Chapter 201: Here comes the troublemaker

The palace was really anxious, otherwise Huang Jin would not have left the palace overnight and hung himself from the imperial city with a hanging basket. He first went to the Xu family to find someone, but found that the Xu family had been in the road affairs bureau in recent days. Huang Jin had to bite the bullet and run to the road affairs bureau.

The road government has been working all night in recent days. Although there are dozens of people here rarely go out and they are hiding inside, there are quite a few things that need to be busy. Huang Jin thought they were doing nothing now, but unexpectedly they were not idle at night.

But he couldn't take too much care at this time. What's the use of being diligent? The emperor is already anxious and angry, so he doesn't care whether you have tried your best. The most important thing is whether this matter can be done.

Xu Chang didn't expect Huang Jin to come in person, so he hurriedly came out to greet Eunuch Wang, let alone Eunuch Wang. Hearing that Eunuch Huang was about to lose his soul, he came over to say hello obediently.

This time, Huang Jin did not show his signature smile anymore. He had a blue face and was too lazy to even greet him. He said directly: "I won't talk anymore. Your Majesty has already been angry and said, "Since you have received the grace of holy, why are you so lazy? The emperor also said, "It's extraordinary and extraordinary things, and you must not delay any longer at the moment. Xu Qian, you should know that Your Majesty is very fond of you. The so-called scholars die for your confidant. Now Your Majesty entrusts you with great things, how can you remain indifferent?"

This statement naturally wronged Xu Qianren and others. What kind of laziness is clearly looking for scumbags. However, Huang Jin was afraid that he would not say anything serious enough to attract everyone's attention, so he took the initiative to make a move.

Xu Qian was not willing to suffer a loss, so he immediately argued: "What is this? We have been eating and staying in the road government these days, and we are lying in the document every day and night. What does it mean to be lazy? What is the original words of Your Majesty?"

Huang Jin was speechless for a moment. This guy was too serious, so he could only sigh and said, "Do you know that Your Majesty is already furious? Let me tell you the truth. Now that he has listened to you and planned the road affairs bureau, there are many rumors in the court. Your Majesty has already spoken out. Within half a month, you must make some noise, otherwise Long Yan will be furious and our family can't bear it. Can you bear it?"

He had a tough attitude at first, but he knew that he could not keep being tough. Xu Qian has always been soft but not hard. Of course, he would stop when he saw good things. This little ancestor is not afraid of heaven or earth. Huang Jin could not learn from him? So he smiled gently and said, "That's all that should be said... Xu Baihu, be honest, will it work in half a month?"

Xu Chang was in trouble because the plan was proposed by Xu Qian, and Xu Qian's plan was unprecedented. Of course, he didn't know whether it could be successful. So the old man looked at Xu Qian and gave Xu Qian a wink.

Xu Qian sighed and said, "In fact, although half a month is compact, it is not bad to do it. But the problem is that sharpening the knife will not delay the chopping of wood. Now I am too hasty, I am afraid..."

Huang Jin interrupted him and said, "I don't care about so much at this time. Don't worry, just let go. The cabinet will most likely be eyeing you. Your Majesty is also watching you. The situation is all about you, Xu Qian..." He decided to use some appeasement methods and regained his kind smile. He put his hand on Xu Qian's shoulder intimately and said, "Actually, everyone is anxious and angry. If you do things, it is equivalent to sprinkling nectar to our long-dry hearts. Your Majesty has great trust in you, so you must not disappoint Your Majesty. If you have any trouble, come to our house."

Xu Qian suddenly realized that things had exceeded his expectations. In fact, at the beginning, he just thought that some people might be targeting him, but he didn't expect that the cabinet would use this as a matter of making a fuss. Of course, the reason why the cabinet used it as a matter of money was not because the political situation of the road that touched their interests, or because they had any grudges about the political situation, but because of the political situation of the road that there was an excuse to scold the emperor.

And what will happen to the emperor? Other emperors don’t know, but Jiajing and Xu Qian know too much. This guy or his previous thoughts just wanted to alleviate the tension in the inner treasury, but now it involves the issue of prestige and face, so there will be no such easy talk.

"Since that's the case, I can only give it a try now!"

………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

The capital has a large population and is no longer limited to the population and size when Chengzu settled the capital. Nowadays, not only are the capital crowded, but also large-scale markets appear outside the city.

