I am the county magistrate in Daming

Chapter 79 The Flood Comes

Five days later, the convoy traveled through Guangzhou and arrived at Wutou.

The situation here is not optimistic, before reaching the gate of the city, the victims on the road have already blocked Mu Qingtian's carriage.

"Everyone, don't grab it! What's in the box is medicine, not food!!"

Mu Qingtian, supported by Zhu Jingshou, stood on the roof of the carriage, and had no choice but to take down the people below.

"Liar!"

"The government has food, but they don't want to send it to us!!"

Several leaders were strong, grabbed the four corners of the carriage and began to shake it.

The disaster victims next to them swarmed up, imitating their actions, and began to slam into the carriage, trying to get the two people on it down.

Mu Qingtian couldn't stand steadily, so he could only lean on Zhu Jingshou.

He Quezhu hid in another carriage, covered her ears and closed her eyes and kicked wildly.Her voice attracted more people, their eyes lit up, they scrambled to squeeze into the carriage, and stretched out their greasy hands to touch He Quezhu's calf.

After Qian Duoduo heard He Quezhu's scream, he asked Xiaoyi to guard the medicinal materials, and stepped on the heads of the wicked people to He Quezhu's carriage.

……

He Quezhu kicked one foot, broke several bones from kicking, was squeezed into the entrance of the carriage, either advancing or retreating, and could only hold hands and howl.

"My hand! My hand!"

"ah!!"

"My finger is broken!"

"ah!!!!!"

"Stop screaming!" the refugees shouted angrily in unison.

Without mercy, Qian Duoduo kicked out the people in front of the carriage one by one, and even cut off a person's hand.

"The government has killed people!" The crowd burst into shouts.

The refugees around the car did not dare to move forward, but retreated a little, still staring at it.

With tears in his eyes, He Quezhu rushed over to hold Qian Duoduo's waist and cried loudly.

"Woooooooooooooooo scared me to death."

Qian Duoduo looked at the person whose hand was kicked off by He Quezhu blankly, put his hand on the little girl's head, and said.

"Don't be afraid, adults are here."

With He Quezhu on his back, Qian Duoduo abandoned the carriage and went back to the medicinal material box to join Xiao Yi.

"There's something tricky in it."

On Mu Qingtian's side, Zhu Jingshou flashed his sharp sword and flew into the crowd, beheading several people.

"Those who block the carriage, beheaded."

Zhu Jingshou stood indifferently in the crowd, forming a circle with a radius of three feet and no one around him.

"Qing, King Qing kills people without blinking an eye."

"What? He is King Qing!"

The victims whispered and looked at Zhu Jingshou with hatred, but they didn't dare to go forward as before.

They are all mobs, and by taking advantage of the large number of people to intercept the passing convoy, if they really meet someone who is not easy to mess with, no one will stand out first.

Mu Qingtian took a breath, and Gu Fan also cleared the way, leading the soldiers to protect the carriage.

Not far away was the clash of armor and the sound of horseshoes. Mu Qingtian squinted his eyes and looked into the distance, and saw the flags of Guangzhou Mansion and Wutou County.

"Master Gu, bring me down."

Gu Fan didn't want to touch Mu Qingtian, so he moved the box out of the carriage and stepped on Mu Qingtian's feet.

It was the Wutou government and the officers and soldiers who maintained order in the city.

When the county magistrate of Wutou County came, he was still in high spirits, and with a wave of his hand, the officers and soldiers behind him arrested the leading refugees. □□Swords, the victims behind naturally retreated, revealing the official road that has been changed beyond recognition.

County Magistrate Sun walked quickly to the front carriage, knelt down and kowtow respectfully.

"My lord and the imperial envoy are frightened, and I will die as an official!"

It was quiet in the carriage, and Mu Qingtian in the carriage did not speak to him, and looked at him coldly.

Cold sweat broke out on the forehead of County Magistrate Sun, thinking that the prince was angry.He stood up on his own, and scanned the outside - only one person was still standing.

"Bold! When you see the prince and the imperial envoy, don't kneel down!"

Zhu Jingshou withdrew his sword and patted the dust on his hands.

"I see you as the mastermind behind the scenes, come here, let me take it down!"

Gu Fan couldn't stand it any longer, he moved his knife forward and said, "Please get in the car, my lord!"

