In the early morning, with the rooster crow in the courtyard, the whole city of Ruoyang came to life.

This is outside the city, strictly speaking, this was not originally Luoyang County, but, with the expansion of Luoyang again and again, it has also become a countryside under the name of Luoyang County, of course, this makes the people very excited, since becoming the people of Luoyang, the local officials are smiling at them, the Son of Heaven often goes on private patrols, and travels all over the countryside of Luoyang, including some bigwigs in the court, the three public levels, and often patrols around.

The officials of Luoyang are definitely the most difficult, sometimes, you insult an ordinary old man who blocked your frame, within half a time, Xiuyi will invite you to tea, talk to you about how the officials of the Han Dynasty should get along with the people, and the old man may still eat tea on the side, looking at this with a smile, such a thing, the officials of Luoyang have experienced many times.

As soon as the sky was bright, Mr. Wang slowly walked out of the inner room, his wife was busy by the stove, the old man took a pot of water, washed up at the door, washed his hands, washed his face, put the kettle down, sat on the chair in the courtyard, and waited for his wife to cook the meal, the house is surrounded by an earthen wall, not high, the gate is much taller than the earthen wall, there are three rooms inside, one is the inner room, one is the warehouse, piled up all kinds of sundries, and one is empty, in order to receive guests.

There are chickens and ducks in the courtyard, and some vegetables are planted at the back of the house, but at the moment there is only gray soil, and it is not yet time to plow, only the poultry are fiddling with the soil, trying to find something to eat, listening to the cry of the poultry, the barking of the old dog tied to the door, the old man Wang's face is happy, the days are really getting more and more hopeful, hey, good, really good, when he was full of emotion, the old wife has already brought the prepared meal.

The two of them ate slowly, eating not fast, suddenly heard the door was pushed open, a young man walked out, did not say anything, and sat next to the old man, the old wife smiled and took the meal for him, the young man ate, he just ate two bites, the door was pushed open again, two slightly older young people also walked in, smiled and greeted the two old men, called their parents, and then sat down.

The old mother wanted to serve them food, but both of them refused, "I have already eaten at home, but I miss my parents, so I just came over, no, no." ”

The home of the two of them, just around the father-in-law's house, these two were originally the father-in-law's houses, to live for the two, they did not plan to live for a long time, or have the idea of building a new house, the family gathered, the father-in-law was a little happy, happily sandwiched the meal for the younger son, the other two sons glanced at each other, then looked at the younger son, and asked: "San Lang, how are you doing lately?" ”

San Lang didn't answer, just ate his own food, the old man glared at him, and said, "Your brother asked you!" ”

Saburo raised his head helplessly and said, "It's okay, I've been promoted... But it's still a servant..."

"That's amazing, that's amazing!" The two praised.

Suddenly, he cautiously asked: "San Lang, I am thinking about it with your second brother, I can't let you live here anymore, you are also a figure with a head and a face, how about we pool some money and arrange a set of family property for you where you are on an errand?" ”

The old man laughed and said, "Okay, good! ”

San Lang raised his head suddenly, and said angrily: "What's good, Father, don't you know, the city wall of Luoyang is going to be expanded again, here, it will be demolished in the near future, it is said that every family will give compensation according to the size of the house and the number of trees, Father, didn't you see that they suddenly planted all kinds of fruit trees in their homes?" It doesn't matter if they can survive or not, they just want this money, I'm afraid I'll rob it!! ”

The youngest brother told the meaning in his heart, and the two brothers were a little blushing, distracted, and speechless.

Uncle Wang's face turned red, he stood up angrily, and said, "You guys are just for this money??" Yes?? Do you still want to deceive the Son of Heaven through those shoddy methods?? You damn brutes!! The old man who listened to him scolded, and Da Lang said with some grievances: "Father, San Lang is not short of this money, not to mention, the Son of Heaven has a lot of money in his hand, let's plant some trees and take more, isn't it?" ”

"Brute!!" Old man Wang trembled angrily, he pointed to the two sons in front of him, and said angrily: "You bastards, you should let you live fifty years ago, see if you still have this mind!" You ungrateful brutes! Have you read all the books in vain?! ”

"Fifty years ago, our family ran here from Hebei, there was a great drought for many years, there was not a drop of rain, all the crops died, no one came to help, the villagers starved to death one by one, for a few grains of rice, and even some people killed each other, do you know what kind of day it was? Yes? I didn't eat for three or four days, and I ran all the way, and the officials on the road wanted to arrest us, the head of a homeless person, but enough for them to be promoted and rich! ”

"Thanks to the kindness of my Emperor Renzong Xiaokang, I ran here with your Yeye, I was caught by the officials, I was going to be thrown into prison, it was Emperor Renzong Xiaokang who saved us, let us build a gallop road, give us money and food, as relief, it is by this errand that we all survive.... The Holy Emperor is the benefactor of our whole family, and at that time, it was not easy to build a house..."

