back to the field

Chapter 110 Stew

At the beginning of spring, there was a spring famine in the place where there was a flood.Due to the aftermath of the flood, many people's late rice harvests were not good, and the food was not available for harvest in summer, so famine occurred.

The government also opened charity warehouses for disaster relief and loaned rice, which stabilized the people who had no food left at home.

Tang Sixian also deeply realized that this time is different from the era when even if there is a natural disaster in the future, there will be support from all directions, and there is no need to worry about lack of supplies. If she doesn't stock up on food, when there is a more serious natural disaster, she may starve die.

Fortunately, her income depends entirely on farming. She sells a small part of the rice in the field to hide it, and puts the rest in the granary, and puts it into the space when Qin Zhen is not paying attention.

Perhaps God thought her life was too stable. Not long after the beginning of spring, Tang Sixian's colleagues suddenly sent her a gossip, saying that during the official assessment at the end of the year last year, someone reported that she was corrupt and broke the law. Also implicated.

Because the matter was related to Rongce, Zhizhou didn't dare to make decisions without authorization, so he reported it to the imperial court. Now the imperial court will quietly send people down to investigate!Fortunately, because Rong Ce was involved, there were many people who paid attention to this matter, so someone broke the news to her and asked her to prepare early.

"Am I corrupt and broke the law?" Tang Sixian didn't panic at all, carefully recalling the things he had done in violation of laws and regulations, it seemed that there were not many.

If it was about Zheng Jinglun, it should have something to do with Yue Xuan, there is no reason to involve Rong Ce.In the case of Gao Zhezheng, the evidence is conclusive and there is no perversion of the law.As for the other things, it has nothing to do with Rong Ce.

"Soldiers come to block, water comes to cover it!" Tang Sixian thought about it.

People from the imperial court came very quickly. Tang Sixian only found out after being sent for questioning. It turned out that it was Xie Yaoting who reported that she bought land in the place where she worked, and raised fish around the lake, and these fish and shrimps were very expensive. Buying it with her to eat, isn't that a bribe?It's tantamount to stealing in disguise.

As for breaking the law, it is said that she used Rong Ce's power to run amok in the village, and everyone dared not speak out.

Tang Sixian: "..."

This Xie Yaoting has cerebral palsy. She had already forgotten his existence. After all, he had been taught a lesson. It's fine if he didn't dare to appear in front of the Qin family again. He didn't expect him to take the initiative to show his presence!

Downs sat upright enviously. Ten acres of her lands were bought by her before she was hired, and so was the fish pond.Later, she cooperated with Liang Beiwang to raise fish, and Liang Beiwang also owned the fish pond in name, and he just bought fish feed from her.

As for the [-] mu of land in the back, and the poyang lake farm, she had already kept one hand and bought it in Tang's name.

Xie Yaoting only knew that Tang Sixian was taking care of it, and only heard that it was her fish, so he thought she took advantage of her position to buy it.

So when he learned that those were all lands and breeding farms under the name of Concubine Tang, he hastily changed his words, saying that Tang Sixian used slanderous names to coerce households to avoid taxes.

Tang Si enviously said: "I only have one household registration, but I just changed my name. How can I get a fake name to coerce my household?"

If she obtains other household registrations in Qin Zhen's name or Tang Qingman's name, it will be considered a fraudulent name.But Tang Concubine and her were not on the same household registration, and Tang Concubine was a real person, so it was not considered a false name at all.

Someone wanted to intimidate Tang Concubine to make her betray Tang Sixian, she said without changing her face: "That's my field, my fishing ground, but I usually open a shop in the county and have no time to go to Raozhou, so I let it go." My nephew will take care of it for me. Besides, the fish and shrimp are a bit more expensive, but they are delicious, and they are worth the price!"

She has lived to this age and has never experienced any hardships. Will she be intimidated by a small threat?joke!

So the investigation results of this matter came out. Tang Sixian had at most a small fault, and there was no such thing as corruption and perverting the law.

On the contrary, when they investigated these things, they found that Tang Sixian had a good reputation in the village, especially she taught people to raise fish in the rice fields, and the harvest was better than expected. The fish were raised for more than half a year and sold. In the end, it can increase a small amount of income for the people.

He also said that Tang Sixian was taught by Si Nong Temple.

The official of Sinong Temple: "..."

