Lord of the House
Vol 10 Chapter 2: the past
Chen Hualian led Yongchang Hou Yuan back to power and Yuan Jinsheng and his son to Lin Fu to wait in the outer wing of the Shoujingtang in the Dongya study.
"My lord is discussing matters in the front hall, and please ask Yongchang Marquis and Young Marquis to wait here for a while..." Chen Hualian instructed someone to make tea, and he sat here to accompany him - Lin Fu's daily office in the study is the key place , Although Lin Fu just came back from Zhedong, he hasn't stepped into the study for half a step, but there are guests here, and the chief guard on duty will not leave for a moment.
Yuan Guizheng's hair is already gray, and he is already in his 50s, and he is already old--Chen Hua has a clumsy face, and when he greets him, he shuts up. furnishings.
The back room was Lin Fu's daily office study. It was really simple and small, only three steps square. In the center was a long wooden desk, full of books, and a little messy. There are no common four treasures of the study on the long case, and a few charcoal pens produced by Huaidong are inserted into a porcelain tube. There is a small cabinet against the wall, still full of files, there is a small couch for meeting guests and chatting, there is a low table on the couch, and a corner table is placed in the corner of the wall, and there is a curved neck green. Porcelain vase with a few newly picked osmanthus branches hanging buds.
The osmanthus trees in Chongzhou have already budded?
Yuan Guizheng has been in Chongzhou for two days, but he has not noticed these details.
Hearing the sound of a piece of armor outside, he looked around, but Lin Fu and two guards came to the yard, Yuan Guizheng and his son Yuan Jinsheng stood up and walked to the porch to greet them.
"I happened to be discussing matters in the front hall, and the Lord Hou has been waiting for a long time." Lin Fu stood in the courtyard and bowed his hands, and asked Chen Hualian, "Have you ever prepared tea for Lord Hou..."
"Don't dare to neglect, I just troubled Miss Xiaolan to make tea, sir, you will come." Chen Hualian said.
This study is actually similar to the small courtyard where Song Jia lives alone next to the Dongya. Lin Bie is in Chongzhou, and Song Jia always helps to deal with official letters. The study is also handled by people in Song Jia's courtyard on weekdays.
"When Chongzhou visited the Queen Mother, I didn't tell the Marquis Lin. It was very rude; I planned to return to Jiangning tomorrow, so I came here tonight to visit the old man." Yuan Guizheng said.
"It's easy to say, it's easy to say..." Lin Fu said with a smile, as if he didn't mind Yuan Guizheng coming to Chongzhou without notice.
In the side hall just now, someone was dissatisfied that Yuan Guizheng had come to Chongzhou and the Ministry of Military Intelligence was unaware, but Lin Fu didn't care.
For the existence of the Ministry of Military Intelligence, Lin Fu wanted to use it as a staff agency, focusing on the military, rather than the use of spy agencies to monitor places; the Department of Military Intelligence mainly trains military attachés and staff officers with tactical and strategic thinking, not spy agents.
Although the Ministry of Military Intelligence has a special service room, the investment in personnel and resources is very limited, and it is mainly used for intelligence collection in the areas controlled by Zhejiang, Fujian and Yanhu; And Chongzhou's side is not closely monitoring the daily life of Empress Dowager Liang and Hailing Wang Yuanjianhai - Yuan Guizheng really wants to hide in Chongzhou and meet Empress Dowager Liang.
Lin Fu invited Yuan Guizheng and Yuan Jinsheng to sit down in the study, and said, "After Su Mei arrived in Chongzhou, he opened a teahouse, always thinking of Hou Ye's kindness. Brother Jinsheng will sit in the teahouse in Sumei and talk about old love..."
"Then don't bother, I will come to Chongzhou in the future to visit Lord Lin and Miss Su Mei..." Yuan Guizheng said.
