At this time, Mrs. Chen opened her eyes, her eyes were dull, and she was in pain and confused.

She never thought that she would become Li Yan's forbidden body, imprisoned here, and endure Li Yan's torture every night.

Fortunately, Li Yan did everything he promised her, and the Chen family was protected to a certain extent.

Li Yan came to Nanhuangchengsi, and Zong Ze was drinking tea.

Li Yan came in and looked at it. Seeing that only Zong Ze and Chen Ju were cold in his eyes, he turned to smile and said, "What wind? The governor of Zong was blowing to our house in the middle of the night?"

Zong Ze put down the teacup without saying much nonsense, saying, "Grandmaster Lin is coming, and there are still several colleagues in the court."

Li Yan paused with a smile, and then he smiled more and more, saying, "Mr. Lin's poems and essays spread throughout the world. I have always wanted to ask in person for advice, but I have no chance. I didn't expect to meet them on this Jiangnan West Road."

Ask Mr. Lin for poetry?

Chen Ju's face remained unmoved and he sneered in his heart.

What qualifications do you have to ask Mr. Lin for advice if you are a guy like Li Yan, that is, when he is a man in Hongzhou Prefecture?

Zong Ze didn't care about Li Yan's nonsense and said, "I will check all the cases in Nanhuangchengsi now, and I will have all the evidence and evidence."

"No problem." Li Yan sat down opposite Zong Ze with a smile and shouted: "Come here, bring the things over and ask Governor Zong to take a look."

‘Are you ready?’ Chen Ju knew that Li Yan was not in a hurry.

Seeing this, Zong Ze said, "Huang Zhongcheng of the Censorate will arrive soon. The Nan Censorate will be established as soon as possible. Those involved in corrupt officials' unlawful ethics will be transferred to the Nan Censorate. Other crimes will be transferred to the Hongzhou Prefecture Inspection Department, and then they will sue the Nan Dali Temple."

Li Yan was displeased and said, "Governor Zong, the Imperial City Office has always been arbitrary. Why do you need to go around so many circles?"

Zong Ze said lightly: "Everything has something to rely on, so is the Nanhuangchengsi."

Li Yan was not afraid of these people. None of the people he caught were guilty, and he would not be too much to kill a hundred times.

However, if these people escaped, the "evidence" included all the proceeds of the house search, and he would lose a lot!

"I need to ask the official for instructions." Li Yan sat upright and said in a faint tone.

Zong Ze ignored his excuses at all. Seeing Si Wei coming in one box after another, he said, "You can talk about these with Xianggong Lin tomorrow."

Chen Ju looked at the boxes and said inwardly: Good guy.

I'm afraid I've read these files in the boxes for several days and nights.

"Mr. Lin... can't care about the Imperial City Department." Li Yan looked at Zong Ze and said. However, his tone was a bit weaker than before.

A big man like Lin Xi suddenly appeared in a small yellow sect, and he didn't have the courage to fight head-on.

Zong Ze stood up straight and said, "Since you have prepared thoroughly, I won't look at it. In the past few days, you will be searching the house and arresting people. Please stop the incident. Mr. Lin waited before and after he arrived, so don't have any more trouble."

Zong Ze finished speaking and was about to leave.

Li Yan followed two steps and said, "Governor Zong, I heard that some people still refuse to come? Do we want to do something in our family?"

"unnecessary."

Zong Ze left quickly, not a last resort. He didn't want to deal with someone like Li Yan at all.

Seeing that Zong Ze was not very proud of him, Li Yan looked a little bad, but he couldn't say anything more.

Zong Ze left the Nanhuangcheng Division and was about to get on the carriage, he suddenly turned around and said to Chen Ju: "You go to the Governor's Mansion now. Hongzhou Prefecture has been on guard for the past few days, so there must be no mistakes!"

More and more big shots are coming. If there are mistakes and even more injured people die, then Jiangnan West Road will really explode.

Chen Ju knew the importance of the matter and said in a stern manner: "Yes, I'll go now."

Zong Ze then got into the carriage and thought about it.

His control over Jiangnan West Road was extremely weak, or in other words, under the ancestral system of Congcong's checks and balances, and the fact that officials at all levels were overwhelmed by the century-old Shen Ke, the influence of the court was also very small.

Two days later.

Lin Xi and Huang Lu arrived at Hongzhou Prefecture as scheduled and arrived at Zong Ze's temporary governor's yamen.

Zong Zejing accompanied him to sit down and briefly talk about the tea. He reported to Lin Xi about the situation on Jiangnan West Road and Hongzhou Prefecture, especially the big and small things that have happened recently.

Huang Lu sat opposite Zong Ze, showing a serious look on his face.

Xing Shu, Shen Kuo, Liu Zhiyi, Zhou Wentai and others are all here, and I will add one more sentence occasionally.

Lin Xi always looked very majestic with a blank face.

After Zong Ze finished speaking, he said, "Are you planning to sort out the officialdom first?"

Zong Ze said seriously, "This is the right government and people are harmonious, but the government is not harmonious, and people are ineffective, so things are difficult to accomplish."

Huang Lu responded and said, "The Governor Zong's approach is the same as the court's thinking."

Lin Xi said: "Don't just imitate it. Kaifeng Prefecture's experience is worth learning from, but it is necessary to adapt to the times and targeted measures."

Zong Ze leaned over and said, "What Xianggong Lin said is that Xiaguan and others are considering it, and will use more comprehensive means to comprehensively promote the reform and reform of Jiangnan West Road."

