My wife is number one in the world

Chapter 610 Five catties of locusts and one catty of rice
"Master Liu, we have arrived at the governor's yamen, please get off the bus!"

The carriage stopped slowly and Liu Mingzhi frowned when he got out of the carriage and watched him standing in front of the carriage and giving the low-level salute. It was a little too much for Tong and Wu to do so.

Even though he is an imperial envoy who sees officials at the first level, he shouldn't be so humble.

"Lead the way!"

"Master Liu, please come inside!"

"Tong Dudu doesn't need to be so polite. Excluding the title of imperial envoy, you and I are both third-rank officials. In terms of age, you are also the senior of this official. If you are too humble, this official will be unhappy!"

"Master Liu, please don't be offended. My colleagues and I would like to thank Master Liu for rescuing Qingzhou from the bottom of our hearts. Otherwise, we Qingzhou officials will never have a bright future."

Liu Mingzhi nodded imperceptibly at Song Qing, Song Qing slowly fell behind the crowd by about half a step, and finally gradually disappeared behind the last Qingzhou official.

Song Qing had two missions this time. One was to find Chang Yunfeng. He had clearly sent him to open a warehouse to release grain, but Chang Yunfeng, who was carrying the order of the Golden Dragon Emperor, did not appear.

The second is to send people to pick up people like Qiao Changjing from the People's Court for questioning.

Liu Mingzhi glanced at the officials who nodded and bowed: "Colleagues, do you know where these rioters locked your family?"

"Returning to Mr. Liu, our family members are locked in the cellar in the backyard of Qingzhou Governor's Mansion. Just now, the governor has quietly ordered someone to rescue him. Thank you, Mr. Liu, for your concern!"

"That's good, that's good. My lords have worked hard for the country and the people. If your family members are hurt again, I will feel uneasy!"

"My lord is benevolent, later the guards will send the family members of our colleagues over to thank you for your life-saving grace."

"It doesn't have to be like this. I am ordered to transfer all the important military and government affairs in Qingzhou. It is my job to save the people from the fire and water. The most urgent thing is to deal with the locust plague first."

"Master Liu, please take a seat!"

While talking all the way, he finally arrived at the lobby of the governor's yamen.

"Hey, Mr. Tong, take the seat. You are the master of the governor's yamen. How can I take the place of the master."

"Your Majesty Liu, please don't refuse. You are the imperial envoy from Qingzhou who will drive to Qingzhou on behalf of my emperor. If you are here, how dare you take the seat? You should invite me."

"Yes, yes, the governor is right, so don't be too polite, please take a seat."

"I invite Master Liu to sit down."

Liu Mingzhi looked at many officials with a faint smile: "Since all my colleagues admire me so much, it would be a little rude to refuse to give up. If so, I will be rude."

Liu Mingzhi put down the seal of the imperial envoy and sat at the head of the hall: "Come here, prepare chairs for your lords."

"Thank you for your seat."

Liu Mingzhi drank the tea brought by the yamen servant and glanced at the Qingzhou officials who lined up in two shifts. There were only about 20 people with seats, and the rest of the people in green official robes stood aside cautiously.

"My colleagues in Qingzhou are ordered to provide disaster relief. Since the disaster relief is coming, let's make a long story short and focus on controlling the locust disaster. What do you colleagues in Qingzhou think?"

"Master is wise."

"Where is Qingzhou governor Shi Xingrong?"

"The subordinate is here!"

Liu Mingzhi looked at Qingzhou Governor Shi, who was sitting on the ninth chair below, and said in a light red official robe: "Since the traitor Gu Zhiheng has been killed, Qingzhou cannot be without a leader. From now on, Qingzhou Governor Shi will temporarily take the post of Qingzhou Inspector."

"what?"

"What? Master Xing is not happy?"

"I am willing, thank you Master Liu for your trust!"

"This is the trust of the Holy Majesty and the people. Don't neglect your duties. Otherwise, there are many people in Qingzhou who want to be in this position. Whether you, the long history, can become a regular governor depends on your ability!"

"Yes, yes, the lower officials are confused, and the lower officials must never slack off in Qingzhou affairs!"

"The governor of Pizhou, and the governor of Shengzhou will also act as governor temporarily!"

"Thank you sir!"

