Manchu civil and military bow down

Departing from the capital, it took three days and three nights to travel all the way.

As Jinzhou approached, the mountain roads became more and more tortuous, and the temperature became higher and higher.

On his first trip, Xu He's mood changed from the joy of completing the initial task to exhaustion after a long journey.

Moreover, Xu He, who has always been pampered and raised in the capital, almost spat out the first time he ate the buns made by ordinary people in Pingling County as a spare food. eat it.

It was hard, dry and smelly. Just from the food, Xu He already knew that the Pingling County he was going to would not be a good and rich place.

Definitely poor and remote.

It's just why the emperor sent him here.

Xu He was a little puzzled as he drank the water.

Send him over to suffer? ...Xu He, who felt that he had guessed the truth, took a bite of the cake viciously.

I always feel that his father has a hand in it.

It is true that Pingling County is poor and bad, and it is also true that there are all kinds of troublemakers.

Xu He encountered bandits on the way.

Pingling County has both mountains and water.

The water is bad water. The heavy rain in the past few days has flooded the embankment and destroyed many acres of land. The repair of the dam took decades of manpower and material resources, and there was no progress at all.

The mountain is also a mountain of bandits. Bandits have been stationed here for generations, intercepting and looting carriages and horses in the aisle, and occasionally going down the mountain into the city to set fire to kill people.The people in Pingling County are miserable, but the inaction of the previous magistrates has further fueled the arrogance of the bandits, and it has been dragged on until now.

He dared to publicly intercept the carriages and horses of the new county magistrate.

The bandits on Pingling Mountain had all heard that the new magistrate had an unusual identity, and they couldn't guess why it was so unusual. After all, the biggest official they had contact with was the prefect of Jinzhou.

Hearing that the magistrate of Xin County came from the capital, several leaders gasped.Drink, capital city.It must be very rich, and the carriages may be made of gold.

So they waited here three days ago, until now.

A voice finally came from the official road.

All the masters and minions were excited and excited, wielding axes, machetes, and sticks.

Jump out of trees and bushes.

The voice was as loud as a bell, across the middle of the road: "—robbery!"

Robbery!

The birds on the branches were startled, their wings fluttered and they soared.

The drivers who carried the sedan chair were tall and burly, with indifferent eyebrows and eyes, showing no signs of panic.

Xu He was eating melon seeds, and at first hearing the sound of robbery, he was a little surprised.

The guard standing beside the sedan chair lifted the curtain for him, bowed and said: "Young master, please get off the sedan chair first, some people need to be dealt with."

"Oh." Holding a handful of melon seeds in his hand, Xu He walked down slowly, spitting out the melon seed shells while watching the play.

The bandits originally only had money in their eyes.

Until the car curtain was lifted, in an instant, the eyeballs almost popped out of their sockets.

The brain is blank.

Round nails, light white hands, delicate wrists, beautiful and gentle as if they could be easily broken.

The red dress dragged across the green grass, and the pomegranate red trim on the green grass also brushed people's hearts.

The waist is slender, and above it is a beautiful neck. The black silk hangs down to the waist, without any jewels and jade decorations, it is already stunning and unparalleled.

The beauty is knocking on melon seeds, her red lips and white teeth are like a romantic invitation, her eyebrows are far away from the mountains, and her eyes are like ink. In the shadow of the patchwork of mountains and forests, she raises her eyes.

They were willing to give their lives to her.

Xu He spat out the melon seed shells, expressing his dislike for a group of bandits with shaky expressions and stiff bodies.

Tsk, these people have been harming Pingling County for many years?

The former magistrate of Pingling County had such a low combat effectiveness that they couldn't kill such a group of trisomy 21 patients.

After a long time, the leader of the bandits became more and more breathless, and his eyes turned red, "This time the money is left, and people can't let it go!"

The rest of the second and third heads also nodded, their minds were occupied by vibrancy.

Xu He: "..."

Silently knocked another melon seed.

Sand sculpture.

The guards who escorted him were all selected by Xue Chengyu himself, and they were well-trained Imperial Forest Army in the imperial city.

It is easy to deal with such a group of bandits who only rely on brute force and a large number of people.After a burst of sand and soil, there was the sound of bone fractures, screams, and harsh sounds.

