Royal road

Winter is supposed to be the slack season in Japan, but Shangdang this winter is extremely busy.The Taishou Mansion promulgated a new policy, and the counties postponed the payment of autumn grain, allocated part of the grain and grass to accommodate refugees, built Wubao, and renovated the city.If there is spare capacity, it is necessary to reclaim wasteland and increase the number of official farmland.

For this reason, the county government sent officials to inspect Anmin in various counties.Each county also distributed a hundred horses and a lot of plows for the refugees to use in reclamation.The construction of the style of Wubao, the construction of water conservancy facilities such as overturned cars, and the detailed rules for labor relief are all clearly listed and handed over to the county magistrate.

Such an order is simply unbelievable.You must know that the entire Bingzhou is now under the threat of the Huns.Liu Yuan was already offering sacrifices to heaven in the southern suburbs of Lishi, and he might be enthroned and found a country in a few days.Shangdang is located in the throat of Bingzhou, directly facing the Huns' army.In such a place, it is too late for the common people to escape, so how can it be possible to reclaim wasteland and build a city with peace of mind?

Not to mention the orders of the prefect's mansion, even the emperor's orders, it may not work!

However, to the surprise of many aristocratic families, those common people in the head of Guizhou, who were terrified, actually accepted such an arrangement.Just because the order came along with the news that Lucheng defeated the Xiongnu cavalry.

It is said that he killed three to 4000 people in one go!This horse was captured on the battlefield, so it was sent to them to open up wasteland.The group of Huns' rebellious army was no match for the soldiers of the new government lord.There are also rumors that the Fujun is the descendant of the Medicine Buddha, and the group of thieves who dared to offend the Fujun were all wiped out by Thunder and Meteor!

I don't know whether it was intentional or unintentional, such rumors gradually spread in the counties.Everyone can see the war horses used as farming cattle, and many people who passed by Lucheng have seen the terrible Jingguan Corpse Mountain.In addition, the story of Jinyang's epidemic prevention was widely spread, and many people believed that there were gods and Buddhas sitting in the government office of the county city to prevent them from the terrible war disaster.

Bingzhou is not stable.But unless it is at stake, who would leave the homeland where they were born and raised?Not to mention that the chaos in Sizhou is still going on, Yanzhou is rebelling again, and Youzhou is full of vicious yellow-headed Xianbei, where can they escape to survive?Instead of leaving home, it is better to be attached to the ruler of Liangfu.At least he can let the county magistrates distribute food relief, organize everyone to build a life-saving Wubao, and those overturned farm tools can even keep the next year's harvest.

In troubled times, as long as there is a glimmer of hope, it will give people infinite courage.Therefore, in the face of these seemingly inconceivable decrees, the people have no doubts, settle down obediently, and work hard for this chance of survival.

Now, even those aristocratic families who watched with cold eyes became interested in the new prefect of Shangdang.There are also some, act quickly.

By the Sushui Pavilion of Weishan Mountain.

Today is the first time Mr. Liang hosted a banquet. It is rare for him to think of all the great families after taking office for two months.However, in the face of this impolite new prefect, all the aristocratic families did not complain, let alone show any restraint, and all went to the appointment happily.

Without him, the prefect's experience is too legendary.

Before the Buddha's dream, Jinyang's epidemic prevention, the general's mansion conquest and so on, he had already given him the limelight.Unexpectedly, with a mere dozens of people, this son eradicated the Chengdu King's men and horses who rebelled against the Shangdang, won three passes, and single-handedly paved the way for Dong Yinggong's army to return to the division and merge the state.It is a rare talent to be able to put down chaos so cleanly, and what is even more admirable is the subsequent Lucheng offensive and defensive battle.Overnight, the enemy camp was broken, and thousands of Xiongnu cavalry fled in embarrassment.Just rely on the hundreds of soldiers in the county?It can be called a miracle!

In addition, measures such as building schools, recruiting virtuous people, and ordering counties to accommodate refugees, etc., no matter which one is enough, it is enough to make people look sideways.Now that there is a banquet and invitation, who can hold back curiosity and miss this opportunity to see the true face?

It was early winter, and the vegetation on the Weishan Mountain was withered and yellow, without the green and pleasant charm of the past, and it looked bleak.Liang Feng didn't wear bright clothes either, just a green robe and a small crown, white socks and plain shoes, in this desolate place, he exuded a different kind of charm.

Now he is no longer a waiting man in white clothes who is judged by others, no matter how simple his clothes are, no one will show contempt.However, some people still speculated secretly in their hearts, it seemed that the Liang family had no permanent property and was struggling everywhere, so why would he be able to sell some Buddhist scriptures and paper to make people laugh?If such a person became the prefect, I am afraid that he would not really think about them, the gentry.

There has always been a clear distinction between the gentry and the poor.Liang Feng, who was born in a middle-class gentry family, but vigorously appoints poor people, is a bit embarrassing.Looking at his poor demeanor, it made everyone feel even more uncomfortable.If he favors the humble family everywhere, I am afraid that Shangdang will not be able to settle down.

