Yan Hong didn't expect that for the sake of party struggle and to make money, Liu Cai would not hesitate to risk national defense, and he also had a strong voice, saying that even if something went wrong, it could be pushed to the head of the political //// enemy. He was already secretly angry in his heart, and said in his mouth: "However, if the food of the Nine Sides is really insufficient, it is not only Wang Chen who is unlucky, right?" If Kuten Khan drove straight in and repeated the story of Gengxu, the ancestors would not be able to escape the blame. ”

Liu Cai said confidently: "Otherwise, the virtuous nephew doesn't know, now the Tartars are divided into two parts, the east and the west, and the Kuten in the east is not the same as the one in the west." He was driven out of the royal court by his uncle Alta, and moved eastward here, with an unstable foundation and a weak army. Even if the pass is broken, it is nothing more than plundering some food and rations, and then retreating. He neither dared nor had the strength to go straight to Beijing for this long drive, and the virtuous nephew did not need to worry about it. ”

Yan Hong had no choice but to say: "This matter is very involved, and the little nephew doesn't dare to take responsibility, not to mention that there is a deputy envoy on this trip, and there are many constraints, the little nephew is only afraid that this matter will not be able to cover up, and there will be a big mess at that time, so it is better to avoid it." ”

Liu Cai saw that Yan Hong was not interested in this matter, and he had too many scruples, so he couldn't force this nephew to take risks with him, so he had to give up, and returned to the front hall with Yan Hong to eat and drink, talking and laughing on the surface, as if nothing happened. However, at this time, in Yan Hong's heart, there were already 10,000 grass and mud horses roaring past.

Before Yan Hong came, he was prepared to meet a group of corrupt officials under his family in Jinan. Originally, he just wanted to go through the motions, respond to the story, and go home early. And the officials who commit crimes in their own hands will cut down a batch, and they can also give an order to Banzai.

It's just that I never expected that the situation in Jinan was much more complicated than I thought. For example, the matter of this Spring Appreciation Pavilion, he saw this prefect. openly connived at his son. Do such a thing to force good people to become prostitutes. I couldn't help but be angry in my heart, thinking that who is not greedy for money and lustful, but this official in Jinan is too ugly.

Now Yan Hong listened to the governor of a province, and his own Shibo was even more dumbfounded under the pretext of stealing and selling military rations for profit, and even taking the opportunity to frame the governor of Jiliao.

He originally thought. In this Shandong rebellion, Liu Cai was either limited in talent and not enough to deal with the scene, or he waited and saw and did not go all out. None of this matters. But now it seems that the other party, Qian Feng and others are clearly sitting back and watching the disaster spread, without making any efforts, adopting a laissez-faire attitude, and refusing to cooperate with the court's relief.

Moreover. Listening to Liu Cai's words, he actually wanted to sell the grain for money at this juncture. Combined with this, it can be inferred that the root cause of this so-called embarrassing situation of "no grain in the treasury and constant peace and emptiness" is not only due to a poor harvest, but also because the other party took advantage of the grain shortage to make a fortune and sold the grain for silver. The Shandong folk song that Sun Yuerong told him on the road does not seem to be the fiction of the people's wishful thinking. Yanmen was originally a nest of corruption, but in order to make money for himself, he forced millions of people into a desperate situation, which still made Yan Hong a little difficult to accept.

If these are just moral entanglements, then Liu Cai's attitude towards Outer Mongolia, the current number one enemy of the Ming Dynasty, completely made him angry. The so-called style problem is not a problem, and life mistakes are not mistakes. But if the butt is not right, the position is wrong, this is a big problem of first-class.

After Yan Hong crossed over, he found that he was staying in the environment of Yan Mansion, and he had already decided that he could tolerate corrupt officials and mediocre talents. But he will never tolerate traitors. Even if Wang Chen is not quite right with Yan Shifan, he supervises the border defense, which is the Great Wall that defends the northern frontier of the Ming Dynasty. If you want to clean up Wang Chen, you can just go to prison with a fabricated crime, how can you use the method of giving rotten medicine to the border guards? If the Mongols came in this way, even if they didn't attack the city of Beijing, how many ordinary people would want their wives to be separated and their homes ruined? And the country of the Ming Dynasty can withstand a few such tosses?

