Chapter 58: Wild Weeds

The disaster relief measures were carried out in an orderly manner. Nan Qiao was extremely busy all day long, and all kinds of affairs had to be handled by her, so she had no time to chat with Liu Chulai.

Liu Chunian heaved a sigh of relief. Occasionally, when he was in good spirits, he picked some things to help Nan Qiao deal with them. When he was in a bad mood, he rested alone in the room. Never mention it again.

Liu Chunian knew that he didn't care about what happened that day, and it hurt Nan Qiao's heart to some extent, so in recent days, no matter what happened, she followed Nan Qiao, but she quietly took advantage of her. Some suspect that her appearance is just pretending.

As for Qin Lian, even Liu Chunian couldn't give her an attributive conclusion, nor could he express his attitude towards Qin Lian.

Seriously speaking, Qin Lian is definitely not a good person, she is ruthless and will do anything for her own ends, but you just can't hate her.The reason why Liu Chunian still has a little bit of affection for Qin Lian is because she is another Qin Lian in a sense. If she completely denies Qin Lian, it is equivalent to denying herself.

Qin Lian had helped Liu Chunian a lot. Without Qin Lian's help, Liu Chunian would not have been able to capture the Kingdom of Wei so smoothly.Of course, it's not that Qin Lian hasn't done anything like stabbing someone in the back, but in the final analysis, kindness outweighs hatred.Liu Chunian is a person who weighs both love and hate very clearly. She already owed Qin Lian some, but now she turned around and confessed to Qin Lian. Although she didn't feel guilty, she still owed more.

And Nan Qiao didn't want to mention that matter because she finally realized how aggressive she was towards Liu Chunian. She didn't know if it was because of her desire to conquer too much. She always wanted Liu Chunian to treat her with nothing. hide.Most people are always greedy. At first she thought it would be enough for Liu Chunian to be with her, but after they were really together, she hoped that Liu Chunian could face herself wholeheartedly, and she could no longer tolerate other people in her heart. anyone.

People have the seven emotions and six desires, so they have demons overgrown, and it is difficult to control themselves.

Nan Qiao knew that this was wrong, but she couldn't help it, so she properly alienated Liu Chunian by dealing with affairs, hoping to calm herself down.

In a blink of an eye, the agreed day of "sacrificing to heaven" arrived.

Nan Qiao hadn't thought about how to comfort the people of Longyou, but when Liu Chunian mentioned the matter of Huguo Temple back then, Nan Qiao immediately understood the meaning of her words.At the Huguo Temple, Liu Chunian once said: "As an emperor, one cannot believe in Buddhism. It is useless. It is said that the Buddha saves all living beings, but that is false. It is just a way for the king to control the hearts of the people." It's just a means."

It is precisely because of such a passage that Nan Qiao prepared the present grand sacrifice to heaven.

Nan Qiao sent people to detain all the corrupt officials who were investigated and dealt with under the altar, and fixed the amount of silver they had embezzled, planning to set the "death line" according to the instructions of heaven after offering sacrifices to heaven ", those who have passed will die, and those who are deficient will stay to redeem their sins.As for where to set the line, it was naturally decided after deliberation and discussion between her and Liu Chunian, but it was just using the name of Jitian to make it more convincing.

After these days of disaster relief, the people in Longyou are finally getting better, and they are no longer in the original situation of being displaced and starving to death on the streets.When it was heard that Di Ji Nan Qiao was going to clean up these corrupt officials, the common people rushed over after hearing the news and surrounded the altar with water.

Nan Qiao stood on the altar, looked down at the people of Limin in Nanliang with pity in his eyes, and said loudly: "The catastrophe in Longyou is caused by natural disasters*. These days, I have tried my best to eliminate the natural disasters. The harm has been minimized, and now I am here to take care of this incident, so I can give you an explanation. When the natural disaster incident is eliminated, the sea will be clear and the river will be clear. From now on, God bless Longyou and Nanliang!"

As she spoke, she held the incense, bowed three times in the direction of the imperial capital, and then inserted the incense into the incense burner.She took the stick next to the incense table, closed her eyes and shook it, and a wooden stick fell out.

Nan Qiao leaned over and picked up the wooden stick, glanced at it, and then held up the wooden stick for everyone to see: "It is God's will - all officials who have corrupted more than 500 taels of silver and ink will be sentenced to death immediately, and the rest will be sent back to prison. Handle it after listening."

The soldiers were ordered to take away officials under 500 taels immediately, and then ordered the executioner to carry out the execution.

The streets were extremely bleak in winter, and the blood of corrupt officials stained the streets red. This was a terrifying scene, but it calmed down the victims who had been angry for a long time, and gradually dissipated the remaining unwillingness in their hearts.

"Frozen three feet doesn't happen in a day, and it's not something that can be done overnight." Liu Chunian sighed as he looked at the distant scene with his sleeves on his sleeves.

Nan Qiao nodded: "I've done everything I can do now. As for other things, I can only leave it to the new sheriff. I hope she can comfort the people this time."

"The position of the new sheriff has not been decided yet, and the vacant official positions in Longyou..." Liu Chunian turned his head to look at Nan Qiao, and said with a smile, "Do you have no idea?"

"As long as the person in charge is not Princess Renjia, it doesn't matter if it's mine or not." Nan Qiao met her gaze calmly, "What I want is not to hold Nanliang firmly in my hands." In my hands, it is not about seizing any power in the world. As long as the common people can live and work in peace and contentment, it doesn't matter whether I am the emperor or not."

Liu Chunian stretched out his hand from his sleeve, and shook Nan Qiao's icy fingers: "It's really a blessing for the people of Nanliang if you think so. Well, actually, I don't like King's Landing, if you can If that's the case, I'd rather visit the Eight Wastelands, and see those lakes and mountains, deserts and solitary smoke one by one."

"I'm afraid it won't happen for a while..." Nan Qiao put his hand into Liu Chunian's fox fur to keep warm, and took the opportunity to touch her slender waist, and sighed contentedly, "You can Enjoy the beautiful scenery of Nanliang first, and when Nanliang is completely settled down, I will accompany you to do what you want to do."

Liu Chunian glanced at her angrily, took a half step back uncomfortably, and threatened, "Diji Nanqiao, please take care of your own image, your people will all be watching."

"They can't see clearly." Nan Qiao didn't pay attention to her shy and timid look at all. Instead, she was a little aggressive. It wasn't until Liu Chunian couldn't bear it that he pinched her hard, and she restrained herself a little.

The matter of Longyou has finally been settled. The new governor of Longyou is a well-behaved official. Although he can't be pioneering and innovative, he still has the ability to resettle the people.

Liu Chunian and Nan Qiao will also be able to return to Beijing before the New Year. While packing their luggage, Liu Chunian finally remembered the matter that he had left behind, and finally freed up his mind to prepare for a good relationship with Nan Qiao. Do the math.

"I said..." Liu Chunian sat by the bed and looked at Nan Qiao with a half-smile, "Do you still remember the inn after you left the capital? The inn with very fragrant wine and very interesting proprietress?"
