When I first met Chen Xueyi, I complained to myself that Zhao Zhilong was a bloodsucking bug, and within a few years of coming to Jiangnan, he looted millions of taels of silver.Of course, not only Jiang Chuhan knows, but everyone in Jiangnan knows that most of the silver looted by this Lord Zhao is given to the present day.However, Zhao Zhilong has only come to Shuntian until now, which is really much beyond his expectations.But in Yun Buer, this is not a problem, and he said with a smile: "Collect accounts along the way, even if you ship again, you won't be able to come back."
Hearing this, Jiang Chuhan nodded as if he finally understood.Besides, April 18 is the birthday of Zhang Yixian, the governor of Dongchang, and Zhao Zhilong, who is regarded by everyone in the court as Zhang Yixian's party, is bound to rush back.Because Zhang Yixian has a dark temperament, this Dongchang Governor, who was personally given heavy power by Chongzhen, is not very popular with the current Holy Emperor Chongzhen, or maybe Wei Zhongxian's shadow has not dispersed.Chongzhen now believes that Jinyiwei commands Luo Yangxing, and everyone before and after him always helps Luo Yangxing to suppress the East Factory and establish a prestige.Of course, because Chongzhen understands that the most important point of imperial art is balance, and he can't let any one dominate, although he is also a man with a strong desire for power, he is confident that he will be able to strategize, so he is not particularly disgusted with the fact that the people below are forming gangs.Therefore, Zhao Zhilong was not afraid of what would happen, for the sake of the great plan of the Heaven and Earth Society, of course Zhao Zhilong would not give up this opportunity to reach the Zhidi.Therefore, Zhang Yixian's birthday, Zhao Zhilong was talking about how to rush back as much as possible, and it happened that a batch of silver was about to be escorted, so Zhao Zhilong wrote a letter enthusiastically and personally escorted the silver back to Beijing to resume his life.Coupled with the confession of the little prince, in order to be able to promote the Mingjin Alliance, Zhao Zhilong naturally did not dare to delay, and transported a large ship of gold and silver treasures early, and drove to Shuntian in a mighty way.He concluded that Wen Shoufu would definitely nod his head in agreement this time, so he didn't seem to be in a hurry, but enjoyed himself along the waterway, and arrived in Beijing at the same time as Jiang Chuhan.However, after the long line passed, Jiang Chuhan didn't see the figure of Lord Zhao, maybe in order to avoid criticism, he didn't enter Beijing with things.When the street was vacated, Jiang Chuhan and Yun Fuji continued to move forward, and after passing through the outer city and entering the Zhengyang Gate, it was as if they had entered another world, only to see the wide and straight Qianmen Street left and right, full of rows of magnificent shops, silk shops, pharmacies, shoe stores, restaurants, theaters, everything, indescribably prosperous.Looking at the bustling, clean and decent crowd coming in and out, even the laughter is so hearty and confident, revealing a pride of the roots of the imperial city.Seeing the change in Jiang Chuhan's expression, Yun Buji secretly said proudly: "Lord Jiang, how is this place compared to Yangzhou?"
”"It's different."
Jiang Chuhan shook his head and said: "Yangzhou is exquisite and elegant, there is a lot of arrogance here, and there are many more people. ”"That is, since the beginning of the Yuan Dynasty, Shuntian City has always been the imperial capital," Yun Buji said with a red face: "It has been more than five hundred years since I counted on my fingers, and this noble bearing, no one can compare." ”Although he was very dissatisfied with his use of foreign powers, Jiang Chuhan would not offend the pride of a master, with an appropriate smile on his face, and nodded slightly, making Yun Buji's heart more comfortable.He showed twelve points of enthusiasm and took Jiang Chuhan to wander on Qianmen Street, foaming at the mouth and explaining to him the situation here and nearby.What is the headline of the gallery is the jewelry and jade market, and the second article concentrates 30 official furnace rooms, melting and casting silver ingots; In the Qianshi Hutong, Shijia Hutong, and the west along the river, many Qianshi Liyin accounts have been opened.Many dignitaries exchanged real money and silver in Erjo, and Erjo bought jade jewelry and went straight to the Bada Alley to consume.also said that the sister Yan in the eight alleys is thin and fat, the south and the north are adjusted, and there is even the blonde and blue-eyed Xiyi, which makes Jiang Chuhan yearn for it although he can't come.Under his ungrateful introduction, he finally left the bustling Qianmen area, although there were fewer shops, but the road was still wide, the traffic was busy, people came and went, and it was not lively, until it was on the East Chang'an Street.There are no civilians living here, and the road is extraordinarily wide, and on both sides of the road are many magnificent and tall yamen, and looking at the pair of mighty stone lions at the door, you don't need to ask to know that you have arrived at the place where the central government office gathers.But one of the blue-gray stone walls, the yamen with the same color eaves, exudes a ghostly atmosphere, and the surrounding buildings with antique eaves and quiet walls are very incongruous, Jiang Chuhan couldn't help but whisper: "What kind of yamen is this?"
”"We are the Jinyi Guard Yamen."
Yun Buji said proudly: "How is it, it is majestic and solemn enough, right?"
Many people walk through the door with fright. ”Sure enough, who is worthy of what?
Jiang Chuhan couldn't help but sigh secretly, only then did he realize that the officials and passers-by who passed around were all clinging to the other side of the street, and they were all looking at him with a very wonderful eye, that gaze was like looking at a lamb that had fallen into the mouth of a tiger.At this time, the captain of the brocade guard at the door, who was wearing a red flying fish suit, also noticed that someone was coming over, looked at it, and couldn't help but be surprised: "Fuji is back!"
