The position of the eunuch of the town guard, which began in the Hongxi period of the Ming Dynasty, was originally to supervise the border army, which was equivalent to the supervision of the army. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 But then it was extended to the local government, and he became a person who could meddle in local political affairs, and was only responsible to the Son of Heaven or the celebrant and supervisor, almost like a resident Qincha. Although this maladministration was abolished for a while in the early years of Jiajing, it has since revived, and now there are eunuchs everywhere.

This father-in-law An Li'an is the eunuch of Hangzhou, and his errand is mainly responsible for local business taxes, porcelain, silk, tea, etc. tribute and foreign trade are the most expensive business, but looking at his size, he is not as fat as Shen Zhuo, a brocade guard. Of course, as a eunuch, whether he has other responsibilities or not, it is not up to Tang Feng and them to know.

"I've seen Grandpa An." Since the thousands of adults were so respectful, Yang Zhen and the others naturally couldn't sit upright safely, so they also got up one after another to salute.

An Li smiled and looked like a corporal of Lixian: "You're welcome, sit down." We just happened to come to the outer building of this building, and I heard that it was Shen Qianhu who was holding a banquet here, so I was uninvited to see what kind of guest could make him break the bill. It turned out to be a few of you who made a name for themselves in Huguang. As he spoke, he had already sat in the first place, but An Li didn't seem to mind at all, but smiled even more happily.

Yang Zhen and Tang Feng exchanged glances, and they both saw four words in each other's eyes-want to cover up.

What happened to be here is just a pretext, and this father-in-law is clearly coming for himself and others. As for the reason, I'm afraid it has something to do with what he just said about Huguang.

After putting another pair of chopsticks in the building and toasting An Li with a few glasses of wine, Shen Zhuo said seemingly unintentionally: "Father-in-law came at the right time, originally the lower officials thought that they would go to see their father-in-law after the New Year." ”

"Oh? But for what? ”

"Ahem, don't you hope that your father-in-law can reward these brothers with a mouthful of food. Who of us in Hangzhou doesn't know, as long as my father-in-law is willing to nod, we people will not have to worry about eating and drinking for the rest of our lives. There are also many brothers in our brocade clothes and guards who are very well taken care of by you, so you can't favor one over the other. ”

After this conversation, Shen Zhuo and the others smiled and groaned very naturally, but Yang Zhen, who was sitting down, changed their faces. What is this? It was obvious that Jinyi Wei regarded himself as a subordinate of the eunuch, which was the most intolerable thing for Tang Feng.

Why did he dare to do such a thing in Wuchang, in addition to Zhai Qu's accident, but also because he also had his own ambitions, hoping to change the status quo of Jinyiwei being at the mercy of others. But now it's good, not only is Jinyiwei under the suppression and jurisdiction of Dongchang in the capital, but he still has to rely on the snort of such a town guard eunuch in the local area, how can he bear it?

However, thinking that he had just arrived in Hangzhou, and he had no foundation, Tang Feng couldn't turn his face with these people at this time, so he had to hold back for the time being to see what they said.

At this time, An Li frowned there: "This thing is not easy to do, after all, we are only in charge of such a small matter, but there are too many people under our hands." But since it's you Shen Qianhu who spoke, we have to give you an explanation, right?

"In this way, the shops on the former Song Yu Street are still short of people to take care of, collect taxes or something, so arrange them over there. The work there is also idle, but there is a lot of income every day, but it is a fat gap. ”

"Father-in-law is righteous, the lower officials heard that many people asked for this job before, but the father-in-law was not willing to give it, but he didn't want to give it to our brother today. The lower official salutes his father-in-law for a glass and pays respect. Shen Zhuo was overjoyed when he heard this, and hurriedly picked up the wine glass, and at the same time motioned to Tang Feng for them to also give An Li wine.

But except for a few brocade guards he brought to pick up the wine glass, none of the dozen or so people on Tang Feng's side did the same, and there was no joy on their faces.

What is this, is it to send them Jinyiwei as a begging for food? Actually told them to take care of the shops and collect taxes, is this what these people should do?

Even Yang Zhen also felt that he was angry and went straight up, they didn't just send people away, they were obviously humiliating and entertaining them. Is it finally the end of the dagger?

Seeing them like this, An Li, who was still smiling and groaning, also had a gloomy face: "What's the matter, a few people are not satisfied with the errand we arranged?" His gaze swept over the faces of the crowd, and finally fell on Yang Zhen, who was looking at the youngest, with a lot of momentum.

But this momentum was not enough in front of Yang Zhen at all, and he saw him leisurely raise his wine glass and take a sip of the mellow daughter red before he said leisurely: "I didn't come to Hangzhou to make this money." We are Jinyiwei, the people used by the imperial court to supervise hundreds of officials, how can we do what only the tax collectors can do? ”

If he was still the little head of Jiangling City, with such a job that could make a lot of oil and water, Yang Zhen would not let it go no matter what. He has been a human for two lifetimes, but he can also accept a stable life. But now, now that he has become a brocade guard, he pursues natural differences, and it is impossible for him to accept such an insulting arrangement.

