Ming Dynasty: At the beginning of the game, Lao Zhu resigned and retired.

Chapter 620: Mr. Hu is treated differently
Chapter 620: Mr. Hu is treated differently
Master Hu sat in the middle of the carriage, swaying on the soft cushion, crossing his legs and looking out the window, followed by a series of sighs.

At this time, Mr. Hu was passing through the city of Suzhou.

Looking at the street scenes outside the car window that he had just seen in the past few days, which seemed familiar yet not familiar enough, Mr. Hu raised his eyebrows.

I have to say, this trip of mine didn’t start off very well!
He never thought that he was just going on a simple trip, but he would encounter such a weird thing.

The big joke of slipping the world!

A prefect and governor of the fourth rank was actually controlled by a merchant in his jurisdiction.

Your only son has been kidnapped, and you can only watch?

The other party could even use this matter as a bargaining chip to force the prefect to become the other party's ladder to success?

Damn!

When he thought about this, Mr. Hu didn't know whether he should be angry or laugh.

Although there are many outrageous things in the officialdom, it is somewhat rare to be so outrageous.

As for Sun Mingyang, Mr. Hu’s opinion is that this kind of person is actually not suitable to be an official.

This is especially true for local officials, who have to deal with various old-timers in officialdom while also maintaining peace and stability in the country.

It can be said that in terms of power, he is a local tyrant.

But the expansion of power will inevitably lead to the expansion of responsibility and the complication of the situation.

Anyone who lacks in emotional intelligence, IQ, character, or means will inevitably remain silent when he or she takes this position.

Even if you are unlucky, you will end up like Magistrate Sun, who was cheated to death.

In fact, Sun Mingyang is considered good in the eyes of Master Hu.

At least, although he lost his reputation, he didn't make any wrong move or do anything against the will of heaven.

The final situation was nothing more than being transferred back to Yingtian to do an idle job.

Life goes on as usual and your status remains the same.

But some people are really screwed and are in a terrible state.

Look, the next stop is Hangzhou, and the prefecture there is a hard-hit area.

At least, three prefects were replaced in five years, and all three prefects confiscated their property and exterminated their families, which is quite rare.

However, this prefect is known to Mr. Hu!

Jia Jia is also the "little brother" who has been delivering tea to the Hu family for several years.

Well, since I'm on my way, I might as well go and see this unfortunate guy.

After all, the scenery of Hangzhou is worth seeing!

However, you will have to spend some time on the road for a few days.

The good thing is that I don’t have to walk or take care of things by myself, so there’s nothing to worry about.

Just walk!
……

While Master Hu was staggering along the road at a leisurely pace, the elite personnel sent by the Suzhou Jinyiwei garrison had already arrived in Yingtian, escorting a large amount of things.

There was a whole ship full of stuff, and in the middle there were a large number of boxes that were obviously filled with silver and money. It would be too eye-catching at Yingtian Wharf.

But anyone with a little bit of common sense, looking at those ferocious-looking foreigners wearing flying fish costumes and holding embroidered spring swords surrounding them, would know that the farther away from this thing the better.

If the Jinyiwei becomes unreasonable, if you look at them for even a second, you will be considered to have bad intentions.

The Jinyiwei soldier who rushed over to report the news simply led the Jinyiwei commander Mao Xiang directly to the dock.

Mao Xiang looked at the dock with a serious face. The boxes were still being unloaded from the ship one after another. His eyelids could not help but twitch.

"Commander, this is the letter that Lord Hu asked me to pass on to you. Please check it!"

Looking at the envelope with a red paint seal that was respectfully handed to him, Mao Xiang took a deep breath, then took it, looked it up and down, nodded, and then opened it and began to read.

As a result, he almost vomited blood at this glance. Damn it, Master Hu, you must be kidding me.

Thank you so much!
This is good for you, you really know how to distinguish.

However, Mao Xiang really couldn't say anything wrong about Master Hu at this moment.

Because people have openly taken all aspects into consideration, and even take the necessary risks.

If you don't acknowledge this favor, then no one else will play along with you like this in the future.

Mao Xiang took a deep breath, suppressed his annoyance, turned to look at the other person and asked.

"Does Lord Hu have anything else to assign?"

"Reporting to the commander, Lord Hu has instructed that this batch of cash be transported directly to the imperial treasury. There is also a private letter that needs to be presented to His Majesty!"

"Well, let's unload the cargo quickly. After that, follow me into the palace and finish the work for His Majesty first!"

"Yes, Commander!"

"..."

No one else said much about this arrangement.

This is what should be done!

If they don’t flatter the emperor, will they be able to get their work done?

Immediately, all the foreigners who came with Mao Xiang rolled up their sleeves and started to help with the work without saying a word.

As for bringing in some laborers from the side who are specialized in unloading the goods?
Haha, what’s in here is either cash or priceless antiques, calligraphy and paintings or something like that.

Who dares to let outsiders interfere?

As the saying goes, there is strength in numbers, with the addition of this group of new forces.

Soon, the entire ship was unloaded.

At this point, the team split into two, one group followed Mao Xiang's footsteps and headed straight for the Forbidden Palace, while the other group escorted a large pile of "miscellaneous items" straight to the Jinyiwei headquarters.

It's not far from the dock to the Forbidden Palace, at least for this team of Jinyiwei who don't have to worry about traffic jams at all.

But once you arrive at the gate of the Forbidden Palace, you can't go in directly.

The only ones who could enter were the commander Mao Xiang and the centurion in charge of delivering letters.

What's interesting is that from beginning to end, the centurion never mentioned giving the "private letter" to Mao Xiang to pass on.

Mao Xiang acted as if he had never heard the news and allowed the centurion to "see the emperor"!
The two walked silently and quickly in the palace.

A whole incense stick of time passed before Mao Xiang and his men arrived in front of the Jinshen Hall.

Looking at the eunuch guarding the palace gate, Mao Xiang nodded and said in a deep voice: "Please let the eunuch know."

"Jinyiwei Commander Mao Xiang requests to see you, and has a private letter from Lord Hu!"

Who among those who can serve Zhu Yuanzhang in Jinshen Hall is not a shrewd person?

Anyone with a slow brain would have been beaten to death by him.

Therefore, the other party did not take Mao Xiang's request for a meeting seriously at all, but the three words "Mr. Hu" made the other party's eyes light up.

Then, he bowed to Mao Xiang, turned around and trotted into the hall.

Mao Xiang, however, looked as if it was a matter of course.

In fact, he knew that they would be released soon.

Sure enough, Zhu Yuanzhang's voice came from inside.

"Mao Xiang, did Wei Yong send us a letter?"
