The red building is so arrogant

Chapter 387 Want to clean, He Zengjie?
Naturally, Jiao Shun didn't mean to be ruthless, it was purely because he was so worried about the upcoming conflicts surrounding engineering, and even refused Aunt Zhao's veiled invitation, so how could he have the time to deal with Jia Huan?
After dismissing Jia Huan, he splashed ink in front of the desk and wrote a title on the left and right sides of the rice paper, with "New Deal" on the left and "Foreign Trade" on the right.

Only now did Jiao Shun truly understand why Xia Taizu made such a big situation, but ended up with his personal death in the end.

As a time traveler, one of the huge "advantages" is knowing how to "correctly" improve the system, so once you have the opportunity, you can't help but want to apply what you think is the "correct" method.

The same is true of Taizu Xia, and so is Jiao Shun.

It's just that Jiao Shun originally thought that Xia Taizu was standing too high and striding too far in the end, so he accidentally pulled his crotch.

And he himself was just playing around the edges, following the taste of the Emperor's Industrial Party, earning some political achievements and a little seniority, so how could he repeat the same mistakes as Xia Taizu?

But now it seems that even if he didn't intend to make any big announcements, but just wanted to use the wisdom of later generations to seek personal gain, he couldn't hold back these "new gadgets, new ideas" themselves would spread and ferment.

So once you start, you will be backlashed sooner or later!
Now Jiao Shun's situation is like a mouse in a bellows, pushing or pulling, the safest way to get out of this impending conflict is to stay out of it in advance.

To put it bluntly, it is trying to run out of the capital!
The imperial merchants have only just begun to connect with each other. According to the procrastinating style of doing things these years, it will take some time before he officially makes a statement to the court. If he can find a business errand from Beijing ahead of this, he will naturally be able to escape. Passed a catastrophe.

Although as the founder of the engineering school system, he will still be affected to some extent, but he will not be caught in the midst of both sides.

The ready-made reasons for business trips before them are nothing more than the two new policies and foreign trade.

The first is the New Deal.

The inspection team responsible for promoting the work-study program had already set off in early April. Due to the preparations made in advance, things have been proceeding in an orderly manner.

However, since entering June, negative feedback from various aspects has gradually increased.

The root cause is that the practice of conferring officials to graduates touched the cheese of the civil service group. After the news spread, it aroused the resistance of bureaucrats everywhere.

Thinking that at that time, because the Ministry refused to open up more craftsmen and officials, and he had slandered the ministers and servants for their obstinacy, Jiao Shun felt hot on his face—fortunately, the Ministry did not agree, otherwise, if the appointment of officials in batches was really done, only I am afraid that it is not only the Ministry of Rites who will jump out to criticize, and the wave it will trigger will far exceed the current one.

In short, the official documents of various groups complaining and complaining have been piled up more than a foot thick in the Secretary's Affairs Office. As the initiator and main promoter of this work, Jiao Shun applied to visit several key cities for investigation. Isn't it a matter of course to confirm where the problem is?
The only problem is that it still takes time to go through the process. If I haven't had time to run out of the capital, things will have already exploded...

As for foreign trade?

In May, under the initiative of 'Shi Nai', the imperial court had decided to re-determine the tariffs, and planned to send commissioners to Guangdong and Guangxi for research, fully consult the opinions of local officials and people, and collect relevant trade information.

This matter was actually Jiao Shun's idea to Shi Nai, and he didn't think about taking it over at the time, but now it seems a bit wrong.

When it comes to this matter, who else knows better than him?

What's more, when he was negotiating with the Wuxi people, he also attended as a non-voting participant, and he also proposed a way to purchase lamp oil, which greatly promoted the process of peace talks-of course, the reciprocal trade negotiated in the end must not only be lamp oil. .

In short, no one is more suitable to do this than him.

At least Jiao Shun thought so.

And because Shi Nai was going south soon—actually, he should have left the day before yesterday, but as the "payment for going to office" increased, Shi Nai insisted on finding a reason to submit a pass and waited another ten days, changing to go south on the fifth day of July.

If he could get the research done as soon as possible and catch Shi Nai's ride to the south, he would naturally be able to leave the capital in the shortest possible time.

only……

What reason should I find?

Moreover, I have never paid attention to whether the imperial court has selected and dispatched manpower. If I accidentally make an oolong, it will be too eye-catching to follow the line of the New Deal.

Jiao Shun felt restless for a while, wishing he could go to the yamen to find out.

However, he still forced himself to calm down, picked up the pen to mark the pros and cons behind the two heads, and then sketched and filled in various details in order to make the right choice.

…………

Grand View Garden, Lotus Root Champs.

Shi Xiangyun was sitting by the pond, fiddling with a light brown teddy bear, while absently looking at the school of fish outside the railing.

