Jingyun is a good horse with a steady and responsible sense of responsibility, even if no one holds the reins, it can endure the two people moving on the horse's back, and walk forward along the official road like a fly.His master, however, is a person who occasionally has a negative IQ and often does not understand amorous feelings, and he stammers: You, what are you going to do?
Hehe Lin Fangxu smiled, his eyes were deep, he had never experienced such emotion in his previous life, and he had never met such a wonderful person in his previous life, he was born in a rich and powerful family, but he was simple and lovely.Independent and assertive, he can be admitted to the Beijing Normal Camp on his own, but he is often childish and confused.All the qualities in him attract you to keep getting closer, closer and closer, until the snort blends, until the rhythm of the law!
Until the clouds suddenly hissed, the front legs were raised upright, and the hind legs jumped back two steps.The sudden accident erased all the charm in Lin Fangxu's heart, interrupted his greed to match his lips, and immediately hugged the person sitting in his arms with one hand, and quickly grabbed the reins with the other hand to control the horse.Bastard!
Lin Fangxu looked at the daredevils who suddenly rushed to the feet of Jingyun and cursed in a low voice, with wind, frost and thunder and lightning in his eyes.Sven was forced to scold, Jiang Shiyun was surprised and lowered his head to hide his lips and snicker.Lin Fangxu's cunning appearance made Lin Fangxu's heart warm, and when he saw the daredevil's left foot stumbling on his right foot, he fell to the ground, quickly lowered his head, and smacked Jiang Shiyun's red lips hard, before he said viciously: He Fangxiao is small!
Why so reckless?
The daredevil, dressed plainly, looked uninjured or sick on the surface, but after stumbling, he struggled for a few breaths before sitting up, as if he saw a savior, and shouted, help!
Lin Fangxu had already sensed that something was wrong, and before he had time to ask, two more men in strong suits rushed out from the fork in the road, one held down the daredevil, and the other unloaded his chin.When the two men in strong suits pounced, Jiang Shiyun couldn't blush, and quickly held the red tassel gun on Jingyun's back in his hand, and at this time he had already turned over and dismounted, found a position where he could attack and retreat, and looked at the three of them with fierce eyes, just waiting for Lin Fangxu to say something.A moment ago, the person who escaped from the ascension to heaven with a face was full of despair at this time, looking at Lin Fangxu with tears streaming down his face, babbling in his mouth, and unable to break free.Lin Chong, who was walking in front and heard the movement, had already turned back, Lin Fangxu frowned, planning to save the daredevils first.Just as he was about to speak, four people rode out of the fork in the road, and the first was a gorgeously dressed young man, with a rather casual look on his face, but he said sincerely: Chasing the fugitive slaves at home frightened the two, sorry.Uh-huh!
Hearing the word fugitive, the dying daredevil, who did not know where the strength came from, struggled violently, and a corner of the satin undershirt appeared at the hem of the cotton shirt.Lin Fangxu saw the face of the noble prince clearly, and after listening to what he said, he raised his eyebrows meaninglessly, and quickly guessed the cause and effect in his heart, only feeling that he had to intervene in today's affairs.Thinking of this, Lin Fangxu also said casually: What kind of fugitive slave needs to be chased by the third son of the Kang family in person?
Kang Ziyou, the real decision-maker hidden behind the Ningbo Kang family, we have also fought twice in our previous lives, today you don't want to expose your identity, you plan to fool the past, I'm afraid it won't work.Kang Ziyou thinks that he has always been low-key, and he has no intersection with these six champions, and obviously he didn't expect to be called out of identity, but this is not enough to make him lose his senses, and he only said modestly: Kang's name is unknown, and he didn't think that someone would know it.After speaking, he joked to himself: Compared with the rest of the Kang family, I am a white person, I have nothing to do all day, and when I am idle and bored, I simply come to chase this fugitive slave who steals property, thinking that I can do my best for the family, but I didn't expect to let my brother see a joke.Lin Fangxu saw that he didn't ask about his identity from beginning to end, and just wanted to fool the past, so he took the initiative to say: Lin Mou came here on an errand by order, and happened to meet Gongzi Kang's family affairs, so he had to ask more, I wonder if Gongzi Kang will bring this person back and send it to the government?
Don't just dispose of it privately, right?
