A great man of the Northern Song Dynasty

Chapter 918 Bao Zheng has a broad mind... Shen An is here

Bao Zheng whipped Chang Mi mindlessly, and everyone around him was stunned.

Chang Mi rolled on the ground, his screams so harsh that even a dog would turn its head.

Bao Zheng is over sixty, but under Shen An's care, his skills are still strong.

He held a wooden stick and chased him all the way, specifically targeting his legs.

"Bao Xiang... his leg is almost broken."

If the beating continued, Chang Mi might not be able to save his leg, so his attendants finally couldn't help but tried to persuade him.

Bao Zheng kicked Chang Mi and rolled him over. Then he straightened up and cursed: "Beast, if you serve as an official for one term, it's fine if you can't benefit the people. Instead, you can cause harm to the people. Why don't you, an official like you, die?"

Chang Mi was lying on the ground screaming. Someone went over to take a look and shouted: "His left leg is broken."

Everyone couldn't help but look at Bao Zheng worriedly.

Breaking an official's leg in private is a crime wherever you go!

Even if you are Zaifu, you will still have to bear the corresponding punishment for this matter.

Bao Zheng shook his head with his stick and said calmly: "It's okay, Shen An still has a few legs over there."

Well!

Everyone was puzzled, and the entourage smiled relaxedly and said: "Yes, Guixin Hou has made meritorious service again. I think he can earn a lot of credit. When the time comes, let him speak out. The officials already hate such corrupt officials. , let’s just pass it.”

If Zhao Shu heard this news, he would probably want to fly over and break Chang Mi's legs with his own hands. So Bao Zheng only needs to find an excuse to escape responsibility.

"The Marquis of Conversion?"

Some of the farmers had heard Shen An's name and introduced him: "He is a young hero. He always wins battles at a young age. He has defeated the Jiaozhi, Liao and Xixia people. Officials say He is a famous general...and he is also a great scholar, and we are all using the reading methods passed down from him."

"He is also a miracle doctor. Didn't you go to the medical center and get Jiuxin Pills for free?"

The old farmer nodded, "Yes, you can get it every month."

The farmer who spoke smiled and said: "That is the medicine that the converted princes paid for to be given to people with heart diseases for free."

The old farmer was surprised, then he clasped his hands and said piously in the direction of Bianliang: "I only hope that my family will be safe for generations to come..."

After experiencing wealth for most of our lives, we naturally know that peace is the most important thing.

Therefore, the old farmer's prayer was very pious, and Bao Zheng also nodded secretly.

"Dig a well!"

Bao Zheng waved his hand, and the farmers smiled happily and followed the craftsman to find a spot to dig.

"Mr. Bao, I'm afraid it's too late!" Seeing that Bao Zheng was kind, the old farmer expressed his worries.

"Don't worry. When the officials heard about the drought this time, they have already ordered the Third Division to prepare money and food. If the disaster is serious later, they will naturally be distributed according to the population."

Bao Zheng's words made the old farmer smile with joy, but someone next to him questioned: "Bao Gong, do you really have money and food?"

The old farmer became angry when he heard this. He took off his shoes and slapped the questioning farmer, cursing: "This is Bao Gong Bao Qingtian!"

"You don't believe what Bao Qingtian says, whose words do you want to believe?"

Bao Zheng smiled bitterly and shook his head. He felt a little ashamed of his Qingtian name.

He doesn't know how to solve crimes, but he has done some practical things for the people in the past. Especially when he was in Kaifeng Prefecture, he abolished the rule that no prisoners were allowed to meet officials, and let the people of Kaifeng Prefecture call out Bao Qingtian's name.

"Ashamed!"

He looked at these excited farmers and secretly made up his mind.

Since you call me Qingtian, I should make the decision for you.

He stepped back slightly and ordered one of his followers, who rode away together.

In the next two days, Bao Zheng stayed in Weishi, watching various places clearing ditches and digging wells.

"It is indeed Bao Qingtian!"

With Bao Zheng around, local officials didn't dare to slack off at all and almost kept working.

"Mr. Bao, another official collapsed from exhaustion."