"My lord, my lord??"

County magistrate Sun immediately changed his face, threw himself at Zhu Jingshou's feet and knelt down, obsequiously flattering him.

"The lower officials have eyes but no eyes, the prince atones for his sins."

Zhu Jingshou looked around and found a few "disaster victims" who were obviously guilty, and turned to County Magistrate Sun and said.

"What are you going to do with these people?"

County magistrate Sun hurriedly said: "Of course, torture is used, severely! They dare to intercept the official way at such a difficult time, they really deserve to die!"

"Without permission, how could they think of intercepting the official way?" Mu Qingtian pushed aside the officers and soldiers of Wutou and walked to the front.

County magistrate Sun has no brains at all, he is an idiot, and he doesn't reflect on Zhu Jingshou's lesson.

"I'm doing things, what are you talking about, a servant!"

After finishing speaking, he smiled flatteringly at Gu Fan and said, "You're right, my lord imperial envoy."

Mu Qingtian now understands why Wutou was the most affected.Not only natural disasters, but also man-made disasters.

Gu Fan was also speechless, but for the sake of the common people, he let go of his prejudices and said to Mu Qingtian, "My lord, please allow Gu Fan to arrest the magistrate of Wutou County."

"Master Imperial Envoy!" County magistrate Sun rolled his eyes and turned around on his knees.

Zhu Jingshou kicked County Magistrate Sun away and escorted Mu Qingtian back to the carriage.

"From now on, the affairs of Wutou will be taken over by the king and the imperial envoy."

Those strong men who took the lead in the charge were stunned, and all began to beg for mercy.

"My lord, the younger ones have the old and the younger ones, my lord is merciful!!"

"My lord, please forgive me, Caomin's mother has been hungry for several days, Caomin has no choice but to go this way, my lord!!"

County magistrate Sun was deprived of power, and he was full of resentment in his heart, angrily said: "If you continue to quarrel, you will be executed!"

"Kill what!" Mu Qingtian lifted the curtain of the car and said impatiently, "Let them all go."

"This, this, my lord, they can't stay." County Magistrate Sun broke out in cold sweat.

Mu Qingtian ordered a few people to come out, and said, "These are the ones who can't be kept."

At first glance, the strong men rocking the carts were the ones who were responsible for the incident, and they were out of tune with the yellow and emaciated victims around them, so they obviously ate well.

But if you think about it carefully, before every commotion, there are always a few familiar voices in the crowd.They first said "the government killed people" and then "King Qing killed people". They even spread the word that there was a woman in the carriage.

As early as in the carriage, Mu Qingtian had seen the situation clearly, and he only got on the carriage to find out who was instigating the disaster victims.It was several of them that Zhu Jingshou beheaded just now.

Qian Duoduo and Xiaoyi were also very smart, they didn't hurt innocent people, and they managed to find several of them.

"Report-"

In the dim stone room, a burly man ran in—it was one of the people who had just rushed into the carriage.

"Is the imperial envoy entering the city?"

"Yes, not only entered the city, but also seized the power of the dog officer."

"How is our brother?"

The brawny man smiled sullenly, and said, "Don't worry, Master, King Qing and the imperial envoy were caught in the trap, and they really didn't attack our people."

"Very good!" Chi Zhongrong slammed the table, stood up and said cheerfully: "When the flood is over, it's time for the brothers to go to Shuntian!"

"Go and help that dog official, except King Qing. If it's really not possible, it's okay to get rid of the imperial envoy."

The medicinal materials go first, and the food enters the city later, which greatly relieves the pressure on Wutou.

Mu Qingtian stood at the gate of the city, anxiously estimating the water level of the moat.

"Master Imperial Envoy, the water has decreased a lot in the past few days, and the natural disaster must be over soon."

County magistrate Sun was dismissed, and the task of entertaining Mu Qingtian and Zhu Jingshou fell to the county magistrate.

The ancients didn't know the existence of underground rivers, let alone what the sudden drop in water level during the flood period indicated.

The underground river is saturated, and Wutou is located in the lower reaches of several rivers. If there is another heavy rain, the city will be flooded in an instant.

"How many dams are there outside the city?"

"My lord, there are three buildings on three sides, and the biggest one is about to be filled in." The county replied.

