Gu Yingsleeve changed his fast horse and quickly rushed back to the estuary with Lin Lian.

Lin Xuhong, who shrunk his head and hid at the gate of the fence, saw Lin Tie rushing over surrounded by the guards, and hurriedly greeted him and said: "It's messy, it's messy, these rabbit cubs eat the Lin family's food and wear the Lin family's clothes, but they know that they have mutined at this time." Zhao Qingshan's turtle son didn't listen to the call, and the Lin family didn't treat him badly, he dared to refuse to lead people to drive away the mutinous township, old seventeen, you quickly order the transfer of troops from Prison Island to suppress these rabbit cubs......"

"What's the panic," Lin Jian said in a deep voice, "The soldiers are sharp, how can they be casually put on the heads of the children of their hometowns?" ”

Cao Ziang, Ge Cunxin and others will not stand up for the Lin family's affairs, but will only secretly strengthen their vigilance; Besides, except for Lin Bin's order or a real enemy attack, Zhao Hu, Zhou Pu, and Yang Shi may lead the prison island soldiers to cross the river to help.

Lin Jingzhong and Lin Mengde left the estuary in the afternoon, and at this time, Lin Mengde, who went to Quyang Town to do business, had to believe that he and Lin Jian rushed back. Lin Jian didn't have time to discuss anything with him, watched the crowd gather in front of him, and went straight to the troublemaker.

The new house on the west side of the street has not yet been fully completed, but the Lin family can't stand the simplicity of the surrounding house, and after this new house with three courtyards has been handed over, they can't wait to move in in the past two days.

There is no time to lay the bricks in front of the gate of the new house, and the horse-tied pillar has only temporarily buried two urgent ones, and the dismounting stone has not been prepared, and the garden behind it has just been built. Since the Lin family is a family of Shixun, the gate has just been painted vermilion and has not completely dried, and there is a smell of tung oil.

There are 1670 people in the Lin family who want to reduce the township Yong this time, and the rumor that the Lin family wants to reduce the township Yong has already been released, and the real decision is still made before noon today.

The troublesome townsmen sat or squatted in the open space in front of the new house, the weather was hot, the military uniforms were heavy, some people couldn't stand the heat, so they untied their military uniforms and exposed their breasts, shouting nonsense, swords, guns, swords, spears, bows and arrows were also thrown to the ground, plus the crowd of onlookers, not only the venue in front of the new house, but also the entire section of the north and south long streets were also blocked, and the scene was really lively and chaotic.

But when he saw Lin Lian, Gu Yingsleeve, Lin Mengde and others riding over, it suddenly quieted down.

Zhao Qingshan only led thirty or forty villagers to guard in front of the gate of the new house, not to let the mutinous villagers get close to the trouble, and did not take other more measures; Seeing Lin Tie and them rushing back, Zhao Qingshan took a few people down the steps to greet them.

The vermilion gate and the side doors on both sides were closed, and only the side door looked at the situation outside with half of his face exposed, and it was Lin Xulu inside.

Lin Jian sighed slightly, Lin Xulu is good at learning and doing things, but his courage is too insufficient, he and the other Lin family members are hiding inside, which is not only not conducive to communicating with the mutinous Xiang Yong, but also makes the Xiang Yong who is guarding the door alienated.

Since Lin Tingxun, the Lin family really has no more characters who can't control the overall situation.

"What are they all like, soldiers are not like soldiers, Kou is not like Kou, how can the estuary allow you to come nonsense?" Lin Lian turned over and dismounted, handed over the horse to the guards, and walked straight to the middle of the mutinous villagers with Gu Yingsleeve, kicked the swords and spears that were thrown on the ground at will, and shouted sharply, "If you don't disband for a day, you will be a township soldier in the forest for a day, who will allow you to discard the weapons and armor everywhere?" If an enemy attacks the estuary, how do you meet it? ”

"Lord Lin, your kindness, we can't repay it for a few lifetimes, but the Lin family will disband everyone tomorrow, and there is no money for the settlement fee, why do you want us to work for the Lin family today?" One of the soldiers stood up and argued.

"There are no parents, wives and children waiting for you here?" Lin Jian looked at this soldier and asked, "Are you waiting for the soldiers to defend the land, is it really just for the Lin family?" ”

Lin Tingxun died, and no one in the Lin family could have his prestige.

Lin Jian has achieved such a great reputation in Jiangning in just half a year, and he is a legend in Shanglin.

This time, he led the crowd to fight fiercely with the water kou at Luoyang Lake, and confronted the water kou in Shanglindu for half a day, and successfully withdrew thousands of people from Shanglinli. Later, the villagers who fled to Jiangning were taken in by Lin Tie. These villagers who were scattered when the township camp was attacked were also gathered by the forest, accommodated and brought back to the estuary for refuge.

Although the older generation of Shanglinli villagers have different views on some of the radical postures of Lin Lian, the younger generation undoubtedly regards Lin Jian as an example.

When Lin Jian and the Seventh Lady Gu Yingsleeve walked over, no one was squatting or sitting on the ground anymore; At this time, he scolded Lin Bin, even if he still had the resentment of abandoning the Lin family in his heart, he still put on a neat military uniform and picked up the weapons and armor on the ground.

