In addition to governing the city of Jiangning, Daqi Gyeonggi Province also includes the six states surrounding Jiangning. It includes two states in the south of the Yangtze River: Taiping Prefecture (administering Wuhu, Dangtu, Lishui) and Danzhou (administering Danyang, Wujin,

Jintan), three states in Jiangbei, namely Hezhou, Zhenzhou and Yangzhou.

After coming out of Tingshan Villa, Song Zheng immediately returned to Yousi Yamen, and sent Cai Yong to take two people to Yuan Rong to get relevant materials about Taiping Prefecture and Danzhou. The pretext was that Song Zheng wanted to understand the situation in the capital.

Starting from the two states in the south of the Yangtze River, Danzhou was added, naturally to confuse the ears and eyes.

Yousi, the original Dark Eagle, naturally has a general database, but the collection only contains some relatively significant changes and information. This information is obtained after screening by the various commanders below. Song Zheng wants to know the detailed materials, but it is

Go to Yuan Rong for more comprehensive information.

After dispatching Cai Yong, Song Zheng began to look through the materials obtained from Duan Ren. Duan Ren had already handed over the materials about the original Dark Eagle in the states north of the Yangtze River, which was regarded as advance payment to Song Zheng. When Song Zheng sent Meng Guan and

After Lian Yu investigates clearly, Duan Ren will bring out the materials from the states south of the Yangtze River.

Song Zheng selected one or two people who had committed more serious crimes at each step as targets for death, and three to four as targets for adjustment. He then transcribed their crimes and prepared to send them to Shui Ding who had already rushed to Henan Road.

Shuiding has been away from Jiangning for six or seven days, and is preparing to quickly inspect various roads in Jiangbei in two months. Accompanying him is Mu Yu, and eight sergeants selected from the Forbidden Army. These eight sergeants are all from Korea.

In the Zhenzi camp under Kui's control, in order to support Shuiding, the little emperor naturally couldn't let him take charge alone.

Song Zheng read very quickly, marking down the key points while reading. In less than an hour, he finished flipping through all the materials and couldn't help but sigh. Dark Eagle was better in the past few years, but since Huang Song took charge of Dark Eagle,

There has been a significant increase in illegal activities in various states, and a lot of corruption has emerged.

Song Zheng could guess the reason for this, which was lack of funds. After being in contact with Muyu for so long, Song Zheng also knew that Dark Eagle's funds were secretly provided by everyone in Jiangnan headed by the Ji family.

Donate, and this became the bargaining capital for everyone in Jiangnan and Huang Yuandu.

Especially in recent years, Huang Yuandu and everyone in Jiangnan have become increasingly difficult to deal with, and the amount of related donations has also decreased. If Dark Eagle wants to maintain its establishment, it has to get involved in the industrial and commercial industry, engage in trafficking operations, and extortion, and this is very easy

breed**.

The people below must get Huang Song's acquiescence to do anything. Bribery and acceptance of bribes are inevitable. From this point of view, Jiang Huan's bribe of 40,000 taels to Huang Song is just the tip of the iceberg. Huang Song is in charge of the entire Daqi

The money collected by the country's Dark Eagle is probably hundreds of thousands of taels.

There are two brothers, Huang Song and Huang Yue, one is low-key and the other is flamboyant. In terms of assets, Huang Yue is probably not as good as his younger brother.

Putting away his thoughts, Song Zheng was about to transcribe the materials he had marked when Cai Yong came back, his face extremely solemn.

"Master, Commander Yuan said that there is a lot of information in Danzhou and Taiping Prefecture, and it is inconvenient to transport it. Either let me hire two carriages, or ask the master to go there in person."

"Oh?" Song Zheng chuckled, then thought for a moment, "That's okay, I haven't been to Yousi in Gyeonggi Province yet, so I just want to go and have a look."

"Sir? Are you really planning to go?" Cai Yong said in surprise. In his view, Song Zheng was the dignified supervisor of Yousi and the de facto leader of the entire Yousi. Yuan Rong said this, clearly deliberately making things difficult.

"Commander Yuan is a beauty." Song Zheng said with a smile, "If you can meet a beautiful lady, you should run some errands."

