Lord of the House

Vol 3 Chapter 115: Borrow a knife to kill

It has been more than 200 years since the Dayue Dynasty has been recruiting scholars for imperial examinations, and it has gone astray. The selected scholars may have studied the Four Books and Five Classics, poetry, calligraphy and painting, and there may be some romantic and suave people. Lack of practical talents. Of course, there are also really talented people, such as Li Zhuo, Shen Rong, Dong Yuan, Gao Zongting, etc. Gu Wuchen should also be considered capable and talented, but these people are too big compared to the entire huge bureaucratic system of Yue Dynasty. Rare.

Xia Cao's strategy, Lin Fu guessed that Li Zhuo and Gao Zongting also thought of it, but don't think that Li Zhuo's power is higher, but Li Zhuo wants to propose this strategy, but it is not as useful as his little ninth-rank scholar. Li Zhuo's power will be limited to the maximum extent in the Jiangning garrison, and there is no authority to restrict local administrative affairs; in the final analysis, Gu Wuchen and his colleagues from the Chu Party will not allow Li Zhuo to lose political achievements to Chen Xinbo. On the contrary, Lin Fu used Gu Wuchen's strategy for Xia Cao, and Li Zhuo, who could take care of the overall situation, would help secretly.

Although Lin Fu didn't want the world to collapse, he never had the ambition or interest to be a minister of ZTE, and it was his big principle to live in harmony with the situation. If the Dayue Dynasty still has room for recovery, he might as well be a minister of ZTE again. If Dayue Dynasty is doomed to perish, he will not be buried for Dayue Dynasty. The main purpose of offering Xia Cao's strategy is to completely suppress Zhao Qinmin. At this time, he still cannot do without Gu Wuchen's trust. Let Gu Wuchen's power take a step higher, which will also help him to establish a foothold in Jiangdong; I voted under Li Zhuo's family, and I also wanted to relieve his worries for one or two things in return for yesterday's knowledge.

With Zhang Yubo around, Lin Fu and Zhao Qinmin could enter and exit Donghuamen at night. Seeing that it was getting dark, they said goodbye from Gu Mansion. Gu Wuchen got Xia Cao's plan tonight, and saw that he was expected to be the inspector.

Lin Fu took the horse and pretended to hesitate, not in a hurry to leave Gu's house with Zhao Qinmin and Zhang Yubo.

Gu Wuchen, who was sitting at the door of the hanging flower hall, saw Lin Fu hesitate and asked, "Do you have anything else to tell me?"

"I don't know if I should say it or not?" Lin Fu said.

"What's the matter, what else can you say to me?" Gu Wuchen asked with a smile.

"..." Lin Fu walked up to the hanging flower hall and motioned for Zhang Yubo and Zhao Qinmin to go too. He didn't want to speak for the guards to hear, and said in a low voice, "According to what I said, Chen Xiyan is the wife and cousin of Qu Wuyang of the Qu family..."

"Oh?" Gu Wuchen frowned suddenly and asked, "Is that so?"

"Mr. Zhao lived in Jiangning for a long time, he should know a thing or two..." Lin Fu looked back at Zhao Qinmin.

"Chen Xiyan does have this relationship with the Qu family, and the Xixi Society is also funded by the Qu family," Zhao Qinmin thought to himself that Lin Bie's scheming was really poisonous, and he had already seen Gu Wuchen's expression, so he took advantage of the situation and said, "The Qu family is not a good person either. , it's just that the government can't catch the pain of the Qu family's foot, but there is always a pain in the foot..."

Zhang Yubo was really honest, and then he understood: Lin Fu, Zhao Qinmin and Gu Wuchen were actually discussing to frame the Qu family and involve Chen Xiyan. Even if they didn't expect to completely overthrow Chen Xiyan, they should keep Chen Xiyan farther away.

Xia Caozhi's strategy can make a great achievement for Gu Wuchen in Jiangdong, but whether Gu Wuchen can stand firm in Jiangdong is not at all whether his political achievements are outstanding or not.

