Chapter 529: I don't know the true face of Lushan
Xu Lun, the prefect of Fuzhou, is a native of Shandong, a third-class jinshi, and belongs to the camp of the Qi Party. Heavenly Sounds "." ⒉
Originally, the three parties of Qi, Chu and Zhejiang formed an alliance, although there were contradictions between them, but they could generally get along in harmony.
However, this situation changed after the death of Emperor Wanli, and the Donglin Party, which had been in a suppressed position, rose quickly through Emperor Taichang, and soon took control of the cabinet, taking advantage of the young Emperor of the Apocalypse to launch a fierce offensive against the three parties of Qi, Chu and Zhejiang, which made Xu Lun's situation begin to become difficult.
After the Donglin Party returned to the center of power, it naturally wanted to install officials of the Donglin Party in the capital and localities, especially the official positions above the prefect level were the focus of contention, and the competition for the chief officials of those rich prefectures reached a white-hot level.
Taking Han Advocate this time as an example, he had already asked Xu Lun for trouble several times to beat him, which made Xu Lun feel extremely aggrieved but helpless, who let Han Advocate is Fujian patrol press the imperial history just pressed him.
The so-called good birds choose trees to perch, Xu Lun has a hunch that the Donglin Party is menacing this time, and the three parties of Qi, Chu and Zhejiang may be difficult to resist, so he has the idea of changing the court.
But he is a member of the Qi Party, and if it is not easy to defect to the Donglin Party, he first needs to have a referrer, and the more he can get in touch with the top level of the Donglin Party, the better.
Originally, Xu Lun wanted to go through the door of Han Zhan, but now that he has a Li Hongyu who is good friends with the leader of the Donglin Party, he naturally has to choose Li Hongyu, if he can catch Ye Xianggao, he will also belong to the core of the Donglin Party in the future.
Of course, this kind of villain behavior of changing the court is despised by the people in the officialdom, and they think that they have lost the integrity of a scholar, but then again, the integrity is just a false name, and it can't be eaten, so it is better to have something practical to do.
After all, not all scholars can adhere to the integrity that the literati admire, otherwise there would not be many civil officials who chose to defect to the Qing court after the fall of the Ming Dynasty.
Knowing that Li Hongyu and Youlan agreed to teach Xu Mansion's music and rhythm, Xu Lun couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and secretly felt a burst of joy in his heart, but fortunately he reacted quickly and didn't let others take the lead.
In order to show respect for Li Hongyu and Youlan, Xu Lun deliberately held a formal apprenticeship ceremony, in order to avoid gossip from the outside world, so he did not invite outsiders, but the gift of kneeling and bowing three times is naturally essential.
In the final analysis, Xu Lun, who wants to change the court, is a little guilty in his heart, knowing that Li Hongyu and Ye Xianggao have a good relationship, and he still wants to ask Li Hongyu to be the music and rhythm teacher of his daughters, doesn't it make it clear that he wants to tie Ye Xianggao?
Therefore, Xu Lun did not operate it with great fanfare, but held an apprenticeship ceremony behind closed doors, acting extremely cautiously and low-key.
After becoming the music and rhythm teachers of the Xu family, Li Hongyu and Youlan chose to go to the Xu Mansion every afternoon to teach the music and rhythm of the Xu family's children, mainly Xu Fang, the thirteen or fourteen-year-old daughter of the Xu family.
Xu Lun regards Xu Fang as the pearl of his palm, and has been carefully cultivated since he was a child, thinking that one day he can marry into a wealthy family, so that he can also take care of him in the officialdom in the future.
Xu Fang likes Youlan very much, Youlan is not only beautiful but also very good at singing and dancing, in order to cover her identity, Youlan usually wears a red veil, and only takes it off in front of Xu Fang, since she is a teacher, she naturally can't wear a veil to teach knowledge.
In addition, Xu Fang admires Li Hongyu's talent in the field of music and rhythm very much, the so-called layman looks at the lively, and the insider looks at the doorway, Li Hongyu's level in music and rhythm is far from the previous Mr. Music and Rhythm, which makes Xu Fang full of praise in front of his family.
Li Hongyu and Youlan carefully taught Xu Fang, Xu Lun was very satisfied with all this, and he was extremely relieved to the two, after all, Li Hongyu was a friend of Ye Xianggao, and he even thought about marrying Xu Fang into the Ye family through Li Hongyu, so that things would become perfect.
That afternoon, Li Hongyu and Youlan entered a cloth shop in the city accompanied by several entourages sent by Yixianglou to protect and serve the two of them, preparing to make some clothes.
After picking out the fabric, the guys in the store led Li Hongyu and Youlan to the backyard to measure the size, and the entourage was left in the front store by the two.
"Brother Li, how are things going?" After entering a room in the backyard, Chen Ada, who had been waiting inside, hurriedly greeted him and asked with a concerned expression.
Chen Adaa had to be anxious, because at noon the day after tomorrow, the Fuzhou government would execute a group of pirates and people involved in sea smuggling outside the city.
"Brother Chen, rest assured, everything is going according to plan, tomorrow Miss Xin'er and I will take the daughter of the state capital to go outside the city, and then Brother Chen can arrange the manpower."
Li Hongyu knew that Chen Adaa was worried about Chen Asan, so he smiled slightly and said, "However, on the surface, you still have to continue to arrange people and put on a posture of robbing the prison to attract the attention of the government." ”
"Brother Li, don't worry, I will definitely act according to the plan." Chen Ada's words immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and said to Li Hongyu in a deep voice.
