When the night came, Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan, who were awake, took two of them and went out without forgetting to bring their gifts.
While walking on the road, Wang Juan asked Zhang Xiaobao, "What do you plan to give him food? If good things are okay, he has to buy things from ordinary people's homes, can he eat them?"
"I want to see what kind of person he is, and it's worth noting that I'm not worthy of my attention to him. If you just don't fear power, even you and I don't look down on you, I will help him and give it to him. Go to Yushitai and let him do things there. There must always be different voices in this country.
If he just acted and didn't care about the people so sincerely, then there would be no need for him to stay in this position anymore. First he offended Grandpa Bi, and then offended you and me. How could he let him go. "
Zhang Xiaobao explained to Wang Juan.
Wang Juan opened the box held by the person next to him again, and said with a smile: "You are a powerful person, very unreasonable, and not a good person. If someone offends you a little bit, you will make your family feel uncomfortable."
"I have the ability to be powerful, why don't I be powerful? What's more, I don’t have power over the people. Li Longji is not powerful? Zhang said that he is not powerful, and our family’s Yao Chong is not powerful? I really have to judge this world according to what you said. Shangfan is a good person who has some abilities. Why don't you go and talk to him, I'll be outside waiting for the good news to bring you?"
Zhang Xiaobao really did what he thought. If Feng Changgong makes him unsatisfied, he will clean up the people. Of course, he will not directly seek Li Longji's impeachment, but through other means. After all, he needs to find a good reason for impeachment.
In other words, Wang Juan said that she is a powerful person. Looking at the night, she said: "The night here is really good. It seems better than in Shuzhou. Of course it is not as good as Sanshui County. If you can live in Rushui A good restaurant was built in the place, and then water was drawn from the side to form a small lake.
At this night, the stars are sparse and the boats are illuminated. It is really a beautiful place. Find more craftsmen to help out a small bridge connected to each other. I think the tax collected in one night is not a small amount. This place will soon become Shangxian. Many people break their heads and come here, and Feng Changgong will be promoted. "
As Wang Juan said, she really couldn’t think of the fact that the three biggest officials in Xincai County really wanted to turn Zhongxian into Shangxian and then get promoted, but the three of them didn’t have the kind of predecessors like her and Zhang Xiaobao. The ability to accumulate experience, I don’t know that many times, after two people see a certain situation, they can immediately find a feasible model to apply.
At this time it was night, and the front door was closed. Unless there is something particularly important, you can go to the front and knock on the Deng Wen Drum. Otherwise, no one will go to the front, Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan came to the back door of the Yamen. , People knocked on the door, saying that they wanted to meet the magistrate Feng.
Feng Changgong didn't make any excuses for not seeing him this time, but he didn't come out to welcome him. He sat in the study room and asked someone to come over and bring people in.
When Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan entered the study room, Feng Changgong was holding the book and was reading it. He didn’t know if he could read it. Anyway, Zhang Xiaobao didn’t think he could read the contents of the book, because it was just a small oil lamp. Far away, I can't see the words in the book at all.
"I have seen the magistrate of Feng, but I didn't expect that the magistrate of Feng is still studying poetry and books. It is respectable and respectable." Zhang Xiaobao asked to send the box to the other party's subordinates, and he spoke to Feng Changgong.
He is younger than his biological age, but at this time he has to learn to speak like an adult. This is not for juniors to meet the elders. They belong to the same level. Everyone is an official.
Wang Juan also said at this time: "I wonder if the magistrate Feng has used dinner, I will also bring a few side dishes to Master Feng."
When talking about side dishes, Wang Juan wanted to laugh. The things Zhang Xiaobao bought at a high price are really great.
Feng Changgong couldn’t pretend not to see people this time, as if he had just discovered Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan, he hurriedly put down his book and said, “I didn’t expect Wang Xiancheng and Zhang Master to visit late at night. , Someone reported that the officer saw that the sky was over, and thought about coming tomorrow, but the two came unexpectedly.
I also brought food, so I really feel sorry for it. Come on, please sit down, come here, have tea, two please. "
Said to sit down, instead of the chairs Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan usually use, they were sitting on a futon. Feng Changgong didn't own a chair. He just put a small table in front of him.
Soon, the servant brought tea to Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan, and also added a small table in front of the two of them, and stepped back respectfully and closed the door.
Zhang Xiaobao picked up the tea bowl and held it up without drinking. He looked at Feng Changgong and said, "The magistrate of Feng County is really dedicated to the people. How did you look at the water during the day?"
"Oh, it's difficult. The county lacks water. There is only such a river running through. It is obvious who is not enough. But I can't think of a good way for a while. I can only look at it every day and think about it as much as possible. The idea of making people's life easier, the county will be content.
I heard people say that Master Zhang is resourceful, and I wonder if he can help me think about it? This county first thanked the people in the county, oh, and Wangxian Cheng, I also want to help. "
Feng Changgong heard the condemnation in Zhang Xiaobao's words, but he didn't care.
