When he arrived at the Dragon Gate Inn, Yang Jiao's excited mood calmed down from that incomparably calmed down.

In front of him is still the small courtyard where the nine surnamed Hu Shang were invited to the banquet last time, not only this, but also the two next to him were also asked down by Tang Cheng, Guan Pingchao, the shopkeeper of the Longmen Inn, did not complain anything this time, although he was really very strange how the county lord could have so many poor guests, and he was so polite to them.

The three small courtyards live in the people who were invited from Liuguan Village, this time it didn't take much effort to invite them over, since Tang Cheng went to Liuguan Village last year, not only did not the county government officials in the village come to the door to make noise, but also there would be medicine and food delivered regularly, grain, vegetables, meat, and even some extremely precious fruits in the north every time, even if the county suffered such a drought at the end of last year, Tang Cheng sent these things have not been missing once.

There is no tolerance supervision and regular door-to-door inspections, which is of great help to the spiritual relaxation of the Liuguan villagers, and the stable and nutritious food supplement has played a very good role in the improvement of the physical condition of these degraded officials, it can be said that the nearly half a year since Tang Cheng came is the best period of time since the derogation of the Liuguan officials, both on the spiritual level and in the material life.

For the degraded officials who have experienced the heat and coldness of the world, there are not many people who understand the true meaning of icing on the cake and sending charcoal in the snow. When a small tolerance who does not enter the stream can scold and insult him at will, the behavior of Tang Cheng, who has never known each other, is particularly commendable.

Or because of the natural reserve of scholars, some words are unspeakable, but they are indeed full of gratitude to this gentle and elegant little county order in their hearts, especially when this gratitude is combined with the identity of the official, the liuguan, who are also from Jinshi, have a faint sense of confidant to Tang Cheng.

The apes and guests scatter at the head of the twilight river, and people are sad and the water flows freely. The same work is farther away from the ministers, and the green mountains are thousands of miles away. As a new science and technology scholar selected by Shilin Hua, he was banished to such a corner of the county to serve in the county, this Tang Cheng should be full of loneliness, right? The same is far away from the imperial capital Chang'an, the same frustrated people who have fallen to the end of the world, shouldn't the scholars be so sympathetic to each other, just like Boya wrestling the piano for the sub-period, there is no need for superfluous words, during which there is a long-lasting bosom friend appreciation.

Whether it was out of gratitude or in return for this bosom friend's appreciation, in short, when the carriage sent by Tang Cheng arrived at Liuguan Village, as Kong opened the firewood, the others all got into the carriage without a word.

After the carriage reached the county seat, it was arranged to go to the best inn that could be found in Longmen County at the moment. The incense bedding made of brocade, the apparently well-prepared food, the gentle and respectful servants, all these things were familiar and strange to the officials, and in this quiet and exquisite courtyard always reminded them unnaturally of the past when they had not been expelled from Chang'an a few years ago.

Different from the many speculations that the officials silently speculated on the road, Tang Cheng invited them over so solemnly not to ask them to help do something, but to invite them to meet, "By the way, take a look at the current Dilongmen."

These two days and days. The officials lived in the best rooms. Eating exquisite food. rode the carriage transferred out of the county government to travel around the city and outside the city. From the East Valley to the other side of the county, it is assigned to the West Valley, where the families of the Tiancheng Army are settled. Then go to the big market in front of the county. Kong and others looked at it casually. Feel free to ask. The county government sent to accompany the local clerks not only did not interfere. On the contrary, he took the initiative to provide convenient cooperation.

Is this really the time I passed by more than two years ago and saw the Dilongmen? For most of the rogue officials. As you see more and more in these two days. The deeper the confusion in their minds. Especially for Kong, this confusion and impact are even stronger. It was only a few months ago that he had been to Longmen County for the purpose of supervising the Imperial History Land. It's only a few months of gew. Everything in front of me is like a different sky.

