At the beginning of the morning, the breeze dawned, and the edge of the West Lake was hot, and the surface was just built. The whole \ book \ small \ said \ net because the preparatory work has begun at the time of the opening of the lake, so when the money and food are in place. As long as an order is given, in just one or two days, the state government can gather tens of thousands of people.

These craftsmen are drawn from the counties and towns of Hangzhou, and there are many people and miscellaneous things, which once again tests the organization and coordination ability of Hangzhou officials; nbsp; Fortunately, he already had some experience in reconciling the victims before, and Fan Zhongyan was in charge of this matter, and he once commanded more than 100,000 soldiers and civilians, and tens of thousands of people. Naturally, there is no problem.

There is no need to gather officials to discuss, and with a wave of the ink pen, a few documents will be issued, and everything will be arranged properly. Tens of thousands of people are orderly distributed along the shores of the West Lake, and now everything is ready, waiting to consult with the river officials to open the sluice gates and release water.

In order to prevent the Kuwei River tide from soaking into the West Lake. In the past, some officials deliberately built two weir embankments to block the tide and keep the river water in the urban area clear, but in the Zhenzong period, some officials did not understand the intention of the predecessors, demolished the weir gate without authorization, and tried to facilitate the passage of merchant ships, which led to the endless troubles of silting up the canal year after year.

Later, of course, the official was punished. The weir was also repaired, but in order to prevent such a thing from happening again, the imperial court specially ordered the weir gate to be taken over by the river officials. nbsp; Local officials want to open the lake to discharge waternbsp; nbsp; It is also necessary to reach an agreement with them to prevent future local officials from making arbitrary changes that may lead to the recurrence of the problem.

However, there is an official document issued by the imperial court as evidence. Opening the lake and draining the water becomes very simple; nbsp; Moreover, the officials of Helu did not have the courage to make things difficult, and after receiving the order, Fan Zhongyan was very cooperative in hoisting the sluice gate, and the lake water poured out at a speed that could be distinguished by the naked eye. After about half an hour, the surface of the West Lake was reduced by half, revealing a thick accumulation of silt and aquatic weeds.

On the south shore of Xihu Lake, seeing this situation, Fan Zhongyan slightly signaled the ten soldiers who had been on standby for a long time next to him, and immediately rode their horses into two roads, one left and one right, and galloped away, leaving a trail of dust and smoke.

Taishou ordered to start construction of the lake immediately. The sound of the soldiers' calls slowly disappeared from near and far, and the people gathered on the shore of the West Lake in the wind did not need to be urged by the officials next to them, and they all walked into the lake with their tools; nbsp; Weeding and digging up.

The toiling of ancient peasants was not empty words. In addition to farming and farming, they also have to afford the succession of the official government all year round, and there are no days to rest at all, but it is precisely because of this, their resilience is unimaginable, and the drought is slightly alleviated. Only before he could return home and clean up the mess received an order from the government, even if he had a grudge in his heart, he could only hurry here.

But when they know what's going on. The resentment in his heart suddenly disappeared, because this time Shujun West Lake did not belong to the unpaid Majesty's labor, not only did he have money and food to take, but also for the people who lived near Hangzhou City, there was a double surprise.

In order to dilute the West Lake, two major problems must be solved. The first is that it takes a lot of money to control the lake, but it has now been solved; nbsp; The second is how to place the large amount of silt excavated, after all, the West Lake is ten miles wide, and it is roughly estimated that the excavated silt can cover the city of Hangzhou.

It is certainly not suitable to be placed in the city, and it is easy to block the road when placed outside the city, but after weighing. Placing it nearby is an inevitable choice, and if it is modern, it can be transported out of the city by a few trucks. No matter how far away it is, it's not a problem, but in ancient times. Most of the people's means of transportation are still hand-pushed

If you travel long distances, the cost will increase. Besides, there is no time to do it, after all, it is easy to dredge the mud and transport the mud far away.

The problem is that the roads outside the city extend in all directions; nbsp; Merchants come from all over the world, and it must cause inconvenience to the merchants who pass by, and the people in the city have to go in and out every day, and it is impossible to agree to be placed in this way; nbsp; Therefore, the disposal of sludge has become a headache.

However, it is obvious that Fan Zhongyan has already made a calculation, and before Chu Zhen can come up with his own plan, he has already solved the problem, and he thinks that the silt in the lake can be used as fertilizer for farmland, which can be transported to the fields outside the city and paved. After all, Shujun West Lake has also harmed the interests of some people, which can be regarded as a kind of compensation.

Chu Zhen naturally had nothing to say at this time, and it seemed that he still wanted to propose to build a causeway, but he could only wait until later, anyway, there was so much silt in the lake, even if all the farmland outside the city was covered, it should be more than enough, mainly because there were too many officials around him, and Chu Zhen didn't want to be in the limelight.

