Su You's words are not insignificant, if these words reach Yang Guang's ears, then Zhang Xin will not want to stay in this position.

Speaking of which, why did Su You say these words?

Just because of the accidental death of the third prince of Yuan, Zhang Xin's political future will be completely ruined, unless he can catch the murderer as soon as possible, but this matter also involves the assassination of his son Zhang Mo, if this matter is dug deeper, who can guarantee that Zhang Mo's life will not be involved?

Su You didn't know that Zhang Xin was worried about his son, but he finally understood Zhang Xin's current situation.

Knocking down Zhang Xin, isn't this the task that Yang Guang gave Su You? Unexpectedly, because of the death of Yuan Shangliu, the purpose of Su You's trip was unexpectedly achieved.

Su You felt this, so he said, "I was still a little distressed before I came here, I only complained to Zhang Junshou yesterday that the official ship was burned, and today I came to complain that I was assassinated, it looks like a disaster." How did I know that I had just gone out, and I ran into the Yuan's Courtyard again? ”

"Yes, yes, the lower officials are really unfavorable for the passing years" Zhang Xin was under the pressure of Su You, so he could only attribute everything to his own luck.

Su You shook his head and said concisely, "The murder case of the Yamen of Jixian County and the murder and arson case of the Yuan's Villa must be thoroughly investigated!" If these two cases keep hanging, you and I won't have a good year! ”

Zhang Xin immediately swore and said, "Su Yushi, please rest assured. Even if it is not a good year, the lower officials will do their best to thoroughly investigate these two cases. ”

Su You nodded and expressed satisfaction with Zhang Xin's determination, and then said with some distress, "Actually, an important reason why this official came here today is to say goodbye to Zhang Yuanjun, and I really can't stay in this Pengcheng County." ”

"Farewell? It's a good feeling. Zhang Xin blushed a little when he heard Su You's words, but more than that, he didn't believe it;

Will Su You really go? Even if he was leaving, he could afford to come here in the middle of the night to say goodbye to himself?

Su You looked at Zhang Xin silently and asked playfully, "What?" The county guard seems to be a little reluctant to give up on this official? ”

Zhang Xin listened to Su You's words, and naturally believed in Su You's determination to leave, and then said in a humble manner, "Su Yushi only arrived in Pengcheng yesterday, and the lower officials originally wanted to wash the dust for Yushi today, but it seems that this reception banquet can only be changed to a feast." ”

"That's not necessary, even if I come quietly, I should leave quietly, I wave my sleeves, and I don't take a cloud with me." After Su You said this, he stared at Zhang Xin with some embarrassment and asked, "When will the boat that Zhang Junshou promised to pay me be handed over to me?" Without a means of transportation, it is really difficult to move an inch. ”

"This" After listening to Su You's coercive words, Zhang Xin hated so much that he wanted to scold his mother, although he can now embezzle twenty ships from his family's boat company to compensate Su You, but doesn't this expose the inside story that he is the mastermind behind the boat company?

However, if Su You continued to stay in Pengcheng, what kind of big trouble would happen if he didn't say it.

After thinking about it, Zhang Xin still made up his mind, nodded and agreed, "It's no problem at all, before noon tomorrow, Yushi can take someone to the dock to pick up the boat, and the next official can guarantee that Yushi can return to the Eastern Capital before the year." ”

With Zhang Xin's assurance, Su You didn't ask him about the source of the ship, and then stood up and said, "Then the official is relieved, since that's the case, he will leave." ”

Seeing off the plague god, Zhang Xin was also happy in his heart, and quickly stood up and said, "Congratulations to Su Yushi." ”

"Don't fix this useless." Su You waved his hand and said lightly, "Put more effort into your work, and if you can solve these two important cases as soon as possible, it will be the greatest reward for me." ”

Zhang Xin nodded and stopped, but scolded in his heart, "Who the hell wants to give you back?" Treat you as a green onion, do you really think you can dip in sauce? ”

Zhang Xin slandered in his abdomen, and Song Hao was also at a loss like the second monk, thinking back to what Su You did today, he was really a man like the wind.

But why is he so spicy and so hard to see?

Su You and the others came out of the county office, and immediately called Zhai Rang and said, "Mr. Xu, can you contact the family of the bitter master who was beaten to death by Zhangjia Boat Company?" Can you bring them to me? ”

Zhai Rang nodded, but asked with some puzzlement, "There's no problem, it's just that tomorrow will be a small year."

"If they want justice, let them write their deeds and come to me within two days; If they don't want to get revenge, come back quickly. Su You obviously knew what Zhai Rang was thinking, and then said in an undoubted tone.

"Mr. wants to avenge them, and they will definitely not refuse this." Zhai Rang suddenly realized.

Su You smiled, "For the New Year, I just want to do a big one, I don't have the action to do it, and I don't have the face to see them." ”

Wang Bodang, Lu Zhongsu and the others listened to Su You's words, and they all looked at Su You with strange eyes, but Zhai Rang didn't pay much attention to his tone, nodded and agreed, "I'll leave the city early in the morning and try to bring them to Pengcheng within two days." ”

Su You shook his head and said in a low voice, "We will leave here at noon tomorrow, and we will meet in Yangzhou when we pour." ”

"Yangzhou?" Several people around Su You looked at Su You with some disbelief when they heard that Su You was not rushing back to the Eastern Capital for the New Year, but continuing to go south.

