When Xu Xianchun heard the name Han Shicheng, he frowned.
He seemed to have heard this name somewhere.
Xu Xianchun turned back and asked his men, "The name Han Shicheng sounds very familiar to me. Do you think so?"
He quickly said, "Of course, we have the information."
After saying that, his subordinate took a document from the side, handed it to Xu Xianchun and said, "The representative of Huizhou merchants is one of the few people who have the final say in the entire Huizhou business community."
After hearing this, Xu Xianchun nodded and understood what His Majesty meant.
But there is only one such person, and His Majesty didn't tell me what to do specifically?
Xu Xianchun thought for a moment and then said, "Go get Mao Qiangguang. This guy must have been terrified these days."
Mao Qiangguang, a captain of the Jinwei Guards in Yangzhou, can be said to be one of our own.
It's just that sometimes the Jinyiwei in the local area and the Jinyiwei in the capital are not on the same page. Many times, the Jinyiwei in the local area are also the targets of merchants to curry favor with, and there are many benefits.
In addition to them, there are also eunuchs guarding Yangzhou. These two types of people are representatives sent from the palace to the local area, and it can be said that they hold a large part of the power.
They are the extension of the palace's power in the local area, but they are often useless. When they reach the local area, they are often bribed, and people use money in various ways.
Since arriving in Yangzhou, Xu Xianchun had never met Mao Qiangguang. However, with Han Guotai in his hands, Xu Xianchun suddenly had an idea.
He thought that this was the way to do it, so he needed Mao Qiangguang.
"Bring everyone here, but don't alert anyone else," said Xu Xianchun.
The subordinate smiled and agreed, saying, "Don't worry, sir. This is not the first time we have done this. We are very experienced and there will definitely be no problems."
"Then let's do it." Xu Xianchun nodded and said.
Han Guotai also reacted at this time, looked at the two people and said, "You are actually officials? Which government office are you from?"
"What? Threatening us." Xu Xianchun looked at Han Guotai and said with a smile.
After hearing this, Han Guotai immediately became intimidated. With a bright smile on his face, he said, "How could that be? Let's all get to know each other and see if there's anyone we know. After all, my father is quite familiar with the people in the government office. If we are familiar with them, this is just a misunderstanding. Maybe my father even knows your superiors. Then we can get closer."
Xu Xianchun glanced at him and said, "Okay, let's see if you recognize him. We are from the Jinyiwei. Does your father have any acquaintances in the Jinyiwei?"
When he said this, Xu Xianchun had a smile on his face, with a teasing look on his face.
After hearing this, Han Guotai was immediately excited and said quickly: "I know him, not to mention my father, I know everyone. You may look unfamiliar, but I know the captain of your Jinyiwei."
"You're in the Jinyiwei, Commander Mao, so I know you well. We often drink together, and we often go to brothels together. In Yangzhou City, who doesn't know that we have a good relationship?"
"Just a few days ago, I gave him two women. They were the best women our family had ever nurtured. We are all acquaintances. Look, let me tell you. This flood has washed away the Dragon King Temple."
"Really?" Xu Xianchun was stunned. He said with a surprised look, "I see. It's okay. Master Mao will be here soon. If you two really know each other by then, there will definitely be no problem."
Han Guotai immediately breathed a sigh of relief, nodded repeatedly and said, "Okay, okay, that's great!"
"Come on, put him down. Have someone prepare a table of food and wine. Since we are family, we won't be polite. I want to have a good chat with Master Han." Xu Xianchun said with a smile.
The subordinates next to him had strange looks on their faces, but they didn't dare to show any surprise. They just hurried to prepare the table and food and wine.
After everything was ready, Xu Xianchun invited Han Guotai to sit down.
The two of them then had a long chat.
The more they talked, the more excited they became, feeling as if they had met too late. This situation continued until Mao Qiangguang arrived.
But Mao Qiangguang didn't have any confidence at all.
He knew that the Imperial Guards from the capital had followed His Majesty to the south, but why had they come to Yangzhou? He was probably up to no good.
