Chapter 668: Whose Territory?
After the deployment of the armored Leizhou Wei Qianhu Shi Huashan was completed, he walked towards Lin Haoran, who was wearing light armor, with steady steps, and solemnly bowed his hand and said: "Lord Qiqi Soldiers, the last general has surrounded the temple, and it is difficult for them to fly!" ”
At this time, the front and back doors of the Nanshan Ancient Temple were blocked, the temple wall was guarded by people, and the archers were ambushed at the commanding heights. If it weren't for the powerful bandits, it would indeed be difficult to break through.
Lin Haoran was sitting on a jujube red horse at this time, holding the horse's head and looking at this ancient temple, his face looked very calm, but a cold glint appeared in his eyes.
He has never despised any opponent, and even at this moment, he has not relaxed his vigilance against Wang Bai, the political envoy. It's just that what makes him helpless is that some people look down on him and want to do anything wrong on his land.
It would have been fine if he had taken advantage of this disaster to make a small fortune, but these people wanted to use this disaster to loot the wealth of the entire people in western Guangdong, and even more wanted to brew a greater disaster, which was undoubtedly much beyond the scope of what he could tolerate.
The seemingly extremely secretive actions of this group of people have not escaped his eyes at all. Whether it was Shen Liuye, Gu Mancang, or others, they all had enough information to report to him.
What's more, the county governor of Maoming has to surrender to him, and there are more than a dozen civil and military officials in the Huazhou Yamen, how can there be no one with him?
"Long Aolin!"
Lin Haoran looked up at the plaque of the temple for a moment, and suddenly nodded loudly.
"The last general!"
Leizhou Wei Qianhu Long Aolin strode forward and responded loudly.
"You immediately lead people into the temple and arrest everyone from this mansion, and don't let anyone go!" Lin Haoran's face was slightly gloomy, and he immediately gave an order.
"Yes!"
Long Aolin's eyes flashed with joy, and he was about to turn around and take his subordinates inside to get people.
Drive......
But at this moment, there was a movement from behind.
I saw an official wearing a five-rank official uniform patting an old horse, and a group of officials chasing after him, as if he had heard the order here, and the official sitting on the horse shouted loudly, "Slow."
The person who came was the governor of Huazhou, after all, an official from a third-class jinshi. It's just that he is a little older, and he doesn't have any strong connections in the officialdom, so he has been in the office for more than ten years before he gets a Zhizhou from the fifth grade.
Lin Haoran heard the movement behind him, turned his head to look at Zhizhou, who came after all, and did not feel too surprised. The reason why these people chose to conspire in this Nanshan Temple is that they can control this Lord Zhizhou.
Officialdom has the rules of officialdom, and there is no strict relationship between superiors and subordinates as in later generations. Even if it is the prefect of Gaozhou, who governs Huazhou, if it wants to meddle in the affairs of Huazhou, it often has to go through the Zhizhou after all.
"After all, the governor of Xiaguanhua Prefecture will see Lord Lin!"
After all, when he came to the nearest place, he first dismounted with the help of the servant, and then respectfully saluted Lin Haoran on the horse.
Although the two do not have a direct ownership relationship, Lin Haoran is from the prefect of Leizhou in the fourth grade, but after all, he is only from the prefect of Huazhou in the fifth grade, and the two sides are two levels apart.
In essence, he learned that Lin Haoran was ordered to go north to support Gaozhou, and he would inevitably pass through Huazhou City. He took his subordinates early in the morning and greeted him at the city gate early, but this Lin Lei Gong suddenly came straight to Nanshan Temple.
Facing the unexpected actions of this Lin Lei Gong, plus knowing the foundation of Nanshan Temple. After getting the news, he hurriedly led people here, and fortunately was able to catch up and stop it.
Lin Haoran still sat on the horse, and said lightly after all: "Bi Zhizhou, no need to be polite!" ”
After all, when I got up from the ground and looked up at this heroic young officer, I really had mixed feelings in my heart. is also a member of the imperial examination, and he did not get the jinshi until he was forty years old, but the young man in front of him is young and ambitious, and he is very prosperous in the officialdom.
If he was a little younger, he would probably have to hug the thigh of this Lin Lei Gong, so as to get over the addiction of being a prefect. But unfortunately, he is destined to have no chance with this Lin Lei Gong, and even has to stand on the opposite side.
"Bi Zhizhou, you came in a panic, I don't know what happened?" Lin Haoran looked at him stunned and didn't speak, but took the initiative to ask.
After all, when he came back to his senses, although he knew that the person in front of him was powerful and promising, this was his land after all, so he said with confidence: "Lin Futai, you suddenly came to this quiet place of Buddhism to arrest people, I'm afraid there is something wrong with this, right?" ”
"This Buddhist family can't be disturbed at will, but if someone uses this Buddhist family to do something dirty, how can this house tolerate him?" Lin Haoran's face shrank slightly, and he said with a righteous and awe-inspiring expression.
