A moment later, Hai Rui, led by the guards, calmly entered the governor's palace.

"Xiaguan Hairui, I have seen the Governor, I have seen the Political Envoy!"

As soon as he entered it, Hai Rui saluted respectfully.

"Hai Rui, what are you doing in the Governor's Palace? Could it be a change of heart? ”

Zheng Michang was eager to get an answer from Hai Rui's mouth, and immediately asked.

"It's not."

Hearing Zheng Michang's inquiry, Hai Rui just shook his head and responded.

"Then you dare to come to the Governor's Palace? Your Excellency the Governor, the lower officials suggest that this Hai Jui be put in prison and punished him for one crime first. ”

After hearing Hai Rui's answer, Zheng Michang was quite annoyed and asked Hu Zongxian on the side.

"Then tell me, what crime should the official find to settle on Hai Rui?"

After Hu Zongxian listened to Zheng Michang's words, he did not get angry, but asked rhetorically.

"This ...... This, uh! ”

Hu Zongxian's rhetorical question made Zheng Michang difficult, and after thinking about it, he did not find a suitable charge.

"Your Excellency the Governor, the lower officials are here to inform you of something!"

Hai Rui bowed slightly to Hu Zongxian, and then said in a deep voice.

"What's the matter, just say it."

Hu Zongxian's face was still indifferent, and he said lightly.

"Jin Yiwei is also secretly investigating this matter, and he has also been instructed by His Majesty!"

Hai Rui paused for a moment, and then dropped such a bombshell.

"What...... What? Jinyiwei! Jin Yiwei is also secretly investigating this matter? ”

As soon as the words fell, Zheng Michang on the side took the lead in losing his breath, his expression changed greatly, and he was shocked.

"It's over, it's over, Jinyiwei has shot! It's all over! ”

As if he had lost all the strength of his body, Zheng Michang slumped to the ground and muttered.

Only the emperor can mobilize the Jinyi Guard, combined with what Hai Rui said before, that is to say, His Majesty has long been suspicious of this, and now he is sending the Jinyi Guard to investigate, more to confirm his guess.

If it is dealt with according to the laws of the Ming Dynasty, Zheng Michang feels that his head is about to fall to the ground.

Hu Zongxian looked at Zheng Michang, who was sitting on the ground, his brows couldn't help frowning, and he scolded angrily: "Look at your useless appearance, get up for this official!" ”

Hearing Hu Zongxian's angry rebuke, Zheng Michang got up from the ground suddenly, but the whole person still looked like he had lost his soul.

"Hai Rui, you said earlier that the Jinyi Guard appeared, do you have any credentials?"

Hu Zongxian turned his gaze to Hai Rui, and then confirmed.

"Report to the Governor, the brocade-clothed guard showed the subordinate the ivory waist plate on his waist, which was engraved with the words of the eastern secretary of the brocade-clothed guard."

In the face of Hu Zongxian's inquiry, Hai Rui did not hide anything and told everything he knew.

After listening to Hai Rui's description, Hu Zongxian nodded and said slowly.

"Well, that person is indeed Jinyiwei."

"Ah, it's really over!"

Originally, Zheng Michang still had a trace of luck in his heart, hoping to learn from Hu Zongxian that the brocade guard was a fake! Now that Hu Zongxian has confirmed it, the last glimmer of hope in his heart has been shattered.

"Your Excellency Governor, the lower officials still have some matters, so I will leave first."

After Zheng Michang finished speaking, he arched his hand to Hu Zongxian, and was about to walk outside the Governor's Palace.

"Wait, where are you going?"

But Hu Zongxian spoke out behind his back and stopped Zheng Michang.

"Your Excellency the Governor, the lower officials want to go back and prepare for the future."

A smile that was more ugly than crying appeared on Zheng Michang's face, and he responded weakly.

"Come back to this officer!"

Hu Zongxian laughed angrily at Zheng Michang's performance and said in a deep voice.

"Your Excellency, is there a way to deal with this?"

