Ma Chonghao's hand subconsciously touched the handle of the knife, and then touched the air, sabers are not allowed on this occasion, Ma Chonghao smiled, and looked at the guests who participated in the banquet, thinking that in another year, I don't know how many people are still alive, and I don't know how many people are still qualified to participate in such a banquet

This banquet was unexpectedly unhappy, the gentry left tremblingly, returned to their residence, when it was confirmed that Zhao Jiajun would not be under house arrest to coerce them, most of them did not hesitate, immediately arranged to leave, it is unlikely to leave that day, it is almost dark, go outside the city with a black light, what if someone intercepts and ambushes? In this city, the Xuzhou thief still has a little face, so he can only live in such a frightened way, that is, a banquet, which was called Xuzhou Army before, but now it has been changed back to Xuzhou thief.

When they returned to their residences, the gentry were surrounded by their own servants, and they were always a little more relaxed, and they had to complain a few words, or even scold, and a few masters had just finished complaining like this, and some servants went out under the pretext of going out, just outside the residence, and some people were waiting for the news.

The eyeliner hidden pile installed by the internal guard is a set, but there are also internal guards arranged outside a certain house to find that there are still others and this family to inquire about the news, and the details of this banquet are also inquired, I can't help but be strange, so I followed a while, and the person who inquired about the news turned around and entered an inn, which was where Linqing received officials from all over the world, and the post station was always simple, and there were always people who wanted to live comfortably.

It turned out that the officials of the Ming Dynasty wanted to know, and what Zhao Jin said at the banquet was not intended to hide from people, but then again, it was not surprising that the officials wanted to know the details of the banquet talks, and the internal guard reported what he saw, and there was nothing to do.

"The old man said that he was a loyal and good man of the Ming Dynasty, and it was against his will to come to the banquet of the thief chieftain, and when he went back this time, he must contact the imperial court, and the thief chief of Xuzhou will never die" The servant who entered the inn reported to his master in detail, not only what he heard at the banquet, but also his thoughts after going back, after all, the news bought with silver must prove that it is worth the money.

His master listened carefully to these news, lest he miss a word, but the expression on his face was very indifferent, without any sentimentality or indignation, and even a little smile.

This master is in his early thirties, tall, dignified, with a thick beard, wearing a half-worn cotton robe, at first glance he does not look like a rich man, that is, the calm bearing proves his identity as an official eunuch, and when the servant who inquired about the news finished speaking, the master nodded and said: "It's not strange, that Zhao Jin already has the power of a dragon and a tiger, how can he care about the thoughts of insects and ants, he will do what he wants to do, and he can call to inform him, which is already decent." ”

If there are people who go south and north here, you can hear that the master's accent is Jiangnan official dialect, with a bit of Fujian Min accent, which is not like his tall figure.

"Master, the Xuzhou thieves shouldn't be rampant for too long, how can they become a big thing if they disregard the people's will and act perversely." The servants have been following for a long time, and their conversation and insight are not bad, and they can evaluate one or two.

The one called the master smiled and said: "It can be a big thing, it depends on how many people, how many fields, how many soldiers, you can manage it, use it, but it has little to do with the people's heart, the so-called people's will is nothing more than the effect of Tuntian's military training, if you can win and keep winning, even if the people's heart is not there now, the people's heart will be yours in the future." ”

Sighing with emotion, the old man shook his head and said with a smile: "Since we know what to say, we don't have to delay in this Linqing City, pack our luggage and go to the cabinet to settle the bill, let's hurry up." ”

The servant hurriedly agreed, but after agreeing, he lowered his voice and said: "Master, are we in too much of a hurry, if we want to be targeted by the Xuzhou thief, isn't it too dangerous, it's better to stay for another day." ”

"I'm afraid it's been eyed for a long time, they don't care at all, if they do it, why delay it for so long, pack it up quickly, we have to enter Beijing after going to Jinan, it's already too late, and it's really unreasonable to delay any longer." The old man urged nonchalantly.

Although the servant was worried, but as the master judged, no one stopped at all, and there was no one to watch, and the counter was also very attentive and neat when checking out, and helped to call a big car to send the master and servant out of Linqing, the servant and the two guards have been very nervous, for fear that they will be intercepted and killed by the Xuzhou people while walking, and they will be relieved when it gets dark.

"The little one saw that there were a few teams of rich and noble people who were in a hurry to go back, what did the Xuzhou thieves really do, these few families were afraid that they would not be able to get out, or the old man was clever, knowing that the Xuzhou thieves would not chase ......" After relaxing, the servant first flattered the master, and then said disdainfully: "The Xuzhou thief is so careless, there must be no future, just arrogant for a while"

Hearing his words, the old man didn't laugh and scold, but just said with emotion: "It's not that they are not thoughtful, but they don't feel the need to be thoughtful." ”

When they were discussing here, it was already dark, and the three gates of Linqing City had been closed, only the south gate remained open, which was convenient for Zhao Jiajun to enter and exit, and the military parade banquet, Zhao Jiajun, who had been busy for a day, had begun to prepare to rest, Linqing City was not so quiet, and the mansions of several rich people were brightly lit and laughing.

