That night, Zhou Qi slept soundly, completely unaware that Zhou Hong in the courtyard next door had no sleep all night. [Full text reading. 】

She solved a major problem, and when she got up the next day, she told Zhou Hong that she wanted to see Ye Zhiqing.

After a night's rest, Zhou Hong looked much more normal, and just responded casually: "Oh, then let Zhou Hao send someone to send you over." ”

Zhou Qi's eyes widened: "Big brother, don't you go to see Sister Ye?" "After the truth is revealed, shouldn't it be that the two of them hugged each other and cried, and from then on walked with her on the road to heaven against Mrs. Zhou?

Zhou Hong got up and explained: "You are not allowed to talk nonsense in the past, I still have things to do." "Leave her alone at the dinner table and leave.

Zhou Hao was ordered to send Zhou Qi to Ye Mansion, and Zhou Qi asked unwillingly: "Brother Hao, where did my eldest brother go out early this morning?" I asked him to accompany me to find Sister Ye, but he refused. ”

"Last night, Guo Wuniang and Mrs. Guo San went out for a banquet, and when they came back, they were ambushed by the salt people. Zhou Hao explained to her carefully: "The young general received a report early in the morning and rushed to the prefect of Qiao Tong to offer condolences. ”

After Zhou Hong got up in the morning, he punched twice, Zhou Hao sparred, saw that he seemed to be in a very good mood, and joked with him: "The young general has met a happy event?" "It ended up being hit in the shoulder blade by Major General Zhou.

Zhou Hao used the strength of his fist to hit himself, estimating that the young general was indeed in a good mood, otherwise he would have been unable to raise his left arm today.

After practicing boxing, before Zhou Qi got up, the person from Qiao's Mansion who came to report the news arrived at the envoy Yamen, and his words were very tactful, but the meaning was not very polite: "...... My lord said that it was a few outlaw salt people who stopped Wuxiǎo Jiě, who had been put in prison, and these people kept saying that since Lord Zhou wanted to smash their jobs, then they would talk to Lord Zhou's family members. I don't know how many days I squatted in the city before I was left alone with the third lady. ”

Qiao Tongzhi said a lot of meaning.

Zhou Hong took office as the two Huai salt transport envoys last year, the surface was calm, but the inside was turbulent, since last year, the salt people have fought several times, he ordered the inventory of the salt barons, and all the subordinate officials of the yamen at all levels were perfunctory and refused to cooperate.

He is not familiar with the salt road, and he basically pounces on the salt affairs for a year, trying to figure out the matter of the salt transportation, but the officials below do not seem to sell his accounts, and it is difficult.

The so-called single-handedness is difficult to support, don't look at his high official position, but the orders he gives are effective in the southeast water barracks.

Zhou Hao sometimes inevitably complains in his heart that he is a good general, but he sent Lianghuai Yandao to be a mascot, if he is conservative, and these people draw silver into their purses, the officials at all levels below will be filial piety according to the routine, and they are all happy. But the salt tax in the treasury is decreasing, and the saints may not be willing. If he raises his arms and shouts that everyone should be a clean and good official, it is tantamount to a fool's dream, and others will probably look at him like a fool.

Qiao Liping asked someone to give a message to Zhou Hong, no matter whether Guo Wuniang was ambushed halfway or not, I am afraid that the Yandao officials were warning Zhou Hong and asked him to be nosy.

After Mrs. Guo San brought Guo Siqing to Yangzhou, she was very high-profile, and she would go to a banquet, but she couldn't wait for everyone to know that the Lianghuai salt envoy was her family's fast son-in-law. She is a post-house woman, she doesn't understand the guān g situation, and when Qiao Liping and Zhou Hong are now in-laws, they pull each other up, and there is no disadvantage.

Zhou Qi's eyes widened, and he seemed to be puzzled: "How could Guo Wuniang be ambushed by the salt people?" "Among the stakes, she will not understand a thousand daughters who are locked up in the boudoir.

She muttered, full of unhappiness: "I originally wanted my eldest brother to go with me to see Sister Ye." ”

Zhou Hao didn't know what happened between the brothers and sisters last night, but Zhou Qi was wishful thinking, and coaxed her: "You don't understand the things between the young general and Miss Ye, so don't mix it casually." Again...... The future sister-in-law of Daxiǎo Jiě is Guo Wuniang. ”

After Guo Siqing's accident, Zhou Hongcai specially sent him to escort Zhou Qi out, for fear that Mèi Mèi would be lán jié by someone with ulterior motives.

Zhou Hong arrived at Deqiao's mansion, and Qiao Liping was waiting for him in the hall.

"Lord Zhou, you can come. Siqing almost had an accident yesterday, thinking that it was late and it was not appropriate to disturb, so the lower officials did not send someone to the ward to say a word. The bandits have been sent to the yamen of the state capital, and those Diao people are full of nonsense, accusing the adults of making them have no way out, so they are looking for the adults' families to take revenge. ”

This is very heart-wrenching, after Zhou Honglai gave preferential treatment to the salt people, and did not do any harsh government, but the previous Lianghuai salt transport envoys were ruthless, treating the salt people as ants, and exploiting the salt people.

"Lord Lao Qiao is bothered, is Wuxiǎo Jiě okay?"

Qiao Liping had already been informed of what he wanted to express, so he accompanied Zhou Hong to wait for Guo Siqing in the main hall, and sent Xiaoyahuan to the backyard to report.

Guo Siqing was indeed shocked last night. She went out to a banquet with Mrs. Guo San, and was stopped by more than a dozen ragged men on the way back
