Lu Bu’s Life Simulator

In May, Diao Chan gave birth to two sons and two daughters to Lu Bu. For Lu Bu, this was actually perfect.

Because he had been diverting water around these days, Lu Bu had hardly been back to Chang'an, and he hadn't seen him for several months. This night was naturally full of passion, and under the tent, the woman moaned and sobbed all night long.

When it got quiet, it was already dawn. Yan lay softly on Lu Bu's chest, her silky hair hanging down, making her face unclear. He just let Lu Bu hold her in his arms, enjoying the afterglow of the reunion. .

"How long can your husband stay this time?" Yan's voice was soft and lazily lingering, making people want to immerse themselves in her body. He whispered softly into their ears, making Lu Bu almost take control again. Can't live.

"We can't say for sure. There is a severe drought in Guanzhong this year. Now that the autumn harvest is around the corner, people have no food in their homes. Relief is urgent. They may go out at any time." Lu Bu suppressed his impulse, hugged his wife's frail and delicate body, and stretched out his long arms. He sighed, only at this time would he feel that he was still very young.

All kinds of things in Guanzhong are sometimes more tiring than fighting. There are too many things to worry about, and your family will be neglected unconsciously.

Yan lay on Lu Bu and said nothing. Although she was not as powerful as she is now, Lu Bu spent a lot of time with her. At that time, she actually hoped that her husband could go further and make their lives better. It would be best if he could In Zhongyuan District, there is no need to stay in Bingzhou.

Now her wish has come true, Lu Bu has the power over the world, and their family can basically have everything they want, but her husband spends a lot less time with her.

Sometimes people are like this and can never achieve perfection. If he can really achieve it, then Lu Bu may not be far from defeat, or he will be old and hand over all his rights.

Rights are also a kind of responsibility. The moment you hold it in your hands, it is destined to be difficult to relax.

Of course, when there is no big event, Lu Bu is actually quite leisurely, because when there is no big event, the daily things are basically trivial and repetitive things. Most officials are doing these things, so Lu Bu doesn't have to worry about it. Just check it regularly.

Compared with copywriting, if you spend more time among the people, you may be able to better detect the inadequacies of government orders and make timely changes.

But if something happens, like this severe drought in Guanzhong, then Lu Bu must come out and shoulder all these things without any hesitation. This is the greatest responsibility of a prince to the people under his rule.

"Husband, wouldn't it be easier to manage in Chang'an? If you are among the people all day long, even though you try your best, the people you care about are not big enough, will you lose more than you gain?" Yan suddenly thought of something and looked up at Lu Bu .

"Madam is quite smart. Logically speaking, what she said is of course right." Lu Bu couldn't help but pat her when he heard this, and then said with a smile: "But in fact, the civil and military officials of this dynasty don't have the guts to act arbitrarily. , even if I am not here, they will be more relaxed at most, and they will definitely not go against the rules, but this is different at the grassroots level."

Yan lay on Lu Bu's body and listened to his heartbeat quietly. Hearing this, he asked doubtfully: "What's the difference?"

"In the past, when government orders came to the countryside, they were not controlled by the court but by the three elders. There was nothing wrong with it." Lu Bu thought.

"Then..." Yan looked at Lu Bu, a little confused. If that's the case, why does Lu Bu always hang out among the people?

"These three elders and Li Zhengmokan are not even official officials, but they are local powerful people. The Central Plains is different from the north." Lu Bu said with a smile.

"What's the difference?" Yan was puzzled.

"When we were in Bingzhou, because there were always barbarians who might invade, everyone could help each other no matter where they were, and there were not so many twists and turns. But in the Central Plains, without foreign enemies, there were many fields between these villages. It will be gradually cannibalized by the three elders and lizheng. Generally speaking, most people live in li, with one family living in one li. The people in the li are either tribesmen or tenants. Therefore, even if the court distributes disaster relief food, if no one is watching, it may be possible in the middle of the night. It cannot reach the hands of the people." Lu Bu sneered.

"You don't care about the life and death of the people?" Yan looked at Lu Bu in shock.

Although they were an old couple, his wife's attitude and angle made Lu Bu's heart flutter again at that moment. His heartbeat would take action, and his wife quickly noticed it and quickly held him down, looking at him pleadingly. Unable to bear the whipping.

"If rights are not restricted, people sometimes become different from human beings. For them, as long as they can't see it, they haven't done anything!" Lu Bu snorted coldly.

When there are foreign enemies in poverty, people will spontaneously band together. But when the foreign enemies are gone and people become rich, selfishness and greed will follow one after another. People who hold power but lack restraint will naturally form local tyrants, even if Lu Bu killed a group, but new ones would soon form. This is why Lu Bu stayed outside and never came back.

Thanks to the fact that most of the last batch of powerful people were paid off, there is now a power vacuum in the countryside, and the new land tax method has also suppressed the birth of new powerful people to a certain extent. However, during this time of disaster relief, the court's disaster relief Food is distributed from level to level, and the last step is to fall into the hands of these three elders and Li Zheng first.

