Chapter 284 It's not that enemies don't get together
In the city of Hangzhou, the recent focus has been on the mass food poisoning incident.
With regard to this extremely bad case, the Imperial Dispatch Administration and the Governor Yamen attached great importance to this case, and ordered Zhejiang to solve the case within a time limit according to the procurator and the prefect of Hangzhou. After a 'rigorous' investigation, the two divisions concocted a final report: "The reason why this food poisoning occurred was because people had eaten spoiled meat. The source of spoiled meat is a small restaurant called 'guest first come'. The restaurant's hygienic conditions are extremely poor and customers are extremely scarce, so the consumption of ingredients is extremely slow, and the black-hearted boss will make spoiled meat in a big sauce to cover up the taste, and sell it at a low price to attract greedy people who don't know the truth. When it was said that the other diners who ate the meat in the restaurant all vomited and diarrhea, and even fell unconscious. The store has now been sealed, but the owner and the child are on the run and are being pursued. ’
Because Zhao Zhenji doesn't know about criminal investigation and can't do laboratory tests, he can only believe this seemingly reasonable report. All that remains is to determine the main person responsible, and he believes that Shen Mo, who proposed and paid for the banquet, should be held responsible, but the Zhejiang Inspector disagreed, and he wrote in the report: 'The acquiescence paid six taels and ordered three tables to be taken; If there are two or two seats of silver, you will be able to buy a first-class restaurant and a first-class table, and there will be no risk of corruption; However, you are greedy for small profits, and you deduct from it, and even go to the 'guest first' to buy a table of six dollars for a banquet, which causes all the adults to vomit and diarrhea, so it is foolish to think that the person who pays is not responsible, and the person who deducts is fully responsible. ’
In the face of this question, Zhao Zhenji was speechless, but he couldn't easily hand over his subordinates, otherwise who would mess with him in the future? The pair is convenient to unfold a big tug, and every time it is entangled in some details. A few days passed like this, until the news came...... Three of the Japanese were killed during the escort, and the king of the Qincha was seriously injured!
After the initial shock, Zhao Zhenji felt a deep frustration, originally he thought that this was a case of official coercion and civil rebellion, but now he knows that both sides are not good birds. He finally discovered that the water in this pond in Zhejiang was too dark and muddy, and it was impossible to find out anything just by relying on himself as an outsider...... Hu Zongxian was also shocked, he finally believed that Zhu Kun's death was not accidental, but that there was indeed a group of people with boundless power and boldness, hiding behind their backs and calling for wind and rain, and they could put themselves to death at any time. As soon as he thought of this, he couldn't help but sweat on the back of his clothes, and said to Wen Zhengming: "It seems that the consequences of blindly being tough are very serious." ”
Wen Zhengming nodded and said: "Their strength is indeed too strong, no wonder Admiral Zhu once said, 'Go to foreign countries to steal Yi, go to China to steal difficult.'" It is easy to go to China's coastal pirates, but it is especially difficult to go to China's well-dressed pirates. 'Ahh ”
Hu Zongxian nodded with deep feeling and said: "Yes, whether it is a pirate or a pirate, they can all be seen and touched, and the soldiers will block the water and cover the earth." But those 'Chinese thieves' are hidden among the big families in the southeast, and most of the families who are not involved in smuggling, are inextricably linked. It's like that fish-eyed bastard, so that you can't catch it, you can't touch it, and you don't dare to uproot it. ”
"What's the matter with Dong Weng?" Wen Zhengming asked softly.
"We have to change our strategy," Hu Zongxian stroked his beard and said, "It's not enough to just come hard, and we should think of a way from elsewhere." Said with a wry smile and said: "But if you say a thousand things and ten thousand, you have to invite the great god of Old Master Zhao away first, I can't do anything if he is here." Pointing to the war report on the table: "I have lost two battles in a row this month." ”
"It's really too much of an impact." Wen Zhengming squinted his eyes and said: "It's better to write a letter to complain, and then attach these two battle reports, I believe the court will transfer him." ”
"That's not right." Hu Zongxian shook his head and said, "In case Your Majesty thinks that these two defeats were done by me on purpose, shouldn't I repeat the mistakes of Zhang Jing?" ”
"What then?" After all, Mr. Wen is old, his brain is slow, and he can only cope with copywriting work, and he is not a qualified staff.
It's a pity that Xu Weizhong lifted it. Hu Zongxian had a strange thought, and after a pause, he sighed and said, "I can't say that I have to rely on Yan Ge Lao......"
"Are you looking for him again?" Wen Zhengming also sighed: "Look at this time, as soon as the Qin mission arrived, Zhao Wenhua hid far away, Yan Dangzhi can be seen, Dong Weng should not be with him." "He was a staunch opponent of the strict party.
