Chapter 548 Life is a lifetime, grass and trees fall
"My brother, Zheng Juzhong, saved my life. Without you, where would I be today?"
"Now you want me to go to the officials to accuse you, this, this... I can't do this kind of thing!"
Wu Zhi smiled: "Brother, it's just a show."
"And if you don't do this, the things you have worked hard for will soon be robbed by Gao Qiu and Cai Jing."
Zheng Juzhong still hesitated: "But, this will make it even more difficult for you to move forward in this officialdom!"
Wu Zhi slowly raised his head and looked at the blue sky above his head. "It is difficult to walk, not a dead end."
"But to me, as long as I can walk on the road, it doesn't matter if I start walking a little slower and a little harder."
"Because the road will always get wider and smoother as we go."
"Brother, a person's life is as long as the grass and trees fall. In this life, instead of doing nothing and groveling, it is better to have the courage to create a world of your own!"
"You must bear in mind what I just said, and tomorrow morning, you can vigorously report the black case against me to the officials!"
After saying that, Wu Zhi stepped forward and turned around to leave.
Zheng Juzhong looked at Wu Zhi's retreating back. In a daze, he felt that Wu Zhi was getting taller and taller...
After Wu Zhi returned to Tokyo City, everything he did in Jiangzhou soon became a topic of conversation among people after dinner.
Whether it is an alleyway or a wealthy family, all kinds of information related to Wu Zhi are passed between people.
When talking about Wu Zhi's efforts to quell the Jiangzhou riots, it is inevitable to say something like this.
"Hey, you said that Minister Wu put down the riot in Jiangzhou this time, what did the officials reward him?"
"He has already become the Minister of the Ministry of Industry at a young age. If he is promoted again, he will become the youngest third-rank official in our Great Song Dynasty."
However, there will always be one or two sighs from the crowd from time to time.
"It's not that simple. I heard people say that all of Wu Shilang's achievements have been taken away by others."
"No way! How is this possible?"
"Huh, what kind of things won't happen in our Song Dynasty court? Did you know that the name of the prefect of Jiangzhou is Cai Jiu. Then Cai Jiu is a flattering and incompetent man. The riots in Jiangzhou are so serious and the people are displaced. All
It’s all caused by him alone!”
Of course, ordinary people did not dare to discuss the imperial court in public, and only Wu Zhi's men dared.
This man is young, and he is Tong Ze who followed Wu Zhi back to Tokyo City.
Tong Ze is a smart man, so Wu Zhi asks him to follow Bai Sheng.
When Tong Ze saw many people gathered around him, he immediately raised his voice: "Obviously it was Minister Wu who quelled the riots in Jiangzhou, but this Cai Jiu took all the credit on himself. I heard that this time he even
I have been promoted and will take office in a few days, but Wu Shilang has gained nothing."
There are always meddling people in the crowd, and they immediately asked: "How could such a thing happen? Should we just ignore it if it doesn't happen?"
Tong Ze shrugged and sighed again.
"What can I do? Who told Cai Jiu to be Grand Master Cai's adopted son?"
When Cai Jing was mentioned, people couldn't help but let out a long sigh, shook their heads, and said nothing more.
Although people dispersed from each other, they still spread the news to ten and hundreds of people as soon as possible.
Such words naturally fell into Gao Qiu's ears.
After hearing the report from his servant, Gao Qiu couldn't help but snorted coldly.
"This Wu Zhi is so calculating. How dare he let his subordinate Fourth Aunt spread such news! Didn't he expect that once the officials knew about it, they wouldn't let him stay for a moment?"
The official listened to it and asked Gao Qiu in a flattering manner: "Master, do you want to tell the official this news?"
