Jiang Yuan has been very busy recently, and the sudden drought has spread to the entire land of Qilu, and even the rough Yi River is now only a trickle. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Many of the crops planted by the farmers rotted in the ground, and only a few sprouts sprouted, and they were slumped by the relentless sun.

It happened that Song Jiangbu traveled south and came to the boundary of Yizhou, and a thick stack of documents was piled up on his desk waiting for him to read.

Jiang Yuan was busy, but Meng Hong was another straw bale, he had been defeated repeatedly, and the opinions from above were very big, and he had already given him the final order, if he couldn't take Song Jiang, he wouldn't bring the black gauze hat.

Jiang Yuan is not nostalgic for the black gauze hat on his head, what makes him sad is that the drought is so serious, the boss only issued an order to suppress bandits, and did not say how to relieve the disaster.

The right confuses the mind, and only cares about personal gains and losses, how can the court not die?

Jiang Yuan and the farmer stood in the field, their sleeves pulled up, their trouser legs tied up with ropes, leaking out of their white thighs, and they looked like they were working.

Beside him stood a scrawny old man, on crutches, sighing at the sparse wheat seedlings that had just poked their heads out of the field.

"This is God's punishment, punishing our greed, we only know how to take, we don't know how to return, the lackeys of the court are scourge in this world, the people are not happy, and they are finally going to get retribution. ”

The old peasant is the mind of the older generation, and as long as the vision of the sky appears, he feels that God is punishing the world.

But think about it, it is also that every court always has one or another vision in the end, so as to re-select the Son of Heaven in the world.

"Old money, you can't talk nonsense, you want to kill your head!"

Jiang Yuan reminded the old farmer.

"I'm a lot older, I've already seen through life and death, just say something from my heart, as long as you are kind to me outside the law, the old man thinks no one will be embarrassed. ”

What Lao Qian said is true, he is so old, he has seen everything, and now his task is to eat and wait for death, and he can't worry about other things.

If killing a few people can save the people of the world from fire and water, the old man is willing to be this wicked man, but now it is not a matter of killing people, but of saving people.

The bandits are rampant, and the officers and soldiers have no belief in victory.

What is wrong with this world? The great country has been ruined by these traitors. ”

I thought that Lord Zhizhou would always safeguard the interests of officialdom, but I didn't expect that he was also a good official who spoke for the people.

Lao Qian's heart suddenly lost his estrangement, and he let go of the powerful people who scolded the capital regardless of the life and death of the people, built a large number of buildings, bought and sold officials, and became extravagant, which eventually led to this disaster.

In the end, Lao Qian simply knelt on the ground and prayed that God would rain dry dew and save all the people in the world.

It seems that Lao Qian's prayer has been favored by God, and in an instant, dark clouds are thick, thunder is rolling, and the rain of beans is crackling.

One of the four fortunate things in life is that there is a long drought and a rainy day.

The people of Yizhou City celebrated the long-lost rain unbridled, even if they were drenched all over their bodies, they still stayed in the rain, letting the rain fall on their bodies.

The people who were still working in the fields put down the farm tools in their hands one after another, and followed Lord Zhizhou to a ruined temple not far away to hide from the rain.

There were smiles on everyone's faces, as if the rain had come down and they had seen the harvest in the autumn.

Jiang Yuan took the lead in putting a stick of incense on the gods in the temple, and everyone knelt on the ground and kowtowed, expressing their gratitude to the gods in their hearts.

Lao Qian shook his head and sighed vigorously, Jiang Yuan asked the reason, Lao Qian said without reservation: "Although the rain is falling, but the seeds planted in the ground, I am afraid that they will be bad early, the farmers have been busy for a year, and there are no extra seeds left, if the rain is over to rush the seeds, there is no way to provide the seeds in the first time, and even if there is, the farmers cannot afford to buy them."

The conscience of those rich farmers is broken, knowing that the farmers are now short of seeds, and the price will definitely rise sharply, and there is still no way to do it at that time.

The year of famine is already doomed, the peasant households are destined to have enough to eat this year, and they will have to owe a lot of debts, and if the situation cannot be changed in the coming year, then the peasants will have only one way to rebel. ”

Lao Qian is not alarmist, everyone is very clear in their hearts, but they don't dare to be the first to say it.

Since someone picked the head, everyone started chattering.

Jiang Yuan is also the first two big, the imperial court is the seed of remedy, and they are all placed in the regular liquidation, even if they are taken now, it is too late.

There are a lot of wars in the imperial court this year, and the empty ones in the regular liquidation can already run horses, even if the imperial court has the heart to provide disaster relief, I am afraid that there is nothing that can be done.

Now only the rich and grain merchants have grain in their hands, and Jiang Yuan does not expect those grain merchants who are accustomed to sucking blood to have a kind heart, and can provide seeds for farmers to plant free of charge in time.

Jiang Yuan took a deep breath, not knowing if he was going to cheer himself up again.

Grain merchants are also human beings, as long as they are given enough commitment and relaxed policies, the seed matter will surely be solved.

It's just that over the years, Jiang Yuan, as the governor of Yizhou, has been very harsh on these black-hearted businessmen, and if he asks people now, I don't know if they will buy it.

