CHAPTER IX

Chun'an County has never had so many soldiers stationed in history. All of them were transferred from the province, and under the light of the torches, the armor, knives, guns, and firearms were all shining, filling the county Yadaping all around!

In the middle of the big flat is surrounded by a flagpole, with an arm thick chopping firewood erection into a firewood mountain, wide at the bottom and narrow at the top, more than one zhang high!

Two people were tied back to back on the flagpole at the top of Shibayama.

- One is Qi Dazhu.

- One is the Inoue Shishiro in the Yamen Prison.

About a zhang distance around Shibayama, there are standing cages on all sides, and in each station cage stands a young man, the round mouth above the station cage is stuck in their necks, and everyone's hands are handcuffed to the pillar of the station cage.

There were still several teams of soldiers standing in front of the county yamen, all of them lined up there.

The people all came, although they were all quiet, after all, thousands of heads were crowded, and it was time for the disaster, countless pairs of eyes were hiding hostility, looking at Qi Dazhu and Inoue Shishilang tied to the pyre, and looking at the dozen or so station cages around the pyre.

The soldiers transferred from the province were very nervous, enclosing the large flat of the execution ground, and the spears and guns were all aimed at the people watching the execution.

It didn't take long for this calm to be shattered, and first there was a commotion in the street to the north, and countless pairs of eyes looked at it around Daping, and the crowd surged.

The officer of the team was nervous and shouted, "There are people from the province!" Obstruct! Don't move! ”

The soldiers turned their spears and used the pestle on the handle of the spear to the people in the front row.

The firecrackers in the back row also held the firecrackers high and shouted, "Stand back!" Back off! ”

The people in the front row retreated, but there were more people in the back, and the crowd still poured forward.

A group of officials came, holding bowls in their hands, and the bowls contained ink, and dipped them in ink with a large pen and sprinkled them on the heads of the people in the back row. The crowd then retreated.

The people on both sides of North Street were forced by officers and soldiers to press the storefronts facing the street, and a passage was vacated in the middle.

Hai Jui appeared on the street side of North Street with his horse in tow.

On either side of him and behind him were the group of officers and soldiers of the province.

Hai Rui and his entourage walked into Daping, and the crowd surged again.

Sprinkled ink didn't work, those officials had already prepared, and immediately moved over the benches, stood up across the soldiers, and the people crowded forward towards the front row and the back of the row, nodded their heads and whipped them with leather whips:

"You! Back off! The whip whipped a man on the head.

"You! No retreat! The whip whipped at the other man's head.

"That's you! Squeeze it any more, and you'll be locked up! ”

The crowd stepped back a bit.

Hai Rui didn't have the slightest expression on his face, and he didn't look at the people around him, and walked forward steadily.

Suddenly, Hai Rui stood still and looked at the pyrapher a few steps away.

A pair of eyes sparkled on the pyre and looked directly at him!

Hai Rui also looked directly into these eyes, and he recognized that it was the Qi Dazhu that he let go of at the Caoyun Dock in Hangzhou!

At this time, there was a mouthpiece in Qi Dazhu's mouth, and there were ropes at both ends that were tightly tied around the back of his head, and there seemed to be countless words in his eyes.

Hai Rui stopped looking at him, and moved his gaze to the widow who was tied to Qi Dazhu.

Inoue Shishiro was like cold iron at this time, and his eyes were looking at the sky.

Hai Rui walked forward slowly, and the eyes in the cage were wide open, looking at him.

There are two more faces that have been seen, the two Sangmin who have visited him with Qi Dazhu at Caoyun Wharf, and at this time, there is also a horizontal strip in his mouth, and his eyes flash with a desire for help.

Hai Rui's gaze was surprisingly indifferent, walking past the standing cages and walking towards the yamen.

"Hey! Catch! There was a shout behind him.

Hai Rui stopped and slowly turned away.

An old man, the old man who was lying in the field when Ma Ningyuan stepped on the green seedlings, was twisted by the soldiers surrounding the crowd as soon as he squeezed out of the crowd, and struggled there and shouted: "Wronged! Lord Qingtian, none of us have a complication, we are all wronged! ”

Hai Rui looked at him from afar.

At this time, someone in the crowd also shouted: "Wronged! It's all wronged! ”

More and more people shouted after him.

The captain of the town guard was anxious and ordered loudly: "Let go!" ”

The soldier with the musket placed his hammer diagonally on the heads of the crowd.

The sound of guns roared and the flames were shining, and the crowd slowly quieted down again.

The captain of the town guard hurriedly walked up to the old man: "This is also a common man, put it in a cage!" ”

Several soldiers immediately dragged the old man to an empty cage, opened the cage door, and closed it.

The old man looked at Hai Rui in the cage and still shouted: "Master Qingtian, wronged!" ”

Hai Rui just watched, without any expression on his face. The team officer ordered to arrest someone, and then stepped back and bowed his hand to Hai Rui: "The next surname is Xu, the head of a thousand households in the Yamen." ”

Hai Rui only glanced at him, then turned around and walked towards the yamen in a slow manner.

That Xu Qianhu was stunned, and his face immediately turned red.

A petty official wearing an eight-grade uniform walked over from the Yamen steps that were too high and the steps were too high and the steps were level, walked over quickly, went down the steps, and greeted Hai Rui with a deep bow: "Subordinate Chun'an County Chengtian Youlu Gong Zun!" ”

Hai Rui only looked at him and didn't say anything.

Tian Youlu: "It's only time now, please go and change your official uniform first, and be beheaded at three o'clock in the afternoon." ”

Hai Rui no longer looked at him, Xu Bu boarded the prison platform, and walked towards the gate of the county government.

Tian Youlu was also stunned, so he had to follow closely.

That Xu Qianhu was angry for a while, and strode towards the team officer who came with Hai Rui.

Xu Qianhu: "Lao Jiang, what kind of birdman is this Zhixian County, Lao Tzu greets him, he doesn't pay attention to it, and the cowhide is coaxing." ”

The team officer who came with him turned out to be surnamed Jiang, and he was also a thousand households, and he saw Hai Rui snubbing Xu Qianhu just now, and then greeted him: "I was about to tell you that this person has some background, and he choked Zhongcheng and Master He in the lobby of the governor's yamen." The above said hello, and at three o'clock in the afternoon, he had to be coerced to execute these people. ”

Xu Qianhu: "Got it." A bird knows the county, even Zhongcheng and Lord He dare to top, and we have taken this breath for the above. ”

That Jiang Qianhu: "It's not just a matter of getting angry. If you kill someone, you have to let him buy the field quickly and change the rice to mulberry. We just can't get angry with him. ”

Xu Qianhu: "When I came, the boss only told me to arrest and kill people, and I didn't stay here for more time to buy land." ”

Jiang Qianhu: "As mentioned above, killing someone at three o'clock in the afternoon has nothing to do with you and me." There are other soldiers to protect Boss Shen to do it. ”

Xu Qianhu: "That's pretty much it. ”

At this time, there was another commotion in the crowd behind, and Xu Qianhu turned around viciously: "Who is making trouble again?" Beat! Beat with a whip! ”

The servants stood on their stools again and whipped at some of the men behind them.

