Although Yu Shao returned to the Wang family compound, he did not talk about the experience of going to Xiaohui's house this time, he was determined to step into the rivers and lakes, so he should not let the people around him be frightened, and it was natural to help for the righteousness of his friends, but even the people who loved him did not want to see it. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 infoBut the road ahead is vast, and many things are beyond the control of a person as immature as Yu Shao.

On the stone wall by the Taihu Lake, there is still a young boy diligently practicing his 'Orchid Three Tribulation Fingers', two beautiful girls and an innocent maid frolicking by the lake, occasionally looking at the mood of the child. On the surface, the young boy looked clear and enthusiastic, and he practiced the moves that everyone came up with together repeatedly, and soon his face was covered with sweat.

Bai Mingyue saw that Yu Shao was a little tired, so she walked over to let him rest, and took out a white silk scarf to wipe away Yu Shao's sweat. Yin Xiaomei looked a little jealous, pouted, and looked at Yin Xiaomei eating and covering her mouth and laughing. Yin Xiaomei waved her pink fist and pretended to teach the girl a lesson. But the girl quickly ran away.

"You rest first, if you want to hurry, you can't reach it, and don't be impetuous." Bai Mingyue said softly.

"Well, I'm really a little anxious, thank you Yue'er for reminding me." Yu Shao said: "If your silk scarf is dirty, I will buy you a few more yuan to compensate for it another day." ”

Bai Mingyue blushed and said: "You have this heart, you can be seen by the little sister, if you don't send her, don't be angry." After speaking, he lowered his head shyly, put the silk scarf back in his pocket, and took out a small bottle and poured out a pill, which was extremely fragrant, Bai Mingyue personally sent it to Yu Shao's mouth with a crisp hand, and said: "I have developed some 'cold mud pills' and added some more medicinal materials."

Yu Shao swallowed the pill in one gulp, and a chill suddenly passed through his chest, and he breathed a sigh of relief, which was very refreshing. said: "This pill smells much better than before, and only you, who are as beautiful as a fairy, can concoct such a panacea, I don't know if it is the blessing of that world's cultivation that sent you to me." Yu Shao said jokingly.

"I'm starting to be serious again, ignoring you." After speaking, he stuffed the small bottle into Yu Shao's hand and turned to Yin Xiaomei.

Seeing Bai Mingyue coming back, Yin Xiaomei asked, "What are you doing?" Qingqing, I've been so long, have I been being feathered less? Now he has a virtue with the nasty embryo. ”

Bai Mingyue blushed and did not answer.

The girl couldn't help but smile and said, "Sister Bai, you are so good to the young master, Sister Yin was jealous just now." After saying that, he jumped away again.

"You dead girl is also sharp-toothed, see how I clean you up." After saying that, he chased after him.

Bai Mingyue also laughed out loud.

Yu Shao saw that the three girls were so lively and came over, but the three women only cared about each other, and Yu Shao was cold. It seems that he can't speak in the women's pile. I had to watch them make enough trouble before they went back to the compound together.

Yu Shao stayed at home for three days, Xiaohui finally sent a letter, this time Yu Shao talked to his father very seriously, he wanted to go to Nanjing to see, and the young master of the Huwei Dart Bureau together, without Bai Mingyue and Yin Xiaomei, so that his father did not have to worry about his safety. Yu Shao's father didn't say much, just nodded and let Yu Shao go.

In the dead of night, Yu Shao secretly set off, and also left a note in the study, so that Bai Mingyue and Yin Xiaomei could rest assured.

When Yu Shao's ferry arrived in Wuxi City, it was already white, so he parked Nangong's boat at the pier, went ashore and walked through the market and bought some breakfast, eating while walking. When he came to the Huwei Dart Bureau, Xiaohui was already ready to go, Yu Shao stepped on a tall horse, and Xiaohui walked in front, followed by people pushing carts, which were filled with elm boxes, and there were many dart masters on both sides, and some people from the government followed closely.

