[Red Mansions] Lord Hou's daily routine

The magistrate of Yangzhou is actually not too late.

Yangzhou officials, big and small, were staggering drunk in the restaurant. When the news of the attack on the small house reached the restaurant, the magistrate Yang was more than half sober.

Mr. Yang, who was covered in cold sweat, hurried over with the official envoy. On the way, Mr. Yang was worried. This incident happened just one day after the imperial envoy came to Yangzhou. It was all due to his dereliction of duty as the magistrate.

The small house was attacked, and I heard that the second master Lian of Jia's mansion and Miss Lin were frightened, so how should he explain this to the Rongguo Mansion?Mr. Yang was so worried that he kept pleading guilty when he saw Lin Jian, and he was so sweaty that his clothes were drenched with sweat, but he didn't even care about it.

Lin Jian saw it funny, called Master Yang to get up, and comforted him kindly: "Don't worry, my lord, the killers have all been killed by my people, the second son of Lian is fine, and Miss Lin is fine. I have already visited them. It's just that both of you are a little stimulated and need to rest, so Master Yang doesn't have to go there."

When Zhifu Yang stood up, he was still in a daze. He responded to what Lin Jian said. When Lin Jian led him to the stables in the outer courtyard, Mr. Yang was really shocked by the scene in front of him.

Lin Jian smiled coldly and wickedly: "My lord, my people saved people and dealt with the scene, but they don't care about disposing of these corpses. Besides, the method of disposing of corpses on the battlefield is not easy to use here. My lord is Yangzhou Magistrate, these matters should be dealt with by adults, so please send officials to take these corpses away and pile them here, lest people who have nothing to do with them will be frightened. In addition, this small house is not very safe, and adults should also More officials should be sent here to patrol and guard, sir, you don’t want something like this to happen again, do you?”

It was Lin Jian's idea that the guards of the Lin family piled up the corpses of those killers in the vacant stable.

Lin Jian killed people and directed a scene for them. He was too lazy to clean up the last mess. He wanted to scare Yangzhou officials, so he piled up the corpses of a dozen killers here. .

This Mr. Yang has been in the rich and prosperous Jiangnan for a long time on the ground of Yangzhou, where singing and dancing are peaceful, how has he seen such a battle?Seeing the bloody pile of corpses made his legs go limp in fright, and smelling the strong smell of blood, the voice of Commander Yang sending over to carry the corpses trembled.

In the end, the corpses were taken away, and when Zhifu Yang returned to the main hall to look for Lin Jian, he remembered to ask Lin Jian.

"There was a sudden attack on this place tonight, how could Master Hou be here? Did Master Hou know in advance that something would happen tonight?"

"Me?" Lin Jian smiled casually, "Of course I have my source of information."

Lin Jian didn't intend to talk to Yang Zhifu about this, he took out the small light blue bag that he had prepared earlier with a smile, patted it in front of Yang Zhifu, and said with a meaningful smile, "To tell you the truth, Mr. Yang, I am here This place has obtained the account book that Lin Yushi lost."

"Master Yang, don't worry about how I got it. It's not important. The important thing is that we can trace the deficit according to the personnel records recorded in this account book in the future."

When he said this, Lin Jian had been observing Yang Zhifu's reaction intently. Seeing that Yang Zhifu wanted to ask something as soon as he heard his words, Lin Jian didn't give him a chance to speak. When Lin Jian finished speaking, he saw Yang Zhifu His face was visibly more flustered and paler.

Hearing Lin Jian said that he had obtained the ledger, Zhifu Yang really didn't bother to ask Lin Jian where he got the ledger.

After Lin Jian threw out this heavy news, he smiled after seeing the reaction of the prefect Yang, pretending not to see the abnormality of the prefect Yang, and still said with a smile: "I came to Yangzhou to investigate the case, and since I arrived in Yangzhou In terms of land boundaries, I have to visit Mr. Wang, the inspector of the two provinces. When Mr. Yang is free, why not accompany me to the provincial government office in two days?"

He is just inspecting one area in Yangzhou. According to his rank, his grade is lower than that of Wang Ziteng. When he comes to investigate the case in his territory, he should pay a visit.

"Well," Yang Zhifu wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, "I dare not lie to Lord Hou. Mr. Wang went to Quzhou a month ago. There was an unsolved case over there, and the local officials were still unsolved. Mr. Wang went there in person." The trial is over there."

Lin Jian clicked his tongue. When he was on the way to Yangzhou, he received news that Wang Ziteng was not in Yangzhou. He did not expect to walk on the road for a month. When he arrived in Yangzhou, Wang Ziteng was still not there.

Wang Ziteng has been hiding here for a long time.Could it be that he still plans to hide until the case is closed before returning to Yangzhou?

Lin Jian was not in the mood to take care of Wang Ziteng right now, so he simply put this section aside, and took his people away after asking the magistrate Yang.He has made arrangements for Xiaozhaizi's affairs, and he can rest assured that there will be officials sent by the prefect Yang to take care of the aftermath.

