East Factory Governor

Chapter 314 Li Fu, Prefect of Ningbo
Although he was extremely surprised, he was also extremely happy. With Lu Youchi, the apprentice of the beggar king, personally escorting him, and Meng Wei accompanying him, Zhao Xinian's safety should be guaranteed.

So he immediately got up and bowed solemnly to Lu Youchi, saying, "If senior Lu is willing to help this junior, this junior will definitely remember it in his heart. If senior has an order from him before him, this junior will dare not refuse."

Lu You laughed and said, "Very, very good. The old beggar has nothing to do, so it's good to be able to sell favors to Chief Qin! Then it's settled. When is your friend going to leave?"

Qin Shuhuai said, "Of course, the sooner the better. Senior Lu, how about tomorrow morning?"

Lu Youchi said straightforwardly, "Yes, we will meet outside the north gate tomorrow morning."

"Okay, it's a deal."

After several people exchanged pleasantries, Qin Shuhuai took Li Shounian to leave.

After sending Qin Shuhuai out, Cheng Dashan said to Lu Youchi, "Master Lu, do you really want to go there yourself?"

Lu Youchi has no status in the gang, so everyone in the gang calls him "Uncle Lu".But he is Wang Datong's younger brother, and he is also the successor of the old gang leader "King of Beggars", so his status in the gang is second only to Wang Datong.In his capacity, it was really unexpected that he would offer to escort someone for Qin Shuhuai.

Lu Youchi said, "Why don't you give up the favors you got for nothing? I was going to the north too, but the recent movements of the beggars in the north are worrying. I'm afraid that senior brother can't do anything alone there."

Cheng Dashan's expression froze when he heard what Lu Youchi said.

"Wang Zhangbang has been here for more than a month, and there is no news so far. I am also worried. Also, the big shaman who came from Jin is said to be very powerful. If he joins forces with Beibei, we will It's harder to deal with."

Lu You said with a wry smile, "So, I hope this Lord Qin will go back to Tongzhou as soon as possible. It's a troubled time in the north, and I don't know what this Lord Qin is doing in the south. Hey, Wang Zhangbang must be waiting for him in the north now. "

Just arrived at the next morning, Lu Youchi arrived outside the east gate as agreed, and joined Qin Shuhuai and his party.In addition to Lu Youchi, the Haisha Gang also sent more than 50 people, led by the deputy gang leader Li Shounian himself.In this way, the group went north in the name of Haisha Gang delivering the goods, which can be better concealed.

When he was about to leave, Qin Shuhuai gave Meng Wei a pair of emerald jade bracelets and asked him to pass them on to Chen Qing'er.This pair of bracelets was obtained by him when he was copying the big salt merchants. Judging by the appearance, it cost several thousand taels of silver.

"Say hello to Grandma Qi for me, and tell my wife that I'm safe. Tell her that I won't be able to come back during the Chinese New Year, and I'll be back as soon as I'm done. And, um...forget it, that's all."

Meng Wei smiled and said, "Don't the leader write a letter? There is nothing better than a letter to convey affection."

Qin Shuhuai said depressedly, "You think I don't want to? But do you think I can write? I have to use a brush, so many gestures, and I have to be polite. I'm so exhausted that I can't write a few words."

Meng Wei shook his head with a smile, and said, "Okay then, I'll pass on the message. Chief, is there anything else you want to explain?"

Qin Shuhuai thought for a while, and then said, "By the way, it is said that there is a Jinlun Dharma King from Beibei, oh no, Shaman King? Anyway, he looks very powerful, and he was sent by the Jiannu Sect. Be careful, If you can’t conflict with Beibei, don’t conflict with them, everything will be discussed when I go back. Of course, if they come to your door, you don’t have to be cowardly.”

"understood."

"I'm not here, so I will leave the affairs of the gang to you and my master. Lao Meng, you have worked hard recently, and you can't go home during the Chinese New Year."

Meng Wei smiled faintly, "Since when did the leader become so affectionate, didn't you go home? If there's nothing else, we'll set off."

Qin Shuhuai said with a smile, "All right, all right, forget me for being wordy. Let's go, be careful on the road."

Then he said to Lu Youchi, "Senior Lu, this junior is really uneasy for being so kind to senior. When we meet again next time, this junior will definitely thank senior."

Lu Youchi laughed, and said, "Master Qin is being polite. The old beggar wants to help you as a favor, and I will ask you to pay it back sometime."

Qin Shuhuai also smiled and said, "Okay! This junior is waiting for Senior Lu's dispatch."

After talking with Lu Youchi, Qin Shuhuai said a few more words to Zhao Xinian, asking him to listen to Meng Wei and Lu Youchi along the way, and not to move around without permission. Zhao Xinian agreed one by one, and at the same time was very grateful.

After saying goodbye, everyone officially set off.Originally, Qin Shuhuai also wanted to send Cheng Feng to the chief helm, after all, he was considered a witness, but then he thought that this kid was always a killer, what if he attacked Zhao Xinian on the way?So I had no choice but to give up and keep him by my side.

After Meng Wei and the others left, Qin Shuhuai asked Zhao Quyou and the others to go back to the restaurant of the Haisha Gang, and then climbed over the city wall and entered the city by himself.

After staying in the city for a day, he immediately set off for the residence of Li Fu, the prefect of Ningbo, after dark.

The reason why he was looking for him quietly at night was to protect him.If Wang Huazhen knew that he went to find Li Fu, Li Fu's situation would be even worse.

In the study, Li Fu frowned, as if he was deep in thought.

The door was pushed open suddenly, and a strange boy of sixteen or seventeen came in.Li Fu was startled, and was about to call out, but Ya acupoint was tapped instantly.

Qin Shuhuai closed the door and said to Li Fu, "Master Li, don't panic, I'm not here to take your life, I just came to ask you something. I'm going to unlock your acupoints now, but don't shout, or it will be very bad for you. Understand?"

Li Fu nodded, expressing his understanding.

Qin Shuhuai solved his dumb acupoint.

"Who are you?" Li Fu asked in a low voice.

Qin Shuhuai said in a deep voice, "Lord Li, you deceived the emperor, ignored the imperial court's sea ban, opened foreign ports without authorization, and condoned illegal merchants in the country to do business abroad. What should you do?"

Li Fu's pupils shrank suddenly, and his whole body trembled.

Asked, "You, who are you?"

Qin Shuhuai took out a yellow scroll from his arms and handed it to Li Fu.

Li Fu opened it and was shocked to see the word "imperial decree" in the letter, and then looked at the content, and his face turned pale with fright.

He couldn't believe it, and carefully looked at the material of the imperial edict, the running script and the seal of the jade seal, and then he confirmed that it was the real imperial edict.

So he knelt down immediately, and said tremblingly, "The minister, Li Fu, the prefect of Ningbo, accepts the order. The next official welcomes the imperial envoy, and the crown prince Shaobao protects Lord Qin."

After finishing speaking, my heart was still trembling.

Qin Shuhuai's name is so famous, how could it be possible that Li Fu has not heard of it?I thought that this person is not in the north, but suddenly went south, could it be that he came here specially to open a foreign city on the southeast coast?If it is, it means that the emperor has already known about this matter and was furious, then the lives of the whole family will be in danger!Ignoring the imperial court's ban is deceiving the emperor, and the crime will be punished by the whole family!
