Chapter 143 Harvest
Hearing this sentence, Magistrate Zhao didn't have any rebuttal words. He sat on the ground directly, with a frightened expression on his face, his hands and feet were cold, and his heart was beating uncontrollably.

He knew that his career as an official was completely over.

"A Ying, the county magistrate of Zhao intends to hide the food, and he will punish the [-]th board and drag him into prison to hear it!"

County Magistrate Zhao sat slumped on the ground, and was carried away by A Ying and a guard beside him.

Bai Susu put a plate of freshly made potato tarts in front of him, and sat beside him, with shallow eyes, "Is everything done?"

"Six of the eight officials participated in this matter. I'm afraid I will write a letter to the emperor to change a new batch of officials in Northwest City."

"Then change it." Bai Susu thought for a while, "Next year will be the spring festival every three years, and then we can conduct a thorough investigation and clean up those corrupt officials."

"It's not that easy." Zhou Ximing showed a wry smile, "The emperor is very afraid of me, even when he came to the northwest, he still didn't forget to send someone to monitor my every move."

He looked to a certain corner, and said in a low voice, "I'm afraid, the emperor already knows everything I've done here."

Bai Susu had also seen the emperor's eccentricity before, she chuckled lightly, pulled Zhou Ximing's sleeve, her eyes were smiling, "Then what do you think the emperor wants to do next?"

"I'm afraid they sent my younger brother, the Third Emperor, to take the prestige I established in the northwest."

Zhou Ximing has fought with the emperor for many years, so he knows what the emperor thinks very well, even if he doesn't need to deliberately investigate, he can still get some general information.

He looked at Bai Susu, "When the third prince comes over, the crops will probably be ready to harvest. When he comes over, you and I will probably go back, and the rest of the mess can just be handed over to him. "

The crops planted this time are not ordinary ones, and it is not an easy task to make people in other places accept these things.

How to popularize these crops and hand them over to the remaining people for planting the soil, as well as the selection of new officials in the northwest region, and how to deal with the current officials can all be handed over to the third prince.

These things, if they are handled a little bit wrong, they will be missed by a tiny bit.

As for whether the third prince can earn his reputation, it depends on how he does it himself.Bai Susu also understood the meaning of Zhou Ximing's words, her eyes slightly bent.

Selecting newly appointed officials in Northwest China is a thankless job. Now it is a time of famine here, and no officials are willing to come here to serve.

Even if someone came over, it would probably be unworthy of virtue, and the third prince would be responsible for everything he did. Naturally, he would have to bear the reputation of good or bad.

Generally speaking, the third prince is a difficult problem no matter whether he offends the officials or the common people.

For the rest of the time, Zhou Ximing had nothing to do, so he and Bai Susu studied the recipes of potatoes and sweet potatoes, and then compiled a book.

Half a month later, Bai Susu deliberately wore a short brown shirt, a hat on his head, and a hoe in his hand, and looked at Zhou Ximing, "Let's go, we can see the harvest today." gone."

After coming out of the mansion and walking all the way to the piece of land she planted, Bai Susu dug the hoe in her hand into the ground, digging out a lot of potatoes, lying on the ground one by one, looking very gratifying.

Bai Susu only dug half an acre of land, and the guards behind him had already picked up seven or eight baskets of potatoes, and they looked very gratifying on the sidelines.

The other common people also took hoes to dig out the things that had been planted for more than a month in their own fields. The things that could be called lumps of soil were dug out, and people couldn't help showing their faces. A look of joy.

Bai Susu dug an acre of potatoes, but the hoe in her hand was taken away by the guards beside her, and they dug out the remaining dozens of acres of land one after another, the effect was much better than her own.

One of the women saw that all the baskets in her home were used up, and the things in the field were not yet filled, and she laughed very happily.They haven't seen such a good harvest for a long time.

For the whole day, these people were busy harvesting the crops. Bai Susu told them how to store potatoes and sweet potatoes, so that they would not germinate and become inedible.

After telling this, just as she was about to go back, A Ying hurried over, "Your Highness, Miss Bai, the Third Prince is here, and he is waiting for you at the gate of the mansion, saying that he has something important to discuss."

Bai Susu and Zhou Ximing looked at each other, and they both understood what was going on behind them.

Returning to the gate of the mansion from here, the third prince walked over with a smile and looked at Zhou Ximing, "Brother Huang, it's been a long time."

"Yeah." Zhou Ximing replied coldly, "The third brother is not at home, thinking about his mistakes behind closed doors, why did he come to this northwest city?"

"Father is afraid that the emperor will not be able to manage the northwest region, so he specially ordered me to come over and take over the mess in the northwest city, so that the emperor can return to the capital as soon as possible." The third prince revealed a look of pride in his eyes, and said without haste.

If one month ago, some people would believe that Northwest City was a mess.But to say such a thing in the current situation really makes people feel unjust.

Standing behind Zhou Ximing and Bai Susu, Ah Ying looked at the third prince with an unfriendly expression and displeasure in her heart.They worked so hard day and night to manage the Northwest City, and they just handed over their hands and gave it away as a wedding dress for the third prince?

"What did the father say?" Zhou Ximing looked at the third prince, "Do you have a letter?"

"Of course there are." The third prince handed the letter he had prepared earlier to Zhou Ximing, with a soft voice, "Brother Huang will know it after reading it."

After reading the letter, Zhou Ximing didn't say much. It basically meant to hand over all the affairs of the Northwest City to the third prince, and let him set off and come back immediately.

Sure enough, it was not as he expected.

He handed the letter to the third prince, "I will leave the matter of the Northwest City to the third prince, and I will take people away tomorrow."

The third prince originally thought that there would be some tugging, but he didn't expect Zhou Ximing to leave so happily.There was a look of satisfaction in his eyes, and there was arrogance in his tone, "Then I won't give it away."

He turned around and left from here, going to his mansion.

Bai Susu stood by Zhou Ximing's side, watched the third prince leave, then took Zhou Ximing's hand and walked into the yard, and said in a low voice: "He hasn't understood the specific situation here, so he is so sure that he can handle it well." matter?"
