Chapter 70: The People of Nanjing

But whether it was Fu Xiruo and Hu Yitong, any of the three court leaders, they couldn't imagine that at this time, all the subordinates of the three divisions were arrested. After the sun rises tomorrow, Shaanxi Cheng announced that the political envoy Si Yamen and the punishment according to the procuratorial envoy Si Yamen, what kind of situation will occur, except for Fang Buli, no one knows, maybe the nine-fold Xuande Tianzi knows in his heart, but in the whole of Shaanxi, except for Fang Buli, no one knows.

But what even Fang Buli didn't know was that a black shadow crossed the tall city wall and burrowed into the courtyard of a small town outside Xi'an, and he didn't know what he was doing inside. I only know that not long after he entered the yard, a man in a strong suit took out a horse from the stable in the yard and galloped away in the direction of Huayin County.

Early the next morning, a knight came to the mountain gate of the Huashan faction, and as soon as the knight arrived at the mountain gate of the Huashan faction, he fell to the ground at once. The two Huashan ** guarding in front of the mountain gate caught a glimpse of the mark on the horse, and hurriedly helped it aside, who knew that the knight pulled the two away, took out a wooden token from his arms and handed it to them, "Quickly report to the master, there is a change in Xi'an." ”

In the early morning, it was supposed to be the time to urge ** you ** martial arts, but now all the non-character ** of Liu on Huashan have gathered in the Sword Qi Chongxiao Hall or now called Huairen Hall. The reason is the upheaval that took place in the city of Xi'an last night.

"This side is not far from the long-term ability, and overnight, the two yamen of the political envoy department and the criminal envoy department have a big change. I'm afraid the next step is the state capitals and counties. Let's have a hard time in the future. "Hu Bubei is really sorry for his name, his face is full of sorrow, his face is squeezed together, and he is out of folds.

"Does Fang Buli have so many people in his hands? Don't forget, how old is he? How many times has he presided over scientific expeditions? The results of scientific examinations in Shaanxi are not good, and few scholars can help him. As far as the little manpower he entrained, it is a question whether he can fill up the three divisions of the yamen this time, and there are still more manpower to remove the chief officials of the prefectures and counties in Shaanxi?"

"Israel's inseparable scheming, his tricks will not be only so little, I can't say, his subsequent moves are more terrible than we imagined. "Cui Bupo has experienced more than two years of experience, and he has matured a lot compared to before, and he doesn't like to blow nonsense as much as before, "Senior brothers, the news from Fenglingdu and Tongguan recently has come that many foreign merchants have entered Shaanxi, and their ruts are very deep. The strange thing is that there are no ** goods along the way, and they rush directly to Xi'an. The key point is that the bearing on his body is not like an ordinary business trip, but like..."

"What is it? Don't sell it. "Han Yue'er didn't have a good temper, but since Zhou Budo got married, her temper has become more and more weird. In front of so many senior brothers, he unceremoniously trained Cui Bupo, and Cui Bupo did not leave half of his face.

Cui Bupo glanced at Hu Bubei, and Hu Bubei smiled bitterly and nodded. Cui Bupo sighed in his heart, as if he hadn't heard what Han Yue'er said, and continued, "This group of people feels somewhat noble, they seem to be nobles of the imperial court, but they don't have a military atmosphere on their bodies, they should be from Nanjing." ”

"Nanjing?When did Fang Buli get mixed with the gang of people in Nanjing who were eating and waiting to die?" Hearing Cui Bupo say this, Hu Bugui laughed, "If this is really the case, then it will be easy to do." The group of nobles in Nanjing not only did not deal with the imperial examination officials, but also did not deal with the Jingnan nobles, as the son-in-law of Xue Lu, the leading figure in the Jingnan honors, they did not have a clear relationship with the founding nobles of Nanjing. I think the good days of Fang Bu have come to an end. ”

"Not necessarily. After being silent for a long time, Zhou Budo, who had not spoken, finally spoke, with an indescribable tiredness on his face. That's right, no matter who it is, if you are traveling for a few days in a row, it is also like this, "The nobles of Nanjing do not control the real power like the nobles of Jingnan, but the tree has deep roots, and I don't know how much savings." Don't forget, the treasures of Yunnan fell into whose hands. How much gold and silver is there in that place alone? Aren't most of the treasures we transport inland every year swallowed by these nobles? ”

"But Fang Buli is Xue Liuzi's son-in-law! If Beijing knows that he is in close proximity with Nanjing, can that group of Jing Nanxun nobles who followed Emperor Taizong to fight the world just ask? Can they not feel that he has betrayed them? Can they remain indifferent when the time comes?" Hu Bugui asked.

