Chapter Forty-Nine: Have You Ever Heard of the Brocade Guard's Edict?
Leaving the General's Mansion, Lu Fan did not stay idle, but went straight to Yanghe Dao Bingbei Mansion.
Yanghe Military Garrison Mansion, which belongs to the direct subordinate organization of the General Military Mansion of Datong Town, is in charge of the entire Yanghe Dao's military armor, grain and grass and other things, although the military garrison is also a third-grade official, but it has always been extremely powerful, even if it is a general from all over the country, it has to look at their faces.
After all, money and food are in the hands of others, and if you are not obedient, you will have to go hungry, who dares to make a mistake here?
As the chief counselor of Yanghe East Road, it stands to reason that when Lu Fan visits, the Military Reserve Mansion will always send someone to greet him.
But what people expected was that Lu Fan traveled all the way, no one came forward to stop him, and no one came forward to greet him, so he came to the lobby of the military mansion unimpeded.
In the hall, there was no one, not even a guard on duty, the guards beside Lu Fan shouted a few times, and only then did two sleepy-eyed people walk out of the back hall.
"Oh, it turned out to be General Lu, what kind of good day is today, and you have been invited to your old man's house?"
One of them, a thin middle-aged man wearing a red Zhengsanpin official uniform, smiled indifferently after seeing Lu Fan, and then did not greet the other party, but sat on the main seat in the lobby by himself.
"Say, Lu Shen is coming here, what are you doing?"
Lu Fan casually pulled a chair and sat down, looked at the person in the main seat lightly, and said, "Wang Bingbei, this official has just arrived, but what has offended you?"
"Don't dare to offend!" The smile on Wang Bingbei's face retracted, and he didn't seem to want to explain, and said: "Let's talk straight, what is the matter with Lu Shen's future military garrison?"
Lu Fan was also not polite, and directly made his intentions clear, "Thanks to Your Majesty's love, I was able to guard the East Road." I'm new here, and I need a lot of support from the military commanders!"
"Lord Lu laughed, you see my military garrison mansion, poor jingling, I can't even see anyone on weekdays, what can I use to support you?"
Speaking of this, Wang Bingbei planned to serve tea to the guests.
"If there is nothing else, General Lu will go back and forth, my temple is small, and I can't accommodate your big Buddha!"
Lu Fan sat in place with a golden knife, without the slightest intention of getting up, looked directly at the other party, and said coldly: "You look at the robe on the official's body, think about it again, the official will give you a chance to speak again!"
Wang Bingbei was stunned for a moment, staring at the robe of the Jinyi Guard Commander on Lu Fan's body for a long time, before realizing that the person in front of him was not only a local general, but also the Jinyi Guard Commander who held the power of life and death!
"The princes of the court miscalculated, since he was given the position of general, why didn't he get rid of the position of commander of the Jinyi Guard?"
He muttered dissatisfiedly in his heart, but his face gradually stiffened, and he barely put on a smile, and asked, "Then I don't know how General Lu wants this official to support here?"
"The official is ready to vigorously promote the policy of clearing the wasteland on the East Road, but the development of new fields costs a lot, and the money and grain needed, the cattle are cultivated, and there are many seeds.
The smile on Wang Bingbei's face suddenly became a little ugly.
In this entire East Road, who doesn't know that Lu Fan has huge wealth in his hands.
When he first took office, he commanded thousands of elite horsemen, and there were countless carriages of all kinds that accompanied him, and if it was estimated at less, he had to have two or three million taels of silver.
This guy has been in office for more than ten days, and he doesn't come to the military garrison to pay homage to one or two, but he didn't expect to come here to fight the autumn breeze and cry poor!
"General Lu, it's not that the official doesn't want to help, it's really that the East Road has been very poor in recent years, and the Military Reserve Mansion really can't spare extra material resources here. I don't believe you ask the guards and ethics of the East Road, in the past two years, they have raised money and food on their own and found their own way, and I can't help at all here!"
You cry poor, and I complain, isn't it just pretending to be poor, who wouldn't?
Lu Fan's face turned cold, and he got up and said: "East Road Tuntian, Ma Zheng and other affairs, this is your Wang Bingbei's responsibility, 10,000 ploughing cattle and supporting farm tools, as well as the grain needed to open up the wasteland, in three days, I will see a lot of them!"
"And!" Lu Fan turned his head to look at the person beside Wang Bingbei, and said: "I think you are the general judge of the military garrison mansion, and then the East Road will train the soldiers, and the matter of food and salary will be bothered by you to help you a lot." ”
"This ......." The grain manager hesitated, instinctively wanting to refuse.
But Lu Fan shook his sleeves and said coldly: "Have you two ever heard of the Jinyi Guard's edict?"
Wang Bingbei and the general judge were stunned for a moment, and then their bodies trembled involuntarily a few times.
"The Jinyi Guard Edict Prison has already started to be built in Yanghe City! I don't care what difficulties the two of you have, but it has delayed the agricultural time and delayed the training of the officials, so I don't mind taking the two adults on a day trip to the Jinyi Guard Edict Prison!"
Leaving such a cruel sentence, Lu Fan waved his robe, and then left the Yanghe Dao Soldier Mansion without looking back.
Wang Bingbei watched Lu Fan go away coldly, and only after making sure that the other party had completely left, did he angrily grab the teacup on the table and throw it on the ground.
"Rampant, domineering!"
"There is no one in sight, lawlessness!"
After scolding hysterically for a long time, after the anger had subsided for a while, the chief asked in a low voice, "Lord Wang, should we report this matter to the Chief Soldier?"
Wang Bingbei was silent for a long time, and waved his hand dejectedly.
"It's useless, this Lu Fan is not an ordinary general, believe it or not, we just sent someone to complain, and we have to be arrested and imprisoned by that Lu Fan?"
"No, after all, this is Datong Town, and the total number of soldiers is tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, so Lu Fan, do you really dare to mess around?"
"Why wouldn't he dare?" Wang Bingbei calmed down completely, and his mind was unexpectedly good at this moment.
"He has thousands of elite cavalry under his command, and he is nominally the commander of the Jinyi Guard who supervises the world and can arrest and judge the case on his own, this kind of person, as long as he does not rebel, the chief soldier is there, it is estimated that he will not rashly fight each other for the sake of the two of us!"
"Okay, just according to what Lu Fan said, prepare all the money and grain for the ploughing cattle in advance, otherwise, maybe we will really have to go to the Imperial Prison in three days!"
Speaking of the edict, both of them showed horror in their eyes.
They have never been in the Imperial Prison, but the terrible Imperial Prison is known to everyone in the entire Ming Dynasty, that is, the purgatory of the world, which is no different from the legendary Yama Palace.
Once there, it is said that wanting to die has become a luxury!
After sighing, Wang Bingbei suddenly laughed to himself again.
"You have also seen this Lu Fan's domineering today, with his character, it is estimated that it will not be long before he has to fall out with his local military attachés such as garrisons and ethics, let's do our job well and wait to watch the show!"
Whether it was Lu Fan or the local military attaché, he didn't have a good impression.
In his opinion, it is better to fight, dog eats dog, and it is best to be ordered to be questioned!
