Chapter 284: It’s not that enemies don’t get together
In Hangzhou, the most recent focus is collective food poisoning incidents.
The Imperial Office and the Governor's Office attached great importance to this case with extremely bad influence, and ordered the Zhejiang Censor and the Hangzhou Prefect to solve the case within a time limit. After a "stricken" investigation, the two departments produced a final report saying: "The reason for this food poisoning was that everyone ate spoiled meat. The source of the spoiled meat was a small restaurant called "Kei First Come". The restaurant has extremely bad sanitary conditions and very few customers, so the food consumption speed was extremely slow. The black-hearted boss made the spoiled meat to cover up the taste, sell it as good as good, and sell it at low prices to attract unsavory people who don't know the truth. Other diners who ate the meat on the store on the same day vomited and diarrhea, and even fell into a coma. The store has been sealed off, but the store owner and the child are escaping and are chasing it.'
Because Zhao Zhenji did not understand criminal investigation and could not test it, he could only believe this seemingly reasonable report. The rest was to determine the main responsible person. He believed that the silent person who proposed and paid for the banquet should be borne by the silent person who proposed and paid for the banquet. However, the Zhejiang Censor disagreed. He wrote in the report: "Silently use six taels of money and ordered three tables to be taken; if two taels of silver, you can buy a top-grade restaurant and there will be no risk of corruption. However, the noble person was greedy for small profits and deducted it from it, and even went to the "customer first" to buy a table of banquets of six coins, which caused all the adults to vomit and diarrhea. Therefore, I foolishly thought that those who paid the money were not responsible, and those who deducted were responsible for the full responsibility."
Facing this question, Zhao Zhenji was speechless, but he could not hand over his subordinates easily, otherwise who would still be with him in the future? Shuangwei started a big fight and entangled in some details every day. After a few days, until the news came... Three Japanese/pirates were killed during the escort, and the imperial envoy Wang Yongji was seriously injured!
After the initial shock, Zhao Zhenji felt deeply frustrated. He originally thought that this was an official and forced the people to rebel, but now he realized that neither side was a good bird. He finally found that the pool of water in Zhejiang was too dark and too muddy. It was impossible to find out anything with just his own outsider...
Hu Zongxian was also shocked. He finally believed that Zhu Wan's death was not accidental, but that there was indeed a group of people with boundless magic power and courage, hiding behind their backs to call the wind and rain, and could kill themselves at any time. As soon as he thought of this, he couldn't help but sweat and wet his back and said to Wen Zhengming: "It seems that the consequences of being tough are very serious."
Wen Zhengming nodded and said, "Their strength is indeed too strong. No wonder Admiral Zhu once said, 'It is easy to steal foreign countries, but it is difficult to steal from China. It is easy to steal from pirates on the coast of China, but it is even more difficult to steal from China's clothing and hats.' Ah!"
Hu Zongxian nodded with deep emotion and said, "Yes, whether it is Japanese pirates or pirates, they are visible and touched. If the soldiers come to block the water and soil, they are hidden among the big families in the southeast. They are closely related to most families that do not participate in smuggling. It is like a fish-eyed bead that makes you unable to catch, touch, and dare not uproot. The deadly part of the cold-sucking boy is a hidden arrow, which makes people unable to defend themselves and cannot protect you. "
"What's the matter with Dongweng?" Wen Zhengming asked softly.
"We have to change our strategy," Hu Zongxian stroked his beard and said, "It's not enough to be hard, and it's time to think of a solution from another place." He said with a wry smile: "But just say a thousand words and ten thousand things, you have to ask Master Zhao, the great god, to leave. I can't do anything here." He pointed to the battle report on the table: "I have lost two consecutive games this month."
"It really has a great impact." Wen Zhengming narrowed his eyes and said, "It's better to write a memorial and complain, and attach these two war reports. I believe the court will transfer him."
"It's not appropriate." Hu Zongxian shook his head and said, "What if His Majesty thinks that these two defeats were done on purpose, why don't you repeat Zhang Jing's mistake?"
"What should I do?" Mr. Wen was old and his mind was slow to move, so he could only deal with copywriting work. He was not a qualified staff member.
‘It’s a pity that Xu Wei was awarded the imperial examination.’ Hu Zongxian had a strange thought, and then sighed: “I can’t say that I have to rely on Master Yan…”
"Do you want to find him again?" Wen Zhengming sighed, "Look at this time, Zhao Wenhua hid far away as soon as the imperial envoy arrived. It can be seen that Dongweng should not be with him." He is a firm opposition to the Yan Party.
Hu Zongxian shook his head and said, "If you don't rely on them, who can I rely on? Apart from Ge Lao Yan, who can solve the situation in Zhejiang? Those people want my life!" After sighing for a while, he said in fear: "This time is really too dangerous. If it weren't for Zhu Yan's help, I would have been attacked by Zhao Zhenji and escorted to Beijing."