"We can only send people under the fence, in the hands of those powerful tenants, every month, a full meal is not enough, but if we can survive, we are already content, but, ah, thanks to my Renzong Xiaokangci Emperor, he let us tuntian, as long as it is cultivated by ourselves, it belongs to us, and we don't have to hand over anyone's money and surplus grain... How nice it is that we have our own farmland, we have our own houses..."

The old man has a trace of remembrance, but with a little sadness.

The three sons in front of him were completely silent, no longer speaking, and the old man continued: "How good, my Emperor Renzong Xiaokang God, all my heart is on us lowly people, before that, who had thought about it for us, you can go to the official school, San Lang can go to the assessment to be an official, this is something I dare not think of... It's a pity, it's a sorrow! The old man thumped his chest, "Emperor Renzong Xiao Kangwei died like this..."

"How I want to go and face the saint in person, thank him!"

"After my Emperor Yizong Xiaoxian ascended the throne, life is getting better and better, not the eldest son of Emperor Renzong Xiaokangying, building Jimin Mansion, will raise us old people every month, children can go to school one by one, all the water conservancy here is built by him, it really lives up to his father's name, taxes are getting lower and lower, the road is getting better and better, in the past, to go to Luoyang County, it takes three ministers, you look at it now, half a minister will arrive..."

"Give us cattle and sheep, chickens and ducks, let us raise them ourselves, do you know, fifty years ago, the cattle were still in the hands of the pavilion, we wanted to use them, and we had to bribe these officials, you see, who dares to take our money now?"

"And the loom used by your grandmother, and the sharp tools for farming in the field, which one was not given to us by my Emperor Yizong Xiaoxian?"

"Alas... I, Emperor Yizong Xiaoxian, are also gone... But today's Son of Heaven is still the grandson of Emperor Renzong Xiao Kangming!! Even an old man like me can sell some meat porridge, subsidize the family, and demolish the house to return the money, do you think it was possible before?? Yes?? We used to eat tree bark and gnaw loess!! Are you still not satisfied?? And to cheat the Son of Heaven out of money?? Take advantage of the benevolence of the Son of Heaven?? ”

"I tell you!! If you dare to do such a thing to be sorry for my Emperor Renzong Xiao Kangren, I will immediately cut off relations with you!! I'm going to denounce you!! ”

Hearing this, Da Lang and Erlang immediately knelt in front of their father, their eyes were red, and they quickly apologized.

The old man snorted coldly and ignored them, and San Lang said, "Two brothers, why don't you destroy those trees?" ”

The two woke up and hurriedly walked out of the courtyard.

After they left, the abbot was a little gentler, looked at the most outstanding San Lang, and asked with a smile: "San Lang, have you been promoted?" Where? Far from it? ”

"Not far away, at the tomb of the Emperor Fu, an armory hall was built there, which was used to collect all kinds of new ordnance, and the child was there on an errand in the future..."

"Oh... That's good... Not bad, not bad. Mr. Wang didn't know what he was talking about, but when he heard his son's promotion, he was still happy, and the family of three ate a meal, and Mr. Wang suddenly said: "Son, you have a lot of money every month, if this courtyard is demolished...", San Lang shook his head, smiled, and said: "Father, it's okay, you give all those to your brother, I will build a house in the near future, and when the time comes, take my father and my mother, and my father doesn't have to do this now." ”

"How can that work? You don't understand, if I don't sit at anything for a day, just stay at home, then what's the hope of living, I must do this deal..."Wang Laozhang said stubbornly, San Lang looked at his mother helplessly, hoping that his mother could help him persuade him, but the old mother smiled and said: "Don't pay attention to your father, just let him do it, by the way, I heard that the little daughter of the old Li family in the west of the village..."

"Ahem, Grandma, I still have some things, so I'll go and get busy first!"

Looking at the youngest son who fled in a hurry, Mr. Wang blew his beard, "Three sons, none of them lay eggs, and their grandchildren have all gone to official school, what about me?" I didn't even see the shadow of my grandson!! ”

After complaining a few words and setting up a donkey cart, Mr. Wang slowly set off towards Luoyang.

When I arrived in Ruoyang County, I just walked to the street, and I saw a group of people crowded at the gate of the city, I don't know what to do, the old man was a little curious, and pulled a young man, the young man was a little unhappy at first, and saw that this was an old man, and quickly closed his face, bowed respectfully, and called the old man, the old man smiled and asked: "Hou Sheng, what are they doing there?" ”

"Back to the old man, there is a new notice."

"Oh? What kind of notice? Isn't there a war somewhere? ”

"Hey, no, the temple has revised the curfew, and in the future, there will be a curfew in the whole city only when the ugly time comes, and the rest of the time, there will be no curfew!"

Uncle Wang was stunned for a moment, and then laughed.

"Okay, that's good, this day is getting more and more promising!"
