"Senior, it's a pity to lose martial arts, but if you lose your life, wouldn't it be even more cost-effective? You should just spend your martial arts."

Li Xiangwan laughed, "I have lived at such an old age and have long been indifferent to life and death. The Li family in Jinling is no longer there, so what's the use of this martial arts? What's more, I still have a great revenge before I can take it. It's better to use this skill to break up with my enemies."

Fan Xiaodao asked: "The Demon Cult Hidden Envoy mentioned by the senior is Qu Moucai?"

Li Xiangwan frowned and showed a contemptuous look, "Qu? He is worthy of it. He is just a lackey. The Demon Cult hidden envoy is someone else. Moreover, he was a member of the Li family in Jinling. This matter is long and involves my Li family's secrets. You don't know."

Fan Xiaodao looked solemn when he walked out of Dangyang School.

Li Xiangyang has aspirations to die. I am afraid that it will be difficult for us to see him in this life.

In addition to the Li family's sword book, he also had an additional letter of recommendation. This was a letter written by Li Xiangwan to the Langya Pavilion leader Zhong Xianxing. He had promised to recommend Xiao Dingdang to Langya Pavilion. With this letter, Xiao Dingdang's matter should not be a big problem. Besides, there is also the relationship between Zhong Xiaoxian, the young master of Langya Pavilion.

Thinking of this person, I guess I’m having fun in the capital now. After leaving the capital, it’s been more than half a year since Niu Dafu hasn’t even written a letter, so I guess he’s so happy.

In the next few days, Fan Xiaodao practiced swords in the yard every day. Although he only had sixteen pages, he had sixteen sets of wonderful sword techniques, and it was written by Li Qingcheng himself. It was impossible to compare with the intermittent stone tablet or rubbing sword score.

However, no matter how you look at the sword girl picture on page 16, you can't look like that day, like a woman in the painting. So I first chose the two sets of sword techniques, namely the Divine Machine Sword Technique and Qianjue Sword Technique. The sword moves are easy to learn, but if you want to integrate them, you need to practice diligently and turn the tangible sword moves into a subconscious reaction. Fortunately, Fan Xiaodao is extremely talented and has the help of the Sword God Sword Technique. It took only four or five days to practice the Divine Machine and Qianjue Sword Technique.

Fan Xiaodao did not hide his own secrets, so he gave the sword technique to Zhao Xing. Zhao Xing looked it through and returned it to him, "Although the sword technique is exquisite, it is not suitable for me." After obtaining the inheritance of the Cross-Break Sword from the temple, his martial arts skills have become increasingly versatile, while the sword technique is light and elegant, and it is not as pleasing to Zhao Xing.

Zhao Xingdao: "But, if you learn, you can practice swords with me."

"Why didn't you ask me to practice before?"

"Because you're good!"

It was soon early July, and the summer in Jiangnan was hot and humid. Zhao Xing, who lived in the north all year round, was a little uncomfortable. On this day, the two of them fought in the yard and were unable to separate them, while several constables were helping each other. They were stunned and Luo Cheng hurriedly ran in.

"The imperial envoy has arrived!"

"Where are people?"

Luo Chengdao: "The prefect ordered me to inform the two of you and go to the dock to greet you."

Fan Xiaodao and Zhao Xing changed their official uniforms, came to the prefect's office, met with Xie Yu and others, and then went to the Governor's Office. At this time, nearly 100 officials gathered in the Governor's Office, from the third, fourth, seventh, and eighth ranks, with different ranks. There were other prefectures and prefectures, as well as counties from various places. It can be said that almost everyone in the entire Jiangnan officialdom came.

The imperial envoy went on a patrol, representing the emperor, and everyone dared not be negligent.

At the Governor's Office, under Xu Ting's leadership, the group drove towards the north pier of the city. The red carpet was paved at the entrance of the yamen, and along the way, there were water-filled streets and loess cushions, and everything was ready.

The officers and soldiers were in the way, and all the idle people were irrelevant.

Fan Xiaodao whispered to Zhao Xing: "What a great official power!"

They have also been imperial envoys, why are they not treated like this?

Zhao Xingdao: "The imperial envoy went on a patrol and patrolled the world on behalf of Your Majesty. Although he could not determine his life and death, if he was unhappy, his career path would basically be overturned."

Yes, they may not be able to accomplish things, but it is very simple to do something bad. As long as they say a few bad words in the memorial, they can basically sentence this person to death. When they arrived at the dock, they saw more than a dozen ships, including the imperial envoy's official ships with the Emperor Huanglong Banner, and the temporary requisition of cargo ships. The imperial envoy traveled, and nearly a thousand people followed him!

Gongs and drums are as famous as the ones.

At noon, someone shouted, "The imperial envoy is here!"

Xu Ting led all officials in Jiangnan to kneel down and salute, "Xu Ting, the governor of Jiangnan and the left censor, led the four prefectures and 18 counties in Jiangsu Province to meet with the imperial envoy!"

Four cannons.

