Huang Zun listened with a deep face, and after occasionally glancing at Governor Zhuang's mansion, he sighed slightly.

Governor Zhuang knew that his subordinate was strict and strict, but he was not an elm pimple.

What this kind of new science and technology scholar cares about most at this time is nothing more than the two things pursued by the disciples of Confucius: one is the monarch and the ministers, and the other is Zefu and the common people.

So to open this kind of conceited and clear stream of stunned knots, just follow these two paths.

So, after Zhuang Yumin finished talking about Zefu Cangsheng's tune, he put on the most pertinent sword: "By the way, Brother Huang, do you know that Gonggong Liu can sit in the position of the commander of the Weaving Bureau, who recommended him?" ”

"Who?"

"The prince's companion, Wang An's father-in-law."

Huang Zunsu couldn't help but be stunned when he heard the identity of this person. He has just entered the official career, and he is not very familiar with the names of those eunuch companions in the inner court, but he was really surprised to hear that the current prince's companion can recommend his colleagues to be weaving admirals.

The saint doesn't like the prince, everyone knows it.

Zhuang Yumin smiled meaningfully: "Lao Huang, this mansion knows what you are wondering about. Are you thinking, how can the prince's companion, who is not the person in front of Concubine Zheng or King Fu, get the blue eyes of the saint? The old man told you that this Wang An Wang'an, the prince, he is very capable. Three years ago, King Fu went to Luoyang to take up the domain, and Concubine Zheng Guifei sent more than 100 boxes of all kinds of treasures and silk to be sent out of the palace and taken away by her son. And guess what? His Royal Highness the Crown Prince didn't know what to think, so he came and carried away ten boxes. Fortunately, the prince listened to the report in time, rushed to the East Palace at a gallop, and returned the box on the same day, and only said that it was the first time the prince saw such a beautiful withered wooden box, because his son liked delicate woodwork, so he showed the child a few glances to learn. After this matter calmed down, Long Live Lord was full of praise for the prince. ”

Huang Zun understood: "No wonder the prince can talk in front of the saint." ”

Governor Zhuang nodded: "So, Gonggong Liu is the person of the prince, and he is also standing in the East Palace, and those imperial historians of your Donglin faction, if you want to impeach him just because you are not used to seeing the Weaving Bureau, you will not cut off your arm." Hey, the old man doesn't know, you are reading all day long, do you think about the wind and rain in Beijing? ”

Huang Zunsu looked sideways out of the car window, not because he couldn't hold his face because of what his boss said, but because he was in thought.

After all, he still has expectations in his career, and the information given by Governor Zhuang is very useful.

While he was pondering, the carriage stopped.

The men who were sitting behind the coachman jumped out of the car, as if to check the movement, and then came back to report: "Two masters, something strange happened in front of them, saying that a young grandmother from a rich family went to the gold pit to fish for a small girl, and another woman went to save her." ”

The gold pit is a dung pit.

When Governor Zhuang heard this, his face sank, and he scolded: "Ignorant and foolish, I drowned my baby in the pit again." ”

Huang Zunsu had already stood up, said, "Go down to the official to take a look", and got out of the car with the two officials.

After walking a few feet forward, the dirt road was already crowded with people watching the excitement.

This section of the road is at the junction of Songjiang Fucheng and the countryside, because it is close to the Wusong River, although there are often livestock and goods trading on weekdays, there are no serious houses, and there are some carriage and horse shops sporadically, and the shopkeepers pour feces and urine into a puddle not far from the roadside.

The mounds entered the pond, and they couldn't gather again, so they didn't even bother to collect the night incense here, and the days were long, and the smell was unbearable.

Today, however, the stinking dung pit has become a sweet treat.

The front of the pit was full of people, and it was more lively than watching the stage singing.

In addition to the peddlers' pawns and laborers, there were actually a few people wearing turbans and robes, apparently scholars who went out of the city to visit the Wusong River.

Their faces were full of excitement, but they did not move, and their strength was spent on their lips, and they were passionately commenting on them.

"Ouch, I can't see my head!"

"Iniquity, iniquity, this dung pit is so unfathomable."

"Wonderful, that girl has a bit of guts."

