More than 50 people, each with a knife in their hand, quickly jumped off the boat as soon as they landed on the shore and rushed to the front of the restaurant.

These people are violent, fierce, with broad shoulders and round waists, and their eyes are full of evil spirits, obviously not doing such a thing in a day or two.

"Tell your shopkeeper to come out!"

The leader was a sturdy man, with an oblique scar at the corner of his eye, looking extremely hideous, brandishing a long knife, and snorting coldly at Cao Bianjiao.

"Come out, come out!"

A crowd of people brandished swords and shouted, deafening. Echoing around the tavern.

After a while, many people not far away opened the windows and looked at them from a distance, wondering who the new owner of this restaurant was, and they were so powerful.

As soon as his voice fell, Cao Bianjiao waved his hand violently and said, "Hit, and then throw it into the river!" ”

The sturdy man's face changed slightly, and he said coldly: "Toast without eating and punishing wine!" Come on, burn this restaurant for me! ”

As soon as the man finished speaking, a few torches appeared, and he was about to throw them at the restaurant where Zhu Xu was.

Puff puff

Suddenly, short arrows shot out, piercing the men's arms.

"Ahh......h

The guards didn't give them a chance at all, and more than thirty people rushed out, and they drove them to the river, and then threw them into the river one by one.

The forbidden army seems to have been angered by repeated troubles, and the attacks are relatively heavy, and a group of people can only flutter in the water with difficulty, and they don't have the strength to say a word.

Zhu Xu came out of the crowd, stood on the bank of the river, watched nearly a hundred people splashing in the water, squinted, and said with a look of interest: "Inform Fang Kongzhi, Fu Zonglong, don't interfere, let this group of people toss." Pack up, let's go to the Tiger Army camp. ”

Cao Huachun stood behind Zhu Xu with a puzzled expression, at this time, shouldn't the emperor close the net and clean Nanzhili again?

Zhu Xu didn't explain much, and had already turned around and left.

Soon, Zhu Xu's group of people packed up, several large carriages, and dozens of cavalry escorts, crossed the Qinhuai River, and went south along the main road.

Such a formation is naturally extremely dazzling at this time, and the people who are staring at every move of the entire Ying Tianfu are aware of it, and they all have solemn expressions, and they can't guess the way out.

Not long after, the governor's yamen and the governor's yamen both received Zhu Xu's will, and then the two leaders quickly met.

The two sat opposite each other, frowning and unable to speak for a long time.

"Your Majesty...... I'm afraid it's already time coming. Fang Kongzhi looked up at Fu Zonglong and said solemnly.

Fu Zonglong's face remained unchanged and nodded, he also guessed this, the question is, how long has the emperor been in Yingtianfu? How many things have been discovered? What are you going to do? Why did you order them not to move, and let those people toss around?

The bad premonition kept surging in the hearts of the two.

Fang Kongzhi was worried that the emperor would repeat the incident of Beizhili, his face changed, and he looked at Fu Zonglong and said, "Governor Fu, if it is...... The emperor's methods are too drastic, can you and I jointly stop it? ”

The corners of Fu Zonglong's mouth moved, and he said with a wry smile: "Lord Fang doesn't know much about the emperor...... If he wants to make a move, you and I can't stop it even if we try our best, not to mention, you know who the chief soldier of the Tiger Ben Army is. ”

Cao Wenzhao!

Fang Kongzhi had this name in his heart, his brows twisted and twisted, and he felt uneasy.

Nan Zhili is too important to Daming, money and food account for most of it, and any injury is a huge injury to Daming.

"Master Fu, do you know anything about the emperor?" Fang Kongzhi was worried in his heart, looked at Fu Zonglong and asked. He was only involved in politics before, he had never been in Beijing, and he knew very little about Zhu Xu, and they were all messy rumors that were difficult to distinguish between true and false.

Fu Zonglong's expression was calm, and just as he was about to speak, the master bookkeeper walked in and said, "My lord, Lord Wang and many elders of Nanzhili are here." ”

Fang Kongzhi was stunned, glanced at Fu Zonglong, got up and walked outside.

I saw that there were already several people standing in the lobby, all of them in their seventies and eighties, and they looked like they were in their last years.

"I've seen Lord Fang, Master Fu." Wang Beicheng took the lead, and a group of people raised their hands.

Fang Kongzhi hurriedly returned the salute, these people are not only high-ranking officials of the previous dynasty, but also have a huge reputation in Nanzhili, within three generations, they either have a literary name or an official name, and they are illustrious.

Wang Beicheng was on crutches, with an indifferent smile on his old face, and said, "Lord Fang, I have invited all the people to you, don't let the old man down." ”

Fang Kongzhi looked at Wang Beicheng with a 'kind' look, his expression was unmoved, but he was vigilant in his heart.

Wang Beicheng's attitude was still very tough a few days ago, but now it has suddenly changed, and no one dares to be careless.

"We all support the new policy of the emperor and the imperial court!"

"I need to innovate, no matter what, we must support unconditionally!"

"There are some people with ulterior motives who fan the flames, and we will never agree!"

"That's right, we will use all our strength to support Lord Fang, the governor of the yamen, and will never allow anyone to provoke or disrupt the new policy!"

"Master Fang, if there is anything I need to do, just ask!"

A few old men trembled, but they landed with a sound and sonorous power.

Fu Zonglong's expression was suspicious, he watched coldly, and he understood the affairs of Nan Zhili, and there were only a handful of people who really supported the new policy of the imperial court, and now the number has exceeded one hand.

The master book was thoughtful, and whispered in Fang Kongzhi's ear; "My lord, no matter what, please go in first, and then let out the rumors, whether it's true or not, they can't repeat it!"

