Lord of the House: Chapter 31 On merits to be rewarded
After Jia Pengyu, the inspector of Jiangdong, made his official career, most of his merits were in the punishment of Cao, but he was born in the Western Qin Dynasty, and he was inevitably branded with the Western Qin faction.
Last year, the officers and soldiers defeated the Donghu people in Chentangyi in northern Hebei, and their vitality was severely damaged. It also forced the central center to accept the humiliation of the hegemony with the humiliating conditions of cracking the earth, in exchange for the elite soldiers in the southeast to support the northern front. The battle of Chen Tangyi made the sage lose his confidence in the ruling Western Qin faction officials. Even though the leader of the Western Qin faction, Chen Xinbo, could barely maintain his position, he was on the verge of collapse. Fall, the Western Qin faction that was once prosperous in the past is about to fall completely.
Jia Pengyu was able to get rid of Jiangdong's inspector and envoy for his familiarity with the laws and regulations, and he was well-known in Jiangdong for his honesty, diligence, and good decision-making, but he knew that these could not become his amulet. It would be nice to be able to retire and return home smoothly.
Jia Pengyu, who is in his 60s, has a short beard and slightly frosty hair on his temples. Under the lights, he squinted at Lin Fu who was standing in the courtyard. He saw this young man named Jiangning who was in the feudal tower a few days ago. He is tall and straight, and has a calm demeanor. Although he is a Confucian scholar, he has a valiant and valiant attitude when he walks with a sword and a tiger. He was born in a weak position. It is no wonder that Gu Wuchen tried to protect him to be the prison officer of Jiangdao Prison, but he felt strange in his heart. : Why didn't he go to the capital to participate in the meeting to try for a more prominent name? I thought to myself: I don’t want to be so famous. It’s okay to have this prestigious name. The DPRK and China’s cronies are attacking, thirty years Hedong, thirty years Hexi, maybe ten or eight years later, the Chu party will lose power again, squeezed into the vortex of the center, maybe there are no corpses left. Stay safe in place.
Jia Pengyu only wanted to return to his hometown safely at this time. Maybe in a few years, the Chu party will decline and he will still have a chance to become an official. At this time, he will not touch Gu Wuchen's bad head for no reason, although he has hearts for those who Gu Wuchen recommends Somewhat repelled, but seeing with his own eyes that Lin Fu has an extraordinary bearing, and besides, Lin Fu has indeed made a great contribution today, he will not be too cold, and eagerly press Lin Fu's shoulder and say: "Okay, okay, the young man recommended by Gu Daren. People really have a future." As for the details of Lin Fu's long circle from Nancheng to bring people into the city, Jia Pengyu would not go into detail. Besides, Lin Fu and the others will go to Donghua Gate. Most of the aunts and sisters of the She family will be intercepted by the soldiers and horses of Jiangning Prefecture, so the credit of the inspector and envoy will be weak. From this point of view, Jia Pengyu also thinks that Lin Fu and the others will be taken away. well done.
"Everything Lin Fu relies on the cultivation of the two adults." Lin Fu said.
She Mingyue and her sister-in-law She Song stood in the yard and lowered their eyebrows. They didn't know Lin Fu's identities along the way, but they were just scared and led them around the city. At this time, they saw Jiang Ning, the inspector and the deputy inspector. The officers are very close to this young man named "Lin Bie", and they are even more curious: Who is he? Before they came here, they had never heard of any big family surnamed Lin in Jiangning City.
At this moment, Yang Pu has prepared a quiet room and invited the aunt of the She family to go in and have a rest. The two aunts and sisters of the She family were resting for a while in the quiet room, when they heard the sound of horses' hoofs coming from outside the gate. The steps were chaotic, and then I heard a familiar voice coming from the yard. She Mingyue couldn't hold it back for a while, and cried out in desperation. She opened the door and saw her second brother standing in the yard surrounded by all the guards. The two senior officers in the room greeted each other, choked and shouted, "Second brother..."
Lin Fujing stood behind Gu Wuchen and watched as She Feihu, the second son of the Hou Shewenzhuang of Jin'an, walked in accompanied by Wang Xueshan, the governor of Jiangning Prefecture, and Zhang Yubo, who joined the army.
Although She Feihu traveled to Jiangning to serve as the envoy of Jin'an Hou Jiangning Jin, a civil official of the sixth grade, but at this time he was wearing a crimson copper rivet inlaid steel sheet cotton armor, with a ring of gold inlaid black leather around his waist. A sword in a copper sheath, his left hand was wrapped in a white cloth. I think he was slightly injured in the fight with the assassin. One of the two attendants behind him held a lacquered red copper jacket with feathers for him, and the other held a chest-high chest in his hand. His saber, the blade is dazzling under the light, making She Feihu look murderous. In addition, he is tall and straight, with a slightly thin face, thick eyebrows and big eyes, and his eyes are very bright.
