Li Kangfei rushed back to the tax inspection department, without saying a word, he went to the horse corridor to lead his war horse, and then flew all the way to the city, from the dock to the county government in the city, riding a fast horse for half an hour, but he didn't dare to delay for a moment.

The queen of the Ming Dynasty, the princess Zhaohua of the Chu State in the past, suddenly came to Quanzhou, even a small official like him, and he also knew that this was not a trivial matter, not to mention anything else, the identity of this person alone was enough to crush people.

It is rare to ride a horse like this, Li Kang only feels that the inside of his hips is grinding and hurting, but at this time, he can't care about it.

Ningfu is a first-class family in Quanzhou, ordinary people may think that Hu Yi, the county guard of Quanzhou, is the boss of Quanzhou, but a small group of people who really know the inside story understand who is the real master of Quanzhou.

Ning Zhiwen, the head of Ning's generation, is the real No. 1 person in Quanzhou. The wealth is incomparable, even if it is placed in the entire Great Chu, the Ning family is also the top group, of course, this is because the Ning family is clumsy, after all, a large part of their money comes from the sea, and this part cannot be exposed. If it is just wealth, the past generations of Quanzhou county guards did not take it to heart, the so-called broken county order, the destruction of the door Yin, only rich but powerless, that is a fat lamb, can only be slaughtered. In addition to wealth, the Ning clan also controls the underground forces of the entire Quanzhou, and among the official mansions, the Ning clan is infiltrated by the thousands of holes, the iron-clad yamen and flowing officials, and the high-ranking officials come and go, but those officials are all natives, and it is much more useful to hold these people in their hands than to control a county guard.

The army and sailors stationed in Quanzhou were all fed by Ning's money, and more importantly, many people knew that at sea, Ning's had an invincible fleet, of course, this was relative to the current Quanzhou sailors

The last governor of Quanzhou Yin came from a wealthy family in Chu State, and he didn't know the form of Quanzhou, so at the beginning of his tenure, he set his sights on Ning Zhiwen, who was like a fat sheep. But when he sharpened his knife and was about to go down, he was greeted by pirates, who landed in Quanzhou and swept several counties under Quanzhou. And above the central court, several bigwigs also suddenly joined forces and launched a fierce offensive against his family, and it was not until this time that the ambitious Fu Yin understood the root of the matter, but unfortunately, it was too late for him to understand at this time

Bowing his head and being soft, his family lowered their noble heads in front of the Ning family, and he himself also wrapped up and returned to Shangjing in a gloomy manner, and his career collapsed, and his future was completely buried.

And this term of the county guard Hu Yicai, obviously learned the painful lesson of the previous county guard, after taking office Yin Shi, before he went to the yamen, he went to the Ning Mansion first, and the head of the Ning clan, Ning Zhiwen, had a good time, and lived in the Ning Mansion for three days, and then he went to the government with satisfaction, and really took office as his county guard.

In the past few years, this Hu county guard has not cared at all, and the most he does every day is to drink and have fun, from time to time to convene literati and scholars to chant poems and have fun, and occasionally rise up to go out to inspect, and what he does is to call on everyone to repair bridges, pave roads, and help the poor.

The county keeper was not in charge of affairs at all, but Quanzhou did not become a mess because of his lazy government, but was much more prosperous than before, and as for the pirates who came to make trouble during the previous county government, he did not even see a shadow in his office.

The people are full of praise for this county guard, after all, this county guard has done a lot of good things. The officials under the rule of Quanzhou naturally like this boss, as for the capital, as long as they see that Quanzhou is calm and the tax revenue is stable and rising, then the performance appraisal is naturally leveraged, and it is on the top every year.

This county guard is already the second in Quanzhou, and he was supposed to be promoted to the court to go further, but Ning is unwilling to leave such an informed and interesting county guard, and Hu Yicai himself does not want to go to the capital. Now the money he gets in a year is a huge amount, and as for the court's money, well, it can still be used as pocket money.

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, the county keeper did not reunite with his family in the palace, but took his family to the Ning Mansion to pay New Year's greetings to Ning Bowen.

After the second year of junior high school, he naturally wants to sit in the government office, waiting for his subordinate officials to come to him to pay homage to the New Year, although Hu Yicai does nothing in Quanzhou, but if he doesn't like that official, then this official must also roll down as far as he goes, who let him be both an official and a good fellowship with Ning Bowen, but as soon as this county guard speaks, some officials can only resign and don't do it immediately, otherwise the end will be even worse.

