The sky was cloudy and gray, and it was so heavy that it almost pressed to the ground, and there was a verdant forest on the vast land, through which a yellow official road opened up by the human race passed.

On the official road, Qiu Yu rode horses and galloped all the way, and after entering the boundary of Huxiang, there was only one day of rain for a total of three days, and it was still light rain.

Qiu Yu felt that this little rain would not cause a big flood to flood the four counties.

When passing through a county town, there was a river nearby, so Qiu Yu avoided his companions and rode a horse alone to take a look, and found that the water was turbulent, and the water level was indeed higher than in previous years, but it was not enough to flood four counties.

Seeing this, it has been nine years, and Qiu Yu understands everything about what kind of virtue Qiu Yu is in this era.

He patted his thigh and was very distressed: "Those who do these things are evil." ”

Someone advised him behind his back: "Big man, Lao Dao just wants to send you back to Young Master Sun of the Lu family safely, don't mess around, just follow this group of refugees back." ”

It turned out that Yang Shengzi followed.

Qiu Yu looked back and smiled, he was originally gloomy and cold, but he was laughed at brightness that did not belong to this era: "That's not good, if there is man-made behind this flood, wouldn't the people in the four flooded counties be wronged?" It's miserable enough to be wronged, and I have to give them justice. ”

Yang Shengzi immediately had only one thought left in his mind: it's over, after this trip, he has to take off a layer of skin.

Yang Shengzi's head suddenly hurt, and he held his forehead: "Then you must pay attention to your own life, otherwise the consequences will be very serious." ”

Qiu Yu: "Huh? ”

Yang Shengzi: "Do you know Wang Da Fat?" ”

Qiu Yu: "Well, I heard Yingying mention it, he said that in order to avenge Wang Dapang, he was found by his family to secretly practice martial arts, but he was abolished by Lu Ah Gong. ”

Yang Shengzi sneered: "Then you must not know that Lu Ying's martial arts were abolished and he didn't give up, so he just took advantage of the time when Lu Fang went out to run the boat, and used the power of the Lu family to squeeze the Wang family's business on the island, and forced Master Wang to hang himself before he stopped." ”

"If you throw your life away, I don't know how far he will retaliate before he stops, but if you don't kill dozens or hundreds of people, this matter will definitely not be over, and your life is very precious now!"

Qiu Yu opened his mouth wide, to be honest, anyone who has watched "History of Yu" has a deep understanding of Qin Zhanying's strong sense of revenge, but he didn't expect Ying Ying to be like this when she was a child, and he didn't expect that one day he could also become the switch to start Ying Ying's "killing mode".

"History of Yu" records, when Qin Zhanying conquered the Northern Meng, the Northern Mengjie was defeated and retreated, and when retreating, a prince burned a city because of anger in his heart, and later the prince was captured alive by Qin Zhanying, in front of the Northern Mengying army, he was slashed with a thousand knives, and trampled his corpse with a war horse, and all the adult males of the royal family of the Northern Mengxi royal family and the prince's mother family were slaughtered cleanly.

The civil officials who wrote the history books used this as ironclad evidence of Qin Zhanying's cruelty and inhumanity, but if the people of the Yu Dynasty learned about this, I am afraid they would feel very relieved, because the emperor used his actions to declare the world, if the people have revenge and cannot be avenged, he will avenge them! If the people don't get justice, he gives them justice!

After that, no one dared to mess with the Yu caravan when they went abroad to do business, because as long as they had a mistake, the army of the Yu Dynasty would attack, using their death as an excuse to include the country behind those robbers into the territory, which was the most undeceivable era of the Yu Dynasty, and everyone got a full sense of security from the emperor.

It wasn't until Huaizong lost to the Goryeo people that the dignity of the country, which was never allowed to be humiliated, was dissipated.

Qiu Yu scratched her head: "How do I think I can do anything with Yingying's momentum?" Anyway, Yingying will avenge me. ”

Once Qiu Yu can't clean up those wicked people on his own, as long as he lies down in the coffin, Ying Ying will come over with a bloody wind and rain and send the scholars of the calamity Huxiang to the western sky, Qiu Yu does not doubt the lethality of this child at all...... Sect Master Yan relied on his strength to kill his father, and after provoking Yingying, he only had nine fingers left.

