When Chu Huan returned home from the guard camp, it was already dark, and when he met Gongsun Chu this time, the two didn't say much, Chu Huan was just appeased, and Gongsun Chu didn't say any words of gratitude.

Although it was proved that the letters were forged, before the Criminal Department did not withdraw the case file, Gongsun Chu was still a substitute for the crime and could not immediately become a free person, including the other thirteen officials, who were temporarily confined to the guard camp.

The guard camp is not far from the Governor's Palace, at this time, Xuanyuan Shengcai attaches great importance to Chu Huan's safety, and has always been guarding by his side, and no one can guarantee that some ill-intentioned people in Shuoquan will jump over the wall and do some assassination to Chu Huan.

Chu Huan returned to the house and went straight to the study, the seven surnames of Guanxi sent a large number of furniture, and they were very thoughtful, Chu Huan's study was also properly cleaned up, and when he arrived at the study, he roughly wrote about the turning point of Gongsun Chu's case, and felt that his chapter was still a little inappropriate, he was not good at this kind of official face chapter, official face chapter, it looked light and light, but he had to be careful with his words and sentences, and he could clearly express the meaning directly, and he had to turn around and say, and he also wanted people to see through the real intentions under those bells and whistles at a glance, Chu Huan is not good at this, so he asked Du Fugong to come over, after Du Fugong came over, he still seemed to have just woken up, and there were some bloodshots in his eyes, Chu Huan was not surprised, but said gently: "Disturb Mr. to rest, as Mr. expected, everything is going well, Gongsun Chu and others have been transferred to the guard camp, I am going to write a note, so that the Criminal Department will withdraw this case!" ”

Du Fugong sat down, Chu Huan had already handed over the manuscript he had written, Du Fugong glanced at it a few times, and then raised his head and said: "My lord, this recital, with a little polishing of the pen, can also be submitted, and the general meaning has been made clear." However, all the responsibility still has to be pushed on Ai Zong, whether it is us or Dong Shizhen, and they all push the responsibility to Ai Zong, which is the result that everyone likes to see. ”

Chu Huan sighed: "It's a pity that the foundation is not stable, and I can't take advantage of this matter, otherwise I will have to pull down a lot of people." ”

Du Fugong said with a smile: "Don't be anxious, don't worry, on the first day you came to Shuoquan, you not only saved a group of officials from Gongsun Chu, but also picked off a director of the Criminal Department. ”

Chu Huan nodded and said: "What Mr. said is that we haven't grasped it yet, whether it is military power or government affairs, their strength is much stronger than ours, if they are forced too quickly, it will not be good for us." ”

"Adults understand this truth, that is, they are very reasonable." Du Fugong said solemnly: "Today's incident is also to set an example for chickens and monkeys, give them a warning, let them understand that adults are not soft persimmons that they can pinch at will, and they should not dare to be too arrogant in doing things in the future." It's just that if you want to really gain a foothold in Xiguan, you still have a long way to go...... It is not an exagger......ation to say that there is a long way to go! ”

Chu Huan said with a straight face: "Everything needs more guidance from Mr. ”

Du Fugong waved his hand and smiled: "Your Excellency is polite, Du Mou is all some superficial knowledge, adults can use it, but they can't use it, don't miss a big thing because of Du." ”

Chu Huan sighed: "Mr. is too humble. Last night, if it wasn't for Mr. Zhuang's guidance, coming up with a clever plan to repay the other person's body, and even creating perjury, then today not only could Ai Zong be pulled off the horse, but Gongsun Chu's head had already landed. ”

Du Fugong smiled faintly, groaned slightly, and then said: "My lord, if you want to gain a foothold in Xiguan, you must at least have three must be removed, and you must have three must be collected!" ”

Chu Huan raised his eyebrows and arched his hand: "Sir, please advise!" ”

"These three must be removed, in fact, they are the three mountains that are now pressing on adults." Du Fu said fairly: "This must be removed, it is the rogue bandits in Xiguan, these people are very harmful, as long as they exist, the people will be panicked, it is difficult to produce with peace of mind, and the rogue bandits want to survive, the food and materials they need can only be looted everywhere, which is extremely destructive, this poison is not removed, don't say that the revival of Xiguan, I am afraid that when the Xiguan bandits become the future, it will also cause the disaster of Tianmen in the southeast, and the consequences are unimaginable." ”

Chu Huan clenched his fists and looked solemn, "Mr. is right, the rogue bandits, you have to get rid of them!" Looking at Du Fugong, he asked, "I don't know what Mr. said about the second division?" ”

Du Fugong stroked his beard and said: "If you want to revive Xiguan, exterminate the bandits, and resume production, you must give orders from above and down, the army will quell the chaos according to the will of the adults, and local officials at all levels will resume production according to the will of the adults...... But the adults have now seen that there is obviously a strong faction in Xiguan Road today, they are headed by Dongfang Xin, most of these people have followed Zhu Lingyue and made military exploits before being recommended by Zhu Lingyue to the imperial court, to put it bluntly, although Zhu Lingyue has returned to Tianshan Road, but his forces have not gone, up and down Xiguan Road, Zhu Lingyue's henchmen are numerous, we call these people Zhu Dang, adults think, Zhu Dang has Zhu Lingyue behind his back, will he obey the will of the adult? ”

Chu Huan's face was solemn before, but at this time, it was already covered with haze.