After all, the disguise unexpectedly showed a look of surprise, and then said softly and firmly: "If this is the case, there is no need for Lord Lin to work so hard in this matter. As the governor of Huazhou, this official will definitely bring this gang of bandits to justice! Your Excellency is going to suppress the thieves on the orders of the Ministry Hall, and you must not delay such a trivial matter, and please leave this matter to Honzhizhou, and go to support as soon as possible, so as not to delay the fighter. ”
It not only emphasized his identity as the governor of Huazhou, but also moved out of Wang Fang, the governor of Liangguang, and also used the "fighter plane" to talk about things. This is undoubtedly putting pressure on Lin Haoran to leave here quickly and leave the matter here to him.
It's just that everyone knows that if the matter is handed over to Zhizhou after all, it will naturally be over.
Lin Haoran didn't get annoyed, but looked at him with a smile and asked, "Bi Zhizhou, don't you want to know, why did this government change the route and come here to get people?" ”
"Ben Zhizhou listens!" After all, I said in my heart: No matter what your reason, this is the boundary of my Huazhou, and you, the prefect of Leizhou, have no right to do anything wrong here.
Lin Haoran's face shrank slightly, and then he said loudly and solemnly: "This mansion came to quell the Yaomin rebellion on the order of Lin Butang!" However, the government learned that this was all because these squires hid in the Nanshan temple and conspired to hoard rice, which caused the price of rice to skyrocket, which caused this disaster. Since the government was ordered to quell the riots, how could it be reasonable to ignore these people who started the rebellion? ”
These words were righteous and awe-inspiring, and the hat of a "initiator" was immediately buckled on the heads of squires such as Jiang Yuanwai. From the illegal act of hoarding rice for profit, it suddenly rose to the "bane" that led to the Yao people's riots, and its nature immediately rose to several grades.
They lead to riots?
After all, his eyes widened slightly, and he was immediately stunned.
After Lin Haoran said this, this is no longer an ordinary case, but a super case involving "rebellion". Even if he is the governor, he can't suppress it, and he can't fight with Lin Haoran for the right to dispose of it.
Lin Haoran raised the nature of the case, and with Wang Fang's order to put down the rebellion, he was naturally able to suppress this little Cong Wupin Zhizhou, and then said with a sudden face: "Long Qianhu, go in and capture this group of profiteers to this mansion!" ”
"Yes!"
Long Aolin was already eager to try, and when he received the order, he no longer hesitated, turned around and rushed towards his subordinates.
He also hated these profiteers who tried to make profits from rice merchants, so he worked even harder to do this errand well. Even if it is not to please the soldiers, then it is necessary to get rid of this evil for the people of western Guangdong.
After all, I wanted to drink it, but the words reached my throat and swallowed it back. It is true that he is the governor of Huazhou, but Lin Haoran's reason is too sufficient, and he is not allowed to fight against him as a governor.
In the officialdom, young officials are also endless, but they are often too young and vigorous, or they all seem to be less and more troublesome, and they are often played around by the old fritters of officialdom.
It's just that when I got to Lin Haoran, it didn't work at all. This person is not only an old fritter himself, but also knows how to judge the situation very well, which makes him like a fish in water in officialdom, and in turn plays them old people.
It can be seen from the fact that he rushed straight to Nanshan Temple as soon as he arrived at the boundary of Huazhou, and this move was actually premeditated. When Xu Ji wanted to calculate him, he complied with his wishes and asked him to lead people to swagger and raid Nanshan Temple to copy the old nest.
In the Nanshan Temple, it can be said that people are panicking at this time.
Zheng Menfu and other squires were still dreaming of making a fortune, but as if in the blink of an eye, their good dreams came to naught, and everyone was in danger.
Once they really fell into the hands of Lin Leigong, thinking about that person's various methods, they really couldn't be optimistic. is especially aware of Lin Haoran's family background, people will not take a fancy to their silver taels at all, and I am afraid that they will not be able to get out of the whole body.
Fortunately, the latest news came, and Bi Zhizhou had arrived, which made their restless hearts settle down slightly.
Tea is the best Biluo Spring, and its fragrance is curling.
Jiang Yuan sat in the hall outside, but he was calm, and he had been drinking tea there slowly, without any inappropriate look on his face, as if everything was under control.
Bang!
The door was suddenly kicked open roughly, and Long Aolin led a group of soldiers to strode in, facing the stunned squire present, and immediately said with disdain on his face: "Take them all down!" ”
As the order was delivered, more than 20 wolf-like soldiers rushed in to arrest people, and Zheng Menfu, who was so frightened that his low quality immediately fainted and fell to the ground.
