Chapter 700: Sending Off
The onlookers were suspicious, and the young scribe was so frightened by Zhang Shiqi's identity that his legs trembled, and he couldn't wait to pretend that he didn't know the old man.
The man who was arrested was a little frightened, and said hurriedly: "You are also the governor?" β
"Exactly!" Zhang Shiqi raised his arms and said loudly: "A few days ago, he said that the old man couldn't sit on the Lord and couldn't send the ground. Now let's see what! β
The sharp-beaked monkey-cheeked man had a bitter look: "Who knew that the Governor was like this?" I beg the lord to spare his life! β
"You have offended Bento, and you will be spared so easily." Zhang Shiqi said, still pulling the man and not letting go.
The governor Xingyuanli guards also discovered the vision, and hurriedly separated the crowd and squeezed in to protect Zhang Shiqi.
"I'll watch you register here, and give you a piece of land with only yellow sand!" Zhang Shiqi said.
The sharp-beaked monkey cheeked listened to the distress, and said: "The master is gracious, the little one really doesn't know the lord's identity, otherwise how dare he be presumptuous!" β
"Clerk, register him!" Zhang Shiqi shouted to the scribes who came out with him, as if he didn't know that these people would make trouble as long as they were slightly inciting.
Sun Hang stiffened his head and shouted loudly in his heart: People can't fall, I'm afraid of a ball! On the other hand, he couldn't help but slander the old thief who covered his neck with loess to his neck, dragging him into such a dangerous situation. Thinking that he has been in his 28th year, he has just graduated from the township school and mixed up with the identity of a small official, if he is trampled to death, wouldn't he be wronged!
"It's all yellow sand......" Sun Hang's hands trembled, twisting the pages of the yellow album and crackling, "The new exploration is all land with water and grass......" He muttered in a trembling voice, and suddenly found that the surroundings were so quiet that even a needle could be heard, and his embarrassment was all exposed to the eyes of the onlookers.
- They don't even breathe?
Sun Hang's face was as hot as roasting, and his hands trembled even more!
Zhang Shiqi snatched the yellow book, flipped through it, and said, "This is it!" Lot number: 367 Wild Armor! Make a book! β
In the Yellow Book, the land to be sent is demarcated as "Heaven and Earth Xuanhuang." The cosmic flood is "eight characters to determine the direction, and then the area is determined by twelve days, and finally the plot is determined with numbers. Just this place number, no one dares to say whether it is good or bad, just because it is stained with the word "wild", and it is a big number like 367. It is inevitable that people will mistakenly think that this land is really in the Gobi desert.
Sun Hang finally held back the trembling of his hands and made a book for the idle man in full view of everyone.
Seeing that this place had settled down, Zhang Shiqi put on a posture of leaning on the old and selling the old, and said: "See if you can control your mouth in the future!" β
The idler didn't dare to respond, just hung his head.
Zhang Shiqi glanced around, put on a posture to leave, and everyone flashed a way, bowing down to let the governor return to the yamen.
Sun Hang finally stabilized his trembling pen, and his writing speed caught up.
Everyone watched as lines of ink fell on the paper. They all smiled. One of them also joked to the idler: "Look, this time your dream of a beautiful woman in a good field has come to an end." β
The idle man reluctantly took the title deed and laughed at himself: "I just want to get a hukou so that I can join the army." Petty official, I am one person who feeds the whole family and is not hungry, if I go to join the army, there will be no one to live, will the land be taken back? β
"Joining the army doesn't count." Sun Hang preached loudly: "Joining the army will not take back the land. The government will also send people to help you take care of the land! The court's grace is immense, just for us and other people to live in peace. Soldiers have no worries! β
"Long live my emperor!" Someone in the crowd shouted.
"Hooray! Banzai! Hooray! The sound of the mountain cried out, and although the emperor was far away in Beijing, he still shouted that the earth shook the mountain, full of enthusiasm.
Zhang Shiqi had already returned to the yamen, took a purple clay pot from the guard's hand, brought it to his lips and took a sip. I heard the mountain cry behind me. Zhang Shiqi glanced back with a smile and strode towards the job room.
Originally, the Gansu officials who were not respectful to this old winter baking were convinced this time. Looking at Zhang Shiqi's back again, he suddenly became taller, like a general who had captured the flag and returned triumphantly.
"The Governor has a vengeance to settle the hearts of the people. It's quite a good idea. A scribe whispered.
But someone around him disagreed: "It's just that I'm an enmity with an idler, and I'm not afraid of tarnishing the face of the court." β
"If something big happens, will it be the face of the court? When you can bow your head, you bow your head, this is great wisdom! Someone complimented him seriously.
