Chapter 810 Murderous(1/3)
Ning Yayun took A Liang around several nearby villages.
Not much gained!
Ning Yayun looked at A Liang who was sleeping in her arms, reached out and touched his cheek gently, and couldn't help but smile when she saw him smacking his lips.
"go back!"
He took A Liang back to Taoxian County.
Yang Xuan was making arrangements at the Jiedu Envoy's house.
"Officials from all over the country, except for necessary manpower, will go down to the most difficult places to find problems and solve them."
An official said, "Deputy envoy, there are poverty in some places that cannot be solved."
Northern Xinjiang is a poor place, and development is uneven in various places, so some local governments are poor.
Yang Xuan said: "First try our best to let the people have food to eat and a place to shelter from the wind and rain. I will do the rest!"
When an important minister encounters a natural disaster like this, he will be cautious in expressing his views and will not get into trouble.
But Yang Xuan chose to take the responsibility on himself without hesitation, which is admirable.
Yang Xuan looked at the crowd, "The ugly words are ahead. Anyone who hesitates to move forward, is afraid of difficulties, is lazy in government, and does not give the people a way to live, then I will cut off his life first!"
These words were full of murderous intent, but Liu Qing praised them: "Those officials are all skinned, and that's how it should be."
Will these officials listen to what you say all day long about caring for the people?
It's strange to hear it.
There are only two ways to make them change, reward and punishment!
Yang Xuan stood up and said, "Let's all go!"
"yes!"
Everyone resigned.
Yang Xuan and Liu Qing were the only ones left in the lobby.
Liu Qing took a sip of tea and said, "This is a natural disaster. It makes me laugh when I think about it over there in Chang'an. In the opera garden, the singing and dancing are even more joyful. Northern Xinjiang is just Northern Xinjiang after all."
The old man has a complaint.
Yang Xuan said: "Has Chang'an ever taken action against natural disasters in Northern Xinjiang in the past?"
Liu Qing shook his head.
Yang Xuan smiled and said: "Then what do you expect?"
Liu Qing sighed, "After all, we are all in the Tang Dynasty! Having a mouth full of oil while eating and being hungry and cold at the same time, this is not a prosperous age, damn it! This is absurd!"
This is true, Yang Xuan said: "The emperor regards the people of the world as nothing, and the people of the world will naturally regard him as nothing. However, this requires a process."
Both of them knew that when this process was over, it would be the time for Northern Xinjiang to raise high the banner of rebellion.
Liu Qing's eyes became more intense, "It's said to be a natural disaster, but it would be a good thing if it can be undone."
"I don't just want to save it, I want to take this opportunity to make a difference to the world."
"What's the meaning?"
"Just wait and see."
A petty official came in and said, "Deputy envoy, Master Ning is here."
"Please come in quickly."
Yang Xuan got up and went by himself.
Ning Yayun came in with A Liang in her arms. Seeing him running this way in a hurry, she couldn't help but smile, "I took A Liang out. Even if I encounter thousands of troops, I can still bring him back."
Yang Xuan felt relieved when he saw his son sleeping soundly, "I'm not thinking about your hard work."
"You are becoming more and more hypocritical."
Yang Xuan smiled dryly, "Many times, hypocrisy is sincerity."
Ning Yayun talked about her trip, "...those villagers are honest and honest, don't blame them."
Yang Xuan shook his head, "The sky above their heads is only that big, and when they look up, the world they can see is only that big.
Their wealth and life are in their hands and in the fields.
Farming hard is their only way to survive.
Otherwise, they see no chance to change the status quo.
As time passed, those hopes were lost.
People are desperate.
When despair reaches the extreme, you will give up.
Then I gave up, surrendered to life, and accepted whatever came my way.
Find joy in suffering.
He looked cheerful.
This is ignorance in the eyes of outsiders - living such a difficult life and still being silly and happy, what else is this but ignorance?
In fact, I just gave up on life."
Ning Yayun was moved, "I am quite surprised that you can think of this."
"I was born in hardship." Yang Xuan thought for a moment and thought of Yuanzhou, "When faced with natural disasters, they are powerless. Who can they only rely on? Ethereal gods. Whose fault is this?"
Yang Xuan pointed to himself and the officials walking around.
Everyone stopped.
Yang Xuan said: "Herdsmen and herdsmen, the word "herds" fully expresses the mentality of officials.
We don't seek development, we just want the people to produce something like cattle and sheep every year...that is, to pay taxes.
You said it was absurd before, but I want to say that this mentality is even more absurd.
The people put all their efforts into supporting the officials and those in power, which is us.
Then, we should do our best to plan for them and make their lives better.
Those who have a herdsman mentality will sooner or later be overthrown by the common people whom they regard as cattle and horses."
Yang Xuan looked at the officials and asked, "Is there nothing left to do?"
The officials handed over their hands and went their separate ways in silence.
"What you said impressed me deeply. I believe these officials will remember it in their lifetime."
"We can't expect officials to consciously do things for the people. They have to look to their superiors."
Yang Xuan pointed to himself, "I am here. If I do things for the people sincerely, I will keep an eye on them. Then, the officials in the entire northern Xinjiang will follow my will."
"But the one in Chang'an is enjoying himself in the pear garden!"
Ning Yayun never concealed her disdain for the false emperor.
"So, he is destined to leave a record of shame in the annals of history."
Ah Liang woke up and said, "Yeah!"
Yang Xuan reached out and hugged him and said with a smile: "Is it fun outside?"
"Play!" A Liang clapped his hands. For some reason, Yang Xuan felt that the child's eyes were getting darker.
After hearing the news, Zhou Ning sent Zheng Wuniang to pick up the child.
"Xiao Langjun."
Seeing A Liang, Zheng Wuniang had tears in her eyes, worried and excited.
A Liang stretched out his hand and Zheng Wuniang took it, looked at it carefully and touched it.
There were also several Qiu Long Guards who came with them, and Zhang Xu personally went out to escort the eldest young master back.
This lineup is extremely powerful.
As long as they can resist for a moment, Lin Feibao and others from the Jiedushi Mansion can arrive for reinforcements.
Yang Xuan asked: "Will there be any gains from this trip?"
"You mean A Liang?" Ning Yayun was about to go back.
"yes."
"I don't know either."
"You..."
"That ancestor's soul was extremely powerful back then. This is the only thing I know."
"Okay! By the way." Yang Xuan said: "Other places are also offering sacrifices to the so-called drum god..."
To be continued...
