Chapter 512: The King of Mushroom Mountain
At the end of June, the envoys of the imperial court finally couldn't help it!
It's been almost half a year, who can bear it?
If Wang Lanling doesn't come to receive people, then they will send people over!
After the third wave of rewards given to Wang Lanling by the imperial court arrived, the first two batches of envoys had to follow together.
Hong Jingyang has been busy with the disaster in the past few days, and he has also extinguished the idea of assassinating Wang Lanling, so he has not continued to keep those people.
It's summer, and it's the hottest time of the year.
Most of the territory is not affected by flooding, but the territory here is too big, and there are always some problems in some places.
This year something went wrong.
There was an event of illness in a county town in the territory of Muzhou, and the person who got sick would become ugly and blind.
Hong Jingyang has already sent someone to deal with it, but there is no result yet.
This kind of thing is actually very common in many places, and ordinary people can't get in touch with it, so they feel rare.
Hong Jingyang carefully looked at the report written by the scholars of the medical hall below.
The current view is that the main cause of the disease was a chemical leak, mainly due to the discharge of wastewater into the river for many years from a lamp factory between Tianmu and Muzhou.
This person's point of view is that it is the rainy season, and the river where the lamp factory discharges wastewater is a living river, and although the disease is not contagious, as long as it continues to discharge things into the water, more people will suffer.
The lamp factory made the light bulb, and in this era, the lamp used by people was a chemiluminescent device, which was a decorative object that was preferred by the rich and nobles.
This kind of lamp can change the color according to different faces, although the intensity of the light is not high, but people like this hazy halo.
For example, some high-end brothels will buy some red shimmer lights to decorate the atmosphere.
So this is undoubtedly a high-end luxury, and it is the Jiang family of Muzhou Mansion who runs this.
Not only that, the annual finances of the Muzhou Government are basically supported by the factories and industries of the Jiang family, and once these people are offended, this year's finances will look good.
After thinking about it for a while, Hong Jingyang put aside the report given by the expert and looked at the next report.
The report was written by another expert, and by the highest-ranking medical officer in the prefecture.
The report is long, and the whole thing revolves around ...... Plague!
There are many pastures in the pasture, and it is normal for the grassland to have rats.
It is normal for people in the countryside to eat rats, or to be bitten by rats, and to get plague.
The plague, that's a natural disaster.
The plague is contagious.
Hong Jingyang knew very well what was going on, the plague had long been controlled by the empire, and so many barefoot doctors had been doing a lot for decades.
Even religion is preventing all kinds of diseases in the name of the gods.
If it was the plague, the local people would control it and report it to him.
But now it can only be the plague, Hong Jingyang is not Wang Lanling, his family has a big business, and he can't stand the toss.
After a brief hesitation, Hong Jingyang sent someone to submit the report.
[The plague breeds, and in order to fear the spread of the disease, the minister asks to isolate this place. 】
Isolation...... The isolation in this feudal era is not the kind of isolation that modern people think.
Burn!
Since you can't solve the problem, then solve the person who created the problem.
The people who create the problem are not polluters, they are the victims of those who want to speak out.
As long as these people are dead, then there will naturally be no victims, and the world will naturally be peaceful.
The letter quickly left the government office, but the people in the post house did not go out of the city directly to deliver the letter, but turned a corner and sent it to the Jiang family.
The local Jiang family is called Jiang Yanqing, and the title is also Marquis.
There are actually not many marquis of the empire, and Wang Lanling's achievements are too significant, both in terms of civil and military achievements.
In addition, the old emperor didn't know Wang Lanling's title before, and after realizing that Wang Lanling was already a marquis on a small hill, there was no way to change it.
It stands to reason that the marquis of mountains, rivers, lakes and seas is a lifelong thing, and it is the kind of title that will only be given when he returns to his hometown.
Fortunately, the old emperor was very experienced in degrading people's titles, so in the end he recognized Wang Lanling's marquis title.
