Chapter 231: The Unlucky Ji Period
Throughout the first half of June, the sky was clear, and the scorching sun quickly dried the wheat fields, and after the farmers collected the wheat, cracks appeared in the fields. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
"The eighth king of drought is coming", said an experienced old farmer. Thankfully, God blessed them, and after the wheat harvest, a great drought came, and although the roasters were uncomfortable, at least there was fresh wheat in the granary.
At the beginning of spring, there was a military disaster in Hebei County, and the granary of the fertile fields turned into a desolate ghost with white bones exposed in the wilderness. Ji Yan looked at collecting more taxes to subsidize Hebei County, but he didn't expect Zhao Zheng to wave his hand, and hundreds of thousands of people fled to Hexi County and became obedient citizens of Qin.
Milk is a mother, a truth that is not easy since ancient times. Ji Yan is not angry with the people who are not homeless, what if he defects to the Qin State, at least the people are still alive, and as long as the people are alive, everything will be owned again.
Heaven is endless, Ji Zhou, this year's summer harvest, increase grain millions of stones.
"Great joy, I want to sacrifice to the sky."
Chewing on the honorific name offered by Zhao Zheng, Ji Yan couldn't stop smiling. Zhao Zheng used grain to pry into the foot of the wall of Zhou, but he didn't expect God to pry his wall foot, there is no shortage of food in Chengzhou, which people don't want to return to their hometown?
The Temple of Heaven Festival, this time there was no eaves to shade, and after a set of ceremonies, Ji Yan sweated half a liter and almost fainted in the Temple of Heaven.
"I'm a little tired."
Ji Yan didn't expect that this would become his last sentence, and it was only forty days before he became the emperor. The first emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty, paralyzed by a stroke.
The crown prince Ji Zhan is logical to supervise the country's governance, and there was a saying that the autumn harvest will abolish the prince before, but after the summer is busy, there is a big drought, and the autumn harvest does not have to be counted on.
"This is the end of fighting against loneliness", Ji Zhan snorted coldly, and sat on the golden Nine Dragons chair in a small dragon robe.
"Inspect the river during the prince's period and pray for rain to the river."
One mountain does not tolerate two tigers, as soon as Ji Zhanfu took office, Ji Qi was helplessly driven out of Luoyi, and along the Yongjiang River all day long, worshipping the Hebo who didn't know where he was.
On 16 June, Ji Qi, who had inspected for a day, was tired and lying on the carriage, his knees were numb, he had just finished walking through Hebei County, and after Zhang Liang took office, various measures were appropriate, and forty percent of the people had returned. It is believed that in two months, Hebei County will be able to return to its pre-war state.
Ji Qi thought about it, moved his buttocks, and changed to lie on his side on the other side. The weather was hot, and the carriage relied on a few ice stones to cool down, but the heat still kept rising from the ground, scorching the bottom of the carriage.
"Heavenly Golden Crow, is it possible to find a Hou Yi to shoot you."
"Click"
The flat ground thundered, and dark clouds swept in from all directions, quickly covering the world.
"Crackling"
The raindrops the size of beans rushed angrily towards the cracked land, and soon the cracks in the ground disappeared, and in their place, small streams merged into several streams and flowed towards the Yongjiang River.
"Quack"
A frog jumped onto the lotus leaf by the river, puffing out its cheeks and looking at Ji Ji who was laughing in the heavy rain in surprise.
"Hahahaha, the sky will not stop me, the sky will not stop me."
Ji Zhan appointed Ji Qi as a patrol envoy to inspect the river and pray for blessings and rain, which was a thankless trick. In the past, I don't know how many people were dismissed from office by the rod because of "unfavorable work", which was simply a matter of luck, but they were caught up by Ji Qi and made great contributions.
Braving the heavy rain to rush back to Luoyi, Ji Qi laughed for three days, and it rained heavily for three days. Walking to the gate of Luoyi City, the sky was still a bean-sized raindrop, hitting the mottled old city wall, splashing a splash.
"This ...... Why doesn't this rain stop, it won't be a disaster. ”
Ji Qi put his hand on his head to make a rain curtain, and the palace houses in the distance were hidden in the rain curtain, hazy and strange.
