Lin Yuantu walked into the living room with the servant, and saw Zhou Buyi and Zhuo Bufan drinking a cup of tea while watching someone write something on the letterhead.Lin Yuantu glanced at it, and it turned out that the person who wrote the letter was Hu Bubei.Originally, Lin Yuantu didn't pay much attention, just glanced at it, but he suddenly remembered something, and turned his head to look at Hu Bupei carefully.Even though Lin Yuantu has been reciting Buddhist scriptures to cultivate his morality and self-cultivation all these years, he was taken aback by Hu Bubei. The man in front of him with a face full of decadence and an air of decay is really Hu Bubei?How did he become like this?

Lin Yuantu remembered that Hu Bubei came to find him the night before yesterday, and he was so high-spirited and arrogant that he almost made Lin Yuantu think that he was the next head of the Huashan School.But in just a few hours, how did it become like this?Lin Yuantu looked at Zhou Buyi next to him, and thought to himself: "Could it be this little fox again?"

Zhou Buyi saw Lin Yuantu looking at Hu Bubei with suspicion in his eyes.Knowing that Lin Yuantu was frightened, he smiled ferociously in his heart.Regardless of what Lin Yuantu was thinking, he touched Zhuo Bufan, stood up and said, "I've seen Senior Lin."

Lin Yuantu said with a smile: "There is no need to be polite, the matter is settled?"

Zhou Buyi nodded and said, "It's resolved."

"That's good if it's resolved! The fast horse to Xiangyang is ready, when will you and this Young Master Zhuo start on the road?" Lin Yuantu said.

Xiangyang?What's the situation? Isn't it going to Nanyang?Why are you going to Xiangyang again?What was going on, Zhuo Bufan was confused by these two foxes.

Lin Yuantu saw Zhuo Bufan's appearance and knew that Zhuo Bufan didn't know what was going on, so he asked, "You haven't told Zhuo Shaoxia yet?"

Seeing this, Zhou Buyi scolded in his heart: "This old fox!" He scolded in his heart, but he didn't dare to show any dissatisfaction on his face. It was his luck to defeat Uncle Seventeen, but it was not so good for this old fox.Besides, there are still many things to be asked of him in the future, so he quickly explained to Zhuo Bufan: "Recently, many people have fled Jingxiang because of the heavy corvee of the imperial court and the annexation of local landlords. Is it true that a group of experienced old farmers transported grain from the Central Plains all the way?"

Zhuo Bufan thought for a while, and said: "Jingxiang refugee, senior brother, don't make up your mind."

Zhou Buyi frowned, thinking that the junior brother was going to say something about the difficulty of leaving his homeland: "Why?"

Zhuo Bufan stared at the teacup in his hand, as if something was attracting his attention, and said softly: "I don't know where the help came from, they have already reclaimed the fields locally."

"Uh..." Zhou Buyi didn't expect such an answer.But Zhuo Bufan's words are indeed reasonable. If you want to take a farmer who has land to another place where he is unfamiliar, that is simply a fantasy.Not to mention that he is just a disciple of a martial arts sect, even if the Emperor Yongle issued an edict, those peasants might not obediently obey his orders.But Lin Yuantu didn't tell himself about this, what was this old fox's plan?Also, where does this help come from?

Seeing Zhou Buyi looking at him, Lin Yuantu's heart tightened, this little fox was showing signs of getting angry.Lin Yuantu knew that although Zhou Buyi was not his opponent, if there was a fight here, the tables and chairs of huanghuali, jade cabbage, exquisitely carved jade huang, and those blue and white porcelains from the Yuan Dynasty and Song Dynasty If the official kiln is broken, you can buy it if you want to complete it... Besides, we are still discussing the matter of opening a semicolon in the Huguang Chief Envoy Division. If there is no Zhou Buyi's support...

"Don't worry, little friend. I don't know about this. Huguang has always been a forbidden area of ​​the Hengshan sect. My Fuwei Escort Bureau has not set up a branch there. A few days ago, the letter written by the little friend to the head of Hengshan Liu In the hands of head Liu, he has been in touch with head Liu recently about the opening of the semicolon. He has never inquired about the Jingxiang refugees. There are a lot of refugees. The old man gathered a group. I thought about sending them to Xiaoliuqiu. But since Xiaoyou needs manpower, I will give it to Xiaoyou."

Seeing Lin Yuantu like this, Zhou Buyi became even more annoyed in his heart: "Who doesn't know that you, an old fox, have always been impeccable in doing things? Besides, when have you ever been to a foreigner in the ten or so villages in Lin's Xiaoliuqiu? It seems that you have Now I know about the refugee in Jingxiang, thinking that I have hit a wall in Jingxiang, and I owe you this favor when I come back? Fortunately, Junior Brother Zhuo reminded me, otherwise I would have been fooled by you." But Lin Yuantu did everything. Now that this is up, Zhou Buyi can't say anything, he can only say: "Thank you, Senior Lin."

At this time, Hu Bubei put down his pen: "Big brother, the letter is finished."

Lin Yuantu was surprised again, but he knew what Hu Bubei's attitude towards Zhou Buyi was before, and Lin Yuantu didn't expect such a big change in his eagerness.But this is the Huashan faction's own family business, and it's not easy to inquire about it. After making arrangements to deliver the letter, they left.

