Chapter 399: The Teacher Often Takes the Blame
"Little peanut, little peanut!"
Although the old salted fish in the house seemed to hear Ah Liu's words and screamed twice, Little Peanut turned a deaf ear and ran out immediately without thinking about it. He has been living in the county government for the past few days, and he is wearing that set of silk clothes, which at first glance is no different from Ah Liu's dress, and besides, the errand and officials in the county government are used to seeing him, and there is no one to stop him at all.
He already knew that Zhang Shou was in the second hall, but he hurried to the door, and found that only Zhu Tingfang's guards were there, and when he saw him, he just glanced over, and no one opened his mouth to let him go, he couldn't help but feel a little more relieved, but he didn't dare to enter the door rashly, only waited at the door, but his ears were raised high, trying his best to eavesdrop on what was being said.
"Jiang Ge Lao wants to catch the mistakes of General Zhu and Dr. Zhang, but he doesn't want to think about it, the old lady received the holy order to sit in Cangzhou in person, and his protégés are desperately attacking General Zhu and Dr. Zhang for favoring the rebellious people, inviting names and selling straight, doesn't it mean that Sang scolded Huai and slandered the old lady? His protégés are all over the world, but how can he compare to the disciples of the old lady? ”
In the second hall, Zhang Shou didn't know that Little Peanut was eavesdropping outside the door at this time, but Lu Chan sold it so explicitly, he couldn't help laughing. Jiang Ge's old protégés are all over the world, but all the protégés of the people are added together, and if they want to compare with Ge Yong, it is indeed almost bad, just because Ge Yong also has a disciple who is the current emperor! The emperor recognized it himself, and the word teacher has always been on his lips!
Of course, if the emperor is weaker, the result of Jiang Ge Lao vs Ge Taishi may not be easy to say, but is the emperor easy to bully today?
"Moreover, Jiang Ge Lao suddenly started a war on several sides, it was too big, Confucius and him were originally mortal enemies, Zhang Daxue was not in the cabinet for a long time, but he was repeatedly suppressed, this time his henchmen actually threw dirty water on the heads of the two of them in a frenzy, no one could bear it! Plus Zhao Guogong, and Lu Shangshu, no, Lu sacrifice wine, Chu Gonggong said, I don't know what he thinks......"
Zhu Tingfang listened lightly to Lu Chan explaining the situation in the capital, and out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of Ge Yong concentrating on reading a book, looking deaf, and from time to time poked the contents of the book with the fingers of his right hand, and on the other hand, he grabbed Zhang Shou with his left hand and asked him to explain what joints in it, even if he didn't have to think about it, he knew that Ge Yong was just making a gesture, but he couldn't help but be angry.
Ge Yong wanted to drag Zhang Shou back to Beijing to study arithmetic wholeheartedly, and then give him the trouble of Cangzhou...... Don't be so obvious!
Therefore, Zhu Dagongzi took a deep breath with a tiger face, and then suddenly interrupted Lu Chan and said: "Gonggong Lu, if I remember correctly, eunuchs should not be able to go out of Beijing, right?" ”
Without waiting for Lu Chan, who suddenly changed color, to open his mouth to explain or plead, he said casually, "I'm not one of those civil officials who can't eat the ancients, I just want to know, since this time an exception has been made, then I think you will not be a messenger, because anyone can do it, why bother eunuchs?" Cangzhou lacked more than a dozen people from the county order to the subordinate officials to the subordinate officials, and the imperial court did not fill it, but sent you? ”
Lu Chan was originally distracted, eavesdropping on what Ge Yong and Zhang Shou were saying, and when he found out what the two were talking about, he listened to the strange-sounding symbols, and his scalp was numb, and when he realized that Zhu Tingfang was sharp, he heard people question him about his intentions after the color changed, and he was even more caught off guard.
Although I really wanted to talk about him left and right, or vaguely diverted this topic first and slowly mentioned it, Zhu Tingfang's gaze was too oppressive. He couldn't even avoid the sharp eye knife, and in the end, he simply turned his heart sideways and confided his intentions.
