Chapter 5 Nothing to do
Author: Use your soul to aim
Zhang Zongxian woke up early. After breakfast, he put on his official uniform and sat in the study with Mei Lan and the others waiting. He first wrote down the making method of Erguotou that he remembered last night. Then he found a copybook and started practicing writing brushes.
Words come.
After all, this is the Ming Dynasty, so even if you are an official, you have to write calligraphy with calligraphy. I have no choice but to practice hard, otherwise I will make people laugh to death when I am asked to mention a word and sign.
After practicing for a while, Ding Bo came in and told Zhang Zongxian that the people in the county government had already gone to work. In fact, the entire county government had not gone to work early in the morning for more than ten years.
Because of Wanli's neglect of government, there were too many officials at all levels in the world, resulting in local affairs being controlled by these officials.
When there was no county magistrate, everyone only came to the county government office in the afternoon. Anyway, apart from collecting taxes and apportioning taxes, they could do whatever they wanted as long as there was no rebellion. Zhang Zongxian put on his official uniform and walked to the lobby and sat down directly.
After Zhang Zongxian sat down, the standing team members also quickly stood in the lobby. Zhang Zongxian was very satisfied with their performance, and he seemed to be in the same situation. Then all the stewards from the sixth room came out to salute Zhang Zongxian, waved their hands and let the six
Fang went back to work.
Zhang Zongxian was sitting in the lobby, with government servants standing on both sides, looking at the people working in the sixth room. Zhang Zongxian finally felt the majesty of power, so he quickly reminded himself not to be deceived by power, and to be diligent and caring for the people.
Be a good official.
Qian Dianshi arrived soon after and was about to go to his office in the second hall. When he saw where Zhang Zongxian was, he immediately went over to salute. After saluting, he said:
"The county magistrate is really diligent in his work for the people, why did he start working so early!"
"Hey, Qian Dianshi has worked hard and is here so early. Is there anything you want to ask for today?"
"The county magistrate has nothing to do to ask for instructions today."
"Is there any case that needs to be decided?"
"The county has not seen a case in Qingjian County for almost 10 years."
"Really? Haha, the people are really honest! Qian Dianshi has done a great job in educating us!"
"All the county government officials and the gentry are working together to help."
"Is there any official document passed down from above?"
"There is no official document. The latest official document is also an official document saying that you are about to take office. However, there is a newspaper from Di."
"Then bring me the newspaper."
"Your Majesty, wait a moment."
Qian Dianshi brought all the Di newspapers he had received in recent months to Zhang Zongxian. Zhang Zongxian finally had something to do and read the Di newspapers.
Most of the content in Di Bao was still about the battlefield in Liaodong. The wild boar skins had begun to rebel. They captured Fushun first, and guard Li Yongfang surrendered to Houjin. Later Jin captured and plundered nearly 300,000 people and livestock, and the seizures were astonishing, which greatly promoted the development of the country.
gained strength.
Later, Wild Boar Skin attacked Qinghe, and the defender Zou Chuxian was loyal and unyielding. After the city was broken, he gathered his wife and children in the official office, lit them on fire, and his wife and children died. He went into the battle again, and was finally exhausted and killed by arrows. Qinghe's soldiers and civilians were tens of thousands
, no one surrendered, and all died in battle. The Ming Dynasty lost Qinghe, and the whole Liao Dynasty was shocked.
Zhang Zongxian looked through the Di newspapers but did not see the report of the Battle of Sarhu. He remembered that Boar Skin defeated the Ming army of 200,000 in the Battle of Sarhu. After that, the Ming army completely collapsed in Liaodong and was on the defensive.
Now that the Battle of Saarhu has not happened yet, there is still a chance to make amends. If that doesn't work, we have to find a way to put some eye drops on the wild boar's skin. We can't let him win too easily. But how can we give the wild boar skin to Liaodong in Shaanxi?
Put on eye drops?
