Chapter 786: A visit to the Governor's Palace

(Everyone, if you have a vote, help vote, and smash the monthly ticket recommendation votes!) )

On the first day of October, the weather was sunny.

Taking advantage of today's good weather, Chen Xiaoting wanted to go to the Governor's Palace, because he had to communicate with Wu Guorui first to investigate the matter of the Tongwei.

In fact, Chen Xiaoting has always been curious about this well-known governor, after all, this can be called the mainstay of the Topaz family.

The carriage came to the outside of the governor's yamen, and after Chen Xiaoting came out of the curtain, he looked at the plaque of the entire yamen.

The soldiers on duty outside the governor's yamen saw Chen Xiaoting appear, and even if someone entered the yamen to make a report.

Although they didn't know Chen Xiaoting, they knew his official uniform.

The big red flying fish suit, that's a big man from the capital.

After getting out of the carriage, Chen Xiaoting walked towards the yamen, and the soldiers on duty stepped aside.

Recently, the Jinyi guards have made frequent moves in the city, and the domineering methods make people smell the color, so the soldiers present don't want to do much.

After entering the yamen, the officials who had already received the notice greeted him, and his expression was full of solemnity.

Even the people who were on an errand in the governor's yamen were as big as a fight in the face of the brocade guards.

After the official approached, he said respectfully: "I've seen Lord Chen!" ”

Chen Xiaoting's face was expressionless, and he said, "I'm here to see Governor Wu, you go and spread the word!" ”

The official bent his waist a little lower, and replied: "Back to my lordship, our Governor Wu is drinking the generals of the Jing'an Army to discuss matters, please wait a while, my lord!" ”

Before Chen Xiaoting could speak, Yang Kai, who was in charge of the guards, scolded: "If you tell you, hurry up, what are you doing with all this nonsense?" ”

I have to say that even if Yang Kai is just a general banner, it is enough to bring great pressure to this official.

However, at this time, I only heard Chen Xiaoting say coldly: "Stand down!" ”

Yang Kai, who was originally like a hungry wolf, closed his mouth and took two steps back, he is actually very good at doing things, much more clever than Niu Jingyun's kneeling and licking methods.

"Since Governor Wu is busy with military affairs, then the official will wait, there should be good tea in the Governor's Palace, right?" Chen Xiaoting said with a smile.

Hearing this, the official breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and only heard him say, "Yes, yes...... Adult please! ”

Afterwards, Chen Xiaoting went to the side hall with this official to serve tea.

…………

In the main hall of the back hall of the governor's yamen, Wu Guorui and the generals discussed the key points of the next step.

"Okay guys, according to the decision just now, you all go back to set up defenses!" Wu Guorui said calmly.

After the generals saluted Wu Guorui, they all walked out of the room, only Zheng Shaojun was still around the sand table to take a closer look.

At this time, an official from outside came in and said, "Your Excellency, Chen Yiwei of Jinyi has asked to see him, and now he is serving tea in the hall!" ”

Wu Guorui was stunned for a moment, he didn't understand Chen Xiaoting's intention to find him.

Tian Yuanxi's case has ended, and the wealthy families in Jiangnan have all paid their taxes and silver, and Wu Guorui really can't think of anything else.

People can't be seen, so Wu Guorui said in a deep voice: "Please invite him to the front hall!" ”

After the official left, Wu Guorui said to Zheng Shaojun on the side: "The old man will go to the front hall first, if you have something to do, go and get busy!" ”

To Wu Guorui's surprise, Zheng Shaojun wanted to go with him to see Chen Xiaoting.

"This person can also be regarded as a hero, how can he be seen in a humble position!" Zheng Shaojun said.

He can be regarded as a famous general in the world, and being so praised by him also shows Chen Xiaoting's strength.

"Okay, let's go meet together...... See what he wants to do! Wu Guorui said with a smile.

Immediately, the two of them walked to the front hall, and when the two of them sat down, Chen Xiaoting also appeared outside the door.

