readx;? Back at Long Qingfeng, the sky had already darkened. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info Zhu Lin got out of the carriage and went to visit Li Zhi first. The spirit is much better. I had just finished eating under the service of a newly invited maid. After Zhu Lin visited Li Zhi, he suddenly remembered something, and called Liu Fubei, who was still busy rushing to eat, and asked Liu Fubei to take away all those traps in two days! Zhu Lin didn't know what the reason was, wouldn't it be better not to retaliate anyway? Just as he was saying to Liu Fubei, Zhao Mingdao hurriedly came over with a small bamboo tube. How big is this bamboo tube, it is the size of two knots of the little thumb! opened his mouth and said, "Young master, the Red Flag District is urgent!" After speaking, he took the small bamboo tube to Zhu Lin. When Liu Fubei saw this situation, he confessed and retreated.

Zhu Lin took the small bamboo tube, put it on the candle and roasted it, and baked off the sealed glue. Poured out the small paper roll inside. Spread out two small pieces of paper. Densely written on it are words smaller than an ant's head. Zhu Lin took a huge magnifying glass and looked at it.

After reading it, Zhu Lin immediately put the two notes on the candle and burned them. Turning his head to Zhao Mingdao, he said, "You wait a minute, I'll write a reply." Zhu Lin went to the study, picked up the pen and wrote there. "Uncle Zhu! Everything has been learned! Heighten vigilance, take precautions. If this happens again, don't be afraid of anything. Fight to the death, chase and fight! As for those prison guards, I will mention them to the righteous king here. If you cause trouble again, you will be eliminated directly! Lu Song led a battalion of the militia group to Jeseong. Help the eldest brother defend the city. The second brother will not go to Lingshanwei for the time being. As for the dispatch of the militia group, this side will be settled. Make up your mind. If this is not feasible, the militia will withdraw the repair before June or July. As for the purchase and sale of mines, Chief Engineer Yang was asked in detail whether there was any value in the sale. Reward the personnel involved in this operation of the Intelligence Department. Arrive at the end of the day. "Zhu Lin wrote a secret letter. It is made up of a combination of numbers. That's what it translates to. This kind of secret letter can only be known by Skin Monkey and Xue Min against the secret letter book. Even if others see it, they don't know what the long number on it represents.

Zhu Lin rolled up. Stuff it into a small bamboo tube dedicated to sending secret messages. Why did Zhao Mingdao hurry to find himself just now. It's just to see this little bamboo tube. Once this small bamboo tube appears. It means urgency. Urgently delivered to Zhu Lin, even if it arrived at night, let Zhu Lin know as soon as possible. Zhu Lin handed the small bamboo tube to Zhao Mingdao and said, "Send it urgently." ”

Zhao Mingdao didn't dare to delay, took the small bamboo tube, and hurriedly sent it.

looked at Zhao Mingdao's departing figure. Zhu Lin sighed. He said silently in his heart: "Big brother, I can only help you get here." If it is arranged by you and Yuan Conghuan, I really can't bear it. Powerful military spending will bring me down. ”

Here Zhu Lin was sighing. Over there, Yuan Conghuan was discussing with Zhu Zheng about the batch of adaptations, "Virtuous nephew, will the third son of Lin agree with our opinions?"

Zhu Zheng thought for a while and said, "Uncle, I think I should agree, at least let the militia stay here for another year." Even if you rotate, you have to keep it. Now there is a lot of movement on the other side of the river. I don't know when a big war will break out! Now we will transfer the militia back. If there is a war, we will face a situation where we will have no troops available. And the place where the militia is stationed is important. If the Nu tribe wants to storm Jicheng, they must destroy the militia camp. I really don't feel at ease when I let someone else guard the camp. My second brother won't go to Lingshanwei to take office. I arranged for someone else to go. I have to ask my uncle to take care of this matter. gave a thousand taels of silver to the prison guards, and the prison guards didn't say anything. ”

"I'm not worried about this, I'm worried that we will put those 3,000 people in the Jecheng garrison barracks, but we will take the salary of the militia. This Lin Sanzi probably won't agree. There will be opinions. ”

"Uncle, don't worry about this, I think my brother's priorities are still clear. Wait for the imperial court to transport the military salary, and then compensate. Uncle, it's time for you to rush. I haven't seen a grain or a tael of silver for two months. If we continue like this, we have the support of the militia here, but we are not afraid. The key is that the garrisons in other places, without food and wages, will have a big incident. Do you want to reproduce the time when the 'Northern Capital Change' was in place? You must know that we are now fighting against the slave people, not those rogues. And what happened last time, how did the court deal with it, and give me a word! Can't let people bully their heads, let's not let a fart go. Why hasn't there been a letter from me until now? Could it be that you just watch that Wen Jun get away with it?"

As soon as this was mentioned, the gray-haired Yuan Conghuan was speechless. How to put it into words. The military information he handed out should have reached the emperor, but there has been no reply so far. The food used by the Jicheng garrison camp was provided by the militia group. It has made the militia angry now. Originally, Zhu Lin prepared according to the food expenses of 8,000 people, and before joining these 3,000 people, the daily food was quite good. But after joining these 3,000 people, it is still the food cost of 5,000 people. This food level has dropped a lot. Shen Mo has looked for himself a few times. You can't eat or drink us, but people don't belong to us. Yuan Conghuan was upset when he heard this. More than a million taels of silver have not been repaid, but now they are constantly increasing their debts. The commander-in-chief stationed in several nearby cities has also written to inquire about military salaries many times. Make your own head big. Sometimes, I really want to pick a son and quit. Whoever likes to do it, do it! However, now he has the official post of governor of the two provinces, and it is not that he will not do it if he does not do it. Even if you don't do it, you have to put this rotten pick on the table before you don't do it. You can't leave it to the successor who comes later!

