The Bashan and Chu River were desolate, and they were abandoned for twenty-three years.

I sing and hear the flute in nostalgia, and when I go to the hometown, I feel like a rotten person.

Thousands of sails pass by the sunken boat, and thousands of trees are spring in front of the sick tree.

Today I will listen to you a song, and I will be energetic after drinking.

Liu Yuxi of Tang Dynasty, "Reward Lotte at the First Meeting of the Yangzhou Festival"

As the stars change, half a month has passed since the army in the west set off to return to Chang'an.

Li Bo followed Su Dawei and only took a few personal guards to get on his own. He first arrived at the post station set up by the Tang Dynasty in Jiannan Road. He received guidance from the postmaster and local natives. He spent several days crossing mountains and ridges before reaching the destination of the trip.

Huang'an County.

Huang'an County was later in Jiange, Sichuan Province, and belonged to Jiannan Road and Pu'an County during the Tang Dynasty.

As for whether the court wanted to deal with Su Dawei or whether it was worth it, there was an answer at this time.

When Su Dawei arrived in Huang'an County, the first thing he saw was the sky full of blue veins, dozens of miles away, and only the dilapidated thatched hut was left.

Just looking at these, they are completely different from the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty Chang'an.

It is really hard to believe that the Tang Dynasty has destroyed countless countries and expanded its territory thousands of miles, but there is such an existence in the territory of the Tang Dynasty.

A young county magistrate, accompanied by local yamen runners, welcomed Su Dawei and others and bowed: "There were more than 600 households in Huang'an County, with 3,221 people. Now there are not one ten people. All of them are due to severe droughts in the previous year, floods in the last year, and this year there are signs of locust plagues. It's fine if these are just there, but there are also epidemic diseases."

He paused and said, "I discussed with the governor of Jiannan Road. This matter must be done by Su Langjun. The saints in the court also had this intention, so..."

He pointed to Huang'an County, which was almost like a ruin behind him: "How to prevent epidemics, how to save people, how to prevent locust plagues, we all depend on Sulang... The magistrate of Su County survived."

Su Dawei looked at the direction he pointed, and his eyes fell on the county magistrate's face again, with a look of helplessness and a wry smile: "I didn't expect to meet an old friend here again, Ming Langjun, why did he come here too?"

Li Bo followed his words and looked carefully at the county magistrate in front of him.

It was indeed Ming Chongyan from Chang'an in the past.

Three years have passed, and his body has completely grown, which is very different from the childishness of the previous boy.

It feels quite majestic and heroic.

Unfortunately, this handsome and beautiful face has become much haggard in this broken Huang'an County where birds do not shit.

"I? Not yet...you should know."

Ming Chongyan was halfway through his speech, and suddenly changed his subject: "Mr. Su County has just arrived today. I will take you to see the whole picture of Huang'an County. I came one month earlier than you, but the conditions here are so bad, and I don't know how to start. Recently, they have taken these yamen runners to try their best to maintain local order and arrest bandits, but they still can't help but the remaining people scattered and flee.

If County Magistrate Su came half a month later, I am afraid that Huang'an County will no longer exist."

He said as he led the way forward. When he said this, his steps slowed down slightly: "Mr. Su County, it should be the same task as me, right?"

"What?"

"fine."

Ming Chongyan continued to patrol their "territories" with Su Dawei, Li Bo and others without looking back.

Su Dawei thought to himself: Is Ming Chongyan demoted here? It was said that Wu Meiniang valued him quite well, but why did he also get sent here? It was a coincidence. Could it be that there is something else in Huang'an County?

Li Bo didn't know Su Dawei's inner thoughts. He was half a position behind Su Dawei. He thought in his heart: Such difficult conditions don't seem to be coming down to experience, could it be a demotion? By the way, I heard the poem Su Langjun chanted on the road before, "The desolate land of Bashan and Chu River" doesn't look like a good topic, it's really unsettling...

In silence, I spent most of my time turning the whole county around.

Su Dawei saw that there were not many people left in the area, all of whom were old, weak, sick and disabled, and each of them had a good meal.

Many people keep their homes closed and refuse to come out in their own huts.

The faint smell of herbal medicine in the nose seems to indicate that the epidemic has not been far away.

"The young people who could escape all fled. They fled into the mountains and forests and fled to nearby counties. However, the imperial court strictly ordered people from this county not to enter other counties. Therefore, these people eventually flowed into the mountains and forests, and became bandits. Some of them were mixed with the natives in the mountains and often robbed each county. The law of the governor's office of Jiannan Road issued several official documents for this, but the order could not be stopped."

Su Dawei was thinking and heard this, "Was this legal Cao of the Governor's Office of Jiannan Road..."

"Die Renjie, your old acquaintance."

Su Dawei couldn't help but feel silent.

Ming Chongyan, Di Renjie, and these three people did not expect to gather together in this Bashu land.

In the dark, I always feel that there is an inexplicable fate.

Yes, in history, Ming Chongyan was indeed a county magistrate, but Su Dawei couldn't remember whether he was Huang'an County or not.

Di Renjie was indeed appointed as the governor's office's law chief, and that was recommended by Yan Liben.

However, it seems that it is Bingzhou, why has it also come to Bashu now?

Shaking his head, some things have changed wonderfully, and they are somewhat different from the original history.

By the way, it would be great if Wang Xuance was there. He seemed to have served as the magistrate of Huang'an County.

