This army of 100,000, known as 300,000, sent troops to fight on the grounds that the southern country was rude and used force in the mountains.

When they entered the second pass, in Nantong City, Lin Quan saw his family.

Lin Quan looked at Yin Lihua and Chen Jingjing and asked them why they came, and Yin Lihua told Lin Quan that they had hurried over when they heard the news that the imperial court was heading south.

Chen Jingjing told Lin Quan: "Husband, the imperial court sent troops this time, presumably you will not leave it alone." ”

Lin Quan shook his head and told Chen Jingjing that this matter was difficult to say.

Now Lin Quan is staying here as a sinner, if the saint does not have the will to come down, then how can he join the army?

And Lin Quan didn't want to get involved in this matter, Lin Quan thought that the imperial court sent troops this time, and if it didn't go well, it wouldn't work.

And the coach is still Concubine Ping, Lin Quan is even more worried. Lin Quan has no prejudice against Concubine Ping, but he is worried that Concubine Ping is prejudiced against him, after all, he is also a person from the side of the six princes, even if Concubine Ping doesn't deal with him, can he still give himself the opportunity to make meritorious contributions.

Lin Quan expressed his worries, Chen Jingjing breathed a sigh of relief, and said to Lin Quan: Shaowen and Duowen are still young, husband, this expedition is not a joke, even if it is protected by ten thousand troops, it is inevitable to be injured by stray arrows, if there is anything to do with Lin Quan, then Chen Jingjing and they really don't know what to do.

Hearing Chen Jingjing's words, Lin Quan looked at his three wives and let them go to the study, Chen Jingjing asked curiously, what did Lin Quan want to say.

"Sister Jing, I don't know if I'm going to go on the expedition this time, but I have a hunch. If I go on the expedition, I'm afraid that I won't be able to come back. ”

When Chen Jingjing heard this, she covered her mouth and looked at Lin Quan in disbelief, and when she reacted, she hurriedly said bah, asking Lin Quan not to say these unlucky words.

"Sister Jing, life and death are fateful, this matter is not up to me, you listen to me, you are the wife, they are their sister, if I can't come back this time, then you will be the presiding officer of this family."

"Husband......

Chen Jingjing was about to say something, but Lin Quan interrupted, and then continued: "Sister Jing, these two children, you have to find the Master to teach, they are naturally wealthy, if they can't read and understand things, then this wealth is a life-urging knife, but it will ruin their lives. ”

Chen Jingjing nodded and told Lin Quan that he knew, and he would definitely invite a famous teacher to teach these two children, even if these two children could not become great Confucians, they would not let them become gentlemen and ruin Lin Quan's reputation.

After Lin Quan heard this, he also explained the second thing: "I have four disciples, although Yuan Pei has qualifications, but he doesn't have the heart to learn first, he likes Taoism, and it will naturally be up to him in the future." Siyi, this child, now as long as he learns and does what I say, he will naturally be a generation of Confucianism in the future. As for the academy, leave it to Yuli, he is an honest and steady person, and he can be entrusted with big things. Fa Yao, I hope he can go to Fengcheng to give a lecture as I said. ”

Yin Lihua didn't understand why Liang Fayao didn't go to Tongshan Academy to give a lecture, but went to Fengcheng instead.

"The cultural context has moved south for many years, the four mansions of Hezuo are mostly reading seeds, Fa Yao is in Huanglong City or Haining City, it is difficult to find materials to make, Fengcheng people are outstanding people, when the time comes, I can find a disciple who inherits my mantle, and my Tao will not be broken."

After Yin Lihua heard this, she said that she would remind Liang Fayao of this matter.

After explaining these two things, Lin Quan said to Chen Jingjing: "By now, Tang Sai'er and I are already husband and wife, if my heir can come back in the future, I hope Sister Jing can be treated equally." ”

"Husband, what do you say, will I still despise him?" Chen Jingjing said with sobbing voices, Lin Quan looked at the atmosphere a little sad, and said to them: "You don't have to be too sad, this is just to prevent accidents." ”

Chen Jingjing smiled reluctantly and said to Lin Quan: "Husband, you are a person who has a long life and is rich and long, how can there be accidents." ”

"Well, I hope I'm worried."

In the next few days, Lin Quan relaxed, traveled with his wife, and lived the life of a fairy couple.

He was happy, but the magistrate was worried every day, he had never greeted the army, and he didn't know what to do, as for his men, the same.

The magistrate wanted to visit several times, but in the end, he didn't dare to disturb Lin Quan when he saw Lin Quan's happy appearance.

Before the army was about to arrive, the magistrate had no choice but to ask Lin Quan what he should do.

Lin Quan asked if the dry food had been prepared and whether the tent had been set up.

The magistrate said that he had prepared according to the instructions issued by the imperial court.

"Now that the Ming Mansion is ready, there is nothing to worry about."

"I'm just worried about what happens......"

"No in case, you should check it, everything is in order, it's fine."

Seeing Lin Quan say this, the magistrate could only retreat and let Liufang investigate.

After Lin Quan waited for the magistrate to leave, he remembered that the imperial army was coming, did he want to follow the army?

