Chapter 514: Meeting (2)
The dissemination of information in the world is inefficient and slow, and the population lacks sufficient mobility.
Don't look at the Jinling War, many of Chuzhou's intentions can be said to be directly frustrated by Han Qian's hands, and everyone up and down is eager to catch Han Qian's bones and ashes, but there are very few people in the entire Huaidong who have really fought with Han Qian and can recognize Han Qian's face.
Even if there were, they were almost all concentrated around Wang Jun.
In addition to wearing a patched old coat to hide his identity, Han Qian just didn't shave for a few days, his stubble was a little messy, and his face didn't change his face to disguise himself, so he walked upstairs and sat down calmly in front of the window.
On the second floor of the tea shop, there are three other people, who are the stewards of the Wang family in Jianyuan, as well as Wang Wenqian's two personal guards.
Wang Wenqian's two personal guards had served in the Chuzhou Pavilion with Yin Peng in his early years, and the steward of Jianyuan had rushed to Xuzhou with the boss Wang Jixiong to mourn Han Daoxun, and they naturally knew Han Qian.
In addition to these three people, there were several other people downstairs who followed at this time.
They looked stunned, they must have recognized Han Qian's face just now, but they didn't expect it to be Han Qian himself, so they didn't say anything, and they couldn't help but go upstairs to see if they were dazzled.
These people were precisely the maids beside Wang Jun and the four family soldiers who were guarding the front of the street and the tea shop just now, who were "captured" in Maoshan with Wang Jun at the beginning.
Seeing the strange atmosphere on the second floor of the tea shop, these people did not wait for training, and hurriedly shrank their heads and retreated, but the look on their faces was extremely rich, so rich that Wang Wenqian wanted to scold his mother when he saw it: This grandson is a killing star, and suddenly appeared in Yangzhou, for him Wang Wenqian, it is definitely a blessing in disguise, you grandsons, do you really think that it is his Wang Wenqian's aunt who came to recognize his relatives?
Wang Wenqian's face was gloomy, he glanced at Wang Jun beside him, and saw that Wang Jun was looking down at Han Qian secretly, confirming that she did not know about it beforehand, thinking that she was not so confused that it was okay to unite with outsiders to calculate her father, so she sat upright, stared at Han Qian and asked: "The Marquis of Qianyang is also the lord of Fanzhou now, and he left Zhenzhou without an edict, presumably the Marquis of Qianyang does not need to be reminded by Wang, and he knows very well what the crime is, right?" ”
"Xuzhou is poor and bad, it is a barren miasma, and it is annoying to live for a while, I secretly ran out to take a breath, and I still thought that I was an old friend with Lord Wang, and it must be okay to come over to ask for two glasses of water and wine, but I don't want to scare me with this matter just when I met Lord Wang, I really missaw Lord Wang." Han Qian said indifferently.
Han Qian said it easily, but Wang Wenqian had no way to be at ease.
Yin Peng stood in front of the window and did not sit back at the table, but after Yin Peng observed the window for a while, his expression became more and more solemn, and Wang Wenqian also knew very well in his heart that the vicinity of the tea shop should be under the control of the lurking people in Xuzhou at this moment.
They had more than a dozen guards and servants downstairs, and there was no way to spread the news in a short time, and they had no way to seize the initiative by transferring troops and horses from the nearby military camp.
This also shows that Han Qian planned for a lot of time for this meeting, and only then deliberately lured him to Zhuyu Bay in the name of a juggler in Guangde Mansion.
Han Qian has a clear purpose, but Wang Wenqian has to speculate about Han Qian's motives and intentions in a very short time, how can his expression and mood be relaxed?
Seeing that Wang Wenqian's expression was serious and unsmiling, Han Qian asked, "Do you want to ask unrelated people to leave, and allow me to catch up with Lord Wang." ”
"There is nothing irrelevant to the people, what does the Marquis of Qianyang have to say, but please speak," Wang Wenqian was so hateful that he invited all the people in the tea shop downstairs to come upstairs to watch, where was he willing to discuss something with Han Qian, some things were not cleared by the Qing people, and said, "And since the Marquis of Qianyang dares to show up in Huaidong, he will probably say anything, and he will not be afraid that Huaidong will sue His Majesty." ”
"That's right, whatever Huaidong says, His Majesty must be willing to believe it," Han Qian said with a smile, "Although the life of Xuzhou has not been very easy in the past year or so, when Li Zhihe successfully captures Chaozhou, it will be Huaidong's turn to live a hard life." By the way, I am also going to write to Your Majesty and give Your Majesty ideas, how to make Huaidong cocoon and bind himself - Lord Wang, are you interested in listening to it? ”
Wang Wenqian's face was cloudy and silent.
Han Qian asked: "His Royal Highness King Xin waved his army to retreat north, coerced tens of thousands of sons and daughters of the family and tens of thousands of slaves and maids to cross the river - Anning Palace plotted to kill the first emperor and usurp the throne, these people are really hateful and Anning Palace, His Royal Highness Xin Wang punished them, and they deserve it, but Your Majesty is generous and merciful, allowing them to make meritorious contributions in Huaidong, or forming an army to defeat the rebels or Liang Yu, I believe that His Royal Highness King Xin and Lord Wang can't stop it, right?" ”
Regardless of whether Wang Wenqian's face was ugly or not, Han Qian said to himself: "Tens of millions of people in Dachu, salt is tied to Huaidong, but 40,000 stove households are stealing and cheating, Your Majesty should use the system of the cantonment camp military government to make up stove households, which can not only prevent stove households from stealing and cheating, take one out of ten, but also make up three or four thousand elite salt soldiers to patrol the salt road, and use the flood of private salt and bandits. By the way, in order to facilitate this, I pondered a new set of salt drying methods in Xuzhou, which can eliminate some of the drawbacks of the current method of boiling salt, but it can only be implemented by organizing stove households on a larger scale in a more orderly manner. Once the new law is completed, it will increase the income of about 450,000 quintals of sea salt every year. Of course, to put an end to the part of the private salt that flows into Huaidong, at least it can add tens of thousands of tons of sea salt......"
