Chapter 238

Runzhou City, Governor's Mansion.

This is Yin Zhengxiong's mansion, the governor's residence. It covers an area of ​​dozens of slopes, and it runs north-south, with five entrances and five exits.

There is a brass-plated plaque on the gate of the mansion. The word "Yin Mansion" is eye-catching. Dozens of fist-sized copper nails are inlaid on the gate, shining brightly in the morning sun. Two stone lions in front of the gate The entanglement of the people makes it extraordinarily majestic.

In the early morning of the next day, Ding Yin came to the Yin mansion with injuries, met his own uncle Yin Zhengxiong, came to complain for help, and complained about how arrogant and defiant Su Chen was. The daughters of the Xu family and the Zhou family took shelter and beat him seriously.

Yin Zhengxiong saw that Ding Yin was so badly bandaged that he was almost carried off by a stretcher, and immediately became furious: "What a bird of Su Chen, this guy dared to beat my nephew of the Yin family to such an extent, there is no way for him to do so." See if I don't send someone to arrest him and put him in a prison for punishment, even Peng Zeliang, the magistrate, has no right to interfere."

"Thank you, Uncle, for making the decision for me!" Ding Yin cried bitterly, but it was completely faked. Today, he deliberately bandaged him in such a miserable state, just to stimulate Yin Zhengxiong, arouse his anger, and order arrest.

"As long as I'm the governor of Runzhou, it's not up to these lowly people to bully the Ding family!" Yin Zhengxiong snorted coldly, and ordered the guards to come over and summon a commander to listen to the order.

Hearing this, Ding Yin felt joy in his heart, and there was a hint of insidiousness on the corner of his mouth, now it's time to see how Su Chen can bear the anger of the governor's uncle.

After a long time, the command envoy Ren Congming entered the Governor's Mansion, clasped his fists and said, "Master Governor, call your subordinates over, what's your order?"

Yin Zhengxiong looked solemn, and said in a cold tone: "There is a rioter in Runzhou City who is lawless and seriously injured the nephew of the governor, and he is still at large. This guy is arrogant and domineering because he has something to do with the prefect Peng. The infantry of the two capitals, surround the Su family, and capture the traitor Su Chen, no matter who comes to stop him!"

"Obey!" Commander Ren Congming bowed his hands and saluted.

Half of the military system of the Southern Tang Dynasty was taken from the Great Tang Dynasty, and half was combined with the characteristics of the Five Dynasties period. Usually, there were five people in a line, with a corps leader.

The five columns form one flag, with one person in charge of the flag and two persons in charge of the vice-flag.

The four banners form one capital, and there are one hundred soldiers. If it is infantry, set up one capital head and two deputy capital heads; Under the deputy soldiers and horse envoys and the deputy capital, there are ten generals, general Yuhou, Chengju and detaining officials.

The five capitals are one battalion, with the post of school lieutenant; the fifth battalion is one army, with a commander; the tenth army is a division, with a capital commander!

The higher level of the commander is the Jiedushi, or general, or governor. The specific position of the commander depends mainly on the location of the garrison, the nature of the army, whether it is the Jiedu town army, the government soldiers, regiment training troops, or expeditions. The army is at war.

Yin Zhengxiong waved his hand, telling him to hurry up and do it.

Ren Congming nodded and turned to leave. He just walked through the front courtyard and before he reached the gate, he heard loud footsteps outside the mansion. A group of people entered the gate of the Yin mansion. The person walking in the front was holding a yellow silk scroll , wearing a eunuch costume, shouted loudly: "The imperial decree has arrived, Yin Zhengxiong, the governor of Runzhou, will accept it!"

Yin Zhengxiong was stunned. He really didn't expect that there would be any imperial edict. The last time an imperial edict was issued to him was five years ago when he was transferred from Changzhou governor to Runzhou.

"My minister, Yin Zhengxiong, accepts the order!" Yin Zhengxiong respectfully knelt down and saluted, and everyone in the courtyard followed him.

