There is something different in the North and in the Central Plains. In addition to being an administrator, the King of Zhenbei is also a belief.
Now that they heard that Shen Lang was King Zhenbei's man, the people's favorable impression of Shen Lang increased dramatically.
People were saying that even if something happened in Muyun City, the prince would still protect them.
This is a big taboo for rulers!
Ji Wendi had already decided on the tactics and had begun making arrangements. The county magistrate brought this news to Ji Wendi.
"Your Highness, it's being said outside that the grain was given to them by the King of Zhenbei. Shen Lang is actually promoting the King of Zhenbei while he's doing things. He's using your Highness' grain to boost the King of Zhenbei's prestige."
"Also, Shen Lang brought scouts with him, so he must have some mission. After arriving in Kangcheng, he ignored the mission in Echeng. This is ignoring the military orders of the Great Zhou, and his heart is only on the King of Zhenbei!"
Ji Wendi's face looked very ugly.
He knew that Shen Lang was Zhao Huaibei's man and was born in the Zhenbei Palace, and was very loyal to Zhao Huaibei.
I never thought that after giving Shen Lang an official position and money and food, he would repay me in this way.
As for Shen Lang's military order, he himself said that it was Ji Wendi who kept Shen Lang here, so this matter could not be used as a point to attack Shen Lang.
But putting the two points together, it’s hard to say what Shen Lang is thinking.
"You go down first." Ji Wendi said with a serious face.
"Yes." The county magistrate was delighted when he saw Ji Wendi's expression was not right, and he quickly retreated.
"Uncle Wen, isn't Shen Lang a little ungrateful?" Ji Wendi asked in a deep voice.
A figure appeared beside Ji Wendi. It was the powerful man in the Divine Mysterious Realm who had been hiding.
"Your Highness, Shen Lang is a capable person." Uncle Wen said softly: "According to the transportation speed that Your Highness had thought of before, if the county magistrate reached 20%, then Shen Lang reached 80%, which is four times faster!"
"People were dying all the time before, but after Shen Lang took over, the atmosphere was completely changed in less than two hours."
"I have witnessed Shen Lang's ability..." Ji Wendi touched his chin.
After the data was improved, what was displayed on the sand table became very clear.
I saw that this sand table was not an ordinary sand table, but a magical tool.
There are countless red dots in the city on the sand table, which represent human blood. The transportation speed was extremely slow before, but now it has become faster. This can be seen as Shen Lang's credit.
but!
"This man is disloyal!" Ji Wending gritted his teeth and said, "I gave him so much, but his heart is still with the King of Zhenbei."
"These grains belong to the imperial court, not to the King of Zhenbei!"
He didn't care about this little bit of food, but he cared whether Shen Lang was really loyal to him.
“Your Highness, if Shen Lang can be easily won over and easily win back his loyalty, would Your Highness really dare to use him?” Uncle Wen also felt a sense of appreciation for Shen Lang’s talent.
He was able to capture a general and put the logistics of the city in order in a short period of time, which shows that this person has more talents than that.
His Highness the Sixth Prince has come out with great difficulty. If he fails to win over some talents before returning, it would be a waste of time.
"Uncle Wen means..." Ji Wendi frowned slightly.
"The more loyal a person is to his old master, the harder it is to impress him." Uncle Wen said, "Your Highness has awarded Shen Lang an official position. Shen Lang has not been corrupt, has not violated the law, and has done his job with all his heart."
"Although he is still promoting the King of Zhenbei at this time, there are some problems, but if this person is really conquered by Your Highness in the future, then how he treats the King of Zhenbei, won't he also treat Your Highness the same way?"
Ji Wendi suddenly understood.
Damn it, I was a little impulsive just now and almost lost the big picture!
I just don't believe it. I can't control you?
"Uncle Wen, what should I do now?" Ji Wendi asked.