Hu Zongxian shook his head and said, "If I don't rely on them, who can I rely on?" Except for Yan Gelao, who can solve the situation in Zhejiang? Those people want my life! After a long sigh, he was afraid for a while: "This time is too dangerous, if it weren't for my humble words to help, I'm afraid I would have been defeated by Zhao Zhenji and escorted into Beijing." ”
"Xie Yuanlang is indeed a master." Thinking of Shen Mo's unexpected hand, Wen Zhengming couldn't help but smile and said: "By the way, I have seen a lot of people come to the government to receive the yellow flag of the road guide these days, it seems that the time to enter Beijing to catch the exam has come, and I don't know if Xie Yuanlang can set off on time?" ”
"Unlikely," Hu Zongxian shook his head and said, "He is a messenger and runs official business, how can he abolish his official business because of private affairs?" ”
"I am a messenger and I am doing official business, how can I abolish my public business because of personal affairs?" Shen Mo shook his head and sighed: "So it's better for you to go first, as soon as my business is over, I will quickly catch up." His body had already recovered, but he didn't want to see Zhao Butang's stinky face, so he had been soaking in the inn.
Since there is no disease and is called sick, it is natural that you can't see people casually, so in this ** day, any people who visit are blocked out, so that he and Miss Yin can live comfortably for a while.
Until today, a guest who had to meet came to the door - six members of his Qionglin Club came together to express sincere condolences to his condition, and more importantly, to ask him if he could still enter Beijing together.
After hearing the silent negative answer, everyone showed a look of disappointment, Tao Yuchen said: "It's November in a blink of an eye, senior brother, don't be late." ”
"Don't worry, there's still more than three months." Shen Mo smiled: "I estimate that the matter here will drag on for another month at most, maybe half a month." ”
"Then we'll wait for you, shall we?" Humane.
"Don't," Shen Mo shook his head and said, "Didn't you hear from others, you don't even have a place to live when you go late, you still take the first step, and I can sit back and enjoy it." Then the people gave up.
Silence set up a banquet for six friends, but because they couldn't go together, there was more sorrow and parting at the banquet, which made people a little uncomfortable.
During the banquet, Sun Yan asked, "How are things going in Hangzhou?" Has the mastermind behind the scenes been found out? ”
"Look at what you said," Wu Dui said with a smile: "If you can find out, won't you go to Beijing with us?" ”
Shen Mo didn't want them to be blind, so he smiled and said, "It should be soon......"
When everyone heard that he didn't want to say more, they diverted the topic with interest, and after dinner, they talked until the middle of the moon, because they were about to go on the road the next day, so they could only stop and go back to their rooms to sleep.
Early the next morning, Shen Mo went to the dock to see them off, only to find that a passenger ship was full of people who had entered Beijing to take the exam, and many people recognized Yuan Lang and greeted him one after another, and asked without exception: "Why haven't you set off yet?" Let Shen Mo feel good in his heart, and he coped with a smile for a while, and finally sent a boatload of people away.
The passenger ship will carry the lifters through the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal to Yanjing City, the capital of the Ming Dynasty.
"But I'm not on ......the ship," Shen Mo sighed.
"I'm not on the boat either." A narrow voice sounded, Shen Mo turned around suddenly, and saw Xu Wei coming out from behind a pile of sacks with a wicked smile.
Seeing him as if he was alive and dead, Xu Wei scratched his head and said, "What, is there anything wrong?" ”
said silently: "Why are you not on the boat, I clearly saw you go up." ”
"Hey, won't you go up and come down?" Xu Wei smiled: "I changed my attention, I heard that Yanjing is cold, dry and dirty, so I didn't go so early." ”
Shen Mo's nose was a little sour: "You see that I am lost?" ”
"What? What are you missing? Xu Wei made a fuss and said: "You have money and the right to have women, you are not qualified to be lost, it is me who should be lost, Xu Wenchang, who has no money, no power and no woman." ”
Shen Mo knew that this guy was always duplicitous, so he stopped dwelling on these details. Because there are many things that men can only understand, but cannot be spoken, and everyone knows that this is the case.
On the carriage back, Xu Wei asked, "Now you can tell me, why are you entangled?" ”
Shen Mo smiled: "How do you know I'm entangled? I don't think I've ever shown it. It was tantamount to admitting it.
"I'm Xu Wenchang, who has insight into people's hearts," Xu Wei said with a smile: "Say it quickly." ”
After being silent for a while, he said silently and softly: "I am very conflicted now, on the one hand, my future and the happiness of my whole family, on the other hand, the overall situation of Zhejiang, the situation of resisting the Japanese, I don't know how to choose when I have to choose?" ”
"Can you be specific?" Xu Wei said softly: "I won't tell others." ”
"I can't say the specifics, because it hasn't happened yet." Shen Mo shook his head and said, "But I have a hunch that I will definitely meet this time." ”
"Hey, it's unfounded," Xu Wei breathed a sigh of relief and said indifferently: "I'll talk about it then." ”
"Is there anyone as enlightened as you?" Shen Mo laughed and scolded.
"Anyway, I don't want anything to happen to you." Xu Wei said quietly: "It's enough for me to have an idol like your master, and I don't want to have a second one." ”
