On both sides of this wide bluestone street, the soldiers and yacha of the Songjiang Guard formed a human wall, blocking all the people and scholars from the crowd.

A man reached into his cuff and pulled it in, and suddenly, without warning, he bent down between the two yacha and was about to get in, already running into the middle of the road.

It's just that his body has just entered half of the body, but he was blocked by a quick-eyed and quick yacha, who couldn't help but push him back, and then the two yacha stepped forward to punch and kick this people.

The people did not know that the catastrophe was coming, but pointed to a lonely copper plate on the ground, and said in a hurry: "My copper plate, that is my copper plate." ”

As soon as the words fell, in the face of the punches and kicks of several officials like raindrops, he had no choice but to hold his head to protect the vital point, and bear this inexplicable social beating.

The head catcher of the Yangzhou Mansion came to find out the situation, and indifferently glanced at the people who were lying on the ground moaning, and ordered seriously: "Watch tightly, we must not let the incident of blocking the bridge and complaining happen!" ”

The soldiers of Yangzhou Wei and the officials of Yangzhou Mansion now seem to be clearing the road, which can be regarded as a means to protect Lin Haoran, but more importantly, they still follow the instructions from above to block some restless people outside, and do not want to see the incident of Yangzhou City blocking the sedan chair and reporting it again.

Regardless of the era, when local officials receive Shangguan, they usually want to show their best side, and they are like thieves against restless people.

It is precisely in this way that this human wall keeps the people out. Whenever the palanquin was about to arrive, they naturally asked the people to kneel, beware of any uneasiness.

Lin Haoran faintly heard some movement outside, and even guessed the intentions of these people, but he didn't interfere with it, but sat upright in the sedan chair with his eyes closed.

Although he acted and directed behind the scenes of Zhang Quan's sedan chair petition in Yangzhou City, these things are not known to the outside world, or local officials are inevitably weak-minded. In these days, almost everywhere he went, the local officials would be in this posture, and he was already familiar with it.

He is different from Hu Niu, he has never been a person who can't rub sand with his eyes, as long as these local officials don't go too far, he actually doesn't bother to pay attention. Especially if he wants to do more big things, then he must know how to grasp the big and let go of the small, and focus on the important things.

Now, he is going south to rectify the salt administration for this dynasty, and the court does not look at his ability to judge cases, but whether he can let the court get more salt taxes from Huaiyan.

It's never easy to do such a thing, especially to take the interests of many people. It is not only a practical approach, but also a practical approach that can be implemented in action.

In the past, many correct reform directions have often been the failure of one implementation, and he naturally has to go all out.

The name of a man, the shadow of a tree.

Although Lin Haoran sat quietly in the sedan chair, when he learned that the legendary Lin Wenkui suddenly visited Songjiang, it caused a wide range of onlookers in Songjiang Mansion, and both men, women and children cast awe-inspiring glances.

However, as the news of Lin Haoran's appearance in Songjiang City spread, several carrier pigeons were thrown from some courtyards and flew towards the outside of the city.

Lin Haoran went south to rectify the salt policy on behalf of the imperial court this time, but he was also a representative of the reformists of the Ming Dynasty, which has seriously affected the vital interests of Huaiyan's vested interests and unity. Even if it is a little wind and grass, it is always concerned by people with a heart.

Nanjing, the residence of the Duke of Wei.

As one of the founding fathers of the Ming Dynasty, although the Wei Mansion has experienced twists and turns, after the accumulation of so many generations of Guogong, its heritage has long surpassed many royal mansions.

In a courtyard, a variety of precious orchids are planted, especially in the small pavilion on the west side, where the most precious orchids are placed or suspended. Orchids bloom in all seasons, this time belongs to the last blooming time of Xia Lan, wisps of fragrance in the pavilion spread, so that the people in the pavilion are deeply intoxicated.

Xu Pengju was a young hereditary prince, and he is still full of gray hair. Although he lived up to his father's expectations and Yue Fei's words, his life was merry and happy.

"Ah, I've won again!"

A voice like a silver bell came out of the pavilion, and the joyful clapping of hands added a lot of youthful atmosphere. This girl's eyes are like a pool of lake water, and the skin that can be broken by blowing a bullet is extremely pitiful.

"It's not far away!"

Xu Pengju was happy when the girl was happy, but he suddenly threw the chess pieces in his hand, stood up without saying a word, and left the courtyard with a stinky face.

"Lang Jun, you ......"

The girl looked at Xu Pengju who left angrily and looked stunned, but after being stunned, she seemed to have a hint of epiphany, looking at Xu Pengju who suddenly turned his face.

This girl was the Yangzhou Oiran Yuji who sat on the throne and drank wine with a golden cup two months ago, but time passed, and she became the canary of the Wei Mansion, and was left out in the cold without warning.

"Sister Qiulan is probably like this, that's why I can't think of it!"

Yu Ji looked at the ruthless back, but a sneer appeared on her face and murmured.

Xu Pengju has already become romantic, although he is greedy for women, he looks down on women.

The move just now was not that he really wanted to abandon this Yangzhou Oiran, but that he was tired of Yuji's temperament. He wanted to use this deliberate snub to sharpen this woman's heart, let her understand what her identity was, and then change to a humble posture to get along with him.

This move is a bit ruthless, but it is tried and tested.

He left the courtyard with his hands in his hands, and was thinking about going to Zuichun Building to relax himself, but when he saw a henchman hurriedly coming from the corridor, he asked with a straight face: "What's the matter?" ”

"Back to my lord, I just got the latest news from Lin Haoran!" The henchman raised his eyes and saw Xu Pengju, and was immediately handed over by a small note.

When Xu Pengju heard the news that it was Lin Haoran, he immediately reached out and took the note and opened it to take a look, but he couldn't help frowning and said, "What did he want to do when he ran to Songjiang Mansion?" ”

"I heard that his wife Ru had a batch of goods robbed by Shui Kou in Wusong River, and this trip probably wanted to investigate the matter, so as to win a smile from the beauty!" The henchman replied with a smile.

Xu Pengju remembered the charming beauty, and nodded in agreement: "I see!" If I had such a beautiful woman, I would indeed love her so much, and I would stand out for her! ”
