MTL - Peerless-Chapter 132
Chapter 132
"Rong Yushi, if Guan Shanhai didn't arrive in time today, are you prepared to end your life with this method of death?"
In the face of Rong Qing's submissive submission, Cui did not go home instead of appeasing, but instead uttered such a sentence.
Rong Qing froze.
"It won't be long before everyone knows that Rong Yushi was ordered to come to inspect the disaster, but he failed to succeed. The officials in Guangqian County were so distressed that even Yushi was drowned by the flood. This just proves the severity of the disaster. Guangqian The county therefore gets more food, and you, Rong Qing, will become the first unexplained death in the history of the Great Sui Dynasty, "Cui did not pause for a moment, and smiled at Rong Qing with a smile," and smile. "
Rong Qing finally knew why he didn't like this Zuo Yueshi.
Because when the other party talks to him, they are always insinuating and there is something in the words. The words just now seem to ridicule him, but in fact it seems to have no meaning. If Rong Qing cannot figure it out, the other party will never explain it.
Some people can talk about it if they have known each other for a long time, but Rong Qing is sure that no matter how many times she sees Cui, she will not develop a good impression.
This man is too mean and self-righteous. With the favor of the queen, his eyes are higher than the top, and no one looks down.
Rong Qing said with patience: "I know that this time I will take a step forward, and I will be disrespectful to you, but it will make you unhappy. ! "
Cui didn't go and answered politely: "So you almost died."
Rong Qing stood tall and straightened up: "If the envoy of Cui Zun is unwilling to talk well, then Rongmou will leave first. I will repay him for his life-saving grace. This time in Guangqian, let's go our separate ways!"
He is also a hard-hearted person, and since he feels that he is right, he naturally does not want to continue to be angry here.
Cui didn't lift his finger slightly.
Before Guan Shanhai realized his meaning, Qiao Xian had already drawn his sword out of the sheath, and crossed Rong Qing's neck.
"Let you go?" Qiao Xian said coldly.
Rong Qing laughed angrily: "I've been taught the hegemony of Zuoyue Bureau. It turns out that even the court officials, you all threaten if you want to threaten. It is no wonder that your colleagues in Korea and China are afraid of you. It's such awesome power, then you did it! "
Cui didn't go and looked indifferent: "You almost died here a few days after you arrived, and the news passed back. Your reputation for Rong's family and the merits accumulated by your father will be lost to you."
Rong Qing froze: "Do you know my father?"
Cui did not go: "Your father, Rong Qi, was appointed county magistrate in Youzhou two years ago. When the Turks attacked and plundered the city, they were not afraid, and would rather die, and eventually died before the reinforcements arrived. Your Majesty has mercy on his loyalty and will pull you into the Royal Palace. "
Mentioning his father, Rong Qing unknowingly lost most of his anger. He was silent for a moment and finally said: "In fact, in the past few days, I have found many things and found some strange things."
This year's rain is extraordinarily heavy. When Rong Qing arrived in Guangqian County, the heavy rain had been going on for ten days. He took another road. The terrain was higher, far from the river. The official road was just muddy. He hadn't reached Wang Yangze. To the point, but when he arrived in Guangqian County, he found that the disaster was severe and unexpected.
Within the area of Gwangqian County, more than half of the county seat has been flooded. Even the outskirts of Gwangqian County are inaccessible. The victims have flooded into the city, but Gwangqian County has a limited capacity to accept only part of it. People settled in the west of the city, let them work for their own sake, and daily carried silt out of the city to build sand walls, blocked the flood and continued to spread inside the city. Rong Qing also went to see it, and thought that this method was good. Not only did they accept the victims, And they are not allowed to do anything about it.
However, although the disaster in Guangqian County was resolved, other counties did not have such a competent county decree, the flood did not recede, and the food in the official warehouse was limited. Huang Lue hoped that Rong Qing could go to the court and allocate more food.
Rong Qing had this intention, but as a patrol in the royal history, naturally he could not only listen to Huang Lue, so he approached the county's Li Yan and asked him privately. However, Rong Qing found something different. After his repeated questioning, Li Yan finally revealed a little wind and let Rong Qing go to the suburbs to take a look.
With that said, Rong Qing turned his head and said, "The night before, I received a strange painting."
He asked Primary Six to bring the painting over.
