"Today, Liu Mazi is a good book in Cuiyunxuan!"

"At what time, if you still have the leisure to listen to books, the Liukou is about to fight to Nan'jing!"

"Nonsense, what day did you hear from that! Early this morning, the news came that the Liukou had collapsed outside the city of Chu'zhou and had gone west......

The sound of chattering in the restaurant came into his ears, and Zhang Pu smiled slightly: "Why doesn't the virtuous brother choose a seat, but do you have to drink here?" ”

Sitting opposite him was Fang Yizhi, Fang Yizhi also began to grow a beard recently, and smiled when he heard this: "Jimin often criticizes me, although I have the ambition to serve the country, but I don't know the people's suffering, I can be the imperial history, not the people-friendly official, I have always been unconvinced, so I asked him how to be a people-friendly official, he said that he must come out of the people and enter the people, not from the scholars and into the scholars." Talking and laughing can sharpen knowledge, but it is difficult to divide the crops without white ding. I think there is some truth, now living in Jinling, it is not easy to go outside the city to know the crops, but it is not difficult to listen to the slang of the market in the restaurant. ”

"Now the secret is said to help the people, if there is no help to the people, you can't drink wine!" Zhang Pu laughed.

Fang Yizhi smiled lightly, he and Zhang Pu used to be close friends, but as his relationship with Yu Guozhen became deeper and deeper, Fang Yizhi's opinion of Zhang Pu was gradually influenced by Yu Guozhen. Of course, it is impossible to break up, but it is not as respectful as a teacher at the beginning. His words were actually a faint reminder to Zhang Pu not to talk about hypocrisy, but to be pragmatic, but Zhang Pu didn't realize it at all.

After a year of recuperation, Zhang Pu has recovered from last year's blow and has become confident again. Unlike Shi Kefa, who was shocked and overwhelmed by Wen Zhenmeng's resignation, Zhang Pu did not think from the beginning that Wen Zhenmeng would be the opponent of Wen Tiren and others, and his hopes were always pinned on Zhou Yanru.

"What the two virtuous brothers said about Jimin, but Yu Guozhen Yu Jimin?" Fang Yizhi actually only sat in the accompanying seat, and there were two people sitting in the guest seat, both of whom were in their forties. One of them was black and thin, while the other was slightly better. The one who described the withered man asked, and the other person's eyes flickered, as if he was extremely interested in Yu Guozhen.

"It's him, if it's not him, who else in the world can convince Mizhi so much!"

"Mizhi just wants to introduce me...... For this Yu Jimin as a counselor? The one who described the withered asked again.

Fang Yizhi nodded, and said sincerely: "Exactly, now that Yu Jimin has a great foundation overseas, he needs help, so the younger brother took the liberty of recommending Mr. Mao Xian to him." Mr. Mao Xian can temporarily accommodate one or two places in other places, and he can also be familiar with civil affairs, and after coming to Dengke, he will be familiar with the affairs of the government case. ”

"I have heard the name of Yu Jimin for a long time, and the "Storm Collection" compiled by him, the old man is also looking forward to reading it, which is really witty and smallpox." The person who was called Mr. Maoxian smiled self-deprecatingly: "It's just that I haven't heard of his fame, and I thought that Mizhi invited me to teach him how to make arts, but I didn't expect it to be a staff member......"

In his words, there was some disapproval. Fang Yizhi didn't mind his attitude, this person's surname was Wan, his name was Shihua, his name was Maoxian, a native of Nan'Changfu, and he was the head of the Yuzhang Society, a branch of the Fushe. This person is "strange", and his luck in scientific research is extremely poor, although his literary name is extremely prosperous, when others mention Nan'chang Yuzhang Society, they only know him Wan Shihua, but they don't know the rest of Yuzhang Society. But such a big fame didn't give him a future, he was always just a talented child, and he couldn't even lift people.

At that time, among the people in the sea, there were Wan Shihua eight shares of articles in the family, as long as they memorized the texts and imitated them in the imperial examination, there were often people who were promoted and those who were promoted to the scholars, but he himself failed to try many times, and he did not win the eight examinations, which was really a big decline. In the original history, he was recommended at the age of 50 to go to the Bei'jing Ministry to receive a county magistrate's position, but when he arrived in Nan'Beijing, he began to fall ill, and when he arrived in Yangzhou, he simply couldn't afford to get sick.

People like him who are talented and arrogant and unambitious are often a little depressed and arrogant, and they will inevitably have many bitter and strange words. There was some unhappiness in his words.

"Mr. Mao Xian is not a talent of a hundred miles, how dare the younger brother recommend him as a staff member. After the war in the old year, 100,000 sinners were degraded and repatriated, and several brothers have heard of it, of which more than 40,000 were placed outside the territory, which is the new ......mansion of Hoi An, the former county of my Ming Dynasty."

He told Yu Guo about recovering his hometown like Ban Chao and Chen Tang. Everyone was leisurely fascinated, Zhang Pu even drew his sword and played the gong, and sang: "Back then, thousands of miles were looking for the marquis, and the horses were fighting Liangzhou......"

"That Hoi An is a place of government, and now there are 30,000 people of my Ming Dynasty, just because they are hanging overseas, Yu Jimin intends to recruit people to go to reclamation, which naturally needs to be managed."

Speaking of this, Fang Yizhi smiled slightly and didn't say anything more.

With a population of 30,000, it is indeed only a small county in today's Ming Dynasty, but after all, it is a place of government, and it will be very rewarding to open up the calloused hands and feet. Wan Minghua hesitated, he boasted that he hated life and had the ability to help the world, but he was useless.

But let him go outside the territory, especially in the south of the legendary miasma land, he was still a little reluctant in his heart.

