In the Ming Dynasty, the local government yamen was often the front office and the backyard residence, although there was a tradition of not repairing the yamen, but the backyard residence was often gorgeous.

In fact, this is only the third governor of the Ming Dynasty, the first two are the governor of Xuanda and the governor of Jiliao, and Hu Zongxian only used the governor's yamen as an office place, and he chose another place to live and negotiate with his staff.

Qian Yuan is familiar with this place, it is the place where Wang Minying and Hu Zongxian served as governors of Zhejiang one after another...... Poor the current governor of Zhejiang, Ruan Yi, no wonder he is stationed in Jiaxing Mansion.

Qian Yuan glanced at it a few times, it was much more beautiful than when Wang Min should have done it before, and he also built a new garden, a strange rockery, a gurgling spring, and a different mood.

"This was cultivated by Li Tianpet when he was in office." Wang Yin said casually: "Since the introduction of the law, the financial resources in the southeast have been tightened, and it is necessary to support both the official army and the new army...... Hi, silver is always not enough. ”

"But the Doge has no trace of using the money for himself." Shen Mingchen shook his fan to drive away the mosquitoes that flew in, "I hope that Zhan Cai will return to Beijing in the future to explain more." ”

In addition to Hu Zongxian and Qian Yuan, only Wang Yin, Shen Mingchen and Zheng Ruozeng were present tonight, and they were all old friends of Qian Yuan.

Qian Yuan caught a glimpse of Zheng Ruozeng's frowning brows, and asked with a smile, "Mr. Bolu doesn't seem to agree with this?" ”

Zheng Ruozeng's face changed, and he smiled bitterly: "It's not like that, it's just that something ...... something."

"To be blunt." Hu Zongxian's voice came from behind him, and he walked slowly, "Sending an envoy to sea and secretly sending a lot of money is my will." ”

"I don't know what to do." Shen Mingchen hurriedly explained: "Now the Japanese invade all parts of the coast as before, but it has been ......a long time since the Japanese leaders Wang Zhi and Xu Hai started a war."

"Okay, Jia Ze, where can Zhancai not know." Wang Yin smiled: "Although it is cool here, there are too many mosquitoes, how about going to the pavilion to drink tea?" ”

Everyone sat down in the pavilion, poured Wuyuan green tea, Hu Zongxian asked his servants to retreat, and even the two sons were driven away, and then he said: "Everyone else said, since Hu Ruzhen took office as the governor of Zhejiang, and then promoted to the governor of Zhejiang, the southeast rebellion gradually subsided, but that is just a rural talk." ”

"General Zongli was defeated in Jiaxing, and he had to transfer Lu Bo's father and son to relocate, Ning Shaotai's general Qi Jiguang is quite talented in military strategy, but he only has 1,000 soldiers, and the recruitment of new troops will be useful for at least a few months......"

"Therefore, Dong Weng sent envoys to delay the army, and to inquire about the military situation." Zheng Ruozeng explained in detail: "Wang Zhi and Xu Hai have been fighting for a long time, and they are basically at sea, and no one has witnessed it except for the Japanese Kou. ”

Shen Mingchen sighed: "Dong Weng is good at seeking the country, and clumsy at seeking his life......"

In addition to Hu Zongxian, the three of them looked at it together, Qian Yuan smiled and raised the teacup and took a sip, and did not answer, this is a fact, Hu Zongxian has merit in the country, but in the end he was defeated because of the court dispute, and he committed suicide because of a pretentious holy decree that no one believed, leaving the sentence "The sword buries the injustice, and the loyal soul surrounds the white clouds." ”

For example, Zheng Ruozeng and Wang Yin hoped that Qian Yuan would enter Hu Zongxian's shogunate, more because they hoped that Qian Yuan could communicate with the DPRK and China, but Shen Mingchen hoped that Qian Yuan's existence could leave a way back for Hu Zongxian.

In fact, this is in line with historical facts, after Hu Zongxian committed suicide, it was Shen Mingchen who ran for him to cry out for his grievances and wrote an inscription for him, and he admired Hu Zongxian the most in the shogunate, which has a lot to do with Shen Mingchen being a native of Ningbo.

Qian Yuan knew all about this, he put down the teacup, and asked with a smile: "It's not clear, who did the heavy money give to?" ”

"What is the difference between Wang Zhi and Xu Hai, or do you say it is with me, who do you say you gave it to?" Wang Yin scolded with a smile: "But Wang Zhi doesn't have much reaction to this, speaking of which, if it is given to Xu Hai, it may be able to play a role." ”

"Xu Hai is like a Mongolian, as long as he has silver, he is willing to do anything." Shen Mingchen replied casually.

