Half an hour later, Shi Tao let them disperse.
Lu Desheng walked out first, and saw that the sky where there was still sunshine just now was now raining heavily.
After Lu Desheng walked out, the two governors of Xuantu County and Lelang County, Wu Chi and Lei Xin, looked at each other, said goodbye to Shi Tao, and went out together.
In the meeting hall, only Shi Tao and Lu Yiliang were left.
As soon as the three of them went out, Lu Yiliang started to complain, "Master Shi, this Lu Desheng has gone too far!"
"He's just a piece of meat! A real piece of meat!" The confrontation with Lu Desheng made Lu Yiliang go crazy.
Shi Tao looked at the irritable Lu Yiliang and frowned slightly, "Okay, just give him a beating."
If this matter is pursued with great fanfare, they will not be justified.
As a subordinate, how can you not be a little aggrieved?
Lu Yiliang could see that Shi Tao was impatient and swallowed the words that came to his lips, but he really couldn't swallow this breath. He thought to himself, Lu Desheng, don't let me seize the opportunity, otherwise I will kill you.
As he was thinking about it, a sinister look appeared on his face.
Shi Tao also saw Lu Yiliang's expression, but he didn't care about it.
The people from Liaodong County sent Shi Xue back. Because of her request, they did not send her to the governor's mansion, but dropped her off nearby.
Because the governor's wife was in charge of the inner house, under her cover, Shi Tao did not know at this time that his daughter had been robbed by bandits in Liufu Village and rescued by people from Liaodong County.
outside the house
Lu Desheng heard footsteps coming from behind, turned around and took a look, and found that Wu Chi and Lei Xin had also come out, so he waited where he was.
"Master Lu, you are this -" Wu Chi gave him a thumbs up.
The two of them looked at Lu Desheng with admiration. He was worthy of being a censor. Lu Yiliang was speechless just now.
Lu Desheng smiled and said, "You can travel all over the world with reason, but you can't move even without reason."
Wu Chi and Lei Xin looked at each other and shouted wildly in their hearts.
Wu Chi: No, this is true for others, but for you, there is no limit to what you can do. If you catch something unreasonable, then you will make it unfair. How can you ignore it?
Lei Xin: With your ability to disturb people unreasonably, you can go anywhere, and you can turn all the narrow paths into broad roads.
In front of them, the two of them said, "Master Lu is too humble."
"You two, how about we go back together?" Lu Desheng expressed his goodwill. If Wu Chi and Lei Xin want to return to Xuantu County and Lelang County, they must pass through Liaodong County.
The two hesitated. Lu Desheng had obviously offended Lu Yiliang.
Who doesn't know that Lu Yiliang is Shi Tao's confidant, and this guy is in a very light mood. If they leave with Lu Desheng now, they will definitely be hated by this guy.
Lu Desheng said considerately, "How about I wait for you two at the Wuyou Tea Shop in front?"
Wu Chi and Lei Xin looked at each other and agreed, "Okay, okay."
In fact, their relationship with Lu Yiliang is average, and this guy is nothing. He has colluded with some bandits in Liaoxi County, so naturally he will not go to great lengths to suppress the bandits, but he does not suppress them, and he does not allow the other three counties in Pingzhou to suppress them. Otherwise he would give them eye drops at the governor's place.
Now, in the governor's house, they give this little face, but outside, they don't care.
We are all county guards, so they cannot lower their stance too low.
"Then I'll take the first step."
"Master Lu, please——"
Lu Desheng held an oil-paper umbrella and walked out. Their carriage was parked outside.
The cool breeze was blowing along with the drizzle, and Lu Desheng gathered his cloak. Every autumn rain was followed by a cold breeze. The ancients did not deceive me.
Lu Desheng walked while avoiding puddles on the ground.
This rain is annoying.
This kind of weather is suitable for sitting at home, cooking tea and reading a book, rather than running around outside.
Lu Desheng sighed in his heart that his life was really miserable. He was summoned on a rainy day and had to rush from Liaodong County.
