Chapter 21 Entering Shutian City

Stationed in Shutian City in No.20

Stationed in Shutian City in No.20

Zhu Daguan subdued all the guards and began to hurry on his way.Yugege's four-horse cart was very softly paved, Zhu Tianxiang leaned in the cart and ate snacks, not to mention how comfortable it was.Yugege turned her mouth up and didn't speak, and looked out of the car angrily.The fourth prince, Xuan Zhu, cursed all the way in his heart, if he became the emperor now, let alone the nine clans of Zhu Tianjiang, I am afraid that the eighteen clans would not be enough.

The sky was getting dark, and it seemed that we were about to arrive at the first halfway station.At this time, a fast horse from behind caught up.

"Heavenly~ Damn it, what are you doing running so fast?"

The man on horseback broke into the official team and went straight to the carriage.The official from the household department was about to stop them, but when they saw the people who were sitting immediately, they all smiled and moved out of the way.It wasn't someone else who came, but Guo Ying, the daughter of the Guo family.When these guys set off from the Guo Mansion, they all met Miss Guo.

When Yugege heard the voice, she looked happy, "It's sister Guo Ying."

"Of course it's her. Our trip is an official mission. According to the regulations, we can't bring maids and maids with us. Only this high official is thinking about finding a companion for you." Zhu Tianjiang said, pulling up the curtain to make the coachman stop.

Guo Ying ran all the way, tired and out of breath.Zhu Tianxiang had discussed with Guo Ying long ago. As soon as he left, he asked Guo Ying to leave a letter and chase him out secretly.Anyway, it's not the first time Guo Ying has sneaked away, this wild girl Guo Tianxin can't control it.With her accompanying Yugege, there is more or less a care.Even if Guo Tianxin knew, he probably could understand Zhu Tianxiang's difficulties.

"Sister Yinger, why are you here?" Yugege was both happy and worried.If Guo Ying travels with the official team, once word spread, it would be a violation of Dafeng's regulations.She is not even allowed to bring her servants with her, let alone Zhu Tianxiang with Guo Ying.

"Yugege, I'm here to accompany you." Guo Ying said, she hugged the fourth prince who was still in a daze, and said hello according to military etiquette.

"Yingzi, stop nagging, hurry up and get in the car, it's comfortable in the car." Zhu Tianxiang waved his hands with a hippie smile, making the car look like his family's.

"Bold! Zhu Tianjiang, do you want to lead to death when you come back, kid?" The fourth prince was trembling with anger, and he had never seen such a bold and reckless act in Dafeng Dynasty.It's okay to say a few offensive words secretly when no one is around, but there are forty official guards here, how can it be possible to shut everyone's mouths.

"Fourth, let's talk about it later. Now that I am the boss, I will take all the responsibilities."

Zhu Tianxiang didn't care about these messy laws of Dafeng, he brought Guo Ying here for a purpose, Zhu Tianxiang wanted to take this opportunity to let Guo Ying go to the brothel to avenge her arrest last time.Zhu Daguan didn't know that her father had already settled this enemy's family.

With Guo Ying in the car, Yugege talked more.After all, it was inconvenient for her and Zhu Tianxiang to be alone in the car, but now that there was an extra Guo Ying, Yu Gege felt more at ease.

When everyone came to the post station, the small officials nearby heard that the prince and Ge Ge were here, and they all came to present gifts.Zhu Daguan never refuses anyone who comes, he not only accepts gifts openly, but also shows embarrassment to others if there are too few presents.

The fourth prince's face was livid with anger, and he thought it was over, and the first time he was on an imperial mission, he let this kid ruin his reputation.This bastard has committed so many serious crimes just after leaving the capital, isn't he reconciled if he doesn't kill this prince?

Zhu Tianjiang didn't care whether the fourth prince was angry or not, he held a big banquet in the station, and drank all kinds of meat and vegetables with all the officials and guards under him.Otherwise, everyone will have a share of the greedy money.Daguan Zhu showed both kindness and prestige, and immediately won the support of everyone.No one is a fool, such a good 'adult', there is nowhere to look for with a lantern.The purpose of being an errand is to make a living, and you can get rewards for delicious food and drink, so no one cares about the law of Dafeng.

