Chapter 172: The general situation of the deaf and dumb hall

After Li Lianying left, the governor leaned back on the chair in a gloomy manner, silent for a long time, looking up and looking straight ahead, his eyes were empty and blank, full of dazed looks.

At this moment, the governor has a kind of loneliness, a kind of resentment, and a trace of anger running around. I think he is also a member of the imperial court, which can be compared to the feudal officials. After decades of ups and downs, I saw all the deceit and intrigue of officialdom, but I didn't expect it to be planted in the barbarian land of Guangzhou Mansion, a place of incomplete indoctrination, and in the hands of my brother-in-law.

The governor's heart is not as calm as it seems, the wind is surging, the waves are undulating, there is a hint of remorse, wandering in the sea of hearts.

The matter of his brother-in-law Li Lianying, he can't discuss it with others, let alone stay out of it. Because the incident has evolved, it has been sublimated to the extreme, and it is no longer a simple kidnapping case, which has involved him, the governor, and can no longer be ignored as an outsider.

In the past few days, although the discussion is very unfavorable to him, the governor, he is not very worried, because these are people's speculations, circulating among the ordinary people, and there is no substantial evidence to prove what Li Lianying did, although he knows that it is true.

However, without evidence, no one can help his brother-in-law Li Lianying, and he can't help the dignified governor of Guangdong. However, the secret discussion with Li Lianying just now made him completely lose his self-confidence, and he could no longer stay calm, and his chest was agitated.

The governor's head was running at high speed, and he kept thinking, looking for sides, to get through this difficulty. His forehead was wrinkled, his face was clouded, and he was like a dead man, lifeless, and his eyes were looking straight at the roof.

Time passed, and the governor was still standing still, lifeless. Suddenly, he sat up suddenly, his eyes lit up, and he muttered to himself, "That's the only way, suppress the discussion first." ”

Then, the governor churned, found a post, wrote hard, and soon stopped the comparison, quickly walked out of the study, and sent someone to send the post out.

When the governor and Li Lianying talked, other places were not calm, and all parties were also concerned about Yang Lin's abduction. At the beginning, no one cared about this matter, after all, he was just a petty official with sesame mung beans, and no matter how strong his background was, he would die like a lamp.

However, with the return of Yang Lin, the matter intensified, knowing that the governor's yamen was thrown garbage, the top forces of Guangzhou Mansion realized that things were not as simple as they seemed, and the rumors did not gradually calm down because of Yang Lin's safe return.

Everyone knows that this is a real conspiracy, and the gossip is just a piece of cake, and the real big deal is still to come, brewing, and it may explode at any time.

A big hand was pushing the whole thing forward until it reached its peak, evolving into an invisible fire, burning some human bodies without skin and completely falling from some positions.

In the governor's palace, in the garden, the governor and his master, who are also his confidants, strolled in the garden, enjoying the scenery at will, and did not shy away from the affairs of Li Lianying and the governor, unlike others, as long as they talked about this matter, they were all cautious, lest they be listened to and get into trouble, but the two of them didn't care at all.

"My lord, the rumors have been so bad recently, why haven't you seen the governor's yamen make a clarification? Even the Guangdong Customs Department has nothing to say about Li Lianying, which is really strange. ”

The governor was still wandering around, and did not pause in the slightest because of the words of the staff, and said lightly: "What's so strange, from beginning to end, there is no evidence pointing to those two, even if the matter is done by Li Lianying, what is there to clarify in the governor's yamen, if it really does that, it will make people say that they are thieves." ”

"Hey, by the way, master, if there is really evidence that Li Lianying did that thing, do you think the governor will abandon the guard and leave the relationship with Li Lianying?"

The master followed behind, thought for a while, and said slowly: "My lord, my subordinates think that the governor will not do that. Otherwise, what will be lost is not a concubine and brother-in-law, but his reputation, it will not be good to stay in Guangdong in the future, and it is estimated that the emperor will not give him good fruits to eat, after all, public opinion cannot be ignored and cannot be ignored. ”

"What's more, no matter how the governor explains, no one will believe it, after all, Li Lianying usually bullies the township, relying on his governor's prestige, how can he be clear?"

The governor frowned, a little unhappy, and said in a sneering voice: "You Han people are really troublesome, always fiddling with power and scheming, and bringing the atmosphere of the Qing Dynasty to ruin, don't talk about it, let's continue to play." ”

A certain family in Guangzhou Mansion stood alone in front of the window, looking out of the window faintly, in the direction of the governor's yamen, his eyes flashed, his forehead frowned slightly, and he said coldly: "You should also step down, that position should be changed, it's my turn to sit." ”

Then, the man stopped talking, and stood straight, looking out the window calmly, always paying attention in one direction.