The rain is still falling, and it seems that it will not stop for a while, and after the thunderstorm turns into general rain, the rain will fall, but it will not stop, and it will rain for a long time.

"Folks, don't worry, the seeds planted in the ground may not be bad yet, if they are really bad, the old man will put a list to appease the people, and the seeds that farmers need will come out of the state yamen. ”

As soon as these words were spoken, Jiang Yuan took on a very heavy burden, and the stones in the hearts of the villagers finally landed.

For this prefect, there is a good reputation, and the blind dates are still very trusting.

After Jiang Yuan finished speaking, he left in the rain, because he was going to talk to those grain merchants from now on, whether it was successful or not, the posture had to be made first.

Wu Xi was standing in the rain at the moment, enjoying the feeling of the rain on his body.

These days, it is really dry, and the throat is a little red, if it continues to be so dry, it is a person who will not be able to stand it, in that case, this time it is called opening up the business road, but in fact, the plan to make a good future for the meridian camp has to be stopped in Yizhou.

How many people have been looking forward to the arrival of this rain, and now it has finally come true.

I hope that this rain will not only bring food growth to the Great Song Dynasty, but also that it is best to wake up those bastards in the court and bring good luck to the Great Song Dynasty.

The seeds have long been planted in the ground, and those who can live have taken root and sprouted, and those who cannot live have long since died in the ground.

It's only June, and if the rain is saturated, it will be possible to plant grain after the rain stops, and although the crops planted late may be smaller, it is better than nothing.

But the farmers have no extra seeds in their hands, and the next thing is to see the means of this governor.

Meng Hong is really a bastard, he surrounded Mengshan well, withdrew the official army without authorization, and left an opening for Song Jiang, just to see his methods as a bandit.

The heart is so small, isn't it just that he said two words? As for doing it so ruthlessly?

Qingyang is still back, no matter where Wu Xi goes, he can always find his location accurately.

He was wearing a cloak on his body, he was drenched inside, there was an obvious scratch on his leg, it had already formed a scar, the wound was new, it should have been left by the sword, presumably he went out this time and suffered a lot.

Butterfly was standing outside the tent with Xu Qingfeng watching the rain, stretching out her hand from time to time, she didn't understand Wu Xi's behavior of standing in the rain, pointing and telling jokes.

Suddenly seeing Qingyang appear, the little rabbit in her heart began to bump into the rain, slamming into the rain, regardless of the rain drenching her body, she stepped forward to ask with concern, and the words showed a warm greeting, so that Xu Qingfeng, who was standing on the side, unconsciously looked at the thunder leopard who was training soldiers in the rain not far away.

Look at whether a man's shoulders can be relied on, and a resolute look will tell you all the answers.

Wu Xi saw that the little couple was sorry to disturb, so he asked Qingyang to deal with it and then come to the camp to discuss in detail.

After returning to the camp, he asked people to prepare wine and food, pour themselves drinks, and wait for Qingyang to come back.

After dark, Qingyang changed his clothes and quietly appeared in front of Wu Xi.

"I've told you, can you make a little noise, it's always so sudden, if I want to be stubborn, I'll shoot if I can't keep it. ”

Wu Xi complained that Qingyang always scared him and appeared quietly.

Qingyang had no expression on his face, sat down, drank a glass of wine, drank very slowly, and then ate a few mouthfuls of food, and then put down the chopsticks in his hand, and the salt beans that he usually likes to eat didn't even move.

Wu Xi felt that he must have gained something, but the news was probably not so good, and he was just about to make a joke about him and Butterfly about the bed, but he couldn't say it at the moment.

"How's the catch?"

Wu Xi put away the smile on his face and asked.

"The situation is not optimistic, the other party is outnumbered, and it is no longer poor to see that the skills are no longer poor, but they follow from a distance, and when they reach the boundary of Yizhou, they lose contact, and then they heard the news from a beggar.

It is said that several strongmen arrested a person in the Guan Gong Temple and went in the direction of Mengshan.

The direction of Mengshan is where Song Jiangbu is stationed, and I think that Yiqing is to set up a line with them and secretly do some business. ”

Qingyang said heavily.

"What's the deal with the injury on your leg?"

Wu Xi didn't ask about the result, he asked about the wound, Qingyang was moved for a while when he heard it, but he didn't show it.

"When I was tracking, I was scratched by the thorns on the mountain, and it was not in the way. ”

Qingyang tried his best to hide the cause of the wound.

"Although I don't know martial arts, but you are obviously a sword wound, why do you hide it from me? You must have sneaked in in the middle of the night to save people. ”

Qingyang had no choice before nodding and admitting.

The people in Song Jiangbu are not all wastes, there are many people who used to be regimental training envoys or gun and stick instructors and other positions, and they have deep attainments in martial arts.

Although one or two people no longer talk about it, but under the attack of the group, Qingyang did not get a bargain.

"Do you know where the bullseye baby is held?"

"In a cave in the back mountain. ”

"How's eating and drinking?"

"The water and grass are smooth! but ......"

"But what?"

Wu Xi asked nervously, what he hated most was to say these scary words.

"But Poor Dao went out this time and heard a very bad news, you have to prepare in advance. ”

Qingyang pretended to be mysterious.
