Yun Liu, who was responsible for sorting out information for Chen Xi, was very nervous when she saw all kinds of news that revealed dangerous murderous intent. She was very worried that something might happen to Chen Xi. Finally, she and Xier had a settlement and did not want to return to the lonely and helpless state before.

Yun Liu came to the study and made a suggestion to Chen Xi: "Sir, it is not advisable to go to Jianggan at this time... You might as well send someone first to eliminate the evil villains in the local area that are not good for the adults. Then lead the army and rectify the administration with a thunderous force!"

While listening to Yun Liu's remarks, Chen Xi sorted out official documents and smiled on his face: "You think I am a madman who is born to fight with others? I am often forced by the situation when doing things. Now, since someone thinks that I am hindering their promotion and wealth, then just give them a chance... Always staying in Wuchang Mansion will make them feel that I am timid. Alas, this governor is hard to be!"

Yunliu heard it in the fog, and I wonder why Chen Xi was so moved.

But seeing Chen Xi's attitude, he knew that Chen Xi did not take these intimidations seriously.

Although Chen Xi has not yet established a new army under his direct command, there are hundreds of personal guards around him. This time, Chen Xi does not intend to go in vain and has many followers. It is almost a fantasy to successfully assassinate under the protection of heavy troops.

As for poisoning, setting fires, etc., Chen Xi felt that it was even more unreliable. He must be cautious along the way, bringing rice and grain, and trying to stay at the inn as few as possible. He wanted to see how arrogant the officials and gentry in Jianggan were.

Chen Xidao: "If they are really capable of assassinating, I would look up to them, otherwise... I can only make a laughing joke!"

Yun Liu originally said that Chen Xi was too sarcastic about his life, but when he thought about the situation at Tumu Fort at that time, he felt that Chen Xi's reaction was normal... People who have experienced strong winds and waves, seeing this threat again, they felt that pediatrics were in childhood.

...

...

Chen Xi embarked on a journey on June 5th, with 200 followers, most of whom were escorting soldiers. At the same time, Yun Liu, Xier and others secretly sent eighty spies to secretly escort them.

Chen Xi brought Shen Yongqi with him. When he set out, he did not alarm the local government and did not let him see him off. He rented eight ships from the local garrison. The fleet left Wuchang Prefecture for a long time. Chen Xi went on a shore at Fankou and moved on land... This was the method of vocalizing east and attacking west, saying that it was a waterway, but in fact it was not an ordinary road. Chen Xi was about to attack Jianggan and was caught off guard.

Less than four days after setting off, the group entered Jiujiang Prefecture.

Before this, Zhang Hang, the governor of Jiujiang, heard that Chenxi took Jiujiang to Nanchang and waited at Xunyang Wharf early, but unfortunately he had not seen anyone after waiting for several days. Chenxi had no waterway at all, and he did not rest at the inn along the way. Most of the time, he did not walk on a spacious official road, but on a small road along the river.

First, it is to cover up people's eyes and ears, and second, it is Chen Xi who wants to see the most real people's lives and understand the hardships of people's livelihood.

If he went downstairs to inspect, the local government would definitely do its best and make the illusion of good weather and people living and working in peace and contentment. This time, he would not accept it and see the most real and intuitive things. Chen Xi himself was born into a poor family in western Fujian. He knew what kind of living conditions were farmers and tenants in this era.

This is an era when you can't afford to have land, you have to bear debts and even sell children. The poorer the countryside, the more obvious this situation is.

Along the way, Chen Xi felt a lot more emotion: "I have a scholar's uncle in my family, which is pretty good. I won't be exploited by the gentry. Those ordinary people are like grass. Due to the serious land annexation, many people can only rent the landlord's land to plant and pay extremely high rent. Huguang is the land of the granary, but it is actually just like that!"

On June 10th, after a day of rushing down, Chen Xi was tired and thirsty, so he decided to go to the city to wash up. The nearest county town is De'an County, Jiujiang Prefecture.

When Chen Xi sent someone to De'an County to report that he was going to enter the city, Guan Zhulin, the magistrate of De'an, was so scared that he took the county officials out of the city to greet him.

When he saw Chen Xi, Guan Zhulin immediately knelt down and kowtowed repeatedly, with a very respectful attitude. However, this scene fell in Shen Xi's eyes and doubted whether the Guan County Magistrate in front of him had done too much trouble on weekdays. Now he is afraid of settlement in the autumn, so he pretends to be a good grandson.

Chen Xi stepped forward and waved his hand and said, "Minister Guan doesn't have to perform this great gift. I passed by De'an County on my way to Nanchang. It was not too early and I wanted to go to the city to rest. I don't know if it would be convenient?"

“Convenient, naturally, it’s convenient!”

Guan Zhulin stood up and made a respectful gesture: "Your Majesty can come to Bi County. The local people are so proud of their faces. I can't ask for it! Please, please enter the city!"

"Um!"

Chen Xi nodded with satisfaction and went straight to Guan Zhulin.

Guan Magistrate is a juren. He had already lacked seventh-rank county magistrates from several places. He was very experienced in dealing with his superiors, but now he was still scared to sweat.

Chen Xi didn't look back, as if there were eyes on his back, and said, "The weather is so hot. The magistrate Guan came out to greet him. It was so grand and grand. I really want to be honest."

"If you feel that your body can't stand it, the magistrate Guan will go back to the county government office to rest earlier. I will go to the inn and leave De'an early tomorrow morning. I will never cause trouble to the magistrate Guan!"

Guan Zhulin quickly stated: "No trouble or trouble. The lower-ranking official has been an official in De'an for two years. He is very familiar with the terrain here. It would be better to lead the way for the Governor General. Please..."

Afterwards, Guan Zhulin personally led Chen Xi and his party to the inn to settle down, and then he returned to the county government office in vain.

Because he was not sure about Chen Xi's intention, Guan Zhulin had to convene to discuss with him and see how to disperse Chen Xi.

"Guan Magistrate Guan, this Shen Zhongcheng is not easy to mess with. When he was an official in the three southeastern provinces, he once pulled three prefectures and six magistrates down, and even detained the criminals of the bandits. He killed them on the spot, causing a sensation in Fujian and Guangdong..." Guan Zhulin's master was Gu Chengyan, a scholar from Shaoxing, Jiangsu and Zhejiang. He was in his forties and said with a look of fear.

The captain Zhang Ming was a little surprised: "Why did I hear that this Shen Zhongcheng killed five prefects and twenty prefects at one time?"

The information spread in this world is not smooth. Although Chen Xi’s work in Fujian and Guangdong has been spread, there are many different opinions on the specific matters and it is very evil in the officialdom. This is mainly related to Chen Xi’s decisive behavior in recent years, and others will unconsciously exaggerate it.

Gu Chengyan said: "The news I have discovered is absolutely true. Don't mess around with the little servant..."

"Enough!"

Guan Zhulin angrily shouted, "I am worried. Now Shen Zhongcheng has led his troops into the city. Even if he only killed one prefect and one county, it would be a bad person! What are you doing here? Why don't you think of a way for me to deal with it quickly?"

Guan Zhulin was completely confused by the arrival of Chenxi. The governors of the two provinces had the power to take action first and then report. This seemed like a shackle was put on his body, and he felt quite uncomfortable. But these people under his command were still scaring people with hearsay.