What's even more terrifying is that when Liu Cai said this, he was actually understatement, as natural as going out to a prostitution. Listening to his tone, even if these words stabbed Yan Shifan, he Liu Cai was not afraid. Yan Hong couldn't help but suspect that he was coming from an old man: Your old man is said to be one of the three great heroes of the Ming Dynasty today, how can you tolerate such nonsense by your henchmen? If the skin does not exist, the hair will be attached, don't you even understand this truth? Overplayed, overplayed!

is a good Yan Hong, not saying it, but secretly ruthless in his heart: Originally, Lao Tzu just wanted to get rid of Chang Zhixiao, and he didn't want Liu Yingshi to be so bold and reckless. If this person is not removed, sooner or later he will be a serious harm to me, and he will not tolerate such things as eating and crawling. In that case, no matter how much you do me good, I will not allow you! It's time to clean up the portal for Daddy!

As for Daddy's instructions when he came, I'm sorry, Dad, it's not that the child is disobedient, it's really inappropriate for your old man to do this. If you connive at Liu Cai's trick, the Yan Mansion will also be destroyed. Yan Hong seems to understand a little why his father was beheaded in a few years in history.

It's just that Liu Cai is covering the sky in Shandong, and from the banquet, it seems that all the officials in Shandong have dealings with him, and Jinan is like an iron barrel operated by him, and he can't move it without permission. Let's make a false accusation first, and then make a plan.

Therefore, the banquet was still happy, and it was not until the third watch that the wine was dispersed. Liu Cai originally wanted to arrange for Yan Hongsu to stay in the governor's yamen, but Yan Hong insisted on returning to the inn with Sun Yuerong, but he had to rely on him.

Yan Hong returned to the inn and fell asleep. Sun Yuerong can't care about the joy of fish and water because of the doctor's advice. The next morning, Xi Tong waited for Yan Hong to get up before he came to report that there was a manager outside the door who asked to see him. Yan Hong thought to himself, this Wang Xuan seemed to be a key figure in Jinan, but after hearing what his housekeeper had to say, he asked him to come in.

When the manager came in, Yan Hong saw that this person was dressed in a green coat and a small hat, his face was like dried orange peel, and his wrinkles were stacked, and at first glance, he couldn't tell his real age. The snow-white goat's beard is very neatly trimmed, and his eyes are unusually bright.

As soon as the housekeeper saw Yan Hong, he first rushed to kowtow and salute, and reported his name, it was Wang Fu, the head of the Wang family.

After Wang Fu finished kowtowing, he got up and said: "Lord Qincha, after my lord returned to the house last night, he said that Lord Qincha came to Shandong to give relief, which is a great thing to help the people. How can such a living bodhisattva with immeasurable merit live in this small inn? didn't lose the face of the court, and it also showed that our Shandong gentlemen don't know how to behave. Not to mention. There are so many girls around the eldest master. Crowded in this inn. It's not very convenient either. My lord has a few courtyards in the city, although it is simple, but fortunately it is still clean, please enjoy the light and drive, and my lord will do his best. ”

Yan Hong snorted and said: "When this official is here, he wants to disturb the people, I'm afraid it's not very convenient for this matter, right?" Yes? You see, this side is also in Jinan. If he were to join me, it wouldn't be a good deal. ”

Wang Fu's old face was already wrinkled, and he smiled at this time, like a blooming chrysanthemum, and he said carefully: "Why did the old man Qincha say this?" My lord has the best friends, and the officials in Jinan Mansion are all good to my lord, and no one will chew his tongue. is that Fang Zhizhi, his house is also a courtyard of my master, how could he go to you? ”

Yan Hong pretended to be pretentious and excused himself again. That's when he agreed. Wang Fu kowtowed again and said, "Since you have been appreciated by the master, please start driving immediately." The sooner you move over, the sooner you settle down. For this move, the eldest lord only needs to tell the lords to stare at the things and not disperse, and they have their own small arrangements. Yan Hong smiled: "There is Mr. Lao." So he told the crowd to pack up their things and prepare to move.

That Wang Fu arranged it very carefully, and more than a dozen carriages had already been prepared outside the door, which were specially designed for those Qinglou women to ride, so as not to have the risk of showing up. The rest of the carts, porters, and even the ropes and bars that carry the cages are all available. And Yan Hong's group originally came in civilian clothes, and they didn't have much luggage. It didn't take long to arrive in Jinan, and it was too late to search. So in less than half an hour, all the belongings were packed up and went out together.

