"Back to the Queen Mother, Fang Shoufu analyzed it well, and the errand of the governor of Fujian is inconvenient to change people easily
However, the old slave thought that the imperial court could send one person to preside over the overall situation, for example, a special manager, or another governor above Wu Sinan, so that the matter of suppressing bandits would not be delayed," Zou Yi said carefully
"Your proposal is not bad, you can do this, Zou Yi, you have gone through three dynasties, and you are also knowledgeable, the officials of the government and the opposition, you are basically familiar with it, in your opinion, who is better for the imperial court to send to Fujian?" Zhang Yan asked
"Fujian is not the Central Plains, it is a barren land, the folk customs have always been fierce, the existing rebels dare to attack the feudal officials, it is not surprising and the coastal areas, there are often pirates, plus the Dutch red-haired ghost is not self-sufficient, take my Penghu, I should really send a bold minister to the old slave I also heard that the combat power of the officers and soldiers in Fujian is extremely unbearable, long sparse battle formation, lack of training, few available soldiers, so this candidate should be more cautious There is a candidate in the heart of the old slave, but he was transferred to Fujian, it is really a little inappropriate" Zou Yi bowed his head and spoke, But in the end, his eyes deliberately looked up and looked at the Empress Dowager Zhang's expression
Empress Dowager Zhang was calm and relaxed now, and asked lightly: "Who is the candidate in your heart?" ”
"The old slave thinks that Lord Yue, who is now at home, has a prestige, and has a reputation for deterring Xiaoxiao, if he goes to preside over the overall situation, don't say that it is not a problem to exterminate the rebels, it is estimated that he can also wipe out the Yangyi who occupy Penghu, recover the country, and raise the prestige of the country overseas, but Lord Yue is now at home, and he is the second assistant of the imperial court, and the minister of Tuogu, so the old slave feels that something is wrong" Zou Yi said while continuing to look at Zhang Yan's expression
When Zhang Yan heard Yue Su's name, the corners of her eyebrows moved, but she still listened carefully
"Let Yue Su go, he is an extremely suitable candidate, go to Fujian to suppress bandits and recover Penghu, he will definitely succeed" Speaking ......of this, Zhang Yan hesitated, weighing in his heart, whether he should use Yue Su
"Fujian is located in a barren land, far away from the Central Plains, far away from Beijing, even if he is allowed to take charge of some soldiers and horses, what can he do, he can't set off any storms in Nanjing, there is the Xu family in charge of the soldiers and horses, once there is a difference, it is enough to deal with it, and in terms of food and salary, supplies, it also needs to be supplied by the imperial court, and then strangle Jiangxi, and let him temporarily go there to be the emperor of the soil if there is nothing to do, and then you can also see whether he is loyal or not."
Zhang Yan's mind kept turning, and finally made up her mind, she smiled slightly, and said: "Yue Su sent this chapter yesterday, saying that he wanted to ask for his own favor, to quell the rebellion for the imperial court, and to suppress the bandits, the bandits over there in Fujian are also bandits, so be it, let Yue Su go to Fujian."
