The day after Xia Xun rushed back to Huzhou City from Nanxun Town, a Jin Yiwei dressed in casual clothes quietly came to the prefect's Yamen. [ ] The gate guard first found the old man, and after seeing Fu Guogong's close bodyguard, the Jin Yiwei came to the magistrate's office. He explained his true identity. After Lao Pang checked his Jinyiwei waist badge, he immediately took him to see Xia Xun.
"My lord, this is the secret message that the governor asked me to give to my lord!"
The Jin Yiwei took out a secret letter from the upper layer of the shoe and handed it to Xia Xun. Xia Xun checked that the lacquer seal was correct. When he opened the letter, he couldn't help being secretly surprised. Liu Yujue's letter naturally did not mention the Taoist surname. Understand, there is not even an inscription or signature, and the content is very implicit. People who don’t know the inside story may not be able to guess what is being said after seeing this letter. But how could he not understand what Xia Xun personally told Liu Yujue? ?
Xia Xun's face changed slightly, and he immediately lit a candle and burned the secret letter in front of his face. Only when the letter was burned down to the last piece, did he gently let go and let the piece of paper fall to the ground and burn to ashes.
"Go back and tell Mr. Liu that he has done a good job. You should be more careful and keep an eye on him!"
"As you command!"
Xia Xun nodded, and Lao Fan led the Jin Yiwei of Nanzhen Fusi away. Xia Xun's brows immediately knitted tightly.
He had already received a letter from home and knew that Zi Qi had gone back to Shandong with his children for funerals, but he did not expect that this would attract Ji Gang's attention. The Eight King Kongs were halfway through, bringing with them no less than a hundred people. Such a large battle must have What was discovered.
If Ji Gang was following Xie Xie, Xiaodi or even Su Ying, who was a pirate, Xia Xun wouldn't panic at all, but the Peng family... the Peng family's secret identity was the emperor's backstabbing! Although he deliberately induced him In recent years, the Peng family has gradually neglected academic affairs and focused on making money through business. However, once this identity is exposed, it will still be a disaster.
The White Lotus Sect has penetrated deeply into the people, and there are too many ordinary believers. When the imperial court encircled and suppressed the White Lotus Sect, it never exterminated ordinary people. Ordinary believers who had worshiped in the incense hall and entered the religious altar, as long as they did not rebel with guns, destroyed them After the church, Todoroki can just go home, but those big and small bosses, core figures... will never let him go.
Who would believe that with the power of the Peng family, if they were from Bailian, they would be an ordinary believer?
If we know the true identity of Old Mrs. Peng again...
Xia Xun stood up excitedly, wishing he could fly to Shandong immediately.
"Don't panic, don't panic, the more serious things happen, the less you should panic!"
Xia Xun rubbed it and gently closed his eyes.
Ever since he pretended to be Yang Xu and became a scholar in Qingzhou, he has experienced many thrills. However, in recent years, he has rarely encountered such a life-or-death crisis. And this time is not only dangerous, but may even turn into a crisis for the whole family. life and death crisis.
After closing his eyes and thinking for a long time, Xia Xun's breathing gradually calmed down. He leaned on the chair, closed his eyes slightly, and said nothing. He sat like this for more than an hour before he gradually cleared his mind.
"Ahem, here comes someone!"
Xia Xun said hello, and Lao Fan immediately walked in.
At this hour, several groups of people had come to see Xia Xun. However, Lao Pang went to the door and reported several times, but Xia Xun turned a deaf ear. Lao Pang was uneasy and quietly opened the door to check. He saw that his master was in good condition. Sitting on the chair, his chest rose and fell slightly, as if he was taking a nap. The old man didn't dare to disturb him, so he went out again, looking for any excuse to coax everyone away.
Since then, he has been waiting outside the door, waiting for Xia Xun to summon him. When Xia Xun called, he immediately walked in and bowed to obey his orders.
Xia Xun said: "Ask Gao Chu to come see me!"
Lao spray was stunned for a moment and said: "My lord, I don't know...who is Gao Chu?"
Xia Xun said: "The one who drives the car for me."
