Chapter 123 etc.

A few days have passed since Mrs. Su knelt at the door, the turmoil in Yangzhou City has gradually subsided, and the world has resumed its usual bustle. Lu Weimang and Xiao Qiu walked in Yangzhou City with a team of black armored guards. The two months that passed were like a dream. After waking up from the dream, Yangzhou City was still as prosperous as ever.

"Xiaoqiu, if you have anything you want to buy, just tell me, Miss, I am in a good mood today, and I have brought enough money to treat guests to checkout."

Xiaoqiu was still as dull-faced as ever, but there was a smile in his eyes, "Miss, please, I will not be polite at that moment."

After visiting a few shops, Lu Weimang took Xiaoqiu into the restaurant for dinner again, and didn't go into the private room, just waited in the lobby and listened to gossip.

"Brother Zhou, do you feel that this Yangzhou wharf seems to be a little bigger than in the first half of the year? Today my cargo ship docked, and it didn't take long to enter the port. In the past, there was no half-day dispatch, so how could it come in. "

After hearing that, Brother Zhou glanced around and saw that no one was paying attention, so he approached the old man and said in a low voice, "Where is the wharf expanded? Such a project can't be completed in a day or two. We This pier has just changed its supervisor. Huo Hou knows, right? He is in charge of government affairs in Yangzhou City recently, how can the people below be careless?"

"Hey, I heard that Huohou went to Jiangnan a few days ago. I can't imagine that he has taken root in Yangzhou. How long will this Huohou stay in Yangzhou City? It stands to reason that one term of government starts from three years. , but this is a good day in Yangzhou City!"

"Where is this talking? How could Huohou be the chief official in our small city? Isn't that overkill? Huohou's identity, if it is released to the outside world, is a big official in the frontier, and he will not be trapped in a small city."

"That's right, hey, brother Zhou, don't let me guess with a hammer here and a stick here, what's going on, tell me about it! Brother just came from Yizhou, his eyes are darkened what!"

Only then did Brother Zhou hold back his temper, and said eloquently, "At that time in the middle of the year, Huo Hou stopped in Yangzhou, closed his door and closed his door, and made a secret investigation. Huang Guihua came to this Yangzhou city that day. Can you not panic, and Huo Hou's posture, he does not participate in banquets, does not go out to play, he looks like he stays and does not leave, so some people can't sit still, let the officials and wives take care of Lu who went south with Huo Hou Master Weimang Lu."

"Master Lu, do you know?"

"Then can I not know? Didn't I just say that? I just came from Yizhou. In fact, I came back from the Qionglai Pass. Lu Weimang Lu assisted Huo Hou to open the Qionglai Pass. Her name, brother is simply It's like thunder!"

"Hey, come from Qionglai, did that brother get rich this trip?!"

"Hey, Xiaoyi. I'm a small business. It's far from those big and time-honored businesses! It's just a little small."

The smile on this man's face was about to bloom into a flower, and anyone with a discerning eye knew that he must have gained a lot from this trip.

When Brother Zhou saw this, he also moved his mind, and his tone was much more eager than the appearance of showing off just now, "I heard that Mr. Lu Weimang is not yet young, and has a tender face and a sweet mouth. After seeing these officials and wives once, He regarded her as a springboard to get close to Huo Hou. Later, someone came forward and taught to seduce Mr. Lu to the flower banquet. I heard that there was a wife of the judge at the flower banquet, singing, beating, and showing up to scare him. Mr. Lu. Who is Mr. Lu? You won’t be fooled by these women’s babbling, and then you get angry and send all those women to the women’s prison. Do you know what the charges are? Hey, I've lost my dignity for several lifetimes!"

Zhou fanned his face with his palm, as if he hated iron for nothing, as if he had lost face.

The merchant nodded, "Hey, I don't know Master Lu's methods. It's normal for them to look down on people. Those women, every day, look up at the square sky, thinking that their men are the whole world. But there is such a thing. I was full of intrigue and calculation, thinking that I had a lot of means. How do I know Master Lu's mind and ability? Let's talk about Qionglai. Said, almost didn't break on the road. Later, when I arrived in Qionglai, I thought it was the same as other places, and I had to find a relationship. Bye bye local snakes. How do I know? Does brother Zhou of the caravan know? Fifty taels of money per person, no one can deceive , openly lined up to get a number, and took us to Muya Grassland when it was our turn. Hey, I thought brother’s capital was not enough in Qionglai, so I couldn’t open it. Who knows, I turned over in one trip. Thank you Master Lu and Huo Hou for the iron rules left behind. Who would not be grateful to these two merchants who have been to Qionglai? That is, Yangzhou is rich and far away from Yizhou. No one can appreciate the prosperity and order of Qionglai with their own eyes, so they will underestimate it. Master Lu."

What the businessman said was emotional and a little angry, and that person in Zhou's eyes were sharper and more attentive, "Brother, drink some water to calm down, I haven't finished talking yet. Those people were put together by Mr. Lu and put down After being imprisoned, Huo Hou took this as a breakthrough, and unexpectedly discovered that many families at the flower banquet were secretly connected. Huo Hou searched for it, and heard that there were secret letters from the barbarians in the northern Xinjiang and contacts from the southern barbarians in the East China Sea. trace."

When Zhou said this, his voice was suppressed, and the merchant was taken aback, "How dare they?"

