At the end of April, there were several heavy rains.

This rain may not only be unrelated at another time, but it is a happy event, but when the wheat is about to ripen, it is very easy to cause losses.

In Wenyang Province, the rain is slightly weaker, and the form is still severe.

"General, it has been raining frequently recently, and there are no major events in several prefectures and counties, only Jishui County, which is located in a low-lying area and has a large area of farmland, I am afraid of ......"

Ru Linlang Yu Liangbo held the documents submitted by the officials below, and talked about them one by one, and when he talked about the hidden dangers of flooding in Jishui County, Wang Hongyi's brows furrowed.

"It's been raining for too long. Standing up in front of the window, looking out at the rain curtain, I only felt that the humidity was blowing on my face and diffuse.

"Yu Liangbo, what do you think can be done to keep the harvest in Jishui County from being affected?" Wang Hongyi turned his head and looked at the person he had been very important recently.

But I was thinking about a problem in my heart, that is, Xue Yuan's quantity, he had a good wheat harvest and was expected to be popular, this Xue Yuan could also take advantage of the situation to break through the fate, and put forward the Zhengqipin County Order, why is it that it is coming to the end now, but this one happened again?

Suddenly, I remembered an unlucky official on the earth, who wanted to be promoted several times, and this person was talented, but every time he went, something had to happen - a few times down, so that the upper authorities were cold, and it seemed that his life was not enough!

After thinking for a while, Yu Liangbo proposed a feasible solution: "General, it is better to sacrifice once in the Dragon Maiden Temple and pray for the protection of the Dragon Maiden!"

"Sacrifice once in the Dragon Maiden Temple?" Wang Hongyi turned around and stared at Yu Liangbo for a moment, then said, "You made this suggestion?"

"Yes, the county order of Jishui County is Lord Xue Yuanxue, this person is probably very familiar with the generals, and the work that can be done, Lord Xue must have done it, and now the only way the minister can think of is this one. If the general thinks this proposal is really ridiculous, then the minister is talking nonsense......" Yu Liangbo said calmly.

"No, you're very good. Wang Hongyi intercepted what he wanted to say, and said with a sigh: "This method, just try it!"

With Xue Yuan's ability, in Jishui County, what manpower can do must have been done.

This rain from heaven is beyond the control of man.

In the earth world, Wang Hongyi understood that this rain interference was the only barely feasible range in the earth world, and the reason was very simple, the water vapor and cloud qi were meager, so they could be interfered by divine power.

But even so, the dragon girl in this Jishui County can give it a try if she has this kind of power.

"Yu Liangbo, this matter will be handed over to you, you go to Jishui County as soon as possible to supervise the sacrifice. Wang Hongyi thought for a while and said, "Let it stop raining in the near future to harvest wheat." ”

"No. Early the next morning, a carriage set off from Wenyang Mansion City under the escort of several soldiers.

At this time, the raindrops continued to fall in the wind, big or small, when they were small, they fell on their faces, and the cool silk was very useful, but when they were big, they crackled and hit the eaves and stones.

Last year, Wang Hongyi carried several small trees, lush, growing more than a foot taller, stretching their branches and leaves in the rain.

At this time, Xue Yuan was having a small official looking at the rain and sighing.

"My lord, it has been raining for five days, and if it rains for a few more days, I am afraid that there will be problems with this year's harvest. The little official sighed.

Xue Yuan looked at the rain, couldn't see his expression, and asked, "Is the river beach embankment reinforced?"

"The second reinforcement, there will never be an accident. The little official said.

Xue Yuan asked again: "Have all the houses in the county been inspected?"

"Every one of them has been checked, and even in two months, there will be no problems. ”

Xue Yuan turned around and walked back, without looking back: "That is, it is enough, it doesn't rain this day, but it is not you and me." ”

In fact, Xue Yuan also felt something, and his heart was a little desolate.

"My lord, there is one more matter, the lower official wants to report it to you. After taking a few steps, the voice of the little official came from behind again.

"Oh, what's the matter?" Xue Yuan turned around and looked at the young man who was approaching him.

"My lord, when the minister passed by the Dragon Maiden Temple, he saw that there were cracks in the side wall of the temple, and I was afraid that it might collapse. The little official recalled, and said.

Hearing this, Xue Yuan's eyes widened: "Is this true?"

Seeing Xue Yuan's expression so serious, the young official became more and more serious: "The lower officials really see it, and there will be no mistake." ”

"If that's what you say...... Very good, you reminded you of this in a timely manner. Xue Yuan looked up to the sky, took a few cool raindrops, and said with a sigh: "If something really goes wrong and collapses, I'm afraid it's not just as simple as killing and injuring a few people, I'm afraid that even the general will also attract criticism." I ordered someone to go to the Dragon Maiden Temple to check. ”

As he spoke, Xue Yuan walked out of the corridor briskly.

