Hu Shining originally thought that Xu Jin was successful and made great contributions in a young age. He was inevitably more frivolous. However, when he met, he found that the other party was gentle and humble, and he was calm and moderate in dealing with others. He couldn't help but look up a little bit and happily introduced the officials present to Xu Jin.

Xu Jin looked at the large group of senior Shandong province bureaucrats with enthusiastic smiles in front of him, and felt very uncomfortable, because most of the guys present would soon become their own prisoners and be judged by the Ming Dynasty's law.

After calmly greetings with the officials, Xu Jin led the crowd into Jinan City and headed straight to the Governor's Office. The reception banquet was ready and was held at the Governor's Office.

In addition to the Jinyiwei, there were also two hundred cavalry led by Wang Liner, and the rest of the guards camped outside Jinan City. It is worth mentioning here that the Jinan Guard did not follow Xu Jin back to Jinan, but was stationed in Tai'an City in a row.

In addition, Qingzhou Wei, Yanzhou Wei and Andong Wei were also transferred back to their original garrison, so this time the only ones who came to Jinan with Xu Jin were Guide Wei, Linqing Wei and Xuzhou Wei. Among them, Guide Wei and Xuzhou Wei were both troops from other provinces, which naturally made those old foxes with keen sense of smell smell unusual smells, such as the governor An Huaxing and Luo Hongtu, who were a little anxious at this moment.

As the saying goes, I never do bad things in my life, and I don’t be surprised if I knock on the door in the middle of the night. An Huaxing and Luo Hongtu are both unclean, and they are one of the highest-end existences in the interest chain of stealing official grain. They also participated in the 10,000 stones of grain transported to Liubu Town to invest in the enemy. Otherwise, the eunuch Luo Xiang alone would not be able to get so much grain in a short time. Ten thousand stones were converted into a market kilogram, which was 1.2 million kilograms, which was not a small amount.

Whether it is participating in theft and selling official grain or secretly investing in the enemy, it is undoubtedly a death row, especially the enemy, which is like a rebellion, which is enough to confiscate the house and behead him. Therefore, An Huaxing and Luo Hongtu are inevitably uneasy. You must know that the young imperial envoy with a bright smile in front of you is a ruthless man. With a command, hundreds of heads fell to the ground. From Yanzhou Prefecture to Jinan Prefecture, there are no one thousand heads cut off, and there are eight hundred.

Indeed, this is not an exaggeration at all. When Xu Jin investigated the deficit case of the granary, he directly cut down a hundred officials in charge of the warehouse, and then recovered Sishui County, Xintai County, Laiwu County, and Tai'an County. Every time a county is recovered, he will arrest the remnants of Bailian. Any disciples of the White Lotus Sect will be executed, and all the bandits who killed the Ming army will be executed. The methods are fierce and cruel, which confirms the nickname "Xu Behead".

"It turns out that the imperial envoy is so young and pretty. I heard that his nickname was Xu Behead, but I thought he was a guy with a fat face. He didn't look fierce at all, and he smiled warmly."

"I heard that Lord Xu is still a tanta from the current test. He won five yuan in a row and was very talented."

When the imperial envoy's ceremonial guards completely entered the city, the onlookers dispersed with relish, and a middle-aged couple, who were not good-looking, also entered Jinan City among the crowd watching the fun.

When he was nowhere to be left, the middle-aged man with a frosty face snorted to the ground and cursed: "Xu Luozi is so proud now. After returning to Beijing, he will be promoted. These are all exchanged for the blood and lives of our brothers. It's hateful, really hateful. I wish I could kill him with one knife."

The middle-aged man with a frosty face was Qiu Fu after disguise, and the middle-aged woman next to him with a yellow complexion was Xue Bingxin. The two of them escaped the checkpoints of the officers and soldiers, fled from Daqingshan, and prepared to sneak into Jinan City to buy medicine. But they happened to meet Xu Jin's imperial envoy entering the city.

Although Xue Bingxin was a little more dissatisfied, her light blue eyes could not be concealed, so she lowered her eyes most of the time and said indifferently: "Senior Brother Qiu, don't cause too much trouble. After taking the medicine, we will leave the city."

Qiu Fu stared at the imperial envoy flying dragon flag in the distance and said stubbornly: "I know, but it may not be enough to have medicine alone. It is best to get a doctor back to treat the brothers."

Xue Bingxin nodded deeply, so the two of them first found an inn and then began to purchase medicinal materials separately. In order to avoid arousing suspicion, the two did not dare to purchase a large amount of injury medicine in the same pharmacy. Instead, they bought some of this one and another one, so they couldn't handle it for a while.

...

The Administrative Office and the Criminal Censorate Office are three provincial administrative agencies, collectively known as the "Three Offices", which are in charge of administration, judicial and military.

The Chief of the General Administration Office has two chief executives, namely the Left Chief of the General Administration Office and the Right Chief of the General Administration Office. Although both of them have second ranks, they are actually respected by the Left Chief of the General Administration Office. The Right Chief of the General Administration Office is relatively small, and it only plays a certain role in checks and balances. Therefore, the Left Chief of the General Administration Office usually lives in the back yamen of the General Administration Office, while the Right Chief of the General Administration Office can only find another place to live.

Today, this welcome banquet was held in the yamen of the General Secretary. There were not many officials qualified to be on the same seat as the imperial envoy, including: Governor Hu Shining, Left Governor An Huaxing, Right Governor Luo Hongtu, Chief Censor Wang Gang, Chief Commander Su Xingchang, Deputy Censor Shangguan Renjie (also known as the Grand Master of the School), and the 61st generation Yansheng Gong Kong Wenshao.