Zheng Ruozeng shook his head, "It's not that Wang Zhi doesn't like silver, what he thinks about is opening the sea and banning trade." ”

"But it's impossible." Wang Yin said as he looked at Qian Yuan.

"It's not possible anytime soon." Qian Yuan nodded, "The Japanese are not destroyed, and the DPRK and China will never be allowed to open the sea ban, let alone trade." ”

"Besides, how was Ligang destroyed back then?"

"Wang Zhi will not be stupid enough to believe in the promise of the Southeast Government."

Qian Yuan held the empty teacup in his hand, pondered for a moment and said: "As early as the year before last, I said that Wang Zhi and Xu Hai are not the same kind of people, Wang Zhi is controllable, and Xu Hai is difficult to control. ”

Now the two are fighting infighting, which has both advantages and disadvantages for the southeast, and there will be more time to organize and train the new army, but once one side is completely defeated, and the other side swallows up the loser, its strength will inevitably increase greatly.

Whether you want to profit from it or prepare in advance, finding out the military situation is the most important thing.

But one thing to be clear is that Wang Zhi can survive, and Xu Hai will die. ”

Everyone nodded in agreement, in fact, after Wang Zhi went west from Ligang, although the control was not effective, but there was no large-scale invasion, several big turmoil was done by Xu Hai, once Xu Hai defeated Wang Zhi, his strength rose sharply, and he would inevitably raise troops to invade again, and at that time, there would be no peace in the southeast.

"I'm going west to Taizhou in the next day, maybe I can find out some inside information."

The meaning of Qian Yuan's words is very clear, I am willing to contribute to the southeast anti-Japanese war, but if I enter the Hu Zongxian shogunate, then don't mention it again.

After being quiet in the pavilion for a while, Hu Zongxian nodded slowly, "Now there are Tan Zili, Jingchuan Gong, Qi Jiguang in Taizhou, and I hope that Zhancai will not hesitate to help." ”

"As it should be, they are all old friends of Zhancai...... Oh, Tan Zili is not an old friend. Wang Yin said with a smile: "When there is any news, let someone send it directly." ”

Zheng Ruozeng and Shen Mingchen don't know much, but Hu Zongxian knows it in his heart, he and Wang Yin have talked about this topic in private, Qian Yuan's previous understanding of Wang Zhi and Xu Hai is by no means hearsay, it is likely that there is eyeliner among the widows, and the status of this eyeliner is not too low.

Qian Yuan didn't think so deeply, and sighed after agreeing to the promise: "Open the sea to ban trade, Kou turned into business, strictly enforce the sea ban, business turned into Kou, but the princes of the court and China turned a blind eye to this, whose fault is it?" ”

"No matter what, only by finding out everything at sea can we decide what to do next."

"But there is one thing that I hope the governor will pay attention to, even if the rebellion gradually subsides, and the DPRK and China intend to open the sea to ban trade, there will be elite guards along the coast, and there will be warships on the sea."

Compared with two years ago, Hu Zongxian's figure is getting thinner and thinner, but he is energetic and his eyes are focused, he nodded and said: "Qi Jiguang has been defeated several times, and he is almost unharmed, and now he is recruiting new recruits for training in Yiwu; Dong Bangzheng, deputy chief soldier of Wusong, and Tang Shunzhi, a fellow soldier in Taizhou, have made considerable progress in choosing places to build ships. ”

Zheng Ruozeng said with a smile: "It is said that Qi Yuanjing's art of war was born from Zhancai, is it true?" ”

"By the way, the defeated widow itself is not damaged, the first battle was outside Huating City, and it was rumored that the exhibition was falsely reported at that time......"

Shen Mingchen said seriously: "Qi Yuanjing went to Taizhou for the first battle, and the Japanese Emperor saw the bamboo spear and exclaimed, the broom star is coming...... The Japanese did not dare to step forward and retreated! ”

In the past few years, as soon as the Japanese invaders meet Qian Yuan, they will suffer losses, and in Ningguo Mansion, the Japanese Kou said that Qian Yuan has the nickname of the broom star on the sea, which is really not fake, and now this nickname has spread to the mainland.

The sound of laughter sounded in the pavilion, and Qian Yuan's several words and justifications were blocked, and even Hu Zongxian, who was not smiling, was laughing. (Recommended reading: Reading Files 2013)
