Chapter 331: Turning the Tiger Away from the Mountain

In the original history, Shi Kunyu, the prefect of Suzhou, was famous for cracking down on Haoqiang, and caught the handle of the Shen family breaking the law in Suzhou.

At that time, in the eyes of others, Governor Li Lai and Shen Shoufu had a good relationship, and Shoufu Shen Shixing really wanted Li Lai to settle things.

According to the normal routine, Governor Li Lai's methods are nothing more than the following two methods.

or negotiate with the prefect Shi Kunyu for an exchange of interests; or use his power to force the prefect Shi to help the Shen family get away with it.

As a result, Li Lai's actions made later generations unbelievable, and he actually framed Shi Zhifu out of thin air very nonsensically, and directly accused Shi Zhifu of embezzling 5,000 taels of silver from the county treasury of Wu County.

Of course, it was impossible for Shi Zhifu to admit it, and then Governor Li and Shi Zhifu exchanged passions, and the contradiction escalated significantly. All of a sudden, the matter was completely made bigger, to the point of causing a sensation in the government and the opposition.

The imperial court sent people to Suzhou to investigate, and the conclusion was that the Shi Governor's Mansion was innocent and there was no corruption at all.

Because Shi Kunyu had created a good reputation before, Li Lai's behavior of "staining people's innocence" immediately aroused huge public outrage.

What follows is the common drama, a clear gossip official frantically besieging the governor Li Lai and the suspected behind-the-scenes mastermind Shen Shoufu.

Li Lai couldn't bear the pressure and resigned, and Shen Shoufu was too tired to do it, so he resigned with Li Lai.

Whenever he thinks of this historical case, Lin Daguan feels that Governor Li Lai's performance is like an undercover agent, a suicide bomb ambushed by hostile forces on Shen Shoufu's side.

Otherwise, Li Lai's motives for those actions would not make sense at all.

So as soon as they saw that the new prefect was called Shi Kunyu and the new governor was called Li Lai, Lin Daguan immediately understood that the conspiracy was coming, and it came three years in advance.

From God's point of view, Lin Daguan can of course see that the main target of others who have gone through such a lot of trouble is definitely not himself, but Shen Shoufu.

Because at the cost of taking out a top-level governor and a top-level prefect, just to kill a Lin Tailai, it is obviously not cost-effective.

After all, in the eyes of high-level politicians, he Lin Tailai is just a henchman of Shen Shoufu.

So let's let Shen Erye swagger through the market, continue to demolish and build, continue to merge land, and stand in the front row to sell a flaw to attract enemy firepower!

The enemy starts with Shen Erye, so that Shen Shoufu can be directly involved!

This is the confidence of Lin Daguan to dare to leave Suzhou temporarily and go to Yangzhou.

Anyway, I already know the general routine of the other party, and when something happens, Lin Daguan will go back to Suzhou to clean up the mess.

At the same time, Lin Daguan also has the intention to train the organization's resistance to pressure, to see if the community can withstand a certain amount of pressure when he is not in Suzhou.

If just because he is not in Suzhou, the club can collapse if it encounters a little pressure, then the operation of the past two years will be in vain, and it is better to dissolve as soon as possible!

This time he went to Yangzhou City, Lin Daguan brought 100 "Jiading" and hundreds of Suzhou Weicao troops, as well as the first batch of grain transported to Yangzhou Shuicicang by Suzhou Prefecture this year, totaling 50,000 stones.

There are also a few special people, who also brought their own ships and funds, and followed Lin Daguan to Yangzhou City, that is, the representatives of the Suzhou calligraphy and painting industry, including the number one trader and broker in the Suzhou calligraphy and painting market, Zhang Fengyi, the number one counterfeiter Lu Shicheng and others.

Breaking away from the busy environment of Suzhou City, Lin Daguan was in a good mood, sitting leisurely in the cabin, humming a little song and watching the spring light on both sides of the strait.

