Chapter 206: The Master Mother

Wu Yong got up and looked at Zhu Long's house, this is a small courtyard house, the main house, the left and right wings, and the south wall corridor, which is very closed and safe, but it is not enough now-because Zhu Long has a family.

This is Zhu Long's residence and office space, and his subordinates often come to him to report and ask for instructions. used to be big old men, straight to the point, there was nothing to avoid.

It's not convenient anymore.

For example, now that Wu is used, Lin Chuman avoids it and hides in the wing, for a long time, it will definitely not work.

"Lord, you are different from the past, the soldiers come and go, it is very inconvenient, it is better to rebuild a three-entry mansion......"

Zhu Long interrupted: "No! ”

As there were more and more generals in the Zhu family's army, the houses were not enough, and the later generals had no houses to distribute.

Zhujia was originally a small military fortress, with a length and a half miles and a half, and about a thousand acres.

In the past, the father and son of the Zhu family, plus stewards, servants, and villagers, were only 2,000 people, which was very spacious, and even many places were used to grow food.

At that time, there were a lot of houses in Zhujiazhuang, and everyone lived very spacious, and there were more than a dozen idle.

But now there are sixty-nine generals, guards, green dragons, white tigers, and garrison battalions, with nearly 10,000 troops, plus the stewards and servants of the Zhu family, and the families of the generals, and there are 12,000 people living in Zhujiazhuang.

It can be fitted, but the house is not enough to live in.

Therefore, Zhujiazhuang has been building houses, although there are many free strong laborers in the prisoner camp, but building houses is a technical job, and the prisoners can only burn bricks, tiles, cut trees, carry, dig foundations, and add soil...... Doing these menial jobs is tiring, and the key technical work has to rely on masons.

Until now, the houses have not been completely built, like Bian Xiang and Bao Xu, they can only live in the barracks, and the single generals live in the same courtyard.

Some time ago, as soon as the Li family moved out, the house was vacated to the Zeng family father and son. Shan Tinggui and Wei Dingguo are both people who drag their families, and they can't be crowded in the barracks, so the newly built houses are assigned to them first

In this case, how could Zhu Long let his subordinates continue to wait and build their own houses first? Although it is just a trivial matter, Liu Dada said: Don't take the evil as a small thing.

He thought for a while and said, "Let someone renovate my house, open the middle of the two small houses in the south, paint it, and then open a door to the outside as my office room, and the original small door is also kept, so that it is not only separated from the inside and outside, but also convenient for me to enter!" ”

Wu Yong stood up and said, "The lord is wise! Just wronged the princess! ”

Zhu Long waved his hand and said with a smile: "I am a person who suffers so much, I only hope that one day I can be as Du Gong said: Thousands of rooms in Guangxia and shelter the cold people in the world." ”

Wu Yong said movingly: "The lord has this heart, and I will wait for the blessings of the children of the poor families in the world!" The subordinate took his leave and went to arrange the matter. ”

"Wait!" Zhu Long shouted, looked at Wu Yong, and said slowly: "The military division has to be in charge of both military aircraft and internal affairs, and the dark guard battalion also wants you to be distracted, and the military division has lost weight!" ”

Wu Yong hurriedly said: "Worrying about the Lord is a blessing for his subordinates!" ”

"When I was in Jeju with the Lin family, we invited a matchmaker, came to the door to propose, and got her brother's consent and blessing, and we have already worshiped heaven and earth. Therefore, the Lin family is already the wife of my Ming media, since she is my wife, she should take on the responsibility of the main mother and manage the inner courtyard of the Zhu family. ”

Wu Yong understood what Zhu Long meant, and said, "My subordinates understand!" ”

"You hand over with a few housekeepers, and then let them come to our hospital."

"Yes! The subordinates retired first! ”

Wu Yong's expression was like this, and he didn't take it to heart at all, because this was a reasonable thing, he was the military advisor of the Zhujia army, not the housekeeper of the Zhujiazhuang.

In terms of reasonableness, Lin Chuman is the main mother, which is her duty and power.

Wu Yong acted vigorously and resolutely in the affairs of the lord, said goodbye and left, and found the steward in charge of the mason to send someone to renovate Zhulong's house.

After Wu Yong left, Zhu Long looked at the planning map of Zhujiazhuang, one horizontal and one vertical two roads in the village, which will turn Zhujiazhuang into a "Tian" word, east and west are equal, the ratio of north and south is six to four, the south is large, and the north is small. A small piece in the northwest is the ancestral house of the Zhu family, there are many houses, the old lady Zhu lives here, there are high walls and green tiles around, giving people a deep feeling of the courtyard.

After the southwest, it was the residence of generals and their families, but it is still a large construction site, because of the heavy snow, the work has been stopped, and only a dozen old houses are in the wind and snow.

