Chapter 525 Yangzhou is closed
By the time Chen Hong came to find Wei Changsheng again, it was already two hours later.
Wei Changsheng didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly walked up with Huang Changzong.
After Chen Hong and Wei Changsheng walked into the room, they saw Zhu Youxiao reclining on the couch, and Chen Yu'er, who was originally serving the emperor, was no longer by His Majesty's side at this time.
Wei Changsheng didn't dare to ask, he didn't even dare to look up, he just said with a respectful attitude: "Your Majesty, Huang Changzong is here." ”
"Let him in." Zhu Youxiao sat up straight and said.
It didn't take long for Huang Changzong to walk in from outside the door.
After seeing Zhu Youxiao, Huang Changzong hurriedly knelt on the ground and said, "Minister Huang Changzong, see Your Majesty." ”
"Alright, excuse me." Zhu Youxiao nodded and said.
Huang Changzong stood up and waited respectfully to the side.
"Are you all ready?" Zhu Youxiao looked at Huang Changzong and said, "Jinyiwei's side is about to make a move, they are going to move the Han family this time, and you should be able to take over the Han family's business immediately." ”
In fact, Zhu Youxiao, the other business of the Han family, didn't care, the only thing he cared about was the Han family's salt.
The salt business cannot be delayed, and in this regard, Huang Changzong must do a good job, and the supply of salt cannot be interrupted, nor can there be a salt shortage in various places.
Otherwise, you're prone to trouble. Without salt, distributors everywhere raise prices, and the consequence is that people have no salt to eat, and there will be problems.
"Back to Your Majesty, it's ready. If you do it here, we'll take it over right away. Huang Changzong hurriedly said: "The minister's men have arrived in the city. Jinyiwei will do it, and the minister will send someone to count the account books and contact the ship, and he will take over immediately. ”
"Alright, then you can go." Zhu Youxiao nodded and said, "Jinyiwei is going to do it, you go and keep an eye on it." ”
"Yes, Your Majesty." Huang Changzong hurriedly agreed, turned around and retreated.
After explaining this matter, Zhu Youxiao lay down again.
There was nothing going on in the past two days, and the next thing he had to do was watch the show and see who would jump out right away.
Jinyi guard yamen.
After Huang Changzong arrived, he met Xu Xianchun.
After the two met, they directly discussed countermeasures.
In fact, there is nothing to discuss, one person is arrested and sealed in the front, and the other person takes over in the back, and this is not the first time such a thing has been done.
When they were in Zhangjiakou, they had already done this kind of thing. The Jinyi guard arrested people in front, and the Internal Affairs Office collected the corpses on the side.
With the deterrence of Jinyiwei, basically no one dared to stretch out his hand at this time. After all, a batch of people have already been arrested, and I don't care about arresting another batch. Moreover, the Ministry of Internal Affairs has also accumulated a lot of talents over the years, so there is no problem with such a thing.
At the same time, Han Qi's face was a little ugly.
After Chen Tang, the prefect of Yangzhou, walked into the Jinyi Wei Yamen, he never came out.
Jinyi Wei Yamen gives people the feeling of being a man-eating beast, as long as one person is sent in, it will be filled in, starting from the town guard eunuch Zhang Wei to Yangzhou prefect Chen Tang, without exception.
This gave Han Qi a not-so-good premonition.
Han Qi left home and prepared to go to Nanjing.
This matter can't be solved in Yangzhou, and he needs to solve it in another place. Xu Xianchun was very strong after arriving in Yangzhou, although he didn't know why.
However, before leaving, Han Qi was also going to visit a person, and this person was Chen Zhenglin, the Yangzhou transit envoy.
In Yangzhou, if you talk about official positions, Yangzhou transfer makes Chen Zhenglin's official the largest; If you look any further, it's the Governor of Caoyun.
Jingtai was established in the second year, in charge of Cao Yun, and urged the southern provinces to transport grain to Beijing through the canal.
At the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, the Gyeonggi Capital Cao Yun Division was placed, and the Cao Yun envoy was set up, which was soon abolished.
During the Yongle period, the chief military officer of Caoyun was placed, and during the Xuande period, he sent Shilang, Du Yushi, Shaoqing and other officials to supervise Caoyun.
In the second year of Jingtai, he was appointed governor of Caoyun and governor of Feng, Yang, Lu and Huai, Xu, He, and Chuzhou, and stationed in Huai'an (now Jiangsu).
Later, there was a governor, and Jiajing was merged in 40 years, and it was changed to the governor Caoyun and the commander of military affairs.
Although Huai'an is not far from Yangzhou, after all, there is some distance, and the so-called far water cannot quench the thirst of the near, and if he wants to deal with Xu Xianchun, the governor of Caoyun is still not enough.
It seems that he is going to take the second way, and Xu Xianchun is going to completely turn his face.
can only go to Nanjing City to find the emperor and find a way to bring down Xu Xianchun in front of the emperor.
Han Qi went to Nanjing alone, which was naturally a little difficult. Someone from Yangzhou needs to cooperate with him.
Originally, Chen Tang, the prefect of Yangzhou, was the most suitable person, but that old guy was cunning and cunning, and I was afraid that he was unwilling to wade into the troubled waters this time.
Now that Chen Tangren is gone, it proves that Han Qi's guess is correct, so he wants to pull Chen Zhenglin down.
