Chapter 748 Father-in-law, there is a woman who wants to see you

I was surprised to find that the leader of the league was over and the squad leader gave me a reward of 1,000 yuan for this book. I was surprised by surprise. Thank you, I spent money.

…………….

From Meihualing, Eunuch Wei was in a bad mood.

Since rebirth, it has never been as heavy as it is today.

As we passed, we could no longer hear the laughter and joy of the father-in-law in the sedan chair, which made everyone wonder why the father-in-law was so worried.

Could it be that there is an order in Beijing?

The people who are both honored and disgraced by Eunuch Wei. If Your Majesty’s decree is not good for Eunuch Wei, the consequences of them can be imagined. Therefore, they are all nervous.

This made the entire ceremonial guard team feel a little heavier invisibly.

When he arrived outside Yangzhou City, Zheng Duo whispered outside the sedan chair that Eunuch Wei, who had no sound in the sedan chair, was here.

"Have you arrived?"

Eunuch Wei lifted the curtain of the sedan chair, and the Yangzhou city walls were clearly visible in his sight.

At this time, Yangzhou divided into two cities, new and old.

During the Jiajing period, due to the large population, the old city could not accommodate it at all. Hundreds of thousands of residents lived by the canal outside the city, which seriously affected the canal and mixed fish and dragons. At that time, Japanese pirates invaded the river. Therefore, Yangzhou officials decided to build a new city, one to protect the country and the other to completely solve the disadvantage of the small city in Yangzhou.

The new city is connected to the old city. After the renovation, the two cities are the main city. Until now, it is the busiest place on the canal except for Linqing, and it has not flourished to the south of the Yangtze River and Jiangsu and Hangzhou.

Eunuch Wei took away his mood, took out his waist sign, and prepared to let Zheng Duo go to discuss the settlement of the post station with Yangzhou officials, but officials in the city came to support Eunuch Wei and his party at the order of the prefect.

"He is a good at doing business."

Eunuch Wei put his waist card on his knees and had a good impression of the Yangzhou prefect Yu Zhengxue.

As both the prefect, Yu Zhengxue was better than Eunuch Wei’s fellow villager and the prefect of Zhenjiang, Wang Yinglin, who was good at being a human being.

Whether it is the inner and outer courts, they are all within the same system, how can they stay closed?

It would be better if it wasn't compared. When it was compared, Eunuch Wei would be angry. Wang Yinglin was too bad. If he didn't give him face, he wouldn't give face to the emperor. He would have to find his anger to relieve the depression in his heart when he turned around.

In fact, Yu Zhengxue is also known as a straight minister, but he is more sleek and sophisticated than Wang Yinglin. He is very clear that this inner minister Wei is unscrupulously walking around the country and committing all kinds of evil deeds, but the Nandu side does not comment. This shows that the water behind Wei must be very deep.

Therefore, Yangzhou Prefecture did not need to be a bird that stood out, so even though he knew that the eunuch Wei was doing something wrong in Gaoyou, killing wealthy families, and forcing the garrison, he was even more uneasy when he came to Yangzhou Prefecture City. However, Yu Zhengxue did not learn to close the door of Zhenjiang and refused to accept it. Instead, he ordered to provide the eunuch Wei's entourage as usual.

This is what smart people do. Whether it is the officialdom or the people, it is always good to say that it is not a good thing to hit people with smiles.

Yu Zhengxue made such arrangements, that is, he would not give Eunuch Wei the opportunity to pick up bad things, nor would he give Eunuch Wei the opportunity to come. As long as there was no accident in his Yangzhou city, he could explain it to him.

As for the matters in Gaoyou, Lord Yu has no time to deal with it now. It is also the matter of the Huai'an Governor's Office and the Ministry of War. What does it have to do with him?

Eunuch Wei really wanted to enter the city to see what the Slim West Lake and the Twenty-Four Bridges scenery were all over, but because of the Meihualing, I was in a heavy mood and the mood of traveling around the mountains and rivers was gone. When I saw this, Yangzhou Prefecture was also good at doing things, so I gave me some face. I didn’t refute my “good intention” and ordered me to follow the arrangements.

