Chapter Ninety-Six: Ruling by Inaction (Asking for Recommendation, Collection)

Cheng Mansion, Humble Administrator's Pavilion, an old man in a purple costume, was looking through the mountains of recitals on the table.

The house is full of books and elegant furnishings, but on the bookshelf next to it, there are three pickled and even gold-dusted human heads.

Although there is only one head, and he looks at the infiltrating person, but at this time, one of the people has his head open and closes his mouth, and he is reading loudly: "The great water in the east of the river has flooded countless fertile fields, and it is suspected that there are water demons as a disaster." ”

"There is a great drought in Gannan, and sometimes there are demons grazing locusts and cultivating locust Gu, which leads to the displacement of a large number of people. ”

"Officials in Jiangbei are seriously corrupt, swallowing up more than ninety percent of the money for disaster relief, and there are cults to bewitch the people and rebel and cause chaos. ”

"Hahaha! This country is already in a mess! Cheng Lao Pifu, as a scholar of the current dynasty and the chief minister of life, are you just sitting idly by?"

The old man in the Chinese costume just didn't hear it, just continued to look at the folds, and occasionally marked the word 'read', and then stopped dealing with it.

Another person suddenly became indignant and said: "The Manchu Dynasty is corrupt, and it is full of rats, Cheng Lao! According to the words of the students, we should use heavy laws and heavy rules to correct the system." Then the new law was implemented, fatigue was abolished, and the mediocre and incompetent people were eliminated, so that this great separation from the mountains and rivers could restore a little bit of the demeanor of Emperor Yuan Jing. ”

The old man in the costume still turned a deaf ear, watching one fold after another.

Suddenly, he raised his eyebrows slightly, and suddenly opened his mouth to ask the last person, "Xiangsheng! How long has Yongnan's excerpts been here?"

The last head said, "It's been more than a month!"

The old man in Chinese clothes nodded, and then wrote a comment on the fold, as if he wanted to allocate money and food, go to Yongnan for disaster relief, and at the same time post another post to instruct some officials to accompany him to supervise.

The second person who spoke before saw it, and suddenly shouted loudly: "Teacher, Ma Heng's students know that they are the most ruthless, they have the ability, but the means are dirty and unclean. Your snowflake silver and a cart of grain have passed through his hands, and in the end I am afraid that less than fifty percent will be left. Lu Man can take on this important task, the student has been friends with him for many years, knows his temperament very well, and will definitely not be greedy for ink. ”

Closing the fold, the old man in the Chinese costume coughed twice, looking a little tired.

He closed his eyes and took a few heavy breaths before he said: "The road is full of squares and more than flexible, and the ambition is limited but the ability is limited. If this Yongnan disaster relief matter is handed over to him, as long as he walks out of this Gyeonggi land, it will be a dish in someone else's bowl and a piece of meat in a pot. Not only is there no money and food, but his life is afraid that he will not be able to keep it. ”

Coughing a few more times, the old man in Chinese clothes continued: "Although Ma Heng was born in the market, he likes to be clever, and his methods are ugly, and his appearance is not elegant. But there are also some bottom lines, good at dealing with people, Yongnan is thousands of miles away, and we can't reach it. If the disaster relief money and grain are to be transported to Yongnan intact, it is absolutely impossible. It depends on how much Ma Heng can keep!"

When the head in the middle heard this, he was silent for a while, but he became indignant: "Teacher, you still want to reform! You just cut off the student's head, hang the student's head here, and the student still has to speak." We must reform! We must change the law! Otherwise, one day, the country will not be a country and the edifice will collapse. ”

This time, there was no need for the old man in fancy clothes to answer, but the head of the first person who spoke before sneered.

"Ha! The sage has a word, and he does nothing. Innovation and reform seem to be vigorous, but in fact, it costs the people and money, and damages their vitality. Being in the central critical place, the convergence is the important task of all parties in the whole world. How many of them are true and how many are false, do you know in your heart? Orders are given to the localities, whether for the sake of the safety of the people or for the eradication of local ills, they will eventually be exploited by people and become local tyrants and bullies, and the squires and landlords collude with officials to poison the people. ”

"You said that you want to rectify the rule of officials and eliminate the black sheep among the officials. When you arrive at the place, it becomes the best time to eliminate dissidents and kill Zhongliang. ”

"You said that you wanted to reform and change the law, but when you arrived in the locality, you became a good business for those corrupt officials and corrupt officials who exploited the people and took advantage of the opportunity to make a fortune in the city. ”

"The benefits have been distributed, and all those in power are protecting each other and covering each other. Occasionally, people who did not belong to them came out of the crowd and were either assimilated by them, or they were made into human heads and hung on the wall. ”

"Hahaha... Da Li is hopeless! Bian Jun! Don't you see it clearly? Your teacher, sitting in front of you, this sanctimonious old horseman, he is the biggest beneficiary. How could he allow someone to oppose him, someone to take away his interests?"

"He reviewed the recitals every day, sat in the center, and held authority. It seems that it is for the sake of the peace of the world, but in fact, it is not to control the dynasty and seek the foundation of eternity for his family?"

Obviously, there are three heads, each with its own identity.

Now I can only be sure that the head in the middle, named Bian Jun, is a student of Cheng Penghai, but I don't know... Since he is a disciple of Cheng Penghai, why was his head cut off, and he was made into dry goods and hung on the wall.

"Crazy, I don't know why the teacher wants to keep you. You madman!" said the man who thought he was a student of Cheng Penghai.

It's just that at this time, maybe only Cheng Penghai can see that on his body, a crimson remnant dragon is entangled all over his body, but it is still tough and terrifying.

The remnant dragon was like a huge python, entangled in his body, constantly twisting, not only restraining Cheng Penghai's powerful cultivation, but also killing his lifespan.

On the top of the heads of the three heads, there are different images of 'dragons'.

These 'dragons' who seem to be lucky, restrain the red remnant dragon from time to time, giving Cheng Penghai an occasional chance to breathe.

If Feng Linwan is here, he should recognize that these three heads, when they were alive, should all be 'hidden dragons' hidden in the mountains.

To put it simply, these three people all have the qualifications and potential to become a generation of emperors, but whether they can jump out of the abyss and fly into a dragon is another matter.

Moreover, none of the three of them belong to the Dali royal family, and the dragon qi is not in the same vein as the Dali dragon qi, and even is in an absolute hostile state with the Dali dragon qi.

Cheng Penghai is using the heavenly life numbers of these three people to resist the backlash from the dragon qi.

Coughing a few more times, Cheng Penghai's face swelled with a different kind of red.

"It's fast! It's going to be soon! Wait! Wait!" Cheng Penghai put down the bloody handkerchief, waved his hand and took out a piece of jade pendant, stretched out his hand, and stimulated the aura in the jade pendant.

The jade pendant just vanished in place, and then vanished.

But I don't know what it means or what it's used for.

In the midst of leaving the palace, Feng Linwan's life began to get better.

For the time being, he won over Gao Zhen, one of the five ministers.

reciprocating the favor, Gao Yan seems to be repaying Feng Linwan, giving people and money, helping Feng Linwan really gather a group of 'caring people' in the palace, so that his voice is finally no longer just imprisoned within five steps, but can really get out of the imperial city.

"Your Majesty! King Taibao, with all the ministers, please go to court. ”
