Jiangnan, although it was already midnight at this time, but the farmers were still guarding the rice field, the rain was dripping on the straw shack, and several farmers in the house were chatting, it seems, they were very satisfied with the current situation.

Several people chatted together, and suddenly saw a group of people in the distance walking towards this side with lanterns, these people glanced at each other, and continued to sit in the house to watch the excitement.

But they didn't want to, the pedestrian gradually got closer, and they only found out that it was Lord Liu from the government and a group of catchers.

"Hello adults!" The farmers smiled and kindly let them in to shelter from the rain.

"Fathers and fellow villagers are fine at night, this is today's Xiangguo Lord, he also rushed over overnight to see you, it just so happens that you haven't slept, is this the government and the people are concentric!" Liu Xiu said again.

Everyone was shocked, this is the Lord Xiangguo above one person and below ten thousand people?

These people hurriedly knelt down, because they only remembered the two Shangshu lords, so they had almost ignored this so-called Xiangguo lord.

"Grass people, I've seen Lord Xiangguo!" Several people hurriedly bowed, which was to salute when they saw a first-class official and the emperor's relatives in the Great Yuan Kingdom.

However, this number of courtesies is not mandatory, it is sufficient to bow out of politeness and respect, and there is no provision in the Dayuan law that disrespectful people will be punished.

Prime Minister Fang Chengmou's majestic face immediately showed a smile, and he helped him again.

"Everyone, please get up, I can't afford this courtesy!" The prime minister said again.

"Thank you, sir!"

These farmers don't know if there are a lot of big events this year, how can this unreachable prime minister come here?

Just when everyone was puzzled, this Liu Xiu smiled and said: "This time, the prime minister can't sleep after tossing and turning, so I came to see you." Since you are all right, then the adults will naturally be happy. ”

Prime Minister: "Yes, I was not accustomed to the water and soil when I first came to Jiangnan, and I woke up today and heard such a big event, if I don't come to take a look, I am really uneasy." ”

Farmer: "Your Excellency, you have a heart, everything is fine here." ”

The peasants seemed reluctant to talk to the prime minister, but they had to respond quickly because of their noble status.

In their hearts, the Lord of Beigong is a god-like existence. If you should shoot, you will shoot, so where can you find a good man?

Prime Minister: "I heard that the two Shangshu lords are also here, and their intelligence really makes me admire." When I return to Kyoto, I will definitely report their merits to the emperor. ”

Liu Xiu: "My lord, you are also indispensable, this time you came to Jiangnan, you also want to share more for the people, but you are not feeling well, it is better to take good care." ”

Prime Minister: "I will not give up doing things for all the people in the world." ”

When the farmer heard this, he nodded cooperatively. The prime minister smiled happily, and continued to talk to them for a while, and by the faint light of the lantern candle, he swam quickly in the rice fields again.

Since then, he has also received a share of credit.

"I think these adults are wholeheartedly good for us, and the prime minister just failed to come over to help because he was not accustomed to the water and soil. However, he has just arrived, and he is very patient to talk to us, and I think this is also a wise official. ”

"What you said is also a bit reasonable, the Prime Minister is also an existence that cannot be ignored."

"What makes a lot of sense, it makes a lot of sense. They think about the people like this, why don't we erect a monument of merit for them on behalf of the people of Jiangnan? In this way, their deeds can be passed down through the ages, and future generations can also know their deeds, right? ”

"Good way!"

The peasants gathered together to discuss for a while, and after a while they went to the person who carved the stone tablet.

The rain fell quietly from the dark clouds, and the river was menacing, but in a moment it turned into the newly dug channel.

The stonemason's house is full of swords, hammers and sickles, and it is a good time to practice swords.

"Blacksmith Wang, open the door!" Several farmers knocked on the door, only to see a man with a tall cow and a big horse, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, walking out.

"What?"

These peasant farmers told the story back and forth, and the blacksmith probably understood.

"It's the whole stele, isn't it? Well said, come in! "This blacksmith is a bit fierce, but his character is still quite good.

"Let's see if you can get a whole stone tablet out in one night? If we can, we'll send it there tomorrow morning, so that we can surprise them too." A farmer laughed.

"Yes, I can start the manuscript now, and I will write it later." Blacksmith Wang said.

He brought a large piece of white paper and spread it out in front of the people. I lowered my head and thought about it, then I compared gestures on this paper, and I looked up when I felt that it was almost there.

"Which adult's name comes first?" He asked again.

These people fell silent, yes, whose name comes first, this is a science.