In Yangzhou City, the Han family is most involved, that is, Chen Zhenglin, the Yangzhou transfer envoy.
Han Qi believed that Chen Zhenglin was fine, as long as he found Chen Zhenglin, he couldn't ignore it. With Chen Zhenglin's plan and his own strength, there will definitely be no problem.
At this time, among the Jinyi Guard Yamen, Xu Xianchun continued to listen to the reports of his subordinates.
Xu Xianchun's face was very serious, and he looked at his subordinates who came not far away and asked, "How is it?" Does the Han family have a move? ”
"Back to my lord, there have already been movements. That Han Qi left the Han family and now went to the Yamen of the transfer envoy, probably to see Chen Zhenglin, the transfer envoy in Yangzhou. The subordinate hurriedly said.
"Then let's do it." Xu Xianchun stood up and said in a serious tone: "Go and arrest people." Han Qi was directly arrested in the yamen of the transfer envoy, and the others immediately started. ”
In addition, Qi Yuanfu was notified and asked him to take over the city defense of Yangzhou immediately. From now on, Yangzhou will immediately close the city, only allowing entering, not leaving. ”
"Let's finish our work, and then reopen Yangzhou City; Otherwise, don't open it. ”
"Yes, sir." The subordinate hurriedly agreed, turned around and walked out, and went to report the news.
After his subordinates left, Xu Xianchun glanced at Huang Changzong beside him and said, "Lord Huang, let's do it too." At this time, it can't be delayed any longer, otherwise the news will leak out. ”
"Alright, let's go." Huang Changzong said with a smile.
The two walked out of the Jinyi Guard Yamen together.
There were also a lot of brocade guards pouring out of the street, this time they were no longer wearing casual clothes, flying fish suits, embroidered spring knives to lead the team, and the momentum was very terrifying.
At this time, Han Qi also walked into the yamen of the transfer envoy and was directly picked up by Chen Zhenglin.
After the two met, Han Qi frowned.
Chen Zhenglin, who was high-spirited in the past, had a very ugly face at this time, and the whole person was depressed. This is not the state he should be.
"Lord Chen, what is this?" Han Qi saw Chen Zhenglin and asked suspiciously.
Chen Zhenglin glanced at Han Qi and said, "It's nothing, it's just that there have been some troublesome things recently, don't delay." Don't know what you're doing here? ”
"There's something I want Master Chen to help with." Han Qi didn't go around the bend, and directly told the matter.
In the end, Han Qi said: "Now it has reached the point where we have to move. Xu Xianchun was unscrupulous in Yangzhou City, and it was clear that he was targeting our Han family, so I had to fight back. If we let him make trouble, we won't have any good fruit to eat. ”
Chen Zhenglin glanced at Han Qi with a complicated expression, and finally sighed helplessly.
Of course, he knew that Xu Xianchun would not have good fruit to eat if he made trouble, but when people came, they didn't come to make trouble, they just came to catch people and bring down their own people.
Chen Zhenglin also knew that what Han Qi wanted could not be achieved at all.
This Han Qi still thinks of going to His Majesty, and still wants to be able to use the previous methods?
At this point, these are no longer necessary. After all, Xu Xianchun dared to do this, he himself definitely didn't have the courage, and the only one who could do this kind of thing was the current emperor.
Therefore, this is all done by the emperor today, and it is useless for you to resist.
Seeing that Chen Zhenglin didn't speak, Han Qi frowned, his face instantly became a little ugly, and his voice became deeper and lower. He said in a cold voice, "Could it be that Lord Chen is not willing to help?" Or is there something unspeakable about Lord Chen? ”
From the beginning to the present, it can be said that this matter is strange everywhere, if Han Qi is still not sure that there is something here, there is no need to mix it up.
Han Qi looked at Chen Zhenglin, hoping that Chen Zhenglin could give him an explanation.
"Let this official explain it to you."
At this time, a voice suddenly rang out.
Following the direction where the voice came, Chen Zhenglin looked over and found that it was a middle-aged man who came out, with a calm face, a smile on his face, wearing a flying fish suit and an embroidered spring knife around his waist.
At a glance, you can see that this dress is Jinyiwei, and this dress is much more delicate and luxurious, and you can know that it is the high-level of Jinyiwei at a glance.
"Han Gongzi, we have been friends for a long time." Xu Xianchun looked at Han Qi with a smile and said, "You may not know me, this official introduces himself, the commander of the Jinyi Weibei Town Fu Division - Xu Xianchun." ”
After hearing this name, Han Qi's pupils shrank.
Glancing at Chen Zhenglin again, Han Qi instantly realized in his heart and said, "It seems that Lord Chen has also been detained by you here, and those people are also in your hands, right?" ”
"Your brother's affair was framed by you, right? It seems to be aimed at our Han family, I don't know why you did this? ”
Xu Xianchun glanced at Han Qi and said, "Your brother's matter is a small matter, and what we want to talk about is a big matter." ”
"Originally, I heard that the Han family was lawless and unscrupulous in Yangzhou, but the official didn't believe it yet. It's a pity that the past few days have really opened the eyes of this official. ”
"The eunuchs guarding the town of Yangzhou, the prefect of Yangzhou, and the transfer envoy of Yangzhou really listen to you, and it is estimated that the governor of Caoyun also has something to do with you, right? Isn't it one of yours too? I wonder if you can come over with a hello? ”