However, Lin Quan quickly let go of this matter, this matter, whether he wants it or not, if Concubine Ping really wants him to join the army, he can only follow the army.

The army soon arrived, and Lin Quan was summoned without any suspense.

In the handsome tent, Xiangguo Gong looked at Lin Quan and said to Lin Quan: "Lin joined the army, I haven't seen you for a long time." ”

"Su Shuai, the little one has not joined the army for a long time, and I am really ashamed to be called a member of the army."

Xiang Guogong smiled and said, "Are you angry with the saint?" Lin joins the army, and the saint has his own ideas, and these ideas, you need to understand. ”

When Xiangguo Gong said this, he told Lin Quan with a serious expression that now there are displaced people in various places, and some of them are exhausted, and they have no choice but to be homeless.

Under this prosperous era, the number of people in the Yu Dynasty reached 20,000, which is not a small number, and the saint was shocked when he saw it.

In order to maintain this peaceful and prosperous era, the sage could only attack the southern country, which was mostly fertile land, and with the land of the southern country, there would be no displaced people in the Central Plains.

Lin Quan thought to himself that there were so many official fields, but the sage refused to help, but thought about expanding the territory.

Even if the southern kingdom is pacified, how many fields can be divided equally? Just like this Xiangyun Mansion, not most of them can only be homeless.

Looking at Lin Quan's disdainful look, Xiangguo Gong understood, and said to Lin Quan: "This official field is to be rewarded by the imperial court, and Emperor Gao set it up, so as not to merge these nobles in the future." If you take out the official land to use it now, then in the future, there are too many nobles and nobles, and the official land is not enough, what should I do? How will they live if those who have worked hard are taken back? ”

When Lin Quan heard this, he said to Xiangguo Gong: "The lord of the land for thousands of years, this land circulation is a common thing. Emperor Gao's heart for the sake of the people, I also understand, but there are inevitably too many official fields. ”

"This has become a program, you and I can't change it, even if it's a saint, it's not easy to change, and a saint only has this one way now. Lin Quan. Those who are subordinates should also be more considerate of the sufferings of saints. ”

"I naturally understand the sage's distress, but this time the southern expedition, Su Shuai, thanks to you looking up to me, I will say a word from my heart, I don't think there will be any good results in this southern expedition."

When Xiang Guogong heard this, he chuckled in his heart, thinking to himself, not only did he think it was inappropriate, but even Lin Quan thought it was inappropriate.

Xiangguo Gong hurriedly asked, "How do you say this?" ”

"Su Shuai, the little one and you are both people who have gone west together, and you and I are well aware of the dangers and obstacles in the westward expedition, and you and I have almost hated each other several times. If it weren't for God's favor, I'm afraid that you and I would have buried our bones in Xijon a long time ago. ”

Lin Quan said this, and continued: "The same is true for the Southern Expedition now, but now you and I don't know, whether there is God's favor or not, the so-called things can be one, two, not three. ”

"That's why."

"That's all."

Xiangguo Gong said with a serious expression: "Since ancient times, there have been no generals who have always won, and a few people have returned to fight in ancient times." Lin joined the army, indeed, I also felt this way, but it was a matter of eating the king and being loyal to the king. No matter what the outcome of this battle is, I can only keep going. ”

Lin Quan sighed and said: "Su Shuai is right, so far, we are the only one, I don't know if Su Shuai is preparing to let me be a marching counselor this time?" ”

"Lin Quan, hearing you say this, this counselor is still forgotten, you are a minister of the pillars, if you go like this, then the world will scold me to death. You're still staying here, but it's useless, but it's still keeping you safe. ”

"Su Shuai, this, this ......" Lin Quan really didn't expect it. The Xiangguo Guild said this, Xiangguo Gong looked at Lin Quan, and said solemnly: "Lin Quan, you must live well, if I don't come back, the saint still needs your assistance." ”

Lin Quan originally wanted to say some bold words, but when he thought of Chen Jingjing and his two children, he could only say to Xiang Guogong: "Thank you Guogong." ”

"Lin Quan, if you can, that little kid of mine will worship you as a teacher, and I hope he can become a great Confucian under you."

"The great grace of the Guogong, Lin remembers the five Nei, and will carefully teach Ling Gongzi in the future, so that he can live up to the expectations of the Guogong."

After Lin Quan finished speaking, Xiangguo Gong picked up a glass of wine, toasted Lin Quan, and said to Lin Quan: "This glass of wine is regarded as a tribute to Mr. Xixi." ”

"Lin is ashamed." After Lin Quan drank it in one gulp, Xiangguo Gong asked Lin Quan to leave, and as for Concubine Ping, he went back to say.

Speaking of this, Xiangguo Gong said to Lin Quan: "Presumably, Concubine Ping is also very reluctant to be born and die like you, but there is no one to persuade her." ”

After Lin Quan heard this, he thought to himself that Xiangguo Gong was all polite words, and Concubine Ping really had the intention not to let herself get involved.

But this is okay, he has one less risk, but Lin Quan feels heavy in his heart, as if he has added something.