"Mr. Maoxian can go with Ling Ai, and Yu Jimin's salary is thirty taels per month."

The people of Donglin have always been shy about their words, but they don't like the emperor's words, and they don't like the emperor to compete with them. Hearing that thirty taels a month, Wan Shihua's eyes froze, he is very poor now, thirty taels a month, a year is three hundred and sixty taels, and he understands that this is only the minimum income.

But the self-esteem of the scholar made him shake his head self-deprecatingly: "Bend your waist for five buckets of rice......"

Saying this, suddenly there was a thunderous cry in the distance, and the sound was so loud that it shook people's eardrums as if they were about to break.

Several people's faces have changed drastically, and the biggest thing hanging in their hearts recently, and the biggest thing hanging in the hearts of the people in the entire southern capital, is the Liukou. With such a momentum, could it be that there is something wrong with the rogue?

"The thief was captured by Yu Youhu!"

"Fang Qianfu ordered Yu Youhu to catch the thief!"

"Great victory, great victory, Prime Minister Lu broke the thieves outside the city of Chu'zhou, beheaded more than 10,000 people, and captured countless people!"

Pieces of cheers came like thunder, and after a while, the sound of firecrackers came from all directions, and everyone in the restaurant sat down.

"Victory, victory!"

Fang Yizhi muttered to himself, and then laughed heartily.

Zhang Pu looked at him enviously, of course he was qualified to laugh, Fang Qianfu was his father, Yu Youhu was his sister-in-law, his relatives had made such a special achievement, how could there be any reason not to laugh!

"Drink a big white drink!" Among the people present, another person who had been silent suddenly spoke.

This person came with Wan Shihua, although it was the first time he met Fang Yizhi, but the two sides have been friends for a long time, at least since the sixth year of Chongzhen, the two sides have exchanged letters. Fang Yizhi nodded again and again, and was about to speak, when he suddenly heard the sound of the bartender slapping the table in the entire restaurant.

"Wine comes, wine comes, the thief is caught, the world is peaceful, drink a glass!"

"Exactly, bartender, get on the wine, get on the wine!"

Several bartenders were busy, but they were all smiling, and the entire Nan' capital was filled with a kind of joy, more laughter than the previous New Year.

"This Yu Youhu is Yu Jimin?" The other man, who had been silent, asked.

"It is him, he must be able to talk with Mr. Chang Gung, he is proficient in practical learning, and he is better than the younger brother, and in the letters that the younger brother has written to Mr. Chang Gung in recent years, many questions have been raised by him." Fang Yizhi said this and said with a smile: "I also know a little bit about Mr. Chang Gung's intention this time, I want to ask Yu Jimin to put your work in print, yes or no?" ”

"That's what I mean, but I don't know if it's appropriate."

"How incompatible! Mr. Chang Gung asked someone else to print it, and he had to pay him money, Yu Jimin printed it for Mr. Chang Gung, but he wanted to polish Mr. Chang Gung's pen! ”

When it comes to printing, Zhang Pu is somewhat unnatural, he has long seen the important surname of Yu Guozhen's new movable type printing, and even did not hesitate to plot against Yu Guozhen. At least until now, Zhang Pu was embarrassed to ask Yu Guozhen to print a personal anthology for him.

"It was only when I heard about this that the old man came with Mao Xian...... But I never thought that I was colliding with the court to catch such a thief! Tsk, Mao Xian, why don't we change it, you go and serve as a teacher, and I will add this Yu Youhu as a staff member. ”

When the man said this, his attitude was very serious, but Wan Shihua pouted: "I hesitated just now, because I don't know if this Yu Jimin still thinks of me Daming, and now I know that he has such skills and is willing to serve the country, how can I not be willing!" ”

Although he was unlucky, he was not a fool, let alone a nerd. In his opinion, Yu Guozhenli has made such a great contribution, and the imperial court has to reward him and give him a military background, so it is not too humiliating to serve as a copywriter or staff member under his account.

"If Mr. Chang Gung really wants to, he can also resign from the post of the district teacher." Fang Yizhi said enthusiastically: "Mr. Chang Gung is proficient in practical learning, and when he is with Yu Jimin, he can sharpen each other. The younger brother said the truth, since Xu Xiangguo's death, the only person in the world who can discuss practical learning with Yu Jimin is Mr. Chang Geng. ”

The Mr. Chang Gung smiled and said nothing, but there was some hesitation in his eyes.

Zhang Pu also pondered for a while, and then lowered his voice and said: "Brother Maoxian, Brother Chang Geng, although the thief Wen has gone to the throne, he is still the prime minister of the mountains, even if the second brother has great talent, it is useless, it is better to temporarily grieve and take care of Yu Jimin for a while...... Hoi An. In the opinion of the foolish brother, the long is three years, the short is two years, and the thief will not end well. ”

Wan Shihua and that Mr. Chang Gung were still hesitating, but at the same time as they were hesitating, to the north, in the city of Lu'zhou, Zhang Chi bowed his hand to Shi Kefa, who was full of astonishment: "Governor Shi, the student is really here to resign." ”

"Why...... What happened in the House of Repair? Shi Kefa felt very weird: "Just received the good news, Yu Jimin caught the thief, and Xiuzhi resigned at this time......"

"The students just want to go to Yu Jimin's place, and last year he distributed 40,000 people...... This time, Nanzhili was forced by thieves again, and there were countless captives and thieves, and they needed to be resettled, and the gains were even twice as high as last year. Governor Shi, the student finally felt a little ashamed last year, so he wanted to go to his Qin' Prefecture Xinxiang to see what the livelihood of those people was when they came to him. ”

Hearing this, Shi Kefa suddenly felt extremely ashamed.
