Guide Prefecture Yamen.

The prefect He Xizhou and the magistrate Zhang Jinhe discussed again, just because they had received a letter from the Ministry of Personnel that an imperial envoy would come to handle the case.

He Xizhou introduced to Zhang Jinhe: "The imperial envoy who came to handle the case was Wang Xianggan, the son of Wang Zhiyuan, the governor of Huguang. However, Wang Xianggan was only in his thirties and was just a head of the Ministry of War shortly afterwards."

"Has the emperor promoted him to the right assistant minister of the Ministry of War just for the case of our Guide Mansion?" Zhang Jinhe asked curiously, thinking that this was incredible.

"I heard that the emperor asked whether any ministers came to Guide Mansion to handle the case on their own initiative. There was no minister who dared to agree."

"Will Wang Xiang dare to do it? Why is he? Is it because of a governor's father?"

"Why did he dare? The emperor asked him to come by his name and was afraid that Wang Xianggan would not have the confidence, so he promoted him to the right assistant minister of the Ministry of War. In this way, Wang Xianggan would not be able to refuse."

"Oh, so that's it. But the emperor thought that Wang Xiang would be able to find out the case in this way?"

"I heard that the emperor also gave Wang Xiangqian the Longquan sword that symbolizes imperial power, and he can be killed first and then reported."

Zhang Jinhe smiled and asked, "What clues have been found these days by the prefect?"

"No." He Xizhou shook his head confidently, and then murmured, "It's strange to say that those people are elusive. After shooting arrows and killing six Jinyiwei, they seemed to suddenly disappear from the world."

"Do you think it's very similar to the people who snatched Zhang Jingxiu's children from Baoding Mansion?"

"Yes, yes, it's simply carved from the same mold." He Xi and Zhou said with a smile.

"Did we not do our best?"

"Of course we do our best, but we can't find out." He Xizhou answered with understanding.

"That's it, we can't find out. Can that Wang Xiang find out when she's here?" Zhang Jinhe said with a bit of teasing and disdainful tone.

"But we are the magistrate of Guide Mansion after all, and the magistrate of the emperor. Do you think the emperor will provoke an army to sue him?"

"Actually, it's not our fault. I think anyone who comes to investigate will be the same in the end. If the emperor must blame him, what can we do? It's just a punishment. The worst thing is that he will be dismissed from his post and returned home is better than dying in Guide Mansion."

Zhang Jinhe's attitude was as clear as ever, as if he always believed that a strong dragon could not defeat a local snake, even if the strong dragon refers to the emperor.

Some people just can't afford to offend.

Then Zhang Jinhe said: "The emperor's reforms made the powerful and powerful people in the world deeply afraid. When everyone is afraid, it is hard to say how long can such a reform last. If there are difficulties in the whole country, how can the emperor take care of it? Through the two cases of Baoding Prefecture and Guide Prefecture, I can see some clues. Maybe it's just that the emperor has no time to take care of it, and finally has to give up the reform."

"Well, it makes sense. So, can we keep this posture when Wang Xiang comes?"

"Of course, cooperation requires cooperation, it depends on how capable Wang Xiang is."

"Okay! Then that's the agreement."

He Xizhou and Zhang Jinhe reached an agreement again, waiting for the arrival of the imperial envoy Wang Xianggan.

...

At this time, Wang Xianggan and Zhu Bajie had already arrived in Guide Prefecture, Henan.

The two of them are very fast.

Originally, Zhu Yiliu wanted to equip them with an imperial guard, but Wang Xiangtan refused.

First, he thought that it was enough to have Zhu Bajie, and people were sophisticated but not too many; second, he didn't want to show off - this was similar to Zhang Jiayin's idea when he went to Baoding.

So Wang Xianggan only brought one War Department Kanhe and asked Zhu Bajie to pretend to be his attendant. Of course, he also encountered officers and soldiers on the way, so he took out Kanhe. The two of them came to Guide Mansion quietly.

"Master, are you going to the Guide Mansion's Office now?" Zhu Bajie asked. He originally called Wang Xianggan "Master Wang", but after arriving at Guide Mansion, he changed his words to "Master" - this is based on Wang Xianggan's request.

