Imperial County Magistrate

Chapter 112 Zhang Sheng arrives in Yuanjiang

Zhang Sheng!

This former scholar in the world was able to figure out the answer to the cigarette lock, pond and willow mark in just one or two minutes, and was a truly talented scholar.

At this moment, his whole body was trembling with excitement and he kept repeating what Zhao Kang just said.

"Establish a heart for heaven and earth! Establish a destiny for the living and the people! Continuing the unique knowledge of the past saints! Creating peace for all generations! Is this really what we scholars can do?"

At this moment, Zhang Sheng felt as if he had lived in vain for the past six or seventy years. At this moment, he seemed to have found the value of his existence!
Zhao Kang offered a mouthful of chicken soup: "Just think! Nothing is impossible!"

After being drunk by the old man, Zhang Sheng stared blankly at Zhao Kang and walked directly off the hospital bed. His eyes were as excited and fanatical as a Christian seeing Jesus or a monk seeing Tathagata Buddha!

"Then sir, what should I do?"

Seeing that the old man had taken the bait, Zhao Kang smiled and said, "It's very simple. I will take you to a place when you feel better."

"Where is that?"

"Yuanjiang County."

Her Majesty the Empress behind her realized that something was wrong. This guy Emotion wanted to kidnap Mr. Zhang away!
Immediately said: "Mr. Zhang!"

Zhang Sheng ignored it and just looked at Zhao Kang: "Sir, where is Yuanjiang County?"

"That's a good place, a place where you can use your talents and knowledge." Zhao Kang continued to lie.

Xiao Linglong couldn't listen anymore: "Mr. Zhang, please take a good rest after waking up. Zhao Kang, come with me."

"Sir, please rest first. We will talk later."

Seeing Her Majesty the Empress going out, Zhao Kang quickly followed.

After a few days, Xiao Linglong seemed to have stopped pursuing what happened that day in the imperial study. When no one was around, Her Majesty the Empress turned around and looked at Zhao Kang: "What do you want to do! Take Mr. Zhang to Yuanjiang County?"

"That's for sure."

Zhao Kang said matter-of-factly: "Since Li Muqing left him alone and I saved him, I naturally have to make the best use of him."

"It was my imperial physician who saved him, not you!"

Xiao Linglong corrected her, and then said: "No, I want to confer an official title on Mr. Zhang and put him in the Imperial College!"

"It's all the same. What difference do we have between you and me?" Zhao Kang said with a smile.

Xiao Linglong glared: "Are you itchy?"

Zhao Kang said hurriedly: "No, your Majesty, please listen to me. Mr. Zhang is not suitable for being an official at all. You might as well leave him to me. I have important things to do."

"You said it's not suitable if it's not suitable?" Xiao Linglong snorted.

Zhang Sheng was so knowledgeable that he was a treasure no matter where he went. Xiao Linglong was secretly happy when Li Muqing and others didn't mention him when they left earlier.

I was thinking about how to keep Zhang Sheng, but the result was good.

Before he could take action, Zhao Kang jumped in line first!
"Your Majesty, think about it. Mr. Zhang came to participate in a civil war for state affairs. He must be a man who deeply loves his country."

Zhao Kang said softly: "With such a patriotic sentiment, do you think he will stay in Qianguo and serve as an official? It is simply impossible."

Xiao Linglong was stunned. She really hadn't thought about this problem. Now when Zhao Kang mentioned it, she realized that it was really such a thing.

"Then you, he is willing to take him to Yuanjiang County?" Apparently Her Majesty the Empress is still a little unconvinced.

Zhao Kang chuckled: "Didn't you see everything just now?"

Xiao Linglong was so angry that she wanted to stamp her feet. Mr. Zhang just ignored her, so the answer was obvious.

Zhao Kang said: "So he will go to Yuanjiang County, but he will never become an official in the imperial capital."

"Then what are you going to do?" Xiao Linglong was a little depressed.

Zhao Kangdao: "The schools in the county have almost been built. I plan to let Mr. Zhang go there to impart knowledge and educate people." Xiao Linglong muttered: "Just teach and educate people? This is too wasteful."

"This is not a waste, and Mr. Zhang might like it very much." Zhao Kang smiled.

In the end, Her Majesty the Empress couldn't compete with Zhao Kang, so she could only watch the treasure in her heart shouting at Zhao Kang one after another.

Rested for three days.

After Zhang Sheng recovered a little, he immediately found Zhao Kang, hoping that Zhao Kang could take him to take a look at Yuanjiang County.

Zhao Kang didn't say anything and reported to Xiao Linglong.

Her Majesty the Empress quickly asked someone to escort them. After all, the two of them were a national master and a world official. If something happened on the way, they would be killed by bandits and bandits.

Xiao Linglong didn't even have time to cry.

Under Zhang Sheng's urging, they worked hard all the way and arrived at the Yuanjiang boundary in two days.

Like Xiao Linglong and others who arrived in Yuanjiang County for the first time, Zhang Sheng was also shocked by the flat road.

Glancing at Zhao Kang beside him, the latter smiled and said, "Mr. Zhang, this road was built by leading the county people when I was an official in Yuanjiang County. It took a lot of effort."

"It can be called uncanny workmanship."

Zhang Sheng exclaimed.

As the carriage arrived at Yuanjiang County, someone received the news early and was greeted by Gao Quan, who was in charge of Yuanjiang's human resources.

In addition, there are hundreds of county residents.

"Master is back!"

"The master is back! Go and call someone to greet him!"

Zhang Sheng was a little surprised when he heard the enthusiastic shouts of each county citizen.He hadn't seen this kind of love between officials and people for a long time.

"It seems that Mr. Zhao is very popular in Yuanjiang County." Zhang Sheng thought to himself.

After getting off the carriage, he entered the city amidst the welcome of everyone. As far as he could see, it was rich and prosperous, and the people lived and worked in peace and contentment. Zhang Sheng was shocked again.

Zhao Kang took Zhang Sheng to introduce the regional industries in Yuanjiang County one by one, skipping of course Yihong Hospital and the Health Center.

Then he took Zhang Sheng to textile factories and other places.

The more Zhang Sheng watched, the more frightened he became. He was extremely shocked by the foot-operated spinning wheel and the glass-firing process that he had never heard of.

Arriving in front of the largest building in the center of the city, Zhang Shengdu was still a little unfinished.

"Mr. Zhao, where is this? Yuanjiang School? Is it a private school?"

Zhao Kang nodded: "Yes, Mr. Zhang, this is the last place I want to take you to visit, and this is where I hope you can stay."

Approaching the school, school is not over yet. The students are all reading and listening to the scholar.

Zhang Sheng couldn't help but be surprised: "There are so many students, and there are so many noble families in Yuanjiang County?"

In this day and age, reading?

Only wealthy merchants can have such rights, not even poor families!
Naturally, there is no such thing as a noble son from a poor family.

In Zhang Sheng's opinion, Yuanjiang County is so prosperous, probably because there are many wealthy people gathered here.

However, at this time, Zhao Kang beside him shook his head: "Mr. Zhang, you are wrong."

"If there is any wealthy family in our Yuanjiang County, it is me. All the students in the school are the children of the people of Yuanjiang County! No matter rich or poor, they can come to this school to study and learn calligraphy to gain knowledge."

"As long as they can learn it, I, Zhao Kang, will continue to support them until they can win the exam!"
