Chapter 0248 - The Governor of Sorrow
With so much silver, of course Zheng Chongjian didn't want to give it, just kidding, he had worked hard to accumulate his savings for more than ten years, and half of it was lost by a meal?
But he was really helpless in front of him in this scene that called the heavens and the earth not spiritual, and he fixed his mind and said, "This official is the new governor, and I want to see you..."
As he was talking, suddenly a guard opened the door of the private room, and said in a strange manner, "Brothers, a few guest officers, come and see, the new governor is going to bully people, not only did he not pay, but he also smashed so many tables and chairs..."
ββββββ
"Let me tell you, no matter who you are today, if you don't pay, you don't want to take a step out of here, our first village in the world will never give in to those corrupt officials!"
............
"Your chief soldier is not at home?" Zheng Chongjian said angrily, "You little guy don't know what to do, the official watched him come in, and even General Cheng said that it was indeed Sun Yi." Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info"
"Are you a bit polite as an official, why do you call our general soldier by his name?" The little guy looked angry, "Mr. Sun just came back, but as soon as the villain said that the governor came to the door, the chief soldier was shocked, and then he packed up and went to Ningxia, saying when the governor changed, and then it was estimated that the governor had arrived in Ningxiawei, and he had to pay a visit..."
"You don't know that the governor has changed...!" Zheng Chongjian said angrily, he had been holding back his anger for a day, and finally found someone to vent to, it was this little guy, this place was prosperous, but it was really infuriating...
"I really don't know, this governor, when he was a big official in Ning, he never wandered around the streets and talked about his official position..."The little guy said.
Zheng Chongjian: "ββββ"
"Lord Governor, the last general just said at the beginning to go directly to Ningxia Wei, after all, this Guyuan General Soldier will not listen to you even if you are the governor of Ningxia, he was disobedient when Lord Ning was there before, so why should he listen to you, otherwise how could Xiaguan be specially sent from Ningxia Wei..."Cheng Chen looked at Zheng Chongjian's pale face, and his tone became a little polite to explain.
"You just..., hey, forget it, let's go, then this Guyuan Town is so good because of his Sun Yi?" Zheng Chongjian held back his temper and said.
"How can that big old man have this ability?" Cheng Chen sneered, "It's not a son yet... Lord Ning himself spent millions of taels of silver to let these people survive, and he got sweet potatoes, but unfortunately, Lord Ning was transferred away after doing all this..."
"Then he, Sun Yi, still dares to be disobedient...?" Zheng Chongjian tried to find a flaw in his words.
"Your Excellency, you don't even know this bit of common sense, do you?" Cheng Chen was surprised with some contempt, "Guyuan was originally one of the independent nine-sided towns, and it wasn't that the Wei eunuch came blindly, but Guyuan has never heard the words of the Ningxia General Army, and the same is true of He Huchen before, after all, how can it be comfortable to be the second boss as his own boss?" Just like if the last general leads the troops to purge the anti-thieves in Gansu, then can the governor of Gansu still let me listen to me as a major matter? β
ββββββ
Ningxia Wei is even better than Guyuan Town just now, Zheng Chongjian was really surprised again, but this can't erase the scars in his heart before, and the dozens of people who are swaying beside him...
"Lord Governor, our General Soldier Zhou is waiting in front of us..."
Cheng Chen paused, then looked at everything as usual, and couldn't help but say a little sneeringly, "Lord Governor, the last general doesn't know what's going on, the general is still waiting here when the last general sets off in the morning... Hey, it's also my fault that I've delayed too much time, Mr. Zhou is busy with affairs, so he can't just wait here for a day, right? β
The corners of Zheng Chongjian's mouth twitched, it's not that I was blamed for delaying time, and then he responded without smiling or smiling, "This official is the most chilling governor in office." β
Unexpectedly, Cheng Chen, who was originally polite, shook his head seriously, and then said with a disdainful face, "My lord is really used to living a good life, what kind of shiver is this, who in Ningxia City doesn't know that when our Lord Ning hurts people, he is greeted by a local acquaintance who does all kinds of evil, tens of thousands of corpses and hundreds of thousands of people lying on the street who are about to starve to death, and Mongolia is eyeing it..."