Under the escort of the officers and soldiers, three people walked out of the three official boats with the Yellow Dragon Banner.

He Jin, the censor of the Censorate, Du Jinliang, the young minister of Dali Temple, and Murong Tiech, the Jinyiwei.

The three of them got off the boat and slowly came to the shore. They saluted the last official boat. A father-in-law shouted: "The eunuch Zhao Quan, the chief eunuch, is here!"

When everyone heard this, the eunuch in charge of seals?

Everyone knows that the inner court will send people to investigate the case, but Zhao Quan is the number one person in the Sili Supervision Bureau and is the confidant of the emperor. His status in the capital is comparable to that of one person and above ten thousand people, on an equal footing with the chief minister of the cabinet. Unexpectedly, in such a case, the inner court actually sent Zhao Quan to come!

Everyone said in unison: "Meet Eunuch Zhao!"

Zhao Quan smiled and stepped forward, helped Xu Ting up, and said, "No need for such a great gift. This time, the imperial envoy sent by the court, but those three lords, our family just claimed a leave of absence from His Majesty and returned to Jiangnan to visit relatives. Those three are the real masters!"

Murong Tiechui smiled and said, "With my father-in-law being in charge of the overall situation, we are just picking up shoes for my father-in-law running errands!"

Zhao Quan said: "You boy, you want to be lazy again, right? Your Majesty has given you such a arduous task, but you are not going to be cheating. You must investigate and deal with it carefully so that you can live up to your Majesty's high hopes!"

The three of them said respectfully: "We will do our best!"

Xu Ting stood up, and the rest were still kneeling on the ground. Zhao Quan was not in a hurry, and his eyes were patrolling among the officials. Finally, his eyes fell on Fan and Zhao in the corner. Zhao Quan walked in front of the two of them a few steps and helped them up in person. "Captain Fan, Captain Zhao, please get up quickly!"

Now, it was the rest of the people's turn that were stunned.

Pan Niesi, Xie Prefect, and several other prefects were kneeling on the ground. At least a dozen officials of third-rank and fourth-rank present, Zhao Quan didn't even look at them, and rushed directly to the two people. It was impossible to help but guess how these two troublemakers had such a great face? Then he suddenly realized, no wonder they have made the city full of wind and rain in Jinling over the past few months, but they were safe and sound. It turned out that they knew General Zhao of the inner court! Fan Xiaodao said awkwardly: "Eunuch Zhao, the others are still kneeling."

Zhao Quan glanced at everyone, "The weather is good today, let them kneel for a while, it's okay! Alas, you haven't seen each other for half a year, and you two have changed a lot!"

Murong Tiech also came over, beat him up, bowed and said, "Brother Fan, don't be fine!"

You know, in Jinling City, a thousand households of Jinyiwei were enough to make most of the people present unable to take advantage of it. Murong Tiechui, deputy commander of the North Fufu Department of Jinyiwei, actually called him brothers and brothers to Fan Xiaodao! Everyone couldn't help but secretly review whether he had offended the two of them in the past six months, or had to find an opportunity to go to their mansion in the evening.

Xu Ting remembered the rumor in the capital, and when he saw the two of them being so ill-advised to Fan Xiaodao, he couldn't help but believe it a little more.

After the two had a conversation, Zhao Quan said to Xu Ting, "Let them all get up!"

The officials stood up slowly.

Zhao Quan coughed twice and said, "Jiangnan has always been the granary of the world and the money warehouse in the world. This time, he will represent His Majesty in Jiangnan. First, it is for the eyes and eyes of the world to see the customs and humanities of Jiangnan. Second, I believe everyone has heard that something is wrong with the money warehouse in Jiangnan."

Everyone kept watching their breath, and they didn't dare to say a word.

In the past, when imperial envoys went on tour, they would take them back to spend time and drink, and then they would start to do their jobs after they had finished eating and drinking. This time, the head of the inner court got off the boat and started to speak without even a sip of hot tea. It can be seen that this time was unusual.

"The Jiangnan money warehouse is related to the foundation of the Ming Dynasty, the destiny of the country, and the livelihood of the people. There must be no problems, nor can there be any problems. However, some people are unable to tell the truth and take risks to disrupt our court's economy. Such crimes cannot be forgiven lightly!"

Zhao Quan's voice was not loud, but it was heard by everyone, but every word was like thunder.

Could it be that this is the prelude to the beginning of a bloody storm?

Unexpectedly, Zhao Quan changed his subject and said, "Maybe God bless me in the Ming Dynasty. Fortunately, the two constables, Fan Xiaodao and Zhao Xing, were wise and courageous, and were not afraid of the powerful. They arrested the people involved in the case of the Jiangnan Foundry Bureau in one fell swoop, turned the situation in one battle, and rescued Jiangnan from a crisis."

When everyone heard this, the imperial envoys set their tone as soon as they arrived.

Fan and Zhao, this is the rhythm of becoming successful!

Everyone said in unison: "God blesses the Ming Dynasty!"

