Nongmen's elder sister-in-law is the richest in the world

Chapter 829 The new residence is completed!

The government has always cracked down on bandits, and the rebelliousness of the bandits is the most troublesome.

Now these people are so well-mannered, and there are even quite a few small groups of bandit soldiers who surrendered before they came to the door. This phenomenon can be said to be extremely rare!
During the period, Li Zhifu asked a group of bandits who voluntarily surrendered in the courtroom why they voluntarily surrendered, and then the other party replied that the soldiers led by Shen Zhan were so powerful that they could find them no matter where they went, and then they thought Those bandits who were bigger and more powerful than them were all arrested by Shen Zhan and "the whole army arrested them", so their luck was wiped out.

I don't know that the imperial court would lightly punish bandits who surrendered themselves, so they simply surrendered. Firstly, they could reduce their crimes, secondly, they could suffer less in the mountains, and thirdly, they would fall into the hands of capable people like Shen Zhan. Also convinced.

So after that, Shen Zhan's reputation as the nemesis of bandits became more and more resounding because of his bravery, ingenuity, clever calculations and skillful use of soldiers.

Now when it comes to Shen Zhan outside, everyone will stick out their thumbs and call him a great hero for suppressing bandits.

After hearing about this incident, the atmosphere of the Shen family, which had been depressed because of the case of Liu Ergou and Chen Cuihua, was suddenly shaken. Mother Shen and the others couldn't help being very happy for Shen Zhan when they heard the news, because Shen Zhan had made this achievement Even if he can't be directly promoted to a military position in the future, his future in the army will definitely be more prosperous.

……

In the blink of an eye, a month later.

After entering July, not only is there still no rain in Ding'an Prefecture, but the temperature is getting higher and higher, and the surface is becoming more and more dry.

Even in Qinghe Village where Shen Jianwan and the others live, the water level of the Qingshui River in their village has dropped to less than one-third of what it was last year.

As of now, less than half of the surrounding people have planted rice, and more than half of the paddy fields cannot even insert seedlings because of lack of water.

Not only Shen Jianwan's Qinghe Village where they live is like this, but their entire Pingyang County is similar, and the situation in some towns is even worse than theirs. I heard that in some places, the entire town's rice can't be planted.

So as the time for summer planting is about to pass, the people can't help but feel more and more worried. If they miss the season, it will mean that they will be hungry in the second half of the year and before next year's summer harvest.

In the midst of this anxiety, more and more people came to buy sweet potato seedlings from Shen Jianwan's family. At first, everyone just wanted to plant sweet potatoes on the driest part of the dry land in the house, and later all the dry land was used to grow sweet potatoes. , and now that the summer planting season is coming to an end, the big guys are starting to think about planting sweet potatoes in the paddy fields that cannot be planted.

In addition to the drier and worrying weather, many things have happened around Shen Jianwan in the past month.

First of all, as expected by Shen Jianwan, after Zhong Wang's people intervened in the case of Liu Ergou and Chen Cuihua poisoning Shen, the government pronounced the case within two days. Unable to file a case, Liu Ergou and Chen Cuihua were released from prison.

And this judgment was made by King Zhong himself. King Zhong was currently inspecting the construction progress of the canal in their Ding'an mansion. People's affairs will be personally involved.

Then the case of Liu Ergou and Chen Cuihua was brought before him by his subordinates, and he personally passed the verdict on it.

As soon as this incident happened, there was a lot of heated discussion and anger in their Pingyang County, because it was obvious whether Liu Ergou and Chen Cuihua poisoned Mrs. Shen.

However, when everyone was angry at the government's verdict, King Zhong quickly released the words, saying that the reason why His Royal Highness Zhong Wang made such a judgment was not that Liu Ergou and Chen Cuihua were innocent, but that His Royal Highness Zhong Wang He has always been extremely kind to his subjects below,

Therefore, even though Liu Ergou and Chen Cuihua might have killed the Shen family, there is no evidence that His Royal Highness Zhongwang would not kill them by mistake. Starting this way will make it easy for the officials behind to handle the case without witnesses and material evidence to convict, which will lead to many unjust, false and wrongly decided cases.

Therefore, in order not to cause unjust, false and wrongly decided cases and let the people be convicted innocently, His Royal Highness Zhong Wang finally decided to release Liu Ergou and Chen Cuihua.

As soon as this statement came out, the people who were originally outraged really calmed down. Although they still felt that it was inappropriate to let Liu Ergou and Chen Cuihua go, they agreed with King Zhong's statement that it is not appropriate to convict a case without physical evidence. Otherwise, it will indeed cause more human tragedies.

After this incident, King Zhong's reputation was greatly shaken in their Pingyang County and even in the entire Ding'an Mansion for a while.

As for Shen Jianwan, she said that Zhong Wang made a name for the case related to their Shen family, and she remembered this account!

With the memories of her previous life, she doesn't believe even a single punctuation mark, that the other party who will collude with other countries to rebel in the next winter will really love the people like a child.

Afterwards, Shen Jianwan never thought that the opportunity for them to repay the loyal king would come so soon!

As soon as the case of Liu Ergou and Chen Cuihua was judged, Shen Zhan was unexpectedly assigned by the court to Qiu'an Mansion next door to them to put down the bandits.

It is said that it was because the court knew that Shen Zhan was very talented in suppressing bandits, so he was appointed to go to Qiu'an Mansion to put down the bandits.

So Shen Jianwan, who originally planned to go to Qiu'an Mansion to see Mrs. Ru, went to Qiu'an Mansion together with Shen Zhan.

But when they first arrived at Qiu'an Mansion, they were shocked to find that His Royal Highness King Zhong's people were actually setting fire to the mountain to capture bandits, because the weather was dry and the fire was so intense that they could see the flames soaring into the sky from a distance!

Shen Jianwan never expected that the loyal king's people would start setting fire to the mountain to exterminate the bandits at such an early age. Seeing this scene, Shen Zhan and his border colleagues and colleagues who were sent to support Qiu'an Mansion to exterminate the bandits The soldiers of Ding'an Mansion rushed to check.

Later, Shen Zhanli refuted the matter of King Zhong Fang setting fire to the mountain, and led his men and the soldiers of Qiushui Mansion to help put out the fire.

Fortunately, because Shen Zhan led the soldiers to put out the fire in time, the surrounding people also actively protected their homes, and Shen Jianwan also went to the scene to treat the injured people and soldiers, so the fire did not reach the nearby city. to and cause the death of persons.

Because Shen Jianwan had a prophet, she knew that the fire would probably burn down the surrounding villages, and she asked Shen Zhan to send people to evacuate the people, livestock and property in these villages in advance, so although the fire still burned down several villages in the end, But to avoid casualties and property losses!
