Chapter 704: Someone Above

When Zhu Hao saw Zhu Wanhong again the next morning, Zhu Wanhong had already walked with Yu Chengxun and Yang Weicong.

dignified brocade clothes and thousands of households, in front of two young middle- and lower-class civil officials, Zhu Hao almost thought that they were a family, but he couldn't tell who was Lao Tzu and who was the son.

"Anyway, this disrespectful way is coming?"

Yu Chengxun didn't smile when he saw Zhu Hao, his whole person looked radiant, it seems that he had a good "rest" last night, at least the fatigue of this journey has basically been lifted.

Zhu Wanhong looked at Zhu Hao with a smile.

Yu Chengxun walked up to Zhu Hao and said, "I am talking to Uncle Ling about you, saying that your Zhu family has now moved to Nanjing, which is very helpful for us to investigate the case, and Uncle Ling is an old friend of Yang Zhongtang, and this time he is the commander of Nanjin Yiwei to assist us in handling affairs."

Zhu Wanhong clenched his fists: "Several, what are your orders, just mention it, the top and bottom of the Nanjin Yiwei will definitely do their best."

"Uncle, aren't you busy? Do you really have time to walk around with us?"

Zhu Hao asked with a smile, like an innocent child.

This contrast is cute......

Even Zhu Wanhong, who was accustomed to expression management, was a little overwhelmed, and his expression was stagnant.

Who was the gracious and mighty man in front of me last night and scared me enough? Pretending to be innocent and cute in front of me today? If you don't know, you'll be deceived by your cute appearance.

Zhu Wanhong pretended to be calm and said, "It's all the emperor's errand, and I don't dare to slack off in the slightest. Besides, Brother Yu Hanlin, I am the commander of my Nanjin Yiwei, and it is an honor to be able to run errands for a few of them now."

When Zhu Wanhong said this, he deliberately looked at Yu Chengxun with reverence.

Yu Chengxun was naturally extremely proud.

Yu Chengxun's second brother Yu Chengen, succeeded his uncle Yu Ning as his son, during the Zhengde period, Yu Chengen led Nanjing Jinyiwei to command the affairs, which is equivalent to the "second-in-command" of Nanjing Jinyiwei, and the first leader Deng Bing is actually also the commander of the affairs, but Deng Bingnai has opened the descendants of the hero Deng Yu, and he is one level higher than Yu Chengen.

Zhu Wanhong's meaning, I came to do things, and I gave the face of Jinyiwei's commanding brother and brother, not my own nephew.

……

……

The day's journey has officially begun.

It is said that it is to investigate the case, but in fact, it is to clarify the accounts, there are more places to go, and it is the legs that are tired.

Fortunately, Nanjing is well taken care of, in addition to the great help provided by the South Household Department, there are also South Jin Yiwei and the South Military Department also provide assistance.

But strangely, I didn't see anyone guarding the yamen in Nanjing.

Now the Nanjing garrison is Xu Pengju, the Duke of Wei, whose predecessor Xu Li has been guarding Nanjing for many years, is Xu Pengju's grandfather, and his ancestors and grandchildren have run Nanjing's soldiers and horses like a tietong, and it is difficult for outsiders to find clues from the accounts.

In addition, the princely generals are not something that Zhu Hao and Yu Chengxun can investigate, and perhaps even Xu Pengju knows that the main problem of the coastal defense deficit this time lies with their grandchildren, so he simply turned a deaf ear to the arrival of the two imperial envoys.

I don't even bother to do the superficial work of sending someone to receive it.

It seems to be very unfriendly to Zhu Hao and Yu Chengxun, but Zhu Hao knows that Xu Pengju knows that he is being stared at by Yang Tinghe, and in order to protect himself, he will definitely move closer to the new emperor, which is actually a good thing for Zhu Hao.

"Why don't you see the people from the Nanjing Garrison? Shall we go to the garrison and find out?"

Although Yu Chengxun is the "main envoy" of this trip, he does not know much about the intricate relationship between the nobles. At this time, a group of people were in the Nanjing warehouse, saying that they were here to count the goods, but in fact, they were just going through the motions, and several people had been wandering around the periphery, and they didn't even enter the warehouse.