"The imperial edict said: Yin Zhengxiong, the governor, guards Runzhou and works conscientiously."

In the imperial decree, Yin Zhengxiong was first praised a few words, and then mentioned the transfer of the governor's position. Yin Zhengxiong will be transferred from Runzhou to Yunzhou as the governor, which is a flat transfer.

However, Runzhou is the eastern gateway of the Southern Tang Dynasty. It is very close to the Jinling City of the capital and belongs to the upper three states, while Yunzhou is inland. In the southwest of Hongzhou, the economy is poor, which is equal to the lower three states.

Junzhou is located between the mountains and rivers of Jiangxi Province. The mountains are high and the roads are far away. Whether it is strategic, important, economical or financial, etc., for people in the Southern Tang Dynasty, this state is slightly more famous. The famous "Yang Jiong" once served as the county magistrate there and left one or two poems.

"Lord Inspector, accept the order and thank you!" The eunuch who delivered the order smiled eccentrically, and urged the Inspector to accept the order and thank you.

"My minister, Yin Zhengxiong, accepts the decree, and thank you for your majesty's grace!" Although Yin Zhengxiong was disappointed and even a little dissatisfied, he did not dare to resist the decree. , is still acceptable.

The eunuch who passed the decree said: "Master Inspector, the official ordered you to hand over the amulets of the local garrison soldiers and regiment training soldiers immediately after receiving the imperial edict, and leave Runzhou tomorrow for Yunzhou. Let’s communicate again, if there are tasks or important things to be done, you can write them on the letterhead and leave it to the new governor to do.”

Yin Zhengxiong's face was a bit ugly. To restrict him like this, it is obvious that the imperial court is always on guard against the transfer of the governors who hold the soldiers. They are worried that the governors, Jiedu envoys and other supporters will be self-respecting and will not leave easily, or they will encourage the soldiers to stay and make some troubles.Therefore, the eunuch who delivered the decree personally supervised, followed by a battalion of imperial guards, who nominally escorted the imperial decree and the eunuch delivered the decree, which also meant to be on guard and intimidate.

"Lord Inspector, what about Su Chen?" Ren Congming stepped forward and asked in a low voice.

Yin Zhengxiong waved his hand and said with a sigh: "Forget it, don't make troubles, leave a mess, who will deal with the aftermath?"

He will leave tomorrow, and there are still many things to arrange, such as moving, bringing family members and property, etc., and he is no longer in the mood to deal with the grievances between the juniors.

What's more, after arresting Su Chen in the army, the barracks will soon cease to be under his control. Once he leaves, the prefect Peng and the Bai family will continue to attack the Ding family because of Su Chen's bullying. Things I don't want to see, so at this time, I have the idea of ​​putting things to rest.

Ding Yin had vaguely heard it from the side, with a dumbfounded expression, feeling that his calculation this time was finally in vain.

"Su Chen, Su Chen, what kind of shit luck did you have, why did you plan so many times, it was all in vain!" Ding Yin cursed in his heart, feeling quite speechless and helpless.

One and a half months ago, when Bai Susu took out Su Yixuan's poems on a spring trip outside the city, Ding Yin's face was embarrassing in the name of this talented Su. After that, whenever he met Su Chen, Ding Yin was always in bad luck.

This is the case for the Xu Fu Poetry Club, this is the case for the Xiangyun Pavilion, this is the case for the Bai family's turnaround, and the same is true for the hijacking of the Jiangdong Five Monsters. They have never been able to suppress Su Chen, as if they were specially designed to suppress him and the Ding family.

At this moment, Yin Zhengxiong turned around, looked at Ding Yin, sighed and said: "Go home quickly, tell your father the news, let him make preparations early, I will leave Runzhou tomorrow and go to Yunzhou to take up my post. Let your father make up his mind on how your Ding family should deal with themselves!"

Ding Yin looked at his uncle's serious face, suddenly, a bad premonition surged in his heart, the real crisis was coming for their Ding family.
