Chapter 69: Promotion

After statistics were made on the situation in various places, it was actually the largest casualty in Haozhou Prefecture, with 30 wounded, 233 dead, and 335 missing. Among them, Huang Zhifu's family alone injured ten people and killed seven people.

Without waiting for Jinghaihou to say anything, Huang Zhifu himself had already handed over the excerpt of the plea to Jingli. But he wasn't too worried, anyway, he was following the path of Prime Minister Yu, Prime Minister Yu was the queen mother's brother, and someone would speak for him at that time.

Jinghaihou's excerpt was sent out on the same day as Huang Zhifu, and when the accident happened, he wanted to let Qiao Chaoyang and Liu Yongan carry the black pot, and now he has made a meritorious service and really reported their credit.

Anyway, Marquis Jinghai was already a super-grade marquis as early as the first emperor, and the queen mother obviously had no intention of rewarding his family, even if she did, she had to push it away, so why not honestly give others the credit they deserve. Besides, these two are not in the pool, sooner or later they will be famous, it is better to let yourself be this Bole.

Of course, he didn't dare to say that this matter was the credit of these two, only that it was the result of the grace of heaven and the emperor's benevolence and love for the people.

The ministers secretly scolded Jing Haihou for being a sycophant, but not only did they not admit that Jing Haihou's sycophant was too good, and he couldn't go along with him.

The emperor felt that the Marquis of Jinghai was a talent, and the Tanhua he personally sealed was also a talent, and even that Liu Xiaosanyuan would be a pillar of the country in the future.

Jinghaihou has no way to seal the reward at present, but he can seal Qiao Tanhua.

I only heard the emperor happily ask the minister, "Why do I think Qiao Chaoyang's name is very familiar?" ”

"This is the Tanhualang of His Majesty's personal seal, speaking of which, this disaster can be avoided, and it is all the result of His Majesty's discernment and talent."

Emperor Zhiyuan was very proud.

When it was time to select Shu Jishi, Qiao Chaoyang didn't take any way, and he was selected lightly.

As for the prefect of Huang, because he was lame, he could not be an official again, and he could not find a suitable candidate immediately during the extraordinary period, so he had to let Han Lisheng, a fellow acquaintance, be on top, so that there was a lack of a fellow acquaintance, and the officials directly made up for Liu Chengfang.

Liu Chengfang's previous county lieutenant said that it sounded good, but he was actually just a petty official from the ninth grade, and the same acquaintance of Haozhou Mansion was from the sixth grade, which was equivalent to a promotion of three levels in a row, and when he received the appointment, the people of the whole city applauded.

When Liu Chengfang said that he wanted to send fruits to Haozhou for disaster relief, many people laughed at him behind his back, and when the appointment of Tongzhi was in hand, many people felt that he had exchanged a few truckloads of fruits for Tongzhi and made a lot of money.

Liu Chengfang made the same acquaintance, so he recommended his nephew Liu Yonghui to meet his own shortcomings.

Han Tongzhi was transferred from other places, although he was promoted to the prefect, he was a little weak, but he thought that the strong dragon would not suppress the head snake, and he wanted to borrow Liu Chengfang to achieve things, so he would not have the slightest objection.

The Liu family all have a feeling of raising their eyebrows, except for Liu Yongan's third uncle, Zhou.

"Could it be that the eldest and the second and fourth are born to a mother, and you can't pick them up?" She angrily pointed at Liu Chengjin and yelled.

Liu Chengjin was eating, and when he was roared by Diao Po Niang, his hand trembled, and the rice was splashed.

On a hot day, the rice was hot, Liu Chengjin grinned in pain, frowned and said to his mother-in-law: "Okay, what kind of nerves do you have, and you don't let people eat?" ”

"Eat! Eat! Eat! You know how to eat! Zhou stuck one hand on his waist, pointed at the man with the other and nagged away.

