The Founding of the Red Chamber

Have you seen it?

You know why a scheming person like Chen Qibao can't do well as an emperor, right?

It's because, although you, Chen Qibao, have scheming plans, none of the ministers below are fools, right?In particular, the higher the position and weight, the better one is among the best.For example, Governor Zhang, Chen Qibao sent an imperial envoy to look at the people's situation in the south of the Yangtze River, and he immediately understood that His Majesty the Emperor was worried that he would support himself with his troops!

Governor Zhang's mood, how should I put it, is just like the mood when he first learned about Lin Jing's military exploits but only received a word of praise.

The chills are mild.

How Governor Zhang has lived these past few years, only Governor Zhang himself knows.To say that we are trembling and walking on thin ice is an understatement.He was the governor of Zhejiang Province at the beginning. Because of his cautiousness in his duties, Zhejiang Province has made some achievements in preventing Japanese bandits.Later, the imperial court wanted to unify the anti-Japanese front and let him concurrently serve as the governor of Fujian, so he was directly promoted to the governor of Zhejiang and Fujian, the first governor in the world.Earlier, Quanzhou City was looted twice by Japanese bandits, and His Majesty was furious and reprimanded him twice.Governor Zhang sent his apprentice Xiaosan to Quanzhou to fight against the Japanese, and this was just a little achievement, and His Majesty asked the imperial envoy to "take a look" at the people in the south of the Yangtze River!

Governor Zhang really wanted to sneer, and the reason why he didn't sneer was because Shi Shiro was present, so Governor Zhang said gently and pleasantly, "This is really great, okay, I know about it. You come from afar, first Go and have a rest."

Shi Shilang took the order and followed the guards of the governor's mansion to the guest courtyard to rest.

After Shi Shilang left, Governor Zhang smiled, "Sometimes I think about it, I'm also at this age, it's really better to go to Wusha and go back to my hometown to have fun with my grandchildren."

Mr. He comforted softly, "My lord, this is also a common practice. Besides, we in the south of the Yangtze River have not been very peaceful in the past few years." His majesty naturally has his own way of governing when the officials in the frontier are away. Mr. He believes that it is the current In the official circles of Zhejiang and Fujian, I am afraid that many of His Majesty's confidantes are placed in it.But, why do it have to be so obvious.Now, Quanzhou has just won a big victory, and your majesty will send an imperial envoy to see the people in the south of the Yangtze River.

Before the flying birds are exhausted, should we hide our good bows?

This method is really short-sighted.

After all, Mr. He is a scholar, and he has received the education of "the king's father", even if he is dissatisfied with the king of a country, it's just a whirlwind in his stomach.Mr. He immediately cheered up and said, "Is Kong Guogong dissatisfied with us about the imperial envoy?"

Governor Zhang said, "Right now, there are frequent success reports. The Kong family has always been the main fighting party, so why would you be dissatisfied? Just look at him, Ah Qing's military exploits have been overwhelmed. It can be seen that the Kong family is now in power."

"That's strange. Why did His Majesty suddenly send an imperial envoy?" Mr. He couldn't figure out the cause and effect for a moment.

Governor Zhang said, "The most important thing now is how to receive this imperial envoy."

Mr. He said, "I'm afraid I'm going to bleed." Naturally, Lin Jing would not let Shi Silang come here empty-handed, and he wrote a letter to the governor himself, explaining the situation of the imperial envoy in detail, including asking for money with money. Things, once you give money, you can inquire about it.You can see this character.

"Get to know him first, and see which family he is from." A cold light flashed in Governor Zhang's eyes. No matter which family he is from, Governor Zhang would never allow himself to be slaughtered and bullied like this!

The entire political situation in Zhejiang and Fujian was a little delicate because of the imperial envoys, and it didn't take long for Lin Jing to know that the reason for his military exploits was due to the troubles of the Kong family.It's not that Lin Jing deliberately inquired about it. Mr. He mentioned something to Lin Jing in private when he came to Quanzhou. Lin Jing said, "I don't care about military exploits or not. If I want to be an official, I can't wait until now. It's just, After the saint, it's nothing more than that."

Mr. He persuaded Lin Jing, "Thunder, rain and dew are all due to your kindness. Ah Qing, you are still young, let's just say a few words in private. It's not easy to say such things outside. It's not good to be overheard."

Lin Jing said, "Don't worry, sir, I won't say this in front of Governor Kong. I just feel strange, what kind of relationship does this Kong family have with our Governor? It's not about my military achievements. Anyway, I came here I don’t like Kong’s family, so he can do whatever he likes. I find it strange that since Kong Guogong can impeach my military achievements with a single sentence, according to Kong Guogong’s situation, why would the imperial court send imperial envoys to ‘see’ the people in the south of the Yangtze River.”

