A gentleman does not explore other people's secrets. Although Su Xun had doubts, he stopped asking. As a result, he filled the jar with a bowl and drank it all in one gulp. The heat in his chest was instantly wiped away.
I wanted to drink another bowl, and after thinking about it, I closed the jar and gave it to the servant, asking him to quickly deliver the jar of sour plum soup to my wife and daughter. I am afraid their life at home will be even more difficult.
"There are two heavens of ice and fire. It is extremely cold when winter comes, but it is extremely hot when summer comes. The red sun is scorching hot, and the seedlings in the farmland are already half-scorched. Although I don't have a single ridge in my field in Chengdu, I am about to die when I see a big disaster.
Come, but do not want to stay out of it. Brother Yun, you are a young hero and resourceful, why are you unwilling to help the government save the common people, and you are just trying to make small profits for yourself? This is not the way of a gentleman, Mr. Peng Li has been for decades
Are you also abandoning my clear name?"
As soon as the scorching heat on his body subsided, Su Xun immediately sat upright and talked with Yun Zheng about the road to people's livelihood.
"The rich will not lose their wealth, and the poor will not lose their poverty. This has been true throughout the ages. The Holy One has the responsibility to educate the people, and the officials have the right to guide the people. In short, it is the responsibility of the officials to save the people from water and fire. They
Since we have collected taxes from the people, we have the responsibility to protect the people. Now there is a raging war in Hengshan, and the capture army is raging in the border areas. The people in the entire village and the entire county have been captured alive by the capture army and made into slaves. If there is a slight complaint,
If the body and head are in a different place, will the officials ever feel guilty for a moment?
The Liao people raided the grass valleys, the Xixia captured the army, and the Tibetan bandits plundered like flying. The little Annan was able to attack the city and plunder the territory in the Song Dynasty, killing people and filling the fields. The government official was in a high position, and he could not resist the strong invaders externally and internally.
In order to bring peace to the common people, "Qingli Edition" adds numerous crimes of beheading. Why? Is it because there are not enough people who despise the death of the Song Dynasty?
Once there is a disaster, you only need to recruit the people into the Xiang army. It is a good way to cure the headache. Nowadays, there are fewer and fewer people paying taxes, but the Xiang army is increasing, with the number reaching almost one million.
Haha, when the disaster happened in the middle of Shu, the court could have hundreds of thousands more troops armed with farm tools and looms. Once foreign enemies invaded, they could send these hundreds of thousands of people to die. It was great, and we could see the Song Dynasty again.
The people's heads were rolling.
Self-righteous people think that diverting the water from the Minjiang River is a great merit? They don’t look at how much the Feiyuzui river has been filled up. During the dry landscape season, the river should be dredged instead of blocking the river to draw water. This has been summarized over thousands of years.
He, Zhang Fangping, is smarter than the outgoing magistrate Zhao? He is the only one who knows the allusion of crows fetching water? Everyone else is a fool?
Chengdu Prefecture has always had abundant rainfall, and the groundwater is very shallow. In many places, you only need to dig three feet into the ground and spring water will gush out. Even if the drought cannot be reversed, it is still possible to alleviate the drought. Who told you that it will still be possible in the year of severe drought?
Are you growing rice that requires a lot of water? This is the time to plant various drought-tolerant grains!
Who would be extremely stupid to even think about the idea of food equalization? He is not a rebellious mountain king who can rob families and homes, put a knife on the necks of wealthy households and ask them to donate their food, and starve while guarding their wealth? What a loss.
Zhang Fangping can imagine that he is still a famous minister of the Song Dynasty based on his virtues. Bah! Apart from tinkering with dozens of death sentences, I can't see how clever he is!"
Yun Zheng's anger that had been stagnated for many days erupted like a volcano. From the beginning, Yun Zheng planned to help the government solve this disaster, but later his heart became colder and colder. After Zhang Fangping arrived, everything he did
They all hate the people, and everything they do is exposed in front of Su Xun. I hope to give Zhang Fangping some inspiration through Su Xun's mouth. Unexpectedly, he doesn't care at all. As soon as he takes office, he is the first to do it.
The thing was to silt up Feiyuzui to raise the water level of the Minjiang River and irrigate the Chengdu Plain. He had forgotten what kind of river the Minjiang River was. This river was the culprit of the disaster in Sichuan for tens of thousands of years!
If the difference between the river water and the main canal is not big, this is naturally possible. Even if the river channel is not cleaned, the flood will throw the boulders at the bottom of the river to Feishayan. But now the water level of the Minjiang River has dropped by almost half, and half of the river channel is silted up. During the rainy season,
Once it arrives, once Feiyuzui is washed away, the entire Dujiangyan will be destroyed, so Yun Zheng has the idea of escape with his whole family.
Su Xun was speechless. He didn't expect that Yun Zheng's reaction would be so strong. He thought that Zhang Fangping was always thinking about the people, and he never thought that everything he and Zhang Fangping did was wrong.
"Why didn't you tell me earlier?" Su Xun asked softly.
