Linhuai Pass.

"Your Majesty is sick?"

Gu Xichou looked at Zhu Zhiyu suspiciously.

"It is said that there are some people who are not accustomed to the water and soil, and for some reason, Lu Zhuangsheng was also angry with His Majesty and was imprisoned, and when I went to see His Majesty, I saw that His Majesty's mood was a little angry."

Zhu Zhiyu said.

He had just arrived from Huoqiu.

In fact, it was after Ding Qixiang and the others left Huoqiu, but he took the highway, and there was a post station to change horses in a carriage, which was faster than Yan Wu, who zigzagged down the Huai River. In addition to the volume and cost, at this time, with the construction of new highways, the speed of four-wheeled carriages exceeded that of water transportation, such as from Fengyang to Pukou, and the passenger transport of changing horses and relays at the post station only took 24 hours.

Of course, it has to be when the weather is nice.

However, the new national highway and the passenger transport system of post stations and four-wheeled carriages did greatly speed up the transportation of people.

The future will be even faster.

Because the vast majority of horses at this time are still Mongolian horses, with the introduction and promotion of more large horses, especially the giant horse horse like the Shire horse, even the limit speed of more than 300 kilometers in 24 hours in Europe is completely possible, after all, the national highway of the Ming Dynasty is beyond Europe at this time.

"Anger is inevitable!"

Gu Xichou looked at the surging Huai River in front of him and sighed.

It's no wonder if you're not angry!

was raised by people as Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty, a young man in his early twenties, it would be hellish if he could still be emotionally stable, but anger is anger, as long as he can endure it, even if he can't help it, he has to endure it. Something like this can only wait for the opportunity, as long as the emperor doesn't make mistakes, Yang Qing can't find an excuse, even for the sake of his own image, he won't go too far, at least on the surface, he will maintain his politeness to the emperor.

I'm afraid that the emperor will be impulsive.

"Sometimes I think that if it can last for a long time like this, it may not be a bad thing!"

Zhu Zhiyu said.

Although this area is no longer comparable to the south of the Yangtze River, the irrigation system of excavation and dredging still ensures a good harvest here. In particular, the abundant cultivation of corn and the use of guano manure are bringing about a bumper harvest in this land, at least compared to the past. Rice, corn, sweet potatoes are all being harvested, and even in the barren sandy soil, sorghum is contributing valuable food. In the middle of this piece of farmland of different colors, the Huai River flows eastward, the Linhuai pontoon bridge crosses the river, the wharf thousands of sails gather, and there are constantly horse-drawn carriages galloping on the newly built highway.

And the stone-paved road, like a gray ribbon, stretched beneath their feet, and the small pine trees on both sides remained green.

And so it keeps going.

Across the Huai River, it seems to stretch endlessly in the fields on the north bank, in fact, it will extend all the way to Zhengzhou, but it will take two years to complete, but only the completed section has already shown its power. With the help of this national highway, the water and land transportation hub of the capital has truly become a place where business travelers from all over the world converge, and the prosperity is far greater than in the past, and only a few years ago, it was still a ruin destroyed by the war, and even the imperial tomb of the central capital was burned by Zhang Xianzhong.

It was Yang Qing who brought everything in front of him.

He brought everything, artificially bred corn, guano manure, national highways, and even four-wheeled carriages galloping on national highways.

So why do you have to fight him?

Especially with no hope of victory in sight.

"I'm old, and I've fulfilled my responsibilities, but I am worthy of the emperor!"

Gu Xichou said.

He actually didn't mix it up a long time ago.

Now as the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, he is fulfilling his duty to prepare for the emperor's ancestors, which is his duty, but he is no longer involved in this matter. Speaking of which, after fighting for so many years and looking at the more and more prosperous countries, he and Zhang Guowei are becoming more and more confused and losing their fighting spirit. Really, they're all starting to wonder what their goals are. For the country? This country is very good at the moment! For selfishness? They are all powerful, powerful, famous, and profitable! For the sake of righteousness? But if you really want to say it, it seems that Yang Qing is more popular with all the people!

So why are they?

Now the one who is really indomitable is Qian Qianyi, and even Qu Shiyun is a little less energetic after the emperor returns.

After all, there are those young people around the emperor!

These old men really don't feel close to the emperor, but they feel closer to Yang Qing, an old opponent.

At this moment, suddenly there was a commotion on the dock in front of them, and when they looked at the same time, they saw a boat that had just landed, and a group of people pushed two kidnapped people out......

"Ding Shan is coming?"

Zhu Zhiyu exclaimed.

Gu Xichou immediately turned his gaze to him.

"Ding Guangsan's nephew, he has been following Ding Guangsan before, but he hasn't seen him for two months, it is said that something has left Huoqiu, Ding Guangsan and Mao Dake have a lot of conspiracies during this time, they are all avoiding us people, and Mu Zhaigong is also involved, but there is no way to know what he is doing."

Zhu Zhiyu said.

At this time, an official on the dock came galloping on a horse, and Gu Xichou immediately stopped him.

"What's going on up ahead?"

