"General Xia, I am from Quanzhou. I have always known about the use of the imperial guards of the Zhao family. This time I came here, I wanted to discuss with General Xia. The Left Wing Army is the front office of the Palace, and it is the responsibility of appeasement of the local area. The bento is to arrest the thieves and destroy the thieves as the main task."

There were two people sitting in the Quanzhou Prefectural Office, one was naturally the Quanzhou Prefectural Office Zhao Jiaren, and the other was Xia Jing, the commander of the Left-wing Army. Xia Jing listened to the young prefect saying the truth here, and showed some embarrassment and helpless expressions on his face.

Zhao Jiaren didn't care about that much. After he talked about his thoughts, he asked the other party about his opinion, "General Xia, I wonder what you meant?"

When asked, Xia Jing hesitated and said, "This... the imperial guards have done responsibilities as guards for the royal family..."

After hearing what Xia Jing said, Zhao Jiaren smiled and said, "If Commander Xia said this, you might as well call up the brothers of the Left-wing Army and ask Commander Xia to say this to them in public. Oh, as the governor of Quanzhou, I originally had the responsibilities of controlling the Left-wing Army. Let me tell the brothers of the Left-wing Army that I think they should not be enlisted by the Zhao family."

Originally, Xia Jing tried his best to maintain a polite expression on his face, and Zhao Jiaren's words completely changed the face of the left-wing army commander. He said angrily: "Zhao Zhizhou, are you asking me to make a fool of myself in public?"

Zhao Jiaren was originally going to make things clear. Facing Xia Jing's criticism, Zhao Jiaren replied seriously: "If Commander Xia knew that the brothers of the Left-wing Army did not want to be sent to others, why pretend not to offend anyone? As the saying goes, sugarcane cannot be sweet at both ends. Either offend Zhao or offend the brothers of the Left-wing Army. You have to choose one."

At this time, Zhao Jiaren's name had spread on Fujian Road. Xia Jing knew that this young civil servant was proficient in military affairs, especially in naval forces. During the Battle of Ezhou, the Mongolian army was killed and killed on the Yangtze River. There were rumors before at the headquarters of the Left-wing Army in Jianning Prefecture that Zhao Jiaren and the Pu family were quite hostile, and there was a conflict between the two sides at the sea. The Pu family obviously did not have the upper hand.

After looking at Zhao Jiaren again, Xia Jing felt a feeling from Zhao Jiaren that only a guy who had killed someone with his own hands. Moreover, the young magistrate hung a thin sword around his waist. For decades, Xia Jing had never seen the magistrate wear a sword himself. Since the other party was not a literati who could fool him casually, Xia Jing was unwilling to cause trouble. He put away his dissatisfaction expression and retreated, "The magistrate of Quanzhou has always been restraining the Quanzhou Left-wing Army. At this time, Zhao Zhizhou would just ask the brothers of the Left-wing Army to talk to him."

"Since Commander Xia is so polite, I'm not." Zhao Jiaren was in a very happy mood after fulfilling his wish.

Xia Jing refused Zhao Jiaren's invitation to lunch and left the magistrate's yamen. The young Zhao family was so disgusting. The Zhao family who were serving the left wing army as escorts were just looking for a show. The magistrate Zhao Jiaren was much more abominable than the Zhao family. He had used the system to implement his control over the left wing army. The imperial court agreed that Quanzhou magistrate controlled the left wing army in Quanzhou many years ago. Zhao Jiaren was the first Quanzhou magistrate who really wanted to use this power.

The headquarters of the Left Wing Army was not in Quanzhou, but in Jianning Prefecture. However, this army in the Palace Front Office was divided into three parts, partly stationed in Jianning Prefecture, partly stationed in Quanzhou, and partly stationed in Tingzhou, each controlled by the local magistrate. Xia Jing could not have been in charge of the Left Wing Army in Quanzhou, and Zhao Jiaren was so domineering, so Commander Xia just wanted to return to Jianning Prefecture early to rest.

Xia Jing led the guard to the city gate, and one person came down from the city gate. Zhu Qi, the deputy general of the Left-wing Army stationed in Quanzhou, stepped forward to salute, and then said, "General Xia, General Mo would like to have a meal together." After that, he took two steps forward and whispered to Xia Jing: "The general Mo had already remembered the commander to go and watch it."