The hour of murder at three o'clock in the afternoon is predestined.

Near noon, the sky was blue and the sun was high. Countless pairs of eyes waiting to watch the execution were all staring up at the slowly moving sun with a dazzling light.

The executioners came out of the yamen in a procession.

The four trumpeters and the four soldiers with the bowls and mouths walked to the sides of the table and stood on both sides. The trumpet blower set up the trumpet, and the torch was lit with the bowl at the mouth of the bowl.

Since the province was set to be burned at the stake and hanged in cages, more than a dozen executioners dressed in red did not carry knives. Two executioners at the stake walked to the pyre with torches and oil drums. Each of the ten hanged executioners walked to a cage.

The so-called cage hanging is: the bottom plate of the cage is alive, and there is also a ring handle at the back, as long as the executioner pulls the handle, the bottom plate is pulled out, and the neck of the person in the cage will be stuck in the round sleeve of the cage, stuck alive.

The crowded people watching the execution began to stir, and the soldiers around the execution ground became even more nervous, whipping and poking, constantly shouting loudly, and the musketeers also aimed their guns at the people in the front row, suppressing the noisy crowd.

That Xu Qianhu couldn't bear it anymore at this time, raised his head to look at the sun, and then looked at the prison beheading platform in front of the yamen. The chair in front of the prison table was still empty, and there was no movement in the open yamen. Hai Jui hasn't come out since he went in.

"It's all calm!" Xu Qianhu shouted to the soldiers who were crushing the crowd, "Execution will be carried out on time at three o'clock in the afternoon!" With that, he walked towards the prison platform, jumped onto the wooden platform, and approached the officer who was standing at the door with Hai Rui.

Xu Qianhu: "It's noon, and I haven't come out yet, what's going on!" ”

That Jiang Qianhu: "Call him out." ”

The two walked towards the yamen together, and they were still fierce along the way, but as soon as they stepped into the lobby, Xu Jiang and the others were stunned at the same time.

Hai Rui had changed into an official uniform and hat, sitting in front of the desk in the middle of the lobby, his eyes were restrained and motionless, but quietly made the huge hall give birth to an invisible majesty.

County Chengtian Youlu sat in front of the desk next to him, obviously withered, and when he saw two thousand households coming in, he immediately stood up.

Hai Jui was still sitting and didn't greet them, so the two thousand households had to stand there.

The lobby immediately fell silent again, and only the sound of commotion outside the yamen came in bursts.

The Ming Dynasty took scholars, following the old precedents of the previous dynasties, not only the article, but also the appearance, the so-called herdsmen must have an official appearance, and there is no official prestige if there is no official appearance. Therefore, when taking a scholar, there is an additional condition, which is actually an inevitable condition, that is, to look good and have complete six palaces. For example, the first level is the face of the word "country", the face of the word "A", and the face of the word "Shen"; The inferior ones should also have the face of the word "Tian" and the word "by". As soon as the official hat is worn, there is an official appearance. If the parents are unkind and give birth to a face with the word "yes", no matter how splendid the article is, it will inevitably fall off the list.

Hai Rui is a lifter, he has passed the Jinshi examination, because he is a great talent, he does not pay attention to the rules of "breaking the question and undertaking the question", and bluntly talks about national affairs, the examiner naturally does not like it, and he falls off the list on the ink roll, so he has not been able to go to the "face" level at all. Whether there is an official appearance or not, it can only be revealed by wearing an official uniform. In Hangzhou, he had two meetings, he wore civilian clothes, and now in Chun'an, he put on the hat and uniform of the county magistrate for the first time, with high eyebrows, a straight nose and sunken eyes, and sat in the lobby, which was awe-inspiring.

The three of them were apprehensive in their hearts, but they couldn't just stand like this, and the two thousand households looked at Tian Youlu at the same time.

Tian Youlu's eyes looked at the drip in the middle of the lobby. The hour card in the drip pot is exposed. Tian Youlu walked over, looked at it carefully, and when he had a statement, he turned to Hai Rui and said, "Tangzun, it's a quarter of noon, you should go to the prison to behead the platform." ”

The two thousand households also made a gesture of "please".

Hai Rui still sat there and didn't move, but suddenly spoke: "I'll take the case file." This was the first time Hai Rui had spoken since he entered Chun'an, and he spoke with a heavy eastern Guangdong accent.

"What?" Tian Youlu may not have heard it clearly, but he didn't expect it, so he asked.

Hai Jui: "I want to see the case file." ”

Tian Youlu: "No, there is no case file......

"If you don't have a case file, call me Gou Zhu to kill someone!" Hai Rui's tone suddenly increased.

Tian Youlu was stunned for a moment, looking at the two thousand households, and the two thousand households also looked at each other.

Then Jiang Qianhu had to speak: "Haizhi County, the killing was decided by the province, and it didn't say that the case file had to be reviewed. ”

Hai Rui begged him: "I said in the governor's hall that if there is really a circumstance, I will execute people and criminals according to the "Da Ming Law", but I will never kill innocents indiscriminately. Speaking of this, he turned to Tian Youlu again: "Since the murder was declared, why is there no case file?" ”

Tian Youlu: "If you go back to the hall, the criminal was only caught yesterday, according to the "Da Ming Law", if there is a case of common law, it will be executed on the spot, so it is too late to file a case. ”

Hai Rui's eyes sharpened: "If you ask a question, you have to answer truthfully." ”

Tian Youlu was stunned for a moment: "Cousin, excuse me." ”

Hai Jui: "You just said that the prisoner was caught yesterday. When did you catch it yesterday? ”

Tian Youlu looked at Xu Qianhu.

