The clouds are omitted, and buckwheat is seen in front of the horse; the sun shines brightly, and the ground is covered with red buds.

To put it simply, in the eyes of Liu Yi and others, Lingyuan County, the governor's office of Huaxing County, has mottled dark clouds in the sky, hazy sunlight, and the potholes on the ground reflecting the light red sun.

The water is not deep, barely reaching a horse's leg; the water is also deep, and there is no harvest in the fields.

It's completely different from last year's rice and wheat harvest.

...

Liu Yi, who was originally full of nostalgia, suddenly lost interest. He was so shocked by the scene in front of him that he couldn't speak. He thought to himself: Could it be that this most prosperous place in the north of the Great Wall was flooded?

The four of them were silent all the way. On the way, there were occasional people who rolled up their trouser legs and wore straw sandals around their waists. These people were wading in and out of the water. Although their faces were dull, their mood was also very low, and their behavior showed a strong sense of humor.

Feeling of powerlessness.

Before entering the city, Liu Yi met an old man whom he was familiar with. After asking around, he got the general idea.

It turned out that just last year, Zhonglang Habayashi appointed Lu Ling as the emperor's special envoy, leading 500 horsemen and iron guards to go to three states, six counties and nineteen counties to plan the allocation of funds for the Rainbow Canal and the recruitment of people. After weighing the pros and cons, Lu Zhonglang

, and finally handed over to the Liu family of Lingyuan the task of raising people and purchasing goods in the Huaxing County section of Hongqu Canal.

This is a fat difference among fat differences. As long as the Liu family can get a drop in the bucket from it, it will be a huge wealth.

Just when the Liu family was in full swing and working hard under the leadership of Liu Ruisheng, disaster came quietly.

It has been rainy this year, a flood year. Huaxing County is close to the Daling River, and the Daling River, as a branch of the Yellow River, is rich in water and grass. Logically speaking, the Huaxing area is not a land that is short of water. Therefore,

Building a canal in Huaxing County is a very tasteless thing in the eyes of discerning people. However, the Tian family has money, so just build a canal! But this big canal has not been completed yet, and I don’t know where it will be.

A few days ago, the sluice gate across the main road suddenly burst, and a sudden flood flooded Huaxing County completely. The crops that were about to be harvested were submerged by the torrential water, and not a single seedling was left.

.

The little brother said, "The entire eight counties of Huaxing were flooded, either because of overflowing rivers or washed away by rivers. There were several villages in one county that were flooded, ranging from a few to more than a hundred villages, and houses collapsed.

From ten to hundreds of people, the death toll ranged from a few to dozens, and the severity varied. In total, the number of people who died in the breach of the embankment was no less than a thousand."

As for Lingyuan County, the prefecture's capital, because of its high city walls and high terrain, no one's life is in danger for the time being. However, the situation in the city is not much better. Every family is having a hard time, and the crops are not in danger.

Needless to say, there was no harvest, and there was very little grain left in the stores going from house to house. The grain in some people's homes was soaked and moldy, making it difficult to swallow.

Harvests and livelihoods were gone, supplies were scarce, prices skyrocketed, and the price of grain in rice stores soared. Officials had to open warehouses to release grain. All official warehouses in Huaxing County were at the bottom. The county governor should have known this and hurriedly ordered Zhao,

The three wealthy families of Huang and Liu opened private warehouses and stored private grain, but they didn't know what the outcome would be.

The money is nothing after all the money is gone, but the villagers are just a group of landlubbers. They soak in the water every day, but they also have problems. People who suffer from joint disease, gout, and lung disease, ten out of ten

There are two or three. The medicinal herbs in the Lingyuan Mountains are almost gone!

The familiar young man Liu Yi met just now was going to the Lingyuan Mountains alone to find some herbs and food.

After listening to Liu Yi's narration, everyone felt even heavier. Yi Xian hugged two big yellow dogs and muttered to himself, not knowing what the little monk was talking about.