The scribes knew that there were no impermeable walls, and that sooner or later these words would reach the ears of the governor. The previous doubts about the Governor could have been overcome, but now it is clear that the carriage and horses are going to be put under the seat of the new Governor, and it would be foolish to say anything that is not out of place.
β¦β¦
"Longdu, this is Henkel's old trick to seal Yongya, but it can still be used." With a smile on his face, Wu Fu gently picked up the hot soup in front of the case, scooped a spoonful and put it in his mouth.
If you just look at this situation, it is also ordinary, but if you zoom out a little farther, you can see that it is the master of this huge empire sitting opposite, His Majesty the Supreme Emperor of the Ninety-Five, it is really a little terrifying.
Zhu Cihong didn't care about the rudeness of Mr. Shoufu at all, leaned back in the chair, and said with a smile: "The Shu people have a proverb: cats do not distinguish between black and white, and those who can catch rats are the best." Zhang Shiqi has learned. β
Wu Fu has long been accustomed to the utilitarian thinking of His Majesty the Emperor, and although he does not agree with it, he will not make a direct admonition. He was about to unveil this chapter with a smile and discuss the issue of vigorously promoting the cultivation of cotton in the northwest with His Majesty the Emperor, when he suddenly found that the crown prince beside the emperor was actually frowning.
Although the young crown prince did not have the amazing talent of Zhu Cihong, he was very willing to study, and his studious work made Huang Daozhou once exclaim that he was the most hard-working crown prince since Wanli.
"Father's words are quite a gentleman's intentions, but how can the sons and daughters think that there is a meaning of asking for profit but not righteousness?" Zhu Hegui spoke up.
Zhu Cihong's hand trembled, quite surprised.
Wu Fu also looked at this prince, not knowing how to visualize. Although it is difficult for him to have the opportunity to become a patriarch of the Three Dynasties in his life, he is still very concerned about what kind of person the future emperor will be.
"This kid has learned from the zodiac Zhou." Zhu Cihong chuckled lightly and reached out to caress the back of his son's head.
Who knew that Zhu Hegui, who had always enjoyed being caressed by his father, knelt down and said loudly in a childish voice: "Father! Mr. Huang taught his son a lot of principles of being a man, and he is not a pedantic person. β
Zhu Cihong's hand was still in mid-air, quite embarrassed.
"The country is fundamentally in righteousness. How can you not distinguish between black and white, but only utilitarianism? If not, how can we have the resolute heart of 'although thousands of people will go to me'? Zhu Hegui said loudly, quite generous, but with his childish appearance of only eight or nine years old, it made people want to laugh.
Wu Fu's face was serious. I don't dare to laugh if I want to.
Zhu Cihong had a smile on his face, but he didn't want to laugh and squeezed out a smile.
"Isn't it right for you to talk to your father like this, accusing your father?" Zhu Cihong asked rhetorically.
"The sons did not dare to criticize their father, but Mr. Huang said that the state has a bright monarch and tolerates the ministers. The son is not only the son of the father, but also the minister of the emperor, and he does not dare not be a minister in order to destroy the sainthood of the father. Zhu Hegui said. also looked at Wu Fu, who was slightly hanging his head on the side, like an old monk.
Zhu Cihong stretched out his hand and pulled his son up, swept his knees, and said, "Father knows, you can take your younger brother to play first." β
Zhu Hegui reluctantly saluted Zhu Cihong, and took his ignorant younger brother Zhu Heqi and retreated.
Zhu Cihong watched the backs of his two sons disappear at the door, and said with a wry smile: "Sure enough, it is red close to Zhu, and black is close to ink." β
Wu Fu had to be relieved: "Your Majesty." This is also the crown prince's talent. How can ordinary people understand these truths at such an age? β
"Don't scold me, old gentleman," Zhu Cihong shook his head. "Those prodigies who were seven or eight years old in the examination are not a minority in our dynasty, which one is not better than him? He was ...... by Huang Dao Zhou" Zhu Cihong searched for the wording, and then finished making up and said: "It was instigated by Huang Dao Zhou to be a defender for himself." β
Defenders are still a compliment at the moment, and how many Confucians have begged and scolded the emperor for this title. There is no more thing in the world that can better reflect one's spiritual character by going against the emperor. Emperors can become instruments of martyrdom if they are not careful. is also very helpless.
However, Zhu Hegui is the crown prince, not a Confucian!
