Red House Shoufu

Chapter 142
"So many? What is the Zheng family going to do?"

Lin Shu quickly opened the fish scale album and the news sent by the embroidered clothes guard, and compared it with the album sent by Du Zimu.

Although the records are not very detailed, it is roughly estimated that in Xing County alone, [-] to [-]% of the land has changed owners.And the new owners of these lands are all noble families in Xing County.

"The Liu family, the Chen family, the Wang family...these are all families that are closely related to the Zheng family. If you look at it this way, the land in Xing County really has the surname Zheng!"

The further down the comparison, the colder Lin Shu's back felt.In the scorching summer, he actually shivered.

"Senior Du, you didn't tell anyone else about this, did you?"

Lin Shu hurriedly put away the things on the table, and asked nervously: "Once the lid is lifted, I'm afraid people's heads will roll around!"

Du Zimu smiled calmly: "What? Is Lin Xueshi afraid?"

"Afraid! How can I not be afraid? I am the only seedling in the Lin family, and I can't afford to lose it on the trip to Henan! A gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall. We must be careful in this matter, so as to be safe!"

Lin Shu leaned out of the room and looked around, seeing no one around, he closed the door and said, "There are only a few people in the Henan party who know the real purpose. Even my second uncle, Jia Yuanwailang, thought that was the reason. It's just an ordinary river defense inspection. Senior Du, if we want to uncover the cover, we must first prepare a perfect plan."

This is only in Xing County. According to Lin Shu's investigation in the past few days, the Zheng family's influence in Xingyang has spread all over Henan, Huaiqing, and Kaifeng.

They either directly or indirectly merged the land of the state capitals, at least reaching [-]-[-]% of the local land.

In the village community, earthen castles were built.Gather the young and strong, isolate the inside and outside.No one knows what secrets are hidden in these Zhuangzi and earth castles.

In the worst case, Lin Shu guessed that this seemingly harmless Prince Yizhong was probably using the Zheng family to secretly gather strength for his great cause of rebellion.

"This matter must be reported to His Majesty immediately..." Lin Shu picked up the album on the table and was about to enter the palace, but Du Zimu grabbed him.

I just heard Du Zimu say: "What are you panicking about? Your Majesty doesn't know? The Embroidered Clothes Guards don't eat dry food. Your Majesty's eyes are like a torch, and he has already noticed the problem in Henan. Think about the British public leader who has been staying in Xiangfu's hometown. What is your job?"

Zhang Yue, the British public, is the eldest brother of Zhang Li, a cabinet scholar.In the sixth year of Zhide, the emperor suddenly decreed that Zhang Yue, who had been idle at home, was appointed as the Jiedu envoy of the Guangwu Army.

The Guangwu Army is divided into five battalions according to the system, each battalion has [-] troops, for a total of [-] troops.The sub-towns are Luoyang, Kaifeng, Ruyang, Nanyang and Zhangde.

Once reminded, Lin Shu understood the emperor's plan.It was he and Du Zimu who uncovered the cover, but the one who really crushed this group of scum was the British public Zhang Yue who had sharpened his knives for two years!
He sighed and said: "Your Majesty is really a treacherous... Cough... foresight! The layout started two years ago, and we are here this time, more to find an opportunity, an opportunity to eradicate this group of moths in the dynasty!"

Du Zimu bowed his hands to the north: "Your Majesty has endured for two years for the sake of the overall situation. Now the time has come, you and I are here to find evidence first, so as not to give that person an excuse to refute when Dragon Head Palace inquires. Bachelor Lin, dare to go with you?"

The two looked at each other and smiled, Lin Shu cupped his hands and said, "It's an honor to be able to walk with Senior Du. Let's work together for the community!"

Du Zimu returned the gift: "Drunk with you at the time of triumph!"

……

On the first day of June, after the court meeting, Lin Shu took leave of absence from the chief assistant Wei Qinghe.

The post from Prince Zhongshun's Mansion was sent to Lin's family a few days ago. Although he doesn't like to participate in any poetry conference, he has a reason to go today.

Lin Shu first went back to Huanghuafang's house, ready to change into a Confucian robe, while Daiyu and Wang Yuan had already changed into their clothes and waited.

"Where's Brother Weizhong?" Lin Shu asked after he changed his clothes and didn't see Wang Huan, "He hasn't come back from the Imperial Academy yet?"

Just as he was talking, Wang Huan ran over in a hurry, his official uniform was crumpled.As he ran towards the inner courtyard, he shouted, "Wait for me, I was delayed on the road just now..."

After he changed his clothes and came out, he took two carriages and drove to Zhongshun Palace.

As soon as he got in the car, Wang Huan said excitedly: "It's a pity that you didn't go to the Imperial Academy today. The Ministry of War and the Ministry of Industry fought in the Imperial Academy over the ownership of the blueprints of the treasure ship. If we hadn't stopped us, Ji Shilang from the Ministry of Industry would have been killed." Lou Shilang of the Ministry of War was killed!"

"Brother Weizhong, it's exaggerated..."

Lin Shu looked at Wang Huan speechlessly, as long as there was excitement to watch, this fellow would always stand in the front row.

Ministers of the DPRK and China often refute because of various issues, and when they cannot continue to refute, they will use hand-to-hand combat to decide the male and female.

Even in the court meeting, you can often see bearded, gray-haired old men fighting each other, even the emperor can't stop these seemingly absurd things.

Lou Yanbin, the left servant of the Ministry of War, and Ji Jianhua, the left servant of the Ministry of Industry, are both high-ranking officials of the imperial court, and they are both over the ages.

At today's court meeting, the emperor suddenly proposed to expand the navy.After the court meeting was passed, the first priority was to build treasure ships.

The Ministry of War believes that the ships used by the navy are of course under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of War.The Ministry of Industry believes that the construction of the treasure ship is the responsibility of the Ministry of Industry, so the treasure ship is of course owned by the Ministry of Industry before it is delivered to the Navy.

To put it bluntly, it is a competition for funds. Whoever can get the funds to build the treasure ship will have a good year.

Why did the emperor suddenly propose to expand the navy?Of course, the silver mine over there in the country of Wa has taken shape.It seems that the Dengzhou Navy has already made preparations. When the treasure ship is built, it will be the time for the soldiers of the Great Chu to board the Wa Kingdom.

Lin Shu asked curiously: "Who got the blueprint of the treasure ship in the end?"

"Lou Shilang is richer, so Ji Shilang is under him. You didn't see that Ji Shilang rolled his eyes at that time, and I hurried up to try to pull Lou Shilang away. But this group of guys in the Ministry of War, still I thought I was helping Ji Shilang, so I rushed over..."

Wang Huan talked for a long time while spitting.Finally, I answered Lin Shu's question: "The original blueprint has already been obtained by Lou Shilang. Wei Ge passed on the word that it is better for the Ministry of Industry to take charge and the Ministry of War to assist. The funds will be allocated by each of the two ministries. Supervise..."

Sure enough, the old fox knows how to mix mud. This way, the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Industry can accept it, and it will not affect the construction of the treasure ship.

……

"Master, we have arrived at the palace!"

About two quarters of an hour, the carriage stopped.Lin Shu lifted the curtain, and the door of Zhongshun Palace was full of people attending the meeting.

Gao Wanjiang, the heir son of Zhongshun Prince who was guarding the door to welcome the guests, saw Lin Shu standing on the carriage looking out from a distance, and the county lord's carriage behind him, his eyes lit up, and he waved his hand in this direction.
