Thunderbolt!

When the Jiangnan General Soldier learned what had happened, it was really as if he had been directly hit by thunder, stupid!

However, when he saw the captured military attaché, his face changed drastically, and he was not as angry as Min Gui and the others expected, and his heart suddenly sank, knowing that the situation was even worse than they imagined.

"Lord Commander, I don't know where this person is from?"

After the general army detained the military attache who had left the camp with his troops without permission, in the flower hall of the general military office, Min Gui asked directly.

As a scholar from Jiangsu and Zhejiang, he naturally saw the problem.

In this case, it is better to ask directly.

"It's nothing to say!"

The chief soldier was obviously uneasy, but he was still very face-saving in the face of Min Gui, and smiled helplessly: "He is a member of the Wu clan of Taihu Lake in Changzhou!"

"Taihu Wu Clan?"

Min Gui was taken aback.

Anyone who reads knows that the Taihu Wu clan has a long history, and it is a Chinese descendant family handed down from the Yellow Emperor Ji clan.

Since Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty "respected Confucianism", the Wu family of Taihu Lake has become a thousand-year-old family of scholars.

It is often said that there are three surnames in the Ming Dynasty, namely the national surname Zhu family, the Qufu Confucian family, and the Jiangxi Zhang family.

But in fact, none of them can compare to the deep-rooted and long-standing Taihu Wu clan!

Compared with the Wu clan of Taihu Lake, the Wei Guogong of Jinling City is simply not comparable to the real wealthy family, and has a pivotal position in the south of the Yangtze River.

"The Taihu Wu clan is also involved with salt merchants?"

Min Gui was in a heavy mood, and this thought flashed in his heart, but he didn't say it.

As a thousand-year-old family, their influence in the south of the Yangtze River can be said to be incomparable, and they naturally operate in Yangzhou salt merchants, and they are deeply involved!

The Jiangnan General Army is a high-ranking official, but there are also people who can't be provoked. In fact, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty, against a native emperor like the Wu clan in Shangtaihu, in addition to his amazing force Feng Zhou, it is estimated that the cabinet elders and the factory guards will have a headache for a while, and they will make a decision after thinking about it for a long time.

Anyway, his heart was like a boulder at this time, and it was almost difficult to breathe, and he didn't have the domineering spirit of ignoring everything like backing the mountain and sealing the boat.

The Jiangnan General Soldier obviously wanted to extract himself from these things, so in the face of an official like Min Gui, who was far from the grade, he didn't reserve all that he could say: "Yes, the salt is extremely rich, even the thousand-year-old family can't turn a blind eye!"

"Hey, what a thousand-year-old family!"

Min Gui sneered, but the fellow Jinshi who was sitting next to him was so frightened that their faces turned pale and they didn't say a word, obviously the name of the Taihu Wu clan completely shocked them.

Jiangnan's attitude is very clear, he will not easily interfere in the troubled waters in Jiangnan, Min Gui is not too disappointed, but he feels that there is a big problem in Jiangnan's military and politics.

Returning to the courtyard arranged by the Jiangnan General Soldier in the government office, the faces of the attached officers of the Criminal Department completely collapsed, and they said in despair that the situation in Jiangnan was too complicated and terrible, and it was better to return to Beijing for the sake of safety.

"Will you continue to sit on the cold bench when you go back to Beijing?"

Min Gui's words were like a basin of cold water that directly made the hearts of those attachés of the Criminal Department half cold.

"But the situation in Jiangnan is so complicated, we have encountered several waves of attacks and killings, two waves of vicious Japanese robbers, and finally even the official army has been dispatched, if it goes on like this, will we have it?"

The worries of several attachés are also reasonable, they have been poured a lot of ecstasy soup in Yangzhou before, but if they don't react after experiencing these dangers, it is really a problem with their brains.

"It is precisely because of the complicated situation in Jiangnan that we should persist even more!"