Zhang Zongxian thought hard for a long time and suddenly had an idea when he saw the Di newspaper:
Since the Battle of Saarhu has not yet happened, the entire battle process was written down in a book and sent to Liaodong, the capital, and the attack plan was written down. I don’t believe that the Ming army will still follow this plan. The county magistrate in the court should not be such an idiot. Bar.
Write down everything from how the wild boar skin was captured in Fushun to how to capture Tieling in Shenyang after the Battle of Sarhu, and then compile it into storytelling for storytelling to be sung.
Focus on describing how Boar Skin arranged for people to sneak into Tieling and Shenyang, how to seize the city gate. These are all described in detail. The habits of Boar Skin are also described, and what they will do to the Han people in Liaodong in the future are written down one by one. The whole family is a slave, and the food is not as good as that of animals. They work until they die of exhaustion. When there is no food, slaves are food.
I also want to tell the world that wild boar skins practice sorcery and use shamanic witchcraft to control slaves. Even after death, those slaves will be made into magic tools by shamans and will never be reincarnated. Therefore, do not surrender. You must fight to the death to be reincarnated. .
Moreover, it must be emphasized that the biggest function of the shaman's magic weapon is to increase the marching speed. You cannot run away. Only those who die in battle will not be suppressed by the shaman's magic weapon and can still be human in the next life. It is also emphasized that firearms can destroy shamans. Spells.
After thinking about what to do, Zhang Zongxian stopped staying in the lobby. He went back to the backyard study to write down all his ideas. He had to implement them as soon as possible, otherwise it would be too late to break out the Saarhu War.
Qian Dianshi smiled heartily when he saw Zhang Zongxian back in the backyard, thinking that you are a dandy who can't get into the exam and spend money to buy an official position. I know you can't sit still. Without you, Qian, I would be the god of Qingjian County.
I have been the official historian of Qingjian County for more than ten years. Who in the county government refuses to listen to me? It’s better if you understand the rules and stay in the inner courtyard with peace of mind, otherwise I will let you go out in despair.
I should have established a relationship as early as possible and bought myself an official. It is not economical to buy it at such an old age. Why not give it to the younger ones in the family to try? While thinking about the future arrangements, I walked towards the sixth room and the manager of the sixth room. At this time, he also came out to greet him.
When he saw that all the six rooms had arrived, he immediately told everyone to leave and go about whatever you should be busy with. You don't need to be on duty here. Everyone also dispersed.
Qian Dianshi also went home. He wanted to go home and save some money to see how much he had. He estimated how much it would cost to buy a county magistrate.
Zhang Zongxian returned to the backyard and quickly picked up a brush to record the story when he got to the study. He couldn't write storytelling, so he would have to find someone who could write to optimize it, so he would write it in the form of a vernacular novel.
I’ll write about the Boar Skin’s occupation of Shenyang first, and I won’t write the rest for now. I’ll wait for the situation. I need to give the book a good name and leave some foreshadowing in it so that I can borrow the book later and do things.
In this way, Zhang Zongxian wrote hard in the study all day long and had lunch in the study. It was not until night that Zhang Zongxian was not used to the light of the candle that he stopped writing.
After he stopped writing, Zhang Zongxian collapsed on the Taishi chair. After writing for a day, his back was sore and there was no boss chair to sit on, and his buttocks hurt from sitting. Uncle Ding was very relieved to see Zhang Zongxian so tired. He had seen him since the master left. Zhang Zongxian is taciturn and knows how to persuade him.
Now that I have come to Qingjian County to be the county magistrate, I am obviously much better than before. I talk more and I am not so rejecting to other people, and I am more motivated.
Uncle Ding first silently comforted Zhang Zongxian's father's spirit in heaven. Seeing that he was so exhausted after working so hard, he asked Mei Lan and two older maids to go in. One pinched Zhang Zongxian's shoulders and the other pinched his thighs. They felt it.
With the warmth of his little hands, Zhang Zongxian enjoyed the comfort of this moment.
