Chapter 108 Dead Horses as Living Horse Doctors
"I implore you to remember that the disaster-stricken people in Zhejiang are waiting for food, and you will be accommodating." Xu Zhixian implored, "If you suspect that there is illegal salt on board, you can send someone to check it immediately. Fifty grain ships will only take a few days."

"Is your county teaching me?" Yang Tongzhi asked with displeasure on his face.

"I dare not." Xu Zhixian shook his head hurriedly.

"Hmph..." Yang Tongzhi snorted, "For the sake of the two constitutions of Zhejiang Province and Gui County, I have recently written a letter to the Suzhou government, requesting that the case should be speeded up." After a pause, he said: "As for The grain ship will also be searched as soon as possible... But this kind of fully loaded grain ship is very troublesome to check, and all the grain must be unloaded, and then the ship can be dismantled... Anyway, it will be as soon as possible." He said, getting up to see off the guests and saying: "Just go back to Guixian County and wait for the good news."

"Yes..." Xu Zhixian had no choice but to stand up and salute, then turned to Wang Xian and said, "Is there anything else you want to say?"

"Your Excellency, forgive me." Wang Xian bowed deeply to Yang Tongzhi and said, "Since the inspection of the grain ship is very troublesome, you might as well send it to Fuyang by the people from the Yan Division, and then the Yan Division will unload the ship and put it into the warehouse. In this way, it is clear at a glance whether there is any illegal salt, and you can do it twice. Doing it once and for all saves the manpower and time of the Yan Division, and also solves the urgent needs of the people in this county."

"This is a good idea. It's a good idea. It's a dilemma." Xu Zhixian praised.

But seeing that Yang Tongzhi squinted a pair of goldfish eyes, he didn't even look at Wang Xian, the meaning was obvious, do you have a place to speak here?
This kind of shame of being ignored made Wang Xian furious. He said in a muffled voice: "I heard that my lord and my Fuyang Yang family belong to the same clan. It was only after the war at the end of the Yuan Dynasty that the two branches were separated. I beg you to remember this incense and hold your hand high. Save my county's life. I, the elders of the county, will always remember your kindness..."

Wang Xian suddenly said such a strange sentence, Xu Zhixian couldn't help but secretly worried, why do you say that there is something and nothing?How could someone surnamed Yang care?

But Xu Zhixian didn't expect that Yang Tongzhi, who had been squinting his eyes all the time, suddenly opened his eyes and glanced at Wang Xian in surprise. Obviously he didn't expect this secret relationship to be detected by the other party.

But after all, it is an old Jianghu, Yang Tongzhi quickly calmed down, pulled down a fat face and said: "The law of the country is like a mountain, so there is no room for private affairs! Come here, pull him down for me, and reward him with twenty big boards!"

"Your Excellency, please calm down..." Xu Zhixian hurriedly stopped and interceded, and finally helped Wang Xian avoid this punishment.

.

The two came out of the Subsidi Yamen in a state of embarrassment, and Xu Zhixian sat on the sedan chair with a dark face, obviously very annoyed.Wang Xian's face was even darker, he got into the car with a sullen head, and followed him back to the Changzhou County Government Office.

Fortunately, both of them were old and sophisticated, and when they returned to the county government office and sat in the signing room, they had already recovered to seven or eighty-eight.

"You're still impulsive." Xu Zhixian drank five cups of tea in a row before quenching his thirst. He sighed and said to Wang Xian, "It's you who have offended Yang Tongzhi."

"Even if you kneel down and beg him, he won't be accommodating." Wang Xian said coldly: "Can't Master see it? He has already made up his mind, between the Salt Transport Branch, Suzhou Fuya, and Hangzhou Chief Kicking the ball. He is going to walk us like monkeys!"

"Your analogy...is quite vivid." Xu Zhixian said with a wry smile: "I don't know it is like this, but what can I do? The official rank crushes people to death, let alone the Salt Transportation Department that is not under the local management." Pause Said: "Nephew, what do you mean by mentioning the Fuyang Yang family?"

"I suspect that the reason why Yang Tongzhi blocked the grain ship was actually entrusted by the Yang family in Fuyang." Wang Xian said with a faint smile, "But there is no evidence, I'm purely guessing."

"You can't find any evidence for this kind of thing. If the nephew has no better way, we can only wait now." Xu Zhixian thought and thought, and decided to tell the truth: "Do you know why Yang Tongzhi is so tough? Because back then At the time of Jing Nan, he was a secretary under the command of the King of Han. He followed His Royal Highness to fight in the north and south. There was no merit but hard work. Later, when the Holy Majesty ascended the throne, the King of Han asked him to be a county magistrate. Cool and lecherous, he was impeached by the imperial censor year after year. Even so, his official status has grown bigger and bigger, and he has been promoted from the seventh rank to the fourth rank in eight years, which is completely straight up."

Although Xu Zhixian was only talking about it, Wang Xian understood what he meant. Yang Tongzhi's backstage is tough!
Everyone knows that although Emperor Yongle appointed his eldest son Gao Chi as the crown prince under the repeated persuasion of civil servants, he has always been displeased with the obese crown prince.But he did not hide his love for the King of Han at all, allowing him to have an army, stay in the capital, and give him the command of the three major battalions.

Everyone said that the emperor still prefers the King of Han.The establishment of Gao Chi as the prince is just to perfunctory the ministers. Once the opportunity is right, he will definitely be easy to save!

With His Royal Highness the King of Han backing him, that's why Yang Tongzhi dared to do anything wrong!

Xu Zhixian's subtext is, admit it, big nephew, if you can't wait, then hurry up and think of something else...

