Smuggling Daming

Suspicion towards Wu Shan made Zhou Zhong wary of him from the very beginning, so he didn't arrange Wu Shan with him, but with Uncle Tuo. , sooner or later the anomaly will be discovered.If it doesn't matter, then he can learn something with Uncle Tuo, and it won't be too late to transfer to him in the future.

However, only a few people such as Brother Wangcai, Sanniang, and Uncle Tuo knew what Zhou Zhong suspected about Wu Shan. As for Steward Xu and Su Niang, Zhou Zhong did not tell them. She will give birth in a few months, this may be her and Steward Xu's only child, and there must be no mistakes, so there is no need for her to worry about Wu Shan's affairs. Secondly, Su Niang is Wu Shan's god-sister, so she will inevitably have frequent contact with her. I was afraid that she would show her feet if she found out, so she kept it a secret from them.

But what Zhou Zhong didn't expect was that since Wu Shan joined the Chamber of Commerce, he has been acting very normally, and he has been studying with Uncle Tuo very seriously, and he will soon be able to help Uncle Tuo with some affairs. Knowing that Wu Shan's background is suspicious, but still full of praise for him.In addition, both of them were surnamed Wu, and they might have been a family hundreds of years ago, so Uncle Tuo secretly told Zhou Zhong that if Wu Shan proved to be fine in the future, he would definitely accept Wu Shan as his godson.

Zhou Zhong, as the president of the Nanyang Chamber of Commerce, of course cannot put all his attention on Wu Shan. Apart from paying attention to Wang Lun in Songjiang City, he has two other things to do during this time. Although his fleet had not been out of port for a long time, he was still looking forward to the stars and the moon and waiting for the other party's return.Whenever news of the fleet came, he would be happy for a while.

The other thing is the growth of peppers. Those germinated pepper seedlings grew very quickly, and four or five leaves had already been pulled out, and it turned out that Zhou Zhong planted them a little densely, so Zhuan'er called Bai Mengwan and Wang Jinxuan together, and the three girls put them together. The peppers were transplanted, and after Bai Mengwan and Wang Jinxuan learned the importance of peppers, they also volunteered to join the team to take care of the peppers.Bai Mengwan has nothing to do every day.She felt a little embarrassed that she was eating and drinking for free, but Wang Jinxuan wanted to distract herself, otherwise she would cry for her father every day, and she might collapse before her father was rescued.

During this period of time, through the news from the Xie family and the manpower he arranged in Songjiang City, Xu Guan was very happy to coax the hundred households of Jinyiwei who came to escort Wang Lun back to Beijing.There were big banquets and small banquets one after another, and he even spent a lot of money to buy a beautiful Japanese girl as a present for the other party, which made the adult from a hundred families not want to leave.

However, this method of delay can only be used for a while, and the hundred households have to obey orders, and the superior has set a time limit for him to return to Beijing, so the other party can only delay as much as possible within this time limit.If you count the time, the other party will leave soon.But that Baihu has already accepted Xu Guan's money.And he also patted his chest to promise that Wang Lun would not be wronged on the way, and at the same time, he tried to return to Beijing in the last few days of the deadline.

For Wang Lun, Zhou Zhong has done everything he can think of, and now it all depends on Wang Lun's luck, but he is also worried now, after he traveled through time.It will definitely have a certain impact on the original history, in case Liu Jin was not moved down in April as recorded in the original history.That would be too bad.

A few days later, Wang Lun was finally going to be escorted back to Beijing for questioning. When the news spread, the whole Songjiang Mansion was shaken, especially those victims outside the north gate. Many of them were rescued by Wang Lun himself. However, after hearing the news, they spontaneously organized themselves and stood on both sides of the road outside the city gate to see Wang Lun off.

Speaking of which, after surviving the harsh winter, these victims have begun to look for a way out. Many of them have become hired workers for some landlords in Songjiang Prefecture, and some have entered the city to work. Although these people do not earn much, they at least Make sure you don't starve to death.But the best way is to work overseas, such as Xie's soap workshop on Dayang Island, and the manpower needed by some chambers of commerce in Shuangyu Port, etc. Many of them are recruited from these victims.

It is also because the victims are all looking for a way out, so the refugee camps outside the north gate have already fallen apart, most of the people have moved away, and the remaining victims have also improved their living conditions and built buildings in the camps. They have found a more decent residence, which makes the disaster camp look dilapidated, but it has a kind of vitality.

The victims who had been scattered all over Songjiang Mansion rushed back yesterday afternoon, and even last night, because today is the day when Wang Lun was escorted away, and he left from the north gate, so the camp for the victims is full again. There were people, eggs, hot water and other things in their hands, ready to see Wang Lun off.

