Chapter 613: The Plague of Bloodlight

The wharf, the most wounded parting place, the shore of the willow branches, was broken off a lot, handed over to the hands of pedestrians, and stayed in the city. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info Xia Wan handed the little gold treasure into Mi Yichao's hands, and also stepped forward to fold a long willow branch and gave it to Lan Yi, "Folding willows is the old custom of sending people away, sister, gathering and scattering in a hurry, this hatred is endless, I wish you and I will meet again as soon as possible." ”

Lan Yi took the willow branch and smiled crookedly, "Sister, how about you and I meet in the peony season?" ”

Xia Wan glanced back at her husband and nodded vigorously, "Okay, I won't miss the appointment." ”

Mi Yichao saw that Zhou Weiji was in such a hurry to leave, and vaguely guessed that it was related to the border war, but Zhou Weiji was tight-mouthed and refused to reveal a point, and Mi Yichao could only ask a few words, "Yesterday I received an official document from the state government to transfer 30,000 stone of grain from the granary of Mei County, and tomorrow it will be shipped out of the warehouse and shipped to Dengzhou. ”

Zhou Weiji answered, but what he said was not what Mi Yichao wanted to hear, "There has been no snow in the surrounding counties of Huang County since last winter, and there is little rain this spring. ”

Mi Yichao's face was solemn when he heard that there was a drought, he knew the horror of the drought, even if it was not too serious, there was river water to irrigate the land, but the ensuing insect plague was enough to ruin a year's harvest. When merchants see the drought, they will hoard grain in advance and raise grain prices, causing panic on one side, and even a rebellion among displaced people, so it is possible to transport grain and grass in advance to prevent it.

"When the newly appointed county magistrate of Huangxian County, Liu Guogeng Liu, was in Fengxiang as the county magistrate, he encountered a drought in Fengxiang, and this time he will be able to make full preparations so as not to make the people's grievances boil. Huangxian County has a lot of mountains and water, it does not rain for half a year, and it will not kill the crops by drought, and there is no drought in Dengzhou in the past 20 years, and this time it should be just a false alarm. Xiao Jinbao watched his brother and Wen Xuan folding willow branches and weaving hats next to him, twisting his little fat body and about to go down to play, Mi Yichao saw that he was wearing thick-soled shoes, so he handed him over to the nurse and let him walk two steps on the ground.

Mi Yichao's ancestral home is Dengzhou Yidu, and it is reasonable to know one or two about the situation in Dengzhou, but listening to his words, it is not just as simple as understanding one or two, even Liu Guogen's situation is also familiar to him, it seems that he has put a lot of effort into these aspects, and then looking at his style of acting, Zhou Weiji feels that this person's official career must be more than the county. However, Zhou Wei was extremely displeased with the civil official style he had learned from this way, and he did not want to say more to him, and when he saw that Wang Chengde and Zheng had already carried the luggage of a carriage to the ship, he left with everyone and was about to set off.

Zheng took Lan Yi's hand and told him in every possible way, Wang Chunrong saw that their mother and daughter were talking endlessly, and couldn't help but interrupt beside him, "Mother, okay, the old lady will go to Huangxian in a few days, won't you see it again, if you keep talking, it's going to be dark!" ”

Zheng glanced at him, let go of Lan Yi, and grabbed Wen Xuan for a long time before letting them on board. In order to hurry back, this time it was the Zhang family's fast passenger boat, and there were 16 boatmen, if there was no wind and rain, they could arrive in Huang County in five days. Lan Yi took Wen Xuan around the boat twice before returning to the bow of the boat, looking at the green mountains on both sides of the strait with great interest. Ruhua followed behind the two of them, saw the boat coming from the opposite side, and replied in a low voice, "Madam, the people standing on the bow of the boat in front are Lan Shiji and Lan Shichang of the Lan family, and it looks like they are coming for us." ”

Lan Yi followed the direction she pointed to, and saw two old men standing side by side on the boat coming from the opposite side, both dressed in Taoist robes and combed in a bun, standing against the wind, and the wide-sleeved Taoist robes moved with the wind, quite a bit of immortal bearing. Although they are all white-haired, one of the old men has sparse hair, only a small bun on his head, and his face is pale and bloodless.

