Chapter 10 Seeking Tiger Skin

Li Guangqi looked at Shen Zetang who only ate tea and was silent, waited for a long time, his heart was like a cat, and he couldn't help but speak: "Now the situation in the court, you should see it more thoroughly than me, the prince controls political affairs and reuses Xu Bingyong, that old man is now fearless, except for your officials and my etiquette department, who do you say is not coerced and lured by him?" Ding Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry was afraid of things, and his attitude was uncontrollable, so the old man didn't like it, kicked Guo Jia, and wanted to place Zhao De as the right waiter, and then gradually encroached. But I don't know what happened, and I abandoned it, and now the selection power and responsibility are in your hands, and you should choose someone who is close to you Shen Er, but? ”

Looking at Li Guangqi, the officials in the court have all been tempered, which does not hinder his sharp eyes.

Seeing that Shen Zetang was silent, he raised his voice: "Shen Er!" ”

Shen Zetang ignored him, looked at Qin Zhong instead, and smiled faintly: "Lord Li's mouth is unobstructed, and he has the right to spray feces in the Qin Academy." ”

Qin Zhong said: "My family has been practicing medicine for generations, although he also took the imperial examination when he was young, he did not rank first, so he decided to abandon Confucianism to study medicine. Let's talk about it for the time being, and it's better for me to go out to greet the officials and guests. With that, he got up and took his leave.

Only then did Shen Zetang look at Qin Yanzhao: "Even if you have been a doctor for generations, how can you rather be a doctor than use medical skills to help all sentient beings?" ”

Qin Yanzhao put down the tea bowl and said slowly: "My father has also asked me many times, and I replied to him, one is the low status of the folk doctors of our dynasty, and the other is the ambition of the bird. ”

Li Guangqi was slightly stunned, secretly surprised that his son-in-law's words and deeds were very decent on weekdays, but now he was sharp, and he hurriedly looked at Shen Zetang's expression, but he was as calm as usual.

Relieved and worried, this Shen Eryuan was so happy and angry that it was really difficult to guess.

Shen Zetang snorted and asked Qin Yanzhao: "I have seen your official register, and when you were a foreigner, you were in charge of managing the river and supervising water conservancy. It is the rainy season in June of the lunar calendar, and in previous years, the Yellow River will burst at this time, and the flood will be raging, causing the houses to be empty, the boats to travel on land, and people and animals to drift. After the flood, the locust plague also followed, and the Yellow Stream was seen mourning all over the wilderness and starving for thousands of miles along the way, and the scene was unbearable. But the imperial court allocates tens of millions of taels of silver every year to control the river, but it has repeatedly failed to achieve results, what do you think? ”

Qin Yanzhao stood up, knelt down in front of Shen Zetang, and said after a bow: "Xiaguan was originally in Jianghuai to supervise the canal, ensuring the smooth flow of grain and cargo official ships, but in the flood season, official ships often drifted, and grain and goods were destroyed in accidents, and they were repeatedly impeached by officials in the DPRK and China, and blamed him. ”

Li Guangqi's old face was red, but in front of Shen Er, he boasted that his son-in-law had outstanding political achievements and had been rewarded repeatedly........ This Shen Er has a good memory!

Qin Yanzhao continued: "According to what the lower officials have seen, Huang Huai is integrated, and the treatment of Huang is also the treatment of Huai. The rain and flood season is coming, the root cure of the lower reaches of the Yellow River is imminent, according to my law, repair the three embankments, bind the water to the trough to narrow the river, wash the sand with water, and the sand goes with the water, so that the ground can be lowered to prevent the breach. ”

Li Guangqi hurriedly interjected and came in: "My son-in-law once petitioned for a sparse chapter, but it was rejected, and Xu Lao'er still continued to use the method of blocking the north and sparse the south and diverting the killing situation, which is really self-contained. ”

Qin Yanzhao sneered: "What is it that is just an excuse to rest on your laurels and just be greedy for ink." Repair the embankment plugging up the imperial court, please receive a huge amount of silver, the money has been embezzled more than half, the rest is not enough to cut corners, I heard a while ago, Xingyang winter order cost tens of millions of silver to repair the embankment, May cracks appeared, causing the people of Li to complain, I don't know if Lord Shen has heard? ”

Shen Zetang still said in a steady tone: "I have heard a few legends, but I haven't seen anyone play ........!" His face froze, he pursed his lips and stopped talking, and the three of them looked at each other, and they all sniffed out something treacherous.

