Zhizhe, which seems to be disturbed, has a lurking dark tide, and the calm division is secretly very lively.

The household is particularly lively, all kinds of colorful people appear on the stage, some people quietly contact people, and there are countless people staring at them, and there are imperial envoys who are waiting for news every day, and if there is a little wind and grass, they will immediately write a letter of impeachment.

It's just a pity that Xu Butang didn't tell anyone the truth.

During this time, Xu Qian was very peaceful, he read the official documents when he was on duty, and when he returned to Xu's mansion, he also did not go out of the door, and occasionally some people came to visit, although he didn't know what was being discussed, but at least, Xu Qian did not take the initiative to find someone to speak, which shows that Xu Butang at this time did not have the intention of causing trouble.

Everyone couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

It's just that the letters from Zhejiang are like snowflakes floating to the Xu family, and according to the investigation of people with intentions, Xu Qian's reply is not much, only a few, one is to his teacher Xie Qian, obviously just a private letterhead, the second is sent to the Xu family's clansmen, and there is nothing to find fault with, but this third letter is a little unusual, it is written to Liu Yu, although Liu Yu is a figure that cannot be ignored in Zhejiang, but compared with others, it seems to be unimportant.

After all, although the status of the Liu family is noble, but after all, it has not been involved with the big men of Beijing for several generations, and they have always lived in Zhejiang, and in terms of influence, they are not even as good as a prefect, Xu Qian just sent a letter to him, which is confusing.

Regarding the attention of the outside world, Xu Qian's expression is still indifferent, and countless letters have almost allowed him to grasp the entire situation in Zhejiang.

Now in Zhejiang, the crisis has begun.

And this crisis has begun to spread, and it has begun to involve everyone, whether it is officials and businessmen, or ordinary people, they are already in the storm, and no one is immune.

Xu Qian couldn't help sighing, he must be the entire Ming Dynasty, the most ridiculous struggle, no matter how fierce the political struggle was in the past, but it was often limited to the court, and the scope involved was not extensive, but now, it is very different, or it won't be long before everyone will have a painful skin.

And then, it is impossible to say who the head will fall to the ground.

It's just ・・・・・・that Xu Qian picked up one of Zhao Ming's letters, read it again, and he whispered: "Fire, it's almost over!" ”

Thinking of this, he immediately called the family in the house and said, "Go, invite Xu Fu." ”

Xu Qian was invited, and Xu Fu, who was anxious in Ruyi Fang, naturally didn't dare to slack off, so he hurried over, saluted Xu Qian, and said, "Lord Xu."

Xu Qian waved his hand: "You and I are cousins, it is inevitable to be unfamiliar to call adults, what is the situation in Ruyifang now?" ”

Xu Fu smiled bitterly and said, "It's already a wail, and it can't be worse." ”

Xu Qian caressed the case and said: "It can't be any worse, can it be so bad that it can force people to death?" ”

Xu Fu was stunned for a moment and said, "This... ・・・”

Xu Qian smiled and said: "There is a saying that if you don't break it, you can't stand it, I don't know how you can make a big deal out of it, after you go back to Ruyifang, tell everyone that the imperial court is fully prepared to abolish the new policy, and let them each go to find their own way of life." ”

Zhejiang Governor Yamen.

More and more officials and businessmen have been seated.

Hundreds of officials and more than 70 big businessmen were already in economic power at this time.

Everyone didn't make a sound, but Governor Zhao Ming was silent at this time.

Zhao Ming knew that the most difficult moment had come, he, the governor, did not have too deep a background, relying on Xu Qian's favor and recommendation, and now presiding over the new policy, has become one of the chess players of the new deal, and now all kinds of actions of the imperial court mean that the abolition of the new deal is imminent, even if it is not deposed, it will be distorted beyond recognition in other names.

The inspectors of the imperial court have already arrived in Nanjing, and they will soon come to Zhejiang, or it will not be long before these people will begin to collect evidence of their crimes, and if nothing else, within this month, he, the governor of Zhejiang, will be investigated and prosecuted on charges of corruption and lawlessness

Sitting still, of course impossible.

It's just that he can't decide how to resist, and now, it is reported that Lord Xu's letter has come, and this letter was sent to Liu Yu. Xu Qian had news from there, and Zhao Ming breathed a sigh of relief, no matter what, Xu Qian is the backbone of everyone, as long as he is willing to come forward to tell everyone what to do, Zhao Ming feels a little more at ease.

Liu Yu had rushed from Qingtian to Hangzhou overnight, and now he had entered the city, and Zhao Ming couldn't wait to gather a group of people to wait here.