Seeing that Hu Zongxian was still calm and breezy, the light of hope reappeared in Zheng Michang's eyes.

And Hu Zongxian just sighed and said slowly: "Where did the matter come from now?" Your Majesty has already sent the Jinyi Guard to investigate! ”

"It's better to write a note to Your Majesty as soon as possible and explain your mistakes! When the time comes, it will be up to His Majesty to deal with us. ”

After Hu Zongxian finished saying this, he turned to Hai Rui on the side and said, "These days, you won't leave the Governor's Mansion for the time being!" I'll write a letter to my family later, and I'll tell you that I'm safe. ”

Hai Rui on the side also understood the meaning of Hu Zongxian's words, the governor was afraid that he would be plotted!

Immediately, Hai Rui bowed slightly to Hu Zongxian and said respectfully: "Yes, Lord Governor!" ”

……

Beijing, Yanfu.

Since Yan Shifan was reprimanded by his father Yan Song last time, in recent days, he has been studying the books on his father Yan Song's bookshelf diligently, hoping to make progress.

"Hiss~ The meaning of this is really obscure! It took me several times to understand what it meant. ”

Yan Shifan closed the book in his hand, then picked up the teacup on the side and took a sip.

Just then, the butler's voice came from outside the door.

"Little Pavilion Elder, there are two letters here, one is sent by your student Gao Hanwen, and the other is sent by Zheng Michang and He Maocai!"

"Well, bring it in."

Yan Shifan put down the teacup in his hand, and then said to the housekeeper outside the door.

Hearing only a 'squeak', Yan Shifan's door was pushed open by the housekeeper, and after handing over the two letters to Yan Shifan, the housekeeper did not make any stops, and soon left respectfully.

"What letter did Hanwen write to the teacher again?"

With such doubts, Yan Shifan first opened Gao Hanwen's letter and carefully read the contents on it.

"Teacher, student Gao Hanwen, how are you doing lately? At present, the process of changing rice to mulberry in Zhejiang is being carried out smoothly......"

After Yan Shifan finished reading the content in his heart, he breathed a long sigh of relief and said to himself silently: "It seems that I, a student, still make me feel more relieved." ”

After resting for a while, Yan Shifan turned to open the letter sent by Zheng Michang and them, and after seeing the content of the letter, he couldn't help frowning.

"What? This Shen Yishi actually wants to secretly traffic illicit salt! The key is still at this juncture! ”

Yan Shifan slowly put down the letter in his hand, and the anger in his heart began to rise, and then he slammed the table and scolded angrily: "This Shen Yishi is really impatient, and he actually dares to start the idea of selling illicit salt at the critical moment of changing rice to mulberry!" ”

Yan Shifan immediately put away the letter and knocked on the door of his father Yan Song.

"Father, the child has something important to report."

After knocking on the door, Yan Shifan stood at the door and said respectfully.

"Well, come in."

Yan Song's voice came from the room.

Yan Shifan did not hesitate at all, and then pushed the door in.

When he saw Yan Song, who was wearing reading glasses and dealing with official business, he handed out the letter in his hand and said in a deep voice: "Father, it's not good!" Listening to Zheng Michang, this Shen Yishi has not been honest recently. ”

"I heard that he also wants to secretly sell illicit salt!"

Yan Shifan paused for a moment and then added.

"Oh, show me."

After listening to Yan Shifan's words, Yan Song took the letter from his hand, and after patiently reading the contents of the letter, he commanded.

"This Shen Yishi, I really don't know what to do, and I actually want to traffic illicit salt! Isn't it good to be my Yan family's dog with peace of mind? ”

Well, since he is disobedient, let's clean him up by the way. ”

"Father, who is going to do this?"

"Who else? Leave it to your two subordinates. ”

Yan Song glanced at Yan Shifan and commanded.

"Yes, father, the child will write to them later."

"Well, get this matter done as soon as possible, Shen Yishi is disobedient, and then there will be another person."

Speaking of which, Saturdays and Sundays are updated a little earlier, and usually, the normal update O_o