After being silent for a long time, Shen Zetang looked at Qin Yanzhao again, and said in a deep voice: "The right waiter of the Ministry of Industry is absent and many people covet it. You are not outstanding among the recommended officials, if you look at Li Shangshumian to appoint you, I am afraid that it will be difficult to convince the public, if you resent you because of this, I am afraid that the official career will be more difficult, I have a proposal, I don't know if you want to hear it. ”

Seeing Qin Yanzhao's jaw fluttering, he gradually said gently: "The Xingyang River embankment is urgent, I will play you as the right capital imperial history, go to the governor's river, and order you to investigate the case of the embankment crack in the southern section of Xingyang River at the same time. Do you dare to take responsibility? ”

Qin Yanzhao raised his head and looked at Shen Zetang's elegant and modest face, which was very easy to get close to, but in fact, it was all fake.

Seeking skin with the tiger is probably how he feels at this time.

.........................

Dusk is late, and the crescent moon is like a hook.

At the end of the feast, when the people dispersed, a burst of green smoke drifted away.

But seeing that the black pressure in front of the Li Mansion occupied a street, some officials and guests were greeting each other and saying goodbye, and some had already driven away one after another by carriage and horse.

Shen Zetang didn't take a carriage, he leaned on the pink wall along the Fanhua Hutong, walked slowly forward with his hands behind his back, looked at the hundreds of apricots with interest, and pressed the wall to poke out, red like a red flame.

Xu Jing didn't have his leisure, frowned and pondered: "The second master originally belonged to Jia Wanli, a member of the Ministry of Labor, as the right waiter, why did he suddenly change his mind?" ”

A carriage galloped by, and Shen Zetang said in a low voice: "Although Jia Wanli is loyal to me, his talent is not matched, and I am afraid that he will not be able to do this job for long." Qin Yanzhao is different, he has courage and ambition and is quite talented, and he is still young, and if he looks at him in a few years, he will definitely have great achievements. ”

"But the second master only checked his details before." Xu Jing was puzzled and asked: "It's not a person who can handle it, if it is used by Xu Shoufu in the future, it will definitely become a big trouble." ”

Shen Zetang retracted his gaze, glanced at him, and a smile appeared on his lips: "If Qin Yanzhao can rectify the breach of the Yellow River this time, there will be no disasters during the flood season, and tens of thousands of Li people along the border can survive safely, what is this!" ”

He also said: "I asked him to investigate the case of the cracking of the winter embankment, and he has his own reasons." A year ago, the 10 million funds for repairing the embankment and plugging the southern section of Xingyang River were requested and received by Xu Zhengong, the squire of the military department, and the governor of the river. I have been secretly retribution, he is stupid and arrogant, the stream is insatiable, he must be greedy for ink, just because he is Xu Bingyong's own nephew, no one dares to offend Song Shu. If Qin Yan is upright and not afraid of power, he has the ability to find out the real evidence and bring him down. Not only can Xu Bingyong be arrogant and arrogant........ ”

After a pause, he said meaningfully: "Even if Qin Yanzhao wants to attach himself to him in the future, he can't. ”

Xu Jing was enlightened in an instant, stared at Shen Erye's clothes, walked to the carriage freely, and was served by Shen Zhao and hidden in the public opinion.

His mind is slightly confused, and all kinds of tastes are indescribable, but fortunately he has never been an official in the same dynasty as him, otherwise he doesn't know how he died.

borrowed a knife to kill people, and he suddenly sympathized with the knife!

..................

Qin Zhong received a call from the palace, Concubine De's mother had a stomachache, she was afraid that she was going to give birth, so she had to go.

Liu rushed back to Qin's house early with him, and if he entered the palace on weekdays, Qin Zhong would be taken care of by her in his robe and crown.

Shun Yu waited until Qin Yanzhao finished sending off the official guests before getting into the carriage.

I thought that he would still ride a horse, but how could I have thought that as soon as the car door opened, Qin Yanzhao actually came in with his heels and sat down indifferently opposite her.
