Chapter 499: Acceptance

"Mr. Shi is really familiar with the geography of Lingnan. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info" When Shi Hongzhi finished speaking, Li You couldn't help but high-five and praised, "After the army breaks the enemy, the court will definitely have a reward." Mr. Shi has been working hard all the way, let's go down to rest today, and then go south with the army tomorrow. Shi Hongzhi's performance made Li You slightly shaken his previous plan to destroy the Shi family's car skills, but the situation is still unclear at the moment, so he plans to delay the army first.

"It's... The grass people obeyed. The purpose of Shi Hongzhi's trip has not yet been revealed, and Li You sent him off, but Fang Cai's guidance also made him feel numb, so he could only leave as ordered.

After he left, Li You called the Black Ice Platform personnel arranged in the camp by Sima Cuo and instructed, "Go and check the details of this Shi Hongzhi, I think he and the Yongzhou historian are not of the same mind." ”

"Subordinates obey." This person took the order and quietly withdrew from the big tent, and the network of the Black Ice Terrace that had just entered Lingnan Road immediately became operational, digging out those unknown secrets through various channels.

In the next few days, when Li You led the army south, he also took Shi Hongzhi with him, and asked all the way about the human geography and political affairs of the places he went.

This Lingnan Road has been a barbaric land since ancient times, the land is barren, and the people live in hardship, and because the mountains are high and the emperor is far away, the local wealthy families are acting more and more unscrupulously, so the people's lives are more difficult than those in the Central Plains; Shi Hongzhi rarely met a character who was willing to listen to his tirade, and he also felt a little confidant, speaking of the rise, he didn't even care that Jiang Suiyun was by his side and began to comment on his political strategy after entering Lingnan Dao, "Jiang Daren's strategy has indeed grasped the key point of Lingnan Dao, only by cracking down on Haoqiang and reducing the burden on the people, Lingnan Dao can be rejuvenated; It's just that Master Jiang seems to have underestimated Zhu Haoqiang's determination to resist, so he had the previous fiasco. ”

Jiang Suiyun was not angry because he was pointed out to his face that he was wrong, but sighed and said, "If Mr. Shi had been by my side that day, the affairs of Lingnan Dao would not have developed like this." ”

"It's never too late to make amends." Li You set his eyes on Shi Hongzhi, "I don't know if Mr. Shi is willing to give in and serve as Lord Jiang's deputy for the time being?" Help Jiang people get rid of the drawbacks of Lingnan Road? ”

"This...."Shi Hongzhi was dizzy by this sudden news, being able to serve as a deputy of an observer is a good thing he never thought of before, as long as he can seize the opportunity to show his talent and improve the governance of Lingnan Dao a little, then it is not impossible to enter the court and become a member of the party in the future, which makes Shi Hongzhi, who has been hit repeatedly, rekindle his ambitions, but how to deal with the historian Li You has not yet spoken, which makes him hesitate.

"Dare to ask Lord Taiwei, what do you plan to do with my Yongzhou historian?" Shi Hongzhi seemed to have made up his mind, he turned over and dismounted, knelt on the ground and asked.

"Hehe, Mr. Shi regards himself as a child of the Shi family, I'm afraid the rest of the Shi family doesn't think so, right?" During this time, there was constant news coming from the Black Ice Terrace, Li You was also clear about how the Shi family treated Shi Hongzhi, with his talent, if he was placed in other families such as Langya Wang, I am afraid that he would have been cultivated as a backbone person long ago, but Shi Hongzhi still has no status in the Shi family, and when he encountered something, the Shi family asked him to make an idea, and he was thrown aside after the matter passed.

Seeing Shi Hong's face showing humiliation, Li You knew that he was actually quite unwilling in his heart, so he said in a somewhat more aggravated tone, "The Yongzhou historians colluded with the Nanban to enter the Great Wei, which is really a heinous crime, and after the official quells the Nanban, he will definitely uproot the Yongzhou historian to set an example, if Mr. Shi wants to intercede for them, he doesn't have to speak." ”

Without waiting for Shi Hongzhi to reply, Li You continued, "The Yongzhou historian is bound to fall, but not every Shi family member will be held accountable, and this official is not an indiscriminate murderer, those who are not deeply implicated will be let go, but Shi Daozhi and others must be dealt with strictly." Of course, if the Shi family is willing to stand up and help the imperial court pacify Lingnan, then the official will also look at his face and be a little more lenient when dealing with it afterwards. ”

"Lord Tai Wei!" This is undoubtedly a difficult choice, if he refuses, then the Shi family will have to face Li You's sky-high anger, not to mention that Shi Daozhi and other elders in the clan are inseparable, and those peripheral personnel who do not have much responsibility may be severely punished; But if Shi Hongzhi agrees, then he will have to face a break with the Izumi family.

"I heard that Mr. Shi's mother worked hard to raise Mr. Shi to grow up, and she taught her son a talent like Mr. Shi?" The reason suddenly changed his words, and he talked about something else, "For such a strange woman, the court should be rewarded, and this official intends to show Ling Ci's deeds to the imperial court after returning to Jiazhou, and ask the court to give him the title of Mrs. Decree." ”

The reason why Shi Hongzhi has not broken with the Shi family is because of his mother, now that he heard that Li You opened such a bargaining chip, the last line of defense in his heart has been completely broken, and even the main room of his dead father does not have such glory, if Li You's promise is fulfilled, then which of his mothers, who have worked hard all his life, will get the glory and scenery that he could not imagine before, and this gift is something he can't refuse no matter what.

"The grass people obey the orders of the Taiwei, and the grass people are willing to serve the adults, even if they smear their livers and brains." Shi Hongzhi didn't hesitate anymore and immediately fell to the ground.

"Haha, Mr. Shi, please get up." Li You also hurriedly turned over and dismounted and helped Shi Hongzhi up, and said with a laugh, "Now that Mr. Shi is willing to help, then the chaos in Lingnan Road is not a big deal." ”

"If Mr. Shi helps, Xia Guan dares to guarantee that Lingnan Dao will not lose to all the provinces in the Central Plains within three years." Jiang Suiyun was also overjoyed, according to what Li You said just now, Shi Hongzhi wanted to stay in Lingnan as his deputy, with such an assistant who was familiar with the local situation and full of wisdom, what else did he have to worry about?

"Hahaha." The three of them looked at each other, and laughed at the same time, their hearts were all generally happy and happy, which provoked Qin Shixin and others in the rear to keep looking, secretly guessing that they had encountered something good. (To be continued.) )