The residence Yu Zhengxue arranged for Eunuch Wei was not an inn, but a three-story building near the canal, called Zuiyuan Tower. This building was called Yangzhou Prefecture to clear it, and it would be better to use it to accommodate Eunuch Wei with his soldiers.

Seeing that the eunuch Wei was not dissatisfied with the arrangements of the prefect, the officials in the city who came to arrange them all breathed a sigh of relief. They were really afraid that eunuch Wei would be extremely domineering and insisted on leading troops into the city. If that happens, the people will be in trouble and the rich will suffer even more.

Nowadays, the reputation of Wei's eunuch greedy for money and profit has spread all over the country, and the people are fine. The rich people's eyes twitch when they hear the three words Wei eunuch.

You should know that in the eyes of eunuchs from all over the world who have attacked Beijing, the word "money" is the original sin.

In the city of Yangzhou, the wealthy businessmen are the best in Jiangbei. If we really want Eunuch Wei, the hungry wolf, to enter the city, would that be great?

After arriving at Zuiyuan Tower, Eunuch Wei sent an order to let the officers and soldiers settle down, and went up to the top of Zuiyuan Tower to enjoy the scenery of the canal.

Not long after, the door came down to report that a businessman named Zhao Shengjie came to visit Eunuch Wei.

Eunuch Wei was brought here by someone. As soon as he saw Eunuch Wei, Zhao Shengjie offered some "heart" and then he became the boss to introduce the scenery in front of him.

"Please look at it, it is the small Qinhuai River in the city. There are five bridges including Xiaoshi Bridge, Yingen Bridge, Kaiming Bridge, Tongsi Bridge, Taiping Bridge, etc. The left side of the river is the old city, and the right side of the river is the new city..."

Following Zhao Shengjie's gesture, Eunuch Wei saw a rush of people in the distance, and the streets and small markets were filled with merchants and people.

Eunuch Wei sighed: "There are so many people in this Yangzhou city."

Zhao Shengjie smiled and said, "Yes, Yangzhou has a large population. To put it simply, as long as it is a big market, it will be difficult to move. You can't help but push it hard."

"There are many people, and it is not a good thing."

Eunuch Wei’s inexplicable words made Zhao Shengjie a little confused. Why is there a lot of people not a good thing?

Eunuch Wei did not explain to the Yangzhou boss, and chuckled, his eyes gathered on the market in the distance.

If the Qing soldiers had not arrived, the 800,000 people in Yangzhou should have lived well. During the festival, they would be crowded with people at the market as they are now, but they would be very happy.

If the Qing soldiers had not arrived, hundreds of thousands of fellow villagers in the city could drink some wine and listen to operas every few days, watch flowers in spring and insects in autumn, and their parents and family gather together to have fun.

If the Qing army had not arrived, the prosperous Yangzhou cityscape would have become an eternal fixed pattern in history like the Qingming Festival.

Now, there is no if.

Nurhaci was still busy conquering Korqin and Ye He, but I don’t know how far this black-faced old man has expanded.

Now that Shi Ying is watching "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", he should have been familiar with him, but he doesn't know if he has a good relationship with his father. If not, did he ever think about not being Li Jiancheng and being Li Shimin?

As for the slut, Brother Ye Hedong, he must have hooked up with a good Jurchen guy on his back, and he must have pulled Tungus's black-faced old man off.

Well, that cheap teacher Yang Hao is now thinking that he has taken action against Tuman, and it is expected that there will be good news in the next two months.

Unfortunately, this cheap teacher will definitely not deal with Jianzhou as the cheap students think. The teacher will immediately take action against Jianzhou as the cheap students think. And this teacher is less than half a year away from Liaofu.

Eunuch Wei shook his head. Even if he had the intention to do things thousands of miles away, he would be beyond his reach.

Now, let’s do his maritime affairs and make money.

When Eunuch Wei was about to ask about Zhao Shengjie's "foreign merchants" here in Jiangnan, Zhao Shengjie hesitated and then told Eunuch Wei something.

"Zhao's daughter-in-law?...what did she come to us for?"