At the edge of a newly dug well, Bao Zheng was checking the water situation. Hearing this, he frowned and asked, "Is there any danger?"

"No, it's heatstroke."

"waste!"

Bao Zheng said coldly: "I have been here since the beginning of the morning to dig wells. No matter how bright the sun is, I have never avoided it. But have I had a heat stroke? This is cowardly... What does it mean for an official to be coquettish? It means he is used to it. If you become a Taiping Officer, you will not be able to suffer hardships or be tired, just like Ouyang Xiu..."

Well!

The person who came to report him was an accompanying official from the Third Division. Even though he knew his boss's trolling nature, he was still a little embarrassed.

It was indeed comfortable for Ouyang Xiu to be an official, and he basically didn't suffer much.

But you can't say he is a peace officer, right?

"Who said Mr. Ouyang is a peace officer?"

A group of people came from behind, and someone pointed here and shouted: "Old thief, turn around, let me see your shameless old face!"

The first two were well-dressed and had an extraordinary temperament, but both had gloomy faces.

The leader has a beautiful beard, which can be called a beautiful bearded man. He has a gloomy face, and the beard adds a bit of majesty to him.

Everyone present slowly turned back to look at them, their eyes full of admiration.

How dare you call Bao Zheng an old thief and shameless... Brother, you are awesome.

"tasty."

Bao Zheng took a sip of the clear well water and said with a smile: "But remember to boil it before drinking it, otherwise it will cost a lot of money for diarrhea and diarrhea."

People around him were laughing awkwardly, but the smile on Bao Zheng's face slowly faded and he turned around.

He had to patrol the fields and help with work and encourage people when necessary, so he wore casual clothes.

"Old thief..."

The bearded brother pointed at Bao Zheng and shouted, "Where did it come from?"

There were more than 20 farmers digging wells around, and more than ten people came from the other side. They looked very aggressive, and they seemed to want to fight if they disagreed.

Bao Zheng said calmly: "Coming from the north."

For the Wei family, Bianliang is just to the north, a little to the east.

The bearded bear pointed at him and sneered: "I'll settle the score with you later."

He hurriedly walked to the well and saw the water light undulating below, and couldn't help but sigh: "No way! No way!"

The farmers were whispering to each other, gradually showing excitement, and some were even gloating about the misfortune.

The bearded brother walked over, patted Bao Zheng hard on the shoulder, and said, "Old man, remember, trouble comes from the mouth."

Bao Zheng was silent.

The word "old man" has a derogatory connotation nowadays, and it probably means some old thing or old guy.

The beautiful bearded brother left in a hurry, and some voices could be heard faintly.

"Where is that old man?"

"I don't know... I'm afraid it's in the county town."

"Go and find out when he will return to Beijing."

"..."

As the group of people walked away, a farmer said timidly: "Mr. Bao, those are Liang Ying and Huang Gu, the wealthy gentry of our Wei family."

"That man with the beautiful beard is Liang Ying. Mr. Bao, why don't you take action? As long as you say something, the villain can beat these people to death."

In the eyes of the farmers, Bao Zheng could crush those two men without any pressure, but why didn't he do it?

Several horses came quickly, but they were officials of the Wei family.

"Xiang Bao, water has been pumped out from the well in the next village, and the farmers are shouting long live the official family!"

Bao Zheng grunted, and some farmers were dissatisfied, so they talked about what happened to the two people just now.

The official immediately became furious and said, "Xiang Bao, as long as you say a word, I will immediately take people to deal with Liang Ying."

Bao Zheng has been running around in Weishi these two days, and compared with many young people at the age of more than sixty years old. His actions of leading by example were praised by the people and officials, and Bao Qingtian's voice resounded throughout the sky.

Of course, the people cheered sincerely, while most of the officials who were driven to work by Bao Zheng complained.

But there is no way! Look at Bao Zheng, he is over sixty years old, but he is more energetic than us, and he can’t bear to be lazy!

Moreover, Bao Zheng's reputation as a troll was widely circulated around the capital, and everyone felt that his behavior just now was too abnormal.

