Mixing ancient times with Taobao

Chapter 538 Reporting to the Ministry of Officials ([-]-character chapter)
Sail set sail, Zuo Fu waved goodbye to the people in the port.Everything in Qiongzhou shrunk in her eyes, she gently wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, trying to make herself smile.

Yes, this is where she fought, but now she needs to fight in a wider world.

The collapse of Ming Dynasty was rooted in it. If one wanted to truly change the world, one had to go to the center of power to change everything.

Although the road ahead is difficult, she is not afraid.

All the boats were filled with Wanmin umbrellas she brought from Changzhou and Wanmin umbrellas sent by people in Qiongzhou.This is where she dared to challenge bad habits.

Water can carry a boat or overturn it, such is the relationship between the government and the people.Now, she has accumulated a small pool, although small, but one day it will become a vast ocean.

The heart yearning for a better life cannot be stopped!
The people have the right to live a life where they are old enough to be supported, their children to be supported, and their stomachs to be warmly clothed.

Seabirds circled and flew past, as if seeing her off.

Looking at the gradually shrinking port, she clenched her hands involuntarily.

This time, she must set off a monstrous storm and wash all the decay into the garbage dump of history!
Life on board is boring, but the journey is greatly shortened by technological advancements.Five days later, Zuo Fu arrived in Nanjing.

The moment they set foot on the Jiangnan water town, Mu Er and the others were very surprised.Although the scenery here is good, it seems to be very defeated. It is not 01:30 worse than Qiongzhou.Only when passing through Changzhou can we see some prosperous scenes, which can be compared with Qiongzhou.

And when they arrived in Nanjing, all expectations were dashed.Although there are many exquisite and luxurious buildings in the city, the sanitation and planning in the city are far from comparable to those in Qiongzhou.

Cement roads are used in the cities of Qiongzhou, and there are street lights and greening. There are garbage bins for dry and wet classification every other section of the road.

In addition, the yamen also hired a lot of people to clean the roads and clean the city, and built countless public toilets.

I thought that the capital of Ming Dynasty should be better than Qiongzhou, but looking at the scene in front of me and the faint smell of cow and horse dung in the air, Mu Er and the others were surprised, but they couldn't help but look very disappointed.

If they had just come to Daming, they would have been surprised by the prosperity of Kyoto.But now, they have stayed in Qiongzhou for several years, and looking at this capital, they feel very backward.

"Why do these people shave their hair?"

Zuo Fu led his personal guards through the city gate, and a group of soldiers guarding the city gate were stunned!

Many of Zuo Fu's personal guards had their heads shaved, leaving only a short layer on their scalps. Could it be that these people were monks?But it doesn't look like that!
Not only are they puzzled, but the common people are also puzzled.

They pointed at the group of devils and laughed endlessly.

well……

Although they have been in Daming for several years, many people have integrated into Qiongzhou society.However, the size of these people is fixed.

Luo is lame, short, and has short hair, which looks a little funny.Of course, their next generation may be able to avoid this situation, but those are things for later.

"Look at those people, walking is so funny! Is that noble man the Duke of Zhen? These are Qiongzhou soldiers? Why don't they even have hair? They are people from a barren land, and they don't know how to be polite!"

In fact, the Jinling accent already has a northern accent, and Mu Er and others have been in Daming for several years, and they already speak Mandarin very well.Listening to the discussion of the people at this moment, they all opened their ears and listened hard. After listening for a long time, their faces were embarrassing.

Are they probably saying they are barbarians?
really……

No matter how they integrated into Daming, their temperament and appearance couldn't be changed, right?This Luo lame is really hateful!We must not let the next generation become like this!The adults said that this was caused by their long-term kneeling and malnutrition, so in the future, the children must be strictly restrained and must sit on a stool.

Zuo Fu crossed the street without looking sideways. The first thing she did when she came back was not to go home, but to follow the rules, first report to the Ministry of Officials, and then wait for the emperor to summon her.

When he arrived at the official department, he left a group of personal guards outside the door, and went in with his official seal and duty report.

When a group of officials saw her, they saluted one after another.

Even if Zuo Fu didn't know them, they knew Zuo Fu.

Here, Zuofu met an old acquaintance again: Comrade Green Belt.

A few years have passed, and the green belt has matured a lot.Long beards also grew on the once smooth chin, adding a bit of vicissitudes.

When he saw Zuo Fu, he was stunned for a moment, then he bent down to salute, he didn't see the scene when he was favored by the servant when he just won the exam.

Zuo Fu glanced at him, saw that he had dark circles under his eyes, recalled what his mother said to him, sighed softly, and said, "Brother Lu, you are welcome. I haven't seen you for many years, how are you doing?"

