Wen Zhenmeng finally replied.

Zheng Xunrui specially wrote a letter to Wen Zhenmeng, introducing many practices after Chen Yaoyan became the prefect of Qingyang Mansion, of course, they were all analyzed from a positive point of view, as the governor of Yansui, Zheng Xunrui thought that he had learned a lot from Chen Yaoyan, and now he wanted to see how effective Chen Yaoyan's actions in Qingyang Mansion were, and then Yan'an Mansion and Yulin Border Town could follow and learn, of course, Zheng Xunrui also made a clear request, that is, Chen Yaoyan must be in Qingyang Mansion for at least two years or more.

Zheng Xunrui did not write a letter to the emperor for the time being, he needs to get Wen Zhenmeng's reply, and then see if it is written to the emperor, in fact, the letter written to Wen Zhenmeng, according to Wen Zhenmeng's character, will definitely report to the emperor, Wen Zhenmeng is very pedantic in this regard, and it can also be said to be very principled.

Zheng Xunrui looked at it very seriously, looking at Wen Zhenmeng's letter, a smile appeared on his face, Wen Zhenmeng finally did not come home pedantic, understood the meaning of his letter, and the attitude in the letter was very clear, that is, in a short period of time, it was impossible for Chen Yaoyan to leave Qingyang Mansion, at least for more than a year.

Such a long time is enough, and when the time comes, he can let Chen Yaoyan survive but not die.

When Xu Wanghua came in, Zheng Xunrui handed him Wen Zhenmeng's letter.

"This is an adult's family letter, and it's not suitable for my subordinates."

"Mr. Xu, do you think there may be a family affair between me and my grandfather?"

Xu Wanghua was stunned for a moment, tasted something from this sentence, then shook his head, with a wry smile on his face, took the letter, and looked at it carefully.

Xu Wanghua quickly read the letter.

"My lord, Lord Wen has sent a letter, and his subordinates expect that it will be impossible for Lord Chen to leave Qingyang Mansion in a short time, I'm afraid Lord Chen himself doesn't know yet, and he is still gearing up to do a big job, leaving a mess and leaving."

"Chen Yaoyan, don't think about leaving Qingyang Mansion, hmph, take the life and death of the people to satisfy his own dirty thoughts, such officials, if I don't represent the imperial court to rectify it well, then don't serve as the governor of Yansui."

"What the lord said is, but the subordinates still have to remind that it is best for the adults to write to the emperor, and the emperor should also know some matters of Qingyang Mansion in detail, although Lord Chen cannot write a recital directly to the emperor, but someone will always send the recital to the emperor."

"What you said is right, I will write a recital to the emperor, and the wording should be paid attention to, this grandfather of mine, I'm afraid that I will report this matter to the emperor a long time ago, if I don't write it right away, it will be difficult to explain in the future."

This was originally a bit of a self-deprecating remark, but neither Zheng Xunrui nor Xu Wanghua laughed.

"Mr. Xu, your identity is special, after coming to the governor's yamen, there are not many people in contact, and the officials of Fuzhou County almost don't know your identity, I want to ask you to go to Qingyang Mansion to see, what is the situation over there, if you find anything abnormal, write to me as much as possible, or rush back quickly."

"Okay, the subordinates will set off tomorrow, in fact, the adults don't say it, the subordinates are also ready to make a request, after all, you need to see a lot of situations before you can make the most accurate judgment, and the subordinates also want to see what this Lord Chen thinks."

"It's okay to leave tomorrow, it's April soon, and the collection of taxes is about to begin, you go to various places in Qingyang Mansion, and you just happen to encounter the taxation matters, see how the local government operates, and see how Chen Yaoyan asks for it."

Zheng Xunrui from his own soldiers, sent five people to follow Xu Wanghua, it should be said that Xu Wanghua went down to investigate the situation, basically will not encounter too much danger, there is basically no problem of zài liukou in Yansui, even bandits are very few, because there is no place in these places, coupled with the courage of Zheng Jiajun, everyone is clear, if you go to Yansui to make trouble, it is basically equivalent to looking for death.

There can't be too many people around Xu Wanghua, there are too many people, and the team is huge, which will soon attract the attention of the outside world, so don't think about being able to investigate the following matters, and besides, such an arrangement means that there is some distrust of Chen Yaoyan, and the distrust is true, but don't let Chen Yaoyan find out, so as not to leave a lot of sequelae.

Xu Wanghua immediately went to prepare, he knew the responsibility of this trip.

Zheng Jinhong quickly entered the wing room and handed over the sorted out letter to Zheng Xunrui.

Zheng Xunrui looked very carefully, Zheng Jinhong stood aside and waited silently, if there is something arranged, or there is a question to ask, Zheng Xunrui will speak quickly, there is nothing to do, Zheng Xunrui will also say it clearly.

