Wearing a county magistrate to build infrastructure

"But it doesn't say how to get in touch. It takes a lot of time to send someone to investigate just the name. This..."

Xu Qingcheng frowned, no matter how he saw it, Prime Minister Yan didn't seem to be giving gifts, otherwise why would he make things difficult for Zisheng.

Tang Zisheng chuckled, surprised that his clever husband in the past couldn't get away with this matter, "Naturally, it's a test. Since Prime Minister Yan gave me the eyeliner that he has worked so hard for in Xizhou for many years, he naturally has to see what I have. If you don’t have the ability to get it, by the way, check whether some future son-in-laws are stupid, killing two birds with one stone.”

If he is a fool, if he is involved in such a big event as the rebellion, it will be more than a failure, and in the end it will involve Qingcheng.So after finding out his true ability, we can make follow-up arrangements.

"Then do you know what to do?" Xu Qingcheng followed nervously.

"There is always a silver lining in everything. Prime Minister Yan must have left me a clue, but I am not thinking about it right now. I will go through the list carefully in the evening." Tang Zisheng found a good excuse.

But there is no way to do this. He is not a native of the ancients, and his major is science and engineering. Many thinking ideas are difficult to fit with the ancients.Especially this one is still a smart person who is well-known in the world.

"I'll help you think together." Xu Qingcheng upholds the attitude of multiple people working together, and will definitely be able to come up with the clues secretly buried by Prime Minister Yan.

"What if we can't figure it out?"

"Then we have to use our trump card." Xu Qingcheng pretended to be serious, "Ask dad for help."

"That's a good idea." Tang Zisheng also thought so, anyway, if he can't figure it out, he will ask Uncle Xu for help.

Three against one, he can still lose, that only shows that the enemy's level is no longer in the same dimension as him!

Goo-goo—a sound from the abdomen interrupted their continuing conversation. Tang Zisheng lowered his head slightly and saw Qingcheng covering his stomach with his hand, "Hungry?"

Xu Qingcheng nodded with a reddish complexion, "Yeah."

I learned a lot in the medical hall today, and I came back a little late. In the past, they had already had dinner at this time, but now they have been delayed for so long, and they are already hungry.

"I'll go to the kitchen and ask Yue Niang to prepare dinner. You can call Uncle Xu and the others. I haven't seen you for more than ten years. There must be a lot to say. Don't rush this moment. Uncle Xu's body is still recuperating, so we can't mess up the time for eating. "

"Ah."

-

"Father, Mr. Shen, dinner is ready." Xu Qingcheng stood at the door and knocked on the door. Two people in the room turned their heads to look at him at the same time, which made him a little stressed.Sure enough, Zisheng should be called to come along with him.

"It's already this hour, it's really time to eat." Shen Ditang cried for a while, and now he has restrained his emotions, but when he heard Qingcai's address to him just now, he looked at Xu Yingle with some reproach, "It was agreed at the beginning , if you have children in the future, let them call me uncle."

Xu Yingle also reacted, beckoning Qingcheng to come in, "Young master is indeed like an older brother in my heart, and Qingcheng really wants to call young master uncle."

Being stared at by the two elders, Xu Qingcheng's head suddenly felt dizzy, but Zi Sheng had made it clear to him just now, and Zi Sheng also helped him untie the knot, and it was not as difficult as it was at first, "Uncle."

"Hey." Shen Ditang smiled gently, and took out a pair of mandarin duck jades from his sleeves, "This is my meeting gift, it can be regarded as my dowry for you. This trip to Xizhou has to be hidden all the way in a hurry. So better I didn’t bring anything with me, I’ll ask your father to send someone to deliver it again when I return to the imperial city in the future.”

"This mandarin duck jade?" Xu Yingle seemed to have seen it somewhere.

"It's hard for you to remember that this was originally a wedding gift I planned to give you and Yan or, but" there was no chance to give it away, Shen Ditang sent the mandarin duck jade to Qingcheng, "this mandarin duck jade should have been passed down by your father What is in your hands, now I will take care of it more and more, the marriage that we have not grasped, I hope that in your hands, I can firmly grasp it."

Xu Qingcheng held the mandarin duck jade in his hand, which seemed to be as valuable as a thousand pieces of gold, "I will."

Xu Yingle also looked very complicated, yes, they didn't grasp the mandarin duck jade that represents the marriage between husband and wife forever. Wait in a hurry."

"Ah."

When Tang Zisheng left in the afternoon, he told Yueniang that there would be another guest at home tonight.So the evening meal is also prepared according to one more person.

Cang'er County has just experienced a flood, and many shops have not opened yet, let alone flooded, and the vegetables in the fields are even uneatable. Now the food on the dining table is not very particular, and green vegetables are even rarer.

That is to say, Yueniang has the skill of growing bean sprouts, and she made them a few days ago, and it happened to be done today, to serve guests.

After all the dishes in the dining hall were served, Tang Zisheng sat on the stool, and when he heard the voices outside, he knew that Qingcheng had brought someone over, so he went to the door and waited.

After everyone was seated, Shen Ditang took a closer look at Tang Zisheng again, "When do you plan to get married with Qingcheng?"

"It was originally scheduled to be after the Spring Festival, but I heard that Prime Minister Yan is coming, maybe it will be earlier." Tang Zisheng counted the days, and it was only a few days before the New Year, but it was because of the flood that everyone hadn't slowed down yet. Worrying about the New Year.

"The spring season is good. This Xizhou disaster relief should be able to stay here for a month or two, and I can watch you get married."

When Tang Zisheng was thinking about how to answer the conversation, Xu Yingle started the conversation first, "Now that the flood in the county has not been relieved, it is not appropriate to hold a wedding with great fanfare."

