Chapter 54 Pingxiang Festival Envoy.
When Shangguan Boyu took everyone to Chang'an City, it was already five days later, and when they came, many people from other sects also came one after another, preparing food and medicine for the refugees, not only that, Zheng Lin also saw some Chang'an soldiers in the crowd, and it seemed that they also came to help the refugees.
At this time, Xuan Ku was recording the food and medicine they bought, and when he saw Shangguan Boyu, Xuan Ku stood up, folded his hands, and said: "Shangguan Dao Chief, you are also here, Poor Dao is recording the relief silver taels and food and medicine of various sects, and how much gold and silver is used is also recorded one by one, so as not to make mistakes." ”
Shangguan Boyu nodded and said, "Master Xuanku has thought thoughtfully, and my Pure Yang Palace has also brought 10,000 taels of gold according to the amount agreed in advance, and at the same time, Zheng Lin also represents the nine days to help the refugees, about 100,000 taels. ”
Xuan Ku looked at Zheng Lin in surprise, he naturally learned about Zheng Lin's situation from Xuan Zhong and others, but now that he heard that he gave away 100,000 taels of gold on behalf of Jiutian, it would be unbelievable how to say it. But Zheng Lin was not ambiguous at all, and took out all the belongings obtained from the Nine Heavens Treasure in the Dao Ring, Xuan Ku was even more surprised when he saw this box of gold and jewelry, but he still recorded these things, the signature in front of the 100,000 taels of gold was Zheng Lin, but there were three words below his name, "Dai Jiutian".
After preparing these, Zheng Lin planned to help take care of the refugees, suddenly, someone patted him on the shoulder, Zheng Lin looked back, it was a fairy tale and a Dugu smile, Zheng Lin smiled, and asked: "Didn't you solve the matter of the gang's territory in Bailongkou, why did you come here?" ”
Fairy Tale pointed at Dugu and smiled, and said: "He received a letter from the beggar gang and wanted him to come to Chang'an City to help, so we came with him, and Zi Ling also donated some property to the refugees on behalf of Tianxia Qianzhuang, by the way, this time many people from all major sects came, and even the Beidi Badao Villa was invited to help, it seems that this Badao Villa is going to come out of the mountain again, and I took a closer look, there are many masters among them." ”
Hearing the fairy tale's words, Zheng Lin turned his gaze to the right rear, where there was a team of people wearing purple robes and white shoulder scarves, according to the introduction of the fairy tale, they were the disciples of Badao Villa, but Zheng Lin didn't know any of them, so they didn't particularly care, a few of them were going to find Xuan Ku to see the construction of the refugee camp, and at this time Xuan Ku was discussing with an official and the heads of various sects At this time, that official was the Pingxiang Festival envoy in charge of this area, Fan Yang.
After Xuan Ku recorded the account book, he handed it to Fan Yang and said: "My lord, here are the goods and medicines donated by our various sects and Haoqi Alliance, since the imperial court is unwilling to allocate disaster relief money, we come out of the rivers and lakes, but now we need adults to approve a piece of land for us to build a refugee camp, we can't let all the refugees be in this broad daylight, if it rains, the scorching sun, how can they stand it?" ”
Fan Yang flipped through the account book and said: "How can this official not know the seriousness of this matter, but according to the laws of this dynasty, the approval of land requires the documents and seals of the Zhongshu Shilang in Chang'an City, but I can't be the master, alas, in this way, please go and choose a good place first, and then estimate how much land is needed, I will go to find the Zhongshu Shilang." ”
After speaking, Fan Yang rode a horse and went straight to the inner city of Chang'an City, Zheng Lin looked at the fairy tale and said: "If my guess is right, he may not be able to succeed, let's follow and see, if there is anything you need help with, maybe you can do something." ”
Fairy Tale also nodded, and the four of them quietly walked into Chang'an City, the Zhongshu Shilang Mansion is in the center of the West City, the largest courtyard, covering an area of a full radius of one thousand meters, when they appeared outside the Shilang Mansion, Fan Yang had arrived, but the guards at the door stopped it, Fan Yang said: "I am Fan Yang, the envoy of the Pingxiang Festival, I have something important to ask to see the Lord Shilang, please report." ”
But who knew that the guard pushed him away and said, "I know you, last month my family celebrated his birthday, you came to celebrate your birthday but entered empty-handed, and in the end I blasted you out, why, do you want to rely on our family?" No way! Roll on. ”
Fan Yang said angrily: "You are so unreasonable, this official came this time for the refugee, if you delay the business, I see how you can explain to the adults." ”
"Confess? My family said, everything related to refugees, ignore it, I look at you, it's better to save some effort, now the court doesn't care, how can you manage it with a small section? The guard's tone was so domineering, it was obvious that Cao Jianfei had informed him in advance.
Fan Yang was helpless at this time, he was not a military general, and he couldn't break in, so he pointed to the guards and said: "I am waiting for the court to be an official, and the food Junlu should share the king's worries, and now the Jianghu forces have prepared a lot of property for the refugees, just ask the Zhongshu Shilang to approve a piece of land, so that the refugees have a place to stay, isn't this okay?" ”
The guard scratched his ears and said, "I said, if you ignore everything about refugees, a piece of land is not the territory of the Tang Dynasty?" How can you give these refugees casually, and when the time comes, they should have to move in an inch, do they still have to live in Chang'an City! I said no, I can't do it, you, let's go back, ah, I advise you to leave this matter alone, it's not good for you. ”
Fan Yang took a few steps back, shook his head, and said: "As an official of the imperial court, you don't think about the people, you only care about your own extravagance and forget your worries, the people are the foundation of the country, but you are so ridiculous, if Lord Shilang refuses to approve the land today, the official will live and die with the refugees, and kneel and die in front of the Shilang Mansion first." ”
After that, Fan Yang took a few steps back again, lifted his robe and knelt in front of the gate of the Shilang Mansion, this scene also attracted a lot of people, some of them knew Fan Yang well, and they also came to ask the reason. And the four Zheng Lin on the side, when they saw this scene, they were also very surprised, in today's society, there are such officials who ask for the people's lives, which is really gratifying, especially Zheng Lin, he has never experienced this kind of thing, but when he saw it with his own eyes, the shock is self-evident.
What is asking for the people's life, what is a clean and honest official, for a while, Fan Yang's figure looked so tall in front of Zheng Lin, perhaps subconsciously, Zheng Lin actually walked over by himself, he didn't say a word, and knelt a foot behind Fan Yang's right, Fan Yang looked at Zheng Lin in surprise, but the latter smiled at him and said.
"The people are important, the officials are light, the people are important, and the monarch is light."
A simple sentence made Fan Yang feel much better, kneeling there, still tall and majestic. In fact, Zheng Lin's kneeling was also to convince himself that if he wanted to be the emperor in the future, he had to first make himself cold to the current imperial court, and the practice of the Shilang Mansion could just allow him to achieve this goal.
