As she spoke, she got up from her seat.
It was only then that she saw that she was wearing a green grass-curved Hunan skirt. She took a step forward, and the skirt swayed like thin water waves. She walked directly to his side, pacing around him. , sizing him up and down.
Wei Liang felt horrified.
When the other party stood in front of him, he didn't dare to look up; when the other party stood behind him, his back was as stiff as a stone pillar.
Jiang Xuening knew Wei Liang in the last life, it was purely a misunderstanding.
At that time, the king of Linzi, Shen Jie, had just ascended the throne, and he took her to play in Jingzhongfang City. He met a group of businessmen with deep eyes and high noses who came from the sea, and they were selling some strange-looking fruits on the street.
A lot of people gathered around to watch the fun.
But very few have to spend money on it.
She and Shen Jie were watching the lively next to them, but they didn't expect that when they were about to leave, they saw a literati who was not tall or strong trying to squeeze out of the crowd, came to the merchants, and said that he not only wanted to buy those fruits , and want to buy the seeds of these fruits.
So there was a lot of chatter, but the price was not negotiated.
This literati blushed, and seemed to be very obsessed with these fruits and seeds, standing on the street and refusing to leave.
After all, Zheng Bao was still sharp-eyed, remembering that, and quietly whispered to Shen Jie: "Isn't this the Wei Tanhua appointed by you at Jinke?"
Only then did Shen Jie take a serious look.
Jiang Xuening couldn't help but be surprised.
As soon as Shen Jie thought about it, he asked Zheng Bao to clear the siege for this eccentric Tanhua Lang, paid the money, and finally let people lead people to talk.
Shen Jiegui didn't remember people very much as the emperor, but even though Shen Jie, who was the third flower, didn't remember what Shen Jie looked like, he could still recognize Zheng Bao, who was standing in front of the steps when the golden hall passed down, so he immediately came forward to salute.
Fortunately, Shen Jie stopped in time.
Then he asked him in great puzzlement what he wanted to do by buying this bunch of stuff.
Cold sweat broke out on Wei Liang's head, and he only said that he has some hobbies that are not on the table, and he is used to studying things in the fields. He hoped that Shen Jie would not be surprised.
Shen Jie glanced at the fruits in his arms and shook his head.
I don't know if I think this Tanhua Lang is not doing his job or he has other ideas, but in the end, he didn't punish him, he only said: "It's okay to have some entertainment outside of the official business. Take it back and study it. Anyway, I paid for it. If you really want to study something, remember to send it to the palace to honor it. Although I am not good at this, the queen is very greedy, maybe she likes to eat."
Jiang Xuening stood behind him, feeling shameless and wanted to refute, but he couldn't say anything, so he could only swallow a sullen breath in his stomach.
Wei Liang let out a sigh of relief as if he had escaped the catastrophe.
After that, Shen Jie and Jiang Xuening returned to the palace, and the matter came to an end. In the palace, people fought with people, ghosts fought with ghosts, and it didn't take long for her to forget about it.
But no one expected that in the midsummer of the following year, she was teaching the myna a few under the corridor outside the Kunning Palace hall, and she saw that the head of the Household Affairs Office brought in several eunuchs carrying something.
At first glance, it is full of strangely shaped fruits.
There is also a giant meteor hammer covered with spikes.
Only when I asked, did I know that it was an editor in the Hanlin Academy named Wei Liang, who specially presented it. I asked the emperor, and someone sent it to her.
Jiang Xuening couldn't remember what happened at the beginning. As soon as the eunuch of the Ministry of Internal Affairs left, he and the maids in the palace studied these fruits for a long time.
Some are delicious, some are not.
In the end, everyone's attention was focused on the thorny fruit. I heard that it was called durian, and I had to open the outer shell to eat the meat inside, so I asked the little eunuch to take a knife and finally open it. .
result…
The smell simply stunned everyone up and down the Kunning Palace, making Jiang Xuening unforgettable for a lifetime!
Is this thing said to be edible
She was furious, only thinking that the surnamed Wei looked honest, it turned out to be more than the clear old officials in the court who opposed her, this is obviously taking the opportunity to humiliate herself!
So one day the Emperor of the Royal Garden gave a banquet, and Jiang Xuening found an opportunity to bring Wei Liang out to speak alone.
Wei Liang seemed to be unaware of the trouble he had caused, and asked Jiang Xuening how the fruits were eating.
Jiang Xuening almost asked someone to pull him down and behead him.
But why this is also Tanhualang ordered by the emperor himself, but it was not her turn to act blatantly, so she just smiled and told him that she liked the things he gave, since he was so concerned about the fruits and vegetables Heart, it is a waste to stay in the Hanlin Academy, why not let it go and become a parent official with the people and teach them to farm? She can also help him talk to the emperor.