Hearing voices coming from the door, she raised her head subconsciously, seeing that it was the two sisters Tanchun and Xichun coming in side by side, she hurriedly got up and said, "Sister Xichun, I heard that you are going to send Miaoyu off? Did she follow you?" What did you say?"

Although Shi Xiangyun didn't have much contact with Miaoyu, and he didn't like to get close to those principles and Zen, but when he first heard that Miaoyu was kicked out of the Grand View Garden, and heard Jia Baoyu's saying "no one will guard anyone forever", he still couldn't help it. Some regret.

Although Xichun is young, she doesn't know if she is influenced by her father Jia Jing [Jia Zhen's father, who lives in a Taoist temple outside the city all the year round], and has always yearned for the life of a monk.

Especially after getting in touch with Miaoyu, she was quickly overwhelmed by her demeanor, so long before Baoyu's visit, she was already a frequent visitor to Quicui Temple.

This time it was obviously her sister-in-law Youshi who was humiliated, so Madam Wang was urged to drive Miaoyu away. Others shunned Miaoyu because of Youshi, but it was a pity that Chun, the sister-in-law, ran to see him off without even thinking about it.

It is precisely because of this that Shi Xiangyun asked this question.

Xichun shook her head slightly: "She blamed Brother Bao for being careless, and she was annoyed that the people in the house turned their faces and ruthless, and refused to pay attention to anyone with a cold face—but I heard from the accompanying nun that she was planning to go back to the Muni Academy outside the west gate to practice. If we have free time in the future, we might as well go and see her."

Before Shi Xiangyun could speak, Tanchun hurriedly said, "Fourth younger sister is talking nonsense again, can we girls go out if they want to visit friends?"

After a pause, he sighed again: "If Brother Bao hadn't turned against her, he could have gone and have a look, but now..."

As she spoke, she shook her head slightly at first, and then smiled wistfully: "But it's fine to leave, how can this garden be a place of cultivation?"

Xichun didn't know why, but nodded in agreement: "What my sister said is that if you really want to practice, you should find a clean and remote place, or drag the bowl to follow the fate, that's called practice!"

As he said that, his face was full of envy.

Shi Xiangyun laughed when he heard this, and stretched out his hand to scratch her face: "A pretty girl like you is going to beg for alms, I'm afraid you will be detained as Mrs. Yazhai."

"Humph~"

Xichun tilted her head away from her spring onion-like fingers, pouted and said, "I'm not going to seek alms from the King of the Mountain, the sky is bright and the sun is bright, how can I meet a strong man?"

"Why not?!"

Hearing this, Tan Chun couldn't help clenching his silver teeth, and said bitterly: "There are too many men with human faces and animal hearts in this world. They may be officials or businessmen, and they look decent, but secretly they are worse than robbers." Despicable and nasty!"

Hearing her empathy, Shi Xiangyun and Xichun looked at each other, and were about to ask a few questions carefully, when they heard the sound of footsteps outside.

Immediately after, Jia Baoyu pushed the door open and came in, sweating profusely and asked: "Sister Xichun, did Miaoyu say anything when she left?!"

But it turned out that when he returned home he was devastated, no matter how much She Yueqiuwen tried to persuade him, it was useless, and in the end Xiren returned home, saying that Miss Four had sent Miaoyu away, or maybe she knew something else, which made Jia Baoyu woke up suddenly and hurried to find it.

After his interruption, the two of them naturally forgot to explore the third sister's thoughts, and hurriedly repeated what they just said to Baoyu.

When Baoyu heard that Miaoyu was still going back to the Muni Temple outside the west gate to practice, he was overjoyed and said, "Since I know where she is staying, I will go to the gate tomorrow to make amends!"

Tanchun felt that since the two had fallen out, it was not easy to rush to the door again.

But why does Jia Baoyu care about this?
Isn't it just a shameless apology?He is very clear about this matter!

The fault was that Sister Lin wanted a single-choice answer, not a sincere apology. He was afraid that Chengmen Lixue was still in the Xiaoxiang Pavilion at the moment.

Seeing this, Tanchun hurriedly stopped him and said, "Brother, don't be too busy. Although the wife drove Miaoyu away mainly because of Mrs. Zhen, she was also worried that you would get too close to her and be obsessed with those rational and Zen ideas—you run to see her at this time." , Isn’t it hitting the muzzle of the gun? When the time comes, my wife will blame me, I’m afraid it’s not good for you or her.”

Hearing this, Jia Baoyu had no choice but to stop thinking about going to ask for a crime tomorrow, and instead discussed with Tanchun when it would be more appropriate to visit again.

The two discussed it back and forth, but after all, they were trapped in the gate of this mansion since they were young, and they inevitably had a half-knowledge about the things outside.

For example...

