Chapter 85: Finding Out Important News
When Lin Tianyang and Chen led the two people to the embankment, Master Zhou was directing everyone to strengthen the embankment, and Wang Dakuan was directing everyone to drive wooden piles. With the Dream ()
"You all go about your business, keep an eye on them, this is a big deal, you can't be sloppy." Commander Chen said to Du Chengli's entourage.
Hearing Commander Chen's words, Du Chengli waved his hand and let those people leave.
"We just went to check out the situation over there, and it's someone who is encouraging the refugees to make trouble." Lin Tianyang said, and then briefly said what had happened, but he hid a lot of things, and there were some things he still didn't want Du Chengli to know now.
After listening to Lin Tianyang's story, Wang Dakuan, Zhou Zhushu and Du Chengli's faces were not good-looking, this matter can be big or small, and we must think of a perfect solution.
Wang Dakuan said: "Lord Du, now our focus is on the flood, since those people have stabilized, we can breathe a sigh of relief for the time being, we are now undermanpowered, we can't win with one blow to those people, if we force our hands, those victims will definitely stand on their side, a large-scale battle is not a trivial matter, and it is not comparable to grabbing a few truckloads of grain." ”
Du Chengli nodded and said, "That's right, then let's wait for Lord Zhao to arrive and then discuss countermeasures together, you and I can't afford to take responsibility for the refugee riot." ”
Everyone nodded, this is also what Lin Tianyang and Commander Chen meant, the target of those people is Zhao Shanfeng, and they must ensure Zhao Shanfeng's safety.
"The two of you have done a good job this time, I will tell Lord Zhao, those mobs will be watched by the two of you, you must appease them, and don't let them make trouble anymore." Du Chengli said to Lin Tianyang and Commander Chen.
Lin Tianyang and Commander Chen glanced at each other, and then saluted together and said, "Yes, my lord!" ”
"Alright, you can go and keep an eye on them now." Du Chengli said.
Lin Tianyang said hello to Commander Chen and left.
In fact, Du Chengli originally wanted Lin Tianyang to go alone, but this matter was investigated by Lin Tianyang and Commander Chen, and only let Lin Tianyang go alone, and he was afraid that Commander Chen's credit would be snatched away by Lin Tianyang; And although Commander Chen is in charge of security, he is the person next to the emperor after all, and he is also sent by the emperor to Lord Zhao, Du Chengli has no right to deploy, but he is really afraid, if these victims riot again, the black veil on his head will be lost.
Looking at the backs of Lin Tianyang and Commander Chen, Master Zhou whispered: "My lord, these two people are dead under Lord Zhao, are you overstepping your authority by doing this?" Besides, Commander Chen is still a person close to the emperor, if you talk to him like this, aren't you afraid that he will join the emperor in a copy of you? ”
Hearing this, Du Chengli sighed and said helplessly: "I don't want to, you don't know, the emperor also sent me a guard of ten people, but before the disaster riot, two were killed and three were injured, and the remaining five I sent to keep an eye on those mobs, and now there are no people with high martial arts around me, if there is, I will not send the two of them." ”
Hearing this, Wang Dakuan and Master Zhou both glanced at each other, and the two of them had no choice, and now they can't care so much, so they can only do this.
"Hurry up with power, Commander Chen also knows the stakes in this matter, and he won't mind, as long as there are no mistakes, otherwise, none of us can escape the involvement; Besides, Master Du is the biggest official here, and he can command them, so don't take this matter to heart. Wang Dakuan said.
Hearing Wang Dakuan's words, Du Chengli glanced at him gratefully and didn't say anything more.
"My lord, the two of us won't be with you, and we'll have to watch them build the embankment." Wang Dakuan said.
"Go, go, I'm busy with you, I'll let people prepare meals, I don't understand this, and I can only be a fire leader." Du Chengli said with a smile.
Lin Tianyang and Commander Chen are both willing to be by Du Chengli's side, and Commander Chen does not have a deep friendship with him, and it is not convenient to do things by his side; And Lin Tianyang has no good impression of Du Chengli, the person who intercepted and killed Zhao Shanfeng before was the person who served in the household, and Du Chengli was the secretary of the household, if he had nothing to do with that incident, Lin Tianyang didn't believe it.
"Brother Lin, I think those two killers are following Master Zhao, what do you think?" Commander Chen said suddenly.
