049 Can't say it, is it hard to beat it?

The next progress is much faster, Lu Lechi and Hua Qing have traveled to two more counties, look at the map, and when these are distributed, it should be about the same.

It was really too long, and they had to hurry to the South China Sea.

After Lu Lechi finished exploring the patients who had gathered, he saw that the situation was already improving, and when he returned to Hua Qing, who was dispensing medicine, he saw that there were people in front of him.

Hua Qing was among them, so busy that she didn't even have time to catch her breath, and she was sweating profusely.

"So many people?" Lu Lechi walked over and picked up the medicine bag next to him to help, "It's not been three days in a row, how do you feel like there are more and more people?" ”

"Not really." Hua Qing replied with a sentence, and the medicine bag in her hand was almost snatched away, "Slow down, slow down, line up, everyone has it." ”

She shouted, wiped the sweat from her face, and then turned to Lu Lechi, "I don't think this town is too big, there are more people than the county seat, and I don't know if the medicine bag is enough." ”

"No......" Lu Lechi looked at the people in line, frowning slightly.

Without waiting for Hua Qing to ask another question, she walked towards a few of them who looked ragged and dusty.

The few people saw that Lu Orchestra Pit had arrived, and knelt on the ground with a "snap" and were about to kowtow to thank him.

Lu Lechi hurriedly helped them up, "A few, it doesn't look like they're from this town, right?" ”

"No, no, great benevolent people, we have driven dozens of miles from Linxian County, and the people at home are still waiting, and I don't know if it will be too late."

Their shoes were also torn, their faces were dry and had not been washed for a few days, and it seemed that the journey was very busy.

"Linxian? Why bother traveling so far, there should be a place for medicine in your county, right? ”

"Alas, our ......" said the men, tears and snot rushed out together, and they knelt on the ground and refused to get up, "good man, you Bodhisattva has the ability to reach heaven, help us again!" ”

"Something to say."

"Our county official, he is greedy for money and careless for people's lives!"

The county seat where these people are located is the first one Lu Lechi and Hua Qing went to, and Lu Lechi still remembers that the county official is the best person to talk here.

arranged everything and sent them away, but who knew that after leaving, the county official actually took down all the medicinal materials and took them for himself.

Ignoring the people below, they only sell it to the rich people in the county at a high price under the guise of making a profit.

"How can there be such a thing?"

"Isn't it, a pack of medicine sells for several taels, how can we ordinary people afford this money. All those medicines were bought by rich people, and all the money went into the pocket of the county magistrate alone, and even if the more medicine was thrown into the river, it would not be distributed. We couldn't help it, and finally heard that there was a nearby county town that was also dispensing medicine, so we hurried over to the mountain road. It's just that it's a long way, and some family members wait and wait and leave. ”

"How can it be!"

Lu Lechi, who has always been docile, couldn't help but scold, the county official looked like he was for the country and the people, but he didn't expect to be able to do such a dirty thing.

Zhuxin always said that people's hearts are unpredictable, so let them be more vigilant, but blame the two of them for being too easy to trust others.

Lu Lechi didn't dare to delay longer, the disaster in the towns on this side of the South China Sea affected the whole body, and they couldn't easily let go of a single level.

He had to take Hua Qing back to the first county seat.

Sure enough, as the victims said, this place is still the same as when they left, and there is no improvement in the slightest.

The difference is that there are many people who kneel at the gate of the county yamen and ask for their lives, but the yamen is all closed and disappears, and when there is a fierce trouble, there are also officials who come out with sticks to drive people out.

Rao is good-tempered Lu Lechi, and his face was full of anger, and he flew in from the top of the yamen with a boost of anger.

Who wanted to get it, the county official was still happily counting the greedy silver taels.

Seeing Lu Le Chi and Hua Qing angrily breaking in, a trace of fear flashed in his eyes, but he quickly covered it up.

"You ...... How did it come? ”

"If you don't do something wrong, are you still afraid that we will come?" Lu Lechi hurriedly took a few steps forward, stretched out his hand and wanted to grab his collar, but after years of cultivation, he still shook his hand, "Being an official should have asked for the people's life, and you just didn't do anything." Now that our medicinal materials and methods have been sent to the door, you still have to make profits from them, and regard the lives of the people as grass mustard! Aren't you afraid of a troubled conscience? ”

As soon as Lu Lechi remembered that he had come all the way, there were corpses all over the road, and the people were struggling for life and death, and then he felt extremely disgusted when he saw the corrupt official in front of him holding a box of silver with a flowering face.

However, the county magistrate had no remorse at all. Seeing that he was exposed, he simply broke the jar and broke it, and his neck was raised.

"What did you say, it's not that the official didn't treat them, but this court fortification also costs money, so it's reasonable, what's wrong with the official letting them take out medicine and buy medicine? Could it be that you don't spend money to see a doctor? ”

"But this medicinal material is brought by us, and there is no need for the imperial court to procure it. Besides, the disaster in the south is serious, and the imperial court should have allocated disaster relief money, but after so long, I don't see that the silver has been spent where it should be spent. ”

Lu Lechi was in a hurry, but the county official was very leisurely and spread his hands.

"Yes, yes, you brought the herbs. But you also said that you let the official take care of it, didn't you? I also used the disaster relief money, and I didn't spend money to repair the shed and hire manpower. As soon as this disaster comes, all the people who pay taxes will be gone, and they will have to be subsidized. I said great good people, you are not an official, and you don't understand the hard work of being an official. What can be seen and what is not seen is where money is spent, and I ...... It is also for the sake of the court. ”

"You!"

Lu Lechi, a simple boy raised in the Spirit Palace, can say that the verbal kung fu can be said to be a county official who has been in the officialdom for many years, and it can be said that he is really dead.

Within two sentences, Lu Lechi was speechless by him.

Obviously, every word he made was wrong, but when they were put together, he didn't know where to start.

"Oh, senior brother, what else is there to preach with this kind of person!"

Hua Qing listened to these words back and forth, her head was about to twist into a ball, and she simply chose the easiest way.

Can't say it, can't it be beaten?

The long sword in her hand was drawn, and in the blink of an eye, she reached the county official, "So you can say that, or go down to the underworld and talk to the king of Hades?" Or did I cut out your tongue, and it saved you a headache for me. ”

"You ......" The county official saw their ability for the first time, and the speed of the instantaneous movement finally made him feel scared, but he still moved his neck stiffly, "Do you know that if you murder the court official, you will lose your head!" ”
