Feng Zhiwei squinted his eyes, looking at the back of the sea of people. There, the guard of honor from the local government in Nanhai, as well as the people from the aristocratic families, were squeezed behind by the huge crowd. very.

She took the clairvoyance in Yan Huaishi's hand and aimed it in that direction. The circular clairvoyance kept moving, covering the officials in red and purple clothes. Some were whispering, some were smiling, some were squinting at the big ship, leading A black-faced man, surrounded by guards, actually covered himself with a huge parasol, sitting firmly in the center with a grand teacher's chair, reading a book, surrounded by the tide of thousands of people who could drown everyone with a single spit, with a leisurely attitude.

Feng Zhiwei's clairvoyance slowly moved down, and saw the rhinoceros belt on this man's waist, a second-rank official, Nankaido chief envoy, Zhou Xizhong.

Unlike the barren Longxi, Nankaido was the first province to open up maritime commerce, and had the country's first maritime and shipping department and customs. The five aristocratic families in the territory flourished, and maritime trade drove the local economy. It is very prosperous and the folk customs are relatively enlightened , This enlightenment is a good way to say it, and it is unruly to say it badly. Zhou Xizhong has been running the South China Sea for many years, and he can crush the powerful families in the South China Sea to death, forcing the Yan family to find a way to find a way out in the imperial capital, and he can also suppress the unruly people. His people are well trained, and his abilities can be imagined, and they are by no means comparable to Shen Xuru who plays the wife card.

As early as when the cabinet was discussing matters in the South China Sea, Feng Zhiwei knew that the South China Sea and his party were not that simple. A chief envoy who dared to instigate could also incite all the officials under his seat to join forces to oppose the national policy, and he could also command the people to petition according to their own will. He had the ability, With centripetal force and courage, no one should take such a person lightly.

Now, he has shown Ning Yi that he cannot be ignored—Ning Yi brought 336 people from Longxi Road with bloody heads, and he ordered the people of Nanhai to "warmly welcome" them on the pier, without intimidating Ning Yi at all. Prestige, deliberately want to give him a blow.

A group of black-clothed and red-edged yamen servants symbolically drove the crowd away, waving around like ducks, and drove the people from the five great families headed by the Yan family who came to greet them sincerely to the back.

Suddenly someone yelled.

"Get rid of the foolish officials who are perverse!"

It was as if a kindling had been ignited in the dry woodpile, and it was ignited immediately with a bang, and tens of thousands of people shouted loudly.

"Get rid of the court officials!"

"We don't need a Ship Affairs Division!"

"Whoever supports the clan will get out of the South China Sea!"

"Go back to the imperial capital!"

"Crack!" A piece of vegetable was thrown from nowhere, drawn a turbid green arc, and landed in the sea-opening water a few meters away from the big ship with a bang.

As if they had been reminded, all of a sudden, thousands of people were flying green vegetables in the sky, rotten eggs were dancing wildly, bullets were streaming in the air, and they headed straight for the imperial envoy ship.

Most of the projectiles landed in the water, but there were also a few flying objects that were head-high and smashed into the hull of the big ship, blooming colorfully.

"It's too much!" The fresh-blooded and noble-born students of Qingming Academy thought that this fat job would be welcomed with a high standard, and they almost died on the way. Already furious, starting with Yao Yangyu, one by one began to roll up their sleeves and arms, "My lord, let the sampan go, we will protect you and beat these bastards to death!"

"Your Highness." Yan Huaishi hurriedly went to pull Ning Yi, and then went to pull Feng Zhiwei, "The bow of the ship is dangerous! We have to beware of someone shooting cold arrows, let's go into the cabin to avoid it!"

Ning Yi didn't move, neither did Feng Zhiwei, the two stood side by side with their hands behind their backs, calmly facing the raging tide of the people in the South China Sea, the sea breeze blew their long hair up, and the black hair fluttered like a flag in the wind.

A bunch of dried fish fell to Ning Yi's feet with a clatter, and the shattered dried fish flakes splashed on his boots. The guards rushed over and raised their umbrellas to cover him, but Ning Yi brushed them aside lightly.

"The people in the South China Sea are really rich." Ning Yi smiled at Feng Zhiwei beside him, "Look, there are still people throwing dried fish, and this kind of dried fish is resold in the capital, with a bundle of five hundred coins."

Feng Zhiwei nodded sympathetically, and said: "Steamed over water, served with sesame oil, vinegar, garlic, green onions, very delicious."

Yan Huaishi clasped his hands and turned around, not understanding why these two people were still in the mood to talk about this in such a hostile and sinister situation. The big ship had already hit the bottom of the ship, and it would sink soon. Either they When the local government sends a big boat to pick them up, they have to use their own small boats to carry people away slowly, but once they use small boats, they will be exposed to the siege of Wanmin's eggs and vegetables. How could he let Ning Yifeng Zhiwei suffer this kind of treatment

What's more, if Ning Yifeng Zhiwei is allowed to get on a small boat first, and then the common people rush on to the shore, who can guarantee their safety? If the guards were to go down to defend first, if the big ship sank and Ning Yifeng Zhiwei fell into the water in front of Nanhai officials Wanmin, how would he order Nanhai officials after that

At the moment, the South China Sea officials are "blocked" behind Wanmin, and it is definitely impossible to expect them to send a boat to rescue them. This is obviously a dangerous situation, and they deliberately want to make Ning Yi and Feng Zhiwei feel embarrassed.

Zhou Xizhong is known as "Zhou Tiemian", and Nanhai official circles also call him "Zhou Bawang". After all, it is almost impossible for this person to be subdued.

"I'll get my big boat to pick it up!" Yan Huaishi thought for a long time, then gritted his teeth.

"No." Feng Zhiwei vetoed, "The people in the South China Sea are being instigated by the government, saying that your family is colluding with the high-level officials of the imperial capital. Now, in front of Wanmin, you will use your Yan family's boats as soon as they come, just to confirm the so-called collusion. Add fuel to the fire, and it will be even more unmanageable in the future."

"Then what to do?"

Ning Yi smiled, and suddenly said: "Wei Zhi, I'm very interested in the steamed fish you just mentioned."

Feng Zhiwei's eyes moved, and he said with a smile: "Only steamed fish, it's too monotonous...Brother Gu."

Young Master Gu who was eating walnuts floated over.

"Let's not waste food." Feng Zhiwei pointed to the vegetables floating on the water, "Take what you can eat and take it back."

Young Master Gu nodded, and dropped dozens of walnuts.

The dripping walnut flew out and landed on the surface of the sea. Gu Nanyi flew down from the side of the boat and landed on the nearest walnut.
