(PS: The first update is served!) Chapter 2 strives to come out before half past eleven! ）

A few days later, seven days after Lao Shangshu was buried, the prince went south to Jiangnan County.

This is really a big deal, and many high-ranking officials in Huaiyangdao are glad that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is finally gone.

During this period of time, in addition to meeting with various officials day after day, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince did not have the same encounter as some people in the Wang family thought that he could have an encounter with the Oiran of the Queqiao Fairy and the girl who was not as good as a chance encounter, so naturally there were no good stories such as the prince's romantic and noble way, drunk and lying on the knees of beautiful women.

The crown prince did a great thing, that is, he was observing the yamen to gather all the officials and read out the holy decree of the Jin Emperor in public, that is, the edict that summoned Wang Zhen as the secretary of the Great Jin Dynasty.

It was precisely because of this edict that the prince's departure from Chuzhou City became a major event.

Officials at all levels prepared generous gifts and came to celebrate, although Wang Zhen turned them away, no one felt discouraged.

Huaiyang Dao is about to produce the second Shangshu Lord, or the father and son Shangshu, which is definitely a good story.

Even the officials who were suppressed by Xie Shence for the crime of rebellion some time ago have also become active again at this time.

Naturally, some people in the Wang family took the opportunity to become arrogant again, shouting that it was a big crime to thank Shence for not attending Lao Shangshu's funeral, but they were all suppressed by Wang Zhen.

Things have come to this point, and Wang Zhen also knows that he has lost the first move, and since then he has lost the most favorable opportunity to deal with Xie Shence, but at this moment he doesn't care at all.

Huaiyang Dao was still retained by him a large number of officials loyal to him, Huaishang was still in his hands, and Wang Dai also expressed his obedience. Even after he left, Emperor Jin would have a big change of blood in Huaiyang Dao, and he could guarantee that the future Huaiyang Dao would still be the Huaiyang Dao of the Wang family.

The only variable may exist in Jiangnan County.

......

......

Xie was able to move around on his own and was recovering well. Most of his injuries were traumatic, but at that time, the consumption was so great that he collapsed, and he recovered a lot after a period of rest. At this time, except for a few deep wounds on his back and arms, everything else has basically healed.

After three days of recuperation, Xie Shence said goodbye to Wang Jiehua, took a team of horsemen, and chased the prince south.

Wang Jiehua was originally going to go with him, but Xie Shence refused, and Wang Ding didn't want his daughter to travel far at this time, so he persuaded Xie Yun, and the two worked together to keep Wang Jiehua.

Xie Shence stood at the bow of the boat, looked at the Yangtze River moat, crossed Jinling through Zhenjiang, and then took the waterway to the south, walked for two days, and then arrived in Wuxi slowly.

Compared with four years ago, Wuxi is now more lively and prosperous.

The successive wars of the Great Jin Dynasty did not bring much trauma here, but because the country needed a large amount of materials, it stimulated the production of Jiangnan County, which not only digested the large number of goods hoarded by the merchants, but also further promoted circulation. Although there are many problems such as soaring prices, it is a rare place of peace compared to other places.

Xie Shence did not enter the city, but saw great vitality from the merchants and people who came and went from all directions.

Turmoil is not an opportunity. The wars between the west and north of the Great Jin Dynasty made the economic development of the east and south even further.

Of course, this is from an official point of view. This is also what he wants to say in the secret letter he is about to present to Emperor Jin. If you want to thank Shence in his own words, those poor people who know that the prince is coming, the government will clean up and relocate, is what he wants to see the most.

In the past month or so, how many families have been forced to move to the deep mountains and old forests, how many cases have been forcibly suppressed by the government, how many people have been detained in prisons and will not see the light of day, how many officials have taken the opportunity to break down, how many good families have accepted, how many concubines have been accepted, and how many maids have been accepted.

Xie Shence was not going to write these things down on the fold, but he wanted Emperor Jin to know something.

That night, Ti rode into the city, Xie Shence disguised himself as a rich son, and rested in an inn twenty miles outside the city, accompanied only by Yang Zongsi and two Ti Cai, pretending to be his entourage.

Xie Shence came out of the room, and saw a white figure fluttering out, and then disappeared, judging from the back of that person, it looked like a woman.

Xie Shence found that many diners in the hall were looking out with their necks saved, and a few female guests even glared at their men with their eyes, which made Xie Shence smile.

"What are you looking at? What girl has made so many people lose their souls? After Xie Shence sat down, he teased the two horsemen.

One of the two horsemen is called Zhuo Fourteen, and the other is called Mao Xiaosan, Zhuo Fourteen is busy serving tea to Xie Shence, Mao Xiaosan said: "Hui Gongzi, I don't know which girl it is, I just heard the next table say that a big family has lived here for several days, like doing business." Although she covers her face when she goes in and out, her figure is surprisingly good, and her voice is also very beautiful! ”

As he spoke, Mao Xiaosan lowered his voice and said, "It is said that because the silver cannot be turned, the owner of this inn also exempted her from the room money for a few days." ”

Mao Xiaosan said, there was a smell of lewdness and in his suppressed laughter, and Xie Shence knew with his heels that this guy must have thought of something like a bad deal.

Hey? Why should I use it?

Xie Shence shook his head and didn't think about these things. At this time, Mr. Yang also came down, and not long after, the dishes ordered by the four of them were complete, and they quickly finished dinner around the small square table.

It's hot in summer, Wuxi is not Langya Mountain, there is no coolness, thinking that there is nothing to do, Xie Shence asked the three of them to prepare horses and prepare to go out for a walk.