"The matter of the establishment of a port in Cangzhou has not yet spread in the DPRK and China, especially Jiang Gelao is still completely kept in the dark. However, since General Zhu and Dr. Zhang had already contacted the merchants of Shanxi and Suzhou, and there were officials from these two places among the officials of the old faction of Jiang Ge who were besieging Jiang Ge from the DPRK and China, it was not necessarily so easy to conceal this news until Jiang Ge Lao was pulled from power. ”
"Moreover, even if Jiang Ge Lao steps down in the future, whether it is a Confucian scholar, a Zhang scholar, or even Wu Ge Lao, who used to be like a sound worm, do you think they will be with the Zhu family, or more precisely, with the emperor? No way! These officials rushed out of the thousands of troops in the field, and in the final analysis, they actually believed in themselves a little more. ”
"Since those people can't believe it, and General Zhu and Dr. Zhang are doing their best to serve the emperor, don't you want to put aside those constraints and plan a new Cangzhou? You must know that Cangzhou is subordinate to Hejian Prefecture, but the Zhizhou Yamen has been absent for a long time, and although the Changlu County Decree covers the sky with one hand, the district and county orders are subject to the Hejian Prefecture after all. What if the old system is reversed? ”
"Furthermore, if Cangzhou can be upgraded to a prefecture, including Nanpi County, Yanshan County and Dongguang County, then not only can the canal area be separated from Hejian Prefecture, but it will also be enough to compete with it, and the coastal area will be fully included. If you are worried that the future wharf will not be able to be controlled like Tianjin, the tax customs and the supervision of the army, the celebrant is willing to contribute! ”
When Lu Chan said this, he saw that Zhang Shou finally pulled out of Ge Yong's arithmetic book and looked at him, and Zhu Tingfang was also solemn, he thought that at least the two uncles had paid attention to his words, but who knew that Zhang Shou stood up directly.
"Not in his position, not in his own politics, I just talked to people casually at the request of General Zhu, whether it is the specific details, or how it should be in the future, but I don't know very well, Gonggong Lu also asked to discuss with General Zhu. I'm just a scholar, and Dingtian is a teacher in Guozijian, how can I have such a great ability to think so far-reaching. ”
Without waiting for Lu Chan to say anything against it, he said with a smile: "Moreover, since you said before that the emperor has expectations for the utility of the cinchona tree, the schedule of these prisoners leaving for Qiongzhou Mansion cannot be delayed." They have just received a hundred rods, and I intend to see how they are now, and when they can go, so that they may not be delayed. ”
"It's the first time I've been out of Beijing, and I don't know anything about astronomy, geography, hydrology, or anything like that, and I'm not as far away as a knowledgeable teacher. If Gonggong Lu asks to teach Cangzhou affairs, my teacher, a ready-made master, is right in front of him, why bother asking me, a fledgling boy? ”
Seeing Zhang Shou arch his hand as he said and strode out directly, Lu Chan was stunned. Immediately after, he heard a bang, turned his head to look, and found that Ge Yong was already so angry that he smashed the handrail.
"This damn stinky boy! If there is anything to push on the teacher's head, is there a lazy student like you? You don't understand astronomy and geography? Who was the guy who said the dynamic spectrum equilibrium equation in front of me before that and caused me not to sleep well all night? ”
Zhang Shou, who had already been out of the second hall, only didn't hear Ge Yong's roar, as for the annoyed gaze of the future uncle in the back vest, he couldn't care less, and when he went out and saw the little peanut, he didn't hesitate to pick up the person and leave.
Teachers often carry the pot, and they should have been used to it for a long time...... Right?
As for the dynamic spectrum equilibrium equation, it can't be calculated without a computer, and he listed it to fool a complete layman in the field of arithmetic like Hua Zhang.
As for listing the equation in front of Ge Yong, he just said hello first, lest when the shopkeeper Hua was really stupid enough to ask Ge Yong for advice in the future, he would be hunted down by the teacher who was inexplicably angry and angry......
Anyway, he already understood what Lu Chan wanted, but he didn't want to get involved at all - didn't the eunuchs want to play a further role, and they were still playing the banner of checking and balancing civil officials for the emperor? At the invitation of Zhu Tingfang, he had already said that he had moved the north and south to join the vertical and horizontal, and he didn't bother to care about the next thing.
Cangzhou is not his own place, and his clear attitude still has to be corrected!
Xiao Peanut, who had been eavesdropping outside just now, didn't understand it at all, after all, what Lu Chan said was too big, too miscellaneous, and the level of the characters was too high, but Zhang Shou's excuse when he came out was relatively simple. At this moment, he was honestly dragged out by Zhang Shou, and after staying away from the second hall, he explained in a low voice: "It was the sixth brother who told me that I could come over, I didn't understand anything just now." ”
He wanted to say that he didn't hear it, but it was really a lie with his eyes open, so he could only claim that he didn't understand.
Zhang Shou smiled when he heard this, and said casually: "If you don't understand, you don't understand, even if you understand, it doesn't matter." But forget about that now, because we're going to see Xian Yunhe and the others now, and it's more important than what you've heard. ”
Little Peanut hurriedly nodded again and again, and all his thoughts were suddenly focused on Xian Yunhe's situation, and all the words he had just heard were thrown out of the clouds by him: "Well, Dr. Zhang, don't worry, I will soon forget those things." ”
Zhang Shou was amused by Little Peanut's honest attitude, but he remembered the scene of the execution on the platform in front of the lobby just now.
