The feudal lord is on Taobao every day

Chapter 202 Time flies

"Your Highness is just joking," Grand Master Yang laughed again, and said, "Your Highness hates evil like an enemy, and loves the people like a son. His Majesty is the one."

Although Grand Master Yang said some polite words, but his words were sincere, with an attitude of admiration, even if he didn't have any intention of following him, Xie Jing'an's eyes lit up when he heard it, and he wished to abduct him and take him to Mozhou immediately .

It’s just that I can only think about it. Let’s not talk about whether the prince will spare him if he really kidnaps him. Emperor Kang Ping will not be able to pass the test. He finally put eye drops on the prince. He came out, but he didn't want to go back to face Emperor Kang Ping again. Who knows if he would have a whim, and dragged him to ask the Lin family if he did it on purpose.

With a little regret, Xie Jingan smiled and said kindly: "What did Grand Master Yang say? As a feudal lord, I should protect the safety of the common people. I should not thank Grand Master Yang."

Hearing these words, Grand Master Yang's smile deepened, and his eyes also had some meaning, but after all, he didn't say any more words of thanks, but you came and went and chatted some gossip, then turned around and went back to the city.

Grand Master Yang turned around and left, Xie Jingan did not start directly, but sat up straight and watched Grand Master Yang go away, Lin Yan was also by his side, with a thoughtful look on his face, he said for a while: "What is Grand Master Yang's intention? He came out of the city on purpose. Sending His Highness a trip, could it be that he intends to serve His Highness?"

"Maybe," Xie Jing'an said with a smile, "but even if he has the heart, I'm afraid he won't be able to leave Chang'an within three to five years. After all, he is a celebrity with countless disciples and children. Neither the father nor the crown prince will be willing to let him go. of."

Lin Yan also knew that it was unlikely, but it was a pity after all, so he couldn't help sighing, but Xie Jingan let go, looked at him and said, "Sigh, although there are no famous people under my king's command, there are also many capable people People, after this king has repaired the school and forced the common people to go to school, are you afraid that there will be no capable people to do errands for this king?"

Xie Jing'an set off from Mozhou back to Chang'an in June, and it was almost November when he returned to Mozhou, the snow had fallen, and the whole Mozhou was covered in white.

During his absence, Wei Changshi, Liu Zhubo and the others became even more busy. More and more workshops were built, and the number of people who migrated increased exponentially. The autumn harvest was even more bumper. The granaries were so full that we had to build a few more to put them down.

Now that Xie Jing'an has money, food and people, he has completely got rid of the embarrassing situation and started to work hard.

The expansion of the city and the construction of the school were carried out according to the plan written by him. Although there were some twists and turns in the middle, fortunately everything was being realized according to his vision.

……

Time flies, three years passed in a blink of an eye, Taishi Yang received five resignation papers, and finally got rid of the job of the Taishi, and was able to take the whole family northward, and rushed to Mozhou for fun.

It was September when they arrived in Demozhou, which was the autumn harvest time. From the time they entered Hebei Road, they could see the people coming and going. The well-dressed scholars, or the merchants in silk and silk, are all in a hurry. Looking at their appearance, they wish they could grow two more hands and two feet.

"This is Mozhou." After driving for nearly half a year, I finally arrived in Mozhou. Looking at the prosperous scene and the towering city walls, Grand Master Yang couldn't bear it even if he knew that Mozhou was not the small and dilapidated city it used to be. Zhu Zhu sighed in admiration, and said: "If my father didn't know that we came to Mozhou, I would have thought that we had arrived in Yangzhou and other big cities. This King Shun really has the ability to govern the world. In just over four years, Mozhou has developed to At this level, it’s no wonder there are various rumors in the market, if I didn’t meet him for my father and know that he is a person, I would really think that he is a white bearded fairy who came down to save sentient beings.”

Grand Master Yang sighed, and carefully looked at the scene outside through the opened car curtain. He saw that the street outside was wide and the crowds were rubbing shoulders. There is no color in the face, although not everyone has a ruddy complexion, but at least one look can tell that they are not short of food and drink. This kind of situation is not easy in this era. Even if Grand Master Yang has heard of it, he will see it with his own eyes I couldn't help being extremely surprised, and my heart was shocked.

Just as Grand Master Yang wanted to get out of the carriage to see better, there was a sudden noise outside.

A team of patrolling city guards walked up to them and drove them impatiently, "How did you drive the car? Do you know that you have walked to the left lane? This is the wrong way and it is against the rules. Hurry up and go back to the right lane. .”

Why does the left lane go against the right lane? This is the first time Grand Master Yang has heard such a saying, and he can't help but feel a little confused. This Mozhou is really different from other places, and even the carriage has to control which way it goes?

Taishi Yang was curious, so he listened to the flattery of the servants driving the car outside: "This military master, the younger one came from Chang'an with my master, and he came back to Mozhou for the first time. Lord, please show kindness and tell the little one, what is the regulation of the left lane and the right lane? Is there any rule for driving a carriage in Mozhou?"

