I farmed in ancient times

"Water! A lot of water!" Li Xiurong suddenly sat up on the bed, and there was a soft quilt within reach.

Li Xiurong was stunned for a moment, then looked up, there was no bedcloth on the bed, it was obviously someone else's room.

Wu Yuan stood by the side, seeing Li Xiurong woke up, his face was overjoyed, and immediately knelt down on one knee beside the bed, "This subordinate has neglected his duties, please punish him!"

Li Xiurong's memory was pulled out of the water and returned to his eyes.

"Cassia! Where is Cassia!" Li Xiurong pulled back the quilt, stepped on the ground with his legs up, Wu Yuan quickly stopped him, "Officer, put on your shoes first!"

Li Xiurong stepped on his shoes, rushed out in a hurry, and opened the door. It was still raining outside, much weaker than before.

This small courtyard is familiar with the layout, it is Cen's family who comes to eat every day, Li Xiurong pulled on his shoes and rushed to Cen Jueming's room, he was indeed there.

Cen Chaoan was twisting the sweat towel with his small hands, wringing it dry and stacking it into a stack, and put it on his brother's forehead.

"Let me come!" Li Xiurong rolled up his sleeves, and when Cen Chaoan saw that he was coming, he immediately got up and angrily pushed Li Xiurong away, "Go away!"

"If it wasn't for you! My brother wouldn't be so seriously ill!" Cen Chaoan said, with tears in his eyes, he waved his fist and said, "Go away!"

Li Xiurong had a look of shame on his face, instead of leaving, he moved closer to Caesar Ming, "It's all my fault."

"As long as you know!" Cen Chaoan pushed Li Xiurong away, "Go away!"

Li Xiurong was pushed out of the door, turned to look at Cen Jueming, he was lying on the bed, wrapped in the quilt, his face was as red as thin porcelain, obviously having a high fever.

After half a foot out of the door came back, Li Xiurong said: "Let me do it, you are too young, do you want your brother to get well soon."

Having weighed several times between getting rid of the bad guys and letting my brother get better soon, it is more important for my brother to get better soon, Cen Chaoan pouted, "Hmph! I will forgive you for a while, and then I will talk about it when my brother gets better!"

"I'll go change the basin of water first." Li Xiurong sat on the chair, put on his shoes, and went out with the basin in his hand. Wu Yuan hurriedly opened the umbrella and propped it on the official's head.

Li Xiurong went to the well in the yard, holding a bucket and thinking about how to fetch water.

"Officer, let me come." Wu Yuan threw the bucket into the well, shook the rope a few times with one hand, filled the bucket with water, and slowly pulled it up.

"Oh—so that's the case." Li Xiurong stretched out his hands, holding the rope with both hands, and pulled the bucket up.

Li Xiurong washed his hands, drained the water from the basin, and replaced it with well water.

The well water is cloudy.

Li Xiurong sighed, the well water on such a high terrain was muddy, and he didn't know what was going on down the mountain.

With water in hand, Li Xiurong went to Cassia Ming's room, put the basin on the table beside him, and took off the sweat towel from his forehead while waiting for the muddy water to settle.

Touching Cassia Ming's forehead, it was hot and frightening.

——If he hadn't pushed himself to hide from the collapsed soil, Cassia wouldn't have rolled down the mountain, let alone twisted his foot and drowned in the water.

Looking at the sleeping Cassia, Li Xiurong asked without raising his head, "How long has it been since we fell into the water?"

Wu Yuan replied: "About an hour later, officials and Cen officials were found in the lower reaches of the Daoliu River, ten miles away from Damo Township."

ten miles.

How did Cassia hold himself in the water for so long.

Li Xiurong put his fingers on his lips subconsciously. In his memory, it seemed that Cassia was holding his breath against him. Why were his lips so soft?

Wu Yuan: "You woke up after being in a coma for half an hour, but when Officer Cen was found, half of his body was still in the water, so he contracted a very severe wind and cold..."

When he found the two of them, Jue Ming's hand held Li Xiurong's hand tightly, and Wu Yuan took a lot of effort to break it apart.

Li Xiurong: "How is his illness?"