The little official stayed in place for a moment, then he also figured it out, and at the same time suddenly realized, he chased after him.

"My lord, do you mean that there are deaths and injuries in the temple, and someone will use this matter to attack the general?" the young official followed and asked, he was Xue Yuan's nephew, and he came to take refuge after Xue Yuan became an official.

Xue Yuan didn't pause, but affirmed his thoughts, and said as he walked: "You're right, this matter is really wrong, it's not big, it's not small, if you wait for a few years, the foundation of the lord is solid, this is nothing." ”

Now, it is enough to spread false rumors to deceive the world. Although I don't believe in the gods, but I can't let this happen, speaking of which, but I was negligent, since I took office, I have never been to the Dragon Maiden Temple, if you don't mention it today, I don't know that there is such a thing. ”

"My lord, you are busy with official business, how can you take care of such trivial matters. ”

"No, this matter, it is indeed my negligence, I know at this time, it is not too late, I will order someone to repair the Dragon Maiden Temple!" Xue Yuan has always been cautious in doing things, and will never delay things until the next day to do it, and on the same day, he sent someone to supervise this matter.

When Yu Liangbo came to Jishui County, he was just in time for the Dragon Girl Temple to be repaired.

"Lord Yu, why did you come to Jishui County?"

After returning from the inspection of the Dragon Maiden Temple, even though there was a carriage to travel, his clothes were already wet, and Xue Yuan was about to change into dry clothes when he heard a report from his subordinates.

So I went straight to the side hall.

"Lord Xue, what are you...... Just returned from outside?" Looking up and down at the person in front of him, Yu Liangbo was a little surprised to see water dripping on the ground.

However, Yu Liangbo was by the general's side, had access to secrets, and was accustomed to hiding his emotions, and returned to normal in a moment: "Don't change into dry clothes?"

"I had this plan, but when I heard that Lord Yu was coming, I came here first. Xue Yuan said, "I don't know what order Lord Yu brought to the general?"

Yu Liangbo laughed and said, "Lord Xue is really a real person, but what Yu told is urgent, but he can still wait for a cup of tea." Lord Xue is so wet and indecent, so let's change into dry clothes first, Yu is waiting here. ”

When the two talked about official positions, Yu Liangbo is now the ninth grade, and Xue Yuan is the eighth grade, but because Yu Liangbo is in a confidential position, he is not called an official.

Xue Yuan listened, did not object, arched his hand, and said: "Since this is the case, then please wait for a while, and Xue will come back soon." ”

Xue Yuan changed into dry clothes and returned to the main hall, and Yu Liangbo finished drinking a cup of tea.

"Lord Xue, let me tell you directly, this time the general sent Xue to have something to do with the Dragon Maiden Temple. The rain continued for a long time, and I was afraid that it would affect the harvest, so the general ordered Xue to come to worship the dragon girl and ask for her blessing to suspend the rain in Wenyang Mansion. Yu Liangbo said about this sacrifice.

"Is this the general's order?" Xue Yuan, who is good at orthodoxy, didn't think much of this Shinto was a little ridiculous, but after thinking about it, he had held a sacrifice by the Jishui River before, and he didn't feel how difficult it was to accept it.

"Since it is the general's order, according to what you said, hold a sacrifice in the Dragon Maiden Temple, I hope it can have an effect!" Sighing, Xue Yuan said in response.

"Since Lord Xue has no objection, Yu will assist your county and contribute to this sacrifice. Yu Liangbo said with a smile.

Xue Yuan smiled slightly bitterly, could he object?

Not to mention that this matter was arranged by Wang Hongyi, and it is not a big deal, it doesn't cost much, just some energy, this kind of thing, it doesn't hurt to do, it is not worth giving special advice, if it really works, it is for the benefit of the people.

In the middle of the day, the sacrificial activities were hastily held in the Dragon Maiden Temple.

It is said to be hasty, but in fact the preparation is very careful.

There are Confucian Lang Yu Liangbo here to supervise, and many trivial matters are handled very properly.

The ceremony was also very thorough, on the day, the temple was cleaned and tidy, in addition to the officials who participated in the sacrifice, there were also spontaneous onlookers.

Even heavy rain could not dampen their enthusiasm for such activities.

When Xue Yuan led people into the Dragon Maiden Temple, the temple was already full of smoke. Three sticks of coarse incense were then lit and inserted into the incense burner.

In front of the statue of the dragon lady, on the long incense case, there are offerings, and the offerings are fruits, grains, rice wine, fruit wine, etc., and there are no bloody things such as chickens and pigs.