"It turns out they are from Chang'an." Hearing that they were not locals, the city patrol sergeant's expression softened a lot, and he even smiled a little. He said: "I don't know that the rules here are also common. Because there are many workshops here, there are many horse-drawn carriages. No matter how wide the road is, it is not enough to walk. From time to time, horse-drawn carriages bump into people, or bump into people head-on. No one would give in to anyone else, and later His Royal Highness Shun made the rules, and then it became smooth, otherwise our brothers would have a headache just because of this blocked road every day."

Although the sergeant who spoke was calm and tight, he couldn't hide the pride on his face. Grand Master Yang just happened to lift the curtain of the carriage and got out of the carriage. He couldn't help laughing at this scene, but at the same time he felt a little rejoiced. It seems that He came at the right time this time, King Shun is a hero worthy of allegiance than the crown prince.

Since Grand Master Yang came to serve, he couldn't help but want to ask more questions. He waved his hand to let the servants who supported him back down, and said with a smile: "I came all the way from Chang'an, and I really saw that the people in Mozhou are different from other places. Even a scholar was in a hurry, as if something big happened at home, if it was one or two, it would be fine, but the old man looked at this road, whether it was a businessman or a commoner, it was the same, and he didn't know why. Reasonable, I hope the military master will teach me."

Grand Master Yang said that although he did not mean words, he looked like a scholar in his conversation and dress. In this era, literature is valued over martial arts. Besides, whoever works for King Shun doesn't know that the literati that King Shun can command are all insane, sergeant Immediately, his eyes lit up, and his whole body became more enthusiastic. He even stretched out his hand to hold Grand Master Yang as if he was afraid that people would run away, and said with a silly smile: "This gentleman is too polite to say that, we are all rough people, how can we treat him like that?" Sir teach this word."

The sergeant spoke a few more words modestly before he got to the point, and said: "Sir, I don't know that the reason why our people here are different from other places is probably due to the many affairs of your highness's fiefdom. Take the scholars you mentioned, the reason why they I was in a hurry because of the heavy workload in the school, there were endless lessons every day, endless books, endless exercises, and a small test in January, and a big test in April. If you fail the test, you will have to wait. Re-study together with the newly enrolled students, who would dare to lose such a big man because of the reputation of scholars? Therefore, every scholar who enters the school dare not slack off for a moment, even after leaving the school, he will never leave the book Hands, to see one more moment is a moment."

Grand Master Yang himself is a literati, and he has also read books for many years. He thinks that he worked extremely hard during the period from the enlightenment to the imperial examination. I couldn't help being a little speechless, and sighed: "No wonder I look at those scholars who look like they want to have two more hands. The schoolwork is so heavy, it is not easy to give birth to other thoughts, but it is easy to teach people rigidly. Wouldn’t it be worth the loss if you don’t know how to be flexible?”

The sergeant didn't understand, he shook his head and said: "I'm a warrior, I can barely read a few words after being urged by the superior, I don't understand the rest, anyway, it's all set by His Royal Highness, the rules he set, Naturally, it’s all for the good of the fiefdom, and we don’t need to know much, just follow the established rules and do business.”

This is also true, but this sergeant can also read and write. Grand Master Yang was taken aback and asked: "Does one have to read and write in the army now? How many recruits can be recruited this year?"

This is not the first time the sergeant has heard this kind of words, but now he still feels proud when he hears it, he laughed twice and said: "If this is true, then there are many scholars like us warriors who have not yet learned how to study, can we still serve the country? Of course, we didn’t know how to read before joining the army, but were forced to learn after entering the army. This is also the rule set by His Royal Highness. If you want to be promoted, you must be able to read. Although there is no need for a monthly test, but When you are promoted, you have to take a test. If you pass the test, you will be promoted. If you fail the test, you will not be promoted. We serve in the army to defend our home and country. Who doesn't want to be a general, so the big guys have to use the spirit of martial arts to study hard. "

When it came to the army, the sergeant was full of spirits and eloquent, but he always said what he could say. After hearing this, Grand Master Yang sighed more and more, and kept asking people for a long time. The sergeant who asked really had nothing to say. Only then did he let him go.

Returning to the carriage, Grand Master Yang couldn't calm down, so he opened the curtain and said to his sons: "My father met King Shun three years ago, and I knew he was different from the other princes of the Holy Majesty. The person who does important things, the father really didn't miss the point, but the father was born in the East Palace, and he was working as a grand teacher, so I don't know if King Shun will trust the father."

Grand Master Yang was worried, and the sons of Grand Master Yang were about to say something to comfort him, when they saw the carriage of the female relatives behind him stop suddenly, Miss Yang jumped out of the carriage and ran to the side of the road One of the girls went and shouted happily: "Miss Lin."
