Chapter 417

Yan Shifan said that this news could make those vassal kings know, and Yan Song stared at Yan Shifan when he heard it!

"It's true. We don't have to do anything. Those vassal kings can kill Zhang Hao. Even if they can't kill Zhang Hao, Zhang Hao will stare at those vassal kings to clean up, instead of dealing with us!" Yan Shifan looked at Yan Song excitedly at this moment and said, and Yan Song was sitting there thinking when he heard this.

"Dad, this matter can be done!" Yan Shifan said firmly at Yan Song.

Yan Song sat down and thought about it carefully for a while, and said to Yan Shifan: "Don't be anxious about this matter, don't be anxious. Let those people tell the vassal kings that we should not move anything. If we move, it will be troublesome. Zhang Hao is the commander of the Jinyiwei. We have sent people out. Zhang Hao may know it soon, so we should not move now, and we must not move!"

"Okay, but the emperor's imperial edict has put Zhang Hao in danger. Why did the emperor do this?" Yan Shifan looked at Yan Song in confusion and asked.

"I haven't had time to think about this problem yet, but it's really a bit strange!" Yan Song nodded and said.

"Can it be that the emperor deliberately asked those people to deal with Zhang Hao. If those people fail to deal with Zhang Hao, then it is Zhang Hao who deals with them. Isn't that the vassal kings like this this time?" Yan Shifan looked at Yan Song and said,

Yan Song glanced at Yan Shifan, then sat there and thought about it again. After a while, Yan Song said, "There is this suspicion, but it's not sure now. Forget it, no matter what happened, anyway, we won't see each other in the past few days. On the cabinet side, I won't meet them alone, otherwise I will not be able to explain it clearly at that time."

"Yes, dad!" Yan Shifan nodded when he heard this.

Yan Shifan was actually a little afraid of Zhang Hao. Even the vassal kings dared to kill, and there was nothing to do after the killing. If he killed himself, it would be a one-time thing. It would have no impact on Zhang Hao at that time, and then he would be in trouble.

The same is true for other ministers, who are also discussing these imperial edicts. On Xu Jie's side, Xu Jie also prepared to go home while having lunch.

However, several officials looked for Xu Jie, but Xu Jie disappeared. Instead, they went straight to the Duke of England's mansion and wanted to visit the Duke of England, but were told that Zhang Rong was not in the mansion. However, when the Duke of England's wife learned that he was coming, she also invited him in. Zhang Li was still in the mansion.

Soon, Xu Jie arrived at the living room. Xu greeted Xu Jie very enthusiastically and sat down, while Zhang Li sat there making tea.

"I'm afraid there's something wrong with my in-laws coming here at this time. I just asked someone to call Shiyun, and I guess I'll come here now!" Xu said to Xu Jie with a smile.

"Yes, there is something to talk to the British Duke!" Xu Jie nodded with a smile. At this time, Xu Shiyun also came over and immediately saluted Xu Jie.

"Dad, why did you come here at this time? But is there something wrong? Husband went to Xuanhua this morning, and it will probably take several days to come back!" Xu Shiyun sat down and said to Xu Jie.

"I know, I am worried that today the emperor has an imperial edict, which was later taken back, that is, Zhang Hao was appointed as the imperial envoy and went to the south to supervise the taxation matter. It was suddenly taken back, and I felt something was wrong,

This imperial edict reminded the officials and businessmen in the south, and even said that the vassal kings in the south would be alert. Zhang Hao went to the south, so there would be no idea how many officials in the south would die at that time. Everyone knew that Zhang Hao would investigate corruption, and that was accurate.

After all, he is the commander of the Jinyiwei, so there is nothing he can't find out. In addition, this time he goes to the south, it will probably affect the interests of many people. I am worried that those people will be unfavorable to Zhang Hao, so I want to come and remind Zhang Hao, and you also advise Zhang Hao to not go to the south!" Xu Jie sat there and said to Xu,

When Xu heard this, he frowned, and Zhang Li was the same, checking taxes?

"Gemao Xu, how to check taxes?" Zhang Li looked at Xu Jie and asked.

"I don't know yet, probably only Zhang Hao and the emperor know!" Xu Jie shook his head and said, Zhang Li was sitting there and thinking about it. However, Xu Shiyun knew it, but he didn't dare to tell his father because this involved her husband's safety, so she couldn't say it, nor did she dare to say it.

"Well, it's okay, haven't you gone now? The emperor has also taken back the imperial edict. It's probably nothing big. Now Hao'er has gone to Xuanhua, and it's probably a lot of things to do in Xuanhua!" Xu immediately said to Xu Jie with a smile.

