Chapter 112: Hope
Sun Chengzong blew Huang Liji's face.
The carriage was bumpy.
Once he was bitten by a snake for ten years, he was afraid of the well rope, so Huang Liji broke the window frame tightly, for fear of experiencing the experience of flying again.
He cursed the words that must be punished severely.
Sun Chengzong sat still.
Seeing that Sun Chengzong didn't agree with him, Huang Li was a little annoyed, and shouted angrily: "Sun Gong is watching a play? ”
Sun Chengzong shook his head.
"Then why do you think these people are hateful?"
Sun Chengzong said lightly: "It's okay." ”
"What do you mean it's okay?" Huang Liji asked, and said angrily: "These people ...... They...... Great rebellion! ”
Sun Chengzong said very calmly: "No, they didn't go against the grain. ”
Huang Liji immediately jumped like thunder, and said angrily: "What, what are you talking about, it is not you who dares to be beaten, and it is not you who suffers this great humiliation." ”
Sun Chengzong said very calmly: "They just treat you as an ordinary person, if they know that you are a bachelor in the court, it will be too late to climb." ”
Huang Liji was dumbfounded for a while.
Then Sun Chengzong shook his head and looked at Huang Liji with a wry smile: "Do you think this is a big rebellion?" You think that's what abominable? Do you think these bullying of good behavior is considered a capital offense? You probably think that this Tianqiaofang has already been ruined, right? ”
Huang Liji couldn't help frowning and said, "What do you mean by this." ”
Sun Chengzong's face swept through a thick sadness: "Please remember that Huang Gong remembers, this is the Jingshi, at the foot of the Son of Heaven, and the place where there is still the king's law, has Huang Gong been to Liaodong?" How many years have you not returned home, but have you ever resigned? ”
This series of interrogations made the embarrassed Huang Liji even more embarrassed.
Sun Chengzong continued unceremoniously: "The foreign world of the capital division is even more unfair, and it is even more terrifying, in Liaodong, the white bones are exposed. In my hometown of Gaoyang, there are homeless people and bandits everywhere. Before they became bandits, there were people who bullied them like this, their parents starved to death, their wives and children starved to death, and they raised their swords as bandits, and when they became bandits, they attacked the bazaars, burned and looted, and treated people as mustards. A bandit disaster wiped out the entire village. In order to levy slaves, three salaries were added, and the taxes became heavier and heavier, and hundreds of thousands of people became starving. But the tax is still on them! But those who read have built high walls, and the barns are full of grain, and their ears are not heard outside the window, and they are only interested in reading the books of the sages, and I will ask you...... What is this compared to those? ”
Huang Liji knew that it was impossible for Sun Chengzong to tell a lie, so he unnaturally showed a look of shame, so he simply bowed his head and said nothing.
After a long time, he said: "Sun Gong......"
"Huh?"
Huang Liji lowered his voice and said: "Today's affairs, don't show people, I am the first assistant, for the country's big plan, how can people know that the first assistant has suffered this humiliation?" This is not good for the country, it will make the military and the people have no reverence for the imperial court, and it will definitely leave endless disasters. ”
Sun Chengzong nodded.
There was silence in the carriage again.

Tianqiaofang inspection officer.
Yang Xian was very anxious to inspect it, and now that the rainstorm has become a disaster, I don't know what the situation is outside.
In fact, he should be calm, after all...... Now that the news has been revealed, he will soon be reinstated, and Zhao Ji, the chief secretary of the Ministry of Officials, is not here for this?
Now there are rumors that he may even take over the position of acolyte, which is also a squire, and with a bachelor added to the end, it will be completely different.
There are scholars in the Hanlin Academy, as well as bachelors and bachelors, these three people are almost the core of the Hanlin, and the attendants, scholars, and revisions and editors below are just the middle and lower classes.
If you can become a bachelor at this age, you will probably be one of the six departments in the future.
Thinking like this, Yang Xian's heart was relieved a lot, looking up for many years, who expected that she would be blessed by misfortune.
But this time the rainstorm made him anxious, and he had sent several waves of messengers out in a row.
These servants are also pitiful, such a rainstorm, and they have to walk around in the muddy water.
At this time, a scribe came in: "Patrol ......"
"How's it going?" Yang Xian asked excitedly: "What are the difficulties on Bai Juren's side?" ”
"I've already inquired, Baiju's people are on high ground, there is no obstacle, he learned that the inspection was so cared for, he was grateful, and made a poem for the students to send."
Yang Xian was immediately happy and said, "Take me to take a look." ”
So I took a piece of paper, there was ink on it, looked at it, and couldn't help but scratch my beard and say, "Haha...... It's too famous, it's too much, loving the people like a son, it's the duty of parents and officials, how can it be called the name of the Ming Dynasty's father? I'm still far from it! ”
The scribe said: "It's Li Xiucai's place, there are some difficulties at home, but someone has been sent to use a boat to send his family, parents, wife and children to a nearby inn on high ground to settle down. ”
Yang Xian was already laughing, and kept shaking her head, saying that she didn't dare to compare with those sages.
