Chapter 298: Cui Bin
Cheng Yue smiled: "This is nothing. But I can't let Kublai Khan know that you are here with me for the time being, and you have to be wronged a little and change your name to work for me. Usually you have to live in seclusion, and don't see outsiders easily, okay? ”
Cui Bin smiled: "That's exactly how it should be." I wonder what the Metropolitan wants his subordinates to do? Subordinates do what they are told. ”
Cheng Yue said solemnly: "You are very talented, especially good at financial management, so I want you to be the director of the finance department." I want to put my financial power in your hands, and you have to do your best to open up sources and reduce expenditures, and work with you to prepare for the great cause of my Northern Expedition, do you understand? ”
Cui Bin was shocked and said hurriedly: "Governor, his subordinates have just surrendered, why did he immediately take on such a heavy responsibility?" All of you are more competent than your subordinates, and your sudden ascension to high positions may not be beneficial to your subordinates or to the governors. ”
Cheng Yue said: "Of course I know that none of them are worse than you, but they are all on their own, and they can't change their responsibilities casually." You don't have to be too humble, I have taken so much pains to get you out, don't I know your talents? What about a sudden rise to a high position? I'm not going to command thousands of troops all at once, as long as you are competent, who can say what? I have already arranged your position, just waiting for you to take office, you just have to do it boldly and boldly, don't worry! ”
Cui Bin was so excited that tears rolled down, knelt on the ground, kowtowed to Cheng Yue three times, and choked up: "The Governor not only saved the lives of his subordinates' whole family, but this kindness of knowing made his subordinates unable to repay him!" The subordinates will live up to the trust of the Metropolitan Governor and be crushed to pieces for the great cause of the Metropolitan Governor! ”
Cheng Yue patted him on the shoulder, helped him up, and said with a smile: "Didn't you say that you won't kowtow?" I know who you are. There are no guarantees. I can also promise you one more thing. Later I defeated the Mongols. It will never hurt An Tong's life, so as to fulfill your righteous anger, do you think it is good? ”
Cui Bin was overjoyed and said: "The Northern Expedition of the Metropolitan Governor will definitely be successful, Prime Minister An Tong is honest and selfless, and his talent is outstanding, and the Metropolitan Governor may be available." ”
Cheng Yue smiled and said, "It's too early to say this. In short, what I promised you will be done, and you can rest assured. ”
Zhao Mengfu hurriedly stepped forward to congratulate, Cui Bin also wanted to thank him, and after the two saluted each other a few times, they laughed relatively loudly, and they couldn't help but be full of ambition.
After this deep talk, Cui Bin was even more in awe of Cheng Yue in his heart, only to realize that Cheng Yue had already arranged everything, and even his official position had already been reserved. Just wait for him to come thousands of miles to vote. In this way, Cheng Yue is simply like a god. There is such a male lord in the world! I have been blessed by misfortune, and I may be able to go to the next level in the future!
The three of them talked until late, Cui Bin told all the important things and characters of the Yuan Dynasty that he knew, Zhao Mengfu listened and remembered, quite a lot, and made an appointment with Cui Bin to come to the door at any time these days to ask for advice.
Cheng Yue listened very carefully, and interjected to ask some questions from time to time. The three of them are of the same age, and they treat each other honestly and honestly with each other, like old friends for many years, and they are very harmonious.
Cui Bin said happily, until he was reminded by Zhao Mengfu, he remembered that it was late at night. The two said goodbye together, and Cheng Yue personally sent out the door.
With Cheng Yue sitting in Suzhou, almost all the people in the Special Economic Zone are speeding up, and they all want to leave a little more impression in front of Cheng Yue, at least don't make any mistakes.
Cheng Yue is very leisurely, he only needs to meet all kinds of people in the house every day, and make love with the newly accepted concubines, although Suzhou is his base camp, but he is not so busy in Lin'an.
Now it has just entered autumn, the weather is still hot, Cheng Yue has had lunch, in the water pavilion to enjoy the cool, holding Rou Niang in his arms, Wang peeled oranges for him on the side.
Rou Niang took a petal of orange, put it in her mouth, gave it to Cheng Yue with fragrant lips, and kissed Cheng Yue deeply while eating.
Cheng Yue's love for Rou Niang is beyond words, and Zhang Shufang, Ye Yiyi and other concubines have a lot of things to do and can't be by their side. Cheng Yue hugs Rou Niang every day when he is free, it is really like mixing oil in honey, and he does not want to be separated for a moment. The other concubines can only compete for another position next to Cheng Yue, although there is no way to complain, Rou Niang's beauty even likes them as women.
Cheng Yue put his hand into Rou Niang's clothes, and was thinking about which concubines to wait for, Mrs. Luo came to report, Wang Lin took the prince of Tuohuan, and was about to go to the dock in Suzhou, and Lord Yin had already gone to greet him when he heard the news.
Cheng Yue refused to pull his hand out, and smiled: "It's good to come, if I don't come, I'll be reluctant to leave, haha." When the dehuan arrived, let them open the main gate and take the people to the main hall to wait. ”
Mrs. Luo glanced at Cheng Yue's hand that had not stopped, and said coquettishly: "Don't miss the business of the Metropolitan Governor, it's not good to let you wait for a long time." ”
Cheng Yue had no choice but to pull out his hand with difficulty, and said with a smile: "I know, don't worry." ”
Mrs. Luo retreated, and Rou Niang smiled in Cheng Yue's ear: "It's nothing if the official takes the two ladies into the room, at most, only the people in the house know, and no one dares to go outside to say it." ”
Cheng Yue nodded slightly, and said, "Of course, this is the best, but we have to wait a little longer, this matter is not urgent." ”
It will take a while for Dehuan to arrive, and Cheng Yue is not idle, so he asked the Wang family to summon Yu's, Sun's, Guan Gao, Lilac, and Mei'er to come over and wait.