The northeast is a variety of warehouses, silver warehouses, granaries, and armament warehouses, which are heavily guarded and surrounded by high walls; The Synagogue and Banquet Hall are also in this area, with the Banquet Hall to the west and the Synagogue to the south.

To the southeast is the barracks, just across the road from the council hall, a large area, near the foot of the city wall is a row of barracks, near the central axis of the road is a school field.

The Guards, the Blue Dragon Army, the White Tiger Army, and the garrison battalion were all stationed here, while the Vermilion Bird Army and the Xuanwu Army were stationed in the two large camps in front of the mountain and behind the mountain.

Zhu Long looked at the map, this was a plan he had made with his own hands before, and it also took into account the future development.

He stared at the map for a long time, and suddenly drew two circles on the map, just in front of the camp in front of the mountain, one on the left and one on the right, forming an isosceles triangle with the camp in front of the mountain.

On the map, this is a low hill, which is convenient for the cavalry to hide and gallop.

If the imperial army attacked Zhujiazhuang, he could hide the two armies of Qinglong and Baihu here, one left and one right, and launch a fierce attack from behind the official army.

Of course, the officers and soldiers are not stupid, they will definitely search comprehensively, and how to hide is the key.

The army of the Song Dynasty was all professional soldiers, unlike the government soldiers of previous dynasties, who needed to cultivate the land in the spring, and the war could not delay the agricultural time.

But the army of the Great Song Dynasty did not need it, and it could also come out to cut people in the spring.

Therefore, Zhu Long concluded that in the spring of next year, the Song army will definitely attack, and they will suffer two losses, and it will definitely not be the previous small fight, it must be a gathering of troops, with the momentum of Mount Tai, in a vain attempt to eradicate Zhujiazhuang in one fell swoop.

Zhu Long can only survive this wave and have a future and future.

He stared at the map, silent, as if an old monk had settled down.

Suddenly, there was a sound of footsteps, and Zhu Hu rushed over, and as soon as he entered the house, he asked, "Big brother, what's the matter with me?" ”

Zhu Long just finished writing a letter, put down the brush, rested it on the inkstone, and then looked up and said: "There is a good man in Shouzhang County, you can send someone to invite us to strengthen our strength!" ”

"Oh, who is it?" Zhu Hu's eyes widened and he was eager to try.

"This person's surname is Ren, his name is Hara, he is a sumo wrestling master, and he has not met an opponent in the Dongyue Temple in Tai'an Prefecture for several years! He claims to be 'there is no rival in the sumo wrestling world, and I am the best in the wrestling world'. I saw this person in Shouzhang County a few days ago, and he was indeed majestic. This is my letter of invitation, and you should send some well-spoken stewards to him and invite him to come. In addition, I prepare 100 gold as a gift! ”

Zhu Hu sneered, "The tone is not small, the cowhide is blowing into the sky!" I'm going to try it, how many pounds and taels does he have! ”

"There are mountains outside the mountains, and there are people outside the people, since this person has not met an opponent for several years, it can be seen that he has real skills! You don't want to come nonsense, mislead me for a big thing! Zhu Long knew his brother's mixed temper and sternly admonished him.

"But there's no need to be so polite, is there?" Zhu Hu was not convinced.

Zhu Long Zhengse said: "Second brother, the good generals and warriors and Confucian scholars are competing to serve the Song court for the sake of high-ranking officials and glory, so why should we fight with the Song court?" Only Corporal Lixian, who attracts those reckless heroes who are depressed and despondent, and gathers the talents left behind in the wilderness, can compete with the Song Dynasty!

You have to remember, what is the most important thing to compete for the world? Talent! How to make talents willing to use us? Not only should we give them a place to display their talents, but also respect them!

Hurry up and prepare! ”

Zhu Hu muttered: "Why do you want me to do it, can't I let Wu do it?" ”

Zhu Long patted him on the shoulder, shook his head and smiled, and said, "This subjugation talent is like marrying a mother-in-law, you must do it yourself, not others!" ”

Zhu Hu stared at Zhu Long, "Big brother, to be honest, did you hook up with your sister-in-law a long time ago?" ”

"Nonsense!" Zhu Long got serious, "How am I that kind of person, this time I went to Jeju on a business trip, and I met ...... by accident"

"Less! is so hypocritical in front of your own brothers, are you tired! Zhu Hu pouted disdainfully.

Zhu Long coughed twice in embarrassment, and said with a dry smile: "Isn't this afraid that you will learn badly!" ”

Zhu Hu sneered twice, "Afraid that I will learn badly? If you hadn't been in the way, my son would have been able to get me a drink!" ”

"Sorry, sorry! Delay your youth! ”

Zhu Hu was still about to speak, but he was driven out by Zhu Long, and if he didn't drive away, he didn't know what his dog would spit out of his mouth.

