Tan Zhen stared blankly at the handwritten letter from Yang Douzhi, the chief officer of the Imperial City Division. In addition to this letter, there was another handwritten letter from his boss, Liang Shicheng.
The content of Liang Shicheng's letter is very clear, that is, if he really wants to take control of the Hangzhou Shipping Department, it is best to unconditionally follow the instructions of Gao Zhang, the governor who came from the southern tour.
But now, Yang Douzhi's letter made it very clear that the Zhu family and his son were plotting rebellion, and after the incident was revealed, they intended to arrest the two deputy governors Tong Zhisheng and Cai Yao who entered Suzhou City.
Fortunately, the two received the news in time and escaped from Suzhou City desperately. However, Cai Yao was seriously injured and Tong Zhisheng was injured.
Next, it depends on whether you, the great eunuch of the palace, want to make a contribution in such an extraordinary period. In this way, you will definitely be in control of the Shibo Division, which will also be of great benefit to you in the future.
Tan Zhen slowly put down the letter, put his hands behind his hands and began to pace back and forth in the room, while the Imperial City Messenger in front of him wisely retreated to the door, leaving the eunuch to ponder on his own.
Tan Zhen knew very well that Yang Douzhi's letter contained a lot of content, but there were still some contents that he could only fill up with his own imagination.
It's like the other party only wrote about the benefits if he could stand up in time and help the governor in countering the rebellion.
He did not write down what would happen if he stood aside.
But as the great eunuch in the palace, how could Tan Zhen not understand the fate of losers and bystanders?
If I really just huddled in this old and small place and shivered, it wouldn't be impossible.
It is absolutely safe and sound, and there is no fear of life, but what happens next?
The Zhu family and his son only disturbed Jiangnan. Once the imperial court reacts and puts down the rebellion of the Zhu family and his son, it will definitely succeed.
But when it comes time to reward one's merits, not only will he not be honored, he will most likely be blamed by the officials for being slack and derelict in his duties.
As a slave of the Tian family, Tan Zhen's hair stood on end at what would happen to him once he was hated by the emperor.
Tan Zhen walked around the house seven or eight times, then slowly stood still in the house, raised his head, and looked at the Imperial City Sigan who had delivered the letter.
"Besides these two letters, as you Yang know, do you have any other explanations?"
"Reporting to Zhongguan Tan, Commander Li, the commander of the Hangzhou Horse Infantry Army, has been ordered to reorganize the troops.
In addition, the autographed letter from Cai Liulang, the deputy governor's envoy, should be delivered to the Hangzhou magistrate soon. "
#####
As soon as he said this, Tan Zhen suddenly looked a bit embarrassed. The chief officer in Hangzhou was a subordinate of Prime Minister Cai, and the commander of the Hangzhou Horse and Infantry Army must have been the handiwork of Captain Gao.
What about the powerless and dignified Zhongguan Tan? Isn’t it possible to just stand here and wave the flag and shout for those civil and military officials?
With a dark face, Tan Zhen walked to the desk again and looked at the two letters carefully again. After reading them for a long time, his eyes suddenly lit up.
"Come here, prepare pens and paper for our family, hurry up..."
As a palace eunuch with rich experience in political struggles, after reacting, he realized that his role was far more than just waving flags and shouting.
For example, collecting evidence of the crimes of the Zhu family and his son, such as secretly reporting to the emperor through his own channels the news that the Zhu family and his son were conspiring to cause rebellion.
There is also the use of one's own identity to coordinate the pace of Hangzhou's civil and military forces. Only in this way can one's own value be demonstrated.
Seeing that Tan Zhongguan, who had been depressed and depressed before, suddenly became stunned at this moment, the detective of the Imperial City Department also secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
After all, my messenger trip was not in vain, but I don’t know what the situation is like over there in Hangzhou Zhizhou?
At this moment, the new Hangzhou magistrate stared blankly at the letter. It was an autographed letter from Cai Laoliu, who often called himself the Qilinzi of the Cai Mansion, was the elder of the court, and was very famous in Bianliang, Tokyo.
The letter strongly criticized and accused the Zhu family and his son for their evil behavior in Suzhou.
In addition, he and Tong Zhisheng sneaked into Suzhou for a private visit, and accidentally discovered that the Zhu family had grown to the point of arrogance. They privately forged armored soldiers and recruited nearly 10,000 dead soldiers, with the intention of dominating Jiangnan and plotting to become independent.
As a result, the two of them who discovered the plot of Zhu's father and son were found out by Zhu, who sent minions to hunt them down. They luckily escaped from Suzhou.
Now, you, the magistrate of Hangzhou, a disciple of my father, why don't you step forward quickly and cooperate with the governor's envoy team to encircle and suppress the number one cancer in the south of the Yangtze River.
Looking at this letter, which was so arrogant and domineering that it seemed to have more leadership style than Prime Minister Cai, Hu Zhizhou felt extremely pained and frightened.
I spent a lot of money to get help from Prime Minister Cai, and I was able to come to the prosperous land of Suzhou and Hangzhou in the south of the Yangtze River.
The location of Zhizhou, I haven't even warmed my buttocks yet, and I haven't even had time to visit the Goulan Pavilion in Suzhou and Hangzhou.
It's so fucking ridiculous that something like this happened.
Cai Liulang and Tong Dalang were chased by the Zhu family's minions, and both of them were injured. The Zhu family's backer was the biological father of these two people.
If the Zhu family and his son did not really want to rebel, would they dare to kill their own son who was their patron? Haha...of course I don't dare.
At that moment, Hu Zhizhou sat down behind the desk, looking so distracted.
A personal attendant quickly rushed to the door of the study and cautiously reported into the study that Tan Zhen, the enshrinement officer of Hangzhou Jinming Bureau, had urgent matters and asked to see Zhizhou.
Hearing this, Hu Zhizhou's eyes suddenly lit up and he jumped up. "Please, please quickly, please please quickly..."
#####
Dozens of large and small ships on the Qiantang River are flowing down the river, speeding across the south of the Yangtze River at seemingly slow speed.
"Brother, that side should be Hangzhou City..."
Fang Fei stood on the deck and raised his hand, pointing straight ahead.
Although his surname is Fang, he is actually not fat at all. Instead, he is a somewhat lean scholar.
At this moment, he also rarely took off his Confucian shirt, put on some smart clothes, and followed his cousin Fang La.
Fang La nodded and turned to look at the dozens of large and small ships behind him.
Here, there are three thousand young men in Qingxi County, in fact there are nearly five hundred, all of them are children of the Fang family.
Even though he is just a temporarily appointed head of the capital.
But Fang La knew very well that as long as he could successfully complete the important task entrusted to him by Gao Zhang, the prodigy champion who was deeply favored by the emperor and the governor of the two Zhejiang roads.
So in the past, I was just a country squire, but I would really take this opportunity to rise to the top.
A true man should carry a three-foot sword, achieve unparalleled achievements, and make his wife a shadow of his son. This is how he should be.
There was no such opportunity in the past, but now, such a wonderful opportunity is right in front of us.
If I can't even grasp this, how can I face my deceased parents?
