Su Jin is indeed a little annoyed, these grandsons always spread rumors to themselves unrelentingly, and the last time they went back to Bagong Mountain to suppress bandits, it was obviously a great achievement, and they were forced to be participated, so that even the emperor sent someone to investigate; This time, it is obvious that someone is going to make a fuss about capturing Feng Jingyao and Mo officials in Yangzhou again.

It's good this time, what kind of accidental injury to civilians, this is Zhu Shiyong taking care of face, it is estimated that when it reaches the court, it will become a grass and a disregard for people's lives.

"Master Su, don't worry, no matter how strong the rumors are, they are always rumors, if you say that the emperor doesn't believe it, even we will never believe it; But then again, having done such a big thing, even if a few people were killed by mistake, it was excusable, and it was not worth making a fuss. Zhu Shiyong continued to provoke Su Jin, and his words were all about the rumors.

Su Jin suddenly smiled, originally he was still scolding, but suddenly it was cloudy and sunny.

"It's still the Lord of the Mansion who is reasonable, and the rumors stop at the wise, it's just that some dogs and things are blushing when they look at the envoy who has made a meritorious contribution; As for what you said that it is not a big deal to accidentally injure a few civilians on an errand, I can't agree, I have hundreds of laws in the Great Song Dynasty, and none of them say that you can waste the lives of civilians for official business, I believe that Zhu Zhifu is just a casual comforting word, if you really have this kind of thought, sooner or later you will have to fall into trouble. ”

Zhu Shiyong was quite depressed, he was going to use some radical words after Su Jin's anger, but he didn't expect to be caught by Su Jin for the omission in his words.

Since the little fox didn't take the bait, then he couldn't pinch it, Zhu Shiyong was sleek and wishful, and immediately changed his words: "That's that, just said it casually, but I didn't really think like that, fortunately, Master Su knew that this was not the intention, if you meet any other treacherous person, you will definitely report my words, haha, haha." ”

Su Jin laughed and said: "Lord Fuzun has a lot of concerns, who would be bored enough to talk about things, and stab the despicable villain in the back." ”

Zhu Shiyong hurriedly echoed: "Exactly, there are indeed fewer and fewer people as upright as Master Su. ”

The two opened the topic, and Zhu Shiyong said with a smile: "Lord Su, this mansion came this time, one is to visit the adult, and the other is to ask the adult to check our grain affairs in Luzhou. ”

Su Jin waved his hand and said: "This time I just went back to my hometown for vacation, but I didn't come to do an errand, I was really choked after two months of food work, and I just wanted to have a good rest at the moment, and I didn't want to mention official business." ”

Zhu Shiyong smiled dryly: "That's not possible, what this government is looking forward to is the day when the envoy Su returns to Luzhou, the lord is very good at food affairs, although the government is proficient in government affairs, but he is not very shrewd in dealing with businessmen, and this is also the strength of the envoy." ”

Su Jin secretly scolded in his belly, this old dog pointed at Sang and scolded Huai for mentioning his business background, and humiliating himself quietly, which was despising himself from the bones.

Of course, Su Jin is not a fuel-efficient lamp, but he is too lazy to play these mouth games with Zhu Shiyong, so he said bluntly: "I understand the words of Lord Fuzun, the price of flour in Luzhou City is stable, and the people do not have the appearance of famine. Zhu Zhifu is a capable official, and there are disturbances everywhere, but his Luzhou is immovable, and he must have spent a lot of effort to clean up the grain affairs; Even if I went to Luzhou to handle food affairs at the beginning, I am afraid that it would not be as good as the prefect. ”

"It is an honor for the government to be praised by the envoy of the Su, and it can be regarded as a gift from the government to the Lord Su without letting the envoy work hard and return to his hometown for the New Year with peace of mind."

Zhu Shiyong was complacent, he was going to show off in front of Su Jin, and he wanted Su Jin to admit that Luzhou's grain affairs were good, and the subtext was: , everything is in order here, basically nothing has anything to do with you, spend your New Year obediently, get out of the way after the New Year, don't want to play any crooked ideas.

"If all the parents and officials were as capable as Zhu Zhifu, anxious about what the court was anxious about, and thought about what the court thought, then the envoy would have been able to return to Beijing a long time ago; Zhu Zhifu is a good hand in political affairs, maybe he will be promoted in a few days, please take care of it in the future, Su Jin is just starting out, and many things can't be done like the prefect to take precautions, and I will have to ask adults for advice in the future. ”

"Where, where, politely." Zhu Shiyong laughed proudly and took a sip of tea.

