Chapter 43 Prefect Wang Xiang touches a grey nose again

Wang Xiang, the new prefect of Yingchuan County, thought he was a great scholar and regarded merchants as a social maggot for nothing.

Before coming to Yingchuan, Wang Xiang was ambitious and wanted to build Yingchuan into an educational model. Wang Xiang decided to encourage farmers and serenity, curb commercial activities, and restore agricultural production in Yingchuan as soon as possible.

Wang Xiang regarded Zhang Yu as a thorn in his eyes. He thought that Zhang Yu would lead to social atmosphere when starting a express company, and the people would not pay attention to farming, but would only think about making money all day long. Wang Xiang thought that people would broaden their horizons and learn about external information, and would be easily bewitched by bad people. If you want to manage Yingchuan well, the best strategy is to nail the people to the land and supplement it with the policy of fooling the people and weakening the people.

Wang Xiang also wanted to curb the landlords and powerful people's annexation of land, so that every farmer could own land.

Wang Xiang was an idealist. The first fire he burned after taking office was to use the strategy of removing firewood from the cauldron and wrote to the court, requiring Zhang Yu's express company to be taken over to the county management.

Last night, a strange incident occurred at Yuwang Pavilion. The earth was shaking and many houses were seriously damaged. However, a super luxury house appeared out of thin air on the south side of Zhang Yu Express Company. Zhang Yu fell asleep peacefully at home, but the people spread the word by word of mouth, adding fuel to the fire and exchanged Zhang Yu from the system mall for garden-style luxury houses overnight, spread throughout Yangzi County.

Wang Xiang personally brought two officers and soldiers to inspect early in the morning. One person and ten people, two person and twenty people, which is equivalent to a modern squad.

Wang Xiang didn't know that Zhang Yu lived in a mansion that appeared out of thin air. He came to investigate the truth with curiosity.

What Wang Xiang never dreamed of was that not only Zhang Yu lived inside, but Wang Xiang's feet were severely scolded by Zhang Yu as soon as he stepped into the gate.

Zhang Yu's reprimand seemed to pour a basin of ice water overhead, making Wang Xiang's mind clear, and things in Yingchuan were not easy to deal with.

Zhang Yu was just the censor, with a rank of 600 stones. Wang Xiang, the prefect, was the top leader of Yingchuan County, with a rank of 2000 stones and his official rank was much higher than Zhang Yu.

When Zhang Yu lifted the emperor out, Wang Xiang's momentum could only be eliminated immediately.

When Zhang Yu used the emperor's name to say that Wang Xiang falsely accused him, Wang Xiang was stunned.

Zhang Yu knew that the conflict between him and Wang Xiang was irreconcilable. Instead of being humble, it would lead to tie his hands and feet, it would be better to be hard from the beginning to the bottom, kill and cut, and accompany him.

Wang Xiang could only leave in shame. He was puzzled. How dare Zhang Yu treat him with this attitude?

Wang Xiang gritted his teeth, but he could do nothing.

Wang Xiang was so angry that he immediately went to the Chen family, wanting to find Chen Shi as an ally to deal with Zhang Yu together.

In Yingchuan, the Chen family is naturally the Chen family because Zhang Yu had a engagement with the Chen family. The Chen family knew about the strange incident that happened to Yuwangting last night. It was close! Send some people to check it out and you will know.

The Chen family regarded Zhang Yu as a god and was extremely happy.

Marrying a god is the greatest honor of the Chen family.

Chen Qun's daughter Chen Jie has been greatly improved. That night, Chen Qi called Chen Jie away and hugged her and laughed happily. Chen Qi asked Chen Jie to take the initiative to go to Zhang Yu to play. This was of course an unprecedented act and an act of violation of etiquette. However, Chen Qi, an old scholar, thought that since Zhang Yu was a god, he did not have to do things completely according to the rules of mortals.

Although Chen Shi was the leader of famous masters, he was particularly flexible.

After dawn, Chen Wei was about to arrange more than a dozen male servants to protect Chen Jie and Sima Hui to Zhang Yu's place to play, when Wang Xiang, the prefect of Yingchuan County, arrived.

Chen Shi received Wang Xiang in the hall and accompanied Chen Qun.