"As a superior, you should give rewards when they are due and punish when they are due. Thunder, lightning, rain and dew are all grace from the emperor." Uncle Wen said, "We must let him know that Your Highness can give him a lot, but can also take back everything, even his life."
"Why not call Shen Lang to see if he has any unfulfilled wishes for his old master?"
"When the time comes, it will all depend on your Highness's thoughts on how to help him fulfill his wish."
…………
Soon, Shen Lang was called to Ji Wendi's office.
"grown ups……"
Shen Lang, an outsider, still doesn't know Ji Wendi's identity.
He had been busy these past two hours and had no time to think about those fancy things.
This is the difference between Shen Lang and the county magistrate.
What the county magistrate saw was Shen Lang fighting for power, while what Shen Lang saw was that ordinary people were not having a good life.
This is also a common problem among modern people. They live a miserable life themselves, but cannot bear to see the sufferings of others.
"It's being said outside that you're an official of the King of Zhenbei. Now you're distributing the court's grain. Everyone is praising the King of Zhenbei's merits." Ji Wendi was writing. He didn't even raise his head when Shen Lang came in.
When Shen Lang heard this, his pupils shrank slightly.
Damn it?
what's the situation?
Why are you singing praises to the King of Zhenbei? Isn't this hurting me?
For example, if I were a surrendered minister, then after I did something, everyone would help me miss my old master, which would be pushing my father into the fire pit!
"Sir, I don't know about this. Someone must have framed me..." Shen Lang said hurriedly, "Second Master's heart is in the Great Zhou, otherwise he wouldn't have asked me to send the training method of the Red Flame Dragon Riders to Chang'an before he died!"
"Even if I want to publicize it, it's to publicize the merits of the court..."
"So, it wasn't you who did it?" Ji Wendi raised his head, as if he wanted to see through Shen Lang's heart.
"It's not you, your subordinate!" Shen Lang shook his head decisively.
Ji Wendi didn't say anything.
In his eyes, it doesn't matter who did this. It's just something that fools casually praise and can be changed in an instant.
The common people are all blindly obedient. They believe whatever the scholars and officials say.
What Ji Wendi cared about was that Shen Lang always called himself the Second Young Master.
"Shen Lang, Zhao Huaibei asked you to deliver the training method to Chang'an. You are fulfilling this duty, which is loyalty." Ji Wendi said softly: "Then is there anything you want to do for Zhao Huaibei?"
"This..." Shen Lang was stunned.
Shen Lang's mind raced. When he browsed the employment guide for college students before, all he saw were videos about social etiquette. He never thought that he would use them at this time.
"Alas..." Shen Lang said that the character of this loyal guard has been established and it is impossible to deny it even if he wants to.
"It seems that she is pregnant, but you can tell me if you want to." Ji Wendi said.
"Your Highness, I want to retrieve the head hanging on the wall of Muyun City and bury the Second Young Master properly."
This statement was made from the heart. Shen Lang came out this time because he really wanted to bring back Zhao Huaibei's head.
Chapter 133 Young, Too Tender
"Got it." Ji Wendi already had a plan in mind.
If you want to subdue Shen Lang, you have to work hard from here.
Afterwards, let him see what thunder and rain are.
"Sir, I will find a way to make them sing praises to the court..."
"Heh." Ji Wendi showed a hint of mockery: "These fools have believed in the King of Zhenbei for a long time. Is it so easy to change their minds? If you like to sing praises to the King of Zhenbei, then go ahead and sing praises."
Ji Wendi knew that changing the entire North's views would not be a matter of a day or two.
"Then..." Shen Lang opened his mouth: "Although I don't know who framed me, this matter was caused by Shen Lang's poor performance. Please punish me, Your Highness."
Ji Wendi discovered that Shen Lang was really sensible and hard to dislike.
He was clearly framed, but he still took the blame on himself.
Ji Wendi is a strange person. He doesn't hate his subordinates making mistakes, but he hates his subordinates talking back and teaching him how to do things.
