The seventh prince Chu Haoyu entered the Jiangdu, like a sharp blade hanging above his head, many people couldn't sleep at night, but what surprised everyone was that the seventh prince Chu Haoyu was nostalgic for the beautiful scenery of the Jiangdu, and took his beloved daughter Chu Ruotong to play and play all day long, and seemed to forget the purpose of the trip, and the metropolitan governor Li Huairen also quieted down, it really fell off many people's glasses, but there are also people with sensitive minds, guessed that this is the calm before the storm, and the longer the silence erupts, the more intense it becomes, Just like Zheng Shenyuan, the head of the Zheng family, took the initiative to take his eldest son Zheng Qingyuan to the Governor's Mansion to confess his guilt, it can really be said that one stone stirred up a thousand waves.

Zheng Shenyuan's father and son pleaded guilty and went to prison, the Zheng clan sent Lingnan, the speed was jaw-dropping, and some people didn't even have time to react, the Governor's Mansion was already scouting to arrest the rest of the Zheng family, and for a while, everyone was in danger, this tense atmosphere, even if Chu Haoyu was intoxicated with the charm of Jiangdu, he also noticed it.

At noon on this day, Chu Haoyu accompanied his beloved daughter Chu Ruotong to go on a boat to Rouge Lake, and suddenly, there was a sound of horses' hooves on the shore, which was rapid and powerful, Chu Haoyu knew that he was in the army when he heard it, and he also knew what they were doing, and his expression did not change at all, but Chu Ruotong couldn't help but look over, looked at it for a moment and opened his mouth to ask: "Daddy, why is Jiangdu so chaotic, arresting people all day long?" ”

Poof, Chu Haoyu was actually amused by Chu Ruotong, and it took a long time to hold back his laughter, touch Chu Ruotong's little head and say, "You are a little naughty, make Daddy happy?" Jiangdu is fun, but let Tong'er linger and say that you want to stay in Jiangdu. ”

Snorting lightly, Chu Ruotong said dissatisfiedly: "However, Tong'er didn't expect Jiangdu to be so messy, seeing these armor soldiers arresting people every day, you know that there are many bad people in Jiangdu, and it is better to be in the capital, if Daddy can often take Tong'er out to play, it would be better." After a pause at this, Chu Ruotong sighed, and then said: "Daddy, in fact, Tong'er misses the imperial grandmother, her younger brother, and Aunt Yu." ”

This time, Chu Haoyu didn't laugh at her, the figure of the queen mother came to mind, this winter, I'm afraid it will be difficult for the queen mother! With a sigh in his heart, Chu Haoyu smiled at Chu Ruotong and said, "Since Tong'er wants to go back to Beijing, Daddy will take you back to Beijing." ”

"Really?" In the unbearable screams, Chu Ruotong jumped up even more, and the light boat was swaying, as if she was excited in her heart.

Holding his beloved daughter Chu Ruotong, Chu Haoyu chuckled and said, "When did Daddy deceive you little girl?" However, we have to wait a few more days, and when Daddy takes care of the affairs of Jiangdu, we will return to Beijing. ”

With a light hum, Chu Ruotong nodded, and said with a little adult: "Daddy is my Prince of Chu, etiquette should be based on state affairs, Daddy, you are busy, these days, Tong'er will not pester you." ”

Seeing that her daughter Chu Ruotong held up her chest with her hands behind her back, and her red smile was even more solemn, Chu Haoyu was amused by her again, and couldn't help pinching her red little face, and said with a smile: "My family Tong'er has grown up, and I know that I can share my father's worries, not bad, not bad." Rubbing Chu Ruotong's little face, Chu Haoyu couldn't help but kiss it, and then laughed again after thinking about it, and said, "Tong'er, do you want to know what martial arts are?" ”

Chu Ruotong was still a little unhappy to be treated as a child by his father Chu Haoyu, but when he heard about martial arts, his bright eyes suddenly burst into two rays of light, and he blurted out: "Okay, daddy, show Tong'er, Tong'er wants to see it." ”