It stands to reason that any officials in the DPRK and China who have some brains will be frightened and sweating when they hear this.
Because the words themselves are a clear threat.
Staying in the Hanlin Academy is the "storage minister", and most of them can stay in Beijing to become officials in the future. If you have to go abroad to be an official in the provinces before you can get through it, it will be unsatisfactory, a low-level official, and a drudgery.
Unexpectedly, after Wei Liang was stunned, he was actually full of joy, his brows and eyes were full of light, and even his face was red, he stumbled and bowed: "He, how dare you trouble the empress?"
At that time, Jiang Xuening really didn't understand what his reaction was.
She made a few more sarcastic remarks, but Wei Liang didn't know if he was really confused or pretended to be confused, he thought she was complimenting him, and his smile grew brighter.
In the end, Jiang Xuening was at a loss. Seeing that he was not angry at all, he was so annoyed that he walked away.
That night, he made a small report with Shen Jie.
Talking about how Wei Liang is, he is bent on flattering himself, not a good official, so he simply sent it to a remote province, let him reflect on it, and be happy if he loves farming.
Shen Jie couldn't help comforting her, coaxing her so that she wouldn't be angry.
At that time, Jiang Xuening thought that Shen Jie was still partial to this annoying Tanhua.
As a result, I heard the next day that Shen Jie directly took Wei Liang out of the Hanlin Academy and threw it to Gaoyou to be the county magistrate.
Now Jiang Xuening is happy.
Shen Jie didn't say anything, and only looked at her and smiled when they ate together in the evening, and asked her if she was happy this time.
Jiang Xuening's tail was raised to the sky.
She thought, with Wei Liang as a lesson learned, a Tanhua Lang ran to become the county magistrate, and the life was so miserable, she expected that no one would dare to provoke her in the future.
However…
Only in the past year, when the Ministry of Household was sorting out the taxes of various provinces, it was astonishing to find that Gaoyou County's land tax and grain payments had doubled compared to last year!
For the first time, Jiang Xuening began to suspect that God deliberately messed with her.
The civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty were shocked by the situation in Gaoyou County. Some people suspected that he had increased the taxes of the common people, and some suspected that there were ulterior motives in it. Naturally, Shen Jie was also greatly surprised and sent people to investigate.
The results of the investigation hit everyone in the face.
People rely on hard skills. Since Gaoyou County worked with the county master Wei Liang, two acres of rice have been grown in one mu of land. It was the first doubling of its own grain, so it paid more grain to the imperial court.
Needless to say, the capital urgently summoned Wei Liang to the capital.
If the increase of rice yield per mu in Gaoyou County can be generalized, wouldn't there be no more famine in the great Gan Dynasty
Jiang Xuening was very sad for those two days.
Thinking that Wei Liang has gained the momentum, it is definitely not a good thing for me. I was thinking about how to deal with this person, and the eunuch of the Ministry of Internal Affairs outside was carrying something in a hurry.
That was three baskets full of good Gaoyou salted duck eggs.
The eunuch said that Wei Liang, the magistrate of Gaoyou County, specially entrusted someone to honor her when she went to Beijing this time, especially to express her gratitude to the empress for her recommendation.
Jiang Xuening was simply stunned.
It was hard to tell whether it was a sarcasm or a sarcasm.
But in a word, Wei Liang didn't seem to be aware of her previous humiliation and malice at all, and simply engraved her "kindness" in his heart, so after jumping three ranks and holding an important position in the Ministry of Household, he still said that the Queen Mother was a rare occurrence. She is a good person, and others have misunderstood her too deeply. Moreover, he often sent some fresh melons and fruits into Beijing, so the imperial kitchen didn't have to buy them outside.
In this way, Jiang Xuening inexplicably captured a capable minister who was regarded by the people as a real "food and clothing parent".
She couldn't help thinking—
It's really not a misunderstanding by others about Ben Gong, Wei Liang, you have a deep misunderstanding of Ben Gong!
But anyway, the pies that fall from the sky are not picked up in vain, and Wei Liang's brain is probably only used for two things: reading and farming, and Yu Chaotang's battle is not at all sharp.
Everyone else thought he was his confidant.
Jiang Xuening also had to rack her brains to mediate for the other party, but if the other party recklessly offended someone or blocked someone else's way and was counted by others, she would have to follow her as a bull to deal with the aftermath or protect them.
Sometimes she wonders: Ben Gong and Wei Liang, who is the ancestor
In a word, over time, this man with a weak head will give up on her.
