Chapter 967: Gathering (continued)

Shen Tan smiled bitterly and said, "Brother Ma, Brother Lin has seen his intentions, how could he be fooled?" His little trick can't deceive people in front of Brother Lin. ”

Ma Bin rubbed his hands and said, "That's the same, who can play tricks in front of Brother Lin." ”

Shen Tan frowned and looked at Lin Juedao: "However, if my brother is unwilling to obey and can't get food and supplies, what should you do with this errand of pacifying the envoy?" ”

"yes, isn't that a problem?" Yang Jun and Ma Bin also hurriedly asked.

Lin Jue smiled: "I'm not afraid, I told him, I can't get food and supplies, so I will go to the emperor to resign." I'm not going to do this to appease the envoys. Whoever loves to do it, will do it. You want to trap me with this, but there is no door. I don't have much interest in official positions, it's good to get promoted and get rich, but I don't want to be led by these things. I'm not afraid of people saying I'm incompetent, and I don't have to prove anything to them. ”

"Wonderful. If there is no desire, it is rigid. Brother's hand is wonderful. They thought that you would definitely go out of your way for the sake of merit and fame, but who knew that Brother Lin didn't care about these things at all, so what else could they do? Even if Brother Lin is not a pacification envoy, his reputation will not be damaged. The great achievement of counterinsurgency is in the front, unless he is blind, how can he deny Brother Lin because of this matter. Shen Tan patted his thigh and praised.

Ma Bin also laughed, and even praised Lin Jue for being able to take it and put it down, not trapped by fame and fortune, and chic and comfortable.

Yang Xiu frowned beside him and was silent. Lin Jue said: "What? Does Brother Yang have something to say? ”

Yang Xiu smacked his lips and said, "Brother Lin can indeed get rid of this matter by doing this, but this pacification envoy is for the people of Jingxi Road." Since the people are in a difficult situation now, if the food and materials cannot be supplied in time, will it not be the people who will suffer? I'm afraid a lot of people will die this winter. ”

Ma Bin said loudly: "What a nerd, Brother Lin is not right, the imperial court will naturally send someone to do it." They make things difficult for Brother Lin, but they may not make things difficult for others. What are you worried about? ”

Yang Xiu smacked his lips and said, "Having said that, but this handover is delayed, I'm afraid it will take at least a month." The new official is not familiar with the situation when he takes office, how can he be so familiar with the situation as Brother Lin? It's the end of October, and it's going to snow. ”

Lin Jue nodded slightly, Yang Xiu was still worried about the overall situation, but it was a pity that people spoke lightly. People in high positions don't care about the life and death of the people, but people like Yang Xiu know more about priorities and take care of the overall situation. Perhaps the reason why the Great Zhou Dynasty can survive is because there are still such a large number of grassroots officials who have a conscience and responsibility and are worried about the country and the people among the officials of the Great Zhou Dynasty. Even if they are soft-spoken, they have a huge base and are people who do things concretely, so that they can stabilize the foundation of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

"Brother Yang." Lin Jue smiled and said, "You don't have to worry. Before I returned to Beijing, I had already ordered someone to go to Huainan East Road to borrow grain, in the name of my current head of the Privy Council. As soon as this batch of grain arrives, it can alleviate the urgent need. Even if you send someone else to help, it will be too late to hand over the time. Besides, I'm just talking, in fact, I'm talking to Yang Shumi. He heard that I was going to resign, and he had already said that he would allocate food relief. I think there will be results in these three or two days. So it's not that far. After all, the matter of relief has a bearing on the stability of the post-war situation, and I don't think anyone dares to take it lightly. ”

Yang Xiu sighed when he heard this: "I see. You've thought about it, but I've thought about it too much. In fact, I should have thought about whether Brother Lin is the kind of person who does things without regard for the overall situation. ”

Lin Jue said with a smile: "People like Brother Yang are not reused by the imperial court, which is really a waste of talents." The heart of worrying about the country and the people is stronger than those in high positions. Impressive. ”

Yang Xiu blushed and said, "Mo is not hurting me." ”

Lin Jue laughed.

A few people talked about it, and the topic turned to the specific battle of this counterinsurgency. Lin Jue and Ma Bin both experienced the war and naturally felt it deeply. Shen Tan and Yang Xiu just heard some news, although Shen Tan heard some of his narration after the triumph of the little prince, but after all, Guo Kun couldn't tell him too many things. Therefore, when it came to this matter, Shen Yang and the others were full of interest and listened with relish.

Lin Jue didn't want to show off in front of his brothers, he only talked about his own affairs, and the war was only faint. But Rao is like this, Shen Tan, Ma Bin and Yang Xiu are still fascinated by it. In particular, I heard that Lin Jue led hundreds of horsemen to attack the bandit camp in Yangwu County, was trapped between the dunes and swamps of Bolang Sand, and finally set fire to block the gallop and wiped out the other party. and the various actions of the bold plan to invite the king into the urn in the Heungin Mansion. Although it was said briefly, the three of them were full of thoughts, and the picture in their minds was very clear. Heartfelt admiration and admiration.

"If it weren't for Brother Lin really sitting in front of him, I really thought that was something that only immortals could do. There are less than 3,000 soldiers and horses in Yangwu County against more than 20,000 bandits, in that case, I am afraid that ordinary people will pee their pants, so they should flee quickly. It's incredible. Yang Xiu sighed.

