Chapter 39: Righteousness
Three years into the opening, the second day of the third month,
Feng'an had a light rain overnight, to three o'clock, the rain stopped, a group of wind and water cold, Yang Hao, who had been sitting in the inner study all night, put down the pen in his hand, moved his stiff neck, shook his hand, and then pushed the door out, the cold wind blew on his face, the air was cool and fresh, this night he was busy drafting a petition for guilt, and sending troops to Hedong without authorization was a serious crime anyway, the envoy Xiao Mingyue arrived in Feng'an a few days ago, and asked Yang Hao in an unusually stern tone whether he was guilty,
Yang Hao didn't make the slightest excuse, the capture of Hedong was acquiesced by Li Yan, and sending Xiao Mingyue to hold accountable was just a formality, sure enough, Xiao Mingyue quickly hinted that the chief manager Li Yan did not mean to delve into the matter, but Li Ang still had to have an explanation, Xiao Mingyue asked Yang Hao to ask for guilt, and the attitude of admitting mistakes should be sincere, but don't take all the guilt on yourself, and emphasize the last resort of sending troops, Yang Hao is most afraid of getting these things in the text, and he will never be sure of the specious degree, Secondly, his writing is really bad, and what he writes is as clear as words, and he can't get into the eyes of the scholars at all, so he procrastinates again and again, and finally he is really forced by Xiao Mingyue, so he closes the door and holds back for a day and a night to make a draft,
After breathing for a while at the door, Yang Hao sat back in front of the public case, and read this request again, the more he looked at it, the more discouraged he became, the writing was shoddy, and he couldn't wait to tear it off and rewrite it immediately, but Yang Hao finally held back and really tore it off, he really might not be able to write it, it's just that, let the book office polish and revise, he really isn't the material to do this,
The back garden in the early morning is quiet, and the new shoots that have just emerged on the branches are stained with some dew, which is a quiet beauty, a beauty that can only be experienced when enjoying comfort after experiencing blood and fire.
Yang Hao was strolling along the newly built path by the pond, in this unusually quiet morning, his mind gradually became clear from a chaos, he wanted to enjoy this peace given by God alone,
The little fish was cloaked and walked over lazily, looking at her sleepy-eyed and swaying appearance, Yang Hao couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"Hey, hey, be careful with your step, don't fall into the pond."
Xiaoyu stood still, squinted and scratched his head, and asked sleepily, "Have you not slept all night?" ”
Xiao Yu's tone was mixed with a hint of resentment, Yang Hao sighed slightly, this is the third night he has spent in the study, in addition to writing that damn please, it is an official document that can never be finished, the battle of Hedong, the gains and losses are mixed, from the immediate point of view, he got the richest states in Hedong, and formed an alliance with Liu Wei, Dong Bacheng, and Wu Cao, and his power has greatly expanded compared to before, but in the long run, it may not be a good thing to expose his strength prematurely,
He invisibly started a new round of arms race, compared to the towns in the interior, Yang Hao was especially worried about the reaction of the Uighurs, if they saw their power clearly and acted in advance, the 300,000 Heavenly Wolf Army brought to Fengzhou was absolutely devastating, and now was not the time to try his best to expand himself, Yang Hao had to give up some of the things he had already obtained, such as the counties in the southeast of Hedong, such as planting too many of his cronies in Hedong,
In order to effectively confuse the eyes of his opponents, Yang Hao doubled Wanduan's activity funds, and selected a large number of elites to infiltrate the Uighur Khanate.
Xiaoyu barely stood for a while, her eyelids couldn't bear it, so she closed her eyes, shook her body, and sat down on the dry grass by the pond, Yang Hao was scared into a cold sweat, and walked back with her on her shoulder, Xiaoyu fell asleep with her eyes closed without taking two steps, at the gate of the courtyard, Yang Hao bumped into Qing'er who got up early, Qing'er looked at Yang Hao with mocking eyes, but her hands and feet were not idle, she quickly pushed open the door of the house, made Xiaoyu's bed, and helped Yang Hao put Xiaoyu down,
Then she scolded Yang Hao in a mocking tone: "What are you going to the backyard to do in the early morning, it's cold and wet, and it's really hard to catch a cold." ”
Yang Hao pouted and said: "What are you thinking nonsense, she didn't wake up and almost fell into the pond, did you play mahjong all night last night." ”
Qing'er blushed and smiled embarrassedly, last night she played mahjong with Xiaoyu, Lu Rui, and Dongyu until the end of the day, because she was hungry, and ate supper, and tossed until the beginning of the fourth watch before going to bed, she was used to staying up late, Xiaoyu got up so early that it was a little surprising, I complained that she was swaying and sleepwalking,
Yang Hao turned Qing'er's face, carefully checked her face, and reproached: "Staying up late hurts a lot, look at your face, yellow wax, this is a sign of premature aging." ”
The two were so close, Yang Hao's spicy breath was clearly audible, Qing'er's breathing suddenly became rapid, and her eyes became a little blurred.
