Be a master through ancient times
Chapter 272 Taking office
"Master, the frontier is the border of Xijiang Province. I guess we can reach Nanfu Province this afternoon. Gege $Party% novel"
Chang Xiao went to the teahouse ahead to buy some steamed buns, and by the way asked the owner of the teahouse about the way.
Chu Ci nodded, took the steamed stuffed bun and water from Chang Xiao, thanked him, and said, "Well, take a good rest after arriving this afternoon."
They walked for more than ten days without stopping except for necessary rest.This is all for Chuci to take office within the time limit.
……
After Chu Ci returned to Changxi Village, he stayed there for almost half a month.Apart from going to Jiang Huai's house to drink full moon wine and see his fat son, he never went out again.When he was free, he planned the things at home again.
Currently, his family has hundreds of acres of land, and there are several shops in Ping'an Town and Yuanshan County that are used to collect rent. The annual income is at least 1000 taels.In a small village, this is beyond the imagination of the villagers.But if it is placed in the rich places like Jiangnan or Kyoto, the more than 1000 taels will not be a shock at all, and it may even get a reputation of being honest and honest.
But Chu Ci actually didn't have much obsession with money. If it wasn't for the fact that his family was too poor when he came here, and even when he saw a doctor, his wife had to mortgage the silver ring. I am afraid that Chu Ci's concept of money would still remain in modern times.
After looking through the ledger, he sold a shop in a remote place, paid some extra money to buy [-] mu of land for his family, and added another [-] mu of sacrifice land.The [-] acres of sacrificial fields are dedicated to the children in the private school.Chuci discussed with the village head and old master Zhang that the output of the [-] acres of sacrificed land will be used to reward children who are outstanding in their studies so that they will not be unable to go to school because of poverty.
Although the private school in their village has already exempted half of the tuition fees, and they can exchange firewood and food, but if they want to study further, they have to go to the town or county.
Previously, the original master was exempted from tuition fees because of his outstanding academic performance, but for a poor boy, the cost of the academy is also quite a lot.Many students dropped out of school and went home because of these reasons.Therefore, the funding quota given by Chu Ci lasts for several years.If in the past few years, the student has been lazy in his studies or has other illegal behaviors, then the funding for him will be directly cancelled.This can be regarded as the ancient version of bursary.
Originally, Chu Ci wanted to continue using the Imperial Academy's reward method, but after thinking about it, he still felt that it was inappropriate.The environment is different, and the status of the students is also different. The students of the Guozijian have a very good family background, and almost no one is short of money. It would be better to reward them spiritually.But what the children in their village need is not this.Chu Ci often asked others to read a few more words to teach students according to their aptitude, so naturally he would not do such stupid things.
As the old saying goes, if you are rich, you will benefit the world, and if you are poor, you will be good for yourself.Chu Ci has this ability, so naturally he has to lead the villagers, strengthen the education level of the villagers, and strive to make quantitative changes lead to qualitative changes. As long as the children are motivated, the future of Changxi Village can be expected.
During this period, Zhang Wenhai, Zhang's father and Zhang's mother also came to Changxi Village.Xu Shi has been in prison for several months, so Zhang's father looks a little depressed, exhausted and haggard written on his face, he looks as if he is more than ten years old.Zhang's mother was worried day and night because of this matter, and her condition was not much better than that of Zhang's father.
They were very grateful to Chu Ci. Originally, they thought the case was a certainty and could not be overturned, but they did not expect Chu Ci to win a beautiful turnaround battle with just one lawsuit, allowing the Zhang family to escape from prison.
Chu Ci kindly advised them to let them relax. After all, the matter has passed, and it is meaningless to think about it. It is better to learn the lesson from this time and let yourself not do it again next time.
Zhang's father nodded again and again, and there was a flash of fear in his expression. He thought he had been tortured in the prison cell, and he said: "No wonder people say that wine is a poison for piercing the intestines, and sex is a steel knife for scraping bones. From now on, I will drink this wine." But I dare not touch it at all." After finishing speaking, he regretted that he had talked too much, how could people like them avoid drinking?