"Queen Mother Shengming" saw that Zhang Yan was willing to enable Yue Su, and Zou Yi bowed down to respond
However, Zhang Yan then made a difficulty, what kind of official position is better for Yue Su? Lord Yue is at least the second assistant of the imperial court, put it outside, no matter how you say it, you can't just give a strategy, isn't that a demotion, Lord Yue doesn't have any mistakes at present, or the first emperor's fateful minister, even if he goes to suppress bandits, he has to get by to a governor in terms of face, it is appropriate, when Hu Zongxian was peaceful, he served as the governor of the southeast, but the territory under the jurisdiction of the governor of the southeast seems to be too big, a whole five provinces, this has to be given to Yue Su, it is not the same as giving half of the wall to him, it must not be but, You can't just give it to the governor of Fujian Province, in this way, isn't it obviously a demotion, and I still tell Yue Su, I don't trust you very much, and the two sides are clearly tearing their faces
It's not appropriate to give one province, give five provinces, and she didn't worry that Zhang Yan was really difficult, so she had to ask Zou Yi for advice, "Zou Yi, if you let Yue Su go, why can't you seal the scriptures, what official position do you say is better?" "Zou Yi is so cunning, he immediately guessed the mind of the Empress Dowager Zhang, do you think that the governor of a province is too small, and the governor of the five southeastern provinces is not at ease, Yue Su, Yue Su, the court can't live without you at present, I'll help you again, I also hope that you will do it yourself, don't let down the first emperor Longen"
What the Queen Mother said is very much, with Lord Yue's current status as a secondary assistant, it is indeed inappropriate for the old slave to think that he can let Lord Yue be a governor and take charge of Fujian and Zhejiang, even if it is the governor of Fujian and Zhejiang, I don't know what the Queen Mother thinks? Zou Yi said cautiously
"...... Governor of Fujian and Zhejiang" After listening to Zou Yi's proposal, Zhang Yan groaned slightly, and then nodded again and again, and said: "Very good, very good, just seal Yue Su Governor of Fujian and Zhejiang, right, let Yue Su continue to send out the will of Ding Wei?" ”
"Back to the Queen Mother, Fang Shoufu just sent the prepared will to the celebrant this morning, and it is still here with the old slave, and it has not been sent out yet," Zou Yi replied
"That's good, this will be annulled, redraft, just write because the court is now in an eventful season, Fujian has rebels again, allow Yue Su Ding worry, please suppress the bandits' excerpt Yue Su as the governor of Fujian and Zhejiang, give the king the banner of the order, Shang Fang sword, the day of the will, immediately take office, go to Fujian to suppress the bandits"
"The Old Slave Obeys"
*******************************************************
Let Yue Su continue to worry is a sentence, let Yue Su enable it is another sentence, no matter what it is, people will move their mouths, and let you do whatever you want
The appointment of Yue Su as the governor of Fujian and Zhejiang, and the will to go to Fujian to suppress bandits was sent to Yunmeng County as soon as possibleAt the same time, there was also a letter, which was sent to Yunmeng County with the Holy Decree, and the speed of this letter was one step faster than the speed of the Holy Decree, and it arrived at Yue Su's home one day earlier
The letter was written by Yang Yishan, and the person who sent the letter was the person from the Changfeng Dart Bureau, so it was able to be one step faster than the holy decree The content of the letter is to fold Yue Su's performance into Beijing, what happened, and describe in detail Side such as, the Queen Mother previously planned to let the adults continue to worry about Ding, but because of the affairs of Fujian, Fang was able to reactivate, and appointed Sun Chengzong, the governor of Fujian and Zhejiang, Liaodong, to ask for a decree, Fang Congzhe approved, and suggested that Lord Xiong replace, and also proposed to let Wang Zaijin ***, as a result, the Queen Mother agreed to the current pattern in Beijing, and our power was greatly reduced, Many important positions have been robbed by Fang Congzhe's people, and the students have heard rumors, and when Beijing Cha next year, Fang Congzhe intends to shuffle the cards, and our people will go down a lot
After Yue Su read the letter, he immediately found Jiang Jie and handed it to him, so that after Jiang Jie read it, he shook his head and smiled, and said: "My lord, it seems that the Queen Mother is still suspicious of adults, I don't know if my lords are willing to accept the order to go to Fujian, and after arriving in Fujian, what are my plans?" ”
Yue Su smiled bitterly and said: "Sir, Su is the minister of Tuogu, by the kindness of the first emperor, it should be heart-to-heart, to repay you for this will, of course I want to take it, after all, I ask for love, I am willing to lead the army to suppress the bandits, I am now a police officer in Fujian, after I arrive, of course, I must go all out to exterminate the rebels, in order to eliminate the worries of the court, and fulfill the responsibility of the courtiers to guard the land As for the queen mother who will still be suspicious of me in the future, I can't think about it so much for a while, take one step at a time."