"If you look at the boss, how do you know how to find the fourth child to do something? Not only is his work well arranged, but even his daughter-in-law and son-in-law are stained, and the family is so comfortable! Look at the second child again, talk to the fourth child about the past feelings, not to mention being the chief of the mountain, and his son is also an official. Just you, just know how to eat, like a pig! ”

Liu Chengjin said: "You mother-in-law, you know how to talk, and you don't want to think about the fourth child who is not in the house now, how can you have the kung fu to talk nonsense with me." The eldest sister-in-law and the second sister-in-law both know that they are holding the fourth family, so you know that you are against her! Now it's useless to be red-eyed. If only I didn't blame you, you blamed me! ”

"The man himself has no ability, so he knows that the strange mother-in-law, you are out of luck!" Zhou pounced and was about to tear Liu Chengjin.

Liu Chengjin didn't let her beat her motionless as usual, but pushed her to the ground, kicked her a few times, clasped his arms with both hands, and sneered: "Brother Zhang's life is confinement, no one is served, and the sister-in-law and sister-in-law all know to take turns to help her cook and wash diapers, but you, a lazy woman, push your head today and shout tomorrow. It hurts, I just don't know how to take a hand, what's the use of complaining about me at this time? If you are so nonsense, believe it or not, Lao Tzu divorced you! ”

Just because you're a wreck, you want to divorce me!

Zhou's face turned white with anger, and without saying a word, he went back to his parents' house angrily.

The old man and the old lady of the Zhou family were long gone, and Zhou Cheng turned his head and went out when he saw his sister coming back crying.

Dong, the sister-in-law of her mother's family, just sat and did needlework and ignored her.

Or later, she couldn't hold it back, and gritted her teeth and scolded: "I'll just sit here, waiting for you to come and leave me!" After speaking, he wiped his eyes and said to Dong, "When he comes to the door, it's best to cripple him, and see if he dares to do something to me!" ”

"Liu Chengjin beat you?" Dong Shi raised his head lightly and asked.

"He dares! That! What can you do!" Zhou pouted in disgust.

"He doesn't have to do anything, just tell others that he is Liu Tongzhi's third brother, and you will regret it when the time comes." Dong sneered, "The clay figure also has three points of earthiness, let alone a big man." ”

"Phew! Isn't it just a fellow acquaintance, in exchange for stammering others, he takes himself seriously. "Zhou's color is fierce, and he doesn't choose what to say.

Dong was very angry: "Ouch, mud legs like us, if you want to touch the light of the old man, you can't touch it, my sister-in-law can't even look down on it, it is inevitable that those rooms are good." "You didn't even catch your.

Zhou wilted at this time.

I didn't expect that the sad days were ahead, and my sister-in-law just looked down on her face at every turn, even my brother didn't want to see her. I thought that after staying for one night, Liu Chengjin would come to pick her up, but after three days of staying, Liu Chengjin didn't even show his face, and Dong had already started to drop dishes and bowls. Zhou hung up at home again and went back by himself.

Liu Chengjin was drinking egg soup, eating pancakes, and humming a little song at home, not to mention how happy he was.

When Zhou saw it, he couldn't wait to take it all away from him. Those eggs, she is going to pickle them and leave them for her daughter to eat in confinement! Unexpectedly, I was not at home for three days, and I was eaten by a man who had never eaten an egg in his life.

Zhou wiped his tears and went to the fourth room, Liu Chenghui was gossiping with Zhang, "After the sky cleared, the fourth uncle ordered lime to be sprinkled everywhere, and those stinky things were also burned and buried. The fourth uncle is so busy every day that his feet don't touch the ground, and he is afraid that the family will be in a hurry, so he specially asked me to come back and tell you. ”

Zhang said: "I know everything. But you also have to pay attention to your body. Brother An can't help again, your fourth uncle is counting on you. ”

"Brother An's academy is still under construction, and he is also helping the fourth uncle, and he is busy all day and night." Liu Yonghui said.

Zhou wanted to answer and remind Liu Yongping of the Zhang family's third room, but Liu Yonghui couldn't help but smile and said: "Third aunt, you're back, go and see the big gray mule in your house." ”

The mule was bought by Liu Yongping before the rain, could it be that Liu Chengjin was sold while he was away?

Zhou didn't think much about it, and hurriedly went home.

Zhang asked Liu Yonghui, "What happened to your third aunt's mule?" ”
