Dao fruit.

"Brother Kong, you are being polite." Qiu Yan treated each other with courtesy, and did not show any abnormality. Meng Wei and the others secretly admired this self-cultivation.

But they don't know that, in Qiu Yan's view, whether the fate or reputation of the flesh and blood is a process of experiencing humanity, being able to get in touch with people with different psychology is a harvest in itself, so why take it to heart? superior?

After hearing Qiu Yan's answer, Kong Sanwei was taken aback for a moment, his expression was a little more solemn, he followed up with a few compliments, and finally said: "Brother Qiu, come here, I should be a landlord, but now that the country is in crisis, how can I do it?" For personal enjoyment, the imperial court doesn’t care about the victims and insists on sending troops, but the imperial envoys who were sent to relieve the disaster all had a vegetarian meal, making the situation even more corrupt, which is really heartbreaking.”

Qiu Yan heard that he finally got to the point, so he invited him to sit down.

"I am here this time, on the one hand, I want to discuss with Brother Qiu and confirm what I have learned. On the other hand, I want to ask Brother Qiu's opinion on the drought in Hebei." Kong Sanwei was not polite, and after sitting down, it was like this talking.

After Meng Wei heard this, he curled his lips secretly. From the faces of him and the other two guards, it is not difficult to guess the thoughts——

"This person really puts gold on his face and competes with Master Xiuzhuan? Xiuzhuan is the number one scholar in literature, and his books are classics. He led a group of slaves on the grassland to conquer all victories and win all battles. What kind of person is that? "

"He is an inexperienced man who has only read a few books. He said that he wanted to discuss with the lord and confirm what he had learned. It is said that even the master of Confucianism once competed for the master's calligraphy. Not to mention that after several trials, there are visions corresponding!"

"Ask about his views on the drought? A joke! He is a juren with no official position and no practical experience, but he looks like he is looking for advice from Xiuzhuan as a staff member. It's really ridiculous."

These thoughts flashed through several people's minds, and they looked at each other, and they could see each other's thoughts.They all sneered secretly.

but.Kong Sanwei naturally didn't know how many people were thinking, he himself was famous.Along the way, I traveled mountains and rivers with my companions, recited poems against each other, and when they flattered each other, they always took the rise and fall of the world as their own responsibility, and they had their own ambitions and ideals in their hearts.

For that matter.Qiu Yan's previous life was also ordinary, a simple ideal.

However, if you don't hear what's going on outside the window, you will inevitably inflate your ideals, lose the distinction between high and low, and do things that others think are bizarre.

This kind of thing was not uncommon in Qiu Yan's previous life.Many people don't know the hardships of the people, and they don't know the specialization of the arts, so they can give advice to the world, who can give up, and think that they are better than the masters, which seems inconceivable to others.But people who are addicted to it don't realize it, their words and deeds have overlapped with themselves in their delusions.

But after sitting down, Kong Sanwei recounted what he had seen and heard.

This time he went out to study, he intended to take part in the examination, because some things missed the date, so he had to give up, since there was no imperial examination, the compassion in his heart broke out, thinking of the severe drought in his hometown, so he rushed here, what he saw along the way made him feel furious.

Qiu Yan didn't care about the change of the other party's mood, but asked: "According to what you said, the hinterland of Hebei Road has been quelled by Lu Qinchao, and the disaster has been temporarily alleviated? Only in dealing with the refugees, there are some disturbances?"

The imperial envoy he was talking about was the imperial envoy sent to deal with the drought.

From Kong Sanwei's words, Qiu Yan had a general understanding of the drought in Hebei Road.

In fact, the first year of the drought was not that serious, but due to the negligence of the government, it did not prepare in time, and it will continue to worsen later.

In fact, the opposition in the court to this national war was due to the drought in Hebei Province. Many ministers tended to negotiate peace because they considered that the disaster and military affairs were logistical black holes. If one is not good, it will damage the foundation of the country. .

However, as the new imperial envoy took office, the situation was gradually opened up-before that, there were already imperial envoys, but none of them could make a difference.

However, this imperial envoy Lu changed the style of his predecessors. Although he also mobilized supplies for disaster relief, he severely investigated embezzlement and corruption, and imposed severe punishments.

After Qiu Yan entered the customs, all he saw was the northern scene of Hebei Province, and he was still in a blind spot of governance, which seemed serious.

"If Brother Kong hadn't mentioned it, Qiu would have almost fallen into the misjudgment of point-to-face and blind people feeling elephants, and regarded the situation in the front line of northern Xinjiang as the situation in the whole Hebei Province." Talking about the latter, Qiu Yan became emotional, "This Envoy Lu Qin seems to be a competent official."

This is what he felt, the gods are in Hebei Dao and there are no sacrifices to spread, even if they have some spirituality, they are only at the level of ghosts and gods in their hearts, and it is difficult to derive the legal domain, so he does not understand the situation in the Dao. In this case, it is very difficult It is easy to take what happened in a corner of the country as a matter of course to the whole area.

To put it simply, when I heard about the severe drought in Hebei and saw the situation in the far north, I felt that the whole of Hebei was a purgatory on earth. The war in Rouluo is undoubtedly a war.

