Jinyi champion

Chapter 294
Hearing this call, Tang Yin followed Yuan Zonggao's line of sight to look at Zhang Zuo.

Zhang Zuo was very sensible, smiled and cupped his hands, and left without saying a word, leaving Tang Yin and Yuan Zonggao a chance to speak alone.

As far as Zhang Zuo is concerned, he is not afraid of Tang Yin's "surrender to the enemy" now, because he can see that Tang Yin and Yuan Zonggao have formed a competitive relationship. It's that easy, right?

"Yuan Changshi, I have not informed you about this before, so I went to His Highness King Xing to offer advice. I hope you will not be offended."

Tang Yin sincerely apologized.

Yuan Zonggao once said before that he had to consult with him beforehand...

But the problem is that you, Yuan Zonggao, never tell me what happened to you!
Yuan Zonggao smiled casually: "Bohu, in fact, I have never advocated that the palace should show sharp claws. It's not because I don't believe that there are real dragons in the palace, but because...a gentleman hides a weapon in his body and moves it when the time comes...you know I can't decide Will agree, if you don't mention it to the old man, the old man won't blame you..."

Yuan Zonggao actually took the initiative to find a reason to excuse Tang Yin, as if to say, if you tell me, I will definitely not agree with your suggestion, so I can understand if you don't come to me.

It seems to be defending Tang Yin, but the problem is... Tang Yin thinks these words are very bitter.

Yuan Zonggao sighed: "The old man is old and unable to support himself. If he blindly seeks stability in doing things, he is afraid of making mistakes. In the eyes of you young people, I am afraid that you will be rotten and do not seek to make progress.

"But... I always feel that the current palace should be prudent and keep a low profile. After all, His Majesty is in the prime of his life. I'm afraid it won't last decades... There is really no need to put yourself under the scrutiny of the world... Bohu, In the future, the palace can only rely on young people like you to contribute."

I am young?
I'm also an old man half buried in the ground, Lao Yuan, did you drink too much today?
Tang Yin showed an open-minded attitude, leaned down, and said respectfully: "I will only think about the prince's family in the next step. As the saying goes, eating the king's work and worrying about the king's worries, as long as it is good for the prince's house, he will not dare to be selfish."

Yuan Zonggao said: "The old man knows that your mind is all on the safety of the palace, otherwise you would not propose to use yourself as a bait, but...why is this necessary?"

After speaking, he shook his head with a smile, and stopped talking about deeper topics with Tang Yin.

Why bother?
Tang Yin pondered for a while.

To you, Yuan Zonggao, you may feel that I, Tang Yin, did this extravagantly, as if I was sacrificing myself to gain some benefits for the palace, but in the final analysis, am I just trying to get a stable job?We are really not on the same boat, we have completely different worries and worries, and we can't understand each other at all.

"Bohu, if you have time, cultivate Zhu Hao more. That kid has a heart of loyalty and quick wit. Maybe he can help you..."

Yuan Zonggao said something, waved his hand, and walked away.

……

……

Tang Yin didn't understand for a moment what Yuan Zonggao's last sentence meant.

Since you want me to cultivate Zhu Hao, why do you want him to help me?

What help?
In the afternoon of that day, Tang Yin went to the school dormitory to teach a few children. During his spare time, when the children were playing cuju in the yard, he called Zhu Hao to the side and asked about it.

Zhu Hao said with a smile: "Why are you so confused at this time? Yuan Changshi is completely disappointed in you, and satirized you with my loyalty for failing his appreciation, and wants you to learn from me to reciprocate, see the situation clearly, and get rid of it as soon as possible." Return to his camp instead of relying on Zhang Fengzheng like this."

"Ah? Did you have this thought?" Tang Yin turned pale with shock.

Zhu Hao smiled and said: "Otherwise? Do you think that you went to see King Xing with Zhang Fengzheng and put forward an opinion that was completely at odds with Yuan Changshi, and you still expect Yuan Changshi to treat you as his own? This is an open break, right? "

Tang Yin thought so too.