Xu Qianhu: "Before dawn yesterday. What's wrong? ”

Hai Jui: "Where?" ”

Xu Qianhu: "On the Hejiapu wharf thirty miles outside Chun'an County." Do these Haichi prefectures also have to be managed? ”

"That's exactly what I'm going to do!" Hai Rui stood up suddenly, accentuated his tone and quickened the speed of his speech: "The prisoner was arrested before dawn, but the report was sent to the governor's yamen hall yesterday morning. Chun'an to Hangzhou more than 200 miles, your report flew with wings? ”

Xu Qianhu was stunned for a moment, only then did he know that he had lost his words, and only then did he know how powerful this Hai Rui was, and slowly moved his gaze to Jiang Qianhu and Tian Youlu.

Jiang Qianhu and Tian Youlu were also stunned, dumb there.

"Blatantly told me about "Da Ming Law"! "The Law of the Great Ming" is here. Hai Rui picked up a copy of "Da Ming Law" on the case: "Which article on the "Da Ming Law" says that if there is a common affair, there is no need to file a case file? No case file is filed, no confession is asked, and the prisoner will send a report to the boss yamen before he is caught, what are you going to do! ”

All three of them were silent, speechless.

Hai Jui: "There is a big loophole in this case, and we must not be executed today." Speaking of this, they looked at the two thousand households: "Take your soldiers, first take a prisoner to the county jail, and keep them under strict guard." Jiang Qianhu went to Hangzhou to report to the governor's yamen and the yamen of Zhensi, and I sent someone to Suzhou to report to Governor Hu. This case must be tried jointly by the Governor's Yamen, the Governor Yamen, and the Yamen! ”

How dare Xu Jiang and the two thousand households agree to his arrangement, looking at each other, Xu Qianhu motioned for Jiang Qianhu to speak.

Jiang Qianhu looked at Hai Rui: "When I came, the province greeted us and asked us to execute the criminals, but they didn't say that they would try the case." Lord Hai, we were sent by the Yamen, and we only know how to kill people, and we don't care about anything else. ”

Hai Rui stared at him: "Good top." Killed the wrong person, did you confess, or did the Yamen confess? ”

Jiang Qianhu did not show weakness: "The province is determined, of course, it is Lord He and Lord Zheng who bear the burden." It is not my turn to take the blame. ”

Hai Rui: "Then you can take the handwritten instructions of Lord He and Lord Zheng." ”

How did Zheng Michang and He Maocai leave their handwritten warrants? Jiang Qianhu was asked again.

Hai Rui's eyes swept at the two: "Let me tell you, this case is small, and you can kill people in Chun'an." Speaking of greatness, there is also the governor's yamen above the governor's yamen, and there is also the imperial court above the governor's yamen! You are ordered to do errands, and now since there is no handwritten instruction from your boss, I am the current official of Chun'an, and I am also the supervisor of the beheading, according to the "Da Ming Law", everything must be done according to what I say. I don't hook Zhu, whoever dares to kill people, the court will investigate it, and no one above will give you any guilt! ”

Xu Jiang and the others understood this, and they were stunned for a while.

Hai Rui: "And. None of the convicts can indulge in death until the facts of the case are tried. One person is gone, one person is dead, and I will take you together to take the blame! ”

Two thousand households looked at each other.

"How many days will the food for disaster relief be distributed?" Hai Rui's gaze turned from the two thousand households to Tian Youlu.

Tian Youlu had been stunned for a long time, and then he was suddenly asked, and hurriedly replied: "Also, I can send it for another day......"

Hai Rui: "What did you prepare?" ”

This Tian Youlu was originally a cowardly and greedy person, serving his predecessor Chang Boxi only blindly greeted and offered plans, and searched as much as he could, knowing the county to get the big head, and he got the small head, but he was also like a fish in water, and suddenly met Hai Rui such a boss, he was stunned all of a sudden, and only asked two questions, and his tongue was not good: "What preparations do you make for the humble and humble functions?" ”

Hai Rui: "Then the day after tomorrow, you are going to kill your head." ”

Tian Youlu was anxious: "Tang, Tangzun, what you said is not right. The food for disaster relief has always been allocated by the province, so why kill my head? ”

Hai Rui: "The county is vacant, the county is in charge, knowing that there is only one day's food but is unprepared, starving to death and provoking the people to revolt, if you don't kill you, who will you kill?" ”

Tian Youlu: "Okay, the grain bought from the field will be transported to ...... tomorrow at the latest."

Hai Rui: "Who promised you that the grain you bought from the field will arrive tomorrow?" ”

Tian Youlu: "When, of course, it's the province." ”

Hai Jui: "What if the grain doesn't arrive tomorrow?" Is it to kill you or to kill the people in the province? Not to mention that the situation has changed now. After being unjustly imprisoned, you cannot forcibly buy or sell land until the case is cleared. In short, tomorrow there will be no relief food, which will provoke a civil uprising, and I will be the first to ask you for the crime. ”

Tian Youlu: "Tangzun, such a big matter, you can't press it on my head." ”

Hai Rui: "I am the magistrate, and I will take care of everything after I come." You have to take care of what I caused before I came! You go now, borrow food from the big households in Chun'an, and don't want you to borrow too much, borrow enough food for three days for disaster relief, and it's none of your business. ”

Tian Youlu: "I, how can I borrow it?" ”

Hai Rui: "Borrow in the name of the county yamen, you go to borrow it, and I will pay it back." ”

Tian Youlu didn't hesitate: "I, I'm not allowed, I can't necessarily borrow it." ”

Hai Rui: "If you can't borrow it, you can quickly escape with your family." ”

Tian Youlu: "This, what do you say?" As he spoke, he hurried outside. As soon as I walked to the entrance of the lobby, I was scared - it turned out that at this moment, there was a loud commotion outside, and it was already three o'clock in the afternoon!

"It's over, it's over, it's past three o'clock in the afternoon." Na Tian Youlu muttered, how dare he go to the gate again, fold towards the corridor, and walk towards the side door.

Xu and Jiang Erqianhu also understood, and their eyes hurriedly looked at the drip in the hall.

The dripping wooden sign shows "three o'clock in the afternoon"!

Hai Rui: "It's past three o'clock in the afternoon. First, a cadre of prisoners was taken to the county jail. Then immediately send a report to the boss yamen! ”

At this time, Tian Youlu and the others really have nothing to say.

The grain was borrowed, and Hu Zongxian breathed a sigh of relief. Coupled with the smooth wind all the way, his complexion is obviously much better than when he was in Yingtian.

"You met the emperor this time, how are his eyes? Think about it. Li Shizhen sat on the cushion on the right side of the cabin of the big ship and looked at Hu Zongxian tightly.

