Lin Zhuo and Zhao Qinmin accompanied Li Zhuo and Gao Zongting to talk in the front hall of the grass hall, Li Zhuo was quite interested in the sea route, Lin Zhuo was naturally free to speak, Gu Wuchen planned to make Jiangdong County's grain supply to Yanjing reach 1.2 million stone after the autumn grain harvest this year, and he must be prepared to take the sea route to prevent the inland river road from being blocked.

Lin Tie asked people to bring the news of Li Zhuo's arrival at the mouth of the river back to the city, Yang Pu led the cavalry and the Jianrui battalion of the garrison to take over the defense of the estuary one after another, knowing that the officials of Jiangning would come later, and it was inconvenient for Lin Tie to prepare a banquet for Li Zhuo and Gao Zongting in the grass hall, so he asked Liu Yue'er to prepare some refreshments and send them.

At first, he was still accompanied in the front hall of the thatched hall, and when the officials such as Yin Wang Xueshan of Jiangning Mansion, Jia Pengyu, the deputy envoy of Jiangdong, Gu Wuchen, and the left and right attendants of the Jiangning Military Department, the right capital of Jiangning, and Zuo Shangrong, the governor of Jiangdong, and other officials came to the estuary one after another after night, or cars or sedan chairs or horses and horses came to the estuary one after another.

The estuary side of the Jiangning garrison town Junjianrui battalion took over the defense, the corner tower was as bright as a full moon, and many recruiters, military households and displaced people from the original estuary and the children of Dongyang were ordered to go back to the surrounding house, and they were not allowed to wander outside and make noise, but there were many followers and followers of various officials, and their temper and frame were very big, so they did not dare to make noise in front of the thatched hall of the discussion, but they instructed the guys of the Jiyun Society to get up as if they were commanding their grandsons, and Lin Jingzhong and Qian Xiaowu could only serve with all their hearts.

When it was dark, they heard the news that Li Zhuo, who had come to take over as the general of the Jiangning garrison, appeared at the mouth of the Jinchuan River at dusk with Gao Zongting, a famous scholar in western Zhejiang.

On the estuary side of the river, in addition to the surrounding houses, shacks, and thatched halls where the displaced people lived, there were no buildings that could temporarily accommodate officials, and everyone did not know whether to welcome Li Zhuo into the city that night, or to place him in another place outside the city. The nearest official post is located in Moling County, sixty miles away, or it is Chaotian Post on the north bank of Chaotiandang; Quyang Town is very close, and there are also luxurious inns, but it is not in harmony to settle Li Zhuo in Quyang Town, and after entering the dark, it is necessary to suddenly strengthen the vigilance of Quyang Town and expel irrelevant people, which is also a little disturbing to the people. The main officials in Jiangning City planned to go out of the city first to greet them, and whether they wanted to enter the city tonight still depends on Li Zhuo's intentions, and they also sent people to Quyang Town to arrange first, so as not to panic.

Lin Tie sat on the mound outside the grass hall, Xiao Man and Liu Yue'er sat beside him on the left and right, and said in Xiao Man's words: "I am not happy to serve those squinting officials...... "Everything is left to Lin Jingzhong to do."

"Does this count as a dove occupying a magpie's nest?" Liu Yue'er asked.

“…… I'm afraid that people still don't look down on this thatched shed. Lin Jian said with a smile.

"People don't look down on it, I just like it," Xiao Man innocently put his arm around Lin Tie and asked him, "Do you think the thatched shed is good?" ”

"What's good or not, whether it's a thatched hut or a Qionglou Yuyu, you have to be here," Lin Jian said with a smile, "As the saying goes: This place of peace is my hometown!" ”

"As the saying goes, why haven't I heard this poem?" Xiao Man stared at Lin Bin's face seriously and asked, but Liu Yue'er thought about the affection conveyed in Lin Bin's words, lowered her head, buried her slightly hot pretty face in her knees, but her body was next to Lin Bin's sturdy waist and did not avoid it.

