Chapter 59 Transfer Order
Chapter 59 Transfer Order
The eldest princess developed a strong curiosity about Zisu: "This child is so capable, it's a pity he's not a boy, otherwise, he might even be able to be ennobled and appointed as prime minister!"
Prince Consort Jiang Shihua also sighed, "Yes, this child is truly remarkable. If our daughter were half as sensible and half as clever as her, I would be at ease! Princess, you must be stricter with your daughter in the future, and never let her develop a spoiled and ignorant personality!"
The eldest princess said, "I know, but my daughter is still young! I'll be stricter with her when she turns five, okay?"
Jiang Shihua: "No, Yue'er is already three years old. It's time to be stricter! They say you can see a person's future from the age of three. If a three-year-old isn't taught properly, he'll grow up crooked! And once he's crooked, it'll be even harder to straighten him out!"
"Alright, I understand. I'll definitely be stricter with her!" The princess listened to her husband's words.
Jiang Yue overheard her parents' conversation and developed a strong curiosity and a little jealousy towards Zisu.
Hmph! Father is so mean, how dare he look down on me like that! I am a very sensible and well-behaved child, not some spoiled and domineering young lady or a pampered princess like that, I don't want to be like that!
Princess Qianjiao, the daughter of Consort Shu, became lawless because of Consort Shu's favor with the Emperor. She not only bullied the children of important officials, but also other princes and princesses, making her extremely disliked.
Jiang Yue doesn't want to be like that shameless child!
Is that woman named Zisu really that likable? When can I get to know her?
Princess Jiang Yue sat on the railing of the veranda, looking up at the bright moon, silently reciting something in her heart.
Sweet potatoes and potatoes were ready for harvest, and as expected, there was a bumper harvest. Sweet potatoes yielded 20 shi per mu, and potatoes yielded 15 shi per mu.
This success is due to the fact that the land in Zisujia was reclaimed wasteland last year and is not yet very fertile. However, it is all the result of her careful cultivation.
The old clan chief and the prefect were overjoyed: If this were planted on fertile land, how much would the yield be per acre? Perhaps, the yield per acre would double? Hmm, that's very possible!
The prefect wrote a memorial overnight and, through the eldest princess, delivered it to the emperor's desk. This time, the prefect not only did not downplay Zisu's contributions, but also portrayed Zisu's uncle, Yu Zhe, as a great hero!
The emperor was overjoyed upon reading the memorial.
If cold-resistant and adaptable crops like sweet potatoes and potatoes were promoted throughout the Western Liang Kingdom, even in years of severe drought, there would be no need to worry about unrest! As long as the people have enough food to eat, why would they cause trouble?
A transfer order was issued to bring Yu Zhe back from Yi County.
At this time, Yu Zhe had only been in office in Yi County for a year. Public security, agriculture, and commerce in Yi County were all on the right track and were showing a thriving scene.
"I'm about to leave, and I'm really going to miss it!" Upon receiving the transfer order, Yu Zhe couldn't help but sigh with emotion.
The transfer order stipulated the following for Yu Zhe: from the date of receiving the order, he was to leave Yi County one year later. Before leaving, he was required to arrange all the major affairs of Yi County and properly hand over the reins to the person who would succeed him. The person who came to take over the reins initially served as a registrar, and was promoted to magistrate only when Yu Zhe left.
For decades, Yi County has enjoyed a rare period of prosperity and stability, and this positive situation must not be allowed to be destroyed. The person who will take over is also a good official, and his hometown is Ba County.
This man, in his early twenties, was a newly appointed scholar who had passed the imperial examination the previous year. From a young age, he had harbored a grand ambition to contribute to the prosperity, stability, and peace of his hometown. Now, he finally had the opportunity to serve the people of his hometown. He happily handed over various complicated matters to Yu Zhe, which greatly comforted Yu Zhe.
Yu Zhe was originally very worried that after he left office, the good situation he had worked so hard to create would be ruined by corrupt officials or cowardly officials.
Now he can finally leave in peace.
