Afterwards, Emperor Wen did not get on the carriage, but began to wander around the city.
At first, Emperor Wen was a little doubtful, whether only the street he just passed was cleaner. But after turning around several places, he found that it was the same. Not to mention Emperor Wen, even the accompanying officials were very surprised.
The same is true for Qin Fang. Although he has heard some words of praise for Rong County from others, he feels that these words must have a certain degree of water. After all, his relationship with Qin Hao is there, and there are people who like him. Good and normal.
It wasn’t until he came to Rong County that Qin Fang realized that his son was much more capable than he imagined.
Emperor Wen was a middle-aged entrepreneur who built his fortune. He knew very well that such clean streets required extremely high abilities from those in power. He had never seen such a city in his memory.
On this point alone, even the capital city is not as good as here. Emperor Wen suddenly thought of a question: "Qin Aiqing, how can the houses in Rong County be so neat?"
Urban management planning is an entry point. This is a problem that only modern society faces. In ancient times, the government often did not interfere in the construction of private houses and did not take care of them. As long as they did not exceed the regulations, they could basically build whatever they wanted.
But in Rong County, almost all houses are built in a block-like manner. The width of the street is basically enough to allow two carriages to walk. The main road can even allow four carriages to drive side by side. .
Qin Hao briefly explained how to do urban planning, including public toilets and sewage systems.
But even so, Emperor Wen and the officials were greatly amazed.
After walking around in Rong County, Emperor Wen asked Qin Hao to lead them to visit the kiln factory. At this time, the kiln factory had become an entire industrial area. Compared with the city, the industrial area was dirtier. The messiness is, of course, only relative. For those black kilns and small workshops, this place is simply not too tidy.
When Emperor Wen came to the edge of the Min River, he saw everyone who didn’t need any effort. The stone hammer and stone grinding machine that kept falling up and down were immediately shocking to everyone.
Qin Hao explained with a smile, "Your Majesty, the principle of this is actually not complicated. It is to use the power of water flow to replace manual labor, which can not only save manpower, but also improve efficiency. These are all done by Niao Niao."
Emperor Wen was stunned for a moment, then laughed and said to Cheng Shi, "Cheng Aiqing has a good way of teaching his daughter, and he can actually create such wonderful things."
Cheng Shi was a little unbelievable, although he knew that his daughter liked it Tinkering with these weird things, but these ingenious artifacts in front of her are really made by her
Xiao Yuanyi's face was even more confused. It seemed to her that her daughter had not been doing her job before and was doing these ingenious things all day long. The skills were useless at all. However, the artifacts in front of her that could automatically crush ore without manpower or animal power overturned her cognitive system.
Emperor Wen was tired after a day of shopping, and finally stayed at the county government office. As a result, all the police officers working in the county government office were kicked out, and the defense was taken over by the Yulin Guards.hand.
Qin Hao took Qin Fang, Cheng Shi, and Xiao Yuanyi to live in his home. Qin Hao's home is in the southeast corner of Rong County New Town. It is relatively quiet and suitable for raising children.
Cheng Shaoshang was very happy to see Cheng Shi and greeted him at the door with a big belly.
Cheng Shi saw this and hurriedly ran up to him, "Oh, you are pregnant now, so you don't pay attention."
Cheng Shaoshang touched his round belly. He said with a smile, "I've been sitting or lying down all day, and my body is getting moldy. My husband also told me to exercise more."
"Then there's no need to stand at the door, let's go in and talk. "Qin Fang also felt sorry for this daughter-in-law. She accompanied her son to this remote country, and she could help his son turn a backward county into what it was like. Where could he find such a virtuous wife?
Xiao Yuanyi felt sad when she saw that Cheng Shaoshang was very close to Cheng Shi and even Qin Fang, but he didn’t even smile when facing her. She wanted to care about her daughter, but she was alienated from her. The words in his eyes were stuck in his throat and he couldn't spit them out.
At the dinner table, Cheng Shi was in high spirits. He drank a lot of wine and kept praising Qin Hao. Yes, this world still needs you scholars to govern."
Xiao Yuanyi winked at Cheng Shi several times, but he didn't respond.
Qin Fang asked carefully some questions about the construction of Rong County. Qin Hao did not hide anything. He gave a straight answer. Qin Fang couldn't help but admired, "With your ability, you are not qualified to be a county magistrate." , In a few years, my father will be able to abdicate in favor of the wise and live out his old age."
