Crossing the Qinghe Landlord gl

Chapter 132 God Bless 2 Years

The Seventh Prince, who was demoted to King Lu, found another crime under the emperor's deliberate suppression and was demoted to the county king. This series of suppression made him no longer able to stand up, without the support of his party members in the court and the new emperor has already sat down Once the throne has been stabilized, he can no longer stir up trouble.

After the new emperor was firmly seated on the throne, the officials' hearts were bought, and it was his turn to buy the people's hearts. Therefore, after the unanimous discussion and approval of Zhongshu's sect, Shang Shuxing also implemented his decree.Among them, the most sensational thing for the people of the world is the exemption of taxes for the fifth-class households in the countryside, the ninth-class households, and the tenth-class households in the city!

According to the household registration management of the Ministry of Households, it is found that [-]% of the people in the world are inferior households, and the rural fifth-class households, urban ninth-class households, and tenth-class households who are not customers and do not have enough food and clothing account for more than half of them.Often these people are the most likely to be incited to revolt and rebellion. For the stability of the country, the new emperor's implementation of this policy is in line with the considerations of most officials, so it was successfully implemented after some controversy.

In March of the same year, along with the document issued by the imperial court on exempting low-class households from taxes, it was also transmitted to the governor's mansion about the special case of granting Zhang He the official title of "Wen Lin Lang" from the ninth rank.

At the beginning of officials' entry into office, they generally start with obtaining the rank of scattered officials, and the titles of scattered officials are only titles that indicate their status, without seals and ribbons, and without directors.For Zhang He, this is rare, but it is also a gift in line with her merits.

However, Fuzhou governor is more clear, this is a symbol of the new emperor to reuse Zhang Tingxuan.

Those who assisted the new emperor to ascend the throne in the past are now also rewarding for their merits. What Zhang Tingxuan has done in Taifu Temple these years can be said to be devoted to his duties, and he has made great contributions, so he deserves to be promoted.But before being promoted to Zhang Tingxuan, he thought of Zhang He who cultivated crops such as sweet potatoes and potatoes.

In order to show honor and appreciation, the new emperor gave Zhang He a loose official title that was said to be useful but useless. He is sure to secure the position of prince, but he is happy to make Zhang Tingxuan's nephew an official!

Moreover, Zhang He was originally an official household. Even though she had never taken the imperial examination, she was recommended and recommended by former Fuzhou governor Tong Liyu, Liu Canjun and many other people. She is also qualified to be an official.

Tong Liyu, the former governor of Fuzhou, was transferred to Sinong Temple as Secretary of Agriculture because of the bumper harvest in Fuzhou, the improvement of agricultural equipment, and the increase in the number of households and Dingkou.

The new governor was originally the Shaoqing of Sinong Temple, but he moved out to be a local official. After being an official in Sinong Temple these years, he knew that he had to deal with the local government. Before he came, he inquired about the affairs of Fuzhou.So after receiving the imperial decree from the emperor to add an official to Zhang He, Dang even personally sent the decree to her.

Zhang He is busy planting corn, peanuts and pumpkins in the field. Corn is suitable for planting in March, and peanuts are not suitable for planting until around the Grain Rain. As for pumpkins, they started planting after Zhang He returned to Qinghe Village. Now Seedlings have grown.

Many people are very curious about these crops, because Zhang He once explained to them that these are the crops of the Fan people brought back from Guangzhou, which can be called "corn" or "jade wheat", as well as peanuts and pumpkins.

Corn is delicious. It can not only be used as food, but also as feed, and it can be made into cornmeal that is easy to preserve.The use of peanuts is even more extensive, but the pumpkin seems to have no other use except for food.

Everyone asked, "Isn't Peanut your baby name?"

Zhang He blinked: "Yes, I named it after Little Peanut's baby name, what's wrong?"

It's okay, just be happy!

Xia Jiniang and Zhang He had seen these crops when they were in Guangzhou and didn't doubt it. After all, Zhang He deliberately took out a lot of fruits from the system to confuse her. Although she felt that something was wrong, she couldn't figure out why. .

Liu Xiu looked at Zhang He with weird eyes for a long time, and then muttered, "I've been in Guangzhou all these years, why haven't I seen him?"

"Ahem, that's because my little lady has never been in contact with those Tibetans." Zhang He said.

"..." How could it be that Liu Xiu has never had contact with the Tibetans, but he didn't want to entangle her in these matters, so let's just assume that she is right!

"Zhang Wenlin Lang, Zhang Wen Lin Lang!"

A yamen servant in Zao Li uniform ran hurriedly along the field ridge from the official road, shouting as he ran, causing the villagers of Qinghe Village who were working in the fields to stop their work and pinch their waists to look out.

