    Under the shadow of famine and banditry, ordinary people in Henan are still in the mood to think about the New Year. They are gloomy and depressed, and there is no appearance of the New Year. It is really sad at the end of the year.  Fortunately, news came from Zhangde Mansion that the governor had begun disaster relief, which finally cheered people up.  The people at the bottom and the victims are all looking forward to the governor coming to Jiafu County as soon as possible.  The governor has not arrived yet. It seems that the news has always been about Zhangde Prefecture. The people are anxious and can't help but speculate.  Inevitably, some malicious rumors were mixed in and spread quietly.  "Governor Shen has been holding large sums of gold, silver, rice, and acres of land every two days since he arrived in Henan. What is he going to do?" "Forcing the wealthier people to donate food and money for disaster relief, he has become a  The Shen Qingtian in the people's mouth is clearly trying to win people's hearts and has evil intentions! " Listening to this strange tone, you can tell that it cannot be said from the people's mouth.  Looking back at Shen Rui's arrival in Henan, he attacked the Linzhang Prince's Mansion, and vigorously promoted the clearing of Zhang's land. He first scanned the hidden fields of all the vassals under Zhao State, and it is not difficult to know who these words came from.  Hearing these rumors, Wan Dongjiang couldn't help but feel frightened. Although he had already sent people to deliver the message to Shen Rui, he couldn't help but discuss with Tian Feng whether to do something.  After the Linzhang Prince's Mansion was pacified, Wan Dongjiang's mission of guarding Cishan was also over. Shen Rui sent him to follow Tian Feng to explore other prefectures and counties in Henan to prepare for the establishment of the Eight Immortals' Carriage and Horse Racing and Shunfeng Biaoxing in Henan.  semicolon.  Their route was heading to Huaiqing Prefecture, via Henan Prefecture, Ruzhou, and Nanyang Prefecture; while Du Laoba set off to Kaifeng Escort Bureau to say hello, and then went to Guide Prefecture and Runing Prefecture to pave the way.  "I know a few of the brothers who are doing business on this road. Otherwise" Wan Dongjiang made a gesture to stir up the water.  He has been in contact with Taoist people, not only to recruit more people, but also to find out the reality of the various bandits who are causing chaos for Shen Rui.  Tian Feng stayed in Shanshan for several years. He lived with young masters like Zhao Hongpei and Li Xi. He often dealt with people in the officialdom and was very aware of such political methods.  Therefore, he did not care to comfort Wan Dongjiang and said: "Don't worry, the second master knows what he is doing. This is the only way to start. It was more dangerous in Shandong than it is now." He also warned: "You also remember, if anything happens in the future,  Don't panic, don't be impatient. Don't just think about it and take action. When you hear something, ask someone to send it to the second master immediately. If the second master has something to say, you can take action after all. We are people in the world and don't understand the twists and turns of officialdom.  , Don¡¯t do bad things out of good intentions.¡± Wan Dongjiang nodded repeatedly, remembering in his heart that Mr. Shen had entrusted the entire Henan Shunfeng Biao line to him. How trusting he was, he could never let him do it.  Smashed.  Tian Feng lowered his voice again and said: "This rumor must be mixed up by the people from the Zheng Mansion. We were going to pay homage to the mountain gates at several places on the street just to ask them to inquire" Prince Zheng from the Huaiqing Mansion died earlier.  He had no children, so his cousin Zhu Youkun invited him to become a prince, and he was active in the court.  King Zheng and his family had never been favored by the royal family. Just in time for the promulgation of the vassal regulations at that time, it was natural that the country would be eliminated without a son.  ??Zhu You, Prince of Dongyuan County, who failed to succeed in being promoted to King Zheng, spent so much money but got nothing, how could he be willing to accept it?  "And Shen Rui, who was the first to advocate the vassal regulations, came to clear his father-in-law's land again. It was really a collision of old and new hatreds. It would be strange if nothing happened.  Wan Dongjiang couldn't help but said: "It would be great if all the vassal kings in the world were like King Zhao" Tian Feng twitched his lips. It was not surprising that Wan Dongjiang said this without knowing the inside story, so he didn't say anything.  Just a smile.  King Zhao¡¯s reputation has undergone earth-shaking changes in the past month.  ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????¡­  Later, it was revealed that Linzhang King Tangyin King and other vassal houses had been causing trouble for many years, and the old stories of those who had harmed the people in Anyang City when the previous Zhao King was still there were also uncovered.  