"It's not been a day or two since you arrived at the mouth of the river, but you have nothing to worry about when you see people starving to death here?" Lin Jian walked up the steps and said loudly, "What grievances do you have, recommend a few people to come in and talk with me, and I will ensure that they are fine; Everyone else went back to the makeshift camp, and what kind of system did they gather here? Before dark, the Lin family will give an explanation to everyone. ”

Lin Mengde saw that Lin Jian controlled the situation in a few words, and Lin Xulu saw that Lin Jian controlled the situation at this time, so that people could open the door from the inside, don't look at Lin Xulu's appearance, family background, conversation, bearing, and fame, but compared with Lin Lian, it is really a world of difference.

The mutiny must be led by someone to coax it to be done, with Lin Bin's guarantee, the five people who led the way quickly stood up, and in order to show their respect for Lin Bin, they also handed over their weapons to others to take back first.

"Third brother, the third lady, the sixth lady, the young lady and the three clan elders are all inside?" Lin Jian asked Lin Xulu.

"Inside, fortunately, you and Aunt Seven came back in time." Lin Xulu didn't dare to speak ill of the five people who led the troubles at this time, and walked into the new house with the Seventh Lady, Lin Lian, Lin Mengde, Lin Xuhong and others.

Bypassing the wall and entering the weeping flower gate, the widow of the Lin family and the three clan elders were in the atrium in fear and anticipation, they took the five leaders who led Lin Tie in as Lin Tie's entourage, and when they saw Lin Tie come back, it was like seeing a savior, and they couldn't wait to say: "It's good for you to come back, quickly notify the government to send troops to arrest those who make trouble." I have long said that these untouchables are unreliable, when the lord is alive, how can he treat them badly, the lord's corpse is not cold yet, they are about to rebel, they are really as hateful as Zhao Neng's traitorous slaves. ”

"Okay," Lin Jian snorted lightly with a slightly calm face, stopping them from talking nonsense any more, and said, "The situation is not so serious, everyone has dispersed, and I have asked everyone to elect five people to come out and discuss with the family about the removal of the Xiangyong resettlement." After all, the dismissal of the Xiangyong is a matter of the Xiangyong themselves, and we cannot but listen to their opinions. Zhao Neng, this slave, did not hesitate to cut a thousand knives, and the gathering of villagers outside the door was just to ask the family to carefully consider disbanding, dismantling and resettlement, how could the two things be mixed up? ”

At this time, everyone understood that the five men who came in with Lin Tie were making trouble and Xiang Yong was recommended to come in to negotiate, and their faces became ugly, and when they saw Lin Tie coming back, they controlled the situation, and they also had confidence in their hearts, and the third lady said coldly: "Have you discussed with them?" Originally, the Lin family raised them, do they have to cover their life, old age, sickness and death? ”

Lin Jian frowned, knowing that it was impossible for the women to twist the bend and want them to turn back immediately, how to deal with this matter, he had already made up his mind, so he said: "Several ladies and three clan elders are here, and Xiang Yong has also elected five representatives here, and this matter needs to be properly resolved." Since my family doesn't need to use it, my side will take over first, and after the forest is recovered, it won't work if there are fewer people...... Although the estuary is embarrassed, raising one or two hundred more people will not make people starve to death, but the military guard quota of Jiyun Society is only forty people, and more private soldiers cannot be raised. The third brother, the third lady, the sixth lady and the young lady, what do you think? ”

Lin Lian means to take over the troublesome townspeople, but he still has to occupy the Lin family's quota for raising soldiers.

Although Lin Tie would not stick to the limit of forty military guards if he raised private soldiers in the name of Jiyun Society, it would be difficult to conceal it by increasing so many people at once, and it would be a big trouble to stab Gu Wuchen's political enemies or Lin Tie himself in Jiangning.

Although Shanglinli Xiangyong is a guest soldier in Jiangning, after all, there is an official name, and with this name, Lin Lian can even drive this part of Xiangyong to the north to participate in the Hongzepu War.

"That's fine," Lin Xulu couldn't figure out for a while how much strength Lin Lian had behind his back, and he could raise nearly two hundred more private soldiers on his own, but it was not good to provoke the troublemakers, Lin Lian was willing to take over the hot potato, after all, Lin Lian still had to be counted as the Lin family, he looked at several widows of the Lin family, "What do you think of a few aunts?" ”

"People with foreign surnames really can't be trusted, since Lao Seventeen is not afraid of trouble, then take over the foreign surname Xiangyong," the third lady said angrily, "That Zhao Qingshan, we have all decided to increase his monthly salary to four taels, and he dared to perfunctory the order of his family just now, this time he must clear out......"

"Let's not talk about this matter for the time being, since it has been decided, please trouble the third brother and the seventh lady to accompany me to the camp to announce this decision." Lin Jian said, thinking that the third lady lives deep in the mansion, how can she know that it has never been a simple thing to grasp people's hearts? Even if they all use the children of the Lin clan, it is difficult to ensure that the children of the Lin clan do not have different hearts, is there still less time in the history of brother killing? There is no loyalty for no reason in this world, the Lin family regards the countryside as a mustard, and the township as an enemy, of course, whether it is a different surname or not, but those who have a heart for Qiu Yue, even if they are of different races, can make it like an arm.

Lin Jian no longer delayed time in the new house, and led the five leading troublemakers to rush to the temporary camp of Xiangyong to the west of the Hekou Siege House with Lin Xulu, Lin Xuhong, Lin Mengde and the seventh lady Gu Yingsleeve, and gathered all the troublesome Xiangyong in the afternoon to announce the decision to incorporate the troublesome Xiangyong into the Wuwei of Jiyun Society.