”Hurriedly caught up, helped Yun Fuji lead the horse, and said with a smile: "You have been in Jiangnan for long enough, and the children miss you to death." ”Yun Buji scolded with a smile: "Think about winning Lao Tzu's money!"
”Yun Fuji likes to play horse hanging, but the level is extremely smelly, and he is obsessed with it, and he often loses even his pants.The lieutenant smiled, but he could admit it, glanced at Jiang Chuhan and said: "This kid was brought by you, what did you do, tsk, he looks so handsome, very tender, right?"
”The last sentence was extremely ambiguous, which made Jiang Chuhan's hairs stand on end.Yun Buer took a horsewhip and slapped him, and Zhengse scolded: "Wash your ears and listen, this is Lord Jiang Chu Hanjiang, if you dare to talk nonsense, you will be castrated!"
”The lieutenant was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then he turned his two big mouths back, bowed his head and apologized to Jiang Chuhan, saying that he should be damned.Jiang Chuhan pretended to be puzzled and smiled: "You didn't offend me either, what are you paying for?"
”"I just said that" The lieutenant's brain was a little watery, and he wanted to explain, but he was stopped by Yun Buer's stern eyes and asked him, "Is Wu Ji in the mansion?"
”"Lord Shi is out of tolerance and has gone to Zhuozhou," the school captain whispered: "Now the third master is in charge of affairs." ”"Hmm."
Nodding, Yun Buer took Jiang Chuhan in, passed through the two or three doors, went to a hall, and said to him: "Brother, you only stay here for a while, and report it first when I enter." ”Jiang Chuhan nodded, and waited at the door.Who knew that after a cup of tea, he didn't see Yun Buji come out, but he heard the sound of chaotic footsteps behind him, and several soldiers in red uniforms, under the leadership of an officer of the brocade guard, came in from the outside, and arrived at Jiang Chuhan's side in a blink of an eye.The officer looked at Jiang Chuhan with an expression on his face, and said in a deep voice: "Are you Jiang Chuhan?"
”Jiang Chuhan didn't feel good, but he still forced himself to calm down and said, "It's exactly below." ”"Phew!
What a guts!
”The officer shouted: "This is an important place of military intelligence, and you are calling again, besides, you are famous, dare to enter?"
”Jiang Chuhan explained: "It was Lord Yun Fujiyun who brought me here, and he said that he would see the third master. ”The officer sneered, "Where is the second master?"
”"It's time to go in and throw yourself in."
Jiang Chuhan said."
Nonsense, it's clear that you sneaked in without permission!
There must be evil intentions!
”The officer said angrily: "Take it and bring it back for careful interrogation." ”A cadre of soldiers on the side, who couldn't wait for a long time, came up to the ground, grabbed Jiang Chuhan firmly, picked it up and ran out."
Fuji" was prominent at this time, Jiang Chuhan shouted loudly, but someone covered his mouth and nose, and he couldn't make a sound, and he was taken away from the courtyard in a blink of an eye.The scene in front of him quickly regressed, and when Jiang Chuhan felt that he was about to be suffocated, the hand that had been holding him tightly finally let go, and before he had time to gasp for air, he was gagged with a ball of rags, blindfolded, and then tied his hands and feet, and threw him into a carriage.In the darkness, he only felt the carriage running, and after an unknown time, the carriage stopped, and he was pulled off the carriage like a sack, and dragged it violently for a distance, grinding his legs with burning pain, especially when passing through the stone steps and thresholds, which made him feel like his bones were about to crack.Finally, at a certain moment, the hand that grabbed him suddenly let go, and Jiang Chuhan was slammed on the hard floor, and his eyes were full of pain and tears flowed down his face.At this time, the rag from his mouth was pulled down, and he didn't care about speaking, but first took a big breath of fresh air.I heard an old voice say, "Are you Jiang Chuhan?"
”"Ahem" Jiang Chuhan was masked and couldn't see the other party's appearance, but his brain immediately started, wanting to paint a portrait of the other party and locate his identity.Who knew that after a little hesitation, he was kicked on the ass and said angrily: "When the adults ask you, you still don't answer honestly!"
”"I'm not a prisoner!"
Jiang Chuhan was also angry: "Who are you?"
I am Jiang Chuhan, an official of the court and the central government ordered by the emperor, a protégé of the Son of Heaven, you can't treat me like this!
”In order to lower the vigilance of the other party, he is ready to create a superficial and irritable image, and no one here knows his true face anyway."
What a noise!"
kicked him in the ass twice, the kick was so hard that he almost fainted Jiang Chuhan in pain, and said in his throat: "It's painful for me to die, it's illegal for you to do this, the Ming Law stipulates that no one is allowed to torture the doctor!"
Illicit!
You know?
”His chatter only brought his ass to suffer, Jiang Chuhan found that the other party only spanked his ass, but he didn't touch it elsewhere, and said that he either had a special hobby, or he was afraid of hurting me!
Of course, the possibility of the latter is high, because the emperor issued a holy decree to get himself to Suncheon City, and he had to enter the palace to face the saint, if there were scars on his body, he might cause unnecessary trouble.Therefore, Jiang Chuhan's inference is that the other party throws a mouse trap and cannot do substantial harm to himself.Jiang Chuhan's mind became more stable, because his tolerance for pain was very poor, and if he was more ruthless, he might ask what to say.