Zhu Cihong was no longer in the mood to drink tea and chat with Wu Fu, and he was about to return to the palace after a few words. He knew that Huang Daozhou could not be blamed for many things, especially that it was indeed his will to let Huang Daozhou serve as the crown prince's calligraphy teacher.
"In fact, the emperor was too lenient to the crown prince, and he didn't have the strictness of being a father. Children are naturally not afraid. Duan looked at his third son, Zhu Heyuan, who was only learning to walk for more than a year, and gently supported his waist.
Duan's belly is already too big not to be ignored, and the imperial doctor also said that he will have one more child in March or April.
- I wish I was a princess.
Duan thought in his heart.
"Why are you so strict with your son? He is my blood and bones, and the key is to make him respect me and love me. Are there fewer people who are afraid of me? Zhu Cihong could even sensitively see the awe of himself in the queen's eyes.
Of course, with the arrival of the fourth child, the queen has not been in this awe for a long time, and there is some calmness of an old husband and wife in her speech, and she will even laugh at the jokes made by the emperor in some trivial matters of life.
"By the way, why doesn't he worship me?" Zhu Cihong sat on the bed and also looked at the third son who was learning to walk: "Whether it is the study of Gezhi or the political strategy and military, I am beyond everyone, right?" β
Duan slowly walked to the emperor's side, blessed his body, and said with a smile: "When the emperor is a scholar of heaven and man, he understands the changes of the past and the present, if he says that it is out of everyone's mind, he is really humble and self-defiled." β
Zhu Cihong pulled her to sit beside her, and suddenly found that the queen's skin was not as tight as when she was newly married.
"It is normal for children to worship their masters and even deny their parents." Zhu Cihong remembered that he had such a period in his previous life, thinking that what the teacher said was right, but his parents didn't understand anythingβdidn't they? They are busy going to work all day and don't go to school.
"It's not bad for your majesty to comfort yourself like this." Duan smirked.
"But that's not the right trend." Zhu Cihong gently pounded the edge of the bed: "Qiu Guan has been growing up, I have not paid less effort, how can I make him a rotten Confucian?" β
"It's not a rotten country, is it? The concubine heard that Mr. Huang's character and knowledge are all good. "Duan's Yan sΓΉ down. She was very concerned about her sons' choice of masters, and she tried her best to refuse to let Fang Yizhi come to the crown prince at the beginning, because she was afraid that Fang Yizhi would teach another king.
Huang Daozhou's reputation was outstanding, and after his mother and sister inquired about her, he told her that this person was known as a sage in the world, which was very remarkable. Therefore, Duan especially hoped that Huang Daozhou could become the crown prince's teacher, and finally fulfilled his wish.
"Character and knowledge are of course important to ordinary people, but Qiu Guan will be the emperor in the future." Zhu Cihong paused and said, "Some people are not suitable to be emperors. At the beginning, I thought about choosing a suitable successor from among the sons, but it turned out to be a big rebellion, so I had to appoint Qiu Guan as the crown prince. Now I can't change it if I want to. The only way to do this is to teach him well. β
Empress Duan lowered her head and sat silently for a long time, and finally said, "Your Majesty, let's take a concubine." β
"What's wrong with you? As soon as I talk about the child's education, you will mention the matter of Concubine Na to me. Zhu Cihong unconsciously used his voice at work, which sounded chilling.
Now there are voices inside and outside the government and the opposition to persuade the emperor to accept concubines, because of the precedent of filial piety, it seems that the emperor does not accept more concubines is a stain on disharmony. Fortunately, Queen Duan gave birth to three princes one after another, and each of them was born robust, without the risk of smallpox, and the country was stable. This did not form a big wave.
"Isn't the emperor disgusted with the prince born to his concubine?" Duan pushed back.
Zhu Cihong just wanted to open his mouth to explain, but when he saw Duan's bulging abdomen, he endured it again.
"Go to bed early, and you'll have to go to court early tomorrow." Zhu Cihong rolled over and ended the argument.
"Tomorrow, the emperor will go to court alone." Empress Duan said coldly, obviously not wanting to stop there.
β¦β¦
When the fifth lunar month of Longjing arrived, everyone in Beijing wore leather and cotton clothes. All the scribes of the Shuncheon Prefecture were sent out into the streets. Look for people who have not changed into winter clothes and control them.
This is the rule set by Yoon Lee Bang-fa of Suncheon Mansion. The aim is to prevent people from freezing to death in poverty.
If it is placed in Zhu Cihong's previous life, there will definitely be people who will talk about it, thinking that the government is too lenient, what people like to wear, and if they wear summer clothes in winter, they will be arrested, so how can girls go out?
