Sister Han is good at farming
Chapter 105 This... this is not good!
"Zhou Zheng, Zhou Guanggan, the prefect Zhou, haha!"
In the capital, a well-dressed young man with a flushed face and half-squinted his eyes was pointing at Zhou Zheng up and down.
"Fu Yuanhao, I advise you to quit while you are ahead!"
Zhou Zheng threw the teacup in his hand onto the table with a "bang". The tea in the cup splashed everywhere, and the lid on the teacup bounced a few times, making a crisp sound.
When Fu Yuanhao saw this, the smile on his face grew bigger.
"Are you angry already? I thought you were so capable? It turns out that you have been hiding in that remote mountain area of Lulin and working hard, but all you get is an empty hat. The prefect of Jianghuai, haha, it's so funny! Everyone in the world knows that Jianghuai Prefecture has been empty for a long time! Not only that, you see, as soon as you put on the official hat of the prefect of Jianghuai, even the surrounding Lulin Prefecture has been deserted!
"She is a wife-killer, but your tyranny is killing the people around you! I think you should stop being a prefect and just go back to being a dandy young man who only eats and waits for death! Don't harm the people anymore, seriously!"
"Fu Yuanhao, I'm going to fight you!"
Zhou Zheng, unable to bear it any longer, stepped forward, grabbed Fu Yuanhao by the collar, and punched him in the face.
"Killing people is just a small thing. Is there anyone who is so mean as you? Don't think that just because you have a grandfather who is the Minister of Finance, I am afraid of you!"
"You're just a wimp. Do you think I, Fu Yuanhao, would be afraid of you? If you want to fight, just fight. Why bother with your elders and family? What? Do you still want to go home and cry and complain?"
Fu Yuanhao reacted and hit back rudely!
"My two lords, please stop fighting. Peace brings wealth!"
The waiter in the shop nearby saw this and tried to dissuade them.
But the two people who were already furious would not listen to advice.
Not to mention the child, he even didn't give face to the shopkeeper.
Both guests were well-known and held official positions. If any one of them made any mistakes in their restaurant, they would be in big trouble.
"What are you still standing there for? Go and ask the military officer to come over!"
The shopkeeper was so anxious that he yelled at the waiter.
"Okay, boss!" The waiter rushed out quickly after receiving the order.
The two people who were fighting were finally separated by people from the military department.
When Minister Fu learned that his grandson had fought with Zhou Zheng in the restaurant, he was so angry that his beard was shaking. When he returned home, he didn't even bother to change his official uniform and immediately used the family rules to reprimand the useless person.
"How can you mock Zhou Zheng? No matter how bad he is, he is still a third-rank official, just two levels lower than your grandfather. How can you, a seventh-rank official in the Ministry of Rites, have the courage to look down on him? Besides, he has real political achievements. Not to mention you young people, even we old guys have to admit our respect!
After drinking two liang of yellow soup, you don’t know how much you weigh, right? You evil creature! You really make me angry!”
Minister Fu cursed and hit Fu Yuanhao with a ruler.
Zhou Che did not punish his third brother according to family rules, but just looked at him coldly.
"He's really going backwards as he gets older. He's already 30 years old but he's still fighting like a child. He doesn't even care about the dignity of being an official anymore."
Zhou Zheng hung his head and said nothing. He had been afraid of this elder brother since he was a child, and now that he had something to hide, he didn't dare to argue with him, for fear that he would notice something.
Zhou Che thought his third brother had improved, so he said a few words and let it go. Who knew he would surprise him the next day?
"Your Majesty, I would like to resign." In the imperial study, Zhou Zheng went straight to the point without any preparation.
Murong Jinyang picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea, then asked calmly, "My dear, why is this happening?"
"Fu Yuanhao said that once I put on the official hat of Jianghuai prefect, even the surrounding Lulin Prefecture would be deserted! He is a wife killer, but my domineering aura will scare away the people around me!"
"Puchi!" Murong Jinyang spat out a mouthful of tea.
