Chapter 542 Holy Judgment(1/2)

 Yi Shiha only laughed, but under the clanging sound of the rails rubbing, she still carefully took the water and poured a pair of tea for Zhang Anshi.

Then he smiled and said, "When people live in the world, they may not be as good as His Highness, and they have all kinds of skills."

He paused and continued, "Actually, most people in this world, as long as they have one skill, they can make a living. We... In fact, to put it bluntly, if you are by your Majesty, you only do this thing. As for the others, it is secondary."

Zhang Anshi smiled and said, "I see that my father-in-law has a lot of other abilities."

Yi Shiha laughed dryly: "This has destroyed us. The ability is not about the size of the world. We are not the prime minister, nor are we a general, but we are just a slave. What do you need so many skills? In this palace, there are many people who are better than us, but aren't we the ones who serve His Majesty?"

Speaking of this, he looked up at Zhang Anshi: "But your Highness, you are different. You really get your Majesty's trust by virtue of your ability. Your Majesty relies on this is your ability! Just talk about this steam locomotive, yaya, I'm so scared when I sit here, but after this, I admire you."

"You said this thing... it can actually move by burning coal. It takes so many of us and travels hundreds of miles a day. This is something that you really can't imagine. But your Highness actually made it happen. Even if Kong Ming reborn, the legendary wooden ox and flowing horse would be willing to give up the disadvantage in front of His Highness's steam locomotive."

Zhang Anshi smiled and said, "Where, where."

The two of them brag about each other for a while, and Yi Shiha brought tea to see Zhu Di. When he came back, Yi Shiha said, "Your Majesty invites you to see you."

Zhang Anshi nodded and then came to Zhu Di's carriage.

Zhu Di was leaning against the large sofa fixed in the carriage, holding the teacup. The carriage was shaking, but his hand holding the teacup was very stable.

Zhu Di leaned against the cushion, his eyes half open and half closed, as if he was thinking about something.

Zhang Anshi said softly: "Your Majesty..."

Zhu Di nodded, looked up at him and said, "When will it arrive?"

"It should be early tomorrow morning."

Zhu Di smiled and said, "It's not too slow. A thousand miles of land is only a day and a night."

Zhang Anshi smiled and said, "Your Majesty might as well sleep for a while. When you wake up, you will arrive at the station."

Zhu Di shook his head: "I can't sleep a little, and I'm still thinking about the Raozhou station in my heart, ah..."

Speaking of this, the smile on his face suddenly dropped and he changed into a bit of depression.

Zhang Anshi said: "Your Majesty is really busy every day. This is a dispute between a railway department and a local prefect... You have already made Your Majesty like this... There are so many things in the world now..."

Zhu Di squinted him and said, "What I think is... is my silver flower worth it?"

Zhang Anshi: “…”

Well, your Majesty is still that Majesty.

Zhu Di sighed and said, "How do you view the matter in the memorial?"

Zhang Anshi said without hesitation: "I will deal with it impartially."

Zhu Di looked at Zhang Anshi strangely and said, "I thought you would be biased."

After Zhu Di said that, he smiled and waved his hand: "What's wrong with Hu Guang?"

When talking about Hu Guang, Zhang Anshi's relaxed face also faded. He also had a son, so he could understand Hu Guang's mood.

"He is taciturn and I... I don't know what to say."

Zhu Di nodded: "How could his son be an official in the Railway Department?"

Zhang Anshi said: "It was the minister who persuaded him that the emperor wanted to make a difference in Jiangxi and asked the Hu family to support him. When he got angry, he taught his children to work in the Railway Department."

Zhu Di sighed: "This is a loyal and honest man."

Zhang Anshidao: "I... am......"

Zhu Di said nodded: "Go down, take a good rest. When you arrive in Raozhou, there are still some people who are busy."

Zhang Anshi withdrew.

It is dawn in the morning, when the first ray of sunshine of a new day spreads the earth...

The steam locomotive slowly entered the platform.

It was also more than an hour ahead of time here. When the steam locomotive stopped at the two stations in front, I realized that the Holy Driving was coming.

Therefore, the Raozhou prefect, the co-magistrate, the judge and others came to pick him up in a hurry.

The people who came with it were the webmaster of Raozhou Station, the station chief and the clerk below.

At this time, the mist had not yet dissipated, but the platform was already crowded.

Zhu Di got out of the car, glanced at the tiger's eyes, and everyone bowed.

Zhu Di only had a cold face, without saying a word, and ignored it.

Only Chen Jia, the stationmaster of Raozhou Station, stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty is exhausted, please go and rest first."

Zhu Di pursed his lips, but did not object.

When the person came to Raozhou, he was not in a hurry.

So he was accompanied by a vast crowd and stayed at an inn somewhere around Raozhou Station.