"Yes! I'll arrange the arrangements." Cai Yong responded, turned around and went out.

When Song Zheng arrived at the courtyard, he discovered that Cai Yong had mobilized thirty soldiers. In addition to a few of their guards, there were also people selected from the three hundred people.

"Why do we need so many people? It's not like we're going to fight." Song Zheng said with a smile.

Cai Yong hurriedly replied, "I'm afraid of that person..."

Song Zheng waved his hand, "No, just bring three more people to follow me."

"But..." Cai Yong was still hesitating, but Song Zheng had already gone to the outside first.

Cai Yong had no choice but to take three people and follow closely.

Yuan Rong's stronghold was in the southwest corner of Jiangning City, four or five miles away from Yousi Yamen. Song Zheng did not take a ride, but strolled along the street. Since Yousi Yamen can be made public, it naturally has uniform official uniforms. However, officials

The uniforms have just been reported to the Weaving Bureau and have not yet been issued. Song Zheng usually wears a white gown, like a scholar. Cai Yong and others are all wearing black servant clothes. They are not attracting attention while walking along the way.

A quarter of an hour later, Song Zheng and others arrived in front of a large courtyard. Cai Yong took the initiative to knock on the door. Immediately, the door opened and two big men in well-dressed clothes came out. One of them saw Cai Yong and let out a muffled voice.

asked, "Why is it you again?"

"Damn it! Mr. Song is here, why don't you get out of the way!" Cai Yong shouted rudely. It seems that Cai Yong didn't get along well when he came just now. Naturally, he didn't get along with Song Zheng this time.

What scruples?

The two big men looked behind Cai Yong and saw a scholar holding a folding fan, looking at them with a smile. He looked familiar. It turned out that these two men had followed Yuan Rong to hunt down Song Zheng, but they both

quilt

Song Zheng knocked him to the ground. One of them had his nose broken by Song Zheng, and it still looks a bit collapsed. The other one was a big man with a black beard who was hit in the eye socket by Song Zheng with an elbow, and there was still a faint trace on his eyebrow bone.

of scars.

The two big men also saw Song Zheng clearly, and their expressions couldn't help but change. When Song Zheng went south, Yuan Rong took six Dark Eagles to take action, allowing Song Zheng to escape. This is something that the two of them will never forget. Now, although Song Zheng is mature,

It took a while, but the two men still recognized his appearance. The "fugitive" suddenly turned into his immediate boss, and the two guys looked extremely ugly.

The two of them looked at each other, then raised their hands together, "Brother, please pay homage to Mr. Jianzheng."

Song Zheng couldn't help but dumbfounded. These people were not accustomed to their official status, and the words they spoke were nondescript. They couldn't even say the word "humble position."

"Two brothers, lead the way and beg for the world to survive!" Song Zheng said with a genuine smile.

The word came to both of them: Smiling Tiger! Back then, Song Zheng was so bookish that he deceived them into being proud and underestimating the enemy, and they suffered a big loss. Now, although he seemed kind, he killed a great commander while talking and laughing.

He is a ruthless character. The two of them were trembling in their hearts. Is this Lord Supervisor coming here in person to take revenge for what happened back then?

Under the guidance of the two people, Song Zheng entered the yard. From the layout point of view, this is a yard with two entrances. The front yard is an open space with a radius of two acres. Except for a few mulberry trees on the edge of the yard, there is no other vegetation, and some are just

There are some stone locks, weapon racks and the like, which look like a training place.

Entering the main hall, Song Zheng was surprised. It turned out that there was nothing in the hall except a table and chairs on the left and right sides. There was not even a calligraphy or painting on the surrounding walls, and there was only a portrait of Guan Gong hanging in the middle.

.Clean and spacious, this is Song Zheng’s feeling.

Shaking his head slightly, Song Zheng sat down on a chair. After a while, the black-bearded man brought in a pot of tea and two teacups, and poured them for Song Zheng respectfully.