Min Gui was unmoved, and when he saw that the faces of several colleagues had changed drastically, he wanted to refute, so he waved and said directly: "I don't bother to say the truth, you know more than me, I just say one thing, we are the criminal department and can even be said to be the pathfinder of the imperial court, once we have a firm foothold in Jiangnan and open up the situation, what reward do you think the imperial court will have?"

Naturally, he was promoted!

The future will be bright!

It is conceivable that before reaching the threshold of the high-ranking officials of Sanpin, their road to promotion will be smooth!

Think about their current boss, the left servant of the Daming Criminal Department.

He was only twenty years old.

But this official also made a fortune step by step.

Just like Huo Qu's illness at the beginning.

The attachés of the First Cadre Criminal Department were excited, they were all Jinshi who were waiting for candidates in Kyoto before, and they were extremely enthusiastic about the promotion of officialdom, and only after feeling the taste of being left out did they be even more reluctant to continue to live like that.

Easily persuaded his colleagues to fight together, Min Gui breathed a sigh of relief, and waited for his colleagues to leave and said to Li Chishui, who had never spoken: "Lord Li, I didn't expect the situation in Jiangnan to be so complicated!"

"yes, it's complicated!"

Li Chishui was also shocked by the madness of those big salt merchants in the south of the Yangtze River, as well as the deterrent power of the so-called thousand-year-old family.

He stayed in Xiandu Mountain for a few years, and he went around the mountain a lot, experienced the world, and heard of the name of the Taihu Wu family.

But I used to just hear it and forget it, but now I don't forget it.

The dignified Jiangnan Commander-in-Chief, who is only one step away from being the governor of Jiangnan, dared not attack the military attache who transferred troops because of the name of the Wu clan in Taihu Lake, how ridiculous is this?

Not to mention anything else, he had already written a secret letter and sent it to Kyoto through the channel of the General Administration, but he didn't know what Zhu Jianshen's expression would be after he got the news.

"I didn't expect the strength of the family in Jiangnan to be so terrifying!"

Min Gui smiled bitterly, in fact, he was also from Jiangnan, born in a scholarly family, and he was also very familiar with the Taihu Wu family, but he didn't expect that the other party's power was even more terrifying than he imagined.

"Not really, right?"

Li Chishui said disapprerovingly: "My eldest brother once said that the so-called influence is nothing more than power, money and soldiers, and the so-called family just monopolizes these three things, so as to have such a momentum!"

"I'm not as domineering as Lord Zuo Shilang, I can ignore all external things!"

Min Gui smiled bitterly and said depressedly: "We want to move the interests of these families, and we will usher in their crazy revenge, how did those widows come about, you and I don't know?"

"Hehe, Lord Min didn't tell me the truth, I don't believe that the eldest brother didn't explain to you, and he didn't tell you the means to solve the trouble in Jiangnan!"

Li Chishui didn't care, to put it bluntly, things in this world still depend on the size of the fist, and the fist behind him is definitely the biggest in the entire Ming Dynasty, there is no one.

I don't know how those salt merchants and the so-called family farmed, there was such a big thing as the Japanese invaders entering the county seat, and there was a major event where a military attache privately led troops out of the camp to besiege and kill the officials of the imperial court, and there was no sound of it.

In this way, Min Gui and others once again saw the strength of the snakes in the south of the Yangtze River.

But if they think they can cover the sky with one hand, then it's simple.

"Master Li is really wise! This thing is very simple!"

Min Gui smiled coldly, and Sen Sen said: "Since those big salt merchants dare to attack me, they will have to bear the monstrous anger of the imperial court and the criminal department, and it is imperative to open up new salt farms in the north." I'll see if Yanli is not the only one in Yangzhou, what confidence those big salt merchants will have to argue with the imperial court!"

He didn't say the latter words, and when Jiangnan Yanshang couldn't be a single family, then there would be revenge and revenge.