Everyone was anxiously waiting, and finally, the messenger came to report that Liu Yu had arrived.

Almost everyone got up, not out of respect for Liu Yu, but because everyone was a little excited and a little urgent.

"Quick, please."

Liu Yu stepped into the hall, smiled slightly, and said, "You have been waiting for a long time, Liu is late, and there is always a tail following behind along the way, so the old man has delayed some time." ”

The so-called tail is naturally the people of the governor's yamen, all of them look at each other and smile bitterly, which of them has not been watched and followed? There are many people who can enjoy this treatment.

Zhao Ming nodded and said, "Mr. Liu, please take a seat."

Liu Yu sat down, glanced at everyone, and said: "You must be in a hurry, so the old man simply doesn't sell it, the day before yesterday, Lord Xu repaired a letter to the old man, what about this letter, what he said is indeed appalling, but appalling is also appalling, everyone's net worth is almost gone, what do you care?" ”

Zhao Ming said: "I just don't know what Lord Xu's letter says?" ”

Liu Yu's face became solemn, and he said word by word: "Lord Xu's letter is only four words...... Law... No...... Duty...... Numerous! ”

Everyone's faces changed.

This is an idiom, and it would be fine to say these four words on other occasions, but on this occasion, saying such a sentence at this time is enough to scare everyone.

Lord Xu's means of counterattacking are very simple, using these four words, nothing more than that he wants to make a lot of trouble, so that the court feels that the matter is too big, so that he has to compromise and have to back down.

But now all kinds of actions of the imperial court can show their determination, such a great determination, ordinary things, will the imperial court back down? To what extent will the court obediently compromise?

There was no silence and no discussion.

It seems that some people have already thought that this is indeed the only way to save themselves, but the thought of inciting such a thing still can't help but be a little frightened, especially among the people here, and there are many court officials.

Liu Yu seemed to have made up his mind, he sighed and said: "In the past few years, the Liu family has indeed had a lot of family business thanks to the blessing of the New Deal, but because the market is good, a lot of silver has been invested in the workshop, but now that the goods in the workshop are produced, no one dares to buy them lightly.

Actually, it doesn't matter, the Liu family has land, even if there is no workshop, they can still be at ease, but now, even the silk cocoon born in the mulberry field is not acquired, and in less than a year, the Liu family will fall into a poor situation, unless the Liu family is like before, the mulberry field will be changed to a grain field, An Ansheng, maybe there is something to eat, but to get to this point, it is not easy, really want the old man to give up all of a sudden, the old man is willing to give up? Even if the old man is willing, is the other rooms of the Liu family willing? ”

Speaking of this, Liu Yu paused and said: "In fact, compared to this, the Liu family is not to the point of exhaustion, at least there is a way out, and it will not starve to death, but many of you here are borrowing money to build a workshop, once things are allowed to go down like this, you ...... Can you still live? ”

Liu Yu talked about the pain points of many people, and they really have no way to live.

Zhao Ming's face is also cloudy, the businessmen have no way to live, how can he have any way to live, now, it is indeed time to break the kettle, if he is afraid of wolves and tigers, he will only be slowly dragged to death.

"So, the old man decided to make a fuss, and he was so lucky, what are you afraid of? The imperial court has to embarrass us, and Governor Wang has to force everyone to death, so we will simply burn the jade, let's ...... Not easy to bully. ”

"What Mr. Liu said is very true, if you want to make trouble, you will be afraid."

"It's just to make trouble, how to make trouble, what's the use of relying on a few of us?"

Someone sneered: "Don't forget, this Zhizhejiang is full of displaced people who have lost their livelihoods, everyone has no food to eat, and it is not easy to make trouble." ”

"But what if the officers and soldiers are suppressed?"

All kinds of voices were noisy, but Zhao Ming remained calm, he was obviously still weighing the consequences of this matter, and finally, he smiled coldly, stood up, and said: "Make trouble, the official doesn't dare, but Lord Xu's words, the official is obedient, since Lord Xu said that the law is not responsible for the public, then, there should be no other worries at the moment, make trouble, if you don't make trouble, someone will die, and if you make trouble, someone will die, and the left and right will die, just just have a good time, just how to make trouble, but you have to discuss it carefully, from now on, No one is allowed to go out of the governor's yamen......"

Zhao Ming did this, naturally in order to ensure the tightness of the news, he called a messenger: "An additional shift of messengers will be transferred, and no one will be allowed to enter or leave without the warrant of this official." ”

He then looked at everyone and said, "Everyone is a grasshopper on a rope, and this is also for the sake of insurance, okay, now everyone can speak freely!" ”
