Chapter 206 The Two Kings (Part 2)

Seeing that Wang Hongyi was walking back and reading some information, Zhang Youzhi wanted to retreat.

Suddenly, Wang Hongyi was furious, blushed, swept over, and said angrily: "Bastard!"

Some of the utensils placed on the table table, including paper, ink, pen and inkstone, were swept to the ground by Wang Hongyi.

The gold and silver utensils fell to the ground, making a jingling sound, very harsh.

After objects such as paper and ink fell to the ground, they rolled into balls, and the ink was poured on the ground, making it dirty.

Zhang Youzhi suddenly encountered the anger of thunder, and was so scared that he immediately crawled on the ground. After a certainty, he came back to his senses: "King?"

Wang Hongyi came quickly and calmly, saying to Zhang Youzhi: "It's not your business, get up quickly, don't get dyed ink."

At this time, several eunuchs crawled and knelt before the case to clean up.

The officials on duty at the Secretary-General's Pavilion in the distance were busy with their own affairs, and they were slightly lowered and dared not say much.

Seeing Zhang Youzhi get up, Wang Hongyi said, "It's a bastard! Such a major matter has not been implemented yet! What's the use of an official like this?"

"The order issued last year has not been completed yet. Wouldn't it be heartbreaking?!" Wang Hongyi said gritting his teeth.

The king's face turned pale, and Zhang Youzhi hurriedly said, "The king should calm down the anger of thunder. It is inappropriate to be angry. I wonder why the king got angry? Could it be that something big happened?"

"Hmph! A big thing is not, but it is not a small thing!" Wang Hongyi handed a document to Zhang Youzhi for a look.

"If I hadn't checked the information of the Thirteenth Division today, I still don't know that the rewards of the families who were sincerely issued last year have not been implemented yet."

Zhang Youzhi took the document, read it carefully, and understood it in his heart.

Last year, in the Battle of Jiangling, the Ming Dynasty was issued in August of the 16th year of Chuizheng. Zhang Fan directly granted Changting Marquis a title of 7,000 acres of land, 200 households, and was granted 40 mates of soldiers and armor.

Shi Qian was a meritorious in saving the lord, and was granted the title of Qingyu Bo, with 5,000 acres of land, 150 households, and 30 mates of soldiers and armor.

Both fiefs are set in their hometowns to show their grace.

It was fine to just give me some comfort, but I continued to reward it now, but the land and armored soldiers were not in place for a long time.

Zhang Fanzhi was fine. Although he died, the navy had his subordinates, so Juetian and the soldiers could easily arrange it.

Shi Qian was originally a commoner, but not long after he became a Shangguan. After his death, he has only reached 5,000 mu of land and only 1,000 mu of armor and soldiers.

The land problem must be properly resettled. The land in my hometown has its own owners, so it is natural that the government must relocate and transfer households, and it is only natural to spend some time.

But in August of the 16th year, it was October of the 17th year. The officials of the Ministry of Rites and Ministry of Revenue, who were in charge of this matter, have not been able to get things done for a long time, which is obviously careless.

Moreover, apart from the title, some ordinary families of the dead of war have not received the reward they deserve, so they can only comfort and slander.

Although many things have happened during this period, the battles between the south and the north are very busy, but the rewards have not been implemented for a long time. Those who know the inside story are the officials who are delayed in doing things and those who don’t know the inside story think it is Wang Hongyi, the monarch who is heartless and untrustworthy!

Whether it is public or private, Wang Hongyi cannot help but get angry about it.

Zhang Youzhi put down the document and said, "This matter must be remedied. You just need to send someone to issue a reward immediately and comfort it. It will probably not have any adverse effects."

"This is just one of them." Wang Hongyi said with a gloomy face: "Even this matter can be mistaken. It seems that some people have lived too comfortably over the past few years and have forgotten to do their best."

"The meritorious ministers worked hard to conquer the city, but Gu could not even fulfill their promises to them as scheduled. This really made Gu feel ashamed!"

Speaking of this, Wang Hongyi became angry again and sniffed: "Grind the ink for Gu, and Gu immediately issued an order to remove these officials!"

Even at this time, Wang Hongyi still retained some Qingming Festival and did not have murderous intentions.

"No!" The eunuch responded quickly when he heard this.

At this time, the eunuch had cleaned the inside, so he quickly put the table in the table, grindled ink for Wang Hongyi, and also laid a piece of decree silk on the table.

Wang Hongyi walked over and picked up his pen and wrote a decree to rub these officials to the end.

"The king calmed down. This was a delay. But from last year to now, there were great wars, counting household registrations, and accepting surrenders, and every matter was a major event." At this time, Zhang Youzhi bowed and said: "There is a delay, but they had worked hard before. I would like to calm down and treat it with lenient means."

Wang Hongyi was stunned, put down his pen again, thought for a while, and sighed: "Forget it, these officials will scold them and be fined for three months!"

