After interpenetrating with Lord Hou, he became addicted to house fighting

When he returned to his room, Chu Yin couldn't help but rub his eyebrows.

After washing three days, Mrs. Shi and Mrs. Huang said goodbye and went back.

Because Xue Yingying was still in confinement, Chu Yin temporarily took over the charge of Zhongfu. She also had to manage her own pharmacy and had no time to spare every day.

Zi Su came up to help her change her clothes and reported back: "Just now, sister Ling Dong brought a stack of letters and put them in the study. They said they were from the South China Sea."

Chu Yin couldn't help but have a smile on his lips. This must be the arrival of Rong An's letter.

I don't know what the situation is like over there.

Rong An, who was missed by Chu Yin, was naturally busy stabilizing the coast.

Most of the pirates have been wiped out, and only scattered pirates still occasionally operate at sea, but they are no longer a phenomenon.

It is worth mentioning that the water bandits who ambushed Chu Yin and the others on the road were determined to be in collusion with the pirates. Qi Jun's people investigated the truth and implicated many local officials and squires.

Due to the large number of people involved, he had to go there in person.

Zhong Shilang wasn't supposed to go, but he went along on the pretext that he wanted to check out the local people's sentiments.

But he didn't expect that going there would be like entering a dragon's pond and a tiger's den.

The upper limit of the number of officers and soldiers that Qi Jun can mobilize is [-]. He cannot take away all of these [-]. He now holds the title of "Inspector of the South China Sea", and the inspector's Yamen must also retain people.

People were also needed to ensure the normal operation of government affairs around the station, so the number of people he actually took away was less than [-].

Zhong Shilang also underestimated the clan power in Nanhai and tried to persuade Qi Jun to "pacify" the people in his own way.

Qi Jun looked at him steadily for a while, then suddenly smiled, "Does Mr. Zhong insist on doing this?"

"How can we show the power of God otherwise?" Zhong Shilang said confidently, "If Zuo Xiang uses such gentle methods, he may still not make any progress in 100 years! His Royal Highness is worried that the South China Sea will not be pacified, so he sent his subordinates here.

"Although the lower official is temporarily in charge of farming, he is also very familiar with local affairs."

Qi Jun sighed helplessly, "I am indeed old and do not have the vigor of a young man. Since Mr. Zhong insists, then please give me some advice."

Mr. Zhong stepped out proudly.

As a result, within a quarter of an hour, he came back with a bruised nose and swollen face, his head covered with rotten vegetables, leaves, rotten eggs, and a disgraced face. One of his shoes even ran away.

If Qi Jun hadn't sent officers and soldiers to protect him, I'm afraid he wouldn't have come back alive!

"Prime Minister!" Zhong Shilang was so ashamed, "I'm a lower official..."

"Stop talking, Mr. Zhong, let's take a shower and change clothes first," Qi Jun waved his hand, "Now that we are surrounded, we may have difficulty moving forward for the time being.

"The only way out is to ask the champion for help. I wonder what Mr. Zhong thinks?"

Zhong Shilang's face was full of confusion, "Master Prime Minister, I don't understand, how can the local people not be afraid of the power of God?"

"It's just because the sky is high and the emperor is far away," Qi Jun sighed, "Dark clouds have been covering the sun for a long time, so I thought I could replace the sky.

"What's more, what we want to attack is the basis of their survival. As the saying goes, 'Destroying a person's wealth is like killing his parents', so they will naturally rise up to resist."

Zhong Shilang bowed deeply and said, "This official is short-sighted. Please ask the Prime Minister to give you some advice in the future."

"We are all colleagues," Qi Jun smiled warmly, "We learn from each other. What does Mr. Zhong think about asking the champion for help?"

"Everything is at the discretion of the prime minister," said Zhong Shilang, who was in a state of embarrassment and without any energy at all, "I have no objections to this."