After a quarter of an hour, Zheng Xunrui raised his head and spoke.

"Jin Hong, are you thinking about finding out which person in the capital Chen Yaoyan wrote to?"

"Young master, my subordinates really want to find out who is behind Chen Yaoyan."

Zheng Xunrui shook his head slightly, and quickly spoke.

"This matter, don't do it for the time being, it's not particularly difficult to find the person behind Chen Yaoyan, but even if you know, what can you do, when there is no way to deal with the other party, I don't know if it's better, otherwise it will completely alarm the other party, and the pressure we face will be even greater."

When facing Zheng Jinhong, Zheng Xunrui basically explained patiently, and he didn't tire of it, Zheng Jinhong's progress was also very fast, from ignorance at the beginning, to gradual keenness.

"Young master, the subordinates feel that it is good to be able to grasp who the core figure of the other party is, and the subordinates will be very careful."

"Jin Hong, I know you will be very careful, but you must know that the other party's calculations have started many years ago, if they can't make adequate preparations, how can they act rashly, since they are well prepared, then they will plug a loophole and prevent us from discovering the flaws, if we can easily investigate and deal with the people behind Chen Yaoyan, then they are not vulnerable."

Zheng Jinhong nodded, but there was still an unconvinced look on his face.

"Jinhong, we can't make any moves at the moment, in case the other party finds out, then we are likely to lose all our efforts, now we have started to fight back, these counterattack actions are also very secretive, even after the other party knows, it is impossible to detect, so we can't act rashly now."

When Zheng Xunrui said this, Zheng Jinhong finally understood the meaning.

"Young master, my subordinates understand, my subordinates will not continue to probe Chen Yaoyan's letters."

"Very good, to do such a thing, you must take it step by step, the people behind Chen Yaoyan, regardless of their ability, must be highly valued, we must first cut off the henchmen around him, so that the people behind him can take the initiative to jump out."

When Zheng Jinhong stood up and was about to leave, Zheng Xunrui spoke again.

"Mr. Xu is going to go to various places in Fuzhou County under the jurisdiction of Qingyang Mansion tomorrow to check the situation, you can notify the post stations in various parts of Qingyang Mansion and secretly assist Mr. Xu, but the post station itself cannot reveal his identity, and you have to emphasize to the post station that the more times like this, the more you must keep your identity secret."

A big net has been slowly rolled out, although it is said that he has fought with the Liukou several times, but it is all external, these things are what Zheng Xunrui should do, and now he has finally begun to face the power in the court, doing these things should be a matter of the relatives and the enemy, but it is also something that must be done.

The reality is cruel, the Ming court is in internal and external difficulties, the Houjin Tartars in Liaodong, the rogues who ravaged Shaanxi, Shanxi, Henan, Sichuan, Huguang and other places, the continuous famines, the displaced people everywhere, seeing that the imperial court can not be maintained, has come to the edge of the cliff, the next step is to collapse, but the internal struggle within the imperial court is still in full swing, those Donglin party people who are sought after by some historical books, what they did at this time made Zheng Xunrui despised.

The situation in the north can no longer be maintained, the area of Nanzhili and Zhejiang, is still very rich, the Qinhuai River sings every night, the northern homeless people are everywhere, countless people die of cold and starvation, and the homeless people who cannot survive can only join the ranks of the Liukou.

But in this case, those so-called Donglin Party and Zhejiang Party, etc., are still proposing to hide the wealth from the people, and are still sparing no effort to maintain the property of southern scholars and merchants, and are still reducing trade taxes and increasing agricultural taxes.

Zheng Xunrui understood that although he and some adults in the imperial court, even the scholars and merchants in the south, had not yet had a direct confrontation, but this day would come sooner or later, and his inner concept of governing the country was to vigorously develop commerce and trade, collect a large number of taxes on commerce and trade, and vigorously reduce the burden on the peasants.

The power of the southern scholars and merchants is amazing, not to mention him Zheng Xunrui, I am afraid that the emperor is powerless to compete.

In troubled times, only iron and blood can be used, the existing order must be broken, and the new order is always created in blood and fire.

All kinds of ideas crossed through Zheng Xunrui's mind, but they were denied one by one, history is difficult to design, you can only take one step at a time, even if he is a person who crosses, he must follow the laws of history.

Thinking of the situation of the two-front battle faced by the imperial court, Zheng Xunrui couldn't help but smile bitterly, why didn't he face such a situation, there was no way to do some things, maybe in the future, when he faced off with the Liukou and the Houjin Tartar, he would have to prepare the dark arrows shot by the imperial court, this is the reality, if you can't adapt, then you will face the fate of being eliminated
