Chapter 20 New Deal
"You are going to kill me, I know, you are going to kill me, Liangshanpo has many thieves, and your subordinates are busy suppressing bandits. I am a magnificent army supervisor and was thrown into Xunyang City...
I live in the guesthouse, and at night there will be leaves rustling..."
Yun Zheng said impatiently: "Are you afraid of the wind blowing leaves?"
“There are always people walking around the roof…”
"That's the cat walking around, are you so angry that you're over?"
"Is it my illusion that the snake fell from the beam into my tent?"
"Maybe it's a house snake. I have a house snake in my hometown. I've eaten a lot of fat and often fall off the beams..."
"Your hometown is in Shu! There is a custom of raising snakes there. I am going to Shandong..." Li Chang had long since lost his calmness at the beginning, and his voice became louder and louder. At the end of his speech, tears were almost falling. I thought that he was a Confucian scholar who was spoiled by his family since he was a child. He lived to be thirty or forty and experienced those terrible things. However, after staying in Xunyang for a few days, he encountered everything and was bitten by evil dogs when he walked on the street.
Yun Zheng lay on the table and said lazily: "Didn't Your Majesty send you a guard? They are all masters and will definitely guarantee you to be safe and sound. Besides, I am not stupid. I know that you are the one sent by Your Majesty to monitor me, how can I explain to Your Majesty to kill you? Get your mind a little bit."
Yun Zheng completely lost patience with this person who was already extremely suspicious.
"The elite soldiers in the world either come from you or from Di Qing's sect. Your Majesty's guards are not as good as your arrogant soldiers and generals who crawl out of the dead, they can't stop them.
I know that you won’t kill me, you’ll kill you if you want to kill you, you just want to drive me crazy!”
Yun Zheng looked at the two guards with anger and red faces, then looked at Li Chang, and walked over to pat Li Chang on the shoulder to comfort the guy. Unexpectedly, Li Chang rushed behind the guards.
Withdrawing his hand that was stretched into the air, Yun Zheng knocked on the table with his knuckles and said, "Can you give us colleagues some face? Yes. You are right. I can beat you because I can punish you at most after beating you. I don't care if the Yun family has too much money. I will do it for a long time to spend money and vent my anger, but what kind of nature is it to kill you? Then is it a damn rebellion? My whole family is in Tokyo, and your eighty lives are not as important as my dog. Why should I kill you?
Since you are a military supervisor, you should supervise the army honestly and get some money from them. As long as it is not excessive, this is what you deserve, I will give orders in Tokyo honestly. You have to be responsible for my order being killed by those who have put it into practice.
Go to Xunyang and Xianyuan County with confidence. The Kong family still needs you to convince. After all, the Kong family has the most land. Only by persuading the Kong family can we get more land for the Xiang army.
Simplifying the wing army is a national policy formulated by Your Majesty himself and we cannot ignore it. If you do this well, you will be promoted and become rich. I will not have any chance of promotion within 20 or 30 years. Isn’t these things worth your life to take advantage of it?”
Li Chang poked his head out from behind the guard and said, "You really didn't tease me?"
Yun Zheng replied irritably: "Now, it is the top priority to place the wing army with all its might. If anyone has time to scare you, it is very easy to scare you. Just take you to the battlefield once. That is the real horror!"
Li Chang walked out from behind the guard and bowed: "Okay, let's agree first. If you go to the Kong family, you ignore you, so I will go to the Kong family. The fields in Liangshanpo are indeed fertile. I will find a way to get more for the Xiangjun. But can it..."
"Don't even think about it. If you don't sell the land there, you can get some money, and you can't even have a penny of the land there. Just stare at me. If I, Yun Zheng, occupy a lot of it, you can double the number of it. I will bear all the mistakes. If I don't do it, don't blame me for chopping my hands when I see you!"
The two guards' mouths were tilted. They discussed the matter of sharing the spoils in front of themselves. Aren't they afraid of reporting to the emperor? But if these two were willing to pay some money, they would certainly not speak much. Since the two of them said that, they would definitely get rich immediately...
Li Chang received Yun Zheng's guarantee and finally got a little energetic. He planned to go back and sleep and go back to Liangshanpo to supervise the army. This time he came back with the guise of seeing a doctor and could not stay for a long time.
As soon as Li Chang left, the monkey smiled and said, "Young Master, this guy is really brave!"
Yun Zheng slapped the monkey in the head and said angrily: "Can you gain some attention? Whose snake will crawl into the house in downtown Xunyang? Isn't it better to scatter some centipedes, crescents, etc. into it than throwing a snake?"
The monkey said with a bitter face: "The snake they threw out was still pulled out the poisonous fangs. Centipedes and crescents are not easy to find... But young master, if you don't like him, you'll kill him, why should you scare him?"
"You know, this is called a warning. If you don't train, this guy will pull us back when he goes to the battlefield in the future..."