The scribe said: "Sijiao Pavilion, the students have also been there, there are a few scholars who have nothing to do, sitting there, they are all discussing, and after this rainstorm, when Yang Patrol is going to go to the Hanlin Academy, they will prepare an umbrella for the people, send one to Yang Inspector, and say that it is ...... Deeply gracious and virtuous, there is nothing to repay, only to talk about their hearts and minds as people. ”
Yang Xian put her hands behind her back, her heart was hot, but she couldn't hide her joy and said: "As an official, I should benefit one party, which is due, but it's a pity that I've only been here for two months and I'm leaving." Originally, I wanted to build a workshop here to teach everyone to benefit. ”
said, infinitely embarrassed: "But when I return to Hanlin, I will start Your Majesty and promote this matter." Alright, you go down. ”
The scribe nodded and silently retired.
Yang Xian couldn't help the excitement in her heart, looking at the pouring rain outside the window of the house, her chest rose and fell, and her heart became more and more eager.

At this time, the Emperor of the Apocalypse was sitting silently in the carriage, and he was extremely worried in his heart.
And it wasn't just because of what had happened at Tianqiaofang, that the heart-rending cries, and the ridicule and outrageous shouts made him angry.
There is also a concern for Zhang Jingyi.
Such a rainstorm, Tianqiaofang is already like this, I heard that Qingpingfang is even worse, the last time I went to the Zhang family's house, there is ...... The inspection department of Qingpingfang and the hundred households, where the terrain is very low-lying, such a situation, it is impossible to ensure that it will become a chaotic appearance.
He leaned on the cushion in the car, and the scenes that had just happened appeared in his mind one by one, lingering, and he was panicked and uncomfortable.
But...... The further you go, the fewer puddles seem to be.
I don't know if it's an illusion, but the carriage and horse have lost their previous bumps.
The Emperor of the Apocalypse was suspicious, opened the curtain of the car, he thought that the wind and rain had passed, who knows, as soon as the curtain opened, a strong wind mixed with the rain curtain blew in, and the world was still vague outside.
So he couldn't help but ask out loud, "Where is this?" ”
"Your Majesty, it's time to Qingpingfang."
The Emperor of the Apocalypse continued to look out the window.
And he saw the ground outside...... There was not much standing water.
Even the road is flat and not muddy.
Of course, this kind of flatness and neatness naturally cannot be compared with later generations, which can only be compared with other places in the capital.
In the wind and rain, even the Emperor of the Apocalypse saw people.
But I saw a group of people in soap clothes, braving the wind and rain, shouting something in their mouths, and actually went to help the crooked tree beside the road.
What these people said was not clear in the wind and rain.
But these people shrank their heads and looked very serious, as if this tree was their fate.
The Emperor of the Apocalypse said in surprise: "This is Qingpingfang?" Stop, hurry up and park ......"
As soon as the carriage stopped, the Emperor of the Apocalypse went out in the rain again.
The boots reached the ground, not as bad as Fang Cai.
The coachman really wanted to call to His Majesty to stop tossing and quickly find a place to shelter from the rain.
I can't stop it.
The Emperor of the Apocalypse faced the wind and rain and walked to the side of the road, and saw four or five people busy supporting the tree, and some people were laying earth and stones under the tree.
The Emperor of the Apocalypse was a little confused.
One of them looked up and saw the Emperor of the Apocalypse, and said, "Don't stand here, don't stand here, find a place to shelter from the rain." ”
The Emperor of the Apocalypse allowed the rain to rain on him.
At this time, Huang Liji and Sun Chengzong had to chase after them.
The Emperor of the Apocalypse continued to look at these people curiously, only to see that these people were still trying hard to protect the tree.
He thought about it for a long time, couldn't figure it out, and finally asked, "What are you guys doing here?" ”
"Tree, tree......," one of them shouted, "If this tree falls today, it will not survive when it clears." ”
The Emperor of the Apocalypse was very puzzled and said, "What does the tree have to do with you?" ”
"Evaluation, evaluation."
"Awards......
The man began to curse: "That Liu Xiangchang of Wuma Lane is not a person, for the sake of evaluation, he is crazy, and he actually came out to protect the tree in such weather." ”
The Emperor of the Apocalypse was like a curious baby: "What kind of alley chief forced you to ...... here?"
"Shit, fuck." The man scolded: "He is the head of the alley, I am the head of the street, how can he move me, it's just that this surname is Liu, he came out to protect the tree at this time in order to evaluate the excellence, what should I do?" If I let this tree die, the evaluation at the end of the month will definitely be gone, and I can't afford to lose this person......"
The Emperor of the Apocalypse frowned, still not understanding.
Of course, he can't understand that the street and alley chiefs have become unrecognizable, and there are one or two 'struggles' that later generations will say, and others will not be idle, everyone is a face-saving person, and no one wants to be on the black list, and then there will be no bonus.
"You hurry up and find a place to shelter from the rain, go forward, there is a tea shop, that tea shop, our street has been contracted today, it is for you to shelter from the rain, I don't want you to pay for tea...... Don't sit around here......"
After the street chief roared, he went to fight with the people and the wind and rain.