After getting on the carriage, Lu Desheng began to seriously consider his daughter's suggestion that he should be the governor of Pingzhou.
He now feels that this proposal is very good. Not to mention other benefits, at least after he becomes the governor, no one in Pingzhou can order him to go out on rainy days.
Nanyang
Zhang Xian was worried. It had been a while since he arrived in Nanyang, but Nanyang's post-disaster reconstruction and resettlement of victims were progressing slowly.
Because he knew that the amount of food he brought for disaster relief was limited.
His first step after arriving in Nanyang was to organize manpower to excavate the location of the government granary.
Government granaries were generally built on high ground with good ventilation and dryness, and were far away from rivers.
The Nanyang earthquake changed the landform, and the river flowed backwards, submerging the location of the granary.
According to the estimates of experienced master craftsmen, the grain buried underground will probably become moldy and rotten even if it is dug out.
Many people didn't have much hope after hearing this.
However, Zhang Xian was still obsessed with the Yellow River and did not see it with his own eyes. He always had a glimmer of hope.
There is so much food, but it is good if some of it can be used.
But the result ultimately disappointed him.
After that, he focused his work on the treatment and resettlement of the victims.
Zhang Xian has known for a long time that disaster relief is a tedious task that involves high investment and slow results.
He has begun to resettle the victims according to the previous court's disaster relief methods, and also used the work-for-relief method.
But a clever woman cannot make a meal without rice. Disaster relief food has arrived one after another, and even the first batch of food has been used up.
Those who don’t work get a bowl of thin porridge per person per day. Those who work can eat two meals, each of which is a bowl of thin porridge and two steamed buns.
The victims were all lifeless and lifeless.
The victims are still well-dressed, but most of them are still hungry and don't even have a place to stay. It's getting colder now, and if we don't solve it well, there will really be big problems.
Zhang Xian was pacing back and forth worriedly.
He didn't want to record such a thing in the history books. In the second year of Tianhe, there was an earthquake in Nanyang. Zhang Xian, an important official of the imperial court, asked for orders to go to the disaster relief. He failed to do the job well, resulting in the death of hundreds of thousands of people.
No matter what the cause of death was, whether it was due to an earthquake, starvation or freezing.
He dared to say that for the sake of his own reputation, the emperor would definitely throw the blame on him and Zuo Anmin.
When he thought of this, he couldn't help but glance at Zuo Anmin next to him. He really wanted to strangle him, the culprit!
Now Zhang Xian is counting on Mr. Lu to give him some advice so that he can complete the disaster relief work more satisfactorily.
Zuo Anmin sat on the edge, he was too tired.
Zhang Xian is not a good man. When he arrived in Nanyang, all the work was put on him.
If he dared to complain, Zhang Xian would simply give up the job.
He dares to be angry but dare not speak.
At this moment, he could also see that Zhang Xian was worried, and he sneered in his heart, "It's okay to be worried, it will never kill you!"
Zhang Xian: "The situation in Nanyang is like this. Let's work together to find a solution."
Zuo Anmin curled his lips, "What can I do?"
"After all, you have experience in helping to deal with floods in Nanyang, why don't you think about whether there are any available strategies? Let's discuss and solve this problem. Otherwise, the post-disaster problems in Nanyang cannot be handled well. After returning to Chang'an, I will certainly let you The emperor feels that he is not worthy of his responsibilities, and you are also to blame."
Zuo Anmin still looked like he was in need of help. If the sky fell and Zhang Xian, the chief officer, was carrying it, his guilt would definitely be smaller than Zhang Xian's. What was he anxious about?
"As an adjutant, your responsibilities are indeed not as big as mine. But what if you misunderstand people and delay state affairs? Or you may avenge private affairs and fail to see the overall situation, causing harm to the country and the people."
Hearing this, Zuo Anmin's expression gradually became solemn, and he glared at Zhang Xian. This guy really wanted to use him as a backing up even if he died!