After driving away the monkey Yun Zheng, he opened the file again and continued to approve it. After being beaten by himself, the three doctors in the Ministry of War finally became more regular. No matter who was stared at Yun Zheng's awkward eyes, they would not be calm. The scholar hated martial arts the most, but the chief in front of him was the one who liked martial arts the most. In order not to suffer the loss in front of him, he had to hold his tail and behave obediently. Therefore, the things Yun Zheng reviewed now are very normal documents, and there will definitely be no trivial matters to bother him.
Su Xun went to Xunyang, Yuner, Su Shi, and Su Zhe also went to Liangshanpo under the excuse of traveling thousands of miles, preparing to see on the spot whether Liangshanpo is suitable for military garrisons. After all, there is too much saline-alkali land in Shandong generation.
The sky is so cloudy today. Black clouds cover the sky above Tokyo, but there is no rain all day long. Logically, such weather will be much cooler, but without wind, the entire Tokyo city is as hot as a steamer.
This is God who pitied those farmers, giving them some free time. The wheat in the fields is at the tail of the harvest season. If it is hit by the rain, the wheat grains will fall into the fields and the harvest of the year will also fail.
The wing army and the imperial guards in Tokyo were almost empty, and all went to the surrounding farmland to help the people compete for food with God. This time, just like in the beginning of spring, the emperor took the lead in the farmland. The last time the emperor carried water, whether it was stupid or not, it won a very high reputation for the royal family. This summer, the emperor continued to do this without a teacher, and was also preparing to be a permanent example.
Yun Zheng and his wife were harvesting wheat in the field. God knew if they would be struck by lightning when they did this. There were more wheat on the ground than in their hands. It was even harder to pick it up with the wet nurse and her daughter behind...
Ge Qiuyan couldn't bend down at all with her belly straight, so she was playing with scissors and cutting wheat ears. Lu Qingying was also pregnant with a child, but she didn't have the good luck of Ge Qiuyan. As an imperial decree, she had to lead the way.
"In spring, we have to fight spring oxen, and worship Shennong. When there is no water, we still ask the Dragon King. Now we still have to harvest wheat. I am a marquis who is too much of a loss. The most nonsense is that we are not harvesting our own wheat, but from the imperial village. Why do you say that the emperor is trying to trouble people?"
Yun Zheng took off his coat, folded it and spread it on the ground, let Lu Qingying sit down and rest for a while, and gritted his teeth and continued to cut it barely. Acre of wheat must be cut today. This is Zhao Zhen's order to say that this is part of the new policy. Yun Zheng has never heard of this in Wang Anshi's reform.
Shi Zhongxin was very proud. His land was next to Yun Zheng, but this bastard was very relaxed. He imitated Yun Zheng holding a purple clay teapot and sitting on the ridge of the ground drinking tea, and supervising his wives all over the mountains to harvest wheat.
Lu Qingying looked at Shi Zhongxin’s hundreds of wives, and then at his big belly, and couldn’t even say a word.
Yun Zheng cut the ground and walked to the end. Shi Zhongxin followed Yun Zheng with a slight look on his face and said gossip: "Mr. Yun, haha, there are benefits to many wives. Your Majesty wants us to know the farmers and experience the sufferings of the people. This is right. The wives in the family are not doing serious business all day long, and they know that they can make plans for each other all day long. Now they finally have a place to use their skills. Haha, just a mu of land, one person pulls a handful of wheat and gets solved. I heard that the autumn sows will be in autumn after the summer harvest. Can you take care of two big belly women? "
Yun Zheng threw down the sickle angrily, looked at the clouds in the sky and said to the stone: "Your wheat has been harvested. My sister-in-law dare not offend me. I will give me a hundred concubines to use and I will return it to you later!"
Shi Zhongxin smiled and waved his hands to his concubines and shouted to his concubines: "Mr. Yun wants to lend it to you. This is a matter of increasing the face of the old Shi family. Why don't you come here quickly!"
A group of beakers rushed over. Although they didn't dare to do it, they looked at Yun Zheng's chest with their eyes full of fire, and laughed at Yun Zheng to help Yun Zheng cut a piece of wheat. One by one, they helped Yun Zheng cut off a piece of wheat as big as a palm, and the Yun family's wheat was finished.
Lu Qingying put on her husband in anger, and she was worthy of being the wife of the imperial decree. When her eyes turned, the women disappeared. Seeing that these women knew that they were still good, she changed her smile and said, "The Yun family has a new batch of beads. It is best to use as jewelry. I will send them to my sisters tomorrow."
The women knew what was going on, so they thanked Lu Qingying for the reward with a smile, and then returned to the Shi family's field.
Shi Zhongxin smiled and said to Yun Zheng: "Xiao Sixteen and Twenty-Seven are both very good, so don't you plan to stay and use it? Both your younger brother and sister-in-law are pregnant. It's a good opportunity. The jealous woman dare not ask for conditions at this time."
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Lu Qingying's apricot-core eyes and immediately ran away with a teapot.
Yun Zheng smashed his mouth and said to Lu Qingying: "You scared him away..."