By the way, Kong Wenshao came from Qufu in advance. I don’t know if he wanted to have a good relationship with Xu Jin, a popular political star, or for other reasons, but he rushed more than 300 miles to Jinan City in the cold weather, and his sincerity was indeed full.

After three rounds of wine, the atmosphere became warmer. Everyone exchanged cups and laughed lightly. It was okay to drink, and the atmosphere was harmonious and harmonious. The officials present, who were nervous, couldn't help but feel relieved when they saw Xu Jin talking and laughing with everyone. It seemed that Xu's beheading was not as terrible as the rumored one.

At this moment, Xu Jin suddenly stopped the cup and asked, "Why didn't the guardian Eunuch Luo come today?"

Suddenly, the hearts of the officials were raised. The Zuo Gonggong An Huaxing smiled and said, "I heard that Eunuch Luo was feeling the cold and was lying in bed at home to recuperate."

Xu Jin said oh as if nothing had happened, thinking, I'm afraid I won't dare to come!

At this time, Yan Shenggong Kong Wenshao suddenly interrupted and said, "Kong visited Eunuch Luo this morning, and he really felt the cold. Oh, by the way, Eunuch Luo also asked Kong to apologize to Lord Xu."

Xu Jin felt aroused and said in surprise: "What does Eunuch Luo mean?"

Kong Wenshao smiled and said, "Mr. Xu and Eunuch Luo had a dispute outside Yuncheng County in the past. Afterwards, Eunuch Luo also regretted it, but he couldn't help but apologize to Mr. Xu, so he used Kong's words to spread the message. Haha, Eunuch Luo was also blinded by the prefect of Yanzhou Song Chi at that time. Can Mr. Xu give Kong a face? This matter is revealed?"

Xu Jin couldn't help but suddenly realize that this man came from afar to be a lobbyist for Luo Xiang, but I'm sorry, so what about Yan Shenggong? Luo Xiang must die this time. Whether it was to murder the imperial envoy, to collude with the enemy, or to steal and sell official food, it was enough for him to confiscate his family and exterminate the clan.

As soon as Kong Wenshao said this, the hall quieted down. Even the officials next to him raised their ears, eager to know how the imperial envoy, who is known for his toughness, would answer. If Xu Jin was willing to let Luo Xiang go, no one should worry.

Governor Hu Shining frowned. Although he had just arrived in Shandong in August, he still heard about some things, such as the case of stealing official grain and murdering the imperial envoy. As a veteran in the officialdom, he could not notice anything. However, since he was brought to the Jinyiwei Prison two years ago, Hu Shining has become much more skilled in dealing with people and things. He was a newcomer and did not want to get involved in this vortex, so he chose to watch it on the wall.

Xu Jin smiled and said, "It turns out that it was the matter in Yuncheng County. If Duke Yan Sheng didn't mention it, Xu Jin would forget it. Come on, let's have a drink."

The officials here felt relieved when they heard this. Xu Jin's implicit meaning was that he agreed to Yan Shenggong and no longer looked for Luo Xiang's bad luck. That's great!

Kong Wenshao smiled proudly. With his signature as the descendant of Confucius, all scholars in the world had to give themselves face, including Yang Tinghe, the chief minister of the cabinet.

"Mr. Xu is generous, come on, Kong, toast you a glass." Kong Wenshao took the initiative to raise the glass to toast Xu Jin, and Xu Jin smiled and had a drink with him.

As a result, the atmosphere during the meal became more harmonious and harmonious. The bureaucrats were drinking with peace of mind. Xu Jin was willing to let Luo Xiang go, so he would not make things difficult for others, right?

A group of officials were having a banquet in front. In the boudoir of the governor's rear yamen, a concubine's daughter, the left governor An Huaxing, was lying on the bed crying, while a beautiful woman next to her was persuading her earnestly.

"Xin'er, I just came to the front and peeked at Xu Jin. It was handsome and young. The key was that he made great contributions at a young age. It is certain that he will be promoted after returning to Beijing. His future will be unlimited. Marrying him as a concubine will not be considered a humiliation..."

The girl lying on the bed raised her head and sniffed and cried, "Mom, no matter how handsome Xu Jin is, no matter how long he has a future, what does it have to do with her daughter? Anyway, her daughter will not be a concubine for others to be beaten to death."

The girl's name is An Xin'er. She looks about fifteen or sixteen years old. She looks pretty and looks pretty. She is a beauty, but she is crying at this time.

The beautiful woman Wen, who was sitting by the bed, was the concubine of the governor An Huaxing, who was also An Xiner's biological mother.

Wen frowned and said, "Silly girl, how about being a concubine? Isn't my mother also a concubine for your father? She is not a concubine with gold and silver, and a wealth of clothes and food. She is more than a hundred times better than those mud legs. Then Xu Jin's future official may be older than your father, and he is young and handsome. It is your blessing to be able to marry him as a concubine!"

An Xin'er retorted: "What about the rich clothes and food? Isn't it that I am being called around by the official family? What's the difference between it and the servants? If you meet a fierce shrew, you will die in vain if you are beaten to death. Mother, you are going to push your daughter into the fire pit!"

Wen's eyes turned red and she sighed, "Xin'er, who told you that you are a concubine?"

An Xiner immediately said, "Look, be a concubine for others, even if you have children, you will be inferior to others. If you beat me to death, I will not be a concubine for others!"

"Oh, but your father's future, even his fortune, life, is in his hands. How can he have a complete egg after the nest is destroyed? If something happens to your father, we can't fall into trouble. Heart, you agree, beg you as your mother!" Wen said, and knelt down in front of the bed.