Tuhuan is only seventeen years old this year, he is a prince, and he was supposed to be the king of Zhennan, but Jiangnan was not fully captured, so the matter of sealing the king can only be put on hold temporarily. This time, he fought to come to the Southern Song Dynasty, just to see what the place that was originally going to be sealed to him was like, and who was the future brother-in-law who blocked the Yuan army by himself.
Tuhuan went all the way south, and saw that the more people went to the south, the denser they became, and the people were richer, and he was very saddened. The Mongols were accustomed to plundering, and all he thought about was robbing fewer women and making a lot of money.
When I arrived in Suzhou, the eyes of Dehuan were even more insufficient. Suzhou's population is at least three times that of the capital, and the streets are full of the latest styles of clothing, shoes and socks.
Cheng Yue did not allow officials to disturb the people, so Yin Yu and Wang Lin accompanied the Mongolian prince could only open the way by the people in front, and they passed through the narrow passage that the crowd barely let out, which was naturally much slower than that of most horses.
Tuhuan knew that Cheng Yue was powerful, no matter how impatient he was, he didn't dare to make a mistake, and controlled the horse to move forward slowly. But one of the thousand households under Tuhuan was short-tempered, he kept walking and stopping all the way, and he had long been uncomfortable, seeing a straw hat seller carrying a burden suddenly come out of the side to block the road, he couldn't help but be angry, and raised his hand is a whip.
The peddler was unable to dodge and was knocked to the ground on the spot, rolling on the ground in pain and wailing incessantly. The load of goods was also overturned, the straw hats rolled to the ground, and the people on the street were dumbfounded.
Qianhu laughed and scolded: "Untouchables, get out of here!" Didn't you see the prince of Dayuan coming? If I don't dodge again, I'll see one and beat one until I kill you! ”
Yin Yu and Wang Lin were furious when they saw this, Tuhuan was the prince of the Yuan Dynasty, and there were thousands of followers, all of whom were battle-hardened elite soldiers, and they could not suppress it, so they had to endure it for the time being, but they couldn't help but speak.
Yin Yu said angrily to Tuohuan: "The prince dares to connive at his subordinates to oppress the good in Suzhou, but does he underestimate the governor? ”
The thousand households were startled and turned their heads to look at Tuhuan. Others are just that, and he really can't help but feel scared of Cheng Yue. I didn't suppress my anger just now, but now I regret it a little.
Of course, it is impossible for Tuhuan to bow to Yin Yu here, in the territory of the Yuan Dynasty, it is common for the Mongols to beat the Han and even kill the Han people, a life can be lost at most a few sheep, and a few whips are nothing, he doesn't think it's a big deal.
However, Yin Yu in front of him was an important minister under Cheng Yue, and he was also responsible for coming to greet them, so he always had to give some face, so he smiled and said, "Why is Lord Yin so angry? He's just opening the way for me, what's wrong? Shouldn't this man suddenly come out and stand in my way? ”
Yin Yu sneered: "It's just a little in the way, do you need to beat people like this?" And scolded him for being a pariah! The prince can think clearly, if this matter can be good, the official can not tell the governor, if not, when the governor's temper attacks, don't blame the official for not speaking for the prince! ”
Seeing that Yin Yu had used Cheng Yue to intimidate him twice, Tuhuan was extremely displeased, and replied coldly: "Lord Yin, he just whipped a pariah with a whip, what kind of big deal is it?" Lord Yin just said to the Grand Duke, am I afraid? ”
Yin Yu saw that Tuhuan didn't know what was at stake, so he snorted coldly, and ordered someone to take the injured hawker with him, and go to the Suzhou Mansion to meet the governor of the capital and wait for the fall. When a large number of people saw Lord Yin's anger, they also spontaneously followed, wanting to see what the Metropolitan Governor would do.
Because it took longer than expected to go to the city, Cheng Yue was bored to wait, so he simply found the two ladies of Song Luo, pulled them into a secluded room, and hugged them to the bed to tease. In the past few days, in order to prevent Gillian and Wan'er from finding out, Cheng Yue did not have sex with them, so he wanted to make up for it a little.
The two ladies were amused by Cheng Yue, but they couldn't wait because they were all menstrual.
Cheng Yuezheng was a little disappointed, and a servant woman came to report that Tuhuan had arrived at the mansion, but something seemed to have happened halfway, some people were injured, and many people came to seek justice.
Cheng Yue frowned when he heard that someone was injured. Song Luo and the two ladies hurriedly got up to sort out Cheng Yue's clothes.
Cheng Yue walked from the back house to the main hall, and as soon as he entered the door, he saw a young man dressed as a Mongolian royal family sitting on the chair on the left side of the main hall, and some attendants and generals sat in order behind him, all of whom were strong men with fierce faces.
Opposite the Mongolians, Yin Yu and Wang Lin sat there drinking tea with cold faces, not talking to Tuhuan and the others.
As soon as Cheng Yue entered the door, Yin Yu and Wang Lin hurriedly got up and saluted, and their hearts were settled.
Tuhuan and his subordinates heard Cheng Yue's name for a long time, and when they saw Cheng Yue really appear in front of them, they all felt a pang in their hearts, and while carefully observing this legendary ghost-like figure, they got up and saluted Cheng Yue. (To be continued......)
