Chapter 404: Master: Master, this Wang Xuan is something you cant mess with!
The master's face turned red, and he broke out in a cold sweat. When the blade passed in front of him, the cold breath made him feel like he was about to die. At this moment, he only felt that his heartbeat was so fast, as if it was about to jump out of his chest.
.
Normally, these people in front of Wang Xuan's mansion are very polite. Even the big iron gate is open. There are so many people coming to Wang Xuan's mansion every day. How could such a kind person like Wang Xuan let the guard
Embarrass him.
But, isn’t this a special situation today?
"You, you, you, this is the new Fuzhou magistrate. I sent you a greeting card yesterday. How dare you do this... You are going to rebel!" The master who had recovered his strength jumped on his feet and shouted, who was behind him.
Xu Yangqiu also had a gloomy look on his face. For a guard to dare to do this shows how lawless Wang Xuan is.
"It doesn't matter whether you know the government or not, this is the palace, and you can break in at will. Wait here!" The guard glanced at the two of them coldly, and just stretched out his hand to pull a ring on the door.
Deal with the two of you again.
The prefect and the master looked at each other and could only swallow the sigh in their hearts. If they want to stay in Fuzhou safely, they must see Wang Xuan. As for the matter of the guard, they can only endure it. After all, if they make trouble with the guard
Come on, they are the ones who are embarrassed. Their identities are really not equal.
After a while, a small door slowly opened, and a man who looked like a butler came out. He glanced at the two people standing at the door and said, "This must be the new prefect of Fuzhou."
Looking at Xu Yangqiu, the expression on the butler's face did not change. He just spoke so lightly, as if in his eyes, the Fuzhou prefect was no different from a passerby.
Xu Yangqiu's face turned as dark as the bottom of a pot, and he kept breathing heavily from both nostrils. The master quickly pulled Xu Yangqiu's sleeves, took a step forward and said, "It's my master. I paid my respects yesterday."
Posted, I don’t know…”
"My husband has so many things to do every day, how can he have time to wait for you at home?" The housekeeper interrupted the master and said expressionlessly: "Right now, your husband is inspecting the shipyard. Before he left, he told me where you can go to find me.
Sir, sir, he will meet you in his spare time."
After saying that, the man who looked like a housekeeper no longer looked at Xu Yangqiu but turned around and walked back, "Bang!" The big iron door was closed again, leaving Xu Yangqiu alone with a pale face and trembling body.
He was actually looked down upon by others, even the slaves of a poor family in a shabby place. Even a government servant dared to look down on him, and several guards dared to swing their swords at his master. He was one of the largest families in the south of the Yangtze River, the Xu family.
His children!
How dare they!
How dare they do this!
Is there still king's law? Is there still law?
The master was also very angry, but after all, he was used to the warmth and coldness of the human world. He had not even passed the examination for so many years. In those years, he received more looks. Therefore, even though he wants to get angry now, he knows
Severity.
Turning around, he saw the prefect who was on the verge of an explosion. He quickly stretched out his hand to hold him, lowered his head and whispered in his ear: "Master, master, I can't get angry. At this moment, I don't know how many people are paying attention to our every move.
You must not lose your composure. When the time comes, it will be even more unpleasant to hear. Let’s talk in the carriage first!”
After saying that, he forcibly pulled Xu Yangqiu towards the carriage.
Xu Yangqiu also understood after being reminded by this. The other party was deliberately trying to show off to him, but he couldn't bear to be humiliated like this.
At this time, the master pushed him forcefully, but he just half-pushed and half-complied.
"Team leader, please wait over there." The master cleverly asked the yamen officer to step aside. Some words are not easy to spread, "Sir, put out the fire first, and be sure to stay calm. There is a saying that always calm down when facing big things.
Anger, the more critical this moment is, the more calm you must be!"
"Huh~huh~huh~" Xu Yangqiu took a few deep breaths, but his face was still very ugly, "Tell me, what should we do now."
In fact, when it comes to the ability to deal with these matters seriously, he is really not as good as the master. After all, the master is the serious person who is used to the world. Even for his daily work, most of it is handled by him.
"Master, it's obvious that we don't know where we offended each other, so Wang Xuan will probably make us look bad. But the more this happens, the more we have to see him. Just from what we saw today, we can know that this Fuzhou
The government is run by him like a monolith, and even within that government office, there must be his minions and spies all over the place. If you go against them, it will be bad..."
Having said this, the master shook his head and said, "If I don't do it well, my future orders won't be able to get out of this government office. By then, I may not be able to pass the annual examination. If the other party is playing tricks, I'm afraid that the master will
The hat is not guaranteed!”
"That's so presumptuous! You even want to take my hat off!" Hearing this, Xu Yangqiu couldn't help but yelled and cursed loudly.
