Chapter 169: Ancestral Time

The floods in July affected the three southern state capitals, and Wuzhou was the most severely affected, but the casualties were not large, which can be regarded as a blessing. Xiong Le and Qiu Jing, officials of the Ministry of Industry who inspected the river defense in Wuzhou, were rescued, and are now on their way back to Beijing.

It's just that people are watching the sky, no matter how much you take, the way of heaven always wants you to pay it back. The fertile land reclaimed has been re-transformed into a lake, and there are no trees available for felling mountains, and all the pearl mussels and fishing goods that occupy the lake have been returned to the river.

There are also county orders in the four counties south of the Yangtze River who absconded in fear of crime after failing to murder the imperial court officials, which involved the huge number of crimes of these people in office. The most terrible thing is that the imperial court sent officials to raid their homes, but there were no copies of the four walls of the house. The case involved a wide range of people, from the senators directly under the jurisdiction of the four counties to the small officials who did not enter the yamen, were all arrested, and after interrogation day and night, they finally learned some information.

The funds allocated by the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Households to repair the river have long been divided from top to bottom, and the county order takes the most, followed by the Shangguan, and everyone else has a share.

As for where the money went, and where did these county people go, it turned out to be a headless public case.

Until today, the remnants of the king of Qiyang, the remnants of the Yin Dynasty, the horse farm privately raised war horses, the Fenzhou Tongzhou privately minted official money, the Shu land mined well salt, and I don't know where the road has been mining copper mines that provide private coinage, so many clues are interlocking, pulling out a huge conspiracy.

These people, I am afraid, have been plotting a rebellion for a long time, and they are only waiting for the time to be ripe, and when there is chaos, they will start to start an uprising.

During this time, the six Shangshu and the ministers of the imperial court came and went to the imperial study in an endless stream, and they were often left overnight, just to be able to ask about politics at any time. Chu Rui felt the biggest crisis since he ascended the throne, and this crisis had threatened his throne and the people of the country.

All this, Gu Qing, who was bored in the back house, naturally didn't know about it, she only knew that she had a hand tremor in her left hand since the last vertigo, and it wouldn't be better.

Not only is her hands shaking, but sometimes when she sits still, she can feel her head unconsciously dotting. Fortunately, there was no crooked mouth and eyes or a straight stream, otherwise she really didn't know what to do.

When you are only in your twenties, you can be regarded as helpless to encounter the experience that you may have encountered when you were fifty or sixty years old.

Li Mao was recalled by the emperor to the court as early as the fifth day of Gu Qing's illness, and the floods were repeated and came out again, and all localities had to mobilize local troops to maintain local order. These are all matters of the Ministry of War, and Li Mao, as the chief officer, has an unshirkable responsibility, so he can only hand over the affairs of serving the sick at home to the young Li Rui and Li Ming, and go back to run errands.

Li Ming also has to take care of his sister and care about the things in his mother's house, at a young age, it seems that since he became an "elder brother", he has become much more mature and reliable overnight.

Now he can hold his sister decently and coax her not to cry, but he is young after all, and many subordinates dare not let him stand and hug, so he can only sit and hug Li Mei.

Li Rui still stays in his grandmother's room all day long, and only stays outside at night. During this period, many people came to visit, including the county lord of Deyang, who later got that Xiong Le was fine and gradually cheered up. Also coming were Xiong Ping, who visited his friends, and the county lord of Wanning.

Seeing that the two cousins had close friends, Li Ming said that he was very surprised.

"So Qiu Mu and Xiong Ping's father didn't have anything to do, and then the Chinese army came and rescued them?" Gu Qing sat on the couch and chatted with his grandson Li Rui, "Why did you say that Zhang Xuan saved these two people?" This is too much of a coincidence! ”

"yes, what a coincidence. I heard that someone came to chase and kill later, and Zhang Xuan's two senior brothers took the Taoist soldiers to subdue the thief and arrest him. Li Ruizhi said that his grandmother had been dizzy since her body had problems, and she couldn't go to the vegetable garden, and she couldn't even hold her grandson, and she was bored in the house all day long, which was really boring, so she had to tell her about the interesting things outside.