The painting is not framed. It is simply rolled up. There is a granary in the center of the painting. Many people are moving grain outside the granary. On the left side of the picture is a man who looks like an official, serving left and right, facing the dishes on the table. By the way, monitoring the grain handling, the laborers are busy and busy.
On the right side of the screen, not far from the granary, there are hill-like corpses. The deceased are male and female, old and young. They fell to the ground in various postures, their skin is yellow, their pain is difficult, and some are dead. Now, some are still lingering, the man gnawed with one arm in his arms, like an evil spirit, and beside him, a young child with no arms cried and screamed, and blood was flowing all over the place.
If you only look at the left and the middle, you don't feel anything, but the contrast between the left and right immediately makes you feel breathless.
Rong Qing still remembered that when she first saw the painting, she was shocked by the unknown, and she remained completely unaware for a while, and then looked at Cui not to go. She only stayed on it for a moment, without even blinking her eyes.
Sure enough, the heart of the tiger and wolf, Rong Qing secretly.
"This person," he clicked on the official who was eating on the left side of the screen. "Guangqian County was originally Shangxian County. The county order should be from Liupin. In the past two years, due to the disaster, it was reduced to Zhongxian and the county order. The duty should also be reduced to Qipin, but the county magistrate Huang Lue has not yet reached the stage of his resignation. He is still from Liupin. This person is dressed in a scarlet official robe, without Liang Wuqi. Although he can't see his face, judging from the clothing, it must Huang is slightly correct. "
Cui did not go: "So you think this is someone who reports you anonymously after knowing that you are here, implying that the county magistrate Huang Lue, embezzled official food, and misrepresented the disaster."
"Good."
Although Rong Qing was excited, he still kept a little sense of reason. He didn't rush to Huang Huang for questioning immediately, but he couldn't sit still, and went to other officials in Guangqian County to give a side blow, hoping to ask something from them.
So when he asked Xianyan Li Yan, the other party talked endlessly.
Not only that, but Rong Qing also found that among several officials in Guangqian County, in addition to Li Yan, the county's Weiyi also had a conflict with Huang Xianling.
In a city of Guangqian, the three most important officials, the county magistrate, the county magistrate, and the county magistrate, were inseparable from each other. Each of them acted in a team game, and there was a shadow of swords and swords.
One day was not enough for Rong Qing to find out, but just last night, he received another painting.
Still the same paper, the same strokes.
Rong Qing unfolded the second painting in front of Cui Buqu.
There are no more officials this time, but the picture is even more appalling.
In the torrential flood, the broken tree was floating, the remains were exposed, and sometimes a black head could be seen, facing up to the sky, screaming in horror, and despairing on the paper.
A city can be seen from afar. Under the old tree on the hillside nearby, a man is kneeling on the ground and digging the soil with his bare hands. Several hands are pulled out of the soil, the carrion is half-falling, and the edges are white, like a hell. Floating slaughter.
Guan Shanhai stood aside and stunned when he saw the painting.
Rong Qing seemed to know why he was surprised, and said, "Yes, this tree is where I was trapped during the day. I was painting because of it, and I wanted to see for myself whether there really was this place."
The result proved that the tree existed, but before he excavated, the heavy rain caused the flood to rise rapidly. If Guan Shanhai had not appeared in time, Rong Qing would now have become a lonely ghost.
"Cui Zun should always know now, I have something for it!"
Cui didn't go and ignored the dissatisfaction in his words: "So, are you more suspicious of the magistrate Huang?"
Rong Qing bowed his head: "When I asked Huang slightly to go out for inspection, he strongly opposed it, and Wuxian Wei also avoided it. Instead, it was Li Yan of the county, willing to accompany me. So Huang slightly must have a problem."
Cui did not go: "Normal people will definitely oppose seeing the heavy rain and flooding. Why don't you suspect that Li Yan has no intentions and deliberately want to take the opportunity to destroy your mouth?"
Rong Qing spoke for a moment and retorted: "The county magistrate of Guangqian County is Huang Lue. Many things are still up to him. What does Li Yanyi Zuoren do?"
Cui didn't go coldly: "But this time, it wasn't just Guangqian County that was affected. Most of the county was flooded. If you were, I wouldn't be affected by these two paintings of unknown origin."
Rong Qing felt that Cui's failure to see him was definitely not pleasing to his eyes, and he deliberately made life difficult for him.
He was too lazy to go on.
Not much speculation.
"Tomorrow, Huanglue will invite a wealthy family member in the city to discuss the donation of food for disaster relief. He also invited me. If the envoy Cui Zun does not believe it, he can see for himself who is loyal and who is rape!"