Xue Yuan, as the parent official here, led the local officials to worship and make a wish to the dragon girl after reciting a sacrificial word.

Unlike ordinary people who make wishes, when this group of officials sacrifices together, they have a strong wish power on their bodies and float towards the dragon goddess statue in front of them.

These wishes and luck converged in one place, and they were directly submerged in the idol.

At the same time, it was drizzling in the Jiedu Envoy's house, and Su'er followed the maid to Song Xinyou's place, although Song Xinyou didn't care much about her pregnancy, but she sent the money every month, except for the old lady.

There are a few rocks in the courtyard, planted with flowers and plants, and there is no problem in sweeping it at a glance.

Five fine houses, enter a door, only to see a bed, hanging a tent, Song Xinyou wearing homely clothes, leaning on the bed with a book, saw him come in, threw the book down, and said, "Miss Cousin, please sit." ”

Su'er hurriedly stepped forward to ask for peace, if this woman was not deposed, she would be the queen or even the queen, and she really couldn't be lazy.

Seeing that Su'er sat down, Song Xinyou said: "It's already the end of the month, but it's the next month's regular money, I heard that you are also the official of the Doctor of Forbidden Spells?"

Saying this, he looked at her with autumn water-like eyes, Su'er carefully picked her figure, her eyes were bright, she was a beautiful woman, and she was a little confused and a little strange.

Such a little beauty, it is common sense that her husband likes her, but what does it mean to give this "Forbidden Curse Doctor" official, is she still good at strange arts?

"Yes, Cousin Montene, by grace, has made me the official of the Doctor of Forbidden Spells. Speaking of this, Su'er smiled, and her bright face appeared, and it could be seen that she was really happy.

Wang Hongyi is now not an official appointed by the imperial court, and the luck of the official is appointed and dismissed by the imperial court, which can be given to you or deprived of by a decree.

Now Wang Hongyi has gradually become the lord of the two counties, and he is the real master, so he has the luck of these hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians, and this luck is only thin and gathered now, but with the expansion of time and territory, it will soon be like a flood of seas, how can ordinary real people compare it?

You know, every person has a little luck, Wang Hongyi is now self-reliant, although by the original some backlash, but since he has been established, he can enjoy this great luck, and after Wang Hongyi is the mainstay, the administrative use of troops, quelling the war, and reclaiming wasteland has indeed benefited the people on this side.

Now under the rule of the two counties, there are 200,000 people, and if this luck can be gathered and accumulated, the power can be imagined.

Su'er can use her legal official position, which is equivalent to integrating into this newly built tripod, and the benefits will be very large in the future, no wonder she is very happy.

At this time, another maid brought tea, and both of them drank tea and said something that didn't matter, and after a while, a maid came over with a basin.

"Miss Biao, your case of fifteen taels of silver, as well as the five taels of silver transferred from this official position, a total of twenty taels, you can accept them together!"

At this moment, Su'er was stunned, suddenly raised her head, looked in the direction of Jishui County, and a trace of surprise appeared on her face.

After a while, he woke up, looked at the four small ingots on the plate, took it, said for a while, saw Song Xinyou, a little lazy, and got up to say goodbye, Song Xinyou didn't stay much, only said: "You are idle, you want to come and talk to me, just come over." ”

Ordered the maid to send her out.

Outside, the rain gradually stopped.

In Jishui County, after reciting the vow, the officials got up and were about to say something, when a commotion suddenly sounded outside, and the sound became louder and louder.

"What's going on?" Xue Yuan frowned and asked left and right.

At this time, a small official ran in from outside, with a happy face, and said to Xue Yuan when he came in: "My lord, it is really the blessing of the dragon girl, the rain has stopped!"

"The rain stopped?" This really surprised Xue Yuan, when he came in, it was raining outside, and the sky was gloomy, as if it would rain for a few more days, it was not a problem, how could it suddenly stop?

When I walked out of the temple and looked up, I saw that the dark clouds in the sky had begun to disperse, the sky was blue, the ground was wet, but no rain had fallen.

After a while, the sun came out and the sun shone down.

The people were cheering, and this could only be explained by miracles.

"I really didn't expect this dragon goddess to be so amazing. Someone behind Xue Yuan said that when he turned around, he saw Yu Liangbo's face as usual and he stepped out of the temple.

In fact, Yu Liangbo was also amazed by this matter in his heart, but he refused to show his emotions in front of outsiders.

Xue Yuan didn't answer, and he was a little skeptical about this miracle.

In any case, with this incident, the local people's confidence in the Dragon Maiden has increased greatly, and some large households even took the initiative to donate money and materials, willing to rebuild the Dragon Maiden Temple.

The incense of the Dragon Lady Temple is vigorous, and at this time, April has passed, and May has arrived.

The harvest is approaching.
