"Hahaha, Lu Lao, don't worry! I can assure you that I will never be fine, and this Lord Ma will not trouble me. Shi Shilun said with a smile.

"Are you so sure?"

"That's nature!" Seeing that Lu Longqi didn't believe it, Shi Shilun took two steps forward, lowered his voice and said: "Old Lu, my father went to Beijing a few days ago, and he got along with Lord Ma Dema's best friend Yu Zhongyu for a while, and I learned some news from Lord Yu. …… Our Lord Ma is a tiger released by the emperor from Manchuria, and he came to Anhui specifically to eat people! …… Think about it, the emperor won't let him eat me! ”

*******

Ma De didn't expect it, and Lu Longqi and Shi Shilun didn't know either, just when they were thinking about things, in Anqing, there were still a group of people gathering to discuss things. Ma De thought that these people were waiting on the road to block him, but he didn't know that these people were waiting for the rabbit in Anqing. And these people are: Xu Yue, the prefect of Taiping, Li Wenmin, the prefect of Ningguo, Chang Hongzu, the prefect of Huizhou, and Zhang Kai, the prefect of Anqing.

……

"Seventy-four! Hahaha, seventy-four officials, so many people are named, or let's leave Master Futai alone, and go directly to the court! Holding a few copies of the name and looking left and right, Chang Hongzu, the prefect of Huizhou, laughed.

"Brother Chang, don't get too carried away! …… I have said a long time ago that this matter is to be stabbed in the court, and we can't stab it first. At the beginning, the emperor knew that he Shi Shilun was unpopular in Anhui and still settled him over, if we come out, wouldn't we be unable to get along with the emperor? Xu Yue, the prefect of Taiping, reminded.

"Know, haha, seventy-four officials! I see if Shi Shilun can stay in Anhui this time! Chang Hongzu is still proud.

"Then how do we hand over these certificates to the governor?" Li Wenmin, the prefect of Ningguo, asked cautiously.

"Instead of blocking the road and complaining, it is better to shout grievances in public. I thought that when the time came, while the officials and gentry who greeted him stood in a large pile, we just had to take someone to kneel down at the gate of the city to this Lord Futai, hehe, he just didn't want to do Shi Shilun! Chang Hongzu drank tea and said with a smile.

"That's a good idea. …… However, I'm afraid that when the time comes, Master Ma won't be able to get off the stage, and he will be annoyed and angry, and even we will be liquidated together! Li Wenmin was a little timid, and he was still a little worried.

"Hehe, why should Brother Li worry? We've signed 74 officials. When the time comes, a large group of Tongzhi, Tongju, and Zhixian will be in front, and we can follow behind! ......" Chang Hongzu said again.

"Yes, let those guys come forward first, let's follow behind and pick up the fruit, hehe!" Li Wenmin also laughed, but unfortunately, he and Chang Hongzu laughed for a while, only to find that the other two accomplices did not react. This time, they couldn't stop laughing, Chang Hongzu looked at the two of them with some displeasure, and asked Xu Yue, the prefect of Taiping: "Brother Xu, don't just listen to us, how are your things going?" ”

"Brother Chang, rest assured. Master Xuetai has already said that he will speak by then. …… They are in collusion, and we don't necessarily have to be afraid! Xu Yue squinted his eyes and replied.

"That's good! Lu Longqi has only been here for a long time, what if Shi Shilun has the hearts of the people? None of the officials and gentry supported him. How can you keep up with Lord Wang's solid foundation in our Anhui? As long as Lord Wang speaks at that time, those gentry are not allowed to follow us...... The people's hearts are back! Hahaha, Lao Tzu also wants him Shi Shilun to taste the power of the people's back. Chang Hongzu laughed again.

"Don't rejoice too soon! If you do this, I'm afraid that when the time comes, you'll steal chickens and won't be able to eat rice! Zhang Kai, the prefect of Anqing, said suddenly.

"Brother Zhang, it's okay if you don't have a name. Why bother talking about cool things? Hmph, do you want to go back to Shi Shilun and them? Chang Hongzu looked at Zhang Kai and was unhappy that this person interrupted his prediction of the future situation.

"I don't want to be named for safety. I'm not like the three of you. Don't forget, I'm the prefect of Anqing. If you don't look up and look down with a few big heads in the province all day long, if you don't be a man with your tail between your legs, I'm afraid you won't know where to run and squat......" Zhang Kai took a sip of tea and said lightly.

"I know Brother Zhang, you have a hard time, okay? …… But, Brother Zhang, what did you mean by what you just said? Xu Yue asked.