The courtyard of Wang Xuan, not very far from the governor's yamen, is a large mansion that counts into the courtyard before and after, and occupies the north side of a vacant land, with good feng shui and good traffic. Yan Hong was born rich and noble, and he didn't pay much attention to this kind of mansion, but Sun Yuerong couldn't help but secretly speak: since she was in Feihu Mountain, she also saw many places for the mansions of ordinary rich people in the countryside, and they were not as grand as this. This is just a courtyard, so how should Wang Xuan's own home be?

When I entered the house, I saw more than ten servants and eight pretty maids waiting here. Seeing Yan Hong coming, he hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed, "Welcome to Master Qincha." ”

Wang Fu said on the side: "These people are the subordinates of this house, cleaning the yard and doing some heavy work on weekdays. If the lord sees that they are pleasing to the eye, he will leave them behind, and all the rice, grain, and silver money required will be paid by my lord. If it doesn't suit your heart, or if you don't listen to your orders, just kill it, don't care. If you don't like them, it's okay to fire them. Now there is a shortage of everything in this Jinan Mansion, that is, there is no shortage of people, and it takes no effort to recruit a few subordinates. ”

Yan Hong nodded and said, "Master Wang is thoughtful. In that case, let them stay. Since they are the old people of Master Wang, if they have no food for me, it will not be good. What's more, it is better to use raw than cooked, and outsiders are not as familiar with the situation as they are. ”

That Wang Fu leaned into Yan Hong's ear again and said: "Master Qincha, although there are many beautiful girls around you, most of them come out of the Spring Appreciation Pavilion, I'm afraid it's not complete." These girls have not yet been used by my master. If the lord has a crush on which, just give orders. Whoever doesn't listen will break his leg. ”

Yan Hong looked at him and grinned: "You old man, you are really a person, and the master likes it very much." Go back and tell your family that Ben Qin is very satisfied with his gift. If anyone troubles him in the future, he can come to me and stand up for him. Come, take fifty taels of silver tickets, and give tea to the chief manager. ”

Mr. Wang took the silver ticket, sneered secretly in his heart, but pretended to be flattering on his face, nodded his head, and thanked him again and again. Yan Hong's side followed, in addition to the more than ten relatives he brought with him, as well as dozens of brocade clothes guarded by civilian clothes before, plus more than 30 rescued women, adding up to nearly 100 people, they were led by the subordinates to recognize the way and divide the room. Fortunately, this courtyard is very luxurious, so the people who double it will not be unable to live.

Yan Hong stood in the courtyard by himself, looking around with his hands behind his back. Sun Yuerong took the opportunity to sneak to Yan Hong's side and said, "Yan Hong, I don't think something is right with these people. Those few family members seem to know kung fu. ”

At this time, the golden jade girl walked in front of her, Yan Hong's eyes seemed to be glued to Jin Yu's body, staring at the upper chest and lower buttocks, but he whispered in his mouth: "What, the people of Shandong are still martial arts, is there no normal kung fu?" ”

Sun Yuerong said angrily: "Kung fu is not the same as having kung fu. These family members are obviously serious practitioners, and with the Yan Feng Yan Fu around you, I am afraid that they may not be able to rise above them. And those little goblins, you have to be careful. The old man surnamed Wang said that they were all little girls, but they didn't make do with it in front of your eyes, so they obviously sent it to the tiger's mouth, and I don't think they were at ease. ”

The corners of Yan Hong's mouth turned up, making a lewd smile, but he sighed lightly: "Yuerong, what you said is that this Wang Xuan is really not simple. He welcomed us into this house, not just stammering, but probably still having a heart of surveillance. It's just that I don't know what role he sings in this big drama in Jinan. You can notice something is wrong, and that's good. Just don't show it, and don't mention it to anyone other than me. You have to be restrained. ”

Although Sun Yuerong has no scheming, she is also a character rolling in the green forest, and she has already understood at this time, how can Yan Hong not know that these house slaves and maids are all eyeliner left by Wang Xuan? But as long as these people are driven away, then Wang Xuan will also know that Yan Hong has taken precautions against himself. Therefore, deliberately not breaking it is just to let the other party pass on the message that Yan Hong wants them to deliver.

When she was in the green forest, she used to be a straightforward slasher, which was better than using her brain, but it was not her longest. Now that I think that what I have to face in front of me is an unfathomable black and white method, I can't help but feel a sense of confusion. However, looking at Yan Hong, who was still calm in front of him, Sun Yuerong was relieved again. In charge of him, I only protect the enemy in front of me, and the rest is arranged by him.
