Chapter Fifty-Six: Your Excellency, Why Didn't the Wind Rise and Soar to 90,000 Miles
, the fastest update of the latest chapter of the Championship Record!
Xiajiazhuang has begun to take shape, has been renamed Xiajiayao and Caijiayao is in full swing, and the craftsmen are busy and extremely busy. Even busier than the homeless are the homeless, who have laid the foundations on their homes and are helping artisans build their houses. There are also children who run before and after, laughing happily, and there are also children who draw pavilions on the ground.
The whole Xiajiazhuang is in the middle of the thousands of fields, and it is a layered manor pattern. Daxia Manor inherited the style of the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, and on the basis of Datang Manor, it has been further improved. The estates range from miles to more than a dozen in circumference, with fertile soil and rivers running through them. There are as many as 100 tenants, with high-rise buildings and large courtyards, abundant food and clothing, just like a country within a country.
Although it is only taking shape, Xia Xiang vaguely sees the future of Xiajiazhuang - the front leads to the official road, and the back is close to Xigang. The surrounding green wisps are like smoke, and the green shade is like dyeing. The horns of the house are full of cattle and sheep, and the wheat field is full of chickens and ducks. The peach and willow outside the wall are green, and the people inside the wall are thriving. As the owner of the village, he sits in the thatched hall, and there are those villagers inside and outside to take care of him, and Lian Ruohan and Cao Shuli shuttle back and forth......
In the heart of Xiajiazhuang, next to his house, is the Wenyuan. In the garden, lost crafts are everywhere, and skilled craftsmen are busy weaving or crafting beautiful objects by hand.
…… No, Xia Xiang woke up from his dream, he was a dignified court official, not a comfortable manor owner, and he couldn't just care about his own well-being and didn't care about the lives of the people.
Raising her eyes and looking around, Lian Ruohan and a few people were standing on a high ground, pointing around, as if they were pointing at the country, the fright she had suffered before was completely gone, and she had regained her calmness in control.
"Xia Langjun, the old man really didn't misunderstand you, you are indeed the pillar of the country, you must really have you, it is the emperor's luck and the blessing of the people." Jin Jia sighed with emotion, stroked his beard, stood for a long time, and nodded again and again, "When the emperor asked you to come to Zhending, the old man was still reluctant, it must be the land of the tiger's den in Longtan, let you come, wouldn't it be a sheep into the tiger's mouth?" Now it seems that the emperor is still wise and knows people well. ”
"Mr. Jin Jia, do you know that this matter also has the credit of the poor way?" Ye Muping smiled, his eyebrows were full of kindness, "The emperor also hesitated, but after Poor Dao said a word, the emperor made up his mind." ”
"What did Ye Lao'er say that made the emperor change his mind?" Jin Jia squinted his eyes and smiled, "You always like to play tricks, all the good things in the world are all won by you alone, why don't you rise to the wind and soar up to 90,000 miles?" ”
"What Mr. Jin Jia means is that the poor road doesn't go to heaven?" No matter how sneering Jin Jia was, Ye Muping was never angry, he still had a light smile, "It's easy for Poor Dao to go to heaven, you don't have to borrow the wind." This matter has to be judged by Xia Langjun, presumably Xia Langjun probably guessed at this time that you really decided to take office, not all because of His Royal Highness the Star King? ”
Xia Xiang was both surprised and happy in his heart, and what was surprising was that as he expected, behind his coming to Zhending, there was a hand from the emperor, and the joy was that in addition to the emperor, there was also the power of Ye Muping.
Although some rumors about Ye Muping are widely circulated, and some people have seen Ye Muping's martial arts with their own eyes, even Yan Hao is not his enemy, but after all, the immortal theory is ethereal, he is deeply influenced by Confucianism, and he respects the son of a strange force, and he does not dare to draw conclusions. Although he also knew that in ancient times, many books on the legends of immortals were deleted by later generations of Confucian scholars, lest they affect Confucian orthodoxy. If it is really handed down, I am afraid that many myths are real history.
