Wang Dian said silently. This was the case with the Qingliu official who had just come out of the capital, arrogant and arrogant.

I must be beaten up on Lai Tongxin, but I also have to worry about the face of the soldiers in Xinpingbao and the achievements of Hutchison's management here.

It has been a few days since Wang Dian entered Xinping Castle, and he could deeply feel that the soldiers who came to the fortress were hostile to him and others. In the eyes of ordinary people, even the eyes of the students and gentry, he was just jealous of Zhang Han's contribution to deliberately persecute and remember. Even Emperor Tianqi had caused some dissatisfaction, but people were mainly targeting the ministers, that is, civil servants. Many people were already worried that Zhang Han would end up with the same fate as Yue Fei, and even outside the Zhang Mansion's mansion, some people spontaneously stood outside the Zhang Mansion's mansion, and people came to guard the gates for the Zhang family.

It is conceivable how popular Hutchison is here. All classes are allies of Hutchison, whether they are generals and garrisons, gentry and students, or ordinary merchants and the lowest-level people.

Wang Dian could feel such pressure, but Wang Ruhuai seemed to have no such feeling, or the Qingliu who came out of the capital was disdainful of these people and things in the place.

Qingliu in the capital has never made friends with merchants. Even if Li Guobin has been in the capital for many years, he will at most give some conventional money during the New Year holidays. Li Guobin is absolutely not qualified to be invited for exchanges between Qingliu.

For example, when Huang Daozhou was in the capital, Li Guobin never had the chance to enter the house. A clear stream like Wang Ruhuai might bow to Wei Zhongxian, but when he turned around, he was arrogant to ordinary turbid stream officials, and to his colleagues, not to mention the local warriors.

Wang Dian sighed softly, knowing that he didn't have to persuade him anymore. He was originally qualified to be a governor, but now he has been pressed down. What is the idea of ​​the court? If he offended Wang Ruhuai again, he would be ordered by the officer to go out to Beijing to inspect the military affairs of Datong, Shanxi, and the imperial envoy was equivalent to an imperial envoy. How could he offend easily?

For the sake of Lai Tongxin, Wang would not even say a word, but he was considering the morale of Xinpingbao. Now it seems that Wang Ruhuai has no scruples about this. It seems that even if he wants to target Zhang Han in Xinpingbao, it is impossible to use Lai Tongxin and his subordinates.

When Zhang Han saw Lai Tongxin, who was wearing a bad look, leading more than a hundred horse and infantry to meet him, he had a smile on his face.

Only those who are familiar with him know that this is a sarcastic smile. For Lai Tongxin, even if he can't see it, he still feels quite embarrassed.

"General Lai." Zhang Han immediately bowed and laughed loudly: "This has always been a long time since I said that I haven't seen each other for several years."

Lai Tongxin bowed his hand dejectedly and said, "Mr. Zhang, I'm about to be rude."

Zhang Han smiled slightly and said, "According to the law, the business travelers who enter the fort are to check. I grew up in Xinpingbao. I have seen a lot of this. Please let General Lai take care of it."

After saying this, humility and casualness are completely different from Wang Ruhuai's arrogant and domineering face. The troops garrisoned with Lai Tongxin were originally in the same heart as Heji. They received the salary for several years in Heji's hand and had long regarded Zhang Han as the true benefactor.

There is no great justice these days. Whoever gets money is the main one. The emperor is arrogant and I don’t know that the soldiers of the border soldiers below also have to eat and support their families. The civil servants are full of benevolence, righteousness and morality, and have a compassionate face. But who has given them half a bag of millet to their children when they were so hungry that they cried in the middle of the night?

Compared with the rest of the Datong area in northern Shaanxi, Shanxi and Xuanfu, the people and the garrison have suffered less and received so much grace in recent years.

In Xinpingbao, almost everyone can be involved in Hutchison. Some relatives are working in Hutchison's business, or they work in Hutchison's workshops, or some relatives are moving to the grassland and truly becoming Hutchison's people, or some relatives are farming for Hutchison and herding sheep and raising ducks for Hutchison.

If we say that finding one household in Datong is completely unrelated to Hutchison, then we may only be those foreign officials and generals and soldiers transferred from other places.

Apart from that, no one has any relationship with Hutchison.

Seeing the soldiers walking over in a twitchy manner, each of them looked reluctant, Zhang Han's smile on his face became stronger.

Whether it is the court or the emperor, those great figures who plotted against him could not think of this. The deep roots and leaves of Hutchison were definitely not solved by solving some civil officials and military generals.

Unless the court has the ability to move all the two million soldiers and civilians in Datong, Hutchison will take root in Datong, and the emperor, the powerful dragon, cannot suppress Hutchison, this real local snake.

What's more, the snake has turned into a dragon and owns the entire grassland, which is even more difficult to control.

"You go." Zhang Han said to the soldiers who were reluctant to surround the carriage: "At least you have to show off..."

Lai Tongxin's face turned red. He knew that the Cangtou beside him was Wang Ruhuai's Changsui, so he sent him to monitor him.

To ask Lai Tongxin to come down and "welcome" is nothing more than giving Zhang Han a warning in front of everyone, and a blow to the head, so that he knows that the present is different from the past.

