Houmen's concubine

Chapter 228 Going to the Prefect

Since Xu Jinshen and Ji Yu left Wang Tong'er, Xiuyun and Xiaoyan were beside her.

"Xiaoyan, follow me to the magistrate's yamen." Wang Tong'er waved at Xiaoyan and said.

"Come on, Young Master Qin." Xiao Yan agreed, and walked forward in a dizzy manner.

She promised in front of the emperor that there is a way to increase the production of sea salt, so early this morning, she took Xiao Yan to the magistrate's yamen, planning to find Ning Zhifu.

After all, scientific development is the primary productive force, and there is no way to directly change the development trajectory at that time by simply bringing the ready-made science and technology of the past.

Therefore, she has to go to the salt field where the sea salt is dried, so that she can know how ancient people dried sea salt and the difference from modern sea salt, and then she can give feasible suggestions to really increase the production of sea salt.

To go to the salt field, the magistrate must send a servant to accompany him. Otherwise, if you go on your own, you can only wait and see from a distance, and you must not see how the salt farmers actually operate at close range.

Since Zhu Yanshen, a salt merchant, was arrested, the salt field is now guarded by officers and soldiers, and no one is allowed to approach without official documents from the government.

Arriving in front of the magistrate's yamen, Xiao Yan stepped forward and greeted the yamen guard, "Hey, brother Zhang and Yang are still on duty today, please inform the magistrate that Qin Yu came to see Lord Ning."

A few days ago, due to the case of the salt merchant Zhu's family, Xiao Yan followed Xie Yuheng to the magistrate's yamen countless times, so he was familiar with most of the yamen guards.

Seeing it was Xiao Yan, the two yamen servants guarding the gate hurriedly bowed and said politely to Xiao Yan: "Yeah, it's Xiao Yan, you haven't returned to Beijing?"

"The magistrate is here, I'll go to inform you, you two later." The yamen servant surnamed Zhang immediately turned around and went to the yamen to report to the magistrate.

After a while, Master Li followed behind the yamen servant surnamed Zhang. Seeing Wang Tonger, Master Li bowed his hands politely and said, "Young Master Qin, follow me in, Master is waiting for you in the side hall."

Wang Tong'er bowed her hands and saluted the gray-bearded Master Li: "Qin Yu has met Master Li."

Master Li laughed and said, "Young Master Qin, please!"

The daytime should be the busiest time for the magistrate, and he will be promoted to trial the case.

However, as long as it is not a big case, ordinary small cases, such as fighting, neighborhood disputes, etc. have experience or the governor will undertake.

Otherwise, the magistrate has to do all the cases by himself without being overworked?

How can there be time to go to the teahouse theater to listen to ditties?
"Du Du..." Master Li knocked on the heavy mahogany door and reported in a low voice: "Master, Young Master Qin is here."

"Well, come in." A familiar voice came from the door, and then the door creaked and was pushed open by Master Li.

I saw Ning Zhifu, who was handsome and fair-skinned, wearing a red official robe, with Yunyan spreading its wings on the patch.

This was the second time Wang Tong'er saw him wearing official robes, and every other time she saw him, she was always in ordinary clothes.

However, today's prefect of Ning has a particularly strong official authority.

The official prestige of Ning Zhifu cannot be underestimated before. After all, he is the highest official in the locality, and he manages the fourth-rank officials of the imperial court in several counties under his jurisdiction.

It's just that he was either suppressed by the emperor's Longwei before, or suppressed by the high-ranking and powerful Xie Yuheng.

Ning Zhifu, who was inside the door, was dealing with official business behind the desk. When he saw Wang Tong'er coming in, he put down the official document in his hand and looked up at her.Wang Tong'er quickly bowed and saluted: "The student has met the magistrate."

Wang Tong'er is also a scholar now, and she must have called herself a student when she met the magistrate.

"Qin Yu, please sit down."

Every time Ning Zhifu saw Wang Tong'er, his attitude was extremely gentle.Not to mention, Wang Tong'er is highly valued by the emperor now, maybe, given time, I will still rely on her for support in the future.

Besides, I was always a fan of Young Master Qin.

"Look at the tea!"

As Ning Zhifu's voice fell, a beautiful servant girl came in with a tray and poured tea for Wang Tong'er.

Wang Tong'er pursed her lips and smiled at her, the servant girl blushed so much that she didn't know how to leave like a nympho.

It was Zhifu Ning who coughed a little "huh" that the little servant girl woke up from Wang Tong'er's enchanting beauty, and immediately bowed her head and walked away with small steps.

Ning Zhifu couldn't help laughing when he saw the little maid like this.

"Qin Yu, I have already found you a well-educated teacher, and you will go to his residence to study in two days." Zhifu Ning said, sipping a cup of tea.

"what?"

Wang Tong'er was caught off guard by surprise, she really forgot about this.

At that time, I had no plan to take the imperial examination, so I didn't keep in mind the emperor's instructions to Ning Zhifu to find her an old master.

She has been busy with her book shop these days, but luckily she has an all-purpose little inkstone by her side, otherwise, she might not be free to come to the magistrate today to talk to Mr. Ning about Haiyan.

"Master is an old acquaintance you know, the famous Confucian Huawen Pavilion in Qinzhou."

Wang Tong'er couldn't believe it: "Huh? Will the old man teach me?"

However, I am still very happy in my heart, and I will definitely benefit a lot from his old man's guidance!
The news that the magistrate Ning wanted to ask for a wife for the young master of the Qin family somehow reached the ears of the indifferent old Mr. Huawenge, who condescended to send a boy beside him to the magistrate's yamen to deliver a letter to Ning Zhiyuan , the letter stated that he was willing to teach Qin Yu personally.

After reading the letter, Ning Zhiyuan was extremely happy!
It really takes no effort to break through the iron shoes and find nowhere to find it!

He was worried about who to find to meet what the emperor said: a learned Confucian.

Isn't this Huawen Pavilion the only Confucian with the highest status in Qinzhou?
Ordinary people, even if they have money, may not be able to make the old gentleman open his mouth and nod to accept students. I didn't expect him to recommend himself...
It is conceivable that Mr. Hua is so fond of Qin Yu in his heart.

However, Qin Yu is indeed likable, and no one who has met her does not like her.

Except for the vicious aunt Zhu of the Qin family.

Not to mention myself, even the emperor fell in love with her at first sight. In order for her to take the Enke exam next year, he even made an exception for her and set up an exam room for her to take the county exam.

Unexpectedly, Qin Yu, the son of a businessman who didn't study much, lived up to the emperor's expectations and expectations, and passed the exam.

In fact, if I had personally invigilated the county exam with Xie Yuheng under the eyes of the emperor that day, I would probably have trembled with fear and couldn't hold the pen with trembling hands.

With the emperor here, what is the county examination? It is comparable to the palace examination!
Therefore, Wang Tong'er now has another layer of admiration in Ning Zhifu's heart.

"Master Zhifu, the students want to go to the salt field by the sea, and I hope you agree." Seeing Ning Zhiyuan looking at his unpredictable expression, Wang Tong'er interrupted his thoughts and explained the purpose of coming.

"Okay, I'll go with you." Ning Zhiyuan nodded his jaw immediately without saying a word, and not only agreed, but also accompanied her there.