For someone with a good attitude like Shen Lang, not to mention that the fault was not Shen Lang's, even if it was Shen Lang's, Ji Wendi couldn't blame him.
"There will be another play to be performed soon, so go and hand it over to the county magistrate first." Ji Wendi said casually.
Now that transportation efficiency has been improved, it doesn't matter who gets on board.
In any case, in Ji Wendi's own mind, he has already determined that this is Shen Lang's achievement, and the county magistrate cannot take it away even if he takes over.
When Shen Lang heard that the county magistrate wanted to take over, he became anxious.
If the county magistrate had been able to do his job well, would the city have been in that state at that time?
Shen Lang still remembers when he first entered the city.
The people had lifeless eyes and were pushing their carts, walking with difficulty on the city's main streets.
Their bodies were covered in blood and no one knew how many times they had been whipped.
On such a windy and sandy day, there are obvious wounds, stained with sand...
Although this is a world of cultivation, the medical system and food health system are to some extent even far superior to the modern ones. Even the ordinary rice grown by the people is pure natural and pollution-free under the influence of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. But people are still people after all, with flesh and blood!
That kind of top-level medical care is not affordable for ordinary people.
But if you oppose this guy at this time or recommend someone else, you will most likely fail.
That's not as good as...
"Sir, I don't know much about acting. Could I ask you what to do when the time comes?" Shen Lang said with a confused look on his face.
"Oh, then you and I can go up to the tower together, then, this way..."
"Sir!" Shen Lang heard Ji Wending's words and said hurriedly, "You are of noble status, how can you personally put yourself in danger?"
"Humph, I am the prince of the dynasty." Ji Wendi narrowed his eyes: "I dare to go to the front line, but I dare not go to that mere city wall?"
Shen Lang's pupils shrank slightly.
Is this guy a prince? No wonder he is so willful...
However, aren't official titles and the like administrated by the Ministry of Personnel? Even for a prince, it can't be that easy, right? The crown prince is still okay.
Like Zhu Di and Renzong, Zhu Di was like Renzong's General of the Northern Expedition, and all government affairs were managed by Renzong.
There are only a few princes who possess such power, and most of them are killed when they touch sensitive power.
This prince can directly appoint officials on the front line... It seems that this war is more dangerous than imagined, so he can act at his own convenience on the front line.
Or, is the inheritance method in this world of cultivation different from normal history?
After all, in the world of cultivation, one relies on strength, and sometimes personal ability can smooth out many things.
"Your Highness..." Shen Lang was even more certain of his thoughts after hearing the identity of this person: "A son of a wealthy family should not sit idle in the hall. Your coming to the front line is already a great encouragement to us."
"If you are still needed to fight on the city wall, then what use are we?"
"Also, who is Asujiba? Is he worthy of facing you?"
Shen Lang's last words touched Ji Wendi's heart.
"Well...he doesn't know who I am."
Seeing Ji Wendi's expression moved, Shen Lang said quickly, "Your Highness, the master humiliated the minister and he died. They don't know, but I know! Your Highness went up to the city wall in person. I am so terrified that I am afraid it will be difficult to act well..."
Ji Wendi thought about it.
If the news of his confrontation with the leader of the Qiyan tribe were to be reported back to Chang'an, would it damage his dignity?
However, he still doesn't trust others in this matter...
"Okay, then do you have anyone to recommend?" Ji Wendi asked.
"The military camp has been breached, so the highest official at this time is naturally the county magistrate." Shen Lang brought the county magistrate out to prevent him from harming the people: "Why don't I go and act with the county magistrate, and Your Highness can just sit back and do nothing."
"Hmm? Then what about transportation within the city? The logistics cannot be interrupted." Ji Wendi is knowledgeable. At least his basics are flawless. It's just that he is too idealistic and has little practical experience.
"The logistics in the city can now run on its own." Shen Lang said: "There are three juren, twelve xiucai, and some scholars, all doing these things."
