Chapter 70: Primary Election
"In the re-election in the capital, you have to set off early in the morning, if Shen Shi can face the saint, it is already very good." Cai Zhong said coldly: "What is this now? If you can't even endure such a small hardship, go home as soon as possible! ”
seemed to be responding to Eunuch Cai's words, only to hear the sound of 'coo-dong', but it was a small girl behind her, who couldn't hold on any longer, and fell headlong and fainted.
Two sturdy servants hurried over, each holding her arms, and carried the girl down.
There was silence for a moment. There were a few young people who had never seen a battle, and they were all shaking, as if they were following in the footsteps of the girl before them.
Cai Zhong put his hands behind his back, without a smile on his face, and went straight through the middle of the team, walking around at will. As a result, his voice became erratic, sometimes from the left, sometimes from the right, and only the tone of the fierce calendar remained unchanged.
"Draft girl, why?! It's not for you to be happy! Want to eat something spicy and drink something spicy? OK! But after eating and drinking, can ...... be idle? What kind of place is that in the palace? You weigh yourself, how many catties are there?! ”
"Everyone, remember, if you want to stand up, you have to kneel down first."
Everyone was so overwhelmed by him that they didn't dare to come out, and several girls couldn't help sobbing, and they were all dragged down by Cai Zhong's fingers, and no one dared to cry and struggle.
"Okay," after the slap, it was time for sweet dates, and Cai Zhong finally showed a little sign of relaxation: "Let's start." ”
Beginning, that is, the program can begin.
It's just a primary, why is it so verbose...... Xia Xiaodong followed the female official Shangyi in front of her, first facing the south to thank the emperor, followed by a lot of red tape, to put it bluntly, it is actually 'take two steps to see', so that the person in charge of the selection can see the appearance and demeanor of the quasi-show girls.
In the end, he returned to a solemn state, let a few middle-aged grandmothers look at it, touch his hand, pinch his waist, lift his skirt and look at his feet - that means you have hope of being selected.
Cai Zhong stood in front and looked at the first approved show girl. Generally speaking, the first batch may not be the most beautiful batch, but it must be the group with the most people, because the rank of officials in the provincial capital is higher than that of the surrounding prefectures and counties, and naturally the daughters will also take advantage.
"Ling Yan must have been raised by Mrs. Zun with her heart," Cai Zhong said to Governor Zhang: "Sure enough, she is virtuous and quiet, and she looks like a beautiful girl." ”
Governor Zhang hurriedly put gold on his face, and said with a smile: "Humble Jing comes from the Ding family of a five-jinshi, and has a family history, and has always had very high requirements for his daughter. ”
"Oh?" Cai Zhong also said: "Now the third master of the sixth room of the Ding family is the secretary of the Beijing China Eunuch. Why don't you turn around and ask Mrs. Zun to open the door. ”
It is to imply that the primary election can be passed, and you hurry up to find someone for the second election.
"Huh." Governor Zhang didn't answer, although Master Ding San was in Beijing, but his sister had a very poor relationship with his wife, so he couldn't speak. In retrospect, my wife and sisters did not have a good relationship .......
"When I entered the city, I saw that the place outside the city where the victims lived was in order, and those people had no faces, and there were even people singing mountain songs. Being able to manage the foreign disaster victims into such a scene shows that Master Zhang is really working hard. Seeing that Governor Zhang was reluctant to mention the Ding family, Cai Zhong's tone changed and he praised it casually.
Governor Zhang: "......"
Most of the people who wanted to return to their hometowns received rations and left, and the rest were for the newly opened Suzhou Stone Factory.5./books/19/19493/
You can't be a concubine, the sick prince favors the concubine. These people have work to do, in addition to food and wages, and have been promised, if they do a good job, they can stay and work for a long time, and the salary is preferential.
Of course they were pleased.
"But why do I seem to have heard that someone withheld military rations to buy people's hearts or something?" Cai Zhong ignored Governor Zhang's reaction and said to himself.
Is that the point?! Governor Zhang's heart jumped, he coughed dryly, and said astringently: "Natural disasters* demons are dancing wildly, and there are always some people who don't know the general situation. ”
“……”
After waiting for a long time and not hearing Cai Zhong's answer, Governor Zhang looked up and saw Cai Zhong staring at himself coldly with a pair of triangular eyes.
"......" Governor Zhang's cold sweat fell.
Why would anyone go to the trouble of currying favor with a eunuch who didn't have the following? Because the eunuch is close to the emperor.
The distance between him and the emperor is directly related to a person's influence on the emperor. Cabinet University Priest Cow, right? People are just five products, but they are close to the emperor.
This Cai Zhong can get the errand of the Beijing draft, which is very revealing in itself. Governor Zhang sent someone to inquire about the news, Cai Zhong has been serving by the emperor's side for more than 20 years, doing chores from the periphery, step by step, and finally came to the emperor's side.
Such a person is capable and forbearing, who dares to offend?
"Zhang Bo'an," Cai Zhong retracted his eyes, looked at the swaying rose bushes on the side, and said lightly: "The wind is not for nothing. Is it possible to do good deeds and still do faults? Who would dare to do good? Take out the money, and tell where the money came from? Take the grain out, and explain the origin of the grain? Since you are sitting in the position of prefect, you must be sure. ”
Is that how you use it? Isn't it true that the person who withheld the military rations was somewhat of a head? Governor Zhang was named and beaten, only feeling dizzy, as if the sun above his head was in full bloom.
It's easy for me to spread some rumors, but I still want to be 'sure', obviously speaking for Xia Bashan.
Thinking of this section, Governor Zhang suddenly stirred. It's too bad, although he also sent his henchmen to quickly find out Cai Zhong's preferences, and on the day Cai Zhong arrived, he found an excuse to send three thousand taels of silver, but now it seems that it is obvious that Xia Bashan is not idle! It is clear that Cai Zhong's joints have been opened, and they are smoother than himself!
Cai Zhong deliberately led the topic over, and vaguely beat Governor Zhang's mansion twice, thinking that he was worthy of someone's entrustment, he smiled at the moment, and said: "It seems to be almost over there, and it seems that it is time for lunch, so it is better to go back and rest first, and then announce the results tomorrow." ”
I stayed for a night, and I wanted to move quickly.
said that they wanted to rest, but it didn't mean that they could swarm and scatter, and the would-be girls still lined up and left the venue in turn.
Immediately able to retreat and drink a bowl of chilled mung bean soup, and take a nap after lunch, the girls cheered up, their steps were much faster, and their positions could be maintained, but it was inevitable to be squeezed.
Since Zhang Wenjuan is the first in the row, she naturally left the last in line.
The quasi-show girls went west, while Cai Zhong, Zhang Zhifu and others went east.
That's when something happened.
A short scream seemed quite out of place at this time when everyone was hurrying away.
Who's making a fuss out of nothing? Shouting out of order?
Unfortunately, it was Miss Zhang Wenjuan.
Her skirt fell off.