In the past, those powerful men would pay more attention to their appearance and cherish their reputation, but these new three elders may not be so strict with rules. Lu Bu naturally needs to pay more attention to it. If he walks around, if the people are being persecuted, he should directly follow them. He said that after verification, everyone would be executed directly.

It may be too much, but at this time, the slightest softness of heart can become an ant nest, and there is no need to be careless.

"So, I can only force my wife to stay in the empty house for a while. After this disaster relief is over, there will definitely be a good year next year." Lu Bu said, his hands becoming dishonest again.

Yan had been nourished all night. Although she was tired now, she was in good spirits. Hearing this, she just glared at Lu Bu angrily and said, "I know that your husband has been working hard these days, and I can't bear the whipping. Why don't you go find the Wang family's sister?" ?”

Lu Bu laughed loudly when he heard this, shook his head, and hugged her tighter: "No, my husband is not just an animal who only knows these things, but he is exhausted. Madam, please rest quickly and go have breakfast later." meal."

"Hmm~"

Yan was in good spirits, but her body was indeed exhausted, and she fell into a deep sleep not long after hearing this.

It was already bright outside the window. After Lu Bu comforted his wife, he got dressed and went out. It was naturally impossible to do such things as prostitution in the daytime. After asking Wang Yi and Diao Chan to take care of Yan, Lu Bu went out again.

In the past two days, Chang'an has to determine the amount of food allocated. Previously, the entire Weiwei Office had been calculating the food and grass that needed relief, plus the losses during the transportation of food, etc., all had to be carefully considered.

Now that it was time to finalize, not only did Lu Bu have to confirm, but such a major matter also had to be discussed in the court. Of course, it was mainly for Liu Xie to hear. As for whether the officials would debate it for ten or twenty days, They just ignored it and put disaster relief first. As for what money should be spent and what money shouldn't be spent, they slowly discussed it. Anyway, it was Lu Bu's hand that passed the process and not necessarily the approval of the officials.

If Lu Bu thinks it works, then he will change it. If it doesn't work, he will change it. The fewer people who have to deal with this matter, the better.

According to the results of discussions between Lu Bu, Jia Xu and others, after the disaster relief is sent from the imperial court, it has to go through three steps: the prefect, the county magistrate, and then the three elders and Li Zheng. The link is already very simple, but these three steps still need to be completed. There is someone to supervise, and it cannot be a system, so Lu Bu brought in many officials from Xiliang to temporarily set up a supervision system. At the same time, he also sent people directly to the countryside to publicize how much grain the court had distributed and how much food each family could share. To what extent, if there is too much access to the trees, you can tell the people sent by the army to the area within three days of getting the food.

If the report is made after three days, it will not be easy for the court to investigate. After all, if someone deliberately receives the food, eats and drinks, and then comes here to complain, it can easily lead to unjust, false, and wrongful convictions.

It is impossible to make no mistakes at all, but Lu Bu has to ensure that the people can survive this year until the autumn harvest next year. God has to give face to this. Don't let yourself suffer from another severe drought next year. If it happens again, don't say anything. It's Lu Bu, even if the gods come, there's nothing he can do about it.

In addition to the drought this year, there were two earthquakes in May. Although the scale was not large, it also shocked Lu Bu into a cold sweat. The severe drought in Guanzhong was already sad. If there were two more earthquakes, even if Lu Bu was in his current state of mind, Everyone will have the urge to carry Fang Tian's painted halberd and cut the sky!

When they arrived at the government office, Xun You had already taken Wei Jian to handle official duties, while Jia Xu was drinking tea. When he saw Lu Bu, he poured a bowl for him.

"Is there any news from Fengxiao?" Lu Bu asked. Although only the finishing touches were left on the Hedong side, this was Guo Jia's first time presiding over something, and he was worried that Guo Jia was inexperienced or unable to control the situation.

"Don't worry, my lord. General Hua Xiong is here, so I can serve you without any worries." Jia Xu took a sip of tea, then looked at Lu Bu and said with a smile, "But the position of governor of Hedong is limited. Who do you plan to appoint as the governor of Hedong?"

All the wealthy families in the land east of Hedong were wiped out by Lu Bu. Even if there were fish that slipped through the net, they would not be able to make any waves. At this time, the governor of Hedong was a fat man. There was salt in Hedong and there were a lot of fertile fields. He controlled this place. Treasure land.

"Who?" Lu Bu had really thought about this matter seriously. Hearing this, he turned to look at Jia Xu and said, "Does Wen He have a good talent to recommend him?"

"Not yet." Jia Xu shook his head. He would not do such a thing easily. Lu Bu obviously hated what he did in the past. How could he commit such a taboo? He smiled and said: "It's just that the east of the river is a fertile land, and it is also the place with the richest population except Nanyang, so the selection of the governor and general here needs to be carefully considered."

Lu Bu nodded: "The prefect does have someone he likes. Wen He thinks, what about Xinfeng Ling Zhang Ji?"

"There is obviously something extraordinary about being able to be valued by the lord. Since he has indeed made great achievements since taking office, this person is certainly qualified for the job." Jia Xu nodded with a smile.
