Yang Lin was proud, and was about to get up and excuse himself a little, when suddenly a scribe in his forties stood up and shouted no.

The duck was about to be cooked, and someone actually came to grab the cooked duck, Yang Lin was quite unhappy in his heart, and Yin Chengqi, Ouyang Zhi and others next to him reprimanded him repeatedly: "Gou Weiyi, what nonsense are you talking about, my family has made remarkable achievements since the acting governor of the county, and now everyone jointly elects the adult as the prefect, what nonsense are you talking about here?" ”

Gou Weiyi walked to the middle of the hall with disdain, and arched his hand to Yang Lin: "General, the prefect's lobby is the place where the prefect convenes the village gentry and elders. ”

Yang Lin frowned, quite annoyed, in the Ming Dynasty, even if the generals in the army saw Xiucai or something, they were polite.

In the barbarian Qing Dynasty, before Zuo Zongtang left the mountain, he dared to reprimand the general soldiers in the army in public and asked him to kneel and salute.

This Gou Weiyi is good, he keeps saying that he is a general, although it is an honorific title, but his words and deeds undoubtedly tell everyone that Yang Lin is just a martial artist, in the Ming Dynasty, how can a martial artist take on the important task of the prefect?

After thinking about it, Yang Lin looked at him left and right, and said with a smile: "This official passed the county examination at the age of thirteen, passed the government examination at the age of fourteen, passed the hospital examination at the age of sixteen, and participated in the township examination at the age of nineteen.

And although Mr. Gou is rich, he seems to be just a person. ”

This is the imperial examination experience of the master of the body, Yang Lin expects that although he is not a super scholar, he can still get this kind of imperial examination experience.

Sure enough, after listening to Yang Lin's words, everyone was amazed, and the Sichuan Xie Yuan (the first place in the provincial imperial examination during the township examination, that is, the champion of the provinces in the previous life, the merry and talented Tang Bohu is also the Xie Yuan of Nanzhili) Zou Jianchen stood up and arched his hand: "Brother Ruzhen is too modest, who can have smooth sailing in the imperial examination, take it as follows, although he won this Xie Yuan, but in the past few years, he has also failed many township examinations."

Adults can be paid tribute at a young age, if adults are distracted, and only read the books of sages, so it will not be many years, and they will definitely be high school leaders, jinshi, and even the top three in the future. ”

Xie Yuan can be said to be a super scholar in a province, and now this super scholar has said so, and everyone has stretched out their thumbs to express their admiration.

In the hall, Gou Weiyi's face was blue and purple, and the whole person was not uncomfortable, so he endured the grievances in his heart, and arched his hand: "The general's imperial examination is brilliant, and he is ashamed of himself."

The general Xiucai was born, so you should know my big law. ”

Slightly stunned, this Da Ming Law seems to have been read by the deity, but now I don't have much impression.

After thinking about it, Yang Lin continued to ask truthful questions and answered: "Everyone, since ancient times, literati have been despised by each other, and many madmen think that they are the best in the world, which is unacceptable.

As the saying goes, half-irrigation rings, you must know that you are full of losses.

Brother Gou, although Ma Yuanli was killed in battle, and Zhang Guangcai, Wang Jiye and others led their troops to retreat, we are surrounded by rogues and local tyrants.

Ladies and gentlemen, let's not be a symposium like that Liu Biao, we must reorganize our armaments to prevent the resurgence of the Liukou, we will exterminate the Liukou, and return the people to a bright future.

Ladies and gentlemen, do you think it's good? ”

When the supporters heard this, they shouted loudly.

Seeing that the general trend had gone, Shi Jinchen, the former prefect who was sitting opposite, stood up and arched his hand in all directions, and said: "Everyone, Shi has a saying, dare to ask General Yang, this time to convene the township gentry to discuss the matter, it was originally advocated by the general.

Everyone came to the meeting with the feeling of the general's righteousness, how could the general say that everyone was a guest?

