Chapter 238: Collapse

The young man in Tsing Yi is actually a girl in Tsing Yi, her father is Liu Dianshu of Qingshui County, and he has served in Qingshui County for more than ten years.

Because of his upright and honest temperament, although he has never made a mistake over the years, he is also diligent in his work, and he has never been promoted.

Fortunately, Liu Dianshu himself is a down-to-earth character, coupled with the harmony and friendship of his wife, son and daughter, although he is not rich, he is also comfortable.

I don't know that I just took office at the beginning of this year as a county magistrate named He Zhiqiu, and I don't know what his ability is, but in just a few weeks, Qingshui County knows that he has a son who likes to spend and drink.

His son usually likes to flirt with women from good families on the street, and one day he met the eldest daughter of Liu Dianshu's family, and he was shocked, and after he went back, he asked his father to come forward and want to welcome other girls into the house.

He Zhiqiu's son is already in his prime, and there are countless wives and concubines in the family, and Liu Dianshu's daughter is unwilling to commit to such a person.

Liu Dianshu himself is a straight man, and after going home and asking his wife and daughter, he rejected He County's order on the second day.

He Xianling didn't show any displeasure on his face, but he found a reason to put Liu Dianshu in prison the next week.

At the same time, he beat gongs and drums to Liu Dianshu's house to pick up his girl.

When the kind-hearted neighbor heard the news, he ran to Liu Dianshu's house to tell him, which shocked Liu Dianshu's family.

Because of Liu Dian's unjust imprisonment, his wife was worried and sick and lay in bed.

After learning the news, he reluctantly got up and ordered the eldest daughter to take her maidservant and leave Qingshui County immediately in disguise.

"My mother asked us to escape from Qingshui County and go to the capital to find my uncle, and ask my uncle to think of a son to rescue my father."

"Those officers and soldiers are chasing us," the girl in Tsing Yi said frankly, "My father is too wronged, and the little girl is worried that she will not be able to save her father when she goes to the capital." I also asked the two sons to be kind enough to help. The little woman is willing to repay the two of them for her slaves and maids. ”

After the girl in Tsing Yi complained, she was taken outside the door by Yinbao to wait for a while.

Qin Ze in the house muttered: "He Zhiqiu, the county commander of Qingshui County, was indeed transferred from another county in March this year. Although his political achievements in the first three years did not have many bright spots, there were no serious mistakes. ”

The officials of Daqing State generally serve a term of three years, and He Zhiqiu was also appointed as a county commander in the previous county, and because of his mediocre performance, he was transferred to the same level in the new term.

"If it's really as Miss Liu said, because the family affair is not successful, let the book go to prison for no reason," Qin Ze pursed his thin lips, "This kind of moth is not worthy of being an official in my Daqing!" ”

Seeing that Qin Ze was angry, Fu Yuanyuan patted him lightly and said, "We are just going to Qingshui County, why don't we take Miss Liu with us, so we can check the situation." ”

When Miss Liu heard that the two sons were willing to take her back to Qingshui County to understand the situation, she was happy and excited, and thanked her repeatedly.

Everyone came to a conclusion, and they simply had breakfast and were ready to go.

The rain outside still hasn't stopped, although it is not as heavy as at night, but it is still dripping, and there is no sign of stopping the rain.

Fu Yuanyuan looked at the gloomy sky: "I don't know when this rain will stop?" ”

"Childe Xu is from out of town," Miss Liu said, "Our Qingshui County has been raining for almost a whole month this month, and it hasn't stopped." ”

An Shun strode into the post house from outside the door: "Master, the little one has rented a carriage and can set off." ”

Qin Ze went out this time in an ordinary carriage, but now that Fu Yuanyuan is here, the couple are sharing a carriage.

Because the rain didn't stop, I had to rent an extra carriage for the rest of the people to ride.

The means of transportation were ready, and everyone had no intention of staying longer, so they got into the carriage and rushed towards Qingshui County.

In order to save time, I packed a lot of dry food in the post house and prepared lunch directly on the carriage.

"Manful," Qin Ze didn't worry about his own hardships, but he felt sorry for his daughter-in-law, "I have wronged you all the way." ”

Fu Yuanyuan laughed: "This is nothing. ”

I used to walk with my uncle or maternal great-grandfather, and I faced more difficult environments.

Hearing Manman mention the past, Qin Ze became interested, took her in his arms and said, "Manman will tell me about it again." ”

The couple whispered in the carriage.

After saying something for half an hour, suddenly the carriage braked suddenly, and Fu Yuanyuan, who had not checked for a while, crashed into Qin Ze's arms.

Rubbing his sore nose, Fu Yuanyuan said in a low voice, "What's wrong?" ”

"Childe, it's not good!"

Yinbao shouted outside, and soon opened the curtain and came in, "The road outside is blocked, and I can't get through." ”

"Blocking the road?"

Yinbao nodded: "There are two carriages in front of us, and An Shun is going to the front to inquire about the situation." ”

Fu Yuanyuan and Qin Ze glanced at each other, and then said, "Let's go and have a look." ”

Several people put on their robes and got out of the carriage.

"Full, be careful."

The crowd walked a short distance and were shocked by what they saw.

The official road not far away was full of mud rolling stones, piled up half a foot high.

Looking at the mountain on one side, Fu Yuanyuan said: "I think it was the rain that washed down the mud and rocks on the mountain, and I don't know if there are people in front of me." ”

Qin Ze frowned: "The slope here is too steep, and the maintenance is neglected, and the rain has soaked the soil for several days, so that the stability of the soil is not enough, which caused a landslide." ”

An Shun ran back from the front: "Master, the collapse in front of you is several zhang long, but fortunately there are no casualties. ”

"I have sent someone to inform the Shixing County Government, and I think that I will arrange for officers and soldiers to clear the road as soon as possible."

Hearing that no one was trapped in front of them, everyone's hearts were slightly relieved.

"I'm afraid I have to wait for the official road to open before I can go to Qingshui County."

Looking up at the dark sky, the rain was raining, Qin Ze frowned, "Let's go back to the post house first." ”

When I returned to the inn, I was greeted by the postman.

"The news of the collapse has been received from Shixing County," the post official said, "The officers and soldiers have been arranged to clean it up, but this road is wet and slippery, and I am afraid it will take a lot of effort." ”

Qin Ze asked, "How much time is it estimated to take?" ”

The postman shook his head: "It will take at least half a day to come." ”

"That's it," Fu Yuanyuan suggested, "let's rest at the inn and wait for news before we set off." ”

In the evening, there was still no news that the road was clear.

"From north to south," everyone sat down at the table to discuss, "only this official road leads to Qingshui County." If we want to make a detour," Qin Ze drew on the table with his wet fingers, "we have to go all the way from here to the west, pass through Yishan County and then enter Qingshui County." ”

"It's a long way," Fu Yuanyuan watched, "I'm afraid I'll have to make a detour for two or three days to get to Qingshui County." ”

"It's getting late now," Qin Ze nodded, agreeing with Fu Yuanyuan's statement: "Let's wait here all night, and we'll leave tomorrow when the official road is opened." ”