"Ah, it's caught, it's caught, Amitabha, the big and the small have been caught."

Huang Zunsu frowned, picked up a group of men who were in danger and couldn't save them, and rushed forward.

When he arrived at the front of the crowd, seeing the girl squatting on the ground crying, Huang Zunsu couldn't help but gasp.

"Aoi-chan!"

That girl was the maid of the Huang family.

When the maid Xiaokui saw the male host, she jumped up on the ground, and spoke in a hurry but stammered: "Grandma, grandma is in the pit, save, Miss Zheng save." ”

Almost at the same time, the officials who came with Huang Zunsu also exclaimed: "That's not Miss Zheng!" ”

But seeing Zheng Haizhu's right hand piercing from Yao's armpit to her chest, she forced her to face up on her back and expose her mouth and nose in an entrained posture, and with a few strokes of her left hand, she pushed a burden roll to the shore, and a baby was wrapped in the swaddling clothes, crying heartbreakingly.

After Huang Zunsu reacted in an instant, he was about to jump into the dung pond, but the two officials hurriedly stopped: "Master, I can't help it, let the little ones go down." ”

At this time, the officials on another carriage also rushed over and dragged Huang Zunsu back.

Two officials threw themselves into the dung pond, one replaced Zheng Haizhu, who was already a little physically exhausted, and the other grabbed the swaddling clothes and tossed them, and the four adults and a baby finally went ashore safely.

Huang Zunsu stepped forward and hugged his wife, and called her by her name.

Fortunately, although Yao's face was full of filth, he did not turn his back on his anger, and reluctantly opened his eyes to look at his husband, indicating that he was sober, and then turned his head to look for Zheng Haizhu.

"Grandma, I'm fine, thank you for your help."

Zheng Haizhu sat on the mud floor and gasped for breath while reporting to Yao's safety.

Beside her, the little one in swaddling clothes cried louder than when he fell into the manure pit.

Zheng Haizhu picked up the baby and looked at it, there was no vernix on his head, his face was not wrinkled, and it was estimated that he had been touching it for more than half a month.

A kind handyman woman in a nearby carriage shop brought a bucket of hot water and an old cotton jacket to free the baby from the dung package, rinse it, and wrap it in the old cotton jacket.

Master Huang's family scroll was in distress, so embarrassed, the tolerance and officials were naturally busy blasting away the men who were watching the excitement.

Only a middle-aged man in cloth clothes who was quite old but had handsome facial features, but against the scattered crowd, approached him, and said loudly: "Official, here is the class master who came to Ganzhou to sing Yiyang dialect, this female doll, let it be taken away, although it is hard to learn drama, I have something to eat." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, he said "huh" to Huang Zunsu, who was looking up.

A few days ago, a few corners of the class master were singing on stage, and a man suddenly reprimanded loudly, how can he sing praises for a eunuch, and then brushed his sleeves away.

Unexpectedly, when I met again today, it was an official in a blue robe.

Although this class owner is doing a business that is despised by others, he has some lonely arrogance in his bones, and the troupe is already traveling around, and the class owner is not as afraid of the official master as the local people.

He immediately bowed his hand to Huang Zunsu and said, "It turns out that it was the parents who reprimanded us that day. The old man's wife and the girl are both brave and kind people, and the villain admires them. Lord, there is a person here to watch the excitement, the villain recognized him, that day he also scolded the villain's team in order to make money regardless of face, I didn't expect the full of benevolence and morality of the man, encountered today's danger, the favorite to stand by and watch the head and taste. ”

Zheng Haizhu had already seen clearly that this man was indeed the Yiyang dialect master who Zhang Dai and Zhang Yanke had come to sing Liu Gonggong's judgment, and he agreed with his words in his heart.

But after all, this is not an occasion to debate the merits, and it is also inappropriate to damage Huang Zunsu's face in front of his subordinates.

Thinking of this, Zheng Haizhu stood up and blessed the head of the class, saying: "The little woman is a friend of Zhang Gongzi, and I heard Gongzi say that the team under her feet is highly prestigious. It's just that this baby was the first to be discovered by the grandmother when she passed by, and she made a vow to take it in, and she had to ask the baby's real life-saver first. ”