If he hadn't seen him sit outside Donghuamen in the afternoon and watched his wife and sister take risks to lure away most of the assassins for him, Lin Fu might have regarded him as a first-class hero, but the corners of his mouth were overflowing. With an indistinct smile under the lights, watching him chat with Jia Pengyu and Gu Wuchen in the yard, he thought that even if Feihu Feihu was a figure, he was nothing more than a traitor.
She Mingyue rushed out emotionally, while She Feihu's wife, She Song, held the door calmly and called softly, "Husband, you're here..." Pingting walked to She Feihu's side, and was very docile. To Wang Xueshan, Zhang Yubo and others, they held their bodies and gave salutes.
"Dare to ask which of the righteous men saved Zhuojing and Shemei, Feihu should give thanks to each other." She Feihu clasped his fists and said to everyone in the courtyard.
"Don't dare to be, someone Lin is not talented. He and his servants were lucky enough to save Mrs. Zun and Sister Ling outside Donghua Gate." Lin Fu stood up and bowed to She Feihu, and he did not politely refuse She Feihu's generous gift. He just heard from Gu Wuchen and Jia Pengyu that She Mingyue was the young daughter of the Marquis of Jin'an Shewenzhuang, and he wondered why She Mingyue didn't stay at the knees of the Marquis of Jin'an, but had to follow her elder brother She Feihu to Jiangning to take up his post. ?
"Who is this?" She Feihu glanced at Lin Fu with a sharp eye, and when he turned to look at Wang Xueshan, the governor of Jiangning Prefecture, his eyes became a little puzzled, as if he was waiting for the Jiangning officials present to replace him. Introduce Lin Bie's identity.
When the convoy passed by Lin Fu and the others on the official road outside Donghuamen, She Feihu was sitting in the carriage behind and noticed Lin Fu and the others, who were wearing waist knives and leading a good horse. To be honest, it was Lin Fu who attracted them. It attracted the attention of him and the guards, but he took it lightly to the real assassin who used the charcoal ox cart as a cover. Later, Lin Fu and the others snatched the carriage from the assassin and ran to the east without stopping. She Feihu and the others regarded Lin Fu as an accomplice of the assassin until they received a report from the inspector. All the guards around him were sent out into Sheshan to search for them, and they also sent a large number of patrol horses out of Dongcheng to search for the soldiers and horses of Jiangning Prefecture and Jiangning's police officers. How could it be expected that Lin Fu and his party went around the city from the south of the city in a big circle, until it was dark and said that they were there. They were rescued.
She Feihu was helpless in his heart, but he had to admit that the people were indeed rescued by Lin Fu and the others. Originally, his guards could surround and kill more than 30 assassins, but after chasing them one after another into Sheshan, five or six assassins escaped from the mountain. Even if Lin Fu went around in a big circle and finally sent the people to the Minister of Justice, he could only regard it as an internal struggle between the officials of Jiangning City and the government. Besides, he also knew in his heart that the people in Jiangning were against the people who have disturbed East Fujian for nearly ten years. What attitude would the She family have? If they weren't worried that their He family would start fighting again, these Jiangning officials present might even have hoped that he would be killed by the assassin outside Donghua Gate.
Wang Xueshan and Zhang Yubo didn't know how to introduce Lin Fu, but Jia Pengyu said with a smile: "Master Young Master is a young hero; Lin Juzi is also a young hero, and he is very appreciated by the adults..."
Gu Wuchen nodded with a smile on his face, and was very satisfied that Jia Pengyu said in front of everyone that Lin Fu was a middle-aged man from his family.
She Feihu still didn't know who Lin Fu was, but he knew an important piece of information was that the young man surnamed Lin in front of him was a close confidant of Gu Wuchen, the upstart of the Chu Party and the deputy envoy of the Jiangdong police inspector, and he raised his fist and salutes Lin Fu again and said: " Feihu is here to thank Lin Juzi, today Zhuojing and Shimei were frightened, Feihu wants to take them back to the hotel to rest early, and will come to the honorable mansion at another time to reward..."
"Please, please..." Lin Fu still folded his hands and said with a smile, very politely watching She Feihu and the others leave the court.
After She Feihu and the others left, Jiangning's governor Wang Xueshan left without stopping, but Zuo Sikou joined the army and Zhang Yubo stayed behind to report to the police envoy about the hunt for assassins. To tell the truth, as long as the two aunts and sisters of the She family return safely, the Jiangning Mansion's soldiers and horses and the police envoys have little interest in searching and rescuing the assassins, but the matter of face still has to go on.