Therefore, among the people, the reputation of Prince Zhao's Mansion plummeted.  Since Governor Shen made a trip to Prince Zhao¡¯s Mansion, Prince Zhao¡¯s Mansion began to take action to save its image.  First, they donated a large amount of rice to help the victims, and then took the lead in supporting Jishantang. Prince Zhao and his son donated two years of rice to Jishantang for charity.  ¡°Then Prince Zhao came forward to contact several well-known medical clinics inside and outside the city to conduct free medical clinics for the victims of the disaster and poor people, and provided basic medicinal materials for free. All expenses were borne by the Zhao Palace.  He also promised to build a medical clinic in each state and county within the next two years to provide regular free clinics every month.  At the same time, he put down his words and said that Prince Zhao¡¯s Mansion has arranged three scenic spots outside the city.?The manor was donated to cooperate with the government to build an academy, a medical school, and an engineering school. The manor also donated hundreds of hectares of land to support the expenses of the schools.  It¡¯s just a matter of academies, only scholars will be interested in it.  Those two schools are actually people's livelihood projects - the medical school and the engineering school recruit apprentices from all the people of Zhangde Prefecture, with food and accommodation included, as well as a certain amount of wages. Those who graduate will be given priority in the various medical hospitals and royal palaces.  .  Being a teacher is a thing for another time. Just taking care of food and paying wages during the apprenticeship period is particularly impressive in famine years. Even in ordinary times, ordinary people can save a mouthful of food and can also use it for food.  It would be a great thing if the wages returned to supplement the family income.  As soon as this move came out, it immediately aroused applause among the people. ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Which ordinary person with a half-grown-up family is not tempted?  !  It¡¯s just that the school is still under renovation. It is said that it will not start recruiting people until the New Year. Otherwise, I am afraid that Prince Zhao¡¯s Mansion will be surrounded by people who bring their children to beg for help every day.  After such operations, the reputation of Prince Zhao's Mansion was finally reversed.  In the middle of the twelfth lunar month, the imperial edict arrived in Beijing. He first said a few words in an indifferent way to ask King Zhao to put more restraints on the vassal government in the future. Then he praised King Zhao for his kindness, caring for the people, and sharing worries for the king. He also praised King Zhao.  The prince had outstanding literary talent and both political integrity and talent. He was given hundreds of hectares of farmland and gave the father and son of Prince Zhao some rice.  Although the imperially given farmland is located in Linzhang County, it was confiscated from the Linzhang Prince's Mansion. After clearing the land, the Zhao Prince's Mansion handed over many times more land, and the added Lumi was more than their "loss".  It's pitifully small, but after all, this is a commendation from the imperial decree, and King Zhao's reputation as a virtuous king is firmly established.  The talent and reputation of Prince Zhao also spread.  Although the prince himself is not a vain person, he is still a young man after all. He was very happy to learn that his collection of poems has been well received by officials in the capital.  As a result, he became more and more interested in starting a career.  The first thing is to build a large academy comparable to Penglai Academy in Shandong!  The young man was full of energy. He had previously drafted several elegant names for the academy, but now they seemed vulgar. He was busy preparing for a banquet to be held next year to invite scribe friends, and brainstormed to come up with something grand enough!  King Zhao was relieved to see that the emperor no longer wanted to investigate whether he was involved in the Linzhang rebellion.  He wished he could ignore other things and leave all the power to his son. He just felt that spending some money on doing good deeds was nothing, and it was only doing good deeds for himself.  When the grain trucks from Shandong entered the city of Zhangde, the reputation of Prince Zhao's Mansion was unprecedentedly high - the fully loaded grain trucks and the heavy escorts attracted the attention of the people. The originally deserted streets were soon crowded with people watching the excitement.  Among the crowd, there was a bold and meddling person who asked loudly.  The soldier escorting the grain truck said with a strong Shandong accent that it was Governor Shen who arranged for the grain and rice to be bought in Shandong with the money from the Zhao Palace!  It is also said that part of it was donated by wealthy businessmen Lei Dashanren, Lu Dashanren and other philanthropists who came to Zhangde from Shandong to help guide farming and sericulture.  