Chapter 205: Fighting Evil with Evil

A month after arriving at the border pass, the Lin brothers are about to leave the Blood Rain Pass, and there is only less than a month left before they officially take office on the first day of the first month of August, and they also need to make some preparations.

The eldest brother set up a banquet to see him off, and all eighty-one people from the old department of the Lin family were listed, a wine, and his spirit was high.

Commander Ding Ye also set up a banquet to see him off, the two brothers were dressed in official uniforms, it was a little depressed, Ding Ye was quite enthusiastic at the banquet, and he was worried about the past month.

I heard that Zhang Wenyuan was severely reprimanded by His Majesty, and the words used have never been seen in the entire officialdom, Zhang Wenyuan was discouraged, and he didn't see anyone for ten days.

The Ministry of War is also checking whether there is a similar situation in the garrisons in various places, and the situation is good, and the other prison troops in the whole world are good, and the only bad rat is Liu Dan. The unjustly killed ghost Liu family was unanimously suppressed by the royal family and courtiers (by the way, the most fierce one was precisely Zhang Wenyuan), and he was driven out of the capital directly, and it was considered a grace of heaven to not include his daughters in the teaching department, who still has any grievances for him?

The Ministry of War did not hold Ding Ye accountable, and even sent a commendation order, using extremely elaborate words, such as caring for the general interests of the country, governing the army rigorously, and making decisions on the spot, which almost made Ding Ye a typical example of the Ministry of War......

Even if Ding Yi is a little stupid, Lin Su will remind him that you had better regard these sugar-coated shells as a harbinger of Zhang Wenyuan's attack on you, but you don't have to worry, he doesn't dare to make a move on the surface, he will only secretly find your problems, in the future, you will have to discuss with my eldest brother first, it's not that I look down on you, with your IQ, it will be just around the corner to turn into Zhang Wenyuan's pants......

This sentence completely locked Ding Ye and Lin Zheng.

Even if Ding Yi has a backbone in his back and wants to break through the Heavenly Dao Oath, he has to think about it first to see if he can play with Zhang Wenyuan, an old fox.

In the future, he must discuss with Lin Zheng to deal with it, can Lin Zheng's position be as stable as a mountain?

……

On the fourth day of the seventh month, the sky was clear, Lin Su and Lin Jialiang rose into the air, broke into the sky, and galloped all the way to the northwest.

The place they were going to was Sanping County.

The place where Lin Jialiang worked.

Lin Jialiang officially took office on the first day of August, and there are still 26 days to go, but Lin Su does not plan to step on the point to send his second brother to take office.

Sanping County is very complicated, and the former county commander was directly beheaded in the official office, which shows how dangerous this place is.

Although the second brother is a saint jinshi, the former county commander is also a jinshi.

Lin Su knew that the second brother had made great progress in the past year, but he was still a nerd by nature, so he wanted to help the second brother clean up in his own way.

Didn't that old fortune teller say it?

The Lin family is both civil and military, and he is the blank space behind the "door".

On the eldest brother's side, he has three war poems, three art of war, and a clever plan, which basically controls the basic market.

The second brother also needs to move.

Lin Jialiang already has the official seal on his body, and he can be stationed in the county government at any time, and there is no obstacle to becoming the county magistrate in advance, but the two of them don't plan to go like this, the situation is unknown, how can they rest assured?

Therefore, they did not change into official uniforms, but put on the most torn scribe's clothes, and set foot on the official road to Sanping County in the most conventional way.

They found a carriage, very old...... Oh no, horse-drawn carriages generally don't need to be "old", they should be shabby.

As soon as the Lin brothers met him, they said that their brothers were talented people in the countryside.

The old man's mentality is normal, saying that the two Xiucai masters are too modest, and if they can participate in the examination, they are not ordinary characters, as for going to the city to seek a livelihood, then I advise the two Xiucai masters not to go, where is there any livelihood in Sanping County? From here, it is Luzhou, go to the state capital, the state capital is the place where you scholars should stay.

Why? Lin Su pointed to both sides of the road, this land is fertile, there are mountains and rivers, there is a beautiful mountain behind this, and there are even a large number of fruit trees. No matter how you look at it, it should be a paradise on earth.

Fart! The old man explodes foul language......

A paradise on earth? What Promised Land? It is nothing more than the happy land of the Ding family, the fertile land on both sides of the road is the Ding family, the fertile land of the county, the Ding family occupies forty percent, and the local people have the first folk song: "Sanping County, the land is very flat, the Ding family accounts for forty percent, the Ding family, walking sideways, there are Ding family dogs everywhere......"

The Lin brothers were all shocked, and the family accounted for forty percent? In the huge Sanping County, his Ding family accounts for nearly half of the country?

Needless to say?

