Chapter 239
Although they drove fast all the way, the two of Luo Yan barely managed to enter the county town before the sun set.
Lantian County at night is not as lively as Zhoucheng, and many shops on the main street have already closed.The few with lights on are those teahouses and inns.Of course, everyone is worried about the drought in this season, and these places with lights on are not so lively.Pedestrians on the street were in twos and threes, but they were all in a hurry, obviously going home.
Horses were not allowed on the main street. After entering the city, Luo Yan and Ah Quan dismounted and walked.
Because I was really anxious, although I knew that Chen Yuru might have rested at this time.But Luo Yan still decided to inform Chen Yuru of the matter immediately so that he could be prepared.And he and Ah Quan rushed to Chang'an in the starry night.
The county town is not big, even though Luo Yan was leading the horse, it took only half an hour before he arrived in front of the county government office.As Luo Yan expected, the main gate of the county government office was closed at this moment. Although it was hard to see what was going on inside, there was no sound. It was obviously time to rest.
Of course, there was no need to bother Luo Yan about things like knocking on the door. He tied the reins to the hitching post, and Ah Quan ran over to knock on the gate of the county government.
"Tong Tong Tong" Ah Quan has not done much heavy work with him this year, but he still has a lot of strength.Although he was knocking on the door with a slap at the moment, the effect was almost the same as knocking on the door with fists.Before the voice called out the people inside, it attracted the attention of passers-by in twos and threes on the road.The night was not too dark, and if you got close, you could still see people's faces clearly.
No, there was a good person who deliberately moved his route to Luo Yan's side.In the past year, no one has seen anyone knocking on the gate of the county yamen at night. Now that they have met this once, if they get some detailed information, they will blow it up tomorrow.If you're lucky, there may be some big customers who treat themselves to finish their drinks.This person walked over with such a mentality.
Luo Yan was standing not far from the horse-holding post, looking sideways at the gate of the county government.When this person approached him, he couldn't help turning his head to look at him.
It's amazing to see this.The good thing is that this family is in the county seat, and whenever there is a big event, they must run to watch.It was only a year since Luo Yan left Lantian, and this person had seen Luo Yan several times.In Lantian County, Luo Yan is definitely a legend.Although it was a year later, people never forgot Luo Yan.This person chatted with others on weekdays, and he would brag a few times about his experience of seeing Luo Yan with his own eyes, which was even more memorable.
Now when Luo Yan turned his head, he immediately recognized it.
"Oh." He almost fell down in surprise. The man came back to his senses and bowed down immediately: "I don't want to be the county magistrate of Luo. Xiaomin greeted you as an old man. I haven't seen you for a year. County magistrate Luo is still so young. Let Xiao The people were delighted."
Those who brag about mixing wine with others in restaurants and teahouses all the year round can be considered neat.However, this compliment made Luo Yan a little dumbfounded.What do you call me an old man, am I really the youngest?What makes you happy to see me young?
But people's flattery can't be too high-handed, right?Nodding his head and helping the man up, Luo Yan asked: "How has your life been over the past year? Is there enough food for the family? Do you have any other money in your daily life?" Although there were not many questions, it was enough. It reflects Luo Yan's concern.I have been away from Lantian for a year, and I still hope that people's lives will be better than before.
"Returning to Mr. Lang, everyone has lived a good life this year. However, the drought started a while ago, and many people's seedlings have been affected. This year's harvest may be affected. But fortunately, in the year of Mr. Lang I have enlisted all those noble gentry before, so no one will dare to raise the price of food. As long as we can get through these few months smoothly, and if the imperial court is kind enough to exempt me from paying taxes, then life will be much better."
This person also has fertile land in his family, but they are leased to others for cultivation.Although the rent still has to be collected, but the harvest is not good, and he is also affected.What I said at this moment can represent the aspirations of many people.
"Don't give up on self-help at any time. Of course, natural disasters are ruthless, but human beings are merciful. On the way here, I saw many people carrying water for irrigation. I think as long as the crops don't die, they can always survive until the weather is good. If the harvest is not good, The imperial court will definitely not embarrass everyone. There are a lot of tax exemptions, and if the disaster is serious, it is okay to distribute food properly." Luo Yan is not telling lies to comfort him at this moment, but what he is going to suggest to Li Shimin to do.
Nodding his head, the man said, "I don't believe what other people say. But if Luo County Magistrate said it, I definitely believe it. Don't worry Luo County Magistrate, we will definitely do our best to keep the crops. Who would think that every year Go eat the relief food from the imperial court, that stuff can’t feed people. It’s better to eat the food grown by your own family at ease.”
After just saying a few words, many people surrounded Luo Yan.
When I left, I was too hasty, and the people in Lantian County only realized afterwards that I was transferred to another place.I just saw that this person approached him, saluting and striking up a conversation, many people became interested, they were overjoyed when they came closer and saw that it was Luo Yan.Not to mention running around to tell each other, the pedestrians coming and going were all pulled over.
