Qin Lang stood in a temple of Heavenly Kings, looking at the clay statue of Heavenly Kings, he felt amused and laughed. He didn't know if the people should be said to be simple or just making trouble.

The Locust Temple, which had just been destroyed, has now been replaced in a blink of an eye and has become the Heavenly King Temple again.

The King of Demons who subdued the Demons with Qinglong and the King of Demons with a strong hair, why is the name of the Demons who are quite long and frightening?

"Why do I look like the four heavenly kings in the Heavenly King Hall in the Buddhist Temple?" Qin Lang looked at the statue with glaring eyes wide open, and felt very absent.

But it just happened that they did have a bit of the image of their father and father.

Lin San on the side told Qin Lang, "The craftsman who built this statue originally used to sculpt Buddha statues for the temple. Since he was hired to repair this statue of the Heavenly King in this village, he has heard that it is very popular now. Qizhou is looking for him to sculpt the Heavenly King statues everywhere, and his disciples are now working as masters everywhere."

The people voluntarily built statues for Qin Qiong and his son. At first, some people set up the eternal sign for Qin Qiong and his son at home. Later, when the people of this village gathered money and grain to invite the craftsman from the village, they set up the statue of the Heavenly King in this destroyed Locust Temple, a wind of building the Heavenly King Temple quickly blew up in Qizhou.

In the past, those craftsmen who made statues in temples were reused again.

Soon, the destroyed Locust God Temple has now been renamed the Heavenly King Temple, and many new Heavenly King Temples have been built in various places.

If you have money, build large temples, small temples if you don’t have money. If you have money, build small temples if you have money, rich stone carvings and wood carvings will make clay and earth sculptures. In short, when the locust plague is under control and the people don’t have to worry about hunger for the time being, everyone’s energy has begun to be devoted to this.

Everyone devoted all the passion that had previously caught locusts and devoted themselves to the Xiutianwang Temple. Men, women, old and young people joined forces to catch locusts. They cut trees, pick soil, and chisel stones.

They imitated the four great heavenly kings of Buddhism and put the name of Qin Qiong and Qin Lang. One became the demon king who rode the Qinglong and the other became the demon king who swayed the Xuanwu and held the black sword.

Even in appearance, they look very similar to the king of heaven in the temple.

"Catching locusts and disaster relief is your great kindness and kindness, and it is the decision-making and dispatch of the court's dukes. My father and son just came to supervise them according to the order. This is also the credit of Your Majesty and the court's dukes. Everyone should be grateful and thanked you, and thank you and your Majesty and the Dukes. It is really inappropriate to build temple statues for us."

Qin Lang had nothing to be happy about. Although this was a spontaneous act of the people, it represented the people’s recognition of them and thanks them, but now it is the era of imperialism. If you have merits, the emperor and the prime ministers will have their own achievements.

Now you are accepting the people’s erecting eternal signs and building temple statues for you. What’s the point? You can make your contributions?

"Let the people demolish them."

Lin San and others said, "Why did you demolish it? This temple is so good, it's much better than what kind of locusts you offer. Everyone said that with the Qin King of All and Big in the future, you will surely be able to ensure good weather and good weather!"

“This is not suitable!”

Qin Lang still shook his head.

It is inappropriate to start praising merits before the locust plague has ended. Not to mention, as an official of the court, he has the responsibility to lead the people to fight locusts and disaster relief. This is the responsibility. Doing it well is the duty, and not doing it well is a dereliction of duty. Why do you have to let others be grateful to you for your duty?

Qin Lang asked someone to demolish the Heavenly King Temple and destroy the Heavenly King statue.

As a result, when the villagers nearby heard this, they all rushed over.

Everyone surrounded Qin Lang and protected the statue of the Heavenly King, asking not to destroy the statue of the Heavenly King Temple.

Everyone said that when the Qin Grandpa Qin Scholars arrived, the locust plague was finally over, and everyone didn’t have to go hungry. Everyone was really grateful. But the two of them would leave in the end. Everyone just hopes that after they leave, they will leave this Heavenly King Temple and Heavenly King statue, and continue to bless the people of Qizhou and bless the good weather in Qizhou.

No matter how Qin Lang said it was inappropriate, the people just refused to let go.

Some elderly people even came up and cried and said that they could not be demolished...

In the end, Qin Lang could not force the demolition. He could not step on the white-haired old men and women, and he could not ignore the simple people who wanted to desperately guard the statue of the Heavenly King Temple.

Qin Lang had no choice but to return to the prefecture yamen and told Qin Qiong about the situation.

"We father and son will apologize to His Majesty."

But as soon as the apology was issued, the people of Qizhou had spontaneously created a petition for ten thousand people. They petitioned the emperor and said that they would keep the statue of the Heavenly King Temple...

Even because of this incident, the enthusiasm of various places to build the Heavenly King Temple has become even greater, and the wind has spread rapidly to the surrounding areas. Longzhou, Jingzhou, Binzhou, Wugong and other places are also scrambling to build the Heavenly King Temple to create the Heavenly King statue.

In the homes of the people, every family has the longevity card of the Qin father and son.

According to the people, Qin Qiong and his son have lived with 100,000 families this time, and this kindness is immeasurable.

Zheng Yuanchun saw all this in his eyes and held it in his heart, feeling uncomfortable.

He was the local magistrate of Qizhou. He had done many things for the people before, building roads, building prefectures and county schools, and encouraging agriculture and teaching mulberry trees, but he was not as good as Qin Qiong and his son who had only been in Qizhou for half a month.

He wrote several memorials, but every time he finished writing, he teared them up, and after all, he still didn't send them to the court.

Just under this wave.

An envoy arrived in Chang'an.

