——

The roaring thunder resounded throughout the land of Qilu.

Outside the battlefield, all the way to the northeast.

First of all, Jining Road, it is rare to see people, and the most active is the figure of Yan soldiers, some are stationed in the city, and some patrol in the countryside. Hearing the thunder, they raised their heads. Someone said, "Ah, it's thundering." "Skimming through the rivers, crossing Jining Road, and continuing to the northeast, you will arrive at Tai'an Prefecture.

The area of Tai'an Prefecture is far less than that of Jining Road, which is about one-third the size of the latter; The number of cities is not as good as Jining Road, although there are counties such as Laiwu and Xintai, but there is only one larger city in Tai'an, and Changqing in the northwesternmost corner can also be regarded as a slight one.

There are several rivers in its territory, which either run directly from the northeast to the southwest, or flow from the east to the west, dividing the whole territory into several parts; In the middle of the ground zone a high mountain rises abruptly, the mountain is majestic, towering and heavy, towering into the sky, when the middle of summer, the pine and cypress are all over the mountain, especially against the backdrop of the hazy weather, it is more and more verdant, this is the world's famous, known as "the first mountain in the world" of Dongyue Taishan.

At this time, whether it is Laiwu, Xintai, or Tai'an, Changqing, if you talk about the people who have the most activities, it is the same as Jining Road, and they are all sergeants of the Yan Army. Moreover, compared with the dispersion of Jining Road, the soldiers here are more concentrated, and most of them are concentrated in the camps of Tai'an and Changqing.

Tai'an is in front of Qingshui, and behind is Mount Tai; There are also mountains on the left and right of Changqing, and Jinan is not far from the right. At the first moment of thunder, all the soldiers in the camp raised their heads. At the foot of Mount Tai, this awe-inspiring Tianwei is even more different from other places, giving people more shock. Someone whispered, "It's thundering." ”

After Tai'an, and then to the northeast, about 100 miles away, you will arrive at Yidu.

Because the battlefield is not here, and there is Tai'an as a gap between it and the battlefield, on the surface, the countryside around Yidu does not seem to be greatly affected, and even seems to be much busier than before the war. The wheat is ripe in June, and before you know it, it is almost harvest season.

The wheat all over the field undulates with the wind, looking at it from afar, the eyes are golden, and the trance seems to be boundless. If it is a sunny day, the golden yellow will turn into a dazzling golden light. Although it was cloudy, although there was also wind, compared to the battlefield of Shanzhou, which was hundreds of miles away, walking around Yidu, perhaps because the wheat was about to be harvested, did not make people feel gloomy or cold, but a kind of involuntary joy, involuntary demure, and even the wind seemed to be extraordinarily light and fragrant.

In the wheat fields, there are many farmers working hard.

Because of the war, Deng She transferred a lot of young people from the surrounding areas, either to transport supplies for the front line, or to serve as reserve troops, so most of the people working in the fields were women, children, and the elderly. Occasionally, you may also see soldiers,—— these soldiers are specially requested by Wu Henian to Deng She. On the one hand, it is responsible for the management of farmers; On the other hand, the temporary placement of cooperatives can make up for the shortage of labor in some villages.

Thunder rolled through the sky overhead, and the peasants and soldiers who were working couldn't help but pause and look up. The clouds are thicker, and the pressure is lower, turn your head to see the Yidu City not far away, under the low pressure of this cloud, it seems to be even taller, giving people an illusion, if you stand in the city tower, maybe you can touch the clouds with your hand. Someone said, "It's going to rain." ”

……

Yidu, on the upper floor of the city.

At this time, there was a group of people standing, including scribes with long sleeves and fluttering sleeves, samurai with helmets and armor, old men dressed as squires, and most of them officials dressed in vermilion. All these people were like stars holding the moon, surrounded by a young man in his twenties.

said that this young man was about twenty, but if you look closely, it seems that he is not enough to be weak. It's just that he has a short beard on his lips, and his complexion is very dark under the long-term wind and sun, it should be because he has been in a high position for a long time, his expression is also very dignified, and his demeanor is calm, so he looks older than his real age.

His outfit was very simple, just a plain robe, not even a belt, let alone a fish bag, sachet or other things, and the only thing he had with him was a folding fan in his hand.