Wu Yuan hurriedly replied: "Congenitally prone to wind and cold...doctors dare not prescribe harsh prescriptions."

He glanced at Juming up and down, "I remember he sprained his ankle, have you seen a doctor?"

Wu Yuan shook his head, "Never."

Impurities in the water settled in the basin. Li Xiurong carefully dipped a sweat towel in the water, wrung it dry and put it on Cassia Ming's head, then sat down on the side of the bed and lifted a corner of the quilt.

Caesar also changed into dry clothes, but he didn't wear socks, his feet were exposed in the air, only about an inch bigger than a palm.

Li Xiurong flipped one of them carefully, the ankle was slightly red and swollen, and if you didn't look carefully, you couldn't really tell that the ankle was twisted.

"Get the medicine." Li Xiurong stretched out his hand towards Wu Yuan.

Wu Yuan shook his head, "Officer, you gave all the wound medicine to Officer Cen last time."

—Oh, I almost forgot.

Li Xiurong's ears were flushed, he looked up into the cassia room, found a pile of bottles and jars at the corner of the table, found the medicinal oil, poured it on his palm and rubbed it against it.

Back at the bedside of Cassia Ming, Li Xiurong put his palm on Cassia Ming's ankle and rubbed it slowly to let the medicinal oil take effect.

On the third day, the flood subsided.

Shen Yan sat in the middle of the yamen lobby, with his feet soaked in the water, rolled up his sleeves, and expressed his feelings: "...The flood is raging today. Fortunately, the damage is very light, only more than [-] acres of land have been seriously affected..."

In the end, after the memorial was sealed, Shen Yan wrote another letter, between the lines, asking how the Li family was doing, and after sealing it, sent it to Bianjing.

The scope of the flood was extremely wide, and all parts of China were affected by the flood to some extent. The fields and houses were completely destroyed, and the people were displaced.

Disasters from all over the country were sent to Bianjing like snowflakes.

Yanhe Hall.

After the early court, the government summoned many ministers to discuss, and the Ministry of Industry organized manpower to repair the houses, and the Ministry of Households drafted a tax exemption report according to the disaster situation in various places.

The other ministries coordinate the labor and household ministries, and must control the emotions of the victims to prevent the common people from committing suicide.

After giving the order, the official sat on the soft chair, and the eunuch beside him hurriedly handed over a cup of tea at the right temperature.

Zhao Zhen drank it all in one gulp, and handed the empty tea bowl to one of the eunuchs.

The eunuch caught it and said, "Official, I heard something strange about the flood."

"Oh?" Zhao Zhen flipped through the memorial on the table, "What a strange thing."

Seeing that the officials were interested, the eunuch hurriedly said: "There is a village in Yangxian County, Bizhou. The canal flooded backwards, and other areas were flooded, only the villages near the reversed river were unharmed."

"It's not surprising. Someone saw the river flowing backwards into the reverse river, but it disappeared inexplicably in a place called 'Panshan', and that mountain had two auspicious signs this year." The more the eunuch said, the more mysterious he became.

It's really mysterious, Zhao Zhen has never believed in ghosts and gods, but this is quite strange, if it wasn't for the real manifestation of the gods, how could the flood that had rushed past disappear?

Zhao Zhen waved to the eunuch, and the eunuch hurriedly came over, bent down and asked, "What orders do you have, the official?"

"Look for it." Zhao Zhen pointed to the mountain-like memorial, "Look at the memorial reported from that place."

The eunuch was busy searching through a pile of memorials. After working hard for a long time, he was sweating profusely, and finally found the memorial from Yang County under the stack of memorials.

Offering both hands to the official family, the eunuch waited silently with his hands down.

Zhao Zhen opened the memorial, and found that this man's writing was elegant and elegant, and his handwriting was quite beautiful.

The content of the memorial is quite simple, meaning:

Huangsang, although our small broken county suffered from floods, the damage was not too serious. Only a few low-lying fields suffered damage, and everything else was fine.

However, if you insist on exempting our small broken county from taxes, we won't mind!grateful!

The signature was signed by Shen Yan, the county magistrate of Yang County.