The crowd of onlookers immediately became excited, shouting "Shen Qingtian", "Prince Zhao's Mansion is generous and righteous", and "Shandong's rich households are decent and honorable".  On the way to the preparation warehouse, as expected, a large number of stewards and servants from Prince Zhao's Mansion came over to guide the way and check the grain and rice.  It can be seen that the grain was bought by Prince Zhao's Palace, and the people praised each other. No one blamed Prince Zhao's Palace for the evil done by Prince Linzhang's Palace and Prince Tangyin's Palace. Instead, they all said that Prince Zhao's Palace was upright and cared about the people.  Seeing that the palace's reputation was getting better day by day, Prince Zhao couldn't help but feel elated, and he became more and more willing to spend money. He urged the medical school to be built as soon as possible every day, and personally went to various disaster relief sites to see if the porridge and rice were half-hearted, and he really wanted to be a general.  The wise king did it to the end.  * * Coming with the Shandong grain truck this time was Shen Lian, the third and fourth owner of the Shen family, as well as several wealthy families in Shandong.  When Shen Rui was running Dengzhou, it was Shen Lian who brought a group of weavers from Songjiang Prefecture north to help Shen Rui build the Luban School and weaving factory in Dengzhou. After that, Shen Lian completely settled in Dengzhou.  Whether building shipyards, developing islands, or improving sun-dried salt production, Shen Lian has been deeply involved.  Now that Dengzhou and even Shandong are on the right track, and Shen Rui's coming to Henan for "disaster relief" is just like the original "land reclamation" work, Shen Lian naturally comes to help.  The first batch of Shandong wealthy businessmen to come to Henan this time were also the first few large business families in Dengzhou to seek refuge with Shen Rui and make a fortune, including the Lu family, the Lei family, the Han family, and the Qin family.  The Lei family is good at managing mountains, and the Qin family is good at farming. Shen Rui sent people to these two families by name.  The two families are notIf you dare to neglect, the head of the family came here in person. Mr. Lei and his son-in-law Li Xingtian, and Mr. Qin and his eldest son Qin Pei, obviously responded to Mr. Shen's call to build a big industry in Henan.  They not only followed Shen Rui¡¯s instructions, but also believed in Shen Rui¡¯s vision. The remote Dengzhou could be as prosperous as it is today, let alone Henan, the hinterland of the Central Plains!  The Lu family was deeply tied to Shen Rui, and they helped each other. However, when Shen Rui's letter arrived in Shandong, the 16th son of the Lu family had not returned from Liaodong, so Mr. Lu Qi sent his eldest son-in-law Liu Guangnan and another son of the clan Lu Ershi.  Saburo was sent to help.  As for the Han family, their main livelihood is to raise boats for fishing, raise seafood in the sea, and run a large restaurant. They typically rely on the sea to eat from the sea, which is completely incompatible with the inland province of Henan. ?????????????????? But Mr. Han is a transparent person, and he told Mr. Shen directly that the Han family can¡¯t lag behind, and they can¡¯t go to sea in the winter, so he sent all the third and fourth masters Han over.  "It is said that fishing in the river and raising fish in the puddles are all common routines. I asked my two sons to think about it carefully. If it is not feasible to open some restaurants and inns in Henan, it will also share the worries of Mr. Shen. ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? out of Henan, the three and four people all have sad faces. Henan is facing a famine and food is a problem at the moment. How many restaurants are there?  !  "But Mr. Han is really not an ordinary bad-tempered man. He is a master who can really pick up a cane and chase his son to death. Who dares to refute!  He hurriedly followed the Zhu family.  Since they came to help with disaster relief, the wealthy merchants were not short of money, so they also raised a batch of food and grass.  It¡¯s just that banditry is rampant in Henan, and everyone is afraid that something unexpected will happen. Even if they go with the wind, they can¡¯t save so many grain trucks. They all consider whether to wait until Jiang He¡¯s army goes south, and ask the soldiers from the guard station to escort a section to join the army.  When they arrived at Dongchang Mansion, they happened to meet someone arranged by Shen Rui to take the steward of Prince Zhao's Mansion to collect food. The Pingshan Guards were also greeted by Zhou Xian and dispatched a large number of soldiers to escort the food and grass.  The wealthy merchants were overjoyed and hurriedly brought the grain carts together, and came to Anyang together under the escort of soldiers.  When they arrived in Anyang, Shen Rui had already gone to Weihui Mansion, and the new magistrate of Zhangde Mansion was in charge of handling related matters.  And the new general judge is none other than Shen Xiu.  