Reborn Ming Dynasty as Emperor

Chapter 503 The Local Official's Response on the Eve of Blindfolding (Fifth Change)

Guangxi Chief Secretary Youjiang Road, a small village at the mouth of Yangjiakou in Sien Prefecture was originally a little-known place name, but because the newly promoted imperial concubine Ning was the youngest daughter of the youngest Yang in this village, it became famous instantly.

This morning, the sky was just dawning, and the heavy rain yesterday afternoon has continued until now, but Cen Jie, the hereditary governor of Enzhou, has already accompanied Youjiang Road branch to patrol Daotai Chai Zeng at this time. Came here in the rain.

According to the usual season, not to mention the increased use of firewood in Youjiang Dao, Dao, Dao, and Taiwan by the official residence, even Cen Jie, the local prefect, would not come to this mountain to suffer, but now that Concubine Ning Luoruo is going back to her hometown to visit her relatives soon, they have to Check here infrequently to ensure that there are no mistakes.

Chai Zengyong picked up the mud from his boots with a bamboo stick, and asked Cen Jie, the local magistrate, and Wu Weiye, who was exiled here as a professor of the government: "Is everything ready, my natal family The ancestral house can use the hollow bricks that have been recently sold. Someone has checked whether Mrs. Yang, don't let him go to the cliff to plant some newly popular potatoes, and the six-year-old uncle Xiaoguo, who patched Have you changed your clothes, don't let the empress feel sad when she sees it."

Although Cen Jie is a hereditary magistrate, he is not considered a chieftain who can separate a party. He basically does not have any military power. I don't want his hereditary prefect position to be revoked by the higher-ups for reasons.

"My lord, everything has been arranged. The ancestral house of my mother's family has been replaced with good bricks, which were fired from the best kiln in Foshan, Guangdong, and all the houses in the entire village have been added bricks. It was rammed with big blue stones, but the heavy rain has washed away a section of the road recently, and people are rushing to repair it. The official also sent three most reliable maids to serve Mrs. Yang, watching him every day. It’s not difficult for him to grow potatoes, even if he goes to the backyard orchard to pick some fruit, just in case he stumbles, and besides, Uncle Xiaoguo, the subordinate officials also prepared a few sets of clothes for him, all of which are from Sichuan brocade.”

This Cen Jie also knows that it is not an easy event for the empress to return home, not to mention that the emperor may also come, which is even more difficult. In places like Guangxi, no emperor has appeared in hundreds of years, so He also actively cooperated with the errands assigned by his superiors. Even though he has paid a lot of money first, he doesn't feel that it is a waste of money. In his opinion, as long as the emperor remembers his loyalty, he can Guarantee that the Cen family will be the hereditary magistrate for several generations.

"That's good, Mr. Wu, you are a great talent, and you have been wronged by coming to our place to teach, but now you also know that the emperor and the empress are going to come here, even if you have complaints, you can't ruin this welcoming relationship." Take over the important matter of the mother's family visit, after all, this is also to fulfill the duty of a minister, you have been an imperial official, you should know it better than me."

After Chai Zengyong nodded, he didn't talk to the local magistrate Cen Jie again. He looked down upon this kind of hereditary local magistrate who was not born in the imperial examination and did not have the military power of a chieftain. The officials of the Hanlin Academy who were born on the right track of the imperial examination were a little respectful and also a little jealous, but now that Wu Weiye was demoted here because he disobeyed the Holy Majesty, it made him feel a lot more balanced. It took him a year to climb up from Zhizhou Ren to the current position of road patrol, but now it is also a good enjoyment for him to be able to order around a person who was born as a second-class Jinshi.

But this Wu Weiye is neither arrogant nor obsequious, but just as dull as a gourd, no matter how much Chai Zengyong taunts him, he just ignores it.

In order to show his face in front of His Majesty, Chai Zengyong, the branch inspector, begged Wu Weiye to write the epitaph several times after renovating the tomb of the Yang family ancestors, but Wu Weiye prevaricated. Now Chai Zengyong has no choice but to persuade him.

Wu Weiye hated this kind of local officials' behavior of exhausting their brains to curry favor with superiors, but the different experiences of Qi Biaojia and Wang Siren published in the newspaper a few days ago made him realize that the imperial power cannot be violated. Chai Zeng used the righteousness of the emperor and his ministers to persuade him, so he nodded and said, "Okay, I will write it down as an official."

"That's right, Prefect Cen, hurry up and find the best stonemason and the best marble. As soon as Mr. Wu's inscription is written, it will be carved immediately, and then filled with soil." Chai Zengyong hurriedly asked Cen After Jie ordered, Cen Jie agreed to trot to handle the matter, while Chai Zengyong personally pulled Wu Weiye onto the sliding pole, and hurried to the government office. To write the epitaph.

Not long after Wu Weiye finished writing the epitaph and Cen Jie completed the inscription, Guangxi's left and right political envoys, procuratorial envoys, command envoys, and inspector censors all rushed to Yangjiacun.

Later, even the governor of Guangxi, who was patrolling the Beihai area, rushed here.

The governor of Guangdong and Guangxi was sent back to Zhaoqing by Zhu Youxiao's order, or else he would come.

The secrecy of His Majesty's inspection itinerary was done too well, so they could only hurry.

All of a sudden, a small mountain village gathered all the officials in Guangxi. Among them, Yang Honggui, the Zuo Buzheng of Guangxi, was the most anxious. As soon as he entered Yangjia Village, he found Tai Chai Zengyong, a sub-road inspector, and asked:

"Your Majesty and Your Majesty have already arrived in Wuzhou, and Zhongcheng is on the way here. Have you made arrangements here? Don't let Your Majesty and Your Majesty feel dissatisfied at that time, but Your Majesty may not accompany Your Majesty. When you enter the village, you may just rest in the capital city. You have to prepare a place to sleep. This time His Majesty will bring Miss Liu besides the empress. This person is not a simple maid, and she must not be neglected. You must treat King Gui as usual. The princess’s treatment comes. In addition, Li Ge and Wang Neixiang must be properly arranged. The same is true for the generals and soldiers of the Fifth Army. They cannot be treated slowly. If there is any mistake, we officials There will be no good days."

"The lower officials have already made arrangements." Chai Zengyong, the sub-inspector of Youjiang Road in Guangxi, was talking, and Yang Honggui asked again: "Wu Weiye, I have to persuade him to come here for so long to reform, so don't contradict your majesty again. , It’s not good for him, and it’s not good for us. In short, you should see if there is anything that hasn’t been arranged. If there is anything that needs to be arranged immediately, I’ll go and see my uncle and uncle first.”

The uncle mentioned by Zuo Buzheng Yang Honggui was the father of Luoruo, the old farmer Yang Laoyao, but since he learned that his daughter Luo Ruo had become a concubine, Yang Honggui, who was a few years older than Yang Laoyao, recognized it. This old master Yang is from the same family, and he also called his uncle, and he called his youngest son a young uncle, so that he could not be of the same generation as Concubine Ning Luoruo.