"That's all." Bao Zheng said calmly: "What you do is important, my personal honor and disgrace are nothing."

"Xiang Bao is so upright and upright, he is not as good as me."

Officials offered their hands in expressions of admiration, and they meant it.

The farmers nearby all praised it.

"Mr. Bao's ambition is higher than that of Han Gong. This prime minister can also do it."

"It was someone else who would have turned against them just now and made them kneel down and beg for mercy."

"So you can only farm here, and Mr. Bao, who is broad-minded, can serve as the Third Secretary-General."

"..."

Everyone praised him for a while, but Bao Zheng's expression remained indifferent.

Later, he went to the county town again.

The temporary residence was very simple. Weishi County assigned a small official to serve Bao Zheng. When he came back, he went to boil water.

After taking a shower and changing clothes, Bao Zheng returned to the study.

Later he summoned the accompanying officials to discuss matters.

"We're almost done here with the Wei family. We'll be ready to return to Beijing later."

Bao Zheng looked a little thinner, but he was in good spirits.

"Prime Minister Bao, although the drought was serious this time, we finally responded in time and minimized the losses. The money and food prepared by our third division probably used less than half. It can be said to be a success."

Bao Zheng nodded, and the officials became excited.

Although it was hard to follow Bao Zheng out of Beijing this time, he finally completed the task. After returning to Beijing, according to Bao Zheng's nature, he must show his merit to them.

Meritorious service is the capital for promotion, so the more the better.

Everyone was happy, and someone stood up and said, "Xiang Bao, if that's the case, can we..."

He looked at everyone and said with a smile: "Can I have some wine? It can be considered a celebration."

Everyone has been living a hard life since leaving Beijing. Not to mention drinking, we are sometimes so hungry in the wild that we wish we could get to know wild vegetables and get some to fill our stomachs.

Bao Zheng nodded, "Since you want to drink, just drink freely and go to the restaurant. I'll treat you."

What rice?

Bao Gong treats guests to drinks?

Everyone felt that they might have heard wrongly.

Some people even laughed dryly and said: "Mr. Bao, are you feeling unwell? The accompanying imperial doctor is nearby. I went to fetch him."

Today's Bao Zheng is so abnormal. According to his nature, he is more likely to spit on someone than buy him a drink. UU Reading www. uukanshu.net And everyone has heard that the two wealthy gentry of the Wei family had humiliated Bao Zheng and escaped unscathed. It was a long time coming.

Bao Zheng shook his head, "I have nothing to do, you can go and wait."

He began to write a memorial, looking serious.

This is no joke!

Everyone became happy and then stood up to leave.

When everyone went out, they met Shen An who came in covered with dust, and couldn't help but laugh.

"Is the Marquis Guixin here to look for the prime minister?"

Shen An nodded and was led in.

After exiting the gate, an official slapped his forehead and said, "I forgot to bring my money."

"Go quickly, go quickly."

Bao Zheng asked for a treat, but everyone didn't take it seriously and prepared to pool money for a drink.

The official hurried in, and when he passed by the study, he heard Bao Zheng's voice.

"One is named Liang Ying and the other is named Huang Gu. We must catch these two."

"What's wrong with them?" Shen An's voice sounded casual.

"Call me a shameless old thief."

"This is looking for death. Turn around and take them all down!"

"Well, the Wei family's official management was very bad. I wanted to do something about it, so I endured it at that time, otherwise..." Bao Zheng's voice was filled with evil spirits, and he probably wanted to chop those two people into pieces.

When the official heard this, he couldn't help but shudder, then took the money bag and went out.

"Why are you here! I've been waiting for you!"

Outside the gate, his colleagues complained. The official smiled and said a few words, and then pretended to be casual and asked: "Who knows the names of the two wealthy gentlemen who humiliated Mr. Bao?"

"I know, one is named Liang Ying and the other is named Huang Gu."

The official was stunned for a moment.

Damn it! Co-author Bao Zheng hasn’t changed at all!

What a broad-minded person...Whoever believes in it will be unlucky.

Good night everyone, and please give me your monthly tickets.