Hu Zongxian thought in the underworld: "There is still light in the eyes, and there are no symptoms of faintness. ”

Li Shizhen: "Are your eyes red or not?" ”

Hu Zongxian thought: "It seems that the whites of his eyes are a little red. ”

Li Shizhen's expression was solemn: "Eye bags, are the eye bags under the eyeballs cyan?" ”

Hu Zongxian thought about it again: "It's a little green." ”

Li Shizhen's eyes looked out of the cabin: "It's all a symptom of mercury poisoning......

"Does it matter?" Hu Zongxian's concern was immediate.

Li Shizhen: "If you still take Dan every day, no matter how well you maintain it, it will only take three years and five years." ”

Hu Zongxian was stunned, slowly, his eyes were a little wet.

Li Shizhen also sighed: "I said in the Tai Hospital, I advised the emperor not to believe in the techniques of those monks, and not to take the pills of the monks." Because of this, I can't stay there. ”

Speaking of this, Li Shizhen stood up and slowly paced in the big cabin: "Discouraged." It's not that I'm talking about you, the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty, and so many famous ministers who claim to be science, no one dares to stand up and speak, and no one persuades the emperor to stay away from those evil arts. Led by Yan Song, several scholars competed to write green words to the emperor one by one, and the evil of the king! The number of qi in the Ming Dynasty, I think it's about the same. ”

Hu Zongxian's eyes lowered.

Li Shizhen: "Hu Butang, if you ask a word, don't care." ”

Hu Zongxian slowly raised his gaze again and looked at Li Shizhen: "Mr. Li, excuse me." ”

Li Shizhen didn't look at him: "You are a talented person, and you also have the community and the people in your heart, why do you want to attach yourself to Yan Song?" ”

Hu Zongxian never expected him to ask such a question, and he was stunned again.

Li Shizhen: "Although I am already in the rivers and lakes, I can't hide, I still have to be invited to see a doctor by this prince and that big man, I heard a lot about you, do you want to hear it?" ”

Hu Zongxian looked at Li Shizhen tightly: "Sir, please speak." ”

Li Shizhen: "Let's talk about it first." It is an eight-word evaluation for you, knowing people and being good at their duties, and working hard. With Qi Jiguang, the widows are outside the country, and the southeast is determined. Repair the sea pond, reduce taxes, encourage silk spinning business, and the people are relianted. With these, for thousands of generations, the name of your Hu Zongxian should be indispensable in the biography of famous ministers. ”

Hu Zongxian's gaze slowly lowered again.

"It's not good, I don't say it, you know." Speaking of this, Li Shizhen suddenly became excited, "For the sake of the people of Zhejiang, this time you first resisted, and now you are raising food everywhere, I will send you a bystander's clear words, Yan Song, especially Yan Shifan, fell in the past two years." You can't just give it up. ”

Hu Zongxian looked at Li Shizhen again.

Li Shizhen also looked at him deeply: "The righteous can even destroy their relatives!" You should stand up and reveal their great evil to the emperor! ”

Hu Zongxian: "Sir, let me answer you, don't be disappointed. ”

Li Shizhen already showed a look of disappointment.

Hu Zongxian: "Anyone can go to the old cabinet, but I, Hu Zongxian, can't go down the old man." ”

Li Shizhen: "Why? ”

Hu Zongxian: "I can not be a famous minister, but I can't be a villain!" ”

Li Shizhen looked at him tightly for a long time before nodding: "Knowing that Yan Song still has something special about reusing people like you!" ”

"Ministry, Mr. Li." Tan Lun came in from outside the cabin, with a grim face.

Hu Zongxian looked at him.

Tan Lun just looked at him.

Hu Zongxian slowly stood up and said to Li Shizhen: "Unaccompanied, Mr. sit firmly." ”

Hu Zongxian and Tan Lun walked out of the cabin. The two walked to the bow of the big ship, and the captain of the personal soldiers led a few personal soldiers to the side of the ship at once.

"It's weird." Tan Lun said urgently beside Hu Zongxian, "First of all, Gao Hanwen was forced to sign by them during the deliberations on the third day, and he fainted in the hall. Then it was reported that Chun'an's victims had been told to Hai Rui to execute the prisoners immediately. ”

Hu Zongxian was shocked: "Did anyone kill you?" ”

Tan Lun: "Hai Rui was not executed. On the spot, all the prisoners were taken to the prison, saying that there was a big loophole in the case of the co-ordination, and they sent a report to ask the governor's yamen and the governor's yamen to jointly try the case. ”

Hu Zongxian's mouth was closed, and he thought sharply there.

Tan Lun: "In addition, there is a report that Shen Yishi openly used the brand of the Weaving Bureau to transport grain ships to Chun'an Jiande to buy land, counting the days, today should have arrived." ”

"The day has finally come." Hu Zongxian's tone was very heavy, "Ge Lao, Xiao Ge Lao, Yuwang, Xu, Gao, and Zhang are all going to have a showdown." After saying these words, he became indignant: "Why do you want to bring the emperor in!" Blatantly buying the people's fields under the banner of the Weaving Bureau, what are they going to do! ”

Tan Lun: "The dog jumped off the wall in a hurry!" Zheng Michang and He Mao knew that they were trapped in and couldn't get out, and they were dizzy. ”

Hu Zongxian: "And that Shen Yishi, he made his fortune by relying on the Weaving Bureau, why did he get involved with Zheng and He?" ”

Tan Lun: "I can't see through this. Ministry, the most important thing at the moment is Chun'an. Hai Jui did not kill anyone, which is obviously an unjust case. At this time, the victims were forced to sell their land, which would immediately provoke a popular uprising. Hai Jui was there alone, and he couldn't stand it. ”

Hu Zongxian shook his head: "Think about it deeply, what will Zheng Michang and He Mao do if this change happens?" ”

Tan Lun thought for a while: "If the case of the colleague is faked by them, they will kill people and kill them." Ministry, you must go in person. Only you can control the situation. ”

Hu Zongxian shook his head again: "I can't go." After the discussion was completed, the boat was called to dock, and I had to go to Qi Jiguang's camp by land immediately. ”

Tan Lun was taken aback: "What does the ministry mean?" ”

"Internal strife will invite external trouble!" Hu Zongxian said slowly, his worried eyes turned into the distance.

Facts have proved that Hu Zongxian's worries are not unreasonable. Of course, that's all for later.

"I'll kick you to death!"

In the lobby of the governor's yamen, He Maocai angrily scolded and kicked Jiang Qianhu's shoulder.

