Chapter 168 Extreme Heat 2

Lu Ming frowned tightly, and fanned the wind again and again. He has a body that is not difficult to get hot, and he sweated a lot when it was hot.

Although she wears an inner garment, she usually wears an official uniform when she goes to the county magistrate's office, and when she works, a lot of prickly heat develops on her fair skin.

"Daughter-in-law, my neck is so itchy. Didn't the ghost doctor send me some ointment just now, please apply some ointment to me."

After pouring the water, Lin Han turned around and saw that Lu Ming's neck was red from scratching, and there were even bloodshot spots.

He quickly washed his hands with water, patted off Lu Ming's scratching hands, and took out the ointment.

"It's all scratched, don't scratch it."

Lu Ming developed a prickly heat rash, and the itching was unbearable. In the bedroom and baby room, ice basins were placed every day to cool down.

Lu Ming counted the money he spent every day, feeling pain in his heart, and hated the high temperature for days.

The cool ointment, with a faint medicinal fragrance, after applying it for a while, Lu Ming felt that the original pain and itching were relieved.

Looking at Lin Han who was still neatly dressed, but there was no sweat on his forehead, he said, "It's good to have internal strength, and it can adjust itself, just like the central air conditioner."

That voice is one of envy, jealousy and hatred!

Lin Han took a fan and fanned him, with a smile on his lips. Although he didn't know what a central air conditioner was, it was interesting to see Lu Ming's expression.

"Daughter-in-law, you are so happy when your husband is suffering. I need comfort."

A smile flashed in Lin Han's eyes, he leaned over and kissed the corner of his lips, and whispered: "What comfort do you want, just say it, I will definitely do it for my husband"

Lin Han's unique deep and thick voice fascinated Lu Ming.

Although you can't eat dinner, you must have small desserts before meals.

There was no rain on the [-]th, and even the river water in the mountains behind Lanyu dropped a lot, and most of the wells in the city could no longer get water.

Lu Ming issued a water restriction announcement, and each household drew water by head.

The people who line up to get water every day are long queues and endless streams.

Every household got up before dawn and lined up to fetch water.

As the head of a county, Lu Ming leads by example. The water in the house is all lined up with his own wife.

So although life was a bit difficult, as a parent official, he shared joys and sorrows with the local people and won Lu Ming a virtuous name.

But Fatty Du is not so happy now. Lu Ming's vengeful and narrow-minded personality has not changed at all.

After the matter fermented, Lu Ming asked Mei Luoyue to send out spies to spread the news in various counties, saying that the imperial court had allocated relief money for the drought.

Seeing the people with no crops, and seeing the officials at all levels in Lanzhou who are rich in fish and meat every day.

All of a sudden, there were complaints from the people.

Originally thought that Fatty Du would release at least part of the money due to public opinion and public opinion, to relieve the urgent need.

However, Lu Ming greatly underestimated his greed. As the magistrate of the state, Fatty Du not only did not appease the people, but was eager to give gifts to his superiors at such a critical time.

And under the guise of drought, repairing wells, and building water conservancy projects, taxes were increased.

All the while, the people's anger was on the verge of breaking out. ,

The people went to the gate of the state capital to sue the local parents and officials, lied about the local truth, and corrupted the law.

What surprised and annoyed Lu Ming the most was that at such a juncture, Fatty Du allowed the grain merchants in Lanzhou City to raise prices collectively.

And imprisoned the leading people who came to complain, saying that they gathered a crowd to make trouble and despised etiquette.

Many famous scholars and Confucianists handed in petitions one after another, pleading for grievances for the prisoners, but they were all turned away.

After spending several hours under the scorching sun, one after another fainted from heat stroke.

The people above the state capital clashed with the yamen servants, and blood flowed like rivers.

Lanzhou city closed the traffic arteries, warnings from door to door, and strictly prohibited to sue.

The common people have no way to redress their grievances, which makes every day unresponsible and the land not working.

Lu Ming was very angry when he heard the words, and immediately ordered people to go deep into the people secretly, unite with the people in Lanzhou, write a letter to the people, and find someone to go to Beijing to file an imperial complaint. The higher the profile, the better.