"Tell me earlier? I've done it a long time ago, why do I need to talk about it? You asked me about the weavers in my family, don't you feel it? A Yun family helps the prefect to feed four to five hundred people, you just need to spread this method
After a while, with a little coercion, others will of course be reluctant to support those big families, but there is an 80% chance of supporting the weavers of their own family. The target of spreading fame and giving favors must be targeted, and no one is unwilling to support their own weavers.
Workers help themselves to buy their own strength!
Those people have no work to do. As you can see, I let them dig the soil as they please. There is no need to achieve any results. They only need to raise people diligently. Look at these days, the Yun family is digging wells desperately. Xiaoshi and the others are all digging wells.
We are here to help, how could you not know? Have you seen that the Yun family has used a drop of Minjiang water so far? The Yun family has opened all their privacy to you, why do you only know how to praise, but don’t know how to help?
How about Zhang Fangping’s implementation?
Your future wish is to be an official, alas! With your inflexible character, unless you become a government official, you will be of no use to the people at the local level."
Yun Zheng's anger was so high that he even forgot the etiquette he should have on weekdays. He turned around and left angrily. Now everything has become a foregone conclusion. It's too late to say anything. Now he can only pray that the drought will continue and there will be no rainy season.
It came too early. After the rice harvest was completed, Zhang Fangping had to clean up the accumulated rocks in Feiyuzui. Otherwise, the trouble would be big.
Only good officials who do bad things with good intentions will kill people alive! What is sad is that there are many good officials like this in the Song Dynasty, but there are very few pragmatic officials who are proficient in things and understand reason.
Zhao Pu said that half of the Analects of Confucius can govern the world. This is pure nonsense. He can't even cure hemorrhoids, let alone the ever-changing public sentiment. Yun Zheng himself is studying hard now. He found that he wants to read all these books.
Once you understand everything, you won't have any free time to understand other things. It's definitely not an exaggerated metaphor to wear it all with an iron inkstone.
Once such a person reaches high school, the first thing he needs to do is to be an official close to the people. After practicing with the common people, he becomes proficient in it and can actually govern the local area. However, he is immediately promoted and becomes a government official, and then returns to the government.
Another wave of scholars will be sent to continue training with the common people. Therefore, the common people are the whetstones for officials.
Lu Qingqing was sitting in the tent embroidering. The light red candlelight shone from the lantern, dyeing the snow-white tent red. The bug lay at Lu Qingqing's feet like a kitten. This girl was greedy for cold today and drank too much.
I drank the iced sour plum soup and now my stomach hurts.
Yun Zheng emptied the words in his stomach in one breath, and now his whole body feels refreshed. The trouble now is Su Xun, not himself anymore. No wonder people need to find someone to talk to when they are depressed, and use Su Xun to vent their anger.
Fortunately, even though he was relatively innocent, Yun Zheng didn't dare to curse in front of Zhang Fangping, because that guy's official power was just talk.
After passing through a mulberry field, I saw three heads of melon seeds pillowed on Bacon's legs. I didn't know what Bacon was telling the three children. The three children listened very carefully, but when they saw
Su Shi's feet were struggling to reach the black porcelain jar hanging on the mulberry tree, which showed that this guy's mind was not on listening to the story at all.
Going out again, I saw the servants of the Yun family lying on the mat. They also hung up the tents and slept very soundly. Xanthium and a few hunters had slept enough during the day. At this time, they were holding lanterns in the mulberry field.
Patrolling around, looking at their patrol circle, the weavers were obviously within the scope of their patrol.
In years of severe drought, the croaking of frogs seems to be less, the night seems a bit monotonous, the moon hangs in the sky like a sickle, it is the beginning of the month, the first quarter moon has just appeared, the edge looks a bit illusory, there is a big
The lunar halo encloses the moon in a huge circle. The so-called halo mid-night rain and lunar halo noon wind. It seems that there will be strong winds in the afternoon tomorrow. I hope so, it will be good to blow away the heat here a little bit.
.
Xanthium saw Yun Zheng looking around, so he walked over and said, "Yun Da, go back to sleep. It's getting cooler now. We're here to keep you safe. I've put out all the fires and poured some water on them."
The water won't catch fire, so go to sleep."
Yun Zheng grabbed Xanthium's rough hand and said: "Let's talk. To be honest, I miss our Dousha Village very much now. At this time of year, I should swim in the river, and when I'm tired, I go to sleep in the bamboo house.
, this damn place makes people uncomfortable everywhere, what do you think we are doing out here?"
Yun Zheng was not sleepy, not at all. He sang the song "Through the forest and across the snowfield" with great enthusiasm when he came out of Dou Sha Village, dreaming of integrating into a more advanced human circle. When he came in, he realized that there were some
Being fooled, the battles in this circle are more bloody and boring than the battles with the Wonsan bandits.
"Eat meat, Yunda, you forgot. When we go out, you have to say that you are destined to eat meat. But now we seem to be eating meat every day. No, we just eat meat every time when we are in Dousha Village."
Eat meat!”
Xanthium didn't understand what Yun Zheng meant by eating meat, so he quickly upgraded his concept of eating meat to eating good meat and large pieces of meat.
Yun Zheng now really hopes to go to Su Xun to continue talking. At least Su Xun will understand what he means by the right to eat meat. The so-called meat-eaters are despicable and fail to plan far, and they are talking about people like Yun Zheng. (To be completed.)
