The Bandit Gentleman of the Red Chamber

Although the border has never been peaceful, but this year the Tartars are particularly arrogant.Now there is even a prefect stationed in the border city who died in the city. After the news spread to the capital, all the officials and workers were panicked.

At today's court meeting, many generals have already invited to fight, among the princes, Prince Zhongheng also stood up and asked to go out.Most of the civil servants are peacemakers, but no one stands up at this time to say that they don’t care about the people who are out of the country, and the king convinces people with virtue—if they are caught by political opponents, they will be sent to the border. What about the unlucky prefect who lacks "convincing people with virtue"?

For the imperial court to order an official to die at the hands of foreigners is an insult to Dayong's national prestige.If you don't want to be a foolish king in the history books today, then you have to fight this battle if you don't want to.

Fighting wars is not something to talk about. Food, supplies, war horses... everything needs to be supported by money in the treasury.Emperor Yongzu started his family as an army, and even now the royal family is still bloody, and they have not encountered much resistance to fighting today.Over the years, the country has been peaceful and the people are safe, and a lot of money has been saved in the treasury, which is enough to support a war.But there is one thing that is difficult to buy with money.

Prince Zhongshun smiled and added the last touch to the brochure about the disease at the horse farm in Ping'an Prefecture, and said to his son: "My father and son have lived in Beijing for ten years, and they have been keeping a low profile for ten years. It's time to go back."

The son is a young man, his eyebrows are somewhat similar to that of Prince Zhongshun, and he has a kind of handsomeness unique to the Dayong royal family. At this time, he also said with a smile: "Father is very clever, there are not many sons." After finishing speaking, he sighed, " Before coming to Beijing, my son once planted a young pine tree in the courtyard, which was less than three feet away from fashion, but now it is probably Lingyun's capital."

When the son was 15 years old, he was kept in Beijing by the last imperial decree, and he couldn't leave even at 25 years old.If he could go back now, he would be full of lofty ambitions.

The father and son looked at each other with tacit ambition.

Longyan was furious when he saw Zhongshun's zhezi today, but besides Longyan's fury, there was nothing he could do about Prince Zhongshun, who was clearly playing a hooligan.

Prince Zhongshun of Ping'an Prefecture has been operating for many years, and it has long been monolithic. During the period, the folk customs were extremely aggressive, and even many civilians there only recognized the prince and did not recognize the emperor.Prince Zhongshun said that there was an epidemic at the horse farm in Pingan Prefecture, so even if the imperial envoys were sent to visit today, they would only get the same news.To get the war horses of Ping'an Prefecture, they had to put their prince back.

But if you want to let Zhongshun and his son go away, and let the tiger go back to the mountain, you are not so stupid today.

It would be great if there was a new source of war horses... So Imagami and the officials who have been used as a punching bag for several days by Imagami thought so.

------Dividing line------

After settling down the Wu family brothers and his party, and instructing everyone not to leave the mansion for a while, Lin Chen went to Lin Hai's study, first he told Xie Qing and others to do things outside, but he will sneak into the desert to find The affairs of other tribes are not mentioned, only that they are doing some fur reselling business.

Kneeling down again to plead guilty to Lin Hai, Fang said: "The two brothers sent out by my son are named Wu Gang and Wu Xiong, and now they tell my son that they lost their way in the desert, and they actually saw the Tartars in the depths of the desert! They It is said that the Tartars there are not only at odds with Luerqin and Tukecha, but also some of them are feuds! The son speaks lightly, and dare not preside over such important military and state affairs, so he told his father, and hoped that he would give his son some advice."

Who is Lin Hai, what did Lin Chen do with Prince Zhongdun all these years, would he have no idea?He even knew a lot about Lin Chen secretly hooking up with Jia Lian to intervene in Ping'an Prefecture, but he kept silent because he wanted to experience Lin Chen.

What he didn't expect was that Lin Chen's behavior, which was only regarded as a trivial matter in his eyes, turned out to be a big deal!

Lin Hai is in the cabinet now, how could he not know what is the most distressing thing in the world right now.This time, it doesn't matter if the horses are not available for the battle with the Tartars. The main combat force of Dayong has always been infantry.But if Zhongshun's team has been controlling the Ping'an State Racecourse and Dayong's supply of war horses has been unable to keep up, it will be dangerous.If the news that Lin Chen said is true, it means that he has made a great achievement!

He glanced at his son who was still kneeling on the spot, and after several thoughts in his mind, he finally said: "Get up and talk. Tell the father about this carefully."