Gu Xichou asked.

"Back to Shangshu, when several merchants of the Qin Domain left Huoqiu, they found that the buyer of the trading company they met on the road and had been traveling with them was a spy sent by Jiannu, so they arrested them and came to ask for credit."

The official said.

"It can't be mistaken, right?"

Zhu Zhiyu said with a hint of fantasy.

"There will be no mistake, one of them has already confessed on the way, he is a Jinshi of Jiannu, a native of Dacheng in Shuntianfu, and his father is still the former governor of Sichuan on the traitor record!"

The official said excitedly.

Zhu Zhiyu was struck by lightning in an instant, and stood there looking at Ding Qixiang and Liu Nan.

Gu Xichou waved his hand to let the official leave.

Zhu Zhiyu suddenly came to his senses and turned around to leave, but was grabbed by Gu Xichou, and he turned his head blankly......

"Where do you want to go?"

Gu Xichou said.

"Go to Huoqiu, I want to ask Mao Dake what they did!"

Zhu Zhiyu said angrily.

Gu Xichou looked at him with embarrassment.

"Don't go, listen to the old man, just act as if you haven't seen anything, we have done everything we can for him, we are already worthy of the first emperor and the Zhu family, but we are not his nanny, we can't control what he wants to do, we can already have a clear conscience, and the rest depends on his life!"

Gu Xichou said.

Zhu Zhiyu is not a fool, he is also at the level of the future emperor of the Japanese Kingdom, of course he understands that it is too late to do anything at this time, since Ding Qixiang and Liu Yu were only discovered after leaving Huo Qiu, then they must have met with the emperor, and it is even possible to reach some kind of secret agreement. If the emperor gave them something written, then this thing would definitely be found out and fall into the hands of Yang Qing, even if they didn't give them something written, just the emperor's private meeting with the envoy of the slave was enough. What Yang Qing lacks is such a crime, what he lacks is a theoretical basis for abolishing the emperor, and now, Ding Kuichu and these guys gave him the knife themselves.

"It's really like Yang Qing said, it's all a group of pig teammates!"

He smiled wryly and sighed.

Gu Xichou didn't answer him, but turned his gaze not far away, where Chen Yutai, the deputy head of the Yingjia Club, who was also waiting here for a batch of materials for the repair of the imperial tomb, was hurriedly getting into the carriage. This Chongzhen's four-year champion was dismissed after only two years as an official, and he has been at home since then, and this time he is extremely enthusiastic about Yingjia, and it is obvious that he also understands what it means for these two Jiannu to be close together.

But he made another choice.

Next to him was his nephew, Chen Zhenhui, one of the four sons of the famous Fushe Society, who looked at Gu Xichou and the others suspiciously, but didn't say anything after all, and then went straight to Fengyang with his uncle.

Just as their figures disappeared from the field of vision of Gu Xichou and the others, a prisoner car also appeared in their field of vision, galloping under the escort of the soldiers of the Fengyang Town Guard, and quickly drove past them and stopped on the dock. Ding Qixiang and the others, who had been exhibiting in the spurning for a long time, were then stuffed into the prisoner car, and then began to return to Fengyang City in the spit. When passing by Gu Xichou and the others, Ding Qixiang was emotionally muttering to them, but he had a special wooden ball stuffed in his mouth, and all he could do was hum.

"This brother, please stay!"

Gu Xichou said to Yan Wu, who followed triumphantly.

"Punch and pinch?"

Yan Wu said very politely.

"Bold, this is Gu Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites!"

An officer rebuked.

"Hungry knows that he is a scholar, and he is not a wood see!"

Yan Wu said.

Gu Xichou really couldn't remember if he had seen this guy when he was in Chang'an, but this kind of trivial matter was not worth mentioning, he motioned to the officer not to disturb, and then asked: "Where is this brother, how did you catch the two spies, and what did you find on them?" ”

"Hungry met them in Wuguan, they said that they were members of the Puzhou Trading Company, Hungry believed them, one piece from Wuguan to Huoqiu, they were picked up by another person in Huoqiu. I thought it would be so separated, who knew that they came back to find Hungry, saying that they were going to Yangzhou together, and after going out of the city, they were talking secretly, and they were overheard by Hungry, and they knew that it was the envoy of the two Jiannu. Hungry caught them and beat them, this surnamed Liu said his true identity, and he also took them to see King Chuang, saying that he wanted to conspire with him. Hungry men, how can they be in the company of these slaves, just arrest them and report to the officials, what hunger is on them has not been carefully searched, people and luggage are here! ”

Yan Wu proudly recounted his glorious deeds, and a bunch of people watching the excitement next to him kept applauding, and Ding Qixiang sighed sadly and angrily.

Gu Xichou didn't ask more.

Immediately after the prisoner car started again, Yan Wu followed behind, and continued to describe his glorious deeds to the onlookers on both sides in his Shaanxi accent, and then in the eyes of more and more onlookers, Ding Qixiang and Liu Nan headed towards Fengyang......

In the morning, I accompanied my mother to the hospital for a check-up
