Chapter seven hundred and sixty six assassination

At the wharf in Nanjing, the prison car parked here was empty, and no prisoners were seen among them. Yesterday, these prisoners were escorted to Yizhou, and the large sailboats in the South Ocean embarked on the road of exile. However, they should be glad that Chu Yun did not send them to the farther Oceania...

However, the number of soldiers patrolling the Nanjing City Wharf has not decreased, but has increased, because the military leader Chu Yun, who is stranded in Jiangnan, led a group of senior officials to leave Nanjing City today.

Outside the Zhongshan Palace where Chu Yun temporarily lived, a group of officials from the Jianghuai Provincial Administration who came to see him off were gathered. The head of the Jianghuai Provincial Civil Affairs Office Zhang Yandeng. Most of these officials expressed relaxed expressions. They also knew about the "assassination case". They thought that Chu Yun was to shock the cliques. As long as he was obedient, it would not be Chu Yun's turn to cause trouble for himself. He saw Chu Yun leaving Jiangnan, so he felt much more at ease even if he was not concerned about him.

"I heard that Qian Qianyi and others were going to be sent to the deserted island of Nanyang thousands of miles away to dig oil. The people living there were people from indigenous tribes. I wonder if they could come back alive."

"Stop talking about them, twenty years, even you and I don't know if I can live until that time."

"Bah, you won't live that time."

While the officials of the Jianghuai Administration Office were waiting to bid farewell to Chu Yun, they privately discussed those who had been exiled.

"The military commander has an order, and it is now office hours. Except for Lord Zhang Yandeng and several other adults, the rest of the people went back to the government office to handle government affairs, and there was no need to wait outside the government." Yu Cheng came out and said.

"This..." The officials of the Jianghuai Administration looked at each other.

"You go back first." Zhang Yandeng understood Chu Yun's character a little. This new ruler seemed to dislike these pomp, and even his personal guards didn't bring much.

If Nelson of the Admiralty Department had not insisted on sending troops to patrol the dock, maybe Chu Yun would take the senior executives to the Victory Slogan quietly without saying hello and then leave.

The officials of the Jianghuai Administration had to leave in groups, and the periphery of the Zhongshan Palace was empty.

Zhang Yandeng and the prosecutor, general, law enforcement officer and other senior officials of the Jianghuai Administration Department waited for a while outside the royal palace, and Chu Yun brought Ella, Yu Cheng, Zhao Youguang and other senior officials of the Jiuzhou Army out. Xiao Xiuer, Goya, Liu Rushi, Chen Yuanyuan and other women who had no positions in the Jiuzhou Army were behind, and they just went to the capital.

"Old Zhang, you and you don't have to wait early. I just want to chat with you for a few words before leaving." Chu Yun was shocked when he learned that the Jianghuai Administration Secretary mobilized to come to see him off.

"The military leader came to the Jianghuai River to inspect. If we Jianghuai implement the new policy, we would like to ask the military leader to attack more." Zhang Yandeng said.

"In addition to continuing to implement the new policy, the admission assessment of the Academy of Sciences in October this year is important, not only Nanjing, Guangzhou, Xiangyang, Chengdu, Beijing, Xi'an and other places are also held at the same time. However, the two provinces of Jianghuai, Jiangsu and Zhejiang have the most scholars, and the competition is the most fierce. I don't want to see any mistakes or bribery of examiners. At that time, I will send people from the Supervision Department, Intelligence Department, and the Ministry of Personnel to supervise. If someone dares to be corrupt, I will send him to the primitive tribe in the Nanyang Rainforest to be a slave to the indigenous people." Chu Yun said.

"The old minister must tell..." Zhang Yandeng's great Khan, this punishment seemed much more serious than exile and dig oil.

"What can a thermal power plant achieve power supply?" Chu Yun asked the official in charge of power construction in the JAC Administration Office.

This official was trained and sent to the Jianghuai Administration Commissioner from the Academy of Sciences to take office. Letting Ming Dynasty officials who had no concept of electrical science take charge of the project may make them confused.

"If it is only to provide electricity to the main streets of the city, the current thermal power plants provide enough power. It mainly takes time to lay the lines and prepare enough coal. It is expected that Nanjing City, Suzhou City and Hangzhou City will be the first to open electricity next year," the official said.

It will take nearly a year to power on, and the railway from Nanjing to Suzhou will take two years to open to traffic. Chu Yun found that the infrastructure was too long, and it was just electricity to provide street lighting, so he prepared for three years. The construction of the railway was even longer.

Chu Yun talked with some officials from the Jianghuai Administration Office while walking and talking about some of the issues he was still worried about.

There is still a distance from Zhongshan Palace to the wharf. On both sides of the dirt roads in Nanjing City, there are some residents of Nanjing City who are watching the fun. If it weren't for the yamen runners maintaining order, these residents would have surrounded the streets.

A carriage came from the north of the city, and the person catching the car was a middle-aged man wearing a hat.

The carriage was originally well gone, but after approaching Chu Yun and the others, the horse pulling the carriage ran forward as if frightened.

"The horse was shocked, let go, get out of it!" the middle-aged man shouted.

The residents of Nanjing City, who were originally blocked on the northern section of the road, paniced to retreat to both sides.

"What's going on ahead? Check it out quickly." Yu Cheng saw that the crowd in front suddenly became restless, so he ordered a subordinate to check it out.

"Woooooo..." A little girl who was only five or six years old fell to the ground and cried.

"Child, why did you get in?" The yamen runners who discovered the existence of the little girl walked over.

At this moment, the frightened horse pulled the vehicle and scattered the crowd, and it was very likely that it would step over the little girl!

"Save her!" Chu Yun immediately said when he saw this scene.

Some yamen runners and the guards beside Chu Yun quickly went to pick up the little girl.

Dada! The horse's hooves flashed by, but fortunately the little girl was rescued in advance!

Chu Yun, Yu Cheng and others hid to one side and avoided the carriage.

Seeing that the carriage was about to pass by, Ella had some doubts and took a step forward and stood in front of Chu Yun.

Chu Yun noticed a middle-aged man on the frightened carriage. One hand had already penetrated into the cloth bag next to him, and felt a little bad premonition.

"Be careful!" Chu Yun took the lead and protected Ella behind him, then pulled out a revolver that had never been in actual combat, almost at the same time as the middle-aged man on the carriage!

Bang bang! Two gunshots resounded throughout the streets of Nanjing City!

The middle-aged man was shot and fell from the carriage.

"Ahhhh!" The residents of Nanjing who were originally watching screamed, and they were in chaos. The sudden assassination made them panic!

"Military Master!" Yu Cheng and others shouted hysterically, protecting Chu Yun in the middle.

Ella did not expect Chu Yun to pull herself back at a critical moment. At this time, there was a touch of red blood on her cheeks, but this was not her blood, but Chu Yun's blood.