Mu Qingtian nodded.There is still time to strengthen these four dams to resist flooding.

The county magistrate Sun has kept himself safe these days, honestly assisting Gu Fan in distributing food, organizing the victims to register into the city, and going to different clinics to get medicine according to their numbers.

Mu Qingtian personally supervised the work. In order to speed up the progress, Gu Fan took off his armor, carried sandbags and joined the team of strengthening the dam.

Gu Fan was born majestic, with muscles all over his body, exuding attractiveness all the time.

Zhu Jingshou came over and covered Mu Qingtian's eyes, jealously said: "What's so interesting about him, he's a martial artist."

Mu Qingtian helplessly pulled down the hand of his jealous king, and said, "Where am I looking at him? I'm looking at the people next to me."

There are many people who tell Gu Fan that they are close, and even more recommend their own daughters.A few days passed, and the number of girls who came to deliver meals doubled.

"Brother Gu, this is a purse I showed off with my own hands, and I give it to you."

Gu Fan was so annoyed that he raised his head and said, "My wife's embroidery is much prettier than yours."

"It's a madam, shameless." Mu Qingtian didn't like Gu Fan, and shook his head, "Talk about liking, attracting bees and butterflies all day long."

If Liu Duan knew, he could not sever the relationship between father and son on the spot.

Zhu Jingshou's heart skipped a beat, why did he feel that Qingqing was pointing fingers at Sang and scolding Huai?

Just a few days before the dam was reinforced, Wutou, which had been shrouded in dark clouds for a long time, actually cleared up.The sun was hanging high in the sky, a good sign that the flood would stop!

Everyone is praying that there will never be any more rain.But God is always unsatisfactory.

Everyone's expectations were in vain. The day after the main dam was filled, a heavy rain swept across the entire Guangzhou government.

The sound of the rain overshadowed everything, Mu Qingtian walked out of the room wearing a bamboo hat, and shouted at the county magistrate: "How is the water level!"

The rain all over his face could not hide the despair in the county's eyes.

"My lord, it has risen, one foot, one foot in half an hour..."

"Where are you going?" Zhu Jingshou grabbed Mu Qingtian's arm.

"I have to go to the dam." Mu Qingtian was surprisingly calm at this moment.

He has faced this situation before. As an imperial envoy, what he needs to do most now is to observe the flow and velocity of each river, and estimate which dam will bear the greatest pressure.

"It's too dangerous, I'll go."

Mu Qingtian met Zhu Jingshou's eyes, and just looked at him steadily.

"I'll go with you."

Zhu Jingshou hurriedly took the coir raincoat, took Mu Qingtian's hand, and rushed into the rainstorm together.

Gu Fan and Liu Duan also came. Liu Duan is good at precision calculations, so he will come out to help Mu Qingtian no matter what.

"My lord, let's go." Liu Duan's face was pale, but his eyes were piercing.

With moist eyes, Mu Qingtian patted his shoulder heavily.

"Thank you."

In the past, he was alone, but now he is supported by countless people behind him, as his backing.

The dams in the east, west and south have no problems for the time being, and the main dam shows no signs of collapse.

Liu Duan quickly calculated the rising speed of the water, and concluded that the east dam is currently the fastest flowing, and it is likely to usher in a big shock.

"My official and the prince guard the east, you and Mr. Gu go to the west, the county magistrate guards the south, Xiao Yi goes to the main dam, did you hear me?"

"Yes!" We all share the same hatred, and we must defend Wutou City.

Mu Qingtian supported Zhu Jingshou's arm and walked to the highest point of the dam, commanding the officers, soldiers and common people to reinforce the dam.

"Break!"

The author has something to say: Chi Zhongrong is not a deputy cp, but a character in the plot and a real person in the Ming Dynasty.

small theater:

He Quezhu: It's born, it's born!

His Royal Highness Prince Qing, who had just returned from the emperor's brother, sneaked into the palace in one fell swoop.

Zhu Jingshou: Who gave birth, male or female, and the princess!Is the princess okay? !

In the blink of an eye, Zhu Jingshou had already thought of the issue of protecting the big and the young.

Until Mu Qingtian came to him holding the little piglet.

Oh, it turned out to be Peanut.