Zhang Xiaobao's impression of him suddenly deteriorated. What's the reason for this? Is it because he looked down on himself and Wang Juan, so he couldn't make up his mind
Looking at Wang Juan and seeing Wang Juan's eyes staring at the tea bowl, Zhang Xiaobao said, "When I came, I saw that Rushui River was still good. It shouldn't be short of water. It's impossible that one piece of Ru water can't supply one. Xincai County? To tell the truth, Baoxin County is the one who is really short of water. This time we came here to discuss water diversion with the magistrate Feng.
Once it is introduced, not only will the people in Xin County have a better life, but also the people in Xincai County. What does Feng County Commander think? "
Zhang Xiaobao didn't plan to go in circles anymore, he pointed out his intentions directly, and wanted to see how Feng Changgong answered correctly.
Wang Juan didn’t look at the tea bowl this time, and added: “The magistrate of Feng County may not have thought of the benefits of diverting water to Baoxin County to Xincai County, so I talked to the magistrate of Feng to lead a river. , So that the model place in Baoxin County can welcome more guests.
Some people come from Rushui and can go directly to the place. If there are more guests, you can build a place to play in the two counties or where the water diversion is from Rushui, so that those who have visited the model can find new places to play. At that time, not only will it be able to provide more money for the people who cannot find work in your county, but also increase the tax revenue of your county.
You can even build a night market there for people to trade, and find commemorative handmade products in your county, which can be used for trading and prosper the economy of the two counties. If you can still... ”
"Wangxiancheng’s idea is good, but many things can be done more than just a good-looking idea. There are too many things that are related to each other. There are too many people between the two counties, but With so many people coming and going, it is not easy to manage. There are not enough government officials in this county, and it is difficult, difficult to let Baoxin County government officials come to this county to do things.
Wang Xiancheng just said that he would return food to the official. It just so happened that the official is a bit hungry now, so it's better to taste it together. When the official goes to Baoxin County, he will definitely bring food to both of you. "
Not waiting for Wang Juan to finish the specific plan, Feng Changgong suddenly interrupted Wang Juan very rudely, and when the topic was changed, he talked about food.
Wang Juan was interrupted and stopped speaking, and motioned to Zhang Xiaobao to say that she was playing with tea while drinking tea.
Zhang Xiaobao had a worse impression of Feng Changgong in his heart. He waited for Feng Changgong’s subordinates to help deliver the food brought by the two of them to Feng Changgong’s little boy, and said, “It’s not a good food, just passing by a house by accident. By the way, I bought it from his house, and I thought we had used it before, so we stopped eating."
"The official is the only one." Feng Changgong didn't know what was in the box. He opened the first box. Inside was a rice dumpling. To be precise, it was vegetable dumplings. The wild vegetables and noodles were pasted in the pot. Yes, it's still a bit muddy.
Feng Changgong was upset when he saw the rice ball, thinking that Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan came over to watch their jokes on purpose. They took off the top layer of the rice ball, revealing the wild vegetable soup below, which is really wild vegetables, and even a little oil star. I haven't seen it.
Feng Changgong glanced at Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan, did not say anything, and continued to open the second box. This time it was not wild vegetables. At least the one above was not but two stir-fried dishes. The first one was four sparrows. Coming out, especially the head, the second insect that didn't eat too much, the larva of the silkworm, was green and a little dark, and it was disgusting to look at.
Remove the upper layer again, revealing the two dishes below, one is a wild vegetable with a little fat, and the other is a wild vegetable that can always be seen by the river.
There are four dishes and one soup, plus the staple rice dumplings. Looking at these things, Feng Changgong asked with a calm face: "I don't know what Zhang Zhubu and Wang Xiancheng mean? Isn't it possible to use these dishes to entertain the officials? "
"Legger Feng said that he was not used to eating. How can I have a pastime. If the magistrate Feng doesn't eat, it can be delivered to the two of me. It just happened that I had never rushed to eat at night."
Zhang Xiaobao already had 60% of the thoughts in his mind that Feng Changgong should be cleaned up. This dish is not eaten, especially the sparrows and silkworms, but they are all good things, and wild vegetables are also green foods.
When I went to buy it, the family still said that he had caught up with the good times and could eat so many good things. Finally, he gave Feng Changgong another chance to see if he could grasp it.
After speaking, Zhang Xiaobao brought the food by himself. There was only a pair of chopsticks. He clamped it and fed Wang Juan. The two ate happily in front of Feng Changgong. After a few bites, Zhang Xiaobao said to Feng Changgong:
"The magistrate Feng may think this dish is not good, but when the officer buys it at the people’s home, it is the best thing in their home. Except for the skill of frying, it’s not as good as the chef. Others are really good, magistrate Feng. What do you think? The official felt that since the people can eat, the officials can also eat it. I don't know if the people are suffering, how can they do things for the people?"
"Yes, you just take it back and eat slowly. As for the faculty member who can't do things, I don’t have to worry about the master Zhang. Don’t the master Zhang think that it’s too lenient? It’s late at night, and I forgive me for the hard work of the day and can’t accompany me anymore. Two, go slowly."
Feng Changgong's face was so dark that it was about to rain, and he was told a lesson today by a little boy with no hair, and started to drive people away.
