Farmer’s Blessed Girl

The capital is a certain distance from Qingzhou, so the information received will be slower and there will be some omissions.

The news of Wei Zhi's death was mostly read by the officials in Qingzhou first in the Dibao newspaper, and then they got the detailed news through relatives and friends in the capital.

Therefore, due to the lag in the news, it was already half a month after the dust had settled when the governor Guo knew that the local medical office had upgraded, with Qingzhou as the first case.

He still knew it from the official document sent from the capital.

Along with them came the official documents for the collection of new rice seeds and the promotion of new rice seeds.

Inspector Guo only wrote to the court not long ago about the new rice seeds. This time, they will promote it without verifying it?

Inspector Guo felt that something was wrong, and hurriedly called his confidant, "Is there a letter from the capital recently?"

"I was about to tell the lord. The house has received a lot of letters in the past two days, and some people have sent gifts. It's just that the lord went to the Longchi Wharf to inspect, so..."

"Bring it to me and see."

Master is busy to get the letter.

There are a lot of letters, and some of them also have gift slips attached. They are not very valuable, but they are also a kind of heartfelt, especially among them, there are two relatives who have not had much contact with each other.

The master carefully looked at the face of the governor of Guo, and felt that his face was too difficult to understand at the moment, and he didn't understand it for a while.

"Sir, is... what happened?"

Inspector Guo threw the letter on the table for him to read, "Something has happened."

Master hurriedly went to take a look, "Is it a good thing or a bad thing?"

Inspector Guo looked complicated, "It's a good thing."

It is indeed a good thing. Bai Shan has planted so many new rice seeds under his rule, and it is considered a bumper harvest. As the governor of Qingzhou, this achievement naturally has his share.

But... Bai Shan only reported this matter during the autumn harvest not long ago. The Beijing side knew the news earlier than he did, and they determined the feasibility of the new rice seeds so quickly. Before he had time to participate, he had already decided the national policy.

I always feel that this prefect is very embarrassed.

Inspector Guo sat on the chair and sighed after a long time, "It was wrong from the beginning."

"Ah?" The master raised his head in confusion, "Sir, what's wrong?"

Inspector Guo waved his hand, "I was wrong. At first, I was worried that the county magistrate would get in my way, so I focused on the county magistrate, but now it seems that Bai Shan is just pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger."

"It's only been two years. How much has Bai Shan done? Is Beihai County still the same as Beihai County?"

The master whispered: "But sir, everything the county magistrate does is a good thing, right? You have a share of the credit here..."

Inspector Guo shook his head, feeling a little uneasy, "I'm afraid Your Majesty doesn't think so, and I don't know if I can stay in this position."

The emperor really wanted to change a Qingzhou prefect at this time.

As soon as Zhou Man walked on the front foot, he remembered the incident on the back foot.

He and the old man Tang said: "Guo Cheng is okay to keep his success, but I am afraid it is not good to start a business. Now Bai Shan and Zhou Man are both in Qingzhou, they are not people who are comfortable with the status quo, and then leave Guo Cheng in Qingzhou. , I'm afraid it will become a roadblock."

But Old Master Tang was more steadfast, and after thinking about it, he shook his head, "Your Majesty, the governor of Guo has only been in office for two years, he has just become familiar with Qingzhou affairs, and the officials and people of Qingzhou have just gotten to know him. At this time, if he transfers people, I am afraid that he will be more difficult for Qingzhou. Not good, and who can guarantee that the new governor can adapt to Qingzhou better than Guo Cheng?"

"Huh?" The emperor looked at Old Master Tang in amazement. "Didn't Tang Qing always hate Guo Cheng? If I remember correctly, Tang Qing impeached him last time he was dismissed."

Old Master Tang: "...Your Majesty, the last time the minister was to enforce the law impartially, this time is also from the overall situation."

He said: "Although I don't like Guo Chengren very much, I have to admit that it is better for him to stay in Qingzhou than to leave at this time. His deployment ability is not weak. With him, the promotion of new rice and new wheat varieties in Qingzhou should be no problem;"

"He is also aware of current affairs. The princess and concubine are in Beihai County at this time. Bai Shan and Zhou Man have His Majesty and the Crown Prince as their backers. He will not confront Bai Shan head-on, and it is easier to compromise." Elder Tang said, "Send another person over there. , the other party may not be able to have this kind of bearing, after all, Bai Shan is over the top in many things."

Let's not talk about it from afar, it is not impossible to directly take over the salt field in Beihai County when it encounters a stronger governor.

And Bai Shan is just a county magistrate, so he really can only make concessions when the governor's office wants to take over the saltworks.

Not everyone is as aware of current affairs as Guo Cheng.

"However, it would be good if he could have less fame and fortune," Old Master Tang said: "I also know that if you chase after the clear, there will be no fish, but if it is too turbid, the fish in the water will also be suffocated to death. So Your Majesty can go to the secret. The letter warns Jan. or 2, let him not stretch his hand too long, and don't forget why he was dismissed from office last time."

The emperor could still listen to Jin's suggestion, he nodded after pondering for a while, "Okay, then use him for the time being. Originally, I wanted General Liu, who guards the Bohai Sea, to also serve as the prefect."

After thinking about it for a while, Old Master Tang shuddered, "No, no, General Liu is upright, but his methods are iron-blooded and his character is tough. Although Bai Shan looks gentle, his character is also very stubborn, so two people bump into each other. together..."

And Bai Shan always likes to do things big and deep, and often crosses the governor to make up his mind. If one is not good, then the needle will be pointed at Maimang...

The emperor turned his head and said to Gu Zhong: "Find out the records of the governor of Guo, and I will give him a reply. By the way, I will say some small things."

It is not difficult for the emperor to carry some private goods on the fold.

Gu Zhong understood in an instant, and quickly turned out a document wishing the emperor's well-being in Chongyang.

When the emperor opened it, he replied that everything was fine, and then began to talk "in his heart" with the governor of Guo.

If the booklet is sent, it will be sent back the same way. I believe that Governor Guo will receive it soon.

Like Governor Guo, who was almost replaced was the current magistrate of Luojiang County.

But unfortunately, he didn't have the intuition of Governor Guo, and he couldn't think of a deeper place.

There was a bumper harvest in Qili Village, and when the capital sent someone over to announce the decree to call Zhou Li back to the capital because of the new rice seeds, he was only excited.

"This is my achievement."

The master was also very happy, and he responded again and again.

Zhou Lizhong was transferred to the capital, and it didn't take long for him to be promoted from a junior official to the sixth-rank Sinong Temple chief, whose official rank was higher than his county magistrate.

To be honest, the magistrate's eyes were almost red with envy.

Then he has been doing his best to organize the autumn harvest of the villagers in Qili Village, drying them, weighing them, and then writing them down and sending them to the capital.

He began to anxiously wait for the award from the capital, and secretly prayed that he would be promoted this time.

But he waited from August to September, from the beginning of September to the end of September, and the winter wheat began to be planted, and there was still no news from the capital.

Good night
