[Red Mansion] I want to be the chief assistant

There is nothing new in the imperial decree, it is to give Lin Yu additional ranks and award Dr. Zhongshun.This comes with an extra salary of a casual rank, which is basically of no real use.At most, it looks good on the surface, and it is too far behind when Wang Ziteng was promoted from the control of the nine provinces to the admiral of the nine provinces because of cowpox.

The only thing that made Lin Yu a little bit more gratified was that he was transferred to be the magistrate of Guangzhou Prefecture as he wished.

After sending the angel back, Lin Yu watched the people remove the incense table, and casually stuffed the imperial decree woven with brocade and black horn shaft into the hand of Liu Qiuchi beside him.Liu Qiuchi was taken aback by him, and looked around to see if no one was paying attention to this place, so he put on a respectful look and followed Lin Yu back to the inner courtyard with the imperial decree in his hands.

"You can't ask people to say a crime of disrespect." Liu Qiuchi complained, not because he was so respectful to the imperial decree, but because he was worried that Lin Yu's deeds would be seen by them, so he read a book.

Lin Yu looked indifferent, and Bai Ling behind him smiled secretly and took the hot potato. Seeing this, there was a lot of curiosity, but not much respect.

"There is a serious shortage of people in Dongfan. I just don't know who will be the next magistrate of Xinghua?" Lin Yu has been thinking about this issue for a while, and Zheng Shao said that if he let go, he really let go.After a rebellion, there were many vacancies, and these positions were filled by his people, but he couldn't find a suitable one for a while, "What do you say?"

Liu Qiuchi thought for a while, and said: "I'm thinking of going to Dongfan, but you're right, it's hard to say what kind of temperament the next magistrate of Xinghua Prefecture will have. We can't call him bad. We are in Xinghua Prefecture The arrangement." He asked again, "Isn't there your confidant over there who is dealing with affairs, and Nie Huan can use it after teaching for a while, why is it inappropriate?"

How is it suitable? Lin Yu believes that these people will not have any problems handling official business, but what he needs is someone who can grasp the overall situation and even hold up the sky at critical moments.From his point of view, neither Xin Zongping nor Liu Qiuchi in front of him is actually not qualified.His eyes turned around Liu Qiuchi's body, and suddenly he remembered a person.

Liu Qiuchi inexplicably felt that Lin Yu looked at him as if he saw a suitable partner, and quickly waved his hands and said, "I can't." It's not that he doesn't want to be alone, but people have self-knowledge, and he is still tender in this regard .

"I didn't mention you." Liu Qiuchi breathed a sigh of relief, before he could feel the loss in his heart, he heard Lin Yu say, "What do you think, Master Bai?"

Master Bai refused in his heart.

"I have a good stay in Diaoyutai. There are new things to see every day, and there are people who can discuss numerology with me. Why should I ask for trouble." Facing the advance notification letter sent by Liu Qiuchi, Master Bai was very excited. He is not stupid, no matter what method that kid used to win the whole Dongfan, I am afraid that there will be more things in the future. Why does he not stay in the Diaoyutai like a paradise, but insists on finding something for himself? .

However, before he could take up his pen to refuse, a boy came to report outside, saying that the uncle had come.

Bai Daru glared and instantly 'betrayed' the little boy he opened the door to Lin Yu, and got a proud baring of his teeth.He wasn't really angry, he was just teasing the kids.

"Go and play." Lin Yu touched the little boy's soft head, and watched him blushing shyly and smearing oil on the soles of his feet as he ran out of sight. Then he faced Bai Daru and said, "Master Bai is so happy gone?"

Seeing Lin Yu, who didn't need to entertain himself, found a place to sit down quite comfortably, and poured a cup of tea, Bai Daru held his breath in his chest, and it was useless to stare at him for a while.He pushed his cup over angrily, and asked, "You made a lot of noise in Dongfan a while ago!"

Lin Yu picked up the teapot and filled it up for him in a good-tempered manner, and said, "It seems that the work of the earthly branch is not very qualified, and the news has leaked."