There is nobility flowing out of the elegant bearing.

But after not seeing her for a few years, the aura she exudes is even more frightening.

That wasn't a murderous look, it was a very restrained aura.Obviously invisible, but hard to ignore.

This is the result of being in a high position for a long time, right?

Lu Huadai felt bitter, thinking of the shrew at home who was crying, making trouble and hanged herself, felt that she was blind, so she gave up the beautiful jade and picked up a stone.I'm living a life these days, I just hope that the one at home doesn't make a fuss.

and……

Because of his father-in-law, he was quite popular in this bureaucracy.Although everyone didn't trip him up, many people were not ashamed of his father-in-law, so they were indifferent and alienated towards him.

What he didn't expect was that Zuo Fu, who was once so angry and humiliated by himself, was very polite when he met him twice, and he didn't come to punish him when he gained power. Man how many streets.

It is said that the prime minister can pull a boat in his belly, Zuo Fu is really a beautiful jade, and he failed her.

Thinking of this, he became more and more ashamed, cupped his hands and said: "Your Excellency is now the Duke of the state, and he is about to take over the post of Yin Tianfu Yin. I really can't bear this big brother."

"Whether I can afford it or not, as long as I don't mind, what can others say? You look haggard, but someone makes things difficult for you?"

A group of bureaucrats looked sideways.

I was very surprised.

The last time Zuo Fulai reported to the Ministry of Officials, they were very surprised to be able to return to Lu Huadai.Thinking about it afterwards, Zuo Fu could indeed be called a gentleman.In the face of a heartless man, a person who almost killed himself can maintain his demeanor, which is beyond admiration.

Just this time...

listen to her...

Seems to be completely relieved?Only regard Lu Huadai as a childhood playmate?
"You don't have to."

Seeing Lu Huadai trembling slightly, Zuo Fu smiled and said, "One's life is so long, I have to keep hating you all the time, how tiring it is? Turning the page, people can live easily, Brother Lu should let it go... ..."

After finishing speaking, he passed Lu Huadai lightly, and said, "Let my brother take me to see the court official."

"what?"

Lu Huadai was stunned for a moment, but then he cupped his hands again and again, and said with a moved face: "Yes, the officer will take you there."

Lu Huadai led the way in front and passed a corridor. When there was no one there, he suddenly lowered his voice and said, "Wang Duo is dead."

Zuo Fu was taken aback, "How did he die?"

"It is said that he died of fright."

Zuo Fu frowned, "He is responsible for the consequences caused by ignorance of his recommendation, but if he is implicated because of this, he will be wronged. After all, knowing people, knowing the face but not knowing the heart, who would have thought that Ye Deshu would betray his ancestors for glory? Although Wang Duo is haughty, he is a man with a clean sleeve, and he will definitely not take advantage of others to become an official."

"At this time, I can still hear someone say a fair word for Mr. Wang...Yun Shu, I, I was not as good as a beast..."

"Let's forget about the past."

Zuo Fu sighed lightly, "I'm ugly and vicious, it's only reasonable that you like Miss Zhou's."

After a pause, he said again: "I won't mention this matter. Is this matter a big criticism in Beijing?"

Lu Huadai looked around and whispered: "The Tartars almost swallowed up half of Zhejiang. If they don't push someone out, how will they face the subjects? Lord Wang was scared to death, but the people who scared him to death... "

Zuo Fu nodded slightly, "Thank you brother for reminding me."

"Sister Zuo!"

Lu Huadai called out, "Can I still call you like this? I, I don't mean anything else, I, I just want to remind you that the capital city is very stormy, so don't act recklessly according to your temper. You have to be careful."

Zuo Fu chuckled, "Are you guilty of wanting to sell?"

Lu Huadai's face turned green, and his heart burst into anger.

He is guilty, and he was indeed blinded by power at the beginning.But no matter how bad a person is, there is a bottom line.He wasn't thick-skinned enough to try to curry favor with her by relying on his previous affection, but he simply didn't want her to suffer any harm.

Looking at Lu Huadai's face, Zuo Fu stretched out his hand with a smile, patted him on the shoulder and said: "You just like to think too much, and you always want to take advantage of it. I heard what my mother said, you always fooled me when you were young. Lied to my candy. Brother Lu, if you have no desires, you will be strong. If you have a clear heart, you will have no fear. Look at you, I am just a joke, so you think in a wrong way? You, this is a disease. You Only here..."

Zuo Fu pointed to his heart, "Only when you are strong can you get rid of the past and let your heart feel like still water."

Lu Huadai was speechless, blushing and said, "I didn't think so."