Before it was dark, the four of them came to the river and enjoyed the cool river breeze, which was very pleasant.

Xie Shence has the urge to write a poem.

However, as soon as this interest was raised, it was interrupted by the sound of "popping".

Xie Shence looked at Zhuo Shishi and Mao Xiaosan with dissatisfaction.

Mao Xiaosan said with a bitter face: "Son, the little ones recruit mosquitoes......

Xie Shence's mood suddenly disappeared. So the four of them prepared to return to the inn.

It's just that Xie Shence listened to the sound of gurgling water, and thought that he had been a little uncomfortable in the past few days, so he said, "You go and wait on the side of the road." ”

Mr. Yang knew what Xie Shence was going to do, so he said, "Childe, ...... you were injured last time you fell from your horse."

Xie Shence was stunned, thought for a while and said, "Then forget it." ”

The four then left the river.

What Xie Shence didn't know was that after the few of them left, there was a small waterhole under the river beach they were sitting on just now, and there was a person in it.

The little one looks good, huh......

A splash of white slowly rose from the pool, and the tall figure was immediately concealed by the white dress.

If Xie Shence knew that there was a mermaid in the place where he was about to jump just now, I am afraid that he would regret strangling Mr. Yang to death.

"Miss, that boy seems to be staying in an inn with us."

"Well, Miss Ben knows."

"Miss likes him?"

"Huh! Xiao Nizi is hairy, spring? ”

"Oops, don't scratch me, Miss, ......"

The laughter of silver bells is particularly crisp in the small river where night is about to fall.

Xie Shence returned to the inn and saw a swaggering young man sitting in the lobby of the inn.

The reason why it can be seen at a glance that he is arrogant is because the young man not only shows his unformed Adam's apple, looks at people with his nostrils, but also wears an extremely slender "willow sword" around his waist (the decorative effect is greater than the actual combat, flashy), and there are several five big and three thick men standing behind him, and the arms of the men are bulging, thinking that they are carrying murder weapons. The innkeeper shrunk to the side and did not dare to make a sound.

The young man, who originally heard the sound of walking and wanted to stand up, saw that it was four men, so he snorted in disgust, changed his nostrils, and continued to raise his toes.

Xie Shence laughed secretly in his heart and said, "Shopkeeper, make four suppers and send them to our room later." The money goes up and settles it. ”

The shopkeeper heard someone talking to him, raised his head and said, "Guest officer, it's not that the small shop doesn't do business, it's just tonight...... Some special ones may not be able to do so. ”

Xie Shence glanced at the room strangely.

Mao Xiaosan immediately stepped forward and said, "Why is this? Today is not missing your money, how can we care about our first guests? Hurry up and do it! If my son-in-law can't eat fresh meat buns and drink chilled sour plum juice, I won't be able to sue you if I go to the city tomorrow! ”

The shopkeeper looked at Mao Xiaosan, and then at Xie Shence, in a dilemma.

He knew that these guests were generous, and they asked for three upper rooms as soon as they came, and they secretly overcharged two coins of silver, and the other party didn't notice it. I think it is also the son of a large family who went out to travel, looking at the surname, I am afraid that it is not a certain house of the Huaiyang Daoxie family. This kind of son of a family whose status in the family is not too high is the most headache, and if he is happy, the silver is not a problem, and if he is unhappy, he can poke out any trouble according to his temper.

Just when the store was in a dilemma, the young man snorted coldly again.

"What's the matter? Dare to sue Ben Gongzi's shop? ”

Xie Shence was surprised, it turned out that this store was his, no wonder the shopkeeper stood behind him and didn't dare to breathe.

A little guy said: "Where did the young man come from, he dared to say such a big thing in Wuxi, don't you know that most of the inns thirty miles away from Wuxi City are my son-in-law's?" ”

Xie Shence said with a smile: "I really don't know." My son is just a guest, what's wrong with wanting a supper? Do you still have to know your son-in-law to be able to eat? ”

The young man said coldly: "Get out, this boy won't care, otherwise take a step slower, break your dog's legs, and let you have no teeth to eat!" ”

Mao Xiaosan was furious and scolded: "Where did the savage come from! Dare to say such things to my son-in-law! Don't you know my son-in-law's reputation in Huaiyang Dao? Actually rushed to pick up the tiger's whiskers? ”

The young man was annoyed by Mao Xiaosan's savage, so he stood up with a bang, pulled out the saber at his waist, pointed at Xie Shence and scolded: "Bastard! How do you discipline your servants? Dare to insult this son! Dare not duel! My son wants you to look good! ”

Xie Shence almost burst out laughing.

The duel was still promoted by him back then, and then it became popular. But according to the aristocratic ceremony, although this kind of four-person duel without distinction between life and death does not require the approval of the government, white gloves or something are indispensable.

Looking at the young man who still had a faint fluff on his lips in front of him such an informal duel invitation, Xie Shence was a little angry.

"Where's your white glove? Without white gloves, Ben Gongzi will not accept it! ”

Xie Shence said something serious, and Mr. Yang almost laughed.

When Xie Shence motioned to Mao Xiaosan to speak with his eyes, Mr. Yang knew that the situation tonight was deliberately picked out by Xie Shence.

How can anyone just go out for a walk after dinner and come back with a supper? Or is it a strange combination of meat buns and iced sour plum soup?

This young man, I'm afraid I'm going to be unlucky tonight. Mr. Yang guessed maliciously in his heart.
