The weather begins to enter the early summer from the warm spring breeze, the rice is planted in the early spring, the seedlings that resemble weeds are soon green all over the hillside, and then the slender and long burst out, moistened by the sun and rain, only to tassel and bloom the rice flowers, look at the rice flowers that swing with the wind all over the mountain, the flowers cry in the heart of a burst of joy, and then there is a month, to the middle of June, the rice of this year, the last season can be ripe, then it is the time to harvest, and so on after the harvest of the last season, and plough the field immediately and then plant the next season.

This is her hard work in Kawaguchi Prefecture for a year, and it is also all her hope.

"Ziyu, come and help me!" Hua weep crawled in a bush with a steep slope, her head came out, and her coiled black hair had long been unkempt and loose by the branches.

"Yin'er, be careful, you, how can you climb up there?" Ziyu secretly said that he was not paying attention, and this Yin'er slipped away, and hurriedly climbed up from the edge of the field below.

Hua Cry had nothing to say, the bushes were taller than her, her head retracted, she only heard the sound of cutting trees, Ziyu bumped and climbed into it, Hua Cry dragged the branch that had just been cut off with a thick thumb to him, and wiped her sweat: "Come, you drag these out, be careful, don't drag all the leaves off, come back and drag them in a while." ”

"You cut so much? This little tree can't be used as firewood, what are you going to do? Ziyu dragged the pile of branches, it was really laborious, many of them were still entangled by other wild vines, and it took effort to drag them out, and ...... Yin'er said that he couldn't drag off the leaves, but when the small tree and the wild vine were separated, they had already fallen off.

Ziyu dragged back and forth several times before Hua Wei stopped, and she also dragged a bunch out.

"Look at you, sweating profusely, hey, this is all scratched, you girl, don't you feel pain?" Ziyu picked up Hua Weeping's hand distressedly, and the back of her hand was scratched several times by the branches.

"It's okay, call the two officials to tie up the small branches here, take them back, and put them on the outskirts of the city, where the cattle were grazed before." Hua Weeping smiled, withdrew her hand, and busied herself with sorting out the large pile of small branches.

After working for a long time, he hurried back to the outskirts of the city, under the bare hillside that was gnawed by cattle.

Ziyu approached the river, only to find that at some point, a little bit of land had been reclaimed here, which felt very different from the paddy fields in the countryside, because the soil in this field was newly paved, and it was all loess.

"A few of you, come and help cut off this branch, don't be tender, just cut the slightly older ones under the branches that are more than three inches long, and bring two or three new leaves, listen, it's a new leaf, it's not a young leaf or an old leaf, it's the leaf that grew out of the spring rain this year, not last year's, not the young leaves that have just appeared in the summer today, understand?" Hua Xi rolled up the sleeves of her hands, rolled up her trouser legs, stepped on the mud, and commanded several officials to help cut branches.

"Yin'er, what are you going to do here?" Ziyu also listened to the instructions and wanted to come to help.

"Camellia trees, you can't pick camellia seeds, you can only prune and cut seedlings." Hua Weeping kept in her hands, responding while busy.

Hua Weeping had planned to go up the mountain to find tea trees to pick camellia seeds, but it was not so easy to find, maybe you couldn't find many trees in a few mountains, and there were fewer tea seeds, and she had to catch the time, she didn't have much spare time to go over the mountains and mountains to find it, so she thought of cutting branches and planting seedlings, and now planting them, may have to wait for the next year to plant.

All the loess in this field is loess, deliberately dig in other places to fill in here, just in order to insert the branches can grow roots in the new soil to survive, is her father Hua Changting taught her the method, the tea tree is hard, resistant to survival, as long as the cut is just right, and then use the soil, that is, such as loess to cultivate, you can use the branches to plant tea seedlings.

Just because at that time, the people were still not full, and no one planted any tea trees, but now it is different, the people in the countryside have good land, there is food to eat, just eat enough, but also have to consider letting them also plant some things with economic value, improve poverty, and so on in the next year these tea seedlings planted, no need to take care of it, after two or three years, they can be harvested, sold to rich and noble families for silver.

"Yin'er actually understands these things, Ziyu can't wait to drink the tea she grows!" Ziyu lets Hua cry and mess around, she always likes to do something unusual, accompany her to make trouble, and praise her from time to time, as long as she is happy.

After a few days of hard work, I finally inserted the cut tea tree branches, which were also filled with grate grass, and the creeping branches and leaves were used to shield from the sun, so that the tea branches below could play a protective role before they grew roots.

"So it can sprout?" Ziyu felt a little incredible, he had read a lot, but most of them were benevolence, righteousness, etiquette and wisdom, and he knew very little about these practical things.

"Okay, remember to send someone to water every day, and when it comes to spring next year, it should be able to grow to a foot tall and you can plant!" Hua Wai rubbed his palms, and the yellow mud crumbs on his hands fell.