They had indeed received Tang Sixian's documents, but they seemed to have just copied some agricultural documents for her.After half a year, even they themselves forgot what they copied.

Could it be that when a blind cat meets a dead mouse, it really becomes a thing?

The official of Sinong Temple was stunned.However, it is a good thing to say this. In order to express myself, whenever someone asks, the officials who participated in the excerpt of the agricultural book will say: "Yes, we taught him... These methods are from "Wang's Agricultural Book"……"

……

Since Tang Sixian didn't have the problem of corrupting the law or taking advantage of others, then Rong Ce was purely pushed by Xie Yaoting.And according to what Tang Sixian said, Xie Yaoting took revenge on Qin Zhen because he failed to take Qin Zhen as his concubine.

People from the village flocked to her and told her frankly that in order to force the Qin family to give Qin Zhen to him as a concubine, Xie Yaoting bribed some people to spread rumors about Qin Zhen and ruin her reputation.If Tang Sixian hadn't been afraid of gossip and insisted on marrying her, Qin Zhen would have died long ago.

It's not that Tang Sixian's reputation in the village has improved, but that these people are in awe and dare not talk nonsense.Besides, everyone praises Downs, if they act too independently, life in the village will be difficult in the future.

Xie Yaoting was scared, and when he was questioned in Zhizhou, he also said honestly: "I admit that I am jealous of Tang Sixian..."

Tang Sixian was promoted to the third level in two years. May I ask which official who has struggled at the bottom for several years but has not been promoted for a long time is not jealous?They may flatter her on the surface, but how jealous of her is in their hearts, who knows?

What's more, he claims that he has read the books of sages and passed the imperial examinations, but because of bad luck, he has never met such nobles as Rong Ce and Yue Xuan, so that he spent several years in the selection process. , very down and out.

After finally getting a job, he turned out to be a cold-hearted professor of county studies that no one else wanted to do!

And what about Tang Sixian?He was only awarded the rank of eighth-rank official by accusing the thieves of meritorious service; later, he participated in the arrest of remnants and got another meritorious service; last year, he was appreciated by the court just because he helped save the people, and was promoted to rank seven.

As if she had the support of a noble person, she seemed to be able to get promoted without paying anything.There is a beautiful wife by his side, and the life is so good that it makes people jealous, and the jealousy makes people crazy.

So when he heard someone mention Tang Sixian's "corruption and breaking the law", he thought of reporting Tang Sixian.In order to get the court's attention, and to prevent Rong Ce from helping to suppress the matter, he dragged Rong Ce to convey it directly to the court.

In the end, who would have expected that all Tang Sixian's weaknesses he knew were fake? !

"Who told you?" Zhizhou asked.

"They just mentioned in the chat that there is a person I don't know, but I do recognize a Tang family member. Zhizhou, I was misled, and I was also fascinated by ghosts for a while!" Xie Yaoting said.

Zhizhou's head hurts, why is this matter related to the Tang family?

Recently, there have been a lot of disturbances in the Tang family. After all, some matters are internal affairs of the Tang family, and they cannot intervene.But this matter involved slandering the imperial court officials, the huge signboard of the Tang family, and even the emperor praised them as a "family of loyalty and filial piety" who were "respected by the government" and "filial piety never fades".Faced with this matter, how should he deal with it?

So Tang Yun, who was exhausted with family affairs, was found by Zhizhou and told him that the Tang family had another trouble, and Tang Yun almost didn't pass out.

After all, it is the patriarch who has experienced a lot of ups and downs. He stabilized his mind, learned the details, and then bowed to the governor: "Please let the officials go back and investigate this matter first. After finding out which unfilial son and grandson caused the trouble, Then take him to plead guilty."

"Well, you go, this matter must not only be explained to Tang Chengzhi, but also to the court." Zhizhou's eyes were heavy, he felt that the Tang family's reputation would be ruined if it went on like this.Maybe something is going to happen.

As for Xie Yaoting, Zhizhou thinks that he is narrow-minded and good at telling stories, so he is not suitable to be a teacher.The imperial court transferred him from the county school to Jizhou to work as a granary supervisor.

-

"What? The villagers in Zhenqian Village didn't say anything bad about Tang Sixian? Didn't Tang Siyue tell me that Tang Sixian's behavior in the village is still unpopular? As long as the government interrogates them, they will just say As long as those fields and fish ponds are envied by Tang Si, why didn't they say so?"