The Great Wei Dynasty did not allow lynching.Kang Ziyou was trying to find an excuse to leave, hearing him meddling like this, his face turned a little gloomy, and he smiled without a smile: Brother Tai, don't worry, it's just that he stole some property, if he is willing to hand it over, the Kang family will not do anything to him.Kang Ziyou looked benevolent, but he didn't want Lin Fangxu to suddenly put on a face that was overwhelming, and he didn't let go: Kang Gongzi's family has a big business, but this official can't let it go like this, this person shocked my horse and almost killed me, don't let him enter the yamen to shed his skin, I will not give up.Jiang Shiyun had a tacit understanding with him, and before he could finish speaking, he rushed forward unexpectedly, and the red tassel gun picked and slapped, waving the two men in strong suits, and quickly retreating with the daredevil.The guards around Kang Ziyou reacted, and when they wanted to step forward to fight, they were blocked by Lin Chong's cold iron spear.The other party's guards were doubled, but their skills were obviously much lower than Jiang Shiyun's and the others, and the two sides confronted each other like this, Kang Ziyou looked at Lin Fangxu with sharp eyes, and his words were frosty, and he pointed out: Brother Tai really wants to be nosy?
Lin Fangxu didn't care, pretended not to understand and pretended to be arrogant: Killing the official is regarded as a rebellion, this person almost killed the official, this is no longer your Kang family's private matter, Kang Gongzi, wait for me to bring it back to the yamen, and then deal with the theft of your family's property.After Lin Fangxu finished speaking, he motioned for Lin Chong to bring the people with him, and the two horses and four of them left with such a swagger.Kang Ziyou watched the four of them walk away, his face was cloudy, and the other people looked at each other, Chang Song had to step forward and say: Young master, are we still chasing?
Oh, killing officials is regarded as rebellion, can a few of us not survive?
It's just that he gave His Royal Highness the Crown Prince the handle of the Kang family for nothing, and Kang Ziyou said with an unhappy face.Chang Song was taken aback, and said more respectfully and carefully: Then forget it?
Never mind?
If Ouyang Qing is in the hands of the crown prince, isn't it also troublesome?
Kang Ziyou had a bit of madness on his face, and said in a cruel tone: Go and gather the people from other places immediately, let the fifth child follow, and find an opportunity to make a move, whether the others live or die, Ouyang Qing must die.was called to break his identity, Kang Ziyou couldn't take action in person, but he had to make preparations with both hands, what if the fifth didn't succeed?
Let Changsong personally go to find Lao Wu and his people, Kang Ziyou quickly rushed back to Ningbo with a few guards, and needed to think of some ways from Ouyang's house.On the other side, Lin Fangxu and the four of them had already joined Lin Fangyuan, and they were also hurrying on the road.As soon as the daredevil's jaw was taken back, he endured the pain and shouted: My name is Ouyang Qing, not his Kang family's house slave.Even Lin Chong knew that he was definitely not a house slave, so no one wanted to listen to his nonsense, Jiang Shiyun glared at him and told him to stop.In the previous life, when the Ouyang family's fleet encountered pirates, the Ouyang Gongzi who led the team is said to have not escaped and died at sea.Lin Fangxu guessed that this daredevil had indeed not escaped in his previous life, but it was really hard to say whether he died at sea or not.If your life deviates from the track of your previous life, you will inevitably encounter difficulties that are different from those in your previous life.Lin Fangxu was still sitting behind Jiang Shiyun at this time, quickly analyzing the current situation in his mind.The Kang family's manpower is estimated to have caught up, maybe there is still an ambush ahead, whether they can reach Ningbo City safely is a matter of two words, and they need to find a way to deal with it as soon as possible.Chapter Eighty-NineThe warm sun sets, the brilliance gradually receives, like a charcoal fire about to be extinguished, the sky reflects a crimson color, and the sea also reflects a crimson color.When the fisherman returns home, the waves follow the boat, like a silver knife returning to its sheath, and there is a circle of ripples on the sea, and there is also a circle of ripples in the heart.In the distance, the gulls circled, perhaps lost in their way home, and chirped and flew over the dark warship over and over again.Zhu Xianzong stood at the bow of the boat, taking Wang Xiaowen and Ningbo prefect Kong Anxian with him, and was listening carefully to the report of Commander Chen after he had inspected the scene of the accident.Ouyang's fleet was attacked by pirates before leaving Zhoushan, and when the next official arrived, the bandits were gone, leaving only two looted ships, and the bodies of the victims had been salvaged and collected at that time, and the identities of the victims had been verified, except for a few seamen, Ouyang Gongzi was no longer among them.After Wang Xiaowen listened, he said with expectation: Isn't Ouyang Qing still alive?