The speed of the boat was not slow, and Lan Shiji, who was white-haired and childish-looking when he approached, stood in front of him with his right hand, and asked in a loud voice, "Poor Dao Lan Shiji, dare to ask if you are Mrs. Zhou?" ”

In the Great Zhou, not all of the Taoist priests who wore robes and combed their hair were monks, but those who called themselves "poor Taoists" must be monks. ”

Zhou Weiji walked out of the cabin, Ling Ruhua took Wen Xuan back, protected Lan Yi by his side, and looked down at the two old men of the Lan family. The two of them saluted Zhou Weiji again, raised his hand and gave out a jade plate, Zhou Weiji stretched out his hand to catch it, and then heard Lan Shiji say, "Lord Zhou, Mrs. Zhou, your kindness to the Lan family, the Lan family will remember it, and this jade plate will be given to Mrs. Zhou." ”

Zhou Weiji frowned slightly and wanted to throw it back, not wanting to have anything to do with the Lan family anymore, Lan Shi often saw what he meant, and said directly, "Although this card is not big, it can drive away evil spirits and avoid disasters, and prevent others from devouring witches." ”

Zhou Weiji listened to the slight movement, and heard that the Lan family had three jade plates, one was taken to the capital by Lei Jin on Lan Ruhai's body, and the other was given to the current saint, is this another piece, doesn't it mean that it was lost? This card is indeed a good thing, especially for Lan Yi, and it is a good thing to stay.

However, he was still unhappy in his heart, the Lan family came to give the jade plate with such fanfare, was it afraid that others would not know?

Lan Yi looked at Lan Shichang, saw the obscurity in his pale face, and thought that he had been underground by Lan Ruguan for many years, and maybe he knew something that others didn't know, and his heart was slightly uneasy. Turned around and looked at the jade plate held by Zhou Weiji in his hand, although this jade card was a good thing, it brought her no good impression at all. She raised her eyes to look at Zhou Weiji, Zhou Weiji nodded slightly, and threw the jade plate back into Lan Shiji's hand, "This thing is precious, my husband and wife are blessed, and I am afraid that it will be damaged if I wear it, thank you for your kindness." ”

Lan Shiji was slightly stunned, nodded and put the jade plate into his sleeve, "Lord Zhou, looking at your face from the poor Dao, it seems that there is a disaster of blood and light, forget that adults cherish their lives, and you can't act rashly." ”

Since they didn't even accept the jade card, presumably the peace charm they gave away, these two people wouldn't want it, because Lan Shiji didn't raise it many times. The corners of Zhou Weiji's mouth hooked slightly, since he was on the battlefield, how could there be no bloody disaster, this old Lan family really has a bit of Taoism, "Zhou has written it down, thank you Daoist." ”

Lan Shiji looked at Lan Yi again, with a kind smile, "Mrs. Zhou, if you say goodbye here, you and I should have no chance to see each other again, and listen to the words of the poor Tao, if you want to be stable in this life, you can't wade far into the water." ”

Lan Yi nodded slightly and thanked him, Lan Shiji and Lan Shichang saluted again and left by boat. Back in the cabin, Lan Shichang's face was slightly gloomy, "This Mrs. Zhou, it's a little strange, no wonder Lan Ruhai will capture her for a soul, sixth brother, what do you think?" ”

Lan Shiji looked at the vast green mountains and green waters, and said quietly, "Whether she is strange or not has nothing to do with my Lan family." The most important thing at present is to save the lives of the whole family, third brother, the Lan family will be handed over to you and Junchen in the future, I will get up and go to the capital later. ”

Lan Yi followed Zhou Weiji back to the cabin, still thinking about what Lan Shiji said, "Master Fusheng once said that I can't step out of the Great Zhou Dynasty's land, and now Lan Shiji also said that I can't wade into the water, what the two of them said is the same thing, Wei Ji, this Lan Shiji may really have some ability."