Also, of course, everyone should speak freely in the deliberations, the general is proud of his own eloquence, and he does not let this Mr. Gou speak at all, this, is this the general's style in the army?"

This remarks about the general probably wants to tell everyone that Yang Lin is just a military attaché, and even accuses the prefect hall of being regarded as a big tent in the army, and reprimanding the sages in the township as soldiers in the barracks.

Although Yang Lin was quite annoyed, Shi Jinchen was the former prefect of Shunqing Mansion after all, and he had been an official for a long time, so he was naturally not angry and arrogant, and everyone did not dare to argue with Shi Jinchen when they heard him say this.

Yang Lin laughed, stood up and apologized to Shi Jinchen and the others, and said, "Mr. Shi, don't be angry, I'm not saying that your Mr. Shi is a panelist, and this Mr. Gou is not a panelist."

I hope that everyone will work together, and I hope that everyone can resist Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong together, instead of Li Zicheng to surrender Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong to surrender to Zhang Xianzhong as in the past, in this case, don't you become a slave of the three families?

Mr. Shi, Mr. Gou, do you think that's the truth? Ladies and gentlemen, don't you want to protect the territory and the people? ”

In the feudal dynasty, in order to avoid officials being officials, the system of flowing officials, or appointing officials in different places, was implemented.

That is to say, the prefect of Shunqing Prefecture is outside the province of Sichuan, and these officials rely on the royal authority and use local officials to suppress the locality.

And now, although Hongguang Emperor Zhu Yousong is the emperor in Jiangning (Nanjing), the Manchu Qing Dynasty has entered Beijing, and there are two major domestic robes, Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong, and the royal authority is not there.

And Yang Lin is a local scholar, although there are dozens of people in Shunqing Mansion and deputy lists, but everyone is a scholar, and they have also had contacts in the past, and they are quite close.

Now seeing that the volunteers are strong and strong, Yang Lin is iron-hearted to fight for the Qing prefect, everyone is a human spirit, they have already seen the situation, and they are happy to be served by locals.

In addition, what is more important is that after the implementation of the new policy, the opportunities for scholars have increased greatly, each village elects a village head, each township is appointed by the government, and each county elects a councilor.

These talents and people have a certain reputation and prestige in the local area, and of course they are the main candidates for township mayors and councilors.

Whether it is the view of the portal or the benefit of themselves, many people support Yang Lin as a matter of course.

Seeing the continuous applause around him, Shi Jinchen was extremely annoyed, Yang Lin not only accused himself of being a guest, but also accused himself of successively defecting to the Dashun Army and the Daxi Army.

Gou Weiyi's face was even more ugly, but now that he had forcibly come out, he had no way to retreat, so he had to give up his hand and say: "My lord, you keep saying that you are a tribute, have you ever seen that I have served as both a general in the army and a military general of the prefect?"

It seems that the other party still fights himself on the side of the general, Yang Lin smiled and replied: "Mr. Shi, Mr. Gou, of course I have the tradition of literati and soldiers, and how many Jinshi serve as governors and governors.

Although there are some people who don't know soldiers at all and don't dare to watch the battlefield killing scenes, it is my Ming tradition that literati pawn soldiers. Since the literati can serve as governors and governors, they can govern the army and the people.

What's wrong with serving as a prefect and a general at the same time?

I have repeatedly emphasized here that this official is from a liberal arts scholar, and this official is not a martial arts examiner, a martial artist.

The official teacher, the former governor Chen Shiqi Chen appointed him as a magistrate, and later turned into Pengzhou Shouyu Qianzong, why have you forgotten these things?

Mr. Gou just mentioned the Da Ming Law, which is strange, is the Da Ming Law against the literati in charge of the army?

If this is really the case, did the emperors of all dynasties and the governors of all dynasties violate my great law? ”

When Gou Weiyi heard this, he shook his head again and again, and said vigorously that the Ming Law emphasizes the separation of civil and military affairs, and now that Yang Lin is a general in the army and has become a prefect, this matter is too powerful and may cause suspicion in the imperial court, so it is far from the blessing of the volunteer army, nor the blessing of the military and the people of Shunqing.