In the east and west valleys, the jade belts are built around the mountains, and the terraced fields are simply amazing. Marvel at the wonder of the creation of ladder fields. Marvel at the magnificence of the slopes of such flat fields; They were also amazed at the sheer size of the market. Marvel at the prosperity of this market in all directions. In their life experience, which has been full of vicissitudes. In the past two days, I have seen the land Xiongqi's big strokes, and it should not have appeared in a county in any case.

Extraordinary things must be done by extraordinary people. Through repeated inquiries and confirmation. They knew that all these incredible things in front of them came from that Tang Cheng. In their hearts, they regard Tang Cheng as a bosom friend. Thereupon. In the past two days, they have been excited by a series of surprises and shocks, and the officials have been talking about these things since they returned to the inn.

This is no exception.

Tang Cheng knocked on the door with his fingers and pecked to interrupt the discussion in the main room of the courtyard. When Tang Cheng and Yang Jiao walked in. Seeing that the degraded officials of Liuguan Village are concentrated here, many places. At this moment, the eyes of these people were all focused on him without exception.

"These two days are to ask the rank to be unfettered to look at Longmen at will, and then because there are too many affairs in the county government, it is inconvenient to abolish the public because of private affairs, so I have never accompanied you, and please forgive me for the neglect", Tang Cheng bowed his hand and made a group salute, and pulled Yang Jiao, who had an unnatural face, to sit down and looked at Kong Xiao, who was sitting in the right position, and said: "All the sages are all rulers, and this time it is rare to move to the county seat, and I have seen it for two days.

Hearing this, Kong Jiang looked around and slowly spoke: "You asked us to come here this time to observe the wind and discuss the gains and losses of governance? ”。

"Exactly", Tang Cheng nodded with a smile, "In the thirty-first year of the Xianggong of the Spring and Autumn Zuo Clan, the thirty-first year of the reign of Zheng Guo, the secretary of the country, replied ~ contemptuous words: 'Madame retreats day and night to discuss the goodness of governance. What is good, I will do; What it is evil, I will change it, it is my teacher! After learning is not as solid as the grandson, but the heart of seeking education does not dare to descend, there are all the virtuous people in the county, and the later students can not know how to borrow? ”。

Tang Cheng's words were really useful to the frustrated ministers present, and some people in the audience praised it softly, "It's a good thing!" There is the style of the ancient gentleman in power".

The four words "letter can do things" and the words just quoted by Tang Cheng are the same as the 31st year of Xianggong in "Zuo Chuan", which is ~ contemptuously praising Gongsun Qiao's words, which means trustworthy, which means Tang

I understood, and after hearing this, I thanked the man with a humble smile.

"Since the servants are here, they have seen it, and there is no reason to hide their secrets for the sake of the people on this side", the look of appreciation in Kong's eyes flashed away, and he said with an almost unchanged look of solemnity on his face: "According to what the servants have seen in the past two days, the actions of the Donggu of Tang Ming Mansion can be called the good governance of the descendants of Gongyan. Tang Ming Mansion thinks twice".

Hearing this, Yang Jiao, who was sitting beside Tang Cheng, pursed his lips, wanting to say something but didn't say it in the end.

"What the public said is extremely true, Hou Xue's efforts to promote Donggu since the beginning of his appointment are also the foundation of solid cultivation, as for the fact that the Beicheng Bazaar is a last resort", Tang Cheng said this sincerely, Yang Jiaozhi, who heard this, frowned, turned his face slightly and glanced at him, and then pursed his lips again, and this is also a shame for him to say! Tang Cheng ignored him, sighed deeply and continued: "The fact of the East Valley is big, the money and grain are even greater, the original government is barren and poor, and there was a great drought last year, if you want to achieve this big thing, you have to take advantage of the Beicheng market to make up for the lack of the East Valley. ”。

The people of Liuguan Village have lived in Longmen for more than two years, and they are still clear about the situation in this county, and they all nodded after hearing Tang Cheng's explanation.

"Hmm", Kong Wei agreed with Tang Cheng's explanation, "However, the wind of pursuing profit is together, the people are easy to value profit and ignore righteousness, heavy treachery and cunning and abandon simplicity, and the bad of people's hearts is not far away, but I don't know what Tang Ming Mansion will do to govern the loss of the people's hearts?" ”。

"Emphasis on the law".

