Lord of the House

Vol 9 Chapter 57: scolding mother

Entering the government office, Liu Zhi took out an edict from his spacious sleeve robe, with a smile on his face, he said to Lin Fu, "Liu wants to congratulate Mr. Lin again here..."

At this time, there would naturally be no edict from the capital. The edict in Liu Zhi's hand should be for the official to report himself. I don't know what new official position Ning Wangfu and Jiangning Six Division can grant him.

Thinking so, Lin Fu smiled calmly and said, "A certain imperial court's recovery of Mingzhou should be a matter of congratulations."

"Only Mr. Lin can take credit and not be proud, and he is a model of the world's commanding officials," Liu Zhi said. In his hand, he held the edict signed by the six departments of Jiangning and Ning Wang's mansion. Expand to read, "Dr. Yinqing Guanglu, Chongzhou Bo, and Huaidong's system make Lin Fulin the backbone of the country and the mainstay of the court. He led the Huaidong Army to attack eastern Zhejiang and severely defeated the Fujian thieves. This achievement is very special. Everyone in Jiangning was not ready to hear it, and they all said that they would send flying envoys to Beijing to report the victory.

Lin Bing scolded inwardly when he heard it: If it was really exciting, why wait until the news of the capture of Mingzhou's capital city reached Jiangning before sending people urgently? This kind of official words, Lin Fu just listened to it, and did not know if such words really came from Yuan Jianwu's mouth, Zhang Xitong's mouth, or Yue Lengqiu's face-to-face teaching Jiyi?

In the previous words, the greatest value is that Jiangning officially agreed with Huaidong's attack on East Zhejiang, and the rest were empty words. Lin Fu quietly waited to hear Liu Zhi read the following content.

"... Of course, East Zhejiang needs Huaidong Army to forge ahead with determination to contain and attack Fujian thieves, so I discussed with Governor Yue and the princes, and decided to set up an envoy of East Zhejiang to rule Mingzhou, and to attack Fujian thieves on the eastern front. In military affairs, I hope that Lord Lin can take all the hard work and lead it, and try our best to eliminate the traitors for the imperial court!" Liu Zhi finished reading, shoved the edict into Lin Fu's hands, and said with a smile, "Lord Lin is promoted and made a fortune, do you think I want to Congratulations, congratulations to you?"

"It's all hard work, what's there to congratulate him?" Lin Fu calmly took over the edict, but he didn't expect Jiang Ning to let him also lead the post of Zhedong system envoy. As for the size of the defense zone under the jurisdiction of the envoy of the Eastern Zhejiang system, the edict did not state it. Could it be said that all the sites in Eastern Zhejiang belonged to Huaidong?

Chen Mingzhe stood aside and sighed inwardly: Jiangning envoy Lin Fu also led the Zhedong system, but he clearly told Lin Fu that as long as the Huaidong Army could take the territory from the luxury family in eastern Zhejiang, no matter how big or small, it would be a In addition to breaking the jar, he hoped that Huaidong would be able to fight with the She family to lose both.

Huaidong officials, Meng Xinshi, Mao Tengyuan and other representatives of local forces in eastern Zhejiang came to congratulate Lin Fu and lead the envoy of Eastern Zhejiang.

It is more justifiable for Huaidong to garrison the army in Mingzhou and set up a battalion in the east of Zhejiang to control the local military equipment. To say that the other is not necessary, it has no substantive significance. Could it be that Jiangning can still let Huaidong take Mingzhou Mansion out of his hands?

Jiang Ning is also a trick that uses retreat as advance, and gave Lin Fu the title of envoy of the Eastern Zhejiang system, hoping that Lin Fu can make some concessions in the arrangements of other officials.

Lin Fu was worried about the situation in the north, but he wanted to hold a banquet to entertain Liu Zhi, Meng Xinshi, Chen Mingzhe and others, and also invite Mao Tengyuan and other representatives of the affiliated forces in eastern Zhejiang to the banquet.

During the banquet, Meng Xinshi took advantage of the wine and sat under Liu Zhi's head, leaned forward and asked Lin Fu: "Eastern Zhejiang is frequently hit by wars, the people are struggling, and every family has been exploited by the Fujian thieves! Now, let’s rest and recuperate with the people—the Dukes of Jiangning intend to ask the counties of Mingzhou to be exempted from money and grain for three years, but this matter needs to be discussed with Master Lin, what does Master Lin think?”

