Hu Hanshan's construction of houses and Chen Yong's renovation of the official ditch were carried out at the same time.

Hu Hanshan is silent, but Chen Yong's side is much more noisy, because of the encroachment on the ancestral homes of the people in the market, there are many complaints.

Chen Yong was drinking at the home of a thousand households in the Wucheng Terracotta Division, and the chief of his subordinates came to report: "Young master, some people in the west of Dazhong Bridge have made a fuss, saying that they are going to respond to the Tianfu Yamen to sue the battalion secretary in charge of repairing the official ditch. ”

Chen Yonggui is the eldest son of the Marquis of Linjiang, and he can sit in a house that inspects thousands of households and drinks.

First, because the inspection of Qianhu is the old department of Linjiang Hou, and the second is that he is in charge of the inspection of the Dazhong Bridge.

Without waiting for Chen Yong to speak, the inspection Qianhu explained: "You go to the inspection general flag under the head of Ben Qian, and ask him to find a few green shopkeepers." ”

Chen Yong is very satisfied with the arrangement of inspecting thousands of households, and what the people in the market are most afraid of is the green hands who often oppress them.

The young hands opened gambling houses privately and kept private prostitutes, and they all relied on the soldiers and horses of the five cities to take care of them.

When the blue-handed shopkeepers saw the general inspection flag, they immediately took the green-handed to find the people in the market.

Dozens of people in the market, who were already homeless, gathered on the Dazhong Bridge, and under the leadership of an old man surnamed Li, who was quite prestigious, blocked the Dazhong Bridge.

Old man Li is a lame old pawn who once followed Emperor Hongwu to fight the world: "If you don't give us a way to live, let's go to Yingtianfu Yamen to sue." ”

"The old man doesn't believe it, and the government can't give an explanation."

There are several inspectors standing on the east side of the bridge, holding water and fire sticks in their hands, and they are driving away the people in the market.

The people in the market had no way to live, so they looked at these inspectors with red eyes, and waited for Old Man Li to give an order, and the net was broken.

The inspectors lost their momentum of bluffing, and they were really afraid that the barefoot old man in the crowd would gouge them with a hoe.

Just when the two sides were confronting, Old Man Li and the people of the market were about to cross the Dazhong Bridge, and a group of green hands blocked the way.

No matter how big the grievances of the people in the market are, in the face of the young hands who are powerful in the market, they can only swallow their grievances in their stomachs.

Several blue-handed shopkeepers with a large number of green hands and sticks surrounded the people on the Dazhong Bridge.

Old man Li and some of the old pawns around him are not afraid of the green hands, but most of the people in the market are afraid of the green hands who often bully them.

Although they can't be killed, as long as their arms and legs are broken, the people in the market can only wait to die if they can't work.

Old man Li was very stubborn, picked up a cattle slaughtering knife, and was about to rush over to find the green hands desperately.

The old brother next to him hugged him tightly and didn't let him rush over.

"Lao Li, don't be impulsive, if you kill a green hand, you have to pay for his life."

"Lao Li, think about your daughter-in-law who is about to give birth, don't you want to see your grandson born with your own eyes."

Old man Li can't hear the word grandson the most, he is over fifty years old, he is already considered to have a long life, the only regret is that he has not seen his grandson at such an old age.

Old man Li has never been soft over the years, and when he was cut off by a tartar, he still laughed and didn't shed a single tear because of the severe pain.

Old man Li put down the cattle slaughtering knife in his hand in a dejected manner, looked at the sky, and burst into tears: "God, can you still leave us a way to live!" ”

The old soldiers clenched their fists, and the women began to sob.

It's already spring, but it's still cold.

Men can also resist primary antibodies, and most of the elderly, weak, women and children will freeze to death at night.

The green-handed shopkeepers have been watching all this coldly, and there are many people who have lost money in the gambling house, and their kindness has never been related to their business.

In the nearby teahouse, there were many noble children and children of eastern Zhejiang, who were also coldly watching.

It's not that the officials have suffered, but all the officials, even the petty officials who are not in the grade, will have some noble children and children of eastern Zhejiang who come out to help.

After all, the bureaucratic gentry and the common people are two classes.

At this time, an old man in a brown layman's uniform walked over with a family member.

As long as there is a central minister who sees the old man, he will kneel down in fright and meet Zhu Yuanzhang, who is aware of the people's feelings.

Zhu Yuanzhang became the founding emperor with a bowl, knowing that it is one thing for officials to report it, and it is another thing to really implement it.

Zhu Yuanzhang would come out every month to observe the people's feelings, and in order to avoid being recognized, he didn't even bring his companion and Mao Xiang, only Jiang Xuan, the deputy commander of Jinyiwei.

Jiang Zhen has gradually become equal to Mao Xiang because of his grace over the years, and there are even signs of replacing him.

Zhu Yuanzhang walked over, called the Buddha name, and asked Qingshou: "What happened in front, why is it all blocked here." ”

Standing on the outermost periphery, the green hand was restless and preparing for a fight, and he was disturbed by someone.

This green hand is none other than Hu Hanshan, who is dressed in disguise and ready to fish in troubled waters.

Hu Hanshan's face was full of impatience, and he was about to give this layman a stick.

However, seeing the family next to the layman, Hu Hanshan couldn't help muttering: "This man is really good-looking, if he tattoos on his shoulder, he will be able to get rid of a flower monk Lu Zhishen." ”

Jiang Zhen is fat and burly, he has fought on the battlefield for so many years, and his ability to ride a bow and horse is even more superb than Lu Zhishen in "Loyal Water Margin".

It's just that he and Mao Xiang are two people, one dark and one bright, only the three of them know the existence of Jiang Xuan, and every time they meet their subordinates, they are separated by six folded lacquer screens.

These three people are Emperor Hongwu, Empress Ma, and Prince Zhu Biao, and even Mao Xiang only knows that there is a Jiang Xuan in secret, and he has never seen a real person.

Jiang Rong is fat and burly, but he is not very arrogant at all, but his heart is as careful as hair.

Jiang Xuan took advantage of his appearance and glared at Qingshou.

Hu Hanshan looked up at Jiang Xuan, who could kill him with one punch, swallowed his saliva, and said a very common thing: "I heard that it was because of the repair of the official ditch that occupied the ancestral homes of the common people. ”

"The people near Dazhong Bridge were so angry that they wrote a letter and wanted to go to the Yamen of Tianfu to sue the official."

The scene of the confrontation ahead is under control, and it can't be fought today.

Hu Hanshan had no chance to fish in troubled waters, and said sickly: "Can the people sue the officials this year? How did these barefoot old men know who the person in charge of repairing the official ditch was? ”

Zhu Yuanzhang's face became much more serious, and he continued to speak: "We have heard, it seems to be Hu Hanshan, the eldest son of Prime Minister Zuo, and Chen Yong, the eldest son of Linjiang Hou. ”

Hu Hanshan glanced at the layman more: "Yohe, I didn't expect that in addition to eating fasting and reciting Buddha, the old layman also knows a lot about the market in Jinling." ”

"The old man is right, but he is not right."

Zhu Yuanzhang didn't understand what this meant, seeing that the green hands were about to disperse, he smiled kindly: "Idle is idle, please drink tea, do you want to go?" ”

Hu Hanshan was about to get out, and said to a green hand next to him: "There is an old monk here who invites his brother to tea, and it is estimated that he is asking his brother for help." ”
