This prefect's yamen has already become Yang Hanlin's private residence, so it is naturally necessary to build a large number of buildings. (.la no pop-up ads)

Not counting the lobby in front, this house is also enough to have nine courtyards, the number nine is taboo in other places, and no one cares about the ground in the tiger forest. The whole house is splendid, it took more than a year to build it after 100,000 people were levied at the beginning, and it was called the small Forbidden City in the private of the prefect Yamen in the ground of the tiger forest.

For the sake of safety and beauty, all the buildings around the small Forbidden City were bulldozed and built into a square covered with large bluestones.

The prefect's yamen has become the biggest scenery of Xuanchengwei.

Outside the canal, there are dwellings.

On the second floor of a restaurant not far south of the prefect's yamen, the window was open, and two people were drinking opposite each other.

At this time, the sun is setting, it is the most lively time of Xuanchengwei, the upstairs is almost full, the streets below are also human people, the river is endless, the peddlers doing business, the rich boy who goes shopping, riding a small sedan chair, followed by a few handmaidens of the young lady of the big family, the delicately decorated carriage is difficult to pass through the crowd, the peasants outside the city come into the city to sell the vegetables in the field, at this time they are carrying the already empty vegetable basket to rush home, with a smile on their faces, obviously very much changed some money.

The two people who drank opposite each other were Li Tie and Wang Posan.

They were all dressed as merchants in high-top leather boots, coarse cloth robes, leather belts, and large backpacks beside them. In addition to the areas along the Songhua River, the transportation in the Northeast is not convenient enough, these merchants walk between the wild Jurchen and the Han people, and even between the Han people and the Han people's villages and cities, resell them, and obtain a lot of wealth.

Around them, there were seven or eight tables of people, all of whom were eating and drinking, talking and laughing, and they couldn't see anything abnormal, but the corners of their eyes were glancing at this side from time to time, and their posture, if you looked closely, was not very natural, it seemed that the muscles were collapsing, and they could burst out at any time.

Li Tie glanced downstairs, sighed and said: "The ground of the Tiger Forest is prosperous, and it really lives up to its reputation, not to mention that it is not as good as Qileniwei or something, even Xishenwei is far behind, I am afraid that it is slightly better than the big city of Zhubang." ”

"Hmm!" Wang Posan nodded: "According to our intelligence, for decades, the Hulin Ground has been inland, and it has never experienced war, and the previous Jurchen invasions have not affected here. Moreover, the south of this is the jurisdiction of General Jianzhou, and the east side is the jurisdiction of General Asujiang, which is located in the main traffic artery, with many merchants, abundant products, and developed agriculture, so it is not surprising that there is such a prosperous scene. ”

Li Tie glanced at him, and there was a hint of approval in his eyes: "Yes, you have grown a little, you must not be able to say these words before." ”

"It's not like you're teaching well, my lord." Wang Posan smiled: "My lord, you often say that you want us to read more books, and personally send books to us, we can't refuse your good intentions, these words, under the mark, specially invited a teacher at home, teaching literacy under the mark, those books, under the mark also let him read, it really touched a lot, only to understand your painstaking work." (.la No pop-up ads)"

Li Tie's eyes flashed with relief, and said, "It's good that you can have these thoughts, I'm just afraid that you won't be able to understand it." You are all the most elite and resolute soldiers in the army, if you stay in the combat unit, the future will certainly not be bad, I have selected you from the army and joined MI6, I cannot delay you. It's easy to get results in our business, and now that the uncle is expanding everywhere, it's the time for a good man to show his skills, you see that you have only come in for a while and done a few big things, isn't it just that you have closed thousands of households? If you were in the army, it wouldn't be so fast. But you can't do it here for a lifetime, you're afraid of being less strong, and the same is true for us in this industry, when you're older, it's useless. So, sooner or later, you will have to be transferred, either to the army or to the local government to become officials, and I will always arrange for you. In any case, it's always good to read some books. ”

