Chapter 272: Departure
After receiving the appointment letter from the prefect of Lanzhou, Li Ling himself was also very puzzled, he stayed well in the Hanlin Academy, why did he transfer him to a remote barren land in the northwest?
However, Li Ling did not have any aversion to this appointment, and his work in the Hanlin Academy was only to revise the "Ming Shilu", and he could only be his assistant. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Although he holds the title of acolyte, there are only a few opportunities to actually go to the palace, and he can't help the crown prince much.
"There's nothing wrong with going to the frontier!". Li Ling had made up his mind to leave the Hanlin Academy, he couldn't stand the gloomy atmosphere here at all.
As soon as he entered the Hanlin Academy, he met Lin San, and as usual, this guy slipped away as soon as he saw him, and he didn't even say hello to Li Ling.
Li Ling also understood what he was thinking, and he couldn't just be afraid that Li Ling would be embarrassed when he asked about his family.
Originally, he and Qiaoyun had already made a marriage, but in order to cling to the powerful Lin San, he actually broke the contract and married Liu Ji's granddaughter.
Speaking of which, what he did was not very authentic, but now Li Ling was in no mood to care about his affairs, and every family had a scripture that was difficult to read. He can't even handle his own affairs, and Linglong doesn't have any whereabouts now, so what qualifications does he have to blame Lin San for being ungrateful?
Li Ling has been studying "Ming Shilu" with a university scholar these days, and he has also learned a lot of things, especially in literature, his attainments have improved.
"Scholar, I, I'm leaving the capital tomorrow to go to the northwest ......." Li Ling said cautiously.
The scholar still looked at the scroll in his hand intently, as if he hadn't heard what Li Ling said.
"I know, you can go with confidence, I will take care of your relatives and friends in the affairs of the family!"
He didn't answer Li Ling until the scholar finished reading the scroll in his hand, this is his personal habit, as long as he picks up the scroll, he forgets everything, and he won't come back to his senses until he finishes reading the scroll.
The scholar is his mentor and friend, Li Ling naturally knows his rules, and he said goodbye to Li Ling in just a few words.
When he left the Hanlin Academy, Li Ling let out a long sigh, and his more than two months of Hanlin life was finally coming to an end.
Yang Ying and Li Yanyu already knew that he was going to Lanzhou to take up a post, and the two daughters rushed back from the grange outside the city.
When Li Ling returned to the Li Mansion, he found that Li Yanyu had been hiding in his room and did not come out. No matter how much the maid persuaded her, she refused to open the door.
"It's better for you to go and see for yourself, Yanyu, this girl is afraid that you will abandon her again!" Yang Ying sighed and said, she didn't know whether she should persuade Li Ling to take Li Yanyu to the northwest.
The Northwest War is frequent, Li Yanyu can only become a burden, if she is not brought along, I am afraid that she will not be able to stay in the capital alone.
Li Ling quietly walked to Li Yanyu's room, and sure enough, when he saw this girl sitting on the bed and crying, he only said softly: "No matter where I take you, I will take you with me, we will help you through thick and thin!" ”。
Li Yanyu wiped away her tears, she nodded lightly and smiled.
The Yancheng Bloody Incident last year made the imperial court thoroughly realize the inadequacy of the guard system, and the northwest and other places where wars often broke out were fine, but the combat effectiveness of the army in the interior and coastal areas was not flattering!
In order to solve this problem, the imperial court promulgated the "Tong Min Zhuang" law to recruit people and organize recruitment.
Although the imperial court assigned him to manage this team, it also made great restrictions on his rights, such as not being able to mobilize troops on a large scale at will.
If Li Ling wanted the group practitioners to follow him to the northeast, he had to get the approval of the imperial court.
In fact, the group of people in the military department were more anxious than anyone else, and the imperial court got 3,000 elites without investing any funds, and the military department was naturally recorded.
As soon as Li Ling was ordered to be the governor of Lanzhou, Shangshu of the military department received an order from the emperor at the same time to change the Lanzhou office to Lanzhou Wei, transfer the militia into Lanzhou, and allow them to recruit 1,000 troops in Jiangnan to enrich the guard.
After the news reached Ying Tianfu, the soldiers did not dare to slack off, and hurriedly packed up their baggage and left the Jingshi.
Four thousand people drove away at a gallop, and arrived at the capital in a few days.
Thousands of cavalrymen suddenly set up camp in Beijing, and their movements startled the common people.
Knowing that they can see clearly the word "Ming" written on the banner, everyone can feel at ease.
After getting the official document of the Ministry of War, the army left the capital and went straight to Lanzhou.
At this time, Li Ling had already set off with more than a hundred soldiers.
The fact that the regimental training soldiers were stationed outside the city in such a large formation naturally increased the confidence of the common people in Beijing. But it has also aroused the vigilance of people with a heart.
"Damn, Li Ling has unknowingly accumulated such a great strength, I must find a way to get rid of him!"
The queen's repeated targeting of the crown prince and Li Ling were all resolved by them one by one, and she was naturally very dissatisfied with Li Ling in her heart.
Now that Li Ling has left Jingshi, it is a good opportunity for her to do it.
She quietly wrote a letter and asked her cronies to send it to the Zhang family, and the descendants of the Zhang family immediately found someone to go to the northwest after reading it.
Although the empress's father died very early, the emperor still did not confiscate the Zhang family's mansion, and a group of loyal family members have been cleaning the empress's mansion.
The queen also has an uncle who joined the Northwest Army when she didn't enter the palace, and the queen hasn't revealed his existence to others for many years, and now it's time to use this uncle.
The one who hated Li Ling the most was Liu Dudu, he was different from the people in the capital, he was experienced in a hundred battles, and he would never be intimidated by the momentum of the regimental training soldiers.
The stronger the soldiers, the more determined he was to get rid of Li Ling.
"Liu Long, Liu Hu! You followed me when I joined the army in the west, and now I'm on a mission with you, to go back to the northwest and find my old department, you must get rid of this kid Li Ling for me, understand? ”。 Liu Dudu viciously instructed the two confidants.
Liu Long and Liu Hu were subordinates who were born and died with Liu Dudu, and they had served as the captains of Liu Dudu's personal guards for many years.
The loyalty of the two to him is infallible, and Liu Dudu gave such a top-secret task to the other party.
Before the empress and Liu Dudu, the imperial court had just decided to appoint Li Ling as the prefect of Lanzhou, and the men from Tao Ranju in the capital changed their clothes and left through the back door on fast horses.
At this time, Li Ling didn't know that his whereabouts had already fallen into the eyes of others, and there was more than one person watching him.
When they arrived in Datong, they were in trouble.