The land of Jiangsu and Zhejiang in the south of the Yangtze River has been rich in the world since ancient times, not far from the capital Nanjing, at the beginning of the founding of the Ming Dynasty, this area was Zhang Shicheng's territory, the local tyrants and inferior gentry supported him, he finally surrendered to the Yuan Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang defeated Jiangnan in order to retaliate, Jiangnan became a place of heavy endowment, several times that of the Central Plains, but it is still so rich, and the local officials are of course rich in oil and water. In order to send the tax money to the capital to arrive safely, and the amount is really huge, I had to go by water, and there were people from the Huwei Dart Bureau escorting both roads. On the contrary, the land route is safer, and the water route is Xiang Batian himself.

When he arrived at the pass, Xiaohui took the list of darts received, and then brought the pass issued by the government to show the officers and soldiers. In order to avoid entanglement, Xiaohui stuffed them with some silver taels.

The dart car entered the Changzhou Mansion smoothly, and these official darts needed to be verified by the Changzhou Mansion before they could go to the capital, but the main seal official here only took out the blank account book stamped with the riding seal to the accompanying officials, and did not verify the number, and the accompanying officials carried down a box without a seal from the dart car and continued on the road.

Xiaohui was not surprised, and saw that Yu Shao was a little suspicious, so he told him: "Because the money and grain will be lost in the process of transportation, the number at the time of shipment must not match the number when the household department receives it, but how much is lost on the road, the officials do not know in advance, and only when they arrive at the household department can they know the difference." Therefore, officials used to use air-printed documents to fill in the actual money and grain figures on the spot in the capital. Of course, there is no official who doesn't want to fill his pockets, that box is full of silver taels, Jiangnan is so rich that a box of silver is nothing, and the officials here are not rich and armory." Xiaohui said lightly, but Yu Shao was still a little shocked, the old housekeeper's pawnshop couldn't earn so much silver taels in his life, but these people didn't blink their eyes, and dared to put a seal on the blank account book, this expense can not be said at will.

Yu Shao couldn't help but ask Xiaohui: "Did the emperor acquiesce to this?" Do you know that the emperor was born poor, and he hates these corrupt officials who are rich and unkind. ”

Xiaohui smiled and said: "Yu Shao, you are still very immature, I usually see you so clever, but now you are elm head." Every year, the local government is required to send someone to the household department to report the financial revenue and expenditure accounts, and all the accounts must be fully consistent with the household department after being audited before they can be settled. If any of these items do not match, the re-registration must be rejected and the original local authority seal must be affixed to complete the application. Due to the inconvenient transportation and the long distance between the two countries, it will inevitably take a lot of time if it is necessary to send it back for reconstruction, so the officials who go to the household department for examination have prepared blank books with stamped letters in advance for use. This was originally from the existing habitual practice of the Yuan Dynasty, when the Yuan Dynasty, the government and the government had the first signature and seal in the text, and then the book, called the "empty seal", since the establishment of the Yuan Dynasty, the phase has not changed. It has never been expressly forbidden, and there will be loss of money and grain in the process of transportation, so the number from the delivery to the receipt of the household department must not match, and the officials cannot predict in advance how much is lost on the road, and only when the household department is about to declare can they know the difference, so the officials who sent Beijing are accustomed to filling in the actual number with empty printed documents in the capital. Of course, there are always officials who enrich their own pockets, and the household department is even richer in the world."

Yu Shao smiled and shook his head, not as free and easy as Xiaohui, he thought that this matter would be liquidated sooner or later, but he didn't debate with Xiaohui, and he didn't want to dwell on this issue, they all said that the ups and downs of the sea were too deep, and the last thing Yu Shao wanted was to enter the officialdom.

After the Danyang dart car turned to the direction of Jurong, there are many lakes here, and the road is muddy and not easy to walk.

Yu Shao suddenly found that there were thorn strips on the road, and was about to dismount and drag it away, but Xiao Hui immediately stopped him and said, "If you see thorn strips, there is something ahead." It's called 'the tiger blocking the way', and you can't pick up these thorny strips by yourself, you have to be ready to meet the robbers." Xiaohui ordered the "wheel pan head".

All the Dart Riders gather together to prepare for the battle.

There was a team of people and horses in front, and the leading horse came over, said hello to Xiaohui, and saw a 'item' word on the dart flag, and a tiger head was painted on the flag on the other side, so he hugged his fist and said to Xiaohui: "The water washed the Dragon King Temple, and don't pass it down here." Consciously picked up the thorn strips and walked away like a whirlwind.