He wiped his lips with the silk scarf handed to him by Eunuch Liu, coughed twice, and sat up straight.
"Nonsense! What do you mean by the domineering aura that kills the people around you? It's nonsense! You are the trump card in my hand."
Zhou Zheng bowed deeply, "Your Majesty, I still want to be a county magistrate. At least I have something to do and feel at ease. Unlike me now, every day I go to the restaurant to drink tea or go to the theater to listen to music, and I am ridiculed by others. It's too boring."
"My dear, do you think you have too much free time?"
Murong Jinyang picked up the cup of tea again and took a sip.
"I dare not!" Zhou Zheng straightened his back, lowered his eyebrows and bowed.
"You kid, I think you are very daring!" Murong Jinyang scolded him with a smile in a good mood. Seeing that Zhou Zheng's back was straight and his body did not move at all, a gleam of light flashed in his eyes.
"I do have a job that is not too tiring, but I wonder if you dare to take it?"
When Zhou Zheng heard this, he raised his head suddenly.
"Hmm? Do you dare to answer it, my dear?"
"At the emperor's command!" Zhou Zheng bowed deeply again and responded happily.
"I just said that you are my trump card, and I was not joking. I hope you will not let me down." Murong Jinyang's aura suddenly changed, and his voice was so solemn that every word seemed to weigh a thousand pounds.
"Your servant must do his best!"
Murong Jinyang stood up immediately and said, "Great! I admire you, a capable and willing minister! You have been in Lulin for a while, so you should understand the local situation."
When Zhou Zheng heard Lu Lin's words, his heart almost jumped out of his throat.
Murong Jinyang walked out from the imperial desk, put one hand behind his back and the other on his chest, and paced in the imperial study.
"Now Yuanxiang Prefecture, Lulin Prefecture, Jianghuai Prefecture and Jiangxia Prefecture are almost in a desperate situation due to drought and epidemic. However, Jiangxia Prefecture is located in the frontier, and the defense of the border cannot be lost. Although the soldiers guarding the border during the drought have Huiyuan in the north and Yunyang in the south to provide them with assistance, the journey is still long and the waste is huge.
In times of disaster, it is fine to use the whole country's strength to overcome it. But in years of good weather and good harvests, I still hope that Jiangxia Prefecture itself, as well as Jianghuai and Lulin Prefectures, can solve the problem of food and grass for the soldiers guarding the border."
"Your Majesty, this..."
"I order you to be the prefect of Jiangxia, Jianghuai and Lulin, and be responsible for all major affairs in these three prefectures. Are you willing to accept it?"
Murong Jinyang stood in front of Zhou Zheng condescendingly and asked him solemnly.
"I am willing to accept it!" Zhou Zheng gritted his teeth and agreed.
"My dear minister, you are indeed my trump card! You are so brave! After three months of hard work, the epidemic has been eradicated. I heard that since July, there have been several heavy rains in Yuanxiang Prefecture, Lulin Prefecture, Jianghuai Prefecture, and Jiangxia Prefecture. This time, I hope that my dear minister can take office as soon as possible!"
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
Murong Jinyang frowned, "In addition, Fu Yuanhao, the Right Secretary of the Ministry of Rites, was appointed as the county magistrate of Qingshui County in Lulin Prefecture, with a rank of seventh grade. Isn't he mocking you? I want to see what achievements he can make starting from the same place and the same official position!"
Zhou Zheng panicked and immediately pleaded for him, "Your Majesty, Fu Yuanhao just said that after drinking..."
Faced with Murong Jinyang's majestic gaze, Zhou Zheng could not continue.
"You are a seventh-rank county magistrate, so why can't he be one? My dear minister, please don't plead for him! These ignorant young men of honor should be sent out to gain some experience!"
Murong Jinyang stepped forward and raised his eyebrows, "Lord Zhou, I will give you a chance to take revenge. All the meritorious young men who mocked you and said bad things about you before, as long as you can name them, I will bring them all to Jianghuai to train under you, how about it?"
Zhou Zheng's eyelids twitched, "Your Majesty, this... this is not good!"
