Chapter 134 The wind rises in Huaicheng

 Chapter 135 The wind rises in Huaicheng

Relief for the poor is never an empty talk.

If you have money, you have to spend time.

Zhao Sheng fished a lot of gold leaves from the river, but he didn’t have much time to spare.

But if all the gold leaves are distributed at once, I am afraid that it will not benefit the people who should be helped.

The water needs to flow slowly, don't rush, take your time,

So he found the leader of the Golden Python Gang's branch in Huaicheng and asked him to help.

The members of the Golden Python Gang are all familiar with doing these things. After hearing this, the leader patted his chest and said that this matter would be taken care of by him.

Zhao Sheng only needs to hand over the money to him. How to operate it later and how to ensure that the relief is orderly and the water flows smoothly is their business.

As for whether there are people with unclean hands and feet among them, to be honest, Zhao Sheng doesn't have time to care about many.

If it goes too far, I'll kill you with one punch.

These gold leaves were all obtained by the Huaicheng officials who plundered the people's wealth and anointing, and now they can be regarded as returned to the people. Zhao Sheng is not stingy at all.

After explaining the good things, Zhao Sheng returned to the inn by himself.

There are several inns in Huaicheng, but this one is the largest.

In addition to entertaining these Beijing officials, Liang Hongfei and Shi Xiuming, who came from other places, also lived here.

Zhao Sheng passed by their room quietly and heard Liang Hongfei yelling.

It’s all my money! It’s all my hard-earned money!

Zhao Sheng sneered and ignored it.

He walked past Deng Yuanqiao's room again. The door was closed tightly. His ears moved slightly and he heard the sound of writing inside.

Deng Yuanchao was writing furiously, perhaps to report Chen Yuanzheng's incident to His Majesty.

Chen Yuanzheng became an official with the rank of Sixth Grade. Even if a large number of officials in the south of the Yangtze River were his students, how could he have such great ability and get so much money?

I'm afraid that there is a huge smelly cesspit hidden under this old stone.

If Deng Yuanqiao wants to dig it out, the whole sky in Jiangnan will change.

But these are all his guesses. No one knows what will happen.

Zhao Sheng can distribute all the gold leaves he got on a whim, just to disgust these high-ranking big shots.

You can also feel heroic, kill all the bandits in one night, and kill the father of Xu University Scholar with one punch.

But he can't do it if he ignores his own safety and declares war with such a huge force.

He asked himself that he was not a very benevolent person, so he admired those who could do this.

If Deng Yuanqiao really did this, he was working hard to support it secretly.

Zhao Sheng shook his head and walked back to his room.

Except for Deng Yuanchao's matter, which he needs to be more concerned about, the rest of Huaicheng's affairs have nothing to do with him.

He would come to Huaicheng with these high officials just because the emperor wanted to deal with Chen Yuanzheng, who claimed to be a Qingliu man.

His Majesty the Emperor, who expected Da Li, probably didn't expect that Chen Yuanzheng was such a person.

And it was Zhao Sheng who caught it, which is a task that was overfulfilled.

From now on, he just wants to relax.

After returning to the palace, he has to accept the emperor's commendation again, and may have to promote him again, which is really annoying... Zhao Sheng sighed.

"You have to think about your refusal first, so you can say it directly when you get back."

Zhao Sheng sighed.

When dinner time is approaching, martial arts practice can easily be interrupted.

He picked up the jade sword hanging on his waist and played with it for a while. Then he asked the person at the inn for a long cowhide rope and wrapped it around the hilt.

In this way, you won’t be afraid of others recognizing the sword.

Zhao Sheng thought for a while and hung a tassel and jade pendant on the hilt of the sword. From this point of view, it looked more like a decorative sword.

"It's just that the scabbard made of wood doesn't look good and is too rough. I have to find some time to let a craftsman polish it."

Zhao Sheng raised the jade sword and shook it. The hanging jade pendant collided with the sword hilt, making a crisp sound, which was really nice to hear.

His ears moved and he heard someone walking towards him, so he hung the sword back on his waist.

There was a knock at the outer door. Zhao Sheng held his forehead with one hand and said, "Come in."

The door opened, and a young man in Tsing Yi walked in with his head down and a dinner plate.

After all, he is also a Beijing official. He works as an errand in the palace and needs someone to bring him meals on weekdays.

Zhao Sheng glanced at him and asked: "New here? I haven't seen you before."

The young man put down the dinner plate and respectfully whispered: "Replying to your lord, I just came yesterday."

Zhao Sheng raised his eyebrows: "Want to enter the palace?"

The young man was neither humble nor arrogant, and replied: "Thanks to the blessings of several adults, I can follow you back to the palace."

Zhao Sheng is thoughtful.

A few years ago, I had to work in the palace as an errand. As long as I had the courage to endure the blow, I would go in. The palace would even give me money.

But now that the world is in chaos and the palace expenses are being reduced again and again, it is not that easy to get into the palace. At least you have to have a strong connection.

This is not a contradiction.

The expenses in the palace have been continuously reduced, and the eunuchs at the bottom are often not full, but at least they will not starve to death.

No matter how clever you are and how wide your connections are, it is not impossible to be popular and drink hot food.

The more chaotic the world is, the more people want to go to a stable place.

It's very safe in the palace.

It can only be said that there is a system at the end of the universe... Zhao Sheng asked again: "What's your last name? Who are you here with?"

The young man replied: "My surname is Yu and my name is Jiu Ren. I knew an adult from Dongchang before I came here.

The adult said that I didn't know martial arts and could just do odd jobs in the palace, so he asked me to deliver meals to a few adults first so that I could get acquainted with them.

Don’t go to the palace and be timid and unable to do anything well.”

Most of the Dongchang were eunuchs and had experience working in the palace.

Train him well before returning to the palace, and be considerate of him.

Zhao Sheng smiled and nodded: "It's true that you have to be careful when working in the palace."

Yu Jiuren nodded and said: "Thank you for your advice, sir."

Zhao Sheng waved his hand and asked him to go down.

After eating and drinking, Zhao Sheng meditated on time and carried Zhou Tian.

Now his cultivation and combat power are divided into two parts. One is the infuriating energy and divine energy that fills the whole body.

The second is the green fruit formed by condensation of true energy and divine energy.

The power in the green fruit is as surging as the sea. Once it is gone, he can immediately become an innate.

But for the sake of safety, Zhao Sheng chose not to dissolve Qingguo for the time being, and would inject some pure energy into Qingguo every day.

As time goes by, the power contained in this green fruit becomes more and more powerful.

Zhao Sheng could even imagine the moment when he became innate, and when he transformed the green fruit, his true energy would shake the heavens and the earth.

The past few days have been uneventful.

When Zhao Sheng was bored, he would go out of the inn to support the Golden Python Gang, and once even went to visit Chen Yuanzheng's garden.

But it's a pity that the garden has been closed down long ago, and it is difficult for him to enter.

Deng Yuanchao and others who came with him were responsible for investigating corruption in the Huaicheng Saltworks. I didn't expect that they would be implicated in such a big thing.

The sky in Huaicheng is very gloomy.

All the officials are waiting, maybe there is already a storm in the dark.

Suddenly one day, a report from the official residence came from the inn.

Zhao Sheng took it and took a look and was amazed.

It turns out that Deng Yuanchao unearthed another huge thing through checking Chen Yuanzheng's private wealth in the past few days.
