"Please also make a bow, humble Ruan Dacheng and ask to see Wei Guogong."

At the same time, Ruan Dacheng wanted to take out a piece of silver and give it to the family member who was blocking the car, but when he touched it in his arms, he found that he didn't have a penny on his body, so he had to take a jade pendant he carried with him and stuff it into the hand of the family Ding. This jade pendant is made of the finest Khotanese seeds, and its price is not one hundred and eighty taels, and it is a last resort to make a gift to him.

Although Jia Ding didn't know how much this jade was worth, he also knew that it was by no means comparable to three or five taels of silver, so he immediately smiled again, and only said what he said disappointed Ruan Dacheng.

"The villain told Master Ruan the truth, you really can't see Wei Guogong today, and the villain really can't be the master of this matter." At the same time, he had the momentum to push the jade pendant over, "No merit will not be punished, and the villain will not dare to be ...... if Master Ruan rewards the villain."

Hearing these words, Ruan Dacheng also felt a chill in his heart, and Wei Guogong avoided it, which confirmed his strict nature in this matter. Seeing that the family was still pretending, obviously wanting it very much, and pretending to be disgusting without merit, he really wanted to take the jade pendant back and let this person reveal his true form. However, despite the heavy mind and reason, Ruan Dacheng's thinking has always been firmly occupied, and he laughed, "Take it!" What Ruan sent out, how can there be a reason to come back! ”

When the family heard this, he stuffed the jade pendant into his arms, and bowed again.

"Master Xie Ruan's reward!"

Ruan Dacheng rode a horse and wandered on the wide stone road of Nanjing City, and it was only then that his family came over belatedly. This also can't blame them, what is prepared for Ruan Dacheng is a good horse that is one in a million, and the others are just ordinary horses, how can they keep up.

"Let's go, go home!"

The family members didn't dare to say much, thinking that the master's affairs were over, so they went home, and returned to the mansion with Ruan Dacheng one by one. Halfway through, Ruan Dacheng suddenly saw a thick smoke in the distance, which seemed to be a sign of walking water. After a moment's hesitation, he asked left and right.

"Who's in the city and who's out of the water? Can someone save it? ”

"Back to the master, it's the water in the tendon alley, the whole alley is almost half burned, Ying Tianfu Yin just passed, and he was angry when he saw it, and the villain who burned it first didn't know very well. If the lord wants to know, the villain will inquire......"

"No need!"

Ruan Dacheng stopped the family from flattering him expressionlessly, he knew very well that Huang Zongxi's "Bulletin" newspaper office was in the Muscle Alley, maybe the fire started from his house. I secretly scolded in my heart that I deserved to be happy, but after all, there was an inexplicable uneasiness that lingered in my heart.

After returning to the house, the old servant was already waiting in the mansion, and Ruan Dacheng invited him into the study to talk secretly, until the two sat opposite each other, he took off all his disguises, and spread out on the back of the chair with a withered expression. Only a heavy sigh!

"Big things go!"

This is not an unfounded worry. Several important officials who are deeply involved with him Ruan Dacheng on weekdays have all avoided them today, and even a fool can guess that something is wrong!

The old servant also looked uneasy, and he didn't know how to comfort his master for a while, and at this time, the shape was indeed extremely bad. In the early years of Chongzhen, his own lord was convicted of being a eunuch, which is well known, but people also know that their lord and the eunuch party are not the same thing, but they have suffered from the pond fish that some people have taken the opportunity to fight against dissidents. Therefore, he was able to save the huge family assets and not be raided.

But today, Jiangnan Shizi brought up the old things again, and even had the intention to beat his master into a remnant of the eunuch party and escape punishment. This matter is not just as simple as the merits, seeing that the matter is getting bigger and bigger, once the imperial court intervenes, in order to show that it will spare no effort to punish the eunuchs and calm the grievances of the Jiangnan scholars, it is bound to use their own master as a scapegoat.

Although the old servant thought so, he didn't want to analyze it to Ruan Dacheng, in fact, he knew that even if he didn't say it, with his master's intelligence, he would definitely be able to think through it. Until now, I can only use four words to describe Ruan Dacheng's situation, "powerless to return to the sky"!

But I heard Ruan Dacheng sigh on his back, "Why is this, why is this here?" ”

Obviously, things are a good situation and omen, why did he become a street rat in a blink of an eye, and everyone shouted and beat him? It was only at this time that he had some retrospectiveness, there must be a black hand behind this matter, maybe, maybe......

This may be the answer Ruan Dacheng is willing to admit anyway, he has been ignoring Li Xin's cunzài, he looks down on this kind of vulgar martial artist from the bottom of his heart, maybe they have a few brushes in the war, but this kind of wit work is not as good as his own. Now it seems that I am a little wrong!

Ruan Dacheng didn't believe that those stupid pigs who had been playing with themselves would grasp the timing so well......

Suddenly, Ruan Dacheng's body suddenly shook, and then a strange smile appeared on his face, and then he laughed indulgently. This frightened the old servant beside him, wasn't his master stimulated and crazy?

