Da Ming Tai Shi

Chapter 479

After Li Yanzong and Pu Wen left for a long time, Chen Jinghe still didn't get out of the shock for a long time.

He never thought that the officials in Dongguan would dare to do such a frenzied thing, and what shocked Chen Jinghe even more was Li Yanzong's words.

From the beginning to the end of this matter, Wu Shigao, who was the chief envoy of Guangdong, was completely aware of it and did not say anything, and even adopted a tacit attitude.

No, this is not the default, this is indulgence or even encouragement!

Chen Jinghe returned to Hou Ya in a daze, the first thing he thought of was to report the matter to Chen Yunfu in a letter!
For such a catastrophe, let your father decide to handle it.

Just when Chen Jinghe was writing halfway through writing, his wife Li Shu came in with a cup of hot tea.

Seeing her husband's face covered with sweat, Li Shu put down the teacup and expressed concern.

"what happened?"

"There is a big disaster in Dongguan." Facing his daughter-in-law, Chen Jinghe did not hide anything, and truthfully told what happened right now, which also stunned Li Shu.

[-]% of the people in Dongguan County actually grow hibiscus privately?
Don't they know that this is the great crime of beheading!
"The matter here is a great disaster, and it must be reported to the father as soon as possible, and the father will decide to deal with it."

Chen Jinghe buried his head and continued to write the letter, but suddenly heard Li Shu say no.

Can't?

At the moment, Chen Jinghe raised his head full of confusion: "How can such a big event not be reported to the king?"

Li Shu sat down and said, "People in Dongguan County are planting hibiscus flowers under the indulgence of the government. Doesn't the Guangzhou Jinyiwei Siya know about such a big event?"

A rhetorical question made Chen Jinghe immediately stunned.

Jin Yiwei claims to be all-pervasive, so it is unreasonable and stupid to turn a blind eye to such a big thing.

"Jinyiwei should be aware of this matter. It is impossible for the father to know nothing about it." Li Shu analyzed for Chen Jinghe: "If the father does not know, it means that the Guangzhou Jinyiwei Division has been pulled into the water, or the father already knew about it, but he didn't deal with it, and left the matter to you, husband."

"pass it to me?"

Chen Jinghe pointed to his nose and smiled wryly: "Don't you want to say that this is the test my father left for me?"

Seeing Li Shu nodding, Chen Jinghe said in a shy voice, "You think too highly of me, how can I handle such a big matter, and I am not the supreme power of my father, who has life and death."

"Husband, if you are not the son of the father, the prince, or just an ordinary Dongguan county magistrate, how should you deal with this matter?"

Li Shu asked back: "Li Yanzong dared to tell you such a big matter frankly, what kind of heart did he have?"

"Yeah." Chen Jinghe calmed down a little bit, and also smelled something different: "Everyone knows that this is a crime of beheading, but Li Yanzong told himself like it's commonplace, what does he want to do?"

"Is it possible that he knows my identity?"

"Probably not. If Li Yanzong knew the identity of your husband, he would never dare to say it. Moreover, when he first arrived, he didn't stop other colleagues from getting close to you."

Li Shu then analyzed a few words, but she was still uncertain, so she said: "Before coming here, didn't Yang Shiqi visit you, Mr. Shiqi, but Mr. Shiqi said that Guangdong is the most complicated province in our Ming Dynasty. Think, there should be a deep meaning to this.”

Chen Jinghe couldn't sit still, he got up and walked back and forth in the study with his hands behind his back, his brows were furrowed.

"I came here to serve as the county magistrate incognito. As soon as I took office, I encountered such a difficult thing. If the father knew it in his heart, then let me come here because he wanted to take the school exam. If so, I will try Give it a try."

Forget about your identity as the prince, and just enter the game as an ordinary county magistrate?

"Shu'er, if your husband is only Chen Jing, a county magistrate who has just arrived, what should you do after knowing this?"

"Either turn a blind eye to the same people, or write a letter and report the matter here to the Guangzhou prefect's yamen."

Chen Jinghe nodded, no longer hesitated at the moment, took out a blank letter paper again, swiped the brush, and wrote in a short time.

After drying the ink, Chen Jinghe handed the letter to Li Shu.

"For my husband to see?"

Li Shu is worthy of being the granddaughter of Li Shanchang. After being an eunuch, she has been fascinated by politics since she was a child. She not only understands it, but also polishes it for Chen Jinghe.

"Father said that you are a virtuous wife, and it is true."

Chen Jinghe sighed with emotion, then went out to call for a small official and handed over the letter.

In the middle of the night, a fast horse galloped out of the post station outside Dongguan County.

At the same time, a snow-white carrier pigeon also flew into the county from the Dongguan station.

"This Chen Jing, sure enough, reported this matter to the Guangzhou government office."

Li Yanzong finished reading Fei Ge's letter at home, and cheerfully burned it, saying that Ge He in front of him said with a smile: "It seems that this incident has scared our young county lord quite a bit."

Ge He nodded in agreement frequently, and then said in confusion: "The letter said that this Chen Jing only reported to the Guangzhou government office. Isn't he a member of the Chen family? Why didn't you tell the family about such a big matter?"

"Confused." Li Yanzong scolded with a smile: "He just wants to tell his family about such a big matter, and he will send someone close to him to deliver it in person. How dare he pretend to be a post."

Ge He dared to say yes.

"If the Chen family finds out about this, they have to transfer Chen Jing away from Dongguan as soon as possible. This is an act of protection." Li Yanzong said confidently, "But it's easy to come, but difficult to leave."

"Chen Jing submitted a letter to the newspaper, which sounded the death knell of his Chen family."

Ge He nodded approvingly: "How many families in Guangdong, even including the governor's office and the governor's office, all share their food from the hibiscus flower export trade. Chen Jing wants to care about this matter, and he won't survive three months. Even with that, the old man in Fantai will also suspect whether this is something that the Chen family picked behind the scenes."

"Chen Xiren was promoted in Nanjing, and he still thought that the Chen family was the only one in Guangdong. In the past few years, he has already attracted people's envy."

Li Yanzong snorted coldly: "Doesn't the Chen family know the truth of not worrying about the widow and the loneliness?"

That day in the restaurant, Li Shuhong's secretary met Li Yanzong, and what he instructed was today's matter.

Let Chen Jinghe know that hibiscus is privately planted in Dongguan!
After all, who made Chen Jinghe belong to the 'Chen family'?

There are only two roads in front of Chen Jinghe.

Either work together with them, in this case, it is equivalent to dragging the Chen family into trouble.

Otherwise, as Chen Jinghe reported it now, at that time, officials at both levels of the Guangdong provincial government would have attacked the Chen family.

It's a very simple move to kill with a knife, it's not complicated at all.

"The good situation of Guangdong's economic development is hard-won, and it must be stabilized."

Before the incident happened overnight, Fang Jian, the new Guangzhou prefect who had been reported by Chen Jinghe, found Wu Shigao, and the latter said the above sentence.

And a meaningful explanation.

"I will find time tomorrow to have a good talk with Chen Jiading."