The rush of greetings made Luo Yan a little overwhelmed.But after all, he is different from the people in front of him. Although the people are around, they deliberately distance themselves from him.So Luo Yan didn't feel too unbearable.Let's talk about people's livelihood, because the most urgent thing right now is the drought. Although Luo Yan is not in office, he has also said a lot of words of encouragement to encourage the people.
Not long after, after a lot of hard work by Ah Quan, the door of the county government office was finally awakened.
Maybe it was because of being woken up from a good dream, the door just opened was still a little bit tempered, cursing: "That family's life-threatening, don't you know it's dark now? What's the matter to hurry up tomorrow, and the elders have already rested now gone."
I have followed Luo Yan for a long time, although under Luo Yan's warning, I have never bullied others.But at this moment, Ah Quan felt a little angry when he heard the words of this disciple.The relationship between us has been ups and downs for so long, and we just waited for you to say something like this to get rid of it?So he said angrily: "Give me a dog's eyes to see clearly, Mr. Lang has only been away for a year, and you dogs just open your eyes and deny people?"
After being scolded like this, no one felt refreshed.When Menzi was about to curse back, when he looked up, the face in front of him almost scared him to pee.
In a hurry, he kept pleading guilty: "It turns out that Ah Quan is in charge. I was blind. I didn't know it was you who came. Please come in quickly, but if there is anything, please go to the side room for tea first, and I will call you immediately." County Magistrate Chen."
"Okay, okay, go and call the county magistrate Chen, and say that my husband is here to discuss something important." Ah Quan also knew that at this time he would not allow himself to be arrogant, so he prevented Menzi from making further apologies, and directly He said.
Menzi was also shocked, and regretted it all the time, but he didn't expect the murderous magistrate from his predecessor to come.What kind of bad luck did I have today, that I was so blind that I encountered such a thing.Alas, it seems that tomorrow I am going to burn incense and pray to Buddha to ask for some blessings, otherwise my life will have to get involved sooner or later.Pointing to the side room hastily, he said: "The county magistrate Luo is also here. Since the matter is urgent, then Chief Aquan and County Magistrate Luo will rest first, and I will go and wake up County Magistrate Chen." run.
In fact, Chen Ruyu was still asleep at this time.
Today, all counties in Gyeonggi-do are in general conditions, and the impact of the drought is too great.Many people sold their children and daughters. A while ago, Li Shimin spent all the resources in the palace to redeem the children of the people, so it eased a little.But this season is when the crops are growing, and there is a shortage of water.If it continues like this, there will be no harvest this year, how will the people live?
As a county magistrate, I must be worried.No, he was thinking of a way right now.
When I was in a state of ecstasy, I suddenly heard someone outside the door gasping and saying: "Magistrate Chen, go and have a look. The former Luo Lang came back and said he has something important to see you. At this moment, his master and servant are in the side room waiting."
Regardless of who was talking, Chen Yuru immediately stood up and walked out of the room. When she saw the door, she hurriedly said, "Hurry up, take me to Mr. Luo Lang. He's here, and the distress in my heart finally has the hope of being relieved." Hearing this, Menzi didn't dare to be negligent, so he immediately went to the front and brought Chen Yuru to the side room in the front yard.
When Chen Yuru came in, Luo Yan happened to be taken to the side room by Ah Quan.The people were too enthusiastic, Luo Yan also spent a lot of effort to squeeze out from the crowd.If Ah Quan hadn't said that Luo Yan had something important to discuss with their magistrate Chen, Luo Yan might still be surrounded by the crowd at this time.
Chen Yuru entered the door and shouted: "Mr. Lang, I've been looking forward to you. These days I have been frowning, thinking that if Mr. Lang is still in Lantian, I don't have to worry about it. You come here, I am so worried. It’s really raining from the sky.”
The polite words made Luo Yan laugh, and after meeting with Chen Yuru, Luo Yan motioned him to sit down, and then he opened his mouth and said: "Come here this time, maybe I am not your Ganlin, but your Lieyang. To make a long story short, I deliberately diverted to Lantian to verify some things. I originally wanted to ask you in detail after I met you, but I have already verified it on the way. This time, I just want to tell you bad news. "
Hearing Luo Yan's words, Chen Yuru couldn't laugh immediately: "Lang Jun, let me tell you what bad news it is." The smile on his face changed from joy to bitterness, and Chen Yuru could only listen to what Luo Yan had to say.
No, the moment Luo Yan opened his mouth, his heart skipped a beat: "There is going to be a plague of locusts."
"What? Plague of locusts?" Chen Yuru jumped up in disbelief and exclaimed.Sure enough, the news was bad, downright bad.For him who was already distressed, it was no less than adding a heavy burden.