Zhang Xiaobao brought the two boxes over again, and filled the unfinished meal in the same way, and said to Wang Juan, "There is a midnight snack in the evening. Since the county magistrate Feng is very tired, it is better for me to wait and then go back."
"Alright, County Magistrate Feng, I have disturbed you by coming today." Wang Juan picked up a box and said to Feng Changgong. Before leaving, he looked at the Magistrate Feng with pity.
She admitted that Zhang Xiaobao's management was indeed too wide, and his hand stretched out too long, but what about that, Zhang Xiaobao is this character, let alone who has stipulated that others are not allowed to take care of it? Yu Gong is for the people, and Yu Si expresses the evil anger that has been waiting for half an hour during the day.
The two people left Feng Changgong's home without anyone seeing each other, and walked on the road without street lights, and the two people behind did not break the tranquil atmosphere.
After going out for a hundred steps, Wang Juan asked Zhang Xiaobao: "When will you start?"
"I'll do it tomorrow. Since he can't be a good official and he won't let us divert water, he should replace it with a good one. Why do you say that my hand stretches out long?" Zhang Xiaobao said dissatisfiedly.
"It's not long, not long at all. It's nothing more than using the identity of the master book of one county to teach the magistrate of another county. How can this be called a long, then what were you before?"
Wang Juan said with a smile.
"That's it, it's not long at all. Tomorrow Li Longji wants to be an official historian. Let me see who still says that. As the master book, he has the responsibility of monitoring. Regardless of which county he is in, he has always It’s not just a matter of hand length that someone can hunt across provinces.”
Zhang Xiaobao strengthened his belief in continuing to extend his hand.
Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan left. Feng Changgong sat alone in the study, but he became more and more angry. Not only was he questioned today, but also made people play tricks. Who would dare to treat himself like this in Xincai County
"No, this matter absolutely can't just leave it like that, I, I... I just don't let you lead the river." Feng Changgong patted the small table and said angrily. He originally wanted to send someone to arrest the two, and then do a good job. After tidying up, thinking of a hundred guards on horseback that Wang Juan had brought, the idea was dispelled again.
He could not sleep anymore when he was going to go to bed, so he ordered someone to bring the master book and the county condolences to discuss matters, so he had to trouble Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan.
Feng Changgong's call was really about the time. The director of Xincai County and the county consolation hadn't rested either. The two were gathering for a drink. They happened to arrive together, and they were also brought to the table.
"The adults don't want to rest early?" As soon as he entered the study, the master book asked Feng Changgong.
"I wanted to sleep, but I almost died of anger and couldn't sleep anymore." Feng Changgong repeated what Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan had just said to the two people. After speaking, they were still breathing out, obviously out of breath. Bigger.
"It's unreasonable, they actually came to the door, it's really a bit deceitful, sir, it's better to think of a way to teach them, I will let the servants investigate."
The master book was also very angry, and he was about to leave while he was talking, but his walking speed was not fast, giving people a time to stop.
Sure enough, the county consolation stopped him, "How can the Yamen be able to beat them? It should be considered in the long term, so as not to be taken advantage of and make the major things in Xincai County fall short."
"That's it, come, drink, and discuss while eating." Feng Changgong can't really let the master book out. If this kind of conflict really occurs, the first unlucky person is to wait for others.
After the master book sat down again angrily, Feng Changgong said: "The first thing to do is not to let Baoxin County draw the water there. The second is to quickly make up the population of the county to avoid it. There are many dreams in the night, as for the third... You two should also think about it."
Feng Changgong couldn't think of two things.
He couldn't think of it. The master book and the county comforter also didn't have any good ideas. Usually the way to deal with people, the two felt that dealing with Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan would not seem to have any effect. There are people in the capital, although the three of them are also the same. There is a backer, but your own backer can't take the initiative to provoke each other because of such a thing.
After eating for a while, the owner finally came up with an idea that he thought was not bad, and said to Feng Changgong and the county: “It’s better to send someone to the county and the surrounding counties of Baoxin County to say that Baoxin County wants to become a state. Zhifu, Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan feel that their officials are too small, and I believe that someone will impeach them up."
"If it's wrong, how can others believe it? Or change another one. It's better to say that Baoxin County wants to divert water to make others run out of water, and if you don't plan to continue mulberry seeding, you just want to do business."
The county consolation denied the master book's method and put forward his own idea.
As a result, Feng Changgong and the main book shook their heads at the same time, and Feng Changgong said, "This is not true, and it will have no effect on other counties. Besides, others are not stupid. How could they not know that Rushui's water is enough."
After saying this, Feng Changgong's eyes suddenly lit up and he said, "I have a way to come over."
When the three people worked out a solution, Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan also returned to the yard. Zhang Xiaobao sat there thinking for a while, and told the guard standing at the door: "Find two more people over here, I have something to let you go. Do it, remember to conceal it when you do it, and don't let other people discover it."
The guard agreed and went back to find ten people, surrounded by Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan, ready to listen to the young masters coming up with bad ideas, all of them looked very excited, and Wang Juan did the same, hoping to hear interesting things from Zhang Xiaobao's mouth.
