Chapter 402: A Delaying Tactic

When Zhang Maoxiu opened his eyes again, he found himself in a strange woman's bed.

What surprised him even more was that he and this woman were naked, and they were really 'honest and sincere'.

Zhang Maoxiu pinched his thigh hard, and the sharp pain reminded him that this was not a dream.

Oh my God, what the hell is going on?

Zhang Maoxiu almost shouted, but reason told him that he had to calm down.

From this woman's mouth, Zhang Maoxiu learned that he was in Lichun Yuan, a famous brothel in the city of Guangzhou.

He couldn't help but take a deep breath.

The Zhang family's style is extremely strict, if the children of the Zhang family are found to be stained with flowers and grass, haunted the green building, even if they are not disabled, they will not be able to get out of bed for ten days and a half months.

Zhang Maoxiu naturally received this kind of education since he was a child. Therefore, it is impossible for him to take the initiative to go to the Qinglou to seek fun. But now he did appear in Lichun Courtyard, and he was naked.

So what's really going on?

Zhang Maoxiu desperately recalled, and found that the only thing he could remember was eating wine with Lu Zhiqian, the prefect of Guangzhou, in the restaurant. Lu Zhiqian tried his best to persuade him to drink, he was drunk, and then he didn't remember anything.

Could it be......

Hiss!

It must be Lu Zhiqian's ghost!

Although Zhang Maoxiu is very young and has not experienced any dirty things, he can be familiar with Zhang Juzheng and understand some dark things in officialdom.

He is now the governor of Guangzhou Province and the official of the Inspectorate, so he and the Guangzhou prefect are standing on the opposite side of nature.

In addition, he is now checking the account books of Guangzhou Mansion, it must be this Lu Zhiqian who is a thief and has a weak heart to come up with such a shameless method.

Now Zhang Maoxiu has basically decided that it was Lu Zhiqian's hands and feet. As for the other party's purpose in doing this, it is also obvious, that is, to threaten Zhang Maoxiu. After all, the Ming Law clearly stipulates that officials are not allowed to engage in prostitution.

Especially if Zhang Maoxiu is still a picket official, if he is found to be a prostitute, wouldn't he know the law and break the law, and the crime will be added to the first degree?

What a cruel mind!

Zhang Maoxiu's mind was full of angry expressions from his father, relatives and friends after knowing about this incident at the moment. If this really became known to everyone, his reputation would be ruined.

But when you think about it, it seems that there is a turning point.

After all, the other party didn't want to break the net, otherwise Lu Zhiqian would have sent someone to rush in and catch him a "current".

Lu Zhiqian did such a game but was not in a hurry to make a move, in fact, he was sending a signal to Zhang Maoxiu, that is, you have a handle in my hands, don't be too arrogant.

And Zhang Maoxiu's current decision will directly affect Lu Zhiqian's choice. As long as Zhang Maoxiu expresses his desire to sit down and cooperate, then Lu Zhiqian will definitely be happy to rot everything he knows in his stomach.

On the contrary, if Zhang Maoxiu still investigates with his head bored, then the matter of Zhang Yushi's haunting of Qinglou will definitely be hyped up and become the talk of officialdom bigwigs after dinner.

Zhang Maoxiu knew that if he wanted to attack an official in the Ming Dynasty, he would often start with his style of life. Even if there is no problem with his style of life, he will forcibly create problems. Because no one would believe that an official with a problematic lifestyle would be a good and honest official. Naturally, what he said was not credible.

Zhang Maoxiu closed his eyes and thought about what to do next.

There is no doubt that Lu Zhiqian will definitely closely observe his movements. As long as he shows the slightest reluctance to cooperate, then he will shake out the fierce materials prepared in advance. Even if you don't catch it, there must be a lot of people in this Lichun Courtyard who can prove that Zhang Yushi did appear. Then Zhang Maoxiu is speechless.

The only thing that can be done now seems to be to show a cooperative attitude, at least to hold Lu Zhiqian for the time being.

Zhang Maoxiu sighed in his heart and began to get dressed.

As Zhang Maoxiu expected, the prostitute did not stop him. It seems that Lu Zhiqian has been arranged properly and is confident.

Zhang Maoxiu dressed up and left Lichun Courtyard alone.

When he came out of the gate of Lichun Temple, he looked left and right, for fear of being seen.

After returning to the procuratorate, Zhang Maoxiu made some careful planning and decided to leave Guangzhou Fucheng immediately and go to Xiangshan County.

If he continued to stay in the capital city of Guangzhou, then Lu Zhiqian would mumble in his heart. Simply Zhang Maoxiu left Fucheng directly, so that Lu Zhiqian could understand his attitude.

Now is the time when things need to be downplayed the most. Over time, the impact of this event will fade. A few months later, Lu Zhiqian is really going to make a difficulty, and it is estimated that not many people will believe it, right?

After thinking about it, Zhang Maoxiu immediately told the coachman to prepare the carriage and he would go to Xiangshan County immediately.

There is no doubt that Lu Zhiqian got the news for the first time.

It was the best news he'd heard in a month. For this reason, Lu Zhiqian can't wait to celebrate with a crown.

Zhang Maoxiu, Zhang Maoxiu, there are really things you are afraid of. He was now eager to send Zhang Maoxiu, the plague god, away immediately. As long as Zhang Maoxiu leaves Fucheng and doesn't come to him for trouble with Lu Zhiqian, then he can check as much as he likes.

However, after all, Zhang Maoxiu is patrolling the imperial history, and no matter how happy Lu Zhiqian is, he can't show it.

He immediately summoned all the officials of the Guangzhou Prefecture to see Zhang Maoxiu off outside the procuratorate.

Zhang Maoxiu saw this Guangzhou prefect who wanted to kill him again, and he sneered in his heart.

Okay, let's let you be proud for two days for the time being, and then I'll accompany you after I've done a delaying strategy and is thoughtful!

Under the farewell of the officials of the Guangzhou government, Zhang Maoxiu's carriage officially left the procuratorate and left the city.

All officials, including Lu Zhiqian, breathed a sigh of relief. Zhang Maoxiu should not come back after leaving, right?

......

......

"My lord, Lord Yushi is about to go to the county seat. Do you think you are calling all the adults out of the city to greet you? ”

A pro-soldier rushed to Ning Xiu to report with his fists hugged.

"Oh?"

Zhang Maoxiu is almost in Xiangshan County? Wasn't he still in Fucheng some time ago?

Although Ning Xiu wanted to get together with Zhang Maoxiu, he was also curious about why he suddenly left Fucheng.

However, now is obviously not the time to be curious, according to the rules of the Ming officialdom, there are inspectors who come to the city to greet them in order to show respect. After all, the patrol of the imperial history is to inspect the place instead of the Son of Heaven, which is equivalent to half a Qincha.

Ning Xiu bowed slightly: "In this case, you should go and inform the officials of the county, quickly gather in front of the county office, and go out of the city with the official to meet Zhang Yushi." ”

"Yes!"

The soldier clenched his fists and took the order. Ning Xiu sighed in his heart, after being separated from Zhang Maoxiu for many days, he really had something to say.