A flash of gratitude flashed in Wang Posan's eyes, and he nodded heavily: "What you say, my lord, mark the five inscriptions!" ”

"Actually, there's still something you don't see." Li Tie smiled slightly and changed the topic: "This Xuanchengwei is so prosperous, and it is inseparable from the governance of several major families, they are all squires, and their families are doing business, so they attach great importance to the development of the economy." You see, in the past ten years, there have been no swords and soldiers on the ground in Hulin, there have been no exorbitant taxes and miscellaneous taxes, forced labor, and no reckless military force, which can be used as an army. ”

"That's what my lord said." Wang Po glanced sideways at the golden little Forbidden City in the sunset, and said, "It's just that this Yang family is really a bit extravagant." ”

Li Tie's smile became cold: "So, I'm going to shovel him!" ”

At this time, there was the sound of chiseled boots on the stairs, and two more guests came up, they talked and laughed and walked towards the table in the corner of the second floor, just about to pass by the seats of Li Tie and the two, a guest seemed to be careless, and suddenly hit the tip of Wang Posan's elbow, Wang Posan's body shook, and his chest hit the edge of the table, and suddenly he hit a burst of soup and splashed Wang Posan's body.

Wang Posan got up and scolded angrily: "You don't have fucking long eyes! ”

The guest was also dressed as a businessman, and he was not a vegetarian surname, and he was a stalk in his neck at the moment, and the short knife with ox ears on his waist was already revealing half of the snowy blade, and he said viciously: "Good dog guts, say it again?" ”

The two immediately had an argument, and the little two who ran the hall hurriedly came over to persuade the fight, and the shopkeeper also came up to say good things, and promised to pay Wang Posan a pot of good wine at this table, and finally pulled these people apart. This kind of thing is the most common thing in a restaurant, and no one cares about it.

Several people sat down again, Wang Posan already had an extra note in his hand, he glanced at it, and said in a low voice: "My lord, I have already contacted that side, Dong Sanlin has done a good job, Heihushan has promised to surrender, and contacted the nearby hundred miles of seventeen or eight silkworms, gathered 30,000 horse troops, and has reached eighty miles north of the city." ”

"Good!" Li Tie squinted and nodded, and said in a deep voice, "We should also do something." ”

Wang Posan hesitated for a moment and said, "My lord, you don't have to risk yourself in this matter, we will come." ”

Li Tie waved his hand: "There is no need to say much about this matter, it is a big matter, and I have to come to do it." ”

A few people hurriedly checked out and went downstairs, while the remaining drinkers, some left, some were still drinking, and everything was as usual.

At this time, in the splendid hall of the prefect's yamen, a conversation also took place.

Everything was because of a letter from Wu Yijun.

At noon today, a team of more than a dozen people arrived at Xuanchengwei, explained their intention to the city gate guards, claiming to be the general of Songhuajiang and the messenger of Uncle Wu Yi.

The defenders of the city gate did not dare to slack off, and hurriedly reported it, and soon, this line of messengers was received by Yang Hanlin.

Yang Hanlin received them warmly, checked the letter documents, confirmed their identities, and then convened everyone to discuss the matter.

In the hall, Yang Hanlin paced back and forth, he had been walking back and forth in the hall for more than ten years, he was already in his fifties, in this era, he was already an old man, his hair had been frosted, the muscles of his face had begun to relax, and the slightly hunched figure looked a little old under the reflection of the autumn dusk.

There were two rows of seats in the hall, and the patriarchs of the ten major families were sitting, and the affairs of the Tiger Forest were decided by them.

Now Yang Hanlin's prestige on the ground of the Tiger Forest is unique, and these patriarchs all know that the prefect has encountered a tricky matter, and no one dares to say anything, they all sit silently on the side, for fear of interrupting the prefect's train of thought.

