For two days in a row, except for Xing Shangzhi, Zhang You was closed to no guests, and the entire shipyard site was strictly guarded by Zhao Yongjie's command.

You can't go on like this, right? Seeing that the Chinese New Year is just a few days away, everyone has something to do, so they can't accompany Zhang You here.

Therefore, a group of high-ranking officials discussed, and rushed to the shipyard construction site early in the morning of the third day, so the place was spacious, otherwise the big official sedan chair lined up really couldn't be placed.

Xu Dengying was also among the group, he was Zhang You's direct subordinate, there was no reason to retreat at this juncture, seeing a large group of people gathered at the door of the wooden fence and not allowed to enter, he took the initiative to stand up and shouted to the gatekeeper: "Don't you see that so many of us are waiting to see Master Zhang?" Hurry up and go in and say goodbye, don't think it's great to follow Lord Zhang now, we may not be able to provoke Lord Zhang, but just a word can make you roll up and get out! ”

"That's right, hurry up and go in and tell Zhang Zicheng that we have to see him today no matter what!" Nanjing Hubu Shangshu Yang Wei said with a cold face, this duke was born in the twelfth year of Zhengde (1517), once served as the left waiter of the Beijing Division, in the early years of Wanli, there was a Wang minister trespass on the forbidden palace incident, the case was tried by him, in the process of disobeying Zhang Juzheng and Feng Bao's instructions, it was regarded as offending the two, and took the initiative to write a letter to implore Zhishi, go home to serve the old mother, until this year Zhang Juzheng retired, which was restored to Nanjing Hubu Shangshu.

The Ming Dynasty also set up six ministries in Nanjing, and there has always been an erroneous view that the six ministries in Nanjing were all nominal jurisdictions with no actual powers, for ministers to retire or to provide a place for ministers who were demoted and excluded.

In fact, this view is biased, although the power of the Nanjing Sixth Department is far less than that of the Beijing Sixth Department, but the Nanjing Sixth Department also has certain powers.

The main reason is that the Nanzhili region, where Nanjing is located, has jurisdiction over 15 prefectures and three Zhili prefectures, which is equivalent to the two provinces of Jiangsu and Anhui today, but there are no three divisions, namely, the administrative department, the judicial department, and the capital command department.

Nanjing's household department is responsible for collecting taxes and grains from Nanzhili and Zhejiang, Jiangxi, and Huguang provinces (the taxes and grains paid in these four places account for almost half of the Ming Empire), and is also responsible for Caoyun and the national salt introduction survey (from beginning to end of the Ming Dynasty, the Nanjing household department has been responsible for this matter, of which only 2 years Nanjing household department is not responsible for this affairs: in the third year of Zhengde, Liu Jin changed the law, and the central household department was responsible for it, "Nanjing introduction plate, all ordered to be destroyed", but in the fifth year of Zhengde, Liu Jin was sentenced to the household department to ask "brush the salt introduction, still under the Nanjing household department", which was approved. Since then, it has remained unchanged) and the collection and management of the National Yellow Book.

This is the reason why Yang Wei dared to call Zhang You by his name, in a word, whether it is qualifications or rights, he is not afraid of Zhang You - even Lao Tzu dares to offend, let alone his son.

As soon as Yang Wei's voice fell, Wang Xun, the secretary of the Ministry of War, also said: "Yes, tell Master Zhang that he has been dragging us for two days, and no matter what happens today, even if it is a hard break, we must see him." ”

The Nanjing Military Department is responsible for the garrison of the Nanjing area, and the 49 guards in the Nanjing area are all under the command of Shangshu of the Nanjing Military Department - of course, it really comes to the point where it is necessary to mobilize troops, and he does not count it alone, at least it must be garrisoned, or the garrison eunuch can be ordered together. Even so, no one dared to ignore his words, especially those who were soldiers.

I finally couldn't hold it anymore, sued for a crime, and hurried in to pass it.

"It's so unbelievable, poking out such a big basket, I can't even see a figure."

"What's the use of saying that? Who makes the family a long-lived celebrity......"

"Long live the red man can't do it, something so big happened, did he think he could just hide? Let's say okay, if he doesn't see us later, we'll break in. ”

…… The officials whispered against Zhang You, and at the same time discussed countermeasures, and the guards next to him secretly pinched a cold sweat for Zhang You - so many officials in scarlet robes, on the ground in Jiangnan, one is terrible on weekdays, Lord Zhang is good, if you don't see it, you won't see it, it's really a newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers.

I don't know how long it took, but anyway, some officials began to get impatient, and the general manager who had just gone in to pass finally trotted in front of the adults.

"How?" Someone rushed to ask.

The general took a breath, blushed and said: "Lord Zhang said, now I don't see you, let you ......"

"What do you say? What does it mean to not see now, and when to see now? Yang Wei unceremoniously interrupted the boss, the goatee was cocked high, obviously angry.

Wang Xun waved his hand, and he was going to break in first.

The general was sweating profusely, holding his arms open, his mouth kept stopping, and he said eagerly: "Don't worry, old men, can you listen to the humble post and finish speaking?" Master Zhang said, interrogate Chen Hu and Wang Hua tonight, and invite all of you to come and observe, and it's not too late for you to ask any questions you have at that time......

"Why the time? What kind of prisoners are you trying in the middle of the night? Someone interrupted in confusion, and everyone's excitement was finally relieved, but it was replaced by curiosity, and the scarlet robes looked at each other, and they really couldn't figure out what kind of medicine was sold in Zhang You's gourd.

Everyone's eyes were focused on the general manager, and the general was very uneasy, and said: "This, the lowly position is not very clear, but since Lord Zhang chose to interrogate at that time, I think there must be a deep meaning, but unfortunately he didn't say it, the lowly and stupid, I really can't guess his intentions." ”

"Forget everyone, I guess I can't ask him why, since Lord Zhang said that he would see us at night, he won't break his promise, according to his own official, it's better to wait for another day, if he finds another rut in the evening, let's not be too late." Xu Dengying said.

Two-faced, many people slandered in their hearts, but it was not unreasonable to ponder what he said, so people no longer pressed the president, and looked at Wang Chengxun, who had not spoken.

Wang Chengxun looked at Yang Wei, hesitated for a moment and said: "It's up to Lord Xu, Zhang Zicheng is also the commander of the dignified Zhengsanpin Jinyi Guard, so he must not be untrustworthy, right?" ”

He was the most powerful person among the officials present, even if some people looked down on him in their hearts, but on the surface, they thought he was the first to look at him, he said so, everyone naturally stopped talking nonsense, gave each other hands, got on the sedan chair, and dispersed after a short time.

Wang Chengxun called Xu Bin to his sedan chair, and as soon as he sat down, he frowned and asked: "Wen Hui, your brain is spinning fast, tell me, what is the purpose of Zhang You's move?" ”