After driving his brother away, Zhu Long wanted to go into the wing room to find Lin Chuman, but then someone came again.

Lu Zhishen strode in, bowed to Zhulong, and said in a rough voice: "Lord, there is a brother in the Sprinkle family, surnamed Shi Mingjin, known as the Nine Pattern Dragon, and he is a good man. ”

"That's great!" Zhu Long is very happy, Lu Zhishen wants to pull a few people from Shaohuashan into the gang, how can he have an opinion?

The four leaders of Shaohua Mountain, although Chen Da, the jumping tiger and Yang Chun, the white flower snake, have no skills, but Shi Jin, the nine-pattern dragon, and Zhu Wu, the master of the divine machine, are all talents, especially Zhu Wu.

At present, there is only one strategist in Zhujiazhuang, Wu Yong, and Wu Yong always likes intrigue and trickery, and does not compromise means, although the effect is very good, but the pattern and vision are too small, it is difficult to achieve great things, and it can be used in the rivers and lakes, and it is easy to be disliked in the court.

After being happy, Zhu Long frowned slightly, and said: "It's a harsh winter, the snow is closing the road, the road is difficult, and now it's the month of Layue, and the New Year is approaching, why don't you wait for the time being, how about going next year?" ”

Lu Zhishen clasped his palms together and said: "The Sprinkle family has long wanted to pick up my brother, but it has been fighting, and the Sprinkle family is not easy to bring up, and it has been pressed in my heart. ”

Zhu Long felt funny and said, "Wudu Tou is not here, you go alone, how can I rest assured!" Well, I'll go with you! ”

"How's that?" Lu Zhishen hurriedly shook his head and said, "The lord is the lord of the Zhu family's army, how can he easily take risks?" The coach is transpositioned, the three armies are uneasy, the boss is fixed, and the three armies are stable! Zhu Jiajun needs the lord to be in charge! ”

Zhu Long smiled: "What the master said is reasonable! But there is no war at the moment, each army has its own commander, each in his own position, each in his own duties, it doesn't matter whether I am there or not. Master prepare, I'll set off with you tomorrow! ”

Lu Zhishen couldn't resist Zhu Long, so he had to agree.

Zhu Long shouted to the guards at the door: "Come on, let Hu Gang come to see me immediately, and then invite Wu Yong, Zhu Hu, Guan Sheng, Lin Chong, Luan Tingyu, Qin Ming, Hu Yanzhuo, Yang Zhi, Xu Ning, Wen Da, Zeng Rong, Chen Shou, Lu Fang, Bian Xiang, and Shi Wengong to the meeting hall,"

Soon, Hu Gang came, walked through the courtyard, came to the main house, bowed down and bowed: "Lord, call a certain person to come, what are your orders?" ”

Zhu Long's face was expressionless, and he said in an irresistible tone: "You go to Lijiazhuang quickly and ask a maid named Zhiyun'er to come over!" ”

Zhi Yun'er was Lin Chuman's former maid, as close as her little sister, and Zhu Long asked her to come just to accompany Lin Chuman.

There is only one maid in Zhu Long's courtyard, Zhiyue, because Zhu Long is very arrogant and has not strictly disciplined her, Lin Chuman is not easy to use, and he is not as close as Zhiyun'er.

He came to the west wing, Lin Chuman was embroidering, Zhiyue was embroidering on the side, seeing Zhu Long come in, Zhiyue got up and stood aside, Lin Chuman stood up and looked at Zhu Long with a smile.

Zhu Long had a dry throat and didn't know how to speak, he only took her home yesterday, and he was going to travel far tomorrow, he felt sorry for Lin Chuman.

Lin Chuman also saw that he had something on his mind, and asked with concern, "What's wrong with Da Lang?" ”

"I'm going to go on a long trip, and I may not be back until a year."

Zhu Long thought about it and called all the servants in the courtyard again.

Three servants stood in a row under the eaves, a cook, a washwoman, and an old man sweeping the floor, all bowing their heads, bending over, and bowing their eyebrows at the foot of the steps before the eaves, waiting for their master's lecture.

In the past, they were very comfortable, just do their own thing, Zhu Long never cared about them, as long as he didn't miss his business.

But they knew that the good days were coming to an end - because there was an extra mistress in the house.

The male protagonist is outside, and the female protagonist is inside. With a hostess, they have a mountain over their heads.

In fact, these unobtrusive slaves can often learn a lot of information, for example, they have known about the special relationship between their master and Lin Chuman for a long time, so when Zhu Long personally picked up Lin Chu Man from Jeju, many people were surprised by this, and these slaves felt that this was expected, but they didn't expect Zhu Long to marry her, not just a whim plaything.

Zhu Long said: "In the future, Mrs. will be your master, you must obey Madame's orders, if I come back, I will hear Madame"