When the sand and dust cleared away, a group of bandits fell to the ground, their faces were pale, and they were in pain.

As for the head of the family, they were held tightly by the guards, knelt on the ground, and looked up at Xu He with horror in their eyes.

Spit out the last bite of melon shell.

Xu He clapped his hands and stepped forward.

The head of the family was scared to shit.

What Xu He is more interested in is: "Don't you say a few harsh words before the robbery? For example, I opened this road and planted this tree. If you want to live from now on, you will save your life and money."

The head of the family didn't dare to answer his words at all, no matter how beautiful a beauty is, life is not important.

Xu He smiled, and the head guard next to him came over and asked him how to deal with him.

How can this happen.

Xu He glanced at the sky, it was still early, and it was very close to Pingling County, so he wrote lightly: "Tie it up and send it to prison."

Faintly hearing the guards addressing Xu He, the boss stared straight at his eyes, and his jaw was about to drop to the ground!

A face full of disbelief and horror——little son? ? ?Son? ? ?male? ? ?

——This kind of horrifying cognition forcibly suppressed the fear of being imprisoned.

It was afternoon when we arrived in Pingling County, the sun was hot and the heat was hot.

In front of the magistrate's mansion, a group of people pushed and shoved, standing on tiptoe, looking towards the end of the street under the sun.

Until a luxurious sedan chair slowly approached, the expressions on everyone's faces became tense, excited, and apprehensive. This county magistrate came from the capital, and his identity was suppressed by the top. They didn't know it, but it was definitely not. Ordinary nobles, after all, the word "capital" has already made them awe, and that is at the feet of the emperor!

"Hurry up, come! Come!"

The person holding the firecracker ignites it, and then throws it away, and the firecracker instantly slammed, crackling, so festive.

When Xu He arrived in front of the magistrate's mansion, he was almost so suffocated by the smoke that he dared not get out of the sedan chair.

He was a little surprised, and a rare bit nervous, feeling that he still had a lot of responsibility.

After hesitating for a while, Xu He lifted the curtain and got out of the sedan chair, and his dress fell to the ground. The beauty was like a snow sculpture made of jade, blinding the eyes of the elated crowd in front of the county magistrate's mansion.

Firecrackers smoke and dust.

The leading teacher and yamen servant stared blankly, and after waiting for a long time, their voice trembled: "Auntie, auntie... girl, where is the county magistrate?"

Xu He knew that he would encounter such a fucking thing, so with a cold face, he said in a boyish voice: "Isn't this right in front of you."

"..."

thump.

It was the sound of someone fainting.

Xu He is still very work-oriented when the new official takes office.In the study, he took out the account book and settled the account expenses of Pingling County over the years.

After finishing the calculation, he raised his head with blood on his face: Damn it!Why is this place so poor!

It is really poor, and the stone and wooden piles for building a dam cannot be afforded.

Why are you so poor?

Flood control and dam building were a major event in ancient agriculture, and the imperial court basically allocated funds every year. Although the mountains are high and the land is far away, it’s not like they didn’t get a penny.He didn't believe in evil, so he looked through the account book again, and finally came to the conclusion that the governor of Jinzhou's river course was real, and he didn't give a penny to Pingling County.

From the table, he found a stack of letters from the former magistrate to the prefect of Jinzhou. There were also inquiries and urgings in the letter, but there was no news, or it was perfunctory saying that the government's appropriation had not yet come down.

"...Your head didn't come down."

Xu He held the pen, he felt a fire in his heart, but he couldn't express it.After calming down, according to the procedure, he also wrote a letter to the prefect of Jinzhou in his own crooked handwriting, following the procedure and imitating the letter from the former magistrate. Let him explain the general meaning clearly

Not long after, the servant came up with the food, and he put the chopping board on the table tremblingly, and said in a trembling voice, "Da Da, my lord, it's time to eat.

Xu He wrapped the letter and was a little tired. He looked down at the food.

Yo, green vegetables, platycodon grandiflora, steamed buns, and a few invisible minced meat.

Yes, it can compete with the Su Zhai on the Jokhang Temple.

Xu He picked up the chopsticks, took a mouthful of vegetables, and silently glanced at the servant.

