"Brother Youxuan turned out to be at a big banquet. He was rude and rude when he came down to the table."

While he was talking, a middle-aged man had already come over with the help of the servants of the Huang family. Of course, the servants of the Huang family were bowing to persuade him, but the person who came was a serious court official. How could they dare to stop him? Besides, they had never seen such a guest. The owner had already refused, but he was stunned and ran into it. They had no choice but to lure Huo Weihua over.

Hovey has an outstanding image, with a prominent tall figure among northerners, a square face, a slightly white face, thick eyebrows and big eyes, and a beard with a long chest. He looks so handsome that it makes people like him.

Since he was visiting a private house, Hovey only wore a Taoist robe made of blue cloth, a silver belt around his waist, and a pure scarf on his head, looking even more graceful as if he was a god.

Compared to Choi Chengxiu's gloomy aura and two triangular eyes, Ho Weihua's appearance is much better.

However, because he broke in by himself, Huang Daozhou's face was of course not good, and the people present were not welcome, and the atmosphere was quite awkward for a moment.

"It's really a last resort to this." Huo Weihua understood in his heart, so he simply pulled a chair and sat down, moving quite freely and generously.

As a result, Huang Daozhou was not angry, so he said with a cold face: "Fang Xiang's birthday is still a while, and it seems that Lord Huo doesn't have to be so anxious."

"It's not for this matter..." Hoveyhua said: "I believe you all know what happened today?"

"I know." Huang Daozhou said coldly: "We are not blind, we are not blind,"

Hovehua shook his head and said with a wry smile: "It's not the matter of the old slave's death... This matter is not a big deal. Everyone will be happy and it's over. Don't take it seriously."

This person is well-informed and is at the highest position among the people present. Everyone was stunned at once. Unexpectedly, the top-level person actually had such views and opinions.

Lu Xiangsheng agreed quite well. There is no need to pay attention to the death of the old slave too seriously, that is, it will be over if you are happy. There should not be too many changes in the overall situation.

"Now Liaoxi and Dongjiang are waiting for news." Huo Weihua continued: "We estimate that they are the eighth son of the slave chief, commonly known as the Four Beile Emperor Taiji succeeded to the throne as the new khan. This person is very popular among the Eight Banners of the Donglu, acts very well, and is brave in wars. There is no more news, but as long as this person succeeds to the throne, the Donglu will not have a big trouble, and the death of the old slave will not be very hindered from the overall situation."

Lu Xiangsheng couldn't help but say, "If Dongjiang can really raid Tangchi, it may be one of the changes."

"There is an explanation in the western part of Liaoning." Huo Weihua said: "The one who raided Tangchi was the merchant army of Huoji and set out with Dongjiang. The news on Dongjiang was unclear, and we probably were true."

"What?" Lu Xiangsheng was shocked when he heard this, and a look of shock appeared on his face.

"There are people in Dongjiang?" Huang Daozhou was also surprised. The group of people in front of him had similar expressions.

This is also a very sad thing. In fact, Hutchison's existence on the grassland was only taken after he captured Lin Danhan and Chahar's tribe. Many news had been ignored before.

Hutchison's garrison in Thirteen Mountains was also discovered, but not many people were interested.

As for Hutchison's existence in Kuandian and Dongjiang, as well as a series of wars in Taiwan, fewer people know and are interested in it.

There is Zheng Guochang covering up in Taiwan, which is because the upper central government is really uninterested in Taiwan and does not regard Taiwan at all.

The Ming Dynasty is now full of holes. In January of the sixth year of Tianqi, western Liaoning was defeated in western China. Then in May, the Wanggongchang explosion broke out again. Then in June, a large-scale locust plague broke out in Shandong, Henan and other places. The number of people affected reached millions. The old methods can only be used to provide relief and exemption of some taxes to provide relief. Then there is the flood in Jiangbei, which is also extremely large.

The emperor had to issue an edict after a series of disasters, and it was a matter of no need. If it were not necessary, the emperor would not do such things that embarrass him.

In August, several major events followed one after another. Hutchison's power completely exploded, the government and the country were terrified, and then the sudden death of Nurhaci was aroused, and the entire capital was filled with joy without any encouragement.

But in the eyes of people like Hoveyah who are truly well-informed at the core of power, this matter in front of him is not only not a good thing, but may also be a belief-making worry.

Huang Daozhou and others were not stupid either. Wen Anzhi said: "If it were really done by the people from Hutchison, they would have made some arrangements in Liaodong for a long time. Zhang Han is really scary."

Wen Mengzhen said: "I say that, this is really terrifying."

Huang Daozhou could no longer care about Huo Weihua hitting the table. He frowned and said, "If this is the case, it means that Hutchison has already planned to target Donglu..."

"Yes. Not really." Huo Weihua said: "There are also secret reports on Dongjiang. They strongly invited Hutchison's people to work together when they attacked the three routes last time. According to Dongjiang News, Hutchison's people were not many. They were mainly those who bought wood and logged wood. However, there were few people and were strong, with excellent armor and many firearms. If they really went to the battle, they would be a big help... Of course, this was before Mao Shuai reported to send troops to kill the old slave. If he knew that the old slave had died suddenly, Mao Shuai would regret this report."