"Brother, you tell me to go down, don't hurt Miss Xu, she is still young and has nothing to do with this matter." At this time, Youlan on the side couldn't help but tell Chen Ada.
According to the plan formulated by Li Hongyu, he and Youlan will take Xu Fang out tomorrow to find inspiration for creation, and then Chen Ada's arrangement is to kidnap them, and use Xu Fang to threaten Xu Lun and secretly release Chen Asan.
As for how Xu Lun let Chen Asan go, Li Hongyu is not worried, the people in the local yamen are very familiar with this kind of thing, and use beggars or nameless prisoners in the prison to replace people with their heads cut off, and use this kind of contract transfer scheme to get benefits from it.
"Will Governor Xu let my third brother go for Miss Xu's sake?" Chen Ada's thought that Li Hongyu's strategy was good, but Xu Lun's attitude was very important, if Xu Lun didn't want his daughter, the result would be bad.
"Governor Xu loves his daughter like his life, and he will definitely secretly release the third son in order to save his daughter."
Li Hongyu smiled slightly when he heard this, and said to Chen Ada, "If he really doesn't want Miss Xu's family, it won't be in the way, as long as we send a letter to the Yamen of the Customs Department, saying that the third prince is one of the masterminds who are plotting to rob the overseas trade fleet, then the people from the Customs Department will definitely intervene and suspend the punishment." ”
"To tell you the truth, there are a lot of my fellow villagers in the Customs Department, and I may be able to think of ideas at that time, even if I can't get the third prince out, then I can avoid being beheaded, and the situation will be greatly improved."
As he spoke, the corners of Li Hongyu's mouth showed a look of helplessness, "This favor is too big, I don't want to use it unless I have to." ”
Chen Ada's eyes suddenly lit up when he heard this, he almost forgot that Li Hongyu was from Huguang, and among the officials of the Customs Department, the Navy Division, and even the New Army, Huguang people were the most, followed by Shanxi people, and then Jiangnan people, so Li Hongyu could completely take the relationship between the Customs Department and leave Chen Asan's life.
However, as Li Hongyu said, this favor is too big, and if the other party turns his face, it will implicate Li Hongyu.
"Sir, wouldn't that involve you?" Youlan felt that it was too dangerous to do this, Li Hongyu was a world-famous genius, and once he got involved with pirates, it would be all over.
"Don't worry, that fellow villager from the Customs Department is my best friend, presumably he won't harm me, even if I can't release the third son, he will be placed properly, and I don't have to suffer anymore."
Li Hongyu smiled disapprovingly at Youlan when he heard this, he was worried that he didn't have a chance to contact the people from the Customs Department, but this was a good opportunity.
"Childe's great kindness Chen remembers, no matter whether he can rescue my third brother or not, Chen will repay Childe's great kindness!"
Chen Ada's face couldn't help but show excitement when he heard this, and he bowed to Li Hongyu and said, he knew that Li Hongyu was risking his reputation, and a celebrity like Li Hongyu cared most about reputation, but even this was still helping him, which really moved him.
"Mr. Xie, great grace!" Youlan's eyes were a little red, and she said to Li Hongfu, with mixed feelings in her heart, she didn't want Chen Asan to be cut off and she didn't want Li Hongyu to be involved.
"They are all sons and daughters of the rivers and lakes, and you make me a little embarrassed." Li Hongyu couldn't help but laugh when he heard this, Chen Adaa and Youlan naturally didn't know that their worries were superfluous, but they couldn't tell the truth to the two of them yet.
The next morning, Li Hongyu, Youlan and Xu Fang took a carriage to the outside of the city, February is the season of recovery of all things, and the world is full of vitality and beautiful scenes.
In order to ensure the safety of Li Hongyu and his party, Xu Lun deliberately removed more than 20 arresters from the government to accompany him, so that it would be foolproof, who would dare to find trouble with the people in the yamen?
At the same time, Xu Lun dispatched troops and dispatched the soldiers of the Zhuangban of Fuzhou Prefecture to secretly ambush near the prison of the Fuya, and he had already received news that the pirates on Xiaoliuqiu would come to rob the prison to rescue Chen Asan who was imprisoned.
This is a good opportunity to make meritorious contributions, even if those fierce pirates can break out of the encirclement of the prison, then as long as the gates of Fuzhou City are closed, the pirates will be trapped in the city, and then the soldiers of the major yamen in the city will rush up, and they will not be able to escape.
Now that Scholar Li of Zuochunfang of the imperial court is sitting in Jiangnan to prepare for overseas trade, pirates are the target to be attacked, and if he catches this group of pirates who robbed the prison, then he can show his face in front of Scholar Li.
Compared with Ye Xianggao, who has reached the twilight of his life, Li Hongyu, who has not yet reached the age of the weak crown, is obviously more worthy of Xu Lun's refuge, and those pirates are his gift to Li Hongyu.
It's a pity that Xu Lun doesn't know the true face of Lushan, and he never imagined that the dignified Li Daxue is already close at hand, and he has become Xu Fang's music and rhythm teaching, which is much more useful than his meritorious service.
In addition, it was even more unlikely that Xu Lun would be secretly calculated by Scholar Li and become a pawn in the chessboard of Li Hongyu's pacification of pirates and the establishment of a new order at sea.