When the thunder roared, he was holding a folding fan, pointing to the countryside in the distance, and saying something to the people around him.

The expressions of the people around him were different. The samurai stood erect with their faces solemn; The squires bowed slightly, leaning in and listening; The scribe with his long sleeves fluttering was leisurely, looking around; As for the officials with the largest number of people, they all behaved differently, and the most conspicuous were two people.

A white sideburn and black face, with a long neck and a high throat, is the most respectful. The other officials were at most attentive, and even the squire only bowed slightly, only he, bent his waist as fast as a shrimp, and nodded his head incessantly while listening, looking deferential and humble.

The other was just the opposite of him, and his perennial pampering made him full of red light, with a very thick beard, a shy chest and a bulging belly, and a very high spirit, standing on the side of the young man, looking left and right, and completely showing off. Everyone could see from his face that he was proud to show off, not because of himself or because of others, but simply because he could stand by the side of young people. With honor.

This young man is Dunshe. The scribe with long sleeves fluttering is Hong Jixun, and the one who bows like a shrimp is Wu Henian, and it is naturally Heguangxiu who shows off his pride. Deng She was talking to everyone about the wheat harvest and summer harvest. Wu Henian is the prefect of Yidu, and it is his duty to harvest wheat in summer, so it is no wonder that he is the most respectful.

As he was talking, he suddenly heard thunder. Deng She stopped abruptly, and Hong Jixun, who was looking around, also turned his head at the same time, and the two glanced at each other. Before Deng She could speak, he heard He Guangxiu's cry of "oops", reached out and touched his forehead, leaned out again, felt it for a moment, and said, "Lord, it's raining!" ”

None of the people brought umbrellas, Hong Jixun said: "Lord, you have also seen the situation of Mai Shu, the sky is very cloudy, and when the rain starts, maybe it will rain very hard, why don't we go back first?" ”

Deng She nodded, tapped the folding fan on his hand twice, and said to everyone: "You have been with me for most of the day today, a lot of hard work, the rain is coming, you don't have to follow me anymore, please go back to this mansion by yourself." I have already explained all the matters of the wheat harvest, and after you go back, please think about it carefully, and come to my house early tomorrow morning to present the specific implementation of the regulations. ”

Everyone replied, "Yes." ”

After Deng She went first, he went down to the city tower, and the officials and squires returned to their own mansions without mentioning it.

There are also 100 warriors waiting under the city tower, and a few warriors who went upstairs with Deng She will meet together, hug each other in front of and back, and guard Deng She to go to Yanwang's mansion. Hong Jixun, of course, was on his side. In addition, Ha Mitsu-so followed closely; There is also Wu Henian, Deng She specially stopped him, and there was something important to tell him on the way.

"Turtle age, it rained a lot in May and June, and it has been cloudy for several days, and this rain is not like a torrential rain, if it rains for a long time, it is about to reach the wheat harvest envoy, I am afraid that it will affect the harvest. You need to be aware of this. ”

"Yes. Please rest assured, after the minister returns, he will immediately organize manpower, as long as the rain does not stop tomorrow, and then start to drain the fields. ”

"It's not just about drainage. When I went to the countryside in the morning, I saw that a lot of wheat was ready for harvesting. If the rain doesn't stop, the harvest can begin. ”

"No."

"There is a war going on at the front. Turtle age, the autumn harvest is also a battle. You know very well the situation of our warehousing, there are almost no particles left. Tens of thousands of soldiers, millions of Yidu people, the second half of the year, including tomorrow's first half of the year, will eat, drink and Lazar, but they are all counting on this autumn harvest. You must not be careless, and you must not take it lightly! ”

"Yes."

"In addition, I know that there is a shortage of manpower in many places, and there is a shortage of strong men, and you are also very embarrassed. The fighting on the front line is very tight, and the non-commissioned officers in the battalion may be of great use in the future, and I can't give you too many people to replenish. You should think about how you can give full play to the role of cooperatives. ”

"Yes, yes."