Unexpectedly, Ruan Dacheng suddenly laughed again, and said in a low voice: "Send a letter to Brother Shen quickly, and let him redeem all the rice coupons that Zuo Menggeng took, don't be embarrassed." In the meantime, if there is a profit or loss, it will be borne by someone from me! ”

The voice was as calm and capable as ever, but when it fell into the ears of the old servant, he really couldn't believe it, so he stammered a little bit to confirm: "Could it be, let Zuo Mengeng go?" ”

"That's right!"

The two words stood out categorically from Ruan Dacheng's mouth!

The old servant was puzzled by his master's change of day, which was also a strange thing that he had never had with Ruan Dacheng for decades, so he wanted to confirm again what made his master change so much. Ruan Dacheng didn't wait for the old servant to speak, and had already taken the initiative to speak.

"You've been with me for decades, and I'm not going to hide anything from you. Tell me, since the Chongzhen Dynasty, I have been tossing for many years, so what's going on? ”

The old servant said without thinking: "I am re-entering!" ”

"Not bad! It's just for these four words, but from today onwards, these hopes have all been ruined by those stupid pigs who have been restored, and they are completely ruined! Since I ascended the throne, I have spared no effort to crack down on the remnants of the eunuch party, how can I have another day to emerge? ”

The old servant's heart suddenly beat violently, and he seemed to smell an unusual smell from Ruan Dacheng's words, which was ostensibly saying that he had no hope of entering the office, but on the other hand, it seemed that it could be understood that Chongzhen was hopeless if he did not die, but what if Chongzhen died?

These are all speculations of the old servant, he didn't dare to really ask them, and in vain he caused trouble for himself and the head of the family!

……

Ying Tianfu Yin He Kegang was already anxious, and today was definitely the darkest day for him since he became an official in Nanjing. First of all, the Fushe gathered a large number of scholars to petition and make trouble in Guozijian, and then Nancheng Tendon Lane was hit by fire, and more than half of the houses in the entire alley were burned, including the "Gazette" newspaper, which is famous for staying in the capital and celebrities!

He Kegang is not stupid, he has vaguely guessed that the fire in Muscle Lane should be related to the petition of the Fushe to issue the "Public Disclosure of Staying in the Capital to Prevent Chaos", and the "Communiqué" has clearly supported it, and its chief writer Huang Zongxi is the backbone of the Fushe. As a result, the water in the Tendon Lane is not accidental.

When he learned of the fire in Muscle Lane, He Kegang was at the home of Xiong Mingyu, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry in Nanjing. He wanted to have an idea with Xiong Mingyu, but who knew that this Xiong Shangshu took advantage of the internal urgency and urinated. He Kegang knew very well that as Ying Tianfu Yin, he could not escape the blame for such a catastrophe as a fire. Moreover, the imperial court has always been responsible for dealing with the fires in the city, and when he arrived at the mouth of the Muscle Alley in a hurry, he could already feel the scorching heat. Looking at the whole alley, it has been plunged into a sea of smoke and fire, and not only how many houses are submerged in it.

He Kegang's heart was cold, if the fire could not be controlled, not only would the black yarn not be protected, but he was afraid that the head under the black yarn might also move at any time. Thinking of this, he only felt a burst of resentment rise in his chest.

In the final analysis, these moths are all Ruan Dacheng's troubles, how can he accompany him to eat and hang? His reaction was also extremely fast, a slight chill appeared on his face, and he muttered, "Since you are unkind, don't blame me for being unjust..."

Until this moment, the first thing He Kegang thought of was not how to put out the fire, but simply explained to the soap subordinates, at any cost, demolishing the house and demolishing the house, creating a fireproof isolation belt, and controlling the fire...... Then this Ying Tianfu Yin rode away on horseback.

Where is the soap who left a lawsuit, and smiled bitterly. This southern city is full of rich gentry and magnates, how can a mere soap subordinate have the responsibility and courage to demolish their house?

As soon as Sun Ji got up in the morning, he felt that his left eyelid was fluttering, and he was a little flustered. Before the time passed, sure enough, a family member came to report, and the celebrities of Nanjing Shilin issued a petition for "Staying in the Capital to Prevent Chaos and Public Disclosure" in Guozijian. Sun Jian immediately understood that this was an action against Ruan Dacheng, but he was afraid that there was still Li Xin's shadow behind him. He was amazed again and again by this act. Who knew that it was not too late, and after noon, another family came to report that there was a fire in Nancheng Muscle Lane, and the fire was not charged, and there was a tendency to burn bigger and bigger!

A fire in Muscle Lane? He subconsciously thought of the "Gazette", the newspaper office of the "Gazette" is in the Muscle Lane, could the fire be related to the "Gazette"? He suddenly thought of the scholars who were petitioning in the Guozijian today.

However, at this moment, Sun Ji has no time to explore the cause of the fire, just from his home can already see the smoke rising in the distance, he knows that the fire is not small, if it is not extinguished in time, the precedent of the entire city being burned down is not nothing. As the governor of Nanzhili, he naturally can't sit idly by. At this moment, Ying Tianfu Yin He Kegang handed over a name and asked to see him.

And the first thing He Ke said when he first saw Sun Jiao was, "There are gangsters in the city who are arsoning and causing chaos, and the lower officials dare not be arbitrary, so I implore the ministry to preside over the overall situation!" ”