He knew that his grandmother liked to listen to Zhixia's stories, so he deliberately said in a mysterious tone: "I heard that one of Zhang Xuan's senior brothers is a master of the inner door of Taoism, and one of the younger brothers is the eldest grandson of a famous family in the rivers and lakes, proficient in secret weapons, and the two of them joined hands, and the thief who fought was a falling flower and flowing water......

As soon as Gu Qing heard that there were really rivers and lakes in this world, his eyes lit up, and his expression seemed as if he was going to catch that Zhang Xuan's senior brother and brother to ask what was going on, and even the mood that had been a little low was high.

"Is there really a river and lake? I should have seen him when Xiong Ping came to you yesterday, what did he say, his father returned to the capital later, was there someone in the rivers and lakes to escort him? Since Zhang Xuan's junior brother is the eldest grandson of a famous family in the rivers and lakes, why did he become a Taoist priest? Gu Qing asked a series of questions, "Does the Taoist inner door have internal strength?" Does practicing internal functions prolong life? ”

Gu Qing choked Li Rui's question, and could only answer in a speculative tone.

"This ...... There should be rivers and lakes, I heard that there were many people in the rivers and lakes who helped at the beginning of the founding of this dynasty. Later, the government soldiers rowed a boat to pick up the two adults, and there was no escort from the rivers and lakes. I heard that those thieves are all from the rivers and lakes. Zhang Xuan's younger brother...... Probably a home channel? ”

Gu Qing couldn't hear any excitement, so he could only say "oh" regretfully.

There is still a difference of 108,000 miles between the imperial court, the capital and the rivers and lakes. Even Mama Hua, who is strong in martial arts, doesn't know what is going on in the rivers and lakes, nor does she know what the world outside the Dao is like.

Why not. She has been trapped in this back house since she came in, except for this acre and three points of land, and she is also wandering around this capital. How big is it outside, what is it like, she used to drag her old body and couldn't go, but now she is sick, let alone go to see it.

Li Rui saw that Gu Qing's mood was low again, and he hurriedly gaged, wanting to make her happy.

At this moment, the girls and mothers-in-law carried Li Mei into the house, and Li Ming also followed. It turned out that the little girl woke up, drank milk, changed diapers, and was in good spirits, so Li Ming took her sister to her grandmother's house.

Li Rui gave Li Ming a "just right" look, Li Ming smiled proudly at his brother, turned his head to his grandmother and said:

"Grandma, my sister woke up and looked around, I thought that she probably missed grandma too, so I was looking for you, so I asked the people to bring my sister over. Didn't bother you, did you? ”

"I didn't quarrel, I didn't quarrel, I wanted to kiss too, I haven't seen each other for a few days." Gu Qing smiled and beckoned, "It's all your fuss, I'm just dizzy and shaking, why can't I look at my kiss?" Can you be tired of looking at a little doll? ”

Li Rui has a little itchy teeth, the little pony spirit now brings a little pony spirit, there was originally only a small competition for favor, and now there are three together with Li Zhao, this little one has her own brother to teach experience, and she will also be a sticky spirit crying bag in the future, and her status in her grandmother's heart must not be low.

If this continues, he will only have the place to stand in the corner!

The next person hugged the kiss over, because it was the middle of summer, the old lady was weak and did not put the ice basin, but let the next person hold a fan to fan the wind, so the grandmother who was responsible for taking care of the little doll gave the little lady's thin bag to the quilt, so that the child was only wearing a thin layer of summer clothes, this bag was gone, and the soft flesh whirred so that everyone in the room was heartbroken, and the flower grandmother took a step forward to take the child and hold it herself.

This child doesn't know who Lu Dao looks like, and he didn't look much older when he was born, but now he is as long as he has blown up a balloon, and his face and body are full of meat, fortunately, his skin is not like his father, otherwise he will be black and fat, and Gu Qing will have to worry about this child.

Gu Qing has already agreed with Mama Hua that when the child is full of the moon and has a full moon wine, she will admit that she will be the grandmother of Li Mei in the future, and she will let her support her in the future.

