"His Majesty!"

Zhang Ji stood outside the study and shouted loudly.

Ying Zheng stared at Zhang Ji and Hu Hai, then looked at Zhao Gao, who was standing outside the door with his head down, and said coldly: "Come in!"

"Your Majesty, I dare to ask, why did you destroy the young master's desire to serve the country?"

As soon as Zhang Ji entered the study, he knelt down and cried before Ying Zheng could ask questions, "The national treasury is empty, natural disasters and man-made disasters. Prince Hu Hai is worried about major national affairs and provides advice for the country. Why is it worthless in the eyes of Your Majesty?"

"This move not only disappointed Prince Hu Hai's desire to serve the country, but also made me confused. Please make it clear to your Majesty!"

Hearing this, Ying Zheng frowned and then sneered: "You mean to serve the country? Then I ask you, what you mean to serve the country is to let me sell official positions or titles? Or let me demolish the east wall and repair the west wall?"

"I ask you Zhang Ji, if someone pays 1 million yuan for your position as Zuo Tingwei, will I sell it or not?"

"A million yuan can help the people of a county or even a county. According to common sense, I should sell it!"

"But this Zuo Tingwei, who bought an official, did not want to be loyal to the emperor and serve the country, but only cared about corruption and abuse of power. In order to get back the money from the official, it led to a lot of unjust, false and wrong cases. Do you think I lost or made a profit?"

"this......"

Zhang Ji raised his head and was speechless for a moment.

"As the saying goes, if you are not in your position and do not do your politics, don't worry about these things, and you will handle your case well. You can't worry about national affairs, so you can't worry about it!"

Zheng Guo looked at Ying Zheng in surprise.

When Feng Quji sold official positions and titles, he had known this.

But now why does Your Majesty oppose selling official positions and titles?

Could it be that Feng Quji was secretly operating?

This is impossible!

Without His Majesty's approval, he would not dare to do such lawless things with the courage of Feng Quji.

It seems that Your Majesty has changed again... Zheng State is now a little confused about Ying Zheng's thoughts.

Ying Zheng's series of rhetorical questions made Zhang Ji stunned, his mouth slightly opened, and he didn't even have the courage to argue.

"Your Majesty, I..."

Zhang Ji wanted to say something, but Ying Zheng scolded him tirelessly: "Get out of here!"

"Oh...oh...Okay, I'm leaving!"

When Zhang Ji and Hu Hai came, they were full of momentum. There was no time to finish the tea. One looked like a defeated rooster, and the other looked like a frightened quail, and left the study.

Zhao Gao stood at the entrance of the study, speechless.

It was originally annoying to Ying Zheng, but now I have brought another cheating product to make Ying Zheng unhappy.

Now, the bamboo basket is useless.

After leaving Ying Zheng's study, Zhang Ji looked at Hu Hai and felt a little embarrassed, but he said with confidence: "Young Master, don't worry, our original intentions are all good, Your Majesty will definitely understand us!"

Hearing this, Hu Hai clenched his fists.

If Zhang Ji hadn't been useful, he really wanted to beat this pig's head.

What can the father understand?

You don’t know that my current status is already on the brink of danger. Every step I take is like walking on thin ice?

Now I am annoyed by my father. Isn’t this even more annoying to my father?

Although he was whispering in his heart, he was not good at accusing Zhang Ji in person. Hu Hai could only suppress the anger in his heart, showed an ugly smile, and bowed: "Thank you, Zhang Tingwei for his advice."

.........

On the other side.

Zhao Kun sat in the yard with his chin in his arms, a little bored.

Thinking of Ying Zheng's lonely back when he left, he felt very uncomfortable. It was obvious that a day or two had passed, and he felt like life was like the age of the year.

"Old Wu, I'll go out."

Zhao Kun looked at Wu Cheng who was practicing swords beside him and said absent-mindedly.

Wu Cheng hurriedly put away his sword and said, "Young Master, do you want your subordinates to accompany you?"

"No, I'll go to Qiankou Village to relax, it's okay!" Zhao Kun waved his hand, then stood up and walked out of the yard.

Wu Cheng frowned and muttered to himself: "Young Master is a little absent-minded these past two days, why do you seem unhappy?"

In fact, Zhao Kun couldn't tell why he was unhappy. It was normal for the father and son to have conflicts. He didn't think his adoptive father was the kind of petty person.

But I just feel that I can’t lift my energy in anything I do, and I always feel the loneliness I felt when I just traveled through time and came to the Qin Dynasty.

………

On both sides of the road to Qiankou Village, there are still snow melting, and tender buds can be seen everywhere appearing full of vitality.

It is said that March is the season when all things are revived. Now it is only February, and dead branches have already burst out with tender buds. It is really tenacious.