Gou Weiyi suggested that it would be better to nominate one person as the prefect, and Yang Lin should be a full-time general, so that the civil and military cooperation would reduce the suspicion of the imperial court and reduce the burden on Yang Lin.

Yang Lin knew that the other party was trying to see the dagger, and since this was the case, there was no need for him to hide it anymore.

With a look behind him, Ouyang straightened out of the ranks, and the first people arched their hands and said: "Recommend one person as the prefect, if you really find it, I think the volunteers are also acceptable."

In the peaceful and prosperous era, a person like Mr. Shi who was born in the imperial examination can still govern one side, but suddenly suffered a big change, Mr. Shi first voted for the Dashun Army, and then voted for the Great Western Army, if a person like Mr. Shi is elected as the prefect, is it that Zhang Xianzhong calls us to surrender and surrender Zhang Xianzhong again? ”

Shi Jinchen was furious, slapped the case in the hall, the entire teacup fell to the ground, stood up and glared at Yang Lin and said: "Yang Lin Yang Ruzhen, the old man knows that he has no talent to lead troops to fight, but if he had a decent army in his hands that day, would he surrender so easily?"

You Yang Lin and Yang Ruzhen are greedy for power, why do you want to make people spew blood and accuse the old man like this?"

Yang Lin stood up and arched his hand: "Mr. Shi, this Ouyang Zhi is straightforward, he wants to say whatever he wants, and I hope that the adults will not be angry."

Mr. Shi, gentlemen, leading troops to fight, mainly fighting money and food.

The volunteers were recruited from all over the country, which was determined by Chen Shiqi, the governor of Sichuan at that time, and the recruits were paid 1 tael of silver per month in the first three months, and 1 tael and 5 yuan of silver after passing the examination in three months, all of which were determined in the past.

There are now more than 5,000 people in the volunteer army, and everyone needs to open their mouths to eat, and everyone needs to pay their monthly salary on time.

If other expenses are added, the maintenance of such an army alone will require at least 10,000 taels of silver and at least 3,000 loads of grain per month.

If it can ensure that there is no problem with the supply of salaries for our volunteers, this official is willing to nominate him as the prefect of Shunqing. ”

Shi Jinchen was shocked, although there were tens of thousands of taels of silver in his family, but it was from his own hardships and corruption, how could he pay out of his own pocket?

Raise money from the local government, if Yang Lin doesn't support it, and the volunteers don't support it, even if it is forcibly apportioned in the past, it can't be done.

In the Ming Dynasty, because of the military salary, there were many mutinies, even if he became the prefect, it was difficult to guarantee that he would not be killed by Yang Lin's mutiny.

Thinking of this, beads of sweat rolled down Shi Jinchen's face one by one, first asking why he needed so much money and food, and finally he was unwilling to admit defeat, saying that if Yang Lin was also the prefect of Shunqing, he was worried that Yang Lin would support the army and respect himself.

However, Yin Chengqi, Ouyang Zhi, Zou Jianchen and others were very persistent and implored Yang Lin to take up the post of Shunqing prefect.

Yang Lin knew that it would be difficult to get a unanimous election, and after seeing that the other party was temporarily stopped and had nothing to say, he immediately stepped up to the throne in the hall and announced his appointment as the prefect of Shunqing.

Although Yang Lin knew the cruelty of the political struggle, he had to show his generosity at first.

In the name of uniting against the Liukou, Shi Jinchen and Zhao Sixuan were appointed as fellow acquaintances, and Tang Jietai, Luo Mengke, Ouyang Zhi, and Zhou Zheng were appointed to help deal with government affairs.

Sichuan in Qingfu appointed Zou Jianchen, who had fled to Shunjie Yuan, as the governor of Nanchong to implement the new policy in Nanchong.

Everyone saw that Yang Lin reused his political enemies, which made people see a different mind, and they congratulated him again and again.