The two were about to enter the city and return to the county office, when a government official in the distance rode a fast horse to the front, and before he could get off the horse, he shouted to Ziyu: "My lord, go back to the county government quickly, someone is coming from the court!" ”

"Chaozhong? Quick, give the horse to the officer, and then you escort the flower girl back to the city. Ziyu hurriedly took the officer's horse, jumped up, bowed his head and cried to Hua: "Yin'er, you go slowly, don't worry, pay attention to safety, I'll go back first." ”

Seeing Hua weeping and nodding, Zi Yu turned the horse's head and flew away.

Someone from the DPRK?

Hua Weeping felt a burst of excitement in her heart, could it be that the deeds of reclamation in Kawaguchi County so that the people could have food have been spread to the imperial capital? The emperor is here to reward Ziyu? Do you have to be promoted?

Thinking of this, his face was full of joy, he looked left and right, and said to the officer: "No horses?" ”

"Gone?" The officials spread their hands together.

"What about the carriage when I came with my lordship? Haven't come back yet? Hua Wei anxiously looked at the road in the distance.

"I didn't come back, and the coachman probably thought that the girl and the adults would not return to the city until the sun went down." The official quickly shook his head.

"Let those few not be busy, just clean up and walk back!" Hua Weeping pointed to the servants behind him who were busy serving the tea seedlings.

This Ziyu didn't take her with her, she rode away by herself, causing her to be anxious and excited here now, this is a big deal for someone from the court, and she cares more than Ziyu.

Walking briskly for more than half an hour, Hua Weeping was escorted back to the county government by the officials, regardless of the mud and sore feet, went straight to the front hall, and arrived in the courtyard in front of the hall, saw a team of face guards, felt inappropriate, slipped back to the back house from the side door, freshened up and changed into a clean dress, then asked Tianyue to prepare tea, she personally brought it to the front hall.

There was an official sitting in the official seat in the hall who seemed to be not small, and there were two people below, who should also be an important official, Zi Yu sat on the side and talked softly with a few people.

With the tea in the past, there were already tea bowls in front of several officials, Hua Wai first continued to the main person, and then to the next two people, and finally arrived at Ziyu, after pouring the tea, he stood aside, like a maid after listening to the dispatch, I don't know that I really think it's a maid.

Hua Wai pricked up his ears to listen to their conversation.

"In this matter, this official will not listen to one side of the story, please Lord Ye prepare a report on the details of the incident tonight, and when this official investigates clearly, he will bring it back to the imperial capital, and ask the emperor to decide!" The big man at the top spoke.

What the? A one-sided statement? Please let the emperor decide? Aren't you here to give a reward? How do you listen to this tone, it seems that you are here to ask for sin?

looked at Ziyu not far from him, his face was gloomy, but he had to be forced to smile and nod his head again and again.

In May of the 50th year of the Ping Dynasty, Ye Hanlin, who had been in office in Kawaguchi Prefecture for nearly a year, ushered in a supervision envoy sent by the DPRK and the central government, not to see his political achievements, but that he was impeached in the DPRK.

The Ombudsman came to investigate and verify.

It was only at this time that Hua Wei realized that today was not a decree and a reward, but really a question.

Suddenly changed from full of excitement to panicked flesh.

At the beginning, Ziyu insisted on reporting this to the imperial court, and she tried her best to stop it, she didn't expect that it was only about half a year, and the court knew about it, didn't it mean that the imperial court let Kawaguchi County fend for itself? What's going on?

Not to mention whether the DPRK and China still care about the life and death of Kawaguchi County, now it is to investigate the matter of the Qingshui Pavilion fire burning people County Ling Ziyu concealed and did not report, this matter is a small point, it is a mistake in governance, to put it in a big way, it is a bully, what is the crime of bullying the king? If you kill your head, you will be punished by the nine clans!

Hua Weeping suddenly trembled in her thoughts, but fortunately no one looked at her, she suddenly came back to her senses, and hurriedly and carefully retreated to the side door and returned to the backyard.

Can't calm down, it's a felony!

At the beginning, she really didn't expect this, she just thought that the court would not pay attention to the trivial matters in Kawaguchi County, and when she and Ziyu did a good job in the livelihood of Kawaguchi County, they made it bigger, and only praised the merits and went to the court to receive rewards.

He went back to the house and closed the door, pacing back and forth in the house, anxious.

After thinking about it, something suddenly came to mind.

It was the tax collection in the city a year ago, Ziyu acted toughly, let those rich people cut their blood, and paid a whole year's business tax, and now the court suddenly paid attention to Kawaguchi County, maybe it was the big people behind the rich people who were angry and found a reason to impeach Ziyu.

There is also reclamation, so that the people have fields, but the owners of the fertile fields under the mountains have no tenant farmers, and they have delayed the spring ploughing, and this loss is probably counted on Ziyu, and it is difficult to ensure that the masters behind those landlords do not hold grudges.

This is troublesome, Ziyu is in danger.

Hua Cry gasped for breath a few times and forced herself to calm down.

Thinking back to listening to the tone of the official just now, he was not too blunt, and the words he said were also very pertinent, and he estimated that these supervision envoys should be honest and fair officials, otherwise they would not be so trusted by the emperor and become supervision envoys.

If this is the case, we can only find room for change from the Overseer.