Once upon a time, Yuan Guizheng regarded Su Mei as the most important piece of chess, but this piece is no longer in the hands of Yuan Guizheng - under Jiangning's jurisdiction, Lin Fu has the most military power, and Lin Xuwen, Huang Jinnian and others are all attached to Huaidong, Even if he exposes the Sumen case at this time, the court will only calm down and dare not offend Huaidong; and Huaidong and Jiangning have long been separated from each other, so it is not bad to use the Sumen case to sow discord.
A few days ago, an official in Jiangning asked the Empress Dowager Liang to return to the court. Lin Fu thought that Yuan Guizheng had come to Chongzhou for this reason. But Yuan Guizheng didn't talk about it, he also patiently didn't mention it, gossip and asked: "The prince is here in Chongzhou, why didn't the prince accompany him?"
Lin Bie met Yuan Guizheng several times in Jiangning, and Fan Ding accompanied him, but this time he was the only one to see him.
"Xie Chaozhong bought the Fan Tower, Fan Ding had a sudden illness and was bedridden, otherwise he would have come to Chongzhou to see his old friends." Yuan Guizheng said.
"Oh, the Fanlou has changed hands?" Lin Fu recalled the old scenery of the Fanlou, and asked with emotion, "When did it happen?"
"Just last month." Yuan Guizheng replied, a little desolate in his words.
On the surface, the fan tower is the property of the fan family, but it actually represents the glory of Yongchang Houye in Jiangning City.
Yuan Guizheng also participated in the matter of supporting King Lu. Although Emperor Yongxing did not hold everyone accountable after the incident, he gently lifted the matter of supporting and established, but as Gu Wuchen was forced to leave Jiangning, King Lu lowered his rank and changed his title. Feng Hailing King, Yongchang Houfu in Jiangning is also doomed to decline. In the past, the guests of Yongchang Hou's mansion were now afraid that they would be related to Yuan Guizheng and make the new emperor suspicious.
Once the Yongchang Houfu loses power, the huge industry under its jurisdiction will naturally become the target of the newly rising powerful and powerful in Jiangning. Xie Chaozhong bought the vassal building that was worth a lot of money, right? Fan Ding was acutely ill and bedridden, probably out of anger?
Thirty years of Hedong and thirty years of Hexi, Yongchang Houfu and the vassal family can get today's reward, and they deserve it - Yuan Guizheng may be able to defect to the Liang family, but at this time the Yanhu army is on the east front. The Liang family is also unable to protect themselves.
Lin Fu chuckled and said, "Xie Chaozhong, the saint's family member, Zhenglong, didn't expect that he still had the heart to run a restaurant.
Yuan Guizheng glanced at Lin Fu's face, and he also knew that since the Marquis of Yongchang had some friendship with Huaidong, he was completely ruined because of his support, not to mention that Lin Fu and Fan Ding's father and son had deep grievances, so he didn't expect Lin Fu. Fuhui sympathizes with their fiefdom for Xie Chaozhong to take a robbery; what he wants to see is Lin Fu's attitude towards Xie Chaozhong: Lin Fu and Huaidong Army want to go further, Xie Chaozhong and Yuying Army are destined to be an obstacle ——Unfortunately, in Lin Fu's eyes, Yuan Guizheng could not see his vigilance against Xie Chaozhong.
Yuan Guizheng thought about it and was relieved. Xie Chaozhong was just a nouveau riche. Because of the favor of the new emperor, he was able to take charge of the imperial army and became a powerful person in the dynasty. How could Lin Fu and Huaidong Army fight with one knife and one shot? , And has a solid foundation in operating Huaidong for several years?
Yuan Guizheng was also full of emotion in his heart, thinking that Lin Bie was just a small character in Jiangning, who was fighting hard, why did he ever look at him? But now that things have changed, it's his turn to speak in a low voice in front of him - it makes people feel that the feng shui has changed too quickly.
Gossip has been talked about for a long time, and no one is talking about the topic.
When Yuan Guizheng and Yuan Jinsheng got up to leave, Lin Fucai pretended to ask Ran Ran and asked, "I have been leading troops to fight in eastern Zhejiang for many days, but I haven't said goodbye to the Queen Mother for many days; Come over there, has the Queen Mother's condition improved?"