"Hasn't Zhu Lin replied yet? The matter of selling the mine to Lin Sanzi and the letter urging for food! I have written three letters of credit and sent them over in an expedited manner of 600 miles. To this day, the Governor still wonders why there has been no reply. Lin Sanzi's behavior is getting more and more unreasonable, you see the letter, you have to give a letter! Okay! Now there is no news, if it weren't for listening to the people of the militia group, we still don't know that Lin Sanzi passed the exam, or the first place. Think about the three brothers and I at that time, I didn't leave a single money or food for him, he can create such a big family business, and it is really not easy to be admitted! Could it be that the third son of Lin is too busy to reply to the letter?" Yuan Conghuan said.

"Well, it's been verified, and I won the first place in the township exam. The militia celebrated there all day. Uncle, I don't think it's that simple. No matter how busy my third brother is, there is always time to reply to letters. None of the letters we sent were answered. It would be okay to say that my third brother didn't reply. Including military intelligence or anything, there was no reply from the imperial court. Could it be that something went wrong on the road?" Zhu Zheng thought more and more wrong, and the letters sent out were like mud into the sea, and there was no news.

"No! Who would dare to stop an urgent letter for 600 miles! It is estimated that the imperial court is deliberating! Let's wait with confidence!" Yuan Conghuan said.

Zhu Zheng opened his mouth! He didn't say anything, he didn't reply to a single letter, and the instructions from the imperial court didn't arrive. Zhu Zheng felt that something was abnormal. Since the last time he fought with Wen Jun, this matter has been haunting him, could it be that Wen Jun and Wang Zhen really dare not stop the six hundred miles from hurrying? Zhu Zheng kept an eye on it. After retiring, he secretly came to the militia camp in the north of the city at night. Find Zhu Yi, hand over the letter he wrote to Zhu Yi, let the militia fleet bring it to Zhu Lin, and then ask Zhu Lin to find a way to hand it over to the military department! Zhu Yi wondered even more! How slow it is to send the letter with the fleet! He also persuaded his brother to use your 600 miles to send it over. Use the fleet to send it, and it will take half a month to go back and forth at the earliest. Zhu Yi is actually kind, not that he doesn't want to send it. is afraid that it will take too long to delay his brother's affairs. Shen Mo on the side felt it, I'm afraid that the six hundred miles and eight hundred miles rush is not too safe. That's why the eldest young master, Zhu Zheng, thought of using the fleet to deliver the letter. Just tomorrow morning there will be a sand boat back. let Zhu Yi agree. I took the sealed letter and wrote three s and three Zs on the envelope. I called a post guard, who was specially sent and received letters. Let the postman deliver to the ship as quickly as possible. As soon as the postman looked at the symbols on the letter, he understood how many times he had sent the letter back and forth. This is the first time that such a symbol has been marked on an envelope. It means that the fastest speed will be directly delivered to Zhu Lin's hands. Not daring to delay, the postman took the letter, and without even saying a word, he went to the dock.

sent Zhu Zheng away. Zhu Yi and Shen Mo sat face to face in the big tent. "It seems that that road is no longer safe! Second Young Master, let a few people wear the clothes of the imperial court messenger, pretending to send a letter to the capital in an urgent manner for six hundred miles. Let's take a look at the situation?" said Shen Mo.

Zhu Yi nodded and said, "Well, that's the only way." Otherwise, my eldest brother's temper will not borrow our channel. Our channel will deliver some official documents and letters from members of the militia and so on. It's not a big deal. Moreover, the waterway is slower, and it is safe! Not to mention that my third brother loves horses and cherishes his soldiers. There is not so much capital to do anything 800 miles to expedit. A trip of 800 miles and a rush down, horses and people can't stand it. At least two horses must be killed. When they arrived, the people were also abolished. This Shen Mo knows that Zhu Lin is a horse lover. I usually cherish my green horse, and I take care of the green horse by myself whenever I have time. Moreover, strict regulations were laid down for cavalry, and those who mistreated horses! were severely punished! Those who caused the death of horses for no reason were sent directly to labor camps! Horsemen had to be trained in Sicheng before they could take up their posts. It can be seen how much Zhu Lin cherishes horses and cherishes them. Zhu Lin can't be blamed for this, the good horse breeding base in Sicheng has not been developed. I can't buy a few horses a year! The horses are now all traded for iron. In the past, ten iron pots could be exchanged for a good war horse. Now you can't get twenty horses for one. In the past two years, the grassland has not been peaceful. The price of horses is rising. In the past, you could get a horse for one hundred and eighty taels. Now you don't have two or three hundred taels, don't even think about it. This is still the price of a horse, five hundred taels of war horses, and the children are not deceived. That's the price, do you like it or not? You said that Zhu Lin bought the horse at a high price, can you not cherish it?
