Chapter 7 (24) First Sight of Nanyang (I)
Frankly speaking, Chen Pu's regular script is regular and neat, handsome, and very eye-catching; It seems that she has also put a lot of effort into writing. Especially the three "person" words at the beginning, it is no longer only Yan Kai's relaxation and roundness, the strokes are horizontal and vertical, the folding pen has a seal meaning, and the hook also has a bit of subordination, and it is very strong and open-minded of Wei Bei. The only bad thing is that these three words, whether they are taken from the seal or Xueli, there is always a deliberate intention between the strokes and glyphs, and it is inevitable that there will be an abrupt and unnatural feeling after a long time. However, this is similar to the impression left by Chen Pu. Her character is not a heroic woman, but she often wants to make herself appear more spicy and hearty, but the result is often counterproductive, and it is easy for people to ignore her gentle and thoughtful side......
Sure enough, it is still the same sentence: a person's words can always show a certain aspect of a person's character; Chen Pu is like this, Lu Ji is the same, and he himself is probably like this.
But he's not bored enough to dissect his own character. He straightened up and slowly browsed around the shelves, hoping to find some stickers or facsimiles.
After turning around, he still found nothing, so he had to sit back and drink tea while flipping through a few expired military newspapers, thinking about his own business.
He gained a lot from this trip to Beijing. It was much bigger than he expected. Under his proposal, the imperial court agreed to send more than 300,000 catties of pig iron to Yanshan every year in the future, which basically solved the big problem of improving and promoting agricultural tools in agricultural production next year; The surplus pig iron can also be invested in the Ministry of Industry's promised expansion of the military workshop, so that the Weifu can do some equipment improvement and preliminary standardization tests. In addition, the Ministry of Household agreed to allocate a sum of money and grain to Quzhou to repair the official road leading to Dun'an, and the issue of the vacancy of the Duanzhou prefect that had been delayed for two months also made progress, and the Ministry of Rites promised to increase the number of Jinshi for Yanshanwei starting from next year's Dabi, and the Ministry of War also approved Yanshanwei's plan to reorganize three to five cavalry battalions on the existing basis...... In particular, it should be mentioned that the military plan for next spring was tacitly approved by the Prime Minister's Office. The old minister Tang Xing had already hinted to him that Yan Shanwei could completely decide the timing and scale of the troops to be sent to the grassland; In this regard, the right minister Zhang Pu did not directly oppose it, but repeatedly warned him that he must "be cautious and cautious" in dealing with this major matter, and "must not take advantage of the opportunity of the enemy, and put Yanshan in the heat and water." Whatever the purpose of the decision made by the two prime ministers, their words gave him a lot of confidence. What he is most afraid of is that he is doing it in front, but someone behind him is pulling his hind legs; Now, with the acquiescence of the Prime Minister's Office, he can boldly let go of his plan. Moreover, both the military department and the household department made it clear that they would not stop sending materials to Yanshan for a period of time in the future, which also allowed him to remove a piece of logistics from his heart. In this way, starting from next spring, Yanshanwei will launch a series of military operations against the left flank of Tuqici with the cooperation of the Bohai and Dingjin guards......
All of this went much smoother than he had imagined!
In addition to not being able to meet the Emperor of the Eastern Yuan Dynasty, he was very satisfied that he was able to achieve so many good results in his first debriefing. He even had a little bit of pride. Although in most cases, others look up to him because he is likely to be the next full-time admiral of Yanshan, but who can deny that the reason why he has been able to get to this point is not because of his own ability and hard work?
Now, he has begun to plan how to carry out military and political affairs after returning from his work. The top priority remains the issue of agriculture. The construction of farmland and water conservancy must not be stopped, and the pace must be stepped up, and efforts must be made to ensure that Dachuan Province, where the three prefectures are located, can be planted with rice this year and next. Well, there is also Youliangchuan, that place was the rice grain river a hundred years ago, there is no reason to let it still be a barren grass stall now, after he goes back, he can let the health department issue a notice, see if he can find some immigrants to redevelop there, if it is really not possible, he will apply to the imperial court, and strive to screen some border households from the border village to migrate to the past, and strive to make "Liang rice" become tribute rice again, and also play a signboard for other local products in Yanshan. There is also the promotion of new and improved agricultural tools, as well as new farming methods, and ...... There were so many things to do, just sitting here and thinking about it, he felt that there were countless official duties waiting for him in Yanshan. You can imagine how busy he will be after returning to Yanshan......