How can there be time to think of other ways?Now is the season of spring famine, except for Huguang, all the provinces of the Ming Dynasty are short of food.But it's too late to go to Huguang...

"Uncle Master has done his best, and I think my teacher will be very grateful if he knows it." Wang Xian got up, saluted Xu Zhixian sincerely and said: "Let the disciples do the rest by themselves, and don't give it to the teacher. Bob is in trouble."

Hearing the tragic tone in his tone, Xu Zhixian frowned and said: "You must not do anything stupid."

"My disciples don't do stupid things." Wang Xian smiled faintly, bowed and saluted, and left the county office.

Looking at his bleak back, Xu Zhixian couldn't help sighing secretly, what's wrong with this world, why do people who uphold the righteous way always have such a hard time walking?

.

Leaving the county government office, Wang Xian saw two well-dressed men waiting there.The two were the guards who followed Hei boy yesterday, when they saw him coming out, they stepped forward and asked, "Are you done with your work?"

"En." Wang Xian nodded.

"Then get in the car." The guard's tone was not polite, he lifted the curtain and said, "My son has been waiting for a long time."

Wang Xian obediently got into the carriage, and the carriage crossed the street, crossed the bridge, and drove into the official post in the Lion Forest.

Through the guarded door openings, came to a courtyard deep inside, and saw the black boy from yesterday, wearing a blue-sleeved arrow jacket, fighting with several guards.Although the guards must have kept their hands back, his fists and feet were full of power, and there was a sound of breaking the wind with every blow, obviously he was also a master.

At least compared to Uncle Tian Qi, this is the case.

Wang Xian waited with the guard until Hei boy knocked down all the guards, he laughed triumphantly and said, "Is my kung fu enough to walk the rivers and lakes?"

The guard lying on the ground pretended to be in pain, wouldn't it be revealing if he opened his mouth to answer?So the person next to Wang Xian complimented: "Young master is a master who can walk sideways in the rivers and lakes."

"Yeah, Brother Wang is here?" Hei boy saw Wang Xian, touched his chin subconsciously, and realized that he forgot to wear a beard.He said without changing his face: "Please come inside quickly, I'll wash your face." Of course, with his skin color, it is not difficult to not change his face.

The guards led Wang Xian into the main room and served refreshments.After a while, the boy Hei changed into a moon-white Confucian robe and came out, his face became black as iron, and he also grew a big beard...

Wang Xian stood up and greeted him as if he hadn't noticed any changes in him.

"Brother Wang, please sit down." The boy Hei stretched out his hand to give way, and he sat down on the main seat and said, "How is everything going well today?"

"Ah..." Wang Xian sighed, and said with a gloomy face, "It's okay not to mention it."

"Why, it's not going well?" Black Boy asked.

"Yesterday's prediction was really good, but Yang Tong knew that he was false and submissive, and deliberately procrastinated." Wang Xian said bitterly, and then told Hei boy what happened today.

After hearing this, Hei Xiaozi also said indignantly: "This dog official doesn't care about the lives of ordinary people at all!" Then he raised his head and asked Wang Xian, "What are you going to do? Let's just leave it at that?"

"I can't just let it go!" Wang Xian gritted his teeth and said, "But I can't let those beasts in clothes get their way, otherwise why would I have the face to go back and see Fuyang's elders!"

"What do you want to do?" Black Boy asked in a deep voice.

"I heard that last month, on behalf of the emperor, the grandson of the emperor went to Jiangxi to pay homage to Mrs. Hu. Now that he has returned from Jiangxi, he has already arrived in Hangzhou and will soon arrive in Suzhou!" Wang Xian said word by word: "When the time comes, I want to stop and sue! Go up to Heaven and listen!"

"You are so courageous!" Hei boy had a strange look on his face, and he said in surprise: "If you really make trouble with the emperor, not to mention Yang Tongzhi, his backers will also be annoyed. When the time comes, not only you will be unlucky, but even you Your county magistrate also wants to eat it!"

"I can't care about that much anymore." Wang Xianyi said angrily, "My grandpa always taught me that being an official is not a decision for the people, it is better to go home and sell sweet potatoes! Compared with thousands of human lives, the black yarn on the head is nothing ? Even if the uncle can spare his life, what else do I care about as a small official?" After a pause, he said: "Besides, he has a backer, and I have a backer!"

"Oh?" Hei boy didn't bother to ask what sweet potatoes are, and asked in surprise, "Who is your backer?"

"Naturally it is the current Emperor Yongle!" Wang Xiansu bowed in the direction of Nanjing: "The current emperor is as enlightened as Yao, Shun and Yu soup! My county magistrate and I are on business for the emperor, so naturally there is the emperor as the backer! I don't believe in the backer surnamed Yang." , can be bigger than the Holy One!"

"It's indeed your big backer..." Hei boy looked at the upright Wang Xian as if he didn't know him, and said in his heart that he didn't expect this to be a loyal minister.After a moment of silence, he said: "But there are thousands of mountains and rivers between you and the holy majesty, I am afraid that every day will not work, and the earth will not work!"

"So please help me, my lord!" Wang Xian suddenly stood up, pushed the jade pillar down the mountain, bowed down in front of Hei boy, and said sadly: "I know that my lord has already completed the task and I have no obligation to help, but I also know that my lord is kind and loyal. Love the people, and will not allow those dog officials to be lawless and harm His Majesty's people!"

Hei Xiaozi looked at Wang Xian strangely and said, "How do you know I can help you?"

When Wang Xian heard it, it was like hearing the sound of a fairy!He was just asking for advice on the basis of a dead horse as a living horse doctor, but he didn't expect that this black boy could really help!