“…… Chuzhou when the south of Hongzepu, the rebel sailor Yuli, from the Xiaota River, Shiliang River, Changjin River and other water can enter and exit the Yangtze River, threatening Jinling under the couch, at this time not the opportunity to take Shouzhou in the north, the forbidden army should gather heavy troops in Chuzhou, and then slowly plot to seize Shouzhou can also ......"
"What benefits can you get from doing this?" Wang Wenqian couldn't help but sneer.
"Shang Wensheng died in Donglu Mountain, Lord Wang is making a big deal behind the scenes, what benefits did he get?" Han Qian asked rhetorically.
"Qianyang Hou specially came to Yangzhou, it won't be a special trip to Xingshi to ask about the crime, right?" Wang Wenqian narrowed his eyes, stared at Han Qian and asked.
"I retreated to Xuzhou, saying that it has nothing to do with Guangde Mansion, but there are those who make waves, and there are even more people who add fuel to the fire like Lord Wang. And if Guangde Mansion really wants to cause a big turmoil, I don't know how many people will be killed and injured, and I don't know how many people will be displaced, I don't know how many people will blame me for these things. At the end of the day, no matter how clear I am, I am still a sinner of history-Lord Wang, I tell you the truth, I am also very troubled," Han Qian's tone seemed to be just to complain to Wang Wenqian, "So, I can only work hard, and I can only come over and beg Lord Wang to raise your hand in the future, and not to see the old headquarters of Zuo Guang's German army, so I excitedly added fuel to the fire and went to do something." Of course, Lord Wang may not be able to be the master, but please tell His Royal Highness King Xin that since I have worked tirelessly to make this trip, I still hope that His Royal Highness King Xin can give me some thin noodles! ”
Wang Wenqian stared at Han Qian uncertainly, and asked: "What does the Marquis of Qianyang mean is that the old department of the Zuo Guang German Army had nothing to do with the Marquis of Qianyang in the past, but from now on, the old department of the Zuo Guang German Army has nothing to do with the Marquis of Qianyang?" ”
"Since I can't get rid of the relationship by all means, I'm also very helpless, Lord Wang, don't you say?" Han Qian smiled and asked, "Besides, this matter can't be considered a bad thing for Huaidong, right?" ”
Wang Wenqian frowned slightly and said: "I know what Qianyang Hou said - apart from this, does Qianyang Hou have anything else to advise?" ”
"No," Han Qian clapped his hands and stood up, "It seems that I am not a person who is popular with Lord Wang, so I will not bother Lord Wang anymore - I will leave one person in Zhuyu Bay, and if His Royal Highness has any reply, just tell him through him." ”
The strange situation here may alarm the garrison south of Zhuyu Bay at any time, and no matter what decision Yang Yuanyan makes in the end, Wang Wenqian will find a way to detain him temporarily, so Han Qian can't stay here for too long.
After saying these words, Han Qian went downstairs and left with Xi Yi, Kong Xirong and others.
Wang Wenqian and Yin Peng stood in front of the window, and saw Han Qian, Xi Ying, and Kong Xirong walking into the inn opposite, and then saw a three-horse carriage galloping out of the backyard of the opposite inn, going in three directions, so that they couldn't see which carriage Han Qian was hiding in and left Zhuyu Bay.
On the long street, it was obvious that there were people and horses lurking in Xuzhou, and they also followed the three carriages, which fled in three directions.
"They must cross the ditch and flee to Chuzhou in the fastest time." Yin Peng gritted his teeth and said, it was obvious that he suggested sending someone to summon at this time, and deploy troops and horses to block the ditch as quickly as possible, and search for any suspicious-looking ships.
"Look at the other side." Wang Wenqian motioned to Yin Peng to look at the window on the second floor of the inn opposite, the corners of the windows were flickering with arrows in the sunset, it was obvious that Han Qian still left the people behind the palace, as long as they moved, these centaurs were likely to attack strongly, so as to create more time for Han Qian to escape.
"He played dumb riddles for a long time and left, what did he want to do?" Yin Peng asked hatefully, they only had a dozen or so people by their side, and they really didn't dare to act rashly.
"Uncle Yin, Han Qian seems to be hinting that the old department of Zuo Guangde's army will rely on Yangzhou to gain a foothold, and the imperial court has noticed that Zuo Guangde's old army is still acting on Han Qian's orders, and the suspicion of Huaidong will drop to Xuzhou again......" Wang Jun said softly, her eyes looked out of the window, she didn't know which carriage Han Qian was hiding in at this time, and then fled away, thinking that she had been to Zhuyu Bay for the past three days, but she couldn't say a word, and she didn't know how long he would stay in Chuzhou, and she didn't know if there was a chance to meet again......