At this time, Emperor Wen was also struggling with this matter in the county government. After Qin Hao's ability arrived in Rong County, he He no longer had any doubts, but the unspoken rules of different dynasties of the same clan were set by him.
The purpose is to weaken the control of the aristocratic family over the court, so as not to lose the tail. This is a basic national policy. If this exception is broken, other wealthy families will inevitably have this idea in the future.
But it would be too unfair to let a talent like Qin Hao be just a county magistrate. As for asking Qin Fang to sue his elders and give up his position to Qin Hao, it is not appropriate. After all, Qin Fang Qin Hao's abilities are also outstanding. After all, Qin Hao is still young and cannot be directly promoted to Jiuqing at once. He has to walk step by step.
Emperor Wen had people prepare a banquet and called Prime Minister Deng Yu to the room alone.
Prime Minister Deng Yu also saw Emperor Wen's troubles, so he said bluntly, "Your Majesty is worried about the affairs of Da Sinong and the Qin County Magistrate."
Emperor Wen sighed, "I know. I, sir, what do you think I should do?"
"Qin County Magistrate does have real talents and knowledge and should be reused." Prime Minister Deng Yu bowed and made a decisive statement.
When Emperor Wen heard this, he smiled and said, "Didn't you, sir, complain a lot about the magistrate of Qin before?"
Prime Minister Deng Yu said with an upright face, "This is to promote talents for the country, and I will not do it."Dare to be biased. "
"Oh, so sir, you still have some objections to the Qin County Magistrate." Emperor Wen looked at him with a smile.
Prime Minister Deng Yu met Emperor Wen's gaze and said seriously, "You can make an eight-year-old emperor." A small county with thousands of households has been built like this in two years, and I feel inferior. However, after all, County Magistrate Qin is young, and his methods are too radical. He still needs to sharpen his skills. In my humble opinion, Your Majesty, it is better to summon County Magistrate Qin to serve as an official. A doctor from Taiyuan University will definitely become a pillar of the country in the future. ”
Emperor Wen fell into deep thought. It was indeed a good choice for Qin Hao to enter Taiyuan Academy. This was a clean official position. He did not directly participate in government affairs, but could help him make suggestions. It could indeed silence the mouths of those wealthy families. , and at the same time, Qin Hao can be trained in the process of handling daily affairs of the country.
"Sir, he is dedicated to the public and has good intentions. " Emperor Wen patted Prime Minister Deng Yu's hand with emotion.
In the next few days, Qin Hao took Emperor Wen and his entourage to introduce the population, education, commerce and other conditions of Rong County in detail. Three days later, Emperor Wen was satisfied. After returning to the capital, he also revealed to Qin Hao before leaving that he would be transferred back to the capital after his term was over.
Cheng Shi reluctantly waved goodbye to Cheng Shaoshang, and Cheng Shaoshang said goodbye. She was about to give birth in more than two months, and he was very worried, but Cheng Shaoshang's physical condition did not allow her to travel long distances.
"Uncle, Niao Niao, please take good care of her. Cheng Shi grabbed Qin Hao's hand and warned with red eyes.
Qin Hao nodded solemnly, "Don't worry, I will take good care of Niao Niao and the child." ”
Xiao Yuanyi also wanted to give some advice, but unfortunately Cheng Shaoshang didn’t even look at her. Xiao Yuanyi felt so unhappy that she could only turn around and get into the carriage, crying silently.
The arrival of Emperor Wen did not disrupt the pace of Rong County’s development. Under the development framework formulated by Qin Hao, government officials and local wealthy families could benefit from it, just like a huge snowball rising from the hillside. Rolling downward, there is no need for external force to push it.
As winter approaches, the weather gradually becomes colder, and Cheng Shaoshang finally welcomes the day of giving birth. Even though Qin Hao has been fully prepared, he still remains. A little nervous.
Giving birth to a woman in ancient times was like going through hell.
Fortunately, Cheng Shaoshang had been exercising and was in good physical condition. After two hours of hard labor, she finally gave birth. A baby boy was born.
“Congratulations to Mr. Qin, it’s a little boy. "Mr. Wen held a child and congratulated her.
Qin Hao skillfully held the little guy in his arms. The little guy was crying with a loud voice.
"Daddy , is this my younger brother?" A very cute little girl asked crisply.