Yang Shengzi hurriedly dispelled his dangerous thoughts: "Don't mess around!" ”

Qiu Yu laughed, and her expression softened: "I won't mess around, I have to go back and watch Yingying grow up, I am older than him, I should protect him." ”

Anything is lost to seven-year-old Yingying, so doesn't he grow such a big man for nothing?

and

Qiu Yu was accompanied by the two long-term entourages of sesame mung beans, as well as the guards led by the black Coffey, and then Liu Ziyan and her family.

After entering the territory of Huxiang, everyone was divided into two teams, Liu Ziyan took Kefei and other Lu family guards to pick up people in the flooded four counties, and Qiu Yu went to Hengzhou Mansion to find Liu Qianshan, the governor of Huxiang.

He was originally prepared to go to the disaster area to see Liu Qianshan, and when he knew that this person was still in the official mansion, Qiu Yu sweated a little in his heart.

Nowadays, the provincial political system of the Yu Dynasty is the governor to supervise the local officials, the rule of law, the general responsibility of taxation and disaster relief, and when necessary, he can also command the local guards, have military power, and the political envoy is responsible for the specific implementation of the policy.

However, due to the fact that the main forces of the Son of Heaven are still contained by Northern Meng on the border, it is equivalent to Liu Qianshan's backers who can't help, so Liu Qianshan is not only bullied by the local forces, but also almost fails to perform the supervision function of the political envoys.

After all, as the governor of a province, let's not say take the lead in disaster relief, but go to the scene to boost morale and appease the people, right? You are the leader of this province!

Leaders have to set an example at critical moments! Ying Ying is only seven years old this year, and has always been frail and sickly, but he not only personally went to the countryside to inspect the people's conditions, when Ding'an County was ploughing in the spring, the villain also personally went to the field, wielding a small hoe to take the lead in plowing an acre of land!

Brother Ying's ploughing skills are not bad, and the onlookers have given praise - "Young Master Sun has the right actions except for his small strength, he is a capable person who works quickly, and the big pillar (two dogs, cat eggs, donkey cubs...... Learn from Young Master Sun! ”

And Liu Qianshan has been staying in the city to fight with other officials after the flood, the key is that he can't fight, and he is about to lose his official hat when he is bullied by the salt gang, so he is so anxious that his daughter goes to Qiongya Island to find the unfamiliar Lu family for help, and it is impossible to think about it.

Qiu Yu secretly complained that if this guy was an official under Brother Ying, he would have been kicked to the northeast to plant soybeans at this time.

Liu Qianshan met Qiu Yu, Uncle Oligomei still looked melancholy, and his eyebrows were more anxious than before: "The virtuous nephew came from afar, and she worked hard all the way, and the little girl took the liberty to ask to see the Lu family, but I didn't take care of her." ”

Qiu Yu replied: "Miss Liu is very bold, she is a heroine among women, and the little nephew admires her very much. ”

The nine-year-old girl can find someone who can help at this moment, which shows that Liu Ziyan's action is at least stronger than her father.

The two talked for a while, and Liu Qianshan expressed that he wanted his old family to send Qiu Yu away, and asked him to take Liu Ziyan and some of the family property away.

Abbreviation: Arrange the aftermath.

Qiu Yu was silent for a few seconds, but did not answer, but asked directly: "Governor Liu, the little nephew dares to ask, do you know the inside story of the dam breach in the four counties this time?" ”

Liu Qianshan's pupils shrank, and he slowly replied: "Young man, don't mention this matter when you are outside, otherwise the Salt Gang will not let you get out of Huxiang alive." ”

Liu Qianshan had long eyes, and naturally knew that this year's rain would not cause the levee to burst, so he sent his subordinates to investigate the internal situation, and after the death of several subordinates, he found a few villagers who witnessed the digging of the embankment as witnesses, and then the witnesses were gone, and he was also warned by the salt gang, either he eliminated the intention of investigating the matter and offered salt citations, otherwise he would die here with those victims.