He had never enjoyed such a service in his previous life. It was so comfortable that Zhang Zongxian almost fell asleep. While enjoying it, Zhang Zongxian complained that this cadre just couldn’t stand the test! In just a few days, he was corrupted by the feudal society.
After pressing for half an hour, Zhang Zongxian let Xiaomei and Xiaolan go down. He also ordered Uncle Ding to give the maids more food. These children were just growing up, and they couldn't hold it anymore after half an hour.
Uncle Ding also felt that these maids were too dark and thin to handle, so he ordered the kitchen to buy more meat.
During dinner, the plum blossoms, orchids, bamboos and chrysanthemums opened their mouths to eat meat for the first time and shed tears of happiness. Although these dishes were leftovers from Zhang Zongxian’s meals, they were also delicacies they had never enjoyed before since they were young. This was the first time they had eaten them.
Too full.
They all think that Zhang Zongxian is a good gentleman, and such a county magistrate must be a good official and a great master.
Zhang Zongxian returned to his room after a tiring day and was not used to going to bed so early. However, the conditions in this feudal society were limited and he could not entertain himself at night. He was not used to writing with a candle in his hand, so he had to force himself to go to bed early.
Zhang Zongxian woke up at dawn, finished eating and packed up, and then walked directly to the lobby. Except for the two gatekeepers at the second hall entrance guard, there was no one in the entire Yamen along the way.
Zhang Zongxian thought something was wrong, everyone was working at this time yesterday! Civil servants in the Ming Dynasty also had weekends off? Qian Dianshi didn't even say a word to make him get up so early. Thinking about it again, it's still wrong! Only Christians have Sunday.
Zhang Zongxian called the gatekeeper of the county government office and asked them where the people from the county government had gone. The gatekeeper did not know how to answer Zhang Zongxian and could only stand there silently. Zhang Zongxian put on the airs of the county magistrate and shouted loudly.
He scolded the two of them and said:
"Tell me where the person who spoke is. If you don't speak, you won't come tomorrow."
The two government officials quickly knelt down and said:
"Please have mercy on the county magistrate! The master of the sixth room will not come over to work until lunch. They live near the county government office. I'll call him right away."
Zhang Zongxian thought to himself, I woke up so damn early and you are still sleeping at home.
Are you a bit conscious of beating up the workers? Don’t you know the three things a new official should do when he takes office? This is not respecting the leadership at all.
We need to educate you carefully about what it means to be a worker, and what it means to be a new official when he takes office. Send those two government servants to call for help right away.
Soon the manager of the sixth room and the third shift yamen officer arrived in the lobby. Zhang Zongxian just sat there without saying a word.
The supervisors of the sixth room below didn't know what to do, so they could only kneel and wait for Zhang Zongxian to speak. After another half an hour, Qian Dianshi also came over. Qian Dianshi was very unhappy when he saw this scene.
I thought to myself that Zhang Zongxian, a stupid young man, didn't understand the rules. That's not the case in that yamen. Is it necessary for any of us to get up so early every day if we don't just make ends meet?
The county government doesn’t have that many things to do! Isn’t it wrong for you to be so young and walk around the backyard playing with women? You have to get involved, do you understand? You don’t even have a master?
He thought so in his heart, but after all, he was his immediate boss and he didn't dare to say it out loud. He could only bite the bullet and go forward and salute Zhang Zongxian.
"What's wrong with the county magistrate? Did the people below do something wrong?"
Zhang Zongxian thought to himself, you old fox is finally willing to come out and I will wait for you.
"Qian Dianshi is here, please show Qian Dianshi his seat."
The yamen servant next to him quickly brought a chair to Qian Dianshi. Qian Dianshi calculated in his mind that you know the truth, but I will still make a fuss in a while that will make you unable to get off the stage, otherwise these people will definitely listen to you instead of me.
Qian Dianshi sat down and was about to continue talking, but Zhang Zongxian got up and stood up. Qian Dianshi did not dare to sit down and stood up as well.