"Oh! The Ming Mansion is also a person who reads poetry and books, but he forgot the ring of the death of Qin II? ”。

Hearing this, Tang Cheng smiled and said, "This law should be practiced in parallel with education."

"How to educate the Fa?".

"To show the good and righteous deeds of the land, so that all the people may know what is good and what is evil. In addition, more importantly, the Houxue will vigorously rectify the official school and righteous learning in the county, so that the Holy Ancestor Renli Qingyin cleanses the wind of words and profits", said here, Tang Cheng's slowed tone has a strong sense of remembrance, "Houxue has been poor since childhood, and the whole township is able to learn the teachings of the saints and have today, it is to be sad for me to abolish the Longmen School and Politics, but before the barren Yazhong was powerless, and now the benefits of the Beicheng market make the county have savings, and after the completion of the construction of the Donggu terraces, you can reorganize the study and politics, The expansion of the county school and the establishment of righteousness will make my Longmen, although remote and poor, all the children who have the heart to learn can hear the teachings of the saints."

"Good!" , Tang Cheng's words full of emotion made Kong Zhuren's eyes light up, and when he finished speaking, the old master stroked his palm and praised: "Si Yan is very good!" Tang Ming Mansion has this heart, the great luck of Longmen, and the great luck of the people! There is a shortage of people to teach in the county, and the servants are willing to participate in the grand event even if they are old."

As soon as Kong's words came out, the other people in the audience also immediately echoed it, and their remarks only made Tang Cheng, who was grateful again and again, regret it, but it's a pity that these people are leaving, otherwise they are all placed in the county school as a teacher, if all the county schools in the world talk about the strength of teachers, Longmen County School can sit in the first place.

Oh, it's a pity, it's a pity!

When it came to this topic, Kong Yi, who was born in Guozijian, changed his usual sayings, and said a lot of details one by one, and finally Tang Cheng made a banquet in the name of a private person in the east and ended in this heated discussion.

After saying goodbye from the side courtyard, Tang Cheng breathed a sigh of relief at the bright night sky, tired, it was so tiring to get along with these people, from talking awkwardly to making every move.

But as a large-scale political force that can be used as an important lever in the future to push the court forward, even if you are tired when you get along with them now, you have to bury this foreshadowing in advance, and others may not be able to say, but Tang Cheng still sees Kong and the few people who are close to him, these people have never easily pushed people, but once he really appreciates someone, it is difficult to change according to his temperament, and in terms of the character of such people, as long as they feel that it is righteous to help you, even if they are against the emperor Lao Tzu, there is no ambiguity, That's the right thing to do.

If you want to really make friends with Kong and others, it is far from enough to give away purely materially, for them, only the same concept of being an official and a Confucian is the core criterion for distinguishing intimacy and alienation, and the previous sending of herbs and food is more of a stepping stone to shorten the distance between the two sides, and before they are about to leave, this consultation conversation is the soul, showing ability, exchanging ideas, and carving their own distinct brand in the hearts of these people who are about to return to the court, this is the real purpose of Tang Cheng's trip, The advisory that has been talked about until now is more of a cover to provide a stage.

Judging from the atmosphere of the dinner and the attitude of Kong and others at the time of farewell, the purpose of this trip can be regarded as a complete achievement.

Once they return to the court, as long as they are still in the court, the safety factor of his Tang Cheng in his career will increase a lot, and if he returns to Chang'an one day, then he will borrow power......

Thinking too far, Tang Cheng shook his head at the twinkling stars, although he wanted to restrain his thoughts that were too flying, but his mind involuntarily drifted away, the big thing in front of him has been completed, and the planning and distribution of Longmen County Government has almost been completed, temporarily put aside the things in front of him, so where will he go in the future? Is it true that he will go back to the capital directly as Zhang Liang said, or will he continue to serve in the local government?

The mind was fluctuating, many ideas came and went, and in Tang Cheng's deep groaning, there was no conclusion in the end, where is this future, where is it?