"Who says it's not? I heard that in the city of Yangzhou, there was an adversary of His Majesty when he was fighting the world. He kept his name incognito, relying on the height of the sky and the emperor's distance. His Majesty didn't spare a lot of money to bribe Yangzhou City. Wanting to be an unattended local emperor on the border of the south of the Yangtze River. Huo Hou found their clues in the capital, and followed them down. After all, the crime of treason and rebellion has such a small shadow, and he can't let it go. No, after Huo Hou checked the facts, all those who participated were imprisoned, and those who dared to resist were killed on the spot. During those few nights in Yangzhou City, the smell of iron permeated the whole city!"

Listening to this man's discussion in a low voice, Lu Weimang and Xiao Qiu looked at each other. There have been more than ten versions of this incident among the common people, and the two of them are not surprised.The serious crime of treason is death if you touch it, but His Majesty is kind and doesn't want to involve too much and make Jiangnan unstable, so he ordered Huo Jing to deal with it in a low-key manner and only arrest the main culprit. Therefore, Huo Jing did not deal with it publicly.Otherwise, I'm afraid Yangzhou City will be panic-stricken. Everyone is in the same city, and there is always some connection between the crooked and crooked people. The crime of treason, but if it is made public, it may scare a lot of people to death.

It was also because of Huo Jing's low-key handling that Yangzhou City was able to recover so quickly.

"Is there anyone else who dares to resist Huo Hou?"

The merchant was surprised.

Not to mention the reputation of Huo Hou Sheng Beijiang, even if Huo Hou represents the giant of the imperial court, it makes people unable to resist.

"Hey, I know that catching is death, so I just want to give it a go. However, they were all besieged by Huo Hou in advance, and there was not much movement. Even the blood stains were washed away overnight by the guards. Only a few nearby households People only heard about it for a while, and it spread. If you want to say that Huohou is really worthy of Nanuoda's reputation, he is so experienced and considerate, and he keeps things in front of him. At the most night of that night, four or five The family worked together and tried to rush out of the city gate, but Huo Hou made a plan and made dumplings in advance!"

Zhou let out a breath, but the merchant nodded instead, "It should be so, Huohou's name is not blown out, it was made step by step."

This merchant has won the power of Qionglai, and now he seems to be Huo Jing and Lu Weimang's brainless bragging, and his ability to speak is not like ordinary people, as if he can predict everything in advance, and everything can be settled. Immortal.

That Zhou did not refute, but poured wine to the merchants attentively, "The chief officials of Yangzhou City were arrested by Huo Hou. Now Huo Hou is temporarily in charge of the government affairs of Yangzhou City. Brothers respect Huo Hou and Mr. Lu so much, so let's do it later." Stay in Yangzhou City for a while, you can’t say when, you can meet on the street and have a face-to-face meeting! Brother, I will do my best as a landlord and entertain you for a few days. When the goods are all gone, I just need to go to Qionglai next time Brothers will be grateful when they are brought along!"

When it came to business, the merchant became more reserved, "It's easy to say, I'm going to stay in Yangzhou City for a while, and I will meet Huo Hou and Mr. Lu face to face. We, small businessmen who are doing small things, don't dare to think about it. When will we see the two of you?" The back view, I am happy enough in my heart."

Just like a little fanboy.

...

Lu Weimang and Xiaoqiu secretly laughed at the side, and after a simple meal, they returned to Yuyuan.

In the carriage back to Yuyuan, Xiao Qiu suddenly said, "Miss is a human being, which is enviable. If a woman can be like a lady, she will not live in vain."

Lu Weimang chuckled, "My original intention was to do some practical things, but now I can make people read well, and I feel happy in my heart."

When the two returned to the mansion, Huo Jing had already returned to Yuyuan from the Yamen. At this time, seeing Lu Weimang came back from shopping, he said to Lu Weimang, "We will go back when the transferred county guard and others are in place."

"Well," Lu Weimang nodded, "No hurry, I'm not in a hurry to do something."

Lu Weimang held back a smile in his heart, since she said last time that she wanted to return to Beijing as soon as possible, Huo Jing has accelerated the progress of her actions, and secretly explained to her several times.These made Lu Weimang feel the secret sweetness in his heart.

She doesn't care about other people's compromises and concerns after she emphasizes it. She just feels sweet and moved by the care and attention she keeps in her heart with a casual word or a small daily matter.

...

The weather is getting cooler and the air is dry. Unknowingly, the summer has passed and autumn has begun.

"It's boring to be bored in the mansion all the time, isn't it? Let's go outside the city tomorrow. I heard that the red leaves on the South Mountain outside the city are very early. Let's go and see together."

After dinner that day, the two of them took a walk in the mansion to digest food, Huo Jing suddenly said.

Lu Weimang was puzzled, "You have several positions in the Yamen, do you have time to go out? Let's wait until the successor comes."

Huo Jing didn't take it seriously, "The affairs of the yamen have been straightened out, and being an official is not about taking everything on yourself, choosing someone to use, knowing someone and making good use of them is more important than anything else."

After hearing this, Lu Weimang raised his eyebrows. Is this a secret show off?But she was really moved. It's okay to stay in the mansion during the hot summer days. However, the weather is cooling down now, and the autumn air is refreshing. If you don't go out for a while, you will be sorry for the lakes and mountains in the south of the Yangtze River.

"Well, let's go around tomorrow."

　Thank you for the dreamy feeling, the summer morning light monthly ticket.
