Chapter 342: Zheng and He's Plans

"You say, should we take this opportunity to behave well?"

He Maocai suppressed his inner thoughts, turned his gaze to Zheng Michang, and asked tentatively.

Who knew that Zheng Michang just glanced at He Maocai, and said with disdain.

"Performance, how to behave?"

"There is a way, soldiers, the major affairs of the country, the place of death and life, and the way of survival, must not be overlooked."

"Things like marching and fighting still have to be handed over to professional people, let's forget about it!"

Hearing this, He Maocai not only did not show the slightest displeasure on his face, but agreed with it.

"Yes, this kind of thing like marching and fighting still has to be left to professional people, but we can find another way!"

He Maocai paused when he said this, and continued to add.

"Take your Lao Zheng as an example, you have been a political envoy for so many years, and you must be quite familiar with the customs and customs of the whole Zhejiang, and you probably know the possible hiding places of those Japanese robbers."

"And I, who have been in charge of supervision for a long time, have those officials' pigtails in my hands, but if those guys have the idea of disobeying the yang and the yin, I can clean them up!"

After listening to He Maocai's words, Zheng Michang also understood what he meant, and said slowly.

"You mean that we are responsible for removing obstacles for the Governor and ensuring the smooth implementation of the plan?"

He Mao saw that Zheng Michang understood what he meant, and hurriedly nodded yes.

"That's what I mean, although we can't march and fight, but we still have a lot of experience in the officialdom!"

"No matter how bad it is, we can show our faces more in front of the Governor, and maybe when the time comes, in the note written by the Governor to His Majesty, we can also mention our names by the way."

After listening to He Maocai's analysis, Zheng Michang also felt that there was a lot to be done.

Then, I saw him pick up the wine jug on the table, pour a glass of wine each, and said excitedly.

"Lao He, why didn't I think that your brain was so good before?"

"Come, I'll toast you!"

When He Maocai heard this, his face was full of disdain, and after clinking glasses with Zheng Michang, he drank all the wine in the cup and patted his chest.

"That's because you don't know the goods, there is a way that Shibei should be impressed for three days, I have been in the position of the inspector for so many years, and I don't eat dry food!"

Soon, the atmosphere in the room became warm, and the two of them pushed the cups and changed the lamps, so happy.

Later, I saw He Maocai drunkenly hugging Zheng Michang's shoulders and saying slowly.

"Lao Zheng, do you know, that Hai Rui has become a big official in the capital!"

Zheng Michang smelled the smell of wine on He Maocai's body, frowned slightly, and was about to push it away, when he suddenly saw He Maocai mention Hai Rui, he stopped the movement in his hand and immediately asked.

"Hai Rui, didn't I remember that he had been in the Inspectorate for a short time, and he was promoted so quickly?"

When He Maocai heard this, he got up and poured himself a glass of wine, his eyes full of loneliness.

"That's true, Hai Rui is now the right capital of the imperial history!"

"Lao Zheng, you say, did we do something wrong, if we were ......"

Before He Maocai's words were finished, he was coldly interrupted by Zheng Michang.

"What nonsense, if it weren't for the elder and them all these years, the two of us would have died eight hundred times a long time ago!"

"If Hai Rui didn't have the support of Zhao Zhenji, the minister of the Imperial Mission, he would only be a magistrate for the rest of his life."

"As for us, we can only go all the way to the dark."

After Zheng Michang finished speaking, he was suddenly completely interested, so he had to pick up the wine glass and speak to He Maocai.

"Alright, let's not talk about that, let's drink!"

Seeing this, He Mao was no longer entangled, and took advantage of the situation to pick up the wine glass.

"Cheers!"

"!"

……

Time flies, and in a blink of an eye, it is the day when Hai Jui officially departs.

This time, he will take a boat through the Grand Canal to Kaifeng Mansion in Henan Province to investigate whether the actual amount of grain stored in the local granary is consistent with the amount recorded in the account books.

The wharf had long been under martial law, and all the idlers had been driven away, and everywhere there were solemn-looking soldiers with weapons in their hands, and from time to time a group of guards passed by.

In the dark, there are still a few pairs of eyes, who have been paying attention to every move on the dock, and no wind or grass can escape their eyes, they are the brocade guards sent by Jiajing to protect Hai Rui's thoroughness.

When Hai Rui got out of the sedan chair, the guards who were responsible for guarding his safety hurriedly stepped forward to greet him, his face full of respect.

"Adult, little Xiao Er, this time I am responsible for guarding the safety of adults!"

"Hmm."

Hai Rui didn't say much about this, just bowed his head slightly, and his expression was flat.

On the dock, there were about seven or eight boats parked, except for the one Hai Rui was on, the rest of the boats, except for the accompanying officials, the rest were heavily armed guards, and the number was about seven or eight hundred!

Hai Rui withdrew his gaze, and immediately stepped on the boat under the guidance of Xiao Er.

As soon as Hai Rui got on the boat, he went straight to his cabin, and Zhao Zhenji had previously reminded Hai Rui that if His Majesty had any additional instructions, he would generally send someone to put the letter under his pillow.

Hai Rui fumbled under the pillow for a while, and soon found a letter.

After confirming that no one was paying attention, Hai Rui opened the letter, and the content of the letter was very simple, only a short sentence.

"If necessary, you can send in the local guards!"

Hai Rui read the contents of the letter several times, and after a long time, he saw Hai Rui carefully put away the envelope, looked at the direction where the Forbidden City was located, knelt on the ground, and said in a deep voice.

"Your Majesty Shengming!"

……

The Forbidden City, the Palace of Nourishing the Heart.

At this moment, I saw Lu Fang hurriedly come to the door of the Heart Cultivation Hall and call softly.

"Your Majesty!"

Not long after, from the heart cultivation hall, there was the sound of Jiajing's ancient well without waves.

"Well, come in!"

When Lu Fang heard this, he didn't hesitate at all, and immediately stepped into the Heart Cultivation Palace.

As soon as he entered the Heart Cultivation Palace, he came to Jiajing's side and said softly.

"Your Majesty, Hai Jui has already set off!"

When Jiajing learned the news from Lu Fang's mouth, there was not much surprise on his face, and he said lightly.

"Yes, I see."

Then, I saw Jiajing change his words and ask Lu Fang.

"By the way, what's going on over there with Yan Song?"

When Lu Fang saw this situation, he immediately said what he had learned, without concealing it at all.

"Elder Yan Ge has never received a reply from you, and the whole person is restless."

"Last night, Yan Ge Lao called his son Yan Shifan to the study and asked him whether the notes presented to you had been delivered or not, and the two discussed for a long time!"

Hearing this, Jiajing took his eyes off Lu Fang's body, nodded, and immediately spoke.

"Well, I know, let's let Yan Song wait a few more days!"

Then, as if he was not at ease, Jiajing confirmed to Lu Fang again.

"Feng Bao, have you explained everything?"

When Lu Fang heard this, his expression immediately turned grim, and he responded respectfully.

"Your Majesty, don't worry, the slave maid has already arranged things properly, and there is absolutely no chance of any mistakes!"

Hearing this, Jiajing nodded, and commanded.

"Just grieve him a little bit in this matter, don't reward him on the surface, as for how to reward him secretly, you can look at it!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"