"The adult is really a great sage in the world, comparable to the Duke of Zhou, Jiang Jie admires" Jiang Jie said, bowing to Yue Su
"In the name of Duke Zhou, where dare Su be, Mr. has overpraised the will of the imperial court, it is estimated that it will be here in a blink of an eye, wait for you to tell Jin Chan to tell them, tell them to pack up and prepare to leave" Yue Su said
"My lord, my subordinates think that there is no need to inform them for the time being, even if they pack up, it is not bad to pack up in the house for a day and a half, and the person who delivered the decree will come, and it is bound to be able to see that when the person who delivers the decree arrives, he will go back and tell the Queen Mother that the Lord will know the content of the will first, and it will cause the Queen Mother's suspicion and cause some unnecessary trouble," Jiang Jie said
"What Mr. said is extremely true, it is Su is careless" Yue Su nodded and said, "According to what Mr. said, I will not notify them for the time being."
Their conversation was in Yue Su's study, and only the two of them were doing this, when the sound of footsteps suddenly came from outside the door, and soon the voice of the golden cicada sounded, "My lord"
"It's the golden cicada, come in," Yue Su said
With a "squeak", the door opened, and sure enough, the golden cicada walked in, and after he entered the door, he bowed one after another
"Jin Cicada, what is the matter with you asking to see you at this time?" Yue Su asked
"My lord, many fellows have just come to the house, saying that they saw the notice posted by the adults, and they have come to ask the adults to return the land," Jin Chan replied
"Oh" Yue Su nodded and said, "Please invite them to the flower hall to talk" After speaking, he picked up an account book on the table, stood up, went out with Jiang Jie and Jin Chan, and walked towards the flower hall
It turned out that after Yue Su killed Yue Jing and others, he sent people to post notices, but anyone who was oppressed by Yue Jing and Yue Xiao, was robbed of his family property, or had his family life forced to die, he could come to Yue's mansion and receive compensation
After this notice was just posted, no one dared to come to the house to collect it, Lord Yue killed so many people in the county office, so fierce, who dared to come to the door easily, what if he touched the tiger's might? God knows if it is a helpless move to kill Yue Jing and these people, acting in this world for the big guy to see, the meat that is eaten in the mouth, and the spit out?
The people who were really robbed of their family property did not dare to come to the door, naturally there was no dog who dared to come to the door for several days, no one came to the door, Lord Yue was still a little anxious, and specially sent his men into the city, invited the man surnamed Zhang who was robbed of the shop, returned the shop to him, and gave a compensation, one is the loss over the years, and the other is the daughter's pension
The man surnamed Zhang didn't expect that Yue Su would really spit out the meat he ate in his mouth, and he was moved to tears, kowtowing to Yue Su again and again, and thanked him a thousand times
When he returned to the city, he immediately publicized Yue Su's real compensation, and the other people who had been robbed of their family property came to the door later
There is an account book in the account room of Yue's house, which records the property obtained from where it was obtained in which year, month, and day, according to the above record, the name is seated, Yue Su compensates one by one, and the land that is taken away will be returned; If the shop is taken from it, the shop shall be returned; If there are people in the family who are forced to die, they will be given bereavement benefits, and in addition, just like compensating the man surnamed Zhang, they will be compensated for the losses of the past few years
Most of the people who went to the government today to receive compensation were some peasant households who had lost their land and had no choice but to live in other places, and they got the news relatively late, so they rushed to the account books at this time, and there were only more than 20 households left, but the land was no longer enough, and the money in the accounts had already been lost