This can also be regarded as a help, Fang Kongzhi can bend and stretch, and immediately walked a few steps, and laughed loudly: "Ladies and gentlemen, please, let's talk in detail, come to serve tea......

Wang Beicheng nodded imperceptibly, as long as Fang Kongzhi needs him, then his Wang family can be saved.

Everyone else's minds are similar, they are old and sophisticated, they see through the world, and they all want to keep everything in their family.

Fang Kongzhi had just led people in, and before he could serve tea, the doorman came to report again: "My lord, Lord Xu has arrived." ”

Everyone present was already smiling, ready to be polite, and they were all stunned when they heard the words, and then they smiled more.

Fang Kongzhi was the most happy, and hurriedly said loudly: "Please, no, this official will personally go to greet ......"

Wang Beicheng already understands who this 'Lord Xu' is - Xu Jie, who was transferred by the cabinet secretary!

Although this is a transfer, who doesn't know that this is the 'Qin Mission' of the cabinet, and he has a heavy responsibility, who dares to despise it!?

When Xu Jie was brought in, he was stunned. Su Governor Yamen Yamen was a little too enthusiastic. The state also ate Sue several times. The state prefect's closed doors.

He was also accustomed to seeing the ups and downs of the Huan Sea, so he quickly found his way out of the door and stood quietly with Fang Kongzhi.

Xu Jie's arrival greatly increased Fang Kongzhi's confidence, and he sent Wang Beicheng and others away, and discussed the 'New Deal Plan' with Xu Jie behind closed doors, allowing the outside to make a fuss.

Now the most proud thing is the Hui Gang, seeing that the entire Shuntian Mansion has begun to be 'silent', as if he has seen the imperial court compromise and continue to let them occupy the salt government, or even go further.

The other merchants who were coerced by the salt merchants were all nervous and anxious at the moment, and they were all looking forward to it, if they could return to the Apocalypse year, it would be the best!

And like a hungry tiger, the Wu family, which was quietly hidden behind, was still quiet and terrible at the moment, silent, the door was closed, and no one entered or exited.

Zhu Xu's carriage drove directly into the river. In the camp of the Standing Army of the Soviet Union, a group of heads and brains are already waiting.

"Minister Cao Wenzhao (Wu Xiang, Yang Zhaoji) see my emperor, long live my emperor!"

As soon as Zhu Xu got out of the carriage, Cao Wenzhao, Wu Xiang, and Yang Zhaoji knelt on one knee and shouted loudly.

Zhu Xu looked down condescendingly, it was not three people, but also the generals of various departments, more than a dozen people, kneeling on the ground together. He smiled slightly, waved his hand, and said, "No courtesy." ”

"Emperor Xie!"

A group of people shouted, and then they all stood together, bowed slightly, bowed their heads, and waited for the emperor to speak.

In fact, none of them encountered this situation, and the emperor of the Ming Dynasty never went out of the palace.

Zhu Xu put his hands behind his back and looked at these people, all of whom were the mainstays of the Ming Dynasty, and they had not made him dissatisfied, so he said politely: "There is no need to be formal." Don't be like the adults out there, I'm not here to find trouble, just relax and be natural. ”

Everyone didn't move, but some people felt that the emperor was not as terrible as the legend said, at least the tone was very gentle.

Cao Wenzhao glanced at the two beside him, and in order not to be cold, he had to smile and say, "Your Majesty, you are all ready, why don't you take a look at the military exercise first?" ”

Zhu Xu smiled and said, "It's still your old Cao who understands me, well, I don't want to be polite, nonsense, what is there to put out directly, okay, let's take a look at the military exercise first." ”

Yang Zhaoji and Wu Xiang quietly looked at each other, secretly relieved, they had always been worried, for fear that the emperor would come to 'purge'.

Zhu Xu was surrounded and walked towards the middle of the camp, where there was a high watchtower.

Cao Wenzhao followed Zhu Xu's side, and eagerly introduced, "Your Majesty, Mountain. East, Zhejiang. Jiang and Jiang. The three armies of the Soviet Union have all been assembled, and nearly 100,000 troops have already practiced yesterday, and they can start military exercises at any time......"

Zhu Xu listened and bowed his head from time to time, looking around the camp. Concrete roads, cement pillars, concrete floors, cement creations everywhere, and the entrance looks like a fortress, quite impregnable.

"Hah!"

"Drink!"

Not far away, a group of soldiers brandished long knives and slashed at the dummy, each knife was neatly aligned, the movements were not stiff, and they were done in one go.

A few more steps, I saw a group of soldiers holding black iron guns and shooting at a target a hundred meters away.

When Zhu Xu saw it, he couldn't help but stop.

Cold weapons to hot weapons excessive, of which the 'gun' is a very important symbol, if you can design a relatively advanced musket, in this world, it is not as simple as occupying a small island, it can be completely horizontal!

However, soon Zhu Xu shook his head secretly, although many problems have been improved, he still does not have the ability to sweep in the field.

When Cao Wenzhao saw it, he hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, the range of this captive spear has been greatly increased, and it has a miraculous effect with artillery to defend the city and attack the city, especially the island." ”

Zhu Xu was stunned and said, "You said attacking the island?" ”

Cao Wenzhao said: "Yes, the ministers have taken turns to conduct military exercises, and they can destroy a fortress in half an hour at most!" Even if it is the mountains and seas on the sea, it will not last long. ”

Zhu Xu squinted, which was beyond his expectations, and he couldn't help but feel good, and said, "Okay, get ready, I will watch the military exercise first." ”

"Yes!" Cao Wenzhao was overjoyed. He's been preparing for a long time.