"I'm tired, why don't you go to bed with me."
Qing'er shyly punched him, and the two of them walked to the backyard like thieves, a month ago, Yang Haoguan was promoted to a level and promoted to the defense envoy of Fengzhou, according to the system, he could expand and decorate the defense embassy, Yang Hao didn't feel that the yard was small, and he didn't feel that the yard was old, but he just felt that letting Qing'er and Lu Rui live in the same yard was sometimes inconvenient, so he built a road wall in the east cross courtyard, divided the yard into two, and the two lived on one side, without interfering with each other, and the middle of the wall was repaired with a road moon gate, which was convenient for each other to move around,
This door is being hidden at the moment, and when Yang Hao hugged Qing'er and walked in, he suddenly saw a man sneakily into Lu Rui's courtyard, and then flashed into Lu Rui's room.
Yang Hao's face suddenly darkened, and he threw away Qing'er and strode after him, Qing'er hurriedly stopped him and complained in a low voice: "What are you doing." Yang Hao sneered: "What am I doing, you are blind, someone has ridden on my head." ”
Qing'er stomped her feet and said, "What nonsense are you talking about, do you see clearly, that's Xiao Feng." ”
"Xiao Feng, which Xiao Feng is Lu Xiaofeng."
Qing'er gave him a blank look: "My brother came to see my sister, do you want to take care of it." ”
"Early in the morning, what is he doing?"
"You're embarrassed to ask, Xiao Rui is sick, you know."
Yang Hao suddenly felt guilty in his heart, he had indeed not seen Lu Rui for a long time, after returning to Feng'an, he was busy with official business, in the study during the day, and at night he either lived in the study or went to the guest house to sleep, it was indeed a long time since he came to the back to move around, Xiaoyu had been to the guest house a few times, Qing'er had also come, but Lu Rui had never been here once,
It turned out that she was sick,
Qing'er explained that Lu Rui was dipped in cold water because she was skating and playing in the pond in the back garden, and she was infected with wind chill, and later her hands and feet were cold, Qin Sihu came to diagnose and prescribed several prescriptions, but it didn't get better.
Yang Hao scolded with a cold face: "Are you all dead, don't you even know how to fry a medicine." Qing'er lowered her head and didn't dare to say anything, this time, Yang Hao didn't feel sleepy anymore, and went back to the inner study to revise the unfinished request again.
Yang Hao handed over the plea to him, pointed to the conference table opposite, and said, "You are here, polish it well." "Mu Tong is a new book office recommended by the School of Economics, I am a big family in Fengzhou, was a student of the country, because I can't stand the stale atmosphere in the country, I returned to my hometown in Fengzhou in a fit of anger, and then I heard that the Fengzhou Economics Hall is quite popular, so I came to apply for the exam, studied for two years, and was recommended to Yang Hao to do the book office with the first place, when Mu Lanqing left, recommended him to replace himself, Yang Hao felt that although this person was talented and learned, but his temperament was a little arrogant, and he was determined to temper him for a period of time before making calculations,
Mu Tong knew that this request was very important, and Yang Hao was able to hand it over to himself for revision and polishing, which was undoubtedly a great trust in himself, so he took the pen and ink and went to the desk.
Yang Hao called Zhang Lang over and explained: "You go to the second lady to see if Lu Xiaofeng is gone, and copy a copy of the prescription he got and bring it back." Zhang Lang reported back shortly after he went: "Lu Xiaofeng has left, do you want to go to the Economics Hall to find him for a prescription." Yang Hao nodded, and then said, "Lord Xiao is leaving at noon, you go and prepare, and then go to the Economics Hall." ”
Soon after Zhang Lang went, Mu Tong handed over the changed petition back, Yang Hao read it, and secretly admired it in his heart, saying that Mu Tong was a great talent in Fengzhou, which was indeed extraordinary, and he copied this petition again, although there were many changes in this way, it was not easy to see, and it was virtually to save face for Yang Hao, Yang Hao was very satisfied with it,
After breakfast, Yang Hao presided over a meeting to finalize the director of the Public Industry Bureau, the Industrial and Commercial Bureau, the Education Bureau, the Finance and Taxation Bureau, the Agricultural and Mulberry Bureau and the Military Service Bureau.
