wealthy lord

Chapter 374: Openly repairing the plank road and secretly visiting Chencang
  Therefore, once Lin Yun really meets the emperor, he will most likely talk about reducing the vassal status. This is a bottom line that the Lin family will never accept.

At this time, the old man who spoke just now sneered: "Lin Zixiang, you are really good! Are you an official in the court and have forgotten your family? Or do you think that with your current official position, you can leave the Lin family and establish your own family?"

After hearing this, everyone present looked at Lin Zixiang with contempt.

Lin Zixiang smiled jokingly and said: "Lin Shan, you better put away your yin and yang attitude! Have you ever heard of a saying? Shoot the first bird! If you are so out of touch, be careful and you will not be safe!!"

"you!!"

Lin Shan was so angry that she stared at him as if she wanted to eat someone.

Lin Fengjiao saw that something was wrong and said quickly: "Okay, shut up!! It's a troubled time right now. You must unite as one and not get into trouble at this moment! Moreover, what Chief Ambassador Lin said makes sense! It seems that it is. I didn’t think it through well! However, even if Lin Yun is not moved now, we must send someone to closely monitor him! We must not let him grow wild again!"

Then, she looked at Lin Zixiang and asked: "Zixiang, you are the chief envoy of Fengyang County, responsible for financial and personnel matters. Do you have any good candidates?"

Lin Zixiang had already thought of a countermeasure before he came, so he smiled slightly and said: "Elder, as far as I know, Lin Yun is just a small lord in Niubei Village. Because he is good at growing grain, he made a big success last year. Good harvest, that’s why we alerted the Holy Master! If we want to send someone to monitor him, we can directly arrange for Lin Jinbiao who is guarding the Haocheng branch to carry out the task!"

"Lin Jinbiao..."

Lin Fengjiao muttered something and said, "He is currently the person in charge of my Lin family's placement in the Northwest?"

"That's right! This Lin Jinbiao works calmly and calmly, and doesn't panic when encountering problems! He is indeed a good young man! Moreover, in the past three years, he has given a total of 300,000 taels of silver to my Lin family, which can be regarded as a great contribution!"

Lin Zixiang recommended Lin Jinbiao, naturally to facilitate Lin Yun, and secondly to continue to hide Lin Yun's true situation.

After all, the Lin family has a huge business and it is impossible to cover everything.

Coupled with the fact that he was obstructing him, it would be easy to continue to hide Lin Yun's strength.

When one day Lin Yun completely surfaces from the water, that will also be the day when the carp jumps over the dragon's gate.

Especially Lin Zixiang always has his own little calculation.

Although he suffered a big loss in the last negotiation with Lin Yun, it also allowed him to see Lin Yun's strength.

Although I have been thinking about it, I already have the answer in my heart.

But what really made him make up his mind was learning about Lin Yun's meeting with the emperor.

After all, he is the chief envoy of Fengyang County and can be regarded as an official of the imperial court. He has some sources of information in the capital.

That's why he had great confidence in Lin Yun and made the final choice.

Lin Fengjiao didn't seem to realize that she had been deceived. She nodded with a smile and said: "Okay, since Ambassador Lin has already made a plan, I will leave this matter to you!! You can go down now!"

Lin Zixiang bowed and bowed, then turned and left.

The main purpose of his coming to the meeting this time was to convince Lin Fengjiao.

Everyone looked at his leaving figure and fell into deep thought.

At this time, Lin Shan said: "Elder, I think this is inappropriate! No matter what the reason is, when Lin Yun meets the emperor, it is disrespectful to our Lin family, and he may even try to plot against us! We must not Don’t be defensive!!”

Lin Fengjiao joked: "Of course!! That's why I deliberately asked Lin Zixiang to leave first!!"

Everyone's eyes lit up.

Lin Fengjiao continued: "Lin Shan, as the elder in charge of the punishment of my Lin family, and also the direct governor of Fengyang County, it stands to reason that everyone in the Lin family, even a bastard, is under your control, so next, you give me Secretly send someone to investigate the true situation in Niubei Village, and then recruit a new person and arrange them to Haocheng!" Everyone suddenly realized that Lin Fengjiao had doubts about Lin Zixiang, at least they no longer believed in him.

That's why two different sets of orders were issued in succession.

On the one hand, he calmly comforted Lin Zixiang, and on the other hand, he began to investigate.

This is equivalent to a sign before taking action against Lin Yun. Moreover, once the investigation reveals something fishy, ​​Lin Zixiang will also be in trouble.

Because he lied about military information, he was suspected of defecting before the battle.

"The great elder is wise and mighty!! Bless my Lin family with eternal prosperity!!"

A group of Lin family elders stood up quickly and bowed their heads respectfully, as if they were paying homage to the emperor.

From this, it can be seen that the Lin family’s expanding ambitions are clearly revealed.

Lin Fengjiao looked at everyone with a smile, flicked her sleeves and said, "Let's all disperse!! Remember, we are waiting for the content of today's conversation. If even a word is spread out, I will make others' heads fall to the ground!"

"I will obey you!!"

Everyone then turned and left.

As everyone knows, among this group of people, there was a young man with a worried look on his face. He quickly walked out of the main hall and went straight to the side hall not far away.

He stood under a pillar and looked around. Seeing that no one was paying attention to him, he opened the palace door and walked in.

Lin Zixiang was in the hall, frowning and saying: "What did the great elder say just now?" '

The young man cupped his fists and said, "The Great Elder no longer trusts you! She ordered Lin Shan to send people to investigate Niubei Village, and also sent a stranger to Haocheng to hide. It seems that she doesn't trust Lin Jinbiao anymore!"

Lin Zixiang laughed at himself and said: "I knew it would be like this!!"

"Sir, what should we do? Our situation can be said to be very dangerous now!"

The young man looked worried. As a direct descendant of the Lin family, although he did not have the right to inherit the throne, he could still be considered a member of the new generation of the Lin family. As long as he developed step by step, he would have a bright future.

But his actual identity is just the illegitimate son of the Lin family.

It was Lin Zixiang who used the power in his hands to forcefully protect him, and he is where he is today.

Therefore, young people have always been dominated by Lin Zixiang.

"Don't worry!! They don't have any evidence yet, so they are conducting such a low-key investigation! However, we can't be unprepared! I have a secret letter here. Send someone you trust to hand this secret letter to In the hands of Lin Yun in Niubei Village! Remember, it must be handed over to Lin Yun, and no one can give it to anyone!!"

The young man took the letter with both hands, then turned and left.

Lin Zixiang stared at the scenery outside the paper window and murmured: "Lin Yun, I have staked my future on you, you must not let me down!!"

Lin Zixiang is not an ordinary person. He can be the chief envoy and can move between the Lin family and the court with ease, which shows his ability.

Being right and left is just a basic skill to survive in the officialdom, and he has already mastered it to the point of proficiency.