Jiang Qianhu knelt on one leg, and when he saw him kicking him, the person in charge of the soldiers, his hands and feet were still agile, so he instinctively flashed, He Maocai stepped on the air, did not stand firmly, and fell down, Jiang Qianhu didn't dare to hide, knelt there and put his hands up, and supported him.

Zheng Michang was already annoyed to death when he sat there, and when he saw He Maocai making such a fuss again, his two eyebrows immediately wrinkled together.

With a "snap", He Maocai was angry and anxious at this time, and after being held by him, it was another slap in the face, so Jiang Qianhu didn't hide this time, and took a slap.

He Maocai panted: "Two thousand households, with hundreds of soldiers, a few people can't be killed, what do you and the court do to raise you people!" ”

Jiang Qianhu was also stubborn at this time: "He is a prison officer, and the adults don't give us instructions, and we don't have the right to kill criminals." ”

"You're not going to let him hook Zhu?" He Mao realized that what he said was reasonable, and although he was still speaking sharply when he said this, he obviously lost the momentum he had just now.

After all, it was a confidant, Jiang Qianhu's expression calmed down at this time, he no longer argued, raised his head and said: "My lord, this person is a lifeless person, this time he is out of the way to do it with the province." They also sent someone to report to Hu Butang, and their subordinates thought that this matter was a big problem, and the adults had to hurry up and get an idea. ”

"You go down first." Zheng Michang interjected.

Jiang Qianhu: "Yes." He saluted, stood up and walked out.

He Maocai's two eyes were empty all of a sudden, and his mind was obviously thinking wildly, and he slowly looked at Zheng Michang.

"You say, what should I do?" Zheng Michang asked him.

He Maocai: "You are dead or alive, what else can I do?" If he doesn't kill people, he only kills him! ”

Zheng Michang: "How to kill?" ”

He Maocai: "Knife chopping axe, poison noose, any one will do!" ”

Zheng Michang: "I asked you for what reason you used to kill him?" ”

He Maocai: "Communicating with the widow and disrupting the national policy, you can kill him for any reason." ”

Zheng Michang sighed: "The big hat doesn't work, let's be honest." ”

He Maocai: "How else can you be real?" The Japanese were all put on the execution ground, and at three o'clock in the afternoon, the prison officials dared to indulge in the criminals, and this was a capital crime. ”

"This one doesn't stand." Zheng Michang's tone was also a little impatient, "There is no confession, no case file, the person who was arrested in the morning arrived in Hangzhou in the morning, and said that it was a sentence of more than ten years, how could you show such a big handle for people to hold!" ”

He Maocai was stunned by Zheng Michang's words, and his heart was even more angry, and the sweat flowed down his face on the hot day, and he turned back to the chair and grabbed the fan from the coffee table and fanned it vigorously.

"Have you released the dozen or so widows in the prison?" Zheng Michang stared at He Maocai.

He Maocai replied: "Not yet." ”

Zheng Michang: "I can't put it anymore." And the silk that was promised to the Japanese can no longer be given. ”

"Then the only way to do that Inoue Shishiro and those Diao people in prison is to do it immediately!" He Maocai's eyes showed a fierce light again, "Then I will immediately detain Hai Rui with this article!" ”

Zheng Michang: "Who to send?" ”

He Maocai: "Tell Jiang Qianhu to leave immediately, and he and Xu Qianhu will do it together." ”

"You!" Zheng Michang let out a long sigh, "Can two thousand households detain the magistrate?" ”

He Maocai patted his head: "It's terrible." But neither of us can get involved now. ”

Zheng Michang: "Tell Gao Hanwen to go." ”

He Maocai's eyes lit up.

Zheng Michang: "Tell Jiang Qianhu and Xu Qianhu to do the first thing first, and tell Gao Hanwen to arrive on the back foot and let him detain Hai Rui." It must be decided before Hu Zongxian arrives in Chun'an. ”

He Maocai finally understood: "It just so happens that the matter of buying land will be handled by Gao Hanwen and Shen Yishi there." ”

Zheng Michang: "This is the last move. If you can't do it, you and I can sit in the prison van by ourselves. ”

In order to soothe the atmosphere, Zheng Michang specially came to the yamen of the prefect of Hangzhou in civilian clothes after putting on the lights. At this time, sitting in the middle seat, he looked at Gao Hanwen warmly, with a gentle face.

Of course, Gao Hanwen could only see him in civilian clothes. The literati had a strong body and knew that the setbacks he had experienced this time were all related to the person in front of him, so although he was sick and weak, Gao Hanwen was sitting there with his body upright, not hiding his disobedience in his heart and his indifference in appearance.

"I've said everything I need to say." Zheng Michang said gently, "It stands to reason that you should be allowed to rest for a few more days." But it's a matter of national policy, Chun'an and Jiande's side can only let you serve with illness tomorrow. Fortunately, I took the waterway, and I also found a good man for you to accompany you all the way. Things have to be done, and illnesses have to be nourished. ”

"I'll go. Don't want anything either. Gao Hanwen replied so simply. This made Zheng Michang stunned for a moment, and he couldn't help but stare at him, as if he wanted to see what he was thinking in his heart.

Gao Hanwen's face was indifferent, and Zheng Michang really couldn't see his mind for a while.

Zheng Michang: "Senior Brother Gao, this time I want to implement the national policy of changing rice to mulberry. Chun'an and Jiande will plant mulberry seedlings in June anyway. ”

Gao Hanwen: "I proposed the proposal of 'reform and relief', and I know what to do. ”

Hearing him say this, Zheng Michang had no bottom in his heart: "The grain of the Weaving Bureau has been transported to the disaster county, you can't buy fields, you can't insert mulberry seedlings, Gaofutai, you should know what the consequences are." ”

Gao Hanwen stood up: "Zhongcheng, if there are no other orders, the subordinates should prepare to pack." ”

"Okay, okay." Zheng Michang responded vainly, so he had no choice but to stand up, "Also, tomorrow the province will send troops to escort you." On a hot day, it's best to cool off early. ”

Gao Hanwen: "If you are sick, I will not send Zhongcheng." ”

This is a faux pas of officialdom, Zheng Michang was stunned, and immediately said: "There is no need to hold that courtesy." He walked out alone.

Gao Hanwen sat down slowly again, and he couldn't hear Zheng Michang's footsteps, so he shouted weakly, "Someone is coming." ”

An attendant walked in.