"Don't talk about earthly branches, didn't you tell the people on this island purposely?" Bai Daru carefully looked at Lin Yu's face, and saw that the darkness and ambiguity he saw last time had all faded away, so he took a sip Poor, as if casually asked, "Have you figured it out?"

Lin Yu chuckled happily and said, "I can't hide it from you." He put down the cup in his hand and said, "So, are you willing to take charge of Dongfan for me? Of course, if you like math, I can Let the Earthly Branch send letters to you and Mr. Dai every day."

Just now, Bai Daru was a little relieved and choked to death by these words. He glared at Lin Yu and said, "You really don't let go of anything that can be squeezed. It's a good idea!" He took a breath and saw him smiling. Knowing that he was just joking, he said, "Since you can trust the old man, how about I guard the rear for you?"

Lin Yu raised his glass and drank tea instead of wine to show his gratitude.

"However, the old man is a little curious. What made you make up your mind?" It was less than two months since the last time they met. Before that, Lin Yu clearly thought of Mr. Xu, so why did he become so suddenly? rebelled.You know, if it is other aspects, it takes two months to figure it out, which is stupid.But this is a rebellion after all, even going overseas to establish a country is easier than it sounds, "Are you sure, do you want to restart the war?"

He didn't use any words against Jing Fuming, because he knew that Lin Yuzhi was not here.

"No matter what." Lin Yu's expression was very hard | "As long as the royal family is here, they will not tolerate this country growing." For their dominance, they will do whatever it takes.

Just like that famous saying, Ning and Youbang are not slaves.

The 'house slaves' will overthrow their rule, but the 'friends' will not. This is probably the most obvious fact in the entire royal family, but he didn't see it through at the beginning, fortunately it is not too late now.

His character of being more prepared for everything played a very positive role in this regard.

Bai Daru nodded, and asked again: "How did you find out about this?" It took him most of his life to travel thousands of mountains and rivers before he was shocked to realize this fact.It has to be said that when he was young, he also had expectations for this royal family.But the young man in front of him just spent a few months waking up. It seems that this dynasty is destined to end in his hands.

"I am ashamed to say that I have always known that famines have occurred every year and even twice this year since this dynasty." But he ignored this because of the arrogance of later generations, otherwise he would surely wake up early and be able to do it. There must be more than now. "Potatoes like shade, and the yield is several times higher than other grains. There are a lot of unclaimed land in the north. As long as they have the slightest concern, there will not be so many famines and so many dead people."

"I went to the north ten years ago, and the farmers there planted this, but they didn't dare to grow more. Planting a little in their yard every year can prevent famine." The corner of Bai Daru's mouth pulled a mocking smile, "Then At that time, I knew what kind of face the royal family of this dynasty is." On the surface, they are good-looking, and their hearts are Sinology, but internally they have never forgotten their traditions, and they have not given up the iron law that Manchus and Hans do not marry.

Later, he traveled all over the country, and finally saw a glimmer of hope in Xinghua Mansion.He knew that Lin Yu was hesitating, but he was also sure that he would not hesitate for too long.

Sure enough, he didn't make him wait long, Bai Daru thought with satisfaction, maybe he can see the appearance of returning to the prosperous age in his lifetime.

"Then let's go." Lin Yu got up and said, "I won't be in Dongfan for a long time. I still have a little time to tell you about the official affairs there when I go back to Xinghua Mansion." Everything must be handed over. Only then can he go to Guangzhou Mansion to take office with peace of mind, and there is still a difficult battle waiting for him there!

"However, you should prepare someone to take over as soon as possible." Bai Daru dug out the sword he carried with him from the house, and said, "The old man is impatient to keep doing this kind of work."

"Please rest assured, when Xinghua Mansion settles down, I will send someone to bring Liu Qiuchi here. He is your student, and it will be easy for you to bring him out." Lin Yu's abacus was crackling, "But The entire rear is stable, so you still need to worry about it."