Therefore, every year on grand festivals such as the New Year, the birthdays of his wife, son and daughter, our Hu Junshou likes it very much, because such a day is also the happiest time for him to receive gifts.

Li Kang has been in Quanzhou for many years, so he naturally knows the habits of this county guard, so when he entered the city, he did not go straight to the mansion, but went straight to the Ning mansion by hitting a horse.

Ningfu's house in Quanzhou City covers an area of thousands of acres, which means something in the prosperous and populous Quanzhou City, which is naturally self-explanatory, Ningfu's house is more magnificent than the county government, and it is many times more magnificent.

Turning over and dismounting, seeing the guards standing at the door with their heads held high, Li Kang straightened his clothes, strode over, clasped his hands into fists and said: "This brother, please report it, Li Kang, the tax inspector, has urgent official business to ask to see the county guard." ”

The guard rolled his eyes and looked at Li Kang, the small tax inspector naturally didn't put it in his eyes, when Li Kang stuffed a piece of silver into his hand, he nodded: "The county guard seems to be drinking happily with the head of the family, I can't see it, I can only pass your words to the housekeeper." ”

"Brother Lao!" Li Kang thanked him again and again, and the Ning family's guards were not something they could offend casually.

A moment later, a person appeared outside the gate, looking at Li Kang angrily. "Lord Li, on the first day of the Lunar New Year, what great official business can you have, you want to rush here?"

"Second housekeeper, there is really a big matter that needs to be met by the county guard!" What appeared in front of Li Kang was not the Ning family's housekeeper, but just a steward of the outer house, but even such a character was something Li Kang couldn't afford to provoke.

"The county keeper is not available, and I am not available to report for you." Of course, this housekeeper knows Li Kang, and he also knows who he entrusted to get to the Tax Inspection Division, and the second son in front of him is about to lose power, Li Kang's backstage, He Ying is naturally not better, I am afraid that this Li Kang, the official, is about to come to an end, the Tax Inspection Department, I don't know how many people want to go in with red eyes.

In his heart, he decided that Li Kang knew that something was wrong, so he came to see the county guard in the name of official business, and his real purpose was probably to see Master Ning! He sneered in his heart, these officials, in order to keep their official positions, but they did everything they could, and after being the deputy guard of the tax inspection department for a few years, they should be full, and if they know each other, they can get out of here, and they can keep the income of the past few years, if they don't know each other, I'm afraid that there will be nothing left.

Now Li Kang's performance is naturally the kind of person he doesn't know, and such a person is naturally not worth paying anything for him.

Seeing that the second steward was about to leave, Li Kang was startled and stepped forward to grab him.

The second steward was furious and was about to have a seizure, Li Kang had already lowered his voice and said, "Second steward, there is really a big event, Zhou Li, General Zhou is back." ”

Li Kang only dared to say Zhou Li, not Princess Zhaohua. But just Zhou Li was enough to make the second steward shocked. You must know that when Zhou Li was still in Ning's family, his second steward was also unattainable, and Zhou Li ran away inexplicably, and Master Ning was very angry and punished some people.

"How dare this dead one-eyed dragon come back?" The second steward immediately stopped.

"Not only is it back, but it also brought back a three-story battleship, brand new, and a lot of heavily armed sailors, it seems that the person who came is not good!" Li Kang deliberately made the matter more serious, the previous one was indeed true, but there was no one who came well, Zhou Li was very kind and pleasant.

Zhou Li came back, and he also brought a battleship, and the second steward was also Ning Zhiwen's henchman, who had also fought for his life at sea back then, so he naturally knew what the three-story battleship in Li Kang's mouth meant.

"Wait." He dropped a word and ran inside.

Li Kang exhaled deeply, he was finally able to enter this door.

This time he didn't wait long, and after a while, someone came out again, but this time it was not the second steward who came out, but the chief steward of the Ning Mansion.

"Come with me!" The chief steward glanced at Li Kang, spit out three words, turned around and left, and Li Kang hurriedly followed.

Zhou Li's return like this is naturally a big deal for the Ning family. Although the banquet in the lobby was still going on, Ning Zhiwen and Hu Yicai had already arrived in a quiet room on the side.

Although these two people are used to seeing big storms, the news brought by Li Kang still made the two people who were sitting firmly jump at the same time.

"What? Empress Daming, Princess Zhaohua has arrived outside Quanzhou Port? ”

"Lord County Guard, Master Ning, now I'm afraid that they have entered the port, they are coming with a three-story warship, and the small boat of the Tax Inspection Department dares to stop it, and now I am afraid that they have been guided into the port." Li Kang said honestly.
