Daming: Mixed in Dangzhi County, Beiping

Chapter 43 Misunderstanding?

In the past two months, Zhu Di and Nie Zishi have been more concerned about the reclamation of wasteland in various townships in Wanping County than Guo An, the magistrate of Wanping County.

Therefore, there is no exaggeration to worry about the acres of land reclaimed by the people of Wanping County.

Moreover, in the hearts of these two people, they have long wanted to let the magistrates of the prefectures and counties under the administration of Beiping Prefecture go to all the townships under the administration of Wanping County to inspect them on the spot.

Unexpectedly, before they could think of a reason, these prefects and prefects had already delivered to their door.

Therefore, from the beginning to the end, Nie Zishi didn't say a word.

After Li Wang led a group of King Yan's guards to detain those reluctant prefects and counties.

Nie Zishi looked at Cao Peng on the ground with gloomy eyes.

"Cao Shenyi, please explain this matter to me and His Highness King Yan, otherwise, don't blame me for being ruthless!"

Zhu Di also said in a serious tone, "Hmph, Fantai Nie doesn't need to be so polite, this king will directly detain this guy, interrogate him, everything will be clear!"

"Your Majesty Fantai, His Royal Highness the King of Yan, I am wronged. I don't know that there is such an insider story about the borrowing of grain from Wanping County!" Cao Peng hurriedly begged for mercy.

"Hmph, this matter was approved by the emperor, and you, a thief officer, don't know?" Zhu Di asked coldly.

"what?"

Cao Peng was dumbfounded, he really didn't know about it.Moreover, I never thought that a mere Wanping County could alarm the emperor.

Zhu Di asked again: "Say, who asked you to prevent the people of Wanping County from borrowing grain like this?"

"Your Highness, forgive me, this matter, this matter..."

Cao Peng's face turned pale, he raised his head and looked around, hesitant to speak.

Seeing this, Zhu Di yelled directly at the surrounding officials of the Beiping Chief Envoy: "Everyone, go out!"

Nie Zishi nodded slightly.

All the officials of Beiping's chief political envoy quickly withdrew.

Zhu Di and Nie Zishi stared closely at Cao Peng.

Cao Peng gave a wry smile, slightly cupped his hands towards Zhu Di, and then said helplessly, "His Royal Highness King Yan, Fantai Nie, the elder brother of the next official is Marquis Jing Chuan!"

"Ok?"

With just one sentence, the expressions of Zhu Di and Nie Zishi changed.

Jing Chuan Hou Cao Zhen may not be too conspicuous among the nobles of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Di and Nie Zishi can completely ignore it.

However, Cao Zhen's wife is the nurse of Prince Zhu Biao, and Zhu Di and Nie Zishi dare not neglect it.

After pondering for a moment, Zhu Di asked in a deep voice: "Is this what elder brother hinted at you?"

Cao Peng smiled wryly, and said: "His Royal Highness King Yan misunderstood, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is absolutely unaware of this!"

If Zhu Biao knew, he would definitely not let them mess around like this!

Hearing this, Zhu Di breathed a sigh of relief, as long as the prince did not order this matter, then he would not be afraid.

"Then the king borrowed food from the people of Wanping County, why did you obstruct it like this?"

Cao Peng replied with a wry smile again: "His Royal Highness, one of the officials used to farm in Beiping, and the officials are well aware of the difficulty of hoarding grain in Beiping.

The officials were afraid that if they lent the [-] shi of grain to the tens of thousands of people in Wanping County, all the officials of the Beiping government's chief envoy would be punished if those people didn't return the grain in the coming year.

If it happened, my Ming Dynasty had the intention of going to Beiyuan again, and my Beiping mansion could not produce a bag of grain, and the subordinate officials and other officials of the Beiping chief envoy would definitely be punished.

As a result, the Xiaguan was anxious, and all the prefects and counties under the Beiping Mansion came to complain to the Xiaguan. Under the recklessness of the Xiaguan, he rushed over with a team of yamen servants! "

"Humph!"

Zhu Di snorted coldly, and looked at Cao Peng suspiciously, "Damn you, are you a dog official lying to me?
You are a small counselor, how dare you to be the head of Beiping's chief envoy in private, and want to arrest the magistrate of Wanping County, and even Wang Zhen, the king's guard, you dare to arrest him? "

"What, Wanping County Dian Shi is His Highness's guard?" Cao Peng was surprised.

Zhu Di said: "Hmph, the magistrate of Wanping County made such a big event, I was afraid that a thief like you would not see others well, so I specially sent Wang Zhen to protect Guo An.

Unexpectedly, the king just sent Wang Zhen there yesterday, and you thief officer started to do such nasty things! "

"It's the lower officials who don't know that the magistrate of Wanping County is someone His Highness favors, so please forgive me!" Cao Peng quickly apologized.

Zhu Di snorted again, then looked at Nie Zishi, "Nie Fantai, this thief official is your Beiping chief envoy, so you should punish him."

"Yes, Your Highness!"

Nie Zishi responded quickly.

Zhu Di glared at Cao Peng again, then walked out angrily.

But in Beiping chief envoy, looking at Zhu Di's back, Nie Zishi looked helpless.

Cao Peng felt relieved, he passed this test.

……

But in the wilderness under the rule of Wanping County, those magistrates who were escorted by Li Wang were sweating profusely and miserable.

In May, weeping dragons, in June, weeping yang!
At this moment, there is already a hot wave above Beiping Mansion, and the heat is fumigated.

In addition, all the county magistrates who have been walking in the wilderness and have never experienced such suffering have long been complaining and regretting.

If they knew that this would be the result, they would never argue with King Yan just because of the tens of thousands of stones of grain.

But now, under the supervision of Li Wang and other King Yan's guards, they couldn't stop if they wanted to rest for a while.

So, this group of prefects and counties, holding a wasteland account book, walked for five days in various villages under the administration of Wanping County, and only then did they get a rough idea.

When they returned to Beiping Mansion again, all the prefects and counties were darkened and lost a lot of weight.

……

Wanping County Government Office.

Wang Zhen walked directly into Guo An's public house, and reported with his hands together: "Report to the county lord, His Highness summons you!"

"His Royal Highness King Yan?"

Guo An was stunned. Ever since Mr. Zhu appeared outside the granary that day and took away that Candi Cao and the prefects and counties, he never looked for him again.

As for the encounter between Cao Shenyi and the prefects and counties, he also listened to Wang Zhen.

Guo An couldn't agree with the misunderstanding of Cao Senshi.However, Zhu Laosi didn't look for him, and he, a little county magistrate, couldn't ask him either.

"Exactly!"

Wang Zhen didn't reply, but stood there quietly, looking at Guo An.

Seeing this, Guo An sighed helplessly.

"Where is Your Highness?"

"In the palace!" Wang Zhen cherished his words like gold.

Guo An nodded slightly, put down the pen in his hand, got up and walked out.

He knew that the palace that Wang Zhen was talking about was not Yingtiancheng's palace, but Yanwang Palace not far from the county government.

And Zhu Laosi was the backer for him to live well in Beiping, and even the whole of Daming, so he couldn't ignore Zhu Laosi's summoning.

"Let's go!"
