Not only the distinguished guests from Yingtian Shifu, but also guests from Zhejiang, Jiangxi and other provinces were too scared to stay in Songjiang. It's as if you can only breathe if you leave the territory of King Haiyan
Xu Fan felt regretful. If he had known that it was Hai Rui who replaced Lin Run, he would have personally stood guard to protect Lin Zhongcheng's safety.
Lin Run only wants his family¡¯s property, but if Hai Rui comes, he won¡¯t even be able to save his life
Xu Fan stood under the eaves, looking sadly at the distinguished guests scattered about by birds and animals. After a while, he turned to Hu Zhi who appeared next to him and said:
"It's true that 'human relationships are as cold as the water in Wujiang River, and the world is as difficult as the road in Shu'"
As he spoke, he felt a little comforted and said, "In the end, Mr. Lushan is still reliable."
"This" Hu Zhi said with a slight embarrassment: "Just now a message came from my fellow villagers, saying that my mother at home is seriously ill, and I have to go back to take care of her illness."
"Uh" Xu Fan felt the burning pain on his face and couldn't help but tell the truth: "Didn't Mr. Lushan worry about his mother twenty years ago?"
"Stepmother, stepmother." Hu Zhi said: "It's the same as writing a letter if you have something to do. I'll set off first. If it's late, I'll close the city gate."
After saying that, he walked away quickly.
He also served as an official in a dignified manner, so there was no reason for him to sink the river with the Xu family ship.

As Niu Qianshi said, there is no airtight wall in the world. Three days later, the news that Hai Rui was about to take over as governor of Yingtian had spread to Jiangnan.
There were different opinions before, and people were speculating on the candidate for governor Yingtian, but after guessing, no one guessed that it would be Hai Rui.
Because this weapon of mass destruction is so terrifying.
In everyone¡¯s opinion, shouldn¡¯t those Jiangnan gentry with their bright hands and eyes avoid using Hai Rui in the first place?
This is Governor Yingtian, who is known as the best governor in the world!
???????????????? and its full name is - Du Cha Yuan You Qian Du Yu Shi, prime minister of grain storage, admiral of military affairs, and governor of Yingtian.
That is to say, in addition to serving as the feudal officials of the ten prefectures of Yingtian, Taiping, Chizhou, Huizhou, Ningguo, Anqing, Guangde, Songjiang, Suzhou, Changzhou, and Zhenjiang, the richest and most prosperous prefectures of the Ming Dynasty, the governor of Yingtian There are also the posts of 'Governor of Grain Storage' and 'Admiral of Military Affairs'.
The main responsibility of the ¡®Governor-General¡¯s Grain Reserve¡¯ is to ensure that grain from the ten prefectures and one prefecture in the south of the Yangtze River and the Hangjiahu region in Zhejiang is continuously sent from the canal to Beijing and other places.
¡°The ¡®admiral¡¯s military affairs¡¯ refers to the garrison troops in the areas under the jurisdiction of Governor Yingtian, who are also under his jurisdiction to protect the most important financial and taxation areas of the Ming Dynasty and the safety of transportation lifelines.
??????????????????? And before the above-mentioned position, he also had the identity of "The Imperial Censor of the Imperial Palace" Because Hai Rui's seniority is relatively junior, after all, he was only a fifth-grade official last winter. Therefore, he is not qualified to hold the title of "Right Deputy Capital Censor" of the third rank.
But that¡¯s not important, because this title can also supervise all civil and military officials within the jurisdiction. Therefore, although he is only a fourth-rank official, his power and status exceed even many second-rank officials. For example, the ministers in Nanjing
The position of Governor Yingtian is so important, so the imperial court has always been cautious in selecting candidates. Only officials with both ability and political integrity and excellent qualifications are selected.
Since Chenghua, no official with a Juren background has been able to sit in this position.
What do those powerful families do for food? How could the imperial court give the most important official position in South China to someone like King Haiyan?
Who is the King of Hell? He is the number one nemesis of corrupt officials and local tyrants and evil gentry. Even the emperor will not let him go when he gets angry. He is the number one fierce man throughout the ages!
When the news spread, the whole Jiangnan was in a panic.
No one has the courage to use their own neck to pick up the edge of this divine sword.
I can¡¯t afford to offend him, so I can only find a way to avoid it.
So scenes of absurd dramas that are rare in history were staged in ten prefectures and one state in the south of the Yangtze River.
The chiefs and assistants of the government, state, and county all consciously work overtime day and night, tiringly sorting out various affairs in the yamen. The backlogged cases are tried quickly, the delayed official affairs are handled quickly, the holes in the accounts are quickly filled, and the treasury is filled with shoddy goods. The old grain was quickly sold and replaced with new rice.
If you don¡¯t have enough money, just take it out of the small coffer. If you really can¡¯t pay out of your own pocket.
In a word, they wipe their buttocks vigorously to prevent the King of Hell from seeing the poop on their buttocks.
? ???There are also many guys who are too greedy to fill the hole. There are also those corrupt officials who have done all kinds of bad things and think they are inevitable. They leave their posts without even saying hello and go to other places to avoid trouble.
They would rather become a gangster than take a gamble on whether they would be lucky enough to escape the clutches of the King of Hell.
After all, the governor will not be re-elected. He can go home after hiding out for up to three years. If Hai Rui targets him, he may not even be able to save his life
??~~
Seeing that the officials were like this, the gangsters, gangsters, and gangsters who usually bullied the market, roamed the countryside, and took advantage of the sidelines were all scared out of their wits and fled completely before Hai Rui took office.
In addition, all the powerful families were frightened.
In the past, they loved to be arrogant and show off their wealth, for fear that others would not know that they were rich. At this moment, everyone is trying their best to keep a low profile. They all imitated Taishi Hua from that time and painted the vermilion door of their house black overnight.
The painters in Jiangnan suddenly saw a boom in business. Even the master who painted the coffin shop in Longjiang was invited to respond to the emergency.
Who dares to sit in a sedan chair randomly when going out? Not to mention the Jin gentry, even the officials in Nanjing City, who are less than the third rank, have all switched to riding donkeys.
And the silks and satins on her body were all replaced by coarse cloth clothes, and someone even patched the fine robes. Who dares to go to restaurants or visit brothels anymore? They all stayed at home and didn't go out.
???????????????????????????????????????????????????? If anyone says that their family is rich, they will become enemies on the spot!
¡®Your family is rich only if your family is rich! Whoever has money is the grandson! ¡¯
Even the eunuchs, who were usually lawless and domineering, all restrained themselves.
How majestic and glorious was the dignified Nanjing eunuch Ma Eunuch? To go in and out, you have to ride in a sedan chair with eight carriages, and there are hundreds of people guarding the ceremony.
As soon as he heard that Hai Rui had become the governor of Yingtian, even though he had no control over him as the guarding eunuch, Eunuch Ma immediately cut off his ceremonial guard, reduced his bodyguards by half, and replaced his sedan chair with a green one because according to regulations , given his level, he can only ride in a four-person sedan.
Don¡¯t be afraid of 10,000, just be afraid of what happens. Who knew that the King of Hell would not like it that day, so what should we do if we read a copy of it?
As for Li You, the weaving eunuch who caused the civil unrest in Suzhou, he was in panic all day long. He fled Nanzhili directly and hid in a separate industry in Hangzhou. He said he was ill and closed his doors to thank guests.
ps. Chapter 3, the chapter I owe will be made up tomorrow. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