Back at the residence of the government office, Zhao Yuan and the others, who were so drunk and staggered, were also sobered up by the news of the attack on the small house. Zhao Yuan got up and searched for Lin Jian but couldn't find it. Lin Jian came back when a group of people were in a hurry , everyone rushed to meet Lin Jian and asked where Lin Jian was going and if he was okay.

Lin Jian did the same, and explained a few words to everyone, and then told everyone that he found the account book, and after taking a full view of everyone's reactions, he said with a smile: "Okay, the small house has been protected by officials, you just leave if you have nothing to do." Well, there are still things to do tomorrow, hurry up and take the time to rest."

Everyone had different expressions, but they all dispersed as they said. Only Zhao Yuan didn't leave. He expected Ai Ai to wait until everyone had left before he came to Lin Jian and asked him in a low voice: "Master Hou, since the account books have been recovered, how can I help you?" Should we start chasing the shortfall first? Should we postpone the matter of asking the general merchants for military pay?"

Lin Jian glanced at him lightly, and said with a smile: "No. According to the original plan, first ask the general merchants to ask for the military salary. The matter of recovering the deficit will be postponed for a few days. Now that the account book is back, I won't run away. Let's see it first."

Zhao Yuan got an order from Xiao Yu that he must fully cooperate with Lin Jian's decision-making, so even though he couldn't understand Lin Jian's mind at all, he nodded in response to Lin Jian's words.

After Zhao Yuan left, Lin Jian had time to go back to his residence.

He had been busy all day today, and he didn't even have time to wash his face. His underwear was drenched with sweat, and the clothes were stained with the smell of blood in addition to the smell of alcohol. This was unbearable for Lin Jian who loves cleanliness. It was very late, Lin Jian still felt that he should take a good bath, and squint on the bed for a while after washing.

He also had personal guards in the army, but he was used to doing things by himself. Now that he was out of southern Anhui, he didn't bring out his personal guards, so he didn't bother others, and he prepared a hot tub to take a bath.

All the guards of the Lin family were sent to rest by Lin Jian, only one guard surnamed Qian stayed.Seeing that Lin Jian had prepared hot water, he took the initiative to come over to help Lin Jian carry the tub and sweat towel. He was extremely thoughtful and attentive.

The guard surnamed Qian was the oldest among the ten people, and his temperament was relatively stable, so he became the leading guard among the ten people. However, he was still a few months younger than Lin Jian, just because he had a beard and looked It seems that he is several years older than Lin Jian.

Qian Huwei helped Lin Jian do this and that, Lin Jian didn't stop him, but just watched with a half-smile. After Qian Huwei finished everything, Lin Jian took off his clothes slowly, slowly revealing his broad shoulders and narrow A good figure with a waist, and then with long legs/legs, one step into the steaming bathtub.

"Xiaoqian, if you have anything you want to ask, just ask. I've already seen that you have something to say."

Qian Ying needed to handle many things on his journey. Compared with Zhao Yuan and others, the guards of the Lin family, especially Qian Ying, knew the most.

Qian Ying pursed her lips: "You can't hide anything from the young master's eyes. My subordinate, my subordinate is really puzzled."

"The account books on the young master are fake. It may be perfunctory now, but what should we do in the future? Not only can we not find the whereabouts of the real account books, but even the entire Yangzhou city does not know the whereabouts of the real account books. The young master said Said that the account books have been found, the subordinates can understand the young master's approach, but if this happens, the situation will become even more chaotic. The subordinates are afraid that someone will take advantage of the troubled waters to harm the young master."

Qian Ying was afraid that some people in Yangzhou City would jump over the wall in a hurry, and that ten of them alone would not be able to protect Lin Jian in this dragon pool and tiger den.

"chaos?"

Lin Jian smiled, "I just want Yangzhou to become chaotic. The more chaotic Yangzhou is, the more useful the news I release will be. At that time, people who should hear the news will not be able to hear the news. The real account book will appear. As for some people taking advantage of troubled waters to make small moves, can't we also make some small moves!"

Lin Jian casually splashed water on his body, "The patrol inspectors in these two provinces dared to hire killers in private, so where can this Yangzhou go in chaos? Xiaoqian, don't worry, go back and rest. Just follow my orders Just make arrangements/things."

As the saying goes, one movement and one stillness, one emptiness and one reality, and one relaxation and one relaxation, can be invincible.

Without the real account books, he would not be able to recover the shortfall. He set up this bureau, one for Lin Daiyu, the other for eliciting the real account books, and the third for making Yangzhou officials feel uneasy day and night.

Yangzhou officials, big and small, were deeply involved in the deficit, and all of them were afraid of being chased. As soon as he came, he asked the general merchants for military pay and repayment. merchants.

The general merchants colluded with the local officials, and they must be devastated by the matter of paying the military salary.

It doesn't matter if Wang Ziteng doesn't come back. If he doesn't come back, Lin Jian is just stirring up the situation in Yangzhou City. If there is any movement outside, he should calm down and wait for the real account book to come out by himself, and then deliver it to his door.

Lin Jian wished that the bigger the noise, the better. The bigger the noise, the faster the real account book would appear.

He really didn't know the whereabouts of the real account book, but he knew why the real account book disappeared, and he knew why the real account book would reappear.