The opera troupes in Quanzhou are very developed, and the Zhao family is endless, and they have to talk about pomp. Every big family has their own opera troupes, and there are more folk opera troupes. They have developed various repertoires, which are very famous throughout Fuzhou.

After hearing that his subordinates were so tactful, Xia Jing would naturally not refuse. During lunch, Xia Jingyu said to the deputy general Zhu Qi with a teasing, "You are blessed. Today, Zhao Zhizhou told me that Zhao family is not allowed to command the imperial guards."

After hearing this, Zhu Qi's expression changed. He said hesitantly: "Is it the matter that General Xia led the way?"

Xia Jing knew that Zhu Qi had something to say as soon as he heard it. He said with a pretext to get: "Don't you often say that the soldiers were sent to the Zhao family and their soldiers were suffering from it?"

"This... Zhao treats our Left Wing Army brothers as slaves, and of course everyone is angry. But Zhao also gives some money and rice. Brothers can at least subsidize some household income." Zhu Qi chose to tell the truth.

"Oh?!" Xia Jing immediately became happy when he heard this. The domineering magistrate Zhao Jiaren's magistrate of Quanzhou left a deep bad impression on Xia Jing. When he learned that Zhao Jiaren's actions were just a trap, Commander Xia Jing was so happy.

Holding up the wine glass, Xia Jing said, "We can only act on orders, and don't think so much about it. I'll have to do this."

After lunch, we had a rest in the afternoon. In the evening, Commander Xia, accompanied by Deputy General Zhu Qi, went to Donghu Lake. Donghu Lake is 4,000 acres in size and has a vast water surface. In the evening, we saw that there were already many cruise ships on the lake. These ships were different from the pleasure boats on Liangzhe Road. Many stages were either on the lakeside or on large boats in the lake. The cruise ships carried spectators to moor outside these stages to watch the show.

When he arrived at the shore, he saw someone waiting next to the cruise ship. Without Zhu Qi's introduction, Xia Jing knew Pu Shougen, the richest man in Quanzhou. He stepped forward to hold Pu Shougen's hand, and Xia Jing smiled and said, "Mr. Pu, I haven't seen you for a long time. You can see more Qingliang."

Pu Shougeng also smiled and said, "Commander Xia laughed. When he learned that Commander Xia was coming, he made a special trip to rent a boat and wanted to accompany Commander Xia to watch the show."

"But I'm troubled by Mr. Pu." Xia Jing said happily. Pu Shougeng seemed to have something to ask for Xia Jing, and Xia Jing felt that the time to make a fortune was finally here.

There were already women on the cruise ship, and Xia Jing was dressed in casual clothes and sat in the boat. The woman served tea and water on both sides and gave snacks. When Xia Jing teased them, professionals naturally knew how to flatter them. Watching the play in front, there were people waiting next to him, but Xia Jing didn't have to do anything. The women took chicken legs, snacks, and wine glasses and delivered them to him.

There would be no such treatment in Jianning Mansion. Xia Jing was very happy. All the unhappiness brought to him by the magistrate of Quanzhou Zhao Jiaren flew out to the sky. After watching a few plays, Pu Shougeng showed up slightly, and the women became tactful. Only Pu Shougeng, Xia Jing and Zhu Qi were left to talk together.

Pu Shougeng said: "Commander Xia, do you know that Zhao Jiaren asked his men to make a pirate business?"

When Xia Jing heard this, he felt that he saw a lot of money. The Pu family’s hands were not clean, and the upper class in Quanzhou had heard of it. It was unclear whether Zhao Jiaren was doing pirate business. The upper class in Quanzhou knew that Zhao Jiaren had a bad relationship with the Pu family. No matter what the Pu family requested, they had to take out the money first. Xia Jing didn’t have to do anything after taking the money. Since the Pu family had offended Zhao Jiaren, the governor of Quanzhou, would they dare to offend Xia Jing, the commander of the Left-wing Army?

Thinking of this, Xia Jing asked with a smile: "I don't know what Mr. Pu is referring to?"

On the shore of East Lake, someone was staring at Xia Jing and his group. Seeing that the boat seemed to have started talking about something, the man said to the people around him: "Go and tell the magistrate that Pu Shougeng has started talking about things with Xia Jing and Zhu Qi."

There were two people next to him, one of them left immediately. The other asked: "What are they talking about?"

After hearing this stupid question, the man answered unhappily: "If you can hear it so far, you can listen to it yourself. Don't pull me!"
