"Sister Hu, you're a ninth-grade female official now. Moreover, you're a fifth-grade official by the Emperor's side, and your father is a hundred-man of the Jinyiwei. Why don't you want to leave the palace and get married?"”
The woman called Sister Hu pinched the little palace maid's toot little face and scolded angrily,"You miss a man? Then be your palace maid well. You can leave the palace in the future!”
"Yes, yes, I'm saving money now, Sister Hu!”
Zhu Zhanxin whispered to the young eunuch behind him,""Do you know who that Sister Hu is?”
The little eunuch was the Emperor's subordinate and also Eunuch Zhang's subordinate.
He knew half of the palace maids and eunuchs.
Therefore, when he heard the country supervisor mention this Sister Hu, he was shocked.
He raised his head and saw a small courtyard in the palace.
He immediately lowered his head and replied respectfully,"Reporting to the Imperial Supervisor, it's female official Hu Shanxiang. Her father is Hu Wenwu of the Embroidered Uniform Guards, and her sister is Hu Shanli of the Imperial Palace.”
Zhu Zhanxin was stunned.
Was it her?
Wasn't this the Empress Hu of the future?
However, looking at her appearance, age, and personality, she did not match the one in his memory at all.
He was not scheming at all, treated people kindly, and came from a wealthy family.
It was simply a world of difference!
"Hu Shan Xiang? How old is she?"
The young eunuch replied,"It's the prime of life."”
Twenty?
In ancient times, she was also a big girl!
However, he remembered that these palace maids entered the palace at the age of 14 or 16.
If they were all ninth-grade female officials now, they had probably been in the palace for several years.
The young eunuch seemed to have seen through the supervisor's thoughts and deliberately fawned over him."Reporting to the Imperial Supervisor, female official Hu Shan Xiang entered the palace at the age of sixteen. Ever since she entered the palace, she has never taken a single step through the palace gates.”
"You're quite smart, kid!" Zhu Zhan praised this little eunuch.
Observing one's expression was indeed a necessary talent for the people in the palace.
Right at this moment!
"Who's at the door? Come out!"
Suddenly, a delicate voice came from the courtyard.
It was over!
He had been discovered!
Zhu Zhanxin thought about it and walked in.
Because he could already hear footsteps approaching.
Wouldn't it be awkward if he was caught?
Moreover, it was so embarrassing to be sneaky.
Hu Shan Xiang saw a graceful young man walk in.
Dressed in white, he looked like a white jade scholar who had walked out of a painting.
He had an outstanding temperament and was gentle, but there was a trace of arrogance and nobility between his brows.
His entire body exuded the aura of a disciple of a great clan!
With just a glance, Hu Shan Xiang had already given this young master an evaluation in his heart.
Young Master Qian Qian, gentle as jade.
Seeing that this young master was only sixteen years old, Hu Shan Xiang frowned and scolded,""Which royal relative are you? Although this place isn't a forbidden area in the harem, it's not far from here. It's just a wall away. You'll be dragged to prison like this. Don't harm your sister.”
It seemed that Hu Shan Xiang had taken Zhu Zhan Xin as the younger brother of some Empress.
The few palace maids were also curious, sizing up Zhu Zhan Xin.
Their eyes were filled with stars.
As for Hu Shan Xiang, he couldn't help but take a few more glances at Zhu Zhan Xin.
There were either eunuchs in the palace or guards who did not move and could not say a word.
Now, out of nowhere, such an elegant young man suddenly appeared.
Why didn't he provoke her to take a few more glances!
Zhu Zhanxin was about to explain!
However, the little eunuch behind him probably wanted to show off too much. He scolded Hu Shan Xiang and the few palace maids opposite him,"How dare you! This is the Imperial Supervisor's grandson, why aren't you kneeling and bowing?”
Zhu Zhan Xin sighed in his heart!
Fine, it was meaningless!
As expected, Hu Shan Xiang and the few palace maids were scared out of their wits.
They did not dare to doubt it at all. They directly knelt on the ground, bowed their heads, and bowed in unison."Greetings, Country Supervisor!"
Hu Shan Xiang lowered his head in disbelief.
The legendary country supervisor who killed without blinking an eye, who even dreamed of killing…was actually such a young man, and he was so good-looking!
It was completely unrelated to Butcher!
Zhu Zhan Xin walked forward and stood in front of Hu Shan Xiang. He said softly,""Raise your head."
Hu Shan Xiang raised his head in fear. His big, watery eyes could not hide the panic.
She was like a frightened kitten.
"Stand up."
"Yes."
Hu Shan Xiang timidly stood up, lowering his head, not daring to look at the country supervisor in front of him.
Zhu Zhan Xin reached out and gently pinched Hu Shan Xiang's chin.
Hu Shan Xiang's heart skipped a beat. He was shocked again.
At the same time, she pursed her lips and slowly raised her head.
Her pair of watery eyes were filled with shyness as she looked at the young man who was right in front of her.
"Sister Hu? Is that what they call you? You're very beautiful. I like you very much."
……
Three days later.
Zhu Zhanhao received a new memorial from Yu Qian.
This one had been sent over in an urgent manner.
Zhu Zhan opened it and was instantly furious."Jinling is still the old capital, yet you dare to openly defy the new policy? -- You're courting death!"
In the letter, it turned out that Yu Qian's implementation of the policy was very smooth.
However, after Jiang Nan arrived at Jinling.
He had suffered unprecedented resistance!
After settling Suzhou and Hangzhou, Jinling had become a tough nut to crack.
Jinling happened to be the most prosperous place in Jiangnan.
The local officials relied on the fact that they were all officials of a small imperial court, and each of them was extremely arrogant.
Not only did he shirk responsibility for Yu Qian, but he even kept stalling Yu Qian and finding all kinds of excuses.
They didn't cooperate and handed over the household register. Even the matter of Yu Qian meeting some merchants was avoided by these dog officials.
Yu Qian couldn't carry out the work in Jiangnan and Jinling!
Yu Qian posted a notice saying that the Jinling tax branch was to be established, and merchants had to register.
Those who did not register could not do business.
Violators would be executed immediately!
However, this group of merchants also learned from the strike in Beijing.
Now, Yu Qian was working on solving the problem of Jinling.
Yang Shiqi, who was also in the royal study, took the memorial from Yu Qian and frowned.
However, when he saw the countermeasures that Yu Qian was going to take later.
Yang Shiqi said," State Supervisor, don't be anxious. Since Lord Yu has already thought of a way, we can wait for the time being. Jiangnan is the last place left, so we can't rush it. Moreover, what Lord Yu said is right. Jiangnan is not like the capital, and Jinling is even more special. He can't go on a killing spree there, so I agree with Yu Qian's suggestion!”
"Don't worry, Grand Secretary Yang. I just don't like it, but I trust Yu Qian more.”
"Hehe, this old minister knows that it is my great fortune to be a talent in governing the country.”
"Grand Secretary Yang is too kind."
……
Jiangnan, Jinling.
Yu Qian only brought a thousand men of the Jinyiwei with him today.
He was upright and even deliberately released a message:
Yu Qian was going to pay a visit to the shopkeeper of Jinling's largest silk merchant association today.
At this moment, Yu Qian was very clear in his heart.
You can't learn from the imperial grandson here.
Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to leave Jinling.
