Master Yu sat on the side of the bed after a pause, and asked, "What does Master He think of the magistrate of Luoyang County?"
Governor He narrowed his eyes, and said slowly, "He~"
I didn't speak for a long time.
Master Yu said: "Don't worry, Mr. He, today's words come out of your mouth and into my ears, and will not be spread outside."
Inspector He shook his head slightly and said, "It's not like that, I've been ill for too long, and it takes time to remember."
Master Yu looked at Governor He who had a clear logic and spoke fairly clearly, and believed him to be a ghost.
Master Xia didn't believe it either, so he asked directly: "Corrector He, I don't know why the Luo County Magistrate was evaluated as the next year?"
"The year before last," Governor He squinted his eyes and thought for a moment, then sighed after a while, "The year before last in Luoyang was not good. First, there was a drought during spring sowing. People in this village fought over water, killing one person and seriously injuring three."
This is considered a vicious incident. Generally, when such an incident occurs, the governor will give the local county magistrate a bad opinion, but Luoyang is Guo County, and everyone sees it without looking up. As long as the relationship is not too bad, it will generally fall to medium, not bad. Will give the inferior evaluation directly.
You must know that the middle class means passing, and the lower class means failing. If he gets such a rating for two consecutive years, he, the county magistrate, will either be demoted or dismissed directly.
Master Yu then asked carefully: "Does Inspector He not like County Magistrate Luo?"
Governor He smiled, and continued: "After autumn, the rain increased that year, and the wheat was harvested, but the rice was still in the field. I asked the old farmers, and they said that the drought in the spring may cause water It has been accumulated for a while, but I have also consulted the old Taoists of Qintian Supervisor Jianzheng and Xuandu Guan, and they all said that it does not matter, the rain is only intermittent, and it will clear up after a while."
"Sure enough, the rain comes in bursts. It lasts for half a day every day, and the rest of the time is either cloudy or sunny, but it has been like this for seven or eight days in a row. He was afraid. He didn't inform the state, and directly ordered the people to grab it. .”
Master Yu and Master Xia stopped talking, and the result of this matter can be known based on the low evaluation received by Magistrate Luo.
Inspector He said: "What do the common people know? It's just that they do what the officials tell them to do. Seeing that some landlords' homes are robbing them, and Lizheng told the county magistrate's order, they rushed to rob them. The rain also had to be harvested, and the rice was still green at that time.”
"It even affected the neighboring county. The magistrate of the neighboring county sent officials to guard the field and strictly prohibited people from harvesting. That's why the rice in the field was kept," said Governor He: "That rain fell intermittently for another five One day, when the water in the river was almost overflowing, it stopped, and then the sun shone brightly, directly for ten days, and the drooping rice quickly turned yellow, and it could be harvested in half a month."
Master Yu and Master Xia didn’t speak for a while, they were both local officials, and they knew how important the last 10 or 20 days of rice are. If there is enough sunshine and no shortage of water, they can quickly grow rice within 20 days. Full-bodied, ripe and can double its weight.
"There is a difference of fifteen to twenty days before and after, and the yield per mu of the neighboring county is twice that of Luoyang County. Although generally speaking, Luoyang County can solve this natural and man-made disaster on its own, and will not ask the court, but in detail I went to every household, because of the early harvest, I don’t know how many people need to sell their fields, and even sell their children to survive this year.”
So Governor He directly gave him an inferior evaluation back then, and even wrote a letter to Yushitai and the emperor to sue him, suggesting that the court change the county magistrate for him.
However, the imperial court has its own procedures, and it will not completely deny a person just because of a single mistake, so he did not change the county magistrate.
But in the second year, Governor He only gave him a moderate evaluation on the grounds that he could not handle the post-disaster well and properly arrange the people after the disaster.
Inspector He didn't directly say whether he likes County Magistrate Luo, nor does he directly comment on him. Instead, after explaining the reasons for his criticism, he looked at the four adults, "What do you think the four adults think of County Magistrate Luo?"
Lord Yu and Lord Xia didn't speak, but Imperial Physician Lu snorted directly and said, "You idiot, I'm better than him when I'm a county magistrate."
Doctor Xiao Tan tugged at his sleeves, telling him to keep a low profile.
Governor He smiled, leaned on the pillow and closed his eyes slightly.
He talks too much today and is tired.
Imperial Physician Lu felt his pulse, nodded to several people, and everyone got up and said goodbye.
Governor He didn't stop them either.
After going out, Mrs. He personally led the people to serve them tea and snacks.
Mrs. Yu quickly stood up and saluted to thank her. Mrs. He had a very good attitude, especially towards Imperial Physician Lu and Imperial Physician Xiao Tan with a smile on her face.
After some thanks, she seemed to mention it unintentionally, "Master Xiao Zheng from the medical office also came to see my master when he was just sick. He also said at that time that if his master came, he might be able to cure my master."
"It's a pity that Imperial Physician Zhou is the pillar of the country. It is not easy to leave Beijing. We have never dared to force it. But I heard that she has also arrived in Luoyang recently?"
Master Yu paused the hand holding the teacup, and froze slightly. He finally understood why they were able to meet Master He who was seriously ill so smoothly.
Lord Yu and Lord Xia bowed their heads to drink tea, and sneaked a look at Imperial Physician Lu.
Physician Lu: ...
Seeing that they did not speak, Imperial Physician Xiao Tan feared that it would be embarrassing to wait any longer, so he hurriedly said: "Principal Zhou is in Prince Gong's mansion, how about this, I will discuss with Imperial Physician Zhou first to see if she can spare time to come, if so , we will visit again.”
Mrs. He immediately said gratefully: "Thank you, sir."
She pressed the corners of her eyes with a veil and said: "I also know that my master's illness is not curable, and I didn't expect him to be cured. I just want him to feel better. The adults still see him today. Okay, but I don't know that he usually, especially at night, is in pain all night long, and can't sleep at all... "
Master Yu sighed when he heard the words, and said: "We will try our best to invite Imperial Physician Zhou to come and have a look, but Madam also knows that Imperial Doctor Zhou also has a sacred order to come here, so I don't dare to wait if she can spare time to come here ensure."
Mrs. He expressed her understanding, and she enthusiastically sent the four of them out, and even sent consultation fees to Imperial Physician Lu and Imperial Physician Xiao Tan.
But both of them declined, and when they returned to the medical office, Master Yu still sent someone to Prince Gong's Mansion to deliver the letter.
The next day Zhou Man found an excuse to slip out and spent the whole day with Prince Gong to lose weight, she was also very tired, okay
When she heard that she was treating people, she didn't dislike her, she turned her head and asked Imperial Physician Lu, "What kind of illness is he?"
Doctor Lu said: "The accumulation should be the accumulation in the stomach."
Doctor Xiao Tan said: "It's also called nausea, basically it's hopeless, but it's really uncomfortable. When we went, he was holding back the pain to talk to us. His Majesty sent Doctor Shi to come here before." Look, the He family should also know that this disease cannot be cured, and all they want is for Governor He to feel better in the remaining time."
