Li Qinzai's attitude towards the powerful and towards the common people is very different.

In front of the powerful, Li Qinzai's mouth has always been poisonous and cheap, and he is so angry that he doesn't dare to attack, because no one dares to play tricks with Li Qinzai.

But in front of ordinary people, Li Qinzai's attitude is humble and polite, like a spring breeze.

If the reincarnation technique is not strong, presumably Li Qinzai is no different from all ordinary people in the world, in front of them, what qualifications do they have to put on the shelf of the powerful?

The old man brought water, and Li Qinzai beckoned his subordinates to drink water, and sat down on the mossy stone steps.

The old man was warm and kind, and invited Li Qinzai to come into the house to sit, but Li Qinzai refused with a smile.

Holding a pottery bowl in one hand, Li Qinzai talked to the old man.

The old man is over 60 years old, and he used to be a government soldier, but he was later disarmed and returned to the field. His wife died early and he had two sons. One of the sons was a hereditary soldier, and he was in the Songmo Governor's Mansion, which was once the territory of the Turks, and later the Turks were destroyed, and the Tang Dynasty built the Songdesert Governor's Mansion on the northeast border.

The old man also has a son, stay at home to farm, serve the old man, three days ago Jingyang County Ya came to Sihu, his son was recruited, said to go to Puzhou Jianxing Palace.

Not only the old man's son was recruited, but almost half of the young and strong labor force in the village was recruited.

Therefore, after Li Qinzai entered the village, he only saw the old people, women and children, and almost did not see the young people.

"Is that true of all the nearby villages? Young people have been drafted?" Li Qinzai asked curiously.

The old man smiled: "Someone from the official came up, saying that he was ordered by the imperial court, who dares to disobey it? Fortunately, the officials are also reasonable and let us recruit labor after spring sowing, otherwise this year's harvest will be troublesome......

Li Qinzai's eyes flashed: "Last year's drought, how was your family's harvest?"

The old man sighed: "I can barely survive, but fortunately I have a son by my side, although the grain harvest is small, but he works for the landlord, and occasionally takes on some labor for the caravan to carry goods, and earns a few pennies in subsidies, otherwise our family will starve to death."

"Our Jingyang is not far from Chang'an, no matter how bad the year is, the government will not sit idly by, otherwise it will hurt the face of the Son of Heaven, I heard that there are really people in the north who are starving to death, alas!" The old man shook his head and sighed.

Li Qinzai comforted: "This year seems to be a good year with good weather and rain, and your family will definitely have a good harvest."

The old man smiled, and his cloudy eyes flashed with hope: "Yes, it is indeed a good year, I hope there will be no more natural disasters in the middle of the year, the old man still plans to save some food and go to the county seat to change some cloth, our family has not made new clothes for several years......

Li Qinzai raised his eyes to look at the verdant wheat field and said, "Your family doesn't have a strong laborer, what should you do with the work in the field?"

The old man puffed up his chest and said, "I can still do it, although it is slower than the young descendants, but it is more stable than them, and almost all the rest of the village are old people and children, we can't count on others, let's do it ourselves."

Li Qinzai sighed: "If you build the palace, you won't be able to come back for a year and a half, and I'm afraid that next year's spring sowing will be delayed......

The old man sighed and said, "Do your best, who asked the official to issue any requisition order, I heard that the Son of Heaven is going to Mount Tai to seal Zen, this descendant, what is "Feng Zen"?"

"It is the ritual of sacrificing heaven and earth, and the pomp is very large, and the Son of Heaven prays to heaven on behalf of the people of Li."

The old man hurriedly said, "Sacrifice, that's a big deal, don't dare to delay."

As he spoke, the old man reverently arched his hand towards the sky.

Li Qinzai said with a smile: "The Son of Heaven sacrifices to heaven and earth, and your son is cultivating pomp, so the work in the field will be hard for you."

The old man wanted to speak and stopped, then sighed and said, "Sacrifice is a big deal, and the old man doesn't dare to be disrespectful to heaven and earth, but if he says something taboo, it would be better if it was two years late."

"Last year's drought, many people in the Zhuangzi almost didn't survive, many families borrowed a lot of money and grain from the landlords, this year to repay the debt, finally looking forward to a good year, the labor in the Zhuangzi has been requisitioned, it will definitely affect the harvest......

As he spoke, the old man became terrified again: "It's not that the old man doesn't approve of the sacrifice, and he doesn't dare to disrespect God, it's just ...... Alas, it's good to take it slowly."

Seeing that Li Qinzai was silent, the old man got up and refilled another pot of water.

Li Qinzai put down the pottery bowl, said goodbye to the old man with a smile, and before leaving, Liu Asi quietly put aside more than a dozen coins and pressed them under the pottery pot.

Walking out of the old man's humble house, Li Qinzai led his subordinates around the village again, chatting with the villagers under the usual pretext of begging for water and drinking.

In the evening, Li Qinzai finally left Zhuangzi and rushed towards Chang'an City.

It was late at night when he returned to the house, and Li Qinzai went back to the backyard and fell asleep.

Early the next morning, Li Qinzai led his troops out of the city again, this time to Lantian County.

On the third and fourth days, I walked around the villages in Guanzhong every day and chatted with the villagers.

That night, on the way back to Chang'an City, Liu Asi finally couldn't help it.

"Fifth Young Lang, the villain knows that you don't agree with the Son of Heaven's sealing of Zen, but can't you directly advise the Son of Heaven? It's been so hard for you to visit the villages every day."

Li Qinzai sighed, "Do you think that if I give advice to the Son of Heaven, he will listen?"

Liu Asi scratched his head: "Then I don't know, but what are you visiting the village for every day?"

Li Qinzai said lightly: "Some things must be seen and heard with your own eyes before you are qualified to speak with your head held high. I want to hear the truest voices of the people and see the truest sufferings of the people, which cannot be seen in the recitals of the officials."

Liu Ah Si didn't seem to understand, so he had to say, "Okay, the villain is a vulgar martial artist who doesn't understand the affairs of the dynasty and state, where the fifth young man goes, our brothers will follow."

Li Qinzai shook his head and said, "I'll go back to Ganjingzhuang tomorrow."

…………

Early the next morning, Li Qinzai led his subordinates back to Ganjingzhuang.

After entering the Zhuangzi, he did not go back to the other courtyard, but came to the school by himself.

It was noon, the students were about to eat, and Li Qinzai sat alone in the classroom, staring out the window at the verdant woods.

After a long time, the students came back to hear loud laughter outside the classroom.

Li Qinzai still sat in the classroom without moving, and the first to enter the door was Li Sujie, who just stepped through the door and found Li Qinzai, who had been missing for several days, Li Sujie said happily: "Mr. is back."

After saying that, he bowed and saluted.

The little bastards behind him also saluted.

Li Qinzai raised his eyes, stared at Li Sujie and said, "Which foot did you walk into the door just now?"

Li Sujie was stunned: "Uh, it seems to be the left foot......

"What a mortal sin! Come on, drag them out and whip them fifty times!"

Li Sujie was shocked: "Sir, in the past, you had a more or less reasonable reason for whipping, but this time the reason is so perfunctory?"

Li Qinzai suddenly laughed, and then lowered his face and said, "That's it, scare you, Mr. is in a bad mood today, and it doesn't please look at anyone, you'd better not mess with me."

When the little bastards heard this, they were immediately silent.