Looking at the blurred figure, Zhang He asked in confusion, "Who is that, and who are you calling?"

"It seems to be called Zhang Wenlin Lang. We don't seem to have anyone named Wen Linlang here?" Liu Dashan replied.

Ma Bingshan, who was also a hired worker, sneered, "Wen Linlang is the official name!"

The yamen servant ran to Zhang He's field and called her a few times: "Wen Linlang, you are here, follow me back quickly, the governor is coming soon!"

Zhang He was slightly startled, sure that the yamen servant was calling her, she was also confused: "The governor is here?"

"No! The emperor ordered you to be named Cong Jiupin Wen Linlang, and the governor personally sent the order to you!"

When everyone heard the words, they immediately started discussing, the emperor ordered Zhang He to be appointed as an official, which is a big deal in Qinghe Village!This is even more shocking than someone in Qinghe Village getting a Jinshi and the first rank. Moreover, Zhang He was directly appointed as an official without taking the imperial examination!

Zhang He's legs suddenly became weak. She obviously didn't take the imperial examination. Why did the emperor suddenly appoint her an official? If she entered the officialdom, wouldn't her identity be exposed? !

"Wen Linlang, is this a surprise?" The yamen servant hurriedly said when he saw that her expression was a little grim.

Zhang He came back to his senses, forced a smile, and said, "Yes..."

Even though she was surprised and happy, scared and apprehensive, she still had to figure out what was going on, so she hurried home.As she was walking, she suddenly remembered that "Wen Lin Lang" from the ninth rank did not seem to be an official position, but a scattered official title without a seal or power, only a false name!

Thinking about it this way, her heart seemed to be much more stable.Go home quickly, and the governor will arrive soon.

Zhang He was no longer as nervous when dealing with officials of the governor's level as when he first met Tong Liyu, and the yamen servant had already told her the purpose of the governor's visit, so she was even more calm.

After exchanging greetings with the governor, the governor explained the purpose of coming and the meaning of the emperor's decree. The general idea was that she was recommended by Tong Liyu and others, and she was rewarded for her contribution to the cultivation of "Qinghe rice", potatoes, sweet potatoes and other crops. , a special case of Enfeng.As for the fact that the emperor intends to reuse Zhang Tingxuan, it was just his speculation, and he didn't dare to speak out to Zhang He.

Then the governor inevitably asked her about some farming things to show that he cared about farming, etc. After he learned about the new crops, he moved his mind——Tong Liyu made great achievements with the new crops, and now he has the opportunity to put it in front of her. In front of him, he has no reason not to fight for it!

In his heart, he was amazed by Zhang He's behavior, it seemed that only such strange people could discover things that others could not, and cultivate crops that others didn't even know what it was.He suddenly remembered something that Tong Liyu planned to do when he took office but had no time to do it. He felt that it might be possible to implement it in a few days.

After Zhang He was appointed as an official, not only in Qinghe Village and Zhangjiazhuang, but also in Fuzhou, she has skyrocketed. Anyone who sees her has to politely call her "Zhang Guanren", "Wen Lin Lang" and so on.And she also couldn't calm down for a long time because of the unprecedented thrill and excitement brought about by being an official, until Xia Jiniang asked her: "What if the official's family is on a whim one day, what should I do if I serve you as an official?"

These words were like a basin of cold water, pouring cold water on Zhang He's body and mind, and she immediately calmed down emotionally. She decided it was better to keep a low profile.

But after all, she was appointed an official, even if it is not appropriate to celebrate wildly, she still has to hold a banquet for some relatives and friends.After discussing with Xia Jiniang, she decided to invite Xia Da, Xia Cui's family, Zhang Tingguan, Fang Ying and others, but they had a small dispute over Liu Jinxin's name.

"I have persuaded my mother last time, but she still can't take this step. After this post, she may not come here, and my mother may not be happy to see her." Zhang He said, subconsciously looking at her. A glance at the backyard.

After Zhang He expanded the backyard, he also built a verandah and one or two houses there. Liu Xiu usually stayed there, besides drinking, he was a female celebrity, and occasionally helped the two of them take care of Little Peanut.

Zhang He originally wanted to persuade her not to work so hard, but after Liu Xiu was dispatched to Leizhou and later moved to Guangzhou, she relied on being a female celebrity to subsidize her family.If she doesn't find something to do, she will feel uncomfortable, so Zhang He can only let her go.

"It's up to her whether Auntie comes or not, but after you were granted grace, you didn't send anyone to tell her, and you didn't even invite her to a banquet. How plausible is this? The matter between Auntie and Xiaoniang is theirs. No matter what They should make their own decisions instead of others, how is this different from what Zhang Yan said that hurt them for the sake of the Zhang family and Auntie?"

"Then Yi Jinniang's!"