"Yes, Lord Yang's sentence is a human saying, many of you scholars talk on paper, thinking that fighting a war is very simple, and there is Tao in your mouth. But I don't know how dangerous a war is. A stronger force than the opponent may not win, let alone a small victory and more to annihilate the opponent? You say that Brother Lin is an immortal, and I have no objection. In fact, many people in our forbidden army threw themselves on the ground for the five-body body that Brother Lin already admired, so they almost burned incense and worshiped with the portrait of Brother Lin. Ma Bin said in a deep voice.

Shen Tan also nodded and said, "It's really incredible. The two battles are called a beautiful one. On the contrary, I think that the first battle of Xingren Mansion was more beautiful. Please enter the urn, it's crazy. If the inner city is breached, I am afraid that it will be a disaster of slaughter. Brother Lin's courage and responsibility, I am afraid that no one can match it. ”

Lin Jue was embarrassed by their praise. Hurriedly waved his hand and said: "Don't praise people in person, it's okay for people outside to brag, you praise in person, so how can I sit still?" Besides, victory in a war is not something that can be decided by one person. Soldiers use their lives, fight bravely, obey dispatches, and strictly obey orders, and many factors determine the success or failure of the war. It's not up to one person to decide everything. Isn't Big Brother Ma also a great achievement? I think it's better to ask Brother Ma to talk about how to conquer Yingtianfu with the strength of dozens of people. I'd love to hear more about it. ”

"What about the war? Hahaha, it's not worth mentioning, it's a piece of cake. Ma Bin waved his hands and played haha, but his face was proud and excited.

Shen Tan rolled his eyes and said in his heart: It's starting to be chattering again, since he returned to Beijing, he has heard this battle dozens of times. My ears are calloused.

But Lin Jue wanted to hear it, so it was not easy to say anything. Ma Bin began to narrate the part where he stole into Yingtianfu and captured the south gate. Maybe it's because he has said too many times, where to be frustrated, where to promote and suppress, where to be urgent, where to tone up, Ma Bin is quite in place. In addition, the battle was already exciting and tense, and Yang Xiu was even more dumbfounded when he heard it, and Lin Jue was also in a trance.

Suddenly, Ma Bin's gushing narration came to an abrupt end, and he craned his neck to look inside and outside the hall.

Lin Jue was surprised: "What's wrong?" Who is Big Brother Ma looking for? ”

Ma Bin said: "What about the Sun brother in your house? Why didn't you see it? If he hadn't helped me that day, I would never have taken the South Gate and made a great contribution. When I call him, I will thank him to my face, and I will be a brother to him. ”

Lin Jue smiled dumbly, Ma Bin wants to worship Sun Dayong as a brother, so wouldn't he worship a brother together with himself and Shen Tan? Sun Dayong is his own nursing home, so I'm afraid it's inappropriate to do this. It's not that Sun Dayong is not worthy of worshipping himself, but this kind of thing still has to talk about some rules after all. After Guo Kun knew about his friendship with Shen Tan, he counted Lin Jue for a long time, saying that Lin Jue didn't know self-love, how could he surrender his identity and make friends with a guard commander of the palace, and his status was also low.

"Sun Dayong left Beijing on business, you won't see him today. When he returns to Beijing, you can talk about friendship again. Brother Sun is really good, this time things are doing well in Yingtianfu. Lin Jue said with a smile.

After Ma Bin's reminder, Lin Jue suddenly remembered Zheng Nuanyu and Qian Liu'er, who were rescued from Tianfuzhong and sent back to the capital, and they didn't know where to place them. When I came back in the morning, I didn't seem to see Zheng Nuanyu and Qian Liu'er in the crowd that greeted them, and they should not have lived in their own house. I'll have to ask them where they're settled, and maybe I should visit them, after all, I've survived the dead.

"Where did Brother Sun go? When will you be back? Ma Bin asked with some disappointment.

Lin Jue said: "My lady is called Lu Wu, and you all know each other. I returned to Beijing from Hangzhou a month ago, and I didn't arrive in Beijing for more than a month, so I was a little worried, so I asked Sun Dayong and them to meet them. If nothing else, I should be back in Beijing soon. ”

Everyone on the table naturally knew about Green Dance, especially Ma Bin and Shen Tan, and even knew Green Dance's suspected princess identity. I was a little surprised when I heard this.

Shen Tan frowned and said: "The weather is cold, the waterway is about to be sealed, and the Green Dancing Girl will be trapped on the road if she doesn't arrive again." ”

Lin Jue said: "She took the land route. ”

Shen Tan was stunned and said, "Land? Wouldn't that be more difficult to walk? Didn't arrive in more than a month? Impossible. Even if it's by land, it won't take more than a month. Do you want me to send someone to find it for you? This is no joke. ”

Lin Jue thought for a while and said, "It's okay, you have a lot of people, and the scope of the search is larger." Then there is labor. ”

Shen Tan smiled and said, "What is this? As in duty bound. ”

Ma Bin also said that he would use his old relationship and let the people of the Imperial City Division investigate. Lin Jue felt that there was no need to be so excited, so he politely declined. After a few people talked for a while, it was getting late, because Lin Jue was going to go to the palace with Shen Tan to meet him, Ma Bin and Yang Xiu had to leave. Make an appointment to get together for a few days and have a drink. Lin Jue personally sent them out and said goodbye.