Qiu Yu: "They're confident that they can let you die." ”

Liu Qianshan bowed: "Yes, the Salt Gang is a martial arts gang, they have good hands, this official is not surprised." ”

Qiu Yu: "So do you think there are other forces behind this matter?" ”

Liu Qianshan smiled bitterly: "Naturally, there is, the martial arts gang does not dare to attack the imperial court officials easily, otherwise when the border matter is over, Your Majesty will free up his hands, and he can let the army clean up these people, only ...... Another court official came to endorse it, saying that he could help cover up the matter and give the official a death from illness, so that they would have the confidence to do it. ”

It's okay, this brother's brain can still move.

Qiu Yu: "I don't know if adults have a way to break the situation?" ”

Liu Qianshan asked rhetorically: "How to break the situation, but the official moves, they can take the head of the official, the official has no other way than to stay in the official mansion, hold this position for the saint, and wait for the disaster relief food that may come in for the disaster victims in the four counties before he dies." ”

Qiu Yu: "......"

Speaking from the heart, Lord Liu, why don't you take advantage of Brother Ying's return

Small, first practice the technique of planting soybeans, and then prepare a few more warm clothes, which can be used later.

While sweating, Qiu Yu said the idea given by Lu Ying - let Luo Qianhu lead the troops to protect the grain, as long as the Salt Gang and the forces behind it saw that Governor Liu could still drive the military power, they would have some scruples.

Liu Qianshan: "This official has also thought about this method, but Luo Qianhu has always been cautious, unless there is a capable general like Lu Xuanlu, he will not move lightly." ”

The implication is that the military attache and me, a civilian official, are not in the same system, and I can't call him.

Qiu Yu: Nonsense, you will only shrink here when you step on a horse, and a soldier who fights out of a pile of dead people is also arrogant, and it is strange that he is willing to convince you to listen to you.

"The little nephew will go and persuade Luo Qianhu." Sure that this person was not useful, Qiu Yu got up and gave up his hand, ready to leave.

Liu Qianshan took two steps forward and saw the young man turn around.

Qiu Yu endured and endured, but still couldn't help but say: "Lord Liu, you are the governor, if you go to the disaster-stricken county at this time, even if you don't have food and medicinal materials in your hand, you can only verbally appease the people, and those people will not dare to touch you openly." ”

Liu Qianshan was stunned.

"I know of a person who did just that, and the predicament he faced was even more difficult than yours, but when he really came to the disaster area to put his posture out, the people looked at him, and those people didn't dare to touch him."

When the fifteen-year-old Qin Zhanying was the crown prince, the Yangtze River was overflowing, and in the face of the real flood, the young prince personally rode a horse, ran for three days and three nights to reach the embankment that could be flooded at any time, and personally pressed the formation to repair the embankment.

The wealthy families on both sides of the strait were waiting for an opportunity to raise the price of grain in the disaster, and Qin Zhanying, in the name of the prince, ordered the local health offices to cooperate with him to raid the homes of these wealthy families.

"If you want to be an official who can ask for the people's lives, you must have the courage to risk your life at a critical moment!"

Qiu Yu turned around and walked out of the governor's mansion, turned his head and went to the guard to find Luo Qianhu, and when he met, he came directly: "Luo Qianhu, good news, your chance to be promoted has come." ”

Luo Dahu originally saw his face because Qiu Yu took out the name card of the Lu family, and when he heard Qiu Yu say this, he laughed: "Oh? Let's listen and sit. ”

Qiu Yu sat down with a smile, first told the inside story of the Huxiang flood, and when he saw Luo Qianhu nodding, he knew that this was also an informed person, but as Liu Qianshan said, without Lu Xuan, Luo Dahu didn't want to offend the Cao family, so he kept squatting in the guard and didn't move.