In addition to these disaster victims who came to see him off, many people in Songjiang City also came to see Wang Lun off. After all, Wang Lun was a famous doctor in the city before, and there were definitely not a few patients healed by his hands. He is also kind and charitable, and he is a well-known benevolent person in the city. Therefore, after hearing about Wang Lun's accident, these people, like the victims of the disaster, all rushed to see him off. Now the total number of people has exceeded [-]. The sides are crowded and packed.

Among the people who came to see them off, Zhou Zhong and Wang Jinxuan dressed up as an ordinary young couple, mixed in the crowd and looked at the city gate anxiously, and there were more than a dozen guards around them dressed up as ordinary people to protect them from being caught by others. near.

Zhou Zhong had received the news that Wang Lun was going to be escorted away a few days ago. He didn't intend to tell Wang Jinxuan, but Wang Jinxuan is a smart woman. After she learned that the Jinyiwei who escorted her father had arrived in Songjiang, she kept thinking about her father. At the same time, he often asked Zhou Zhong about the date of departure, but Zhou Zhong accidentally showed a strange expression, which immediately made Wang Jinxuan aware of something. In the end, Zhou Zhong couldn't stand her hard questioning, so he had to tell her the news.

After learning that her father was going to be escorted away today, Wang Jinxuan burst into tears again, and finally thought of seeing her father off.Speaking of which, after Wang Lun was questioned, according to the imperial decree, his family members would also be imprisoned together, but Wang Lun’s wife died early, he divorced several concubines early, and his sons were all officials outside, so they were temporarily released. There is no problem, five of the six daughters are married off, and they have nothing to do with the natal family legally, so the only one who is implicated is Wang Jinxuan.

It is precisely because of this that Wang Jinxuan is now a wanted criminal by the court. Of course, with Xu Guan behind her, the Songjiang government simply does not work hard, but even so, if she appears in Songjiang and is recognized, then It is also a big trouble.

At the very beginning, Zhou Zhong was naturally resolutely opposed to Wang Jinxuan's desire to return to Songjiang to see Wang Lun off. After Zhou Zhong's refusal, she even ran to Zhou Zhong's yard and knelt down, and she would not get up if Zhou Zhong didn't agree.This made Zhou Zhong very embarrassed. In the end, Aunt Wang and Zhuaner also helped Wang Jinxuan to intercede. Zhou Zhong had no choice but to agree to take Wang Jinxuan back to Songjiang to see Wang Lun for the last time.

"Good people are not rewarded, and a good person like Master Wang was arrested. Everyone in the court is blind!" Standing not far from Zhou Zhong, a skinny young man in a patched shirt was very resentful. Dao, judging from his appearance, he should be a victim in the victim camp who has been treated by Wang Lun.

"Young man, even though our emperors and ministers of the Ming Dynasty are innocent now, don't speak so loudly. Be careful not to be overheard by interested people. It will be a big trouble at that time!" The old man kindly persuaded him, but he didn't realize that he had also committed the crime of disrespect in the first half of the sentence.

"Hey, I heard it when I heard it. At worst, I will go to Shuangyu Port. Anyway, it is not under the control of the imperial court. Even Jin Yiwei's minions can't reach there!" I saw the young man facing the Ming soldiers in front of the city gate He spit out a mouthful of foam, and said with fierce eyes, the Chamber of Commerce in Shuangyu Port had been recruiting people from the victims, so the victims still had a certain understanding of the overseas situation.

When Zhou Zhong heard that young man's words, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart. The natural disasters in the Ming Dynasty have caused many people to dislike the Ming court. This is definitely a disaster for a country.

In fact, such extreme ideas as that young man's were not uncommon among the crowd. At least Zhou Zhong heard many people yelling at the court for their lack of morality, which made such a good person like Wang Lun suffer from prison.

Compared to Zhou Zhong who has been listening to the reactions of people around him, Wang Jinxuan has been anxiously looking in the direction of the city gate. Since leaving Songjiang that day, she has never seen her father again. Now her father has been imprisoned for such a long time , she was eager to see her father's current situation with her own eyes, but to her disappointment, the prison car for escort had not appeared for a long time.

Zhou Zhong was listening to the discussions of the people around him while observing the surrounding environment. After all, in Songjiang City, there were not a few people who knew him. For example, diagonally across from him, there was a group of people dressed as scholars standing there. Wang Lun saw him off, among them were Li Zheng, Zheng Jing and Zhang Kuang. Fortunately, he was wearing makeup now and there were so many people around him, so he was not noticed by the other party.

Waiting until it was almost noon, suddenly heard a commotion from the city gate tower, and then two columns of knights galloped out from the city gate. Flying domineeringly and looking extremely majestic, they are the legendary Jinyiwei, and after these Jinyiwei who opened the way came out, a prison car also slowly drove out from the city gate.
