Tang He happily agreed, if he had known that coming to Qingzhou would be such a joy, he would have come earlier.
Although they haven't seen each other for a long time, they have never stopped writing each other in the past two years. Plus they are in the same court, so they all know each other's achievements and news.
Bai Shan and the others felt that their affairs in Beihai County had nothing to say. Isn't it just building a wharf step by step and encouraging farmers to teach farmers?
In comparison, Tang He's deeds are more attractive, such as the serial murder case he solved in Jingzhou, the murder case of a whole family in Tangzhou, the female ghost murder case in Shouzhou...
Halfway through the meal, everyone was listening to him talking about the case with their chins propped up, and they were listening with great interest.
Finally, Bai Jingxing and Bai Ruoyu, who had not seen their parents for a long time, cried and asked for someone. Zheng and Xiao Qian led the two children to find them, and they realized that time passed a little too fast.
Tang He stopped talking, and after bowing to Xiao Qian, the Zheng family, he looked at the two children in surprise, and said in surprise: "Are your children so old?"
He picked them up and put them on his lap, one on each side, and asked with a smile: "How old are you?"
Bai Ruoyu: "Three years old!"
Bai Jingxing: "Four years old!"
The two children spoke at the same time, but their answers were different.
Tang He turned to look at Bai Shan and the others, "I remember they were born on the same day, right? Even if there is a difference in time, Bai Ruoyu should be older. Why..."
Bai Shan glanced at Zhou Man with a smile and explained: "My daughter is counting her years in vain."
Bai Erlang rolled his eyes and said, "I learned this from Man Bao. He has been telling his age since he was a child."
Tang He laughed and took out gifts from his pocket to give them.
This was prepared two years ago, but I never had the chance to give it to you. Now I finally gave it to you.
"This is prepared by your sister-in-law, cut from the same piece of jade." Tang He put the jade on his clothes for them. He found that the jade was a bit big, so he couldn't help but smile, "It needs to be bigger."
That’s good.”
Because of the arrival of the two children, the topic changed a bit. Tang He no longer talked about the secrets he had made, but looked at Zhou Man, "The matter of the governor of Qingzhou..."
"Oh, I almost forgot," Zhou Man looked at Bai Shan, "Senior Brother Tang said that Qingzhou is going to change its governor."
Bai Shan nodded, "I know."
Zhou Man stared, "You know?"
Bai Shan nodded: "I received a letter from Beijing a few days ago."
He paused and then said: "Your Highness asked me about the candidate for the governor of Qingzhou."
Zhou Man's eyes lit up, "Who is there? Do you have anyone you like?"
Bai Shan smiled slightly and said, "It's true. I proposed someone, General Liu Zhengze."
Tang He was surprised. Others didn't know it, but he knew it. Three years ago, the emperor had thought about changing Qingzhou's governor. At that time, he preferred General Liu. However, because he was resolute and upright and acted forcefully, both his father and the emperor were worried about him.
It would be tough to meet Bai Shan, so I pressed the matter.
Zhou Man realized, "Because of pirates?"
Bai Shan: "This is just one of the reasons. General Liu is upright and resolute. Now that Qingzhou has passed the initial adaptation stage, everything is on the right track. The next step is to follow the steps."
"It's just that when you make more money, people will inevitably become greedy. Those who are above are greedy, and those below will follow. It is no longer suitable for Governor Guo to stay here, and others may not be more suitable than Governor Guo," said Bai Shandao
: "General Liu is different. Firstly, we have cooperated a lot in the past two years, and he has a certain understanding of Qingzhou; secondly, his character is here, and although he acts tough, he is the most suitable for Qingzhou at this time.
"
Tang He asked, "His Highness wrote to you personally?"
"Yeah, what's wrong?"
Tang He smiled slightly and said, "It's nothing."
He glanced at several people, and finally settled on Yin You, "I just think that Junior Yin has been out for a long time, so he should go back to Beijing, right?"
Bai Shan and Yin Orou stiffened, and finally sighed and put down their chopsticks.
Neither of them were fools. They didn't think of this at first, but they also thought about it after the letter was sent. The prince actually wrote directly to ask Bai Shan about the candidate for the governor of Qingzhou. I was afraid that the emperor would no longer trust Yin or stay here.
.
Even if the emperor is relieved, the courtiers will not be relieved either.
Bai Erlang looked at Bai Shan, then turned to look at Yin You, and asked, "What, Yin You wants to go back to Beijing?"
Bai Shan turned to him and said, "When the letter from Yin or his family arrives, you should prepare to go back."
Bai Erlang looked at him suspiciously, "Why?"
Bai Shandao: "Don't you always complain that the bookstore charges too much? It just so happens that our paper mill has also produced new paper, and there is a bookstore under the princess's name. When you return to the capital, you can print the books yourself and hand them over to you when the time comes.
If you sell it in a bookstore, you can make more money."
Bai Erlang: "Do I seem to be short of money? Going back to the capital for the share of a few books?"
Mingda said: "It's indeed time to return to Beijing. Dabao is already so old, and he hasn't met his father, the emperor, and his mother yet."
Bai Erlang immediately changed his mind, "Yes, are you homesick?"
Mingda nodded.
Tang He's guess was good. The prince proposed to use Liu Zhengze as the governor of Qingzhou. No one thought much about it at first, and he indeed transferred the governor Guo back to the capital and made Liu Zhengze the governor of Qingzhou.
Although there was an earthquake and flash flood in Shouguang County not long ago, it was a natural disaster and the follow-up handling was good. Therefore, neither Magistrate Sun nor Governor Guo was reprimanded. On the contrary, because of their proper handling, they and Zhou Man were rewarded.
Already.
But soon someone discovered that the prince had exchanged letters with Beihai County before proposing Liu Zhengze to be the governor.
Although the prince often contacted Princess Mingda because she was in Beihai County, at this moment, they believed that the prince was in contact with Bai Shan.
Moreover, the prince's suggestion to Liu Zhengze was also Bai Shan's suggestion, so someone quietly went to see the emperor and remonstrated: "Your Majesty, Mr. Yin's beloved son is not too young. Since your majesty loves Mr. Yin, why don't you recall Mr. Yin?
Granting a marriage also allows Mr. Yin to enjoy the happiness of a family?"
The emperor glanced at the other party and said: "Yin may be in poor health. Yin Li has already told me that he will never be able to marry and have children in his life. Moreover, Yin Li is now a grandfather, and he has already had the happiness of a family."
Not to mention Yin Li's grandchildren, his youngest daughter has already given birth to three children. Is there still a lack of family happiness?
The other party was choked and simply pointed out: "Your Majesty, I feel that it is not appropriate for Yin County Prince to stay in Beihai County any longer."
He whispered: "Liu Zhengze has military power in his hands. He was proposed by Bai Shan, and Bai Shan is the prince's man..."
The emperor waved his hand and said: "I know this. The prince has mentioned it to me before. Bai Shan has been operating in Beihai County for many years. The current situation in Qingzhou is mostly due to him, so both I and the prince want to listen to his advice. Liu Zhengze
He has always been resolute and upright. Three years ago, I wanted him to take over the post of governor of Qingzhou, but I was afraid that he and Bai Shan would be too stubborn and would not be able to fight head-on. Now that they can get to know each other, I am very happy."