Although from my own standpoint, I have been separated from Yuan Zonggao for a long time, but it is far from the point of parting ways.

But after this incident, Yuan Zonggao may have seen that if Tang Yin wanted to achieve something in the palace, he had to bypass the constraints of the palace chief Shi Si. There is a competitive relationship with Tang Yin, a pure aide who has no official status.

That's why Tang Yin chose to form an alliance with Zhang Zuo instead of obeying the Chief of the Palace, Shi Si, for the sake of his own future.

I have already torn my face, can I still be open and honest in the future?

Tang Yin looked at the children Zhu San and Zhu Si yelling around Cuju, while Zhu Haowen sat quietly under the eaves of the corridor, acting as a bystander, feeling a lot of emotion in his heart, and sighed: "Yuan Changshi and I are standing here. Is it really okay to go to the opposite side? The whole palace, after all, the Chief Secretary is in charge, so I am digging my own grave like this?"

Zhu Hao said with a smile: "Don't expect others to provide you with convenience, your destiny must be firmly in your own hands."

Tang Yin shouted: "Speak human words."

"You don't like to listen to the big truth, so let me talk about something practical... Your position has always been awkward. If you follow Yuan Changshi's orders everywhere, then you are just an ordinary staff member, just attached to the existence of the Changshi Secretary. , is dispensable to Xingwangfu, and may be replaced at any time.

"On the other hand, if you dare to speak up and make the palace profit every time, then your position is similar to that of a military adviser, and your status will be highlighted at once. If you plan to suppress the bandits this time successfully, let Xing The palace has both fame and fortune, and you will succeed in the position. The Chief Secretary has no right to decide whether you will stay or not.

"That's why Yuan Changshi didn't blow his beard and stare at you in front of King Xing before, and he couldn't squeeze you out, because he also has to wait for the result to see who is the right one between the two of you... What do you think? "

Zhu Hao's words made Tang Yin fall into deep thought.

If you think about it carefully, if Yuan Zonggao finds out that he is "surrendering to the enemy", he can maliciously slander King Xing, saying that he is just a frail scholar with no experience in commanding troops. Achievement, only an old scholar with a little fame in poetry and painting?
Once it fails, it will not only affect the reputation of the palace, but also cause a large number of deaths and injuries to the guards, and suddenly there will be many orphans and widows in the palace. Who will bear the responsibility?

But Yuan Zonggao was not in a hurry to stop it, because he was also waiting and watching. If Tang Yin really got things done, would it be useful to say these words now?

Anyway, now that Zhu Youzhu was bewitched by Zhang Zuo and Tang Yin, he was determined to earn a future for Zhu Si.

"If things don't work out, I'll be ashamed to stay in the palace, so let's do my best for myself to have a good meal in the palace!"

Tang Yin got up and left.

In front of Zhu Hao, he has always been very straightforward, without so many twists and turns.

After walking a few steps, he suddenly turned his head and looked at Zhu Hao: "Don't go home tonight, go to my place, let's talk at night by candlelight."

He spoke bold words, but was very honest in his heart. Tang Yin knew how much he was worth, and understood that he should ask Zhu Hao for advice on countermeasures at this moment, instead of working behind closed doors.

……

……

Zhu Hao still left the palace that afternoon, but instead of going home, he went to the school he ran.

Mrs. Gongsun officially started teaching.

For the women's school, sixteen girls aged eight to twelve were recruited from Shangkuang and Xiakuang villages, nominally going to the city as apprentices, but actually attending classes.

Recently, the outside of the city is also avoiding bandits.

The strong men of Shangkuang and Xiakuang villages stayed in the village to dig cellars and so on. Women and children began to slowly migrate into the city. Everything was carried out in an orderly manner under the arrangement of Zhu Niang. After all, the families in the two villages were their own tenants, Shangkuang and Xiakuang The village itself has no protective measures, unlike the Zhuangzi of the general gentry, which has high walls to resist foreign enemies.