Mama Hua hugged her and sent her to Gu Qing, Gu Qing touched the child's hands, feet and neck, and found that it was all sweat, so she hurriedly asked someone to change the child's shorts and shirts, and she was not allowed to wear long ones.

There is no electric fan here and no air conditioning, although the temperature in the bungalow is cooler than in modern times, but the ancients seem to firmly believe that it is better for children to wear more than less, and they still dare not let the little master be naked in this summer, and would rather be tired to play a fan on the side, rather than let them wear less, Gu Qing looked tired and panicked for them.

"Old lady, Miss has only been born for more than 20 days now, and if you wear it short, you are afraid that you will catch a cold. It's still long to wear, at most we play more fans, so that the young lady doesn't get hot. ”

Li Mei's grandmother's surname is Song, and she is a suitable grandmother selected by Hua Mama, who has given birth to four children, all of whom are healthy and have a harmonious temperament.

"Children are not afraid of the cold, but they are most afraid of the heat. On such a day, it is enough to wear a short shirt, but a thin hat still needs to be worn, and the top of her head has not grown well, so she can't stand the wind. "Gu Qing has seen a lot of babies born in the summer in modern times, so he wears a belly pocket and is carried around the hospital, and he doesn't see anyone who has been wearing a long fan.

The child's own body temperature regulation is already poor, and if you play a fan, you can't learn to dissipate heat by yourself.

Mama Song persuaded her a few times, but seeing that Gu Qing seemed to be disapproving, she could only sigh and resigned herself to asking the girl to go back to the room to get a short shirt for her to change into.

Xiao Li Mei also seemed to feel that it was very comfortable after the clothes were missing, and she smiled happily as soon as she changed the short ones, and her two little hands also moved, which shows that children also know how to be warm and cold.

Gu Qing touched her granddaughter's hand, looked at Li Rui as if she wanted to touch it but didn't dare to touch it, and couldn't help but smile.

I was going to tease him last time, but I almost fell my granddaughter, and I also had a stroke, and I didn't have any fun, and the whole family was scared to death. It was unexpected.

It's just that now even Li Ming can hug his sister in a decent way, but Li Rui still looks like "I love you in my heart and my hands are hard to stretch", which makes Gu Qing want him to learn to hold children even more.

"Mama Hua, hand the kiss to Rui'er and hug it." Gu Qing patted Mama Hua's hand and pointed at Li Rui.

Li Rui was taken aback.

"Grandma, I'd better forget it. No, let Brother Ming hug it. ”

"You are an elder brother, and you said that you want to be an example, but Ming'er has learned everything, and you haven't hugged it yet!" Gu Qing deliberately straightened his face and made an angry look. "In a situation like last time, if I didn't hug your sister, you wouldn't even hug you, wouldn't you hurt your sister?"

Li Rui is actually a little eager to try it in his heart, but he loves his sister and doubts that his thoughts always prevail, and now that Gu Qing is training, he can only obediently follow behind Mama Hua to learn how to hold the child.

When Li Rui had finally learned the skill of "holding a baby" under the guidance of Li Ming and Mama Hua, after holding his sister tremblingly, he couldn't help laughing, and his body began to sway gently.

It's like seeing other adults do it.

"Ahh Li Rui hugged and hugged him, and suddenly let out a call.

Gu Qing and Mama Hua were both startled, and hurriedly stretched out their heads to take a look. Li Ming immediately came over, and then turned his head and laughed.

"What's wrong?" Gu Qing asked anxiously. Li Rui's face was as if he had seen the sky break in front of him.

"...... Grandma ......" Li Rui stiffened and moved his hand holding his sister's buttocks.

"My sister peed ......"

The author has something to say: I lost a lot of weight in today's chapter, I suddenly started to feel dizzy and vomiting halfway through writing, and after my husband sent me to the hospital for a CT scan, the doctor said that I had cervical spondylosis, and today was the first episode. I used to have some shoulder and lower back pain, and I didn't have any neck problems, so I didn't know how cervical spondylosis was attacked. After resting for four or five hours, the dizziness symptoms are better now, so I sent the afternoon code. Although I am very thin, I have done my best, and I hope you will bear with me.