"I really don't know what you dog officials are doing when you adults are living these days?" Cheng Chen became more and more excited when he spoke, his tone became more and more angry, and his words became more and more ugly.
"How dare you insult the halfpipe like this!" Zheng Chongjian was so angry that he trembled.
"Is there a mistake in the end? Dare to ask how the adults can easily take out tens of thousands of taels of silver, as far as the last general knows, the Ming Dynasty does not have such a high salary... It's because I read through you corrupt officials, there is almost one in ten in Ningxia, how many people have become thieves, let me tell you, this Ningxia Wei except me, see if there is anyone who cares about you..."
Zheng Chongjian's face turned red, and he wanted to tell him that greed for money was actually an unspoken rule.
"No one takes you as a governor in their eyes, an ordinary person is like this, if I hadn't listened to Lord Ning a long time ago, the ghost would have greeted you, and you wouldn't even be able to enter the gate of Ningxia, believe it or not?" Cheng Chen looked a little torn in his face, "But you'd better settle down, otherwise you will be slaughtered by that group of soldiers, don't talk about me, even Lord Ning can't control them." β
Cheng Chen's somewhat angry words made Zheng Chongjian's heart feel a little relieved, he thought that Cheng Chen's words at this time were the most credible, and he was also worried that he didn't expect that the forces in Ningxia were really so complicated, but if there was a gap, he was not afraid, and he couldn't help but feel at ease.
"Hey, things in the court are very complicated, and you don't understand it." Zheng Chongjian restrained his anger and said helplessly.
Cheng Chen didn't speak, thinking that Zheng Chongjian was stupid, what kind of politics did he know about being a thief? Follow Childe, as long as you live a good life.
Cheng Chen took Zheng Chongjian and his party to an inn, and said helplessly, "Lord Governor, this inn is relatively affordable, and it is also in line with your identity, the last general has no money, adults can go in by themselves if they have money, it is getting late, I will take you around at the end of tomorrow, maybe you can still meet Mr. Zhou, but I will say okay first, it's your business to ignore it, and today I begged for a while to let people wait there." β
"It's the first village in the world again..."Zheng Chongjian's body shook, and then frowned and said, "Why don't you take me to the governor's mansion." His temper was in the middle of hearing Cheng Chen's plausible... After the truth, he was slightly restrained, but at the moment he was unhappy again.
"Ningxia Wei, how can there be any governor's mansion." Cheng Chenle said, "All officials buy or rent houses or houses by themselves, and the former Lord Ning himself is no exception. β
"-" Zheng Chongjian wants to scold again, he feels that he has hit an evil today, and he is not as angry as he is today for half his life, he has come all the way to be an official, and he doesn't even have a house?
"What about the original mansion...?" Zheng Chongjian asked.
"It's all sold..."Cheng Chen's tone was taken for granted.
"Sold...? ... What the? Sold! Zheng Chongjian's beard trembled and said angrily, "Why are you so bold that you dare to sell all the houses of Ningxia officials?" β
Cheng Chen looked at the beast's eyes, and then said with pity, "In the previous situation, hundreds of thousands of people couldn't eat enough, and there were dead people everywhere, and Lord Ning made up a million taels of silver by himself, so what if you don't sell the house, the kind of house full of dead people, can you sell it if you change the adult?" β
β... That... That's pretty much it..."Zheng Chong clenched his fist and said, what he wanted to say was that he couldn't sell the house either!
............
Cheng Chen didn't come late the next day, which was decent, and Zheng Chongjian finally met Zhou Chang, the chief soldier of Ningxia Wei, Ning Zhiyuan's father-in-law, which is not a secret, but not many people know about it, and even met Ningxia Wei Zhongxun many real power leaders, such as Wen Hao, Chen Biao... There are many more instruments.
What made him feel a little relieved was that he only spent ten taels of silver last night, you must know that they are sixty people, Zhou Chang's face is lukewarm, Wen Hao's face is cold, Chen Biao's face is very hot... Zheng Chongjian cleaned up his mood and opened his mouth.
"Ladies and gentlemen, this official has come to Ningxiawei, then he will work with you to make Ningxiawei better and better, and the people will live and work in peace and contentment..."
"Lord Governor, are the people of Ningxiawei having a bad time now?" A scholar-like man asked.
"It's good, but it's okay..."
