The officials were carrying grain, and Meng Changqing was inspecting.

Uncle and Sun Xiang didn't cheat her, and they all gave her the new millet this year.

Although the harvest has been good in the past two years, the people have paid the grain, how much food and clothing can they have? Meng Changqing held the millet poured out of the grain finder in his hand, and after eating these grains, he had to build the city wall.

Meng Changqing was very sure that the petition would be approved, because he was an emperor, and he felt that this deal was a good deal.

One hundred stone of grain, seven wagons, two classes of officials on both sides.

Meng Changqing and Bafang walked in front, and Chu Mufeng followed in the last with the other three Imperial Forest Soldiers.

When the horses pulled the grain, they walked slowly, and Meng Changqing was also afraid that someone would rob him on the road, so he hurried late at night, and he didn't dare to feel sleepy.

The convoy arrived at the east gate of Liangzhou City, and after the first round of inspection, the officers and soldiers guarding the city not only had to check Meng Changqing's official seal, the token of Li Ting, the head catcher, and the prefect's signature, but also weighed each stone of grain to confirm the number on the signature.

Meng Changqing sent some cakes to the busy officers and soldiers, "I'm tired of you being busy late at night." ”

"What did the adults say?" The officers and soldiers took the cake, "It's our business, and I want to ask the adults not to think that we are cumbersome and delay your time." ”

"Soldier head, weigh it, the number is right."

"Why don't you move the adults to the car."

When the grain was re-tied and Meng Changqing got on the horse, he noticed that there was something white on the horse's hair.

She rubbed it with her hand, and her fingertips turned into water, "Is it snowing?" ”

The people around looked up, "It's snowing." ”

The soldier craned his shoulders, "I said that it was very cold today, and it was going to snow, and I don't know how long it will snow." ”

Meng Changqing covered his face with a scarf, leaving only a slit in his eyes to look at the road, "What time is it?" ”

The head of the soldier deliberately went to the room on duty to see the drip back and forth to her, "Master Meng, the second watch has passed, and it is now three o'clock." ”

It's three o'clock, about eleven o'clock in the evening.

You have to hurry, and I don't know if the snow is big or small, and if it is too big to cover the road, there is a risk of getting stuck in the car.

Fortunately, from Liangzhou City to the city wall of Yangmen County, the snow has not fallen heavily, and only a thin layer of snow has accumulated on the road.

Although I knew that snow waited for no one, and we had to go back before the snow covered the road, we still had to do the inspection that should be done.

The same process was checked again by the officers and soldiers of Yangmen County.

This matter cannot be saved, after all, it is a border county.

Meng Changqing asked the officers and soldiers guarding the gate in Yangmen County to borrow three shovels, but they were afraid that when the snow fell heavily, they would have nothing to do on the road.

Sure enough, out of the city wall of Yangmen County, the snow became heavier and heavier, and the snow on the road became thicker and thicker.

In this case, it is difficult for people to walk, and horses are not willing to walk.

"What should I do?" Li Ting pulled the most irritable horse and shouted loudly to the front of the convoy: "Lord Meng, do you want to find a place to rest for a while?" ”

The oncoming wind and snow shattered Li Ting's words.

Meng Changqing stopped and looked around, but by coincidence, he came to the vicinity of the old city wall.

Meng Changqing rode to Li Ting's side, "You have to go forward, you can't rest here." Bother the brothers to push the cart and save some effort on the horse. ”

The horse is a humane animal, and knowing that someone is helping to work together, it stops losing its temper and honestly pulls the cart forward.

Further on, when the snow was deep, he used the shovel borrowed by Meng Changqing.

Shovel some of the snow off the road so that the wagons can pass.

Wang Xun has never walked such a difficult road in his life, not to mention that the wind and snow are like monsters, and he has to shovel snow all the way to open the way for the carriage.

I don't know how long they walked in the snow, but finally they saw the city wall of Weishan County and saw the fire on the flat ground.

It's just that before this breath is released, the vigilant person hears the wind and snow, mixed with unquiet sounds.

"Someone took advantage of the night to rob the grain." Meng Changqing said loudly: "Everyone extinguish the torches, stick to the grain station, and once there is movement in the grain car, directly take a knife and cut it up." ”

After Meng Changqing gave the order, he rode his horse and hurried to the camp.

Xi Bei recognized the sound of horses' hooves, "It seems that Changqing has returned." ”

Meng Changqing followed the voice and rushed over and saw her master and the Meng family, who were protecting her mother and mother in the middle.

"Master! Mother! Who is it? ”

"It's a bandit." Xi Bei said, "Fortunately, we were on guard day and night, so we didn't let them get into the loophole." Changqing, you also came down and stood in the middle, for fear that there would be mountain bandits hiding in the cave, and Captain Yang took someone to check. ”

Meng Changqing was obedient and decisively got off the horse and got into the middle of the crowd.

"Evergreen." Liang Jiu grabbed her arm, "I'm scared to death, I'm really afraid that you have an accident on the road." ”

Xi Bei: "Auntie, don't worry, as long as Changqing is on a horse, no one in Liang Country can catch up with him." ”

"Did the trip go well?" Wen asked.

"Everything is going well, mother rest assured."

At this time, the snow did not stop, but the wind subsided.

Meng Changqing heard the voice of Zuo Datou, "Captain, there are no Tibetans in all the pits, and there are not many people among the people." ”

"Okay, then it's all here." Yang Zheng said sharply: "Take care of the people, and wait for the adults to come back and deal with them." ”

"Captain Yang!" Meng Changqing walked towards him, "I'm back." ”

"Meng Gongzi." Yang Zheng held the knife and explained the situation to Meng Changqing, "Look at these people, there are twenty-one in total, they are here to rob us, and the soldiers guarding look at the direction they are coming from, they should have come down from the mountain." ”

"Are there any casualties among our men?" Meng Changqing asked.

Yang Zheng lifted the knife in his hand, "We are not easy to mess with, they are not as many as us, and they do not have decent weapons in their hands, they are not our opponents at all, and the people are not injured because of this." ”

"It's fine, it's just a stone of grain spilled on the ground, and it can still be eaten when it is swept up."

Meng Changqing nodded, "Okay." She bowed down to thank the soldiers and the Imperial Forest Army with swords, "Thank you big brothers for keeping my family safe and the people of Liangzhou safe." ”

Zhou Qiwen put away his sword and replied, "Master Meng doesn't have to be polite. ”

"Meng Gongzi." Yang Zheng asked: "What should we do with these people?" ”

Meng Changqing looked at the people who were tied by ropes and could only sit on their knees, "You came down from the mountain, right?" ”

"Dog officer!" Someone looked up at Meng Changqing and scolded: "It's wrong for us to find something for the winter!" You, the lackey of the court, have forced us to live. ”

"Okay, just know where you're from." Meng Changqing turned his head and said to Yang Zheng, "I'm tired of Captain Yang, find a few brothers who are quick and ruthless, and cut down all these people." ”

Yang Zheng was taken aback, "All cut?" ”

"Yes, trouble the brothers to dig a pit and bury it after they finish cutting."

"Dog officer! You don't have to die well! When the bound man heard that he could not live, he immediately remembered something and cursed something.

Someone was smart enough to know that it was useless to just scold Meng Changqing, and scolded the people standing in the detachment next to him, "You are willing to be driven by this dog official!" Don't you know how to move! ”

"How embarrassed are you to expect them to move!" Meng Changqing scolded back in a higher voice, "What you want to rob them of the food for the winter, is their chance to live, and expect them to help you, dream!" ”
