Chapter 264: Choice
Lin Jiu refused the emperor's solicitation, if a literati knew about this, they might give her an evaluation of not admiring power, but for the emperor, Lin Jiu's refusal was tantamount to rebellion.
The emperor can't tolerate a person he can't control and can't predict, and the person who grows up safely in the Great Zhou, and the one who goes along prospers and the one who rebels perishes!
"That place in the capital is not suitable for me, one day in the future, if it is really impossible to do anything, I would rather go back to the mountains and spring women."
The answer given by Lin Jiu still did not disappoint Chu Linghui, but this was the thing that distressed Chu Linghui the most.
Seeing the bitterness on Chu Lingxuan's face, Lin Jiu patted his chest very confidently and said, "Don't worry, even if you are demoted to a commoner one day, as long as we are together, we can still have a different scene." ”
Lin Jiu's words are not good words for a man, but every word is heartwarming, after Chu Linghui was demoted to Yunzhou, his mood has been gloomy, and until today there is a sign of clearing the clouds.
"Besides, now that you and I are in Yunzhou, we must always do what we need to do." Chu Linghui got up and stretched out his hand to Lin Jiu with a smile.
Lin Jiu thought for a while, stretched out his hands as if a leader was meeting, held Chu Lingxuan's hand and said, "Encourage it!" Encourage it! ”
After Chu Linghui issued the new tax law, it caused a great sensation in Yunzhou, which meant that those wealthy families who controlled a large number of workshop industries had to spend a considerable part of their money to enrich the treasury of Yunzhou Prefecture.
If interests are damaged, there will naturally be people who will rise up to oppose it. However, Chu Linghui's so-called restructuring only broke the rules of default division of interests between those big families, and did not change the system and regulations less.
This makes those who want to continue their interests not know how to find trouble with Chu Linghui, the new prefect.
can only rely on the connections under his control to put pressure on Chu Linghui.
However, this is still no threat to Chu Linghui, the emperor spent a lot of manpower and financial resources from the beginning of the army to the capture of the capital, and now the treasury is empty, there can be a legitimate way to collect money, why not. Of course, that's all for later.
The three-day period has arrived, and Yin Zi has reached the time when it is time to return to the capital, but he did not wait for Chu Linghui to come.
Watching Lin Jiu stuff large bags of Yunzhou specialties into the carriage, Yin Zidu's expression was a little helpless. Although he had long known that Lin Jiu would not be able to leave with him, when it was time to part, he was still a little disappointed in his heart.
"Don't stuff it, your Chu fox has become a loner now, even if you bring these sustenances to the capital and go to my general's mansion, no one should accept them."
Lin Jiu said with a smile: "I don't ask them to do anything, just show favor, this kind of favor can not only take advantage of it, but also get Chu Linghui's favor, this is a very cost-effective deal." ”
Yin Zidu sighed: "Not everything can be as pure as buying and selling. ”
Lin Jiu patted Yin Zidu's shoulder and said, "So, Yin Zidu, we are friends forever, and there is nothing at stake in this." ”
Yin Zidu slapped Lin Jiu's hand away, and said with a depressed face: "Don't think that I will be moved if you say this, don't forget, it was you Chu Fox who pushed me. into the fire pit. ”
"You are right, Wei Wenshu Nan Nizi, although there are some flaws in her personality, but that is the value of training, I have already calculated it for you, you are a match made in heaven."
Yin Zidu looked at Lin Jiu with disdain, "Then you tell me that Wei Wenshu and I have eight birthdays." ”
Lin Jiu was stunned for a moment, and slapped Yin Zidu on the shoulder again, "Those are not important, the important thing is that I know that you are very suitable between you." ”
Yin Zidu waved his hand and said: "Forget it, I won't talk so much with you, you and Chu Fox take care of your life, if you are not swallowed by those old and young masters in the end, I will come to you again for a drink." ”
After saying this, Yin Zidu turned over and left with the convoy.
This is Lin Jiu's idea for him, Yin Zidu suddenly left and returned suddenly this time, there must be an explanation, go to his future wife's hometown to buy some items to comfort his homesickness, this is a good reason.
