Because these questions are relatively sensitive, when Zhang Shihua asked these questions, Thursday Jiuzi, who was sitting next to him, also didn't say a word.

However, Qian La's answer was still very satisfactory to Zhang Shihua, Qian La got everything they deserved, and no one interfered with these issues.

I have to say that after hearing such an answer, Zhang Shihua himself couldn't help but be a little surprised. Because he was born in a family of officials, he knows very well what will happen after each policy reaches the bottom.

It is no exaggeration to say that the current Yuanmeng Imperial Court, every time a copper plate tax is collected, it is exploited layer by layer, and when it comes to the people at the bottom, the tax of a copper plate can become five copper plates, which is ten copper plates. This is not an exaggeration, but a serious fact.

If you think about it, you will know that even in later generations, the state power has entered the era of democracy, and corrupt officials still cut off stubble after stubble like leeks growing in the fields. This was still the case in the era of democracy, let alone the feudal regimes that relied on high-pressure dictatorships to rule.

Therefore, in a closed society, it is simply an impossible task to put an end to the corruption of officials.

Just look at Zhu Yuanzhang, in order to rectify corrupt officials and corrupt officials, Zhu Yuanzhang doesn't know how many pairs of human skin Zhu Yuanzhang have pulled out. What use may be, as soon as he dies, after being replaced by an emperor whose prestige and ability are inferior to him, the officials are not as greedy as they should be.

So even in the nascent regime, Zhang Shihua never imagined that his officials could be as incorruptible as Qing Shui. After all, 'when the water is clear, there are no fish, and when people are observed, there are no fugitives'. Not to mention anything else, Thursday Jiu, who was sitting next to Zhang Shihua, was not a clean official.

Zhang Shihua himself knows, since he became the prefect, so far. At the very least, this guy has received no less than 5,000 taels of silver from the hands of big Xiangyang families like Lin and Lou.

Five thousand taels of silver, no matter which dynasty or generation of king's law is exchanged, this guy should have been dismissed and sent to prison a long time ago.

But did Zhang Shihua do that in accordance with the law, apparently not. Because Zhang Shihua knows that it is impossible to eliminate the corruption of officials by killing people. Therefore, in Zhang Shihua's view, corruption is not an unforgivable thing.

Let's say Thursday nine. That's right, he has been corrupt since he took office, and he is indeed a corrupt official through and through. But you must know that corrupt officials do not mean incompetence, and even less do they mean inaction.

It is true that he was corrupt, but he is a capable and practical official, and knows what money can and cannot be taken with money.

Although it is said that since he took office, he has embezzled more than 5,000 taels of silver in total. But since he became the prefect of Xiangyang, the war-hardened Xiangyang Road has been able to quickly restore order, and things like autumn harvest and spring ploughing have also been perfectly handled in his hands, and Zhang Shihua has not been worried much.

Therefore, although he himself is a downright corrupt official, his contribution to the people of Xiangyang and the regime of the Black-clothed Army is far from being comparable to that of a clean official who can only talk about it.

Therefore, Zhang Shihua has never been afraid of corruption by officials, what he is really afraid of is that the corpses of officials are vegetarian and do not do practical things.

However, if it can be like this time every time, not only can not only not be corrupt and not hit the attention of the people, but also do the things that have been explained well, Zhang Shihua will naturally be more satisfied.

Of course, the reason why no one did anything to these immigrants this time must be because the poor and white immigrants do not have much oil and water on them.

After all, if you voluntarily emigrate, none of them will be destitute. In addition, there is not only the intervention of the military in the immigration incident, but also the great attention of Zhang Shihua. Therefore, the risks taken by the officials are naturally not proportional to the gains. Therefore, for the immigration incident, except for a very few officials who ask for money and do not want to die, other officials will naturally not be so blind.

Otherwise, you can try to replace these poor people with rich people.

If you come to immigrate with a fat and oily rich man, unless you put a knife on their necks, they will not tear a piece of fat off the rich man. Then the sun will really rise in the west.

Okay, now that's the case.

After learning that the poor people who emigrated were not treated harshly, and that most of the policies formulated by Zhang Shihua had been implemented one by one, Zhang Shihua did not hesitate to praise the officials in charge of this matter, such as Zhou Jiu.

