Chapter 118

Harmony with light

Author: Spring turns to summer

Harmony with light

Seeing that the man lying on the ground was dying, a trace of embarrassment flashed across Zheng Mi Chang's face, and he immediately called his subordinates: "Go, ask a doctor to come over. We can't let him die so easily. I still have to give a confession."

It’s not recorded!”

"Yes, sir!" After accepting the order, the subordinate quickly left the Chief Secretary's Yamen.

"Don't worry, Mr. Governor, the remaining people will be dealt with one by one by lower officials." After Zheng Michang finished his instructions, he came to Hu Zongxian again and said flatteringly.

"Well, just deal with it according to the laws of the Ming Dynasty." Hu Zongxian nodded and responded.

"I understand, I understand." Zheng Michang's brain was spinning rapidly, and he quickly understood the meaning of Hu Zongxian's words.

The Governor said that it should be done in accordance with the laws of the Ming Dynasty, which means to put them in prison first and then take care of them slowly! At this time, he still takes into account the face of the court and does not want to cause too bad impact, otherwise

How can someone be the governor of Zhejiang Province? Look at this realization!

When Zheng Michang thought of this, he felt a little more enlightened in his heart, and looked at Hu Zongxian with eyes full of reverence.

And Hu Zongxian obviously noticed Zheng Michang's eyes. He couldn't understand why Zheng Michang looked at him with this look. Zheng Michang wouldn't have been stimulated too much in a short period of time, would he have become dementia?

Hu Zongxian cleared his throat and said, "Okay, now that the case has been solved and the stolen money has been recovered, there is no need for me to stay here anymore."

"Slow down, Governor!" Zheng Michang and Hai Rui, who were standing by, saw this and quickly bowed and saluted.

After Hu Zongxian left, only Hai Rui and Zheng Michang were left on the scene, looking at each other.

"Your Majesty the Chief Envoy, I still have some matters to deal with, so I will take my leave first."

Upon seeing this, Hai Rui also bid farewell to Zheng Michang.

"Hai Rui, don't leave in a hurry. You have done me a great favor in today's case!"

Zheng Michang took three steps and two steps at a time, keeping up with Hai Rui's pace, his face full of gratitude.

"It doesn't matter, this is what a subordinate should do. Now that he has seen the case, why not solve it?" Hai Rui said in a deep voice after hearing Zheng Michang's words of thanks to him.

"Oh, forget it, I owe you a favor! If you need my help in the future, just words will do." Zheng Michang patted Hai Rui on the shoulder and said softly.

"His Majesty Hai Rui, thank you Chief Ambassador for your advice! It's just a matter of today. If it had been anyone else, Hai Rui would have tried his best to solve the case, because these insects are sucking the blood of my Ming Dynasty." After Hai Rui finished speaking, he turned to him.

Zheng Michang cupped his hands and spoke righteously.

"Okay, okay, since you have eliminated so many insects for the imperial court, then as your superior, I should provide you with some help within my ability, right?" Zheng Michang looked at Hai Rui helplessly and said.

.

"Although that's what I say, you can't use the power given to officials by the court to do some private affairs. This will be harmful to the people..." Hai Rui ignored Zheng Michang's intention and said to himself.

"Oh, why did I encounter such a stupid head like you? I would like to give you a word of advice: in the officialdom, you must be like the light!"

"What I said earlier is still valid."

After Zheng Michang finished speaking, he waved his sleeves and left without looking at Hai Rui's expression.

"Oh, are you like the light?"

Hai Rui looked at the full moon hanging in the sky, muttered silently to himself, and then started on his way home.



When Hai Rui returned to the Chun'an County Government Office, it was already very late. When Hai Rui opened the door, he saw his wife, Wang, leaning on the desk. She seemed to be sleeping, with half of the embroidery in her hands.

It also fell to the ground.

Upon seeing this, Hai Rui leaned down, picked up the embroidery that fell on the ground, and gently placed it on the desk.

Such a slight movement also woke up Hai Rui's wife Wang. She rubbed her eyes and wondered: "Hey, wasn't I doing embroidery? Why did I fall asleep?"

"You don't have to wait for me to come back before sleeping again." Hai Rui looked at his wife Wang's haggard face and said softly.

"Isn't this a habit?" Wang was a little embarrassed about this.

Then Wang turned his attention to Hai Rui and asked, "Why did you come back so late? Did you encounter anything on the way?"

Hai Rui sighed, picked up the teapot on the table, poured himself a cup of tea, and then told everything that happened today.

"You mean, after you reported the post-disaster reconstruction progress of Chun'an County to the Governor, you also solved a major case of treasury theft for the Chief Envoy!" Hai Rui's wife Wang said after hearing this

After the narration, he said in surprise.

"Well, that's probably it." Hai Rui glanced at his wife with a strange look in his eyes, without denying it.

"Then you will be a high official soon? With the support of these two adults, your career will be smooth sailing in the future, and you will at least be able to become a fifth-rank official!"

After Wang said this, her expression became more and more excited, and she was already thinking about the beautiful life in the future.

"I refused." Hai Rui looked calmly at his wife's excited expression.

"Why? Do you still want to live the life you had before? If His Majesty hadn't increased the salaries for all officials, our family wouldn't even be able to afford meat now! Even if you don't think about yourself, you have to think about our future children.

Think about it! Do you want him to live the same life as you? "

"If you want to be an upright official, you can, but you can't make your family deprived of food!"

Hai Rui's wife, Wang, cried after hearing her husband's answer.

Facing his wife's questioning, Hai Rui could only choose to remain silent, because Hai Rui could not find a definite answer to this question.



Forbidden City, Yangxin Hall.

Jiajing was sitting cross-legged on the futon, exhaling and inhaling, and his whole body was wrapped in lavender magic.

Since the last time the Spirit Gathering Array was built, Jiajing's practice speed has increased rapidly, and the magic power in his body has become increasingly abundant. Master and apprentice Li Lisheng said goodbye and left after translating the books.

Before leaving, Jiajing also handed over the copies of the formation secrets to their master and apprentice as agreed. Along with this, he also gave them a large sum of money, which should be enough for them to repair the Qingxu Temple.

"Your Majesty." At this moment, Lu Fang's extremely respectful voice came from outside the palace.

Jiajing took back his magic power and said calmly: "Come in."

Then, Lu Fang bowed and walked quickly to Jiajing without making a sound during the whole process.

"It's so late, what do you want from me?"

"Your Majesty, this is the news from Jin Yiwei. It is said that some officials want to hinder this time and prevent the court from collecting the full amount of salt tax!"

After Lu Fang finished speaking, he handed the memorial to Jiajing.

Jiajing opened the memorial and closed it after seeing the names recorded on it.

"Hmph, let them make trouble first. Don't worry about making trouble now. Be careful about making a list in the future!"

"Let the Jin Yiwei side pay attention to these people. Once someone impeaches them, they can take them down directly."

After Jiajing finished speaking, he added this sentence.

"Yes, Your Majesty, I will inform you about this later." Seeing that Jiajing had already made up his mind, Lu Fang responded very respectfully.

"By the way, Your Majesty, it will be the day of sacrifice in a while. Do you want to familiarize yourself with the sacrifice process in advance?"

"Give it to me."

"yes."

After Lu Fang finished speaking, he handed the memorial document recording the entire sacrificial process to the emperor.