The right protector Zhang Wu was idle and bored, so he said to Lin Daguan: "It's not the first time to sit in the hall with Yangzhou, why are you so happy?" ”

Lin Daguan replied: "When I went to Yangzhou before, I always had too many worries, so I was constrained and couldn't enjoy myself.

And this time I can finally let go of my hands and feet, do whatever I want, how can you not make me happy? ”

Zhang Wu was suddenly shocked: "I can't sit in the hall!" Isn't it too early to capture the county seat now? ”

Lin Daguan said angrily: "Which dog of yours saw that I wanted to capture the county seat of Fuxian County? ”

Zhang Wu replied: "The first time I went to Yangzhou, there was a mutiny in the Cao army to threaten the governor;

The last time I was in Yangzhou, there was a mutiny, and I successively arrested the governor, the patrol, and the soldiers.

So what does it look like to let go of your hands and feet? I really can't imagine anything other than the capture of the prefecture. ”

"Get out! I'm talking about the women's side! Lin Daguan reprimanded angrily.

Lin Daguan means that this time there is no need to take into account the emotions of pregnant women, and many things can be done as much as you want.

Zhang Wu went to the deck to blow the wind, but there was still the left protector Zhang Wen in the cabin, and said to Lin Daguan:

"I heard the news that the gambling houses in Yangzhou have opened odds, and when the gambling hall returns to Yangzhou, will there be another mutiny or mutiny."

Zhang Wen also reminded Lin in disguise that the mutiny was like a "wolf". It's okay to do it once or twice, if you use this method every time, I'm afraid it won't work.

The key is to engage in mutiny again and again, and the court can't say it.

Lin Daguan can't help it, he has no power base in Yangzhou City, and he has no public opinion base, what can he rely on if he doesn't rely on the Cao army?

In the Yangzhou City Salt Inspection Institute, Cai Shiding, the imperial historian of the salt patrol, put down the letter and fell into deep thought.

There are two "instructions" in the letter, one is to find a way to lure Lin Tailai to Yangzhou; The second is to find a way to let Lin Tailai stay in Yangzhou for at least a month.

This meaning is obvious, it is a plan to divert the tiger from the mountain and minimize Lin Tailai's interference in Suzhou's affairs.

So Cai Yushi was able to judge that his colleagues were going to start "doing things" in Suzhou City, and he was happy to see it.

At the beginning of the Gao Qiyu case, he Cai spoke up and said a few fair words for the official.

If it weren't for the treacherous Prime Minister Shen Shoufu to clamp down on the way, he Cai would not have left the political center and was transferred to patrol the salt imperial history!

For the sake of the Ming Dynasty, it is necessary to let the traitors who deceive the Holy Hearing step down!

And the task he can do at present is to find a way to keep Lin Tailai in Yangzhou City according to the unified deployment and reduce the obstacles on the side of Suzhou City.

Cai Yushi thought for a while, but he didn't have any ideas, so he called several cronies and his master over to discuss together.

Cai Yushi, the elder follower Cai Shiquan brought from his hometown, said: "Can you expose the smuggling of Wu Deng, the second treasurer of the Lin Salt Industry?"

Once Lin's salt industry encounters a crisis, Lin Tailai will definitely come forward to settle it and drag him along. ”

Wu Deng's large-scale smuggling was actually secretly supported by Cai Shiquan on his orders, in order to plant mines within the Lin salt industry and detonate them at the right time.

Don't think that Lin Tai came to Yangzhou City to stir up the wind and rain a few times, and it seems that the salt patrol imperial history that has no performance is just an ornament!

In Yangzhou City, a thriving city around the salt industry, the salt patrol is the real master!

Knowing that you, Lin Tailai, are Shen Shoufu's henchmen, can Cai Yushi still do nothing?

The key is that Wu Tian, the wife of Wu Deng's family, is really beautiful, which makes Cai Changsui, who works directly, fascinated, and only when Wu Deng has an accident can he have a chance to get involved with Wu Tian.