At this time, Zhao Kun was riding leisurely in the middle of the road on a horse, especially when he saw the green forest that was sprouting, he couldn't help but exclaim: "I didn't expect that there would be such a wonderful scenery in this Qiankou Village!"

"Young Master doesn't know anything. A few years ago, the Shaofu ordered the control and did not allow villagers to cut down trees privately. Even the village ancestral hall repaired, the Shaofu must be informed. Therefore, the forests in the mountains are much lush!" Zhang San, who was walking by Zhao Kun, explained with a smile.

When Zhao Kun came to Qiankou Village, Zhang San was the first to discover him, but seeing Zhao Kun's condition seemed to be a little wrong.

He couldn't rest assured, so he followed along the way.

If Zhao Kun hadn’t transformed Qiankou Village, Qiankou Village wouldn’t have had the best life now.

Therefore, whether it was Zhang San or other villagers in Qiankou Village, they regarded Zhao Kun as their great benefactor, and how dare they serve him accidentally?

Zhao Kun did not reject Zhang San's follow-up, but hesitated for a moment before asking: "Isn't this Qiankou Village the fiefdom of the Wang family? It is also under the jurisdiction of the Shaofu?"

"Whenever it involves mountains and rivers, it is under the jurisdiction of the Shaofu."

Zhao Kun nodded and said to himself: "It's better not to log. Only by protecting green waters and green mountains can you have future gold and silver mountains!"

"Straits of gold and silver?" Zhang San was a little puzzled and looked at Zhao Kun with a gaze.

Zhao Kun smiled silently, without explanation.

At this time, Zhang San suddenly said: "I heard that Meiyuan Township also wants to develop according to the Qiankou Village model, and Bosun has also been promoted?"

"Oh?" Zhao Kun was surprised: "There is still this?"

Zhang San scratched his head and said, "Qiankou Village has a good life. The surrounding villages know that it is the kindness of the young master, so they went to find the magistrate Chen, hoping to develop together."

Hearing this, Zhao Kun became interested and asked again: "Then how far is this Meiyuan Township from Qiankou Village?"

"Not far." Zhang San pointed to a vaguely visible mountain and said, "Climbing that mountain is Meiyuan Township, but the mountain road is not easy to walk, and you need to walk around it, about three or five miles."

"Only three or five miles?"

Zhao Kun thought about it and then smiled and said, "You go find a horse, let's go to Meiyuan Township!"

"good!"

Zhang San had gone to the county's horse farm to do odd jobs, so it was hard for him to ride horses or something.

Soon, he borrowed a horse from the entrance of the village.

………

When Zhao Kun appeared in Meiyuan Township, the village was rushing to greet him.

"Young Master, you are here in Meiyuan Township!" Lao Li was shook hands with Zhao Kun, his voice trembling.

This made Zhao Kun realize that what Zhang San said just now was suspected of deliberately luring him to Meiyuan Township.

It seems that Limasato from Miyuan Township has long been looking forward to coming to Miyuan Township.

I felt a little funny and looked at Zhang San with a little depressed feeling. This guy actually had a trap for him and he really deserved to be beaten.

However, he should not have any bad intentions.

After pondering for a while, Zhao Kun smiled and said, "I heard that Meiyuan Township also wants to develop with Qiankou Village. I wonder if this matter is true?"

"true."

Lao Li nodded and said, "Meiyuan Township is adjacent to Qiankou Village, which is the same ditch to divert water. Naturally, I hope the young master will take care of Meiyuan Township."

"Then you went to find the magistrate Chen. How did the magistrate Chen arrange it?"

"There are several workshops in Qiankou Village that need to be expanded, but the expansion location is not very good. County Magistrate Chen plans to re-select a site in Meiyuan Township!"

As he said that, Lao Li pointed around and said, "This high ground is well ventilated and has a wide location, suitable for papermaking!"

"Sometimes ago, the craftsmen from Qiankou Village conducted an experiment here, igniting the dry grass, and the smoke gathered but did not disperse. Only after they ascended to heaven would they float to the back mountain."

Hearing this, Zhao Kun nodded with satisfaction and asked again: "Where is the drainage?"

"The most important thing about a papermaking workshop is the water source. I naturally don't dare to be careless when I am down. The drainage culvert is being built, and the progress is faster than that of the workshop." Lao Li replied while stroking his beard.

Zhao Kun: "So, the villagers of Meiyuan Township are very active!"

“More than just positive?”

Before Lao Li could speak, Zhang San smiled and interrupted, "Even if Chunfen has been doing this for the past few days, they are unwilling to stop!"

Hearing this, Lao Li was smiling and shook his head, adding: "I am worried about the criticism of the Neishi Mansion. After several persuasion, the villagers who dug the canal were willing to stop temporarily."

Zhao Kun nodded and looked at Lao Lizheng with approval: "You are doing well."