The master quickly stood up from a squat, waving his hands constantly, and said anxiously: "Keep it down, keep it down, my prefect!"
"Hmph!" Xu Yangqiu's face was as dark as the bottom of a pot, "Tell me, how could he take the title of my official? You know, I am an official of the imperial court, and I am a member of the Xu family in Jiangnan!"
"My lord, there are too many methods. Just the fact that you can't collect taxes is enough for me to drink a pot. There are even more other methods. This is Fuzhou Prefecture. Just looking at Wang Xuan
I know from his power that the governor must also give me face. As long as I find some people to present a memorial to impeach me for accepting threats and robbing people's daughters, there are so many random charges."
"This, how is this possible? If this is the case, then what's the use of studying hard in the cold window, and why should I be an official?" Xu Yangqiu looked unbelieving.
"My lord, that's when there is no one-stopping figure in the local area. It's easy to say that the local families restrain each other, but this Wang Xuan, just what I heard about yesterday is scary enough. He can't be offended.
You can't mess with him."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Seeing the eager look on his master's face, Xu Yangqiu gradually calmed down, and his intuition told him that his master definitely knew something but did not dare to tell him.
"You speak, I listen!" After all, he is a talent from a big family and has seen many big disturbances in the court. Although he does not understand this kind of local methods, it does not mean that he is really incompetent.
"Wang Xuan has just sent out 500,000 acres of land and recruited nearly 30,000 soldiers and horses at the cost of 20 acres for each soldier. They are all truly green, because of the relationship between these 20 acres
, I am completely devoted to him!"
"What...what!" Xu Yangqiu almost screamed, but finally he reacted and covered his mouth tightly, but cold sweat dripped down his forehead.
After a long while, he said in a low voice and with confidence: "What is this Wang Xuan going to do? Is he trying to rebel? He has secretly raised so many private soldiers!"
"It can't be a rebellion! And it's not a private soldier. Basically everyone in Fujian knows about this!" The master shook his head firmly.
"Thirty thousand people are not called private soldiers? What are they called private soldiers? If there are so many people, he is not going to rebel. He is going crazy to allocate 500,000 acres of land! That's 500,000 acres!" Thinking of the meaning of that huge number.
, Xu Yangqiu looked at the master with a ferocious face and roared in a low voice.
"It is true that they are not private soldiers. They are all soldiers from the five guard stations along the coast of Fujian. Each guard station has 5,600 people. They are all fully recruited. No matter who comes to check, these are soldiers from the guard station. On the surface, they have nothing to do with Wang Xuan.
No, of course, in fact, including the commanders of the five guard posts and below, they are all from Wang Xuan, so the imperial court’s orders are definitely not easy to implement!”
"Furthermore, the fact that Wang Xuan dared to do so in such a big way shows that he has no intention of rebellion. This action is just to show his strength to the Dukes of the imperial court. As long as the imperial court does not want to force Fujian to rebel, then Wang Xuan cannot be touched.
Xuan, but who in the court dares to bear the grave sin of forcing a province to rebel!"
Master didn't want to tell Xu Yangqiu about this matter before. After all, it is better to do less than to do more, and to save one from doing less is better. Just pretend not to know, but I didn't expect that Wang Xuan would be dissatisfied for some unknown reason today.
He was also afraid that Xu Yangqiu would not understand the seriousness and would harm himself again, so he had to explain the pros and cons to him clearly.
Xu Yangqiu's eyes were about to pop out of their sockets, but there was no sparkle in them. The master couldn't help but sigh when he looked at it. This was a bloody misfortune for eight lifetimes. Why did he come to be an official in such a dragon's den and a tiger's den?
He has to come here to suffer the consequences!
However, this was not done when he was appointed as the prefect in the court!
This happened just ten days ago. According to the distance, it happened when they had just entered Fujian. Even if they knew the news at that time, they would regret it!
All I can say is that I am very unlucky.
After a long time, Xu Yangqiu came back to his senses and looked at the master with a pale face. What should we do now?
"There is no other way. We can only stay here for a while. If possible, we will be transferred from here as soon as possible. This Fujian..." The master shook his head and did not continue.
Xu Yangqiu also understood what the master meant. In this poor place of Fujian, where the mountains are high and the emperor is far away, such a behemoth has emerged. If it were replaced by Jiangnan, the forces of all parties are complicated and there are countless people with energy. It is impossible for anyone to develop like this.
of.
Once a certain family exceeds a certain limit, it will attract everyone to attack. Yan Song is the best example. Even if it was prosperous for a while, it was eventually destroyed by the Xu family and other families.
Now that the matter has reached this point, neither of them can do anything. The master can only rub his face, put on a smile again, stick his head out of the car and shout to the yamen: "Squad leader, let's go to the shipyard, so as not to