"Then dare to ask why the adults are making Ningxiawei better and better, did the adults bring a lot of money... Or did you bring a lot of soldiers who could defend us? Forgive the official for being clumsy, and he didn't see anything. β
ββββββ
"Do you think of me as your adult...?" Zheng Chongjian said with a cold face, he didn't know how to answer this, but he was not at the mercy of others.
β... No. The scholar replied decisively, with a brief pause in front of the decisiveness, really thinking about whether he wanted to be so direct.
"--Do you know what you're talking about, this official is the governor of Ningxia sent by the imperial court." Zheng Chongjian held back his anger, he used to be an official, no matter how perfunctory his subordinates were, they were not respectful on the surface.
"What does the court have to do with me...?" The scholar looked solemn, "We pay taxes to it every year, but it doesn't care whether we live or die, if it depends on the imperial court, what you see today is not this million people, but millions of corpses and souls!" β
β... Do you still want to rebel? Zheng Chongjian's heart jumped, and then glared at the scholar, if this was the case, he would be confused, because if he dared to speak so blatantly, all the military attaches must be aware.
"Liheng, I'm too excited, I really can't kill this dog official, why do you say so much." There's a military attache on the side... Admonished, the scholar smiled.
"My lord is too worried, what is the benefit of my rebellion, it's just that there are too many officials like adults in the imperial court, how can people dare to believe that they have trapped millions of people in my Ningxia and a place where they will never recover, the student's real name is Su Liheng, he is twenty-six years old, but because he offended the county, more than ten years of exams have been passed by children, resulting in their parents dying of hard work, and after Lord Ning came, the students were the first in the exam every year, how can students believe you?" There was a hint of resentment in Su Liheng's tone, "Could it be that a student entered school at the age of three, and he studied hard for 20 years to be a child...?!" β
Zheng Chongjian felt in his heart that what his colleague had done was really a bit excessive, just a county order, and it was almost the same to card the child to the age of sixteen or seventeen, and it was easy to have an accident.
"Then you can't generalize, not all officials..."
"Where did you get your tens of thousands of taels or more?" Su Liheng sneered, "Nazhi County must not have so much savings, when Lord Ning gave him a house, all the family assets were only more than 30,000 taels, he is in his sixties this year, and the money he has earned for decades is only the money for an adult's meal, of course, the level is different, and the students understand... Students really understand..."
Zheng Chongjian: "ββββ"
"But you corrupt officials and corrupt officials will never survive in Ningxia, don't believe it." Su Liheng suddenly said with a cold face.
"There is a kind of you who kill the official here, otherwise the official will play to the court." Zheng Chongjian said with a stubborn heart, he knew that his softness was going to be soft forever, and he didn't believe that this group of people dared to kill him.
Chen Biao clenched his fists and walked out, and said with a smile, "I haven't heard such a cheap request, Lao Cheng, can you hear it, it's not that I don't give Lord Ning face, but this old guy really doesn't cooperate, Lord Ning has to be polite when we send troops, a newcomer dares to be so tough..."
"You... Ay... You'll do it later. Cheng Chen said with a look of 'grief', "Anyway, Lord Ning can't come back, and let me protect his life, don't kill him, killing him is just another one to die..."
............
Zheng Chongjian was beaten and beaten hard, fortunately he was not a simple civil official, and his first position was a military general in Henan Mansion, so he was relatively durable.
"Lao Tzu told you, if you want to go to the imperial court, just report it, and see if the emperor Lao'er can send troops to fight us..."
Zheng Chongjian was dragged back to a small mansion he bought half-dead, and it cost him 8,000 taels of silver, and the housing prices in Ningxia are really expensive! Then he began to write letters, and these barbarians were torn in their faces, and they did not care about anything, and they had to use their lives to pass the letters, and the sixty or so followers all set out, and he knew that it was useless to keep these people, because he was already on someone else's territory.
He thought of Cheng Chen, and he didn't know if what he said about sewing Ning Zhiyuan's order was true, and it was true that only his attitude was a little better, he wouldn't believe it so easily, so he just said the facts, from the perspective of a military attachΓ©, these officers are all experienced in battles, much stronger than themselves, and it is not very reliable for Chongzhen to send someone to fight it, he is very melancholy... This Ningxia is not generally difficult, it is much more difficult to mix than the capital.