Qiu Yu said: "Luo Qianhu is also a member of the army, so he naturally knows that he is a tough temper today, and he is never polite to Beimeng. ”

&n

bsp; Luo Dahu agreed: "Yes, since the current succession to the throne, anyone who has made military achievements in the war with the Northern Mengs can rise to the top, but unfortunately the thousand households have bad luck and have not been able to stay at the border all the time, continue to serve the emperor, and cut those Northern Mengtars." ”

Qiu Yu said again: "But who said that if you stay in Huxiang, you can't make military merits and do things for the emperor?" ”

He raised his hands and arched his hands towards the sky: "The so-called three armies have not moved the grain and grass first, since ancient times, the war is not only fought by the sergeants and brave soldiers, but also by the grain and grass weapons, Huxiang is the granary of the world, if Huxiang is stable, the grain and grass on the front line will be stable." ”

"But now that there is a flood in Huxiang, not only can he not send military food to the front line, but he also needs the imperial court to send disaster relief food upside down, oops, the saint must be troubled in his heart, and he has no good impression of the culprit." Qiu Yu shook her head and sighed, with a worried expression for the saint.

Luo Dahu's expression moved: "Yes, the Holy Lord will definitely know about the affairs of this place." ”

The reason is also very simple, Qiu Yu has the Lu family's post in his hand, he can come over and say that he knows about it, then Lord Lu Xuan and Lord Lu will also know, Lord Lu knows, and the emperor will know.

So Huxiang can't hide these things from the emperor.

Seeing that he came back to his senses, Qiu Yu said with a smile: "Luo Qianhu is a fierce general at the border, and his loyalty to the emperor is naturally a lesson from heaven and earth, but if the emperor wants to know your loyalty, you need to make some achievements." ”

Qiu Yu didn't say that he helped Liu Qianshan fight the Cao family and the Yan Gang, after all, Qiu Yu and Liu Qianshan could know that this person was a little bit of a dish, and Liu Qianshan was easy to be unlucky when he stood in line during the political struggle, Luo Dahu definitely didn't do this kind of stupid thing that would pit himself in, but he had a thousand people under his hands, and it was always okay to help escort the disaster relief food, right?

Luo Dahu thought to himself, yes, he didn't mix with Liu

Qianshan and the Cao family's fighting methods, but it is human nature for him to work hard for promotion.

He didn't believe that the Cao family really dared to kill him, after all, he was Lu Xuan's old subordinate, it was better to say that if he was really injured because of escorting disaster relief food, then the saint would definitely remember him, as long as he didn't die, he would be able to leave a name in the imperial party from now on, and he would be reused just around the corner!

He coughed: "The virtuous nephew is really a young talent, and what he said is quite reasonable. ”

On the second day, Luo Qianhu personally led people to the location of the Salt Gang, and asked them to hand over the relief grain.

Under Qiu Yu's encouragement and protection, Luo Qianhu began to take more than 1,000 soldiers and the Salt Gang to grab grain, and in order to make the credit greater, he also led people to repair the embankment.

The opening of the embankment was not big, and the water flow was not as urgent as before, so Luo Qianhu tied a rope to his body, and personally jumped into the water with sandbags on his back to block the breach.

When he did this, he also moved his heart, and deliberately asked his soldiers to set up the soup kitchen near the embankment, so the scene where he led the soldiers to jump into the river was seen by at least thousands of victims!

Let's take a look! How loyal and brave these Luo Qianhu are and love the people!

Qiu Yu covered his face, or how to say not to underestimate the IQ of the ancients? He just nodded at Luo Qianhu, and Luo Qianhu worked so hard to get promoted and make a fortune.

Sesame was a little worried: "It's too close to the break, so there won't be an accident, right?" ”

Mung Bean said, "If the breach is bigger, something will happen, but I don't think the current is so big that unless there is a rainstorm right away." ”

Qiu Yu had compassion in his eyes: "Yes, Luo Qianhu is also gambling on luck, gambling with his own life and the people along the coast." ”

To put it bluntly, Luo Qianhu is not the kind of person with high consciousness, in his heart, promotion and wealth are more important than the lives of the people, if Brother Ying is replaced as the emperor, this Luo Qianhu has to go to the Northeast with Governor Liu to plant soybeans, but now, Luo Qianhu is already a good official much stronger than Liu Qianshan.