A false alarm, Xiaohui said to Yu Shao: "There are many lakes and rivers here, and there are many robbers, but they will still give face to the Huwei Dart Bureau, and they will not come to mess around."

"The boss seems to know you and greets you."

"I don't know them, and they may not know me, they only recognize this dart flag, and when they see that it is an official dart, they feel bored and busy in vain."

When the dart car entered the city of Nanjing, Xiaohui put away the flag, called his own people, and handed over the goods to the accompanying officials. The accompanying officials settled the rest of the money and gave Xiaohui a silver ticket, all of which were 'Daming treasure banknotes'. Xiaohui turned his head back non-stop and did not enter the capital. Yu Shao wanted to go shopping in Nanjing. Xiaohui said: "This time the dart, there are many people, if you enter the capital, it is not easy to control, and this is an official dart, those officials don't want us to follow them, the capital is so close to Taihu Lake, you can come and play at any time, but this time it doesn't work, we leave the place of right and wrong as soon as possible, at this time there are princes and nobles from all over the capital in the capital, there is no need to crowd in the capital with these people." ”

Yu Shao nodded, although there is no risk, at least he knows what the dart is all about, this is also a harvest, follow Xiaohui out and have to listen to him, Yu Shao followed Xiaohui with some unfinished thoughts, so smoothly walked back and forth, not even the capital entered, of course boring tight.

Come and swallow slowly, when you come back, there are a lot of empty dart cars are also slowly swallowed, with the dart people are happy, a dividend can be a big dart, the distance is not to mention, there is no risk on the road, you can go home and wait for the money.

Back in Wuxi City's Huwei Dart Bureau, Xiaohui's father did not come back, and the waterway was much farther and slower. Xiaohui gave them the money due to the dart masters early, and left a share for Yu Shao, of course, Yu Shao sternly refused. Xiaohui didn't insist, knowing that Yu Shao had been dressed and eaten since he was a child, and he couldn't look down on the smell of copper.

"Now we have to go and see Nangong, it's almost ten days back and forth, but it takes ten days to go back and forth in one day, this time the tax money is enough, Jiangnan is so peaceful, but the Nangong family is shrouded in smoke, and it can't help much, only to see if Nangong himself is still alive."

"If you slander a friend like this, you'll be nasty." Yu Shao knew that Xiaohui was duplicitous, and he actually cared about his friends.

"Then let's go"

Yu Shao and Xiao Hui walked towards the dock.

"Well, I heard that Nangong's sister-in-law is a stunning beauty, have you ever seen it?" Yu Shao asked.

"I often go to his house, but I haven't seen him once, and most of the meetings with Nangong are actually on Xishan Island, and I don't like the gloomy Nangong family."

"Bai Mingyue has seen it, even she praised her for captivating the city and the country, I really want to see this beauty, she must be someone with a wonderful story."

"Yu Shao, you didn't venture to the island for Nangong's sister-in-law, look at your lustful appearance."

"I'm squinting, and I'm still inferior to your nasty skills."

The two of them burst out laughing. Nangong gave Yu Shao's ship was still there, so he sailed to Gongshan Island with Xiaohui.

But this time the two were disappointed, and Xiaohui, who was close to the dock, blew the whistle, and a doorman came out to know Xiaohui. Xiaohui explained his intentions, but the man said that the second young master of Nangong went out the day before yesterday, as if he had gone to a far place, and I don't know exactly what the place is, the second young master didn't say anything to anyone, and it was inconvenient for me to let you go to the island when the man was not there, please forgive me.

The two had no choice but to go home.

When he woke up early the next morning, there was no one in the Wang family's compound, and the girl didn't come to serve him to wash his face and dress, so Yu Shao went downstairs to wash and eat some gruel, and came to the study.

Where did Nangong go? Yu Shao returned to the Wang family compound and kept thinking about this problem. Bai Mingyue saw that he had been thinking about something, and walked to him without speaking, although Yu Shao didn't take her with him, he also knew that he must have gone to Gongshan Island again, and it must be with Xiaohui, yes?