Mao Wenlong's report must have been lurking before the old slave died. He was afraid that Hutchison had been lurking. He had a great ambition and was eager to get rid of the blame. Hutchison bought wood in Pi Island and Kuandian areas, nor did he build ships in Pi Island and Denglai and Tianjin areas, and local officials did not report related to it, indicating that Hutchison's wood was not used in the north. Since this is the case, it is better to mention it briefly, so as not to get out of trouble after a sudden accident.

As for not reporting before, it was before Lin Danhan.

After Lin Danhan was captured, the government and the country were terrified, and Mao Wenlong had to take action, otherwise if something happened, the court would probably punish him severely, and it was not impossible to lose the position of general.

A general and military town that is equal to an independent vassal state, coupled with the Hutchison that made the court quite nervous, once it is linked together, the court would rather not have Dongjiang than allow Mao Wenlong to collude with Hutchison on Pidao.

With this report, and some clues, the court can confirm that the person who attacked Tangchi at night is probably not from Dongjiang, because there was no dispatch before, and only about a thousand soldiers dispatched by Dongjiang. This was reported by Tangbao. Mao Wenlong did not send Needing or generals to send Needing to report. These more than a thousand soldiers were just going to harass them, saying that they could raid the old slaves, and none of the big bosses in the court believed it.

Mao Wenlong himself was also blamed for bragging. He was used to bragging and others did not trust him. If there was not so much bragging history before, as soon as the report was released, there would probably not many people analyze the records of Dongjiang's Tangbao and the dispatch of troops in clues. There were too many dark history in the past, and the report directly caused people to doubt it. Then it was clear that it was true that Dongjiang launched a night attack, but the corpses killed were everywhere and the losses were heavy. The generals who led the troops were also an unknown general, which could not be compared with the situation where the heavy generals of Dongjiang were launched together when the three routes attacked.

As a result, the imperial center was actually even more nervous because he never expected that Hutchison's penetration of Dongjiang would be quite powerful.

"In this way, there is nothing to be happy about." Huang Daozhou said with great concern: "Go away from the front door and tigers enter the back door. Besides, the wolf has not been removed yet. This year is another year of disaster. Similar to the past, there is also the incident of Wang Gongchang. The court has not yet cheered up to clean up the administration and eliminate future troubles!"

The big clear-cut fact is too serious. Huang Daozhou seemed to have heard what Lu Xiangsheng and Wen Anzhi just now, and at this time he took the opportunity to say it, embarrass Huo Weihua.

"It's true that it's hard to get rid of the trauma, but so what? I can only treat it slowly." Huo Weihua was not angry, nor did he mean to deny it. It would be meaningless to pretend to be like this tonight, and he was afraid he would be driven out by Huang Daozhou on the spot.

"Mr. Huo is afraid there is something else?" Huang Daozhou was not stupid. It was not worth his trip to Dongjiang alone, but the news about the Hutchison Merchants Army.

"Yes." Huo Weihua said in a weird tone: "There is another thing, quite strange. The cabinet had an urgent meeting for this, but it was not necessary. Later, Gu Shoufu sent someone to call me and discussed for a long time. To be honest, I didn't understand what happened..."

"What the hell is it?" Huang Daozhou saw that Ho Weihua was hesitant and did not make any noise.

This is a great man who dared to confront him in person under Chongzhen's power. There is no need to say that he has a fierce temper, and everyone present understands it.

"It's a strange thing." Of course, Ho Weihua also understood that he couldn't keep it behind his back. In fact, he didn't want to keep it in the dark, but this incident had a big impact on him and he didn't come back to his senses for a while.

"Zhang Han and Zhang Wenlan wrote a memorial in the name of the commander of the seal of the Ming Dynasty Chengwei and Zhenluwei, saying that the achievements had been completed and the Northern Barbarians were surrendered. He said that he had finished his work and the Northern Barbarians surrendered. He said that he wanted to send Lin Danhan to the capital to offer prisoners. Second, he asked to resign himself and sent someone to return the seal. Oh, in fact, there is still a third thing, and the most important thing. Zhang Wenlan said that he planned to rest for a while, and he worked very hard in the past few years, so after resigning, he would not ask about the affairs of the Northern Barbarians and hand it over to the officials elected by the Northern Barbarians. Hutchison only cared about business. Zhang Wenlan would only care about business in the future, but only care about military and political affairs. He himself would return to Xinpingbao's ancestral home to live with his wife and children, and would usually entertain himself with poetry and wine."

"By the way." Huo Weihua said again: "Zhang Wenlan also mentioned specifically that he likes fishing and plans to build a thatched cottage on the Baiyang River outside Xinpingbao."

"Fishing?" Huang Dao Zhou Zhiqiao said with a glaring eyebrow: "Jiang Shang was eighty and was waiting for King Wen of Zhou. What fish did he catch?"

He is indeed a smart man at the grandmaster level. Although he didn't say itchy at all, he felt almost the same.

The people present also had the same impression. Of course, Zhang Han fished very well.

Some people remembered Fang Congzhelai, who was also fishing in Huzhou. He heard that he had gained a lot. Local gentry students often received fish caught by Fang Xiang and praised him.