Mr. He did not lie to Lin Jing, and said, "I can't understand this matter. Now people go to the capital to inquire, but I don't believe it for a while. Ah Qing, you have always been very wise. In your opinion?" In the past, Mr. He still regarded Lin Jing as a younger generation, but since Lin Jing commanded a battle to defend Quanzhou City, even if Lin Jing didn't have any achievements in the battle, Mr. He now regards Lin Jing as an equal. On hand.

Lin Jing frowned slightly, "This matter is indeed very serious. If it is said that Jiangnan's resistance against the Japanese has not been effective, it is reasonable and reasonable for the imperial court to send imperial envoys here. We have just won a big victory, and the imperial envoys are here at this time. What are you looking for?"

Mr. He said softly, "Do you think it is possible to see if the fruit is ripe? Is it time to pick it?"

Mr. He suspects that someone saw that the anti-corruption situation in the south of the Yangtze River is good, and came to pick the fruit, but, Lin Jing said, "But the Kong family is a family of civil servants, and his family does not have military officials. If it is a family of in-laws, it is meaningless, after all , Your Excellency Governor has always had a bad relationship with the Kong family."

"It's not the Kong family," Mr. He said, "Where's the Xie family?"

"Xie and Kong have always been at odds. Kong Guogong is the leader of the war. Now the situation in Jiangnan is very good. Even if Kong Guogong risked his life, he would not let Xie's family pick this fruit." Lin Jing said decisively.

"Then, there is another family." Mr. He said softly, "I don't know, Ah Qing, have you heard of Lin Guogong, the Lin family?"

When Mr. He mentioned the Lin family, Lin Jing's pupils shrank for a moment. Fortunately, his ability to control his expression was first-class, and even Mr. He did not notice Lin Jing's abnormality.Lin Jing paused for a moment, then Fang said, "Sir, you mean, the mother clan of the Empress Dowager Lin first, Duke Lin's mansion."

"Yes." Mr. He was able to mention the situation in the capital with Lin Jing, so he did not regard Lin Jing as an outsider. Mr. He said, "Lin Guogong's mansion, Lin family, Lin Guogong, Lin Yi."

"Sir, why would you think of the Lin family? I heard that Lin Guogong has always been an official in the court. Although the Lin family is a family of military generals, but in the past, Mr. Lin died in Bianzhou, and Lin Guogong recovered after his filial piety. He has never been in charge of military affairs. " Lin Jing said without changing his expression.

"Ah Ching, you only know one thing, not the other." Mr. He said, "The Lin family has always been a family of military commanders. The sister of Old Master Lin was the empress of Emperor Xianren, and later Empress Dowager Lin. Emperor Xiande When she ascended the throne, because she was still young, Empress Dowager Lin was always in charge. This empress was quite talented, but it was a pity that she passed away too early. After Empress Lin passed away, all the sons behind Emperor De died. , succeeded Jinshang from a side branch. Today's Queen Mother Kong is still the daughter-in-law of Mrs. Lin. Moreover, Jinshang's access to the throne has a lot to do with the Confucius family and the Lin family. Therefore, after Jinshang ascended the throne, the Lin family prepared To be reused. To tell you the truth, Ah Qing, the proposition that Zhejiang and Fujian were united to fight against the Japanese was first proposed by Mr. Lin. In fact, what Mr. Lin mentioned at the beginning was that the Soviet Union, Zhejiang, and Fujian should be united to fight against the Japanese. It can be seen that this Lord Lin has extraordinary knowledge, and this Lord Lin is not inexperienced in leading troops. When Emperor Xiande was in power, Lord Lin led an army to pacify the bandits in Xiangyang. Lord Lin deeply Accepting the trust of the present, others may not be able to take over the position of Governor General, but if it is this Lord Lin, he will definitely be able to take it over."

Listening to Mr. He's analysis, Lin Jing's mood gradually calmed down, and he said softly, "In the past few years, our anti-Japanese situation has been very good here, at this time, no matter who wants to seek the position of Governor-General, he will be infamous in the officialdom. According to what you said, my lord, if Mr. Lin is a very knowledgeable person, how could he do such a trick."

"Ah Qing thinks it's not Mr. Lin?"

"No." Lin Jing said, "If you don't believe me, sir, I have a way to prove it."

"How?"

Lin Jing clung to Mr. He's ear, and said a few words in a soft voice. Mr. He's face changed slightly, and he reprimanded him lightly, "You are too courageous."

Lin Jing smiled lightly, "I say this, sir may not believe it now. But this imperial envoy hinted to our general yesterday that his concubine has [-] bedrooms, and his mother's eighty birthday this year, His father's [-]th birthday. Such a greedy person, if he is 'watched' by Jiangnan, if he is not fed and he returns to Beijing, I'm afraid it will make us look good."

"You are so courageous..." Mr. He shook his head and sighed, it really is a new generation replacing the old.

Lin Jing said, "I'm only talking to my husband. If you can bear it, you can bear it. If you can't bear it, just tell me."
