Chapter 68: The Feast of Reconciliation

It was also after Yuqian and Yang Sichang decided to deal with the English who invaded the waters of the Ming Dynasty according to the "Ping Ying Strategy", and the contest between the two sides in Dinghai gradually entered a climax. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

At this time, the Ming officials were anxious to drive the Japanese to attack the English in Dinghai, and the English were eager to gain a foothold in Dinghai, and the Fuso Japanese who had been rampaging along the southeast coast, after Dinghai was occupied, especially the Musashi family was wiped out, they also began to have red eyes and were eager to counterattack Dinghai and expel the English.

Under this general trend, Li Yingyuan wholeheartedly stirred up troubled waters and concealed his identity; Major Andrew was anxious to find out the spy and investigated almost all the officers under him; and the mysterious person behind Liu Sanduo was almost lying down, involved in such right and wrong, and was bent on getting rid of those who got in the way.

The situation in Dinghai seems to be relatively stable on the surface, but under the calm performance, there is an undercurrent, and the forces of all parties are fighting openly and secretly, and a major war is gradually brewing.

Li Yingyuan instigated Chen Zhutou to investigate Liu Sanduo for nearly a month, and during this time, the county government was full of rumors, and almost every apprentice and dependent was involved in inexplicable right and wrong.

The local dependents of Dinghai consciously or unconsciously monitored the returnees, and the returnees were angry and wanted to find fault, but they did not know how to start, and the feud between the two sides began to gradually become public, even before the English did not hide the differences between the two sides.

The English, who were supposed to mediate, did not say a word, turning a blind eye to the struggle between the two sides, which encouraged the local dependents, whether they were Yamen, Proton, Mercenary, or Singles.

With the natural advantage of the local dependents, the impartiality of the English is the biggest stretch, and those returnees simply cannot compete with these native dependents.

It was also when this infighting gradually escalated that Zheng Sanguan came to Li Yingyuan and specially chatted with Li Yingyuan about Liu Sanduo.

"Brother, is there some misunderstanding between us?" Zheng Sanguan asked with a sigh.

"There is no misunderstanding, it's just that they are all on an errand under the English people, and they all want to fight for success. Li Yingyuan also sighed and said.

Li Yingyuan didn't have any ill feelings towards Zheng Sanguan, although the other party was sad about Hai Dagui's family at the time, but it was a business affair after all, and both sides didn't tear their faces in the process, and they left enough face for each other.

"In the final analysis, everything between us was made up by that bastard Liu Sanduo. Zheng Sanguan said: "Originally, everyone was good to each other, they could say hello to each other and help each other when they had anything, but it was Liu Sanduo's bastard who disturbed everyone's feelings, and now he looks like an enemy, which is really not a son of man." ”

"Who's to say it isn't. Li Yingyuan continued: "That bastard is too, didn't he fight with him at the auction, he took the silver for nothing, and he took it for himself, and if he couldn't take it, he didn't have enough money, so he should give it to others."

As far as he was concerned, he wanted to trouble me for this matter, deliberately followed me and didn't say anything, and slandered Major Andrew, almost making it impossible for my master's family to return to the land. ”

The matter of checking the letter should have nothing to do with Liu Sanduo, but at this time, Li Yingyuan made such an accusation, and Zheng Sanguan immediately nodded in agreement.

"Yes. You say what your identity is, what is his identity, he is a small soldier who wants to fight with you at the level of a non-commissioned officer, then he really doesn't know how many pounds and taels he has, and he is completely looking for death. Zheng Sanguan said: "By the way, you are looking for someone to rectify Liu Sanduo in the past few days, as long as he is followed as soon as he leaves the county office, this kid is about to collapse, and he doesn't dare to go out now."

He was afraid of this and that during this time, he was also worried that others would knock on his stick, and he was about to become a nervous disorder. He came to me yesterday and cried like something, saying that everything was his fault, and I just hope that you have a lot of adults and can let him go, what do you think?

Why don't you find a time to find him and let you beat him up?"

Hearing this, Li Yingyuan understood a little, Zheng Sanguan had the meaning of seeking peace. This is not to say that the returnees bow their heads to the locals, but they are unwilling to make trouble so unclear, and even if they want to fight, what kind of fighting methods, to what extent, what bottom lines and rules they have, they must test each other clearly.

Perhaps, after Liu Sanduo's incident is over this time, the two sides will start to fight officially. Therefore, even if the Liu Sanduo incident is reconciled, it will be the beginning of the struggle between the returnees and the locals, not the settlement of the struggle.

The current situation is that the returnees don't want to fight with others for inexplicable things like Liu Sanduo. Liu Sanduo was not a member of the returnee faction in the first place, but now it seems that the locals want to deal with Liu Sanduo, and the returnee faction wants to protect Liu Sanduo, which can be regarded as trouble.

Even if you want to fight, you have to find the right reason and timing, and now it's too bad for them to make such a fuss, and it doesn't make any sense.

Of course, Li Yingyuan's identity is also a little embarrassing, and he is not a local, if he can find a way to make Li Yingyuan no longer get involved in the fight between the returnees and the locals, and remain neutral or at least not so actively participate in the fight, it will be profitable for the returnees.

After all, Li Yingyuan has a very close relationship with Dr. Shepud, and Major Andrew also looks at him differently, which is obvious to everyone and is unwilling to provoke too much.

"Hehe, this kid is soft, that kid was so arrogant on the day of the auction, and threatened me to give me a good look, so I asked Chen Changsheng to find someone to see what this kid usually does. What, he has an opinion?" Li Yingyuan couldn't help but smile.

"I don't dare to have opinions, but I am afraid that there must be. Chen Changsheng's guy is not authentic, he asked his father's relationship to find someone on the street to follow him, and he was so scared that he was always suspicious now, didn't he cry and shout and ask me to be a middleman, please forgive me. "I haven't seen him for a few days, and Zheng Sanguan's ability to tell nonsense has also increased a lot.

"Damn, Chen Changsheng is really ignorant, I obviously said that I was going to investigate secretly, how could I still let people find out. Li Yingyuan scolded and scolded.

"That's not the point, brother. Liu Sanduo, this kid is quite timid, he asked me to give in to you, saying that he was angry at the beginning, and now he knows that he can't fight you, so he asks me to pass a message to you, and wants to find a time to set up a banquet to apologize to you, what do you think?" Zheng Sanguan said.

"Well, let me think about it. Oh, by the way, this kid always says that he is great in the background, what's the matter, his backstage has also found you?" Li Yingyuan asked Zheng Sanguan with a slanted eye.

"backstage. Zheng Sanguan scolded: "This guy is a thief at best, he doesn't do anything after doing things for the English, who would be so blind to be backstage for him."

Isn't this because he is also in the military department, and if he asks me to say good things, I can't pull my face and ignore it, otherwise I won't care about his. ”