However, after the siege of Wu'an County was lifted that day, Gao Wenhu immediately submitted the detailed battle report back to the capital in accordance with the rules.  Heroic deeds such as the Wu'an County officials and people's whole-hearted defense of the county are what Shou Ge likes the most, so he naturally wants to write a special book about them, in order to seek rewards for the living and compensation for the dead in this battle.  Brother Shou was really impressed after reading it.  At the same time, Shen Rui also made a secret report, mentioning that Du Min, the patrol censor, and Shen Xiu, the county magistrate, discovered that Zhu Youming, the auxiliary general of Linzhang Palace, was doing something illegal, and they were able to quickly put down the "rebellion" in Linzhang Palace. These two people also contributed. ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Du Min, as a patrol censor, abandoned the city and fled. That is a third-class crime.  Moreover, this man had brought bad luck to the Xia family of the queen's mother-in-law back then. Brother Shou had a very bad impression of him, so he reluctantly gave him an equal measure of merit and demerit, but this official was also beaten to the end - why should he be an official if he didn't care about the people?  Son! ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? out??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? out??????  The Tongzhi of Zhangde Prefecture has been vacant for a long time. Xian Tongpan He Hanzong has always had good performance and contributed a lot in disaster relief, so he was promoted to Tongzhi, while Shen Xiu was promoted to Tongpan.  Naturally, the magistrate of Wu'an County was promoted to the county magistrate, and the chief bookkeeper and dianshi were all promoted to one level, and everyone was happy.  And Yu Pan, the prefect of Zhangde, was "seriously ill and unable to govern", but now it is He Hanzong who acts as the prefect.  Yu Pan pretended to be cruel before, but he couldn't recover all at once, so he still complained of illness, thinking that Shen Rui would never stay in Zhangde Mansion for the rest of his life. He just waited for the murderer to leave, and he would slowly get better.  By then, the disaster situation in Zhangde Mansion will be greatly improved, and he will be able to reap a number of political achievements.  "Unexpectedly, Lord Shen was "sympathizing with his subordinates" and specially asked a famous military doctor to come to see him. He was told that he was extremely ill and that he was just one breath away from coffin flesh. He was determined not to be able to take care of him in a year and a half.  Yu Pan suspected that Shen Rui was taking advantage of the situation and used a "serious illness" to force him to become an official.  Phew, he was just at the right time in his official career, and he was still waiting for good news from the capital. He might be promoted, so how could he resign?  He pushed his Tai Chi hand, not thinking that Governor Shen was a sharp swordsman, so he turned around and sent a team of soldiers to "guard" him. He said he was afraid that he would "risk his own life for the country" and wanted him to live a good life and be thorough.  Okay, let's go to the director again.  Yu Pan was so angry that he couldn't do anything about it. He expected that Shen Rui wouldn't dare to harm him, so he held back for the time being and waited for news from the capital, hoping that he would succeed. The man named Shen would not be able to stay in Henan for long.  Magistrate Yu¡¯s ¡°serious illness¡± is not just a day or two. He Hanzong has also been working as an agent for a long time, and related matters are?It has been done for a long time, so there is no problem in taking over.  And this time, not only was he not punished for the civil unrest under his control, he was promoted, and was even hinted that he might become a prefect. He Hanzong couldn't help but feel high-spirited and became more energetic in doing things.  ¡°And because he was supported by Governor Shen, he also paid a lot of attention to Governor Shen¡¯s classmate Shen Xiu.  Although Shen Xiu is smart, he has never had any senior officials to give him advice, which is why he was not in harmony with his colleagues in Wu'an County.  Now with He Tongzhi's advice, he has become more enlightened and has a good reputation in the government office.  Of course, the reason behind the big tree of Governor Shen is also indispensable.  Where in the government office would there be a foolish young man who would not give Governor Shen a bit of a thumbs-down as his "classmate"?  When Shen Lian and his entourage arrived in Anyang, everyone discovered that, thanks to saving enough face for Shen Tongpan, it turned out that Shen Tongpan and Governor Shen were actually somewhat of a relative - Shen Xiu called Shen Lian without any secret.  As the "fourth uncle", he also explained to his colleagues that his wife's aunt was Shen Lian's sister. It was only thanks to the help of these uncles that he was able to study in the Shen family, which he has always remembered.  Everyone immediately became more polite to Shen Xiu. ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? am a lot of people, maybe eighty if not a hundred, is still a young classmate, and is different from the same year, so this relationship is not very valuable.  But it¡¯s different if you have relatives!  Even if the relationship between relatives has been moved three thousand miles away, it is much more genuine than that of classmates!  On the other side, Shen Lian was also filled with emotions when Shen Xiu called him "uncle".  Since Shen Xiu followed Dong Shuang in calling him uncle, he really let go of his identity as a descendant of the Shen family.  As for the connection between the Dong family and the brothers Shen Yan and Shen Xiu it was the Bai family who took the two brothers Shen Yan and Shen Xiu to the Shen family. Shen Yan was able to become a disciple of Shen Lian's brother-in-law Dong Juren in the Shen family.  Shen Xiu can only teach while learning.  Dong Juren liked Shen Yan's talents and talents and valued him very much. He also wanted to betroth his daughter Shu to him.  "It's a pity that Dong Shen was short-sighted. At that time, the second wife went south to choose an heir. Dong Shen thought that Shen Yan had a chance to become the second wife, so she hurriedly found Bai to arrange a marriage.  As a result, the second brother-in-law rejected Shen Yan and Shen Xiu's brothers and returned to the clan as concubines. Dong Shen immediately denied the marriage without saying a word, and instead gave her daughter to her nephew, the eldest grandson of the third brother-in-law, Shen Zhu.  Thinking of this, Shen Lian couldn't help but smile bitterly. Speaking of it, the people in the third room are really cold-blooded, and they are the same to the person in front of him, let alone "outsiders". ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? away from Dong Juren and won the exam at a young age. However, he failed four times and had no choice but to return to his hometown to live in peace.  In order to gain status in the clan, Sanfang took a job as a clan scholar for his son-in-law Dong Juren.  In fact, Shen Rui¡¯s biological mother, Sun Shi, also helped out!  However, no one from Sanfang to Dong Juren was grateful.  ¡°In fact, if we look at it in detail, Sun has done so much for her people, but how did her people repay her!  ?????????????????????????????????????????Today, Sun's son Rui Ge'er is still willing to pull people from the tribe. Nowadays, many tribesmen are taken care of by Rui Ge'er, and they go out to work in the capital, Shandong, and Liaodong to save a family fortune.  Didn¡¯t Shen Lian owe it all to Brother Rui?  Shen Lian would always feel extremely ashamed of those foolish things he had done greedily. ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? What blessings will he lose if he is selfish and does not accumulate virtue?  ??Look at Shen Yan, although he did not return to the clan, he later won the imperial examination and married an official's daughter. Now he is also working well as an official.  But Chen Zhu committed such a serious crime, harming his relatives and even the people of Songjiang, and was exiled thousands of miles away.  Dong Shen even swallowed the bitter fruit.  Although they were engaged before, Dong Shen and Mrs. Huda¡¯s sister-in-law had several quarrels over the dowry.  Mrs. Huda felt that her son was the number one scholar, and that in the future he would be matched with a good girl with outstanding appearance and wealth, so she did not like the Dong family. Later, she directly tore her skin and called off the marriage.  However, when Shen Zhu was exiled, Mrs. Hu Da came to Dong's house to bully and beat him up. It was not that Sister Shu was already Shen Zhu's daughter-in-law and she had to take care of Shen Zhu, but she also mentioned how much support Dong Juren had received from the Shen family.  , scolding the Dong family for being ungrateful and so on.  With such a commotion, Dong Juren was embarrassed to continue studying in the Shen family, and even more disgusted with the entanglement between the three families, he simply moved his family out of Songjiang and went to Fujian to join his son who had donated his official position.  This matter was a big deal at the time, and Shen Qi, as the clan leader, also stepped forward to take care of it, but the third family member claimed that it was a private matter, and it was true that the two families had been engaged.  Shen Qi had no choice.  Until the Dong family moved out, this matter was settled.  The third bedroom has been separated for a long time, and Shen Lian has been disgusted with Master Hu for a long time.It's 10 days.  Especially after Shen Zhu was exiled, the husband and wife of Huda refused to take care of their exiled son. Instead, they scolded Shen Lian, the fourth uncle, for having no conscience and not taking care of him. Shen Lian was really disgusted.  When they went to make trouble for the Dong family again and forced them to move out, although Shen Lian didn't like the eldest sister as a person, she secretly helped the Dong family with some money. They still kept in touch with each other over the years. In the first few years, Sister Shu was in the local area.  