Chapter 187: The You Family Misunderstood, and the Appeal Was Done

"Good thief, I'm different from you!"

The elderly and sick You Shilu, who couldn't stand the bad news, had the pro-soldier who fled and returned, saying that his own son You Renlong was trapped in Yangqu, where he stood, called the fire to the sky, the city wall collapsed, and now he is nowhere to be found, I am afraid that it is already a lot of good luck, and suddenly heard it, exhausted, and fainted directly, and had to be taken care of by his family, and woke up, the first sentence was to look up to the sky and sigh.

"My son!" When he thought of his son who had been teaching hard for twenty or thirty years, once he went, You Shilu couldn't help but feel cold, the You family has been a gate for generations, could it be that the inheritance was cut off when it was passed on to his own family? He is useless again, how can he go down to meet his ancestors and ancestors in the future.

Just as he was weeping bitterly, he heard a sound outside the door, "Your Excellency the Governor has arrived!" ”

"Hmph, it's just in time!" You Shilu didn't know where the spirit came from at the moment, regardless of the persuasion of his family, turned over, regardless of his own clothes, and went directly out of the main room of the inner courtyard, and saw Zhang Zongheng coming under the guidance of his housekeeper's good life, and immediately sneered, and went up to ignore the etiquette, and said directly, "The governor is not going to appease the thief, what are you doing here!" ”

Zhang Zongheng only made this question stunned, he got the news, knew that Zhang Jiakou had a final decision, and he had silver in his hand, and asked Li Jing to loosen his mouth, saying that the deputy commander-in-chief was not unnegotiable, but the matter of money and food still needs to be talked about slowly, so he came to You Shilu to discuss the matter of appeasement, as for the Yangqu was broken, only the appeasement was completed, who would talk about it?

Those captured officials, each fearing that the matter would leak out, even called the envoy to take it, and there was no one who even went to the court, so he only had to appease Li Jing, and said that they would bring their troops and horses to Taiyuan Mansion to meet them.

However, despite this, Zhang Zongheng was still shocked by the combat power of Li Jing's department, after all, Yangqu City has thick walls and elite soldiers and horses to escort it.

With such combat power, I'm afraid that all Datong Town will go south, and it will also be a situation where the fish will die and the net will be broken, at present, whether it is the imperial court or Xuanda, there is no capital to fight Li Jing, after all, the gains outweigh the losses, not to mention that there is a better way out, but if you are not stupid, no one will go to this dead end.

"Where did You Gong say that?" Zhang Zongheng wondered in his heart, although You Shilu has been sick in bed for a long time, but his family has a lot of care, and his past friendship is acceptable, why did he come to visit today, but he choked on it, and it seemed to have a bit of suppressed anger, why is this? !

You Shilu coughed a few times angrily, just pointed at Zhang Zongheng, and almost wanted to scold, he is really a good thief, and the thief is in one breath, he killed my son yesterday, and today he is angry with me, and he really can't make it when the old man is muddy, thinking like this, he almost has the urge to lift the table, and only stabs everything he knows to the court, so that the upper and lower parts of Shanxi are finished.

"Huh." But after thinking about it carefully, I feel depressed, if I do this, I am afraid that the descendants of the You family will not be pleased, Zhang Zongheng is the governor of Xuanda, and his authority is above his own family, and if he wants to find a way to retaliate, he has no way, so he can only worry about the tragic death of his own family and son, and his own family is sad.

Zhang Zongheng was stupid in place, and he looked at You Shilu as if the candle was about to run out, and a sad atmosphere rose, and he only turned his head and asked the housekeeper in a low voice, "Why is the chief soldier so sad today?" Could it be that something has happened in the family? ”

The housekeeper didn't want to say much, but it was the governor who asked, and he didn't dare not answer, but said in a low voice, "My son-in-law is out in command, Yangqu City has fallen, and there is no trace. ”

"Why is that?!" It's good that Zhang Zongheng didn't listen to it, but when he heard it, he wondered, how could this matter be so different from what he knew? So he hurriedly came up, caught up with You Shilu, who was moving step by step, and comforted him with good words, "Why is General You sad, I heard that Gongzi is safe and sound now, the city of Yangqu fell before, and the thieves have been resettled, why is it unexpected?!" ”

"Shinya?!" You Shilu seemed to be in disbelief, and only slowly turned his head, his eyes shining, "Really?!" ”

"It's true!" Zhang Zongheng said categorically, and he was afraid that he would not believe it, so he took out the letter in his arms and looked at him, and sure enough, he saw the list of captured officials in detail, up to the political envoy of a province, according to the envoy and other officials, down to the general of the army, and the head of the six houses of the county government were all available, among which the name of You Renlong ranked seventh, and he was really safe and sound.

After You Shilu finished reading it, he breathed a sigh of relief in his chest, and his mood suddenly calmed down, bowed to Zhang Zongheng, and said ashamedly, "I almost misunderstood the governor, please forgive me for being rude!" ”

"It's okay!" Zhang Zongheng raised his hand generously, even if the matter was revealed, he personally helped You Shilu to walk to the pavilion in the courtyard, only waited for the bench, helped him sit down, and waved away the idle people, etc., and then said, "After reading the letter, what do you think?" ”

He is naturally talking about the matter of appeasing Li Jing, it is said that the 200,000 taels of silver obtained by borrowing, if it is used as military expenses, recruiting new troops, and making up arrears, it is not that he can't fight with the thief army, but the battle of Yangqu made him completely abandon this thought, and even the Yangqu city, which is so difficult to attack, made the thief army hit down with a force, where did he mention the idea of using swords in vain.

"Be sure to appease the top, there can be no more chaos now, otherwise Shanxi Town will no longer be able to insist." You Shilu only sighed, thinking that his own personal guards were all fallen in Yangqu City at this moment, and with the city being taken by thieves, he only had a hundred personal guards on hand, how could he fight again? It's better to ask the thief to return one or two after being appeased, and it can barely be maintained.

Zhang Zongheng originally thought about it, if this matter was poked out, I am afraid that it would be difficult for his own family to bear it, but in the boundary of Shanxi, only Xu Dingchen, the governor of Shanxi, and You Shilu, the chief military officer of Shanxi Town, saw him agree at this moment, and immediately said excitedly, "Just wait for the general soldier's words, I am also relieved in my heart, after all, the trouble is very big, and I don't dare to make up my mind!" ”

You Shilu is already old, with countless battle scars, he just wants to spend his old age in peace at the moment, he has long lost his enterprising heart, and at this moment there are big ups and downs, and his mood is not calm, so he naturally has to admit it by pinching his nose, otherwise he will never come back.

In this way, You Shilu dragged his sick body again, and held on to the spirit to discuss the details with the governor, which was considered to be a reluctant plan, and finally unanimously decided that it should be quickly appeased, and not to delay time, so as not to give birth to side branches.
