Chapter 629: The Scourge of the World's Winds
can be different from Lin Mao and Zhao's mother, who are introverted and only seek stability from their children, Li Hu's old son Li Sheng is like the second master of Linshui Village, since Lin Mao knew about Li Hu's heroic battle, this butcher old boy is as arrogant as midsummer, fiery and eager to burn the prairies, proud of people, and the spectrum is higher than the sky, so that when the villagers see Li Sheng, they have to call for Li Sheng's old man to be well, and Li Sheng will let him go.
Of course, the changes of these old families in Linshui Village are not like this, and the situation of Zhao Yuan returning with the victory of the thieves has really strengthened the military prestige of the Bei'an Army, and it has made the people of the four counties who follow Lin Xiujun's agricultural decree feel convinced.
In the eyes of those poor peasant households, a military march that can make a living for the people must be a good military march, and it is precisely for this reason that the barren people outside the four counties are actually thinking wildly, envying the households in Linshui County, and many people are moving with their families to Linshui County.
It's just that such changes have invisibly stimulated the officials of Li, Xiang, Yan and other cities.
In Xiangcheng, when the news of Lin Xiujun's decree came, the county guard He Du was quite annoyed.
"That poor boy is really presumptuous, if you want the old man to say, you should put him in prison and rectify it well!"
"My lord, having said that, but the Bei'an Army is in the limelight at the moment, with Linshui County as the center, the villages and counties within a radius of fifty or sixty miles are all from the Bei'an Order, but they have thrown the official orders of Lincheng behind, and what's more, the people in Lincheng have all shut up like Wang Ba's shrinking shell, let's stay hundreds of miles, don't say bad things!"
He Ji was quite appreciative of Lin Xiu's righteous deeds, so he had a few less hostile intentions in his heart, but the other officials were not as generous as him.
An Long, the envoy of the Xu officials, also objected: "Commander He, you can't say that, if the military and peasant decrees of the Bei'an Army continue to be implemented for a long time, our Xiangcheng will definitely not be much smaller than the Lincheng officials!" ”
"Lord He, since this decree came two days ago, there has been a phenomenon of people leaving outside the county in all counties, although there are not many, but in the long run, it will definitely become a trend, at that time, the people under the rule of Xiangcheng will be ten rooms and nine empty, what will be done?"
Fu Cheng Xu Qiuran said it carefully, and when He Du heard it, his anger increased by three points.
"No, we must not let the military prestige of the Bei'an Army continue to develop, otherwise in the future, there will only be soldiers left in the northern Xinjiang, who knows the official's order?"
As soon as He Du spoke, He Ji didn't say much, and when his mansion meeting ended, all the officials left one after another, He Du left He Ji and Ling Tong and said: "Recently, the world has changed very quickly, the new emperor has ascended the throne, and there will be any chaos if you don't keep it, you two hurry up and prepare Xiangcheng military affairs to ensure that the soldiers will be able to do it, as for the decree of the Bei'an Army, it must be contained, I will contact other county officials in these days, and after the discussion is completed, taking advantage of the turmoil of the four wild thieves, the official will suppress Lincheng and protect Xiangcheng under its rule." ”
The commander of the Xiangcheng marching battalion made He Ji's mansion. Houfu Water Pavilion Garden.
He Tong and He Qing sat on the edge of the water pavilion, and in the face of He Qing's dull and unhappy appearance, He Tong said, "Sister, why do you have such an expression?" Could it be that the wedding date is approaching, and the pressure in my heart has risen sharply! ”
"Little girl, don't talk more!"
He Qing pretended to reprimand, He Tong stuck out his tongue, but after thinking about it, what He Tong said was not wrong, this has been dragging on for three years, but Ling Tian is still obedient and respectful to He Qing, from the bottom of his heart, He Qing doesn't dislike Ling Tong, but he doesn't like it, but Ling Tian treats He Qing sincerely, and now He Du has made up his mind and agreed to Ling Tong's request to marry his son, just waiting for the end of mid-autumn and the beginning of the snow to marry Ling Tian.
Inexplicably upset, He Qing secretly came to He Tong to find peace, but it was only half an hour before He Tong's family came to report: "Eldest Miss, Second Miss, Young Master Ling Tian is here!" ”
Hearing this, He Tong smiled: "Please!" ”
"Wait!" He Qing said: "I want to be quiet for a while and let him go back!" ”
"This..."The family didn't know what to do for a while, Rao is He Tong said: "Sister, let him come, maybe something is wrong?" Otherwise, he wouldn't have found my house! ”
Not long after, Ling Tian came in and came behind the two, Ling Tian smiled softly, He Qing ignored it, Ling Tian was embarrassed, let him take out a box from the belt and hand it to He Qing.
"This is the jade bracelet I bought for you from Li Cheng, the meaning is very good!"
He Tong took it out first, and at a glance, the condition was absolutely top-grade, and then He Tong pretended to be jealous: "I said Brother Ling, why don't you have my gift when you come to my house?" Don't forget, but I'll let you in! ”
"Hehe, Second Miss, how could I forget you in the future!" After that, Ling Tian took out a pair of jade pendants: "This is for you, you golden ghost spirit, you should also find someone's home!" This pair of jade pendants has been calculated by the Taoist, and it will ensure that you find the person you like in the dark! ”
Hearing this, He Tong was stunned, and then a person appeared in front of him, but that person had already married a wife and advanced to a high position, how could she climb up?
"Hitomi, what's wrong with you?"
In the distraction, He Qing called in a low voice, He Tong came back to his senses, raised his eyes, He Qing and Ling Tong both looked at her with strange eyes, and at the end Ling Tong smiled: "The second young lady's expression is completely the appearance of missing her sweetheart!" ”
"No nonsense!"
He Tong was a little anxious, He Qing saw the opportunity to tease this little girl, how could she let it go, for a while, the two of them were laughing, but He Qing observed the strength of her words, she found that although Ling Tian on the side was smiling and obedient, but under the laughter, he was a little heavy, and in doubt, He Qing said: "Don't you have something on your mind?" ”
"Nope!" Ling Tian shook his head.
He Qing frowned: "You know my character!" ”
Ling Tian was afraid that He Qing would be angry, so he whispered, "Qing'er, maybe I'm going to lead the army to the battle..."
As soon as these words came out, both of them were stunned, and then He Qing was anxious: "Going on the expedition, why?" There is no war in all directions, where are you going? ”
"If my guess is correct, it should be where the Lincheng Bei'an Army is... Linshui County! ”
"What?"
These words made He Tong stunned, looking at the puzzled appearance of the two, Ling Tian smiled bitterly: "Two days ago, the news spread in Lincheng, the Bei'an Army's military and peasant decrees fell in all directions, so that half of the people in Lincheng were under the rule of the Bei'an Army, and the Lincheng officials were slapped in the face, not even a fart, and now there are relocated households in our Xiangcheng territory, although there are not many, but if we can't stop the prestige of the military and peasant decrees, wait until the spring of next year, our Xiangcheng territory is only afraid of ten rooms and nine emptiness, which is even more terrifying than the raging thief wind!" Therefore, the county guard ordered my father and General He Ji to prepare the military affairs of Xiangcheng, and when the other cities completed the negotiation and union, they would suppress the Bei'an Army and force it to retreat and take power! ”
Listening to these words, He Tong and He Qing, as women, naturally didn't understand it, but Ling Tian, as a person in the army, knew the stakes very well, with Lin Zhongyi's personality and the current power of the Bei'an Army, he would definitely not take the official family in his eyes, but the result of such a stalemate was a war, and Ling Tian was also quite irritable for a while.