Xia Xiang forcibly suppressed the excitement in his heart, nodded and said: "Don't hide it from Ye Zhenren, this official has always thought that coming to Zhending to take office was the result of the Star King's single-handedly promotion, and it was the Star King who wanted the official to fall into the Longtan Tiger's Den of Zhending." Later, after a long time in Zhending, I found that things are far from being as simple as imagined, although Zhending is the tiger's den in Longtan, it is also the land of Longxing. Later, it was really determined that there was more and more turbulence, and the official saw one thing more clearly, the land of Longxing back then will now become a place of meeting again. ”
"What a place where the storm meets!" Ye Muping brushed the dust in his hand and pointed to the hot weather not far away, "The current weather is the atmosphere of wind and clouds." It's just that Zhending has been silent for a long time, and the qi of the wind and clouds is very weak, and it needs to be dredged to revive morale, otherwise there will be difficulties in the shallows. ”
"Speaking of which, don't you still want Xia Langjun to dredge the Hutuo River?" Jin Jia chuckled, with a look of contempt, "Don't say it so godly, you just say that dredging the Hutuo River can break the current situation, how good is it?" ”
Jin Jia took a step back and patted Xia Xiang on the shoulder: "Today, there are some things that should be known to you." Don't listen to Ye Lao'er pretending to be a ghost, how mysterious it is, in fact, this is the way it is...... At that time, when you exposed Wenchang's fraud with a black list, the emperor was impressed by you, and later when the palace test was taken, the emperor appreciated you very much. Originally, the ministry wanted to send you to Guangdong to take office, but the emperor did not agree. Later, the Star King proposed to let you go to Zhending, but the emperor did not agree. The old man doesn't want you to come to Zhending, after all, the situation in Zhending is too complicated. Later, Ye Laoer said something to the emperor, and the emperor changed his mind. However, what Ye Lao'er said to the emperor, the old man didn't know, and it was the old man who didn't want to listen to him. ”
Ye Muping smiled: "How dare Poor Dao play tricks in front of the emperor? Poor Dao only said one sentence to the emperor, no, it should be two sentences, the first sentence - so the heavens will descend on people, and they must first suffer their minds, strain their muscles and bones, starve their bodies and skins, empty their bodies, and act chaotically, so they are motivated to endure and gain what they cannot. The second sentence is - if you don't enter the tiger's den, you can get a tiger? ”
Xia Xiang smiled helplessly: "This official is not afraid of straining his muscles and bones and starving his body and skin, he is afraid that he is afraid that he will not know anything about things behind the scenes, and if he does something wrong and delays the emperor's major affairs, he will regret it." ”
"Heaven is going to give you a great responsibility, will you tell you in advance? Stupid, what do you think? Jin Jiacai didn't care that Xia Xiang was already the head of a county now, and knocked Xia Xiang's head, "If you know the emperor's heart early, how can you know if you are loyal to the emperor or the star king?" ”
Xia Xiang touched his head: "In case the official falls to the Star King, won't the emperor work in vain?" ”
"No, poor Dao looks at the sky at night and then looks at your face, you are a loyal minister and a good general." Ye Muping laughed, "There are countless people who have read the poor road, and they have never lost their eyes. ”
Well, Xia Xiang didn't want to say anything anymore, knowing the emperor's importance to him, instead of being relaxed, he felt even more heavy on his shoulders, and suddenly heard a crisp call in his ears: "Xia Langjun is here, what's the matter, the business is done?" There's a lot going on, it's hard to get you to handle it so quickly. ”
It is Lian Ruohan with a spring breeze.
Lian Ruohan was followed by Cao Shuli, Xiao Jia and Mantuo. Although Mantuo has not fully recovered, she still does not leave Lian Ruohan, lest she be kidnapped again. Although Yan Hao was seriously injured and Fang Shi Niang was arrested, she was still not at ease.
Lian Ruohan naturally knew that Xia Xiang had too many things to deal with, thinking that Xia Xiang didn't have time to come to Xiajiazhuang, and she didn't want Xia Xiang to look relaxed, which surprised her.
Xia Xiang said with a smile: "Business can never be dealt with, it is better to hand over the problems to others, anyway, others have also given me a lot of problems, making them embarrassed once, and it is not considered a bully." Liu Changting, Fang Shi Niang and Yan Hao were all handed over to Cui Fuzun, and how Cui Fuzun dealt with it was his business. ”
"Let me guess......" Lian Ruohan tilted his head and smiled, "Cui Fuzun will definitely kill Liu Changting and Fang Shi Niang, as for Yan Hao, he will definitely treat it carefully and then send it back to the capital." It's just a pity that Fang Shi Niang, a good woman, with such strong martial arts, ended up like this. What I can't figure out is, why on earth did she kill you? ”
"That is, why did she kill Xia Langjun? Xia Langjun has never known her all his life, and he didn't abandon her from the beginning to the end, why did she have to put Xia Langjun to death? Cao Shuli hated Fang Shi Niang very much, and gritted her teeth, "No matter what, anyway, she is innocent of death, but it's a pity that I don't know martial arts, or I will kill her with my own hands." ”
Xia Xiang glanced at Cao Shuli lovingly: "Cao Niangzi's plain hands are used to make soup, not to kill." It's better to let someone else do the murderous thing. By the way, Lian Niangzi, how is the granary going? ”
Lian Ruohan pointed to the distant soil slope with his hand: "Ma Yuanwai and Xu Yuanwai decided to build a granary here to store grain for the next year's displaced people to sow seeds. Liu Changting and Xie Huagai's granaries were in the city, built for the new law. Liu Changting is now in prison, his life is not guaranteed, and I don't know if Xie Huagai will still undertake this matter? ”
Cao Shujun patted his head: "Speaking of Xie Huagai, I think of Gao Jianyuan, Yan Hao became a eunuch, why didn't Gao Jianyuan come to Xia Lang Junxing to ask for the guilt?" Did he scare silly or scared away? Oh, look at my crow's mouth, say Cao Cao Cao arrived. ”
Everyone followed Cao Shujun's fingers and looked, on the official road in the distance, two fast horses galloped over, and the person in front of them was Gao Jianyuan.