Whether it was a misunderstanding at the beginning or not, of course it doesn't matter.
No matter how the political situation changes, such people are the most favored by the superior, and the common people cannot do without it. So Jiang Xuening thought, even if she collapsed in the last life, Wei Liang's ending should not be bad.
The worst is to return to the hometown to farm.
He likes it anyway.
At this moment, Jiang Xuening stared at each other, and her mood became very complicated. After a while, she pulled the corners of her lips and smiled seemingly innocently: "Mr. Wei, let me ask you something."
Wei Liang shivered: "In, down..."
Jiang Xuening showed the patience of coaxing fools in the past life: "Who told you?"
Wei Liang wished he could dig a hole and bury himself: "Yes, I am worried about it, and no one has told me."
Jiang Xuening: "..."
Don't stop me, I want to beat this man!
Her eyelids twitched a few times, and she raised her fingers and pressed it gently, barely holding on to the kind face that was about to be torn, and praised without heart: "Mr.
Wei Liang didn't hear what she meant, thinking she was really a compliment.
He actually said with a serious face: "I don't dare to do it, and I'm just for the livelihood of the people. If the crops are abundant, but the family and country are in chaos, wouldn't the gains outweigh the losses?"
"… "
Jiang Xuening took a deep breath.
"Then you can rest assured, this girl doesn't dare to associate with the Heavenly Sect even if she is blinded by lard. Young Master Wei's worries are unfounded."
Wei Liang suddenly breathed a sigh of relief: "So, Wei is overly concerned. Since the host's girl said so, then Wei will believe it."
He took out the account book from his sleeve and handed it over.
He only said: "This is the grain account for the current season's harvest that Wei has deducted privately. I also ask the girl to forgive me for being reckless."
The account book was tied to his arm earlier, with a trace of residual warmth.
Jiang Xuening looked at him like a fool.
Wei Liang is unclear: "Is there something wrong?"
After a long time, Jiang Xuening said quietly: "You come all the way to ask this sentence, what I say, you believe what, and don't even need any evidence?"
"Oh." Wei Liang seemed to have reacted just now, but to Jiang Xuening's surprise, he didn't ask her for further evidence, but smiled at her, bowed his body, and said, "To be honest, I don't think the girl will lie. Liars. Although the tenants on the farm haven't seen the girl, the girl never treated them badly, and she didn't charge them a heavy rent. When they came down, they were in a dilemma. I just thought that a good person like the girl would really serve the heavenly religion. , I still don’t know how to choose. Now that you say that you are not a celestial religion, I dare to believe it.”
"… "
In the last life, this person was never killed by anyone, so he really relied on himself to take care of him behind his back.
Jiang Xuening stared at the sky speechless.
She decided to turn around and send a few more capable people to Wei Liang's side, so that he would not be beaten when he went out one day, and after taking this talk, she only asked, "Come here too, what tea does Young Master Wei drink?"
Wei Liang hurriedly said, "No, I still have something to do next."
Jiang Xuening thought about it: "But you want to prepare for autumn?"
Wei Liang was stunned for a moment, as if he was reacting to what "Qiu Wei" was, and then he laughed and said, "Qiu Wei doesn't matter, just take the test, but the rice has been harvested, and Wei has to go back and think about winter. Can you grow some wheat in it, or try to grow something called a potato, which grows fast and…”
Jiang Xuening felt a kind of weakness from the bottom of her heart. She only felt that thousands of birds were chirping in her ears. She felt dizzy when she heard it, and she didn't know whether she was in Shu or Jiangning. slipped.
After a long while, Wei Liang finished.
Then he asked Jiang Xuening with a bit of brilliance in his eyes: "How do you think the girl from the Dong family?"
Jiang Xuening came back to his senses, and dared not say that he didn't understand anything. Thinking about the way he dealt with this person in the previous life, he curved his lips and smiled, trying to make himself look very surprised, and said, "I think it is very good!"
Wei Liang immediately became excited: "Then I will do this when I go back!"
After saying that, he bowed and said goodbye and left, without any intention of stopping.
Lian'er Tang'er was blinded from behind.
The smile on Jiang Xuening's face was instantly pulled down, and he only asked them: "What did he say just now?"
The two looked at each other and shook their heads.
OK, I didn't understand.
What do you like.
Jiang Xuening opened the account book that Wei Liang handed over, and only glanced at the numbers written down at the end, but the two willow-like eyebrows slowly tightened: Two years have passed, and the situation on the Tartar side has also changed. There should be signs. In terms of business, although she is not as good as You Bancheng in the previous life, she doesn't need to bet on both sides like her to maintain stability. I just don't know if it's enough, and if it's too late