Chu Haoyu seemed to be satisfied with Chu Ruotong's reaction, and stood up without seeing any movement, and at the same time held Chu Ruotong in his arms, opened his mouth and said, "Little girl, see clearly." After finishing speaking, Chu Haoyu stepped out of the light boat and stepped on the water, Chu Ruotong closed his eyes for fear of falling into the water, and then opened a thin line, seeing that his father Chu Haoyu was actually walking on the water, his round eyes shot two rays of light, there was surprise and envy, and there was undisguised pride, and he whispered in Chu Haoyu's ear: "Daddy, when Tong'er grows up, I will also be a big hero like you." ”

Listening to Chu Ruotong's crisp and childish voice, Chu Haoyu couldn't help laughing, but his body was getting faster and faster, and finally almost turned into a phantom, and soon walked to the shore. On the shore, Sun Hou and Xu Zhijian were waiting for Chu Haoyu, and when Chu Haoyu walked in, they bowed and saluted. Holding Chu Ruotong and walking into the carriage, Chu Haoyu opened his mouth and said: "Sun Hou, summon Lord Li, just say that this king will return to Beijing in three days, and also summon Lord Pingjiang, and escort him back to Beijing with more than three grades, and the rest will be handed over to the Governor's Mansion for disposal and return to the house." ”

"The little one gets the order." Bowing and saluting, Sun Hou strode away.

Li Huairen soon got the news that Chu Haoyu was about to return to Beijing, and after sitting in silence, he smiled at Sun Hou and said: "There is little brother Lao Sun, and I also bother little brother Sun to talk to the prince, and I will go to see the prince after a while." ”

Sending Sun Hou away, Li Huairen called Guan Zhongyun over, and said directly without nonsense: "The Seventh Prince will return to Beijing in three days." ”

Guan Zhongyun was not too surprised, but looked at Li Huairen and said, "The governor is worried about the prince's attitude? Seeing that Li Huairen nodded, Guan Zhongyun opened his mouth and said: "Governor, the old man sees that you are a fan of the authorities!" After a pause at this point, a smile appeared on the corner of Guan Zhongyun's mouth, and he said slowly: "This trip to Jiangnan, the Lord can be regarded as the deputy envoy of the Seventh Prince, after getting the former Governor Yang to commit suicide in fear of sin, the Seventh Prince even ordered the Lord to temporarily take the position of the Metropolitan Governor and rectify the rule of Huainan Province. Instead of asking the governor who can be appointed to the post of Changshi, the saint is clearly acquiescing to the governor, and after entering the river for more than a month, the lord has smoothed out the mess left by the governor of Yang, and now the Zheng family takes the initiative to ask for guilt, once the remnants of the Zheng family are purged, the governor will be able to completely control Huainan Road. Great Chu has been established for 30 years, and only the adults are really in control of Jiangdu, which is a great achievement for the saint and the Jiangshan Society. There is no merit or fault, the saint is a generation of Ming Jun, what do adults have to worry about? ”

After listening to Guan Zhongyun, although Li Huairen breathed a sigh of relief, there was still a thorn in his heart that had not been removed, but he did not say anything to Guan Zhongyun, but said with a smile: "It is the official who has lost his fortunes and losses, thanks to Brother Guan's reminder." Okay, Brother Guan will rest for the time being, Brother Guan has been busy in the past two days, and everyone has lost a lot of weight, Li can't bear it! ”

It is true that as Li Huairen said, in the past month in the Jiangdu, the obese Guan Zhongyun has really lost weight, but he enjoys it. Guan Zhongyun had very high ambitions when he was young, otherwise he would not have gone to the capital alone to fight for a future, but he ran into walls everywhere, not to mention, and finally almost let a few gangsters beat him to death, so he became a guest of Li Huairen, the four-grade Jing Zhaoyin, and now ten years have passed, Li Huairen has become a feudal official, and Guan Zhongyun has also risen to become the west seat of the Governor's Mansion.

