    "Master Bu Tang!" Hai Rui stood up and saluted.  This is the headquarters of the imperial envoy located in Suzhou Prefecture, and Hai Rui is also one of the imperial envoys.  According to the practice of the Ming Dynasty, local officials were not allowed to leave their posts without authorization.  Hai Rui left Huating this time to investigate the case.  Of course, the general imperial envoys are selected from the two capitals, and Hai Rui, the small seventh-rank magistrate of Huating County, will not be selected this time.  However, because the nature of this case was a corruption case, and Hai Rui had a clean reputation, and under his rule Qingping, he had indeed solved several difficult cases, which made Shangfeng praise the case, and of course Xu Jie recommended him.  In the end, Hai Rui became one of the imperial envoys in this corruption case, cooperating with the chief prosecutor from the capital to investigate the corruption case in Jiangnan Weaving Bureau. ?????????????????????????? It¡¯s a good thing that the Jiangnan Weaving Bureau is in trouble and full of shit, so it didn¡¯t come to plot with Cheng Zhong to seize the quick fat of Huating¡¯s silk business.  Otherwise, with the domineering and greedy nature of the Suzhou Manufacturing Bureau, how could they stay out of the matter and let Cheng Zhong make huge profits?  "Haizhi County is exempt from courtesy!" Hu Zongxian said.  Hai Rui was an imperial envoy and did not need to salute Hu Zongxian. However, after all, Hu Zongxian was the highest official in Nanzhili and Zhejiang, and it was not office hours, so Hai Rui still expressed his respect for Hu Zongxian.  Hu Zongxian is from Huizhou. He is tall, thin, and has gray hair on his temples. If he were walking on the street in casual clothes, no one would have thought that this half-century-old man was actually the highest military commander in the Zhizhe area. It was he who used a trick to eliminate Wang Zhi.  .  At this time, Hu Zongxian looked sad, even a little worried.  "The main department here has very bad news that we want to tell Haizhi County." Hu Zongxian said.  Hu Zongxian was branded as Yan Song, but Hai Rui was recommended by Xu Jie. Although not many people knew about this, Hu Zongxian, as the highest official of Zhizhe Province and a dignified second-rank official of the imperial court, it was certainly impossible for him to do this.  have no idea.  Nowadays, although the first and second assistants appear to be harmonious on the surface, there are countless secret conflicts.  Therefore, although Hai Rui and Hu Zongxian were in the same city, apart from meeting Hu Zongxian once as required when they first arrived in Suzhou, this was their second meeting.  "Your Majesty, please give me your instructions." Hai Rui's expression remained unchanged and he was extremely calm.  Hu Zongxian pondered for a moment, then said slowly: "We just received a military report that more than two hundred Japanese pirates suddenly appeared in Huating County!" "What!" Hai Ruihuo stood up.  "When did this happen?" Hai Rui asked.  "Two days ago!" Hu Zongxian said with shame.  Two days were enough for the Japanese pirates to loot Huating, and then left gracefully.  "When did the Lord get the news?" Hai Rui asked aggressively, with a hint of accusation in his words. Although Hu Zongxian was a second-rank official and his rank was much higher than him, Hai Rui was already  He is not a person who flatters his superiors. Such a major thing happened under his rule. It is impossible for Hu Zongxian to get the news so late. Only telling himself now is suspected of deliberately concealing it.  "I'm ashamed to say that the news just came from our headquarters!" Hu Zongxian said with an ugly expression.  He had already heard about Hai Rui's difficulty, and it seemed that the rumors were indeed true. He did not fear or cater to himself as the governor at all. This may be a sign of being strong without desire.  "The headquarters has sent Suzhou guards to rescue Huating at full speed. There is no need to worry too much in Haizhi County." "Master, I will forgive you for commenting. The army must be properly cleared." Hai Rui said.  The Japanese pirates appeared in Zhizhe. As the highest military commander, he had an unshirkable responsibility. What's more, he only knew what happened two days ago now.  Suzhou Prefecture is very close to Songjiang Prefecture, so the news should not be so blocked.  Then there are only two possibilities. The first army is incompetent and has no way of detecting the Japanese pirates' plunder. The second army has obtained the news, but due to various reasons, it did not feed back such important news to Hu Zongxian.  Whatever the reason, the military has a very serious problem.  That's why Hai Ruicai said that the army should be cleaned up.  Of course, Hai Rui is just the magistrate of Huating, so saying this is a bit beyond his duty.  "However, Hu Zongxian did not blame him, but nodded.  Hu Zongxian still appreciated Hai Rui's ability to discover the problem in such a short period of time.  "Haizhi County doesn't suspect that the headquarters deliberately concealed it?" Hu Zongxian talked a bit too much today.  