Chapter 43: Temple Hanging Clothes Tianyutai (4)
During the meal, Huang Yong, the governor of Xiangzhou, was asked coldly by Mrs. Zhizhou: "I recently heard that a famous doctor came to Xiangzhou......
The chopsticks in Huang Yong's hand paused, took a slice of fish tart, dipped in the sauce, and asked casually: "Headless and brainless, where did you hear it?" ”
"It's spread all over the city, but the dignified Taishou still doesn't know the way?" They are all old husbands and wives, and there is not much respect in Mrs. Huang's words.
"I heard that I heard about it, but I don't know if it's true or not. The husband has already sent someone to investigate, and if there is any swagger and deception, he will not be spared. ”
"What else is it nonsense, I really don't know about the outer courtyard of the road?" Mrs. Huang sneered, "Master shouldn't be Zhilu Dao who has something to do with Xiao Han, so he doesn't want to interfere, right?" ”
Huang Yong sighed secretly, it is indeed not easy to hide it between husband and wife. put down the chopsticks and said solemnly: "Han Gang is young, he is a bachelor, and he has done so many things just to get to the next level." In that case, let him toss. The husband is also old, and he only wants to be an official in peace and stability, and he doesn't want to wade into troubled waters. ”
Two days ago, Huang Yong heard a rumor. At that time, it was already boiling in the market, and many people were talking about it.
Acne is considered a serious illness at the level of the ghost gate, and if you ask every family about it, it is not that someone in your own family died of acne, but someone in your relatives and neighbors died of this disease. Now rumors say that there is a pox treatment that can prevent smallpox. The rumor that it can save the lives of tens of millions of people would be strange if it couldn't cause a sensation in the city.
Hearing this rumor, Xiangzhou Zhizhou first shook his head, and then bluntly said it was ridiculous, but he didn't dare to completely deny it. Pox immunity is very important, once it is confirmed, it can alarm the world, if it can be reported to the court by itself, the benefits will definitely be indispensable.
Huang Yong immediately sent people to inquire in the market, and later learned that the rumor came from Fulong Mountain in the southwest of Xiangzhou City.
In Xiangzhou, Fulong Mountain is not much of a deep place, compared to the mountains to the west of Nanzhang County, I don't know how many miles, and several villages under the mountain are not isolated Taoyuan Township, and even because it is said to be the former residence of Zhuge Wuhou, it is also very famous.
If there are sages living in seclusion in Fulong Mountain, all kinds of gossip can spread quickly, far less quiet than the depths of Zhongnan Mountain, and the great sages who really have the heart to escape the world will not choose Fulong Mountain. But if you like to be lively, there are no towns nearby, not far from Xiangyang.
So out of nowhere, a famous doctor popped up, and no matter how you think about it, it feels wrong. Where is there a famous doctor who can treat the sick and save people in a village under the umbrella of a small hill the size of a small one?
Huang Yong's heart was a little cold at that time, and he sent someone to Fulong Mountain to inquire first, only to find out that the doctor had left for a while. It stands to reason that the famous doctor should come to Xiangzhou City, but until now, there has been no news.
Huang Yong sent his cronies to Fulong Mountain for the second time to investigate, and this time he heard that the magic doctor who would grow pox was accompanied by a Qin accent, and even the doctor himself had a Kansai accent, and even some of the words that the doctor surnamed Li said to the villagers in private were also asked clearly.
The whole thing is undoubted, and the pox cultivation method really exists, which is indeed exciting, but this matter has nothing to do with the legendary disciple of the Medicine King. When it comes to Han Gang, Huang Yong won't think about fighting for merit.
If he can get it, Huang Yong really dares to do it. But putting aside Han Gang's official status, he is the legendary disciple of the Medicine King, even if the miracle doctor who planted the pox didn't do Han Gang's business, and he grabbed the pox method in his head, as long as Han Gang said that it was his credit, no one would believe him.
What's more, no matter how you look at it, the whole thing was made by Han Gang, and he stupidly got up to it, did he set up a shelf for others to play a hundred tricks on top of his own head? Huang Yongquan thinks he doesn't know the way!
But Mrs. Huang was unwilling to let such a good opportunity fly away from her eyes: "Master, you don't want to think about it." Xiao Han is as good as Shen Zhizhou in Tangzhou as a brother. Shen Zhizhou made a mistake, and he was originally going to be relegated to the south, but it was Xiao Han who persuaded the Son of Heaven to settle Tangzhou. Shen Zhizhou had something at home, his eldest son was kicked out of the house, and it was Xiao Han who took people to settle down. ”
Although the relationship between Shen Kuo and Han Gang has been spread in the world, it is not widely spread after all, and Huang Yong only knows a little vaguely, but he didn't expect the Hun family to hear about it all, "Han Gang asked Shen Cunzhong to help him clean up the Xianghan Cao Canal, so he helped Shen Cunzhong." ”
"Is that really the case?" Mrs. Huang asked rhetorically, "If there is no Shen Zhizhou, can't the track of Fangcheng Mountain be repaired?" How did I hear that the person in charge of the work service was the second son of Li Yun, who was recruited by Xiao Han, and the person in charge of the shipment was a staff member from Xiao Han's disciple, so I didn't see Shen Cunzhong exert much effort. ”
Huang Yong opened his mouth, but he had nothing to say.