After a long while, an old man in his fifties coughed and said, "Lord Prefect, what is written on the letter sent by Uncle Wu Yi, can you tell us and discuss it together!" Let's all work together, it's better than you thinking alone! ”

Yang Hanlin was a little displeased by his words, but this old man is the head of the Luo family in the top ten families, named Luoyang and, the Luo family can only rank in the top three in the top ten families, but the head of this generation Luoyang and long-sleeved dance, extremely good at business, when it comes to its wealth, it is the most among the top ten families, the possession of countless fields, tens of thousands of slaves and maids in the family, not only here, but also in Beijing There are also a large number of buying and selling.

He spoke, but Yang Hanlin was not good.

He paused and said in a deep voice: "Ladies and gentlemen, just now this official received a letter from Lian Zining, the general of Songhuajiang, which said that we should gather all the troops on the ground of Hulin and go to Xishenwei for reorganization. He said that after the imperial court enters autumn, it will start a war with the Jurchens, and our tiger forest ground is also under the command of the imperial court, so naturally we should do our part. Let's discuss this matter! ”

As soon as these words came out, the audience was in an uproar.

A young man sitting in the first place snorted disdainfully: "Lian Zining, this kid is really holding chicken feathers as an arrow!" When will the imperial court be able to control us? He's just a general of Songhuajiang, what is it, besides, what does it have to do with us to fight the Jurchen? He clearly knew that this was a plot to make a tiger on the ground, as long as we handed over the military power, I was afraid that the next moment it would be a big disaster. It's a beautiful idea! Dad, if you want me to say, let's send him a letter back, saying that there are a lot of ground soldiers in Hulin, let him bring the troops to get them! ”

The young man who spoke, named Yang Deli, was Yang Hanlin's only son and the next generation of the Yang family.

Hearing him speak, many people immediately echoed.

Yang Hanlin looked at his son, and a hint of approval flashed in his eyes.

He is also inclined to his son's opinion.

Although Wu Yijun's reputation is huge, he has been invincible for several years, and it has spread throughout the Guanwai, but Lian Zining's move is clearly an empty glove white wolf, and he wants to take the Tiger Forest ground at no cost. It is conceivable that if the military power is gone, the status and power of these families will also be exhausted.

Rather than this, it is better to fight with Wu Yijun, although Wu Yijun is strong, but Yang Hanlin is also very confident in the army he has built over the years, I believe that even if it is worse than Wu Yijun, it will not be much to check.

Luo Yanghe's eyes flashed with a complicated light, and his heart was at war between heaven and man.

Last night, he stayed in the sixteenth room of the concubine's room, which was his newly accepted little star, a Goryeo woman, it is said that his father was also a high-ranking official in Goryeo, but then he committed an accident and was beheaded by the king of Goryeo, and his family was exiled here, and his daughter was also downcast to Jizhai. Luoyang spent five hundred taels of silver to redeem her, and it has been a month now, and he said that he has stayed with her.

This morning, when the sky was at its darkest, Luoyang He was asleep, and then he was woken up.

He saw two black shadows standing in front of the window, and they were soaked in cold sweat at that time, each of their ten major families had private soldiers, and there were also three thousand troops stationed in his Luo family manor, but he didn't expect that he was touched in by someone unconsciously, which made him feel angry in his heart, of course, more fear.

Even if he was calm and didn't shout loudly, the black shadow had already touched the window, and said in a deep voice: "Luo family master, I will bring you a few words from below." ”

"Uncle Wu Yi is the one who despises you, Uncle Wu Yi appreciates you very much, and often says that the long-sleeved businessman in the Northeast who is good at dancing is none other than Luoyang. The Yang family is not virtuous, occupies the ground of the tiger forest, is like a separation, and it is incumbent on him to be the general of Songhuajiang in the imperial court, and to pacify the rebellion. He has now led a large army to the ground border of Hulin, and can come at any time. It's just that the soldiers are together, and it is the people of Li who suffer, who despise compassion and can't bear it. Now I have revised a book, sent someone to Xuanchengwei, and what I want you to do is to agree with the content of the letter. As long as Wu Yijun occupies the ground of Hulin and despises you as a fellow intellectual, the Luo family will only be stronger than now. ”

"If you say what you say, Master Luo, you can also think about the current situation, where to go, and make your own decisions."

