Three hundred and eighty-eight, worry

In the elegant room of the tea house, the tea fragrance is everywhere. When cooking tea in a small sand stove, the tea is made with olive kernels, the flame is light blue, the fire is even, and it is very elegant with autumn chrysanthemums and morning dew.

Xie Linjiang and his colleagues were scholars, with fame and fortune, and they were all young, of the same age and had common topics, so they gradually became friends.

Everyone was rarely leisurely and elegant, so they began to think about poetry around the tea table with great interest.

From time to time, I smiled and said a few words, and the atmosphere was very harmonious with the fragrance of the tea. There was a calm and ink atmosphere that scholars liked to fill it.

Among the few people present, only Xie Linjiang frowned and did not speak, and was incompatible with the surroundings.

His mind is very messy now, buzzing, and many things flash by like mirrors and moons, and in the end they can't stay and find it difficult to collude, so he had to shake his head.

At first he thought that the prince’s actions were just a trick to cover up the real purpose, and were just for some people to see. The purpose was to cover up the big moves behind it.

But as time goes by, he gradually realized that he was not at all...

It is the second day of the October 20th. The prince’s plan has been implemented for more than ten days. He sent a large number of female workers to clean the streets twice a day, and clean the city of Jiangzhou. Then, every second day, the streets become dirty again as usual.

More than ten days have passed, and the prince is as usual, without any change, and is not ready to take any other measures.

I just take people to play in the city every day, and there are no other actions. It's simply like a child's play.

He was anxious. Lord Wang Ke had told the prince several times that this would not work. It would not be possible to solve the major problems at the bottom of the matter. But the prince disagreed and continued to do his own thing and asked them to do their job well...

He can naturally do his job well.

Although Xie Linjiang was a scholar, he was in the attitude of not being able to learn. In just about a year, he had learned to do a lot of things. With Wang Ke's teachings, he also improved.

But this incident really made him worried because he knew why other things were done, and what was the use of doing it, but this time, he still knew it was useless, but he still had to continue doing it.

"Hahaha, why is Brother Xie so frowning? It's a happy event to be successful when he can do things under the King of Pingnan." His colleague smiled.

If this was just a praising him more than ten days ago, the meaning was completely different now, and that was a joke.

Xie Linjiang smiled bitterly and didn't say much. He knew that his friend was just joking and had no malice.

Then everyone chatted a few more times. Several of their friends were scholars who had just entered the officialdom. Most of them were well-educated and well-educated. Even if they were joking, they would not deliberately expose their scars. Then this matter was joking.

Besides, he doesn't need to say it deliberately.

The practice of King Pingnan has now become the biggest joke in Jiangzhou nowadays. Merchants and ordinary people know each other. When the two meet, old friends meet, or when they have nothing to do, they have to take it out and make fun of it and say a few words.

Seeing this situation, Xie Linjiang was sad and powerless, and he was also confused. He really didn't understand what the prince wanted to do.

He could only guess in his heart that the prince wanted to use this to numb the people in the Jiangzhou officialdom. When everyone was unprepared, he accidentally purged the administration and settled corruption. As a result, the methods were not experienced enough, and he didn't know how to deal with it, which led to the current situation. Apart from this, he could not think of any other explanation.

.........

While covering his nose, Wang Ke followed the prince to supervise the soldiers to burn the garbage.

Wang Ke is too lazy to refute any of the prince’s actions now, but he can see that the prince has no other thoughts or ideas at all. He is just thinking about it and really wants to clean up the Jiangzhou street market...

More than 300 female workers, plus more than 100 wings, new troops, and transshipment envoys had to have more than 600 mouths to eat every day, which was a huge expense.

He didn't understand why the prince was like this, he couldn't understand it at all.

But what can he do when he is in his position? He couldn't stop the prefect at the beginning, and what can he do now is the prince of the Tian family, the champion general, Beijing North Transport Authority, what can he do as a little judge...

It’s a pity that when he first met King Pingnan, he still had expectations and thought that if he changed his boss, he might be different, and if he changed his person to Jiangzhou, he might be saved.

Now it seems that he is still too naive.

Thinking of this, Wang Ke didn't plan to say more questions, just do the job for the prince honestly.

"How many wing troops have you come today?" asked the prince.

Wang Ke thought for a moment: "After adding thirty people, the soldiers of the wing army reported that they were already too busy, so the participating commander sent another thirty people every day, a total of 130 people entering the city."

The prince nodded: "This is a good sign."

Wang Ke opened his mouth and finally didn't say anything. He sighed in his heart. What good sign can this be? Isn't it just that there is more garbage and filth in the basket.

Although he didn't have hope in his heart, Wang Ke couldn't help it and asked in a tentative voice: "Prince, what will we do tomorrow?"

"Everything is the same, what else can it be?" The prince answered without thinking.

At this moment, the little fire of hope in his heart was completely destroyed, his heart sinks, and he just nods silently.

.........

On the second day of October, it started to rain lightly in the sky, and milky white mist covered Jiangzhou City. There were more than 300 female workers and Xiangjun temporarily resting for a day.

Apart from the absence of female workers sent by the King of Pingnan, Jiangzhou seems to have no changes.

But Li Xingzhou observed every day, and he knew there was a change.

After more than ten days, the Xiang army went from one hundred people to one hundred and 130 people every day. Many female workers also talked more, they became angry and lively, and they came back faster. In the past, they went out before Mao hour, but they could not come back within Mao hour. Now, they went out before Mao hour, and they could come back at the end of Mao hour.

The sky was drizzling, the mist was filled with vague figures, and there were vague figures walking through it with umbrellas.

Li Xingzhou stood in the attic corridor and watched all this. Compared to Jiangzhou in the south, the north had more rough air systems. There were few carved eaves at the four corners of the house, and most of the windows were ordinary square-shaped.

Several female workers were laughing under the eaves of the east corridor, but Li Xingzhou couldn't hear clearly from afar.

He didn't follow anyone, nor did he bring maids or anything else. His mother-in-law said she wanted to find two maids for him to take care of his daily life. Li Xingzhou refused, and he could handle it himself.

But now he was alone and felt a little lonely. I don’t know when it started, even people like him began to become unaccustomed to loneliness, and I don’t know how the royal palace is now.

Of course, he knew the outside world's views on this matter, and also knew the conflict between Wang Ke, Xie Linjiang and others, but he had to do it.

If Jiangzhou is still in a state of recession, it must be his solution.