"It's natural." Bai Daru listened to Lin Yu's talk about the agreement with the Zheng family, especially Zheng Shao, etc. for more than a year, and after knowing it, he became concerned about another matter, "Sooner or later, the matter of Dongfan will not be hidden." Yes, Zheng Shao's complete letting go now also means forcing you to tie up the Dongfan boat as soon as possible. Your manpower in the capital needs to be arranged as soon as possible. Also, do the Chang family and the Lin family need to be notified? "

Lin Yu nodded, deeply feeling how easy it is to have such a see-through person help.For a long time, he has been controlling the entire power alone, and now with Dongfan, even he can't do it with ease.At this time, there is a need for someone who can make suggestions and fill in the gaps for him. If there is no accident, this person is the great scholar in front of him.

"No need for now." Lin Yu's answer at this time seemed a little cold, after all, both the Chang family and Lin Ruhai had done their best to him.However, Bai Daru appreciates this determination very much, and those who achieve great things do not care about small things.

Lin Yu glanced at him, knowing that the old man was thinking too much, and didn't explain too much. His non-information was based on the fact that he dared to guarantee the lives of the two families.However, even so, it is almost doomed that people related to this will be unlucky.For example, the Jia family, when the time comes, he will find a way to try to give them a chance to survive, if they can survive until then.

Earlier, due to the opening of Guangzhou as a port, there was a letter from the capital that time.Because he and Lin Ruhai got a little closer, and both seemed very unusual, so Chenlong added a few more words.

The woman in the tomb of Ningfu died, and she enjoyed the sacrifice very much.Jia Yuanchun granted Fengzao Palace Shangshu and concubine Xiande.

"The eldest girl of our family just chose Fengzao Palace Shangshu and named Xiande Concubine." After everyone Lai reported the good news to Jia Min, Jia Min, who had just set up a passing sacrifice for Qin Keqing, felt something was wrong almost instantly. , she sent off her natal family with a smile on her face, and when Lin Ruhai came back, she asked, "What do you mean, Fengzao Palace Shangshu, Jiafeng Xiande Concubine, how does it sound..." It seems like a posthumous title used by dead people , which concubine was titled with two characters during her lifetime.

Lin Ruhai didn't know what his wife was thinking, so he patted her hand reassuringly, and said, "This is the shortfall from last year." But I didn't listen to it at the time.

"Then there's no other way?" Jia Min thought of her natal family's complacency, and said in a low voice, "This title is too cruel."

Lin Ruhai shook his head, and said: "The imperial decree has already been issued, and now the concubine who has decided to visit relatives has already started looking for craftsmen." Because this matter involved the harem, he knew it too late, even Chang Kemin didn't do it in time get a message.

Jia Min's face turned blue when he heard it, and he felt sorry for that flower-like girl, but couldn't speak.

After waiting for a period of time, I saw that Jia's mansion and other concubines and concubines' natal families had a steady stream of money flowing out like water.Now that Jia's family doesn't have the 'two or three million fortune', Mrs. Wang has to carry out her dowry while feeling distressed, and coax Wang Xifeng to give out the money together, not to mention the money from the public, which has long been available. Lifted them all out.

Jia Lian often hangs around outside now, so he has more knowledge than before.Seeing Jia's mother acquiesce, almost evacuating the Rongguo Mansion for this family visit, his father didn't care about it, and his stupid wife even spent his own dowry, I felt chills in my heart.He secretly rejoiced that Lin Yu gave him a share at the beginning, so that he wouldn't be able to afford food in the future.He even tightly held on to this private property, and without Jia Min's instructions, quietly handed over the private money he had saved over the years to her for collection.

Jia Min felt sorry for his nephew who was not asked, and saw that he kept the money for himself without saying a word, and said: "You have such a heart, I think it is because you know that this time is unusual. There is nothing you can do in the palace, you You have to take good care of yourself, have you taken good care of your famous posts all these years?"

Jia Lian nodded and said, "My nephew doesn't want to ask what the family thinks, but just one sentence, how long can I last?"