This is Nannan, the granddaughter of the old county magistrate Cheng. She has been following them since she recognized Qin Hao as her godfather. More than two years have passed, and the little girl is almost seven years old. She is so sensible that it makes people feel sad. Her name is now Qin Lan. Did you know that his daughter is also called this name? Qin Hao does not treat her as an outsider..
"Well, when my brother grows up, how about you protect him?" Qin Hao rubbed the little girl's head.
"Okay." The little girl nodded solemnly, looking like a young adult.
Qin Hao smiled, handed his son to the wet nurse, and then came to Cheng Shaoshang.
Cheng Shaoshang's face was a little pale, and he lay on the bed exhausted. When he saw Qin Hao, he glanced sideways at him, "It's really unfair. Why don't men need to have children? We women are the ones to blame." I'll take it."
Qin Haoshang was happy and helped her tidy up the messy hair on her temples. "She still has the energy to complain, which means she's in good condition."
Cheng Shaoshang pulled Qin Hao away angrily. His hand bit him on the wrist, leaving two rows of teeth marks.
"Mom, my brother is so cute. He can also blow bubbles." At this time, the little girl Qin Lan came in and pointed at the little guy who had just finished feeding and was still lying in the nurse's arms.
Cheng Shaoshang quickly let go of Qin Hao's hand. She still had to act like a loving mother in front of the little girl, mainly because she was too young and had no experience in being a mother.
"Nanny, why are you here? Didn't I ask you to stay in the house?" Cheng Shaoshang admired the loyalty and courage of the old county magistrate Cheng very much. He also loved his daughter as much as he loved the house, because he was afraid of leaving a psychological shadow on her. So before giving birth, she was told not to come to the delivery room.
There were tears in Nannan’s eyes, “Mom, I’m worried about you”
Cheng Shaoshang was very moved and reached out to wipe away the little girl’s tears, “Don’t worry, Nannan, Mom is fine. "
"Yes." Nannan wiped her tears sensibly. At this time, the nanny had already picked up the little guy and put it next to Cheng Shaoshang's pillow.
Cheng Shaoshang looked at the little guy’s wrinkled face and felt a little disgusted, “He looks so ugly, he doesn’t even look like me.”
Qin Haoshang was amused, “Children are all like this. It'll look good once it's opened, after all, his father is so handsome."
"Pfft."
Cheng Shaoshang and Nannan couldn't help laughing.
With the birth of the little guy, the house became lively. The little guy cries very loudly and is very naive. He will cry when Cheng Shaoshang is not around for a while.
In order to take care of this little guy, the two wet nurses were very tired, and Cheng Shaoshang also suffered a lot.
What’s more interesting is that the little guy seems to like his sister Nannan very much. When Cheng Shaoshang is not around, only Nannan can coax this little devil. This state continues until Cheng Shaoshang is out of confinement. Improved.
The little one after the full moon has also grown and is very cute. Cheng Shaoshang firmly believes that his son looks like her. Qin Hao will not argue about this. It will be obvious when his son grows up.
Spring passed and autumn came, just six months after the little guy was born, Emperor Wen's decree also came down. Qin Hao was transferred to the doctorate of Taiyuan University for his achievements in Rong County, and he was also rewarded with some brocade silk and gold. silverware.
On the day Qin Hao left Rong County, people along the street took to the streets spontaneously, and the kiln factory had to stop work.
"Master Qin, can you stay?" Tian Laowang mustered up the courage to kneel down beside the carriage.
In an instant, the dark crowd knelt down on both sides of the road. In the carriage, Cheng Shaoshang cried silently. How could she be willing to leave this city that she and Qin Hao had built.
Qin Hao lifted the car curtain, walked out of the car slowly, and said to everyone, "Everyone, please go back. One thing I hope everyone will remember is that the reason why Rong County is in today's grand situation is not Qin." The credit is the result of the joint efforts of the whole county, and the future is in your own hands."
After saying that, Qin Hao turned back to the carriage, but the people along the street did not get up, let alone. leave.
Tian Laowen cried sadly, "Farewell to Mr. Qin"
"Farewell to Mr. Qin, and wish Mr. Qin a bright future"
Countless people cried Shouting and chasing the carriage all the way to see it off, even ten miles outside the city, there were still people following the carriage. Qin Hao could only harden his heart and ask the coachman to drive faster.
A month later, the entrance of Qin Mansion was decorated with lights and the middle door was wide open.
