Zhou Mengchen hurried back to the Governor's Office, and immediately mobilized all the intelligence personnel from the Governor's Office to check the old files and find out all Luo Longwen's whereabouts back then.

After He Xinyin's reminder, Zhou Mengchen has always been concerned about Luo Longwen.

In this way, Zhou Mengchen doesn't need to investigate now. Just take these old files and compare and analyze them to find clues.

Soon, everything that was not paid attention to before was presented to Zhou Mengchen one by one.

Luo Longwen's whereabouts in Jiangnan were mostly related to doctors, and even visited famous doctors in Jiangnan many times. Zhou Mengchen didn't care before. After all, Luo Longwen was one of the Hui merchants and was once a member of Hu Zongxian's shogunate. He had a broad range of friendships and had all kinds of social interactions among all religions and all kinds of people. This is natural.

People who are famous doctors in Jiangnan have some influence.

But now it seems that this is not right.

Zhou Mengchen even discovered that Luo Longwen used to pretend to be a drug dealer. Zhou Mengchen was in charge of Jiangnan, and the area around Jiangnan was Zhou Mengchen's territory. Luo Longwen was doing business for Yan Shifan. It was natural to change his fake identity.

But why it is not another identity or a drug dealer, it is extremely intriguing.

Although there is no direct evidence, Zhou Mengchen has already predicted that he is 70 or 80 years old. Intuition tells him that there must be something wrong with it.

Just when I think about the time last year, a year has passed. Now maybe Yan Shifan’s so-called immortal elixir has been offered. Zhou Mengchen was shocked in his heart.

At this moment, he had to admit one thing, that is, he had everything he had now, and the emperor's support was very important. Although Zhou Mengchen is now full of wings, the support of imperial power is still one of the basis of Zhou Mengchen's power. Once Jiajing surrendered to Zhou Mengchen's rebellion, Zhou Mengchen dared not say it, and there was no hope. But when one retreated and advanced, he would encounter big problems.

Zhou Mengchen took a deep breath and said to himself: "We must return to Beijing, and the faster the better."

In Jiangnan, he couldn't do anything. His reaction was slower than others. It can be said that if there was really a big conflict in the capital, when he reacted, everything would be settled.

But Zhou Mengchen has so many things in his hands. He just came back from Japan and didn’t know how much to do. Where can he go just by leaving?

Zhou Mengchen first discussed with Xu Wei.

Xu Wei was a little disbelief of Zhou Mengchen's attempt to guess such a big thing with just a piece of medicinal herb. He said, "This thing is not something that was found in this dynasty. In the Tang Dynasty, A Furong. I have never heard of such a thing. Do you have too much contact with adults?"

No, Xu Wei doesn't believe in Zhou Mengchen.

Nowadays, Wuxiang is so expensive, so it is impossible to promote it on a large scale. When it is a valuable medicinal material, there is no need to remind the doctors to use medicine carefully. After all, it is a little more money to use it.

It is simply impossible to become a common drug.

Many side effects will naturally not be discovered.

If you change to other medicinal herbs, Zhou Mengchen would not be so sensitive. You must know that the raven-chi is a medicine that affects history. If you don’t know what else, Zhou Mengchen can still not know this thing. He even remembers that he didn’t know where he saw it, Wanli’s inference.

It seems to be a proof of Zhou Mengchen's speculation.

When he thought of this, he was very worried. Although he had some feelings for Jiajing, the so-called kindness of knowing the favor, Zhou Mengchen was a modern person and had different values ​​from the ancients. Although he felt that the boss of Jiajing was good to him, it was difficult for Jiajing to treat him with power, so it was difficult for people to have any sincere feelings for Jiajing wholeheartedly.

However, the changes caused by Zhou Mengchen over the years have disrupted history. Fortunately, Zhou Mengchen only has a rough understanding of history. However, Zhou Mengchen does not know whether this happened in history. However, if this incident made Yan Shifan accomplished. After Yan Song, it was not Xu Jie, Wu Peng, or Yan Maoqing and other Yan Party to rise to power. History is in ruins, and not to mention it, all Zhou Mengchen's ambitions will suffer major setbacks. Even Zhou Mengchen's wealth and life may not be able to be preserved.