The general affairs house read out the imperial edict, Qin Qiong and Qin Lang, father and son were rewarded with great contributions to the supervision of locust control, and Zheng Yuanfeng failed to provide disaster relief, disrespect the court and was dismissed from official positions and removed from the title for the people, and he was recovered from his previous rewards, and his posts were reclaimed, and Dou Yun, the Duke of Yan'an County, took over the position of governor of Qizhou.

Zheng Yuanshu took the order with a pale face, but he did not expect to deal with it so harshly.

As a relative of the foreign country, Dou Yun was also the son of the founding prime minister. He was very polite to Qin Lang and his son.

"Your Majesty is very satisfied with the performance of locust-catching and disaster relief in Qizhou. He also heard the voices of the people in Qizhou. Regarding the fact that the people spontaneously set up the eternal signs for Qin Gong and Qin scholars, they built a living temple and built a statue of the Heavenly King Temple, His Majesty said that this is your achievements and the people's expectations, and the prime ministers also praised the two of them for their achievements."

Anyway, the court has made an assessment of this matter that is getting bigger and bigger, believing that it is a good thing, just like some officials who have implemented benevolent policies in the local area and won the people's expectations, and when they finally left office, the people gave the people umbrella. This is a good thing worthy of record and boasting.

"The Heavenly King Temple built by the people of all places shall not be damaged. It shall be directly included in the court sacrificial ceremony and listed as the official sacrificial ceremony. Later, local governments will withdraw money to maintain it for the people to pray for good weather and drive away locusts and scourges."

According to the emperor's intention, this Heavenly King Temple is different from the Locust Temple. It is not considered a lewd temple or evil god. This is a good thing and good temple, so it must be preserved.

In the future, like Confucius Temple, Wu Zixu Temple, Luo Shixin Mengyang Temple, etc., it will become an official sacrificial sacrifice.

Qin Qiong and Qin Lang and his son entered the temple while alive. Although it was not Taimiao Confucian Temple and Martial Temple, this was also an extraordinary event.

After all, there were indeed many people in the past dynasties who built temples for those local officials who were benevolent and promising, but most of them were in one county and one state. It is very rare for Qin Lang and his son to sweep the Guanlong prefectures like this.

The emperor formally issued an edict to recognize the respectful title of Qin Lang and his son by the people.

"Is this not good?"

"Sanlang, this is the people's will." Dou Yun said politely to Qin Sanlang. Although he came to Qizhou and felt the enthusiasm among the people now, he also knew that since the emperor had a conclusion on this matter, there was no need to argue again.

In fact, many famous figures in history were invited to the temple by the people, but most of them were historical figures. Some were invited to the Hebo Temple, the Water Temple, the Mountain Temple, etc., and some were invited to the Temple of the General Luo Shixin.

There are really many titles of this god and that heavenly king.

For example, after the death of Luo Shishen, the temple was built by the people, and the statue was invited to be placed in the temple, and he was also respected as the Heavenly King of the Heavenly Cao Si. Therefore, although Li Shimin was surprised when he found out about this rising popularity, he thought for a long time and finally did not pour cold water on him.

He accepted the Tianwang Temple as an official temple and used it as a way for the people to pray for good weather and good weather, harvest and harvest, and the imperial court also recognized the names of the two Tianwangs by Qin Lang. Anyway, it was a false reputation that was favorable without any expense.

Qin Lang unexpectedly, Qin Qiong, the door god in history, has not become the door god, but has become the king of heaven with good fortune, and he has become the king of heaven as a result.

The Qin Tianwang, now he is in the hearts of the people of Qizhou. He has a high status just like the four kings in his heart when he was born in the 1980s. He has become an idol in the hearts of Qizhou and even most of the people of Guanzhong. With this trend, he may still become a superstar who is popular in the Tang Dynasty.

Compared with the name of the Heavenly King, the ten thousand acres of land given by Li Shimin did not make Qin Lang excited.

Dou Yun humbly asked Qin Qiong and Qin Lang and his son to save a lot of locusts and disaster relief experiences. As for Zheng Yuanshu, he was not even qualified to participate in the reception banquet that day. After receiving the order, he was directly urged by the Hundred Riders from Chang'an to take action.

I simply packed my luggage and started to set off and return to Xingyang that day.

He was lucky because he cooperated with disaster relief in time and was only abdicated for the people, and at least he was not admitted to the Changliu Lingnan. Otherwise, the resigned officials would pass at least ten posts a day. This kind of travel method, which could at least two hundred miles a day, can sometimes make many weak resigned officials die halfway before they reach the exile.

"Envoy Dou, I will hand over Qizhou to you, so I won't delay any more. I will go to Jingzhou with the order."

Qin Lang asked someone to sort out the official documents of the state yamen and hand them over to Dou Yun. Looking at the countless deficit books, Dou Yun couldn't help but feel overwhelmed.

Qizhou looks pretty good now, but behind it is the boxes of deficit books. The state yamen has issued countless white slips for the people. There is nothing else in the warehouse except for the hundreds of thousands of stone locusts.

"Qin Sanlang, what else should I explain to Dou?" Dou Yun asked.

"I believe that Envoy Dou will definitely manage Qizhou well. I have nothing to say. There is only one sentence: There will be a major epidemic after a major disaster. Please pay more attention to the epidemic prevention after the disaster."

"Will there be an epidemic?" Dou Yun immediately became serious. Although Qin Lang was young, he knew that this person was not simple, and many of his prophecies became facts.

"It is easy to have an epidemic after the disaster. This is past experience. I dare not say that there will be an epidemic this year, but you have to prevent it early and be prepared for any eventuality, right?"

"Sanlang's words are reasonable, I'll start preparing now."

On that day, the welcoming banquet for Dou Yun was also a farewell banquet for Qin Lang and Qin Lang.