After marrying an ordinary scholar, Shen Lian once sent someone to congratulate her.  Unexpectedly, after going around and around, Shen Xiu, the younger brother of the Shen family, got married to the niece of the Dong family.  Shen Lian was full of thoughts at the moment. Even though he was good at socializing and socializing, he didn't know what to do when Shen Xiu called him uncle.  Fortunately, there were many people around, everyone was polite to each other, and there was no shortage of topics to talk about.  After the grain and rice arrived in the warehouse, the clerks got busy.  This time, Shen Xiu, the general judge, wanted to lead Lu merchants to the government office to meet He Tongzhi and some wealthy merchants and squires in the city.  Since he recognized his uncle, he wanted to ride with him in the same car.  Shen Xiu didn't have a good impression of Dong Juren or Sanfang. When the Dong family regretted their marriage, he was even more angry than his brother.  But after all, time has passed, and he has experienced many things since then. Looking back at that "broken promise" back then, it is nothing. ??????????????? In the end, the Dong family, whether it is a three-bedroom house or a junior house, has not achieved any good results. However, their brother has finally survived, and his resentment has been eliminated.  What¡¯s more, those things back then had nothing to do with Shen Lian, the fourth owner of the third house who had been doing business abroad.  After getting in the car, Shen Xiu smiled and said, "I heard that brother Xuan has entered school? What a joy! Congratulations, uncle!" When mentioning the most promising eldest son, Shen Lian laughed sincerely, "Finally, the family has a lot of money.  Your aunt, your aunt, and I are really happy to have a child who loves to read. I only hope that he can learn a little bit from your brothers, and it will not be in vain for the family to support him in studying. " Shen Yuan is really a rare person in the third room of the Shen family.  reading seeds.  After being taken to Shandong by Shen Lian, he entered Penglai Academy. Under the guidance of the mountain chief Lan Yan, he himself knew how to make progress and made rapid progress.  In order to attract investment to Dengzhou, Shen Rui wrote to Brother Shou asking for a "business registration" - someone who owned land and shops in the local area, hired a number of local laborers, and made certain contributions to the local area, such as building bridges and paving roads, which would truly benefit a place.  Only ordinary people are allowed to attach citizenship, and scholars who enter school with business registration will not be exempted from tax in the future.  Brother Shou made the decision to open a ¡®merchant¡¯ school. Twelve students will be admitted to the Shandong business school, twenty will be born, and twenty will be born, and one tribute will be given every two years.  Although the conditions for business registration are relatively harsh, the competition in the major imperial examination provinces in Jiangnan is so fierce that if you are not a first-rate scholar, you may not have the opportunity to be a small scholar in your life.  Therefore, this move in Shandong has really attracted some wealthy businessmen who want to change their families through the imperial examination to invest in Shandong.  Now Shen Rui, who is promoting investment in Henan, also plans to use the business registration method, but this is a story later.  But it is said that Shen Yuan easily passed the exam because he took the exam in Shandong.  At the mention of the happy event, the atmosphere in the carriage immediately became relaxed, and the estrangement between Shen Lian and Shen Xiu disappeared a lot.  Shen Lian asked concernedly about Shen Xiu's injury and greatly appreciated his righteous deeds in defending the city.  Shen Xiu smiled and said: "It was just a skin injury. I had a high fever for a few days at first. Thanks to the clever doctors who accompanied the army, the disease was cured with medicine. Now I am almost recovered." Shen Lianyin said: "We passed by Jinan Mansion and invited two  A famous doctor is here with me. I will see Mr. Tongzhi later, and I will ask these two to check your pulse again. Your body and bones are important, and you need to heal them thoroughly." Shen Xiu thanked him with a smile, and asked again:  "Are these two famous doctors here to give advice on planting medicine? I wonder when they can go to our Wu'an County?" Shen Lian couldn't help but smile and said: "Now that you have been promoted and are no longer in Wu'an County, you are still thinking about doing something for the people of Wu'an.  To make a living, he really cares about the people!¡± He then said: ¡°Don¡¯t worry, Brother Rui has already made arrangements. Once the matters in Anyang are settled, all the counties in Zhangde Prefecture will take a look.  " Shen Lian invited these two famous doctors not only to help Prince Zhao build the medical school, but also to take a look at the current situation of Henan's medicinal herbs so as to facilitate the management of Henan's medicinal herbs industry.  