Lin Chen agreed, stood up and showed Lin Hai the road map and other things brought back by the Wu family brothers, and said, "They also brought a few horses from those tribes, and my son also met. The bitter cold land The things that come out are not as tall as Da Wanju, but their endurance is also excellent."

Lin Hai saw that the picture contained a very detailed record. It marked the swamps, rivers, Gobi and oases in the deep desert one by one.He looked at the picture carefully for a while, and then said with a smile: "You are lucky, you can make these things out of nonsense."

Seeing that he was not angry, Lin Chen knew that he had escaped the catastrophe. He hurriedly made a bow to Lin Hai, and said with a smile: "My son also hit by mistake. I didn't expect those two boys to have such an adventure. It's just that How to deal with the matter of the brothers of the Wu family, the son thinks he is too young to do anything, Wanwang father will give him an idea."

Lin Hai stroked his beard lightly, and looked at Lin Chen with a smile: "I don't know what you think you are thinking?" Then he clicked on the blueprint, "This thing affects the national economy and the people's livelihood. It's a beautiful thing; if it's not handled properly, someone might catch it. Your father has been an official for many years, and safety is the top priority in everything. I would rather not have such a troublesome thing."

As he spoke, he also became serious, and changed into a lecturing tone: "You were born with some wisdom, and you have a famous person like Mr. Zhuang as your teacher, so you occasionally act out of line, and you have never been disciplined by your father. There is only one thing you should remember Stop it, our Lin family is established not on how many meritorious deeds, nor how much the emperor's heart is, but on the word 'safety'!"

The only son has been on good terms with Prince Zhongdun's mansion for these years, Lin Hai seems to be calm, but he is actually a little bit worried.Now that I have borrowed the matter from the brothers of the Wu family and said it out at once, it is also good to remind Lin Chen.As for Prince Zhongdun, it is his ability to win Konjo's favor after he got the blueprint, and he would not be able to fall on the head of the Lin family if he was splashed with dirty water!

Lin Chen and the queen Lin Hai seldom spoke harsh words to him, even less lessons after they got married. This time he was so solemn, Lin Chen also straightened his face, knelt down to answer solemnly, very earnestly Said: "The son and the prince are both young, and they work together in the household department. It's normal to have a good relationship. The son is not the kind of person who is eager for quick success, but he just makes friends with him because he admires Qiantose for being a man. There is absolutely no one who dare not have it." thought."

Seeing that he saw it so clearly, Lin Hai was also very relieved, and he hurriedly smiled and asked people to wake up, "It's good that you have a bottom line in your heart. You will still handle the affairs of the two brothers, and you will act on your own. And stand behind for the father!"

When Lin Chen left the study, he sighed first.

The ancestors of the Lin family were considered honorable, but when it was passed on to Lin Hai, there was only a small captain of light vehicles left, and when it was passed on to him, there was nothing left.At that time, if Lin Hai lets go and he is unable to stand up, then most of the Lin family's century-old foundation will be destroyed.Fortunately, I have been outstanding all these years, and Lin Hai can also see some hope for the future of the Lin family.However, it is a bit unscientific to expect the fame and wealth of the descendants to last for generations, not to mention the fact that the Lin family is really thin.

It is really difficult to develop in this kind of kinship society in ancient times.How could one or two outstanding children be born in a big family with a lot of children.And like the Lin family, Lin Hai can only count on Lin Chen, Lin Chen... At present, he really doesn't want to count on Gu Yanran's belly...

So for the current Lin family, the safest way is to get another title.But the title is so easy to get. Back then, the ancestors of the Lin family won a marquis after fighting the world with the Taizu. How could meritorious service in the peaceful years be so easy to earn?However, according to Lin Hai's current status, he will definitely be able to get a title in the future—the kind that follows a posthumous title, which is bestowed after death, and cannot be passed on to his descendants if he doesn't eat or wear properly.

This is why so many people know that there are tigers in the mountains but still covet a piece of merit from the dragon. What merit can be as great as helping the king succeed to the throne?As long as you bet on the right treasure, you can continue your wealth for decades, what a cheap deal!Ji Wen has become more and more successful in recent years, and when the authority has become more powerful, seeing him getting closer to Lin Chen, can Lin Hai not have his own plans in mind? !

It's just Lin Hai's concern, which Lin Chen knows very well - like many people, he still wants to look again and again, always thinking that the longer the planning time, the better his chances of winning.But by the time he finally made up his mind, the dust had already settled, and it could only be icing on the cake instead of sending charcoal in the snow...