Zhu Wanhong approached and arched his hand: "Yu Hanlin, can you send someone to inform the Nanjing Garrison?"

Zhu Hao said with a smile: "I heard that a few days ago, the Duke of Chengguo in the capital went to visit Yang Ge Lao, I wonder if he has discussed anything?"

Several people looked at Zhu Hao at the same time.

But even if they were as nimble as Yu Chengxun and Yang Weicong as they were present, they didn't react for a while, and Zhu Wanhong reminded him next to him: "Cheng Guogong had led the Nanjing garrison for many years earlier, and now he has been transferred to Beijing......

It's actually a reminder

Everyone present.

Now the Nanjing garrison yamen is facing the top power level competition, although the relationship between Xu Li, the Duke of Wei and Zhu Fu, the Duke of Chengguo, was good, but now for the errand of the Nanjing garrison, the two will definitely fight for the blood.

Such a large shortage of garrisons in Nanjing has a bearing on the overall coordination of coastal defense and other affairs in the south, and the annual military salaries handled alone are 500,000 or 600,000 taels......

Regardless of power, it is said that the interest is ......

Yu Chengxun heard some clues and laughed at himself: "Then we are here, are we not welcome?"

Yang Weicong said, "No. The Nanjing garrison has always regarded the rotation of nobles and nobles, and it cannot always belong to one family, and besides, it cannot be said that Yang Zhongtang has visited Yang Zhongtang as the Duke of Chengguo, so it is said that Yang Zhongtang is biased in this matter."

Zhu Fu just met Yang Tinghe in the capital, so there was no need to make a fuss.

Zhu Hao smiled: "I see that the Nanjing garrison yamen refuses to greet us, most likely because they think that we are not good, and we just need to show enough goodwill."

People are afraid of checking, will be indifferent to us, the more active hot face to stick to people's cold buttocks, basically can't find anything, this is reflected in the Nanjing household department, Nanjing household department let go of everything, that means that there is no problem with the account.

Yuan Ying was listening to the excitement, and when she saw that everyone was looking at her, she smiled bitterly and said, "A few people, I have been walking for most of the day today, and I am estimated to be tired, why don't you have a banquet by this official tonight?"

Zhu Hao said: "The greetings in the garden are so thoughtful, do you still need Brother Yuan to break the bank? We should have held a banquet to thank you for your hospitality."

"Wherever and wherever I am told, I will do what I am told, and I will serve before and after the saddle...... Where are we going next?" Yuan Ying had a good impression of Zhu Hao.

This young man, young but very good-spoken, has known each other for less than a day, and he has been called the elder brother and the elder brother of Tai, although Yuan Ying does not know what background Zhu Hao has behind him, but he feels that Zhu Hao, the champion, is worth dating.

"I'm really tired today, and we don't have to get things done in a day, right? Brother Mao Gong, what do you think?" Zhu Hao looked at Yu Chengxun, and it seemed that he was obeying Yu Chengxun's decision.

Yu Chengxun looked at the sky, in fact, the sun was high, thinking of last night......

As Zhu Hao said, why do you have to make yourself too tired when you go out on errands?

"Then let's go back first."

Yu Chengxun said, "Tomorrow it's best to send the account books of the household department to our accommodation, tomorrow we won't go out, just work in the garden, tomorrow to check for a day, you can't rest until you finish the check, you have to recharge tonight."

"Okay."

Even Yang Weicong felt that Yu Chengxun's proposal was good.

He will also follow him to the garden, after all, such a luxurious place, even in Nanjing, it is rare, eat and drink well, and have fun will not treat himself badly.

Several people were about to leave in a carriage from the warehouse, but Zhu Hao said goodbye and had no intention of walking with Yu Chengxun.

Yu Chengxun asked curiously, "Jingdao, won't you go back with us?"

He was sent to supervise Zhu Hao, knowing that it might be Yang Tinghe who is now beginning to suspect Zhu Hao, but at the same time he also understands that this trip supervises each other, Zhu Hao has not communicated with anyone on the way south, it seems that what happened in the capital has nothing to do with Zhu Hao, but now Zhu Hao has to do his own business, so Yu Chengxun will inevitably leave a god.