Zhao Zhen couldn't help laughing. Floods are no better than droughts. How can the seedlings be soaked?In addition, the house was soaked, and the cost of repairs was enough for the people to worry about. Zhao Zhen raised the ink pen and wrote a small line: I don't care about the tax exemption.

Although he couldn't control it, the Minister of Taxation exempted Yang County from taxes according to the disaster situation as usual.

"Why is Jueming still awake!" Li Xiurong thumped the table, and the bottles and cans on the table bounced up and fell down again.

The doctor was trembling with fright, muttering, "I'm afraid, I'm afraid..."

"I'm afraid what!" Li Xiurong thumped the table, "Say it quickly!"

"Forgive me for my incompetence, I'm afraid I have to resign myself to fate." The doctor finished trembling, and while the dark-faced boy was still in a daze, he packed up the medicine box and slipped away as quickly as if he had oiled his feet.

Cen Daonian, who was standing at the head of the bed, touched Cassia Ming's face with complicated eyes, "Cassia..."

——Cassia can’t be cured?

Sitting on the chair, Li Xiurong thought blankly: a few days ago he was standing in the courtyard and said that whoever gets the persimmons on which side of the persimmon tree grows, he must eat enough in autumn.

Normally, Jueming often bickered with him, but now he suddenly became quiet, and he would never shoot himself in the head with an arrow without an arrow.

You should be happy, why do you feel a little lost in your heart.

Is it because Cassia saved himself twice?

Obviously he had a chance to let go of himself and swim to the shore.

Li Xiurong walked into the yard blankly, staring at the drizzle in a daze.

"Official." Wu Yuan held up an umbrella for him.

Li Xiurong lowered his head and looked at his toes, "When can we leave here?"

"The county magistrate has not received a reply." Wu Yuan said in a low voice, "It is said that it is an explicit derogation."

"I don't want Jin Shan to die." Li Xiurong said sullenly, "Can't we let him get better?"

"Officer, he is sick." Wu Yuan said: "It's not in the mansion, whoever you want to give birth to, even if you make a big mistake, you can save his life."

"Cassia!"

Cen Daonian's exclamation of surprise came from inside the room, Li Xiurong was taken aback, and after realizing it, he quickly ran into the room.

Cassia had already been helped up by Cen Daonian, leaning against the bed, looking around in confusion.

Cen Chaoan was at the end of the bed, his little face flushed with excitement, and he kept calling "Brother".

"Do you want some water?" Cen Daonian hurriedly said, "I'll go to the kitchen to fetch a bowl of water." '

"You you you!" Li Xiurong rushed to the bedside, "Are you awake?!"

Cassia rolled his eyes weakly, isn't that obvious, there is no need to ask.

Li Xiurong grabbed Jue Ming's hand, "Are you hungry? Yes, you've slept for three days. You should be hungry. I remember you left a piece of stewed meat in the kitchen..."

"Don't." Jue Ming withdrew his hand, his voice hoarse, "Eating so much greasy food just after waking up, do you want me to ascend to heaven earlier?"

"Quick, here's the water." Cen Daonian brought a bowl of water to the bedside, and Caesar held it with both hands, poured a bowl of water, and felt better.

Stretching his left hand under the quilt, holding the blue bead, a trace of coolness spread up his arm, and Jue Ming felt better, "Why are you all looking at me? Has the rain stopped?"

"It hasn't stopped, but the rain is as thin as silk, and it will definitely stop soon." Cen Daonian touched Cassia Ming's forehead. Although it was burning, he was already awake, and his words did not affect his sanity.

The most difficult time has passed, and Cassia will definitely recover soon.

"You're finally healed!" Li Xiurong grinned, and suddenly thought of the collapse of the house, the corners of his mouth dropped, "But my house is not good..."

"People can do nothing." Jueming waved his hand, "I am no one else, my head hurts."

"

Go to sleep, supper wakes you up. "Cen Daonian tucked in the quilt for Cassia Ming, and took Chaoan to the main room.

Li Xiurong also went out, the patient needs to rest and cannot be disturbed.

Holding the blue bead, Jueming fell into a drowsy sleep.
