After the matter was completed, the statement was handed over to the sergeant of the express shop, after which the crowd gradually dispersed, and Governor Li also retreated to the back hall.

A staff member, Master Liu, greeted him and suggested with a worried face: "I have been traveling in Beijing for the past two years, and this Lord Qin Chafang was the main hall of Jingxian County at that time. I heard that although Lord Fang is very young, he is good at taking things by surprise and being very sophisticated.

From this point of view, I am afraid that this time the matter is not so simple, and Lord Fang's handling of official affairs should not be such an impetuous and arrogant and reckless manner. ”

Governor Li didn't care about Master Liu's suggestion, and said with a smile: "After dealing with each other a few times, I really don't see where Fang Qincha is sophisticated?"

But you don't lie if you think about it. Probably because this place is Suzhou Prefecture, not Jingshi, and the place is different, it is not adaptable. Or his help is thousands of miles away, and it won't work alone in Suzhou Mansion. ”

When Master Liu was in Beijing, he had personally heard and witnessed Fang Yingwu's deeds, and he still didn't feel right at the moment.

He still wanted to say something, but he heard the proprietor say again: "You can be more open-minded, even if you are reasonable, Fang Yingwu does hide the means, what can I lose?"

Even if the impeachment is unsuccessful, it is just unsuccessful, and it is impossible for Fang Yingwu to stay in Suzhou Mansion all the time. Taking a step back, can this official be worse than Zhishi. ”

Mr. Liu thought about it carefully and used almost all the assumptions, but he really couldn't think of any other means for Fang Qincha.

In the end, I could only comfort myself, probably because I was thinking too much. may be because Fang Yingwu was too successful in doing things in the past, and his heart was floating after smooth sailing for too long, and he couldn't settle down when he came to a new place. So he became arrogant.

In fact, I don't blame Governor Li for being careless, at this time, even Cai Kongmu, a party who knows the inside story, is very confused. Not to mention Governor Li.

But having said that, Governor Li should be very careful. The joint name here must not be hidden. God knows what Fang Qin will do after knowing what Lu Dao will do.

After all, Lord Fang is Lord Qincha, if he has the intention of burning all the jade and ending up together, it will really be difficult to deal with.

Therefore, before the imperial court expressed its position, Governor Li paid special attention to vigilance, and sent people very intensively to inquire about all the news related to the Qincha Mansion.

A few days passed, but there was no movement from the Chincha Mansion, and there was no instruction from the Chincha-sama, as if nothing had happened.

If something is abnormal, it is a demon, with this kind of thought. Governor Li's nerves tightened even more, and he further intensified the surveillance of the mansion.

But the latest news is that Lord Qin Chafang has left Suzhou City and gone to the west to play on Taihu Lake. Moreover, Lord Fang seemed to be happy, completely forgot about his business, and did not want to return to Suzhou City in the short term

Hearing this news, Governor Li couldn't help but fall into deep contemplation, what happened to this Fang Qincha? Like Cai Kongmu, Governor Li also felt extremely confused.

Just when Governor Li felt at a loss for Fang Yingwu's behavior. Master Liu came out of the office responsible for the operation of the official documents, hurriedly came to the prefect of Li's mansion, and handed the official documents in his hand to the proprietor.

When Governor Li saw Master Liu's expression, he knew that this must be an official document that must be taken seriously. He opened it and looked. It turned out that this official document was sent from Nanjing.

Looking at the content carefully, it is to inform the Suzhou Mansion that there is a Zhongguan Wang Jing who was ordered to go to Jiangnan to purchase medicinal materials and books for the palace.

Governor Li suddenly felt his head big. Not long after ushering in a Qin mission, why did another eunuch come to be procured by order?

Those who have a little experience in officialdom know the way. Such eunuchs are extremely difficult to wait, and they are all cronies of the Son of Heaven. It's far more tiresome than anything!

In the official document, it is said that medicinal herbs and books are procured by order, but no one will think that there are only medicinal herbs and books. What kind of virtue is the Son of Heaven, who in officialdom does not understand? All kinds of treasures, antiques, calligraphy and paintings, or silver, are all indispensable!