Taishou Xia Guan remembered that it was near the White Causeway. There are many low-lying areas; nbsp; It is better to have people move the dug mud to that place and wait for the spring flowers to bloom. and several acres of fertile land. Some people say that since it can be dredging and making lakes, of course, it can also rationally develop and utilize low-lying areas.

So much better. Fan Zhongyan nodded slightly, and suddenly said; nbsp; Chuzhi County; nbsp; The lake was opened. It really ruined a lot of people's fields. If you have time these days, you may wish to go and find out the situation. Wait for the West Lake to finish sparse Junnbsp; nbsp; Compensate them. ”

In fact, when preparing for the opening of the lake; nbsp; Chu Zhen has already made an investigation to understand clearly, if you want to sparse the West Lake, whose interests will be touched, the rich mansion is for sure, after all, this mansion is built on the edge of the West Lake, and if you want to start working, it will naturally make their house restless, and as soon as the people see that the soil on the shore of the lake outside the city is fertile, they will reclaim the fields there. nbsp; Grow a variety of crops.

Needless to say, there are many mansions; nbsp; Where to live is not to live nbsp; nbsp; Regardless of the time of demolition, it is a minor problem for them, especially in the case of obtaining a tax-free survey. nbsp; There is no need for Fan Zhongyan to send someone to negotiate and take the initiative to move away, but when the people come to this place, they will take the initiative to move out. nbsp; The field is their root, and they are certainly not willing to give it up; nbsp; However, nbsp; nbsp; The officials and the people are like arms that can't twist their thighs, and the water is far from the people's submission.

At this time, of course, Fan Zhongyan compensated them with a certain amount of money and food; nbsp; However, knowing the hardships of the people, he did not think that a small amount of money and food could make up for the losses of the people.

Keep in mind the lower officials.

Chu Zhen arched his hand and said, which made a certain person feel very uncomfortable, not that it was good to do this, but that Fan Zhongyan had something to do, so he told Chu Zhen what kind of trust this is.

On the first day of construction, Hangzhou officials accompanied Fan Zhongyan's footsteps around the West Lake of Nuoda several times, and there was always this fresh feeling at the beginning, but after walking for a long time, a certain person felt sweaty like rain, numb, swollen and painful legs and feet; nbsp; Walking is like a pinprick in the face.

I had the heart to stop and rest for a while, but Fan Zhongyan kept walking, but he didn't mean to rest at all, and when he was interested, he personally went to the lake to dig a few baskets of silt, and there was something good on it; nbsp; The next plough does not follow the top boss, and the officials next to him dare to stand and watch the play; nbsp; can only follow one after another wielding a hoe.

It's a pity that this person has been doing such a crude job since he became an official, and he won't even be able to hold a shovel and hoe, but when he wields it, his strength is not accurate, and his center of gravity is unstable

The dry mud is full of foreign appearance, fortunately, Chu quality is not distinguished, but the four bodies are ugly, and it is not difficult for him to dig the soil more diligently.

Not only him, but several officials don't seem to be unfamiliar with this kind of thing. At first glance, you know that it is a familiar hand; nbsp; Seeing this situation, Fan Zhongyan nodded secretly in his heart, and naturally wrote it down.

At noon, the officials who were covered in muddy water thought that Fan Zhongyan was about to leave to return to Ya, but fortunately, the ordeal ended here. nbsp; Unexpectedly, he didn't seem to have any intention of doing so, and he was still wandering around the construction site. At this time, it was already time for dinner, and the officials had already brought rice and grain, and set up a simple stove on the spot to wash rice and cook rice.

After a while, the smoke of cooking was everywhere, and the smell of rice was wafting. nbsp; aroused the appetite of many people, Fan Zhong drowned his feet, and walked straight towards the stove when he suddenly staggered. nbsp; This official thought that he had guessed Fan Zhongyan's thoughts, and he was secretly glad that he had not cheated in it.

Adultsnbsp; nbsp;。 Several men who were in charge of cooking saw Fan Zhongyan and his entourage, and hurriedly put down the work at hand; nbsp; Panicked giving.

Fan Zhongyan waved his hand lightly, lifted the lid of the pot, and what was inside was of course not the white rice on the table of the rich and noble, but a coarse grain brown rice, picked up the rice spoon and picked it up to the inner layer, and found that it was not adulterated with bran and knife shell. Only then did he nod his head in satisfaction and turned around and said; nbsp; After a busy green day, you must be hungry, so let's eat here. ”

Xie Taishou is compassionate. A group of officials bowed down and said, "There is this person, and his face is still moved, and he immediately ordered the entourage to run back to the city to buy wine and food and send them to them, but they would be wrong.

Slow. Fan Zhongyan waved his hand and said with a smile. nbsp; Meals are readily available here, so why bother. ”

Taishou nbsp; nbsp; It makes sense. Knowing what he meant, the official was dumbfounded. Not to mention that they are tired and half dead, they still have to eat with a bunch of untouchables, and they can still have a reputation for enjoying with the people, but they can't be allowed to eat this kind of brown rice with them. nbsp; How can this be swallowed, but no matter how reluctant he is in his heart, no one dares to openly oppose it. I can only agree with a happy face.