Zhu Hao shook his head and said, "It's been a day since I came to Nanjing, and I want to go back to meet the elders in my family."

"Ouch!"

Yu Chengxun patted his head and looked very guilty, "Look at me, you haven't visited your relatives in Nanjing yet, I heard that your grandfather and grandmother are in Nanjing, so you should visit." Alas, it's me who is wrong, or should we go together? I also want to pay a visit to Mrs. Zhu?"

Yu Chengxun didn't say that he wanted to accompany Zhu Hao for the sake of supervision, but just politely...... Let's come together, you have to go back to see your grandfather and grandmother, and I will accompany you to have a look, so that the relationship is more intimate, and it will be more convenient and faster to cooperate in the future.

Zhu Hao said with a smile: "Brother Mao Gong's kindness, I understand it, but we have to check the accounts tomorrow, just delay my husband, I can't trouble you."

"Oh, then go early and come back early, we'll wait for you at the house, watch tonight."

...... during the play"

"No need to wait."

Zhu Hao said, "Maybe I'll come back early tomorrow morning, depending on the situation."

"Yes, yes, when you go back, you will gather more with your family, you are the champion, and you are deeply respected by Yang Ge, this is a matter of giving the Zhu family face, it is rare."

……

……

After the greetings, Zhu Hao said goodbye to Yu Chengxun and others.

Zhu Hao was about to get into his carriage, but Zhu Wanhong followed, but was stopped by two men.

Previously, when Zhu Hao was in front of Yu Chengxun and them, he spoke politely to Zhu Wanhong, but now it is different, just the plainclothes guards around Zhu Hao are the masters of the brocade guards from the Xingwang Mansion.

"Lord Zhu?"

Zhu Wanhong changed his attitude and asked for instructions, meaning can I go over and talk?

Zhu Hao said: "Zhu Qianhu, the official still has something to do today, if Yu Hanlin asks them tomorrow, do you know how to answer?"

"Huh!?"

Zhu Wanhong really thought that Zhu Hao was going back to the Zhu family to show off his might, but now he knew that this was just a disguise, and Zhu Hao didn't even have the interest to set foot on the threshold of the Zhu family.

"I know, I know, Lord Zhu has always been with his family today, and he is in harmony with ......," Zhu Wanhong said.

Zhu Hao sneered: "You say so, they went to investigate, and said that I didn't even enter the door, so isn't everything exposed?"

「……」

Zhu Wanhong couldn't check Zhu Hao's pulse for a while.

What's the situation?

Didn't I let me cover it up for you? Or do you want me to tell the truth? Tell them, in fact, you didn't go back to Zhu's house at all, but went to do your own errands?

Zhu Hao didn't bother to explain anything to Zhu Wanhong, and greeted: "Go!"

Zhu Wanhong said: "Then Lord Zhu, ...... lowly position."

"Keep up!"

Zhu Hao coldly shook off the next sentence.

……

……

I didn't go to any unusual places, but I went to a teahouse next to a remote inn.

When he entered the teahouse, Zhu Wanhong found that this place had already been contracted, and the customers inside and outside were all soldiers, Zhu Wanhong vaguely felt not very good, and when he went to the second floor, Zhu Wanhong suddenly found that Luo An, the envoy of Jinyi Weibei Town, was waiting there.

"Sir!"

Luo An came up and saluted Zhu Hao.

Zhu Wanhong knelt down again and kowtowed to Luo An: "Humble Zhu Wanhong, I've seen Lord Luo."

Luo An couldn't help frowning and looked at the man kneeling on the ground, and then looked at Zhu Hao, as if asking with his eyes, what the hell is this?

Zhu Hao smiled: "Luo Zhen's envoy smiled, maybe this is more popular in Nanjing officialdom. Uncle, get up and speak."

"Yes, yes."

Zhu Wanhong got up from the ground in a panic, and even stumbled in the process of getting up, which shows the agitation of his mood.
