The officials who came were all officials from Pingjiang Prefecture.

When they got the news, they didn't dare to show up, first, because they were afraid of intervening in the dispute between the two favored ministers of the Son of Heaven - the people recommended by Zhu Mian naturally did not have any principles, and secondly, they gave Zhu Mian a chance to solve the problem, in their opinion, with Zhu Mian's power, it was normal to crush Zhou Quan in Suzhou.

What I didn't expect was that the two sides were deadlocked.

Zhou Quan, a strong dragon, suppressed Zhu Mian on Zhu Mian's territory.

This made the officials in Suzhou begin to mumble, could it be that Zhou Quan's status in the eyes of the official family is still above Zhu Mian?

Although they are well-informed, they are far inferior to Zhu Mian, so they don't know about the Cotton Chamber of Commerce.

Zhu Mian felt that he was on par with Zhao Ji's favor that Zhou Quan obtained, and he could even be a few points higher, but with the group of people from the Cotton Chamber of Commerce, even Zhu Mian had a deep sense of powerlessness.

Otherwise, where would he need to use such means as intercepting the shipwright to get angry!

"This is Zhou Yanei, I have long heard that Zhou Yanei is in the north of the country, and there is a rebellion in Xuzhou, I see it today, three lives are lucky, three lives are lucky!"

Suzhou has just been promoted to Pingjiang Mansion, and the one who speaks is the current prefect. In addition to him, the general judge was also there, both of them were smiling, they first glanced at Zhu Mian, and then greeted Zhou Quan.

Zhou Quan glanced at them, Zhou Quan knew the details of these two guys very well.

Since Zhu Mian gained power, many officials in Suzhou, big and small, were played by Zhu Mian, and anyone who dared to offend him was driven away by him.

"You two don't know anything about it, the shipwright sent to Haizhou by the imperial court was intercepted on the boundary of your Suzhou, if the official family is to blame, can you two afford it?" Zhou Quan shouted.

"Alas, I know about this matter, and it's not intercepted, it's just ......"

"Huh? If you don't intercept it, then hand it over! Zhou Quan interrupted him unceremoniously.

The prefect's face was full of embarrassment, in fact, if it weren't for Zhu Mian's urging, he wouldn't want to wade into this troubled water at all. In front of Zhou Yanei, he is not a good person to mess with, it is said that it is Xu Churen, who was once the prime minister, he doesn't give face, Xu Churen offended him, and the final result is to die in the thief chaos!

"Hmph, the Huashi Gang named by the official, now the Gang ship is rotten, and the boatsmith is urgently needed, I am not intercepting, just borrowing it temporarily, and when the Gang ship is repaired, it will naturally make these shipwrights go north, do you think that the matter of the Huashi Gang of the imperial court is not an important matter?" When Zhu Mian saw the prefect's appearance, he knew that he didn't dare to have a hard fight with Zhou Quan, so he said sharply at the moment.

"When will the ship be repaired?" The corners of Zhou Quan's mouth curved upward, and he asked with a faint sneer.

"That maybe...... After all, there are too many ships, so they will be repaired here, and they will be broken there. Zhu Mian also laughed.

The two looked at each other, and Zhu Mian felt that he was sure of victory, as long as he didn't hand over the boatsmith, he still took advantage, so he didn't show weakness.

But at this moment, Zhou Quan's complexion suddenly changed, his eyebrows were raised, and his eyes were like electricity: "Idiot!" ”

Under his sudden change of color, Zhu Mian was shocked, and couldn't help but take two steps back, when he thought that he was under the escort of dozens of people, separated from Zhou Quan by more than ten zhang, and there were several layers of people standing between the two sides, he came to his senses.

But Zhou Quan's power of changing color just now made him still shocked in his heart.

Why is this guy so angry!

"Fool, the people who were transferred to Haizhou are all craftsmen who build sea ships, and you let them repair the boats, that's a bull's head and a horse's mouth! Tsunade ships and sea ships are not the same thing, use your elm brain to think clearly, and the next time you lie, it's ......"

Zhou Quan scolded, Zhu Mian was frightened by him just now, and felt that he couldn't get over his face, and at this time he was even more angry when he scolded him, and immediately shook his hand, turned around and returned to his house.

When he entered, the guards looked at each other, and a gold-belted steward cautiously ran over and asked, "Outside...... How is it good? ”

"Transfer everyone back, I don't believe he dares to break into my door, if he really dares to break in, I will fight the royal lawsuit, and I will give him some strength, and I will arrest people first!" Zhu Mian's eyes flashed.

The steward of the golden belt nodded, and was waiting to go back to give the order, when Zhu Mian heard it again: "Wait, pass my order, this dog, this dog and his dog legs, there must not be any foot shop in Suzhou, and no grain of rice or a drop of water can be sold to him, whoever dares not to listen to me, I will let whoever family die!" Let that idiot from the prefect send a messenger to keep an eye on me, and if he dares to make trouble, arrest him immediately! ”

He was very angry, and he was ruthless, the steward went out, first beckoned to the prefect and the general judge, these two court officials in front of him, the manager of the Zhu Mansion, actually seemed to see the top boss, nodded and bowed, and after listening to his orders, the two of them were as pale as earth, and then they wanted to say it again, but the golden belt steward no longer paid attention to them, and directly beckoned, and the people guarding the gate were all summoned back to the mansion.

The scarlet door slammed shut behind them, and the knocker on the door vibrated softly and hummed.

"Scold me, scold Zhu Mian!" Zhou Quan shouted.