This one?
No one is alive, no corpse is dead, Commander Chen did not dare to draw conclusions, only guessed according to the situation at the scene: Looking at the traces of the fight on the ship, the bandits seem to have more advantages, the probability of having escapees is not very large, and the sunken corpses at the bottom of the sea are not necessarily.Wang Xiaowen and Kong Anxian are Taixue brothers, and their relationship is not bad.This person usually speaks three words, and he wants to say two and a half sentences, but at this time, he is quietly like a chicken to the side, trying to reduce his sense of existence.It's a pity that things are not as people want, after Zhu Xianzong listened to Commander Chen, he said in a calm tone: Master Kong, when the emperor's grandfather changed Changguo to Zhoushan, it was under the rule of Ningbo Mansion, but now it is rampant with bandits, and your prefect should be a little derelict in his duties.Kong Anxian's expression was entangled, and he wanted to say that there was a lot of inside information about this matter, and he had done his best, but His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was right to blame, so he could only admit it: It was the incompetence of the lower officials and the failure of the emperor's grace.At this time, Wang Xiaowen, the senior assistant of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and a warm-up professional, half-jokingly said: Senior Brother Kong, don't be busy blaming yourself, and I want to bother you to solve your doubts first, what is the root cause of this man-made disaster?
It can't be just for the sake of possessions!
How can it not be just for the sake of property, the world is bustling for profit, Senior Brother Wang has really lived for so many years in vain.Kong Anxian choked his junior brother back first, and then gave a white eye by the way, and then said respectfully to the prince: The Ouyang family's man-made disaster, to put it bluntly, is still a conflict of interests, and the reason for it is to start from the shipping market.Next, Governor Kong told the two of them in detail about the situation he had discovered over the years.After a hundred years of stability, taking advantage of the convenience of water conservancy, the southern coastal areas have developed so far, and maritime commerce can be said to be very developed, and porcelain, silk and tea in the south of the Yangtze River are sold overseas.In the previous dynasty, maritime commerce and trade were all private transactions of the people, and the imperial court was not regular, and Emperor Yang established a city in Ningbo, saying that it was to manage trade transactions, but in fact it did not play a role, but Emperor Yang's henchmen made a lot of money for Emperor Yang by relying on sea trade.In today's dynasty, the first emperor has rectified once during his reign and formulated a series of unified and complete market systems.First of all, if a merchant wants to go to sea, he needs to go to the city to declare and obtain a public certificate for going to sea, which records the goods brought by the merchant to sea, the entourage and the place he went to sea.After the declaration, the city shipping department will also send people to the ship to check, mainly to check whether there are weapons, copper coins, fugitives, etc.In the early days, the collection of the city tax was carried out when the sea ship went to sea and returned to the port, also known as reading the truth, and the goods on board were divided into two kinds of thick and thin, and a number of copies were drawn according to a certain proportion, and the collection was in kind.Later, it was estimated that it was too troublesome, and if the effort was delayed, it could be replaced with silver money, and the goods going to sea had been paid even when they were declared.Maritime merchants also need to pay a certain percentage of the goods transported from other countries, and the city shipping department can also buy certain goods at the specified price, and the last remaining goods must still be issued to the public according to the standards of the city shipping department before they can be shipped to other places for sale.A perfect system may not necessarily be able to be implemented perfectly, not to mention that some maritime merchants have their backs against the gate valve and are noble, and the city and the Yamen cannot afford to provoke them at all.It is said that the city has long been dirty, and it can't afford to provoke the six big families, so they use their authority to squeeze small maritime merchants, deliberately make things difficult when declaring, do not issue public certificates without giving benefit fees, overcharge when drawing, and force buy at a low price when buying, etc., which is extremely ugly.Nowadays, no one abides by the market ship system, and small and medium-sized maritime merchants come according to the rules of the six major families.6.
What are the rules?