"What kind of poetry is not poetry, I am talking nonsense......" Lin Lian prevaricated the little man, thinking to himself: Could it be that the phrase "this place of peace is my hometown" has not yet come out? Maybe it's not widely circulated, and with his level of literature and history, I don't know where this sentence comes from.

Under the light of the corner tower, Lin Jian looked at the traffic in the fence and the hustle and bustle of the crowd, thinking that only the big guys in Jiangning City did not appear as Wang Tian and Qin Chengbo, the commander of the Jiangning garrison. Li Zhuo came to replace the post of Jiangning garrison general, Qin Chengbo naturally did not enthusiastically go out of the city to greet Li Zhuo, and if it was about the title, Qin Chengbo was even more prominent than Li Zhuo, but he did not prevent the officials of the Jiangning Military Department and the generals of the garrison army from coming to the mouth of the river to greet Li Zhuo; After all, in terms of prestige, Qin Chengbo knew that he was too far inferior to Li Zhuo. There is no overlap between the Jiangdong Xuanfu Envoy and the Jiangning Garrison General's Mansion in terms of power, and the Xuanfu Envoy Wang Tian will naturally not be in a hurry to come to visit him for a while, and it will not be too late to visit Li Zhuo after he enters the city to take office. Although the Jiangning garrison general can't control the Admiral's Mansion in peacetime, after all, there is a name for wartime moderation, and Zuo Shangrong, the governor of Jiangdong County, who has never met Lin Tie after arriving in Jiangning, also took the deputy general of the Admiral's Mansion out of the city to greet him. Looking at this frame, the specifications greeted were much higher than when Gu Wuchen first came to Jiangning.

Listening to the rumors in the grass hall that Li Zhuo would enter the city tonight, Lin Jian breathed a sigh of relief, the small temple could not accommodate the big Bodhisattva, Li Zhuo really wanted to stay at the mouth of the river for one more day, and the mouth of the river would have to be under martial law for one more day, which was very inconvenient. Seeing Li Zhuo walk out of the grass hall surrounded by the stars and moons of the officials in Jiangning, Lin Zhuo also stood up and patted his buttocks, and said to the second daughter: "I still have to go over and nod my waist...... "Regardless of whether Li Zhuo looks at him as a little Jiupin Confucian Lin Lang, Li Zhuo will do it, and Lin Zhuo will come forward to send it off, and he is not qualified to get too close, so he nodded behind everyone and watched Li Zhuo ride a horse first.

When Li Zhuo stepped on the horse and was about to leave, his eyes swept over and stopped on Lin Zhuan's face for a moment, and then turned his head to look at the corner tower in the distance, and without saying anything, he rode away surrounded by the generals of the garrison. The 600 elite horsemen of the Jianrui battalion then pulled out of the camp and left, and hundreds of lanterns reflected the chariots and horses that had just rammed the roadbed like a fire dragon. The officials who came to greet him at the mouth of the river also rushed back to the city with their retinues or on horseback, sedan chairs or carriages, dragging the procession longer and more dispersed.

Gu Wuchen left last, he was in a carriage when he came, and before getting into the car, he called Lin Jian to him and asked him, "What did Li Zhuo talk to you about before nightfall?" ”

Lin Jian peeked at Gu Wuchen's expression, and couldn't figure out the meaning of his question for a while, and he didn't know what Zhao Qinmin said to him in private, Xiao Yi said: "I didn't say much, Li Duxu passed through the estuary and asked some things about the prison island, and I answered truthfully if I could answer truthfully." ”

"Well," Gu Wuchen sat in the carriage, Yang Pu lifted the curtain for him, his face was hidden in a deep shadow, and people couldn't see the look on his face, after a while, I heard him sit in the shadow and say, "It should have been three or five days since Li Zhuo arrived in Jiangning, don't let this sentence leak into the ears of others, no matter who he is, Li Zhuo is the person recommended by Chen Xinbo after all, you don't have to forget this......"