At this time, Shen Kuo couldn't help but answer and said, "I remember that the Kaifeng Prefecture pilot project was a little bit ahead and not fully expanded. Jiangnan West Road is several times more complicated than Kaifeng Prefecture. It is too difficult to fully expand, right?"

Lin Xi and Huang Lu also looked at Zong Ze.

The little Hongzhou Prefecture has done so many things. If it is fully opened, I don’t know how many chaos will happen and how many people will be given.

Zong Ze expressed his serious expression and said in a deep voice: "Xiaguan believes that Jiangnan West Road is the point, and the entire Jiangnan is the surface. If Jiangnan West Road is cautious and takes every step forward, Xiaguan may miss the overall situation."

Huang Lu's heart was trembling and nodded slightly.

The people who can be favored by the officials are indeed extraordinary. He never expected this perspective.

Lin Xi said: "It's very good that you have this height. The reform and restructuring of Jiangnan West Road is to speed up. Other routes will be slower by one year. Let's see the situation of Jiangnan West Road before making a decision. You must open a good head. On behalf of the Zhengshi Hall and the Grand Duke, I will give you the most firm support. In addition to money and grain, the impeachment of officials at all levels of Jiangnan West Road will be decided by you. Regarding your impeachment, the official means: stay at the central government and not send it."

When Zong Ze heard Lin Xi mention Zhao Xu, he immediately bowed and said, "Thank you, my uncle and the Grand Secretary and the Political Affairs Hall, thank you for your trust!"

Zong Ze did not say anything big, but he was calm and firm.

Lin Xi looked at him seriously for a moment, looked at Shen Kuo and Xing Shu, and said, "What do you think about the Nan Censorate, Nan Dali Temple, Nan Guozijian, Nan Taixue and many other newly established yamen?"

Shen Kuo and Xing Shu were stunned, and Lin Xi said it very suddenly.

Not placed in Hongzhou Prefecture, but in Nanchang County below?

The two looked at Huang Lu, and saw that his expression remained unchanged, thinking that this might be the intention of the court.

Shen Kuo hoped that his Imperial College and the Imperial College would stay away from political struggles. He was the first to express his opinion, saying: "The officials agree."

Xing Shu thought about it and could also judge the many benefits of building Nandali Temple in Nanchang County, saying: "The officials have no objection."

Seeing this, Lin Xi said, "Tell me about other things, especially the Chu family."

Everyone looked terrified, their eyes swept across Zong Ze and Zhou Wentai's face.

What happened to the Chu family involved gentry, Imperial City Division, the Yellow Gate in the Palace, and subsequent revenge, and they arrested and searched the house.

Even though Zhou Wentai was prepared, he still bowed uneasy and said, "Go back to Xianggong Lin, the case of Chu family, Nanhuangcheng City has investigated it very clearly. They have all pleaded guilty. They have confessed many things..."

Huang Lu interrupted him and said, "The case happened in Li Yan, Nanhuangchengsi and Chu family. Now Li Yan and Nanhuangchengsi arrested and searched the house. Don't you think there is anything wrong?"

Even Cai Bian's disciple, Huang Lu was not ashamed of face.

Zhou Wentai suddenly didn't know what to say later.

Huang Lu raised a very critical issue. Li Yan and Nanhuangchengsi, who should avoid suspicion, are victims and sentencers.

Zong Ze made a statement to relieve the siege and said, "The torture room of the governor's yamen has not been built yet. The inspection department of Hongzhou Prefecture has been working with the Nanhuangcheng Department to handle the case together. The subordinates have ordered the Nannanhuangcheng Department to hand over the case files and prisoners to the Nancisitai and the Hongzhou Prefecture Inspection Department."

Huang Lu glanced at Zong Ze.

Lin Xi took everyone's expressions and said, "Since the seventh year of Yuanyou, to be precise, after the officials took power, all the major events that occurred on Jiangnan West Road must have a clear definition. This definition cannot be achieved by the court or the governor's office. Unless the officials have pardoned, they must go through a complete judicial process. Do you understand what I mean?"

"The official understands."

Zong Ze, Liu Zhiyi, and Zhou Wentai bowed quickly.

What Lin Xi said was actually the court's request.

The crowd continued to talk, discussing the big and small things on Jiangnan West Road, and finalizing many things.

The focus of their discussion gradually turned to tomorrow's "conference".

This situation is extremely rare for a meeting of all officials on Jiangnan West Road.

This conference was not only the appointment of Lin Xi to represent the court to police Zong Ze, but also a special opportunity for Zong Ze to establish authority and identify the officialdom of Jiangnan West Road.

Everyone, talking to each other, talked until midnight. If it weren't for tomorrow's conference, they would have had to discuss it all night.

The next day, early in the morning.

The temporary governor's yamen was extremely busy, with tables placed in the yard and nameplates arranged.

The governor's yamen also went in and out, informing people from all walks of life and preparing various things.

And more people left the inn and rushed to the governor's yamen.

There are eleven prefectures and more than thirty counties on Jiangnan West Road, but more than 60 people have come, and some people have "taken leave".

Because in addition to the prefectural prefectures and county magistrates, there are also some powerful figures, and some Su Lao from Jiangnan West Road.

Lin Xi, Li Kui, Huang Lu, Xing Shu and other Beijing officials were sitting in a small room, discussing various things, inside and out, almost talking freely and taking everything into consideration.

"I'm here for a short time, and everything should be accelerated."
