Lin county is more than 30 miles to the west of Lishi city. Liu he drove a carriage and carried Qian Li, and braved the heavy rain, soon came to the place several miles outside the city of Lin county.

Qian Li noticed that the carriage stopped suddenly. He thought it was coming, so he pointed out his head. However, he found that there was no one else around him. The only thing that caught his eye was the vast water waves.

Liu he said with some urgency and anxiety: "it seems that the river bank here has been determined, and the villages on both sides have been submerged. You and I can only walk on the hillside to find a place to settle down."

Qian Li Ben was also anxious and naturally would not have any objection to Liu He's proposal.

In this way, a general of the imperial court, an official, regardless of the pouring rain in the sky and the mud on the ground, threw down the carriage and ran quickly up the side of the hillside.

Fortunately, both of them grew up in a mountain village. They were not unfamiliar with the mountain road, and their speed was not slow.

But just after a short walk, Qian Li suddenly stopped and pointed his finger to a place. He could not tell whether he was angry or frightened.

"Lord, you see, people, people, no, bodies!"

Liu He smell speech, also instinctively stop the pace, along the direction he pointed to see the past.

At first, he thought that one or two corpses had been washed to the foot of the mountain by the flood. After all, such a sudden disaster caused so many people to die, and it was quite normal that bodies appeared.

But when he saw the distance through the gap in the forest, the whole man was angry!

It was not just a few bodies, but at least hundreds of them floating on the water.

The flood here has inundated the houses in the village, and most of the houses have only exposed one roof,

just now, the two people's line of sight has affected them. Those corpses are covered by dense roofs, so they have not paid attention to them. They can only see them when they walk here.

Liu he was furious: "what's going on! Is the magistrate here eating dry food? Even if the flood is terrible and the common people die miserably, we should not allow so many corpses to wander around and gather in one place. If there is a plague, it is not enough to take his whole family to death! "

"The Lord will not be angry. When he finds a place to be settled, he will be able to understand it by questioning him face to face."

Liu He, even if how angry, can only and Qian Li continue to step up the road. However, he was in a hurry at this time, so the faster he went, he could still keep up with him at the beginning, but he slowly fell behind.

Qian Li was about to shout out Liu He, but suddenly noticed something unusual.

He stopped again, looked around, but found nothing unusual.

Liu He also found the situation of Qian Li and quickly walked back.

"Daozhun, what's the matter?"

Money li shakes his head: "belong to below just hear what voice, but did not see what, perhaps be subordinate much heart."

Liu He nodded his head and said, "then hurry on. I'd like to see how the magistrate of Lin county can explain to me. The imperial court entrusted him with such a heavy responsibility, and Lin county was the second batch of dike breaking, but the disaster seemed to be more serious than the first batch of counties affected by the disaster. If such an incompetent person could not give a reasonable explanation, I would have to chop him up! "

With that, he turned around and went on his way.

Who knows two people just walked out a few steps, a few black shadows suddenly from the side of the mountains and shrubs in front of them.

Liu he instinctively pulled out the sword, as if in the face of a major enemy, but did not expect these dark figures to kneel directly in front of them.

Two people fixed eyes to see, it was a dozen ragged, unkempt people, they are constantly kowtowing.

"Please make decisions for the grassroots..."

Liu He and Qian Li look at each other in the face, not knowing why.

Qian Li raised them: "are you villagers here?"

Looking up, one of the villagers, who were in their fifties, said, "one of them is crying."

Qian Li asked, "what do you mean when you said you wanted me to make decisions for you?"

The old man said, "we just heard what the two adults said, and we knew that they were good officials who made decisions for the people. Therefore, we came out to ask the two adults to redress their grievances. The villains kowtowed to the adults."

With that, he took more than a dozen villagers behind him and knocked heavily against the muddy ground.

Liu He and Qian Li realized that there must be something wrong with Lin county. Liu he frowned and planned.

"Fellow townsmen, please get up quickly. This is the governor of Wuyuan County. He is also Qian Li, appointed by the imperial court and the general, who is in charge of the disaster relief and river management in Bingzhou for the time being

Pretending to be a subordinate, he stood up and introduced Qian Li to several people, which surprised Qian Li.

"Lord..."

He was about to ask something when he saw Liu He winking at him secretly.

Hearing this, a dozen people were immediately surprised.

"So you are the governor? Great, I'm waiting for help, help, quick, quickly call out all the people in the village, let's ask the money prefect to make the decision! "On a hillside in the north of Lin County, just like the hillside outside Lishi City, there are all kinds of temporary buildings and tents, and people come and go.

However, the difference is that the size of the resettlement area is obviously smaller, and it also appears to be relatively clean and tidy.

One of the buildings was filled with delicious food, including roast suckling pig, roast lamb leg, large pieces of beef, and wine in a silver wine pot.

More than a dozen people here, pushing cup for cup, not happy.

"Meng county magistrate, you still have a way to coax thousands of villagers into the lower lying Daliushu village and dig up the river bank in the night. In this way, the disaster situation in our county will become the most serious place in Xihe County, and the court will certainly allocate more money and food for disaster relief."

A young official said this matter with a red face. Thousands of lives were like ants in his eyes. They were not worth mentioning.

Another shorter official seemed to be eating a little bit too much, reaching out and rubbing his stomach.

"As soon as the relief money and food arrive, we will Burp They immediately fled to Jizhou. In the name of disaster relief in other counties, we have also raised a lot of money and grain, and will soon Burp It will arrive soon. We are sending so much money and food to Burp Give it to Yuan Gong, get promoted and become rich in the near future Hiccups... "

"Don't be too early. That money management is not a fuel-efficient lamp. In the past two years, he has actually been the governor of Bingzhou. He seems to be weak in writing, but he can't rub sand in his eyes. Now, after the news of the breach of the dike has passed, I think he may come to check the disaster in person, which is not easy to deal with. "

As soon as this person said this, everybody also thought deeply.

However, the Mongolian county magistrate is still a confident look.

"What are you afraid of? Don't you see the arrangement on the hillside outside? When I'm satisfied with my meal and wine, the county will go out in person, put mud on it and get some rain. Can't I cheat such a sum of money? "

When they saw that he was so sure, they were relieved.

"As expected, the magistrate of Mongolia is far sighted. We admire him. We admire him. We all respect you."

"Ha ha, you're welcome. It's easy to say, to say!"

Several people have just picked up the wine bottle and are preparing to drink it all at once when a figure suddenly rushes in.

The county magistrate was summoned.

"What's the matter? Don't you see I'm talking to all the adults about something important? What kind of prudence

The man who came in with a face of grievance and anxiety said, "villain is really, there is something important to report..."

An official said: "the magistrate of Mengxian doesn't have to be angry with a little yamen servant. He can't make it. It's not too late to listen to him

The county magistrate of Mongolia has just relaxed a little.

"Hum, if you didn't look at Yang Xiandi, you would be beaten to pieces today. Why are you in such a hurry? Tell me

The servant, though aggrieved and angry in his heart, was helpless.

"Go back to the county magistrate, Qian Li, the governor of Qian has arrived."

"What!"

All of them stood up in an instant.

The wine bottles of Mongolian county magistrate fell to the ground.

"How could it be so quick? Is it only more than three hours before the county sent someone to inform him of the breach? "

At this time, a voice suddenly sounded at the door.

"What? Did the magistrate of Mongolia not welcome the governor? "

After that, Liu He and Qian Li came in, but Liu He smeared mud on his body and face, bowed his head, and stood respectfully behind Qian Li, just like an attendant.