"Yes, now we also hope that Zhang Hao will not go to the south. The south is too dangerous. There are many wealthy businessmen who dare to do anything. They have done a lot of smuggling. Many officials want to clean up these people, but they don't dare to take action. So, madam, you still have to persuade Zhang Hao for this matter!" Xu Jie said to Xu!

"I know, I will persuade him at that time. It's just right, Li'er, to accompany his in-laws to have dinner in the living room!" Xu said to Zhang Li with a smile.

"Okay, Mr. Xu, please come here!" Zhang Li stood up with a smile.

"Well, okay, I'm not polite!" Xu Jie nodded, and came to his in-laws' house and didn't even eat. That was unreasonable. Soon, Zhang Li took Xu Jie away, and Xu still sat there thinking about this matter.

"Mom, I told me yesterday before my husband went, and he was worried about this matter!" Xu Shiyun said to Xu in a low voice.

"Hmm? I said it? Then why did the emperor take back the imperial edict today?" Xu asked at Xu Shiyun.

"Mom, the emperor asked him to sort out taxes, mainly targeting the smugglers. His husband said that this matter could not be done. After all, many people participated in the smuggling matter. Not only those merchants, but also those vassal kings and officials. Zhang Hao also said that even grandfather's family might be involved, and the eldest sister-in-law's family also involved. This investigation is to check the people in his family!" Xu Shiyun said very quietly.

"Oh, check the smuggling!" Xu heard this and nodded, really knowing why the emperor sent Zhang Hao to the south.

"Come on, go and call the eldest young lady here!" Xu sat there thinking for a while and spoke.

"Yes!" The maid at the door immediately went out. After a while, Ding Yu came over and saluted Xu first.

"Sit down, something happened in the court today, that is, to let Hao'er go to the south to sort out the taxes. The imperial edict was taken back later, but this incident will arouse speculation from the officials and merchants in the south. After all, Zhang Hao is the commander of the Jinyiwei. He is going to the south. There must be officials in the south to be taken down.

Just now, your brother and sister also said that the emperor asked Hao'er to investigate the smuggling incident. Now, although this matter has been stopped and Hao'er has not gone, please write a letter to your house and ask them to stop doing such things immediately. Only when the matter is completely over will you do it. You can't just focus on the immediate interests. If Zhang Hao finds them at that time, it will be troublesome to deal with it!

Let them stop. If there are difficulties in money and food, tell them that our Duke’s Mansion can provide help to see if it is taking other business paths. Such a path is not safe. If Hao'er has any good business, call those people from your parents' home!" Xu said as he instructed Ding Yu.

"Well, okay, mom, I understand. I will write to them. Since my second uncle is investigating the case, then our family cannot commit crimes against the wind, otherwise it will be difficult for the second uncle to deal with it!" Ding Yu nodded immediately and said.

"Well, you know what Li'er did business with Hao'er and those princes before to make money?" Xu asked Ding Yu.

"I have heard some of it, my husband told me!" Ding Yu nodded immediately and said.

"That's good. If Hao'er still has business, our family can divide it out for your parents' home to make up for your family's losses!" Xu immediately said to Ding Yu.

"That's not possible. There is no such reason. They have made a lot of money because of our family over the years. Now they have money. If they are not satisfied, I don't mind asking the second uncle to deal with them!" Ding Yu immediately shook his head and said, "It is impossible to let the Duke of England give up the interests."

In the future, she will be the wife of the Duke of the Kingdom. Although she has no children yet, Dr. Li Yanwen also said that in the past few years, she may have children at any time. She is also the home of the Duke of England's mansion. This money cannot be given to others. You can borrow money, but it is a different matter!

"Okay, tell them well. This afternoon, I will let Li'er go and tell the princes to stop and not do such things. I heard that Xuanhua's tax revenue is 200,000 to 300,000 taels, and now those people are smuggling, I don't know how much the loss to the court. The emperor will definitely not let such a large amount of money and grain flow into the pockets of those merchants. If anyone else, no one would agree!" Xu sat there and said to them, and they nodded.

"Okay, let's go to have a meal too. Go to my yard and go!" Xu stood up, Ding Yu and Xu Shiyun each held her hand and walked towards the backyard.

On Zhang Hao's side, Zhang Hao kept rushing to Xuanhua before the city gate and headed straight to his mansion. Yu Wanpeng, another general of Xuanhua, learned that Zhang Hao had returned to Xuanhua, and immediately brought people over.