Hai Rui smiled slightly and said, "Hai Rui believes that Lord Bu Tang can't do such a thing." Hai Rui's belief made Hu Zongxian very emotional. The two of them belonged to two different factions, and they should be distinct from each other.  Although Hu Zongxian belongs to the Strict Party and has bad moral character, he has a clear conscience. This is why Hai Rui is willing to believe in Hu Zongxian.  Hu Zongxian also realized that he had talked too much today. He saluted Hai Rui and turned to leave.  But after walking a few steps, he turned around and said, "Haizhi County, our headquarters still has something we want to do."Teach.  I heard that Japanese pirates appeared under the rule, but Haizhi County can still sit still like this. I wonder what the reason is?  "Although Hu Zongxian has urgently mobilized Suzhou guards to rescue Huating County, it is hard to say whether it will be in time. Hai Rui, as a parent officer, is not anxious at all. Is it because he does not take the life and death of the people under his rule into consideration, or is it Hai Rui?  Arrangements have been made, are you confident? If it's the former, Hu Zongxian will look down on Hai Rui, but a parent-level official turns a deaf ear to the life and death of the people. No matter how honest he is, he is just a person seeking fame; if it's the latter, Hai Rui is now in Suzhou, and he  How to be confident? So Hu Zongxian was very curious. Hai Rui turned his eyes to the direction of Huating County and said slowly: "The person I rely on is one person.  " "Relying on one person?  "This time Hu Zongxian was even more surprised. Who could make Hai Rui rely on him so much, and even think that he could guarantee Huating's safety in front of more than 200 Japanese pirates? "Who is this person?  Can Zong Xian be heard?  "Hu Zongxian said. Hai Rui said: "He is Cheng Zhong, a student of Xiaguan.  The official believed that even if he were in Huating, he would not be able to do better than him.  " "Cheng Zhong?  "Hu Zongxian has never heard of this person's name. If Hai Rui mentioned the famous elders such as "Tang Shunzhi", Hu Zongxian would still understand. But what Hai Rui was talking about turned out to be a little-known Cheng Zhong. He secretly remembered in his heart  He gave the name, and then said: "Haizhi County is so sure, that's the best.  I really want to meet Mr. Cheng Zhong if I have the chance.  " After saying these words, Hu Zongxian really wanted to say goodbye. He turned around and strode out of the account. Looking at his slightly stooped figure, Hai Rui also felt a little emotional! "Master!  "This time it was Hai Rui who took the initiative to stop Hu Zongxian. "What else is going on in Haizhi County?  "Hu Zongxian turned around and asked. Hai Rui pondered for a moment and then said slowly: "What Hai Rui wants to tell the minister is that when the water is clear, there will be no fish. As long as you are a man with a clear heart and no loss to the people, even if you say a few words  If you go against your will, it will not harm your virtue!  Your Excellency does not avoid life and death, and your protection for the people along the coast is visible to the people, and the emperor should also be able to see it.  " Hai Rui's words seemed to have no beginning or end, but Hu Zongxian understood. Hu Zongxian is not only worried about the Japanese pirates in Huating County. His greater worry is because a person has died, and this person is Zhao Wenhua. " Hu Zongxian and Zhao Wenhua  The relationship between them was extraordinary, and it was only through Zhao Wenhua that Hu Zongxian got on the big ship of Yan Song. Now Zhao Wenhua was demoted by the emperor's order, and finally died of inexplicable intestinal rupture. The descendants of his greedy money will have to repay it from generation to generation.  This punishment is not light, and the emperor's hatred for Zhao Wenhua is evident. So whether Hu Zongxian, who has such a close relationship with Zhao Wenhua, will be implicated, many people are speculating, and some people in Zhejiang Province have even begun to refuse to follow Hu Zongxian's orders.  He thought his life was short. Hai Rui's words were meant to comfort Hu Zongxian. After all, although Hu Zongxian was friends with Yan Song and Zhao Wenhua, he was doing good things to fight against the Japanese and bring peace to the people, so he was still a good official if someone else said this.  , Hu Zongxian was not surprised, but it was Hai Rui who said this. Such a person is famous for being strict. Hu Zongxian didn't know whether his purpose of saying this was to comfort or to be sarcastic. Hai Rui smiled slightly and said, "Speaking of which,  The official was still influenced by my student. He once told the official: If they had to choose between a capable corrupt official and an incompetent honest official, the people would definitely choose a capable corrupt official.  If it weren't for him, Huating County's tax law reform might have been aborted.  " Hu Zongxian did not expect that Hai Rui would have such a high opinion of Cheng Zhong, and Cheng Zhong's knowledge was also recognized by Hu Zongxian. " In this case, Hu wants to meet this student from Haizhi County!  "This time Hu Zongxian did not call himself "Honbu Tang", but called himself "Hu", which was obviously a close relationship.