"Xie Yuanlang is indeed a master." Thinking of the unexpected move of silence, Wen Zhengming couldn't help but laugh and said, "By the way, I have seen many disciples come to the government office to collect the road and lead the yellow flag. It seems that the time to go to Beijing to take the exam. I wonder if Jie Yuanlang can set off on time?"
"It's unlikely," Hu Zongxian shook his head and said, "He is an imperial envoy. He is doing business, how can he abolish the public for personal gain?"
"I am an imperial envoy. I am doing business. How can I depose my public because of my personal gain?" Chen Si shook his head and sighed, "So you should go first. As soon as I have business here, I will chase you up." His body had already recovered, but he just didn't want to see Zhao Butang's stinky face, so he had been taking a sick person in the inn.
Since he is sick, he naturally cannot see anyone casually. Therefore, during these eight or nine days, anyone who visited him was blocked, allowing him and Miss Yin to live a comfortable life of being kind and mixing oil in honey.
Until today, there are guests who have to be seen. Six members of his Qionglin Club came together to express their sincere condolences for his illness, and more importantly, they asked him if he could still go to Beijing together.
After hearing the silent and negative answer, everyone showed disappointment. Tao Yuchen said, "It's November in a blink of an eye. Senior brother, don't be late."
"Don't worry, there are more than three months left." Chen Shu smiled and said, "I guess the matter here will be delayed for at most one month, and maybe it won't be used for half a month."
"Then let's wait for you?" everyone said.
"Don't," Chen Si shook his head and said, "Have you heard someone say that? If you go late, you don't even have a place to live. You should take the lead and I can enjoy the fruits of it." Everyone then gave up.
After silently, he set up a banquet to show off his six friends. However, because he was not allowed to go together, there was a bit of sorrow of separation on the table, which made people feel a little uncomfortable.
During the meal, Sun Jian asked, "How is the matter in Hangzhou? Has the envoy behind the scenes found out?"
"See what you said," Wu Dui smiled and said, "If I could find out, wouldn't Zhu Yan go to Beijing with us?"
Silence didn't want them to worry about it, so he smiled and said, "It should be soon..."
Everyone heard that he was unwilling to say more, so they tactfully changed the topic. After dinner, they talked about the moon and the sky. Because they were about to set off the road the next day, they could only stop and go back to their rooms to sleep.
The next morning, Chen Mo went to the dock to send them off, and found that a passenger ship was full of candidates who went to Beijing to take the exam. Many people recognized Yuanlang and said hello to him, and asked no exception: "Why haven't you set off yet?" Chen Mo felt very uncomfortable, and forced a smile to deal with it for a while, and finally sent all the people away.
The passenger ship will carry the men through the Grand Canal to Beijing, the capital of the Ming Dynasty.
"But I'm not on the boat..." Silence couldn't help but sigh.
"I'm not on the boat either." A narrow voice sounded, Chen Si suddenly turned around, and then he saw Xu Wei smirking and wandering out from behind the pile of sacks.
Seeing that he seemed to be a ghost, Xu Wei scratched his head and said, "What, is there anything wrong?"
He said silently: "Why are you not on the boat? I clearly saw you go up."
"Hi, won't you come down?" Xu Wei smiled and said, "I've noticed it again. I heard that Beijing is cold, dry and dirty, so I won't go so early."
Silent nose felt a little sore and said, "Do you see that I'm lost?"
"What? What are you losing?" Xu Wei fussed: "You have money, power and women, you are not qualified to be lost. It is me who should be lost, Xu Wenchang, who has no money, power and women."
Silently, this guy always talks about right and wrong, so he no longer entangles these details. Because there are many words between men that can only be understood but cannot be expressed in words. It is enough for everyone to know that this is the case.
When he went back to the carriage, Xu Wei asked, "Can you tell me now, why are you confused?"
Silently smiled, "How do you know I'm confused? I never seemed to show it." This was equivalent to admitting.
"I am Xu Wenchang, who has insight into people's hearts," Xu Wei laughed and said, "Tell me quickly."
After a while of silence, Chen Silent whispered: "I am very conflicted now. On the one hand, I am my future and the happiness of my whole family, and on the other hand, the overall situation of Zhejiang and the situation of fighting against the Japanese. I don't know how to make a choice when I have to choose?"
"Can you say it's more specific?" Xu Wei whispered: "I won't tell anyone."
"I can't tell you the exact details, because it hasn't happened yet." Chen Si shook his head and said, "But I have a premonition that I will definitely encounter this time."
"Hi, it turns out that it's a worry," Xu Wei breathed a sigh of relief and said indifferently: "Let's talk about it then."
"Is there anyone who enlightens people like you?" Chen Shu laughed and scolded.