This is the real wolf! If there is any sentence to describe the current mood of Li Zhifu, it is a wave of unsettled waves, or a wolf at the front door and a tiger at the back door.

Governor Li took the official document, forgot about Fang Yingwu for the time being, and thought about how to deal with the procurement of eunuchs. But I saw a handyman standing by the door, and reported in a loud voice: "Master! A few officials came in front, saying that they were the forerunners of the procurement of eunuchs! ”

It's coming so fast! Governor Li was helpless, so he had to invite people in. There are a total of three people in this lead, and the first one is wearing a five-grade military attache civilian clothes, and he is quite delicate and feminine, but he walks with a high-spirited and domineering demeanor, which is not like a good stubble.

But he said that this person had stepped into the threshold, and said without saluting: "This official is the prince of Jinyi Wei Qianhu, and he was ordered to procure the eunuch prince, and he went to Suzhou Mansion to fight the front station first!" ”

Governor Li nodded, "This official knows what he said, I don't know what Wang Qianhu has to do now?" ”

Wang Chen took out a stack of papers from his bosom and put it on the public case. Li Zhifu looked down, it turned out to be a treasure banknote issued by the Ming court, which was a banknote used as money.

Wang Chen pressed the stack of treasure banknotes, and said in a light tone: "This is five hundred treasure money, please exchange it into silver taels." ”

Governor Li's face suddenly became gloomy, and the five hundred treasure banknotes were converted into silver taels, is this a joke

The treasure banknote was customized and issued by Emperor Taizu, and according to the official price set by Taizu, the treasure banknote was equivalent to 1,000 copper coins, or one tael of silver.

But after all, the treasure banknote is paper money, not real money, and for many years because of the indiscriminate printing and issuance of the imperial court, the depreciation of the treasure banknote has been extremely rapid. At present, the treasure banknotes can only be exchanged for one or two pennies on the market, that is to say, five hundred treasure banknotes are only equivalent to a few hundred copper plates, and even one or two pieces of silver cannot be exchanged.

So holding five hundred treasure bills and wanting to exchange them for silver is a bit like a joke, but Wang Chen, Wang Qianhu, obviously didn't come to make jokes.

Governor Li suppressed his anger and asked aloud: "How many silver taels does Wang Qianhu want to exchange for treasure money?" ”

Wang Chen had a few smiles on his lips, and said lightly: "According to the official price, the treasure banknote is equal to one tael of silver, and the five hundred treasure banknotes will naturally be exchanged for five hundred taels of silver." This bit of silver, Suzhou Mansion won't be unable to take it out, right? ”

Official price? The treasure banknote has long plummeted to 12% of the official price, and who still recognizes this official price in the market now? Li Zhifu looked at Bao Qian and was silent, not knowing what to think again.

Wang Chen patted the treasure banknote, sneered, and said threateningly: "The prince was ordered to go to Jiangnan to procure, and the Son of Heaven gave a number of salt quotations and treasure banknotes as the capital, and exchanged silver taels for the needs of the prince. Why, Suzhou doesn't want to accept it? ”

After struggling for a moment, Governor Li sighed, "That's it, this mansion will give it to you!" ”

When today's son is not a Ming Jun, he is closer to the eunuch than the minister, and from time to time I hear that the magistrate was unlucky because he offended the eunuch and was told a case. Governor Li thought about it, but he still didn't want to risk offending Wang Jing for five hundred taels of silver.

Wang Chen turned to smile and said arrogantly: "Count Master Li as an acquaintance!" ”

Li Zhifu's brows furrowed even tighter, he was afraid that this was just a eunuch who had begun to procure for the Son of Heaven, how could his appetite be only five hundred taels? How is it possible to be satisfied with just a small treasury?

What's more, these five hundred taels may be Wang Chen's own opinion, and they can only be regarded as these people to test the water a little. The temperament of these eunuchs and minions and lackeys is not like a restrained civil official like Fang Yingwu. (To be continued......)