Most of the gentry who participated in the military parade and banquet were resentful and afraid, because Zhao Jin made it clear that he wanted to check the land population, and said that he would not let them continue to occupy so many interests, which was naturally the pain of cutting the flesh and digging the heart, but for those wealthy businessmen and gentry who ran business and got rich, this is a great gospel, they also have land, but the land does not account for the main, they all heard Zhao Jin make it clear that he wants to set up industry and commerce, and there is a promise in his words that as long as he follows the establishment of industry and commerce, there will definitely be such and such support and convenience.

Others said this, Zhao Jin personally promised that it would be completely different, and industry and commerce related to who does not know the prosperity of Xuzhou industry and commerce, who does not know Zhao Jin stone into gold, everyone is now and in the past, in the future, there will be all kinds of inexhaustible benefits, thinking of this, how can you not be excited and happy, naturally want to drink and celebrate.

This celebration is a gesture in itself, the victory of the triumphal military parade is a great joy, naturally to celebrate with the attitude of the festival, and everyone invited Li Patrol and Li Yuliang father and son to participate, the Li family father and son this night is also very hard, to participate in a few dinners, which one can not be missed, but also because Zhao Jin and his partners refused the invitation, in order to avoid the wealthy businessmen and gentry suspicious, it is necessary to work hard Li family father and son.

It is a small number of people who celebrate the feast, and more people go to rest early, but the internal guards of Xuzhou are still busy in the city, and they are running around in various inns inside and outside the city.

The pair of masters and servants who inquired about the banquet were noticed by the internal guards, and the inn where they lived had more accommodation for officials and scholars, so it was necessary to record it in detail, and there was a clear order on it, this time by all the way, everyone was happy and relaxed, and after going to the inn, let the shopkeeper take out the book of registered guests, and ask while copying.

The ease and happiness of the internal guards is very normal, before and after the Linqing Grand Reading, they have been like officials in the city of public activities, up and down know that they are Xuzhou's factory guards, are in awe and flattery, under such treatment, the mood will naturally be good, this inn is also very attentive, tea and snacks are prepared.

"His name is Hong Chengchou, and he is a left senator in the Zhejiang Political Envoy Department, what is he doing in Beijing this time?" The internal guard looked through the records and asked casually, and there was a paperwork on the side to quickly write down.

"I said that I went to the Ministry of War or the Metropolitan Procuratorate, but the small one just asked according to the usual questions, and I really don't know the details." The innkeeper is often very knowledgeable about the details of the guests, and they will not forget their casual questions.

The internal guard nodded, but the clerk said as he wrote: "If he enters Beijing at this level, he is not able to be a Lang official in the ministry, and it is also possible to be promoted to the position of a squire. ”

"The news I got earlier, didn't it say that Daming Jingli had only set the rules for this super-promotion and reuse of young people? It is said that the will has not crossed the Yangtze River yet, and he is about to enter Beizhili in Zhejiang, is it a coincidence? The Neiwei who turned over the account book asked in surprise, the news of the Ming Jingshi was all out of the world, and the Neiwei knew it faster than elsewhere, so he said so.

The document has been recorded, put down the pen and explained with a smile: "There are many doorways in the officialdom, let's enter the master twice to break the official army, what eunuch party is clear, all those who know how to do it will vacate the position, the manager will start to act at that time, anyway, someone has to fill it, but after the will, it is too bad to move the trace handle, if you guess correctly, this Hong is rushing this wave, there are people in the court!" ”

Neiwei nodded, this document is a broken Xiucai was born, he was the master of a certain county, and was later framed and imprisoned, but he had relatives in Xuzhou, and he turned around and begged Chen Sheng's father Chen Wu, and then he was rescued, and since then he has been working with Zhao Jiajun with all his heart, this document has pondered the Ming officialdom very thoroughly, and his judgment is convincing to everyone.

After the record is completed, I will go to the next one, the innkeeper stuffed some scattered silver according to the usual practice, but was rejected by Zhengse, in addition to staring at others, the internal guards are also staring at each other very closely, this side is collected, maybe it will be reported to prison for heavy responsibility, no one wants to lose a big because of a small loss, no one takes Hong Chengchou to heart, Zhao Jiajun has been moving on the side of the canal since he started, and the same is true for the internal guards, the rich and wealthy families of the Ming Dynasty are going north and south along the canal, they have seen a lot, Mo said that it is a four-grade senator, and it is not uncommon for the second- and third-grade members to come and go.