"Let's go for two days first." Wang Xianggan replied.

"Master, Master is in a hurry to solve the case, and I also have to hurry back and be an imperial guard. How can I have time to wander around?" Zhu Bajie felt a little anxious.

"I'm so anxious that I can't eat hot tofu. Let's go for two days to get familiar with the customs and customs here. By the way, I'll find out the case and see what the locals say."

"Oh." Zhu Bajie nodded. Zhu Yiliu had told him that he had to be obedient at any time.

"By the way, we should try to speak less. The people here have different accents. You can tell at first that we both are from the north, not from the locals."

"Oh, I got it."

Wang Xianggan deliberately reminded Zhu Bajie. It would not matter whether he could see that they were locals? Wang Xianggan was worried that Zhu Bajie would not hide his identity well.

After all, Zhu Bajie is just a child, with a simple heart and lacks social experience.

"Are you hungry again?" Wang Xianggan seemed to hear Zhu Bajie's stomach croaking again.

He finally knew why Zhu Bajie's strength was as strong as a cow, and that guy could eat it.

On the way, he ate a bowl of rice, and Zhu Bajie wanted to eat four bowls. Whether it was noodles or steamed buns, it was four times his portion.

This is still not allowed to let Zhu Bajie eat it. If he let it go, it would probably be six or seven times his appetite.

The key is that I get hungry for a while, and I can hear the sound of Zhu Bajie's stomach gurgling at any time. It seems that I spend all my time on eating.

Zhu Bajie touched his stomach and replied with a silly smile: "Yes, I'm hungry."

"Did you eat so much each meal before?"

"Well, you'll be hungry if you don't eat."

"What happened to be when I was wandering on the street?" Wang Xianggan asked curiously. He now knew that Zhu Bajie was one of the wandering children adopted by Hu Yixian.

"It turns out that before I met Grandpa God, I ate one meal a day, and sometimes I couldn't eat all day long. Later, I met Grandpa God God, and I could eat several steamed buns at each meal, but I was still hungry. Until the college was established, I could barely fill my stomach. Grandpa God God and Grandpa God changed my life, and they were like my reborn parents."

"Do you think the rice is delicious or the noodles are delicious?"

"It's all the same, as long as you have something to eat."

"Do you get hungry and your stomach will scream?"

"Well, they all laughed at me and could sing in my stomach."

"Are you powerful or your master powerful?" Wang Xianggan found that chatting with Zhu Bajie was a pleasure.

"My master is not as strong as me, but he is good at martial arts. But Master also said that I can surpass him in less than five years." Zhu Bajie said proudly.

"What kind of person is your master in your mind?"

"The master is not a human, but a god." Zhu Bajie replied proudly, and then added, "The students in our college say this, even teachers."

"Or it's just this one." Wang Xianggan stopped in front of a bun shop.

"Master, I don't care. I'm afraid that there is not enough buns to eat, so it's not a good deal. I can have three meals if I have the money to eat buns."

"It's okay, I'll treat you today."

"Thank you, Master!" Zhu Bajie jumped up with joy.

Then the two of them went in.

Soon a call came: "Another cage."

"Another cage."

"Another cage."

“…”

After a while, he ate eight cages. Among them, Wang Xianggan only ate one cage, and Zhu Bajie ate seven cages.

He was stunned by the boss and couldn't help asking, "I'm afraid this boy hasn't eaten for several days, right?"

"No, I ate it two hours ago." Zhu Bajie replied after eating the last bun, "I still have to eat it in two hours, otherwise I will be very hungry."

"..." The boss was stunned and said in surprise, "I have never seen a customer with such an amazing appetite."

"Can you still eat?" the boss couldn't help asking.

"..." Zhu Bajie wanted to say it, but he still held it back and couldn't help but look at Wang Xiang, as if he was talking about whether he could still eat it but Wang Xiang.

"As long as you can eat, how about I give you two cages?"

"Okay, it's what you said, don't regret it," Zhu Bajie waved his hand with a slight look on his face, "What are you waiting for? Come on quickly. Not to mention two cages, even if you come with four cages, I can hold my stomach even if I get four cages."
