"The emperor was entrusted with the mission of heaven, and the edict said: Taoyuan County Magistrate Fang Zhengyi has made immeasurable merits to alleviate the floods of the Jianjiang River and save all people from danger. I also remember that since he took charge of Taoyuan County, he has done his best to do his duty, be virtuous, and benefit the people." support."
"I feel very relieved. I give Taoyuan County Magistrate Fang Zheng a Taoyuan County man. He has 200 acres of Yongye land and 200 people to live in. He is appointed as the Young Master of Zhan's Mansion. He will enter the palace immediately. There must be no mistake. I admire this!"
After the little eunuch recited, he looked around. Everyone stood there as if they were petrified.
Fang Zhengyi also looked at him in shock.
The little eunuch felt guilty and whispered: "Mr. Fang County...do you accept the order?"
Before Fang Zheng could reply, the crowd suddenly let out a whimpering sound.
Someone cried and howled: "The county grandpa is going to be taken away! The county grandpa can't leave! We can't live without you!!"
"No one can take the master away! It's all this damn eunuch's fault! Hack him to death!"
"Yes, yes, yes! Hurry and kill him! Let's just pretend that nothing happened!"
....
With the excitement of the crowd, the crowd became restless, and the people behind them who had things in their hands kept trying to rush to the front, trying to kill the little eunuch.
If he disappears, just think that this imperial edict has not been delivered! It takes a day to delay, but the county magistrate can't go anywhere!
The little eunuch was shaking like chaff, and sat on his knees limply on the ground. He looked at Fang Zhengyi with eyes pleading for help, and held up the imperial edict tremblingly in one hand.
"Fang...Master Fang...hurry...accept the order quickly, we won't be able to bear it anymore..."
After hearing his terrible lines, Fang Zhengyi came back to his senses.
He immediately yelled at the crowd: "Shut up! I'm not dead yet! Do you have any rules?"
The common people immediately stopped and some people in the front row kept wiping their tears and murmured in a low voice: "Then you can't leave either..."
As soon as Fang Zheng heard this, he loudly said: "I'll give it all away! I am now a Taoyuan County man, why are you panicking! No one else can come after I leave!"
Turning around, he quickly picked up the little eunuch and said flatteringly: "Hey, hey, father-in-law, thank you for your hard work... May I ask how your majesty knew that I had sent people to provide disaster relief?"
The young eunuch forced a smile and said, "Master Fang, you're too polite... You have to go to the palace and ask. We will be responsible for passing on the order, and we don't know anything else..."
Fangzheng said with all his heart, it was probably Li Long who sold him out! Damn Li Long, let me see you again and skin you!
Damn it, even though Taoyuan County was granted a seal, Taoyuan County was quietly expanded to a large area due to my constant violations.
It would be a big deal if this shit was discovered! ?
We'll talk about the road ahead later...it also solves a worry...
Fang Zheng took a deep breath, held the little eunuch's hands, and said with a smile: "My father-in-law, don't panic. The poor and remote areas of Taoyuan County are full of unscrupulous people. My father-in-law is frightened."
"However, our Taoyuan County is quite beautiful. If my father-in-law is interested, you can visit us for two days, and I will accompany you throughout the whole journey!"
The young eunuch tried his best to smile: "Mr. Fang County is joking, we have to return to the palace immediately... You can pack up and leave as soon as possible..."
"Understand, understand! Father-in-law, thank you for your hard work... Zhang Biao!"
Zhang Biao walked over with intelligent eyes, Fang Zheng made a gesture, and Zhang Biao quickly stuffed a bag of silver into the little eunuch's cuff.
Unexpectedly, the silver was too heavy and fell instantly. The little eunuch accidentally fell to the ground...
At this time, the little eunuch finally stopped and burst into tears: "Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu..Fang County man, we have no enmity or enmity with you... What do you mean by this!"
Fang Zheng, with a dark face, kicked Zhang Biao and cursed in a low voice: "Idiot! Who told you to give so much! Just give me a few taels and you'll be fine!"
Zhang Biao laughed foolishly and quickly squatted down to withdraw the money...
Fang Zhengyi's face turned darker...
Helping the young eunuch up, Fang Zhengyi said apologetically: "Hey, look, the people around me...it's not a good place here, don't be offended." He pointed to his head.
Then he started to rummage around his body, and he actually found five copper coins and stuffed them into the little eunuch's sleeves.
The little eunuch listened to the crisp sound of the copper plate in his sleeve and cried mournfully: "Mr. Fang County, you'd better take it back... We will be punished if the superiors find out."
Fang Zhengyi looked upright and said: "Father, please don't be polite, I am very strict with my words!"
"No way!"
"Oh, this is really hard work, father-in-law!"
As he spoke, Fang Zheng put his hand into the little eunuch's sleeve again and took out a handful at random.
Taking a closer look, I saw two taels of silver plus five copper coins.
Fang Zheng's eye twitched twice, and then he stuffed it into his chest with an expressionless expression.
The little eunuch looked at Fang Zhengyi in disbelief, opened his mouth wide, and said in a trembling voice: "Mr. Fang County, we can go..."
Fang Zhengyi waved his hand casually: "Let's go, let's go!"
Upon hearing this, the little eunuch hurriedly mounted his horse and galloped away...
Xiao Tao came over and said with worry on her face: "Young Master... This is not good, he is from the palace."
Fang Zhengyi sighed helplessly: "So what, I'll offend you anyway, it's better to offend and die."
Then he glanced at the crowd in front of him and said loudly: "Everyone, go home! Don't worry, Taoyuan County is still under my rule! Go back and do your own thing!"
Some people came over cautiously and said worriedly: "Master, you won't leave Taoyuan County, will you...?"
Everyone looked at Fang Zhengyi with hopeful eyes.
Fang Zheng was inevitably moved at this moment, but he still kept a straight face and said fiercely: "What's wrong! I just want to leave Taoyuan County! Are you not happy when I get promoted!? Smile!"
With a "Wow" sound, the crowd suddenly started crying.
The people of Taoyuan County began to cry out for help as if their own father had died.
"What will we do if you leave!!"
"I want to go to Beijing to complain! Master, you can't leave. I won't be able to live if you leave!"
"What will you do if you leave my daughter? She is only eight years old and she will marry you in the future...!"
"Bah! Your daughter deserves it too. My daughter is fifteen years old! Come and see her! Come and see her!"
.......
Seeing that the words were getting more and more outrageous, Fang Zhengyi finally couldn't stand it anymore, his expression softened, and he said helplessly: "Okay! Okay! I already know this, I just went to Beijing! If I leave, it doesn't mean I won't come back!"
"I'm done with it all! If you keep making noise, I'll just stay in the capital! It's so noisy!"
"wait for me......."
Before he finished speaking, the crowd suddenly dispersed, and the people fled in all directions.
Look at the mess left on the ground.
Fang Zheng gave a wry smile and said, "Oh, these unruly people..."
