Four elder brothers take the script of salted fish

Fuzhou magistrate Wang Zhen would be a fool if he hadn't noticed that something was wrong—no!It should be said that when he found out that the emperor's reaction was wrong, Wang Zhen was already a fool.The cold sweat on his back permeated the whole suit, he bent down and picked up the memorial with trembling hands, opened it carefully and took a look.

Fuzhou prefect Wang Zhen blinked.

Immediately afterwards, his eyes enlarged instantly, and Wang Hao rubbed his eyes in disbelief, and then stared at the booklet in front of him for a long time.If the emperor's anger only caused three parts of the blood to fade from his face, then the remaining seven parts of the blood on Wang Yuan's face now also disappeared.

Wang Hao quickly flipped through the memorial, his expression collapsed as if he wanted to swallow the memorial in one gulp!After this unprecedented attitude caused a commotion among the surrounding officials, their eyes could not stop turning to that small piece.

What the hell is this! ?

The turmoil of the officials was also included in Kangxi's eyes.Said that Kangxi was angry?Kangxi was indeed angry, but his anger towards Fuzhou prefect Wang Zhen was actually not too much.

Obviously, according to the survey, people in many places in Guangdong and Fujian grow sweet potatoes for consumption, but it depends on the officials present.Wang Zhen doesn't know the value of sweet potatoes, so what are these people who have never even heard of the name and appearance of sweet potatoes?It's all fifty steps laughing at a hundred steps!

Fuzhou prefect Wang Zhen didn't think so.

He fell to his knees in a daze, his whole body collapsed as if he had lost his support.

Wang Zhen thought he was a good official.

He has always regarded his background as a stain when he came out of an official position. In order to win a sigh of relief, he abides by the law, is honest and fair, and manages Fuzhou City in an orderly manner.

But the reality gave Wang Zhen a blow in the head!

This treasure named Sweet Potato is simply a miracle bestowed by the heavens. I have never discovered such a treasure for several years... No!He has clearly seen it, even eaten it, and knows that the common people use it as food, but he has never deeply understood it.

Kangxi watched the reaction of Fuzhou prefect Wang Zhen coldly.

The position of the prefect of Fuzhou is not easy to take on. In Fuzhou city, there are not only the Navy Admiral's Mansion but also the Fujian Admiral's Mansion.

As the saying goes, one mountain cannot accommodate two tigers.

The Admiral of Fujian and the Admiral of the Navy are together, and the daily disputes are not an easy job, and the position of the prefect of Fuzhou is also very difficult-otherwise this official position from the fourth rank would not fall to the shadowy Wang Zhen.

Wang Hao knelt down on the ground with a pale face.

With tears streaming down his face, he kowtowed vigorously: "The guilty minister is guilty, the guilty minister is guilty!"

This move caused an uproar around.

The officials present frowned. They racked their brains and slowly pondered the memory of this thing. Unfortunately, the memory...was zero.

Seeing that Fuzhou magistrate Wang Xie seemed to be ten years older during this short cup of tea, Kangxi's anger also disappeared a lot.He looked around at the old or young faces around him, and he didn't want to be a joke anymore.

Kangxi said in a deep voice: "One can produce a thousand catties per mu, one can be planted twice a year, and one can fill the stomachs of thousands of people. You told me that you don't like it because of your bad breath?"

His voice became heavier and heavier every time, and in the end it was as loud as a bell.Everyone's mouths were wide open, and the entire room was silent, even if a needle fell on the ground, it could still be clearly heard.

The expressions of the surrounding officials were dull.

They looked at each other and gasped at the same time.

It's no wonder that Fuzhou prefect Wang Zhen became like this.

Within a short time, many Fujian officials, headed by Admiral Shi Lang of the Fujian Navy, fell to their knees one after another, and then all the officials who accompanied them to Fujian also fell to their knees.

Kangxi glanced at the officials present in disappointment.

He told about the actions of the Chen family in Changle, Fuzhou, and the Chen family in Humen, Guangdong, one by one: "There are still people who have righteousness among the common people, and you, as officials, should be sympathetic to the sufferings of the common people! Wang Zhen!"

"My humble minister is here!" Fuzhou prefect Wang Lin's face was ashen.

"I remove your crown wearing Hualing, do you have any objection?"

"The humble minister...the guilty minister dare not." Wang Zhen choked up his voice.

