Chapter 3296 Fear
Last year, Dajin’s financial revenue was good. Especially in recent years, due to the promotion of new rice and new wheat varieties, the grain yields in various places have been high. Although we can’t make white rice open for everyone to eat, life is indeed much better.
Therefore, the Ministry of Work and the Ministry of Rites wanted to build the Daming Palace, and all the ministers agreed to allocate funds.
In order to speed up the progress and to ensure that the project funds are used for the project, after consultation, Baiguan decided to send a grant from the province to manage the matter. The matter was selected by the Zhanshifu.
Zhan Shifu favored Bai Shan at first.
Not only because of his good grades in scientific examinations and good math skills, but also because he has served as a county magistrate and has experience in building docks.
They are all big projects, and there must be some similarities between them, so Bai Shan is the most suitable.
Because of the prince's words, this matter turned around and fell on the other party's head, but few people knew that Zhan Shifu was interested in Bai Shan at the beginning.
So Fang Wei sighed while packing his things. Why was he so unlucky to be selected?
Bai Shan didn't know that this matter had anything to do with him. He handled the matter in his hands well, and thought that he had promised to take Zhou Man to eat the Ziyang steamed pot at the end of the street today, and he moved a little faster.
As soon as he put away his things, he said goodbye to the crowd.
When he was gone, the remaining three looked at each other and sighed.
Seeing this, Fang Wei said: "What are you sighing? It's me who went to Daming Palace."
"Can't I sympathize with you?"
"Okay, okay, you're going to the Daming Palace tomorrow, how about we treat you to a drink in the Zhuangyuan Building tonight?"
"What's the point of the Zhuangyuan Building? Be more generous and directly invite the wine from the Spring Wind Building."
"That's right, Master Bai won't go anyway, there's no need to go to the Zhuangyuan Building, just go to the Spring Breeze Building."
Bai Shan joined the job, and the three people in the business and his well-connected colleagues in the province invited Bai Shan to drink and eat, and Bai Shan naturally invited him back.
Both times at the restaurant, and later when someone asked Bai Shan to ask for a drink in the Spring Wind Building, he was rejected.
Although it was only once, everyone knew that Bai Shan would not go to Chunfenglou, so if you asked Bai Shan, they would avoid these places.
It's not that Bai Shan was so fierce when he refused, but that when he refused, he glanced at the direction of the hospital, saying that he had to go back to take the child, and everyone understood.
There are actually quite a few officials in the imperial court who are afraid of them, but their colleagues are not afraid of those wives, and they like to coax them to resist the tigress at home, but they don't dare to deal with Zhou Manchu.
After all, being an official of the same dynasty, unlike the wives of other officials, as long as they are willing, they may never meet in their lifetime.
But Zhou Man, they didn't dare to look up and see him.
The three adults in the incident went out of the imperial city and went to the Spring Breeze Building. Fang Wei was depressed because of the incident, so he couldn't help drinking too much.
After drinking too much, he couldn't hold back his words, so he complained while hugging her daughter, "It's a pity I don't have a lady like that, otherwise why would I have been working hard in the court for more than ten years before I got promoted to the official position, while others have five years. The time has gone from being a 17th rank official to a 5th rank.”
Niu Wei was still sober in the matter, he brought a drink to him, and retorted with a smile: "That's not what you said, Master Bai has been in office for seven years, it really compares, he was already a fifth-rank middle book five years ago. Shiren, who didn't know that His Majesty intended to cultivate him when he was released back then? Now he is just returning to his standard."
"Brother Niu is right," Li Keishi shook his head and said, "But what I don't understand is, why does he want to go back to Beijing to enter the province? With his qualifications, he should continue to go abroad at this time. Yes, Shangzhou's prefect is well deserved, and when he comes back as prefect, with his achievements, it is not a matter of course to be promoted? Why bother to come back and compete with us?"
Fang Weizhong: "Who knows, maybe it's because of the hard work of the outside world, and it's not as rich as Beijing, so you don't want to go out?"
Niu Kei shook his head and said: "No, no, Master Bai has even gone to the Western Regions, so why is he afraid of hard work? And because of his family background, he will never treat himself badly in terms of food and accommodation, so where is the hard work? ?"
He smiled and said, "I'm afraid it's the hero who is saddened by Meirenguan, because Lord Zhou is in Beijing, so he stayed in Beijing."
"Isn't this heroic shortness of breath?"
"I don't know if it's because of shortness of breath, but Lord Bai is really scared. The last time I rode across the main street, I happened to see their husband and wife shopping. Lord Bai didn't fulfill Lord Zhou's wish, and Lord Zhou stepped directly on Lord Bai's foot. It hurts to look at me."
Overnight, the rumors of Bai Shan's fear spread all over the capital, and within two days, the rumors of Zhou Man beating his husband began to circulate in the market.
The rumors were not popular, but it was widespread. When Zhou Man went to the Yin mansion to consult Mrs. Yin, several aunts of the Yin family kept peeking at her.
The expression on his face was about to fall, and Zhou Man couldn't even pretend he couldn't see it.
She withdrew her hand and smiled with Mrs. Yin: "I'll change the recipe for you in a moment, and give you a few more needles to make you feel better."
Mrs. Yin nodded with a smile, "Okay, thank you Lord Zhou."
Mrs. Yin asked as usual, "I wonder how my grandson's body is doing recently?"
Zhou Mandao: "It's fairly stable. As long as you clean your mind and nurture your body, it will not be a problem to live for more than ten years."
Mrs. Yin was stunned for a moment. This time is different from the previous one. She hurriedly asked, "Pure your heart and raise your body? Then... what if you get a wife and start a family?"
Zhou Man shook his head, "I'm afraid it will damage your life expectancy."
Mrs. Yin was a little disappointed, but she was prepared for such a result, and her face quickly adjusted, "Lord Lao Zhou is here."
Zhou Man got up and nodded slightly, turned around and went out to prescribe the medicine.
She handed the prescription to the servants of the Yin family, and then looked at the aunts of the Yin family who followed up to ask about the situation, "The old lady's body is the same as before, since she is old, we will try to make her feel better. "
She paused and looked at them curiously, "Several sisters, is there something on my face, or did I brush my hair wrong today? Why do you keep looking at me?"
Sister Yin waved her hands again and again, "No, no, Master Zhou looks very good today."
Zhou Man: "If the sisters have something to say, I don't mind."
The sisters of the Yin family were even more hesitant to speak, but after opening their mouths a few times, they still said, "It's okay, it's okay."
Zhou Man: …
She asked Mrs. Yin to prepare the needle, and she didn't leave after the needle, she turned around and went to find Yin or.
She knew a lot about Yin or's yard, knowing that the sisters were going home today, so he was too lazy to go out, so he leaned in the yard to read with a book in his hand.
Hearing the footsteps, he raised his eyes lazily, and when he saw it was Zhou Man, he sat up straight and asked with a smile, "Why are you here?"
"I've finished watching the illness, and I have also completed your entrustment."
Shouldn't you go out and turn left to go home? Why are you here?
