Chapter 181: A Good Ruler Should Act with His Conscience

Chang'an Mansion calendar April.

Chang Long led the army to "escort" the Menghu army to Jincheng, and under the arrangement of the Jincheng county guard, the Menghu army was arranged to be stationed outside the city, and the Chang'an army was stationed in the city.

With the arrival of Chang Long, Jincheng also began to get busy.

"Zhou Junshou, it's really hard for you." Chang Long sighed while checking the documents of the Jincheng County Government, since the invasion of foreign countries, Jincheng has transferred a lot of people, the population has lost nearly one-third, large and small shops are also closed, evacuated, the county government's taxes are also greatly discounted, and most of the cultivated fields outside the city are not cultivated, even if it is so difficult, Zhou County Shou still tried his best to organize the people left behind, so that this year's spring ploughing is all completed, and the empty fields outside the city are also green, it can really be said that he is fulfilling his duties, and he can't help but sigh.

"The war is stalemate, the soldiers in front use their lives, if I can't eat enough, I'm afraid my conscience will not be able to live as an official in my life." Zhou De couldn't help but sigh with emotion, he has been an official for many years, and he has never relied on orders to do things, but to do things according to his conscience, to be worthy of the people, worthy of the soldiers, and worthy of his own affairs.

"When I left Brother Zhou in this Golden City, it seems that I, Chang Long, still have some knowledge, hahaha." Chang Long put away those papers, he felt that there was no need to read them anymore, with such a county guard, where did he need to worry about himself.

"The marshal is serious...... Zhou De had a tired smile on his face, and he could see that he was a little reluctant, and his pale face and dim eyes could see how hard he worked.

"Zhou County Shou rest for a few days, I am in the county these days, you take this opportunity to recuperate, don't get tired, the war doesn't know when it will end, Jincheng is the granary of the front line, you can't go missing, so after that, Brother Lao Zhou has to preside over the affairs of Jincheng, especially the autumn harvest, so before that, you must not fall!" Although Chang Long's words are a little unpleasant, but the truth is self-evident, Xiping's back is Jincheng, if it is a protracted war with Xianrong, then this year's autumn harvest in Jincheng has become the top priority, although it can be transferred from other places to transport grain, but in the south of Shudi, the road is difficult and dangerous, and there is no one in ten to transport grain, and the garrison in the south also has to garrison Tubo and the six edicts, and the consumption is also very large.

"This ...... Then thank you Chang Fushuai. In the matter of Jincheng, Zhou De will do his best! Zhou De heard that Chang Long gave him a holiday, and couldn't help but be a little moved, in the past few months, he has not had a good rest, often for a few days and nights, and all kinds of things in the county have to be personally arranged, especially ...... Some time ago, my son died in battle, and I have been enduring the pain of losing my son, and my mind and body are under tremendous pressure and suffering at the same time, so it can be said that I have been hovering on the verge of falling, if it were not supported by a strong sense of responsibility, I am afraid that I would have been ill a long time ago.

"Go back and rest, you can take care of it these days." Chang Long Xu was really moved by Zhou De, patted Zhou De's shoulder and said solemnly.

"Then the official sue ......" Zhou De didn't finish speaking, and suddenly felt that his whole body was soft, his eyes were black, and he didn't wake up directly.

"Come on, please Lang Zhong!" Chang Long was startled, hugged Zhou De, who had fainted, and shouted. The soldiers outside the door also rushed to find Lang Zhong.

Chang Long looked at Zhou De in his arms and sighed infinitely.

"Zhou De, Zhou De, tell me about you, I tried my best to let you go back to your hometown to retire, you are soft and hard, you have to be a county guard here with me, you said why did you bother at the beginning, you look at the people Liu Chengfeng, now how carefree, and I also recognized a goddaughter, playing all day in my Chang'an City, how good, what about you, now it's good, I tired myself...... Everyone says that I am always insidious and cunning, and that I attack my colleagues and ostracize the old, but who knows that I am for your good...... Gyeongsan is stupid... Wen Jun is also stupid...... Alas! Chang Long suddenly sighed, remembering the past, he couldn't help but talk to himself, he said his heart to Zhou De who had fainted.

……

Soon, the soldiers brought Lang Zhong, and Chang Long carried Zhou De into the room and put him on the couch.

Na Lang Zhong checked the pulse and looked at Zhou De's tongue again.

"This is caused by overwork and too weak qi and blood, and Zhou Junshou is also a rare good official today." Lang Zhong sighed while writing the prescription, he has seen many officials and doctors, but they are basically some diseases of wealth and nobility, either they eat too well and make up for too much or they are too extravagant, and there are almost no tired people like Zhou De.

Lang Zhong quickly wrote the prescription and handed it to Chang Long.

"According to this medicine, one dose in the morning and one in the evening, it will be raised for half a month, and you will be cured. It's better to pay more attention to rest, and if you continue like this, you may not wake up next time. Lang Zhong didn't forget to tell before leaving.

"Thank you, sir, we'll do it!" Chang Long thanked him.

……

"Go, hurry up and do it, find a few maids, and be sure to take care of Zhou Junshou." Chang Long ordered sternly.

"Yes!" The guards took orders.

……

After settling Zhou De, Chang Long walked towards Meng Ge's residence.

……

Mongo, who was arranged in the backyard of the county government, was sitting alone in the courtyard drinking alcohol.

"Khan is this in a bad mood?" Chang Long smiled and walked towards Meng Ge.

"How long are we going to stay here?" Meng Ge was anxious, he had to return to the grassland as soon as possible, once Xian Rong noticed something, then Meng Hu Ke would be in danger, this time, the 50,000 elite Wang Ting army he brought out of Meng Hu is now only 20,000, and there are only 50,000 Wang Ting troops left in the country.

"That depends on the progress of Xiping's side. Don't worry, the Xianrong people didn't notice it so quickly, don't worry, I, Changlong, will definitely send you back safely. Chang Long tried to reassure Meng Ge that he wouldn't be so impatient.

"I see that you are very hanging, the three men under the West Horde...... It's amazing......" Meng Ge felt a chill in his heart when he thought of those three people, especially when he remembered the word begging. Since he was a child, these two words have been firmly engraved in his mind, and he has seen with his own eyes the eighty thousand white bones, that is, he is still a child.

"Yes, that's why it's a little tricky now, I also came to ask the Great Khan for advice, after all, you and Xian Rong have also fought each other, and you know a lot." Chang Long's eyes lit up, like an old fox, testing Menggo's words.

When Meng Ge heard this, he sneered in his heart, such a treacherous person, he actually wanted to drive the tiger and devour the wolf, no matter how you say it, the grassland is the grassland, and the Central Plains is the Central Plains, even if we have a blood feud with Xianrong, that can't let you pick up the cheap.

"Hmm...... When Ben Khan succeeded to the throne, Menghu was already a vassal of Xian Rong, where did he get any experience, Chang Daren, you will be embarrassed by Ben Khan. ”

Mungo took a sip of his wine and smiled.
