Wang Tong rarely drinks, but he has a lot of alcohol. The merchant Nie Jin drank too much, and Wang Tong is fine. Listening to Nie Jin's allusion to Jiangnan is also quite interesting.

The Jiangnan mentioned by Nie Jin will not appear in the newspapers and official words of the Jinyiwei. In fact, the Jinyiwei's mastery of the world's love is also gradually weakening with the capital as its heart. When it comes to Jiangnan, it is really too weak.

The Jinyiwei in Nanzhili was in charge of several Jinyiwei Qianhu, and the Jinyiwei Qianhu was established in the time of Emperor Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang.

The thousand households stationed in the Jinyiwei were all appointed by the capital, but in Nanjing, the thousand households in Nanjing were all local Jinyiwei families, and they were also passed down from generation to generation. There were thousands of households in Nanjing. People from Nanjing handed over the alternative list to the capital, and the commander of the Jinyiwei chose one person to serve.

In this way, the eunuchs in Nanjing and the garrison in Nanjing have a certain say. Over the years, the Nanjing Jinyiwei has formed its own system, and it is difficult for the capital to get involved.

Thinking about the influence of the omnipresent families in Jiangnan, it is conceivable what the tendency of the Jinyiwei in Jiangnan is. Naturally, there will be no situation that is unfavorable to Jiangnan to report to the capital.

In fact, the court's understanding of Jiangnan did not rely on these intelligence investigation agencies, but on the return of the eunuchs sent, and even the memorials and memorials in Jiangnan were also important sources of information.

But the same is true for these sources. The wealthy families did not have any conflicts with them. Some things turned a blind eye to them and then passed them.

In fact, for Wang Tong, these things are just anecdotes and interesting things today, and there is no need to worry about them.

The merchant surnamed Nie drank too much and returned to the boat to sleep soundly. Although he arranged night guards that night, they were quiet until dawn.

When it was dawn, there were already many ships on the lake. Nie Jin also got up and said a few words of politeness, then set sail off the shore. However, Wang Tong was not in a hurry. According to the rules of the march, he made breakfast on the sandbank and checked the ship before setting sail.

The boat sailing was so calm that it was boring that the sun was west. When the sun was going to the west, it entered the territory of Nanzhili, and when it was almost dark, it had already arrived near Peixian.

In fact, the ship was still on Weishan Lake, but the waterway became narrower. Peixian set up a private checkpoint to collect some tax and silver from passing civilian ships and cargo ships. After passing Peixian, he walked to Xuzhou for a long time.

Although Wang Tong's fleet was replaced by a civilian ship, he still had to show his identity when encountering such a clamp. Otherwise, if the official boarded the ship to check and saw the weapons and armor on the ship, he had to send troops to arrest him.

In fact, there was no indication of the imperial envoy, but a few people showed the other party the waist tags of the Jinyiwei Baihu. For Pei County, a Jinyiwei Baihu Baihu is already an amazing figure, so they naturally let it go in fear and dare not offend it.

Wang Tong's team was not in a hurry to travel. They stayed in the local area when it was dark. Someone had to go ashore to buy some dog meat. Everyone was having a tooth sacrifice to celebrate at night.

The intelligence packets passed from the capital were impossible to chase along the canal. Pei County was a node. After the ship docked, someone sent the locked iron box to Wang Tong.

In August, the heat in Peixian County was abnormal. The heat did not fade away at night. Wang Tong was too lazy to get ashore, so he just lighted the lights in the cockpit on the boat and read at night.

There is nothing wrong in the capital, and the small debate between the censors and the Qingliu people is nothing more than how to carry out the rewards of the Li family in Liao Town, and whether everyone in the Li family wants to be awarded titles, such a small matter that is not worth mentioning.

Regarding the movements of court officials, it was mentioned that the Zhili Inspector Li Zhi had sent several letters to Zhang Siwei, who was filial to Dingyou in Puzhou. Li Zhi was Zhang Pengwei's favorite disciple. When he fought with Zhang Juzheng's remnants and Feng Bao, Li Zhi was on the front line and submitted memorials to criticize impeachment, which was extremely active.

When Zhang Siwei became the assistant, Li Zhi also received the reward and became the inspector of Zhili. It was a rare real position of power in the northern Zhili area where officials were worthless.

The rules in the officialdom are that people are cold and tea are cold. Zhang Siwei returns to his hometown with sorrow. Li Zhi's side has gone from being flattered like stars and holding the moon to being neglected by everyone. He could have prided himself on his own identity, but now he can only get along with the censors and clear-hearted people, making a name for himself. His relationship with Zhang Siwei is much colder than before. After all, with the relationship between teachers and students, letters and letters are still indispensable, but just a full ritual, there is not much diligence and filial piety in the past.