Tang Sihai couldn't understand, he grabbed his hair and the crown was crooked.

Is he out of touch with Zhenqian Village?Why did the villagers of Zhenqian Village speak up for Tang Sixian?

"I told you a long time ago that Tang Siyue is untrustworthy. Ever since you were imprisoned by the Tang family—" Xue Hao said, noticing Tang Sihai's expression, he changed his words, "Since you left the Tang family, we are not a family with him." How could he take orders from you again?"

"He's courting death!"

Xue Hao watched the play: "I heard that Tang Sixian taught some methods of raising fish in rice fields to increase the fertility of the land, and the Tang family's farm began to imitate it. And relying on those fish, the people in the farm can have more rations. Tang Siyue's bastard is that whoever gives him food, he will look at the face of the person, just like a wall."

"What sarcastic words are you talking about? If Tang Sixian settles accounts with me, you will definitely not be able to escape. Don't forget that your sister and brother-in-law are no longer in Raozhou, and no one can protect you!" Tang Sihai was dissatisfied.

If it hadn't been for Xue Hao being left behind by Xue Feng and Liang Ke, without any protection, he was afraid that his former enemies would take revenge on him, so how could he think of a way to instigate others to attack Tang Sixian first!

Tang Sihai didn't expect that Tang Siyue would betray him and give him wrong information. Fortunately, he also gave Tang Siyue a lot of benefits and bought him off.

He slowly figured it out, Tang Siyue probably did it on purpose, so that he and Tang Sixian would fight and bite each other, and it would be best for both sides to suffer!

Speaking of many things in the past, without Tang Siyue fanning the flames, how could he do it!

"We didn't tell Xie Yaoting directly. He was narrow-minded and provoked Tang Sixian before he found out the facts. How could Tang Sixian blame us!" Xue Hao was confident.

They have been planning in secret for so long, just to find out who Tang Sixian's enemies are, so that they can kill people with a knife.Except that Tang Siyue gave them false information, every link was actually well designed.

Fortunately, they also learned from Tang Sixian and stayed behind, and did not directly participate in this matter. As long as Tang Sixian dares to do something to them, they will have evidence of her bullying!

But they probably didn't expect that Tang Sixian was busy resigning right now and had no time to talk to them.

-

Although the imperial court has investigated and found out that Tang Sixian did not violate the imperial court's regulations that officials are not allowed to buy land or do business in the place where they work, but she has a temperament that cannot be wronged, so she directly handed in the letter of resignation.

Zhizhou took a look and advised her: I know you have been wronged, but you are only 20 years old, and you still have a great youth, and your starting point is higher than others, because you resigned because of a wronged, young and energetic, this is too impulsive.

Tang Si enviously said: "But after all, I bought land property before I became an official. In order to support my family, I can't just sell the land property and dissipate all the family wealth, right? So I have to resign."

Zhizhou said: "The imperial court has already known what is going on, and it will not hold you accountable for this matter. There is no need to do this. Besides, you have done a good job in the tea farm, and the number has never been wrong. It is really rare!"

The resignation letter was withheld by Zhizhou.

Tang Sixian sighed to Qin Zhen after returning home: "Being an official hinders me from getting rich!"

And there's the risk of revealing your identity.It would be great if she could keep the military rank officer on her body without being dispatched. A military rank officer from the seventh rank is enough for her for a lifetime.

"Don't let anyone hear your words."

For many people, Tang Sixian is a typical example of "being in the midst of blessings but not knowing the blessings". He has a bright future at a young age, and he doesn't even want to be an official. Isn't this because his brain is broken?

Tang Sixian doesn't seem to have paid anything, but to Qin Zhen, she would rather Tang Sixian study hard for ten years in a cold window and only get a small official position, than risk her life in exchange for an honorary status.

"A person is not happy for a thousand days, and a flower is not red for a hundred days. If you don't count early, it will be nothing later. Some things have to be planned early in order to avoid risks. Greed for power, fame and fortune, and you may lose yourself here in the end, then the gain outweighs the loss " Downs said enviously.

"It's rare to be sober, and it's rare to be confused." Qin Zhen smiled slightly.