Chen Xiyan not only has the strength to compete for the phase, but also has the ambition to compete for the phase. He has also taken action to compete for the phase, and it is quite effective. There is no reason why Chen Mingzhe, who is the third place in the current sage's relatives, is the champion. At least it seems that the current sage also intends to use Chen Xiyan to balance the power of the Chu party. The Chunwei ranking is just a test.

For the common people, the emperor is high above the ground, and no one dares to resist. In fact, there is no absolute supreme power in this world. At least on the issue of standing, today's saints can't be reckless. If Chen Xiyan is forcibly pushed into the position, even if the Chu Party and other factions in the DPRK may not dare to strike collectively, secretly obstructing one or two will be enough to make the situation develop in a worse direction, and it may even make the government decree unable to get out of the imperial city, let alone. It is said that the situation of the world is in the hands of one person.

Today, the sage did not dare to suddenly establish Chen Xiyan as his prime minister, so he used Chen Mingzhe to test the reaction of the government and the opposition, or to pave the way for establishing Chen Xiyan as his prime minister.

At this time, the Party of Chu could not react too radically. Although Chen Mingzhe was ranked third in the examinations, but he was the champion in the examination hall, there was nothing excessive, but the Party of Chu could not fail to react. From the sage who may use Chen Xiyan as his prime minister" to "Chen Xiyan as his prime minister is a good choice", "Chen Xiyan as his prime minister may be able to restore the overall situation better than Zhang Xie", then the Chu Party will firmly oppose the emperor's use of Chen Xiyan as his prime minister. sent.

The Chu Party must exert resistance before things are settled. As long as the possibility of Chen Xiyan's official service is destroyed, there is no need to face the final danger.

"This matter must not be told to outsiders," Gu Wuchen said sternly, "you have never mentioned it..."

Lin Fu knew that Gu Wuchen was moved, but it was not easy to frame the Qu family, but once the chicken was not stolen and the matter was revealed, it would be a disaster. Gu Wuchen could not be careless, nor could he use this strategy without consulting Zhang Xie and Tang Haoxin.

Lin Bie nodded and left Gu's house with Zhao Qinmin and Zhang Yubo, who were then sent to Donghua Gate by Zhang Yubo.

After leaving Donghuamen, the moon was light and the breeze was light. Lin Fu rode on his horse without talking to Zhao Qinmin. Zhao Qinmin's momentum was completely suppressed by Lin Fu, and he only worried about how to repair the relationship with Lin Fu. Of course, he didn't dare to think that Lin Fu left him in the cold.

Zhou Pu and the guards and soldiers were scattered around. After the Donghua Gate was closed, the spacious official road more than 20 paces wide was deserted. There were no half pedestrians, and the sound of the wind was mixed with insects.

The revenge of the refugee massacre in Hekou must be avenged. Lin Fu had not been able to trace the motive of the Qu family's massacre of refugees in the Hekou. At this time, it seems likely that Chen Xiyan was instigating it behind the scenes.

For Chen Xiyan, the biggest obstacle to his ascension is Zhang Xie, the leader of the Chu Party.

Gu Wuchen is the son-in-law of Tang Haoxin, the leader of the Chu Party, and he went out with Zhang Xie. It was Zhang Xie who quickly promoted him to the position of the deputy envoy of Jiangdong. If Gu Wuchen made a big mistake in Jiangning, the Chu Party would be fully responsible. It can make the current sage lower his trust in the Chu Party, and naturally he will not dare to use Zhang Xie as his prime minister. Gu Wuchen was stabbed in Shiliang, and it is very likely that Chen Xiyan was behind the scenes. Whether it is creating a massacre of refugees or assassinating Gu Wuchen in Shiliang County, it can further intensify the contradiction between Gu Wuchen and the local forces in Jiangning. If the arrival of Gu Wuchen makes the situation of staying in Beijing Jiangning a mess, no matter who is at fault, Gu Wuchen will be held responsible. The situation may be just as the people behind the scenes induced. The relationship between Gu Wuchen and Wang Xueshan deteriorated to the extreme, but it was the East City Commander, Chen Zhi, who was as stupid as a dog and made a big mistake. Lin Fu helped Gu Wuchen to catch him all at once Live the initiative.

