The end of the world begins with the king

Chapter 539 Instructions

Chapter 539 Instructions

The reason why he wanted to walk around this village was definitely not that Zhao Yanxun was extremely bored.

He was here to check the safety of the building. After all, the villages outside the city were more dangerous, and effective protective measures had to be built.

After walking around the village and confirming that the basic protection was all right, Zhao Yanxun came to the villagers' homes again.

In addition to security protection, people's livelihood is also very important.

Therefore, he has to check the food storage of each family, and also to see if there is enough firewood.

At this moment, Zhao Yanxun was standing outside the woodshed, surrounded by many common people.

Zhou Lin wanted to send the people home, but was stopped by Zhao Yanxun. He just wanted to show the people how close he was to the people.

After all, he claims to love the people like a son, but how he loves the law has to be experienced by the common people.

Looking at the men and women kneeling in front of them, Zhao Yanxun asked calmly, "How do you get your food and firewood?"

The family kneeling in front of him was already extremely nervous at the moment, so no one answered, and they didn't know how to answer.

Zhou Lin on the side was also very nervous, so he reminded: "The prince asks you, answer truthfully!"

The reason why he was nervous was that he was afraid that these people would talk nonsense, which might make the county government's long-term efforts in vain.

At that time, even if Zhao Yanxun doesn't punish him, Zhou Lin will have a hard time in the county government.

"Return...to the prince, the food...the food is distributed by the county government!"

Zhao Yanxun then asked: "Is it issued by the county government? The county government will never let you receive food for nothing. What do they ask you to do?"

"Back... Back to the prince, for more than a month, our village has been digging canals to divert water, and the fields outside the village have been surrounded!"

"I was supposed to go chop firewood today, but when the adults came, I didn't go..."

Only Zhao Yanxun said again: "Do you know why you were asked to dig a long canal?"

"Go back to the lord, the canal can irrigate the fields, and it can also prevent those monsters!"

After answering a few more words, the man became more courageous and stopped stuttering.

Just as Zhao Yanxun continued to ask questions, more than a dozen riders came galloping from the entrance of the village, called to open the gate and entered the village.

The two leaders were Chang Anqing, the magistrate of Huiping County, and Zhang Yanlin from Qianhu.

"I don't know if these people have practiced seriously. If something goes wrong in front of the prince, Zhang Qianhu... At that time, you will have a hard time at the guard and the Privy Council!"

Hearing Chang Anqing's words, Zhang Yanlin rolled his eyes and said, "Master Chang... what do you mean by that?"

"I'm having a hard time. Don't you think it's going to be easy for you? You're not responsible for this?"

Zhang Yanlin was not stupid at all, he heard that Chang Anqing was shirking responsibility.

"This is what you said, it is for you to train..."

Before Chang Anqing finished speaking, Zhang Yanlin interrupted: "Didn't we send someone to train? But I don't know if you... have fulfilled your duty of supervision!"

Hearing this, Chang Anqing's expression turned ugly, but he didn't argue with Zhang Yanlin.

It was also at this time that they had the time to look at the surrounding environment and found that there were no crowds gathered.

"Strange...why don't you see anyone? Could it be that the prince has already left?" Chang An was full of doubts.

But I heard Zhang Yanlin say: "The monster is dead, Mr. Chang... It seems that your worries are unnecessary!"

Following the direction of Zhang Yanlin's finger, Chang Anqing saw that there was a corpse lying on the ground in the distance, and his body was beaten to pieces.

Walking along the small road in the village, they soon found the crowd and saw Zhao Yanxun in the crowd.

Chang Anqing and the two quickly got off their horses, approached and squeezed into the crowd, listening to Zhao Yanxun being questioned.

"Living outside the city, what difficulties do you have?"

"Chenhui Pingzhi County Chang Anqing (Zhang Yanlin), attend Your Highness!"

Seeing Chang Anqing paying respects, Zhao Yanxun didn't look at them at all, but waited for the answer from the man on the ground.

"Life can go on, as long as you have the strength... Xiaomin's family will not starve to death!"

Since no question was raised, Zhao Yanxun didn't ask too many questions.

He turned around slowly and looked at Chang Anqing and the two beside him.

"Get up!"

"Thank you, Your Highness!"

"One of you is the magistrate, the other is the thousand households, the other is the official of the people's parents, and the other is to keep the people safe, all of you are shouldering heavy responsibilities!"

When Zhao Yanxun spoke, both Chang Anqing bowed and listened quietly.

Turning around, Zhao Yanxun said in a deep voice: "You have managed this village very well, but I hope... not only in this village, but for all the people in Huiping County, you will be responsible for their livelihood and safety!"

"People who are officials should not only know that they have rights, but also know that they have responsibilities!"

"Do you understand?"

Chang Anqing quickly replied: "Your Highness taught, I will remember it!"

"The minister also remembers!"

At this time, Zhao Yanxun glanced at the surrounding people, and raised his voice: "Everyone...the government has powers, you must listen to the government and complete the tasks assigned by them!"

"As long as you follow the government's guidance, your life will be better and better!"

Zhao Yanxun's words were very straightforward, and everyone present could understand them.

With him, the king of Yong, personally encouraging, the hearts of the people present were full of energy.

At this moment, they have seen with their own eyes how much King Yong loves the people and how much he cares about their livelihood. With this understanding, they are naturally full of hope for the future.

"Long live the prince!" Someone in the crowd shouted, and this person was the man who led the team to kill the zombies just now.

Following his shout, the people were completely excited, and the words "Long live the prince" resounded throughout the village.

At this time, Chang Anqing came forward: "My lord, it will be noon soon, and the county town of Huiping is ahead...Please move me to eat!"

Zhao Yanxun waved his hand, and then said: "No need, I have to go back to Yuanyang!"

"Okay... let's all go to their places!"

Seeing Zhao Yanxun take a step forward, Zhang Yanlin immediately winked at his subordinates, who immediately led people to open a way.

Zhao Yanxun walked in front, Zhou Lanzhi followed closely, Chang Anqing, Chen Yu and a few others were next to them, surrounded by their guards and guard soldiers, and on the periphery were common people who were seeing each other off along the way.

Zhao Yanxun really didn't intend to go to Huiping County, and it was just a whim to visit this village.

At the entrance of the village, Zhao Yanxun stopped and signaled Zhou Lanzhi to get on the car first, then he turned around and said to everyone: "Okay, that's it, you don't have to send it off anymore!"

"Congratulations, Your Highness!"

Following Chang Anqing bowed down, the rest of the people also knelt down, and at this time Zhao Yanxun boarded the carriage.

When the carriage walked away slowly, Chang Anqing got up from the ground, and then wiped the fine sweat from his forehead.

He sighed and said: "Old Zhang, this test has finally passed!"

Zhang Yanlin didn't answer, but just nodded.

The arrival of Zhao Yanxun has brought great pressure to them both. After all, there are too many things to do, and no one can guarantee perfection.

But fortunately, the conditions that were checked today are not bad, which made the two of them feel relieved.

"We can't relax in the future, just as His Highness said... we must remember our responsibilities!"

"Indeed!"