After all, this matter was also a matter of busy unifying Jingzhou some time ago and pacifying Jiaozhou, and at the same time ignored the past.

"Zhang Qing, there is a reward from Shi Qian's family here. I heard that there are only mother and wife in the family?" Wang Hongyi felt a little moved when he thought of Shi Qian's generous death.

This man died by saving the lord, not only for fighting, but also for him.

Zhang Youzhi thought about it and said, "I remember, I have received news that when Lord Shi passed away, there were indeed only my mother and wife in the family, but his wife was already pregnant with a child. Well, she gave birth to a son later. To count the days, she should be born almost one year old."

"It's a post-beard boy!" Wang Hongyi had an idea when he heard this.

"Zhang Qing, you are responsible for this matter. Send someone to inquire about the situation in Shi Qing's family. If a baby boy is born, you will directly inherit Qing Yu Bo's title. You must not let the meritorious ministers be neglected after death!"

"If it's a full moon, just add some rewards from the palace. By the way, since they are all women, you can use female officials to send envoys!" Wang Hongyi thought for a while and said.

"I obey the order." Zhang Youzhi said hurriedly, feeling secretly in his heart, bowing to it.

Qingyu Town. Shifu

In fact, it is no wonder that Qingyu Town has only 30,000 acres in total, and it is really difficult to allocate 5,000 acres to Shifu at once.

The Shi Mansion itself is several large houses in the town. They were given by the government and connected together, with an area of ​​ten acres. According to the system, the Earl's specifications are composed of the Five Courtyards, and stone lions can be used at the door.

But now, the Shi family was originally a poor family and had no spare wealth. They had to get the king's reward of 5,000 taels of silver last time. Although the five thousand taels are too much, they will use up all the portals to build.

This time the child was one year old, and in the hall, there was a manager who was entertaining a group of guests who came to congratulate him.

There are three upper rooms in the back house. For the sake of decentness, it is not bad. There are a few new girls in a room with a bed. Shi’s mother sat on it, looking lovingly at the child who was held in her arms by Shi’s wife.

There was a smile on his face, but deep in his eyes, there was a deep sadness.

This child is one year old and looks very much like his father!

Poor Qian'er went there early because she was so young. Alas...

Looking at the child in his arms, Shi's wife suppressed her sadness, smiled, and said to Shi's mother: "Mother, the guests are probably here. Even if we are women and have no one at home, we must take him out."

"Well, yes, everyone comes here is all guests, so you can't neglect the guests!" Mrs. Shi nodded and walked out with the help of the maid.

A invited nurse also took the young master from his wife and walked out.

After a while, the family of three walked from behind to front surrounded by maids and servants.

Seeing the old lady and the young master coming over, the guests who came to congratulate each other stood up and said auspicious words to the two of them.

As the head of the family, the old lady could only speak for herself at this time.

But how many people can an old woman in the boudoir know?

The Shi family is barely considered a study family, but they are not a big family. This behavior is naturally misleading. Some of the guests who came here secretly despise them.

Shi's wife is a smart man. Seeing this, she couldn't help but feel uneasy on her face.

"Mother, I just heard the news from the servants. The patriarch came here in person later. I am afraid that the year-round banquet today will be... "In my spare time, Shi's wife walked to Shi's mother and whispered in a low voice.

When Shi's mother heard this, she looked worried.

When Shi Qian was alive, even though he had not been an official at that time, he had men in his family to support him, and the patriarch was quite polite to the Shi family.

After Shi Qian passed away, there were no men in the family. Even though there were a large number of rewards, there were only two women and one child in charge of the family.

There are no men at home, and relatives and servants want to encroach on property. What should I do?

Some time ago, even the clan leader revealed these meanings. It seems that the land and comfort provided by the King of Chu have already made them covetous.

Shi’s wife thought for a while and said, “Mother, but I heard that the local county magistrate was the patriarch who said that we two widows could not bear such a big family business. It would be better to hand over the Jueland to the clan’s steward first and wait for the child to grow up and hand it back. Therefore, the four thousand acres were delayed!”

"Also, although we are given a thousand acres of land now, when we receive rent, the villages always delay not giving it. Even if we give it, the grain we give is less than half."

The old lady thought for a moment and said coldly: "Hmph, this is the family business that my son has been fighting for his life. Even if he fights his life, they are not allowed to take it."

The old lady said again: "You and I have both official duties and decrees, but I am afraid that they will not be able to take them. It really won't work. Let's complain to the king!"

Shi’s wife had to respond: “Yes!”

What the old lady didn't know was that Shi's wife had more worries than her.

This worry comes from my parents' home.

My uncle and aunt even revealed a few days ago that they wanted to intervene, meaning that they would take care of the family business on behalf of their nephew and return it to their nephew when they become adults.

This made Shi Wife feel sad and worried.

Now the child is still young and is still early to adulthood. Whether it is handed over to the tribe or to the uncle, not to mention that he has been embezzled within the past ten years, if the child dies of illness, no one will know who the land will belong to.