The twenty or thirty people who came with him, except for Wu Yang, all scolded loudly. Everyone was gossiping, and when they were tired and took a break, they heard one person screaming: "Zhu Mian, you are a ditch seller, grandpa prostituted you last night and you haven't paid for prostitution, you ......"

It was Lao Zhu who scolded, and when he heard him say that he was obscene, Wu Yang frowned: "Okay, you don't have to scold!" ”

Lao Zhu was uneasy in his heart at this time, and when he heard Wu Yang's words, he salivated and smiled: "Brother Wu, Brother Wu, brother, I know that I am wrong, can you give me a few kind words in front of Da Lang?" ”

Wu Yang moved to the side in some disgust, but Lao Zhu still stepped forward. Wu Yang was entangled helplessly, looked at Zhou Quan, but found that Zhou Quan waved his hand: "If you have anything to say, go back and talk about it." ”

Lao Zhu saw Zhou Quan speak, and it didn't seem like he wanted to pursue him, and he was suddenly happy in his heart. Then he continued to scold, but now he scolded much quieter, and he didn't say any more obscene words.

Wu Yang knew that the more Zhou Quan looked like he didn't care about it, the more he went to his heart, this old Zhu was on the Zhou family's side, and he didn't want to have any future.

However, he is not sorry for Lao Zhu, with this person's temperament, working under the hands of Zhou's father and son, sooner or later he will have to break into a big disaster.

He looked at Merlin, who still wanted some face, and looked at him and bowed his head silently.

Everyone blocked Zhu Mian's mansion and scolded, and after a long time, no one came out to answer. This Zhu Mian is a tyrant in Suzhou City, and he has always been rampant, and others don't say that scolding him in person, even if he glares at him behind his back, it is risky. At this time, he was blocked by the door and changed his tricks and scolded, which immediately attracted the interest of the people of Suzhou, and in a short period of time, the news spread all over Suzhou, and I don't know how many people were interested in rushing to the outside of the Sun Lao Bridge to see the excitement.

These Zhou Fu's "old brothers" are scolding, they are born in the army, and scolding is also a compulsory skill, and they have been mixed in the Jingshi market for many years. The locals listened to it very much, and many people pointed their fingers outside, and the people of the Zhu Mansion on the wall were extremely angry.

They were also a little frightened in their hearts, why they were bullied like this, but their master did not give the order to fight back.

After scolding for two moments, everyone felt thirsty and their voices became quieter.

"Ji Chun, you go and ask for some water, let everyone moisten their throats first." Zhou Quan commanded.

Ji Chun ran to the first house, and only then did he say his intention, and the family smiled bitterly: "It's not a secret, my family also fetches water from someone else's house, and there is no well in my house." ”

When I asked the second house again, the owner of the second house said: "It's unfortunate that Lang Jun came, although there is a well in my house, but the well water has become dirty and smelly recently, and it is not drinkable, please go to another house to find it." ”

When he arrived at the third house, he explained his intentions, and the other party closed the door tightly, letting Ji Chun eat a closed door.

Ji Chun sensed that something was wrong, and hurriedly returned to Zhou Quan's side, and when he talked about it, everyone immediately understood: "Hugh is going to ask, it must be Zhu Mian's dog thief's trick, he forced the surrounding people not to give us water to drink!" ”

"These people don't know how to do things, they are afraid of Zhu Mian, so they are not afraid of us?" Lao Zhu, who was in a hurry to behave, took the initiative to ask Ying: "Da Lang, I'll go ask for water, if they dare not give it, I'll ......"

"You've got injuries, so stay here." Wu Yang snorted.

Lao Zhu was about to pat his chest and say that he was fine, but he was pulled by his brother who had a good relationship with him, and the brother's face was full of embarrassment, and he motioned for him to look at everyone.

Lao Zhu realized that as soon as he opened his mouth, everyone showed a look of smiling rather than smiling, and it was clear that they were very contemptuous of him.

"It's okay, I remember everyone brought water bags, drank the water in the water bags, and then continued to scold." Zhou Quan said with a smile.

Everyone remembered that when they came in the morning, they were indeed ordered by Wuyang, and they all brought water bladders as if they were marching out. Although the water in the bladder doesn't taste good, it's always okay to quench your thirst.

"If you don't give us water to drink, you won't give us food...... Fortunately, the martial brother also ordered the preparation of dry food! ”

Everyone drank the water and began to shout and scold again, in the Zhu Mansion, Zhu Mian sneered twice after getting the news: "Let him scold, I don't believe he brought so much water and dry food!" ”

There is no shortage of water in Suzhou, there is a small river ditch at the entrance of Zhufu, but the water in this ditch is not well water, there is no problem with laundry, and it is not very clean to scoop and drink. Even if the problem of water can be solved, the problem of food cannot be solved, not to mention that when night comes, no foot shop dares to take them in, so they can only sleep on the streets.

But in the middle of the day, when noon came, Zhu Mian suddenly received news that Zhou Quan and his gang left.

"Are you really gone, and there is no one left?" Zhu Mian asked.

"Yes, you should listen, there is no sound outside!"

The courtyard of the Zhu Mansion is deep, and it is difficult for the sound outside to reach here, Zhu Mian listened to it for a while, and then ordered to the steward of the golden belt: "Send someone to keep an eye on it, let the people of Pingjiang Mansion also keep an eye on it, this dog thief must be playing something famous......"

Before the words fell, a shout came from outside: "It's not good, Ying Feng, it's not good!" ”
