Chapter 171 The Vortex of the Struggle 8

"What, the official family let you and the prince go to the city and retreat, which bastard's bad idea. Shen silently glared at the beads of his eyes, almost shouting at the top of his voice.

Although Wang Xiu, the public chef in the yamen of the public office, is an eight-rank official, he is the actual person in charge of the office, and even those officials and judges who are higher in rank than him eat as exquisite as him, and he also enjoys the right to eat in the public hall alone.

However, he was reluctant to engage in specialization, and at his insistence, everyone ate in the public kitchen, and the dishes were not discriminated equally, which made him a great popularity, and not every chief official was willing to be average.

Today, he built a meal when everyone was eating, and the tail of the monthly public chef's food was divided equally among everyone, regardless of the official quality, which was supported by everyone.

The cost of the public chef's food is simply not finished, and other yamen are distributed according to the size of their official positions, the Prime Minister's Office for National Affairs has been newly established, and the grade of the officials transferred in is generally not high, only a few are medium-sized civil officials, and if the majority of people are not evenly divided, they will suffer.

Everyone was eating in the hall, and they were talking and laughing just now, how could you be embarrassed to oppose it in front of other people, if you really said it cheekily, it would be spread throughout Kaifeng. Maybe it can be in the tabloids, and then it will be a big shame, and at least it will have to be labeled as mercenary.

The envoy in the palace hurriedly came to announce the decree, not only Wang Xiu was shocked, but even the officials in the hall were staring at each other.

Let Wang Xiu go to the city and retreat, isn't this nonsense, do you think that people are really Penglai scattered immortals, and they don't bring such a thing, some people said at that time that it was demonic bewitchment.

Wang Xiu was so confused that he couldn't figure it out, so he asked everyone to disperse quietly, and returned to the public hall to sort out his thoughts, and followed up silently to fight the grievances.

Wang Xiu shook his hand to stop Shen Mo's noise, he needed time to weigh it, Shen Mo also knew Wang Xiu's temperament, so he found a high-backed chair to sit down and wait.

It didn't take too long, Wang Xiu combined his memory to conclude that this was Lin Lingsu's ghost, maybe he interfered too deeply in history, and there was a scene on the Ning God Temple by mistake, which made Zhao Huan, Lin Lingsu and him have a shocking relationship, which directly promoted the battle between Lin Lingsu and the prince, which evolved into a fight between the three of them, and he was a sad framed, the one who was shot while lying down

It seems that Lin Lingsu, who was born at the grassroots, is still too narrow-minded to tolerate others once, and this kind of strength is fatal in officialdom. However, he also laughed at himself, the last time he sold a favor to the prince in the Ning God Temple, Zhao Huan did not admit it, and he was also remembered by Lin Daxian, saying that it was not an exaggeration to lose his wife and lose his soldiers.

It is also a loss for Lin Daxian to think that he has no choice but to transfer the disaster to others, and he is not a son of man

"Brother Zhizhi, you are in the yamen to appease your colleagues, and I will come when I go." Since it is spread on the head, if it can't be done, you have to bite the bullet.

Shen Mo was taken aback, stood up and said in a deep voice: "You have to think clearly, there is obviously something greasy in this, and you are still drilling into other people's traps."

"Don't you drill it" Wang Xiu smiled bitterly and said bitterly: "It's clear that the Jinmen Yuke of Shenxiao Mansion can't retreat from the water." ”

Shen Mo took a cool breath, his eyes were unbearable and reluctant, and he was more shocked, slapped his lips, wanted to speak but couldn't speak.

"Okay, there must be a road before the car reaches the mountain, wait for me to come back." Wang Xiu patted Shen Mo's shoulder, faintly revealing the confidence of the superior.

Shen Mo turned his head to look at Wang Xiu, touched his tenacious and confident gaze, and couldn't help but nodded.

Wang Xiu did not delay any time, and left the yamen to go on the horse, leaving behind the colleagues who were sent out of the yamen, and they all looked complicated to send Wang Xiu.

Shen Mo was in a heavy mood, but he still said with a smile: "Since Lord Wang has gone, the water will definitely recede, everyone go back to work, don't let the adults come back and see Dahui lazy." ”

Everyone laughed for a while, and the dull atmosphere was washed away a lot, of course, there were some people who had other thoughts, calculating the problem that Wang Xiu could not retreat from the water, and examining the words in Zhufang was a good way to get promoted, and no one thought that the official was small.

But said that Wang Xiu had just arrived at Fengqiumen, and he saw the grand occasion of the crowd, if the dense population of Kaifeng Mansion in Tokyo sweated into rain, it seems that it is not wrong at all today, and even the forbidden army in front of the palace sent a large number of officials, how to look at it is a drop in the bucket.

"Isn't this Wang Jiuchang, why did he come?"

"Didn't you have long ears, didn't Kaifeng Mansion announce it just now, please ask the prince and the prince to go to the city and retreat."

"Prince. You said that the prince is almost inseparable from the retreat of the water when he ascends the city, how can this Wang Jiu change his virtue, he can also retreat from the water"

"It's really stupid to say that you are stupid, I don't know that Wang Jiubian is a Penglai Sanxian, but he is the disciple of Emperor Taishang Laojun of the Mixed Yuan Emperor."

"Hell, this. You also believe in Lin Lingsu's demonic words, Wang Jiubian has never admitted it. ”

"Not admitting it doesn't mean it's not, I heard from a friend that that time in the palace, Wang Jiubian clashed with the demon way."

"It's impossible, they're all Taoists, how can they conflict?"