Syllable......
When Jiang Yuanwai saw the door kicked open, the tea cup in his hand fell, smashed heavily on the ground, and splashed a puddle of tea. The composure on his face could no longer be disguised, and he looked at the soldiers who broke in distractedly.
His face turned pale, and he knew that this plan had gone wrong, and that he had despised the young man too much.
Ever since his son Jiang Yuebai got the Jinshi, he has actually been a little floating. Although his son is only a Jishi, with his own training and his son's extraordinary talent, it is a matter of time before he surpasses Lin Haoran.
When he climbed to the rank of the second assistant Xu of the dynasty through his son's relatives, and came into contact with Wang Fang, the governor of Liangguang, and followed the patrol Xu Ji to have a good relationship, he felt that this Guangdong no longer needed to be afraid of anyone, including the former nerd.
After realizing that a natural disaster would befall western Guangdong, he had the intention of taking the opportunity to make huge profits. Relying on the identity of Xu Jie's in-laws, he secretly contacted all parties, intending to inflate the price of rice, so as to make huge profits.
Under his push, the plan went ahead as scheduled, and the price of rice was gradually raised, and even God helped him, and the strong winds of the previous days exacerbated the disaster.
Seeing that his Siamese rice was about to be put on the market, so as to exchange it for snowflake silver and grab hundreds of thousands of taels of huge profits.
But at this time, Lin Leigong, who had always only violently suppressed the price of rice, suddenly came, and he came over in a high-sounding manner, and took down all of them.
Although he still has hole cards, Lin Haoran's move undoubtedly disrupted his overall plan, making the result immediately confusing.
Long Aolin strode towards Jiang Yuanwai, he was not afraid of this Xu Jie's in-laws, and said with a smile: "Jiang Yuanwai, please!" The Lord of the Soldiers wants to see you by name! ”
"You've always known that, haven't you?" Jiang Yuanwai drank tea for a long time, but asked hoarsely in his throat.
As one of Lin Haoran's earliest followers, Long Aolin couldn't know the whole plan, but he knew some moves, so he asked rhetorically: "Here in western Guangdong, what do you think can be hidden from the military commander?"
"You're only acting at this time, what do you want?" Jiang Yuanwai suddenly realized a question and asked bitterly.
Long Aolin shook his head slightly, and made a gesture of invitation: "The Lord of the Soldier is six yuan and the first, and he was given the Great Ming Wenkui by the Holy Lord, and his wisdom is not something that a rough person like me can grind. Outside Jiang, please go out! ”
Jiang Yuanwai seemed to be suddenly a teenager old, and he wanted to get up from his chair, but he couldn't do it.
Seeing this, Long Aolin waved his hand and called left and right, and immediately carried him out.
Outside the temple, Jiang Yuan saw Lin Haoran outside. When they met again after more than half a year, he found that the other party was even more heroic, and this official authority alone was far more than that of most officials.
When Lin Haoran looked at Jiang Yuanwai, his hanging heart was finally put down, but he didn't want to let this real big fish slip away.
"What do you want?" Jiang Yuanwai saw Lin Haoran and took the initiative to ask.
Lin Haoran examined him, and finally said the purpose: "Where are your Siamese rices?" ”
If he only wanted to dismantle this organization that was raising the price of rice, he didn't have to wait until this time, but the purpose was to start the idea of that batch of Siamese rice. After all, it was not Jiang Yuanwai's life that could solve the disaster, but the tens of thousands of stones of rice.
"I'm not there yet!" Jiang Yuanwai's eyes were slightly closed, and he was not intending to compromise easily.
In his heart, there is not only Xu Ji, the governor of Liangguang, but also Wang Fang, the governor of Liangguang, and even Xu Jie, the second assistant of the dynasty, how can he easily admit defeat to Lin Haoran, a newcomer to the officialdom?
Lin Haoran was not surprised, but squinted at him, and then asked, "Is that batch of Siammy in Longmen Bay?" In the hands of the Red Flag Gang? ”
Jiang Yuanwai's eyes suddenly opened, revealing a look of shock.
Lin Haoran caught the change in his facial expression, and waved his hand with satisfaction: "Give him to the good students of this mansion to take care of, don't let him escape!" ”
"Yes!" There were 100 households who immediately received the order.
Jiang Yuanwai suddenly came to his senses, and asked in surprise: "Do you want to disobey the order, do you want to lead people to encircle and suppress the Red Flag Gang?" ”
Lin Haoran shook his head and turned his head to look at the sky in the north, but there was a hint of melancholy in his eyes. Because according to his plan, the war there has probably already begun.
