Ning Yushi was furious when he heard this! When he stood up and was about to speak, Liu Haojia pointed at him in a very impolite way and said, "Master Ning, don't speak for now. I want to ask you something. According to the time, the memorial to the court should have been sent out. Well, why is there no signature from me? Master Ning, you don’t want to take all the credit to yourself, do you?”
Ning Yushi was already furious at this time, and simply said with a broken face: "Everyone who came to provide relief this time has all contributed, but only Mr. Liu and his men have no credit! Because you disobeyed the command and entered the epidemic area without permission, which added more trouble to me. Countless troubles! But let me tell you clearly, not only do you have no credit for this disaster relief, I will also give you a copy when I get back!"
Liu Haojia laughed and said: "Mr. Ning, why don't you say this earlier! I know that you are a civil servant and don't want to see military personnel perform meritorious service, so I use various methods to pour dirty water on me! But I can tell you who wins. I can’t tell you what the negative is! I will naturally tell you about it in front of the emperor when the time comes! I’ll take my leave and wish you all a happy meal!”
After speaking, Liu Haojia turned around and left. Zhang Peilan and others behind him blocked Magistrate Meng who was trying to stop the people behind him, and then they filed out.
After walking a few steps, Liu Haojia heard Ning Yushi shouting loudly: "Too arrogant, too arrogant! I want to interfere with you in front of His Majesty!"
Because all the private rooms had their doors open, the sound of the quarrel between the two of them had already been heard, and many people had already walked out of the private rooms. They saw Liu Haojia leading people straight up the stairs. Some were silent, some were hesitant to speak, and some were indignant, but in the end they could only watch Liu Haojia leave.
After Liu Haojia got out of the gate and mounted his horse, he said: "I have to write a memorial! When you get back, seal up the post and don't bother me with anyone! I made cowpox and no one in the two villages died. He Ning Baiqiang Why are you fighting with me?"
Zhang Peilan said: "Second brother, will the news about cowpox leak out and be cut off by this old guy?"
Liu Haojia said: "No! I have said hello to anyone in Qinghe Village, and they will try their best to use vague language to deal with the county. And I guess no one in the county will ask what we have done. The most important thing is that the person named Ning The memorial has been rushed away for 800 miles. He knows that he can't change his mind about the cowpox! This time, he will have to make them walk around without food! Let's go back to the inn!"
After hearing this, everyone responded energetically, but Wang Xinyi said with a smile: "Sir, your stomach is still empty at this late hour, why not find a restaurant to send two tables to the inn!"
Liu Haojia touched his belly and said generously: "That's a good idea! If you want, just ask for two good tables. We brothers have worked hard, so we can celebrate it as our own family! In addition, you all go to the streets to find out the real situation in various epidemic areas. .Come back and tell me.”
Wang Xinyi received: "This matter is easy to handle! Don't forget that there are two unlucky guys in the Yamen who are looking after the house. It is easiest to get the information from them, which means spending a few taels of silver!"
After everyone returned to the post house, Liu Haojia wrote the memorial behind closed doors. Even when the food and drinks were delivered, they just went out to eat quickly, listened to the news brought by Wang Xinyi, and then continued to work in the room.
Early the next morning, Liu Haojia took people out of Biyang County as soon as the city gate opened. And going back was lighter than when we came, because many things were thrown away or given to the villagers when they were no longer needed. This is the real light carriage and fast horse!
Later, when Magistrate Meng sent someone to the post house, he found that the room was empty. When he learned the news, he was even more upset. He didn't know if he was on the wrong side again this time!
As for Yushi Ning, he quickly wrote an urgent letter after hearing the news and had people rush to send it to the capital. Moreover, they even ignored the original plan of repairing in Biyang County for a few days, and kept urging their men to get on the road quickly. He was afraid that if Liu Haojia returned to the capital first, the villain would sue him first!
But what he didn't expect was that Liu Haojia did not attack first after returning to the capital. Instead, he quietly changed his clothes and sneaked into the city before entering the city. After sending everyone else home quietly, he contacted Zhang Jia to convey the message to Emperor Wanli. Message for meeting.
Emperor Wanli was very uncomfortable with Liu Haojia's departure, because the people who often gave him advice, made money, and gave him a lot of fresh knowledge were no longer around, so he always felt that something was missing!
Especially this time, there was no news at all after he went out. All Emperor Wanli received were memorials from Yushi Ning, so Emperor Wanli also wanted to know the true situation in the epidemic area. So he immediately arranged a free time for Liu Haojia to enter the palace.
After Liu Haojia entered the palace, he was directly led by a eunuch to the front of Emperor Wanli's palace. The eunuch was so respectful to him that he even confiscated the reward Liu Haojia gave him. Finally, he bowed respectfully and left.
Zhang Jia at the palace gate naturally saw this scene with his eyes. He stepped forward to salute and received with a smile: "Master Liu, don't worry, they are doing this to thank you for running the retirement village. I guess you will be in the palace in the future." It will be much easier to walk! But I lost a lot of weight this time when I went out. It seems that this job is not easy!"
Liu Haojia returned the gift with a wry smile and received it: "It's not hard to say that it's hard work, but the thoughts in my heart are too heavy! After all, smallpox is invisible. It's not like floods and droughts where you can see where the problem is, so this heart always It’s hanging in mid-air!”
Zhang Jia nodded and said, "Yes, smallpox doesn't look at people! Forget it, let's not talk here. Long live the Lord has been waiting for you for a long time!"
The two entered the palace. After Liu Haojia paid homage, Emperor Wanli eagerly received: "Liu Aiqing, I received a memorial a few days ago, saying that the smallpox around Biyang has subsided. Is this true?"
Liu Haojia received: "Thanks to Long Live Lord, smallpox has indeed subsided!"
Then he explained in detail what he had collected. After hearing this, Emperor Wanli breathed a sigh of relief and said: "So that's it. It seems that this disaster has really passed! It's just that more than a thousand people died of illness, which is considered relatively minor!"
At this point, Emperor Wanli seemed to have just come to his senses and received: "Why did you return to Beijing early and why didn't you come back with Ning Yushi and the others? Did something happen?"
Liu Haojia received it with a wry smile: "I'm afraid that I have been targeted by Ning Yushi! Before setting off, he told his colleagues that I would not get any credit! Later, when I arrived in Biyang County, I found out that he was still I specifically added a private message to the express delivery package to the county magistrate Meng Jitang to let him keep an eye on me! He didn't even notify me to attend the celebration banquet before leaving! In addition, long live my lord, you have also seen that there is no minister in the memorial. Attached.”