The result was that this was not satisfactory, but what could Lai Tongxin do?

He was able to stand here and supervise the soldiers to inspect the convoy, and he did it to the extreme. He didn't know what he would be scolded like when he went back this time.

Zhang Han looked calm and gentle. Of course, he knew who was standing on the city tower at the north gate. He didn't care about this and never took the capital from the incident seriously.

However, the series of local officials replaced by Emperor Ming Dynasty still called Zhang Han's eyes lit up, and a solid chain formed around him. The emperor tried to lock Hexi in a narrow area from Xinpingbao to Lizhuang. Theoretically, the emperor and the courtiers had done their best as much as possible.

Then, Xinjiang officials like Fu Zonglong, who showed great talents in Yunnan and Guizhou, served as governors of the Xuanfu. It is obvious that they should continue to suppress and weaken the status of Zhangjiakou's northern sub-commercial center, gradually transfer their commercial foundation, and prepare to eat up or shut down the entire Hutchison Trading Company.

This shows that the court has been willing to fight at all times. Recently, there have been quite a few places in the Xuanfu area of ​​Datong that have started to build those damaged enemy platforms and fire road piers. The court's hostility towards Hutchison has become quite obvious.

Zhang Han's return made He Ji win back a lot in public opinion, and it was even considered an extremely fierce counterattack.

Originally, Zhang Han's image was almost perfect, and the Hebei-Journal propaganda department's god creation movement was quite successful. Of course, Zhang Han also had enough capital to be used to be deified by publicity. In many places, Zhang Han was full of mysterious colors, which felt a little like it came into being.

This is also the reason why many unsuccessful Confucian scholars ran to the grassland. In the near future, these guys also smelled the wind and thought about making bets early.

After taking over Lin Danhan, Zhang Han's reputation was slandered by the court's counterattack, and he became too fierce and aggressive in many places.

There are many such figures in Chinese history. They performed well before seizing power. After winning the aspirations, they would destroy the people and even become very cruel and ruthless.

If a person can tolerate and deceive, then his character will definitely be bad.

The fact that Hutchison could develop to such a level under the supervision of the Ming Dynasty means that Zhang Han is ambitious about Bo Bo and is definitely not a good person.

This is a very bastard logic, but there is a considerable market among the people, so Zhang Han can't do anything about this.

Taking retreat to advance is a killer move. No one believes that Zhang Han can truly ensure his safety when he returns to Xinpingbao. All the sewage is washed clean, and even many ministers in the court and local civil and military officials are doubtful. If a person has the ambition of being fucked, how could he dare to leave behind his 100,000 soldiers on the grassland at this time and take his family back to Xinpingbao controlled by the Ming Dynasty?

If an edict ordered the arrest of Zhang Han, where would Zhang Han go?

Some Confucian scholars who have been confused about their brains insist that the king wants his minister to die, but the minister has to die. But more people still feel that Zhang Han is too wronged. If there is really an edict, more people tend to see Zhang Han flee back to the grassland.

As long as Hutchison cannot go south to attack the Ming Dynasty and get a connection between war, Hutchison will be accepted even if it is independent.

Many times, changes in public opinion and changes in people's hearts are so simple and easy to control, but they are easier said than done. Without Zhang Han's confidence, which hero dared to leave behind the foundation and leave military and political power behind and ignore it?

Without absolute certainty, who dares to hand over the foundation that has been hard-working for ten years to others for temporary care?

Without absolute certainty, who dares to take his wife and children back to Xinpingbao like this?

Even Lai Tongxin in front of him, and two civil servants on the North Gate Tower, a large number of officials, gentlemen and civilians in Xinpingbao who were angry and aggrieved, and those garrison soldiers who had been taking advantage of the memory, who were not worried about Zhang Han?

This move seems simple, but it easily brings back public opinion. Without strong confidence and the groups and systems established by Zhang Han himself, how can he dare to do this right now?

The soldiers symbolically walked around the side of the carriage. Even after checking, the generals and generals of the thousand-rank officers were unwilling to be stabbed by others, and no one seriously supervised them.

There are dense crowds of people standing on the north gate tower and in the fort. Don’t say that you are unwilling to do such a thing, even if you are willing, you have to worry about those pairs of angry eyes.

Lai Tongxin's back felt numb. He had been in Xinpingbao for so many years and had always been proud. After dependent on Hutchison, he had no worries, no external troubles or internal troubles. This was so comfortable to be a general.

After so many years of comfortable life, I never expected that there would be such a scene today. It was truly a matter of being criticized by thousands of people and ended in vain.

If he had the vision to kill people, Lai Tongxin would have no doubt that he and his soldiers would all die here.

Zhang Han’s benevolence and righteousness is not just a lip service, but a illumination of the entire Datong. Zhang Han’s contributions are comparable to those of the King of Zhongshan Xu Da and the Duke of Liang, and even more than that.

Such a hero, Lai Tongxin, dared to take the soldiers to pretend to check at the city gate. When Lai Tongxin thought about it, she wanted to slap him a few times.

Fortunately, this embarrassing situation did not last long. Two Qianshe looked at it for a while and turned around and reported: "The General of the Governor has no obstacles or any other detailed work."