"It's Yangzhou." Su You nodded, but didn't explain anymore.

Wang Bodang and the others naturally knew that Su You's purpose in going to Yangzhou was to do what he just said, so they didn't say much at this time.

After tossing and turning for half a night, after everyone relaxed, drowsiness came in time, and then they returned to the inn.

At noon the next day, Zhang Xin really delivered more than 20 boats as promised, and set up a banquet for Su Youyang at the largest inn in Pengcheng County, Zuixianju.

When Lu Zhongsu looked at the more than twenty boats in front of him, his heart was full of infinite gratitude to Su You, compared to the original twenty ships of his, these ships were simply one in the sky and one on the ground.

Looking at the ships in front of him, Lu Zhongsu began to be complacent, but when he thought about continuing to do freight, he hesitated a little.

There is a monopoly on the canal, and it is not easy to do what you like as you like.

"Anyway, let's finish this ticket with Su You in Yangzhou first." Lu Zhongsu finally made up his mind, at least he found that he couldn't lose himself by following Su You so far, and he didn't know that following Su You for the past few days, there was more gangsterism in his mouth.

When Lu Zhongsu was thinking nonsense, he saw Lai Yanbei walking out of the city with Su You staggering, and beside him were Xia Ziteng and Lu Sheng, who were also shaking, Wang Bodang and Lai Yanbei didn't seem to be drinking.

Lu Zhongsu quickly stepped forward to support Lu Sheng and Xia Ziteng, and said to his son a little angrily, "Let you follow Mr. to take care of Mr., why are you drinking so much?" ”

Lu Sheng was counted down by his father, and defended in a daze, "When you go out, Mr. has an explanation, advise him to drink more and eat less vegetables."

"What a mess." Lu Sheng was speechless for a moment, but shook his head helplessly.

Wang Bodang seemed to know what he was thinking, and said softly, "This is also what the gentleman ordered, the three of them got those big and small officials drunk, which is why they didn't send them out." ”

Lu Zhongsu was able to correctly look at Su You's greedy cup at this time, and then suddenly said, "I see, Mr. doesn't want them to know our whereabouts?" ”

Wang Bodang smiled, "It's a while to hide it, there are so many of us, and we can't hide it for long." ”

Lu Zhongsu nodded, and then ordered the boats, "Let's go!" ”

The opening of the Grand Canal is to make use of natural rivers and old channels, just like the Great Wall of Qin, and more projects are connected on the basis of inheriting the previous places.

The canal takes Luoyang as the center, leads to Zhuojun in the northeast, and extends to Yuhang in the southwest.

However, the project from Luoyang to Zhuojun called Yongji Canal has only just been put on the agenda, and it will not be until the spring of next year to start construction. The section from Luoyang to the southwest is the Tongji Canal, which was opened two years ago.

The Tongji Canal starts from the Xiyuan of Luoyang, leads the two rivers of Luoyang and Luoshui to the Yellow River, and then dredges the Gudang Canal and enters the Huai River. It passes through Xingyang, Yongqiu and various parts of Liang County.

Su You and the others set off from Pengcheng, went directly down the Huaishui River, and turned into Hangou.

Hangou is one of the four sections of the canal, it was opened by Wu Wangfu in the Spring and Autumn Period, Yang Guang carried out the dredging and expansion, and directly connected the Huaishui and the Yangtze River, Su Youshun Hangou went south to the end of the Jiangdu, but the canal to the Jiangdu has not yet ended, continue to lead the water of the Yangtze River from Jingkou to Yuhang, enter the Qiantang River to be finished.

The construction of the canal from Luoyang to Jiangdu is more than 2,000 miles, and the length of the Yongji Canal is also similar, plus the ditch and the Jiangnan River. The Grand Canal is a spectacular wonder that has never been seen since ancient times.

The fourth section of the canal connects the five major water systems of the Hai River, the Yellow River, the Huai River, the Yangtze River and the Qiantang River. Through the six major regions of Hebei, Shandong, Henan, Anwei, Jiangsu and Zhejiang.

At this time, it is really the main artery of north-south traffic.

Su You traveled all the way south, that is, along the main artery to Yangzhou City in Jiangdu County.

Yangzhou City stands next to the river and belongs to Jiangdu County, which is the most prosperous city except Luoyang and Chang'an. Mainly because from Yangzhou down the Yangtze River, you can go to overseas Ryukyu, Wakoku, and Nanyang.

Su You had originally planned to build a large port in Yangzhou, so that the city eventually became a place of merchants like Zhangye in the northwest.

When Su You arrived at the official ferry port outside Yangzhou, the riverside wharf was already full of large and small ships, both official and private.

Su You had already said that he would come quietly and go quietly, so he had already realized that no one cared about him, and the county guard of Jiangdu County was in Yangzhou City, but in Danyang (Nanjing).

When Su You was about to get off the boat, he saw Zhai Rang leading two men and women who were a little dusty and hurried, and under their collars, there were two black knots sewn together, obviously with hot filial piety.

Su You didn't have to guess to know who they were, so his face immediately became solemn, and he nodded and beckoned to them, "I am Su You, and the court has a loss to you." ”

How did the two of them think that Su You was such an approachable high-ranking official? For a while, he couldn't help but burst into tears, and he was about to kneel down immediately, and said, "Please make the decision for us." ”

Su You nodded and said firmly, "I brought you here to give you justice." ”
