Regarding the evil deeds committed by the slave thieves in Liaodong, the Tiger Character Banner hated them with all their teeth, whether in the military or at the local level.
Yang Jiachen grew up on the grasslands, but he is also Han.
What the slave thief did made him feel the same way.
Especially when he heard that a Han country like the Ming Dynasty chose to cooperate with the executioners who killed countless Han people, this made him hate the Ming Dynasty and become extremely disappointed with the people in power of the Ming Dynasty.
"Let's do what Ming Dynasty refused to do." Hong Chengchou raised his hand and patted Yang Jiachen on the shoulder, and then said, "Let's go, let's find a place to stay first."
With so many people accompanying them, ordinary inns simply cannot accommodate them. It is not easy to find a place to stay that can accommodate so many people.
Not long after they left, Zhou Shaoqing, who was supposed to leave, walked out from an inconspicuous corner.
Originally, he was planning to go back to resume his duties, but he was worried that the envoys of the Qing Dynasty living in the post house would get into trouble with the envoys of the Tiger Character Banner who had just arrived, so he planned to stay and wait for a while, and then go back to resume his duties after confirming that everything was fine.
But this time, the envoy team of the Tiger Character Flag left the post house.
Seeing this scene, Zhou Shaoqing's face turned as dark as the bottom of a pot.
He braved the risk of notoriety and sent the envoy team to the post house, but was kicked out by the people in the post house. It can be seen that the person in charge of the post house did not take him, the young minister of Honglu Temple, seriously at all.
He did not go back to Honglu Temple, but strode directly to the post house.
As soon as he entered the gate of the post house, he saw two handymen working in the post house.
He asked the two handymen with a dark face and said, "Where is your chief? Get him to me!"
Both the servants knew the young minister of Honglu Temple who had just left the post house.
Hearing that the gentleman wanted to find the director of the post house, and looking at his livid face, it was obvious that something was going to happen. The two servants did not dare to stay, and at the same time they turned around and ran back quickly to find the director of the post house.
It took a while for Zhou Shaoqing to go in and find the director of the post house. For the handyman who was working in the post house, he only asked someone for inquiries and then went straight to the courtyard where the envoys of the Qing Dynasty lived.
"Ambassador Fan, don't worry, those who have their own officials and thieves don't want to live here." After the director of the post house drove away Hong Chengchou and his party, he came to Fan Wencheng to show his merit.
When Fan Wencheng heard this, he raised the corners of his mouth and asked worriedly: "Wouldn't this bring trouble to Mr. Gu? If Mr. Gu is embarrassed because of this, I will have trouble sleeping and eating. .”
"It doesn't matter. If I drive other people out of the post house, I may be in trouble, but this tiger thief is different. Now the streets are full of people scolding this tiger thief. Even if I drive them out, there will be no one. Stand up for them." The owner of the post house looked disapproving.
"That's good. As long as it doesn't make things difficult for your boss, I'll be at ease." As he said that, Fan Wencheng waved to the men on the side and ordered, "Go and prepare twenty taels of silver to wrap for your boss."
Soon two twenty-two silver ingots were delivered.
"Ambassador Fan is too polite. I just said a few fair words. I didn't expect Ambassador Fan to be so polite." The host of the post house was very polite, but he did not move slowly and took the money directly into his own hands.
Seeing the other party accept the money, Fan Wencheng said with a smile: "The Qing Dynasty has always been very generous to people who work for it. The boss can accept it without any worries. There is no need to refuse."
"Then I won't be polite to Ambassador Fan." The post manager put the money into his sleeves with a smile on his face.
Twenty taels of silver was already quite a lot for him as a postmaster, and he only did something small in his opinion.
At this moment, two servants from the post house ran over one after the other.
"Master, chief." The handyman shouted as he ran.
Fan Wencheng noticed it and said to the manager of the post house on the side: "Mr. Gu, I seem to be looking for you."
The manager of the post house turned around and saw the two handymen who were about to run up to him. He looked very unhappy and said, "Ambassador Fan is making a fool of himself. The people below have no rules at all."
"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter." Fan Wencheng waved his hand magnanimously and said immediately, "These two people are so anxious to come here. Maybe they have something urgent to ask the boss to help you."
The manager of the post house also guessed this and said politely to Fan Wencheng: "Ambassador Fan, please wait a moment and let me ask you something."
After saying that, he walked quickly towards the two handymen who were running towards him.
When the two handymen entered the yard, they saw the manager of the post house who was with Fan Wencheng and immediately ran towards them.
"What's going on with you two? Who allowed you to break into the envoy's yard without permission? Have you even forgotten the rules?" The director of the posthouse came to the two servants and immediately scolded them.
One of the handymen said breathlessly: "Master, Mr. Zhou is here!"
"Who is Mr. Zhou?" The host of the post house did not respond for a moment, so he asked again.
The servant said: "That's Mr. Zhou, the young minister from Honglu Temple."
"Why is he here? Isn't he already gone?" The director of the post house frowned. Zhou Shaoqing's arrival was beyond his expectation.
Another handyman said cautiously: "I'm waiting at the gate of the post house. I've called your name and want to see you. Would you like to see me, sir?"
"Did you say something?" asked the host of the post house.
The two handymen shook their heads, and one of them said carefully: "Master Zhou seems to be very angry, and the other boys don't know either."
"Angry?" The owner of the posthouse frowned and said to himself, "Maybe he knew about the tiger thief, but that's not the case! So many people hate the tiger thief, so they drove the tiger thief away The other party in the post house should be happy."
However, the other party was the Shaoqing of Honglu Temple, who was much older than him, a low-ranking miscellaneous official, and he did not dare to make the other party wait any longer.
After saying goodbye to Fan Wencheng, he took two handymen and ran to Zhou Shaoqing.
When he arrived, Zhou Shaoqing was still waiting inside the gate of the post house.
"I have met Zhou Shaoqing." The host of the post house trotted to Zhou Shaoqing and saluted.
Zhou Shaoqing looked him up and down, pointed at him, and said angrily: "Okay, that's great! I brought the team of envoys to the post house. As soon as I handed it over to you, you kicked him out of the post house. You This person in charge is really good at his job, it’s really an eye-opener for me.”
"I'm wronged!" When the director of the post house saw that Zhou Shaoqing was really here for the envoy of the Tiger-Character Flag, he immediately spoke out to defend himself.
Zhou Shaoqing raised his eyes when he heard this and sneered: "What? You think I have wronged you!"
"Xiaguan doesn't dare. Xiaguan said that he was wronged by the tiger bandit." The owner of the post house defended himself, "It's not that Xianguan drove them out of the post house. It's really because they didn't want to live in the post house. They took the initiative to If you leave, everyone in the post house can prove it to me."