Why is there less land and not enough, this is mainly because the mansion in the house occupies too much land and occupies some farmland, so it is not enough over the years, Yue Jing has actually made a lot of money, not that Yue Su has given too much compensation, so that the account has no money, it is really because Yue Jing transferred some of the silver away, and where it was hidden, Yue Su did not know
Arrived at the flower hall, after a while, Jin Cicada brought those farmers in, Yue Su asked them to report their names one by one, and explained how much land was occupied in the family, among these people, a few Yue Su still knew, and when they met, they also called Uncle and Uncle They naturally did not dare to falsely report, and they all truthfully said the number of please, Yue Su checked the account book, and saw that what they said was correct, so he made compensation
Don't look at the land that has been occupied, but Lord Yue still has the thousand acres of fertile land given by the Carpenter Emperor, Yue Su does not dare to reward others, but he can let others plant
Yue Su immediately said, how much is the value of your land, I will compensate according to the market price, a lot of money in the past few years, how much can the grain be worth, I will also supply you with a lot of money, you have no land to plant, I can give the emperor my land, tenant to you, no rent, as long as the emperor does not take back the land, these lands are still owned by my Yue family, you can cultivate for generations
When the peasants heard this, they hesitated for a moment, and then they agreed one by one that Lord Yue was such a big official, even if he occupied the land and didn't give it, you had to see and see, you can't tell Lord Yue how to go to the lawsuit, and no one dares to care about the price of the land and the compensation for these harvests, that is, he gave full capital, and he didn't lose money, and Lord Yue also gave you land to plant, these lands don't need to pay rent, and they don't have to pay taxes, and the grain they beat down is such a good thing that comes for nothing. It's no different from pie in the sky, no matter how many years he can grow it, he won't lose it
Seeing that everyone agreed, Yue Su immediately asked someone to go and get the silver, and there was no money in the tent, and Lord Yue and the silver rewarded by the carpenter emperor could take out some of them casually, and it would be enough to compensate them
After this matter was done, when it was time for dinner, Yue Su went to his mother's residence and ate with his mother, so to speak, since he finished guarding his father's grave and moved back to the house, Yue Su had eaten with his father every night, he felt that he was too indebted to his parents, and if he could have more meals with his mother, he would have to accompany him one more meal
Accompany the mother to eat, the three ladies must be present, there was no place for Du Shi Niang, but the old lady spoke, she must let Shi Niang sit next to her, and the big guys eat together
Tonight is no exception, it is still six people who have dinner together, after dinner, Yue Su helps his mother into the room to rest on ordinary days, and the three ladies will also go with him, talk to the old lady, and then leave, but tonight, Yue Su said that he would talk to his mother alone
In this way, the three ladies could only say goodbye first, and Du Shi Niang also had to retire, but in the end, she was kept by the old lady, "Shi Niang is my personal maid, our mother and son talk, there is nothing to carry behind her, just let her serve by the side"
Since his mother spoke, Yue Su couldn't say anything, so he nodded in agreement and accompanied his mother into the room with Shi Niang
Entering the room, Yue Su helped his mother to sit down on the bed, at this moment Du Shi Niang had already moved a chair over, let Yue Su sit down, and she was standing next to Yue Su It was the old lady, and said again: "Shi Niang, don't stand there, come, come and sit next to me"
Du Shi Niang's face turned red, and she said shyly: "Old lady, isn't this not very good......