"That's the reason. I came here from Shunhe Mansion, and along the way I met many people who did not become refugees because of the flood. It will take some days before the flood really subsides."

"Mr. Shen, can you elaborate on the scene along the way?" Tang Zisheng had received news from Zhou Nanchuan earlier, but it was all given by people in the county. Now he wants to know what the situation of the people along the way is.

"Yes, yes, but Qingcheng has already recognized me as an uncle, and you and Qingcheng are about to get married, should you also call me uncle?" Shen Ditang looked at Tang Zisheng with a smile in his eyes, obviously he recognized this nephew.

Tang Zisheng looked at Qingcheng in surprise, that's not what he said when we were chatting just now, why did you betray Qingcheng so quickly.

Xu Qingcheng lowered her head, didn't that be what her father asked for, it had nothing to do with him.

"Uncle." Tang Zisheng didn't have any burdens of thought, so he just yelled.

"En." Shen Ditang agreed, but this time there was no well-prepared gift, but he took out a brocade box, "I will give you the change of mouth fee first, and I hope you will have a good life in Qingcheng in the future. If you bully Qingcheng, I will give you money I can't forgive you."

"Uncle, he won't bully." Xu Qingcheng spoke for Tang Zisheng.

Shen Ditang turned to look at Xu Yingle, "I'm not married yet."

Xu Yingle naturally knew that his brother had given away his heart early on, so it was nothing to help Boy Tang.

"Uncle, don't worry, even if I make myself wronged, I won't make Qingcheng wronged." Tang Zisheng assured.

"Then I'll trust you for now." Shen Ditang gave the brocade box to Tang Zisheng, and then talked about the current scene along the way in Xizhou.

Unlike Cang'er County, which was fully prepared, the government offices of other counties did not take any measures when the heavy rain first fell, thinking it was just an ordinary rain, but who knew that the rain didn't stop for three days, and it was getting bigger and bigger.

At that time, the county government offices in various places realized that the matter was serious, but few officials in the small counties of Xizhou were really doing real work.

So apart from looking for the government office, I couldn't do anything else. Later, the water rose so much that it could even flood the county town, so the Xizhou General Soldier brought people over.

It's just that everything was prepared in a hurry and the response was not timely. In the end, most people were washed into the water.

"I came all the way to walk the official road, but the official road was also flooded before. On the road, I met many people whose houses were destroyed by the flood and could not survive without food. They were rushing to the government office. I must have heard that The imperial court sent people over to provide relief and find a way out.

There are also some people who were lucky when the flood came, and they were able to get by after the flood, but at that time, the flood was too late, and most of them were washed away by the water, and some were buried in the water, becoming a corpse on the road. People are also looking for relatives in the pile of corpses in small groups, but there is little hope. "

"What?" Tang Zisheng's expression changed when he heard that the corpse was still on the road, and even a living person was going to identify the corpse.

"What's wrong?"

"Since the Xizhou General Soldier sent people to the counties to help, didn't they send people to burn the corpses after the flood?"

Floods have occurred in all dynasties, not to mention how to deal with them after the floods after the lessons left by the predecessors. He doesn't believe that the Xizhou General Soldier can't even think of this.

"All the way along the way, I saw many people rummaging through various corpses, probably hoping to let their families rest in peace. On the way, I also saw some people dressed as officers and soldiers. They were collecting corpses. But they didn't take them to be burned, but It is to transport the corpse back to the county to see if there are relatives to claim it, what is the particularity?"

Shen Ditang has never experienced floods, even if he has read poetry and books, he is far from agricultural natural disasters.

So I don't know the inside story, not to mention how people are willing to burn the corpses of their relatives now that it is safe to burrow into the ground.

"The corpses that have been soaked in water may be sick for a long time. This is the reason why they are sick for a long time after being flooded." Tang Zisheng was very angry when he heard that.This is helping the evildoers.

"Isn't that so?" Shen Ditang understood the power of this explanation.

"Qingcheng, you eat first. This matter is very important. I have to deal with it first." Tang Zisheng put down his chopsticks and left the mansion. He believed that Prime Minister Yan must not know about this matter, so he must inform Prime Minister Yan as soon as possible.

Haitang is the only one who can contact Prime Minister Yan now. He wants to go to Zhou Nanchuan's mansion. If Mr. Shen's words are true, there is a high possibility that someone has contracted the disease in these days.

Now the villages have basically settled down, and the soldiers guarding the villages have returned to the barracks one after another. He needs to send more people to the various gates in Cang'er County, and at the same time, he has to prepare herbal incense for epidemic prevention at the gates.

Even if there is a real epidemic, as long as there is no source of infection in Cang'er County, he can keep the place safe.

-

"Haitang, how long will it take to send a letter to Prime Minister Yan?"

"Use pigeons for one day."

"Is it safe to use carrier pigeons recently?" Nowadays, many people can't eat, and they will definitely pay attention to the birds and beasts on the mountain. The carrier pigeons are likely to be eaten by extremely hungry people.

"It's safe. The homing pigeons trained from Cang'er County to Shunhe Prefecture all take the desolate road. Even though many people are active in the mountains now, they should not dare to enter the deep mountains."

"That's good. I have an urgent letter that needs to be delivered to Prime Minister Yan. The sooner the better."

"I'm going to fetch the pigeons right now." Although Haitang didn't know what it was, but Mr. Tang had to go there at this time, it must be a serious matter.

"Where is your study? Lend it to me."

Zhou Nanchuan led to the study, "What happened to you again, so urgent?"

"Slower, Xizhou may be going through an epidemic."