Su Dawei pinched his eyebrows and suddenly remembered that Wang Xuance was the magistrate of Huangshui County, not Huang An. The difference is one word, and it is thousands of miles apart.

Huangshui County was a later Rongshui Miao Autonomous County, located in Guangxi.

"Okay, that's all the situation. I wonder what kind of recipes the magistrate Su County has?"

Ming Chongyan stopped and stepped on a big rock on the edge of a cliff. His whole body was shaking with the mountain wind, his clothes flying, as if he would jump out of the cliff at any time and fly away with the wind.

His eyes were bright and clean, without any impurities, and he stretched out three fingers to Su Dawei: "The court sent you and me here three purposes: quell the epidemic, recruit refugees, and restore order in Huang'an County; cooperate with the Governor's Office of Jiannan Road to recover the people of Huang'an County from all over the country, and never let the epidemic spread; 3. According to Li Chunfeng, the Secret Pavilion, the epidemic came strangely, and there may be a bad person behind the scenes. This matter must be found out. If someone really uses evil magic and magic to confuse the party, he must examine it in law."

Ming Chongyan stared at Su Dawei: "This is the meaning of you and I come here. County Magistrate Su, what do you think now?"

Su Dawei waved his hand: "Let me think about it."

This is the current situation.

Whether Ming Chongyan was demoted for Helan Minzhi's affairs or was valued by Wu Meiniang, he was sent to do this matter.

Now, Su Dawei must join forces with him.

The matter in Huang'an County was caused by drought and flood, and there was a plague afterwards. Although it was just a small county, it seemed that there were only more than 3,000 people, even if they died, they would be only...

Things are not that simple.

People can run away with long legs, and young and strong people flee to nearby prefectures and counties in order to escape famine.

This is a mobile virus database.

Although Shu is mountainous and many places are primeval forests and deserted, if a successful investment in nearby prefectures and counties is a new detonation point.

Su Dawei experienced the war against the epidemic in later generations and knew very well that consequences.

If the epidemic cannot be controlled in time and these star fires are put out, once the epidemic spreads from Huang'an County to densely populated prefectures and counties, Jiannan Road will inevitably suffer severe damage.

Although the transportation in the Tang Dynasty was not as developed as in later generations, theoretically, this epidemic was at most a disaster to the Bashu area.

But if Bashu is in a mistake, it will directly shake the military capabilities of the Tang Dynasty in Anxi and Tuyuhun and Tubo.

If these places are turbulent, it will be a disaster.

Especially whether Tuyuhun and Tubo, which had just been quelled, will rebel again, are unknown.

These are the first two items, and the last one is even more terrifying when Ming Chongyan said.

If this epidemic is not a natural formation, but someone poisons behind the scenes, the threat will be even greater.

Can you poison in Bashu? Can you poison in other prefectures and counties in the Tang Dynasty?

Even poisoned in Luoyang, Chang'an, the Great Tang Dynasty?

If in this era, someone mastered the virus technology and created a plague artificially...

It was a catastrophe for the Tang Dynasty.

"My mom, is there a hawk sauce in this era?"

"Mr. Su County, what did you say?"

"No, I don't care about these." Su Dawei changed the topic and said to Ming Chongyan: "I have been fighting in Tubo in the past few years, and I don't know what happened. I heard that many things have happened after His Majesty and Empress Wu of Taishan, but I don't know..."

Ming Chongyan stared at him with his eyes, staring at him with a tight look as if he was saying: Do you want to make a trap?

Su Dawei smiled bitterly and said, "You should know my character. I really heard that the disaster is related to Fengshan. I don't know the specific reason. I still can't figure out many things. If it is not convenient for the Ming County Magistrate..."

"You follow me."

Ming Chongyan glanced at him deeply and signaled to him. The two walked to a big stone beside them.

"If you talk about the court, you may be guilty of criticism."

"I guarantee it with my personality, it is all for Huang'an County's affairs and will never involve anything else."

Ming Chongyan nodded and said, "I have stayed enough in this broken place. I hope you can finish the matter quickly."

After saying that, he chose important matters in the court after the Fengshan Mountains and the Fengshan period, and told Su Dawei.

"Since Shangguan Yi, the emperor and the Empress Wu of Mount Tai, last year, the sun and the moon were in the new year, and there was a solar eclipse. In the whole winter, there was no snow on Chang'an. In February of the spring, a loud thunder suddenly broke out in the southeast of Chang'an. According to the "Astronomy Records" recorded by Li Chunfeng of the Secret Pavilion, the new year of the month was a warning from God, and the partial eclipse on the sun was that there was a villain around the emperor."

When the sun and moon eclipse are exhausted, the main position is; if the end is endless, the subordinate position is.

According to the theory of induction of heaven and man, it is not snowing again and there is a thunder sound, which is a complete ironclad evidence.

The court was unjust, and the emperor had treacherous ministers around him, which offended God.

Hearing this, Su Dawei's face changed suddenly.

Although in later generations, the so-called responses to heaven and man were all talked about without chickens, the Tang Dynasty, astrology and prophecies at this time were all the sciences of the Tang Dynasty, and the highest "imperial learning".

Back then, Li Yuan almost killed Li Shimin because of "Taibai Jingtian".

This forced Li Shimin to launch the Xuanwu Gate Incident in advance.

Li Shimin also suspected that the "female protagonist, Emperor Wu", and cut off Li Junxian, the general of the nickname "Fifth Girl", indiscriminately.