Hearing Commander Chen's words, Lin Tianyang paused for a moment, and then said: "It's possible, the master last time and the two of us fought a defeat, that person's strength is super strong, those people should know that Lord Zhao has such a guard by his side, they should not dare to act easily, only to catch the chaos of the disaster riot to create opportunities." ”
"But there is one thing I don't understand, Lord Zhao is already an old man, and he can't be the secretary of the Ministry of Industry for a few years, why do those people have to kill him? And it was a succession of assassinations, did they value this position so much? ”
Hearing Lin Tianyang's next few words, Commander Chen glanced at Lin Tianyang, and then asked, "Brother Lin, how long have you been with Lord Zhao?" ”
"It's been just a few months, what's wrong?" Lin Tianyang asked puzzled.
"That's right, there are a lot of things you don't know yet." Commander Chen said, and then continued: "Actually, it's not a secret thing, many people know it, that is, every important position or special position, there are some secrets, only the emperor and the head of those positions know, I think those people are so anxious to make a move on Lord Zhao, it should be for the secret in his hand." ”
Hearing this explanation, Lin Tianyang was stunned for a moment, he really didn't know about this matter, maybe it was really for this matter.
"If Lord Zhao is dead, will they be able to get that secret?" Lin Tianyang asked.
Commander Chen shook his head and said, "Not necessarily, it's basically impossible to get, but if Lord Zhao dies, that secret will fall into the hands of the next Ministry of Works." ”
Lin Tianyang still didn't quite understand, and said: "Then the question arises, how can they be sure that the next secretary of the Ministry of Industry will be their person?" Will they be able to decide who will be in such an important position? This should have been decided by the emperor himself after several adults discussed, right? ”
Commander Chen laughed when he heard this, and said: "That's because you still don't know much about Lord Zhao, the current Lord Zhao is not like when he was young, at that time, almost everyone said that he was a stone in the pit, smelly and hard, no one could let him change what he had already recognized, he also contradicted the first emperor at the beginning, and choked the first emperor, but then he still rewarded him; Therefore, for so many years, some people have been engaged in small actions against him, but they have all been blocked by the emperor, otherwise, he would have died many times. ”
Lin Tianyang showed a look of sudden realization when he heard this, and said: "I know, those people can't get that secret from Lord Zhao, so they thought that the next person must be as difficult to deal with as Lord Zhao, so they bet on the next one." ”
Commander Chen said with a smile: "Smart, but this is only one aspect, and the other side is that once Lord Zhao is killed, the Ministry of Industry will be chaotic, and someone can take the opportunity to steal that secret." ”
"And what is the secret that makes them so scheming? Is it related to ... Lin Tianyang stopped talking halfway through and looked at Commander Chen.
Commander Chen shook his head and said, "It shouldn't be, the secrets that Lord Zhao has are not one or two, but many, some of which will be destroyed when he leaves office, this is a rule and a principle." ”
Lin Tianyang showed a look of sudden realization and said: "I know, no wonder there are so many lost things in this world, or legends, or secret realms, which are all caused by this regulation and principle." ”
"Hahahaha... Little brother, interesting, what you said may also be right. Commander Chen said with a smile.
Lin Tianyang and Commander Chen found a place and stared at Ma Weidong and their direction from a distance, and Commander Chen took the opportunity to tell Lin Tianyang something that many people knew but Lin Tianyang didn't know.
Early the next morning, Wang Dakuan, who was bloodshot with bloodshot eyes, and Master Zhou called Lin Tianyang and Commander Chen to him.
Wang Dakuan pulled the two people aside and whispered: "The flood can basically be controlled, the experienced old man said, the rain will stop today, but the matter here has not been completely resolved, I want you to report the situation here to Lord Zhao, I know that Lord Du was there before, it is inconvenient for you to say something, I am afraid that others will not be able to say clearly." ”
"I'll go, I'm familiar with the situation here, and I won't deal with them, so let Commander Chen stay and communicate with Lord Du." Lin Tianyang said with a smile.
"You kid, what do I have to communicate with him?" Commander Chen said with a glare.
"Then you go, go and come back quickly, we need to know what the adults think of these mobs, and I will try to persuade them to lay down their arms and build a dam together." Wang Dakuan said.
"Okay, I'll be sure to go and get back quickly." Lin Tianyang said.
Lin Tianyang came to the yamen, found the horse he was riding when he came, rode out of the city, and rushed to the direction where Zhao Shanfeng and they came.
Lin Tianyang ran for two days and two nights in a row, and did not stop until the horses were foaming at the mouth, so that the horses could rest, eat some grass, and recover their strength, while he was eating on horseback, anyway, there was a lot of food and drink in his storage ring, and he was not hungry.