"Governor Wu is busy with military affairs, and Chen is disturbed!" As soon as he entered the door, Chen Xiaoting expressed his apologies.

This has brought a huge contrast to Wu Guorui, is this still the domineering Jinyi Wei affair? Gentleness and frugality, how can these qualities have anything to do with Jinyiwei?

Zheng Shaojun didn't think about it so much, the only thing he was surprised at the moment was that Chen Xiaoting was younger than he imagined.

Even if he has already sat in a high position, Zheng Shaojun's heart can't help but overflow with sour water, this is only a thousand households at such a young age.

Even if it has surpassed the vast majority of people, can the thousands of households of the Weisuo Army compare with the commander of the Jinyi Guard? There is no comparison at all!

"Chen is polite, please take a seat!" Wu Guorui was accommodating.

Although he is not a Zaifu now, he can definitely be called an important minister of the court, no worse than the various Shangshu of the court.

Coupled with years of ups and downs, Wu Guorui can see that everything can be handled naturally, and there are not many people who can make him solemn, and Chen Xiaoting is definitely not among them.

Because he knew this, Chen Xiaoting did not put on a score, but sat opposite Zheng Shaojun.

After a brief introduction, Wu Guorui asked: "I don't know if Chen Yan came over, what advice do you have?" ”

"I don't dare to teach you, I came here today to ask Lord Wu for a favor!" Chen Xiaoting said.

"As long as the old man can do it, Chen Yi will do it, but it doesn't matter!" Wu Guorui's face was as usual.

The mentality is stable, not in a hurry, the words are not leaky, everything is under control, this Governor Wu is really extraordinary...... Chen Xiaoting praised it in his heart.

"The Governor's Yamen has detained some Japanese bandit leaders, can these people be handed over to us?" Chen Xiaoting said in a deep voice, saying that he had to be meticulous when he got down to business.

"This ...... The widows who were arrested before were all cut down after the interrogation! Wu Guorui explained.

"The confession left by the interrogation can be copied for Chen Yanshi!"

Chen Xiaoting thanked him again and again, but he also knew that these confessions were useless.

So he continued: "There is a proposal below, and I ask Lord Wu to approve it!" ”

"Chen Yan, please speak!"

Chen Xiaoting expressed the intention of this trip: "If you catch the Japanese coward again, can you directly hand it over to Jinyiwei?" ”

After thinking for a while, Wu Guorui said, "Yes!" ”

The two easily negotiated things, and then began to chat, and Wu Guorui rarely praised people.

After chatting for a while, Chen Xiaoting said goodbye to Wu Guorui and left.

After he left, Zheng Shaojun said, "What does he want to do?" Are you going to dig up something, or are you going to send it to the capital to sacrifice prisoners to the emperor? ”

Both speculations are possible, but Zheng Shaojun is more inclined to the latter, after all, Chen Xiaoting's errand in Jiangnan has been completed, and now it is time to go back to hand in the errand.

"This person is inseparable from the Japanese in three sentences, I think he is going to investigate the person who colluded with the Japanese Kou!" Wu Guorui concluded.

Hearing this, Zheng Shaojun couldn't help but say: "He is in Jiangnan...... Having offended so many people, it would be bold to continue to investigate like this! ”

Although these words should not have come out of Zheng Shaojun's mouth, he still couldn't help but sigh.

After staying in the land of Jiangnan for so many years, although Zheng Shaojun has not investigated the case, he can also guess that there are inextricable links between the wealthy families in Jiangnan and the Japanese invaders.

Finally, now that the situation has stabilized and everything is developing in a good direction, is Chen Xiaoting going to ruin all this?

At this time, Wu Guorui said: "I don't think he is bold, but the emperor has this meaning!" ”

Let's just say that if it weren't for the emperor's great determination to suppress the opposition in the court, Chen Xiaoting would not have been able to do anything.

Now that things have been done, it seems like a good thing, but in fact it shows that the Ming Dynasty has reached the point of exhaustion.

Otherwise, how could the emperor be forced to be so determined to flip the table.