Zhao Quan told Murong Tiech, "This time Jiangnan's execution, we did not come empty-handed, but brought a big gift to Jiangnan! Lord Murong, send someone to transport the things down!"

Everyone was puzzled. The other imperial envoys came, and they were all places to prepare gifts for them. Why did the imperial envoys come with gifts this time? While wondering, at the time of the order, the other ships docked one by one, and more than a hundred people and four people carried more than a hundred large boxes down from the ship.

A box was three or four feet square, but it didn't look big, but it was a bit difficult for four people to carry it together.

In a moment, there were a hundred boxes in the dock square, neatly arranged in a square array.

The box was opened and filled with copper coins!

Xu Ting was also stunned, "Is this?"

Murong Tiechhui said: "Before leaving Beijing this time, Your Majesty repeatedly reminded that Jiangnan should not be in chaos, and Jiangnan should not be in chaos. As a result, there was a incident of millions of fake currency circulation in Jiangnan. If this matter was exposed, it would probably cause economic turmoil in the entire Jiangnan. This would not be solved by killing a few people. We ministers should share the problems for Your Majesty, and we must find out the problems and solve the problems. So after discussing, we raised millions of coins along the way from Hebei, Henan, Shandong, Anhui and other places to exchange the fake money circulating in the city to protect Jiangnan. However, Governor General, we will lend you this money, but you will have to pay it back!"

Fan Xiaodao suddenly realized.

No wonder at the end of May, the imperial envoys left the capital and walked around the way. It took more than a month to arrive in Jinling. It turned out that they were raising money along the way. However, they did not expect that Fan Xiaodao and Zhao Xing had already solved the problem in advance for these silver exchanged for fake money.

Xu Ting reported the matter of money to Zhao Quan and others.

Murong said, "Eunuch Zhao, it seems that we have been in vain! But where did you get so much money?"

Xu Ting said: "It was all raised by Fan Xiaodao and Zhao Xing. Please let them talk about it in detail."

Fan Xiaodao smiled, "We don't have that much money, but you all know that Jiangnan merchants are the best in the world, and there are always some people who have a passion for patriotism and the people. They made money by the stability and prosperity of the Ming Dynasty. I heard that Jiangnan encountered difficulties, and they all generously donated money to express their support to the court and their loyalty to His Majesty!"

Du Jinliang, the young minister of Dali Temple, said, "It is rare for ordinary people in the city to be so enlightened!"

The censor He Jin said, "Millions of stagnant money are not a small amount. Our group has borrowed it for a long time. Just a few words of yours, you can raise it. I think there must be a problem in it and it should be investigated strictly!"

Yushi He was the one of Princess Taiping. When he was about to come, he was instructed by the princess. In any case, he would lead this matter to the prince Zhu Yan. So as soon as Fan Xiaodao spoke, he caught the loophole and asked back. However, he forgot that among the three imperial envoys, he had the lowest rank. Even if he spoke, it was not his turn to say it.

The origin of money and Fan Xiaodao's behavior over the past few days, the Jinyiwei had already told Murong Tiechhui the news. When He Jin said this, Murong said, "Since that's the case, let's adjust the division of labor. Let's investigate this part by Yushi He!"

Murong said again: "The case of the Mint Bureau and I will investigate Du Shaoqing and I. I will ask General Zhao to lead the overall situation. I wonder if this arrangement is possible?"

Du Jinliang, the young minister of Dali Temple, is a fencer. He does not stand in a line or offend others. He can be said to be an old gangster in the officialdom. This time he went to Jiangnan to get experience value. As for how to deal with it, it is not his turn to come up with an idea. Then he signed a letter, so he smiled and said, "I have no objection."

Zhao Quan smiled, "Our family is here to visit relatives and play, and Lord Murong is looking for work for our family again, which is really not worry-free."

Murong flattered: "Without General Manager Zhao taking charge of the overall situation, we don't have a backbone!"

Zhao Quan glanced at everyone, "Don't kneel down, go back!"

...

Governor's Office.

Xu Ting had already sent someone to clean up the Governor's Office and vacated four courtyards. As the temporary residence of the four imperial envoys, the reception banquet was very simple. Governor Xu Ting, Nie Shi Pan Feng, prefect Xie Yu and other six people accompanied him, such as Fan Xiaodao, Zhao Xing and others, who were not qualified to be on the same seat.

Of course, they were even more happy.

In the afternoon, they began to interrogate everyone.

Governor Xu Ting, Xie Yu, with Fan Xiaodao and Zhao Xing, briefly reported the whole story of the case to the imperial envoys. Of course, they had already submitted memorials before and reported the details of the matter one by one.

The files, personal testimonies and physical evidence that had been prepared by the Six Gate were handed over to the imperial envoy. In addition to these four, the Jinyiwei, the Censorate, and the Dali Temple, they all sent a group of ten people to accompany them. First, they always had their own people to be convenient for use, and second, there were people in each yamen to prevent anyone from confusing the public.