But in fact, besides the disaster, there is a big reason for the tragic situation in northern Xinjiang. It is precisely because of the invasion of the grassland.

However, looking at the south of the Hebei Road, it is a different scene. It is worth mentioning that one of the important measures taken by the Lu Qin envoy for disaster relief was to select the young and strong among the victims and refugees to build water conservancy projects and provide board and lodging , pay wages.

This move was criticized by many people. The Kong Sanwei in front of Qiu Yan expressed his indignation at this, thinking that Lu Qinchao did not care about the power of the people and was a cruel official who wanted to stain his head with the blood of the people. In his description, the construction site is extremely miserable and can be described as a purgatory on earth.

However, Qiu Yan discovered a clue from the other party's description, that is, he did not mention that there was a death on the construction site, so it can be seen that what he said was different from the facts, and a lot of his own emotions were mixed into it.

This is not because of Qiu Yan's personal inclination and standpoint. According to Kong Sanwei's tone, it can be seen that he hates this work-for-relief practice. castigate.

In fact, the method of work-for-relief has existed since ancient times, and it can be said to serve multiple purposes. On the one hand, it can provide a shelter for the victims, and at the same time solve the problem of food and supplies.

on the other hand.Then the victims of the disaster can be imprisoned to prevent them from flowing and become refugees.

For dynastic rulers, large-scale floating populations.is a huge threat.It is the same as Qiu Yan's job in his previous life, in the eyes of ordinary people.Employment is related to income and life, but from the perspective of the ruling class, employment represents not only economic value, but also restricts the flow of young and middle-aged people.To maintain stability, compared with it, the economic value is the added value.

This point, ancient and modern, Chinese and foreign, no matter what rhetoric is used to package it, there is no exception, but the effect of publicity is different.

Except for these two aspects.Engineering itself can also alleviate disasters and rebuild social economy. In fact, many things in ancient times are the same as in modern times.It's just not described in the appropriate words.

Today, under the auspices of Lu Qinchao, the southern and central parts of Hebei Province have escaped from the most dangerous situation and can be self-sufficient to a certain extent. The method of relief.

However, in this kind of thing, the most feared thing is human life. Once someone dies due to work, someone will link the incident with disaster, impeach, reprimand, and abuse—the person who speaks is naturally more wrong than the person who does the work. less, thereby gaining the moral upper hand.

Therefore, from the fact that Kong Sanwei did not criticize the human life lawsuit, Qiu Yan can easily judge that the situation on the construction site is not consistent with what the other party described, at least not the kind of dark and bloody place. Even more evidence.

But as he talked, Kong Sanwei's words gradually shifted to the policy policies he had seen when he went to the post with his relatives, and he expressed some opinions.

"According to Brother Kong, if you are in charge of governing, are you confident that you can do a better job than Commissioner Lu Qin?"

"I don't dare to say that I have done better, but at least I know how the word 'benevolence and righteousness' is written!" Kong Sanwei said firmly, "Only by working for the well-being of the common people can we live up to this life!"

Qiu Yan smiled and didn't say much. He knew there were some things that he wouldn't understand unless he had real contact with them.

Human nature in the world is full of constraints. Some people are always full of ideals when they have not met, thinking that they can overcome difficulties and resist temptations, but when they really face and encounter obstacles, they often choose to compromise and retreat. Only the kind of person who wants to achieve the goal no matter what can stand out. Of course, this kind of person may not be a good person.

Seeing that Qiu Yan didn't answer, Kong Sanwei's eyes flashed with displeasure, and the words he prepared later would be useless.Fortunately, he still remembered the purpose of coming here, so he changed the subject of the conversation: "Brother Qiu is a sensible person. Seeing the tragedy outside the city, he should have been touched. He also donated a lot last night. It can be seen that there is nothing wrong with his reputation." Sir, but why not go further?"

"Oh? How to go further?" Qiu Yan asked calmly.

"It's like this," Kong Sanwei said solemnly, "I want to call on the merchants in the city to donate money and food at home, but I'm a soft-spoken person, so there will inevitably be many obstacles, and Brother Qiu is famous all over the world. If you come forward, they will You must not dare to cause selfishness, and spreading it is also a good talk."

"Young Master Kong," Meng Wei sensed something, and interjected, "Master Xiu Zhuan has some important business to do, so it's inconvenient to stay here, your suggestion..." This is true, Qiu Yan said this time according to the order After entering Beijing, the reason why the Meng family was able to pick up people smoothly was due to Qiu Yan's change of direction when he led the troops back south. This was the first opportunity, but how do ordinary people know these things?

"What is your identity? I'm talking to Brother Qiu, and you have the right to intervene?" Kong Sanwei glanced at Meng Wei, saw his attire, showed contempt, scolded him, and then said to Qiu Yan, "If Brother Qiu If you don’t want to, you can leave, but if the disaster victims outside the city know, Brother Qiu stands by and stands by, it may be bad for your reputation.”

"You!" Meng Wei was first belittled, and then he heard the threatening words, and immediately became angry.

But before he could attack, a familiar female voice came from outside the door——

"Kong Sanwei, you are still so self-righteous and obsessed with indulging in yourself, but this time you are too presumptuous. Do you want to coerce the people and threaten Mr. Qiu?"