Although Chen Xiyan has the name of a great scholar, he is by no means a good stubborn. Lin Fuyou feels that the scourge of the party disputes between the DPRK and China is stronger than the military affairs, and it is also stronger than the floods and droughts.

Chen Xiyan may have been wronged, but the Qu family must be eliminated, but he never wanted Gu Wuchen to know about Changshan Island, so he could not directly testify that the Qu family was the murderer behind the massacre of the refugees. To implicate Chen Xiyan" to achieve the purpose of killing people with a knife, it was only after Gu Wuchen negotiated with Zhang Xie and Tang Haoxin's secret letter whether it could be done.

Arriving at the estuary, Zhao Qinmin went back to the surrounding house as usual, accompanied the soldiers to lead the horse to the shed, and Lin Fu and Zhou Pu walked towards the cottage. Walking to the front of the courtyard, just as he was about to knock on the door, he heard the dog barking suddenly, and two black shadows rushed over from the courtyard with the wind. Lin Bie was startled, and he took off his waist knife and was about to kill the two vicious dogs. Open.

"Don't kill the dog..." A scream came from the yard, watching Sun Wenpei run out of it.

Lin Fu and Zhou Pu lifted one foot and kicked the two vicious dogs away, but the two vicious dogs kicked and barked. However, they rolled in the mud without fear and tried to rush over. The two vicious dogs even had eye contact while keeping the same line of sight towards Lin Fu, who was standing a little ahead, and attacked together, but at this time, Sun Wenpei arrived and kicked and barked, so they stopped their attack and hid. After Sun Wenpei, he stared at Lin Fu and Zhou Pu.

"Lord Lin, don't kill Lu and Leopard, they don't bite people..." Sun Wenpei said cautiously.

"You should stop the two evil dogs and stop biting people," Lin Fu joked, and asked Sun Wenpei, "Jingzhong is a guest in the cottage?"

"No," Although Sun Wenpei was the daughter of the River Gang, she was always timid in front of Lin Fu. Naturally, Lin Fu mentioned that Lin Jingzhong was joking between her and Lin Jingzhong, but she still did not dare to laugh, and said concisely, "My sister. Let me tell Master Lin that she has no choice but to live in Zhutang. She doesn't want to owe her debts. If you don't show the three thousand money to her, she will naturally repay her debts, but the River Gang has nothing of value. Just let me bring some puppies over. The puppies have been handed over to Xiaoman and Sister Yueer... After Wen Pei finished speaking, Wen Pei left first. UU Kanshu www.uukanshu.com" Sun Wenpei was like hiding from a ghost, curvy He lowered his waist and led the collars of the two knee-high black dogs to the South Shelter of Zhutang.

"Am I so scary?" Lin Bie asked Zhou Pu with a smile.

"..." Zhou Pu smiled, then looked at Sun Wenpei holding the two black dogs, and said, "These two Black Mountain dogs are good, but I didn't expect there would be a Black Mountain dog in Xihe. inside…"

"Master Crow likes to eat dog meat?" Lin Bie asked with a smile. He also saw that these two dogs were good, kicking him and Zhou Pu each would not reduce the ferocity. Domesticated, it seems to be a fine breed. Later generations of military and police used foreign dog breeds. Lin Fu was not familiar with local dogs, but he knew that there was a tradition of raising dogs since ancient times. He thought that this dog was originally called the Black Mountain Dog.

"Don't arrange me behind your back. Dogs can send police whistle-blowers and send messages. We are spies. Can you give me all six puppies?"

When the sage Su Jinyuan of the dynasty wrote in the "Notes on the Seven Classics of Martial Arts", there was a commentary such as "When the army goes to the camp, there are dog stalls on all sides, and the dogs are guarded. When the enemy comes, the dogs bark. There is also a tradition of keeping war dogs. Lin Fu also considered raising dogs on Prison Island to share the guard duty of military guards, but what he saw in Jiangning before were mostly local dogs with mixed bloodlines. Dogs and war dogs, I didn't expect that this woman Sun Wenwan is really not simple, knowing that a dog breed that can be regarded as a guard dog and a war dog is far more valuable than three or five thousand dollars for Hekou and Prison Island. Really want this. To draw a clear line, not to take advantage of this side.
