"What does it mean to seal a thousand households, Mr. Jiang?"
After a few days of contact, Jiang Wan and Kou Shen and Chen Wenrui got along well, and Li Shi and Feng Wanli seemed to have become good friends.
It was as if his weaving office was not in Suzhou, but in Wuxian County. He spent the whole day staying in the house of a rich man who had been placed for the Jinyiwei family of Feng Wanli, as comfortable as if he were at home.
"I don't know why Eunuch Li didn't ask him himself!"
Feng Wanli replied angrily.
There was wine and food on the table for the two of them, but neither of them seemed to be thinking about the food and wine.
"Then Jiu Qian Sui's order, should we do it or not!" Li Shi said with some distress: "I thought Master Jiang was here to carry out errands for Jiu Qian Sui, but I didn't expect that he would actually get along with those restless people.
The guys got mixed up together, we won’t be able to explain this to Jiu Qian Sui when the time comes!”
"Do you, an admiral, need to explain the matters in Suzhou?" Feng Wanli glanced at him: "Aside from a few pieces of silver, what else do you have? Even if this money belongs to the imperial court, it is not yours!"
"You can't say that!" Li Shi said seriously: "Since Jiu Qian Sui put our family in Suzhou Mansion, then our family has to keep an eye on these restless guys for Jiu Qian Sui. In my hands
You have no soldiers and no power, but you have it in your hands to seal thousands of households, Master Mao has it in his hands!"
"It's useless!" Feng Wanli shook his head: "Now Mr. Jiang is asking people like Zhou Shunchang to raise military resources for Liaodong for him. At this time, we have to take people. Not to mention Jiang Wan's refusal, even His Highness King Xin has to jump up.
If this happens in front of His Majesty, the 9,000-year-old man may not protect a little person like you and me!"
"Then this matter is over like this?" Li Shi said depressedly: "Let Chen Wenrui catch a few gangsters, and then once the case is closed, there will be no trace of it in the future!"
"We can't get through!" Feng Wanli said sternly: "Master Jiang will leave sooner or later. When he leaves, these people will be caught and killed. Who can protect them when I see it, it can't be me.
Come to Jiangnan for free!"
"Feng Qianhu is indeed a brave man under the command of Jiu Qianhu!" Li Shi picked up the wine glass: "I admire Feng Qianhu's boldness and domineering attitude!"
"Stop admiring me, think about yourself!" Feng Wanli picked up the wine glass and gave him a cold look: "I was in Liaoyuan today, but I seemed to hear Jiang Wan and Suzhou Magistrate Kou Shen talking about your weaving.
Regarding the yamen matter, you should think about whether there is anything you can use to catch someone in Suzhou!"
"Our family has been working very hard on errands for the Nine Thousand Years, how could there be any clue?"
Li Shi was stunned for a moment, then exploded: "I knew that Kou Shen is a smiling tiger. We said that every time we see him recently, he smiles so weirdly. I'm sorry, he has been waiting for us here.
!”
"You are on errands for the palace!" Feng Wanli looked at him as if he were looking at an idiot: "Even if you think so in your heart, you can't just say it, or say that your weaving yamen's accounts are in good order.
, every tael of silver collected has all gone to the palace, so Eunuch Li is very confident?"
Li Shi was immediately speechless. His accounts could not withstand inspection. Every year, part of the money woven in Suzhou fell into his pocket, and part went to Wei Zhongxian. It was hard to say whether 30% of it was actually sent to the palace.
"Even so, without a nine-thousand-year-old handwriting, who dares to check the accounts of my weaving yamen!" He said with a pinched neck: "A mere Jiangnan Guanfeng envoy really thinks that he is an imperial envoy, and dares to check the accounts of the palace.
!”
"What if he has His Majesty's will?" Feng Wanli is a little tired of this guy who keeps saying that he is Jiu Qian Sui. Jiu Qian Sui has such a subordinate. How can he share his worries? He is just bringing trouble to Jiu Qian Sui.
of.
He felt a little worried in his heart. If he was always in the company of such people, his future would not seem so bright.
"How could he have His Majesty's will..." Li Shi shouted, but his voice soon became lower: "Does he have His Majesty's will?"
Feng Wanli sighed: "I don't know either. How about Eunuch Li, go ask him?"
Before finishing the wine, Li Shi couldn't sit still, and left in a hurry. However, he was not going to Liaoyuan, but rushed back to Suzhou overnight.
What Feng Wanli said was simply too scary. Ever since this Po Guanfeng envoy came to Suzhou, all Li Shi could think about was feeling proud and proud, and relying on his prestige to defeat those guys who looked down on him on the ground in Suzhou.
Fix it up.
He didn't expect that the Lord Guanfeng Envoy would actually target him.
Regardless of whether what Feng Wanli said is true or not, he must take it seriously. According to Jiu Qiansui's instructions, Jiang Wan came to Jiangnan to handle cases. Now he has not handled any cases, but instead is doing things with the criminals.
It's possible for him to become a friend, but why can't he turn around and give Li Shi a black hand?
That night, the lights in Suzhou Weaving Yamen stayed on all night.
Li Shi also didn't sleep all night. When dawn came, he couldn't bear it any longer. He ordered his men to continue doing what he ordered, and then fell asleep.
"Don't disturb our family if you have nothing to do. After our family wakes up, if you haven't handled this matter smoothly, get out of our Yamen one by one and go to Nanjing to see the graves!"
He felt that he had just laid down and even closed his eyes, but the next moment, his subordinates woke him up.
"Are you seeking death?" Eunuch Li, who was still awake, had a very bad temper.
"My father-in-law, the one from the Jinyi Guard who Feng Qianhu is here!" The person who woke him up said cautiously.
"He's coming when he's here. Just go and greet him properly. Let's just hang out for a while and we'll go see him right away!"
"No, father-in-law!" The young eunuch said almost in a tearful tone: "This Qianhu family has brought a lot of royal guards to our Yamen. They are so aggressive that they don't look like they are here to have tea with my father-in-law!"
"What do you mean?" Mrs. Li sat up excitedly: "Are you dreaming? Our family was drinking with him yesterday, and he brought someone to trouble me today?"
"Really!" the young eunuch cried sadly: "He also said that if my father-in-law doesn't go out to see him during tea time, he will bring someone in to find him!"
"It's really special..."
Li Shi cursed angrily. As he got up, his mind was still groggy. What happened overnight? This Feng Wanli is one of his own. Could it be said that Jiu Qiansui was responsible for what he did in Suzhou?
