Qu Shangqun went to see Li Boyu again, but this time he was much more confident.
"Shang Qun, so you have been promoted, congratulations!"
Qu Shangqun's face was sweating, and he hurriedly knelt down.
"If there is no cultivation by the head of the family and the Li family, I Qu Shangqun still don't know which corner to farm! Don't dare to have two hearts. β
"Alright, get up! Jianyue is also a member of my Li family, I doubt what you do? However, Wu Zhong is not small, he actually dares to disobey Jianyue in public, is he impatient? I have to make a statement to Jianyue. Shang Qun, I don't want to see this person in the future, you can do this. You have done a good job in Ruzhou this time, I will arrange someone to handle the matter of your eldest son Yin Tong Jinshi, you have to follow Jianyue to do things well, and manage the Second Army well, you have the ability, don't embarrass the Li family. β
Qu Shangqun was overjoyed, and he couldn't help but say what he thought in his heart again.
"The head of the family, after a few days of contact with my uncle, I feel that the uncle chosen by the Li family is indeed eloquent and very remarkable. I have an idea that I don't know whether to say or not. β
Li Boyu scolded with a smile: "Who is the uncle I chose, and I still need you to talk about it?" What's the fart, hurry up! β
Qu Shangqun said excitedly: "My uncle's division of Tangzhou Suizhou as Weiyuan Town has a deep meaning, and there is an attempt to expand to the east and south. The head of the family knows me, and I am not afraid of land battles, but what I am really strong is water battles. If I want to realize my uncle's plan, it is not possible to do without a strong navy, I want to continue to expand the military strength of the Second Army, and at the same time organize and train the navy, as long as the situation is ripe, I can enter the Huainan West Road, and I can cooperate with my uncle's army to attack the Jingbei Road when the rear road is guarded. The head of the family, at that time, our Longjie army will have the capital to compete for the world. β
Li Boyu laughed loudly: "You are just the commander of the Second Army, but your tone is not small, and you still fight for the world?" But even if you still have some ability and vision, even if you don't say it, I will arrange for you to do these things. It's just that there are still some obstacles, you can't let Jianyue be too eye-catching, you do it secretly first, and I will arrange someone to provide the material and financial resources. β
After speaking, Li Boyu thought of some people in the Jianning Imperial Court, and sneered and said: "Once Jianyue reaches a certain point, it is indeed necessary for a strong naval army to give a warning to certain people. β
Hao Tianfeng looked at the mansion in front of him with a long history and extraordinary momentum, and sighed a little, the wealthy families that have existed for more than a hundred years are indeed a little different, brick by brick, grass and tree, all seem to reveal a trace of charm.
However, Hao Tianfeng came on behalf of Lin Jianyue's parents who were under the command of the Longjie Army and the Three Towns Festival, and he had commanded tens of thousands of troops for many years, so he would not take these too seriously, and being able to come here in person was already a great face-saving for the Li family.
Discussing relatives and returning to relatives, what should be fought for, what should be said, that cannot be ambiguous.
Li Boyu personally went out of the gate to welcome Hao Tianfeng's arrival.
In fact, Li Boyu can put on a shelf.
First of all, he is much older than Hao Tianfeng, and he used to be a much higher status, and he is still the head of a big family, so he can send a brother-in-law with status to greet him.
But this time is different from the past, the 6th and 7th armies under the command of Hao Tianfeng cannot be said to be the strongest, but it can be said that Lin Jianyue is the most descendant of the troops, and the place where they are stationed is close to Tangzhou, whether it is for the Li family or for Lin Jianyue, the Li family must give enough respect and courtesy. More importantly, Hao Tianfeng represents Lin Jianyue, and respecting Hao Tianfeng is to value Lin Jianyue, and to highlight Lin Jianyue's unusual status.
Li Boyu is also very satisfied with Lin Jianyue.
When Lin Jianyue informed the armies to go to Ruzhou, Li Boyu was not without worry, and even prepared for Lin Jianyue to abandon the Li family and go it alone at the instigation of people with ulterior motives, after all, Tie Qingfeng's behavior buried too much hidden danger for the Li family.
Li Boyu just firmly believed that Lin Jianyue's personality and mind did not make any unnecessary moves, and he did not say hello to people such as Qu Shangqun, Liu Yingxu, Wu Zhong, and Li Zhinan, and he also wanted to test Lin Jianyue for the last time whether he was the person he imagined.