After saying these words, the man in black didn't give Luo Yang and a chance to react, and just floated away.

Now the words spoken by the man in black echoed in Luo Yangji's mind.

And they weren't wrong.

It's not ten years ago now, and in the past ten years, the Yang family has completely grown up, and its military and political strength has far surpassed that of other families, and now it has begun to use various means to suppress other families - such as purging in the army.

Yang Hanlin promoted a large number of his cronies, and recruited civilian children who did not belong to the ten major families to join the army, and belittled and suppressed the officers of other families. The ground of the Tiger Forest has now almost become a hall of words for the Yang family.

Because of this, Yang Hanlin was even more unscrupulous, and this time he summoned them over to discuss, but it was just a meaning.

Luo Yanghe knew that if he spoke out against it, he would definitely displease Yang Hanlin, but thinking of the benefits promised by the man in black, he couldn't help but be tempted - anyway, it was just a word, and there would be no too serious consequences, even if Yang Hanlin was displeased, could he still kill himself? But once Wu Yijun occupies this place, it will be a real benefit!

Lian Zining's reputation is still very good, and after Luoyang and weighed it for a while, he finally made a decision.

He looked at the hall, some people were echoing Yang Deli's words, and some were silent, obviously not very agreeing but limited to their identity, but they didn't dare to talk nonsense.

Luoyang coughed, attracting everyone's attention, and then said unhurriedly: "Lord Prefect, can you say a few words about this matter?" ”

Yang Hanlin said: "Naturally, the head of the Luo family, please speak." ”

"In this matter, the old man thought that he would not be in a hurry to tear his face with Wu Yijun first. Let's think about the fate of tearing our faces with Wu Yijun first. Luoyang and said slowly: "Everyone, please see, Wu Yijun is so powerful, even if we are in Xuanchengwei, we have heard a lot, brave and good at fighting, especially with excellent firearms, hehe, the old man is not angry with others to destroy his own prestige, but just tell the truth." Wu Yijun is so strong, if it is as Yang Gongzi said, we will definitely anger Wu Yijun, the army is coming, can we block it and not say it, even if it is blocked, this time I am fighting back and forth, everyone, our land and manor will have to be broken. ”

He said this from the perspective of everyone's own vital interests, which immediately resonated with everyone, they all cherish their own land, and when they heard this, they were naturally reluctant to do so, and the wind direction was biased towards Luoyang and that side, and everyone supported one after another.

Yang Hanlin was unhappy in his heart, his face fell, and he said coldly: "Then the meaning of the head of the Luo family, is he going to give up this inheritance?" Let's hand over the army, and then we will be slaughtered wantonly for the sake of the sword? ”

"Your Excellency, you have misunderstood, and this is not the case with the old man's thoughts." Luo Yang said: "What the old man means is that we don't turn our faces with Wu Yijun, why don't we send someone to negotiate with them first and see what conditions they want to put forward, wouldn't it be more stable?" Everyone, you think, this Wu Yibo definitely doesn't want to see a dilapidated Tiger Forest ground, he wants to recruit soldiers, ask for food, and benefits, he must hope that the Tiger Forest ground is still so prosperous, so he doesn't want to raise troops, and who does he rely on to govern the Tiger Forest ground, not on us people? So maybe, Wu Yibo will agree to our conditions. Do you think so? ”

His words were extremely tempting, for these big families, one is afraid of losing power, and the other is afraid of the impact of war, if they can guarantee power without fighting, it would be better.