Seeing that Huang Yong couldn't answer for a while, Mrs. Huang carefully hid it proudly, and solemnly persuaded: "Master, think about it, Han Gang and Shen Kuo have such a close relationship, why didn't he put Doctor Li in Tangzhou, but in Xiangzhou?" This one, when Shen Zhizhou's reputation is flawed, the other is that he is afraid that Fang Zi will be stolen before he reports his merits, so he must be close to him to rest assured. ”
Huang Yong shook his head: "What's the use of saying so much?" Do you still want to ask for your husband? ”
"What about asking for doors, human contacts are always indispensable. What's more, Zhizhou's help, Han Gang is always inconvenient to refuse. Mrs. Huang persuaded in a good voice: "Master, this credit can't be given to others." Instead of waiting for the Son of Heaven to issue an edict later, it is better to take the opportunity to join forces with Han Gang as soon as possible and help him do a good job in Xiangzhou, so that he can meet the Son of Heaven with the tail. ”
Huang Yong kept a straight face and refused to let go.
He also had the intention of befriending Han Gang. In order to open up the Xianghan Cao Yun and expand the port of Xiangzhou, Han Gang invited Huang Yong to move. Huang Yong did his best and spent a lot of effort in it - of course, this is also because the Xianghan Caoqu is open to the sky, otherwise Huang Yong would not be so diligent even if he didn't find a reason to take himself out.
Han Gang sent people to clean up the tidal flats around Xingang and burn the reeds, but the Xiangzhou Prefecture Government did not even ask a word. made a joke outside, saying that the state government did not see the state, but only two general judgments. After hearing this rumor, Huang Yong was cold to Han Gang, for a Wangzhou governor, Han Gang's thighs were not thick enough, and it was not good to hug him, and at the same time, he had to withstand the attacks of his colleagues.
It is impossible for the superintendent and the pro-citizen officer to get along with each other because of their work. The dispute over money and grain has made the transfer department and the local military state look at each other unpleasantly like black-eyed chickens, and this situation is most serious in the transit department.
In Xiangzhou City, nature will not be an exception. Although the officials on both sides are not-for-tat, they are also distinct, and the officials of the two families even go to the taverns and green buildings they go to every day are different, and try not to meet.
Therefore, after suffering from the selection of low-grade people in the state government, their daily performance appraisal must not only be judged by the superiors, but also by the transfer department - this is the origin of the word "supervisor" in the supervision department, and the five recommendations required for the transfer of officials are missing the part of the supervision department in the road, so don't dream. And the identity of the official of the Beijing Dynasty is different, if he is suppressed and changes to become an official, he is slandered, and he also has the ability to defend himself.
"Han Gang didn't stay long in western Beijing, and he might go to Shaanxi in a few days. The seed is begging to fight the Western Xia on the Yan Road, and he is worried about someone who will help them guard the back road, and Han Gang happens to have a friendship with the seed family. Although Huang Yong has been away from Tokyo for many years, there are many people in Beijing and his ears and eyes are also handy, "Anyway, there is no place for him in the court." Even if the pox method is sacrificed, the emperor can still reward him with a slaughter to do? He's only twenty-seven! ”
"Ganluo is not yet twelve years old. If Han Gang gets married early, his son can be the same age as Ganluo. ”
"Ganro became Dazai at the age of twelve, and it was a situation that was pressing. In the court hall at the moment, there are a queue waiting for the unknown number of people to be carried into the two mansions by the Son of Heaven. There is no shortage of people at hand of the Son of Heaven, where can Han Gang take a foot. Decades later, will there still be a place for anyone else in the two provinces? ”
"Sir. Now it's not about the future of Xiao Han, but about the future of your lord and the future of the Huang family. Mrs. Huang softly persuaded: "As long as the pox method is effective, it will definitely be promoted to the world." Everyone in the world should be grateful for this, as long as you can get a little light in it, it will be a great blessing, a good celebration of the depths of the sea, and a legacy for future generations. Master, you don't want to talk about it, Brother Jin, Brother Yu, their brothers rely on this affection, no matter where they go, the gentry below are still not respectful? ”
Huang Yong was still muttering, his wife's words did make him moved, but whether he could get a share from Han Gang was a big question. For no reason, why did Han Gang share the credit for this splashing of the sky? It's not fun to go to the door to ask for yourself, so why bother?
Seeing that her husband was still hesitant, Mrs. Huang sighed helplessly, "Isn't the second uncle in the mansion?" It's rare for him to visit, and at the moment, this matter is a major matter related to the rise and fall of the Huang family, don't you believe me, a woman, go and ask the second uncle's opinion? ”
Huang Yong's cousin happened to study in Xiangzhou, and now he lives in the house, and he will go to Beijing in two days to participate in next year's Ministry of Rites exam.
"Ask Mian Zhong?" Huang Yong hesitated for a moment and nodded.
This uncle and brother of his has learned everything, and his vision is not bad, that is, he lacks some luck in the scientific field. At the age of fourteen, he passed the examination in Fujian Township - you must know that Lu Dao was a tribute student in the Fujian examination, and the probability of being a jinshi in the tribute student was smaller than that of a tribute student - but his cousin has been able to pull tribute and enter Beijing every time he has taken the test again and again, but he has no chance with the emperor's list. Otherwise, with one more Jinshi, in Yanping Township, his Huang family would be more stable.