The invitations were distributed to the people Zhang He invited. The members of the Xia family had not recovered from the joy of Xia Luojin being an official, and received the news that Zhang He had been appointed as an official. Xia Cui was shocked and shocked. Xi, asked: "What kind of official is Wen Linlang? Where does he work?"

"Wen Linlang is a loose official title. He doesn't manage officials and has no salary. People with this title are considered officials." Xia Da explained.

"How does Da Lang's 'Jiang Shi Lang' compare to it?" Xia Er came over to watch the excitement.

"'Wen Lin Lang' is one level higher than 'Jiang Shi Lang', although they are both Cong Jiupin."

"Isn't this inevitable? It has something to do with the shade of the door. Zhang Erlang was born in an official family. How does our Dalang compare with him?" Second Aunt Xia said.

Xia Da knew that she was telling the truth, but she didn't like what she said, so he simply ignored her and said to Old Man Xia: "Father, there is a banquet on the east bed, I want to go."

If it was in the past, Old Man Xia must have hesitated a bit, after all, it was the busy farming season, and the Xia family had a lot of people.But now he can say without hesitation: "You can decide this matter yourself."

Xia Luojin is an official outside, although he can't give much salary back home, but no one in Liujiaqiao Village dares to despise them anymore.Xia Luosi also sent some money back from time to time, and also donated money for Xia Luojin to set up a village school in Liujiaqiao Village. In addition to giving many children the opportunity to read and practice calligraphy, it can also improve the prestige of Xiajia Liujiaqiao Village.

But since the grown-up sons and daughters of Xia's family became relatives, the houses of Xia's family were not enough, and every time they ate, they got several tables.Old man Xia began to think about the issue of separation. Separation is not a separation of families, nor a different family nor wealth. It is to build houses on the two vacant lands of the Xia family, let two of them live in them, and go back to solve the food separately. .

Xia Da didn't know what old man Xia was thinking, after Zhang He asked the hired workers to pick them up in a carriage, they boarded the carriage with Xia Cuishi happily but nervously.They didn't have many chances to ride in a carriage in their life, let alone Zhang He's carriage was not only fast, but also not very bumpy on the mountain roads in the countryside.

When they arrived at Qinghe Village, they got out of the carriage and saw the carriages parked at the door, and their eyes widened. They could imagine that if Xia Luojin could return to his hometown in fine clothes in the future, the same must be true at the door of the Xia family.

On the plaque engraved with "Zhang's house" is hung a plaque with three gilt characters of "Wen Linlang", which is very distinctive.

This plaque was given by the governor, not because of Zhang He's high-profile show, but because the governor gave it to her to hang it at the door to show others, so she couldn't hide it in the house.

Zhang He and Xia Jiniang were receiving the invited guests in front of the door. When they saw Xia Da and Xia Cuishi, they hurriedly invited them in.Xia Dajian only had eleven or two people in the house, but the bustle in front of the door made him think that Zhang He had invited dozens of people.Zhang He explained: "Those are the servants they brought. In fact, today is just a small banquet."

"Father, mother!" Seeing them, Xia Luosi hurried forward, he was just chatting with someone and didn't see them.

"Chou'er, are you here?" Xia Cui said happily, after Xia Luosi got married, she still lived in Fuzhou City, and she couldn't go to the city often, so the mother and son hadn't seen each other for nearly a month.

Xia Cuishi glanced at his side and asked, "Is the bride not here?"

"Mother, I'm going home to tell you that she is pregnant and it's not suitable for her to run around, so I will let her stay at home."

Xia Cuishi was startled, and immediately scolded him with a smile: "Why didn't you tell mother earlier? Mother told you that if you are pregnant, you have to have a baby..."

Hearing this, Xia Da subconsciously glanced at Xia Jiniang's stomach again.Suddenly, a small figure flew out from the crowd, quickly ran between Zhang He and Xia Jiniang and hugged their legs, then looked up at him with his small head up.

"Daddy, Mommy!" Little Peanut clearly called Zhang He and Xia Jiniang.

The two couldn't help smiling when they saw her, Zhang He said: "Come and see the old man."

"Weng Weng." Little Peanut called obediently.

Xia Da felt that his heart was about to melt, and he couldn't help but said cheerfully: "This is a peanut, it's so big!"

"Why don't you play with little grandma in the backyard?" Xia Jiniang asked.

"Little grandma doesn't play with Peanut, so Peanut sneaks out to find Father and Mother!" Little Peanut said.

Zhang He and Xia Jiniang looked at each other, thinking that Liu Xiu must be drinking or in a daze again, so that Little Peanut ran out out of boredom.

"Lang Jun, lady, the eldest lady is here!" Li Jian'er hurried in from the door and told the two of them.

Zhang He was surprised: "Mother is really here?!"