Daoist Yang Shengzi stood beside him and sighed: "In this filthy world, the people are the most bitter. ”

Qiu Yu: "Indeed, seeing this scene, I also understand why you want to avoid Qiongya Island. ”

Yang Shengzi smiled: "Those immortals of the Lu family at least have the courage and responsibility to resist the Japanese guards, and these generations of family heads have also managed Qiongya Island well, and the old way is hiding there, so that they can feel that they are still in the world, not hell." ”

"One day, the Yu Dynasty will be full of people." Qiu Yu muttered.

At this moment, he looked at a certain place vigilantly, and Yang Shengzi snorted.

Sure enough, some people won't let Luo Qianhu step on them to make meritorious contributions to themselves, and now they want to kill Luo Qianhu Liwei.

A man in black attacked here, and the old Taoist priest jumped forward, his clothes flew over, and he slapped a palm on a man in black.

Someone threw a dart at the rope that tied Luo Qianhu, and Qiu Yu stood by the rope early and swept it away with a sword.

He shouted to the soldiers: "Quick! Pull Luo Qianhu up! ”

A big battle began, Qiu Yu raised his sword and confronted a man in black, and reprimanded: "Are you assassinating the imperial court officials to be enemies of the imperial court?" ”

The assassin said unceremoniously: "Qiu family child, don't think that you can be unscrupulous if you cling to the Lu family, Huxiang is not the South China Sea!" Those pirates can't protect you! ”

Qiu Yu sneered: "This is not the South China Sea, but it is the same as the South China Sea!" Lu Xuan, the next generation of the head of the Lu family, has already run an errand for the emperor, but you are working against the emperor! Fools like you who can't see the situation clearly and help the Cao family mess up in the rear when the emperor is fighting, you won't be able to catch up with the hot ones when you eat shi in the future, and sooner or later you will fall into blood luck. ”

These words made the assassin's pupils shrink, and the Salt Gang naturally knew that Lu Xuan was the Lu family, but the Lu family has always been mysterious as an overseas force, and no one knew how many people there were in their family, nor did they know that Lu Xuan was the next head of the family.

Damn it! With such important information, you need to go back and report it to your uncle as soon as possible!

Unexpectedly, Qiu Yu's words were chaotic just to kill this person, and in the blink of an eye, the sword in Qiu Yu's hand penetrated the assassin's throat.

He drew his sword and blew blood.

"So that you idiots know that the Sprinkle family is not a hundred squatting methods for optical horse steps on Wudang Mountain."

Qiu Yu looked at those assassins, his eyes were cold: "I didn't expect the Huxiang Bureau."

The situation is so chaotic, tsk, it seems that he can't open a gypsum mine for Yingying in a hurry, and he will have to write to him later to tell him that he has another idea to build a temporary residence, otherwise those refugees are afraid that there will be no place to resettle. ”

On the other hand, in the most seriously affected downstream counties, Liu Ziyan found local people who could still speak and manage affairs, gathered the crowd with the Liu family, and loudly said that she would take them to escape to Qiongya Island.

A thin middle-aged man came out and said: "Miss, you are a nobleman, I am afraid that you don't know that you are in the local area, and those who can escape will flee early, and those who stay will not be able to walk, I don't know how far you are talking about Qiongya Island, but I am afraid that we will not be able to go anywhere, and it will be gone." ”

When the epidemic came out, all the people in the area who could run were gone, and those who were left behind were old and young women.

Liu Ziyan said firmly: "Old man, the dead and the dead are moved to the living, the people who can be relieved by the disaster relief grain transported to Huxiang by the imperial court are limited, not enough to feed you, come with me, I promise, when you get to Qiongya Island, you will have a way to live!" ”

She persuaded the victims in the front, and in the rear, Coffey was surprised: "There are really more than 6,000 refugees who can be taken away by us." ”

A guard of the Lu family next to her was also surprised: "She knew before she set off that when we came, there would be about six thousand people left here." ”

Those who have done practical things know that behind this accurate "6,000 people", it represents Liu Ziyan's grasp of the situation in this place, and it represents that she has investigated here!