The old man rolled his eyes, the city was even more exaggerated, all kinds of shops in the city, nine times out of ten, they belonged to the Ding family, and there was no need to give money to buy goods from shops to shops, anyway, they were all his family's ......

This is too awesome, right? What is the origin of the Ding family?

When asked this, the old man was surprised, you still don't know the origin of the Ding family? The Ding family is the hometown of Lord Ding of Zhizhou, Sanping County, which is the county of Lord Zhizhou, and it is to help him take care of his family and business.

Lin Su and Lin Jialiang glanced at each other, and they both saw something strange in each other's eyes.

Luzhou Zhizhou Ding Jiye!

Lin Su has heard of this name, this person originally had no family background, chased up for three generations, at most he was a poor scholar, but Ding Jiye himself is very good, he has broken through the township test, the meeting test, and the palace test all the way, and deliberately made friends with the court officials, and made friends with a group of big people, what Zhang Wenyuan and Zhao Xun are all his old friends, who is the best friend? Holy today!

The saint was just King Ning back then, and Ding Jiye stayed in King Ning's Mansion for seven years as a great Confucian, do you think about what kind of affection it is?

King Ning has become His Majesty, how can he give up this love?

So, Ding Jiye was quickly promoted, and he started as a five-grade official, and he was treated the same as the champion. It took only half a year from the fifth grade to the third grade, and it only took half a year from the third grade to the second grade, four years ago, Ding Jiye was sent to Luzhou, which was the only time Ding Jiye was degraded on the way (Beijing official to local official, the grade remained the same), this depreciation, His Majesty was not careful, so he acquiesced to his enclosure in his hometown - Ding Jiye enclosure, in fact, there has been a royal history to the capital, His Majesty acquiesced.

It's a bit harder now.

Sanping County basically helped Ding Jiye take care of his family.

And Ding Jiye is obviously from the official faction.

Can Lin Jialiang honestly help him take care of his home?

Not to mention whether Lin Jialiang can do it or not, Lin Su can't hold it on his face.

But what if you don't?

As the nursery rhyme says, there are Ding dogs everywhere......

When the carriage arrived outside the gate of the county seat, the old man stopped, saying that he was registered in Shannan and had to pay a fee to enter the city, so he couldn't send the two talented masters into the city, so let's stop here.

Do you have to pay a fee to enter the city? How can there be such a rule?

The Lin brothers settled the car money, let the old man go back, and then tore the old scribe's clothes and came to the county gate, where a notice was posted: Because bandits are rampant, household registration needs to be checked when entering the city.

I'm C! Can't get into the city by the usual way?

The brothers of the Lin family observed on the side for a while, and found that someone paid the money directly and let them go, so they also painted the scoop according to the gourd, paid two cents each, and went directly into the city.

Where is this household registration check? Isn't it clear that you are looking for a reason to charge?

The city is really good, if you just come for sightseeing, the streets are smooth, business is booming on both sides, people come and go, and there are even fruits for sale, summer peaches are on the market, white peach flesh, bright red sharp mouth, at a glance it is very appetizing, Lin Su bought a few, the price is not high, the brothers one by one peach went through Sanping County.

Sanping county covers an area of not large, east and west to three miles, north and south to ten miles, the Lin brothers turned around, changed their clothes, each person a set of business clothes and then turned back, this trip will take time, the two of them will stop in the grain store, rice shop, flour shop, restaurant, cloth shop will stop, disguise as a foreign business, talk business with the boss, and a big business.

In terms of business, Lin Jialiang didn't dare to speak, and quietly watched the third brother perform there.

This performance is really flawless, when it comes to business matters, the third brother is really good at it, the purchase of goods, the shipment of things, the key points of various businesses are there, he knows everything.

Those bosses really believed it, and believed that the young people in front of them were really Dongzhou merchants and sincerely did business with them, so they told all kinds of things in Sanping County......

As the sun set, the brothers found a mid-range inn and settled down.

In the evening, after dinner, they went out again.

The next day, visit again.

On the third day, the two brothers disguised themselves as hunters, went out of the city, and went up the mountain.

On the fourth day, they disguised themselves as Sanping merchants and went from village to village......

On the fifth day, the two returned from outside the city, had a slightly more sumptuous dinner, entered the room, and closed the door......

The teacup was raised, and Lin Su said, "Second brother, what did you find during the five days of investigation?" ”

Lin Jialiang's face was extremely grim: "There are two problems in Sanping County, one is the Ding family, and the other is the thieves on Fox Mountain. ”

No! Lin Su shook his head: "There is actually only one real problem!" That is the Ding family, the thieves on Fox Hunting Mountain, and the Ding family are on the same line. ”

Lin Jialiang was shocked......

Lin Su said......

The Ding family is crazy about enclosing land and buying businesses like crazy, but there are always some people who resist, what will happen to those who resist? It was the thieves who came to the door in the middle of the night and killed their whole family!