In fact, the four major medicinal herbs of Huaiqing Prefecture in Henan Province: Rehmannia glutinosa, Chinese yam, chrysanthemum and Achyranthes bidentata, were recorded as early as the Han Dynasty in the "Shen Nong's Materia Medica" and are already world-famous.  Zhangde Prefecture itself is also rich in medicinal herbs. Wu'an area has a large amount of Atractylodes, Gepu, and Polygonum multiflorum. Lin County is rich in Codonopsis pilosula, Forsythia suspensa, and Scutellaria baicalensis. Anyang, the prefectural city, also produces mint, trichosanthin, winter flowers, etc., and the resources are very rich.  In the Ming and Qing Dynasties of Shen Rui¡¯s previous lifeDuring this period, the Shanshen Temple Fair in Zhangdefu, Henan Province was a famous medicinal material trading market.  This time in Zhangde Mansion, Shen Rui wanted to focus on the medicinal herb industry and planned to set up a medicinal material market in advance.  The medicinal materials from the surrounding prefectures and counties are gathered together in one place, with a large output and a wide range of varieties. Medicinal materials merchants from the north and south can buy them all at once, and they are famous for their medicinal properties, so they don't have to worry about running out of sales.  Once the brand is established and there are more merchants traveling from north to south, it will inevitably lead to the rapid development of local related industries.  Shen Rui plans to build Zhangde Mansion into a benchmark model, just like Dengzhou Mansion, so as to promote the development of the entire Henan Province.  Of course, food is the foundation.  Shen Rui didn't expect the medicine merchants to transport food on their own initiative.  He will not give up local food cultivation. After all, turning Henan into a major grain-producing province is his ultimate goal.  He has asked the Qin family to bring some overseas seeds from Fujian to Henan for trial planting. The first batch of experimental fields are those in Linzhang County that are close to the Zhangshui River and have fertile land.  We made great efforts to support Li Ji's water conservancy and irrigation projects, asked several horse markets at the border to buy more cattle, promoted Zhuzi's warehouse to ensure the rational use of cattle and labor, and set up "experts" to give heavy rewards in accordance with the old practice in Shandong to promote the new  The planting method can be described as a multi-pronged approach that strongly encourages farming.  Shen Rui also discussed these plans with Shen Xiu.  Shen Xiu originally had the desire to benefit one party, and now he is even more motivated.  At this time, when talking to Shen Lian about promoting the cultivation of medicinal herbs, he was very clear-cut, and it was obvious that he had done enough homework.  Shen Lian was happy to see him so capable, and only hoped that Shen Rui's "big plan" could be completed as soon as possible.  As the two chatted, they couldn't help but mention various things in Wu'an County, and they couldn't help but mention Dong Shuang.  Shen Rui¡¯s letter to Shen Lian did not go into detail about Dong Shuang¡¯s experience. He only mentioned that Shen Xiu was married to Dong Shuang.  Shen Lian didn¡¯t know how Shen Xiu and Dong Shuang got together.  Since Shen Lian was a relative of the Dong family, Shen Xiu mentioned Dong Shuang's experience and politely inquired about the current situation of Dong Juren's family.  Shen Lian would not mention Sister Shu, she could only say that everything was fine.  I couldn't help but sigh in my heart. If Dong Juren was still in Songjiang, he would never have allowed his widowed nephew to force his niece into such a situation. It's a pity that the Dong family had moved to Fujian at that time. The mountains and rivers were far away, so how could they take care of it.  ¡°However, if Dong Shuang had not experienced that kind of experience, I am afraid that he would not have this marriage with Shen Xiu now.  Seeing Shen Xiu talking about Dong Shuang's various deeds during the defense of the city, his face was full of pride, and Shen Lian was also happy for them from the bottom of his heart.  ??I can¡¯t help but sigh, there is a certain destiny somewhere.  Now, it¡¯s not a bad thing.  * * While Shen Lian was negotiating with Prince Zhao's Mansion on building a medical school and an engineering school, Shen Rui was in Weihui Mansion City preparing to leave.  In fact, he should have left long ago. He hoped to reach Kaifeng Mansion before the year.  It¡¯s just that promoting the clearing of the land in Wei Hui Mansion is more troublesome than he thought.  Because your king, whose fiefdom is in Weihui Mansion, refuses to see guests because he is ill.  King Ru is the eleventh son of Xianmiao, and is the son of King Yi, King Heng, and Concubine Zhang.  King Yi and King Heng were older and left the palace early to become feudal lords. One was in Jiangxi and the other was in Shandong.  King Ru was young and was raised in the palace of the Empress Dowager Zhou until he became the vassal of Wei Hui in the 14th year of Hongzhi.  