Chapter 1376: The People Thank You
After transmitting the general situation of Longxi to Xianyang by telegram, Wang Ben and Zhang Han had a few words.
"Goo-Goo......
Just as they were blushing and their necks were thick in the arguing, the stomachs of the two old fellows screamed uncontrollably.
"Old Zhang! Are you hungry? ”
Wang Ben raised his eyebrows and asked suspiciously.
"Humph! It's like you're not hungry! ”
Zhang Han gave him a blank look.
"Hungry! It's been an afternoon, can you not be hungry? It's a good table of dishes, but Shi Jianduo's guy added ingredients, I can only watch it, I can't eat it......! ”
Wang Ben flattened his mouth, reached into his arms and pretended to take a handful, "Alas! I don't have the energy to prepare for a rainy day, and I didn't bring a few buns out! ”
"Hey...... Is that......! ”
Zhang Han was quite proud at first, but after turning his head and seeing Wang Ben's strange smile, he immediately thought of the spring ploughing, and immediately raised his leg and beckoned to Wang Ben's ass, "Okay, you old Wang, you can be regarded as knowing something, it's not over in your hands, and you actually took it to Longxi!" ”
"Hahaha......!"
Wang Ben was agile and jumped out of the distance in one step, "What I said is the truth!" If there are fifteen big buns at this time, will our brothers still be hungry? ”
"Humph! Although there are no buns, let the soldiers bury the pot and make rice! ”
It must not be so easy to hit Wang Ben, and after Zhang Han rolled his eyes twice, he didn't do it, and immediately ordered the soldiers to rebel.
His stomach was already hungry, and in order to find out what happened in Longxi, he endured it until now, and he felt that his chest was close to his back!
Taking advantage of the time to cook, Wang Ben and Zhang Han divided the soldiers into twenty-one teams according to the detailed map of Longxi and went to each county to investigate the situation, while they stayed in the city and waited for His Majesty's arrival!
Dinner is simple rice and vegetables.
Although it is not as rich as Shi Jianduo's preparation, you can eat with peace of mind, and you won't put your life on the line!
After eating and drinking, Zhang Han and Wang Ben were about to go to rest, when a noisy sound suddenly came from outside the mansion.
"What's going on?"
"It seems that there are a lot of people from outside the government, and their steps are very messy!"
The two of them pricked up their ears and judged.
"Squeak ......"
Immediately afterwards, the gate of the palace was opened, and a group of people poured in, and before Wang Ben and Zhang Han could come forward, they knelt in the courtyard.
The two of them didn't know why, so they went out to check the situation.
"Thank you two for saving your life!"
"Two Shangshu, why are you here? If we don't come again, I'm afraid we won't live long! ”
"Lord Shangshu, we must uphold justice for our Longxi, we will all be forced to death by those corrupt officials ......!"
After the soldiers introduced the identities of Wang Ben and Zhang Han, the people kneeling on the ground began to bow down one after another, crying bitterly.
"This ...... What does this mean? ”
Zhang Han was also stunned when he saw this.
He ordered them to explain to the people everything that happened in the palace, so as not to misunderstand the people, but he didn't let him bring the people over!
"Lord Hui Shangshu, we have made great efforts to gather the people and explain these things to the people, and after the people hear it, they will come and thank them for everything, and we can't stop it!"
The soldier said with a bitter face.
"I see!"
Knowing the general situation, Zhang Han nodded clearly.
"Don't blame these young soldiers, they won't let us come, but we have to thank you! If it weren't for the two Shangshu lords, we would have been tortured to death by those corrupt officials sooner or later! ”
Among the people kneeling in the courtyard, an old man said in an excited and trembling voice.
"You...... You are...... You're the old man we met on the street today, right? ”
Due to the lack of light at night and the distance was too far, Zhang Han looked at him and felt familiar, and he thought for a while before remembering.
"That's right! It's old decay! ”
The old man nodded sheepishly.
"Yo? Isn't that a good ear? Why don't you pretend you can't hear it in the afternoon? ”
When Wang Ben saw that he reacted so quickly, he immediately became sarcastic.
"Alas! The old decay is also out of helplessness......! ”
The old man sighed deeply and said with an embarrassed face: "No way, not only are the surrounding vendors dressed up by the officials, but even the people who shuttle back and forth on the street are also mixed with the officials!" When you open your mouth to ask about the disaster, how dare you answer? I can only pretend to be deaf and dumb, wave my hand and leave! ”
"Don't blame my father for the two Shangshu adults, he really can't help it, and when he got home, he happily told us that someone came to inquire about the disaster in Longxi, and we may be saved! At that time, we didn't believe it, and even if someone came to inquire, it was possible that they were just passing by, and they might not be able to manage it! I didn't expect to be really said by my father, and after nightfall, a soldier came to knock on the door and told us that we really wanted to! ”
A middle-aged man beside the old man hurriedly gave up his hand and helped the old man say good things.
"You're his son?"
From his words, it can be heard that the identities of the two are father and son.
"That's right! Caomin's surname is Wang, the second in the family, everyone usually calls me Wang Er! It is an ordinary farmer in this Longxi City, who makes a living from farming......! ”
The man briefly introduced himself, and then continued: "Since we have Huangsha in Longxi, our county guard has been like a different person, tearing off the mask of kindness from the past, revealing his true nature! Send someone to watch us, and you will be beaten at every turn! Children are afraid to go out, and they can't even go to school! ”
"Yes! Until the day of acting on the street, we don't even dare to go out, once we go out, we will be beaten, and we don't know if we can come back! ”
"That's right! During this period, if there is nothing to eat at home, you can only endure it! Not to mention when you are sick, no one cares at all! ”
"In the past, the officials in the county were not good, but it didn't end there, and I don't know what happened now......
With Wang Er opening his mouth, the people complained about these ridiculous things done by the county guard, the county guard, and the county lieutenant in Longxi, and Wang Ben and Zhang Han were worried for a while.
"Two Shangshu, you must catch the county guards, they are too bad, you must not let them harm other people again!"
Finally, the old man he met on the street bowed his hand and prayed sincerely.
"I believe that the soldiers have already explained, these things in Longxi were well concealed by Wang Zhiming by various means, and the imperial court just learned the news yesterday, and immediately sent the two of us here! In less than two days, His Majesty will also be coming, and he will definitely bring Wang Zhiming and others to justice, and never let go of any bad guys! ”
Wang Ben raised his hand and assured the people in a high-pitched voice.
"Thank you, Lord Shangshu!"
The people were relieved and their faces were full of joy.