This inn is obviously operated by Raozhou Station. Because it is a new building, Zhu Di moved in and immediately there was a team of guards from the inspection department outside.

Chen Jia was panicking at this time. After all, she had never seen such a big scene before. She saw that the person who came was not kind, so she naturally felt up and down. She immediately came to see Zhang Anshi secretly.

"Your Highness..."

Zhang Anshi had a cold look in his eyes and said with a stern face: "You guys did a good thing."

"This..." Chen Jia's face turned pale and her heart was even more panicked.

Zhang Anshi said: "Your Majesty is here to thoroughly investigate this dispute between the Railway Department. It is right and wrong, and there will be a sage! When your Majesty asks, you can just answer it with a real answer. Don't spread the right and wrong, do you know?"

Chen Jiacai breathed a little relieved and said with a bitter face: "This fact is..."

Zhang Anshi didn't want to hear his nonsense that was not very useful, so he waved his hand and said, "Don't talk to me, it's useless to tell me. After Your Majesty rests, you go and tell Your Majesty."

Chen Jia had no choice but to say, "Yes."

Zhang Anshi said again: "How about the injured person now?"

"It's still being treated, and the situation is quite dangerous, but... His Royal Highness, the Emperor, urgently transferred a few saints from Nanchang Station, and there should be no accident."

Zhang Anshi said: "People must try their best to save them, and the rest... are all details."

Seeing Chen Jia's uneasiness, Zhang Anshi's face calmed down and he comforted him: "Walking around the world with reason, it is hard to move around without reason. If you really have any grievances, don't be afraid. Just do whatever you want. Don't worry, no one can wrongly accuse you."

Chen Jia hurriedly said yes.

Zhang Anshi held his hands behind his back and suddenly smiled: "What are the people from Raozhou Prefecture doing at this time?"

"Ah..." Chen Jia was stunned, and for a moment he couldn't find the taste.

Zhang Anshi waved his hand and said nothing more.

The reason why Zhang Anshi asked about Raozhou Prefecture seemed to have guessed their actions.

In fact, Chen Fu, the governor of Raozhou Prefecture, and Wang Yan, the general, were also beginning to be nervous.

However, the people from Raozhou Station were looking for Zhang Anshi to ask for advice, but for them, it was obvious that... they also needed to ask for mediation.

All they could find seemed to be the Grand Secretary of Wenyuan Pavilion and the Grand Secretary Hu Guang who came with him.

Hu Guang was physically and mentally exhausted. After getting off the car, he actually wanted to find out the situation everywhere.

Unfortunately, no one paid attention to the people standing in Raozhou. After the Majesty was placed, he followed Zhang Anshi in a hurry.

He wanted to go up to ask, but he felt it was inappropriate. After all, the personnel of the Railway Department were wary of the Grand Secretary of Wenyuan Pavilion or the people in the temple.

Just when Hu Guang was anxious and lost, someone found him.

"Mr. Hu..."

Hu Guang was silent, or at this time, he no longer knew what method to deal with it.

The prefect Chen Jia said: "Mr. Hu has forgotten many things and is under the jurisdiction of the emperor... He was a Jinshi in the seventh year of Yongle. At that time... Princess Hu was the exam..."

Hu Guang nodded and said, "I have a little impression."

Chen Jia's expression relaxed slightly, and then said, "The officials are not lucky and cannot stay in the capital. Therefore, the officials of the outside world were the county magistrate, and now they are the prefect of Raozhou. Jiangxi is where literary talent gathers. If you can come to Raozhou for office, the officials of the lower ranks will be satisfied."

Hu Guangdao: "Is that true?"

"Mr. Hu is even a famous person in the dynasty. Who among Jiangxi has never spread the name of Mr. Hu? But the officials... I heard about some... something..."

Hu Guang raised his eyebrows and said, "What's the matter?"

Chen Jia seemed to be hesitant, and I don’t know if he should say, or whether he should conduct further testing.

This is how scholars deal with each other. They must first report their names, and then check whether they have had a relationship with teachers and students, and in the same year, and then further test the other party's situation, and finally decide what they should say.

But now Chen Jia is quite anxious. After thinking about it, she still said, "I heard that Mr. Hu is in the court and he is unable to roar alone."

Hu Guang's eyebrows and eyes suddenly stood up and said coldly: "What are you talking about?"

Chen Jia hesitated and said, "It's all rumors. I heard... Mr. Hu doesn't agree with the new policy, but... he has to. When the railway department entered Jiangxi, Mr. Hu did not agree. However... some people hope Mr. Hu can set an example, and even asked Mr. Hu's clan members to be officials. I wonder if this is the case?"

Chen Jia said, showing a look of regret.

Hu Guang is a great minister of Wenyuan Pavilion. It is a very shameful and humiliating person to be arranged as an official. Anyone would never accept it.

Chen Jia carefully observed Hu Guang's face.
