the matter of grain seeds.
Rice planting will be carried out from the end of March to the middle of April, and the grain seeds must be distributed as soon as possible, and the method of raising seedlings also needs to be taught to everyone. So each county recruited some people from each village to learn how to raise seedlings and to receive grain seeds by the way.
I have been learning the method of raising seedlings for a few days, but it is not difficult. However, the grain was not distributed for a long time.
As early as last year, after the second season of rice was harvested, it was transported to a specially set up warehouse in Fucheng. However, when it was time to distribute the grain seeds, the little official who looked at the warehouse came to report that the warehouse did not know when the rain was leaking, and more than half of the grain seeds had become moldy, and I was afraid that they could not be used.
The new prefect was like an ant on a hot pot, first imprisoned Bingding and the little officials who were guarding the warehouse, and then gathered all the people below to discuss countermeasures.
Zhizhou Guo Yu held his beard and said, "Liu Zhoutong should be responsible for these things, and the adults just told him to find a way." ”
Liu Chengshuang smiled bitterly, "My lord, Xia Guan only took office after the New Year. "That kind of Ziyuan was responsible for the previous term, but Liu Chengshuang has just taken office, and everyone understands whose fault it is. But unfortunately, the person in charge of the previous term. It is Guo Yu, the Zhizhou who entered.
Guo Yuhu said with a face, "Do you mean to let this official be responsible for you?" You are the kind of person who provides this, is it possible that you still want to shirk responsibility? Hurry up and think of a good solution. Let's get this over first, otherwise, everyone won't get any good! ”
Liu Chengshuang's face turned red, "My lord, the original seeds were enough, but now they are more than half, is it possible for me to conjure them up for you out of thin air?" ”
The prefect was noisy and had a headache. Slam the table, "Shut up!" It's all about time! What's the use of being noisy! Let's hurry up and see how the remaining seeds are distributed! ”
Liu Chengshuang thought about it and suggested. "Why don't we choose a few counties for distribution first, and wait until the first crop of rice is harvested before implementing it?"
"How can this work? If it is implemented, it must be implemented in Fucheng first. These big families have been waiting for a long time, and if we flash them over, it will be troublesome. Guo Yu shook his head. I very much disagree with Liu Chengshuang's statement.
"So what do you say?" The prefect looked at Guo Yu.
Guo Yu said with a smile. "It's better to implement it in the government first, and the rest of the seeds will be planted by large households in various counties. They have a lot of fertile land, so we can get the tax and rice seeds for the first crop, and then distribute the seeds to others from the second crop. What do adults think? ”
"This ......," the prefect hesitated.
Liu Chengshuang resolutely disagreed, "If you do this, the people will definitely be unconvinced, and it will inevitably cause chaos." ”
"It's just ordinary people, how can there be any chaos? It's the big and the rich. Most of them have some backers and backgrounds, if they are dissatisfied. We're in more trouble. ”
Liu Chengshuang is not good at arguing in the end, and his official position is not high, so in the end he can only express his dissatisfaction by keeping silent.
The matter was settled, and Liu Chengshuang went home dejectedly. Zhou always sighed when he saw that he was listless, and only then did he think of what was going on. So he persuaded, "Anyway, this matter is just a drama after all, and you are very involved!" ”
Liu Chengshuang was indeed too deeply involved in the play, and when he heard this, he said with a smile, "I'm really not an official, how can this person really worry about the people?" Only care about their own black yarn hat! Alas! ”
Zhou also shook his head, "Didn't the drama say that thousands of miles of officials are only for money?" I think it's better to be a rich man. ”
Liu Chengshuang nodded approvingly, "What you said is right, I think it's better to live in a backing village." It's really uncomfortable here. I don't know what's going on at home! ”
Zhou also nodded, "In charge, when the son and daughter are settled, why don't we both go back to the main house in the mountain village to live?" ”
Liu Chengshuang nodded, "It's a good idea, but when the children become families, we will all be old." At that time, I was no longer an official, and I still went to grow crops. ”
The two of them were talking about the excitement here, but they didn't know that there was already a commotion outside.
"My lord, those people have gathered a lot, and it is estimated that as soon as the news officially spreads tomorrow, it will really make trouble." Gao Shuang came in and replied.
Gu Mo coldly hooked the corners of his mouth, "I've waited for so long, it's finally time." This big fish is too hidden. Now, no matter how comfortable he was in the water, he had to jump to the shore. ”
Gao Shuang also smiled, "My lord, the net has been opened, when do you think the hand is appropriate?" ”
"Don't worry, we must wait until they really have the fact of rebellion. Your Majesty is waiting to confirm the evidence of the Spirit King's rebellion! Gu Mo played with the jade pendant in his hand, which was meaningful.
It is believed that the spirit king rebelled back then is actually insufficient evidence, but at that time, when His Majesty ascended the throne, several princes were fighting with red eyes, can one less be one, who will stand up and speak for him? Regardless of whether the rebellion was true or not, the spirit king was raided, and only the orphan and widow were left lurking with some of the spirit king's loyal subordinates. Now, they are raising the flag to rebel again, but they just confirm their identity.
"Go to Liu's house to borrow the falcon to use it, I have to pass on the matter here to His Majesty as soon as possible, so as not to cause anyone to interfere." After Gu Mo finished speaking to Gao Shuang, he frowned, "Forget it, I'll go by myself." ”
Gao Shuang opened his mouth and watched Gu Mo's figure disappear into the night, and suddenly thought that the eldest lady of the Liu family was going to die this year, and a very unreliable conjecture rose in his heart. My lord, this is ...... Enlightened?
Gu Mo, who was guessed to be enlightened, was not at Miss Liu's place at the moment, but in the courtyard of the second miss.
"So, it's just the last few days?" Yun Xiang frowned, "I'll let my father be sick tomorrow." ”
Gu Mo nodded, "I'm afraid there will be trouble tomorrow, and your family will bear the brunt, don't go out." ”
"Has that person been moving lately?" Yun Xiang didn't say who it was, and Gu Mo also understood what she meant.
"Stare, it seems that there is something wrong with it." Gu Mo sneered, "I guess their family must be connected to the Mi family, so they won't know where he went outside the door, and he only reads sage books." (To be continued......)