After a pause, he quickly changed the subject and said, "The heavenly official has changed. This person and Yang Tingjian were once Jinshi. When Jiashen was in trouble, he organized righteous men to resist. Afterwards, he committed suicide and lived in seclusion to avoid chaos. After the British public fire He also escaped from the British government, speaking, you and the British government worked together in Qiongzhou, so this person and you can be regarded as some kind of karma."

"You specifically said it..."

Zuo Fu narrowed his eyes, "Is this person difficult to get along with?"

After a pause, he continued: "But Cheng Kegong? Cheng Zigu?"

"You know him?"

Zuo Fu nodded, "I heard a little."

Knowing this person is naturally what Zhang Jingxuan said.When he set fire to it, he not only burned down the hundreds of years of the British government's foundation, but also burned out a group of people who were unwilling to be the lackeys of the Qing court.

But in the original history, this person would eventually become an official.It's just that in the original history, these people chose to become officials because they couldn't see hope, but in this time and space, because of her appearance, Daming still occupied half of the country, so the British Duke burned it and directly took away many of Chongzhen's 16 years. Jinshi.

Now Zuo Fu was not surprised to hear that this person took over as Minister of the Ministry of Officials.Many ministers are old, after this incident, it is impossible not to shuffle the cards with Zhu Cihong's temper.That is to say, Qian Qianyi is better at being a man, and Zeng Ying and others are more upright, otherwise the cabinet will be reshuffled.

So it is expected that the six palm prints will be replaced now.And in terms of seniority, only those few people are qualified to take over.

What made Zuo Fu feel dazed was that these officials who should have been officials of the Qing court were still serving Daming at this moment. Thinking about the butterfly effect, he felt a little dazed.

A small change can change the fate of so many people, so can her reform succeed?
Concentrating on her trance, she nodded slightly, "Thank you very much."

During the conversation, the two had arrived in front of the courtyard where Shang Shu worked, Lu Huadai knocked on the door to report, the room was silent for a while, and then said: "Let her in."

Lu Huadai invited Zuo Fu to go in according to his words, but he himself retreated.

Zuo Fu entered the room, looked at the narrow space, and couldn't help sighing.

In terms of office conditions, Beijing officials are really not as good as local officials.

The central government offices in the capital of the Ming Dynasty are all located in the imperial city, and the space is limited, so it is naturally impossible to give too much space.Not to mention the ministers, even the cabinet bosses can only work in a dark and humid place.

Thinking of this, Zuo Fu secretly laughed.

Fortunately, the Yingtian government office is not in the palace, as a government office that directly faces the people, it doesn't have this kind of treatment.And let these bosses enjoy the cramped office treatment for the time being.

"Zuo Fu, the magistrate of Qiongzhou, Zuo Yunshu greets the boss."

Zuo Fu saluted, "This time I have to bother the boss with his performance appraisal."

Cheng Kegong returned a salute, but he was not arrogant.It's just that there is no smile on his face, just like the rumors, he is a serious person.

"Mr. Zhen Guo is polite."

Cheng Kegong said: "Your achievements in Qiongzhou are obvious to all, and His Majesty personally appointed you, so this assessment is unnecessary. However, I want to take a look at your job report, after all, this is my job."

Zuo Fu nodded, expressing his understanding, "My lord, you don't have to be polite. You can't do anything without rules, just follow the rules."

"Not bad!"

Cheng Kegong stroked his beard and nodded, "I heard that you are very respectful of rules and the laws of the country. It is quite valuable to be able to not be proud of this honor today. I only hope that after you take over the post of Governor, You can keep the heart of a child undefeated and benefit the people. If you lose this heart and break the law and discipline, this official will not care who you are, and will impeach you."

Zuo Fu nodded with a smile, "I would like to follow the teachings of the boss."

Although Cheng Kegong is only 45 years old, he is indeed a grandfather at this age.So he didn't feel uneasy when he called the boss.It's just that Zuofu's seemingly respectful attitude will make him feel alienated.

Thinking about what happened before, he felt relieved again.

No one is a saint, is he?
Leaving aside distracting thoughts, someone served Zuo Fu tea, while he quickly flipped through Zuo Fu's report.

This look, is fascinated.

Although this report is full of plain language, it is written concisely and straight to the point, making people look not at all irritated.

He looked up at Zuo Fu, who was sitting there, sipping tea quietly, and he couldn't help sighing in his heart: There is no one who is worthy of fame, Zuo Fuguo is not easy!

　The package finally dropped to less than 520, today [-] seven, and tomorrow, it should be back to normal, the courier brother did not come tonight, I am really relieved!Now when I see the courier boy, I tremble. I think they all look like devils, it's terrible!