Su Jin probe said: "After the New Year, I will go to Beijing to resume my life, when I was in Yangzhou, the saint asked Ouyang Zhongcheng to pass the decree with me, asking me to inspect the grain affairs on Huainan Road, write a document and report it, so although the grain affairs of Luzhou have been done properly, there are some procedural things to go; For example, checking the records of the grain, looking at the grain in the official warehouse, etc., is also convenient to estimate whether the grain can last until the next summer harvest, whether the court needs to allocate assistance, and so on; These are all limited by duties, and I will ask Lord Zhu to give convenience when the time comes. ”

Zhu Shiyong smiled and said: "That's natural, when the time comes, I will order someone to fully cooperate with you, and the Cangsi officials will be on call." ”

Su Jin smiled and said, "Then thank you, sir." ”

Zhu Shiyong said: "Ouyang Zhongcheng sent someone to ask me to go to Yangzhou to see him a few days ago, this government was busy with food affairs at the time, I really couldn't spare it, I was going to visit him after the annual vacation, but he suddenly sent someone to send a letter to say that there was no need to go, so now there is nothing to do; It's also very free today, why don't we find a restaurant and have a drink from this house? I know that there is a restaurant that is not inferior to Hefeng Lou. ”

Su Jin smiled and said, "I guess it's the Drunken Immortal Building." ”

Zhu Shiyong was stunned and blurted out: "How do you know? ”

Su Jin said with a smile: "It was General Long Zhen, the deputy commander of the guard Ma Army, who told me, that when he came to Luzhou, the prefect was hospitable, invited him to eat and drink in the Drunken Immortal Building, and prepared a lot of programs for the occasion, isn't it?" ”

Zhu Shiyong was a little chilled, and said with a dry smile: "The Beijing official is here, and it is right to do what the landlord wants, what else did he say?" ”

Su Jin laughed and said, "Guess! ”

Zhu Shiyong swallowed and foamed: "How did this house guess?" ”

Su Jin said in a low voice: "He also said that the car dealers on the ground in Luzhou are really strange, and they don't do business, so they just drink the northwest wind empty." ”

Zhu Shiyong hurriedly said: "That's because the car dealer is afraid of bandits robbing. Tribulation, the dragon commander wants to take the official road on land, of course, no one dares to agree. ”

Su Jin said: "That's strange, Long Zhen also told me, and then for some reason, the bosses of the car dealership were suddenly not afraid of being robbed, and they all agreed to rent a vehicle to transport grain to him, this turn is too big, what is the reason to teach the owner of the car dealer to suddenly not be afraid of bandits, it is really strange." ”

Zhu Shiyong smiled dryly: "Maybe the owners of the car dealers want to share their worries for the court, so they take the risk to send each other, Lord Su must not underestimate the consciousness of the people of Luzhou, and there is an elite escort of the horse army, and the people in the car dealers have figured out this section, do they still need to be afraid of bandits?" ”

Su Jin nodded and said: "Maybe it's the reason, but I always don't believe it, and Ma Jun didn't come to Luzhou later, why didn't the boss of the car dealership agree in front of him?" Don't they know that Ma Jun is the elite of the imperial court? ”

Zhu Shiyong said coldly: "How can this government know about this problem?" If you want to ask, you can only ask the owner of the car dealership. ”

Su Jin opened his mouth and laughed: "Naturally, I want to ask, I want to skin them, I'm not afraid that they won't tell the truth." ”

Zhu Shiyong said unhappily: "I'm afraid it's not good, the freedom of buying and selling, whether people want to be other people's freedom, you can't force others." ”

Su Jin sneered: "In extraordinary times, doing extraordinary things, Yangzhou was waiting for food to save lives at that time, to put it mildly, it was to rent a big car for money, even if it was not to give money and forcibly requisitioned, there was no fault; To be honest with you, my priority when I go back to Yangzhou this time is not the grain business, but to find these guys to settle old accounts, here I will say hello to Lord Fuzun first, but don't stand up for them, if they don't delay the grain delivery time, how can they send grain after the snow? How can it be easily robbed by bandits? I almost lost my life in Bagong Mountain. ”

Zhu Shiyong flicked his sleeves and said: "What is the reason, how can the bandits blame the car dealer for robbing the grain?" ”

Su Jin said: "This is my Su Jin's reason." ”

Zhu Shiyong changed his face and said: "Nonsense! ”

Su Jin smiled and said, "Even if it's nonsense, what can it do?" It's a big deal that someone writes to Beijing to sue me again, and it's not the first time I've encountered such a thing. ”

Zhu Shiyong's face was pale, and he left without saying a word.

Su Jin smiled and said, "What? Didn't Lord Fuzun invite the envoy to the drunken immortal building for a drink? ”

Zhu Shiyong spat on the ground with a mouthful of thick phlegm, got into the sedan chair, and walked away.
