Chapter 13 Plum Yellow Rain
Nanjing's official department's right attendant Lang Ya, called 'three halls', is actually the place of 'bird market'.
Seeing that Lord Squire was addicted to playing with birds and couldn't extricate himself, Second Master Zhao was really impatient to wait, and finally couldn't help but speak:
"Birds, that's not how they play."
"Huh? Shocked! The squire was so frightened that he almost sat on the ground.
"You know?"
"I understand a little." Zhao Erye smiled and said: "People can't teach birds to call, and if you want the yellow finch to learn the magpie, you have to go to the magpie forest; To learn, you have to go to places with a lot of. ”
"The oil hyacinth isn't that loud." The squire is humane.
"You find a big water tank and put the trained oil hoist at the bottom of the tank. The bird cage is hung on the top of the tank and the lid is closed. Zhao Erye passed on his experience and said: "The oil gourd thinks that it is dark, and it screams fiercely, and the yellow finch is hooked to the throat in order to press the mouth of the oil gourd." ”
"Connoisseur!" Lord Shilang gave a thumbs up, then stood up, looked Zhao Shouzheng up and down, and said, "Your Excellency is the new branch Zhao Zhuangyuan?" ”
"Xiaguan Zhao Shouzheng, meet the great uncle." Second Master Zhao hurriedly took two steps back and saluted respectfully.
"Excuse me." Lord Squire waved his hand and motioned for him to come out with him.
Under the eaves of the corridor outside the second hall, there is a tea table, on which is the teapot and tea set of the waiter, and there is a small red clay charcoal stove next to it.
Zhao Shouzheng looked at it and sighed in his heart, this is life.
Lao Tzu will not be an official in Beijing in the future, and I will leave Nanjing to mix.
Live 10 more years!
While skillfully making tea, Lord Shilang smiled at Zhao Shouzheng: "I heard yesterday that Zhao Zhuangyuan has arrived. The heart has not to rest for two days before he comes. ”
"How dare you ignore the sinful body?" Zhao Shouzheng hurriedly glanced at the board and said: "It was already past noon after entering the city yesterday, so it was inconvenient to bother, so I came to report early this morning." ”
"It's right not to come, Li Butang held a meeting yesterday afternoon, and they all went to play." Lord Shilang poured Zhao Shouzheng a cup of tea and said: "In the future, Hugh mentions what kind of guilt, half of this Nanjing city has been sent over, and the eldest brother does not laugh at the second brother." ”
"Thank you, sir, for your relief." Zhao Shouzheng hurriedly took the teacup with both hands, and his heart was half settled.
"Besides, you are the best talent, and you have been wronged by being a magistrate. And to be attached to Guo Zhi County, it is too condescending. Lord Shilang patted Second Master Zhao on the shoulder again, full of expectations and said: "The big one has a heavy responsibility, and the horse horse gallops away." Do a good job, show your performance, and we will definitely lift you up again! ”
Second Master Zhao was completely relieved when he heard this. It turned out that the dignified squire personally received him, but it was just a value for the official.
That's right, I'm a dignified champion, and the kind that has been stamped!
I couldn't help but say secretly, son, you finally have a wise man's thoughts, and people don't plan to give your father and me little shoes to wear, hey, hey.
"Shao Zongbo rest assured, the lower officials will definitely do their best to eliminate all difficulties and benefit the people." Zhao Erye had spoken to Fan Datong before he came, and he would naturally not be ridiculous at this time.
Who knew that before the smile appeared on his face, he listened to Lord Shilang's solemn tone: "There is a problem in Suzhou right now, and only Zhao Zhuangyuan can solve it." ”
"Huh?" This line has never been right, Zhao Erye smacked his lips helplessly, feeling that the taste was wrong.
"That's right." Lord Shilang said slowly: "I just received Ding Weizi from Liu Zhixian in Kunshan the day before yesterday, and it turned out that his old man died of a sudden illness. ”
"It's so unfortunate." Zhao Shouzheng sighed.
"According to the regulations, he will return to his hometown for funeral treatment in the near future, so Kunshan County is about to be sealed, the people are lost, and it is the rainy season, so you can't go without a person in charge for a day."
Bird Shilang glanced at Zhao Shouzheng, whose face did not change, and said in his heart that this person is really as unfathomable as the legend, and he is not in a hurry at this time.