Lao Jing patted the back of his head and suddenly realized: "Oh, the coachman Xiao Gao, what are you looking for him for? Yes, yes, yes, Lao Jing will go right away!"
Lao Pen left in a hurry, and within a moment, Gao Chu stood in front of Xia Xun.
She has a thin and strong body, fair skin, and always smiles like a young girl with a very gentle temper. From groom to driver, this profession has been very good since ancient times. Of course, this refers to
A driver who serves dignitaries. A qualified driver must be discerning, diligent, and keep his mouth shut.
Basically, he is just like the horse pulling the cart. No matter where he goes, people pay attention to the people in the cart, and no one will notice him. Although he is responsible for driving the cart for Xia Xun, even Xia Xun
The confidants and guards only call him Xiao Gao, and no one remembers his name. But such an inconspicuous person is usually one of the car owner's confidants.
At this moment, groom Xiao Gao was standing in front of Xia Xun, calm and calm. Many officials might feel a little embarrassed when they were around Xia Xun, but he might not appear calm.
There were only two of them in the room, and Xiao Gao asked calmly: "My lord, is something big going on?"
Xia Xun nodded heavily: "Yes, you go to Shandong immediately, to Pengjiazhuang, Qingzhou, find Mrs. Qi, and give her my handwritten letter. Then..."
Xia Xun whispered to him. No matter what he heard, Xiao Gao didn't show any surprise or panic on his face. He listened so carefully. It wasn't until Xia Xun finished his instructions that he nodded, took the letter and held it close to his body.
He hid it, cupped his fists and raised his hands to Xia Xun, turned around and walked out.
Xia Xun stood in silence for a long time and murmured: "Old Ji, are you trying to get dirty information about me? You are forcing me to fall out!"

"Your Majesty, the people of the four counties have suffered from floods. All the old and old grains have been lost, new seedlings have not yet matured, the old and the young are crying, and they are hungry and have no complaints. Although the imperial court provides food relief and the local governments can help themselves and temporarily settle the victims, relief efforts cannot
If it continues into the Ming and Autumn Period, the tragedy of selling one's sons and daughters will become inevitable in our prosperous age of Yongle.
I believe that it is better to teach people to fish than to teach them to fish. Today, the Great Baoen Temple in Kyoto requires more than 100,000 workers, and people from all over the country need to take turns to come to Beijing to serve. If the people who were affected by the disaster in eastern Zhejiang can go to Kyoto to build the Great Baoen Temple.
For one thing, if we use work instead of relief, the victims will be able to settle down and avoid troubles, and people from all over the world will be spared the pain of running around..."
After several days of review, a series of crimes committed by Chang Yinglin emerged one after another. Xia Xun wrote about the entire disaster relief process, the disaster situation in various places, the relief situation, the performance of the military and civilians, especially a series of problems that occurred in Huzhou.
In the memorial, a separate section is taken out at the end, focusing on the arrangements for the affected people after the disaster relief.
With Xia Xun dictating and Xia Yuanji writing, the memorial took an entire afternoon to write. Xia Yuanji checked it several times to confirm that there were no typos or contaminations before handing it over to Xia Xun for signature and sealing, and sent it to his confidants.
Send him to the capital immediately.
After this matter was dealt with, Xia Xun left the prefect's Yamen and headed outside the city. Because the water was slowly receding, the people who fled outside Huzhou City heard the news and were worried about the pots and jars at home and were eager to return to their hometowns. The government distributed a certain amount of money based on population.
After providing food relief, the victims have been returning to their hometowns one after another in the past few days.
The top leadership team of Huzhou Prefecture was almost taken over by Yu Shiji. Fortunately, the grassroots officials are still there. Most of them have no major problems. They follow the example and follow the example. There are more or less corruptions, but the crimes are not obvious and the harm is not harmful.
Da, when Yu Shiji came, if there was any problem, they should be raided. But when all the local officials in Huzhou came to kill them all, at the critical moment of disaster relief, who was going to handle the disaster relief?
This is not a child's play. If you can't do it, I can just pick up a friend and let him do it. How can the officials of the imperial court give it to each other privately? You wait for the imperial court to appoint officials again, and then wait for them to get familiar with it.