-

The Tang family's affairs continued to turmoil for a while, especially Tang Yun decided not to give Tang Tai a chance.Originally, he thought that Tang Tai was the previous parent. In order to keep a good reputation for each other, he didn't drive Tang Tai out of the Tang family, and let Tang Tai enjoy his old age in the Tang family. The other party should be satisfied.

Unexpectedly, this time Tang Sihai and Xue Hao made these incidents again, and they were arrogant and domineering because they were no longer members of the Tang family.

Some members of the Tang family were already dissatisfied with them. Tang Yun decided to pursue Tang Tai and report the things he did that harmed the interests of the Tang family.

This matter has been going on for a long time, and the prestige of the Tang family has always been high, and there are officials in the court who have some relationship with the Tang family and the academy. Some people in the court are already worried that they will form a force that can threaten the court in the future.

The new emperor rewarded the Tang family as usual, but in the face of all kinds of problems caused by the Tang family, those unfilial sons and grandchildren's practices really damaged the reputation of the Tang family, and he was also shaken.

The voice of letting the Tang family split also slowly spread.

The new emperor asked Rong Xiang: "Can the Tang family really threaten the court?"

Rong Xiang said: "Officials, please take a look. These are the officials of the Tang family who have always been officials in the court, as well as those who have been enlightened, those who have been selected as Jinshi, and the imperial officials who are studying in the Tang family's academy. At a glance In the past, almost all of them have a relationship with the Tang family. One day, the Tang family's candidates will be named, and the selected people will be dispatched, and then [-]% of the officials in the court will come from the Tang family... Separation of families is the general trend."

Xin Huangguang couldn't sit still when he thought of that scene, so he said to the officials in the court: "The Tang family has a great reputation, and it would be a pity if these unfilial descendants ruined their reputation. Let's break up!"

He asked Tang Cai, who was an official in the court, to return to his hometown to handle the affairs of the Tang family, and then ordered a few officials, together with the magistrate of Raozhou, to go to the Tang family to help with the separation of the family.

This was an order to divide the family, and Tang Yun had to follow the order.

He didn't expect that the Tang family had been gone for hundreds of years, and finally fell apart under his hands.Although he felt a little sad, but in order to make up for him, the emperor added a rank to his official position, so he naturally couldn't say anything more.

The Tang family's property division is divided according to each farm, but it is still divided into more than 20 side branches according to blood relationship.

Tang Caisheng's family was the only one left, so he allocated more than 50 mu of land. Because of Tang Yun's selfishness, his land was in Zhenqian Village.

As for those side branches that are close to Tang Tai, they are separated farther away, and some of them have been assigned to Jiangzhou.

Tang Sihai and the others not only failed to participate in the separation of the family, but also lost some money because Tang Tai used the Tang family to buy private property when Tang Tai was held accountable and did not separate the family.

It made it even more difficult for him and Xue Hao. The people they had oppressed knew that the Tang family was separated, and after they had no one to back them up, they gathered to take revenge on them.The Xue family was almost not burned down.Xue Hao simply hid outside, not daring to go home.

-

On the day the Tang family separated, Concubine Tang quietly went back to Jianshanli, and when she heard the crying from the Tang family's house, she smiled unkindly.

Smiling and laughing, she shed two lines of tears.

After watching the excitement, when she was about to leave, Tang Yun and Tang Caisheng came out from the alley, obviously talking about some secret, and then met her.

Both parties were stunned for a moment, Tang Yu didn't say anything, nodded, turned sideways and left.

Tang Yun gave her a long bow, and said: "The Tang family is sorry for you, and did not fulfill their duty to protect you as a member of the clan. I am here to apologize to you."

Concubine Tang reached out to pick off a hibiscus flower, rubbed it, and said: "The flower is gone, but the pedicle is still there, and the wound on the pedicle is still there. It's not like I'm sorry and it didn't exist."

Tang Yun said: "But the flowers will grow again."

Concubine Tang smiled slightly: "Then you just need to take good care of the other flowers. Since the flowers have left the roots, branches and leaves, I don't want you to worry about them anymore."

Tang Yun was silent.

Tang Caisheng thought for a while, and chased after him: "Auntie, there is something I want to talk to you about."

"Your waist is straight after the separation?" Tang Concubine looked at him and found that he was indeed a little more imposing than before the separation.

