Chapter 311: Envoy VS Kuraji (II)
Gou Dasheng's mind was racing, and he couldn't stop weighing the pros and cons, since Su Jin dared to take risks, he would never be soft on himself, relying on the gold medal in his hand, if he didn't choose the second way, he would not hesitate to make the gold medal public and ask himself on the spot.
But relatively speaking, the consequences of the first way do not seem to be out of control, and the loss of office is convicted but the life can be saved. And the second way is a desperate road, either to escape unharmed, the relief is completed, and it will be praised by the imperial court, or it will be implicated and die with Su Jin.
Of course, Su Jin knew his thoughts, and sneered softly: "You don't have to think of any compromise, if you choose the first path, I guarantee that you will go bankrupt, and the family's property, wife, children, and servants, if I don't sweep it cleanly, the gold medal given by the emperor will be given to me in vain." ”
Gou Dasheng said in a trembling voice: "The emperor didn't give you this brand to deal with me, you are so abusing the imperial gold medal, are you not afraid that the emperor will blame?" ”
Su Jin gritted his teeth and said, "Do you think I look like I'm afraid?" What's the use of being afraid? Yangzhou City will not open a warehouse for relief, I am afraid that there will be a catastrophe, so many days of continuous civil change, what have you done? Lao Tzu came to risk the crime of killing your head to help you quell the civil uprising, but you came to obstruct me, in this case, everyone broke up, anyway, I also moved the military rations, and committed a capital crime, if I don't pull a few cushions, wouldn't it be a loss; In a word, if you don't stand with me, I will make your life worse than death. ”
Gou Dasheng hated the root of his teeth, and begged in a low voice: "Envoy Su, how about you let me go?" I promise not to obstruct your errands again, and it has nothing to do with me what you like; The official rushed back to the office overnight, and what happened here never happened? ”
Su Jin sneered: "What you think is beautiful, you have also seen the gold medal, you have mastered all my secrets, and now you want to retreat, there is no door, you can pretend not to leave, but you must write down a note to me, we can also be regarded as an offensive and defensive alliance, if it is safe and sound on another day, if there is a wind and grass, I will drag you into the water together." ”
Gou Dasheng begged bitterly: "Master Su, this official has worked hard for most of his life to get into such a position, and dozens of people in the family are counting on the official's money to feed, if it weren't for your today's matter involving the authority of the official, the official would not want to come to this troubled water, even if you accumulate virtue and do good, how about letting the official go?" The official promised to keep his mouth shut. ”
Su Jin said angrily: "Hugh has deceived me, do you think I am a three-year-old child?" You say that you have no quarrel with the world, just by the attitude you just treated the people, I know that you are not a good type, maybe I shouldn't be long-winded with you at all, and directly taking you is the greatest accumulation of virtue and doing good; You can't recognize the situation clearly, and you're still bargaining with me here, and you don't want to think about it, I'm doing something that the whole family is beheading, and you're afraid that your family will be affected, so I'm not afraid? That's it, take it and take care of it, things have to be done anyway. ”
Su Jin said that he turned around and wanted to leave, Gou Dasheng knew that he was going to show off the gold medal to mobilize the soldiers, but there was no room for maneuver, so he simply turned his heart and said: "Su envoy, slow down." ”
Su Jin turned around and said coldly: "What else do you have to teach?" ”
Gou Dasheng suddenly said loudly: "Continue to open the warehouse and release grain!" In fact, the official warehouse is only a relief grain, and it was originally intended to help the people as a last resort, but since the envoy thinks that the time is right at this time, of course the official agrees. ”
Everyone cheered, Pan Jiang breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly ordered the soldiers to hurry up and distribute food, although he ate a mouthful of the envoy, but his means of this envoy were already five bodies, who didn't know that Lord Cang Sigou was the most difficult character on Huainan East Road, and he was actually obedient to him, and he didn't know how to do it; As for how this military ration suddenly became not military rations, it is not my concern.
Su Jin smiled, turned around and said with a smile: "Sure enough, I can afford to take it and put it down, and the future of Lord Kuraji is limitless." ”
Gou Dasheng said angrily: "It's good to be able to keep this life, can you ask your subordinate to let me go, it's not a matter of always pulling my neck." ”
Su Jin hurriedly asked Ma Han to let go, he really admired this Gou Dasheng, and he asked him to keep his mouth shut and write a note as collateral, but he didn't expect him to stand with him publicly.