He knelt on the ground annoyed, years of painstaking efforts were ruined in one day, but Wang Hao didn't even have room to refute!As a parent official, he is dereliction of duty, this is a great dereliction of duty!Thinking about it carefully, someone might have mentioned sweet potatoes in his ears, but he didn't pay attention to sweet potatoes at all because of the impression he had when he was young.

How can such a person be qualified to be a parent officer!

Wang Hao wiped away his tears, and kowtowed again several times: "The guilty minister is guilty, please forgive me."

Seeing this, Wang Xinming, governor of Fujian and Zhejiang, also choked up and choked up: "Report to the emperor, this matter is not the fault of Wang Zhen alone, and the humble minister is also guilty of not investigating!"

After Fujian and Zhejiang governor Wang Xinming pleaded guilty, Fujian navy admiral Shi Lang and other officials also pleaded guilty one after another.

In the next second, Kangxi spoke again: "Wang Zhen."

Wang Zhen's face was calm: "The guilty minister is here."

Kangxi's words turned everything around again: "I sent people to visit the surrounding areas of Fuzhou. You are an honest and fair official, and you are deeply loved by the people. I will not remove your crown feather this time. I will only punish you for three years. Redemption, spread the sweet potato to the north and south of the river."

Wang Zhen, the prefect of Fuzhou, was stunned.

Last second he was still in hell, this second is like returning to heaven, Wang Zhen kowtowed again and again: "I thank the emperor for your kindness, I will definitely live up to the emperor's expectations!"

Fuzhou prefect Wang Zhen's spirit was lifted.

After leaving the admiral's mansion, he rushed to the yamen immediately, making people——no!He wants to take people to Changle Township to ask everyone in the Chen family about their experience in raising potatoes.

As for Kangxi, he was going back to Beijing after the military exercise, but now he sent a letter back to the capital, deciding to stay for another month to see how the sweet potatoes grow.

One thousand catties per mu.

Although the fruits in the warehouse are vivid in his mind, Kangxi is still uneasy in his heart. He always feels that it is more practical to see it with his own eyes.

Not only Fuzhou prefect Wang Zhen, but also the governor of Zhejiang and Fujian, Wang Xinming, and a group of Fujian officials did not escape the fate of being reprimanded. Officials who made no serious mistakes in the investigation were beaten by Haosheng. As for a few of them... they were directly removed For Dai Hualing, that was nothing more than a normal thing.

Next, it is about military exercises and shipping.

Seeing that he had nothing to do with himself, Yinzhen took Yinzhi and tiptoed away. The two stretched greatly, and said at the same time: "Let's go—! Let's go back to the backyard and eat sweet potato snacks!"

After the words fell, the two looked at each other.

Yinzhen and Yinzhi smiled tacitly, and ran happily to the backyard.There are not only so many kinds of sweet potato snacks made by Concubine Tong, but also sweet potato soup, sweet potato steamed cake, sweet potato crisp, sweet potato baked pudding... There are also hot and sour noodles made of sweet potato flour, sweet potato vermicelli... Anyway, just thinking about it Yinzhen and Yinzhi's saliva is about to drop!

Concubine Tong Huanggui and Concubine Hui also know the attributes of the two greedy cats.

Before Yinzhen and Yinzhi entered the yard, the rich and fragrant fragrance had already diffused in the backyard.Su Peisheng couldn't help rolling his throat, not to mention a group of little eunuchs and maids staring straight into it, all of them restless.

Yinzhen and Yinzhi subconsciously quickened their pace.

The big round table was already covered with dazzling delicacies, and before Yinzhen could decide which one to start with, a young eunuch trotted in, saying that the steward of the front yard asked for an audience.

This is strange!

The backyard of the admiral's mansion is now full of noble masters in the palace, and the stewards of the outer court have to be reminded, wishing to take care of everything on their own, and this is the first time they have asked to see each other!

Concubine Tong ordered the snacks to be taken away, and then ordered the little eunuch: "Let him in."

The steward lowered his head and walked quickly into the room.

Although the emperor had been staying here for nearly two months, it was the first time the steward had stepped into the inner courtyard.Not to mention that the eunuch leading the way was silent all the way, bowing forward, and surrounded by strict guards, the palace people behaved according to the rules, and the orderly scene made his heart beat faster.

The steward did not dare to raise his head as soon as he entered the room, and knelt down on the ground according to the eunuch's instructions: "Young one, please greet the imperial concubine, the empress Hui, the third prince, and the fourth prince."