After listening to the opinions of all parties, Yang Hao officially appointed Wan Minan as the director of the Public Industry Bureau, Zhan Tian as the director of the Industrial and Commercial Bureau, Tan Kong as the director of the Education Bureau, Feng Yi as the director of the Agricultural and Mulberry Bureau, and Jiang Tao as the director of the Military Service Bureau.
The bureaus set up offices in Feng'an, the original Liucao Office is still located in Fengzhou, Liucao judges and officials do it, and Yu Lu takes it, but there is no decision-making and administrative power, in order to appease everyone, Yang Hao gave everyone the right to inspect and inspect, and the results of inspections and inspections can be directly reported to Yang Hao.
It was almost noon, Zhang Lang brought back the prescription that Lu Xiaofeng found for Lu Rui, Yang Hao read it, a few medicinal materials were ordinary, and there was nothing unusual, so he handed it back to Zhang Lang: "Go find Qin Sihu and send a few pairs of medicines." About half an hour after Zhang Lang went, he rushed over with Qin Sihu, Yang Hao got up to make tea, and asked with a smile: "It's just a few pairs of medicines, let Zhang Lang bring them, why don't you go there yourself." Qin Sihu saw that there was no one left and right, and said to Yang Hao in a low voice: "This prescription is strange, I have to come here." ”
Yang Hao was secretly shocked in his heart and asked, "Is someone secretly poisoning?" ”
Qin Sihu hurriedly said: "That's nothing, it's just ...... Some...... The medicine was not the right one, and the prescription did not help Madame's illness at all. Yang Hao read the recipe again and again, and called Zhang Lang: "Go and get some of the medicine residue that the third lady poured out, remember, don't make a big deal." ”
Zhang Lang quickly took the medicine residue, Yang Hao asked Zhang Lang to go out and guard the door, no one was allowed to come in if he summoned him, Qin Sihu carefully checked the medicine residue, and finally shook his head and said: "Except that it can't cure the disease, this medicine is not very harmful." Yang Hao secretly breathed a sigh of relief, shook his head and smiled: "It is said that partial houses cure serious diseases, but it doesn't seem to be true." ”
Qin Sihu said with a smile: "As the saying goes, illness comes like a mountain, illness goes like a thread, Madame's illness is actually not a big problem, it will take some time to heal, young people are not deeply involved in the world, and they are quacks." Qin Sihu secretly held the prescription in his hand, took a pen and wrote another pair to Yang Hao and said, "Let Mrs. take it slowly, and she will naturally heal when the time comes." ”
Yang Hao laughed and said: "This is called heart disease, and it needs heart medicine to treat." After drinking tea and chatting for a while, Qin Sihu said goodbye, Lu Xiaofeng and Mu Tong waited outside the gate, and when they saw Qin Sihu coming out, the two of them stepped forward left and right to clamp Qin Sihu and got into a carriage.
Qin Sihu pointed at the noses of the two and scolded with a smile: "It's really ignorant and fearless, can this prescription be changed casually, it will fall into my hands, otherwise it will be a mortal crime to move your head." ”
Lu Xiaofeng said with a dark face: "If it weren't for Mr. to rescue, Lu Xiaofeng would really be unable to atone for his sins." He took out a bag of silver and said, "I heard that Mr. is merciful, and he wants to set up a Jisheng Hall in the city to help the poor, and he also needs money to do good deeds. Qin Sihu didn't take his money, and said with a smile: "Money is a good thing, but this thing is not used well, and it is also the bane of life." Lu Xiaofeng's face turned black when he heard this, Qin Sihu turned his face and asked Mu Tong: "Let me ask you, why did you ask Xiaofeng to change the prescription." ”
Mu Tong said with a bitter face: "Those medicinal materials are worth a thousand gold, Xiao Feng is still a student, I am afraid of causing misunderstanding among adults, so I ...... Originally, I thought that angelica was also used for blood regulation, but who knows how to match those flavors...... Only...... It's become poison. Mu Tong slapped his mouth fiercely and scolded: "It's all my lard that is confused, Mr. is righteous, Mu Tong recognizes you as a friend, what will be useful in the future, just give an order." ”
Lu Xiaofeng also hurriedly said: "Mr. is Xiaofeng's great benefactor, but he has an order not to give up. ”
Qin Sihu laughed and said, "Everyone is their own person, don't mention this kind of thing in the future." After that, he took out the prescription written by Lu Xiaofeng from his sleeve, tore it to shreds it in front of the two of them, and then scattered the confetti outside the car, the confetti fluttered in the wind, and Lu Xiaofeng and Mu Tong's gloomy and gray faces finally bloomed with bright smiles,