Gao Hanwen: "Fetch buckets of water." ”

The attendant was stunned for a moment: "My lord, do you want hot water or cold water." ”

Gao Hanwen: "Dig buckets of well water and wash the ground." ”

"Yes." The attendant looked at him again and walked out.

The attendant had just gone out, and a scribe came in in a hurry, and called softly, "My lord." ”

Gao Hanwen looked at him slowly: "Say it." ”

The scribe: "The weaving bureau has arrived." ”

Gao Hanwen didn't react at all.

Scrivener: "It's strange, it's from the back door, it seems that he deliberately wants to avoid Lord Zheng." He said that he had something important to see the adults. ”

Gao Hanwen: "Come on." Let them all come. ”

When the scribe saw that he looked strange, he replied in a low voice, "If the adult is unwell, the younger one will go back to him?" ”

Gao Hanwen: "Did I say I was unwell?" ”

"Yes." The scribe hurried out.

The attendant came in with a bucket of water, knowing that he was going to wash the floor, and there was a scoop floating on the water.

Gao Hanwen: "The chair and the land in front of me have been washed." ”

"Yes." The attendant scooped up a scoop of water and poured it off the back of the chair where Zheng Michang had sit.

It's time to wash the floor, and the entourage said to Gao Hanwen: "My lord, the little ones are going to wash the floor, are you going to rest first?" ”

Gao Hanwen: "My side is clean, just wash that side." ”

The attendant had no choice but to scoop up the water, and from a distance from Gao Hanwen, he carefully splashed the water.

"Wait." The scribe shouted at the entrance of the hall, and the attendant stopped.

The scribe walked in quickly and said to Gao Hanwen: "My lord, the people from the Weaving Bureau are here." ”

As he spoke, the man himself had already walked in, wearing a black satin cloak over a hood on a hot day.

Gao Hanwen looked at him.

The man sat down on the chair across from him and took off the hood on his headβ€”it was Yang Jinshui!

Gao Hanwen didn't know him, and the scribe and his attendant obviously didn't know him either, but when they saw him wearing a wingless gauze hat inlaid with gold thread, they were all stunned.

Yang Jinshui said to the scribe and his entourage: "I have some important things to tell Gaofutai, you all go down." ”

This was a natural momentum, and the scribe and his entourage did not wait for Gao Hanwen's orders, so they all retreated.

Yang Jinshui looked at Gao Hanwen: "Gao Futai doesn't know me, I am Yang Jinshui." ”

Gao Han stood up suddenly.

Yang Jinshui: "Sit, sit." ”

Gao Hanwen slowly sat down again.

Yang Jinshui: "I know everything about Yun Niang." The four minions all hit the board. I'm here to tell you that I don't recognize the words you wrote, and no one can coerce you. ”

Gao Hanwen's eyes flashed, and he couldn't believe it for a while.

Yang Jinshui: "Do you know why they did this?" ”

Gao Hanwen was a little excited: "Please teach Gonggong Yang." ”

Yang Jinshui: "They are going to splash dirty water on the emperor's face!" ”

Gao Hanwen was shocked and looked at Yang Jinshui with wide eyes.

Yang Jinshui: "Did Zheng Michang come to you just now?" ”

Gao Hanwen nodded.

Yang Jinshui: "I want you to go to Chun'an and Jiande to buy land." ”

Gao Hanwen: "Yes. ”

Yang Jinshui: "You promised to go?" ”

Gao Hanwen: "It's nothing more than death." ”

"No, no, no." Yang Jinshui stood up, "You can't die, and you can't die." Damn it's them. ”

Gao Hanwen only looked at him with wide eyes.

Yang Jinshui: "Do you know what name they went to buy the land?" ”

Gao Hanwen: "I don't know yet. ”

Yang Jinshui: "Then let me tell you, they are now buying fields under the brand of the Weaving Bureau." In other words, they went to buy land under the brand of the palace. ”

Gao Hanwen somewhat understood: "They dare to do this? ”

Yang Jinshui: "Look at you, you're still an understanding person." Didn't Zheng Michang want you to go tomorrow? If you still go, you don't go to buy land, you go to help me do something. ”

Gao Hanwen: "Father-in-law Yang, please speak." ”

Yang Jinshui: "Take down all the lanterns on the boat!" Tell everyone that the Weaving Bureau did not take a grain of grain to buy fields! ”

Gao Hanwen looked at Yang Jinshui, and there was a glimmer of light in his eyes......

The weather in Beijing in May this year was also surprisingly hot. When he returned to King Yu's mansion, Feng Bao was already sweating profusely, and as soon as he stepped into the courtyard, he heard King Yu's loud and angry voice in the house, and he stopped slightly.

"Send someone to see it again! Why hasn't Feng Bao, the minion, returned? ”

As soon as King Yu's voice fell, the cry of the prince came again.

Feng Bao hurriedly ran over, and said loudly: "The prince is crying, the eldest companion is back!" ”

"Amitabha! On such a hot day, I have been crying since the afternoon until now. Concubine Li was already sweating, and she was in a hurry to hand the prince to Feng Bao.

"Master, the slave is sweating." Feng Bao hesitated.

Concubine Li: "Who is not Khan?" Coaxed first. ”

Feng Bao: "Yes. After answering, he smiled, patted his hands lightly, and took over the world.

Shizi immediately stopped crying, and looked at Feng Bao's sweaty smiling face by the light, and giggled.

King Yu was also quiet at this time, looking at Feng Bao deeply.

Feng Bao bowed to King Yu, and his eyes turned to the two palace maids who were waiting beside him.

King Yu said to the two palace maids, "Go to the front and tell them to bring two more pieces of ice from the cellar." ”

Two palace maids: "Yes, Lord Wang." He replied and walked out.

Only King Yu, Concubine Li and Feng Bao holding the prince were left in the house.

Feng Bao approached King Yu with his son in his arms, and said in a low voice: "The words of the prince were conveyed to Gonggong Lu in the afternoon. Gonggong Lu also asked the slave to tell the prince that he knew what was going on in Zhejiang. ”

"That's all?" Yuwang stared at him.

Feng Bao: "The minion hasn't finished yet. Gonggong Lu said that the Ming Dynasty belongs to our Zhu family, and he understands the prince's love for his subjects. Tonight, the Lu Gong Guild will find a knot and tell the Long Live Lord. ”

King Yu's face stretched, and he slowly looked at Concubine Li.

At this time, Concubine Li actually wrung out a wet handkerchief from the basin and handed it to Feng Bao.