However, in Daming. The government is the second parent, and no one thinks that the government is lenient, but feels that it is the government that cares for the people.
The only controversy is that the means of love may be a bit excessive.
There are also poor people at the feet of the Son of Heaven, and for those who are found to be poor and unbearable, Shuntianfu forcibly sent them to Xuanfu, North Korea and other border towns. Although there is food and land there. But forcing people to leave their homeland is a tragic thing in the world after all.
"The day before yesterday, I received a letter from my family, saying that a ship to the Ryukyus had sunk, and only about a dozen of the more than 300 migrants survived, which is really tragic." Huang Daozhou looked at the forced migration team staggering on the official road, his face was worried, and he said to Xie Xuelong, who came to see him off.
Xie Xuelong said: "The court wants to be realistic, which is also forced to do it yourself." Although it harassed the people, it was for the sake of the country's century-old plan. β
Huang Daozhou was a little helpless, and laughed at himself: "The Holy Monarch is above, so naturally he can't see the suffering of such ant people. All my generation can do is to make fewer people die along the way. He paused and said, "Who would have thought that there would be people sitting in poverty today? I don't know how the world will look at my generation after thousands of years. β
Xie Xuelong stood with his hands in his hands, looking at the people in front of him.
As a great official, Xie Xuelong is not very proud of the position of the secretary of the ministry. Because of the problem of qualifications, many people give Li Laoshangshu face, but they may not give him face. The only thing he can rely on is the various rules and regulations of the imperial court. Although this helped him a lot, it also led him to become more and more dependent on the charter, and there was very little room for manoeuvre.
For example, this time the cabinet wanted Huang Daozhou to supervise the grain affairs of Korea and Haixi provinces and promote the implementation of education, but Xie Xuelong was very opposed.
Sending a perfect person like Huang Daozhou to that place to handle general affairs, isn't it a pearl secret investment?
Although I think so, there is no problem with the procedures of the cabinet, and Huang Daozhou himself is indeed qualified, and even His Majesty the Emperor has hinted that Huang Daozhou will be allowed to take office, how can he, the secretary of the ministry, object?
"There is also a benefit to going east this time," Huang Daozhou broke the dullness of his confidant and friend, "I just happened to use the eastern country as a test to promote the holy religion, and maybe in my lifetime I can see all the kings of Korea." He smiled cheerfully, dispelling the gloom in the air.
Xie Xuelong smiled reluctantly, and arched his hand: "I wish Shi Zhai a success!" β
"Accept the good words of the public, dare not serve your life!" Zodiac Zhou said goodbye and boarded the carriage heading east.
He finally glanced back, but after all, he didn't wait for his old friend Liu Zongzhou, and he felt a little melancholy in his heart. However, with the position of the feudal official, his ambitions can be displayed more and more, which is also an opportunity.
Just as the carriage was about to start, a sharp shout suddenly pierced the cold wind.
"Sir! Wait for me! β
Xie Xuelong and Huang Daozhou looked at the same time, only to see a fast horse galloping from the west, followed by a team of forbidden guards with dragon flags.
"Your Highness! How did you get here! Huang Daozhou jumped out of the carriage and hurried to meet him.
Zhu Hegui fell off the horse, his face was red from the cold, and he said with a crying voice: "My father just told me that my husband is going to Korea to be the governor. β
"But the Holy Decree brought His Highness down?" Huang Daozhou hurriedly asked.
"I took the horse myself and ran here." Zhu Hegui's tears were already flowing out, and he asked, "Mr. is going, when will he come back?" β
"Your Highness doesn't have to worry about the old minister." The root of Huang Daozhou's nose was sour: "Your Highness should take care of your body, don't displease the emperor." β
"Don't go, sir, I just need my husband to teach me." Zhu and Gui pulled on Huang Daozhou's sleeve and refused to let it go.
"Your Highness!" Huang Daozhou cried and said: "Liu Zongzhou is also a great Confucian in the world, if His Royal Highness has chapters and sentences that are incomprehensible and the scriptures are incomprehensible, he can be summoned to teach." β
Zhu Hegui just cried and shook his head.
Without waiting for Huang Daozhou to persuade again, a team of people and horses galloped on the official road again, led by an internal official, who rode straight to everyone before turning over and dismounting, with both hands and sleeves, and said: "There is a holy oracle!" β
Huang Daozhou and Xie Xuelong hurriedly bowed and saluted.
The crown prince still pulled Huang Daozhou's sleeve and refused to let go.
"Holy Message: Order the crown prince to return to the palace immediately without delay!" Neiguan Road. (To be continued......)