Qin Yuan asked his servants to clean the house spotlessly a few days ago. At the same time, he also sent servants to watch at the city gate. Once there is news of Qin Hao's return, he will immediately report back to the house.
"How come this hasn't happened a few days ago? Didn't you say it was just one or two days ago?" Mrs. Qin Yuan was not living in the front hall, pacing back and forth.
Suddenly, a servant ran in panting and shouted, "Madam, the young master and the young madam have arrived at the city gate."
Qin Yuanshi's eyes lit up and she was overjoyed. "Why are you still standing there? Why don't you just follow me to the door to greet them?"
Not long after, a group of carriages came to the door of the Qin Mansion. Qin and Yuan didn't care about their status as elders and immediately went to greet them.
Qin Hao originally thought that his mother would ask him to greet her after not seeing her for many years, but Qin Yuan walked straight to the carriage behind and asked earnestly.
"Let me take a look at my precious grandson."
Well, as expected, after having a grandson, the son is worthless.
When Cheng Shaoshang got off the carriage with the little guy in his arms, Qin Yuan was so happy when he saw it, "Oh, my good grandson, let grandma hug you."
< p>As he said that, he took the little guy over, but he didn't give any face to him. He was giggling in Cheng Shaoshang's arms, but when he got into Qin Yuanshi's arms, he started to cry loudly. How could he be coaxed? None of them worked.Ms. Qin Yuan was not angry and handed the little guy back to Cheng Shaoshang, smiling and saying, "Look at how loudly my grandson cries. He will definitely be a promising child in the future."
< p>This preference is too obvious.But it’s not without its benefits. Qin Yuan originally didn’t like Cheng Shaoshang very much and felt that she was not worthy of Qin Hao. This time she actually took Cheng Shaoshang’s hand and exchanged pleasantries very affectionately. For a while, Cheng Shaoshang was a little flattered by saying that he had worked hard for her and so on.
In this way, Mrs. Qin Yuan carefully protected Cheng Shaoshang as he entered.When he entered the house, he didn't even look at Qin Hao. Qin Hao had no choice but to lead his daughter inside.
The small courtyard where Qin Hao lived before has been re-cleaned and is spotless. It has all the daily necessities and is ready for immediate move-in.
Yuan Shen also came at this time. This guy has now stayed in the court as a sixth-grade official. He was recommended by his family, but his talent and learning are there, and he quickly established himself. Heel.
"Zihan has developed a small county to such a scale in three years. It is really amazing." Yuan Shen, like all second-generation officials, always felt that hanging around in the imperial government was too much. He lives a boring life and yearns for the outside world.
Qin Hao laughed and scolded, "Don't be ignorant of your blessings. How many people will never be able to sit in your seat in their lifetime."
Although the imperial examination system is in modern times Civilization has always been criticized, but if it were placed in the Han Dynasty, I don’t know how many children from poor families and ordinary people would be ecstatic.
Under the imperial examination system, all opportunities for advancement are controlled by the aristocratic families. Even conquests require a certain reputation to be known to the emperor. However, aristocratic families have absolute say in public opinion. Who has the right to speak? The talent is completely decided internally by them.
Take Qin Hao as an example. If he was born in a poor family, even if he had made such great achievements, what awaited him might not be reuse, but suppression, or even imprisonment.
While they were talking, a banquet had been prepared in the front hall. Qin Fang had already gone to court at this time, so the family reunion naturally had to be celebrated.
This was also the first time Qin Fang saw his grandson. His original majestic appearance only lasted for less than a minute. The little guy seemed to love his beard very much and always wanted to reach out to pull it out. Qin Fang avoided it, While smiling at the little guy, if his colleagues saw him, they would probably be shocked.
After turning around, Qin Hao entered the palace to meet Emperor Wen.
Emperor Wen patted Qin Hao on the shoulder and said with emotion, "Three years ago, Zihan rushed to a small county in Sichuan alone. Now he has not only given it a new look, but his son is half a year old."
"Zihan also helped me persuade Zicheng to get married as soon as possible and give birth to a boy and a half girl, so that I can have an explanation for Brother Huo."
Qin Hao secretly laughed, this Emperor Wen It's obvious that he is worried about Ling Buyi again. Those who don't know will definitely suspect that Ling Buyi is his illegitimate son.
While he was talking, he saw a eunuch running in in a panic and whispered a few words in Emperor Wen's ear. Emperor Wen's face suddenly became ugly. Please remember to bookmark the website, the latest, fastest and free to read without anti-theft