"Kill the minions!" Feng Bao knelt down with Shizi in his arms, "Master, you can't help it." ”

Yuwang: "Take it, wipe the sweat." ”

Feng Bao hesitated at this time: "The slave will really lose his life." "Holding the Son of the World in one hand, palm facing up in the other, waiting there.

Concubine Li shook off the wet handkerchief and put it on his palm, Feng Bao's hand trembled a little, and slowly wiped the sweat from his face.

Shizi's eyes were wide open, and he looked at him steadily.

In the blink of an eye, at the beginning of the sixth month of the lunar calendar, Beijing, which has been in Jiajing for 40 years, has the hottest Futian in 20 years. At this time in previous years, even if there was no wind in the entire city of Beijing, the Forbidden City would have the "heroic wind of the king" through the hall due to the feng shui of heaven and earth. But this year, for ten days in a row, the willow tops in the night moat have not been moved. In addition to the concubine and the leading eunuchs of the twenty-four yamen, there are ice cubes in the living room to calm the heat, and they can still survive this scorching heat. The other 100,000 eunuchs and palace maids were miserable, and their long clothes and robes had to be worn according to the rules, and many people's prickly heat grew from their bodies to their faces, and those with severe symptoms also had boils, swollen and painful carbuncles, so that they could not be on errands as usual. This year, Shang Yaoji urgently adjusted a lot of heatstroke medicine from the outside, and Ouchi finally didn't die of heat.

And the doors and windows of Yuxi Palace were all closed day and night at this time, and Long Live Lord stayed inside, in the eyes of ordinary people, it was truly incredible.

The two eunuchs on duty at night were sweating profusely, one holding a wine jar and the other holding a wooden foot basin, and walked lightly to the outside of the temple gate. The two of them put down the jar and footbasin and listened quietly with their ears sideways.

There was a faint sound of Jiajing reciting green words inside. The two did not dare to move, left the temple gate, walked to the bottom of the steps, lifted the corner of the robe and fanned it desperately.

A eunuch: "This God, it didn't snow last year, and it didn't blow on a rainy day this year." This is going to take people. ”

Another eunuch: "I heard that a lot of people have died of heat outside in the past few days." Shuntianfu began to spend money to boil herbal tea. ”

A eunuch: "It's also the body of our long live gods." The doors and windows of the cold sky were all open, and the windows and doors of the hot people were all closed. ”

Another eunuch: "The old ancestor is also a half-immortal body. is the only one who can stay up with the Long Live Lord. Stop, go. ”

The two eunuchs hurriedly walked lightly to the door of the hall again, listened to it again, and the sound of chanting green words really stopped.

A eunuch called softly, "Ancestor, the minions have brought wine and wooden basins. ”

After a while, the door of the hall opened slightly, and Lu Fang appeared behind the door, sweating on his face.

The two eunuchs hurriedly knelt down: "Ancestor, there are dozens of catties of wine in this jar." The grandchildren moved in, right? ”

Lu Fang: "I'm not that old. ”

The two eunuchs replied almost simultaneously: "Yes." The ancestor still has to accompany the long-lived lord for 10,000 years. After saying this, they all got up again. The eunuch holding the wine jar picked up the wine jar and handed it through the door, and Lu Fang took the wine jar and walked in. After a while, he turned back to the door and took the wooden basin: "You stay." ”

"Yes." The two eunuchs stepped back.

Because the doors and windows were closed, the incense lit in the room could not be dissipated, and the freshly burned green paper in the bronze basin in front of the altar was also emitting smoke, and the dormitory was filled with smoke.

Jiajing was still wearing a thick Songjiang chintz robe, but at this time the placket was opened, revealing the white muslin shorts and trousers inside, and a pair of shallow black satin cloth shoes under his feet. Sit on that bright yellow embroidered pier. As the eunuchs said "the body of a god", he didn't even have a drop of sweat on his face.

With sweat on his face, Lu Fang brought the wooden basin to Jiajing's feet and put it down, and then lifted the lid on the wine jar, and a strong aroma of wine came to his nose.

Jiajing also smelled: "Is it Moutai?" ”

Lu Fang: "Sixty-year-old Moutai was just found in the cellar of the wine vinegar noodle bureau. ”

Jiajing: "A few years older than me?" ”

"Only this kind of aging can be called the essence of the five grains, and the five elements of gold, wood, water, fire, and earth are all available, so that it can match the immortal body of the master." As he spoke, he picked up the jar and leaned against the edge of the tub, and poured the wine into the tub.

Putting the wine jar aside, Lu Fang picked up a low stool again, put it next to Jiajing, sat down, and rolled his trouser legs.

The two slender legs were exposed, white, but there were red and swollen spots on them.

Lu Fang held his left foot and slowly put it into the wine in the wooden basin, and raised his head: "Master, it doesn't hurt, right?" ”

Jiajing frowned just now, and then he was careless: "Wash yours." ”

Lu Fang: "Yes." Then he gently rubbed the wine on his calves and feet.

After rubbing one foot for a while, Lu Fang gently picked it up, put this foot on the edge of the wooden basin, lifted a low stool and sat on Jiajing's right side, and then picked up his right foot and slowly put it into the wine, and gently wiped it.

Jiajing looked at his left foot with concern, strangely, the red spot on his left foot was immediately not as red as just now, nor was it as swollen as just now.

Jiajing was as happy as a child: "Good slave, where did you get this recipe, it really works." ”

Lu Fang gently rubbed his right foot: "The slave knows what to do." This recipe was still said by Li Shizhen when he was on an errand in the palace. ”

Jiajing also remembered: "The Li Shizhen recommended by the King of Chu? ”

Lu Fang: "The master has a good memory. ”

Jiajing: "This person is okay to see a doctor. It's a pity that if you don't realize the Tao, you have to cultivate for a lifetime. ”

Lu Fang: "Not everyone can understand the Tao. How many lifetimes has the master cultivated? How can others compare. ”

The right foot was also wiped off, Lu Fang picked it up and put it on the side of the wooden basin, walked over shortly, put down the left trouser leg for him, and put the left foot into the black satin shallow cloth shoes. Then he walked short to the right, lowered his right trouser leg, and put his right foot in the other cloth shoe.

After serving the Long Live Lord, Lu Fang picked up the wooden basin, walked to the wine jar, and slowly poured it in.

Jiajing was a little surprised: "What are you doing with the wine that washed your feet?" ”

Lu Fang replied while pouring wine: "The people below all believe it, saying that the immortal body of the Long Live Lord, the things that are stained with immortal energy, are all looking forward to getting it." And it's a 60-year-old Moutai, it's a pity to fall down, reward people. When he had finished pouring the wine, he laid down the basin and closed the lid of the jar again.