In the early morning of the next day, the antagonism of the palace and palace guards from yesterday was wiped out, and they all took the initiative to greet 'Lord Zhu'.They found that although this guy is hateful, he also has a cute side.

Along the way, Zhu Tianjiang spread his tongue, and there were bursts of melodious laughter in the car from time to time.On the third day, the fourth prince Xuanzhu finally couldn't bear it any longer, and also got into the cart.Fortunately, the space in the car is large enough to place a mahjong table.

In less than six days, Yugege was overwhelmed by Zhu Daguan's profound knowledge.The fourth prince was also induced by Zhu Tianjiang, completely let go of the prince's face, and said it was 'dirty', he was simply a gangster.

Not to mention the official messengers and guards, there is a lot of fish and meat every day, and there are rewards.Now if anyone in the team dares to say that Zhu Daguan is not a character, these guys can work together to strangle him to death.

Yugege was very thoughtful, the two guys kissed me secretly in the middle of the night, Yugege saw it several times, Yugege's face was red and her heart beat every time.But in front of the fourth prince, Yugege couldn't tell the truth, so she could only pretend that she didn't know the relationship between the two of them.

"Fourth brother, you have to be tough when you arrive in Shutian. We two brothers will sing the red face and the other bad face." There are still a few days before arriving at the destination, and Zhu Tianjiang started to arrange the business.

"Why should I sing red face?"

"The Governor of Shu Tianfu is a relative of your family, whoever sings if you don't." Zhu Tianjiang said with a blank look.

"Brother Tianxiang, what about me?" Yugege called out sweetly. In the past two days, he also learned to call him brother from Guo Ying.

"You and Yingzi will sit down and receive the red envelopes. It doesn't matter who they are, as long as you give it to you, you will accept it." Zhu Daguan didn't say that he was short of money, how could he support these brothers if he didn't accept gifts.It's useless to rely on official authority, only when you get benefits will others be willing to work for you.

When Yugege heard this, she said, "I won't do it. This will be taken to Uncle Huang's place, and even my father's reputation will be ruined."

Zhu Tianxiang said in his heart that your father doesn't care about his reputation, anyway, it's unnecessary to bring Yu Gege out, she can do whatever she likes.

Briefly speaking, Zhu Tianjiang came to Shu Tianfu this time, much faster than when he and Guo Ying returned to Beijing last time.After more than ten days of effort, he entered the territory of Shu Tianfu.Zhu Er and Zhu Si have already left the official team, and they need to make arrangements in advance.

Zhu Yi rode to the front of the car, "My lord, there are still five miles to enter Shu Tianfu." Zhu Yi reminded Zhu Tianjiang.On the road, he can do whatever he wants, but when he arrives in Shutian City, he can no longer ride in the same car with Gege.

Upon hearing this, the fourth prince quickly got out of the carriage.Zhu Tianjiang looked at Guo Ying and Yu Gege, "You two beauties, from now on, I'm going to pretend to be a wolf with a big tail, take care of yourselves."

"Brother Tianxiang, Yin Zhou Dazhong of Shu Tianfu is a relative of the state, and he is a generation older than my fourth brother and me. This person is very bossy, you have to be careful." Yugege warned cautiously.

"Isn't he the son of an uncle, can he still be older than the prince?"

Guo Ying hurriedly said, "The prince of the Dafeng Dynasty has no real power. Before he established a prince and received a reward, the prince's status was not high. The governor of Shu Tianfu is different. Even if the fourth prince is established as the crown prince, I am afraid that such a feudal official will be highly regarded."

Zhu Tianxiang knew that the fourth child had no real power, but he didn't expect it to be so inferior.The status of Shu Tian Fu Yin is equivalent to the top leader of the municipality in the previous life, so there is really no need to buy him the account of a prince without real power.

Zhu Tian got down from the carriage, straightened his clothes, and got back on his seldom-ridden horse.