This is a market outside Chaoyang Gate. On the gravel-paved street, you can see the merchants leading camels, and you can also see the peddlers carrying loads to sell here. There are also grandfathers in bright clothes. The shops along the street are not as neatly planned as in the city. Most buildings are even built temporarily, so they look very down and out.

But don’t underestimate this kind of place. The prosperity here is definitely not under Hangzhou. Every inch of land is worthwhile under the emperor’s feet. When Chengzu built the capital, it was only planned to be a little large. However, with more than a hundred years of population reproduction and the migration of a large number of people, the city has become a gathering place for wealthy families, while the goods transported from all over the country are gathered nearby.

Although the merchants here have low status, they are mostly rich, just like a pharmacy shop leaning against the tail of the alley. Although they look inconspicuous outside, the owners here have a net worth of 10,000 silver patterns.

They are not only selling medicinal materials, but the biggest way to make money is to transport medicinal materials from Liaodong to gather here. At least the medicinal materials needed by many pharmacies in the capital are handled by this owner.

Zhao Sheng was obviously very satisfied with his current situation. The Zhao family already had a foundation in Liaodong. His younger brother specially purchased medicinal materials in Liaodong and then sent someone to Tianjin. He only needed to go to Tianjin to pick up the goods every month.

Usually, he was very leisurely and was busy for a while. Most of the things in the medicine hall were handled by his servants, while Zhao Sheng went to the side room to have tea and sit leisurely, and occasionally went to meet his friends.

The weather was not good these days, it was always gloomy and the air suddenly became cold. It seemed that it was a sign of winter, so Zhao Sheng seemed lazy.

After drinking a few sips of hot tea, he finally felt a little energetic, but at this moment, there was a noise outside.

"Do you want to admit it if you take this medicine to death? My brother said that the medicine was bought from you. Why do you want to deny it?"

"Keep, our Dongsheng Pharmacy has never had any trouble eating any death. We have seen many people like you. It's just that the gangsters on the street want to blackmail some money. Let me tell you the truth. Our boss has already dealt with the local King Zhu. We also have a lot of money for the King Zhu to get..."

"Who knows the King of Zhu, which onion he is?"

Hearing this, Zhao Sheng couldn't help frowning. In fact, there are indeed people coming to make trouble every now and then in the medicine hall. As long as there is money, there will always be people who are desperate. But he is not afraid of anything. The most powerful person in the local area is Zhu Tianwang, and Zhu Tianwang has a good relationship with him. The medicine hall will also send a sum of silver to Zhu Tianwang's mansion on time every month. With him, any kind of robber can be settled.

It was just that when Zhao Sheng heard the other party telling him which onion Zhu Tian was, he trembled for a moment. He thought that he had met some very powerful person, but after thinking about it, he found that the other party's accent did not look like a local person, but rather from the south.

As a result, Zhao Sheng's heart suddenly became convinced. The other party must be a group of desperate gangsters. When he arrived in the capital, he had nothing to do and had no money at hand, so he put his ideas on his pharmacy. Otherwise, how could he not even know who Zhu Tianwang was?

Zhao Sheng felt confident and was not afraid. He came out of the side room with a stern face. Sure enough, he saw two people quarreling with his friends. He coughed and walked up to them and bowed to them, "Why are you so aggressive? You are all friends all over the world, so you can't make a grudge for the sake of making enemies, right?"

He was full of laughter, and then said to the guy on the side: "Go and give some broken silver to your two brothers. These two brothers are short of money. Come on, give some money."

Generally speaking, it is better to have less business than to have more things. Just take some money to get things done. Zhao Sheng is the same. After all, it is quite a lot of money to alarm the government or other activities, and he still has to owe favors. Instead of doing this, it is better to just get things done.

I thought the other party would submit, but the two men sneered together, and one of them said, "Why, I want to send us money? You can't help but look down on people too low!"

Zhao Sheng's face changed, and he smiled coldly with his hands in his arms: "In my opinion, you are shameless. Zhao Chang, go and ask someone to invite the King Zhu to come!"

As a result, the other party sneered. One of them suddenly took something into his arms. Soon, a waist-baring card fell into his hand. The man shouted: "I am Xu Han, the captain of Jinyi, why, who do you want to invite?"

Seeing this waist card, Zhao Sheng suddenly changed his expression. No one in the capital had ever heard of the Jinyiwei. Everyone knows the majesty of the Jinyiwei. It is not bad for those officials and big bosses, but it has a huge deterrence to small merchants like him.

Xu Han sneered: "Let's go, Zhao Dong's family, you have already revealed the truth, so you must go with us."