If other maritime merchants want to go to sea, they can go to the city and directly dock in the fleet of the six major ships, of course, they have to pay a certain percentage of the protection fee.Even foreign merchants such as Siam, Wako, and Europa traded in the trading places held privately by the six major families, and did not go to the city, and as for where the trading places were, it seemed to be different from year to year, and the Kong prefect said that he had not yet investigated clearly.As for the six major families and the city division, some agreement must have been reached, and how it is, the prefect of Kong said that he has not yet investigated clearly.In the end, the cause and effect of the Ouyang family's accident was probably that the Ouyang family's Miss Yan married the second son of the Kang family as his wife, and as a result, the second son of Kang spoiled his concubine and killed his wife, and finally the Ouyang family died of depression and did not leave an heir.The Ouyang family's fleet has always followed the Kang family to sea, so when his daughter died, the head of the Ouyang family could only swallow his anger.His youngest son and sister had a deep relationship, and they couldn't bear it, so they privately found an opportunity to beat Kang's second son, and they didn't go to sea with the Kang family's fleet, and finally had an accident.But to be honest, how can there be such a coincidence, Zhoushan has a guard, where are there so many bandits, but what is the real reason, Governor Kong said that he has not investigated clearly.After listening to a few unclear in a row, Mo said Wang Xiaowen, even Zhu Xianzong couldn't help but roll his eyes in his heart, and said helplessly: Master Kong, Kong Ge Lao strongly recommended you to come at the beginning, and the old man seemed to have too high expectations.Governor Kong's rugged face had an equally rough beard, and a good Shaanxi man sneered at this time: This, in the past few years when Xiaguan has been away from Beijing, he has always reported good news and not bad news in his letters, and his father may be serious, but in fact, it is really difficult for Xiaguan to show his strength in this southerner's nest.Hehe, Zhu Xianzong was angry and funny by his words, and he also said with some emotion: It must have taken a lot of effort for the Confucian Governor to sort out these many cruxes, and the relationship between interests is really strong, which makes it difficult for people to start, no wonder when the emperor was there, he hesitated a few times and didn't make up his mind to rectify it.After hearing this, the prefect of Kong and Wang Xiaowen were both solemn and worried, and finally the prince was still needed to explain: Okay, don't be entangled, interest groups can also be replaced, in a few days, businessmen from other places who heard the news should arrive in Ningbo one after another, and then it is time to do it.Wang Xiaowen nodded and agreed: Shang Taifu and other celebrities are also helping to build momentum now, and it must not be too long, but although there is not much hope, if Ouyang Qing is really alive, it will be better to start.Zhu Xianzong also agreed in his heart, but he didn't want to pin his hopes on things that he couldn't control, so he just said casually: Commander Chen will send someone to inquire and investigate again in the next few days, and he doesn't need to spend too much energy on this matter.Just as the prince thought, whether Ouyang Qing could live or not was really out of control, and this kid's previous escape was probably just a strong support.After revealing his identity, he actually started to get hot, I don't know if it was caused by the fracture of his left arm, the whole person was dizzy, and he looked like he was about to be unable to hold on.Lin Fangxu felt that he had gambled on the safety of Xiaoyun and his brother to snatch the key witness, and he couldn't just toss it away, with such a patient, he had to face all kinds of pursuits, and it was unrealistic to rush to Ningbo City quickly.Ouyang Qing was already unstable on the horse's back, Lin Chong returned to support him and asked, "Young Master, do you want to put him in the carriage?"
Seeing this, Lin Fangxu quickly decided: Brother Yuan, you ride Brother Chong's fast horse, and quickly rush to Ningbo City for help, the carriage will be unloaded first, and Brother Chong will take Ouyang Qing to ride the old horse.Lin Fangyuan got the order, quickly unloaded the carriage, took a set of attached saddles prepared when setting off from the compartment partition and put it on the old horse, and helped Lin Chong put Ouyang Qing on the old horse.After doing this, Lin Fangyuan felt a little scared, but he was more worried about the safety of his young master, so he hesitated: Young master, I stay?
You and Jiang Shaolang go first!
Scold!
Brother Yuan, don't say stupid things!
Lin Fangxu took out a seven-star crossbow hidden in the cabinet of the carriage, put it in his hand and gestured twice, and continued: If you hadn't gone over just now, Kang Ziyou's subordinates might not have known you, otherwise Brother Yuan, you would probably not be able to escape easily.