And these officials, who have been praised by Zhang Shihua, are naturally smiling.

After all, for them, Zhang Shihua's appreciation is equivalent to being promoted and making a fortune.

So all of a sudden, in this humble campus, the inside and outside of the house seemed to be happy.

However, at this time, Gao Yang, the guard who was originally guarding the town gate, hurriedly ran into the small courtyard with a guard who came from Xiangyang City on horseback.

"My lord, my mother is going to give birth, my mother is going to give birth!" The guard who rode a horse from Xiangyang City ran into the house out of breath, and he was also busy saying such words to Zhang Shihua.

When Zhang Shihua heard this, he couldn't help but stand up from his seat.

"What, Vile gave birth! Quick, Gao Yang, you will bring me the war horse now, and everyone will follow me back to Xiangyang immediately. At this time, Zhang Shihua, who was anxious, naturally couldn't care about anything else. Therefore, I saw him shouting like this, and at the same time, he couldn't help but take a step, and hurried out in three steps and two steps.

However, Gao Yang, the personal guard, is also a smart person, and when he came, he also led Zhang Shihua's war horse to the door of Qian La's house.

Therefore, after Zhang Shihua stepped out, he turned over and rode on a war horse, and he couldn't help waving his horsewhip and rushing towards Xiangyang City.

Seeing Zhang Shihua like this, there was no need to greet him at this time, Li Wu, Zhou Jiu and others naturally ran quickly to keep up behind.

So in this inconspicuous town, I couldn't help but see five or six officials in official uniforms, one by one, pulling their robes and running forward like their butts on fire. And such a scene can really be regarded as a wonder.

However, in this regard, Qian La, who was suddenly cooled down, did not feel funny, but folded his hands and prayed sincerely to the Buddha. In the hope that the Buddha can bless their Pingzhang lady, they can go smoothly, and the mother and child are safe.

"Drive! Drive! ......" On the country road leading to here in Xiangyang City, Zhang Shihua also rode his horse like crazy at this time.

Seeing Zhang Shihua like this, Li Wu and the others were also urging their horses to follow closely behind. Therefore, on the road of more than 20 miles from Gezhen to Xiangyang City, Zhang Shihua and his party only took more than two quarters of an hour to urge the horse to run the entire distance.

"Those who come stop, those who come stop. The lord has decreed that no one shall gallop into the city unless there is an urgent military matter! Because the vast majority of the black-clothed sergeants had not seen Zhang Shihua's appearance up close, and because Zhang Shihua rode his horse one step ahead, they did not see the officials and guards who followed Zhang Shihua. So when I saw Zhang Shihua, who was dressed like a noble son, he took the lead and went straight to the city gate, and these gatekeepers couldn't help but subconsciously stop him.

But fortunately, the hundred household officials guarding the city have been thinking about Zhang Shihua, who took people out to inspect early in the morning. Therefore, he has been paying attention to the city gate, and he is ready to wait until Zhang Shihua comes back before brushing his face in front of Zhang Shihua, and he can't help but recognize Zhang Shihua's identity outside the city for the first time next to the city gate.

"Bastard, blind your dog's eyes, you dare to stop the lord, don't you fucking get out of my way!" These hundred households jumped to their feet and couldn't help but curse so loudly. And the soldiers guarding the city who blocked Zhang Shihua from entering the city at the city gate heard the words of their own hundred households, and they suddenly knew Zhang Shihua's identity, and they couldn't help but kneel on the ground.

"The subordinates should die, the lord forgives the sins, the lord forgives the sins!" While kneeling on the ground and kowtowing, these dozen or so defenders couldn't help but sweat and beg Zhang Shihua's forgiveness.

But at this time, Zhang Shihua had the heart to pay attention to them, and seeing that these people got out of the way, the anxious Zhang Shihua waved the horsewhip in his hand, and he couldn't help galloping into the city.

The dozen or so defenders who were kneeling on the ground heard the sound of horses' hooves moving away, so they raised their heads tremblingly one after another and got up from the ground.

"What happened?" The first time I saw Zhang Shihua, who 'Mount Tai collapsed before and his face did not change', he was so out of shape, and a soldier guarding the city wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, and couldn't help but stammer to his platoon commander and asked.