But he will not complain about this, let alone slack off because of this. He came here from another world, met so many kind people, and with their help he was lucky to get to where he is today, and with his current status, he must do something to repay them. He must repay them, too! He thought that his relatives—Lianniang, Uncle Zhuzi, and Shanwazi—those relatives who had left him temporarily or forever, no matter where they were now, they would definitely want to see him do this, and they would definitely be proud and proud of what he had done. Even his biological parents would be proud and proud to have a son like him!
He won't let them down! Just like he said to Huo Shiqi in Ge Ping that night, give him thirty years, and he must make earth-shaking changes in Yanshan! He has the determination and perseverance, and he firmly believes that he can do it!
But now is not the time for him to show his strength. He had to clean up all the wolves on the steppe first! But he can do some preparatory work on a small scale first, explore some experiences and lessons, and some theoretical things also need him to take time to recall. But what he lacked most was time. The position of Admiral provided him with a stage, but it also consumed his energy and time. He urgently needed someone to help him sort through the fragments of his memories now. This person must be very intelligent, not only able to understand his thoughts and ideas, but also need to have a strong spirit of action, and it is better to have some unique opinions rather than follow the crowd......
He originally had a very good candidate in his mind, which was Guan Xian of the West Malaysia Zhiguan family. Guan Xian is young, literate, likes to think, and reads a lot, because his family is in a difficult border village, he has honed a tenacious character when he was a child, and he is just a good helper for him. It's a pity that Guan Xian's mind is all on the imperial examination, and he plans to continue to take the examination like this until he is admitted to the Jinshi. This is the reality and the limitation of the times, and he can't and can't stop and persuade. Except for Guan Xian, the other people who came into his sight were either too old, or they had an official and a half-job, or they were talking about the head of the classics and classics, and when it came to the specific business, they looked disdainful and spoke in a cold tone, and he didn't have the heart to find such a person as an assistant. Alas, it really couldn't be done, so he had to find a few more young people to enter the Admiral's Office, and see if he could choose one or two people he basically liked.
But he knew that it was easy to find people to recruit civil servants one by one, and it was estimated that those who wanted to come in could squeeze their heads; But it was difficult to find an assistant he was comfortable with. Even if he did, he would have to take the time to teach them the basics of math and physics. The question is where does he have time to be a teacher? But if he didn't teach them, how could they understand his "whimsical" ideas and theories?
It's really head-scratching......
He couldn't help but let out a long sigh.
Just when he was sighing too much for these troubles, a string of arrogant laughter suddenly came from outside the door:
"Ha, rouge slave is really, no wonder I invited her to enjoy the early plum and she didn't want to go, it turned out that she wanted to stay at home and have a private meeting! A good relationship is a good relationship, what are you still hiding it for? Are you afraid that I, as a sister, will spread it to him? Is she the kind of person I want to be because of my sister? She didn't know that she was good for her, and it was too late for me to be happy for her as a sister! ”
With this burst of disgust and laughter, the curtain of the door was lifted with an outstretched hand, and a woman in Taoist clothes with a high bun and a monk in a tied cloth were already standing at the door. The female Taoist priest walked into the house, and her mouth kept talking: "What's the matter, the study doesn't burn the earth dragon?" Don't even light a brazier? How can people sit still in this cold weather? Hey, this rouge slave, it is necessary to consider whether a person's mind is strong, and there is no need to resort to this method. Go teach someone how to light a few braziers! Jiao'er followed behind the two monks, bowing her head, but she did not dare to answer.
Listening to the tone of this female Taoist priest's words, Shang Cheng knew that this was probably Chen Pu's sister-in-law, Princess Nanyang. He heard Lu Ji mention that this Nanyang princess likes calligraphy and painting, especially writing a good book, and the house also has the Tang Dynasty calligrapher Ouyang Xun's "Zhongni Dream Laying Post" authentic handwriting and many predecessors' calligraphy and paintings. In addition, he had heard about the princess's fate. Princess Nanyang's husband was involved in a conspiracy case a few years ago, and was hung on the night he was arrested in the prison, but it was later found out that he was wronged. The unjust case was rehabilitated, but the person couldn't survive, and since then she hated the Dongyuan Emperor who ordered to arrest the horse Dasuo to rebellious the party, so she used the method of self-abandonment to retaliate...... None of it is a good thing. It is said that even the emperor had no choice but to pretend that he didn't see or hear her......
Shang Cheng stood up and bowed to Princess Nanyang and the young monk who came in.
Before Jiao'er could introduce them to each other, Nanyang had already seen Shang Cheng's face clearly, and she suddenly screamed and shouted, "Die!" How do you let a ghost in! ”
