On the bank of the river, a stone carving was quietly placed there.
It's hard to see what it looks like, it's covered in mud.
"What is this?" The old man stood in front of this thing, watching quietly, with a puzzled expression on his face.
This thing is not very high, it only reaches the old man's waist.
The overall appearance looks like a turtle.
"It looks more like a turtle, I don't know if it is!" the old man murmured.
"Who knows? Why don't you wash it off and have a look?"
"Row!"
Everyone started to clean up after talking.
It didn't take long for the dirt on it to be washed away.
"This is a tortoise!" The old man looked at the cleaned tortoise and said.
"What a turtle!"
The people around also echoed.
It was getting late, and these people had to go back.
It happened the next day.
In ancient times, it was a very rare thing to fish a stone turtle out of the river, so it didn't take long for this thing to spread throughout Yangqu County.
On the third day, this incident set off a huge wave in Yangqu County.
It even alarmed the magistrate and general county of Yangqu County.
In the hall of the county government office in Yangqu County, Tong Zhiyuan, the county magistrate, looked at the inspector standing in front of him, and asked in disbelief, "A stone turtle? But really? Where is it?"
"My lord, it's by the river outside the city. A few days ago, an old man named Wang came out of his net when he was fishing." The inspector said.
"Stone turtle, then this is a stone turtle!
Is there anything else near the stone turtle? " Tong Zhiyuan asked.
The patrol inspector shook his head and said, "I don't know, this is not very clear!"
"The birth of the stone turtle is auspicious. There must be other special things around!" Tong Zhiyuan thought for a while and became excited.
"How about this, take someone and me there to see that stone turtle!" Tong Zhiyuan said and walked outside.
Not long after, Tong Zhiyuan headed towards the river outside the city in a carriage.
At this time, Liang Yihe, the chief county, also headed towards the river outside the city in a carriage.
The strange thing is that the patrol did not find out where the stone turtle was, and Tong Zhiyuan walked towards the river bank as if he knew it.
Not long after, Tong Zhiyuan arrived at the stone turtle.
At this time, Shigui had already surrounded a large group of people. These people gathered around Shigui, looking at it strangely and discussing it a lot.
"It's auspicious to let them all back away!" Tong Zhiyuan said with great interest.
Tong Zhiyuan is also very strange, he has not seen this stone turtle, so he made it auspicious.
The inspector was also curious as to why Tong Zhiyuan made it auspicious so quickly, but he didn't ask, and according to Tong Zhiyuan's order, dispersed the people around him.
Tong Zhiyuan came in front of the stone turtle, and walked around the stone turtle with a smile on his face.
At this moment, Liang Yihe, the chief county, also came to Shigui's side.
Liang Yihe got off the carriage and came to Shi Gui's side.
"My lord, how is it? Is this auspicious?" Liang Yihe pointed to the stone turtle in front of him and asked.
"Yes, yes, this must be auspicious. It is rumored that stone tortoises will come into the world in the prosperous age. Now is the prosperous age, so there will be auspiciousness. I think this stone tortoise is auspicious!" Tong Zhiyuan made a conclusion and directly thought This is Xiangrui.
Liang Yihe didn't refute, but echoed again and again, calling it auspicious.
Next, Liang Yihe and Tong Zhiyuan wandered around the stone tortoise, sometimes groping on the stone tortoise.
Tong Zhiyuan stopped in front of Shi Gui's mouth, and touched Shi Gui's mouth with his hand.
There was a small trap on Shi Gui's mouth, and Tong Zhiyuan opened that trap with ease.
"Click!"
The stone turtle's mouth opened, revealing a piece of beautiful jade that was as solid as suet.
"Is there jade?!"
Tong Zhiyuan was shocked, his eyes lit up, and he hurriedly took out the beautiful jade from Shi Gui's mouth.
The beautiful jade is as big as a palm, round in shape, with a hole in the middle, and red words engraved on it.
It's just that this character is an ancient seal character, which looks very simple.
"A sage emerges, and a flourishing age emerges! This is auspiciousness!"
Liang Yihe pointed to the beautiful jade in Tong Zhiyuan's hand, and shouted loudly.
"What? Is it auspicious? It's actually auspicious? I didn't expect this to be really auspicious?"
"Xiangrui? Why didn't I think of it?"
The surrounding onlookers started talking, they never expected that there would be a piece of beautiful jade in the mouth of this unattractive stone tortoise, and they never thought that this stone tortoise was actually auspicious.
"Hurry up and send Xiangrui to the county government!" Tong Zhiyuan yelled at the inspector who was maintaining order.
After the inspector heard about it, he hurriedly led people to move the stone turtle.
Tong Zhiyuan and Liang Yihe looked at each other and smiled, then heaved a sigh of relief.
From the beginning to the end, the people around did not see that this stone turtle had a great relationship with Tong Zhiyuan and Liang Yihe.
Not long after, Liang Yihe and Tong Zhiyuan returned to the county government office.
After the two returned, they hurriedly wrote the memorial.
After finishing writing, the two put the piece of beautiful jade and the memorial together and sent them to Xuanzhen.
Within a few days, the memorials of Liang Yihe and Tong Zhiyuan were placed on Zhao Wen's desk.
Because it came up through normal channels, the memorial passed through the Senate.
Now, almost all civil and military officials in the court know that there is an auspicious appearance in Yangqu County.
If this kind of thing happened in other dynasties, maybe it would be full of joy.
But in Zhao Wen's place, the entire Xuan Town fell into a strange atmosphere.