Jiajing immediately made a serious face: "This is you." Cultivating oneself is the way of cultivation, where is the immortal energy of the things that I have touched? Don't fall for them. Besides, if you take out this wine and let people drink it, they will also get sick. To reward people, there is no shortage of things in the palace. ”

"Hmm." Lu Fang's answer was a little strange, like choking in his throat, Jiajing looked at him, Lu Fang turned around, walked to a jade basin held by the red sandalwood next to him, pretended to wash his hands with water, and picked up a handkerchief to wipe the sweat on his face, but Jiajing saw that he was wiping his tears, so he stared at him tightly.

Lu Fang picked up a string of prayer beads on the altar next to him, walked over and handed it to Jiajing: "Master Shengming." And the servants told them to take the jar and pour it out. ”

"What's going on? Hiding from my tears. Jiajing stared at him and asked.

Lu Fang knelt down beside him: "I heard the master tell the slave not to give this wine to his subordinates to drink, which shows that the master has a bodhisattva heart." Thinking of the fact that so many subjects of my Ming Dynasty had to rely on the master to protect him alone, the slave felt sad. At this point, tears flowed down again.

Jiajing: "Is there another disaster somewhere?" ”

Lu Fang: "There are some droughts in the north, and there is no catastrophe yet. The minion sighed not for this, for fear that the master's benevolent heart would be ruined by those who had broken hearts and livers. ”

Jiajing was alert: "What did you hear?" ”

Lu Fang: "Yang Jinshui has an 800-mile expedited copy, which was sent in this evening." ”

"Is there a mess in the matter of changing rice to mulberry?" Jiajing asked forcefully.

"The master promised the slave first, don't be angry when you see it, it's hot on your body." As he spoke, Lu Fang took out the express letter with three chicken feathers stuck to it from his arms, and took out Yang Jinshui's belief from it.

Jiajing looked up.

Lu Fang took a tulle lantern from the desk again, stood behind Jiajing, and shone it.

After reading it, Jiajing immediately threw the letter to the ground and almost shouted: "Call Yan Song!" ”

Yan Song is really old. Not long after standing there, the sweat spread over the long shou eyebrows, blurred his eyes, and Jiajing, who was sitting there, became more and more blurred in his eyes.

"There was no snow in a month last year. Since the ambush this year, it has not been windy for more than ten days. I told you to ask Qin Tianjian, what did Qin Tianjian say? Jiajing's voice also sounded far and near to Yan Song's ears, if there was nothing.

In addition to the usual altar to repair Jiao, Jiajing will give Yan Song to sit on the low pier as usual when the monarch and ministers are talking, and on such a hot day, he called himself overnight, and actually let himself stand and talk, this is the first time in ten years. Yan Song didn't understand why it started, but he already keenly felt that the Holy Grace had declined.

But Yan Song is Yan Song after all, and he didn't think about his situation today, but grabbed Jiajing's question, and slowly replied: "Back to the emperor, the minister didn't ask." ”

Jiajing: "What? ”

Yan Song: "Celestial phenomena can be discussed by non-courtiers. The emperor is the Son of Heaven, and it is a matter of celestial phenomena, and only the emperor can summon the Qin Heavenly Eunuch to ask in person. ”

"What do you mean, it didn't snow last year, and it didn't get windy this year, it's all because of me?" Jiajing's words seemed to pour into his ears from a long distance.

Yan Song still has internal strength, and when he is eighty, he actually lifted his robe and knelt down: "There are clouds in "Shangshu": three years of abundance, three years of apology, one small disaster in six years, and one major disaster in twelve years. The celestial phenomena were like this in Yao Shun. It is the duty of the ministers to store grain in good years to prepare for famine and to provide relief to the victims in famine years. ”

Seeing him kneeling there at this age, his hat and robe wet, and still trying his best to defend his holy name when answering, Jiajing's heart suddenly softened again, as if he remembered his hard work in the past twenty years, so he was silent.

Lu Fang immediately said: "Pavilion Elder, the emperor didn't ask you to kneel, after all, you are eighty years old, so let's get up and talk back." So saying, he went over and picked him up.

At this time, Yan Song stood up with the help of Lu Fang.

Lu Fang looked at Jiajing again.

Jiajing glanced at the low pier next to him.

Lu Fang hurriedly moved over the dungeon: "Pavilion Elder, the emperor gave you to sit." ”

Yan Songhan's eyes were blurred: "Thank you, Your Majesty." With Lu Fang's support, he sat down again.

Jiajing no longer circled with him: "You just said that there is a famine in a good year, and a disaster relief in a famine year, what is the situation of the two flooded counties in Zhejiang?" ”

Yan Song: "In accordance with the strategy of 'reform and relief', while helping the victims, we are implementing the national policy of changing rice to mulberry. ”

Jiajing slowly looked at Lu Fang, and Lu Fang also looked at Jiajing innocently at this time.

Jiajing: "You go back and ask Yan Shifan how things are going in Zhejiang, and then go back and forth." ”

Yan Song: "Yes." "Stood up.

Lu Fang led him towards the veil.

Jiajing looked at Yan Songlongzhong's back, and his eyes were a little dazed.

The sound of closing the door of the hall, after a while, Lu Fang came back.

"Yan Song is old, and he can't take care of the things below." Jiajing said.

Lu Fang: "Some things are really difficult for him. ”

Jiajing: "Let's see what he says tomorrow." If Yan Shifan is not filial, he will not be loyal. Under the banner of the Weaving Bureau, he went to buy the fields of the victims, if it was Yan Shifan's idea, Yan Song would ask for his guilt tomorrow. ”

Lu Fang: "The slave thinks the same." As soon as Yan Song pleaded guilty, he immediately issued a 'Di Bao' to inform the provinces. ”

"And the minions you manage are not as knowledgeable as before." Jiajing said and became angry again, "You just said that Yang Jinshui would be there to take down the lantern of the Weaving Bureau. The lantern was taken down, and the reputation of the palace had been lost. How to get it back? This told the minion that he was going to ruin my reputation, so he hung his head on the grain ship! ”

Lu Fang: "The slave will send someone to tell him now." ”

Jiajing: "Send the people of Jinyiwei." Put on civilian clothes and watch for me in Zhejiang. This time, it looks like we're going to have to arrest a few people. ”

Lu Fang: "The slave understands. ”
