Spring ploughing day, as the name suggests, means that the fields that have been off for a winter need to be ploughed again, and when the soil is soft, then look at the weather and sow the carefully selected grain seeds in the soil.

Then he sat at home and waited for "God is beautiful, the dragon king blesses!" "When a spring rain falls, the seeds in the field sprout, and this year's harvest is half assured.

If the blessing is not enough, the gods who manage the rain refuse to rain, and the emperor's officials will set up altars and burn incense and light lamps, asking God to forgive their sins and give some rain.

This is the root of the spring rain, which is as precious as oil.

"Plant a millet in spring, harvest 10,000 particles in summer", spring is busy in spring, if you are not busy, you will have to be hungry in the second half of the year, so in this season, even if you are the emperor of a country, you have to go to the field to help the pear head, and set an example for tens of millions of people.

The emperor had labored, and the herdsmen who had eaten with him had to get out of their nests, go around the fields, praise the diligent mud legs, and whip a few lazy peasants.

"If you don't farm seriously, your daughter's taxes will be offset against your summer taxes!"

County Lieutenant Liu held a whip and lashed at a few idle men who were sitting on the ridge of the field and were lazy, and really whipped a few whips.

"Official, official, don't smoke, don't smoke! We are hard-working men in the city, and we have no land to plant! ”

The man at the head held his head and explained.

"Lifu?" County Lieutenant Liu glanced up and down at a few men, then raised his whip and whipped it twice: "Since it is not good for Lifu to stay in the city to find work, what are you doing on the ridges in the countryside?" ”

After speaking, he waved his hand, "Come on, don't pull a few of them, tie them all back to the yamen, and interrogate them carefully to see if they are black-hearted thieves who steal grain from the field!" ”

The servants behind replied, took out iron chains and tied up these husbands.

County Lieutenant Liu rode a horse and led a group of officials to quickly continue to walk to the next village.

On the side of the terrier, two snot babies who were digging insects from the soil to play with their faces said that they were lucky, and hurriedly ran back to their fields.

One said: "Big brother, I'm here to help you take the cow!" ”

Another said: "Mother, I'll help you pick up the grass roots!" ”

On the official road in front of the mass grave slope in Xicheng, Liu County Lieutenant and his party stopped here.

There were forty or fifty people when they came out, but now there are only five or six left.

County Lieutenant Liu raised his head to look at the not too steep hillside, especially the faint grave halfway up the mountain, and said hesitantly: "San Lang, is the Shitan Mountain that the dog said this is?" ”

Liu Sanlang kicked the horse's belly a few times with his heel, and the spotted horse neighed a few times in his nose, and then took a few steps forward.

"Yes, county lieutenant, the little dog said that there is a hill with a mass grave."

County Lieutenant Liu frowned and looked at the mass grave again: "It doesn't look like there is a carboniferous mine!" ”

After finishing speaking, he turned to a red-faced man and said, "Master Yao, you go up and take a look at the situation!" ”

Master Yao nodded, shouted to drive, and the horse that sat down spread its hooves and ran up.

After two pillars of incense, he ran back, hugged his fists with an embarrassed face and said: "Lieutenant Yu, I went to the back of this mass grave, looked around along the mountain wall, and didn't see where the thief hole he said was!" ”

The group frowned.

"San Lang, what's going on?" County Lieutenant Liu asked.

Liu Sanlang hurriedly said: "I heard that the dog said so, after a few of them got out of the thief hole, they only dragged some dry grass to cover the thief hole, and went home without moving, and the big monk in his family said the same thing!" At that time, Zhao Zhutou was also listening to it! ”

Zhao Zhutou hurriedly stepped forward and hugged his fist and said: "Yes, county lieutenant, what San Lang said is not bad, that little dog should not lie to us, the county lieutenant waits, I will go up and look for it!" ”

County Lieutenant Liu nodded, and Zhao Zhutou shouted "drive" and rode up on horse.

A pillar of incense time, ran over with a puzzled face and said, "County lieutenant, I didn't find it!" ”

"Nonsense!" County Lieutenant Liu said fiercely: "It's a shame that a few of you are so old that you have been tricked by this little child!" ”

Liu Sanlang, Zhao Zhutou hurriedly hugged his fists and said: "County Lieutenant, we didn't lie to you, I also looked at the charcoal slag he burned!" ”

Zhao Zhutou said again: "I also asked the group of little beggars alone, saying that there is indeed charcoal in it!" ”

Liu Sanlang also hugged his fists and said: "Liu Zijiang is such a stable person, if he doesn't confirm the news, how dare he tell you this casually!" ”

After listening to the two of them persuade each other a few times, County Lieutenant Liu dispelled some doubts and said, "Did you two hear the wrong place?" ”

The two of them said: "How dare you hear it wrong! ”

A group of people wondered, "Where is the thief hole?" ”

After thinking about it for a while, there was no result, and County Lieutenant Liu said, "What about the puppy?" Why didn't he come! ”

Liu Sanlang said with an embarrassed face: "He said that his buttocks hurt from being hit by the board and he couldn't get out of bed!" ”

Liu County Lieutenant said: "Nonsense! After just a few boards, why can't I get out of bed because of the pain? ”

Liu Sanlang snorted: "Maybe we didn't save him, so we're playing petty!" ”

Liu County Lieutenant said angrily: "Ignorant guy, that's the main hall, and it's not me here, how can I save him, can I say a few words to let him take half of the board, it's already good, what kind of trouble!" ”

After speaking, he turned around and said, "Zhao catches the head!" ”

Zhao Zhutou hurriedly hugged his fists and said: "The subordinates are here!" ”

"Hurry back to the city, and tie him up for me!"