Therefore, looking at Li Huairen, Guan Zhongyun had undisguised gratitude in his eyes, and said in a deep voice: "The adults are polite, the grace of knowing the encounter, Guan Mou keeps it in mind, shares the worries for the adults, and Guan Mou is even more happy." ”

Li Huairen and Guan Zhongyun have been friends for more than ten years, how can they not understand what he is like, he laughed and opened his mouth and said: "Since this is the case, then I will bother Brother Guan, and this official is going to visit the Seventh Prince." ”

Chu Haoyu seemed to expect Li Huairen to come, and was waiting for him in the lobby, and said directly after Li Huairen knelt down: "Okay, this king asks you, how is the current situation in Jiangdu?" ”

Standing solemnly in front of Chu Haoyu, Li Huairen bowed slightly and clasped his fists and saluted, and replied with his mouth open: "Back to the Seventh Prince, since Zheng Shenyuan's father and son were convicted and imprisoned, the lower officials began to arrest the remnants of the Zheng family, the Governor's Mansion and Jiangdu Mansion have been purged, and the Taishou of Huaiyin and Lujiang Counties have also been arrested, and Anlu County, Yiyang County, Tong'an County and Shouchun County have not been arrested because of the long distance. This time, all the elites of Huainan Wei sent by the lower officials, coupled with the prestige of Shang Fang's sword and the Seven Princes, should be enough to deter the younger generation. ”

Chu Haoyu understood what Li Huairen meant, the Zheng family was deeply rooted in Huainan Province, and it was not easy for these counties to be in charge, and Li Huairen, the governor of the capital, could not deter them at all, only Shang Fang's sword and Chu Haoyu's name could make them restrain themselves. Seeing any displeasure on Chu Haoyu's face, Li Huairen continued: "Speaking of Huainanwei, Xia Guan is having something to tell the prince. ”

Holding his fists again and saluting, Li Huairen opened his mouth and said: "Huainan Wei is also an elite division, including many veterans who followed the first emperor to conquer the world, but Wei Jiangtao is a traitor, not only discredited Huainan Wei, but also buried the elite of Huainan Wei, and now the guard Jiang is overstretched, once the situation is urgent, the lower officials are afraid that there will be no available soldiers, and the lower officials do not understand military affairs, and they all command Zhang Boyang has long been killed by the heavenly thorn traitor, Huainan Wei urgently needs a veteran of a hundred battles to support the overall situation. ”

Chu Haoyu knew that what Li Huairen said was the truth, but if it was in the past, Chu Haoyu would have taken care of it, but today, Chu Haoyu really didn't want to meddle in this matter. After a moment of silence, Chu Haoyu opened his mouth and said, "Qi'an still has a divine machine captain stationed?" ”

Li Huairen instantly guessed Chu Haoyu's thoughts, sighed in his heart, but his expression did not change at all, and he responded respectfully: "Back to the prince, General Zhang, the captain of the gods, sent a battalion of soldiers to garrison Qi'an. ”

Nodding lightly, Chu Haoyu said: "In this case, this king will send a letter, and the Shenji Captain will send troops to live in Jiangdu temporarily, and everything will be decided by the saint when he returns to Beijing to write to the court." Without waiting for Li Huairen to interject at all, Chu Haoyu continued: "This trip to Jiangnan, this king is led by the heavenly thorn thief, fortunately, Lord Li is loyal to the country, purging Jiangnan officials, so that this king can make a mission to the court, after returning to Beijing, this king will write to the court and ask for credit for you." ”

Li Huairen hurriedly clasped his fists and saluted, and said: "The prince is polite, it is all what the lower officials should do, but the prince is busy running around, and the lower officials are ashamed, and they deserve the praise of the prince." ”

Chu Haoyu didn't say any more polite words, and after a short silence, he opened his mouth and said: "First of all, the change in Qi'an, Huainan Dao is already panicked, and the fall of the Zheng family has involved five Taishou, I'm afraid that everyone is in danger." Lord Li, please handle this matter properly, don't disappoint this king and the saint. ”
