Chapter 166: Speaking counts
In Anzhou, the boundaries of Zhao County are different from other places, and they live alone in the mountains.
In other words, it has no neighboring counties around it.
Even if you start from Zhao County and go to Anzhou, which is the closest to you, it takes a whole hour to take a carriage.
As soon as the county gate of Zhao County was closed, it was basically a state of isolation, and the adults behind them chose this place in Zhao County, not only because Jia An was easy to handle, but also because of the tightness of Zhao County.
"Zhao County's state, has no one found out?" Dongzhu followed the little master, a little puzzled.
In her eyes, the little master knows a lot.
Chu Zhaozhao thought for a while, "There is such an incident in the history books, it is said that there was a plague in a place, and the officials of that place fled for their lives early, and they didn't even dare to report it, for fear that the emperor would take their own lives, so after such a delay, nine out of ten people died of illness, and no one in the court knew about it." ”
"And then?" Dongzhu was taken aback.
"Later, it was the imperial court that sent people to collect taxes and grain, only to find that this place had almost become an empty city." Chu Zhaozhao had a wry smile on the corner of his mouth.
Dasheng is not big, but it is not small, and it is not very conspicuous among the surrounding countries.
What she said was what happened in the Great Yuan Kingdom on this land before the founding of the Great Sheng Kingdom.
This is outrageous, but it is indeed written down word by word in the history books.
"Isn't this just like the time of the first emperor, when many homeless people arrived in the capital, everyone knew that there was ......a flood in that place," Dongzhu said softly.
Chu Zhaozhao nodded.
Although she hadn't experienced what Dongzhu said, she knew what it was.
A small county below Qingzhou, surrounded by a river dam, has not been flooded for many years, so local officials have embezzled the money allocated by the imperial court to repair the dam.
But it just so happened that in the year when they embezzled money, there was a great flood.
On that occasion, the statistics in the history books alone recorded that thousands of people died and hundreds of people were displaced......
The local officials were dumbfounded and did not dare to report it, thinking that they would quietly provide disaster relief, but they did not expect that the local people almost rebelled.
Someone came to the capital along the official road, and then someone hurriedly reported to the first emperor.
The first emperor was furious at that time, and in just half a month, more than a dozen officials from top to bottom lost their heads.
"This Zhao County still knows something, at least he knows how to use a god to appease the people, and he also knows how to buy people's hearts with silver." Chu Zhaozhao's face was expressionless.
Not long after the lord of Leshu went out, he hurried back with a few women.
When they entered the door, they caressed their chests and gasped!
"I'm a good girl, suddenly there are a lot of people from the yamen on the street, and there are some people in black, so cruel!" A chubby woman was frightened.
Chu Zhaozhao was also on the first floor at this time, and she thought about it and planned to go outside to take a look.
As soon as she took a few steps, a chubby hand pulled her back.
"Oh, little girl, don't go out, the group of people outside, when they see someone, they will gesture to a portrait, and if they don't obey, they will be killed directly." A woman next to her hurriedly frightened her.
"Kill?" Chu Zhaozhao seemed to be taken aback.
Lord Leshu hurriedly came over, hugged Xiao Zhaozhao in his arms, and said to everyone, "Everyone, this is my daughter." ”
"Then you'll have to keep an eye on her, we don't know what's going on out there......" the woman continued.
Chu Zhaozhao glanced at Dong Zhu, and Dong Zhu turned to leave.
The old shopkeeper of the boiling building came over on purpose, and he wanted to close the door, but halfway through the door, it was blocked by a booted foot that rushed in.
"Wait!" The man's scolding voice came in.
Xu Zhengbai was not here at this time, and the shopkeeper subconsciously looked at Chu Zhaozhao next to him, and he even felt that this little girl should have more weight when she spoke.
Chu Zhaozhao motioned for him to wait, and then looked at Lord Leshu, "Mother, you go and call your grandfather to come over." ”
Grandfather?
Lord Leshu was only a little confused, and he immediately came to his senses.
My grandfather is an old man, so the only person worthy of the word "old" here is Master Zhaozhao!
"Okay." Lord Leshu responded while pulling out his legs and running in the direction of the backyard.
At this moment, the shopkeeper couldn't stand it anymore, Chu Zhaozhao stepped forward and put his hand against the door, "You go to the back first." ”
The shopkeeper hesitated and was stunned, and Chu Zhaozhao directly reached out and pushed him aside.
The moment the door was opened, a heavy slap came with the wind, but it was empty.
"Are you deaf or blind, and you don't hear our ......," said the leading official angrily.
He slapped him in the air, and there was a little more disbelief in his eyes.
When I looked down, it was a little girl with a fleshy face.
The leading official didn't think about it, so he directly raised his foot and came over at Chu Zhaozhao.
Chu Zhaozhao's pretended smiling face was so stiff on his face, he couldn't help but curse in his heart, and subconsciously raised his hand to hug his feet.
In the "action" that looked not very sensitive, Chu Zhaozhao split a fork for him.
"Ahh A scream rang out from the mouth of the leading officer.
Chu Zhaozhao glanced in the direction of the backyard out of the corner of his eye, then cautiously took a few steps back, revealing a helpless look, and cried with a wow.
Martial God Gongzi wanted to be slow, but the Lord of Coke Shu didn't let go at all.
She grabbed one of the fingers of the Martial God Gong and forced it in, and as soon as she came in from behind, she heard the loud cry of her little apprentice.
And...... The painful appearance of several officials covering their ears.
"Such a big child, still use this trick." Martial God Gong plucked out his ears, he stepped forward quickly, and directly closed the mouth of the little apprentice.
Chu Zhaozhao almost bit his tongue!
"Grandfather, they're going to beat me!" Chu Zhaozhao put his arms around him and said in a low voice, "Give Master a chance to act, if Master behaves well in the past few days, I will intercede with my mother-in-law." ”
The hand that the Martial God Gong was about to put up fell so naturally.
"Words count." Martial God Gong whispered.
After getting the affirmation of the little apprentice, he walked with his hands behind his back, and did not forget to stomp on the hand of the person lying on the bed.
Another scream.
Martial God Gong turned a deaf ear, he casually carried a stool and sat down.
"Come on, come on, let's talk, who did it to the old man's little apprentice just now?"
Chu Zhaozhao's little face was deflated, and she was about to cry when she saw it, she ran over in small steps and grabbed the ears of the people on the ground fiercely.
The little girl was right, "Master, it's him, it's him, he doesn't think the little girl is cute at all!" ”
A little girl, he can even move his feet!
Give him two big arms to tease!