Lin Bie's face sank a little, Liu Zhi gave a sweet jujube in front of him, and Meng Xinshi swung the stick at this moment.

Jiang Ning wanted to indiscriminately pardon all the local forces in eastern Zhejiang that had succumbed to the extravagant family's rule, and reduced or exempted the collection of money and grain for three years, in order to win over all the local forces in eastern Zhejiang.

Jiang Ning did not act arbitrarily, and even asked Meng Xinshi to ask Lin Bie's opinion in public at the banquet, which was also malicious.

If Lin Fu objected to the reduction or exemption of money and grain, and he was a bad person, he also won the hearts of Jiang Ning; if Lin Fu agreed, he would not be able to raise money and grain from eastern Zhejiang to supplement military funds within three or five years. The long-term confrontation between the families will bring great pressure on Huaidong.

"Mr. Meng, what do you think?" Without waiting for Meng Xinshi's answer, Lin Bie slammed his chopsticks on the table, stared at Meng Xinshi with a bluffing face, and scolded, "Who the **** is that? What is the idea of ​​cutting off the son and the grandson? The She family still has 50,000 to 60,000 elites in Kuaiji, Dongyang and southern Zhejiang, plus the strength of western Zhejiang, there are 150,000 or 60,000, to protect the peace of Mingzhou, and to fight the enemy in the west To maintain the system of suppression, it is necessary to recruit 40,000 or 50,000 soldiers and horses in Mingzhou! Some people propose to reduce or exempt the money and food of Mingzhou, then I will lead the Huaidong Army to withdraw tomorrow. Let whoever wants to be whoever should go!" Having said this, he stood up indignantly, and flung his sleeves to go to the back hall.

Lin Fu put on an official robe, gentle and elegant, and he was very pleasant this night, who would have thought that he would suddenly swear at his mother!

Chen Mingzhe's face was slightly red, and the idea of ​​pardoning the sins of all the families in eastern Zhejiang for investing in extravagant families and reducing or exempting money and food was made by Chen Xiyan. This time, Chen Xiyan was going to cross the river to come to Mingzhou, but he fell ill before leaving and was weak, so he asked Chen Mingzhe to accompany Liu Zhi and Meng Xinshi.

Liu Zhi and Meng Xinshi were both stunned and looked at each other, but there was an unremarkable middle-aged man in the hall who left the case and knelt down and shouted loudly: "The thieves from Fujian are bandit Zhedong, the families and the villagers are weak and submissive to the thieves. If you don't dare to resist it, your sins deserve ten thousand deaths. Today, I hope that the adults will lead the king to come, such as Mu Ganlin, but also sincerely fear for sins. A certain family and other families dare not ask for forgiveness, but only want to have the opportunity to make meritorious crimes. If there is still the greed of reducing or exempting money and grain, it is really shameless, and what face is there to see the world? The matter of money and grain reduction, please don't mention it. Please levy an additional charge of money and grain: one is to atone for the crime of surrendering to the families and the villagers; secondly, the money and grain are used in peace and tranquility and to prevent Fujian thieves. Some and the families are afraid that it will not be used enough, causing Mingzhou to be smashed by Fujian thieves again. ——Please don't abandon Mingzhou!" At the foot of the hall, the bricks kowtowed to the sound of "bang bang", Mao Tengyuan and other representatives of local forces in Mingzhou had wrong views, and they all left the case and knelt under the hall to ask Lin Fu to stop. .

Although everyone hopes to be freed from crime and food, smart people know that Jiang Ning is only sending favors, and the lives and deaths of the families in Mingzhou are actually in the hands of Lin Fu.

Naturally, Lin Fu would not lead the Huaidong Army to withdraw, but Lin Fu cut a few heads for banditry in Mingzhou to make himself feel better. Which one can Jiang Ning protect?

The more you think about it, the less you dare to expect anything.

Lin Tie stopped beside the screen and turned to look at the people who were kneeling in the hall. After he came back, he was busy dealing with Liu Zhi and Meng Xinshi. Although Fu Qinghe had introduced him to the people from Mingzhou, there were too many people. For a while, I couldn't remember the name of this unremarkable middle-aged man.