Zhao Zhutou responded and rode away.

Seeing this, Liu Sanlang said: "County lieutenant, the little dog also said that there is a road on the top of the mountain, why don't we go up?" ”

County Lieutenant Liu nodded and said: "Li Senjun and Zhao Zhijian in the state are coming next week, I still don't feel at ease if I don't see this coal mine with my own eyes!" ”

A few people said yes, and they hugged him and climbed up the slope, and when they arrived at the mass graveyard, a group of people got off their horses, and probed around the mountain wall, stabbing left and right with the knife in their hands, and indeed did not see a thief hole that could get into a person, but there were many mouse holes.

A group of people can't figure it out, so they just think it's wrong.

Seeing that there was a step up the hill on the side, Master Yao pulled out his waist knife and climbed up while guarding.

After climbing for half an hour, they finally climbed to the top of the mountain, and the group couldn't take a break, and carefully looked at the entrance of the cave on the half of the wall, and sure enough, where the black hole was open.

Only then did County Lieutenant Liu dispel his worries and said to everyone: "Which of you will go in and take a look?" ”

In the small courtyard of Nanchengfang, the dog was lying on the kang with his butt exposed, screaming loudly, "Oops, hey, it hurts me!" ”

The dog who was waiting next to him saw that he barked miserably, but his little face was expressionless.

Poof, and laughed.

The dog hurriedly gave him a look, saw that he covered his mouth, and then continued to shout: "Oops, my ass hurts!" ”

In the shack in the outer courtyard, the tax collector Martha looked at the idiot chanting scriptures in front of the brazier with a sneer.

Every time he took a step towards the East House, the idiot coughed, back and forth four or five times, Ma Dadao: "Master of the idiot, I really came to apologize!" Just let me in! ”

The idiot did not answer, and continued to recite the Buddhist scriptures.

"The ears are pure, only chanting the Buddha, not a pillar of incense in the world!"

Martha hurriedly hugged his fists and said: "The idiot master is really a high-ranking monk, he is not greedy for secular incense, and he is in awe, he is really admirable!" ”

Listening to his flattering words, the idiot was sick to his stomach, and he raised the drumstick and slammed it on the wooden fish in front of him.

The voice of "Bang Bang" spread far away, Ma Da was stunned for a moment, thought about it and opened his mouth and said: "Master is really profound Buddhism, this hand of wooden fish knocks, really makes the little brother six pure and desireless." ”

The idiot was angry with him, rolled his eyes, clasped his hands together and said: "Go and rest!" ”

When Ma Da heard this, he was about to say it again, but the white servant behind him pulled his sleeve and whispered: "Brother Ma, let's go out first!" ”

Today I came to make amends to this little child, how can I do it if I return in vain, I was about to shake my head at the moment, but I was dragged out by the white servants.

When he arrived outside the courtyard, Bai Gong looked left and right, as if he was too close to the house to speak, and dragged him out of the fence door before saying: "Brother Ma, the master let us go inside, and if we stay, it's not good to make him angry!" ”

Of course Martha knows, he has been a tax collector for all these years, and he still understands this, but what are the two of them doing today? I'm here to apologize!

Since tying up this child and entering the yamen, he was convicted of resisting taxes and not paying taxes, but because he only had a few pennies and was too young, he was sentenced to ten boards, and twenty cents of tax money was made up in full.

Then he was dragged out of the hall and began to torture, a little baby didn't know how to bump into himself, just as he was young and vigorous, beat him a few boards to vent his anger, even if this matter was revealed, he really didn't take it seriously in his heart.

But I didn't remember it in my heart, someone remembered it in my heart, one of my brothers was on an errand in the soap class, and when I went to the back office to go around, when I came back, I happened to bump into this scene, and when I saw the person who was beaten, my face changed, and I quickly ran to him and asked what happened, and then I muttered to myself, "Woe to you!" ”

I didn't think much about it at the time, and said casually, "Where is a little baby, there will be trouble!" ”

The brother pointed to the county lieutenant's hall on the west side and said, "Their people! ”

Sure enough, following his fingers, he saw Liu Sanlang, Zhao Zhutou and a few catchers standing on the platform, glaring at him fiercely.

I understood in an instant, no wonder this little baby dared to speak coldly to herself, and she was not afraid to enter the yamen, and only told her for mercy when she was beaten.

Seeing that the little baby was caught by the two and carried away with a lifting rod, he knew where the trouble was! This cold sweat flowed down instantly.

Martha, who has been a tax collector for many years, has practiced some eyes, but sometimes he still makes mistakes in doing things, but fortunately, people are not stupid.

The county lieutenant, including a group of subordinates in the county lieutenant's hall, was suppressed by the second-in-command of the Yuchuan County Government on the surface, but he knew that in private, these people were not afraid at all, and they even had to be deflated in some things.

Therefore, if you ask the people at the lowest level of the yamen who are most afraid of that side, almost all of them will say, why is it in the county governor's hall? Because they are still holding together in black hearts.

It took a lot of money to do this errand, but I didn't want to be planted in the hands of this little baby so regrettably, so early this morning, I came to see this little baby with a gift.

I didn't give a good face when I met, I can understand, after all, I was angry after being beaten, I just coaxed a few more times, and coaxed a few more times, this baby actually cried.

Later, he was driven out by this great monk, and he didn't let himself go in and bother him.