"What's wrong, I'll let you come and sit, and you can come and sit," said the old lady
"This ......" Du Shi Niang groaned and looked at Yue Su, Yue Su smiled slightly, and said: "Mother asked you to go over and sit, you sit down"
"Then Shi Niang, thank you old lady" Shi Niang shyly walked to the edge of the bed and sat down, but her buttocks were gently next to the bed, and she did not sit down
After Shi Niang sat down, the old lady said, "Son, you let the three daughters-in-law leave tonight, do you want to tell me something?" ”
"Mother, this is the child expects, within a few days, there will be a will, the child will be restored, lead the army to quell the rebellion is just this walk, and I don't know when and what month to return to the mother, serve the mother So, the child plans to discuss with the mother, if the mother's body can stand the bumps, we will go on the road together, the child can always be by the mother's side to do filial piety for the father's death, the child has always been ashamed, regret why he did not take the second elder to his side, let the child as a son of man learn the lessons of the last time, The child plans not to leave his mother again," Yue Su said in a low voice
"The so-called son line thousands of miles mother worries, you are the mother's heart, no matter where you go, as long as you are not by the mother's side, the mother is very concerned, why don't you want to be able to see you every day, but the old saying is not it, loyalty and filial piety are difficult to achieve, you are loyal to the emperor, naturally there will not be so much time, accompany the mother but, the mother will not care about this, your deceased father, will not be picky, you are the descendants of the Yue family, you can have this achievement, but also the glory of the ancestors, to the ancestors and the ancestors of filial piety this time you can be enabled by the court, It is happy to fight for the mother, although there is also reluctance, but compared with your future, everything is secondary to the mother is already an old bone, and you can't walk if you want to go, you can't stand the bumps, you can't go with you Moreover, your father's grave is still here, and you also need someone to worship and clean up during the New Year's holidays. That mother can be blinded when she dies," said the old lady earnestly
Listening to his mother's words, Yue Su couldn't help but shed tears that he was a human being in two lives, with the memories of his previous life, he came to the Ming Dynasty, in his previous life, how could he have had such a warm "mother...... The child assures you...... I will definitely write to you often in the future...... Be sure to let you hold your grandson as soon as possible...... On weekdays, I make Sun ...... happy"
"Okay, good ......" The old lady grabbed her son's hand and said with tears in her eyes, and then, she grabbed Du Shi Niang's hand again, and put Yue Su and Shi Niang's hands together, and when Shi Niang's hand touched Yue Su's hand, Du Shi Niang seemed to be like an electric shock, her heart was indescribably nervous, and her pretty face was red with shame
Although she is already a person from the past, even she herself can't understand why this is so
"Son, Shi Niang is a good girl, and I have been with you for so many years, so I can't be nameless," the old lady said in a kind voice
"Mother's ......"
"Old lady......" Yue Su and Du Shi Niang lowered their heads together
"You two don't have to be shy, tonight, my old woman will be the lord of the last time, let Su'er Na Shi Niang be a concubine, are you two willing?" said the old lady with a smile
"Niang......" Yue Su also once considered Du Shi Niang's matter, people follow themselves, they can't even have a name, they are considered maids at home, or what is it Now that the mother has spoken, it is better to push the boat down the river, anyway, the mother also likes Shi Niang, so it is decided Thinking of this, Yue Su followed and said: "The child is all up to the mother."
"Shi Niang, what about you?" When the old lady saw her son agree, she turned her head to look at Du Siniang again
Now Du Shi Niang is full of joy, her head hangs lower, and when she saw the old lady ask again, she replied twistedly: "It's all up to the old lady to decide."
"Okay, since you all let me be the master, then I will be the master, from today on, Shi Niang is my daughter-in-law, but right now, Su'er has not served filial piety for three years, and it is inconvenient to marry, I think it will be simple, tonight I will drink this cup of daughter-in-law tea first, and wait until the three-year period expires, and then you will officially do things, you see, how about it?" The old lady said
"It's all up to the mother"
"It's all up to the old lady to decide"
"Why are you still called the old lady, you are now Su'er's concubine, I will drink daughter-in-law tea tonight" The old lady smiled deliberately
The meaning of this sentence could not be clearer, Du Siniang is also the smart lord of ice and snow, how can she not know the meaning of the words and hurriedly got up, went to pour a cup of tea, walked back to the bed, and knelt down respectfully
Yue Su was not lazy, as he knelt down by Shi Niang's side, accompanied Shi Niang to serve tea to his mother, when Yue Su got married, the old lady was not present, although it had been made up some time ago, but after all, it was not like that Now this cup of daughter-in-law tea, the old lady feels that she is the happiest
With Shi Niang's "Mother-in-law, please use tea", the old lady took it with a smile, took a sip, and said, "Good, good ......"
With this sentence, Du Shi Niang officially had a name, and the more the old lady looked at it, the more happy she became, and pulled Shi Niang and her son up, and let them sit beside her, holding the hands of the two people, with a smile on her face