At the same time, the thirteen lines of teeth in Guangdong, in the study.

Yang Lin held a list booklet in his hand, all of which were the names of middle and high-level personnel in the deaf-mute hall, introducing their age, place of origin, position, and various basic personal information. There are also a few books on the table, all of which are Zhai Dakun's notes in recent years, roughly describing the situation of the deaf and dumb hall and what he is facing now.

What is especially important is that Xu Changsheng is written in detail, an elder of the Deaf and Dumb Hall, second only to Zhai Dakun in power and prestige, and the previous helmsman of the Deaf and Dumb Hall, this Elder Xu has a bad heart and has always coveted the position of the hall master.

Yang Lin closed the roster, looked at the two people in front of him expressionlessly, and the confidants sent by Zhai Dakun focused on introducing Yang Lin to the situation of the deaf and dumb hall, as well as teaching sign language and lip language.

When he met Zhai Dakun for the first time, knowing that this old man knew sign language and lip language, Yang Lin had an idea in his heart to set up a special force to specialize in assassination, beheading, and removing obstacles on the road to hegemony.

Because, when the special forces have mastered sign language and lip language, they can conduct silent operations, which will greatly increase the probability of success.

Thinking of this, his eyes were gloomy, Yang Lin stared at the two people in front of him again, ready to bring the two into the followers, and train a large number of people who are proficient in sign language and lip language, especially Yang Lin.

As the new hall master who is about to succeed Zhai Dakun as the deaf and dumb hall, how can he not know lip language and sign language? Otherwise, how can you dominate the entire deaf and dumb church in the future? How do you command all the people in the hall?

After all, a dignified deaf and dumb hall master always asks others to translate his orders and paraphrase his own words, which will more or less cause controversy and cannot convince the public.

From the basic diary and roster on the table, I learned that not everyone in the deaf-mute hall is deaf-mute, most of them are normal people, especially grassroots people. Otherwise, if the deaf-mute church only accepts the deaf-mute, the scale will only become smaller and smaller, and the means of obtaining information will become more and more limited.

However, according to Zhai Dakun's diary, most of the important information of the deaf-mute hall was obtained by the deaf-mute. It's not hard to understand when you think about it, because the birth defects of those who are deaf and mute have become an advantage, and people are much less defensive about them, and they are relieved and bold to tell some confidential matters.

It is worth mentioning that one thing that deeply attracted Yang Lin's attention was that the hidden ambition of Elder Xu was actually a normal person, not only proficient in sign language and lip language, but also able to speak many Chinese, lurking in the Yamen, very popular, and in some foreign businessmen, he was like a fish in water.

Moreover, Yang Lin also learned that this Elder Xu was still effectively loyal to the Qing court, and wanted to emulate Yang Shichen and return to the Tartars with the deaf and dumb hall.

Knowing this, Yang Lin became anxious, he didn't have much time, and he must control the deaf and dumb hall as soon as possible, otherwise an intelligence organization would miss out, and it would cost more effort, financial resources, and manpower to reorganize one.

In the history of the Deaf and Dumb Hall, Yang Shichen is a person who has to be mentioned, and his existence has greatly increased the force value of the Deaf and Dumb Hall, so that some Jianghu forces dare not attack. However, his sudden departure and defection to the Qing court not only greatly reduced the strength of the Deaf and Dumb Hall, but also was ridiculed by other halls of the Heaven and Earth Society.

For a period of time, because of Yang Shiyu's rebellion, the morale of the people in the deaf and dumb hall was low, and they could not recover for a long time, and they could no longer raise their heads in front of the other brothers of the Heaven and Earth Society.

Yang Lin exhaled heavily, and secretly said in his heart, my future subordinates will never allow this to happen, otherwise, the rebels will be killed!

Sorting out his emotions, Yang Lin raised his hands, and then said politely: "Two brothers, don't sit still, drink a cup of tea, how about tasting the new tea I let people bring?" ”

The two hesitated, but seeing Yang Lin's sincere smile, they still walked to the chair, sat down, picked up the teacup, and tasted the tea.

However, the two had just drunk the tea, and not long after, they fainted at the same time. Yang Lin paced with a smile, came between the two, and said apologetically: "Two brothers, I'm sorry, if you want to keep my secret, you can only do this, first grieve it." ”

Then, Yang Lin's mind moved, and the three of them disappeared into the study together, without the slightest sound, only two cups of warm tea were still steaming.