Several people entered Lingyuan County. The water was a little shallow. The four of them went directly to Zigui Academy without further delay. After entering the door, they were back home. A year of travel was finally over safely.

As soon as I stepped in, I could see Scholar Lang Lang. Liu Quansheng was concentrating on leading a group of children to read, reciting the "Monthly Order of the Four People" written by Cui Shi of the Eastern Han Dynasty. In Huaxing, which suffered from floods throughout the country,

The county, here at this moment, is a paradise.

Seven years ago, the neighbors helped renovate the thatched cottage and specially raised the foundation of the thatched cottage. At this time, although the water from the Ling River flooded the small courtyard, it did not reach the steps of the cottage and did not flow into the thatched cottage, so that the children studying could have a peaceful life.

The place where the cone is established can be regarded as a blessing among misfortunes.

It was also seven years ago that Liu Quansheng's name as Mr. Da was widely spread in the streets of Lingyuan.

Seeing his beloved disciple leading the class, Dongfang Chunsheng had no intention of disturbing him, and the four of them tied the pony to the stable on the right side of the school.

When the red rabbit saw its owner returning, it got fatter and stomped its hoofs, snorted lightly, and nudged Liu Yi with its head. Liu Yi hurriedly stepped forward and hugged the horse's neck, touching it with its left side.

The right hand caressed the horse tightly. Sai Chihau gently used the horse's buttocks to hump the short horses on both sides. His expression was one of pride!

After tying up their horses, they carried their luggage and walked straight into the back house where Liu Yi and Liu Quansheng lived.

Four people suddenly poured into the two-door wooden house in the back house, which seemed a little crowded. When Liu Yi entered the house, he saw that there was still a pot, a lamp, a book, and a sword. Even the decorations were exactly the same as when Liu Yi left.

It made Liu Yi feel more cordial.

After entering the house, Dongfang Chunsheng took a nap on the kang, but did not close his eyes. There was an unpredictable look in his eyes. This kind of look and expression had never been seen by Dongfang Yu, who had been with Dongfang Chunsheng since childhood.

.

Liu Yi put down the package and tidied up every corner of the house. Yi Xian chatted with Dongfang Yu about strange things in the world. The three children were enjoying themselves in the house. When Dongfang Chunsheng saw this, the expression on his face gradually changed.

From unpredictable to gentle, from gentle to dignified, and from dignified to determined.

After a while, the word "Qi" was heard in the school, and the morning's lessons were over. Since there was water everywhere outside, Liu Quansheng left the children in the thatched cottage for a lunch break and served them the meals that had been prepared.

.

When Liu Yi saw his father slowly walking towards the back room, he immediately rushed out excitedly. When he came to the outside of the thatched cottage, he knelt down in front of Liu Quansheng and said in a choked voice, "Father, my child is unfilial, and my beloved relatives are still here.

But I traveled far away. After traveling for a year, I missed my father all the time."

Liu Quansheng did not expect that Dongfang Chunsheng and the other four would return so quickly. He was shocked at first but then overjoyed.

Immediately, Liu Quansheng stepped forward to help Liu Yi up. He looked around and saw that his hair and skin were intact. His excitement was beyond words, his big eyes were red, and he sighed repeatedly, "Okay, okay! Just come back! Take a look at it for your father, hahaha."

, I’m taller, stronger, and I have a bit of heroic spirit! Good, good! I will definitely be a pillar of talent in the future.”

At this time, Wang Sanbao, Huangfu Lu, and Ying Cheng, who took the initiative to stay behind to help clean up the house, hurriedly stepped forward to salute, and shouted "big brother" in unison.

"Haha! The reunion of brothers and gathering of friends is one of the great pleasures in life."

Liu Yi stood sideways and helped the three of them up. After looking at them again and again, the four of them hugged each other tightly.

What they didn't know was that the four of them hugged each other tightly, and from then on, they embraced the world.