As the head of a county, Liang Feng was the first to speak: "Everything is busy when I come in, and I haven't been free all the time. I have been negligent. Please forgive me."

Li Hao smiled and said, "Why should the governor be overly modest. Pacifying the county and resisting the enemy's cavalry is far more important than having fun. If the governor is not dedicated to business, how can we be at ease?"

This Li Hao was born in the Li family of Tongda, the most prominent family in Shangdang.His ancestor, Li Xun, used to be the royal official of the Wei State. After the Sima family replaced Wei, he became the official doctor of Guanglu, named Qihou, and posthumously presented the Taibao after his death.Lee Ho's father and brother also served as senior officials.Therefore, even if he has not become an official, his status is two points higher than others.

These words sound like flattery, but in fact they have some hints.As the prefect of a county, Liang Feng really ignored these prominent families too much.

Liang Feng sneered: "It's just a common thing. I'm having a banquet today, and I hope to have fun with you all."

This statement seems to change the topic, and it also has the meaning of inviting everyone to govern the Shangdang together.Everyone sitting here is not the kind of vulgar thing that would spoil the fun at an elegant banquet, so they naturally took their seats.

After everyone sat down, a maid served tea soup.When they saw the teacup in front of them clearly, many people gasped in surprise.This is not an ordinary pottery bowl or celadon cup, but genuine white porcelain!It looks like a lotus bud, with vine branches as the handle, small and exquisite, and very elegant.It is rare to find more than ten lamps, but the shape and structure are generally the same, which shows the exquisite craftsmanship of the kiln workers!

Just this set of white porcelain cups is priceless!How could you dare to underestimate the person in front of you who was still contemptuous just now?Liang Feng didn't seem to know what they were amazed at, and explained with a smile: "This is the method I learned from the temple. Take the best loose tea, boil it with mountain springs, don't add onion, ginger, osmanthus, salt and other ingredients, just taste tea The mellowness of it has a special taste."

The green tea leaves fell on the bottom of the snow-white cup, and the light green tea soup filled the cup.Just looking at it this way, it is beautiful.Take a sip carefully, it is even more sweet and bitter, with endless aftertaste.Everyone sitting here, who can't afford spices?Remove the strong taste of those precious spices, but the tea soup has a sense of freshness, just like the person seated, unrefined and natural.

"I never thought that Fu Jun would be so elegant. Taste this tea, and you will know the true taste of tea." Someone jokingly said.

Liang Feng doesn't think that everyone can get used to this kind of clear tea, but it's the way to be unconventional and unconventional.What's more, what he focused on promoting was not the tea.

With this cup of tea clearing the way, the atmosphere immediately became harmonious.The dishes are delicacies, delicious and unique, not inferior to any official banquet, and the host did not show the intention of taking a school exam, drinking and having fun, chatting with everyone casually.The appearance of the new government lord is already outstanding, but with such a posture, it is even more frustrating.After a meal, many people silently nodded in their hearts. This person is indeed a nobleman.

With such a class identity, everything else becomes trivial.After all, in such an aristocratic family as theirs, no one would rush to curry favor with a prefect.It can even be said that the prefect is an official position that most of them can achieve.On the contrary, respecting them and relying heavily on the gentry is the attitude these people look forward to most.

The banquet did not involve any serious business, but let everyone see the celebrity demeanor of the new governor.However, the other party is different from other celebrities who like to hold jade ruyis, feather fans, and stag tails. In his hands, there is only a string of beads wrapped around his wrist, which he occasionally dials up and down when talking.Nowadays, there are also many Hu monks who have entered the middle land. Although Buddhist beads are not very common, they are not unknown to everyone.It's just that it's rare for someone to wrap this prayer bead around his wrist.

As if he couldn't hold back his curiosity, one of them asked, "Dare to ask Fu Jun, is the bead string on your hand a gift from the Buddhist family?"

This question is a bit impolite, but Liang Feng doesn't think it's disobedient: "This is a holding bead, subtract one hundred and eight to get 36, and you can carry it with you. It aims to restrain the body and mind, and increase wisdom. Although it is a small way, it is also beneficial to merit. .”

He said it easily, but everyone had already set their sights on the string of beads.Unlike other Buddhist beads, most of this bead is made of jade, which is crystal clear, making the thin wrist even more delicate.But among the jade beads, there are six distinctive beads, divided into blue and red, which look like colored glaze.

Is this really Liuli?Why is it so round and clear?However, this question is really not easy to ask in public.Everyone turned the topic back to Buddhism.After all, coming prepared, most people can talk about it, and there are quite a few who have studied the "Diamond Sutra".

Liang Feng answered one by one, with no expression on his face.Holding the bead in his hand, he turned it more frequently.Let those glazed beads appear in front of everyone from time to time.

The meal lasted until noon, and the host and guest enjoyed themselves.Everyone went down Weishan Mountain and set off to return home one after another.However, just as Liang Feng got into the ox cart, a guard whispered, "Your Majesty, Mrs. Xue and Mrs. Wei are asking to see you."

Just after dinner, I want to make an appointment, it's still the two of you.Liang Feng smiled: "Please follow me back to the mansion to discuss in detail."