The result was better than expected, Lin Jianyue still believed in and relied on the Li family, Wu Zhong didn't have to say that he was looking for death, he took the initiative to send someone to discuss his relatives before he hinted at it, and he still sent the person closest to the believer rather than the inexplicable Liu Changshi.
The two old ghosts greet each other, touting things like lifting a sedan chair, naturally there is nothing to say, the procedure, etiquette, gifts, and bride price exchange of eight characters or something, and a large number of people below go to handle it, let alone what they care about, and they go straight to the point without drinking a cup of tea.
"The master of the in-laws used to be the prime minister in the court, and he was a protΓ©gΓ© of the Manchu Dynasty, with extraordinary power, and his knowledge was much stronger than that of us military elders. Jianyue's change of military system and political system may bring many troubles and obstacles, I wonder what countermeasures the in-laws can have? β
Li Boyu smiled slightly and said: "The current Daning court is not the court of 200 years ago, the princes of the court are afraid of Hu Ruhu, and they just want those of us who are outside to shelter them from the wind and rain, so that they can enjoy glory and wealth in their comfort nest." As long as they don't disturb them, the people outside can make any requests, not to mention that the Long Jie army is in charge of the three towns and festivals, that is, the court feudal Yue is the king, and I will arrange people to do some activities, it's not impossible, but it's not necessary. β
Although he teased the imperial court, Li Boyu's words were also full of confidence and domineering, obviously what Hao Tianfeng said was not a big deal.
"Then I'm relieved. However, there is one more thing, the Hanhu War has suffered heavy casualties on our side, and there are many pacification and pension affairs, Jianyue has just taken the throne, and his hands are very nervous. The in-laws know that Jianyue is still young, and he doesn't know many people, and he treats the Li family as his own, and treats the in-laws much closer to him than to me. There are really not many people under Jianyue who can use it, I don't know if the master of the in-laws can make arrangements for the people and things that are urgently needed? β
This is the most important thing Hao Tianfeng wants to say.
Li Boyu's face became cautious, he had already made arrangements, but it was impossible for him to give this face to Hao Tianfeng, he could only give it to Lin Jianyue.
Li Boyu just said: "The ability of the Li family is really limited, and it is definitely necessary to help, but it may not be able to completely solve the problem." By the way, Marshal Lin Jian'an of the Han Mansion is Jianyue's eldest brother, can he also provide some support? β
The meaning of temptation is self-evident, and everyone knows that Hao Tianfeng's Zhongzi Battalion nominally belongs to the Han Mansion.
Hao Tianfeng was not embarrassed, let alone hesitated, and said directly: "The reason why Jianyue left Qingfeng Mountain is that there are people in the Han Mansion who want to squeeze out and assassinate Jianyue, but I don't know if I am far away, otherwise some people must be good-looking." Not to mention going to the Han Mansion for support, even if you take the initiative to send it, Jianyue and I don't have to. β
Hao Tianfeng must clarify the relationship, Lin Jianyue is Lin Jianyue, not a subordinate of anyone.
Li Boyu smiled and said: "General Hao doesn't have to care, I just ask casually, I know what is going on in Jianyue." But rest assured, although the Li family is not talented, they can still help Jianyue temporarily tide over the difficulties when they exhaust their family wealth, and I will tell him well when Jianyue comes to Tangzhou to get married. β
Hao Tianfeng stopped when he heard the last sentence: "My lord, Jianyue can now be regarded as a prince, and it seems that it is a little inappropriate to come to Tangzhou to get married." Although Long Jiejun is poor, it is more than enough to do family affairs for Jianyue. Nanyang Mansion is the core of Jingnan Road, and it is a famous Xiongcheng in the world, and we have already prepared for Jianyue's Shuai Mansion in Nanyang. β
Li Boyu did not show weakness: "General Hao's words are not right, is Tangzhou not under the jurisdiction of Jianyue?" What's more, Tangzhou is closer to the imperial court, and the roads are even more convenient. I also want to call some relatives and friends in the court to come to congratulate, so as to expand Jianyue's network, if how many people dare to go in Nanyang? But I'm not a big problem in Tangzhou. Is Jianyue's future important or the place where he got married? I don't think we need to discuss this! β
Just now, I was in contact with you and I, but now the two of them quarreled over a trivial matter, of course, it is not a trivial matter in a symbolic sense.