What can a drug abuser have to trust?

Zhou Mengchen could not please Jiajing without any bottom line like those of the Yan Dang.

Zhou Mengchen said with annoyance: "Wen Chang, you don't have to worry about this. I know the medicinal power of the raven tablets. I can't joke about such things. If it weren't for this, it would be a false alarm. No matter what, I will have to go back to Beijing."

"Must, immediately, immediately."

After hearing Zhou Mengchen say this, Xu Wei did not insist on it anymore: "Actually, if you don't mention it, I will advise you to make arrangements in the capital early. Now that you are outside, there are already many harms but no benefits. It's better to prepare in advance now."

This is already the consensus of Zhou Mengchen's group.

What does Zhou Mengchen do when he is away? He is to make political achievements, fame, cultivate teams and talents.

Now Zhou Mengchen first captured Tumote's troops in Datong, and then quelled the Japanese trespass in Jiangnan. He could fight south and north without any disadvantages. In this case, who does not know who Zhou Mengchen was? The forces in the army, local forces, and even Zhou Mengchen's persistence in Qiming have developed well.

It can be said that the strength behind Zhou Mengchen is no longer the same as before. It is useless outside. On the contrary, because it is not in the center of power, it is passive everywhere, especially the relationship between Zhou Mengchen and Xu Jie is almost on the verge of breaking down.

Returning to Beijing to take up his post is the only way.

Zhou Mengchen said: "I know, now is there any way to get me back to Beijing immediately?"

Xu Wei said: "In fact, there is one thing that is the best thing, that is, to report the victory and offer prisoners."

Zhou Mengchen's heart moved, which was a good excuse.

As a high-ranking official, Zhou Mengchen was the kind of person who was not allowed to return to the capital without an imperial edict. If he wanted to return to the capital, he must have a suitable excuse, or in other words, the capital summoned him back.

Yan Song naturally did not want Zhou Mengchen to return to Beijing. He hoped that Zhou Mengchen would be away all the time. Even Zhou Mengchen heard in private that Yan Song had prepared for him the next official position, either, or the Governor of Yunnan, Guizhou and Sichuan.

The reason for this official position is that there have always been problems in the southwest. Now the hidden dangers in the southwest are the Anjia family in eastern Sichuan and the Mang family in Myanmar. The former should actually be the Anjia family in Zunyi, but Zunyi still belongs to Sichuan. The Anjia chieftain and the local chieftain are fighting against each other. Now the Sichuan governor is wandering between two choices of conquest and appeasement.

When the Myanmar Magdale officially rose, it attacked the surrounding countries.

And these countries were all chieftains recorded by the court in the Ming Dynasty. They all asked for help. The court was also weighing the trade-offs or not?

If you fight, you don’t want to mobilize the troops for just a few chieftains. Especially this is a lesson from the past. In the Zhengtong period, the three campaigns of Luchuan consumed too much military power, and then the Tumu Fort changes occurred.

Now the imperial court's national strength is far inferior to that before, and it will be impossible to support it when fighting Myanmar. However, if you only condemn verbally, the prestige of the imperial court in the southwest will be consumed sooner or later.

Yan Song even hanged up these two things.

Once Zhou Mengchen freed up his hands, he was ready to let Zhou Mengchen deal with these two things. Whether it was to fight An's family or Myanmar, it would not be solved in one or two years. Wouldn't it be a governor of the three southwestern provinces and let him continue to stay outside?

After fighting these two places, Yan Song still has the solution.

This is why Xu Wei was a little anxious about returning to Beijing, because it is very likely that he would not be able to go back if he could not go back.

One of the several situations where you can return to Beijing, and now the most suitable thing is to report the victory and offer prisoners.

As for Zhou Mengchen himself, he did not take the war in Japan seriously. At best, it was a war of punishment for adults to beat children. There were no prisoners at all. In general, he just included a few small islands into the territory of the Ming Dynasty.

However, the Ming Dynasty did not actually care about the territory on the sea.