The final result is that no one can stop the process of the Ding family's enclosure, and no one dares!

The Ziyun Lake above is a natural natural lake, and the lake has irrigated the land of the county for hundreds of thousands of years. They didn't move over, and now they dare to say that the water of Ziyun Lake is at the disposal of his Ding family, just because the Ding family paid for the repair of a broken embankment.

"The Legend of the Fairy Tree"

When the water bill was first proposed, hundreds of people in the four villages over there stopped it, and what was the final result?

In four villages, hundreds of people died at the hands of thieves in Fox Hunting Mountain overnight, leading to the emergence of four widow villages, why is it so coincidental?

Isn't it ironclad evidence that almost all the land in the four villages was sold to the Ding family at a low price, and all the people in the four villages became hired farmers by the Ding family?

Lin Jialiang frowned: "Third brother, if this is the case, it will be terrible, the thieves of Fox Hunting Mountain, that is not trivial, it is said that there are several peep-level, and even the government can't take it." ”

"In a small place, the thieves are so advanced, which is a suspicion in itself!" Lin Su said: "Let's talk about the enclosure outside, let's talk about the shops in the county......"

The same situation is true for the shops in the county, basically a routine, as long as your business is good and big, the Ding housekeeper comes to the door, talks to you, and asks you to sell at a very low price, you sell it, if you don't sell, then don't force it, three watches in the middle of the night, thieves come to the door, the next day, the ownerless shop is sold publicly, no one dares to buy, the Ding family reluctantly accepts......

Things have been going well.

Until last year, a new prefectural ordinance was inaugurated.

This new county order is also a Jinshi background, very old to get this errand, to the imperial court is infinitely grateful, as soon as he arrived, he put forward two major measures, one is to comply with the people's will to suppress bandits (the city gate set up a card to check the bandits, that is, the policy in his hands), the other is to report to the capital Zhizhou enclosure, plundering people's property.

The crackdown on bandits was carried out once, and the officers and men were defeated, and the county commanders were seriously wounded.

The letter reported by the capital did reach the Supervision Department, and the Supervision Department Lei Zheng transferred the Luzhou case to Prime Minister Lu Tiancong in line with the basic guiding ideology of "asking the prime minister on official business", and Lu Tiancong presented it to His Majesty, His Majesty sighed, this old Ding still complains that I shouldn't let him out of Beijing, I don't want to tell him, Prime Minister, you ring the bell with him, let him not go too far......

No one knows whether Lu Tian has ever rung this bell or not, anyway, Ding Jiye has completely opened the cage and released the birds.

Originally, there were three points to hide about his enclosure, but now there is no need for it at all, do you report it to the imperial court? I'm sorry, someone has already reported it, Your Majesty admits it!

Damn, this is an enclosure by order......

Although this county order did not hurt the governor and the thief a single hair, but it also became a thorn in the thief's side, in a dark and windy night, his head was cut off, you need to know, he was cut off in the government, the government is protected by the official seal, but that day, why did the official seal not start?

It has become a mystery for the ages.

The official seal was not activated, and there were only two situations, one was that Shangguan sealed the function of his official seal, and the other was that he himself was immoral, resulting in the official seal being tarnished.

Zhizhou reported to His Majesty, using the second reason, Sanping Zhixian, who had a loss of virtue and colluded with thieves, and was killed by theft due to uneven distribution of spoils.

After Lin Su finished analyzing, Lin Jialiang was stunned: "Third brother, what should I do?" ”

He had to admit that his IQ and experience were completely inadequate to handle such a complex matter.

Lin Su sighed: "I'm also very embarrassed. ”

Lin Jialiang was desperate, the third brother was embarrassed, then he basically didn't have to think that he could break the game, how many times did he think that if one day he was in charge of one party, he would definitely uphold justice for the fathers and elders of one party, and he would definitely build a paradise on earth like Haining River Beach.

Lin Su said: "I feel embarrassed because the method I think of is a bit deviating from the Holy Dao, which can be regarded as deviating from the Scriptures. ”

Lin Jialiang glared at him: "You don't come here, you haven't been away from the judgment once or twice......"

Lin Su laughed: "Then do it again?" ”

Lin Jialiang was taken aback: "What do you want to do?" ”

Lin Su said mysteriously: "Second brother, have you heard a word?" It's called not broken, not standing! ”

If it is not broken, it will not stand, and then it will be broken......

Lin Jialiang's whole body was shaken......

"The sages and sages emphasize the rule of benevolence, the rule of law, and the pursuit of goodness, but sometimes, it is still possible to cure evil with evil!" Lin Su stood up: "The next thing, just watch it, don't get involved!" ”

Lin Jialiang grabbed him: "What are you going to do?" ”

"Do a very evil thing, I will do it, don't defile your holy way......"