So hearing the master's question, Cai Changsui couldn't wait to propose to detonate Wu Deng's thunder.

However, Mr. Qian, the master, objected, saying: "Once the Wu Deng smuggling case is exposed, there will be no room for maneuver, and we can only solve it quickly."

This is inconsistent with Dong Weng's intentions, but it may startle the snake, or scare Lin Tailai back to Suzhou. ”

Another master also said: "Based on the current situation, it is impossible to reasonably arrest Lin Tailai." After all, nominally, Lin Tailai is not directly related to smuggling, and Lin Tailai also has the status of a military attache as protection.

What's more, the salt of Lin's salt industry is rented, which is equivalent to buying and selling without capital. So even if all the fines are confiscated, Lin Tailai can't be hurt. ”

Cai Chang said dissatisfiedly: "Then what can you do to keep Lin Tailai in Yangzhou for a long time?" ”

Master Qian was too lazy to be angry with a rough person like Changsui, and said directly to the owner Cai Yushi:

"I have carefully studied Lin Tailai's personality, and this person also has many flaws, such as extreme fame and reputation, and he is very lustful. I heard that when I was in the capital, in order to get close to Hongling, I had a big fight with my fiancΓ©e.

As for fame and reputation, there are two people who can especially provoke Lin Tailai. As long as the two of them are invited to Yangzhou, Lin Tailai will definitely come uninvited, and he will be entangled to the end. ”

Cai Yushi asked curiously, "Who are they?" ”

Master Qian replied: "One is Wang Shizhen, the leader of the Heavenly Altar Alliance, and the other is Gu Xiancheng, a true Confucian and academic master!"

As long as these two people appear in public and are within the distance, Lin Tailai will definitely follow. ”

Cai Yushi thought about it for a while, and then said: "Forget Gu Jingyang, it's far away in Beijing, it's not easy to invite you over." ”

Gu Xiancheng is also the backbone of their Qingliu and a think tank, and he is a gold-lettered signboard erected in the south of the Yangtze River, so don't pit your own people.

Master Qian hurriedly answered: "I also think that the leader of the Wang Lao Alliance is more suitable, there are three reasons. First, the leader of the Wang Lao League has lived in Taicang Prefecture for the past year, and it is only separated from Yangzhou by a river.

Second, in terms of timing, since the literary conference ended inconclusively two years ago, there has been no more literary conference.

Now that two years have passed, it is time for the literary world to hold a conference, otherwise the momentum of the retro school will be gone.

Third, I heard that in the past year, the leader of the Wang Lao League has been immersed in writing and has not appeared in public.

If this continues, how can Wang Yizhou still be the leader of the literary world? He's definitely going to need an appearance too, unless he gives up his retro hegemony. ”

Cai Yushi no longer hesitated, and said: "It is the best time for spring flowers to bloom, so please invite Wang Lao League to Yangzhou and hold a literary conference!"

Tell Wang Lao Alliance Leader again that this institute is willing to escort the literary conference and help raise all the funds! ”

Master Qian hurriedly patted his horse and said, "With these two guarantees of Dong Weng, why worry that the old alliance leader of the king will not come!" ”

Speaking of raising funds, it is necessary to find salt merchants in Yangzhou City, and Cai Yushi asked again: "Who should come forward to raise funds?" ”

Master Qian said: "Among the salt merchants, Wang Qing, a Hui person, has the best reputation recently, and he can be in charge." ”

Everyone understands this truth, and you must find a reputable person in charge of fundraising, otherwise how can others be convinced and donate.

Cai Yushi had no objection, and instructed Master Qian: "You go and talk to Wang Qing, first raise three thousand taels for the literary conference for backup!"

At the same time, the catalogue of garden attractions will be sorted out and waiting for the literary conference to choose to use. ”

The train of thought is finally determined, this is yesterday, continue today!
