Royal Gold Medal County Magistrate

But now, even if Yan Guoan was wrong, what could be done?

Since things had come to this, there was absolutely no way they could lower their heads; they could only stiffen their necks and endure it.

Fortunately, after tossing and turning until the second half of the night, they finally recovered.

The water flowed continuously, and the swill was carried away.

Everyone was as if mourning their parents; when one person fell into the water, many were dragged in along with them.

Their bodies were covered with egg flowers, shredded vegetables, oil, and all sorts of strange things.

Those who managed to avoid being soaked, even if they carefully dodged, were splashed with dirty water.

Desperate people even started washing their faces with the dirty water... trying to wash the swill off their faces.

Cleanliness and dignity vanished at this moment.

Fortunately... fortunately, everyone was the same.

Everyone losing face was the same as no one losing face! People could always comfort themselves like this.

Even the guards present felt that their eyes had been dirtied.

Even going to the battlefield would be better than this; it was too disgusting....

.....................

The next morning, after the early court session.

Emperor Jing and Fang Zheng Yi and others came to the Yimen Gate again in a carriage.

At this time, everyone's spirits were at their limit.

However, Fang Zheng Yi and Emperor Jing and others did not notice anything unusual. After all, it was normal to be mentally exhausted after kneeling in the water for a day and a night.

It was just that many people's hair seemed particularly disheveled, which made Fang Zheng Yi feel a little strange.

He looked at Li Yuan Zhao in confusion.

Li Yuan Zhao didn't say anything, just grinned, revealing two rows of white teeth.

Emperor Jing said, "How is it? Have you all thought it through? Are you going to continue kneeling, or are you going to return to the palace with me?"

Yang Yingcai's lips were chapped, and he said in a trembling voice, "Your Majesty, if Your Majesty does not agree to our requests, we would rather die than rise."

Emperor Jing didn't care.

What if they all died! Could it be that I have no one else to use?

A bunch of scribes really took themselves seriously!

Emperor Jing laughed and said, "Good! All of you ministers are people of integrity; I admire you very much!"

"Come on! Bring up all the Prosperous Age Sweet Potatoes and let the ministers have some food. These are all pillars of the country; don't let them starve!"

At this time, the water level had receded by half, only reaching people's knees.

An eunuch came down from the carriage, holding a plate of roasted sweet potatoes in his hand, and directly waded into the crowd to distribute them one by one.

When the Hanlin scholars smelled the aroma of the sweet potatoes at this time, a trace of radiance appeared in their eyes.

This time, no one refused, silently taking the roasted sweet potatoes and eating them nianiania.

Seeing that they finally ate the sweet potatoes, Fang Zheng Yi smiled with satisfaction.

Very good! This way, they can continue.

Otherwise, how could they play if they didn't have the strength?

Fang Zheng Yi thought for a while: "Your Majesty, I suggest that you give your colleagues more, one is not enough to eat."

"After all, they have been soaking in the water for a day and a night, no one can stand such a situation. I suggest that each person eat three, which is just right, and eating more will be too full."

Emperor Jing looked at Fang Zheng Yi with increasing appreciation.

Although Fang Zheng Yi was sharp-tongued, he was still kind-hearted. Otherwise, how could the people of Peach Blossom Village trust him so much?

Then Emperor Jing got up and said loudly: "Gentlemen, you all asked me to stay away from Fang Zheng Yi, but these sweet potatoes were obtained by Fang Qing for your sake."

"Just now, he was still afraid that you would not have enough to eat, and begged me to prepare more for you."

"You keep saying that I should be close to virtuous ministers and stay away from petty people, but the petty person in your mouth is busy saving your lives?"

"What about you! You can't wait to put Fang Zheng Yi to death!"

"Is this your gentleman's way?"

The Hanlin scholars didn't speak, looking at the sweet potatoes in their hands and getting entangled. They didn't expect that this thing was sent by Fang Zheng Yi.

Did this dog thing have such good intentions?

But they didn't get entangled for long, and then started eating again.

Anyway, they had already eaten it, was there any difference between eating one bite and eating two bites? They were really hungry now!

