Chapter 265: Departure for Yangzhou
Yu'er glanced out the door.
"Sister, should we be careful, are those people outside the door sent by His Highness to monitor us?"
Zhu Song really didn't want to spy on Ye Biqing, with Ye Biqing's intelligence, if she spied on her, she would definitely be able to see it.
Rather than letting Ye Biqing deviate from herself, it is better to put down the power, anyway, she, the commander, can't mobilize the troops and horses, and has no military power, there are only twenty people under her hands, even if she wants to toss, she can't make any waves.
However, Ye Biqing didn't think so, she thought that even if Zhu Song sent someone to spy on her, it should be, and it was a matter of course, after all, Jinyiwei, that was to make a small report to His Majesty the Emperor, this is someone's job, maybe His Royal Highness will also have his own eyes in front of His Majesty the Emperor.
Thinking about it like this, Ye Biqing was not surprised originally, but now it is more acceptable.
Ye Biqing used the fastest time to pack her bags, in fact, there were not too many things, nothing more than a few changes of clothes, and a few Shen Zhengcong's clothes, after all, she was already an official now, and she always showed her female face, which was not very convenient after all.
Jewelry Ye Biqing brought some valuable, after all, the silver ticket is almost spent now, these jewelry is now the only gold and silver thing, take the time to get the pawnshop and exchange it for some silver, although he is an official, but it will take time for the imperial court to send it down.
Ye Biqing asked Yu'er to take some jewelry to the pawnshop, exchanged it for silver taels and hired a boat, boarded the boat before it was completely dark, and lined up behind Zhu Song's big boat.
Zhu Song said goodbye to the Zhejiang officials who survived one by one at the dock, and those who committed things but did not die were grateful to Zhu Song, and the new Zhejiang political envoy Fan Zhongping and the original commander Qin Tai were completely like the younger brother sending the eldest brother to Zhu Song.
Zhu Song was originally a little resistant to Fan Zhongping and Qin Tai's overtures, but after thinking about the essence of the officialdom's clique and selfishness, he was not so resistant to the two of them.
As for the gift that Fan Zhongping and Qin Tai exchanged for expressing their hearts, Zhu Song also accepted it correctly.
Zhu Song got on the boat, and the fleet set anchor and sailed on the road again.
Zhu Song sat lazily in the cabin, thinking about whether to read a book for a while to pass the time, but suddenly heard a melodious flute coming, and he was quite curious in his heart and went out of the cabin to find the sound and came to the stern.
Zhu Song has a total of three big ships, the first two are the big ships that the Jinyi guards are sitting on, and Zhu Song's ship is in the third, so this arrangement is also to prevent some of his subordinates from having excessive contact with Ye Biqing.
Now that Jinyiwei is in Zhu Song's hands, it has only been a few months, and the original Jinyiwei is very scattered and disorderly, and Zhu Song has not made time to train well.
And Zhu Song's ship has Zhu Song, His Royal Highness the King of Han and the commander of the Jinyi Guard, and there will be absolutely no chaos, so he was also stunned when he saw the man in white standing on the bow of the boat behind him.
Although the sky is slightly dark, the stern of the large ship as well as the bow of the small boat are illuminated by lanterns.
From the faint light emitted by the lantern, Zhou Song could still see that the man in white was a man.
Long-sleeved robe, with a bun on his head, a very simple white cloth entangled, looking tall and stylish, even if he can't see his face clearly, but just looking at the temperament hidden in the black shadow, Zhu Song can also conclude that this boy must be extraordinary.
Zhu Song thought in his heart, fortunately he didn't have a heart for Ye Biqing, this man came out of nowhere, that Shen Zhengcong was a eunuch, he must not be able to satisfy Ye Biqing in some aspects, and it is logical that Ye Biqing privately uses his own money to raise a face.
That Ye Biqing frequently hinted to Zhu Song, Zhu Song rejected him, she was probably dead set on Zhu Song, so when she left, she brought this noodle with her, thinking that it should be so.
Zhu Song suddenly cried and laughed when he thought of this, really, why do you care about this? Since people have taken refuge in themselves and become their subordinates, they can't take care of their own private lives, let alone have to take care of them.
That Lao Cao is a good man in the eyes of outsiders, and he didn't use his private money to hang out in the Qinglou and listen to the girl's singing, so does Zhu Song still want to stop him and prevent him from going?
In the same way, this Ye Biqing is also so different in that her gender is different, if she really raises a few noodles in private to play polyandry, one phoenix and many dragons, then Zhu Song can't care about it, as long as she doesn't delay her business.
……
At dawn on the second day, Zhu Song's recital had already arrived with the official who had been beaten back to Beijing.
After Zhu Di went down to the early court, he saw the eunuch holding King Han's fold in his hand, picked it up and doubled it, then closed it and threw it on the dragon case.
The crown prince was handling the folds for his father as usual, and when he saw his father like this, the prince asked carefully.
"Dad, what's going on, but there's a problem with the salt tax in Liangzhejiang?"
Zhu Di sat on the chair, his expression was neither sad nor happy.
"Your twentieth uncle is out of the horse, I am still very relieved, there is no problem with the salt tax in the two Zhejiang, and there is no problem with salt trafficking by sea and land, although the silver can only arrive later, but after all, so much salt has been cut out in the empty place, and more silver can be obtained than before, so just wait."
"But he made such a fuss in Hangzhou, and arrested all the envoys in Zhejiang and the political offices in Zhejiang, and the political envoys had the original Hangzhou prefect Fan Zhongping temporarily, and the command envoys remained unchanged, leaving a vacant position for the envoys, and your second brother recommended a person to come up a few days ago, and it turned out to be the head of the criminal department, and some ability to serve as the envoy of Zhejiang was enough."
"But your twentieth uncle, he actually brought this person back, not only did he bring it back, but he also wrote a book, saying that he had already selected the candidate for the Zhejiang envoy, what does it mean?"
"He's not satisfied with my employment arrangement, isn't he? What hubris! ”
Zhu Gaochi smiled and said with relief: "Dad, you made a holy decree at the beginning, and all the things in Zhejiang were left to the second uncle to decide, and the twentieth uncle investigated so many cases one after another, and all of them were big cases, so it is inevitable that the officialdom in Zhejiang will be empty." ”
"What's more, Uncle Twenty collected the salt tax while investigating the case, although it is not a ready-made silver tael or it is still sold by sea, but Uncle Twenty's merit is already very high! During the trip to Zhejiang, several officials were suspected of forming a party for personal gain, but this kind of thing is the same for whoever goes. ”