Lin Bie's eyes rolled around, and Fu Qinghe knew that he didn't remember Ye Junan's name, he sat in front of the case and said, "Sir, calm down, I think what Mr. Junan said is still the sincerity of the people in Mingzhou, don't give it to the traitor. Provoked the relationship between the adults and the people of Mingzhou!"

Liu Zhi and Meng Xinshi didn't dare to say anything, Lin Fu both scolded their mother, and Fu Qinghe even pointed out that this was a traitorous remark to sow discord. What else could they argue?

"Humph!" Lin Fu snorted coldly. After being reminded by Fu Qinghe, he thought of Ye Junan.

Ye Junan is really a figure who knows Mingzhe to protect himself.

Ye Junan had passed the imperial examination at the age of 30, but he had no intention of becoming an official. He kept Tian Zhaigeng and read books for pleasure. He was a very important lecturer of the Siming School, and was called "Mr. Junan" by people in eastern Zhejiang. After the She family captured eastern Zhejiang, the Ye family offered fields and money in order to benefit the whole family, but Ye Junan did not, and none of the other Ye family members served in the governor's mansion and the county in the east of Zhejiang under the jurisdiction of She Feixiong, maintaining a good relationship with the She family. Far. After the Huaidong Army raided and landed, the Ye family was also the first group to send people to secretly contact Huaidong, but it was not until the Mingzhou mansion was captured that the Ye family sent people to bring money and food to the army!

From the behavior of the Ye family, Ye Junan's talent and temperament are very vague, more like the kind of person who speculates and watches the wind and changes, so Lin Fu is not impressed by him.

But Lin Bie left the stage in anger, and Ye Junan was able to say these words in a second thought. With such a state, no matter how real or fake his kowtow was, it made people feel new to him and should not be underestimated.

"Mr. Jun An, please get up," Lin Fu walked back to the case and sat down again, and said to the people running down the hall, "I am also worried about the situation in eastern Zhejiang, and I don't want to be mistaken by the villain~www.readwn.com ~You can't say anything, and you don't mean to blame the families in eastern Zhejiang!"

Chen Mingzhe thought in his heart, how can we prevent these words from reaching the ears of his teacher, Chen Xiyan?

Liu Zhi cursed in his heart: Chen Xiyan, an old man, no wonder he pretended not to come. Fortunately, I had more attention. Meng Xinshi robbed him of these words. If it wasn't for the water bandits who robbed the boat and lost his life on the way back, he would find him. Who is complaining? How could such a simple and rudimentary tactic be useful to Huaidong?

Meng Xinshi's old face was flushed, and he couldn't argue or explain, but looking at the faces of the people in eastern Zhejiang, he knew that what Chen Xiyan taught him was still useful, but he didn't expect Lin Fu's attitude to be so strong. It is true that Huaidong is likely to be the second luxury home.

Then there was no atmosphere just now, and the banquet soon reached the time when the wine was exhausted; everyone resigned and left.

Lin Fu instructed Chen Kui, who was in charge of the defense of Mingzhou City at this time, to say: "Mingzhou has just returned, and the night is not over yet. You must take care of the safety of Liu, Meng and other adults, and the post house will send some people!"

"Thank you, Lord Lin for your concern..." Meng Xinshi said with a bow. From Lin Fu's face, he couldn't tell whether he planned to strengthen their protection or to strengthen their surveillance.

Of course, Lin Fu wanted to prevent Liu Zhi and the others from getting too close to the local forces in eastern Zhejiang. When Liu Zhi and the others left first, Ye Junan and others also came forward to say goodbye, Lin Fu kept Ye Junan and said: "I have no other hobbies, I like drinking tea, I just came to Mingzhou today, and I want to come here to prepare a bag from Chongzhou for me. Good tea, Mr. Jun An would like to accompany me to drink it?"

When it comes to good tea, Siming Mountain produces good tea, but Lin Fu just made a random excuse to leave Ye Junan in public.

Ye Junan said: "Your Excellency is called, Junan is more respectful than obeying orders!" My QT room is open! More vulgar official QT room number [9167] Click to enter