At that time, there were rumors that Xiaomiao was not having enough heirs, and the Empress Dowager Zhou kept several "little royal brothers" such as King Ru, King Jing, King Rong, and King Shen in the palace, just in case. ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? This rumor has been revived again, but it has nothing to do with your king anymore?  Probably for this reason, he seemed indifferent to all matters in the court.  Although his brother, King Yi, was in Jiangxi, he had no friendship with King Ning. Instead, he had a lot of hatred. In order to highlight his different status, King Ning did a lot to suppress other sects. Not long ago, the imperial court issued regulations on sects and vassals.  At that time, King Ning reported to Zongzhi that among all his illegal deeds, there was one that was beneficial to the palace.  King Ning was praised by the court for this report, and he was qualified to "discipline lawbreakers in the sects", so he intensified his efforts to suppress other sects in Jiangxi.  King Yi was so angry that he often wrote letters to his brothers to scold King Ning.  This time, the young master of the Ning Mansion went to Beijing and passed by Wei Hui. He had not been allowed to visit King Ru since he was a child, but King Ru directly complained that he was ill and did not give him a single coin.  "And King Ru's other brother, King Heng, had a lot of dealings with Shen Rui because he was in Shandong. ???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? away?? also got involved.  The Prince of Jining disappeared without a trace from the Houde Palace, so Prince Heng quietly retracted his foot.  Although Prince Heng's Mansion later had some ideas about Si Xiang of the Imperial Ancestral Temple, and tried its best to create the image of a wise king, donated money to medical clinics, etc., Shen Rui once "regardless of past grudges" and helped promote it, and reported to the court, so that Prince Heng also received a commendation  .  "But your king will not have any good impression of Shen Rui because of this. On the contrary, he is afraid of Shen Rui's various methods and does not want to deal with him.  This led to the current situation of still claiming to be ill and refusing to see Shen Rui.  There is of course a hidden field in your palace, but since there are no branches or heirs, and there are few evil deeds, you are not afraid of "snatching the house" to tamper with you.  Shen Rui also didn¡¯t want to forcefully go to King Ru¡¯s farm to clear the land. After all, if there was a conflict, it would not only be King Ru who would be offended, but also King Heng and King Yi.  King Yi is in Jiangxi.  Although King Yi and King Ning are at odds, and although King Ning is certain to be destroyed, Shen Rui still does not want any changes to occur.  Variables mean that more people and soldiers will lose their lives.  Shen Rui is not a saint, but he does not want to make unnecessary sacrifices.  Therefore, since King Ru refused to cooperate, he planned to go around first and clear the rest of Weihui.  Of course, this will inevitably cause some wealthy families to take issue with your palace, and may also intensify some conflicts, but after all, Shen Rui and Liao Boring are both famous, and it is not easy for any wealthy family to jump out to resist.  For this reason, Shen Rui also discussed with Liao Boring and left him to "guard" first.  When the land-scratching eunuch heard this, he immediately patted his chest solemnly and promised that he would definitely keep an eye on the Wei Hui Mansion and handle all the disaster relief and settlement matters.  ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????mbmbps out out of nowhere??  Lord Shen is such a good person!  "Good man" Master Shen sneered in his heart. He didn't know what this eunuch was thinking. It's just that the time has not come yet, and when the Henan disaster relief and the Qing Dynasty are over, this man will have to spit out whatever he eats!  After the two of them had reached a consensus, Shen Rui took the lead with Gao Wenhu and Zhou Xian's men.  On this day, a group of people entered the boundary of Kaifeng Prefecture and temporarily stopped at Lintingyi in Yanjin County. Suddenly Wang Guangzi came all the way from the capital on horseback.  He was obviously very tired from traveling all the way. When he rolled off the horse, he almost lost strength and collapsed. He was carried to see Shen Rui by the guards.  Shen Rui couldn't help but be shocked, knowing that if something serious had not happened, he would never be like this.  There was no secret room available here, so Shen Rui could only quickly send everyone away and ask the guards to guard the door.  Wang Guangzi drank half a pot of tea in one go. After regaining his breath, he said urgently in a hoarse voice: "My boss asked me to come and tell the second master quickly that Mr. Shen Li has been tricked by someone. His handwriting has been imitated and his seal has been stolen. Please submit a letter."  Let the young master of the Ning Mansion be the chief minister of the Imperial Ancestral Temple"