"Didn't I ask you to send Wen to Pyongyang, Liaoyang, and South Korea a few days ago, and ask Wen, Chen, and Yao to send some grain to Yidu? Have you replied? ”

"Back to my lord, I haven't replied yet. However, before the ministers came to Yidu, they were in Pyongyang, and they were still relatively familiar with the situation in the three provinces of Korea, South Korea, and Liaoyang. Liaoyang doesn't say it, North Korea doesn't say it, South Korea is really good. The land is fertile, the rain is abundant, and Yao Pingzhang is a rare capable minister, and it is estimated that this year will definitely be a bumper harvest. The last time he ordered Haidong to transport grain, Yao Pingzhang said in his palindrome that he would try his best to harvest the autumn harvest early. Ordering him to send some grain to Yidu should not be a big problem. ”

The so-called "waiting for sin" is a common humble phrase used by courtiers when speaking to the lord, which means that they have not made any achievements in their duties, and are always waiting to be punished by the lord for dereliction of duty.

Deng She bowed his head and said with feeling: "South Korea, the location of the former Goryeo king, is full of old lords, and the power of the former Goryeo royal family is very great there. But since Jingting went, until now, he has been safe and stable. Although there was a conspiracy rebellion, it was eliminated as soon as it sprouted. This time, the hunting in Jining is also thanks to the power of South Korea's grain and straw delivery. Jingting, the true self of Xiao He Ye! ”

Jingting is Yao Haogu's number. From a poem by Li Bai: "I don't get tired of seeing each other, only Jingting Mountain".

Hearing Deng She's words, Hong Jixun smiled; Wu Henian said yes continuously, nodded his head like a chicken pecking rice, and said, "Yes, yes." What the lord said was very true. Yao Pingzhang is informal, has his own furrow in his chest, and is indeed a great good minister. ”

Ha Guangxiu also said: "Isn't it, when the villain was still in Pyongyang before, he often interacted with local celebrities, and when Yao Pingzhang was mentioned, he gave a thumbs up." Even the servants in the villain's house know that Yao Pingzhang is loyal and very good at doing things, and he is said to be the right-hand man of the lord. ”

"Oh, really?"

"Do you believe it? It's a pity that the villain didn't bring the slave to Yidu, why don't you send someone to summon him and let him say it to the lord in person? The villain never dared to deceive the lord. ”

"Haha, no need."

Yao Haogu was an official in South Korea, and his good name was able to spread to Pyongyang, which shows how his prestige in Goryeo was.

Let's talk about walking, and we came to a T-junction.

Go straight, it is the way to Yanwangfu; The turn is the road to Wu Henian's house.

At this time, the rain gradually fell, and little by little the raindrops were connected into thin lines, and the thousands of buildings in the city were bathed in the middle of it, hazy. A samurai took off his cloak and wanted to shelter Dunsha from the rain. He pushed it away with one hand and said with a smile: "A little rain is nothing." You need it! ......, Gu Ling, you don't have to accompany me, just go back." It's the same, Ming'er presented me the regulations for the autumn harvest early in the morning. ”

Wu Henian responded, but he didn't just leave, retreated to the side of the street, bent down, and waited for Deng She to go far away, and then returned to his own house.

……

The rain rustled on the roofs and on the ground. From time to time, a gust of wind blows, and the coolness is all over the body. After many days of hot and dreary weather, this is a unique place to walk on the streets.

Deng She took control of the reins and walked slowly according to the bridle, as he walked, looking at the shops on both sides of the street.

Originally, when it rained, there were few people on the street, because there was hardly a pedestrian on the road because of his passing, and even the shops were deserted. He was accustomed to this situation for a long time, and he didn't take it to heart, and he didn't make any exclamations such as "being a superior person, although the scenery is beautiful, it can't help but lose a lot of fun". The raindrops fell on the face, and it was cold. He smiled and said to Hong Jixun: "Mr. Hong, the summer is hot, and there is a cool rain. In this regard, is there a poetry? ”

Meng Dongye said: The mountains and rivers are clean after the rain, and the wheat is ripe and the grass and trees are cool. Although the sudden cold rain after the heat is indeed pleasant, but this rain came at an inopportune time, so the minister did not have poetry. ”

"Are you worried about the autumn harvest, sir?"

"It's not just the autumn harvest."

"What else?"

Hong Jixun has always been a folding fan, and he also has a folding fan, raised it and pointed to the southwest, and said with a worried face: "The minister is more worried about Shanzhou." ”
