Chapter 64: The Big Deal
After the three foreigners were tortured with sticks, they had to carry the flail outside, and the people pointed and threw some garbage to beat, and the misery was indescribable. Fortunately, Fifth Sister Han had a conscience, so she took the money to buy medicine for them, and bought some chicken and fish stew soup to replenish her body, and finally saved the lives of the three of them.
The people of Xiangshan are still waiting for Li Yanqing to carry out a special campaign to crack down on the people, and they have watched the foreigners' boards and the excitement of the flail a few times. But I didn't know that the eldest man retreated from the hall with his front foot, changed into civilian clothes with his back foot, took Qin Ruizhu out of the back door, and went straight to Guangzhou City.
When he entered the city, Li Yanqing said: "This Guangzhou is much more than Xiangshan, it is a real lively place, let me take you to have a good time?" Just say what you like, I'll take you to buy it. ”
Qin Ruizhu shook her head and said, "It's important to get down to business, forget about this play." When you see Lin Shouzheng and them, I will also be by your side. ”
"That's not going to work. I brought you here because I was afraid that you would stay in the yamen and be plotted. After all, who killed Senior Cai, we haven't visited it yet. But it's not okay to take you to meet guests. Although you are a woman dressed as a man, if you are seen by an old Jianghu, I am afraid that it will be troublesome. ”
Qin Ruizhu rolled in the public gate during this time, and also listened to a lot of yamen. Suddenly asked: "Then if one day, your Shangguan takes a fancy to Miss Liu and asks you to sacrifice a concubine to protect yourself, what should the lord do?" ”
"So what? Naturally, he abandoned the official seal and fled. Otherwise, he will kill the plagued Shangguan with a knife, and everyone will die and the net will be broken. ”
"Then what if your Shangguan takes a fancy to me?"
"It's also a general disposition. In my heart, you and Ye Qing are neck and neck, no matter how superior they are. I fancy you, and I'm just as desperate. ”
"Shameless. Eating in the bowl, still thinking about the pot. Qin Ruizhu muttered, but there was no anger on her face, but she said obediently: "I'm not going anywhere in the store, just wait for you to come back." But if the provincial city refuses to fight, don't be reluctant, this matter will not be in our Xiangshan, and it has nothing to do with you. ”
Lin Shouzheng listened to the report, and his reaction was no different from Qin Ruizhu's. "Lord Liu, you asked the official out just for this? I thought you were here for show...... What about it. You must know that this is the kind of thing, and the old man won't even move. What do these short-haired thieves have to do with you? You don't want to chase after the wind and catch the shadows, and use your brains to the neighboring counties, which is not a good habit in officialdom. ”
"Thank you Lin Weng for your advice, but this time the truth is too big, if you are careless, I'm afraid that even the provincial capital will not be safe." Those short-haired thieves colluded with the Japanese and razor, privately made guns, bullets and cannons, and recruited outlaws. Once they raise an army and make a rebellion, Lin Weng, I am afraid that you will also be implicated. Xia Guan also heard from the Yi people that they had secretly made flags and wanted to buy armor. ”
It's not that Lin Shouzheng doesn't know the power of this matter, but he doesn't want to admit in his heart that there is a tendency to gather anti-thieves under his rule. Therefore, I want to detain this in advance, and then instruct Nanhai County to investigate.
But seeing Li Yanqing's heavy face, he didn't dare to refute it too much. You must know that this guy has a very close relationship with Jinyiwei, once he stabs this matter to Lei Laohu, and he doesn't do anything, maybe Jinyiwei will make a note for himself.
And to make flags and buy armor, no matter how you sound it, it really looks like a rebellion. It is said that Wu Guifang, in order to prevent the rebellion of the sailors, has sent the standard battalion over to suppress and deter, and also arrested many people in the army.