"It's okay when my mother is here." Jia Min sighed, feeling very sad, and said, "Don't blame her, she knows it in her heart, and she probably regrets it a lot. Perhaps, this time, Jia's family spent all their money. For the sake of making up for the shortfall, it’s unknown if we let it go.”

Jia Lian was silent for a while, bowed down and saluted respectfully, and said, "Thanks to my aunt."

Jia Min hurriedly supported him, paused for a while, and said: "If you have the heart, you can spend some money to find a job in another place after the family visit. Tell your mother this quietly and listen to what she has to say." of."

Just like what Jia Min said, Mother Jia felt pain and regret in her heart, and she had to put on a smiling face in front of people, watching the money flowing out of the house like water, which was too slow.Those who don't know say it's a happy event, and she's very proud inside and out. Only she knows in her heart, what kind of happy event is it?

Doing this event is the same as the funeral affairs that have just been completed in the mansion next door. This is a funeral!

When Jia Lian took a chance and quietly explained Jia Min's meaning, Jia's mother understood, and said: "It's still my Min'er who can see clearly and think far. I'm old, and I can't protect you for a long time. As your aunt said, let's go! Your daughter-in-law looks shrewd, but she is a fool, but she is really distracted by you. If you have a heart, Lian'er, take her with you. "

Jia Lian looked at the powerless and aging appearance of this old ancestor whom he had always complained about being biased, and his heart was very troubled, and he whispered: "The grandson knows."

Mother Jia nodded in relief, handed him a small box that had been prepared, and said: "I haven't given you anything good these years. Here is a silver note of 10 taels. Eighty thousand is yours. The other twenty thousand is yours. You keep it for Baoyu, and in case that day comes, for your brother's sake, don't let him die." Seeing Jia Lian taking it silently, she said with tears in her eyes, "While it was a year ago, I will still be grand. Yang Yang, I'm not exhausted yet, so I'll ask you to take out a sum of money and send you some commission fees. I'll also ask you to take your daughter-in-law to send a letter to her uncle, and find a place farther away. I'll see , Xinghua is pretty good, don’t come back when you go.”

Xinghua, where is Brother Yu?Jia Lian looked at Jia Mu in surprise, and saw her leaning on the couch, smiling weakly, and said: "Your ancestors were confused, but these eyes are not blind, and they still have some vision. That's a If there is something you can do, I dare not ask him to stretch out his hand, it should be easy to save you." She closed her eyes wearily as she spoke.

Sure enough, Jia Min agreed with Jia's mother's arrangement, so she told Lin Ruhai.

"Brother Yu has complained several times that there are not enough manpower. Although Lian'er can't study well, she can do a little bit in general affairs. Brother Yu can only be happy if he goes." Lin Ruhai stroked his beard and said, "That's right. It’s hard to say that this donated official, he doesn’t have any fame, so he’s also a co-author now, right?”

Jia Min nodded and said: "That's right, I used the name of a fellow acquaintance for the sake of looking good when I got married." This is a common thing in rich families. Nowadays, selling officials and nobles is prevalent, and the status of an official is more important than before. Not worth much.

"He is a nominal fifth-rank co-instructor. It is impossible to go further directly, but it is easy to turn this five-rank co-instructor into a real job." Lin Ruhai hated selling officials and nobles, and he himself has never been involved in this.However, he doesn't touch it, and some people make money from it.He still knows how to operate it. After all, he is the left servant of the household department, and the right servant is in charge of putting this part of the money into the national treasury and the emperor's internal treasury.

"Master, you don't need to do this, the Wang family will figure out a way anyway." Now that Jia Min knew about it, he stopped caring, and asked, "However, brother Yu's term is coming to an end, can't he let go of Xinghua? "

"It's common to be unable to let it go. After all, it's so hard to take care of it so well. If Hulabala goes to someone who doesn't do anything, he will be pissed off." Lin Ruhai didn't say much, just said, "Speaking of it, there is a It’s a good thing. It has been decided by the superiors that Brother Ren Yu will be the prefect of Guangzhou Prefecture, and he will be appointed as the fourth-rank doctor Zhongshun. The imperial edict has been drawn up and will be sent to Xinghua.”