"Zhu Yi, get the team ready to enter the city!" Zhu Tianjiang gave an order, holding the horse rope tightly with both hands.Fortunately, I have practiced a few times along the way, so I don't need to lie on the horse's back anymore.

Last time when he left the gate of Shu Tianfu, Zhu Tianjiang sneaked out in the name of a criminal.When I came here this time, I didn't expect to become a dignified traveler.

Although the number of people in a team is not large, the momentum is not weak.Zhu Tianjiang and the fourth prince walked in front of the team and came to the gate of the city.

"Fourth, why isn't there even a welcoming team?" Zhu Tianxiang looked at the city gate strangely, no different from usual.

"Cut! You are only an official, yet people still come to welcome you?" Xuan Zhu thought in his heart, what did this guy think of himself.

"Aren't there still you and Yugege?"

"So what, don't forget that our identity is your deputy." The fourth prince curled his lips. The uncle Guo knew the situation of the royal family clearly, so he would not care about him, the weakest prince.This time when Xuanzhu came out with Zhu Tianxiang, she just wanted to relax, and didn't dare to think that things could be done.

Zhu Tianxiang licked his lips. If he had known this, he would have found a way to trick Prince Jing out.Zhu Tianxiang was thinking about it when he saw a group of officials walking out of the city gate.

"Xiaguan Shu Tianfu Taxation Office judges Tang Qili, and welcomes the fourth prince and Yugege." An official came over and said with clasped fists.

When the fourth prince heard this, he looked at Zhu Tianjiang in embarrassment, and thought that Zhu Tianjiang was the messenger, but this guy didn't even mention it, which is too contemptuous.

"Tang Tong Judgment, there is no need to be too polite. My prince and Yugege are ordered by the emperor to follow Lord Zhu Tianxiang to supervise the tax collection. I hope that the tax collection can be sent to the capital as soon as possible." The fourth prince resumed his honor and humiliation. Shocked, said very calmly.

Zhu Tianxiang smiled secretly, he understood that this was trying to show him off.However, the general judgment of the tax office is also the leader of the tax officials, and it is better to come out to greet them than not to come alone.

Hearing what the fourth prince said, Tang Qili looked at Zhu Tianjiang, cupped his fists and said, "Master Zhu has worked hard all the way, I think you should settle down first, and the tax office will talk about something tomorrow."

"Hehe, Master Tang is quite right. Anyway, this matter is not in a hurry, let's wait and talk." Zhu Tianjiang said with a smile, not taking what happened just now at all.

Tang Qili snorted coldly in his heart, these brats here are simply bringing shame on themselves.In the past two days, Mr. Zhou was still worried about this matter, and arranged several countermeasures.Now it seems that everything is superfluous.

Tang Qili brought everyone to the official post, and after settling in, he didn't even say anything about cleaning up the dust, he found an excuse and slipped away.

"Fourth, did you see, these grandchildren are showing us faces." Zhu Tianxiang looked at the deserted gate of the official post, not to mention gift givers, not even a spectator.

"Tianxiang, come with me tomorrow to visit Zhou Dazhong in the government office. The dog legs below are all based on his face. As long as the Lord Fu Yin speaks up, they will never dare to do so." Xuan Zhu also said a little dissatisfied.

Guo Ying and Yugege glanced at each other, but neither of them spoke.Judging from the current situation, this trip was more complicated than they thought.If he really returns without success, I'm afraid those civil and military ministers in the capital will not spare Zhu Tianjiang lightly.Looking at Zhu Tianxiang's back, the two girls couldn't help but worry about him.

At night, Zhu Tianxiang stayed awake, thinking about how to deal with the opponent he was about to face.This is his first step in this life. Once he loses, the road ahead will be difficult.

As soon as the window slammed, Zhu Yifei rushed in. Scared, Zhu Tianxiang stretched out his hand and pulled out the golden pen.Zhu Tianjiang heaved a sigh of relief when he saw clearly that it was Zhu Yi.

"Why are you acting like a ghost? Knock on the door and you're done." Zhu Tianxiang glared.