So Li Zhi's sudden increase in letters was considered abnormal. It is worth mentioning a report to Wang Tong. Wang Tong is just a look. He will not have any impression of him. There are a few people who have the deepest impression of the official, except for Shen Shixing, Zhang Xueyan, Yang Wei, and Wang Lin. As for the people who were not in the Shu, Li Sancai and Gu Xiancheng were Wang Tong paid great attention.

These two men have no backing background, but they have hit and kicked this situation in the capital. What's rare is that these two men know how to make up for the right things and make trouble, but they don't involve themselves too deeply. Every time they have a political struggle, they can get benefits from it and will not cause any disaster.

While reading the newspaper there, I heard someone shouting in the direction of the shore: "Mr. Wu Er is here, please come and ask for a meeting in the Liang family in Pei County!!"

Wang Tong's fleet was docked by the card. As soon as his dozen ships came over, the other ships naturally had to go elsewhere. It seemed that the person who was calling on the shore was facing this side.

When he was asking, Wu Er reported outside: "Master, this person on the shore is an old acquaintance of a villain. He has been doing business on the water for many years and is well-informed. Can the villain meet him?"

Wang Tong paused and said, "I'll go with you!"

It turned out that the person who was called "Master" was Wu Er. Wang Tong was idle, but he changed into a short dress and followed him together.

"It's so good for the master to know that the Liang family's brothers had a meal on the river and lake. They had suffered losses when they were trafficking goods to Jinan Prefecture. The subordinates helped Zhou Quan back. They had a friendship and had sex during the New Year."

"If it's a private matter, I'll come back myself later.

Wang Tong nodded and replied, "He was dressed simply and was much younger than Wu Er's. He looked like Wu Er's entourage. He was also idle and came out for a walk. If the other party talked about his personal friendship, Wang Tong would not have to listen."

The two got off the boat and greeted him. The man who was waiting there was riding a horse and quickly ran over. The man looked dark and strong, with long limbs, and looked at the person who was eating on the water.

"If the young men hadn't seen Angkor, they would have missed it like this."

The man smiled and said something, then went forward to salute. Wu Er was also polite. The man was named Liang Jie, the third brother of the leader of the Liang family. Liang Jie looked at Wang Tong who was on the side, but didn't care much. He lowered his voice and asked, "Second brother is a magistrate this time, right?"

Although the official ship here was replaced by civilian ships, the Liang family knew that the Wu family was working for the Jinyiwei now, and had been working on the Hushang River for so many years. What was the slightest view? Some signs could be seen from the behavior of Wang Tong and his men.

When the other party asked this, Wu Er couldn't understand the answer, so he just nodded in a coward. Liang Jie smiled and hugged Ji and said, "The second brother came to the ground in Pei County. The brothers should have treated him well, but since the official officers who came out, it was not easy to disturb him. My brother told me to say hello to me and brought some local products to offer him. It was really negligent."

"If you guys say that, you guys don't always stay in Pei County. Go to Tianjin Wei to have fun. Then the Wu family will definitely treat you well."

After a few words of politeness, Liang Jie took two steps forward and lowered his voice and said, "Second brother, I have received news here and said that if you walk thirty miles south, someone will attack you on the river."

Wu Er's eyes widened, subconsciously looked back at Wang Tong, and turned around and said, "Walk thirty miles south, it's very close to Pizhou. There are more than 2,000 troops stationed in Pizhou, so how dare they move?"

"The money on the second brother's ship was exposed, and he was targeted by someone in Jining. Now the Clippers are running in front of you, just waiting to take action."

Wang Tong brought a lot of gold and silver. He drank so deep and didn't hold any goods. A discerning person naturally made a judgment. But Wu Er was still puzzled that more than 2,000 soldiers in Pizhou were guarding the salt industry in Lianghuai, and they were quite good. There were actually water bandits who dared to attack there. They were too brave. They could not ask again. Liang Jie hesitated and leaned closer and said, "This group of people who have only been in the past two years. There are many people who have reported to the officials. They have never seen any officers and soldiers suppress them. The brothers who are eating on the water cannot figure out where they came from. Some say it was the officers and soldiers, and some say it was the salt owls in Haizhou. They have a good relationship with the officials. Second brother, you are a fan now, so some things are inconvenient to say."

Wu Er looked at Wang Tong, but asked in a low voice: "Are there anyone staring around here? Come and report it. They noticed the wind and didn't dare to move!"

"They did not do so meticulously. In the afternoon, two ships from Shandong to Jiaxing were overturned. A few people were rescued, saying that a strong man was on the boat and asked, asking where your fleet was going. If there were no one below who had seen the second brother, the younger brother would not have come. The people in Pizhou didn't care about the man and brothers along the way. Half an hour ago, their ship had just passed. I guess they thought the second brother's fleet would have been there. It was a ship from the capital. I wouldn't have received any warning news!"

"Tell me about this brother Liang that after October this year, you must go to the capital once, and you must treat it well."
