From the time Zhao Governor entered Lianfeng Academy to the time he came out, it took less than half an hour.
Wang Fengnian and Xu Yinjun never left the window.
His subordinates came to report that Governor Zhao had wandered around the place, spoke in an official tone, and spent the rest of the time drinking tea and reading articles.
Wang Fengnian asked again in detail, and his subordinates roughly recalled and recounted what Zhao Huien had said. There was nothing special about it.
"Does it mean that you are going in just to show off your authority?" Xu Yinjun said.
Wang Fengnian raised his eyebrows lightly and looked at the governor's sedan that had reached the end of the long street in the distance.
He always felt that things would not be that simple. If he was talking about showing off his prestige, then why was the official tone so careless?
If you don't bother to show off your authority, then what is the purpose of this trip?
And it is even more impossible to say that he is not good at rhetoric and cannot come up with official accents.
I just arrived here today and met with Xu Yinjun. Xu Yinjun first explained Kang Jian's injury in detail, and then what he was most worried about was Zhiyu Waterside.
Zhao Ning is one of the big shots in Hengxiang who can cause an earthquake in half the city with just one stamp of his foot. There are always a lot of eyes on Zhao Ning.
Yesterday, Zhao Ning personally rode a carriage and stopped in front of Zhiyu Waterside Pavilion. Xu Yinjun was worried that this would make Zhiyu Waterside Pavilion, which had been keeping a low profile for a long time, also be targeted by others, so Xu Yinjun thought that maybe it would be better to change the place.
Wang Fengnian was hesitant. The difficulty was precisely because of Zhao Hui'en and Zhao Governor.
Zhao Huien created her own household registration system last month, which started in the middle of last month and imposed strict restrictions on residences.
Although the other shops and houses owned by Wang Fengnian Real Estate each have their own names and registered residences, they were all targeted by the government officials because of the overlap.
On the contrary, Zhiyu Shuixie is registered under the name of a fake gentleman who does not exist in Dongping Academy, and people from the Yamen will not pay much attention to it.
Since Zhao Hui'en came to power, he has issued more than one decree, using various clever excuses to increase exorbitant taxes on merchants.
The official accents on the official notices were spoken one after another, very loud and smooth.
And if these decrees are said to be good for ordinary people, they are not. They are almost used to enrich the treasury of him and his party members.
But the funny thing is that this confidence was given to him by the prosperous world phenomenon caused by the worldly theory of Lianfeng Academy.
"Huh?" Xu Yinjun said at this time, his eyes falling on a young boy in the crowd below.
Wang Fengnian followed his gaze, but didn't know who he was looking at because there were too many people.
"That boy seems to have a good relationship with Kang Jian." Xu Yinjun said.
"Which one?"
"The one in the brown cloth shirt has many patches on his body. He is walking eastward, as if he is looking for someone."
Wang Fengnian saw it, looked at it for a while, and said: "This is not looking for someone, but following someone."
Xu Yinjun looked in front of the young boy, and after a while, he said: "Maybe it's the lame one."
Wang Fengnian said "hmm" and found that the young boy raised his hands to rub his shoulders from time to time, with a look of pain on his face.
"He seems to be injured." Wang Fengnian said.
"You have a lot of manpower, why don't you send someone to help keep an eye on the limp?" Xu Yinjun said suddenly.
Wang Fengnian glanced at him, then looked at the young boy below: "That's fine, he might have been bullied."
After speaking, Wang Fengnian turned behind him and asked Daheng to arrange a man to keep up with the lame man below.

Valley bullying
The bronze chime bell in front of the Lianfeng Academy, just played, aroused great interest among the scholars from all over the world who came to Hengxiang.
Those enthusiasms and boxing ambitions reached their peak in an instant, and all kinds of high-spirited talks appeared from time to time.
There are also various conflicts that have existed in the past few months, such as literati being indifferent to each other, contradictory ideas, geographical repulsion, hostile forces, etc. The quarrels are even more intense today.
Wang Fengnian had other important matters, and Xu Yinjun was worried about Kang Jian and wanted to go back.
Before leaving, Xu Yinjun asked Zhiyu Shuixie if he could think of another solution.
Wang Fengnian said he would try his best to find another place, but would immediately arrange for manpower to protect him secretly.
However, this is what Xu Yinjun is least worried about.
Xu Yinjun knew how good the secret guards who had followed Du Xuan back from traveling were. From beginning to end, he was not worried about his own safety, but worried about not being able to complete the mission.
Back at Zhiyu Waterside Pavilion, Du Xuan was taking Kang Jian's pulse.
Kang Jian half-leaned on the bed and said nothing, fearing to disturb Du Xuan's rhythm.
Seeing Xu Yinjun return, Du Xuan said: "A man came to see you just now. He should be in the side hall next to your study now."
Xu Yinjun remembered that he had made an appointment with one of his subordinates to meet today, so he hurriedly thanked Du Xuan and left quickly.
Du Xuan looked at his walking figure and couldn't help but sigh: "This is Ah Li."
"...This, this is Xu Yinjun." Kang Jian thought he was stupid.
"What are you thinking," Du Xuan said, "Of course I know he is Xu Yinjun, and I admire Ah Li. A flood in Weiping Mansion displaced tens of millions of people, and Xu Yinjun was one of the refugees. But you see, Ah Li
I made him a supervisor and then transferred him to Hengxiang. When he first left, I didn't know what he was going to do. Now that we are reunited, he has completely changed and has become so capable and prosperous."
"I heard that Manager Wang was also found by Miss Ali." Kang Jian said.
"Ah Li~" Du Xuan laughed, "Look, she's not even here, but I feel like she's right next to me."
As he said that, the smile on Du Xuan's face suddenly became deeper and deeper, and became a bit cunning.
This mean expression made Kang Jian amused: "What did you think of?"
"I thought that Ah Li was not with us, but she was with the young master!"
"Hehehe..." Kang Jian's smile also changed.
Before the two of them had laughed enough, they saw Xu Yinjun running back.
"Mr. Du Xuan!" Xu Yinjun said urgently, "Are you the only one coming this time?"
Du Xuan was frightened by his expression, but he couldn't quite understand what he meant: "What are we, a group of people? Where are we coming from?"
Xu Yinjun held several letters in his hand. He handed over the one he had just opened: "This is from Youzhou! It's a letter from Master Zhan Qi!"
Du Xuan hurriedly unfolded the letter, glanced at it and was shocked: "Sister Shuanglan is not with us! I didn't even see her on the road!"
After saying that, Du Xuan slapped his forehead: "I don't think we are following the official path. We have too much time to think about, so we went on a trip to the mountains and rivers. If we hadn't saved someone along the way, we might not have arrived until tomorrow."
Xu Yinjun said anxiously: "If it is according to what the letter says, the three girls set off only half a day after you, then they should have arrived early."
"Yes, they should be busy trying to catch up with us. They can't think about traveling around. They should have arrived a few days ago."
"Then they should be in Hengxiang now?" Kang Jian said.
The word "should" made both Du Xuan and Xu Yinjun feel like their hairs stood on end.
"Let's go look for it," Du Xuan Surong said, "They are all girls' families. If anything happens, it may be a disaster."