People who have the conditions go to the city, and those who don't have the conditions can only pray for God's blessing, and don't let the bandits find their three-acre land.

Bandits looting, especially those who are not familiar with the local terrain, basically run around when they are looting. Once officers and soldiers chase after them, in many places they just loot and leave... As long as they don't intend to rebel Even if the big thief kills and sets fire, enough is enough.

Even thieves understand the principles of sustainable development.

You wiped out those villages, and the land far away from the city was abandoned and no one cultivated it. What will you come to grab next time?
Pirates have their own way. Sometimes they don’t uphold the so-called justice, but do it as a last resort. Who makes the robbers themselves count on those honest farmers to live?
Killing and arson is fun for a while, but the officers and soldiers are more determined to kill them, and they will be sentenced to heavier sentences if they are caught.

Of course, this is only aimed at ordinary thieves and bandits. The ones fleeing from Jiangxi this time are obviously "big thieves".

But the people outside the city are just preparing according to the general strategy of preventing thieves, hiding their food in caves or cellars as much as possible, and sending people to guard them at night.

Try not to live in the village, and the whole family, old and young, move to the mountains, or to the city... there is always a way.

Zhu Hao brought Ouyang Fei over, introduced her to Gong Yeling and Mrs. Gongsun, and waited for the three girls to exchange greetings for a while before asking, "Miss Ouyang, do you know each other?"

Ouyang Fei nodded, looking a little cautious.

Through communication, she knew that she was different from Gong Yeling and Mrs. Gongsun. They were hired by Zhu Hao and belonged to "contract workers", while she signed a contract of prostitution and belonged to slaves. She was very afraid that Zhu Hao would take her Calling over is the hard work of serving tea and water to take care of people.

Mrs. Gongsun used to teach girls to recite the thousand-character prose in the classroom, but when the boss came, she had to leave the teaching task to socialize.Hearing that Ouyang Fei, who was as beautiful as a fairy, said that she was Zhu Hao's maidservant, she was very surprised how Zhu Hao managed to make Ouyang Fei, who had extraordinary knowledge and conversation, sell herself as a slave.

"Master, I asked you to hire maids and mother-in-law, have you found them all?"

Zhu Hao had long entrusted Mrs. Gongsun and Gong Yeling to hire a maid for the school to take care of the teachers and students' daily life and food.

Unexpectedly, Mrs. Gongsun shook her head.

Gong Yeling on the side replied: "Currently, the mother-in-law from the opera troupe can come and help at any time. If they are hired individually, will it... be more expensive?"

Zhu Hao said with a smile: "It's not high, it's not high. Your task here is to teach the children with peace of mind. I will teach you some basic handicrafts in the future, and you can pass them on to those girls... I am a boy. After entering, there is nothing wrong with their dormitory, right?"

Mrs. Gongsun nodded: "It's okay."

Zhu Hao said: "The service personnel are not in place, and the children need to do the food and hygiene for the time being, and there are still people to take care of the lifting and lifting, but the courtyard is full of female relatives... how about this, I will ask Miss Ouyang to take care of it For a moment, if you need anything, tell her directly, and she will arrange everything... Usually, she just needs to connect with me."

Zhu Hao officially appointed Ouyang Fei as an errand.

Not to come to the present, not even to teach, but to come and see from time to time, record the needs here, tell Zhu Hao, and then be responsible for the specific implementation.

Ouyang Fei managed a large family. Although the business was not as satisfactory, she was well-educated and well-informed, and she was well-informed when she traveled all over the world. As long as she stood there, she would show her momentum. I believe no one would dare to do foreign work under her nose.

Gong Yeling said: "Boss, then I..."

Zhu Hao smiled and made a plan: "Miss Gongye, you can go back to the opera troupe to sing, or you can stay here, it's all up to you, just explain the situation to Master Yu, your current status is part-time School life teacher. I will not pay you less salary...

"As for Ms. Ouyang, she needs to live elsewhere. After the textile workshop is established, she will be the shopkeeper and be responsible for the daily management of the workshop. You can just focus on teaching and educating people."