There was a slight cough in the backyard, and Liu Quansheng, who was still sighing, immediately regained consciousness and hurried to the living room.

When Liu Quansheng entered the house, he saw Dongfang Chunsheng, and it was another happy reunion between master and disciple!

This fight between you and me can be regarded as joy in the midst of floods!

...

Regarding the return of the four people, Liu Quansheng did not make any grand arrangements to greet them. During this special period, he did not even greet his neighbors Li Daniu and Huangfu Ke. Only Dongfang's grandson and the five Liu family members were present at the dinner party.

That night, Liu Quansheng was the chef, and after some frying, fried okra, braised squid, boiled eggs, and spicy tofu were served on the table in a basin.

For Lingyuan, where the river burst its banks, the people were hungry, and food was in short supply, this meal, which weighed a lot of money, seemed quite difficult. Coupled with two jars of Dukang aged wine that Liu Quansheng had collected for a long time, the four of them enjoyed the meal after a bumpy journey.

Full of praise.

At the banquet, Liu Quansheng did not drink, but kept serving food to Mr. Dongfang. In contrast, this world-recognized genius showed his attitude towards Liu Yihe, and he was obviously relatively indifferent. Liu Yi only

It seemed that Liu Quansheng respected his teacher and did not pay attention, so he took the initiative to greet Yi Xian.

After drinking and eating, Liu Quansheng dug out some huge pine nuts from somewhere and gave them to Liu Yi, asking him to entertain Wang Sanbao and Huangfu Lu, who came to reminisce about the past, in the thatched cottage, so there should be three people, plus Dongfang

It was obvious that Yu and Jilai were familiar with each other. Six young men of similar age were lighting lamps and boiling oil in the thatched cottage. They were chatting with great interest and naturally forgot about some of their worries.

In the wooden house at the back, Liu Quansheng and Dongfang Chunsheng sit opposite each other. The curtains of the small house are high and rolled up.

Liu Quansheng boiled the bitter tea neatly. Although there was no rules, it did not affect the fragrance of the bitter tea that filled the room. As soon as the tea was boiled, Liu Quansheng came to Dongfang Chunsheng with the courtesy of a junior, and then he lowered his head and waited.

Admonitions for spring students in the East.

Dongfang Chunsheng warmed up the bitter tea and put it down gently. The old man looked at Liu Quansheng gently, and when he saw Liu Quansheng looking at him warmly in the spring breeze, he rubbed the wrinkles on his forehead and suddenly felt a sore nose.

Dongfang Chunsheng sighed slightly, "A year ago, I came here with anger, just to ask face to face, where did the fearless Liu Quansheng, the prime minister of the country, go? Today, I finally understand,

A talented man is still a talented man, and a young man is still a young man. They say that a wise son is better than a father. If you are a teacher and a student, I don’t understand you, so I have lived half my life in vain! I’m ashamed, I’m ashamed!”

Before Liu Quansheng could give any feedback, Dongfang Chunsheng suddenly burst into laughter, and then he raised his hand solemnly and bowed to Liu Quansheng, "I have read thousands of volumes, and I am friends with the ancients; I am penniless, but I worry about the world; Liu Quansheng is a true scholar! I am a true scholar!"

After all the ups and downs in my life, it’s not a waste of time to have a half-way disciple like you who can be tolerant and good at maneuvering!”

Dongfang Chunsheng, who has always never admitted his mistakes, could say these words. Liu Quansheng was unexpectedly nervous. After being moved, he quickly moved his body, held Dongfang Chunsheng's right elbow, and helped him smooth out the uneven joints.

Breathing, he said softly, "Teacher, when I was young, my disciple studied at Xianda Academy, a holy place of Confucianism, and I got to know you while traveling around the world. Although you and Quan Sheng are half-way masters and disciples, they are like father and son. People who can understand my disciple,

In this vast sea of ​​people, there are only two and a half people, one is the emperor far away in Chang'an, and the other is you right in front of me!"