The news of today's execution had already been released, and compared with the previous trial of big profiteers and corrupt officials, there were far fewer people who came to the gate of the county government to watch and wait for the news, and he even heard the news come in and report that there were not even a few textile workers and cotton farmers who had been in the same boat with Xian Yunhe and others before.
At first glance, this seems to be a clear line, but when he saw Zhu Er at the end of the day, Zhu Er whispered to him that many cotton farmers and weavers did not dare to come, because they felt that even if they couldn't see it, they might still hurt it when they heard the beating, and they couldn't help but feel emotional.
Because of this, he ordered someone to prepare a cloth roll for the prisoner to gag - whether it was the hypocrisy of the gentleman's cooking, who did not want to hear the wailing of the lamb to the slaughter, or said that it was something else, anyway, if he had not to be present, he would have found some excuse to avoid such an occasion.
At this time, when he entered the county government prison with Little Peanut, he saw several new prison officials who had just taken office coming forward with smiles on their faces, and he smelled the smell of blood and medicine in the air, and couldn't help but sigh softly in his heart.
If it weren't for Zhu Tingfang's previous fierce rectification, getting rid of many errands and prison officials in one go, and using Cangzhou Wumen to suppress the backlash due to this group of people who were laid off, one of which was directly sent to salt labor with great public anger, and the honest group was responsible for escorting the Qi family and other prisoners who were sentenced to exile on the road, if this prison was still in charge of the old group of people, I am afraid it would still emit a musty smell.
And now, with the rapid end of many previous prisons, this place has also been swept from the inside out, and the air has improved a lot, but with today's collective execution, I am afraid that this smell will take many days to dissipate.
Smelling this smell, Xiao Peanut's face was already pale, and he unconsciously grabbed Zhang Shou's arm, and the whole person trembled a little. At this time, he finally understood what Ah Liu meant when he said that Zhang Shou didn't let him go over to see it.
If he really saw the scene of the execution at that time, I am afraid that he would not be able to help but rush forward!
Zhang Shou felt the strength of dragging his arm, and couldn't help but glance sideways, and saw that the little guy's forehead was densely covered with beads of sweat, so he coughed, and when he saw that a person came back to his senses, he reached out and patted his head, and then said in a deep voice: "Don't move for a while, don't make a noise, understand?" ”
Little Peanut bit her lip hard, and then nodded emphatically. When he entered the depths of the prison, the miserable snort was endless, and he still had a heart in his throat. Seeing that in the wooden fence cell on the left and right of the passage, the straw mats were spread on the ground, and several people were lying there, and there were jailers who were busy giving people medicine, he couldn't help but subconsciously wanted to step forward, but then he held back.
Thinking of Zhang Shou's admonition, he almost bit his lip and bled out, but he still forcibly followed Zhang Shou. Immediately after, he heard Zhang Shou ask, "What is their current situation?" ”
The head of the jailer on the side pretended not to see Xiao Peanut's pale face - who wouldn't pay attention to the people around Zhang Shou, and who wouldn't know that this young man had made trouble with Xian Yunhe? It's just that because of the young age of the person, and the fact that he was originally exonerated by Zhu Tingfang along with others, others didn't dare to chew their tongues.
"Back to Dr. Zhang, in the end, he is a good hand from the capital, this skill is amazing."
As if he was afraid that such an explanation would not be enough, the head of the jailer explained with a smile: "A hundred rods go down, but only the skin and flesh are broken, and the muscles and bones are not hurt. Besides, Mrs. Ge instructed that the wound should be cleaned with soju, and then the wound was wrapped with medicine, and the pain was a little painful, but it would be ...... to raise it in the future."
Listening to the spittle of the head of the prison outside, a man in the cell who was in pain and grabbed the rotten straw with his hand to vent his anger couldn't help but scolded in a low voice: "It's easy to say, you try it?" ”
Xian Yunhe saw that the other people's faces were twitching, or moaning and screaming because of the drug, although no one agreed, but the mood was about the same, and he couldn't help but smile bitterly when he had also fainted twice when he was beaten before.
Even if it may be true that the head of the jailer outside said, the executioners control their strength very well when they carry out their actions, but the capital crime can be avoided, and the living crime is unforgivable, but the suffering is not less! But even so, even if you think about it, you still can't avoid resentment, people are like this, and it is inevitable that you will have to look at Shu.
As if because he was scolded, the head of the jailer shouted angrily: "In the past, how could those who were beaten before exile have such treatment, let alone cleaning the wound and applying medicine, carried it down and thrown it into the cell, life and death are life, the family has no money, and they can't survive the days of relief, and they are directly dying of pain and illness, there are many more!" If it's not the emperor's benevolence, it's not Dr. Zhang's justice, you can wait to die now! ”
