Lucheng snow disaster

On the twenty-fifth day of the twelfth lunar month, an urgent report was sent to the palace. After reading the urgent report, the old emperor had to call the ministers in Beijing into the palace to discuss matters.

It snowed heavily near Lucheng for seven days, and many people were cold and starved.In recent years, there have been many snowstorms in Huichao in winter. Compared with the previous years, the snowstorm in Lucheng this time is not serious.

The officials of His Highness exchanged glances, knowing that the old emperor recruited them into the palace now, most likely to show compassion for the common people.

The Minister of the Household Department and the Minister of the Ministry of Industry reported the previous disaster relief experience to the old emperor. The old emperor pondered for a while and said: "In previous years, most of the snow disasters occurred in the first month of the twelfth lunar month. After the disaster relief, the people can live a stable year. Now the snow disaster occurs in In the end of the year, I plan to arrange for a prince to accompany the disaster relief, to appease the hearts of the people. Dear friends, which prince do you think is appropriate to send?"

When all the ministers heard the emperor's words, they all looked at their noses and noses and their hearts, and fell silent for a moment.The emperor's mind is obvious, he wants to arrange a prince to share the credit.As for which prince to arrange, I also know that it is the emperor's favorite prince.

"I think the crown prince is an example for the princes, so I should send the crown prince to help the disaster." The Minister of Rites said first.Later, several officials also responded one after another.

The old emperor got the result he wanted, waved his hand and dismissed all the officials.

The next day, the prince left the capital and went to Lucheng with several officials, several carts of money and food, and three hundred elite soldiers.Among these officials, there is Wei Shichen who was just transferred to the household department doctor.

Find some excitement

Young Master Lu and his sister-in-law stood at the gate of the Lu Mansion early in the morning and began to wait for others.I watched several carriages passing by with concern all morning, but there was no one they were waiting for.

It wasn't until the middle of the corner that the carriage that Young Master Lu and his sister-in-law were waiting for drove over.

Before the carriage stopped, a handsome young man jumped out of the carriage. "Mother, Uncle." The young man greeted with a smile, raised his hand to compare the top of his head, and then the top of Young Master Lu's.

"You child, why are you so indifferent." Lu Daobang's mischievous behavior provoked the Lu family's sister-in-law to reprimand lightly, but it also diluted the Lu family's sister-in-law's concern for the eldest son for more than a year.

"Mother has always protected my uncle." Lu Daobang replied, calling the two of them to enter the house together.

Mr. Lu and the others sitting in the room obviously had been waiting for a long time.After saluting one by one, Lu Daobang sat down and answered everyone's questions.

Young master Lu listened for a while, feeling very envious.His eldest nephew Lu Daobang participated in Chunwei in the same year as him. Young Master Lu was on the list, but Lu Daobang was not.After Lu Daobang failed the exam, he didn't want to study behind closed doors at home anymore, so he went out to study abroad, and he left for more than a year.

Young Master Lu still remembers what Lu Daobang said to him before he left: "Hui Dynasty is now suffering defeats every year, and the people on the border are precarious and living in fear. Uncle, I want to become an official, I want to be a border guard People on one side. Even if the general environment cannot be changed, and even if my strength is limited, I want to try and try to do my best to improve the lives of the people on the border. I, the people of Hui Dynasty, should not live so uselessly."

Lu Daobang's bold words and lofty ambitions made Mr. Lu feel excited, and also made Mr. Lu confused.It seems that everyone has ambitions and goals, but he, Young Master Lu, does not.

At that time, Young Master Lu comforted himself, thinking, after the palace test is passed, the top three ranks come out, and he is accused of being an official, he may have a goal and ambition.But after the official pointed it out, Mr. Lu realized that he couldn't be an official, because he didn't have a family, a country, and a world in his heart.

Lu Daobang grew up with Mr. Lu, and he is most familiar with Mr. Lu's words and deeds.Seeing Young Master Lu's sullen expression, he excused himself by saying that he was a little tired after driving for a few days and wanted to go back to the hospital to rest first.

During Lu Daobang's study tour, his father wrote in a letter saying that his uncle begged his grandfather to dismiss him from his official position. He guessed that the reason for his uncle's bad complexion was probably because his study tour experience reminded him of the past.Recalling the past, Lu Daobang was also a little lonely.The study tour experience of more than a year is actually not as interesting and exciting as he said.

It wasn't long before Young Master Lu was depressed when he returned to Tian'an Courtyard, Lu Daobang went to Tian'an Courtyard with a jar of wine to mess with him. "Uncle, my nephew is here to honor you." Lu Daobang stood outside Young Master Lu's house and called out in a strange voice, clearing away all the growing troubles in Young Master Lu's heart.

"Just push the door open and come in. Standing outside the door is strange, believe it or not, I will complain to my sister-in-law." Young Master Lu opened the door and dragged Lu Daobang in.

"Believe it, how can I not believe it, you are the most proficient in doing this." Lu Daobang put the wine on the table, ate the snacks on Young Master Lu's table by himself, and wiped his mouth to comment, " Uncle, your snacks are delicious."

Seeing that a plate of dim sum was half finished, Mr. Lu felt a little distressed. "I sent a box of snacks to sister-in-law." The implication of Mr. Lu was that you should stop eating dim sum from me.

"Oh, give me a box too." Lu Daobang beckoned Zhaofu, "Zhaofu, wrap up the dim sum on the table. Bring me another box of dim sum and send them to my yard together."

Young master Lu drank a cup of tea speechlessly, and couldn't remember what was his motivation for going to the door to wait for Lu Daobang early this morning.Maybe for a little thrill.

He no longer looked at Zhaofu, who was summoned by Lu Daobang, but instead pointed to the wine jar and said, "Why are you bringing me wine? It's not like you don't know that I don't like drinking."

"This wine is different." Lu Daobang opened the wine seal, and a faint scent of milk wafted out.

Young Master Lu leaned closer to sniff it, and asked with a frown, "Kumumiss? Have you gone to the border?" The relationship between Huichao and Zhenguo in the north was tense, and the exchange with Zhenguo was closed after the capital was moved.Now it is only the merchants on the northern border who occasionally exchange salt and cloth for some leather and other things, and then sell them to the generals guarding the border.

Lu Daobang nodded, opened his mouth to say something, but couldn't speak, and finally just let out a long sigh.

Seeing this, Young Master Lu fetched two wine bowls and poured two bowls of wine.Lu Daobang took the wine bowl and drank half of it with his head up, he was no longer like Mr. Pianpian a year and a half ago.

"I thought I could go to the border to guard the people after I got the honor and fame, and I could go to the border to protect the people if I applied for the magistrate of Rong County, Ru County, or Wei County. But..." Lu Daobang rubbed his wine bowl, unable to continue.

The rhetoric is still in my ears, but things are right and wrong.

"Uncle, can you imagine that the people on the border are like walking corpses, without fear or hope." After drinking the wine in his bowl, Lu Daobang snorted, and then said: "It turns out that there is a little boy on the border. Small county magistrates are also fat servants, and the money allocated to resettle the common people every year has become their pocket."

Young master Lu didn't know how to comfort Lu Daobang, so he could only drink with him.

Before getting drunk, Young Master Lu vaguely heard Lu Daobang say, "Uncle, I'm going to join the army".