But no sooner had they said this than their ears heard the sound of horses' hooves coming from outside the city. And at a glance, I couldn't help but see more than a dozen men in black clothes and black armor rushing towards him.

"This is, this is Li leading them, get out of the way quickly!" Squinting his eyes, he saw the clothes worn by the man who took the lead, and the collar and cuffs were embroidered with red edges representing the first level of the main and deputy thousand households. On the left side of the chest is also embroidered a bright yellow fist-sized sword and shield pattern unique to Zhang Shihua's personal guards. The platoon commander guarding the door couldn't help but guess the identity of Li Wu and the others at the first time.

But at this time, there was no need for him to shout, and the gatekeepers got out of the way as soon as possible.

"Hey, let me ask you, did the lord enter the city just now?" After taking more than ten horses and horses to the city gate, he looked at the platoon commander guarding the city gate, and couldn't help but ask.

When the platoon commander heard this, his expression was solemn, and he couldn't help but say: "Back to the general's words, the lord has successfully entered the city." ”

"All right, brethren, let's go into the city." Hearing this, Li Wu, who was relieved, greeted again, and couldn't help but lead a group of people and horses under his command to gallop into Xiangyang City.

At the same time, on Zhang Shihua's side, Zhang Shihua, who has been running endlessly, can't help but feel home.

"Father, mother, how is Wei'er?" When he got home, he came to the backyard in three steps and two steps, and after seeing his parents, who were also anxious and restless, Zhang Shihua, who was anxious, couldn't help but ask questions.

And Zhang Shihua's parents saw their son rushing back, and heard their son ask such a question, Zhang Shihua's stepmother Aunt Xue couldn't help but look at her son for the first time and said: "Bochang, don't worry, the midwife has already gone in just now, just give birth, Wei'er must be fine, must be fine." ”

Although she comforted her son like this, she knew it by looking at Aunt Xue's face and the handkerchief in her hand that was about to be crumpled into pieces. She, as a mother-in-law, is also extremely worried.

After all, in this era of extremely low medical standards, the birth of a first child is definitely a ghost door for every woman.

So at this time, it can definitely be said that Zhang Shihua is the most anxious and uneasy moment in his life. This anxiety and uneasiness were even more intense than the night he resolved to revolt.

Therefore, when listening to the extremely painful moans and shouts of his wife due to childbirth coming from his and his wife's room, Zhang Shihua, who was so anxious, couldn't help but want to step into the delivery room.

"Master, this is the delivery room now, can you go in." Seeing that Zhang Shihua wanted to step into the delivery room, an envoy woman guarding the door of the delivery room naturally couldn't help but reach out and stop Zhang Shihua.

After being stopped, Zhang Shihua wanted to shout something to encourage his wife, but he was afraid that this would disturb the midwife's delivery. Therefore, he could only sigh and go around the yard like a fly without a head.

Anyone who has become a father should know that the delivery time of a mother's first child takes an average of 7~9 hours.

During this long period of time, not only did the mother who gave birth have to experience unimaginable pain, but the husband of the wife and the father of the child waited outside for an extremely painful and tormenting time.

For example, Zhang Shihua now, waiting in the yard, listening to his wife's muffled moans from time to time because of the pain caused by childbirth, he can't wait to let himself bear the pain for his wife. Therefore, at this time, Zhang Shihua, who was so anxious, could really be said that he couldn't even sit down.

However, at this time, it is obviously not only Zhang Shihua who is anxious, Zhang Shihua's parents and relatives and father-in-law and mother-in-law who rushed to the scene are also extremely anxious.

So much so that it was almost four hours, and Zhang Shihua's family was so nervous that they didn't even have the mood to drink water.

"Wow~Wow~Wow~" Finally, I don't know how long it has been, a baby's cry can't help but come out of the delivery room.

And when the people who were anxiously waiting in the courtyard heard this cry, their hearts that had been hanging high finally couldn't help but let go.

"God willing, bless my daughter-in-law for giving birth to a boy." At this time, because there is only Zhang Shihua, the only son, Zhang Liewu, who has always hoped to hold his grandson, can't help praying like this. And at this time, in addition to him praying like this, which of Zhang Shihua's old fathers-in-law was also praying like this.