Those who were just kicked out by the Rongguo Mansion, and who were kicked out because they offended the Ningguo Mansion, how dare the Muni Academy take them in at will?

…………

Outside the gate of the Muni Temple.

A middle-aged nun said to Miaoyu and the others who had just been welcomed in by the abbot in person and hurriedly kicked out by herself through the crack of the door: "The abbot said that the small temple can't accommodate the real Buddha, so please find another place to practice—as for In the future, we will take care of the tomb of the respected master, so there is no need for laymen to worry about it."

In order to clear the relationship, even Miaoyu was deprived of the right to visit Master's grave.

The little nun next to Miaoyu blushed angrily, and cursed loudly: "Shameless thief nun, how many times has the teacher helped you, you are just like this..."

"Amitabha."

Miaoyu interrupted her with a Buddha's name, turned around and left without saying a word.

"Pooh!"

The little nun spat into the courtyard unhappily, and hurriedly turned her head to chase after her.

When they got back to the carriage, the little nun asked Miaoyu again with a bitter face, "Senior sister, what should we do now?"

This little nun was actually Miaoyu's maid, but Miaoyu refused to let her call her young lady, young lady, and she was forced to change into a nun's attire, so she took advantage of the opportunity to call her senior sister.

Miaoyu Gujing said calmly: "Find an inn to rest first, and then..."

"That can't be done!"

In the middle of talking, he was interrupted by the coachman, and he said in a strange way: "We were ordered to send the girl back, but we didn't say we were going to run around."

This coachman is from Rongguo Mansion, knowing that Miaoyu was kicked out by the mansion, naturally he will not be polite to her again.

Miaoyu gave him a cold look, and said with prudence: "Unload the luggage."

Then he closed his eyes and turned the rosary, and ignored the coachman while muttering something.

The little nun and the two servants unloaded their luggage, watched the carriage of Rongguo Mansion drive away, and then complained: "Why should I do anything, Senior Sister? Wouldn't it be convenient to give him a few taels of silver to drive us to the inn? Now... ..."

Miao Yu stared at her intently, she immediately died down, and said instead: "Then I'll ask the mothers to hire another car."

Miaoyu didn't answer, she lowered her eyes again, hiding the shame and resentment in her eyes.

The little nun discussed it with the two maids, and one of them with good legs and feet volunteered to hire a carriage.

The little nun reported the matter, seeing Miaoyu hanging her head in silence, she couldn't help but suggested: "Senior sister, there is nothing good in this capital, why don't we go back to the south..."

Before she could finish speaking, Miaoyu vetoed without raising her head: "Master's last words are still here, how can I leave Beijing?"

Miaoyu was originally a lady from the official family in the south. She was sent to the temple to seek the protection of the Buddha because of her poor health since she was a child. Later, she followed her master to Beijing.

Originally, after her master died, she was supposed to return to her roots.

But before his death, Master asked her to stay in the capital, so she agreed to move to the family temple in Rongguo Mansion.

The little nun said with a bitter face: "But I just said that the monastery would not dare to take in the people who were kicked out by the Rongguo Mansion just now. We can't stay in the inn all the time, right?"

"It's okay."

Miaoyu had already made up her mind: "When I sell some furniture, let's find a small temple that is not well managed, and we won't have to look at other people's faces in the future."

…………

at the same time.

When Youshi returned to Ningguo Mansion, he ordered someone to call Jia Qiang, and asked straight to the point, "I heard you don't want to go to the south?"

Jia Qiang was taken aback for a moment, and then hurriedly gave a deep salute: "My nephew really can't stand the humid weather in the south, so I ask my wife to spare me this trouble!"

In fact, the real reason was that the little opera singer who had an affair with Jia Qiang was ill recently, and Jia Qiang was reluctant to leave her at this time, so she tried everything possible to stay.

But You Shi didn't bother to pay attention to these details, and directly threw out the terms of exchange: "This matter is not difficult, as long as you do something for me, I will tell your uncle to let him spare you the errand."

Jia Qiang was overjoyed when she heard the words. Although he had never participated in the struggle between Jiao Shun and Youshi, he also knew that the status of this aunt was very different now. If she was willing to speak out for herself, Jia Zhen would probably have to compromise.

So he quickly saluted again: "Auntie, just give orders! Don't say one thing, as long as you can stay in the capital, you can do everything!"

"It doesn't need that much."

Youshi said coldly: "Have you heard about the vicious nun? It's okay for this bastard to talk about scheming things, but he even mentioned Brother Xiong in his words--although she has been kicked out of Rongguo Mansion now , but my breath hasn’t subsided yet.”

Although Jia Qiang is the elder brother of the Duke's family, she has always learned some crooked ways from Jia Zhen and Jia Rong. After hearing this, she immediately understood, and said quickly: "My nephew understands, I will try to find out how to get my aunt out Get rid of this bad breath!"