"The ancients also said that there is no etiquette without wine, and there are few people on the colorless road. Uncle Zhang, you don't have to be so careful, just control the amount of alcohol you drink, just be slightly drunk, and don't get drunk." The idea gave him a step down.
"What Ah Ci said is exactly what you should change the most is the problem of not having a good mouth, daring to say anything nonsense." Zhang's mother said angrily.
Zhang's father was a little embarrassed, but the old wife made a lot of sense.Because of his negligence in one sentence, he brought such a big trouble to the family. His wife and son all lost a lot of weight. He really should change it!
Seeing that they were uncomfortable, Chu Ci quietly led the topic elsewhere.
Zhang Wenhai looked at Chu Ci, and the reverence in his heart could not be restrained.He made a decision in his heart, and he had to make it clear to his parents after he went back!
……
"What day is today?"
A voice suddenly came out of the originally quiet imperial study, and the attendant father-in-law blurted out without thinking: "My Majesty, today is the tenth day of December, and the Laba Festival has just passed two days ago."
"It's the tenth day of the Lunar New Year..." Emperor Tianhe murmured to himself. He asked Chu Ci to take up his post in the Governor's Yamen of Southern Fujian Province before December [-]th, and it was probably coming soon.
As a conscientious emperor, Emperor Tianhe has endless things to do every day, but he doesn't have much time to think about these things.Today he thought of Chu Ci again, because the Minister of the Ministry of Justice mentioned him again in the early court today, saying that the following people presented a complaint written by Zhuangyuan Lang himself, turning over an already firmly established case.
He had always thought that Chu Ci was only good at teaching and educating people, but he didn't expect that he was also proficient in criminal procedure.In just over a month, he intervened in two cases.This was not his job, some ministers couldn't help being a little bit scornful when they heard about it, saying that he was overstepping his role, but they couldn't say anything else, because every case he handled was well-founded.The Secretary of the Ministry of Justice seemed a little annoyed in his words, saying that he knew that Chu Ci was so powerful, and he should have made friends with him when he was still in the capital. Maybe he could have another general in the Ministry of Justice.
Tianhedi smiled wryly, this Chu Ciguo is very human, even if he is no longer in the capital, everyone will not forget him, and he will do something from time to time.I don't know what big waves he caused in the capital of Nanfu Province?
This issue is not only concerned by Emperor Tianhe, but also by Prime Minister Zuo who strongly recommended Chu to resign from the post in Southern Fujian Province.
After today's court, he once again felt extremely correct about the decision he made.If someone like Chu Ci is not released early to weaken his position in the emperor's heart, I am afraid that the voices of their new sect will be everywhere in the court.
"Did you write to Lin Futong?"
"Don't worry, Mr. Jiang. I have sent the letter. I have listed the origin of Chuci and what I did in the capital on the letter. I think Lin Fu will know what it means when he reads it together."
"Send another letter and tell him about Chu Ci's arbitrariness in judging the case. Let him take precautions. Don't let him make great achievements in this area. The old man in the criminal department always likes to fight against us. If he repeatedly slanders , I'm afraid the emperor will also be influenced by him." Prime Minister Zuo ordered.
"Yes... but Mr. Jiang, this Chuci is just a mere mention of the academic officer, it is necessary-"
"Although this man is young, he has a talent. If he can't be used by me, then his hands and feet must be restrained. It will be too late to deal with him when he grows up." Prime Minister Zuo interrupted him.
The man sighed, always feeling that there was something in Zuo Xiang's words, alluding to others in the name of Chu Ci.He had also heard rumors that the right minister seemed to be from the same sect as the left minister, but he didn't know if it was true or not?
"go quickly."
"Yes."
Seeing him go, Zuo Xiang leaned on the chair and sighed, letting himself relax for a while.Then, he stood up and ordered: "Please come in the people outside the door."
"Yes."
The servant agreed to come down, and after a while, he saw a middle-aged man walking towards this side. Judging by his appearance, he was clearly a close friend of Cheng Engong.Just now when he went out to believe that the person passed him by, he couldn't help but have doubts in his heart. By doing this, Prime Minister Zuo was planning to become the boss?
Chang Xiao went to the teahouse ahead to buy some steamed buns, and by the way asked the owner of the teahouse about the way.