Fang Zheng Yi smiled and raised his voice slightly: "Your Majesty is too modest. The world slanders me, insults me, despises me, and hates me. I endure him, yield to him, let him be, and bear with him."

"I don't care how you adults see me, but if they affect serving Your Majesty because of me."

"Then I would really be ashamed to death!"

Damn! Bootlicker! The Hanlin scholars cursed in their hearts in unison.

Emperor Jing twitched the corner of his mouth and got into the carriage silently.

Only you kid can talk! Can't you say so much in private?

Seeing this, Fang Zheng Yi quickly ordered the carriage to go to Emperor Jing's carriage.

He leaned over and asked: "Your Majesty, are you going back?"

"Otherwise? Stay here and watch them kneel?" Emperor Jing said.

"I have prepared a good show... maybe it can make them change their minds later. After all, Dengjin Fang is a mixed bag of people, and the conditions are not good."

"I am worried that Your Majesty will not sleep well in such an environment. It is better to solve the problem as soon as possible and return to the palace as soon as possible."

"This way, it will be more convenient to handle official duties."

"Your Majesty is already tired enough on weekdays."

Emperor Jing touched his chin and looked at the roof of the car, falling into deep thought.

It would be great if Guo Banban could be replaced by Fang Zheng Yi.......

Fang Zheng Yi was a little puzzled... why didn't he speak? He asked: "Your Majesty? What do you think?"

Emperor Jing came back to his senses: "Yes, yes! Okay, then I will follow your opinion, and I will wait to see your good show!"

Fang Zheng Yi happily got back into his carriage.

This is trust! It's worth writing memorials every day.

When the good show starts later, try to drive this group of dog things back.

Dengjin Fang is really not a good place, it is uncomfortable to live here, and it is also uncomfortable to commute!

Each person had three sweet potatoes, and the Hanlin scholars had eaten them all clean.

Fang Zheng Yi sat cross-legged outside the carriage, looking down at everyone without saying a word.

The Hanlin scholars were not to be outdone and looked up at him.

"he ~ tui!" A mouthful of spittle fell into the water.

Damn! This dog thing Fang Zheng Yi!

The Hanlin scholars looked at the wonderful parabola and dared to be angry but dared not speak. The emperor was still in the car.

It's not appropriate to scold people now.

They could only try to continue to kill Fang Zheng Yi with their eyes.

Fang Zheng Yi grinned, turned around and returned to the carriage, took out a tray.

A roast chicken, a sweet potato, and a pot of wine.

He tore off a chicken leg and ate it, and threw the bones into the water after eating.

Then he started peeling the sweet potato, and constantly threw the sweet potato peel into the water.

This time, everyone really couldn't help it, and seemed to remember something, and scolded.

"Fang Zheng Yi! Did you pour swill into the water last night?"

"Huh?" Fang Zheng Yi tilted his head.

"What swill?"

Yang Yingcai looked at his confused appearance, which didn't seem to be fake, and didn't participate in this matter, and closed his eyes to continue resting.

The others refused to let it go: "Don't pretend! You must have been the one who poured swill into the water last night! Don't let us catch you!"

"Fang Thief, I will never let you go!"

"Ru Mu Bi Ye!"

Fang Zheng Yi looked at Li Yuan Zhao, and immediately understood what was going on.

Good fellow, you learned it quite quickly, is this the work you prepared? Naive!

But this black pot can't be carried by myself!

He said to everyone indifferently: "Bullshit! If it were this official, I would directly find someone to put a shit pot on your heads! Would I still need to pour such naive swill?"

"This official has not done anything excessive to you, right? You have always been shouting to fight and kill first! The things you eat were also prepared by me at the request of His Majesty, you say! What reason do I have to harm you!"

"Letting you kneel in Dengjin Fang is just to let you see Yan Guoan's so-called effective governance, a group of closed-minded pedants!"

Everyone was silent.

Indeed... if it was Fang Zheng Yi, it would only be more vicious, and he just ate this guy's sweet potato, forget it, don't scold him this time!

.........................

"Gulu..."

After an unknown amount of time, the peace in front of Yimen Gate was broken.