The boy didn't dare to look at him at all, he was so frightened that he almost knelt on the ground and continued to tremble: "Da Da Da, my lord..."

Xu He was amused by him: "Do you all have to stutter like that in Pingling County?"

The boy was so confused that he didn't dare to speak.

Xu He didn't understand that he kept ignoring himself like a savage beast, but he didn't want to bully the children, so he said, "You go down first."

The boy let out a sigh of relief, and hurriedly pushed out the door to help him cover it up.

As soon as he stepped out of the study door, he was immediately surrounded by a group of people in the dark, nervous and chattering.

"How, what's your expression like?"

"Did you throw the plate on the spot? — This lord is from the capital, and he's used to delicacies from mountains and seas. Maybe he thinks we're really neglecting him."

"how is it going!"

The little servant hesitated, blushed, a little embarrassed: "I, I kept my head down, and didn't dare to look at the magistrate."

In an instant, he was beaten by a group of people.

"It's useless to ask your kid to be a fart!"

But when they thought about the boundless spring of the magistrate when they first met him, they also felt that, really, they dare not look directly at him.

The next day Xu He got up very early, the matter of the bandits could be postponed, but the matter of the dam had to be resolved first.Otherwise, the more you delay, the more damage you will cause.

He called the Venerable Master to go to the place where the dam was built and conduct geological surveys.

He called the history of the river here, and asked about the working conditions of the dam construction over the years. The history of the river was a young boy with a pale face. He was stunned for a long time when he saw Xu He in the first day of junior high school, and it took a long time to react. .

The flow rate of the water, the hardness of the rock, and the thickness of the river bed, Xu He took out a paper and pen, recorded the data, returned to the magistrate's study, and started to get busy.

In order to ensure that the dam will not be washed away together with the entire surrounding rock mass, there are many factors to be considered when designing the dam, preventing it from sliding, overturning, and floating, and calculating the force balance of the corundum.

After spending one night drawing a force diagram, Xu He understood why there were frequent floods in Pingling County—the anti-seepage body was too severely damaged, and the seepage and subsidence of the rock piles were too severe.

He overthrew everything, leaving only the most basic and basic data, pulled out another manuscript paper, and began to design the dam by himself.

The lights in the magistrate's study were turned on all night again, everyone in the government office was frightened and looked at each other in blank dismay.

"My lord, you walked around the county today, are you afraid of our... poverty?"

"Don't you just pack your things and prepare to go back to Beijing."

"Should we go in and see?"

"Well, let's forget it. It's not good if adults are crying."

In their cognition, this beautiful magistrate came here probably only for a while, and she looked spoiled and spoiled, maybe she came here specially to suffer and can't do anything.And for so many years, they didn't have any expectations for the magistrate who could do things.

Without Xue Chengyu to supervise, Xu He experienced the joy of the whole night for the first time in a long time.

Of course, it's cool all night, but the next day, life is worse than death.He was so sleepy that he had to force himself to go out, stopped someone at random, squinted his eyes, and it turned out to be the master of this house.

The master was just passing by. After all, the county magistrate's mansion is such a big place, so he was stopped suddenly.

The boy's voice was slightly tired but very nice.

He looked along the cool autumn morning light, at the end of the corridor, under the corner of the eaves, the slender and white hand of the magistrate, who had just arrived, was holding a piece of paper.

In the lackluster black and white buildings in Pingling County, his pomegranate red dress is dazzling, becoming the most distinctive stroke.

Xu He suppressed a yawn, handed the manuscript paper in his hand to the master, thought for a while, and instructed: "Give this to He Daoshi, if you don't understand anything, ask him to come and ask me tonight." Maybe I'll sleep all day.

The master lost his mind, took the paper, and couldn't make a sound for a long time.Until the young adult closed the door again.He patted his face to calm himself down, and muttered: "What, this county magistrate, don't make any fools."

He lowered his head, looked at the blueprint, and was stunned.Every line on it is straight, like a rudimentary form of a dam, and next to it are densely packed with symbols that he can't understand, but from the above, one can feel the good intentions of the designer.

The autumn wind blew up, stirring up a stormy wave in his heart.Great excitement and shock.

Pingling County, no, the entire Jinzhou, is about to change.
