Chapter 1042 - Resignation (Page 1/1)

The rising sun had already climbed to mid-heaven, and seeing that it was almost noon, Mao Wenlong directly ordered to set sail and go to Weihaiwei Port. The main sail of the Fu ship slowly rose, the sound of the swaying horn began to float on the sea, and the huge hull slowly moved forward, approaching the distant Weihaiwei port.

The horseman who was waiting on the dock soon found that this huge lucky ship had appeared, and he did not dare to slack off, and immediately woke up Wang Datie, who was sleeping soundly.

Moving his fat body, Wang Datie finally got out of the carriage. Looking down at his fat body, a deep helplessness flashed in his eyes.

In order to give people a kind appearance, he didn't let those people who were angry with the old Wang family secretly attack the old Wang family. He, Wang Datie, had to make his body so fat. Don't look at his usual appearance of giggling, but who understands the pain in his heart?

Now it's okay, finally when Mao Wenlong, the master, arrives, it is time for him Wang Datie to retire. When the first assistant of the dynasty, Hong Chengchou, resigned from his post and retired for the elderly, Wang Datie had already heard of it. The old Wang family's today has reached its peak, he Wang Datie should retreat bravely, the wealth accumulated over the years is enough for the old Wang family to squander several generations, there is no need to stay in such a place of right and wrong. So as not to leave hidden dangers to the old Wang family in the future, the king is like a tiger, and he Wang Datie must know how to be satisfied.

The lucky boat slowly docked while Wang Datie was waiting, Wang Datie cleaned up his mood, changed his fat face to a sincere smile, and tried to move a pair of fat legs to meet Mao Wenlong and others who were going down the spiral ladder.

Looking at Wang Datie, who looked like a meat ball rolling, came over, Chen Jisheng and these guys let out a knowing smile one by one. Only Mao Wenlong looked at him thoughtfully, Wang Datie was so blessed, in Mao Wenlong's opinion, it was deliberate. The reason why Wang Datie did this is obviously because of it.

Mao Wenlong thought about it, Wang Datie had already arrived, and a few steps away, Wang Datie had already bent down and bowed: "The general soldier has arrived, and the subordinate has not been able to meet him from afar, and he hopes to forgive his sins." ”

It has always been Mao Wenlong's idea not to engage in a welcoming ceremony with great fanfare. Wang Datie has always adhered to such rules, and although there is no fault of him at the moment, he must still say the necessary polite words.

Mao Wenlong waved his hand so that Wang Datie didn't have to be polite, and then asked in a deep voice: "Wang Datie, I haven't seen you for two years, but you have become fat like this." Looks like you're having a pretty leisurely day. ”

Wang Datie seemed to have expected Mao Wenlong to say this, he showed an embarrassed look, and replied: "The chief soldier forgives the sin, the lower officials have indeed not worked as hard as before over the years." Moreover, everything in Weihaiwei has entered the right path, all yamen are operating normally, and there is not much to do with the officials. ”

Hearing this, Mao Wenlong frowned and said, "What do you mean, this Weihaiwei no longer needs the existence of your Wang Datie?" ”

I didn't expect Mao Wenlong to point out the key point directly as soon as he opened his mouth, and after a short pause, Wang Datie simply gritted his teeth. In front of everyone, he said solemnly: "Please allow the subordinate to resign from his official position." ”

Mao Wenlong looked at Wang Datie coldly, and did not speak in the middle. The people present also immediately felt that the atmosphere was wrong, and they put away their casual moods one after another, quietly waiting for Mao Wenlong's verdict.

However, Mao Wenlong did not respond to Wang Datie's request in the end, but waved his hand and said: "This matter will be talked about later, has the rest place been arranged?" ”

Wang Datie was stunned for a moment, and after reacting, he hurriedly drank the horseman and drove the carriage over, and left first after picking up Mao Wenlong. And Wang Datie still stayed and arranged for the others to sit in the other waiting carriage. In the end, he himself walked with Chen Jisheng and others and rushed back to the city.

Mao Wenlong has never liked lively places, Wang Datie knows his temperament well, and has always left a small courtyard for him in the academy. Every time Mao Wenlong comes, he will inevitably live here.

Chen Jisheng and the others were arranged to live in the city's mansion, and Wang Datie was already waiting outside the courtyard where Mao Wenlong lived.

After Mao Wenlong washed, he summoned Wang Datie. When he saw that Mao Wenlong was still expressionless, Wang Datie's mood became more and more worried. He really couldn't guess Mao Wenlong's mood at the moment, and he became more and more worried about his future fate.

After staring at the anxious Wang Datie for a while, Mao Wenlong asked aloud: "Tell me why you suddenly want to resign, is this general soldier treating you badly?" ”

Wang Datie was shocked when he heard this, and he knelt directly in front of Mao Wenlong with a plop: "The chief soldier forgives his sins, and the subordinate has no such intention." Xiaguan was originally a small craftsman who had nothing and was not well-known, if it weren't for the general soldier who could afford my big iron, there would be no Wang family today. ”

"Since you are not dissatisfied with the treatment, then why do you want to resign?" The look on Mao Wenlong's face softened a lot.

"Xia Guan knows that it was not easy in the past, so he cherishes today's achievements. As the old saying goes, those who are content are happy for a long time, and the lower officials don't want the wealth that the Wang family has won so hard, but one day they will be destroyed because they offend people in the officialdom. Wang Datie seemed to be out of the way, and directly said what was in his heart.

Mao Wenlong was thundered by Wang Datie, but he didn't expect this guy to say it so bluntly. But that's fine, and to put it bluntly, it doesn't have to be troublesome.

After pondering for a moment, Mao Wenlong asked, "Are you really deciding to leave the officialdom?" You must know that once you resign from your official position, it will be impossible for the Wang family to stay in Weihaiwei? ”

Wang Datie was very resolute: "The subordinate has already planned, as long as the general soldier agrees to the resignation of the subordinate official, the subordinate will move his family back to his hometown." ”

Now that he has even thought about the way back, Mao Wenlong has already understood that Wang Datie is really going to resign. After pondering for a moment, Mao Wenlong nodded and said, "Since you have made up your mind, it is inconvenient for the general army to keep more. Sure, make arrangements for everything you have at hand, and hand over the list of candidates to replace you. Once the commander is confirmed, you can leave. ”

Wang Datie was overjoyed when he heard this, according to Mao Wenlong's tone, his Wang Datie's resignation was already a sure thing. After worrying about things for more than half a year, but he didn't expect it to go so smoothly, Wang Datie was suddenly in a good mood, and promised that everything would be arranged.

waved Wang Datie away, Mao Wenlong began to fall into contemplation, and these old ministers and generals of the Ming Dynasty have begun to retire one after another. Maybe there are not a few left who have worked hard to the end, and everything seems to be not as easy as I think in my heart. A trace of worry haunted his heart, and Mao Wenlong suddenly felt that he was becoming more and more out of control of the future.

The wheel of history has changed, Mao Wenlong's butterfly effect has begun to appear, what will the Ming Dynasty be like in the future, no one can predict, everything is still unknown?