Based on this alone, the guards of the Lu family have more respect for Liu Ziyan, this girl is only nine years old and is so capable, smart, and kind-hearted, she will definitely have a future in the future.

When Liu Ziyan took out the food brought by the Lu family and given to the victims on the road, that is, several truckloads of rough flour cakes that were easy to preserve, the victims immediately agreed to go to Qiongya Island with her.

For hungry refugees, a piece of bread is enough for them to do anything.

So under the leadership of Liu Ziyan and the integration of the Lu family, the huge team marched towards the south in an orderly manner, and they had to walk a short road, and at the end of the road was Qiongya Island, which was across the sea.

As one of the leaders of this team, Liu Ziyan took off the hairpin ring, changed into neat clothes, and dressed up as a boy, the Lu family guards have experience in transporting people and distributing food, but they don't understand Huxiang dialect, Liu Ziyan is the bridge of communication between the refugees and the Lu family guards.

Naturally, the eating, drinking, and problems of more than 6,000 people and the problems that can arise are a huge test for Liu Ziyan, before setting off, she probably didn't think about how much suffering and fatigue she would suffer in this matter, but she didn't say a word and carried it all down.

A young man named Cai Ye looked at her quietly and said to his companion, "This big girl is so capable of carrying things." ”

Companion teased: "Like? Think you're only two years older than others, so you're the right age. ”

Cai Ye blushed: "Phew, she is the daughter of an official family, how can she look down on me as a man." ”

Companion: "Also, unless this official girl wants to recruit a son-in-law, and she doesn't love the little white face and the little black face, otherwise you have no hope." ”

Cai Ye was angry, and immediately raised a knife and fought with someone, but was stopped by Coffey: "Don't fight, there is an old lady who has collapsed and died, and she carried the body to the side of the road." ”

Liu Ziyan looked at the old man's corpse, as well as the three-year-old girl who was standing next to her after her grandmother died, and her heart was sour, and she walked over to pick up the girl.

"Hold on a little longer, and when you get to Qiongya Island, you won't have to starve." She pressed against the girl's dirty face, so promised.

The girl looked at her, tears accumulated in her eyes, and flowed out again, raising her head and crying loudly: "Wow, ah, grandma, grandma......"

The child's cry resounded through the world, but the gray clouds were broken by the skylight, and the golden light was scattered on the earth, just falling on this official road along Qiongya Island.

Liu Ziyan began to carry the girl on her back and continued to walk, but she was physically weak, and her legs were weak after walking a few hundred meters, and a dark teenager walked up to her: "Eh, give her to me, I'll carry it." ”

This road was very hard, more than 200 refugees fell on the road, and there were too many refugees, if it were not for the Lu family to bring customs clearance documents, many cities and counties along the road would not allow them to pass.

When she finally arrived at Dongbin Port, it was the end of April, Liu Ziyan's eyes were extremely bright, her skin was dark, and her hands were no longer white and tender, and they became rough.

At the huge port where the flow of people was endless, a large number of ships led by Jiuyou appeared at the junction of sea and sky.

Lu Ying stood at the bow of the ship and ordered: "Prepare to collect the sails and enter the port, return."

Yes, prepare the sugar, and when you see the refugees, you will first send a tonic strength, I am afraid that someone will vent on the last journey and will not be able to get up. ”

Wang Zhouzhou carried a bag of candy and smiled: "Just look at it, Lao Ke and they have all sent people here, and on the next road, we will assign those people to take them well." ”

Behind Wang Zhouzhou, there were also Jin Hua and a dozen or so embroidery workshop girls who had lost their illiteracy, and they were all here to help today.

In Dongbin Port, a young doctor who traveled here to visit friends and see the sea looked at the refugees with Huxiang accents, and at the big ship of the Lu family that was about to enter the port, and his face was full of astonishment.

Zhang Hua whispered: "Save so many refugees in one go, so the Lu family on Qiongya Island is really an immortal?" ”