Tang Caisheng said: "The family has been separated, and the family has no way to interfere with my decision. I want Sixian to return to the family tree. You can ask him if he is willing."

Since the family has been separated as a side branch, the family tree must be created separately.Before the family was separated, it was not his turn to make decisions on the genealogy, but since he was the head of the side branch, he naturally had the right to do so.

Concubine Tang looked at him thoughtfully, but didn't say whether she would agree to help.

A few days later, Tang Sixian asked someone to bring Tang Caisheng a reply, saying: "There is no need for Hui people, but if my uncle wants to compile the genealogy, please also write down the names of the deceased father, sister, and Tang Sixian."

Tang Caisheng was puzzled, isn't Tang Sixian the same as Tang Sixian?She didn't want to go back to the family, but she wanted their father and son's names to appear on the genealogy... And the father and son were fine, so what's wrong with Tang Qingman?

He had never seen anyone add a woman's name to a family tree.

Although he was puzzled, he thought about it for a long time, and finally agreed,——There is no precedent, so why not just set this precedent?

So when he ordered people to build the genealogy of the line that started from his grandfather, he added Tang Caihou's name and life equality to his brother's place.Of course, the page between Tang Qingman and Tang Sixian had nothing but names.

Tang Sixian took this copy of the genealogy of the side branch to Xiange Mountain to find Tang Qingman.

Xiange Mountain, which was once a place of great incense, seems to be more lively after the flood.Many people who have taken refuge here will give priority to them when doing things, and they are also amazed by the pool at the bottom of the mountain.

——Ponds can be seen everywhere in Xiange Mountain, but due to floods, when the water level rose, there was no pond where Xiaolu was raised, but after the flood receded, many fish and turtles gathered in the pond, and even Xiaolu was still there Since then, the common people call it "Liuxian Pond".

Tang Sixian: "..."

Can her fish pond be renamed "Liuxian Pond", and the fish farm in Poyang Lake be renamed "Liuxian Lake"?

Anyway, for things that have something to do with unscience, the common people will rely on metaphysics.Tang Sixian didn't spoil the fun, but threw another spring bead into it.

"Wow, they are fighting! Xiaolu hit them!" Some children saw the scene in the pool and shouted one after another.

Everyone saw that the giant sand turtle "Little Green" also showed its ferocious fighting talent at this time. Wherever it passed, all the turtles and fish dared not approach it.

"Hey, I've become a little overlord, if I didn't donate you, it would be great to kill the stew!" Tang Sixian muttered.

"What kind of soup?" Tang Qingman asked when he heard Tang Sixian muttering when he came out.

"Green King Eight Soup."

Tang Qingman: "..."

Glaring at her, "Why are you here today?"

Tang Sixian handed out the genealogy with a grin, and said, "I said, I won't let your names disappear from this world."

Tang Qingman can read quite a lot now, not to mention, she will never fail to recognize her own name.

She froze for a moment, then her eyes turned red.

Was she fulfilling her father's last wish? ...though she didn't do it.

"Sister, don't cry!"

"Pindao is weeping with joy." Tang Qingman said.

Tang Sixian: "Then sister, you can watch it slowly. I'll go first, and I'll come to see you another day."

Downs left enviously.

Tang Qingman looked at this brand-new manuscript genealogy, knowing that it was not the original, but still took a pen and wrote on it: Tang Sixian.

-

"Tsk, I haven't had soft-shelled turtle soup for a long time, why don't you go back and discuss it with the Taoist priest and sell me a soft-shelled turtle!"

Farming aquatic products, but there are no soft-shelled turtles in the aquatic products, what a mistake!

Downs returned home muttering enviously.

Before entering the door, she smelled the aroma of old fire soup.

"My lady, what kind of soup did you cook?" She pushed open the door.

“Lotus root, pork bone and soybean soup.”

With the soup stewed by Qin Zhen in front of him, Tang Sixian ignored any soft-shelled turtle soup.

Does she care about soup?All she cared about was the soup cook.

The author has something to say: From the early code to this point, because the number of words is a bit too much, it is considered two in one.

It's officially over.

-

Extra episodes exist independently of the main text, and there may be some conflicts with the main text, so you can just watch it as an independent unit.

There is a childbirth plot (although it is not the way of pregnancy and childbirth in October), so I will explain it here, and readers who don’t want to read it, please don’t get it wrong.