I don't know if Brother Yu is still in Xinghua at this time, but Lin Ruhai, who knew that he and Dongfan got mixed up, was worried and tried to send a message to Zuixianlou.

"That's all." Jia Min felt sorry for Lin Yu, and for such a big matter, he replaced Dr. Zhongshun in name only. Who is he fooling?But there is one thing she has to care about, "After the year, brother Yu will be seventeen, and one term will last three years. The rest of the six ceremonies should also go away? There is no need to drag other girls up, often The family must not look good."

"That's very true." For a period of time, he had been frightened by the news from Xinghua for several days, and he had completely forgotten about this incident.He looked at his wife and said, "I'll write to brother Yu right now."

"What are you asking?" Jia Min said quickly, "Before he left, he entrusted all those things to me. I'll ask someone to start the ceremony first. Brother Yu, you can just tell him and he will know."

Lin Ruhai, who had nothing to say about these matters, could only nod silently.

This kind of thing really has nothing to do with their men. Jia Min and the female members of the Chang family had passed the gas earlier. Lin Ruhai and Chang Kemin drank tea in silence on the day when Najib was formally announced. The two spent a lot of money for the position of the governor of Guangzhou Xinli, at this time, take advantage of this opportunity to sit together openly and have a good chat.

"It's finally quieter over there." Chang Kemin | sighed, he was used to the news from Xinghua Mansion all at once, and the other thing at a while, he often had to meet and discuss with Lin Ruhai in the middle of the night.Where is it like now, don't worry about the moths that Lin Huaijin makes up from time to time, just drink a cup of tea quietly and chat about something lighter.

Lin Ruhai nodded in agreement, and said, "That's exactly what I said." He lowered his head, looked at the clear tea, hesitated, and said, "However, I'm too quiet, and I always feel uneasy."

When Chang Kemin heard it, he felt the same: "No, it's quiet, but I feel that something is wrong." Shaking his head and letting go of this topic, he smiled, "If you want to do what he wants, you can do it wherever you want." It’s such a coincidence that he put everything up. Drink tea, drink tea.”

However, after Najib finished, the two of them sent a letter at the same time, and they were completely relieved when they got a reply saying that everything was fine.

Everything is fine?This is indeed true, but it's just because Lin Yu has finished a big one and is now in the calm before brewing the next one.

Just like Master Bai reminded, it is impossible to hide Dong Fan's changes for a long time, unless he seals Dong Fan up.However, this would go against his original intention of development, and it was extremely unrealistic.

If it was a different person, with all the officials corrupt and the whole social environment bad, the people above didn't care about the famines that happened year after year, so they didn't care about other things.

But Lin Yu never dared to underestimate what a ruling class can do for their own status. They are both stupid and ruthless.But.As the saying goes, how can you allow others to snore and sleep on the side of the couch. These people already regard Dongfan as a thorn in their side, and they can only hide it for a while.

Subjectively, Lin Yu hoped that the three years in Guangzhou Mansion would allow him to make more adequate preparations.However, objectively, he had to consider the possibility of being discovered in advance.

Therefore, when Lin Yu received the official document from the Ministry of Officials that came with the imperial decree, Lin Yu thought about it and sent a local branch back to Gusu to station.The plan couldn't keep up with the changes. Huangshi's original arrangement was sufficient, but as his purpose changed, such an arrangement was obviously not enough.

If possible, he also planned to send several teams to guard Gusu quietly.One is for the people who are still in Zhuangzi. They are all relatives of people who are now living in Diaoyutai or Beizhou. In his life, disappearing all of a sudden would be suspicious, so he stayed. He couldn't chill the hearts of the soldiers.

