Chapter 402: Good News
As for being scolded so much that it hurts self-esteem and the like, the master doesn't have it at all. Pen %fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info for so many years, he has been bending to welcome Wang Dingguo, and he has only gotten the comfortable and decent life he has now, so he has long been accustomed to Wang Dingguo's unprovoked scolding.
Only bitter Wang Dingguo, when he thought of clearing the bandits in Guanyin Mountain, he couldn't help but tremble, but he was also given a gag order by Zhao Mill, this matter must not be talked about to anyone, so he could only endure the torment and destruction in his heart alone, and let Zhao Mill command at any time.
Thinking about it this way, Wang Dingguo couldn't help but have a trace of anticipation for the suppression of the bandits in Guanyin Mountain, which he was very afraid of.
It's better to end this matter earlier, so that he can continue to be his own leisurely and happy prefect!
After Zhao Mo returned to Honghe County, he briefly mentioned this matter to Liu Shi, and scolded with a smile: "With a cowardly and incompetent person like Wang Dingguo in charge of Xichuan Mansion, I can't complain that the gang of thieves in Guanyin Mountain can become bigger, so that it is difficult to clean up now!" ”
Liu Zhi knew that there was an element of anger in Zhao Miao's words, and he was upset because he had been maliciously suppressed by Wang Dingguo before, and his heart was moved.
After all, Wang Dingguo's appointment as the prefect of Xichuan Prefecture has only been a matter of recent years.
But if you think about it carefully, Zhao Mian is right.
If it weren't for the fact that the successive governors of Xichuan Prefecture were all like Wang Dingguo, with the idea of not doing well, getting by, and successfully returning to their hometowns after doing this term, the thieves of Guanyin Mountain would have a strong background, and if they wanted to reach such a huge force that could compete with the forces of a government today, I am afraid that it would take a lot of effort, where could it be so easy.
After everything was in order, Zhao Mo began to find a way to slowly infiltrate the strict internal defense line of the Guanyin Mountain bandits.
Liu Shi also cheered up the spirit of 120,000 points and was careful to deal with it.
The arming of the entire Honghe County does not seem to have changed much on the surface, but it is becoming more and more tight inside.
As soon as Nuan Nuan's third birthday passed, Liu Zhi received a letter from Zhang Minghua, who was far away in the capital, saying that he had passed the Gongshi examination, although the ranking was relatively low, but he was finally able to participate in the palace examination smoothly. Regarding the results of the palace examination, Zhang Minghua did not dare to have great expectations.
Liu Shi encouraged in his reply to Zhang Minghua that it is not advisable to be presumptuous, we must abandon distracting thoughts, and calm down to prepare for the exam, do not leave regrets for our future, as for the result, then leave it to fate to decide.
Zhang Minghua is humble, cautious, easy-going and kind, and has a good relationship with everyone on weekdays, so after getting the good news that he was admitted to the Gongshi, everyone was very happy and congratulated him.
Liu Shi also relayed everyone's congratulations in the letter.
Even Nuan Nuan clapped her hands happily after hearing the good news that Zhang Minghua was on the list: "Mr. Zhang passed the exam, it's really good!" In this way, he can continue to be an official with his father in the future! ”
Liu Shi heard Nuan Nuan's words and said with a smile: "Nuan Nuan, if Mr. Zhang passes the Jinshi examination, he can no longer follow his father to serve as an official." ”
Nuan Nuan was puzzled, looked up and asked suspiciously, "Why?" ”
"Because Mr. Zhang also has his own ambitions, how can he always be a subordinate official under his father." Liu Shi explained with a smile.
Nuan Nuan was still puzzled, put her hands on her cheeks, and asked with a face.
Liu Shi made an analogy: "This is like Nuan Nuan and her younger brothers." Nuan Nuan loves her younger brothers and takes good care of them, and her younger brothers are happy to play with Nuan Nuan, but in the future, Nuan Nuan grows up and wants to do something else, or when the younger brothers grow up and have their own preferences, can you still play together every day? ”
Nuan Nuan seemed to understand whether she understood or not, but she said very firmly: "I will always love and take care of my younger brothers!" ”
The bright eyes were full of seriousness, and the clenched little fists were full of firmness.
Liu saw such a warm and warm heart, and his heart was full of relief, touched her little head, and praised with a smile: "Nuan Nuan is good, she really deserves to be a big sister, and she knows how to love her younger brothers!" ”
When Liu Shi said this, he didn't expect that in the future, when a pair of young children grew up, they would be "oppressed" by the domineering Nuan Nuan to "dare to be angry and dare not speak" and "tears were in their eyes".
In May in Honghe County, the weather is already very hot, except in the early morning and evening, people usually dare not go out during the day.
In this way, the people will stay at home to escape the heat, and the guard work in the county will be much lighter.
And Zhao Mo finally succeeded in sending people into the Guanyin Mountain Cottage, just waiting for his people to report back the specific deployment situation and the number of troops in the Guanyin Mountain Cottage, carefully refer to the details, and formulate a strategy for capturing and suppressing.
When Peng Jin saw Liu Zhi pondering alone, his eyebrows were more solemn than before, and there was even a hint of eager anticipation, knowing that he and Mr. Zhao had made important progress in their planning, and even at the most critical moment, victory was in sight.
Liu Shi didn't say what it was, and Peng Jin couldn't make any inquisitions, let alone make suggestions, what she could do was to tell everyone to perform their duties, take care of the inner courtyard, take care of the three children, and let Liu Shi go to his career without worries and realize his ambitions.
In mid-June, it is the "100-day gift" for a pair of young sons, and it is also the annual "double robbery season".
Because of Liu Shi's kindness, even if the fields are busy, the people specially take the time to go to the county government to offer their own hearts, or a small basket of eggs, or a basket of vegetables and melons, all of which are piled up at the gate of the county government.
The gifts are not expensive, they are all home-made things, but they are better than the sincere congratulations.
After the flood in Honghe County, there was a great drought, thanks to Liu Shi's precautions, a lot of reservoirs were built in advance, which was rich in water, which allowed them to survive this "double robbery season", not to mention that the granary was full, and they could look forward to the next season's harvest.
Thinking of the series of measures taken by Liu Shi to benefit the people since his arrival, the people are grateful - Liu Zhi not only let them be fed and clothed, and avoid "military disasters and demon disasters", but more importantly, they have established many Mongolian schools, so that their children can read and write with less or even no friendship!
In the eyes of the people, the fact that these children from poor families can go to school, read and write, is a great creation, and it is also an important opportunity to change the fate of their ancestors.
They are not afraid of their own hardship, but they all hope that their children will no longer have to deal with the soil all their lives like them, barely making ends meet.
Who doesn't want their children to have a future, be a big official, and glorify their ancestors, just like Liang Shan, the magistrate of Shanghe County in the neighboring country! (To be continued.) )