"The ministry discussed, if a new candidate magistrate is sent over, Suzhou Prefecture will have to usher in three new magistrates. The change of commanders in half of the seven counties is very detrimental to the overall situation of flood control this year. ”
Seeing that the other party was as immobile as a mountain, the bird waiter said in his heart that no matter how tricky he was, he would not be smiling and generous, so he said directly: "So we have written to Beijing, let the current magistrate of Wu County stay for a period of time, and Zhao Zhuangyuan will go directly to the acting magistrate of Kunshan - this will have the least impact on Suzhou's flood control." ”
"......" Zhao Shouzheng blinked, revealing an indescribable smile.
Hey, son, as a father, I still have to believe in you......
Bird Shilang thought to himself, and felt a sense of ridicule from Zhao Shouzheng's smile. Busy poured him another cup of tea, and persuaded bitterly:
"Rest assured, this is only the need of the overall situation of flood fighting, and it is not counted. There is a way to cross the sea, showing the true character of a hero. Zhao Zhuangyuan is a good piece of steel, so it should be used on the blade. I also hope that you will focus on the overall situation, and after the flood season in September, this side will naturally send someone to Kunshan to replace you, and then you will go to Wu County to take office. ”
"......" Zhao Shouzheng didn't speak.
Yo, this is a nonsense to ridicule the official with silence, so I don't bother to refute it?
That's it, don't act anymore, stop laughing. The bird waiter sighed secretly, and simply picked out, what do you like.
"This is a joint decision of the Nanjing Ministry and the governor of Yingtian, that is, the first assistant heavenly official in Beijing, will not risk interfering with the overall situation of flood control to change a temporary appointment."
The bird waiter sank his face and said in a businesslike tone:
"For the magistrate of a county, the river embankment is his battlefield, and disobedience is to escape from the battle.
A bolt of lightning struck, and thunder rolled overhead.
~~
The back hall of the East Courtyard of Zhao Mansion is the place where Zhao Hao played hide and seek with four delicate maids when he first came.
In the melodious sound of the piano, Zhao Gongzi leaned back on the recliner and wanted to sleep back.
But he rarely couldn't sleep.
Could it be that you slept too long yesterday?
Zhao Gongzi had no choice but to look at the pouring rain outside the door. In a trance, he suddenly had a sense of detachment that he didn't know what time was going on, and that it was me and not me.
The past life, which has long been no longer remembered, is intertwined with the scenes of this life.
But he still can't recall the names of the four young ladies......
"Hey......" Zhao Gongzi couldn't help but sigh for his memory.
Ma Xianglan, who played the piano for him, asked softly, "Why is the son sighing?" ”
"I think we've known each other for a whole year." Zhao Gongzi didn't know how to answer, so he said nonsense. "Time flies."
"yes, time flies." Ma Xianglan nodded, although it was actually fourteen months away from two days, she was still very happy that Gongzi could say this.
"Why don't we play with the blind fish?" Zhao Hao suddenly had no head to suggest.
"Touch the blind fish?" Ma Xianglan was stunned, where is this?
"Forget it, it's not appropriate here." Zhao Gongzi shook his head first, and after speaking, he curled his legs on the recliner and said, "One day, let's change to an open place to play." ”
Ma Xianglan felt that Zhao Hao had suddenly fallen into a strange chaos. The invincible son, who is omnipotent and looks down on the heroes of the world, seems to have become a lonely and helpless rebel like her in an instant.
I don't know why this feeling of sympathy arose, but Ma Xianglan still got up and walked over, sat next to Zhao Hao, gently stroked the top of his head, and gently hummed a song to comfort him.
"Ling Bo is only on Hengtang Road, but he is gone. Who is the year of Jinsehua? Yueqiao Flower Courtyard, Zhuhu Window, only Spring Knowledge.
Feiyun is in the twilight, and the color pen has a new question to break the intestines. How much leisure is there? A Sichuan tobacco, the city is full of wind and flocculent, and the plum is yellow when the rain ......"
"The beauty gave me a splendid section, how can I report the Qingyu case. Sister Xianglan, don't leave me, okay? ”
"Well, I can't get rid of it......" In this season of plum yellow and rain, Ma Xianglan felt the fetters in Gongzi's heart for her for the first time.
ps. The third more, ask for a monthly pass~~ There are two more that have not been written, and they will be sent at noon.