"The master is blessed with all the heavens, maybe the heavens understand the master's hard work, rain a few more days, and irrigate my Dazhou fertile land."
Comforting Ji Qidao, it is strange to say, after the master and servant entered the city, before half an hour, the heavy rain suddenly stopped, like a movie scene suddenly changed, and the sun suddenly appeared.
He knelt down excitedly and said, "The master is blessed with all the blessings, and the slave knows." ”
Ji Qi shook off the water on his face, drooped his wet sleeves and returned to the mansion in high spirits, and then changed into new clothes and hurriedly entered the palace to resume his life.
Heavy rain after a major drought is not a new thing. But Ji Qi walked around outside, and this matter inevitably had something to do with him.
At the court meeting, Ji Zhan pressed the fire and rewarded Ji Qi in public, looking at his happy appearance, the armrests on the dragon chair were almost broken by him.
"Damn, God is also towards him."
Ji Zhan pointed to the sky with one hand, and hid his fist behind his back with the other hand, and roared silently: "I am the son of heaven of the Great Zhou, and I am the emperor of the Great Zhou." ”
"Click"
After a muffled thunder, Ji Zhan still maintained his original posture, but his legs and stomach were a little cramped, his face was a little pale, and beads of sweat couldn't stop falling.
He seemed to have forgotten that the first emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty had not died at this time, and he was still lying strong in the Liangyi Palace, salivating with crooked eyes and salivating wipes every day, listening to the recitation of the inner servants.
"Alas, the time has not yet come, I will endure it again."
Ji Zhan wiped the beads of sweat from his face, flicked his sleeves in a chic manner, and the beads of sweat flew over the temple door and landed on the steps, leaving a trace.
The sun was like fire, and the sweat drops were about to evaporate. "Click", another drop perfectly covered it, keeping that pinch of dust moist.
"Dada"
It was like the shower head was suddenly turned on, and the heavy rain poured down, and it only stopped for less than two days, and the surroundings of Luoyi became hazy again.
The previous three days of heavy rainfall, followed by two consecutive days, if Luoyi was not built on the Tianzhu Mountains, the terrain is higher and there is a complete drainage system, it would have become a piece of Zeguo. However, the north of the city is relatively low, and after the heavy rain fell on the fifth day, hundreds of thousands of people spontaneously rushed to the small hills and hills in the south of the city.
"God help me", Ji Zhan rolled up his sleeves alone and smiled madly at Yu Chang. Pray for rain and pray for floods, and it is difficult to escape the catastrophe.
The two edicts of the state of prison went out of the palace almost at the same time, and one was sent to the Zhisu Inner History Mansion to mobilize food to relieve the people; One was sent to the Ji Period Mansion in the east of the city, and thousands of East Palace guards wielded Tang knives and surrounded the Ji Period Mansion.
"The prince of the prison country has an order, and the guilty minister Ji will receive the order."
Ji Ye, the general of the central guard, rode on his horse, and shouted viciously, and the butler peeked at his face through the crack in the door, with a five-inch-long centipede scar on his face, and he fainted when he glanced at it timidly.
“… The sin is under the order of the minister. ”
I don't know how many times I shouted the same words, but no one responded, Ji Ye raised his head and drank a mouthful of rain to moisten his throat. Pointing to the vermilion gate: "Break the door." ”
The mansion of the ninth prince of the Great Zhou Dynasty was broken into by outsiders for the second time, and this wave of people was obviously more impolite, as soon as they entered the door, they swayed left and right, as if they were looking at whether there were valuable objects in the mansion, good-looking maidservants.
"Where is the period of the criminal minister, and I don't want to receive the edict of the prince of the prison country soon."
Ji Ye shouted violently, with a bit of murderous aura accumulated on the battlefield, the housekeeper's servant's face turned pale with fright, and he knelt on the ground and didn't dare to speak.
"Search for me"
Ji Ye waved his hand suddenly, but he waved it twice, this was the code he agreed with his subordinates, and he would frame Ji Ji for wanting to resist and rebel, and kill him on the spot.
"You dare!"
At this moment, an iron-faced old man in black clothes and white hair walked out on iron crutches, his eyes were cold, and he forgot about these soldiers, as if they had fallen into an ice cave.