After Wang Xiang bowed to Chen Shi, he talked to Chen Shi about his concept of governing Yingchuan. He summarized the reasons for the Yellow Turbans in Yingchuan into three points. First, the academic atmosphere in Yingchuan was too strong, and famous scholars randomly commented on the government affairs, which led to a serious decline in the prestige of the court. In the future, the ban on verbal policy should be implemented in Yingchuan. Whoever dares to randomly evaluate the government affairs will be arrested. Second, the people of Yingchuan have too broad vision and know too much, and the people must be imprisoned on the land. Third, Yingchuan's commercial activities are too active, which will lead to deterioration of social atmosphere and heavy taxes must be used to curb commercial activities. Fourth, Zhang Yu, as the imperial official, openly engaged in business and despise the law, should despise it. Fifth, suppress large families to buy and sell land slaves, and the plough must be the land. Sixth, confiscate civil weapons and cast spears into plows.

After listening for a while, Chen Wei did not let Wang Xiang say 70,800 or ninety. Because the first thing Wang Xiang said made Chen Wei extremely angry. The court carried out two party-finishing operations. Does Wang Xiang want to capture party members in Yingchuan? Chen Wei waved his hand and said, "The King is old and stupid, deaf, and incompetent in the affairs of the county government. The court repeatedly recruited and refused. Why do you tell me these things? I am old and can't sit for a long time."

Wang Xiang was so angry that I still had thousands of words to say! How could you be so rude that you would send off the guests if you didn’t let me explain it clearly?

Wang Xiang did not dare to be arrogant in front of Chen Zhi, so he could only stand up and say goodbye.

Chen Qun sent Wang Ying away and returned.

Chen Shi sighed and said, "I came to talk about the prefect with a big blow to the great misfortune of our Yingchuan. I was so upset like a fly."

Chen Jun asked: "What should we do?"

Chen said: "This kind of person cannot become a climate, let him go!"

Chen Qun said: "What should he do if he takes tough measures against Zhang Yu?"

Chen Xi smiled and said, "Zhang Yu's wings are hard, and Wang Xiang is no match for him. It is impossible for Zhang Yu to do anything to him. I am very optimistic about Zhang Yu and arranged for someone to send Jiejie to ask for books. Before Zhang Yu came to formally propose marriage, the relationship between our two families could not be settled. We have to prevent other big families from proposing marriages!"

Chen Qun nodded and said, "I understand. We must take the initiative and let Zhang Yu see our sincerity."

After Wang Xiang was disappointed, he returned to Yangdi County Magistrate's Mansion in disappointment. His personality was that he had to do what he wanted to do immediately. He sat behind a short distance, lowered his head and racked his brains to think.

Zhang Yu drove away Wang Xiang and stood on the rockery with Shi A and Zhang Long to talk.

Shi A said: "Master, you invited such a mansion from heaven because it is so large that the disciples thought that people must be arranged to guard it to prevent idle people from entering at will and disturbing your cultivation."

Zhang Yu nodded and said, "Arranging a few people to the doorman first."

Shi A and Zhang Long bowed and said promise.

Zhang Yu said: "Before Zhang Long died, he gave me the treasure map. Zhang Long, you will immediately take the people to get all the treasures back. Zhang Long! You must be careful when you go on this trip. Once outsiders know that not only will the treasures not be able to be retrieved, but you may also lose your life."

Zhang Long smiled and said, "Lord, I think it's the most suitable thing to call you. Lord, I will select the ten most reliable and loyal men in the name of delivering express delivery and arrange ten carriages to go south. After getting the treasure, cover it up and go back quickly."

Shia said: "Lord, I also call you lord. I want to be your loyal slave. Can you let me go too? We must beware of any possible accidents."

Zhang Yu nodded and said, "Very good! Shi, although you call me lord, I will treat you as a brother. Zhang Long, so do you, I will treat you as a brother. You should be more careful along the way, and move the treasure back and hide it upstairs after transporting it."

Shi A and Zhang Long bowed together and said promise.

Shortly after Shi A and Zhang Long left, Zhang Yu was about to go upstairs to rest. Suddenly, he heard a noise at the door and was about to get angry again.

"Brother, Sima Hui and his senior sister are here to visit."