Rong Qing snorted and walked away.
too messy.
There was a fog of fog around, and it was impossible to dial.
Guan Shanhai is used to fighting on the sand. He has never encountered such a complicated situation. At first glance, it seems like the distribution of responsibilities of officials at all levels, but it seems not so simple to think carefully. The court allocated so much disaster food. used up? Huang Xianling and Li Xianming are in a feud. Is Rong Qing used by them? Why did someone send those two paintings to Rong Yushi and wanted to lead him to find out the truth, or did he want him to die?
The more I think about it, the more headache I feel. Guan Shanhai is now very fortunate that he is a martial artist. He doesn't have to deal with these things, but he doesn't think that if Cui does not come, he will be able to break through the situation like a fairy.
But he knew that in order to catch up with Rong Qing, Cui didn't go down and cut the time he spent on the journey by half. The poor body seemed to be worse, but he didn't cry for a long time.
Although Guan Shanhai still didn't like this errand, his perception of Cui's absence was not as resistant as before, and he couldn't help but ask softly: "How do you know that Rong Yushi is dangerous?"
"Because here, Rong Qing is a knife. Whoever holds it can threaten others." Cui did not sigh suddenly, "Maybe we will soon see a hundred kinds of Rong Qing It's dead. "
what?
Guan Shanhai was at a loss, totally unaware of what he was talking about.
...
Rong Qing was also at a loss.
He was sitting in the garden with the city's wealthy and wealthy men behind the county magpie.
At the invitation of county magistrate Huang Lue, everyone came to the banquet to discuss the county's disaster situation.
What makes Rong Qing confused is that Cui did not go sneer yesterday. She sat behind him like a sheep today. Not only did he have a beard on his lips, but he also called himself Mr. Cui. He turned and became a close aide to him. .
The local scholar Shang Jia was very curious about this history of tolerance, and almost everyone came up to salute, and it was inevitable to notice that Cui did not go behind him, and there were many curious people asking a sentence or two. Rong Qing came forward to answer.
Rong Qing knew that Cui didn't want to conceal his identity, which was just what he wanted, because he didn't want others to know that Cui did not go to Zuoyue Bureau, and even thought that the court did not trust him, he also sent people from Zuoyue Bureau to monitor him.
It was just that he didn't expect that Cui didn't try to behave so fiercely, it was just like changing a person. When he was silent, he didn't really say a word, even his eyes became gentle and harmless, his voice was soft and soft, where is yesterday? Half sharp and sharp.
With so many guests coming, Rong Qing couldn't help paying attention to Cui's change. He found that most of the people present today were young people, or the eldest sons in the family, and very few of them came in person.
One of them was particularly eye-catching with a young man.
The other was about 20 years old, but he was a bit handsome. He heard that his family name was Li, ranking 14. He was still a distant relative with Li Yan from the county. Rong Qing also knew that Li Yan was originally a local and his family was good. The Li family was in the local area. Even the entire Guangqian County is a famous family.
Li Shishi came with his cousin, that is, the eldest son of Li Jiayu, but compared with the courage of his cousin, Li Shishi is much more active. He not only toasts everywhere, but also loves to come forward with Rong Qing. Regardless of the rudeness, he asked Dong Wenxi, and he was quite interested in Cui Buqi beside Rong Qing.
"I heard that Mr. Cui is from the Southern Dynasties? If you do n’t stay in the Southern Dynasties as an official, how did you come to the Northern Dynasties? What kind of scenery in the Southern Dynasties, do you really spend everywhere in the mountains, rivers, and rivers?"
Li Shijie stretched his neck and almost met Cui Bugo. If he was not annoying as a teenager, he wrote with curiosity on his face, and now he was afraid to be reprimanded.
Cui didn't chuckle and smiled: "It's not something I want to be an official. I can't do anything about it. I can only come to rely on relatives in the north. Fortunately, Rong Yushi doesn't think I'm useless, and leave me. Help to copy the documents. As for the scene you said, Cui feels that there is no difference between mountains and water in the north and south. "
"Oh, Mr. Cui, your wrist is so detailed!" Li Shixiang found something new, and he refused to let go of Cui's wrist.
"I heard that the South people are very good at the south wind, and they are even more weird. They are specifically for older people. With your appearance, shouldn't they be caught by such people, and then they ran to the north to take refuge? "
