Chapter 658 The prefect on the cusp of the waves

The current Fuzhou magistrate is named Hongyi. He is from Jiangsu. He is a Jinshi. He was a Jinshi in Zhejiang. He was later transferred to Guangdong. During his tenure, Cui Hongyi vigorously promoted rural and commercial enterprises. His political achievements were obviously outstanding. After his term, the court originally planned to transfer him to Jiangxi. Later, due to the accidental death of the Fuzhou magistrate Tang Wei, the Ministry of Personnel changed his appointment and transferred him to Fuzhou as the magistrate.

In other words, Cui Hongyi has not been in office for a long time in Fuzhou, and judging from his official status, although he is not as good as Qing Rushui, he is also a capable minister. More importantly, Cui Hongyi is a Jinshi of the Encai Jinshi. He is not only Zhu Yicheng's disciple, but also has no connection with local officials and merchants in Fujian, so in Chen Wuxian's view, this person can be fought for.

Therefore, Chen Wuxian planned to talk with Cui Hongyi first and touch his bottom. If Cui Hongyi did not join the crowd, then the next thing would be much easier with Cui Hongyi's cooperation. After all, at this time, if you use the garrison without obtaining conclusive evidence, who can guarantee that those people will not be vigilant? Besides, if these people collude with each other, it would not be a trivial matter.

Chen Wuxian is a leader of troops. He knows the truth that either does not move or move, and if he wants to move, he will hit a thunderous attack. He does not want to expose his true purpose and trump card because he is not sure. He will prepare for Fuzhou General Bai Hao and obtain the right to mobilize troops. That is to be prepared for the situation, rather than launching it immediately.

The more critical the moment, the more you need to be calm. On that day, Chen Wuxian sent someone to invite Cui Hongyi to pass by the mansion. As for the reasons, Chen Wuxian came to Fuzhou as the parent official of Fuzhou. He was entertained by Cui Hongyi before, but now the matter is almost done. Chen Wuxian will leave Fuzhou in a few days. It is normal for him to ask the other party back before leaving.

In this way, Cui Hongyi happily went to the appointment, but what he never expected was that his appointment was the beginning of a huge shock in the officialdom in Fujian. Moreover, this shock was not only a province in Fujian. With the development of the situation later, the shock almost affected all provinces controlled by the Ming Dynasty, and many people even fell to the ground because of this incident.

On the surface, Cui Hongyi was invited by Chen Wuxian to attend the banquet, but that night, Cui Hongyi left and sat in the sedan chair, his originally smiling round face instantly became cold as ice. Before he came, he never expected that Chen Wuxian would invite him to pass the mansion, and he did not expect that he would suddenly get involved in a storm without any sense of consciousness.

Regarding Chen Wuxian's arrival in Fujian, the whole Fujian only thought that he came to Fujian to return home, and at the same time he was restraining the corpses of the rebel soldiers who died in the battle. Moreover, Chen Wuxian did the same after he arrived in Fujian. Whether it was his work in his hometown or his busy work, it was enough to show that he was doing these things in Fujian.

But Cui Hongyi never expected that Chen Wuxian's reason for coming to Fujian was not as simple as it seemed. When he saw Chen Wuxian asking for Zhu Yicheng's order and the order to mobilize troops, his mind exploded with a rumbling sound, and his eyes were filled with incredible expressions.

Immediately afterwards, Chen Wuxian told him the real intention of asking him to pass by the mansion, and at the same time asked about his position. At this time, Cui Hongyi only felt that Chen Wuxian's gaze at him was like a sharp knife, and his whole body exuded a strong murderous aura.

Fortunately, Cui Hongyi has not been in office for a long time and has no connection with the place. Moreover, because of Tang Wei's accidental death before, those people have been much more restrained these days. After all, a dignified prefect died. Although this matter has been covered up, no one will get better if this matter is exposed due to his own problems. A temporary low-key is necessary, which is also the main reason for their restraint.

Thinking of this, Cui Hongyi was frightened after knowing the truth and felt even more scared about his future. If he continues, as the governor of Fuzhou, he may become the second Tang Wei when he is different from those people in the future.

Cui Hongyi was not a clean official. When he was a county magistrate, he used his rights to seek some benefits for himself. After all, absolute integrity does not exist politically. Even though the court has now increased the treatment of officials, especially the so-called "supporting integrity silver" has made officials' lives much easier.

But there is one saying that is truth, that is, power will breed corruption. Especially as local parents, perhaps in the eyes of court officials, a mere magistrate is nothing, but in fact, as a "Hao Baili", he is in charge of a place and is an unattainable role in the eyes of the people.

Especially now that the business is moving in Daming, there are opportunities everywhere, and some shrewd businessmen’s gains in a year are enough to make people jealous. Cui Hongyi also loves money, but he has his bottom line. The people he makes money never attacks ordinary people because he knows that these hard days are not good at first, and making money from these people is not only unethical, but also prone to accidents. Besides, how much benefits can he get if he scrapes three feet of the ground?

Cui Hongyi has always been those businessmen and emerging factories. It is normal for those who have a lot of interests to take advantage of them. Moreover, Cui Hongyi will not speak out loud, nor will he extort innocently. You should know that he was a Jinshi and has a bottom line as a scholar.

By using stock mixing, secret agents, or other methods, Cui Hongyi made money with great fun. In addition, Cui Hongyi did nothing. As an official, he would provide these people with some convenience and privileges while making money. This would become the result of two-handed and match-up. He took the money for granted, and the person who gave the money was also happy. Both sides took the money and everyone was happy.

If it took a long time, or if there was nothing Tang Wei's previous incident, maybe Cui Hongyi would fall into this mud pit after working as the governor of Fuzhou for a long time. When Cui Hongyi thought of this, he felt a chill on his back and was very scared.

Back at the mansion, Cui Hongyi entered the study with two intimate companions. When he arrived at the study, Cui Hongyi, who was still standing on his waist a moment ago, bent down and saluted the two intimate companionship with a three-point pleasing smile.

"My lords, I'll ask for instructions on how to arrange it now." Cui Hongyi said politely. He is not polite. You must know that these two followers are not his true followers. The followers who had been to the mansion with him have been detained by Chen Wuxian. These two followers are Chen Wuxian's people. No... It should be said that the people from the court were made of the famous Jinyiwei.

The tall one looked at the shorter man beside him first, and then said, "The former lord has already given instructions. Just call someone over and take me over."

"This is OK, then..." Cui Hongyi paused and looked at the short man who didn't make any noise.

The tall man sneered and said, "In extraordinary times, my brother will accompany Lord Cui, is there no problem?"