Gou Dasheng actually thought very clearly about the whole thing, even if he pretended not to know, he would still be bitten out by Su Jin when something happened, and it would be difficult to escape the involvement; It's better to simply be single, and openly stand with Su Jin.
If you die, you can't escape; If you have a small credit because of this matter, you will obviously get more benefits from standing on the bright side, and after the court rewards you, you are also one of the parties, and you will not be swallowed by Su Jin alone.
Su Jin smiled, leaned into his ear and said, "Kuraji-sama relax, everything is with me, don't you cherish my head when I do?" Isn't it half a certainty that I'm doing things with my head in my hands? This matter will soon subside, and within six or seven days, the Luzhou grain transport team will arrive, and when the time comes, it will be filled in the granary, and the gods will not know it; This great contribution to the stabilization of Yangzhou is indispensable to your Lord Cangji. ”
Gou Dasheng smiled bitterly: "What else? May God bless you do as you wish. ”
Su Jin hooked his shoulder and said: "Don't worry, some things are actually terrible to think about, but in fact he is not so terrible, I don't think you need to know Huainan Road during this time, just stay here, so as not to ask others and cause trouble." ”
Gou Dasheng sighed: "That's all. ”
While the people were happily receiving the food, they looked at these two strange officials, not long ago they were insulting each other and fighting, and now they actually hooked their shoulders and whispered intimately, and some people scolded in their hearts: "The world is as black as a crow, fortunately I didn't make a bird just now, otherwise these two officials will be in a bad mood and will work together to rectify people." ”
Some people also saw that the fat official seemed to be forced to be helpless, but no matter what, as long as they could receive food, who would take care of these official affairs, they were noisy and compatible, and it seemed that they had nothing to do with their little people.
The injured woman was also helped up and re-received the food, and Gou Dasheng found out that he gave her a lot of money to treat her injuries, and sent someone to help her deliver the grain and rice to her home.
The woman was very grateful to Gou Dasheng, Gou Dasheng was a little overwhelmed, and he was uneasy, Su Jin smiled and said: "It feels good to do good deeds, you have to do more of this, so that you can get peace of conscience." ”
Gou Dasheng rolled his eyes and said, "Phew! This official has always loved the people like a son. ”
Su Jin laughed and said, "Well, what a son who loves the people, I'm afraid it's an illegitimate child." ”
It was not until the second watch was approached that the grain distribution was completely over, and the remaining people who had just received the news no longer needed a large number of people to do things here, and it was enough to keep a distribution point.
100,000 stone of military rations, nearly 60,000 stones, one liter of grain per capita, indicating that at least 600,000 people received life-saving food, a family sent a person to receive food, and nearly 90,000 people went in and out of the granary courtyard, no wonder the whole yard was trampled on the snow and melted, mixed with the soil and became gruel.
Seeing that the general trend had been decided, Su Jin was full of comfort, and pulled Gou Dasheng and said: "Lord Gou, it's time for us to rest, this day is really tiring, I'll be the east, find a restaurant to drink two cups." ”
Gou Dasheng said: "Why don't you call the Song Governor's Mansion to go together?" ”
Su Jin squeezed his eyes and said: "Governor Song still doesn't scream, I'm afraid I'm still asleep at the moment." ”
Gou Dasheng said: "How is it possible, for such a big thing, he won't take a head, but he won't sleep a lot." ”
Su Jin smiled and said, "He can't sleep if he wants to." At that moment, he knelt in Gou Dasheng's ear and told Gou Dasheng about the deception of the prefect to drink the sweat medicine and wine at noon.
Gou Dasheng's fat face trembled, and he almost fell, pointing at Su Jin's nose and saying, "You are a madman, a complete madman." ”
Su Jin smiled: "This time, you believe that I can do anything, congratulations on making the right choice, or that sentence, everything is in my control, you can relax." ”
Gou Dasheng sighed: "It's useless to say anything, I'm on the thief ship." ”
The two walked out of the Guancang compound, looked at the lights of thousands of homes in the distance, laughter, the whole Yangzhou City came to life from the lifelessness of the previous few days, and a few green buildings actually opened, and the sound of silk and bamboo floated to the ears, which was this lewdness. The little song, listening to Su Jin's ears, has also become a fairy music.