At a glance, a discerning person will know that this reason is a lie, but as far as the Yin Wei family is concerned, they need a step.
"Gone!" Yin Zidu waved his hand at Lin Jiu. Jiangsu Literature Network
The convoy left, and Chu Linghui walked out from behind a big tree on Lin Jiu's left.
"As a friend, you can be exempted from sending each other for ten miles, but you should also say some parting words!" Lin Jiu said angrily.
Chu Linghui shook his head and said: "This time is different from the past, and the old general Chu will not want me and his son to cross paths again, and the Chu family will only have me, the lost dog, after all." ”
"You, sometimes you really have to study hard and learn from Yin Zidu, although you have a little bit of back, but you don't feel sorry for yourself."
"Yin Zi can do whatever he wants, I can't, I can stay with you, but he can't." Although Chu Linghui looked lamenting, Lin Jiu always felt that there was a bit of trepidation in it.
While the two were talking, not far from them, there was a commotion, which Lin Jiu and Chu Linghui had become accustomed to.
Chu Linghui moved other people's pockets, so he naturally had to endure the other party's counterattack.
Open guns and hidden arrows, these days, Chu Linghui has been assassinated almost every day, of course, most of them have not been able to reach Chu Linghui's face.
Although Chu Linghui has not been able to fully mobilize the officers and soldiers of Yunzhou Mansion so far, with the existence of Zhang Qiao, a mixed river dragon, it is more efficient to deal with those who are lurking in the dark.
After Zhang Qiao captured the assassins, he ordered his men to escort them to the government and temporarily detain them, and after asking the instigators behind them, Chu Linghui came to the door with a confession, and the treasury of Yunzhou could be enriched again.
Chu Linghui's accumulation of wealth is so fast, and the wealth is huge, even Lin Jiu feels very frightened, the benefits obtained by power are much higher than those of businessmen.
It's just that the government oppresses the wealthy clans, and those wealthy clans naturally transfer their losses to the people, and the final result is likely to be anger and resentment.
With Chu Lingxuan's wisdom, he naturally understands these things, but what he wants to do now is to let those big families know that the state has given them everything, and they naturally have the ability to take it back.
"Let's go!" Chu Linghui's gaze only stayed on those assassins for a moment before moving away.
"You're going to trouble those people again?" Lin Jiu asked.
Chu Linghui said lightly: "I have already told them that here, as long as they follow the rules, they can still be like fish in water." ”
Lin Jiu rolled his eyes at Chu Lingjue: "It's just that this rule was formulated by them in the past, and now you are a robber in their eyes." ”
"You've already met with Lady Kim?" Chu Linghui stopped and turned around and asked.
Lin Jiu said: "She is here to remind us that if this continues, we will probably not even be able to get out of Yunzhou, and we will kill ourselves. ”
"We're running out of time." Chu Linghui said.
Lin Jiu pondered the meaning of these words, and after a while, when she raised her head and wanted to ask, Chu Linghui had already walked away.
The mansion of the Tang King in the capital, which was originally used to put the Tang King under house arrest, became his residence after the Tang King re-entered the dynasty.
As the king of Tang, he should have found a better place to live, but he regarded himself as a criminal minister and did not accept the mansion rewarded by the emperor. Seeing that the Tang King was so insistent, the emperor had no choice but to give up in the end.
In the pond in the backyard of the palace, the emperor and the king of Tang sat side by side, as if they were fishing.
"Fourth, I came to your house today to know that you have a grudge in your heart." Zhou Rong's tone was flat and majestic.
Tang Wang Zhou Yu didn't feel anything about this, smiled and said: "Brother Huang, you are too worried, your brother is on the wrong team, and now the brother of the emperor still lets his brother enter the court to participate in politics, how generous is this, how can the brother not know what to do?" ”
"If that's the case, you won't go all out to match the Wei family and the Yin family, it seems that you are ready to vent this grievance on Chu Lingxuan."
Zhou Yu wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Zhou Rong waving his hand: "I don't care how you deal with him, but you have to know a bottom line, that is, Chu Linghui can't die, if he dies, I will let people bury him." ”