Taishou, please be seated.

At this time, they were outside the city, and there were no tables, chairs, or benches, so they could only move a few flat stones as seats and let them sit down with a few high-ranking officials.

Soon, the man served the rice and served it respectfully, and when he looked down at the yellow rice, the official felt a loss of appetite.

What kind of dishes are there?" also secretly asked the guy when he learned that there was only green vegetable and white leaf soup. Looking at the soup in the pot like clear water, I barely tasted a mouthful, light and tasteless, and suddenly a gloomy and sad feeling surged up, wanting to cry without tears.

Isn't there a scarce meat to eat?" said an official angrily rebuking the righteousness

The people worked for half a day, their physical strength was exhausted, and it was hard to say that they would eat this light meal for days, so how could they bear it, and they would not be too conservative. ”

This is very true. As soon as the officials nodded their heads in agreement, God knows if Fan Zhongyan will be like this in the future, and it would be better to take everyone around every day to be on the safe side, or to improve the treatment of the people.

That's not right. "There are also those who have expressed opposition to the nbsp; nbsp; Opening the lake costs a lot of money and grain, and if you add meat, the official treasury will not have enough money and food. ”

Fan Zhongyan didn't seem to hear the argument between the two sides, just ate silently, and didn't say anything when he saw him. The officials also suddenly remembered the scraping admonition of eating silently. They all died and agitated chopsticks to dine, however. There is such a person who is just putting on a show; nbsp; In fact, his lips did not touch the rice in the bowl at all, or he discarded it on the ground and buried it with mud and sand while others were not paying attention. to show that he had eaten.

After a whilenbsp; nbsp; Fan Zhongyan's karma bowl in his hand had bottomed out, rested for a while, and then continued to inspect. At this timenbsp; nbsp; The man beckoned the working people to stop work and come up to open the meal, holding a bowl of rice as high as they looked at the backs of the officials who were gradually moving away, and the people gently asked the man about their identities, and from time to time he said a few words, feeling that the dry and hard rice seemed to have a little more taste.

Walked for an hour or two; nbsp; The officials who had not eaten just now immediately regretted it, and their feet were sore, and they could barely bear it, but they were hungry in their stomachs. It can't be revealed, and the feeling of living like a year is really unspeakable.

It wasn't until the sun was setting that Fan Zhongyan returned to the city with the officials with a little tiredness. As for the tens of thousands of people's husbands, they can return to their homes if they are far away and difficult to go home, so they can only stay next to the construction site and lay grass.

After returning to the city and occupying the city, the officials could not leave, but concentrated on the state government to listen to Fan Zhongyan, summarize the gains and losses of the lake opening project, and then study and deploy tomorrow's work. By the end of the meeting, it was the dead of night, fortunately, the Yamen kitchen had prepared the wine and food, oh, and some people couldn't help but burst into tears. nbsp; There is no etiquette anymore. Swept by the wind and clouds**.

When the table is in disarray, the estimated time is only a dozen or so long. It is convincing, and Fan Zhongyan naturally will not stay in the guesthouse, and soon after a group of officials retired, someone directly collapsed in the sedan chair, and the sound was like thunder.

The crescent moon rises and the night breeze blows gently, the moon shines like water, and thousands of ripples ripple around, rippling around one by one, and when I come back from the state office, I first take a shower to wash off the mud and dirt on my body, and then slowly walk towards the room with heavy steps.

The night is getting deeper and the moon is getting brighter. The night is quieter, and the room seems to be contaminated with the silence of the night, and there is no screen, and there is only a thin layer of wooden tent on the bed behind the screen. The curtain hangs high above the window, and the night breeze from outside the window can lift it up with a gentle breeze.

Chu'er fell asleep quietly on the edge of the embroidery bed. One slender hand was half-pillowing the table next to the bed, a slightly messy strand of hair poked out, slipped and fell on the cheeks, the sleeping position was inappropriate, and the other slender hand naturally drooped, and the bright moon seeped in obliquely through the screen window, and the sleeves and arms were like five, covered with a layer of faint moonlight, like mutton fat white five.

The night breeze was light, the red candle was beating, and Chu Zhi stepped forward lightly, and his right hand was slightly on her back. Whispering to the nbsp; nbsp; Beginners; nbsp;。 Seeing that she didn't react, she couldn't help but slowly lay her down, and Chu'er seemed to be aware of it, muttered a dream word, and fell asleep again.

A warm feeling flowed in the bottom of her heart, naturally she would not wake her up, Chu Zhen also took off his robe, extinguished the lights and candles, and hugged Chu'er's soft and delicate body. Smelling the familiar faint fragrance, before I had time to savor it, a thick tiredness suddenly swelled up. Slowly fall asleep.

The moonlight is soft, the night breeze is cool, and the dark fragrance floats. nbsp; It's another quiet night.