Secondly, if there are enough manpower, once he raises an issue in Dongfan, he will be able to make a fortune first. The entire Fujian province is in his pocket, and Gusu can also echo him. The coastal provinces of Guangdong, Fujian and Zhejiang can be connected together.If the speed is faster, it is not difficult to go directly to Yingtianfu given the distance between Gusu and Jinling.

This was only a preliminary plan, but after talking with Master Bai and Zheng Shao, he felt that it was highly feasible.

Zheng Shao touched the map and sighed lowly: "Father's Northern Expedition was such a route, except for Guangdong." he."

Lin Yu nodded and said, "It won't be long."

He made a promise. Now that Dongning Mansion has Bai Daru in charge, and Beizhou has Huangshi watching, he simply moved the weapon manufacturing there.Diaoyutai only cares about research and development, and it is suitable for hiding there, so there is no need to send sailors to guard it with great fanfare.As long as Huang Zhong leads a few teams, it is enough to protect.

The production of weapons is already on the right track, just like what Lin Yu said before, it's not just a joke.Bai Daru helped Mr. Dai to calculate together, which indeed accelerated the development of weapons.What's more, the most critical inspiration has been provided by Lin Yu.

"Within one year, at least all Chinese troops must be equipped with the latest rifles and use them proficiently." Lin Yu walked in the government office and explained to Zhang Zhong about the issue of military equipment, "The navy is different from the army. How do you feel fitting in?"

"For the time being, it's just an ordinary first-class training. It will take some time to train elite soldiers." Zhang Zhong probably has some talent in military training, and he didn't spend much time to adapt to the rhythm of the navy. Found a training method suitable for those Zheng's soldiers.Although the soldiers from Lin Yu's Zhuangzi were superior in martial arts and bravery, they were not comparable to others in cunning, and the navy still needed to learn.

Zhang Zhong also had an account in his heart, he couldn't let his subordinates completely understand the navy, after all, in the master's plan, the navy would play a considerable part of its strength to assist the army's march.

It cannot be said that a whole branch of arms is controlled by the soldiers of the original Zheng family.

"That's fine." Seeing that everything on the carriage outside was ready, Lin Yu patted the big man who had been guarding him since he was a child, and said, "It's up to you in the future."

Zhang Zhong solemnly performed a military salute and said, "Your subordinates will not disgrace your orders."

According to common sense, at the end of an official term, the imperial court will give officials a certain amount of time to let them go home to participate in important activities such as ancestor worship.However, Lin Yu didn't care about the countryside.In other words, the rural land he recognized needs to be created by himself.

Three years later, he only ordered the people from Gusu to bring Old Butler Lin's family to Guangzhou Mansion, and he never thought of going back by himself.Furthermore, it was indeed a long journey, and he didn't want to waste time on the road.

After he handed over the affairs of Xinghua Mansion, Lin Yu left the first place where he worked under the reluctant send-off of the people of Xinghua Mansion.Speaking of which, the new prefect of Xinghua prefecture was still an old acquaintance, that is, the former prefect of Fuzhou prefecture, who was tricked by Lin Yu and had no choice but to return to his own place.

Lin Yu remembered that this person was timid and could do nothing.This time, from the upper mansion of Fuzhou to the lower mansion of Xinghua, which only has two counties, it can be regarded as a move to the left, but the rank is still retained.

In this handover, this person didn't even dare to express any dissatisfaction, facing Lin Yu who was promoted and appointed, he was very polite.That's right, when he was cheated, he didn't dare to say anything, let alone now.

He sent Lin Yu off respectfully, and he was relieved.Who knows, things are not as beautiful as he thought.

The affairs of the government are all clearly divided and handled by the scholars from the foreign class. The yamen servants are newly recruited, and they are willing to do any trivial matters, but they will push one by one for sensitive things. Faster than eels.

Everyone in the government office is respectful to him on the surface, but the magistrate feels that he has been emptied, and the most important thing he can do every day is to stamp his seal.He has no rights at all, let alone earning any money, and he can't even see Ku Yin with the official seal.

