Tai Jia

Sun Xiong still lowered his head, his eyes were turbulent.

This He Xihua's original name was He Xiyao, and the He family didn't know how rampant it was to let him have the same name as the emperor Xuanyuan Yao who was still the prince at that time.After Yushitai heard about it, he went up to impeach him, but the first emperor just smiled when he heard it, and then forced the crown prince to personally name He Jiaerlang.There is no other reason, the prince is the direct son of the Yuan empress, and after the death of the Yuan empress, he made Concubine He Gui, who was the most favored of the six palaces, as the empress.The favored nephew and the unfavored son, which is more important, you can tell at the first sight.It's a pity that the descendants of the first emperor withered, leaving only the crown prince as a single seedling, with no choice.

After the death of the first emperor, the five-year-old crown prince ascended the throne. The queen mother He listened to the government behind the curtain. Errands, although the prison in the palace is only from the third rank, but the emperor's food, clothing, housing and transportation are all in his hands, so the emperor started his puppet career surrounded by Zhuhe, and survived for six or seven years.

In a blink of an eye, the emperor was thirteen or fourteen years old, and he could discuss marriage, and in the next year he could be in charge of the government.Unexpectedly, the queen dowager, who was listening behind the curtain, first asked the little emperor to marry He's daughter, but after being rejected, she did not know what kind of voodoo, but pretended to be a celestial phenomenon, and asked the emperor to welcome He Xihua, the son of He Xihua, as the male queen.Fortunately, He Xihua himself had no such intentions, and at the age of 13, he passed the prodigy test and begged to be released, so the Queen Mother gave up on it.

Looking at him now, he can be said to be handsome and handsome, and his face is as beautiful as Shunhua. He is worthy of the feminine words specially chosen by the little emperor at that time.

"Forget it, seeing how dusty you have been all the way, go down first to have a rest, and then come back tomorrow." Seeing that his expression was normal, He Xihua lowered his head again and continued to read the official documents.

When Sun Xiong stepped back, he raised his eyes slightly, and could only see He Xihua's frowning and pale complexion.

Coincidentally, so coincidentally.

On the second day, Sun Xiong got up early as instructed, took a bowl of porridge and a white steamed bun, and went to the county government office to order.This county government office can be regarded as clean and frugal, except for Liu Cao and the government servants, there are not many subordinate officials, and He Xihua doesn't even have a master, so it's no wonder that he has to issue a notice to ask for a swordsman.

"The magistrate of the county is deciding the case in the hall and has no time to take care of you." I don't know if he has robbed his brother-in-law's errand, but Master Chen's expression is not good. Paste them all up. By the way, after you draw them up, your lord will almost be in court, so you have to remember to show him the old man."

Sun Xiong felt that Mr. Chen was really powerful, at least he himself couldn't call out words like "grandfather" and "old man" to the county magistrate of Fang Shiliu that year, so he had to silently take the pen and paper, "I just don't know What notice do you want to make?"

"What else can we do? Let's call out strong men." Mr. Chen brushed the dust off his sleeves, "I don't know what our grandfather thinks, there will be no disasters, no troubles, and he always recruits peasants to dig the earth. I didn’t know what to do, so I piled it up beside the embankment, wasting money for nothing.”

Is it to control the river?

"Then how do I make a plan? How many people should be sent out from each household, and how much salary does each person have?"

Master Chen glanced at him like a fool, and smiled slightly, "Think about it yourself, you have to be taught everything by the Shangguan, so what's the use of you?"

After coming down from the hall, He Xihua went back to the study in the back of the yamen to deal with official duties, and saw the knife and pen officer who was just recruited yesterday standing in front of the case holding a piece of paper.

"You don't need to be too polite, just sit down. I was in a hurry yesterday, and I didn't have time to ask you, what kind of bear is your grandson?" He Xihua nodded slightly, and as soon as he sat down after the case, he took a sip of tea.

Sun Xiong noticed that what he drank was only coarse folk tea, and he couldn't help laughing in his heart. He Xihua's simplicity was a bit pretentious, "In terms of adults, a small bear is a bear of a bear."

He Xihua paused, then raised his eyes to look at him, "Is it the allusion of King Wen Mengxiong?"

Sun Xiong said embarrassingly: "When the little one was in the arms of my mother, my mother bumped into a black bear, but the black bear did not hurt anyone. My mother thought that the little one had a destiny with bears."

"It's quite an adventure." He Xihua smiled, took the notice he drafted, and couldn't help raising his eyebrows, "It seems that Master Chen has a grudge against me, and he didn't explain anything to you."

Sun Xiong said nervously, "What's wrong with the little one?"

"No, you write very well. With your talent and learning, it's more than enough to take the exam." He Xihua took a piece of blank rice paper and gave it to him, "Let's talk about the diction first. When writing this kind of notice, you must first be concise. Delete it. Secondly, it is good for the villagers to be able to read and write. How can they recognize running script and cursive script? You can write block letters squarely, and the characters should be larger for the convenience of the elderly. Lastly, and most importantly, is the content of this notice , it’s not your fault, Master Chen didn’t make it clear to you.”

"The reason why the villagers are asked to build soil is to control the river. Linhuai County is between the Yellow River and the Huaihe River. If any river floods, the Linhuai River will face extinction, so we have to plan ahead. But the common people don't listen to these words. I understand, they only know that the government wants to occupy their farming time and send them to dig the soil, so they naturally want to ask for corresponding rewards. The imperial conscripts cannot be preferential and tolerant, but if we conscript the peasants ourselves, we still have to try our best to consider the common people , don’t let them work in vain. Therefore, if they are invited to work, not only will they have to take care of their food, but they will also be given two copper coins a day. In addition, for every hour of work, the children in the family can attend an hour of class in the county school. You plan Notice, clarify these few things, and post them.”

Different from the high-spirited Mr. Chen, He Xihua not only speaks extremely finely, but his voice is also extremely gentle, making one feel like a spring breeze.Although Sun Xiong had prejudices, he also admitted that in the eyes of strangers, He Xihua should be a real gentleman without a doubt.

It's a pity that he knows the face of the He family better than anyone else.No matter how flawless Ren He Xihua's clothes were, in his eyes, they were all pretentious.

"Thank you for your advice, my lord. I'll fix it when I'm young." Sun Xiong rewrote it honestly, read it several times carefully, and sent it over, "Please correct me, my lord."

He Xihua took it, and saw that the writing was fluent, and he put down what he said just now on the paper in detail. He looked up at him in some surprise, and said with a smile: "The understanding is good, and children can be taught."

He only edited a few places, and said to him: "Use the largest paper to copy four copies, and if you have to work hard, you will make a trip and post it."

After Sun Xiong had finished transcribing it, he was about to go out to post it, when He Xihua said: "There is a mule in the backyard, and you can use it to deliver letters and run errands on weekdays."

"Yes." Sun Xiong went to the backyard silently, looking at the docile russet mule grazing, he couldn't tell what it was like for a moment.

If you come here, you will be safe. Although the tiger is in Pingyang and you are being bullied by dogs, this vulgar job is not useless. It can be used for food and spy on the enemy. If the destiny protects you, you can still catch it. , he thought to himself.