The Prime Minister is also involved, and it can't be said that he has no credit. But even if he doesn't have credit, it can't be written on the back. But the prime minister is an official, who is higher than Shangshu!

"It's not good for us to offend the Prime Minister, but Lord Shangshu is the one who comes up with ideas, if you write Lord Shangshu in the back, I'm afraid it's not good!"

"But if you write him in front, wouldn't it be embarrassing for the Prime Minister?"

"What a headache for this! We just want to thank the three adults. ”

The rain was pouring outside the door, and the raindrops hit the green brick floor, splashing water droplets on the ground.

Who to choose? These people were hesitant. Blacksmith Wang's face turned a little dark, and he said angrily, "What didn't you think about what you could do here? It's a waste of my time, isn't it? ”

Peasant: "There is nothing that is not there, Blacksmith Wang, you wait a little longer, I will tell you!" ”

The peasants discussed in a whisper for a while, and finally decided to put the name of the prime minister first.

The blacksmith first wrote it down, and then found the corresponding template for each word and arranged it on the stone tablet. These glyph-shaped templates are very simple and convenient, just fix them on the stone tablet, and then carve them out with a knife and then draw some red dye.

Of course, these dyes will fade. If you want to protect it, you can only reapply the dye every other year, so that the stele can retain its vivid appearance.

The next day, a large crowd gathered in front of the yamen.

As soon as Dai Chengming and Beigong Yu came out, they were crowded into the crowd, and there was a noise in their ears, Dai Chengming was quite displeased, but he had to endure it.

"Everyone, be quiet, Lord Beigong has just recovered, don't hurt him." On behalf of Cheng Mingdao.

He knew that it was almost impossible for Beigong Yu to shout in public, so ah, he simply shouted for him.

As soon as the group heard that it might hurt Lord Beigong, they immediately dodged to the side, and at this time, several peasant households came over carrying something covered with red cloth.

"Two adults! This is something that the people of Jiangnan gave you, be careful, and hope to accept it! An uncle laughed.

"You have a heart, we are just doing our best, this gift is exempt, right?" On behalf of Cheng Mingdao.

"That's not good, this is what I want to give you, you are the lucky stars of our Jiangnan, and the people of Jiangnan will always remember your kindness!"

"Thank you!"

I saw these people lift the red cloth, and an incomparably bright engraved stone tablet appeared in front of everyone.

Thanks to the Prime Minister Fang Chengmou, the Prime Minister saved the people of Jiangnan from fire and water on behalf of Cheng Ming and Beigong Yu, and his kindness will not be forgotten by future generations!

Dai Chengming looked at it and finally saw that something was wrong. However, he did not say it because it was a piece of the people's heart.

"Thank you all, it's been worth it!" On behalf of Cheng Mingdao.

"Your Excellency, you're polite, this is our little heart, you can accept it for the time being!"

Several people also erected the monument of merit outside the yamen, and everyone passing by could also take a look. This time, the people were able to survive the flood unharmed, and it was all thanks to the help of a few adults!

After the people left, Dai Cheng Ming leaned against the door, sighed deeply, and said, "Obviously, you have the most credit, but your name is written at the end, isn't it a little unfair?" ”

Beigong Yu sneered and said, "If you really want to get the people to bow down when you do this, then why don't you spend money to invite a few people to tell my deeds all over the world?" ”

Dai Chengming: "Yes! Otherwise, it would be so infuriating to let some people take advantage of it in vain! ”

The prime minister obviously didn't do anything, and he wanted to engrave his name on the front because of his official position, which is a little chilling. However, Dai Chengming is strange, why can this Beigong Yu look so lightly at such a young age?

If this happens to you, you may be so angry that you can't eat for a few days and nights!

Even if I am not satisfied with the Prime Minister, there is no way to do it. Who makes the family a high official? If his official position is lower than his own, it is estimated that he will not feel so uncomfortable in his heart.

"Who are you?" Beigong Yu suddenly asked.

"Orange? Do you know Orange? Dai Chengming asked.

"She's your sister?"

"It's really the little sister in the family, but she's in the palace all the year round, don't talk about her, I really forgot that there is such a sister!"

Dai Chengming's face turned red, he talked about the ruin of his family all day long, but he didn't remember his sister like selective amnesia.

Beigong Yu didn't ask about her today, and he probably couldn't remember that he had a younger sister.

"Orange has served Concubine Ling in the palace all the year round, and since she entered the palace at the age of seven, I have only had a few opportunities to meet her. I really forgot about her by accident. ”

"Then you know, where has she been lately?"