Lin Lianzhi felt a chill on his back rushing up, and replied busily: "I know ......"

"Okay, I'll go into the city first, and see the situation until midnight in the inn without stopping; Tomorrow you come over for dinner, and we haven't had a glass of wine together in days. Gu Wuchen said this, got out of the car, and followed the team into the city.

Looking at the procession that meandered away for more than two or three miles, and countless wind lanterns stretched under the night sky, like a fire dragon, Lin Jian stood in front of the fence gate, and Gu Wuchen's instructions when he left still made him feel cold. He glanced at Zhao Qinmin, clasped his fists and said, "Mr. Zhao, you are also tired, go back and rest early...... Thinking that he should have said something to Gu Wuchen in private.

Zhao Qinmin said goodbye and left, and Lin Jian also stood aside with his second daughter who was waiting for him to go back to the cottage.

"Are you thinking about something?" Walking back to the cottage, Xiao Man couldn't help but ask.

"Uh," Lin Jian was stunned for a moment, looked up at Xiao Man, and asked, "Is it so obvious?" ”

Not only Xiaoman, but Liu Yue'er also nodded thoughtfully.

"There is nothing else to do, just to sigh about the struggle between the government and the opposition party." Lin Jian said, thinking that his worried appearance might also fall in Zhao Qinmin's eyes.

When Luxury Feihu deliberately befriended this side, Gu Wuchen didn't say anything; Not to mention whether Li Zhuo's appearance at the estuary today was intentional or unintentional, Lin Lian was careful not to show too much, but Gu Wuchen was extremely vigilant, in the final analysis, it was still a damn party dispute.

Li Zhuo was recommended by Chen Xinbo, who was the deputy minister at the time, to lead the Jiangxi Zhufu army to fight in Fujian as the deputy envoy of Jiangxi, all the armies were defeated, and only Li Zhuo stabilized the war situation on the front line of Shaowu all the way. In the following years, with the support of Chen Xinbo, Li Zhuo led the war in Eastern Fujian with the titles and identities of the Eastern Fujian Inspector, Xuanfu Envoy, Jiangning Military Minister, and Governor of Eastern Fujian.

In the winter of the previous year, the fiasco of Chen Tangyi on the northern front, tens of thousands of troops were lost, and thousands of miles of land and hundreds of thousands of people in the Jibei defense area all fell into the hands of the Donghu people, and the West Qin Party could not escape the blame, and almost all the officials of the West Qin Party in the Yanjing Military Department, the Ministry of Officials, the Ministry of Households and other ministries were swept away, and the Chu Party was only promoted in this context, but Chen Xinbo, the leader of the West Qin Party, was still in the phase, and the current Shengshang did not seem to be in a hurry to replace Chen Xinbo with the Chu Party.

Li Zhuo's rise in the southeast is due to Chen Xinbo; Many people believe that after the fiasco of Chen Tangyi, Chen Xinbo was able to keep his position because of Li Zhuo, at least within the Chu Party.

After the first battle of Chen Tangyi, there were only a handful of famous generals who could place high hopes on the government and the opposition to turn the tide of the northern front, and Li Zhuo ranked first, and the most important thing was that Li Zhuo had been in the southeast battlefield for nearly ten years.

Perhaps the current Shengshang, or perhaps the Chu Party believes that only by leaving Chen Xinbo in the phase can the elite of Eastern Fujian be calmly transferred to enrich the northern front. Of course, when the Chu Party thinks that everything is calmly arranged, it probably will no longer tolerate Chen Xinbo to continue to stay in the phase, on the contrary, it will do everything possible to bring down Chen Xinbo, so that the Western Qin Party will not be able to resurrect completely.

In Gu Wuchen's eyes, Li Zhuo is also the great enemy of the Chu Party.
