God-level Consort of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 666 Taking office
Censorship Desk.

As soon as Wei Zheng entered, officials greeted him.

"Master Wei, I heard that you sent the Second Young Master to Hu County?"

Wei Zheng nodded.

This happened only in the morning.

It's only been a few hours, and someone knows?

"Confused," the official said bitterly, "Master Wei, it's not that you don't know Du He's character. Du He has a bad temper and is mercenary. You hand over the second son to him. , I'm afraid I'm going to suffer a lot... Sigh!"

When other officials from Yushitai came over and learned of this, they all advised Wei Zheng to bring him back quickly, otherwise he might suffer a big loss.

One person, two people... the entire Yushitai people were admonishing, and Wei Zheng felt a little bit lost.

He decided to ask Fu'an when he went back at night.

No, let's not go.

Staying at home is fine too.

Not long after, Li Erchao's boss went to the Imperial Study to discuss matters.

Everyone knew about this, and advised Wei Zheng not to take any risks.

Even Li Er said: "Xuan Cheng, I know Fu'an's temperament, I'm afraid it's not a good decision for you to let him go to Hu County!"

This time, Wei Zheng completely regretted it.

After leaving the imperial city, he hurried back to the Wei Mansion, hurriedly asked the housekeeper, "Has the second young master returned?"

The housekeeper said: "Report to the master, I have been back."

"Huh? Have you been back? Did you leave again?" Wei Zheng frowned.

The housekeeper said: "Master, two hours ago, the second young master came back, packed his things, but left again. I asked him where he was going? He said he was going to Hu County?"

"not good!"

Wei Zheng's complexion changed, and he hurriedly asked people to prepare chariots and horses to drive to the Dream Group.

When he arrived at the Dream Group, he learned that Du He had left the Dream Group and went to Hu County to take office.

I'm afraid it's almost Hu County by this time.

The housekeeper whispered: "Master, it won't take long to go to Hu County, let's go after him and bring the second young master back."

Wei Zheng sighed, and said, "Forget it, if you go to Hu County at this time, you may be laughed at again. I hope the people of Fu'anji will have their own talents."

For a moment, Wei Zheng had mixed feelings in his mind, and he didn't know whether his decision was wrong or right.

……

The city wall of Hu County is far away.

The convoy stopped.

In the distance, a galloping horse came galloping, and the person on the horse shouted: "Wait for me, wait for me!"

Everyone in the convoy looked back.

On the carriage, Du He lifted the curtain and asked, "What's going on? Why did it stop?"

Zhang Jian patted his horse over and said, "Master, someone... seems to be the Second Young Master Wei!"

hooves.

hooves.

The sound of horse hooves came from far to near, and the person on the horse was Wei Shuyu.

Wei Shuyu was wearing bunts and carrying a bag, looking like a traveler.

He rode a horse and came to the carriage, wiped the sweat from his brow, and said excitedly: "Finally caught up!"

Du He was puzzled and said: "Brother Wei, you must have received my letter, right? The letter said that you only need to rush to Hu County before the day after tomorrow. Why did you catch up like this?"

Wei Shuyu showed a simple and honest smile: "I, I... I don't know the way!"

Du He: "..."

"Well, that's a strong reason."

However, Brother Wei is really human!
Du He rushed to Hu County to take office today. Originally, he wanted to bring the troops borrowed from the Six Departments along with him, but no one knew that no one was willing to follow him.

So he directly sent letters one after another in the name of the magistrate of Hu County, asking everyone to rush to Hu County before the day after tomorrow.

But Wei Shuyu is the most active one.

"Brother Wei's spirit is admirable. If so, let's go to the city together!"

"it is good!"

The convoy starts again.

Not long after, the brigade entered the county seat of Hu County.

I saw that the county seat was less than half the height of Chang'an City, and many places had been cracked and in disrepair for a long time, and it was afraid that it would collapse when a heavy rain came.

After entering the city gate, the streets were empty, in stark contrast to the bustling Chang'an City.

However, looking up, the alleys were filled with quite a few refugees. Groups of these people gathered together, huddled in the corner, dressed in rags, with disheveled faces.

Someone saw the convoy and wanted to come over to beg, but when they saw these vicious guards, they immediately shrank back.He must have been beaten a lot.

"Qiu Wanjia, what a crime!"

"This guy deserves death!"

Du He couldn't help cursing.

Ma Zhou nodded: "Qiu Wanjia has served as the magistrate of Hu County for more than ten years, but he has emptied Hu County. The most outrageous thing is that this guy tried to buy all the people's land, and the people depend on food for food. My God, if the common people lose their land, they lose their lifeblood and the foundation of their lives. They can only be homeless and displaced. In fact, most of the young and middle-aged people have already lived in Chang'an City or the surrounding areas. The rest, But they are all dragging their families, or women and children, old and young, if they can't leave, they can only wait here to die!"

Snapped.

Du He punched heavily and hit the carriage pillar.

"In recent years, Hu County has been free from disease and disaster, but after Dali Temple investigated the case of Qiu Wanjia, it found that there was no penny in the account of the county government of Hu County, and there was not even half a grain of grain in the granary..." Ma Zhou continued Said.

While speaking, the convoy had already arrived at the county government office.

It is said to be a county government office, but it is actually a few dilapidated houses.

It looks like it hasn't been repaired in three to five years.

Ma Zhou said dumbfoundedly: "It is said that Qiu Wanjia is a very upright official in order to show that he loves the people like a son, so the county government has never been repaired, but he himself has never been to the county government. My own mansion is on business."

Before coming, Ma Zhou knew that he had a heavy responsibility to follow Du He to Hu County, so he made preparations in advance and was fairly familiar with all aspects of the situation.

"Let's break it, as long as it can accommodate people, everyone, settle down immediately, light a fire and cook, and then start working!" Du He ordered loudly.

This time, Du He brought more than 30 people from Dream Group.

In addition to Ma Zhou, there are Zhang Jian, Lu Yuan, Lu Bu and others.

Everyone unloaded their supplies one after another, and got busy with their duties. Before dark, a little smoke rose from the backyard of the dilapidated county government office, and even if there was the smell of food, the county government office finally became a little bit better. angry.

Du He took everyone to dinner, and Du He called Ma Zhou and Zhang Jian into the house.

Du He said: "Since I promised my majesty to come down to be the magistrate of Hu County, I will do what I say. Right now, the most important thing is these displaced people who can't even eat. How many people are needed to prescribe the right medicine, and it is best to get a roster in a short time! I have to leave this matter to the old horse."

"This matter, sooner rather than later, I'll take people to the county to have a look!" Ma Zhou was impatient and couldn't wait for a moment, so he took people out immediately.

After Ma Zhou left, Zhang Jian said strangely: "Master, we don't really want to do good deeds without leaving a name? Any fool knows that the reason His Majesty is looking for you is because you have money. The group's money, used to help these people?"