Gao Jianyuan took the lead, came to Xia Xiang, and suddenly lifted the reins, and the horseman stood up, his front hooves were in the air, and he almost didn't step on Xia Xiang. Xia Xiang was not frightened, nor did he dodge, and looked at Gao Jianyuan calmly.
Gao Jianyuan didn't get off the horse, and pointed at Xia Xiang with the big knife in his hand: "Xia Xiang, if Yan Hao has a good guy, I want your life!" ”
Mantuo's long sword shot out: "Xia Xianzun, I simply took his dog's life first, so as to save him from barking and biting." ”
Xia Xiang stretched out his hand to press down the Mantuo long sword, took a step forward, the tip of the knife was only a stone's throw away from his nose, his face did not change, and he smiled slightly: "Gao Taiwei's words are wrong, Taiwei Yan was injured by Fang Shi Niang, what does it have to do with this official?" If you want to take revenge, you also have to find Fang Shi Niang, but if you can't beat her, it's another matter. Also, this official advises you to take Yan Hao back to Beijing as soon as possible, the real doctor may not be able to save Yan Hao's life. ”
Gao Jianyuan was so angry that he trembled, he really wanted to kill Xia Xiang with a knife, but he didn't dare, not to mention that the long sword next to him was in his hand, and he was eyeing it with a tiger's eye, only saying that Ye Muping's dust on the side was windless and automatic, he was afraid that he would die on the spot if he made a slight move, he held back his anger and put away his knife and returned his hand: "Xia Xiang, don't be complacent, one day, His Royal Highness the Star King will let you die without a place to be buried." ”
"It's not too late for the Star King to clean up the mess first and then talk big...... "Jin Jia smiled, "Gao Jianyuan, it's not that the old man said bad things about you, you see that you have a bad face, Yin Tang is dark, and your eyes are blank, I'm afraid that there will be a bloody disaster recently." ”
"When did the dignified Mr. Jin Jia also become a charlatan who pretended to be a ghost?" Gao Jianyuan didn't believe Jin Jia's nonsense.
"Xia Xianzun, although Liu Yuanwai was disrespectful to you, and he also tied up Lian Niangzi, he was indeed guilty, but he did not deserve death, why did you sentence him to be executed?" A person flashed out from behind Gao Jianyuan, although his face was sad and angry, he still tried to maintain restraint.
Xia Xiang saw that it was Xie Huagai, nodded slightly, his impression of Xie Huagai was acceptable, compared with Liu Changting, Xie Huagai was still self-denying, he said indifferently: "Xie Yuanwai, who said that this official sentenced Liu Changting to be decided?" ”
"Xie is not a fool, you don't need to listen to anyone to know that Xia Xianzun can't wait to kill Liu Changting with one knife right now." Xie Huagai held back his anger, "Just before Xie came, the official document of the government had been reported to the capital, and three days later, the criminal department would reply with approval, and Liu Yuanwai would be beheaded." ”
Cui Xiang moved fast enough, and in less than an hour before and after, he reported the approval, Xia Xiang was secretly surprised, since he knew Cui Xiang, he had never seen Cui Xiang so resolute. Years of ups and downs in officialdom have cultivated Cui Xiang's steadiness before thinking twice, and he doesn't want to be above Liu Changting's matter, he is so steady and ruthless, it can be seen that Cui Xiang is also a powerful character.
"Xie Yuanwai is in a hurry or doesn't understand the rules of Daxia officialdom?" Xia Xiang turned around and smiled at Cao Shujun, "Even Cao Langjun knows that this official is a Qipin Zhi County, and he only has the right to judge the case and not the right to judge the case. ”
A word woke up the person in the dream, Xie Huagai said "oops", and suddenly patted his head: "Confused, really confused, it is Cui Fuzun who wants to kill Liu Yuan!" Xia Xianzun, offended. With that, he got on his horse and galloped away.
"Captain Gao doesn't hurry back to take care of Captain Yan, be careful that Captain Yan suddenly gets seriously injured and dies." Xia Xiang smiled, "It's an eventful time now, maybe something strange will happen." ”
Gao Jianyuan's face changed, he swallowed back what he wanted to say, immediately got on the horse, and galloped away.
Xia Xiang looked at the figures of Xie Huagai and Gao Jianyuan leaving one after the other, and they all smiled in unison. However, what Xia Xiang and the others didn't notice was that among the homeless, there was a pair of vicious eyes staring at Xia Xiang stubbornly.
It was Li Xiaosi.
A few days later, several pieces of news came out one after another, which not only shocked the government and county government, but also shocked the entire Zhending City, and all the people were frightened by the series of news.
With the news of several things, Zhending also ushered in the first rain since the beginning of winter. The rain was bitterly cold, enveloping the city in smoke and cold.
