Chapter 67 Be an official like this, be a man like this

Huizhou Mansion

"This young master, the little old man's boat can row here,

I heard that if we go any further, we will invite disaster, and the little old man will not be able to get by. ”

A boatman with a hat on his head, baring his jagged teeth,

Said flatteringly,

There are four people sitting on this small boat, in addition to Yang Shiqi and Xia Yuanji brought out by Zhu Xiongying, there is also the fifth uncle who was hard-pulled,

Zhu Xiongying also thought that after the disaster, so many corpses could easily form a pandemic, and getting the fifth uncle over was also a professional counterpart.

Yang Shiqi narrowed his eyes, His Royal Highness had already explained the situation to them,

Even if it was an old yin like Yang Shiqi, he was dumbfounded,

"Uncle, you know that there is a disaster in front of you, why don't you go to the capital?"

The fifth Zhu Hu couldn't help but ask,

The little old man rowing showed an expression of a fool,

Kai Kai explained,

"This lord, the officials don't care about this,

What do I care about a little old man who begs for a living on the water?

I can't do that much! ”

The crowd is indifferent,

Xia Yuanji took out his money bag, took out a few taels of silver, and put it in his hand.

Then he counted it carefully three times in his hand before handing the money to the little old man rowing the boat.

Said

"Uncle, this is the boat money."

A group of four people disembarked,

Zhu Hu's face was full of helplessness, and he looked at Zhu Xiongying,

"I said eldest nephew, you are going to toss me to death by going so far away?

It's even more finished now, we've only been halfway through this journey, and we've been thrown down,

I can't go by water, I can only take the land route,

Riding over, I don't know how many more days it will take. ”

Zhu Xiongying rolled his eyes and looked at the fifth Zhu Hu,

threatened,

"Fifth uncle, if you talk so much nonsense, don't mess with me in the future!"

When the fifth Zhu Hu heard this, he hurriedly shut up,

stood beside Zhu Xiongying obediently, and leaned over to make up.

Xia Yuanji squatted down and looked forward at the waterway,

sighed,

"If you can't take the waterway when you get to Huizhou Mansion,

The front is all wasted,

The last time I was affected by such a big flood, Wechen only read it in a book. ”

Zhu Xiongying nodded,

According to the little old man rowing, the lower reaches of the Yangtze River from here should be completely flooded.

But thankfully,

The rain has stopped these days,

This is also the golden time for disaster relief, after all, I don't know when the next rain will come.

If you can build a simple embankment in a race against time, then you can still top it a little.

Now, it's a race against time with God.

Zhu Xiongying and the others spent a lot of money to buy four horses, and Zhu Xiongying had already found someone to send a message to Uncle Seven.

He asked Uncle Seven to transfer the largest force outside of Stable Sun Moon Island to support him.

Zhu Xiongying now needs to go straight into Jiujiang Mansion in the boundary of Huguang Land, which is the densest place in the river network.

There is a big picture,

The four of them got on their horses and moved on.

........

Huguang Jiujiang Province

"O iniquity! What a sin! ”

I saw an old man in an official uniform, his face full of pain and despair,

He is the political envoy of Hu Guangcheng,

Wen Yang Dao.

The entire Huguang provinces are under its jurisdiction, and they deserve to be the masters of the assassination.

Wen Yangdao's fingers trembled and pointed at the few people in front of him,

are the heads of large families in the south of the Yangtze River,

At this time, these family heads were standing in front of Wen Yangdao with flattery on their faces,

"You lunatics! Do you want the old man to be a traitor?!

Your Majesty trusts the old minister, let the old man hold the entire Huguang!

But now Huguang is suffering!

You want the old man to hide it and not report it! This is aiding and abetting!! ”

Wen Yangdao's voice trembled, as if he was so angry that he was going to turn his back at any time,

His tone became more and more stern,

"O you, ye guys!

You are all friends of the old man for almost twenty years! Bosom friend!

You are forcing the old man to a dead end!

Old man, I'm sorry Your Majesty! I'm sorry for the people of Huguang! ”

Wen Yangdao cried blood, sat on the ground and slapped the ground,

It looks extremely distressing,

Anyone can see that this is a loyal minister for the country and the people!

Ji'an Wang's family, the head of the family, Wang Guan,

A hint of contempt flashed in his eyes,

Squatted in front of Wen Yangdao, and hurriedly helped Wen Yangdao up,

"Oops! Lord Qingtian!

What are you doing here?!

Natural disasters are like this, what else can we do?!

Even if it has nothing to do with us, according to Hong Wuye's temperament, can we run?!

Inevitably, you will die! ”

Wen Yangdao was stunned when he heard this,

The rest of the heads of the family chimed in.

Shaoxing Chen family, Chen family head,

Chen Fengjin sighed,

"My lord, we have no choice but to do it for our own heads.

Besides, don't you see that we are also in the process of disaster relief and food distribution?

Let's just say that on this day, how much money will have to be thrown away?

Do you see our eyes blink?

Who are we for? Not for Hong Wuye?

We are taking money to eliminate disasters for Hong Wuye!

Besides, don't you like that sentence of His Highness the Holy Sun the most?

Sometimes, doing nothing is best.

You just do nothing, and leave the troubles to us with these little worries! ”

Wen Yangdao was furious when he heard this, and snorted,

"A few of you things are also worthy of mentioning the name of His Highness the Holy Sun!

And so you go!

If only Your Majesty knew! You're all going to have to lose your heads! ”

Chen Fengjin had a grim expression on his face,

Snorted coldly,

"We'll lose our heads, and you're not good!"

Wang Guan glared at Chen Fengjin,

Scolded,

"How do you talk to adults?!

My lord, think about it again,

We're still busy with disaster relief, so you can squeak if something happens. ”

Wen Yangdao said angrily,

"You're holding the old man here! The old man is here to spend with you!

The old man wants you to know,

Da Ming! There are loyal ministers who are not afraid of death!

Get lost!

Get out of here! ”

The heads of the family looked at each other, bowed respectfully and exited the room.

The voice of Wen Yangdao came from the room,

The voice is full of righteousness,

"Heaven and earth have righteousness, and evil does not prevail over righteousness!"

Chen Fengjin was extremely unhappy, Wang Guan glanced at him and pulled Chen Fengjin away.

Wen Yangdao sat in the room with his eyes closed,

Loud said,

"The whole world is turbid, I am alone! The whole world is turbid, and I wake up alone!! ”

"As a minister, he should be himself...."

"Your Excellency."

A beautiful female voice came from outside the room, interrupting Wen Yangdao's chanting,

Wen Yangdao frowned slightly,

"Your Excellency, it's time for you to eat."

"Meals? The old man wants to go on a hunger strike! ”

The maid outside paused,

Continued,

"My lord, I made your favorite mandarin fish today."

Wen Yangdao was stunned when he heard this, and subconsciously swallowed and foamed,

"If you don't eat it...."

Wen Yangdao frowned, got up and waved his hand,

Bellowed

"Last time, the mandarin fish was not authentic!

Tell the cook,

The old man doesn't eat the smelly mandarin fish! ”