"Get up."

It was Concubine Tong Huanggui who spoke: "What happened in the front yard?"

The steward got up from the ground.

Without squinting, he replied respectfully: "Master, a middle-aged man came to the front yard, claiming to be the younger brother of Xiao Wang from Chengjiazhuang, and came to take away his nephew."

Everyone was stunned.

Immediately afterwards, one and two of them frowned, and Yinzhen was a little incredulous: "You said someone claimed to be Xiao Wang's younger brother?"

The steward agreed.

Perhaps sensing the hesitation in the voices of his masters, he added: "Accompanied by officials from the prefect's yamen, their identities have already been checked."

Even so, the expressions of Yinzhen and the others were quite strange.

As soon as he arrived in Fuzhou City, Kangxi sent people to the address on the letter to find the person.Surprisingly, the wealthy Wang family in Chengjiazhuang's population has been completely ruined. Even the ancestral house has been mortgaged to others and moved out.

If things hadn't happened one after another after coming to Fuzhou City, perhaps this child would have been given up to other people long ago.

And now suddenly someone came out?

Yinzhen and the others looked at each other, and after a while he and Yinzhi stood up: "Let's go out and have a look."

There were four people waiting in the flower hall in the front yard.

The old god sitting on the chair is a middle-aged man, wearing the official robes of the yamen, obviously the official mentioned by the steward.The other three... Yinzhi and Yinzhen's eyes fell on the young man in his early 20s.

The young man is quite handsome.

It's just that his face was full of sorrow, and the look of frowning made him lose his charm, and he stood there limply like an eggplant beaten by frost.After hearing the footsteps, the young man showed anticipation and turned around. After seeing Yinzhen and Yinzhi two half-sized children stepping into the room, the anticipation was fleeting, and even more so, he frowned slightly: " Two young masters, your adults are not here—”

The steward glared at the young man angrily.

He yelled sharply: "Bold and unreasonable! Do you know who these two are in front of you? This is—— woo woo woo!" Pull him down.

youth:……? ? ?

The weird atmosphere made him quite at a loss, and he looked at Yinzhen and Yinzhi nervously.

Yinzhen smiled and nodded the chair: "Sit."

As for him and Yinzhi, they took their seats swaggeringly, scanning the young man with great interest: "What's your name?"

"Student Wang Minxue, character Yuankui." The young man replied respectfully.With the reminder from the steward, Wang Minxue was not a fool, and immediately understood that the identities of these two young masters were unusual.But he has never heard of Fuzhou Navy Admiral Jinghaihou Shi adults have such a young child?Wang Minxue had no choice but to keep his attitude to the minimum, so as not to offend the two young masters.

Yinzhi is very interested in his calligraphy.

He smiled and asked, "That's a good character. Have you passed the exam?"

Wang Minxue coughed.

He blushed slightly and lowered his head: "So far, he's only a scholar." However, his parents and clan had high hopes for him, and he didn't know how many people laughed at him by taking such a word.Wang Minxue tried to change the subject: "You two young masters, may I ask where my nephew is...?"

"He's still young, just fell asleep after eating."

Yin Zhi replied with a smile, and then asked: "My son once heard from Cheng Jiazhuang that the person in charge of the Wang family is Xiao Wang's father, why didn't he...?"

"My father... passed away at the end of last year."

"...I'm rude, I'm rude." When mentioning the other party's sadness, Yin Zhi showed embarrassment.He hurriedly ordered people to serve tea, but at the same time he realized that something was wrong, and asked subconsciously: "Your father died less than a year ago, why did you sell your ancestral house?"

Before Yinzhen took a sip of the teacup, he heard this earth-shattering question.He stared at Yinzhi blankly, and complained secretly in his heart: Third brother——are you stabbing someone in the heart with a knife?If you go any further, you might as well just ask him if he is a prodigal son, why did he lose all of Wang's family business in half a year!

Yinzhi's words were like sharp arrows piercing Wang Minxue's heart. He managed not to spit out a mouthful of blood. After a moment of silence, he gritted his teeth and smiled stiffly: "Students are useless, because they lost the foundation laid by their ancestors."

Is that so?

Yinzhen's eyes fell on his clenched hands, these small movements have already revealed Wang Minxue's angry mood.

not to mention……

Yinzhen looked up, and the faces of the two bookboys standing behind the young man were also full of dissatisfaction.

Oh, it seems that there are other articles in it.