"My lord, Zhu Er and Zhu Si are here." Zhu Yi said in a low voice.

"Oh? Let them in."

Zhu nodded and opened the door.Not only Zhu Er and Zhu Si who had entered the city ahead of schedule came in, but also a middle-aged man in his thirties.As soon as the three of them came in, Zhu Yi and Zhu Si flashed out of the room and stood guard carefully at the door.

"Pang Xiao, the Xuanwu guard at the sticky pole, see your lord." Seeing the ink ring Zhu Tianjiang was carrying, the middle-aged man hurriedly knelt down on one knee.

Hearing that it was the person at the sticky pole, Zhu Tianxiang couldn't help feeling a sense of intimacy.The other party claimed to be the Xuanwu Guard, so he should be a member of the Xuanwu Envoy.

"Brother Pang Da, don't be so polite, we are all family." Zhu Tianjiang quickly helped Pang Xiao up.

"My lord, Pang Xiao's public identity is written by the tax office." Zhu Er said in a low voice.

"Oh? That's great. I'm worried about how to read those ledgers." Zhu Tianjiang was overjoyed.

"My lord, you don't need to look at the account books of the tax office. They are all fake. Some of the accounts were made by villains." Pang Xiao said.

"Then, if I don't look at the account book, how do I know how much tax they collected? Could it be that there is a real account book?" Zhu Tianjiang was taken aback.

"My lord, I think that it is better to find the secret bank than to find the real account book. As long as you find the bank, you don't need to look at the account book at all. The previous batches of household officials were all exhausted by the accounts, and finally returned without success. My lord If it's for checking the accounts, I'm afraid I won't be able to leave within half a year." Pang Xiao said in a low voice.

Zhu Tianxiang thought about it, and felt that what Pang Xiao said was very reasonable.The emperor's order is time-limited, even if they find the real ledger, they will not be able to understand it without professionals.

"Zhu Er, you are from the Suzaku envoy. Shutian and Zhongdu, how many people are there in our sticky poles?" Suzaku envoy Mu Qi is in charge of information, and Zhu Tianjiang knows these things only they know.

"This~!" Zhu Er looked at Pang Xiao, and thought to himself that you are embarrassing me.There are strict rules at the sticky pole, even if he knew it, he would not dare to say it in front of other people.

Zhu Tianjiang saw what Zhu Er meant, and waved his hands, "Just say what you want, I'll take care of it. Wei Zhan is my uncle, you're afraid of shit."

When Pang Xiao heard this, he trembled in fright.The boss of the tall sticky pole turned out to be this guy's uncle.No wonder Qinglong Mojie was able to be brought into his hands.

Zhu Er became ruthless, since he followed Zhu Tianjiang, then take his words as the standard, "My lord, there are 68 people in total in Shutian and Zhongdu, Suzaku### and Xuanwuwei at the sticky pole."

Zhu Tianxiang nodded, Qinglongwei was protecting the emperor, it was impossible to come down.He had to make good use of these 68 people.

"Zhu Er, will they listen to my order?"

"Return to your lord, before you come, Lord Mu Qi has already ordered that as long as your lord needs it, you can use all the members."

"Okay! Immediately send the order down, activate all the power at the sticky pole, and find me the secret bank of the tax office."

After Zhu Tianjiang finished his orders, he secretly discussed some matters with Pang Xiao.By the time Pang Xiao left, it was already midnight.

Pang Xiao left the official post with the brim of his hat pressed down, looked around, and walked carefully to an alley.

Opposite the official post, several figures flickered out, "Follow that person, and don't let him run away. Immediately report to Mr. Zhou, Shu Tianfu has their inside line." In the darkness, a big man quietly ordered.

As soon as Zhu Tianjiang and the fourth prince arrived at Shutian Mansion, their every move was secretly monitored by people sent by Zhou Dazhong.Unexpectedly, a mysterious person came to the door on the first night.

Borrowing the darkness, four figures flashed towards the alley where Pang Xiao walked into.Another figure ran towards the Yamen of Shu Tianfu.

"Bless all readers, in the new year, great luck and good luck in everything. "