Yuan Guizheng smiled in his heart: Lin Fu imprisoned the Queen Mother and King Hailing in Chongzhou to live, and he never showed up again. What does it have to do with him not being able to lead troops in eastern Zhejiang to fight?
Yuan Guizheng said: "The spirit is only slightly better, but I have a headache when I blow the wind. Please ask the imperial doctor to prescribe two more medicines, maybe I will see improvement..."
Lin Fuxiu put his hands behind him and said in deep thought, "There are also good doctors in Chongzhou. I will go to greet the Queen Mother tomorrow and ask the doctors in Chongzhou to treat the Queen Mother for one or two times. I'm afraid it will not be in line with the rules..."
"Lin Houye is thinking about the Queen Mother's condition, what's wrong with the rules..." Yuan Guizheng said, and he agreed that Lin Fu and his son Yuan Jinsheng would say goodbye to the Queen Mother tomorrow when he went to greet the Queen Mother.
Lin Fu returned to the inner courtyard and rushed Song Jia back from Beilu.
"I heard that Yongchang Hou just came over?" Song Jia asked.
"Playing riddles for a long time, it's very boring..." Lin Bie said.
Song Jia speculated: "The Liang family did not have the guts to fight Yanhu to the death, and did not give up on Pingyuan and Jinan, fearing that the entire army would die on both sides of the Yellow River, but once they gave up on Pingyuan and Jinan, they would become a lost dog. After the fall of Linzi, the Liang family The situation is even more embarrassing. Yuan Guizheng happens to be in Chongzhou, maybe Empress Dowager Liang drove him to test the attitude here?"
If the Liang family gave up Jinan and retreated to the south, they would be next to the two Huaihe Rivers. The Liang family lost Jinan and the plains, and it was difficult to become independent. They had to get the support of Jiangning or Huaidong to gain a firm foothold in southwestern Shandong. In the past, the Liang family still Not so urgent, Linzi fell, and the flanks of Jinan and Pingyuan were exposed to the attack range of Yanhu soldiers and horses. "Lin Fu murmured to himself.
"Anyway, Huaidong should firmly ask the Liang family to send troops to help Yangxin, otherwise Madam will not feel better." Song Jia said softly.
No matter how slim the hope is, the Liang family is the last resort to solve the siege of Yangxin. If Huaidong supported the Liang family's withdrawal to the south, it would undoubtedly be a complete abandonment of Yangxin, which would be difficult for Gu Junxun to accept emotionally.
Lin Bie frowned, and Song Jia said again, "Father and son of the Liang family didn't even dare to fight the Hulu, even if they were allowed to retreat to the southwest of Shandong, how could they rely on them? That old witch, if you want to return the court Go to Jiangning, let her go..."
"That's right," Lin Fu felt less hesitant after hearing what Song Jia said. He took her hand, pulled it to him, and said with a smile, "You are really my good girl..."
"Do I really only have this role?" Song Jiayan asked, but then she thought that the words were ambiguous, her face flushed slightly, and she pushed Lin Bie's body and said, "The four ladies can all wait for you to come over, I will pass the word, they will It's like eating me..."
"Nonsense, why are the four ladies?" Lin Fu scolded with a smile.
"I haven't counted the guy from the teahouse and the sixth lady," Song Jia teased him, helped him open the umbrella, pushed him out, and said, "Come over... I haven't seen Mingyue for a long time. Back then, I told She Feihu that I wanted to give you the bright moon, and I gave you a smile, and then I heard him joke that he wanted to give the bright moon to Qin Zitan - Qin Zitan can also attract women's minds, and Mingyue's mouth Don't tell me, I saved a lot of thought, who would have thought that so many things would happen later? Qin Zitan died by hanging..." Having said that, Song Jia stopped talking and called Chen Hualian to wait for the guards to come in and guard Lin.