"The rosters of the disaster-affected states in Qingzhou Prefecture have been submitted, and I want to have a look at them."

Tong Hewu nodded: "Submit the situation of your states to Mr. Liu for review!"

Jiang Lei consciously walked down and began to store books one after another and put them on Liu Mingzhi's desk: "Master Liu, please have a look!"

"kindness!"

Liu Mingzhi flipped through the books on the table lightly, his brows furrowed more and more.

Qingzhou had about 1 casualties, and the rest of the states except Gongzhou had the least number of 3000 to [-].

Add up to more than 3 people, how many people are there in Qingzhou prefecture, and the prefectures and counties are sparsely populated. Qingzhou is in a state of trauma.

This is only the situation within a month, and Liu Mingzhi is not clear whether the record is true or not.

There is not enough time, and for the time being, we can only rely on these recorded accounts.

"Tong Dudu, the locust plague in Qingzhou is so serious, why didn't you have any follow-up papers after you submitted two papers beforehand?"

Liu Mingzhi took out the memorial given to him by the emperor and put it on the table: "Now Qingzhou has more than [-] people affected by the disaster, and what is written on your memorial is to live and work in peace and contentment, and you are guilty of deceiving the emperor? "

"My lord Liu has learned that since I was imprisoned, I have never given any papers."

"How many White Lotus Sects can break into Qingzhou City and hold the governor of a prefecture hostage? What do the tens of thousands of garrison troops in Qingzhou prefecture do? In the end, it's because of your negligence and negligence. Your hometown has been copied. How dare you stand here and say something?" Loyal to the emperor and patriotic, and good at herding the people?"

A large group of Qingzhou officials all knelt down: "Master Liu, please forgive me. We were negligent in going out of the city to relieve the disaster. We were kidnapped by the rebel who suddenly appeared, and we had to obey the order of the rebel. The rebel Bailian said Now, if one person refuses to listen to kill ten people, and ten people refuse to listen to kill a hundred people, we can only bear the humiliation and bear the burden and let the Bailian disciples manipulate us. We are ashamed of the great trust we have given to His Majesty the Five Emperors, please punish the Lord Liu!"

"Punishment? More than [-] people were killed or injured, let alone punished. Your death is not a pity. However, when the Qingzhou government employs people with integrity, it is justifiable for you to be held hostage. Your crimes will be temporarily suppressed for trial!"

"Thank you Master Liu for your kindness, we know our mistakes, and we must hurry up to make amends!"

Liu Mingzhi held up the seal of the imperial envoy: "All civil and military officials in the Qingzhou Mansion, from the governor to the nine-rank document, obey orders."

"Please tell me, my lord!"

"You should return to the jurisdiction as soon as possible, rectify the internal affairs of the state capital, eliminate the remnant bandits of the White Lotus Sect in the city, and immediately open a warehouse to distribute food to the victims. If anything goes wrong, find a place to bury it yourself!"

The officials of Qingzhou Prefecture looked at each other before nodding hesitantly: "We obey the order."

"Remember the rules of gruel giving, two are thin and one is thick, chopsticks float up and people's heads fall to the ground. If you dare to bully this official and play tricks from it when you are young, don't blame this imperial envoy for using his head as a sacrifice to comfort the three. The spirit of all the people in heaven!"

"Yes, the lower officials must not dare to disobey!"

"Disaster relief, disaster relief is one thing. Relying on the food stored in the state treasury and the food allocated by the Ministry of Households is no different from a drop in the bucket. From now on, order the people in the city to drink gruel, and the victims with sufficient physical strength will go out of the city to catch locusts and come to the governor's office for exchange. Grain! Five catties of locusts and one catty of rice!"

"Huh? Capture locusts?"

Tong Hewu looked at Liu Mingzhi anxiously: "Lord Liu, locusts are the punishment of the locust god. If the locust god is angered, the people will probably have nothing to harvest next year!"

"Yes, Master Liu, please take it back!"

"."

Liu Mingzhi slapped the gavel: "Anyone who dares to disobey will be determined."

"Yes!"

"This is the case in all state capitals. It is ordered that the people affected by the disaster must catch locusts if they want to drink porridge. Five catties of locusts and one catty of rice should be exchanged at the governor's office on the spot!"

"Follow the order!"
