Chapter 500: A private interview with Weifu

"Yan Hao and the Cai family, have you softened?"

As soon as Zhu Gaofu woke up, he heard the good news brought by the hussar general, and the strategy offered by Su Wu this morning, Zhu Gaofu thought about it again and again, although there was a certain risk, but it was completely feasible.

This made Zhu Gaoyi feel very good.

"Your Majesty, the spirits of those two have been shaken, and I believe that it will not be long before they surrender and beg for mercy!"

Several lieutenants in the camp opened their mouths, at this time they were one of the few opportunities to be able to talk to the Ming Emperor, if they took this opportunity to behave themselves and be favored by the emperor, then their lives would be soaring, and the prospects were unlimited!

"Haven't you been tamed yet? Leave them alone. ”

Through the location of the opium poppy planting, only the lowest level of the Yan family or other forces behind it was found, and it was difficult to reach the real core personnel.

And Yan Hao and Cai's are different, they can talk to the minds of this group of chaotic ministers and thieves.

Originally, Zhu Gaoxi wanted to use them to wipe out the forces behind him, but after some analysis by Su Wu, he found that there was no need for it.

"Pass my will, let Su Wu change into civilian clothes and come to me, and then you find a few people with strong figures, change into civilian clothes and follow behind me!"

Zhu Gaojiao was in a very happy mood today, and a few days ago he patronized the big families in the south of Pingding, but did not enjoy the scenery of western Sichuan.

This time, we can just take a look at the cultural environment in western Sichuan, and by the way, we can also investigate how the local officials and people live.

It didn't take long for Su Wu to come to Zhu Gao's camp in civilian clothes, accompanied by two sergeants in civilian clothes.

Zhu Gaoyao himself had already changed into civilian clothes, and said to Su Wu with a smile,

"In the early hours of this morning, the general of the dart cavalry led a group of soldiers to exterminate the cottage, and along the way, the road is far away, and the road is bumpy, and it is time for the officers and soldiers in the army to have a good rest."

"Why don't you go to the folk of western Sichuan with me and me today to find out how the lives of the people are?"

But who knows, Su Wu sang against Zhu Gaoyi very inappropriately.

"Your Majesty, you can't be without a king in the court for a day, and I can't be without your majesty for a day!"

"Yang Shiqi is now in the middle of the court to supervise the country, His Majesty has just registered, and the court has not yet completely stabilized, Yang Shiqi alone may not be able to control the court, and His Majesty needs to return quickly!"

"Peace of mind, Su Aiqing, Yang Shiqi's ability, you and I can see it for all to see, before I suppressed the court, the deterrence is still the same, and now if you don't return to the court for a month, the court will be safe and sound!"

Su Wu's opposition, Zhu Gaoyi didn't care, but was very pleased to have such a loyal minister by his side.

"What's more, this folk trip to western Sichuan won't take long, and after the officers and men in the army recover their strength, we will quickly return to the DPRK!"

Seeing that Zhu Gao's mind had been decided, Su Wu did not continue to dissuade him.

Towards evening, Zhu Gaojiao and Su Wu came to a small inn in Hanshou County.

After all, western Sichuan is mountainous and the roads are rugged, and even in this era, it is still quite difficult to walk.

"How many guest officers are there? Is it pointing? Or do you want to stay in a hotel?"

"There are four of them!"

When the shopkeeper heard it, none of these four people spoke with local accents, and although these four people were dusty, first, the noble temperament revealed on the mountain was not ordinary people at first glance.

It's a big deal!

"Okay, there are two good guest rooms in the shop, I don't know how long you will have to stay?"

"Three days, stay here for three days!"

Zhu Gaoyao thought about it, three days should be enough.

"Okay, two first-class rooms in three days, a total of five taels of silver, six cents and six cents, wipe it for you, and I will charge you five taels of silver!"

After Xiao Er finished speaking, the sergeant behind Zhu Gaojiao took the silver and handed it to his hand.

And Zhu Gaoyi was very kind to talk to the shopkeeper:

"The store is very good at doing business, no wonder it is full of people, and the other inns we passed by along the way are all crowded."

"Alas, where are you, guest officer, isn't it that the business has been bad every year, and business is difficult to do, so the boss let us be like this!"

The shopkeeper weighed the silver in his hand, which was full of weight, and then continued with a smile.

"If it were a few years ago, if we dared to do this, we would wipe the guests at will, and the boss would not kill us with a knife!"

As he spoke, the shopkeeper immediately complained again.

"In the past few decades, we have suffered an old sin, we just drove the Yuan people away, we only recuperate, and it didn't take long for the civil war of the major feudal kings, and then there were foreign clans who took the opportunity to plunder our money."

"Finally, I am looking forward to a period of relative peace, and then pray for the king, that is, your majesty today, to pacify the major clans in the south, who were originally oppressed by the clans, and we can't live in peace!"

Speaking of this, Su Wugang, who was behind Zhu Gaoyi, wanted to shout, but was stopped by Zhu Gaoyi and asked him to listen to what the shopkeeper said first.

"No, it's just been settled for a long time, the first emperor died, and our people here have been panicking for a long time, and we don't know when there will be a new moth."

"It has to be those who are officials, whether it is a continuous war, or a flood or an earthquake, they all eat and drink spicy food, unlike us, the slightest bit of wind and grass is terrifying."

"Alas, Xing, the people are suffering, the people are dead, the people are suffering!"

Zhu Gaoyi also sighed according to the words of the shopkeeper.

"Isn't it, I ......"

But after the shopkeeper tossed the ingot of silver a few more times, he suddenly stopped talking, and then looked at Zhu Gaojiao and the others with some frightened eyes.

"A few guest officers, the little one was too talkative just now, a few upstairs, please!"

The shopkeeper suddenly buried his head very low, not daring to look directly at Zhu Gao, Su Wu and the others, and they were not chatting about anything, but led them to the two upper rooms very neatly.

"Little brother, why don't you speak?"

Facing the change of the shopkeeper, Su Wu was also a little curious, but who knew that when the junior heard Su Wu's words, he trembled and hurriedly waved his hand.

"It's a little bit of a mouthful just now, if a few people can use something to say hello to a small place, a few people's meals will arrive soon!"

Fine sweat was already breaking out on Xiao Er's forehead, and the hand holding the ingot of silver had already begun to turn blue.

At this moment, he had begun to regret what he had just said,

Because the silver in his hand is different from the silver used by other guests!

The silver given by these guests just now turned out to be official silver!

It is very likely that these people are all court officials! (End of chapter)