"What can you do if you can't be calm? Fang Buli's foundation is in the palace rather than the outer court, as long as the person sitting on the Fengtian Hall still believes in him, as long as the hat of Jinshi Jidi is still on his head for a day, Fang Buli will be fine. Zhou Budo massaged his temples, and said it so easily, but after all, Fang Buli was a wealthy feudal official, with great power in his hands, and Xue Jian, who was the commander of the envoy, was in charge of the affairs and support. Although the Huashan faction is a local snake, it is also very difficult to do, and the only way is to work tax collection and local stability, "The only thing we have is that most of the powerful and powerful gentry in Shaanxi are on our side, maybe this opposite side can make some efforts." ”

"It's really not possible to go to Commander Shu, he should be able to think of some way, he is the commander of the Shaanxi Metropolitan Division. It is still easy to suppress Xue Jian's command of the Xingdu Division, but if Xue Jian is controlled, he will break one of Fang's inseparable hands. If it doesn't work, just..."Hu Bugui's face flashed ruthlessly, but everyone present felt a chill in their hearts, when the Yangwu Marquis Mansion was the best friend of the Huashan faction in the past, it was Hu Bugui who had the best friendship with Xue Jian, but now...

"We can't kill people, this time we are not facing friends in the rivers and lakes, but officials of the imperial court. If the hands and feet are a little unclean and people know about it, our Huashan faction will be finished. Zhou Budo was taken aback, he didn't expect Hu Bugui to come up with such a bad idea, so he hurriedly opened his mouth to stop it, "Let's take a look first." ”

The senior brothers in charge have all said so, what else can Hu Bubei and them say? After agreeing to the promise, they dispersed.

Xi'an, the Yamen of the Domain

"Don't leave the virtuous nephew, this time we have transported a million yuan of treasure money and 100,000 taels of silver to Shaanxi, don't let your Uncle Tang lose all his money, this is how many people's pension money. A middle-aged man with neatly trimmed hair and a cloth coat but a graceful demeanor put down the tea cup in his hand and said with a smile. This middle-aged man dressed as an ordinary businessman is Tang Binglin, the youngest son of Tang Ding, the current Xinguo Gong.

"Uncle Tang still doesn't know who the little nephew is? How can I tell Uncle Tang if I am not sure? Uncle Tang will settle down this time. If this million yuan of money and 100,000 taels of silver are invested, it will definitely be a daily income. Fang Buli asked people to take a map of Shaanxi and spread it on the ground, marked with strange patterns one by one. There are even patterns that are the same shape, but they are divided into red and white.

Tang Binglin looked at this map and was a little dazed. The family history of the Xinguo Gongfu, the old Xinguo Gongfu has been fighting in the south and the north for decades, and a group of old brothers know the situation of more than ten political envoys in the world well. The location of these strange patterns is all minerals in Shaanxi, and some of them don't even know themselves, and they are marked one by one.

"It's... The most important weapon of the country. After the shock, Tang Binglin suddenly found that this map was not similar to the ancient map, it was divided by a horizontal and vertical line, and the mountains were not drawn, but also drawn with closed lines. This is simply a militaristic weapon, and it is really aggrieved to mark the location of minerals. "But what do the eyes on these markings mean? one red and one white, is it reserves?"

"The red ones, which have been occupied, and the white ones, which have not yet been discovered. Fang Buli slowly moved his finger on the map, drew a circle, and then slammed it, "This is the area where the little nephew is ready to let Uncle Shi Bo invest, this is a traffic artery, north, south, west and east all pass through, if you build an economic development zone here and open a workshop, you will definitely be able to make money every day." ”

"Here?" Tang Binglin poked his head and looked at it, and when he saw what place it was, he was a little reluctant, "Tongguan is the main road in and out of Shaanxi, and the city is high and deep, I'm afraid the imperial court won't allow us to set up a place here... What's it called?"

"Economic Development Zone. ”

"Yes, economic development zones. Moreover, Tongguan is too strong, and all aspects are too complicated. The most important thing is that it is too close to the Huashan faction. When I came, I heard that you had already fallen out with Zhou Budo, right?" Tang Binglin looked at Fang Buli faintly, and made up his mind in his heart, if Fang Buli didn't give himself a satisfactory answer, he would turn around and go back to Nanjing.

"What kind of quarrel is not a quarrel? I haven't been to Huashan to see my former senior brother in Shaanxi yet, and I don't have a chance to make a fallout. "How could Fang Buli admit it? Tang Binglin's idea, he knew it very well in his heart. Besides, he was telling the truth. It is true that he did not go to Huashan, and he did not see Zhou Budo, but he was just ordered to deal with a few mediocre and corrupt officials.

Tang Binglin stared at his nephew, as if to see whether Fang Buli was telling the truth or a lie. However, even if Fang Buli was telling a lie, and the mineral signs on that map were all over the place, Tang Binglin was reluctant to leave immediately. It's just that when the time comes, it is a matter of choosing to cooperate with Fang Budo, the nephew of the powerful side, and choosing to cooperate with Zhou Budo, a tycoon who dominates the party.