But when he was angry and sent a memorial to sue the disrespectful officials of the Xinghua Mansion, there was no reply at all.

And this magistrate only had such courage once.

When Lin Yu received the news in Guangzhou Mansion, he couldn't help laughing at Bai Shu, who was serving beside him: "I didn't expect that Second Brother Lian would give full play to his strengths in eating, drinking and having fun, and coax people so hard to find him." Not long after leaving, Jia Lian came to Xinghua Mansion with his family to take office, although it was a pity that he couldn't meet Lin Yu.But he soon became a duck to water among that class of scholars.

Liu Qiuchi saw that he was very talented in dancing, so he handed over the magistrate who was always looking for trouble.Sure enough, with the cooperation of Chou Niu, the magistrate soon became obsessed with playing cards with three or four businessmen every now and then. Life.

On this point, even Liu Qiuchi admired Jia Lian, it was rare that he handled common affairs well and was kind to others.

When Bai Shu heard this, he laughed and said, "I don't know if the grape shelf in Lian Erye's yard has fallen?" This means that Wang Xifeng is very jealous.

"It's time for him to calm down." Lin Yu chuckled and said, "It doesn't matter if he's in Xinghua Mansion now, but I guess Jia's Mansion has only been around for the past two years."

He still has a little understanding of today's temperament. It is true to love face, but he can really spare no effort for money.It's true that none of the civil and military officials in the Manchu Dynasty can see what the farce of visiting relatives is for?Even if they didn't know at the beginning, after knowing where the wood, stone, brick, tiles, rockery gardens, antique calligraphy and paintings, etc. purchased by various families came from, they would silently press down on the shops in their hands, and would not try to earn money from the emperor. There's a deal.

After doing such a thing, would he really let these people go.Conviction is almost certain, but as long as you don't die, such as accepting property that should have been confiscated without authorization, the crime may not be particularly serious.

Maybe it can save the lives of the whole family.

At that time, Jia Lian's official position will definitely be lost. However, he has some talents in business, so he is not worried.The real trouble is Wang Ziteng's side.

The four families of King Jia Shixue were all prosperous and all were damaged. If the Jia family is to be moved today, it is bound to start with Wang Ziteng.Since Wang Ziteng left Xinghua Mansion the year before last, he has been patrolling the border, and they haven't had much contact in the past two years.

He didn't think a sugar business could tie Wang Ziteng, but a mature general who had just toured several provinces and had been in the army for a long time was worth enough for Lin Yu to consider whether to save him.However, Lin Yu could almost smell Wang Ziteng's ambition when he was in Xinghua Mansion.It is because this person is too powerful, if he really pulls out the flag of rebellion, Lin Yu has to guard against whether he will put a cold arrow in his back.

Therefore, this is a double-edged sword. Whether it can be used, or whether it can be used well, still needs careful consideration.

Lin Yu thought for a while, and ordered Zishu to send a letter to Su Mu.Just two months ago, Su Mu, who came back from outside the Great Wall, took the initiative to send a message to Chenlong and resumed contact.He has now been promoted to a hundred households, which is very fast for his age. Naturally, Wang Ziteng also takes care of him.According to the current military system, Su Mu was temporarily seconded from Wang Ziteng's subordinates, and when he returned from the expedition, he would naturally be transferred back again.

However, when he went back, it was impossible for him to bring back all his subordinates.In the end, there were only a dozen confidants who followed him back to Wang Ziteng's side, and the names of hundreds of households were in name only.

This made it easier for Lin Yu to transfer one of the Earthly Branches, and with Su Mu mixed into Wang Ziteng's army, he was a new face anyway.When Su Mu's subordinates became familiar in the army, no one mentioned the origin of the earthly branch.

After arranging the trivial matters here, Lin Yu opened the letter from Beijing.The thin letter didn't say much, and there was only one central idea: it's time to get married when you are old, and the date has already been set.It was really like what he had completely handed over to Jia Min back then, he didn't have to worry about anything.

Just wait to welcome the bride, Jia Min said on the letter.