Zhao Wen sat in the imperial study room, looking at the memorial on the table and the beautiful jade engraved with ancient seal characters, with a sad expression on his face.
"Stone turtle? Beautiful jade? Auspicious?"
Zhao Wen supported his chin with his left hand, scratched his head with his right hand, and his face was full of weird expressions.
"I thought I wouldn't see this kind of trick, but I didn't expect to see it today.
The most common auspiciousness in history books actually appeared here, which is really unexpected! "
In fact, Zhao Wen is not so angry now, it is more of a playfulness and banter.
On Zhao Wen's desk, besides the memorial and beautiful jade sent jointly by Guo Liang Yihe and Tong Zhiyuan, there are also their biographical materials.
According to the biographical information of the two of them, they have been in Yangqu County for nearly three years.
These two men were gentry who took refuge in Zhao Wen a long time ago, but because Zhao Wen didn't have enough manpower, they were selected and sent to Shanxi.
These two have been working hard in Yangqu. Although they didn't have any dazzling achievements, they haven't had any major troubles.
The two are the kind of people who dare not cross the threshold. Under their governance, Yangqu is neither good nor bad.
Under their governance, the people of Yangqu are still doing well, and there are no major problems.
Shanxi Governor Wang Dacheng has many running dogs in Shanxi. According to Chen Lin's investigation results, almost all the prefectures and counties below Shanxi have Wang Dacheng's running dogs, but this Yangqu County has none, not only Liang Yihe and his colleagues Not Zhiyuan, even their subordinates have nothing to do with Wang Dacheng.
This Yangqu County is also the only county without mistakes.
"These two people are not the kind of people who are like wine bags and rice bags. How could they do such a thing? They shouldn't be!" Zhao Wen scratched his head, really unable to understand the reason.
Judging from the resumes of the two of them, although they don't have very strong abilities, they are not ordinary people, but why would such a person do such a thing?
Zhao Wen couldn't figure this out.
Zhao Wen played with the beautiful jade in his hand, rubbing the thumb of his right hand against the ancient red seal characters.
Not surprisingly, the red handwriting was rubbed off by Zhao Wen.
"This is Xiangrui?" Zhao Wen put the beautiful jade in his hand on the table and laughed again and again.
"Forget it, let these two people come to Xuanzhen directly, I want to ask clearly, what are the two of them thinking, and they would do such a thing." Zhao Wen closed the memorial of the two, looked at Chen Donglai, " Inform the Senate to ask Liang Yihe and Tong Zhiyuan to come to Xuanzhen!"
Chen Donglai walked out of the imperial study with Zhao Wen's order.
After Chen Donglai came to the Council, he told Liu Wenzhong Zhao Wen's order.
Liu Wenzhong also hastily arranged Zhao Wen's order.
In Shanxi today, the railway basically connects all major cities in Shanxi.
The distance between Yangqu and Taiyuan Mansion is not that far, so there is no railway in Yangqu.
Zhao Wen's order passed through his railway and reached Liang Yihe and Tong Zhiyuan within a few days.
After receiving Zhao Wen's order, the two tidied up and got on the train to Xuanzhen together.
On the train bound for Xuanzhen, Liang Yihe and Tong Zhiyuan sat opposite each other.
Tong Zhiyuan looked at Liang Yihe who was sitting in front of him, and asked, "What do you think His Majesty asked us to go to Xuan Town for?"
Liang Yihe said: "I don't know either. The order given to us by the Council of Political Affairs is just to go to Xuanzhen to meet His Majesty, and nothing else was said. I don't know why!"
"Do you think it's because of the auspiciousness? Could it be that His Majesty rewarded us for the auspiciousness we presented?" Liang Yihe asked.
Hearing what Liang Yihe said, Tong Zhiyuan's eyes lit up, and he said: "Hearing what you said, maybe it's true. Maybe it's because of this reason, maybe it's really because of us sending it up." Auspicious and decided to reward us.
After all, the auspicious auspiciousness we presented is the first auspicious auspiciousness in the current dynasty, so there is no telling! "
Tong Zhiyuan and Liang Yihe couldn't think of the reason why Zhao Wen asked them to go to Xuanzhen.
When the train stopped at Xuanzhen Railway Station, the two simply packed up and headed towards the palace.
Coming this way, although the two were tired, they didn't dare to delay for a moment, so they rushed to the palace in a hurry.
In the imperial study room, the two stood respectfully in the hall with their heads lowered, not daring to look at Zhao Wen.
Even the breathing of the two of them was cautious, not daring to pant heavily.
Zhao Wen didn't speak, and looked at the two quietly.
There was silence in the whole imperial study room, Tong Zhiyuan and Liang Yihe didn't know what Zhao Wen wanted to do.
Zhao Wen, who had been silent all this time, made the two of them panic.
"Can you tell me about the auspiciousness?" Zhao Wen sat behind the desk, playing with the piece of beautiful jade in his hands, and looked at the two of them playfully.
When Tong Zhiyuan and Liang Yihe heard this, they thought that Zhao Wen just wanted to hear about Xiangrui, and they were relieved at once.
"Your Majesty, speaking of this auspiciousness, it is truly remarkable..."
Tong Zhiyuan cleared his throat and started talking.
Tong Zhiyuan narrated all the process of discovering the auspiciousness, the location of the discovery, and the meaning of the auspiciousness, chatting endlessly.
Zhao Wen listened quietly without interrupting.

Hearing Tong Zhiyuan's voice, Zhao Wen really didn't know what to say.
Anyone with a discerning eye can see what this is all about.
Zhao Wen didn't need to think about it at all, he could figure out what was going on here.