Lin Fu asked Zhang Yubo to know that except for the five or six assassins who fled into Sheshan, the other assassins all killed the She family guards before the troops of the soldiers and horses arrived. The death of the guards of the She family was also quite heavy. Almost 20 people died on the spot, and more than 10 people were seriously injured. Ironically, the swords, guns and crossbows used by the assassins were all from Jin'an Mansion. Zhang Yubo guessed that these assassins might be Li Zhuo's sergeant, who was unhappy about the ten-year rebellion of the extravagant family. Assassination, after all, Li Zhuo led the army to fight against She's family for many years, and it was normal for his subordinates to seize weapons from Jin'an House; this can also be indirectly proved from She Feihu's plan to question the behind-the-scenes orders.
However, in addition to the patrolling of the soldiers and horses, She Feihu also sent most of his guards out to continue to hunt down the assassins, and he was unwilling to let the rest escape easily.
Lin Bie sighed endlessly. In addition to dozens of intact elite guards, She Feihu also had Qing Fengxing's force that could be secretly used. He was a little worried about those assassins. Of course, he wasn't worried that the assassin who was let go today would be caught by the She family and involved in his head.
Lin Bie immediately decided to save She's aunt at Donghuamen, not just to pity Xiangxiyu. First, they were carrying knives and horses at the time, and they were also suspicious people. It was difficult to explain the situation to the guards of the luxury family at that time. In order to avoid accidental injuries, they had to stay far away. Another one, he guessed that She Feihu would not be in the carriage, to save the two aunts and sisters of the She family at least so that the She family would not lose face in the future and publicly target Jiyun Club; Feng Xing swears against each other, but the She family treats Jiyun Club as a benefactor. It is very interesting to think about it. Maybe She Feihu will feel quite depressed after knowing that he has vowed to become an enemy of Qing Feng. Of course, being able to save the two aunts and sisters of the She family is also a great achievement within the Inspector's Office. Lin Fu is about to officially enter the office of the Inspector's Office, and he needs such credit to support his appearance; Gu Wuchen resisted objections and recommended him to serve as a prisoner in Jiangdao prison. The prison officer was also under considerable pressure, so that there would be no objection to his appointment as the prison officer within the Ministry of Justice. Another, Lin Fu of course also hopes that the more enemies of the luxury family, the better, so that the pressure that Jiyun Club may face in the future will be relieved. Only then does Lin Fu have to grab the carriage and escape, and introduce the assassins into the mountains and jungles. In the middle, avoid killing Duo Yuan, the guard of the luxury family.
Lin Fu also guessed at the time that these assassins might have a military background, and the involvement was deep, so after they rescued people, they killed them without asking for details. Thinking about these assassins is really pitiful, maybe they will be hunted down by the military in the future. Quit the mouth, after all, the mainstream in the DPRK still hopes to maintain the immediate relationship with the luxury family.
In the hall, Gu Wuchen had inquired with Zhang Yubo about the Jiangning Mansion’s soldiers and horses chasing the assassins, and discussed with Jia Pengyu to hand over all the pursuit of the assassins to the Jiangning Mansion’s soldiers and horses. After Zhang Yubo said goodbye and left, Gu Wuchen thought about the After disposing of a few official duties in his hand, he returned to the house. Yang Pu came over and said that Lin Fu and the others were still waiting in the yamen. Gu Wuchen then packed up and prepared to leave the yamen. He walked out of the hall and watched Lin Fu lead a horse in front of the hall. He waited under the ginkgo tree and asked, "Why didn't you go back to rest earlier?"
"There are assassins outside Dongcheng. I'm afraid that the city will not be peaceful. Lin Fu can leave with confidence after watching the adults return to the mansion." Lin Fu said.
"Those assassins are not so bold in Jiangning City." Gu Wuchen said with a smile.
"It's better to be careful," Lin Fu said. "It's not that Lin Fu is suspicious. In Shiliang County, the luxury family is also suspected."
"Don't talk nonsense in front of outsiders." Although Gu Wuchen said this, his tone was gentle. Obviously, he also had this suspicion. After all, he was a newcomer of the Chu Party and a dignified fourth-rank local official. Being stabbed to death on the way to his post will immediately intensify the factional struggle between the DPRK and China. The more chaotic the center, the more beneficial the extravagant family. Of course, the assassins encountered in Shiliang County may also be behind the scenes of other factions. Because there are too many involved, Gu Wuchen does not want to study the Shiliang County assassins.
"Lin Fu knows that he will never dare to talk nonsense in front of others." Lin Fu said.
"By the way, tomorrow the Jiangning staff will call you to ask about the right thing. How are you preparing?" Gu Wuchen thought that Lin Fu was going to officially serve as the prison officer of Jiangdao Prison, and he had to pass the last stage tomorrow. For such a credit, I would not dare to deliberately make things difficult if I wanted to come to the Jiangning personnel department tomorrow."
"Lin Fu has not been slack in studying the laws recently." Lin Fu replied.