For example, Montenegro Bowangu is different, the empire has no enemies, at most it is some bandits and small-scale rebellions, so there is no place to brush up on merits.
If Wan Gu goes to defeat the bandits in Wild Horse Ridge, his merits will definitely not be enough to seal the marquis.
Wang Lanling fought too beautifully, and he was so beautiful in several consecutive military operations that he was speechless.
Coupled with the publication of a book, his reputation is prominent, and it is enough to be a marquis.
The old emperor is not a fool, he also needs a person with prestige to come to the town and suppress the rebellion in Muzhou, so it is a sure thing to give Wang Lanling the title of Marquis.
Wang Lanling was made a marquis by merit, and the only people in this era, such as Jiang Yanqing, were the marquis who fell from their father's prince.
After Jiang Yanqing looked at Hong Jingyang's report, he nodded and said, "Just follow this." ”
"Yes!"
The men quickly received the order, and then remade a new package.
This is not the first time they have done this kind of thing, and they are very skilled in business.
The family member on the face of this Muzhou Mansion is Hong Jingyang, but whether it is a local official or a family hero, they all listen to him Jiang Yanqing!
If you want to say who Jiang Yanqing is most afraid of in Muzhou Mansion, it is definitely not Hong Jingyang's power in one state, but Wang Lanling's three-step power that can really soar blood!
Wang Lanling's warning letter to Hong Peiren, the Jiang family knows it, and they all know that Wang Lanling is not easy to mess with.
"It seems that Hong Jingyang is unwilling to do it, so let's do it!"
Jiang Yanqing has been waiting for Hong Jingyang to kill Wang Lanling, and now Hong Jingyang refuses to do it, so they can only come.
This Wang Lanling must die!
--- dividing line---
In the seventh year of civil and military affairs, June 26, the weather was fine.
Wang Lanling received a letter from the people in the state capital, saying that all the envoys had set off and would arrive in Shanhai County in three days.
Putting down the report in his hand, Wang Lanling showed a contemplative look.
There is no doubt that it will continue to be delayed!
It's been delaying for half a year, how can you give up halfway?
At present, there is really no other good way, but to delay, until the other party can't afford to consume, or forget about this matter.
There are still at least three months left before the heavy snow, how can we continue to delay it for another three months?
This is a problem.
When he was thinking about things, Chai Tuo walked into the county office.
"County magistrate! There was a mass poisoning incident at the lumber yard, and some people did not listen to the persuasion and insisted on adding some wild mushrooms to the pot, as a result, at least 20 people are now vomiting and diarrhea, and the people from the health center and the nuns and monks have gone to treat them. ”
In Shanhai County, eating mushrooms and dying is not an uncommon thing, but a normal thing.
Some people can't be stopped.
Even if someone around you eats mushrooms and dies, no one takes it seriously, and they still get a few wild mushrooms from the mountain to cook soup and drink them.
These people used to have nothing to do, but now they are obviously able to eat enough, and they are still doing these things all day long.
Wang Lanling didn't let these people go to the Xianshui Palace, but mushrooms didn't grow only in the Xianshui Palace.
On the contrary, because I don't go to the flowing water source of the Xianshui Palace to eat mushrooms, there are more people who eat hallucinogenic mushrooms, and everyone likes to go to some dark valleys or old forests to find mushrooms.
These people are looking for excitement, and most of the natives in Shanhai County are relatively ignorant, eating wild mushrooms has become one of the ways for locals to brag and practice their courage.
Fortunately, after IQ elimination, there are not as many people who eat wild mushrooms as in the previous two years.
"Well, just do it as you normally would."
Wang Lanling casually ordered, because this kind of thing always happens two or three times a year, so the emergency measures are very sound.
"Yes!" Chai Tuo didn't take it seriously, although the incident of more than 20 people being poisoned shouldn't be a trivial matter, but after seeing more than that, I felt that it was actually like that.
After Chai Tuo walked out, Wang Lanling's eyes flashed!