Seeing that even the youngest person dared to speak up to himself like this, how could Father-in-law An still bear it, and his face changed at that time: "What do you want?" I was not satisfied with such a good errand, and I still wanted to supervise the officials? You have to understand one thing, this is Hangzhou, not Wuchang, and you can't be allowed to act recklessly!

"What kind of place is Hangzhou? It is a heavy place for me to pay taxes on money and grain, and if there is a little chaos, the treasury will be affected. Don't say it's you, even if Liu Shouyou is here, you have to obediently listen to our family's orders. Let's leave it here today, there is only one errand, if you don't want to do it, then don't do anything! ”

Seeing that Father-in-law An was angry, Shen Zhuo felt nervous, and couldn't help glaring at Tang Feng and the others fiercely: "Don't hurry up and make amends to your father-in-law." And you, what kind of identity do you have, you dare to talk back to your father-in-law, see how I clean you up when I go back! The latter words were said to Yang Zhen.

At this time, Tang Feng couldn't watch anymore, he arched his hand towards Shen Zhuoyi and said, "Lord Qianhu, although my brother is reckless, he is also reasonable. We are Jinyiwei, but we are not his father-in-law's people, so we really don't need to do such chores. I was a little tired when I first arrived in Hangzhou today, and I couldn't support it after drinking some wine just now, so I took my leave. As he spoke, he only glanced at An Li, and then beckoned everyone to leave the table.

Tang Feng was actually quite annoyed, but after all, he didn't care about the overall situation as Yang Zhen, so he had to leave earlier. Seeing this, several other people also got up and followed him. But as soon as they arrived at the door of the private room, two strong men who were eight feet tall blocked their way, and it was Anli's personal guards.

Yang Zhen didn't speak, and slammed his shoulders into the person on the left. When the man saw that he was only a teenager, he sneered, and when he was lucky, he was about to harden his head. didn't want Yang Zhen to hit him as a false move, seeing that he was pushing through his chest, he suddenly stretched out his foot and hooked the man, and then got out of the way.

Yang Zhen and the others went out proudly at this time, and they didn't stop for a moment.

When everyone in the room saw this, they were even more shocked, and even An Li forgot to be angry for a while, and it took a long time to knock down the Zhuo case in front of him, and shouted in a sharp voice: "It's the opposite!" They are really the opposite, they dare to speak like this, they dare to move at my people! ”

Shen Zhuo was also full of anger at this time, but at the same time, he felt even more nervous, for fear that the An Gonggong Guild would be angry with him, so he had to persuade him: "Father-in-law is angry, father-in-law is ......angry, and his subordinates in Jinyi are even more silent with their heads bowed there, eager to get into the wall.

After scolding several times, An Li gradually controlled his emotions: "I heard that these Jinyi guards from Wuchang will make trouble, and they are bold, but today I finally saw it." Shen Qianhu, they insulted you like this, can you still bear it? ”

"This ......" Shen Zhuo hesitated, and he didn't dare to say anything cruel.

At this time, Ma Feng, who walked out of the building, looked at Yang Zhen with concern: "Erlang, your words and deeds today are indeed a little too much. It's okay for us to offend the eunuch An, but this time even Shen Qianhu was offended, which is not a good thing. ”

Hearing this, Yang Zhen glanced at Tang Feng and said with a smile: "Baihu also saw the clues, knowing that Shen Qianhu was just a dog, and there was no threat at all, so he didn't stop me?" ”

"Not bad." Tang Feng's face was still a little ugly: "I didn't expect that the Jinyi Wei in Hangzhou was so unbearable, just like Erlang said, he became the lackey of Na Anli, he would only obey orders, and he didn't even have the slightest sense of autonomy." I said when did our Jinyiwei become so rich and able to live in such a magnificent mansion, and now I think it should be given to him by An Li. ”

"This dog, wolf, Erlang, you and Baihu are talking happily, but why don't we understand it?" Deng Ting couldn't help but ask.

"The wolf, who walks in the wilderness, is free, fierce and cunning. Although he is sometimes attacked by strong enemies, and sometimes he goes hungry because he can't catch prey, he can always make his own decisions. But the dog is different, it looks comfortable, and it doesn't have to rush for three meals. But it has lost its most precious freedom, and it needs to snort on others, and it needs to bow down at the feet of others and wag its tail and beg for mercy. We are wolves, but that Shen Qianhu is just a dog beside Eunuch An. ”

"So that's what happened, and this analogy is cleverly played." Ma Feng nodded, but said, "Are we too impatient?" I fell out with them when I came here, and I won't have a good time in the future. ”

Tang Feng smiled heavily: "Actually, before I came here, I knew that they wouldn't let us have a good time, but I didn't expect that they would treat us like this when we arrived in Hangzhou." But this is good, there are a lot less things to be false and wrongful, and we can let go of our hands and feet more. This Hangzhou is the important land for the imperial court's money and grain, so we have to dig out those corrupt officials and silverfish for the imperial court. ”

"And ......" Yang Zhen also put forward his own opinion: "If we make such a fuss, it will inevitably spread out, not to mention the officials in Hangzhou who have a gap with them, even those in Jinyiwei who are unwilling to be manipulated by others, will inevitably stand with us." Are you afraid that you won't be able to gain a foothold here in the future? ”

Both of them said so, and the others finally felt a little relieved, and the haze just now was over.