By the time the local government knew its subordinates and prepared to open an office to do business, the victims would have long since starved to death, or gathered in the mountains and forests to rob and rob their homes.
Therefore, under the unanimous control of Xia Xun and Xia Yuanji, Yu Shiji's attack range was not further expanded.
The gentry and common people in Huzhou were completely mobilized. Once the long-pent-up anger broke out, the common people who were once like sheep and could only play the role of minor sufferers turned into angry lions. In recent days, they have publicly demanded the execution of a number of corrupt officials in retaliation.
The people of Huzhou became more and more vocal in repaying the victims who died in the disaster. First, it was the people affected by the disaster who petitioned, and then the people in the city petitioned. Now the gentry also nominated respected figures as representatives and handed Yu Qingtian the Letter of the People.
Yu Shiji could keep his composure at first, and he sent all the petitions to Xia Xun, but Xia Xun could keep his composure even more than he did. He always ran out of Huzhou City and went to villages and towns for on-the-spot inspections.
No official deceived anyone, and whether they were vague about the disaster relief matters. As for the accusations and petitions submitted by Yu Shiji, Xia Xun was equally saddened, indignant, and understanding, but he could not hear the word "kill" from his mouth.
"Character.
Yu Shiji was anxious. At first, Xia Xun supported him in investigating Chang Yinglin. He thought that the Duke of Fu was selfless, had no distractions, and would not give Ji Gang any face. Now, I dare say that the Duke of Fu is slipperier than a loach. Chang Yinglin
Both himself and Xia Yuanji heard about the case in court. If the Duke of Fu did not investigate, once it reached the ears of the emperor, it would definitely be detrimental to him, and he would not fail to investigate.
But after he investigated, he hid behind the scenes and used himself to investigate and deal with this corrupt official. Now that the truth of the case was revealed, he wrote to the court and explained the process, without any decision to kill as he did in Liaodong. You can understand this as waiting for the Holy Spirit
It can also be understood that he is giving Ji Gang face and leaving room for mediation. Once Ji Gang can really convince the emperor...
Yu Shiji couldn't sit still, so...
When Xia Xun was about to arrive at Dongcheng, countless people gathered around several respected old men in Huzhou City to welcome Xia Xun.
"My lord, Chang Yinglin has done many evil things. God is angry and people are being wronged. Not killing him is not enough to make the people angry!"
"My lord, kill corrupt officials!"
"The souls of those who died unjustly are in the sky!"
Seeing them raising their arms and shouting like this, Xia Xun frowned slightly: "How did you come back?"
At this time, the crowd dispersed, and Yu Shiji walked over with a solemn expression. The crowd immediately shouted excitedly: "Yu Qingtian is here! Mr. Qingtian is here!"
Yu Shiji walked up to Xia Xun, stood firmly with his feet apart, arched his hands, and said loudly in a clear voice: "My lord, the elders of Huzhou are very angry, and the lower officials have repeatedly tried to dissuade them, but they still
They could not be appeased, because the lower officials could not take the initiative, so the elders came to petition the Duke. The Duke and the lower officials also thought that Chang Yinglin and his gang of traitors had committed heinous crimes. If they did not kill them, the people would not be angry, so the lower officials
I am willing to speak on behalf of the people and plead for the people!"
He lifted up the train of his robe, knelt down straight, and said solemnly: "I ask the Duke to sacrifice the king's flag and kill the common thieves to bring justice to the world!"
When the Huzhou petitioners saw it, they immediately knelt down and a crowd of people crowded the long street. They shouted in unison: "Please sacrifice the king's flag and kill the common thieves to bring justice to the world!"
: Every morning when I first wake up, I feel like there is no liquid in my eye sockets, and my dry eyeballs hurt when I turn them. I always close my eyes first, apply some eye drops, and moisten them before opening my eyes. However, during the day, things are usually fine.
, but these two days have become a bit serious. People are old and shed tears when facing the wind. I shed tears when I hear something. I couldn't hold it anymore yesterday, so I rested first and only updated 7,000. I will continue to work hard today! Advertisement: National Treasure