Song Zheng smiled and nodded. He did not touch the tea. Instead, he turned around and looked at the portrait of Guan Gong. This was a silk painting. On it, Guan Gong was holding the Qinglong Yanyue Sword, standing tall and heroic. However, the style of his armor

, but it was painted in the style of a general from the Qi Dynasty. From Song Zheng's point of view, it looked quite funny.

After a while, there were footsteps at the door, and a beautiful lady appeared in front of her. She was clearly armed, but she had a calm air, just a little cold age:url(img135165892916312602094-393620306522

6089272.age:url(img135165892916312602094-3936203065226089272.png)'span is none other than Yuan Rong. Behind her is a pretty maid wearing light pink clothes.

"I've met Mr. Song!" Yuan Rong cupped her hands towards Song Zheng with a very standard posture.

Song Zheng returned the gesture and said, "Commander Yuan, please take a seat."

Although Song Zheng wanted to chat with Yuan Rong, but seeing her cold face, he immediately lost interest and asked directly, "How much information does Commander Yuan have on the five states of Gyeonggi Province?"

"A lot!" Yuan Rong's voice was cold. Song Zheng's mouth twitched, and he thought to himself, Yuan Rong is so beautiful, but she looks like an ice pimple. Does that old boy Muyu like this type? Maybe it's cold on the outside and hot on the inside.

, it has a different taste.

Since this sister Yuan didn't want to be polite, Song Zheng didn't waste any words, "Can you take me to see you?"

"Can!"

"Let's go!"

"Okay!" After saying that, Yuan Rong stood up and walked away.

Song Zheng smiled bitterly and followed up.

On the right side of the front yard, there is an archway leading to the backyard. At the door, Yuan Rong stopped, turned around and glanced at Cai Yong and others. Song Zheng understood, "You guys wait here for half an hour.

Come out as soon as you are inside.”

Cai Yong hesitated for a moment, but then he accepted the offer.

Yuan Rong didn't say a word, turned around and walked forward. There was no sway in her walking posture, but she looked a bit heroic. On the contrary, she looked like the pretty maid, with her hips swaying slightly, like a girl.

Song Zheng curled his lips and turned his gaze to the screen wall in front of him. There were many morning glories circling and lush.

Turning around the screen wall, a burst of flower fragrance hit my face, and I had a panoramic view of the backyard. The flower pond, bamboo trees, and small pavilion were very similar to the original Fengzhu Garden, and looked very elegant. Song Zheng secretly thought, this is where a girl should live.

place.

Song Zhengsao stopped and took a deep breath, "This is a wonderful place. The wind blows into the bamboo and adds charm, and the water shakes the flowers and spreads their fragrance. Not bad! Not bad!"

"This way!" Yuan Rong turned around, said coldly, and stepped forward again. The maid turned around and looked at Song Zheng. Seeing Song Zheng's helpless look, she couldn't help but cover her head slightly.

corner of mouth.

The three people walked through the incense path and came to the west wing.

"Wen'er." Yuan Rong called out and gestured towards the door. The pretty maid named Wen'er took out the key from her sleeve and unlocked the door.

Entering the door, I saw more than twenty bookshelves inside. There was a piece of white paper affixed to the bookshelves, with the words "Hezhou Liyang", "Taipingzhou Lishui" and other words on it. On the inside, there was a

The door leads to another room.

"These twelve rows of bookshelves are all arranged by people from the state and county. The four bookshelves inside are arranged by age. In the other room, materials from Jiangning City are stored. Whatever you want to check, you can see for yourself. Wen'er, let's go

." After Yuan Rong finished speaking, she was about to go out.

"Wait!"

"Master Song, do you have any other instructions?"

"Make a pot of tea."

"No tea here, keep it dry."

Song Zheng rubbed his nose and said helplessly, "Okay. But it's too dark here, so we need some candlelight?"

Yuan Rong hesitated for a moment, "Wen'er, go get a candle."

Wen'er quickly glanced at Song Zheng and ran out with a smile. Yuan Rong stepped to the door, turned around and said, "Sir, please be careful with the candle, don't burn anything!"

Song Zheng looked at the cold beauty, and felt a little angry in his heart. He was about to say something sarcastic to her, but he saw her sleeves moved slightly, and a white thing shot towards Song Zheng.