Zhuo Bufan read the letter and asked: "Eldest brother, is this possible? There is such a coincidence that there was a storm just after setting out to sea. I don't really believe this. Uncle Liu..." Looking at Zhou Buyi Zhuo Bufan, who looked faintly angry, quickly changed his words: "... Can Liu Qingyan be believed? He is an old fox."

"I will believe it." Zhou Buyi closed his eyes, "If this letter was written by both of you and me, the old miscellaneous hair would definitely not believe it, but this letter was written by Junior Brother Hu, so even if he had some doubts, he would still believe it." Seriously."

At this time, a servant came in and said, "Young Xia Zhou, my old man has something to ask for you, please follow me to the study."

Zhou Buyi thought: "Why is this old fox looking for me? Let him alone. Could it be possible to keep me?" After making up his mind, Zhou Buyi turned to Zhuo Bufan and said, "Junior Brother Zhuo, stay here first and wait a while." For a while, I will discuss something with Senior Lin first."

Seeing this, Zhuo Bufan said: "Since brother has something to do, let's go first. It's okay for brother to wait here. It's great to have famous tea and cakes, and so many antiques from the previous dynasty for him to appreciate."

Zhou Buyi knew that he was a junior, and he learned the style of a literati from Ning Qinglin. He was like an antique famous inkstone or something on weekdays. He thought that the Huashan School didn't have much money to collect antiques in the past. Zhuo Bufan admired many valuable antiques for [-] yuan, so he let Zhuo Bufan go.But it's still not good to indulge in foreign things after all, but since Ning Qing and Lin Ning are all like this, I can't say anything about Zhuo Bufan, I shook my head and said to the boy: "Please lead the way." Follow the boy He walked all the way to the study, and when he reached the door of the study, the servant said to the door: "Old Master, Shaoxia Zhou has arrived."

Lin Yuantu's voice came from inside: "Little friend is here? Then come in."

The little boy waved his hand with a smile: "Please, Shaoxia Zhou."

"Thank you for leading the way." Zhou Buyi nodded and walked into the study.Seeing that Lin Yuantu, Lin Zhongxiong, and Lin Zhennan were all there, it was not good to attack Lin Yuantu, so he saluted: "Senior Lin invited the junior here, why? The heads are all there, so it must be a big event. I don’t know what the big event is, let the three generations of the Lin family come together, and you’re looking for me?"

"The Northern Expedition is going to start again today," Lin Yuantu said calmly. "The news came from the capital just now."

"Uh..." Zhou Buyi's first reaction when he heard the news was that he couldn't believe it. He knew that today's fourth Northern Expedition will start in August next year. Why is it that rumors are spreading now? ?Has history been changed by oneself? : "How is it possible? Isn't Cai Banshi returning to court today? Where did this news come from? Is it reliable?"

I can't blame Zhou Buyi for being so fierce. Every time the Northern Expedition, some of the Lin family's ships would be confiscated to transport food and pay. But in the current situation, if the Lin family's ships were requisitioned, it would undoubtedly be a heavy blow to the Huashan faction.It was also a blow to Zhou Buyi himself, because this voyage to the south...was his initiative.

Lin Zhongxiong brought a cup of tea from the table and handed it to Zhou Buyi: "The tea has just been brewed, and I'm waiting for you to drink it." The news from Chen Shangshu is absolutely reliable. It is said that it is because I felt that the results of the Northern Expedition this time were too small, so I thought about continuing the Northern Expedition next year."

Zhou Buyi never thought of this reason: "Where are the ministers in the court? Isn't that Xia Yuanji quite good at talking? Why don't you persuade him? There are also Hu Yan, Yang Rong, Yang Shiqi, Yang Pu, Jin Chun Li, Liu Guan, and Song Li didn't come out to say a word? This year, they sent troops to the Northern Expedition, and they spent a lot of money to achieve such a small result. Today, instead of learning from the lesson, they are going to make a big conquest. This... this... this country is his Zhu family Yes! He doesn’t cherish it so much?!” Hearing this, the three generations of the Lin family stared at Zhou Buyi, they didn’t expect Zhou Buyi to say this.Although this is what all the landlords, gentry, court officials in the world want to say but dare not say.

Looking at Lin Yuantu, Lin Zhongxiong, and Lin Zhennan looking at him in a daze, Zhou Buyi knew that he had made a slip of the tongue, and quickly "coughed" and changed his words: "Even if he doesn't care about the lives of the people today, his own body will You have to take care of it, your body is your own size. He is already over 60 years old this year, and he has to personally lead the army, can he bear it?"

At this time, Lin Zhongxiong said: "The Ministry of Industry of the Song Dynasty has already gone last month. Xia Shangshu already offended Longyan for the Northern Expedition last year, and was imprisoned by Jinshang and ransacked his home and sent him to prison. Jin Shilang and Sanyang will go to offend Longyan Yan? That is to say, the crown prince and several ministers are still fighting hard. That’s why there is no order to issue the Northern Expedition now, but I don’t think the crown prince can last long..."

Hearing this, Zhou Buyi breathed a sigh of relief. History is still running according to the original track, and his advantages have not been offset. "Don't worry, the prince is soft on the outside and strong on the inside, and he understands the hardships of the people. I think the day of the Northern Expedition should be far away. If the Mongol Tartars are wise and sensible, and don't come to provoke them, I'm afraid they won't start the Northern Expedition today. At this age It's time to rest."

"But if you really want to launch a northern expedition today, brother Zhou, what will you do?" At this time, Lin Zhennan, who had been silent for a long time, spoke, but Zhou Buyi was dumbfounded by one sentence.