"What do you mean? So who is Mader? The general who led the troops! Do you really think that you can suppress him by coercing the crowd to put pressure on him? Aren't you afraid that people will give you a thief to capture the king first? Don't forget the news I got from Chizhou just now, Chen Yigang and Zhang Chunxiu have already gone to report to that Master Ma. People can always do something to prepare! You are all local petty officials, but you are the emperor's cronies! Besides, will the emperor not know about the situation in Anhui? What should I do, do you think the emperor will not say a few words to him? Even if you join forces to squeeze Shi Shilun away, where will the emperor's face be placed? If you don't find a few culprits to dissipate your anger, do you think this is the end of the matter? ......" Zhang Kai snorted coldly and asked again and again.

"This ......" Li Wenmin gasped, and couldn't help but look around with a look of help. Zhang Kai's words hit him straight to his heart. Running in tandem with the officials sent by the emperor himself, if there is a bad one, the consequences will ......

"Hahaha, Brother Zhang is right. Chen Yigang's two guys are both old fritters, and in order to please that Ma De, they don't even want the friendship of their colleagues. However, Shi Shilun was guilty of public anger. Asking our officials to stop collecting fire consumption is against the imperial court system; I heard that he was going to let the gentry 'reduce rent and interest'...... These two major items, but we are not the only ones who are angry. …… We have hard-talking people in Anhui. Chang Hongzu raised his eyebrows proudly and said.

"What? Who else did you find? Zhang Kai frowned and asked.

"I won't hide it from you, Brother Zhang, you forgot, in addition to the domain, the platform, and the school platform in Anqing, there is also a general soldier!" Chang Hongzu had a sly smile on his face.

"You don't want to live anymore?" Zhang Kai stood up suddenly, looking shocked.

"Brother Zhang, what are you doing here? Hehe, we just spent some money to let this chief soldier say a few words for us at that time, and the soldier will speak loudly, right? It's not for him to rebel, what are you nervous about? Xu Yue said with a smile.

"You ...... I advise you to stop. It's a big deal to let these officials go to the court one by one, and there will be times when he Shi Shilun feels better. …… What you're doing now! What do you do when you provoke soldiers in officialdom? Zhang Kai's face had already changed color.

"Playing the Imperial Court? Brother Zhang, it's not like you don't know. The books we played one by one have long been left by the emperor and not issued, and this named play is tantamount to wiping the face of the court, if you don't do this, is it just to let this Shi Shilun turn Anhui into the same territory as the Jackie Chan brothers? The brothers don't have anything to eat! …… But you can rest assured, our General Zhao will not come out until the critical time. Chang Hongzu said.

"Huh, don't come out? Zhang didn't dare to accompany him. Zhang Kai waved at the three of them and walked outside. Li Wenmin called him in the back and kept stopping.

……

"Humph! I don't know how to lift! I came to him to give him face, and I actually put it up......" Looking at Zhang Kai's back, Chang Hongzu spat on the ground.

"Why should Chang be angry? In fact, this Zhang Kai is a character who knows how to advance and retreat...... "A person walked out of the room playing with a folding fan, and Chang Hongzu and the three of them immediately stood up and bowed to this person.

"What the lord said is good, but this person has less luck. There is no such blessing as the loyalty of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince! Hearing this person's words, Xu Yue raised his head and smiled flatteringly.

"Hahaha...... the person who came laughed and said, "That's a good point." This person doesn't know that you have the support of the prince behind you, and it is true that he is not blessed. ”

"Then Lord Ling, what should we do next? Do you really want to sue in the street? Li Wenmin asked.

"What is the street complaint? You really don't want to live anymore? To tell you the truth, there is no shortage of murderous things in Mader's hands. really annoyed him, let alone kill you, even if he cuts a big man on the street, he won't have the slightest. Lord Ling, that is, Ling Pu, said coldly.

"Don't sue? Then my lord, you still call us a joint ......," Chang Hongzu couldn't help but ask.

"What's the hurry? Hmph, today's joint name will naturally be a gang in the future. Bear with me for a while, and when the time comes, you will strike again. Hmph, the prince won't treat you badly! Lingpu said.

“…… Be! Glancing at each other, Chang Hongzu and the three didn't dare to ask again.

……

"Xu Zuyin, Xu Zuyin, your plan is really poisonous. Originally, the master just wanted to clean up Shi Shilun, but he didn't expect that you would be able to come to a pot. That's fine, hmph, let them be suspicious first, don't think about it, and no one wants to do anything. When the emperor is impatient, he will be added by external forces...... Anhui is still in the prince's pocket! Even if he can't do anything, there are more than 70 more officials in his hands, and the prince will not lose at all. Ling Pu thought to himself.