"Idiot, people are too subordinate to the door, and they are cultivating freely and naturally, which is like a demon Tao is a genuine official."

"I see, my brother is really knowledgeable."

"However, it's hard to say whether this Wang Jiu can retreat or not."

Wang Xiu didn't know what others were saying about him, and he didn't care about it, and now he was worried. Moved to retreat to the water, don't talk nonsense, he is not a true immortal, how can he have the ability to turn over the river and the sea, if he is allowed to do the water supervisor in advance, he can also use some water conservancy knowledge to do something useful, it will be too late to say anything, I didn't see the water of the Wuzhang River overflowing

Knowing that Kaifeng Mansion Sheng Zhang and the waiter Tang Ge saw Wang Xiu, they took the initiative to greet him, Wang Xiu was ordered to retreat from the water, they knew, one gloated and watched the excitement, and the other looked complicated and sighed.

"I've seen two adults." In the face of the two ministers from the third grade, Wang Xiu's attitude was very modest, but he also bowed down slightly, and this era is not happy to bow down to that set.

Sheng Zhang said with a smile: "Zhige is not slow, I have to wait a little longer." ”

Wang Xiu said in surprise: "Wait, how long will it take to wait, are those Golden Gate Yuke still coming" The words were full of ridicule, since he came, he also accepted his fate, the big deal was that he couldn't retreat the water, and he was despised by others and then released to the county.

Sheng Zhang smiled and didn't speak, Tang Ge glanced at Sheng Zhang very dissatisfied, and secretly scolded this villain who relied on the Zhu family to steal Kaifeng Mansion, and said gently: "The Holy Oracle Prince and Zhige asked the heavens to retreat to the water. ”

Wang Xiu was shocked in his heart, Lin Lingsu was so bold, and he was not afraid to support himself, so he stretched out his black hand to the prince again and again, suppressing him by the way. This idiot Taoist is clever to the end, and all the people he offends are the top magnates, which will use Dashui to blatantly frame Zhao Huan, which is really coming to an end.

Sheng Zhang didn't pay attention to Wang Xiu, and went to the side after chatting for a few words, but Tang Ge found that Wang Xiu's face was calm, and there was no worry at all, so he couldn't help but be a little curious, and asked: "Could it be that Zhige is not worried at all when he looks at the big water of Wuzhang River?"

"If you have anything to worry about, let the destiny of heaven do your best." Wang Xiu smiled faintly and said: "A few days ago, the Lord presided over the discharge of the Wuzhang River, which is a good way to control the water, but this is also a symptom rather than a cure. ”

"Oh, this is a novelty, does Naokei have a good way" Tang Ge was interested.

"The floods are all due to heavy rains in the upstream, which causes the river to be unsmooth, and it is not a long-term solution to blindly take downstream diversion and dredging." Wang Xiu turned his head and looked at the direction of the Wuzhang River, and said: "The fundamental reason for the great river silting up is that the destruction of the forests on Shanxi Road is strict, which is far inferior to the grand occasion of seeing cattle and sheep in the wind and grassland in the Wei and Jin dynasties. The foundation of water control lies in afforestation, and the upstream is well managed, and the downstream is divided into rivers, dotted with some necessary lakes, and then the embankment is built to the real point. Hehe, it's very simple, this is something that can't be done for generations, not to mention that governing the river is a big fat meat. ”

Tang Ge also understood what Wang Xiu meant, it is common sense to nourish the source in the upstream and divide the water in the downstream, digging the lake is a bit excessive, and the imperial court still wants to fill the lake to increase the arable land.

He was about to say something, but he heard a gong to open the road, and knew that it was the prince's Donggong car that arrived, and said, "The prince has arrived, let's go to meet him first." ”

"Prince" Wang Xiu had a vague impression in his mind, but when he wanted to catch it, he disappeared, and he followed Tang Ge to greet him with all his heart.

When Zhao Huan, who was frowning, saw Wang Xiu, he was also quite surprised, but Sheng Zhang said in a low voice: "Your Highness, Wang Zhige is called to accompany His Highness to retreat. ”

Zhao Huan's eyes became complicated, and he looked at Wang Xiu and said lightly: "Lone came to retreat from the water by the holy decree of the official family, and you adults still have to help." ”

Obviously, he didn't deal with Wang Xiu, Sheng Zhang made it clear, Wang Xiu was called to come and retreat with the prince, but Zhao Heng said that everyone should work together, isn't this a slap in the face, how can it be embarrassing.

Tang Ge glanced at Wang Xiu thoughtfully, and saw that his face was calm, without the slightest hint of annoyance, and couldn't help but sigh secretly, thinking that this young man was not simple, and he was a little disappointed in Zhao Hengsheng.

Wang Xiu had no joy or sorrow, he made up his mind to go with the flow, maintain a modest attitude, followed everyone to the Fengqiu Gate, and stood in front of the incense table that had already been set up.

At the moment of entering the city, he was a little stunned, and he looked at the ocean outside the city. Well, it should be that the water has crossed the threshold, and the streets and shops outside the city are all submerged in the water, and the houses are surrounded by sandbags to build small embankments to keep out the water, but they talk about masturbation.

"It seems that the imperial court should take good care of the river." Wang Xiu said coldly, and Zhao Huan turned his head to watch.

"Your Highness, is it okay to start" Sheng Zhang whispered beside Zhao Huan. Zhao Heng nodded silently, his face was extremely pale. Wang Xiu's face was calm, still looking at the water outside the city, his eyes flickering, and no one knew what he was thinking
