Chapter 575: The new official takes office
"What?"
Princess Pingyang asked. Xue Lang said with a smile: "It's not a big deal, it's just that taking advantage of the drought in Guanzhong, the water level of the lake at home has also decreased, take this opportunity, you send someone to clean up the pond, the silt in the pond, and order someone to transport it to the field, which can fertilize the land." ”
Princess Pingyang was dumbfounded: "That's it? ”
Xue Lang didn't know, and nodded and said: "That's it, I had a plan a few days ago, but seeing that the water level is still a little high, Qingtang is not easy to get and put it on hold, and now I have to send it out for a while, so I can only leave it to you to keep an eye on." Don't forget this opportunity! ”
Princess Pingyang was silent, just staring at him like that, staring at Xue Lang with an inexplicable face, there is no one with this emotional intelligence! After being glared at, he asked stupidly, "What's wrong?" ”
Seeing that Princess Pingyang didn't speak, she patted her head and said apologetically: "That's right, these things should have been worried about by me, but in fact, I am reluctant to let you worry about these things." It's just that I don't know how long I'm going to go to the south, if I can rush back as soon as possible, I'll hurry up, if I can't come back, I can only bother Your Highness, I will tell Xue Xi to pay more attention. ”
These straightforward words pleased Her Royal Highness the Princess, staring at him for a while, and then dissipating into invisibility before Xue Lang himself was aware of it, Princess Pingyang leaned into his arms and said in a low voice: "When it comes to family affairs, Lang Jun doesn't need to worry about it, he will take care of it for his wife." Lang Jun is out of the house, take care of yourself, don't worry me and the children. ”
Xue Lang smiled and nodded: "Don't worry, I have a family, I know it in my heart!" ”
The two talked carefully for a long time, and before dawn the next day, Xue Lang got up, called buns, steamed buns, fritters, and soy milk, and set off with the first snow.
Princess Pingyang only told him to take care of himself and not to worry about his family, although he didn't mention a word of reluctance, but every word was full of reluctance. If it weren't for Xue Lang being the most suitable candidate, she really didn't want to let him out of Beijing, the water and fire were ruthless, her Xue Lang was the only one!
With his wife's earnest entrustment, Xue Lang embarked on the road. Li Er deliberately removed a battalion of men and horses from the guards to guard him, and a team of men and horses sent by the princess as personal guards, so he was safe.
The leader of the Praetorian Guard Battalion is Wei Chi Baoqi, the second son of Wei Chi Gong, his father is a tall and strong black charcoal head, this kid is born with good eyebrows, and treats Xue Lang very politely and politely, he is obviously about the same age, but he consciously holds the rites of his son and nephew.
Su Han had already returned to Beijing because his grandmother was critically ill, but now he was ordered by Li Er to go with Xue Lang for disaster relief, so for him, he had to leave his wife and children and go out on patrol with Xue Lang.
That's right, Su Han and Miss Kong gave birth to a son, and they are currently working hard to give birth to a well-behaved and lovely daughter...... Well, this was said by Su Han himself, and Xue Lang just paraphrased.
The two good friends rode in the same car, recalling the scene in the past when they were in Weize Pass, and they felt a little reincarnated. At that time, Jiang Lin was married, and Xue Lang and Su Han were two singles; Now, the three of them have married a family, have wives and children, and have a happy family.
Xue Lang was originally a person who didn't like to travel, Guanzhong was dry, and the water level of Weishui dropped and he couldn't go by boat, so he had to take a land route first, and he could only take the waterway by boat when he got out of Guanzhong. Fortunately, with friends by your side and chatting together, the difficult journey is better.
Keeping in mind the floods, the road was even more difficult. It is quite consoling that the post station also has a newspaper. When Xue Lang saw her for the first time, she was really surprised, and in addition to secretly admiring Her Royal Highness the Princess's good methods, he was actually secretly a little proud in his heart. Her Royal Highness, the princess of his family, wisdom has never been underestimated.
Finally finished the land route, took the official boat and started to take the waterway, Xue Lang felt that his bones were about to fall apart, he felt like a dead dog, and he had no strength to deal with the tail wagging of the buns.
hurried to Suzhou in a hurry, Jiang Lin had already brought 20,000 sailors to wait for him there-
"Big brother, Akan!"
got on the boat, Jiang Lin did not return to his own ship, but got on Xue Lang's official ship, good friends and good brothers did not see each other for a long time, and exchanged greetings.
Xue Lang is also a person who has been in the south of the Yangtze River, and it can be seen that the water of Suzhou Creek has risen compared with previous years, and after exchanging greetings with Jiang Lin, he asked the general: "I see that the water of Suzhou Creek has risen compared to when I was here, isn't it?" ”
Jiang Lin said: "Don't hide it from the eldest brother, after receiving the letter from the eldest brother, the younger brother often ordered people to pay attention to the water level of the rivers, and always pay attention to the rainfall, this year's rainfall is indeed more than in previous years, and the water level of the rivers has also risen. ”
Xue Lang nodded, and tried to recall the records of the flood in Xuzhou in the historical records, remembering that in the literature, the flood broke out in the autumn, and now it is just early summer, and there is still a period of time.
After thinking about it, he said: "Ah Lin, you go back to the station first, I will take someone to inspect the water conservancy facilities in Jiangnan Province first, check and fill in the gaps, plow the personnel first, straighten it out, if there is a disaster, it will be easy to deal with." ”
Last year, Xiao Li ascended the throne and redefined the administrative regions of the world, the twelve provinces of the world, Suzhou, Hangzhou, and Xuzhou, which belonged to Jiangnan Province.
Jiang Lin saw that the people and horses he brought were not small, and promised: "It's okay, if the eldest brother brings the people and horses, if you want to keep them safe, it is enough, and the younger brother will not have to do a lot of things here." It's just that the eldest brother, in the south of the Yangtze River, there are many families, there are many counties in various places, and the personnel are complicated, so the eldest brother should be more careful. ”
Xue Lang said: "I already know this matter in my heart, I have His Majesty's hand, and there are so many troops, if you help me fight the disaster, if you want to pull me back, the knife in my hand is not vegetarian!" ”
Xue Lang is here to fight the disaster, not to manage the government, where is there time to deal with these complicated personnel, in the face of natural disasters, everyone has the obligation to cooperate, this is the righteousness, as long as you stand on the side of the righteousness, there are soldiers in hand, which county is not afraid of Xue Lang. If there are such uninteresting ones, it doesn't hurt to clean them up!
The brothers got together a little in Suzhou, Jiang Lin took people back to Huangzhou Island, waiting for Xue Lang's announcement when he needed it, and Xue Lang went to Yangzhou to meet the long history of Jiangnan Province.
At the beginning of the year, Li Er made Li Tai, the fourth son of the emperor, the king of Yue, the assassin and governor of Yangzhou, and the commander-in-chief of Suzhou, Hangzhou, Yangzhou, Yuezhou and other 22 states. It's just that Yue Wangtai is still a little kid now, and he can only lead it from afar, and government affairs are still taken care of by a long history. It just so happened that the Shaoyin Mansion of Jiangnan Province was located in Yangzhou, and Xue Lang was worshiped as an inspector of the imperial history, so he had to go to the meeting.