If there was a mutiny under the rule of Guangzhou, Guo Anbang would not be the first to spare himself. The last time the White Lotus Sect happened, it is said that he paid out of his own pocket and paid a military salary to the Guangdong sailors. He must have wanted to eat flesh and skin on himself in his heart, and at this time he sent the handle to him, even if he didn't die, he would have to go to half his life.
He sighed secretly, originally at his own age, he should return to his hometown after a few years, and he wanted to do nothing and stabilize 6, but this time I am afraid that he will not be able to do it.
"It's not that the old man is careless, it's just that the short-haired thief's men and horses say a lot more, and a lot less. If you want to get rid of them, you have to mobilize officers and soldiers. These battalions are no better than the regular army of the guards, and it is very difficult to mobilize, and just a paper exchange will toss people to death. And the underpaid ......"
"Lin Weng rest assured, this issue of military salary, with the county's Liang Yuan's foreign sponsorship of 1,500 taels of military salary, plus the income from the thieves, should be enough for expenses. The Franc of Gongchangdu and the young and strong people of the local clan are all willing to send troops, and the local battalion soldiers are just pressing the formation, and a few times together, to ensure a big victory, and the old man will also have a bright face at that time. ”
The brilliance is not disgraceful, it is small, but this anti-thief thing is indeed big. Once he let it go, Liu Chaozuo was angry and sued directly, and it was strange that Wu Guifang could spare himself. Lin Shouzheng had no choice but to sigh, "You, you're just going to make trouble for me." If you really lose the battle this time, you will bear this basket yourself, and the official will not care. ”
Two days later, at this banquet, there were two more Guangdong Jinyi Wei Qianhu Lei Yixiao and Qianhu Guangzhou garrison Li Tianliang. Originally, this kind of excerpt of sending troops was the most troublesome, and Li Yanqing was ready to wait for more than half a month.
After Ryanstein reported the matter of the short-haired thief, Lei Yixiao went directly to Jinyiwei's procedure and sent the documents to Wu Guifang as soon as possible.
And the governor Wu Guifang's reaction was also amazingly fast, and he immediately ordered all the garrison battalions in Guangzhou to be dispatched to be sure to wipe out all the thieves. At the same time, the naval division of Guangdong also received a great order from the governor, demanding that the Guangzhou government unconditionally cooperate with the anti-bandit work without delay. The arrears of military salaries were paid in advance by the Guangzhou Treasury and then made up by the taxes.
Lei Yixiao's side had received the order from Shangfeng long before this, but this order was secretive, and Lin Shouzheng's level was not qualified to know about it, let alone Li Yanqing. Second, the content of the order was vague, and Lei Laohu didn't know how to execute it. This time, I received this secret report, and I was simply sleepy and sent a pillow.
He slapped his big hand on the table, "A few, a great future of fame is just around the corner." I have a lot of things I can't say, I can't say, and I shouldn't say. All I can say is that this battle is won, and everyone is waiting for the promotion of officials. If it's really bad, wash your neck and wait for the knife to eat. Even if you are a civil official, you can't bear it. ”
Lin Shouzheng also felt that the degree of dispatching troops this time was incredible, and it was not in line with the normal time of official correspondence in the Ming Dynasty. And his attitude was also a little tough, he didn't dare to ask more, just looked at Li Tianliang, "General Li, how is your situation?" ”
Li Tianliang smiled bitterly: "Actually, I got the order earlier than you. Yu Zhentai had already issued a secret order, ordering me to visit the pirates and exterminate them as soon as they appeared. It's just that a large group of pirates who fit the description have never been visited, and I almost ate a baton for this. This time, it can be regarded as Liu Daling who saved me, otherwise I don't know how I will explain. Don't worry, my son-in-law is ready, even if you fight hard, you have to give me a top. ”
Lin Shouzheng, as an old fritter in officialdom, has rich experience, and when he heard this description, he only felt that his cold hairs stood up. The Jinyi guards, governors, and battalion soldiers were not in communication with each other, but they were all on high alert at the same time, and they all hid their local officials. That only shows that I am afraid that I am a big deal, and I am a big deal.