When he was in the capital, Du Fugong had expected that after Chu Huan arrived in the northwest, he would definitely be excluded, Du Fugong expected the local party in the northwest at that time, and now the facts have verified Du Fugong's prediction, not only the local party in the northwest, but also the group from outside the Tianshan Mountains, Dongfang Xin is because of the extremely large group strength behind him, this is arrogant, not even a mask, directly with Chu Huan-for-tat, in the bright face with Chu Huan to compete with Chu Huan.

Chu Huan is not afraid of this kind of fierce and rude person, but he cares more about the character who hides a knife in his smile, but Chu Huan cannot deny that Dongfang Xin not only has a huge Zhu Party behind him, but also has a heavy army, but he has the ability to be arrogant and domineering.

Seeing Chu Huan's gloomy face, Du Fugong smiled faintly and said: "The adults already have the answer in their hearts, Dongfang Xin dares to fight against the adults on the bright side, it can be seen that his arrogance in Xiguan, there is Zhu Lingyue behind him, and there are officials in Xiguan behind him, he has tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, he is by no means a good person, if the adults want to order and prohibit, I am afraid it will be even more difficult, if the Zhu Party's power in Xiguan is not removed, the adults will not have the possibility of being in charge alone." ”

Chu Huan said with a straight face: "What Mr. said is very true, although he won a game today, he did not shake their foundation in the slightest...... His brows were furrowed, but at this time, he felt more and more that his departure from Beijing in Xiguan could be said to be difficult and abnormal.

"In addition to the rogue bandits and the Zhu Party, there is also the last poison, adults should also be careful." Du Fugong stroked his beard, his eyes flickered, "Don't forget that Gao Lian, the president of the Chamber of Commerce!" ”

"Cheap?" Chu Huan leaned back in the chair, clasped his hands together, crossed his chest, and said calmly: "This is also a poisonous snake!" ”

"Adults should be able to see that the foreign gentry represented by Gao Lian are ambitious, and their purpose is very simple, to swallow the Xiguan Hao clan headed by the seven surnames of Xiguan and control the economic pulse of Xiguan." Du Fugong sighed: "Although in many people, businessmen are just unpopular characters who only seek profit, but everything in this world, without silver, it will not work, if you want to do great things, it is good to have ambitions, but without silver at hand, it can only be a fantasy." ”

Chu Huan said: "Gao Lian's group of people is obviously in cahoots with the Zhu Party, they can enter Xiguan, and Gao Lian can even become the president of the Chamber of Commerce, so they are naturally the Zhu Party's helpers." ”

"Exactly." Du Fugong's expression also became grim, "The government and businessmen join forces, the power is not trivial, Gao Lian they have silver in their hands, which can be supplied to the Zhu Party, and the silver can make the Zhu Party do many impossible things, just like the position of the president of the Chamber of Commerce, according to common sense, Gao Lian is a foreign gentry, and he can be called a no foundation in Xiguan, but he can become the president of the Yuezhou Chamber of Commerce under the operation of the Zhu Party, which has shown the power of their cooperation, and they supply silver money, and the Zhu Party uses the power of the hand to help the foreign gentry encroach on the Xiguan gentry, They use each other and benefit each other, and this combination of interests will make their relationship stronger and more powerful...... The adults went to the execution ground today, Du also talked to Mrs. Su for a while, and learned some about them, Gao Lian They not only bought a lot of land at a low price in Xiguan, but also in this Shuoquan City, the four cities add up to hundreds of shops, large and small, and they are also coerced and enticed with the help of the government, and they have acquired a lot of shops......! ”

Chu Huan frowned and said, "Coercion and temptation? ”

Du Fugong nodded: "Speaking of high prices, it has only been a few months since I came to Xiguan, but I have been crazy about buying land shops, and now in the city, I have purchased more than 20 shops at a low price...... Most of them were forcibly acquired by taking advantage of the prestige of the government. After a pause, his body leaned forward slightly, "Just ten days ago, the largest pharmacy in Xicheng was forcibly acquired by Gao Lian, although the shopkeeper was down, but he didn't want to buy the shop, Gao Lian took advantage of the relationship, and found a crime through Ai Zong, the director of the criminal department, and detained the owner of the pharmacy and sent him to prison. And the government is here to help him, and it is also a great benefit from them......! ”

Chu Huan's eyes were cold, his fists were clenched, he squeaked, and sneered: "Mr. said well, the rogue bandits must be suppressed, the Zhu Party must be eliminated, and Gao Lian, a gang of profiteers, will be killed!" ”
