Jinan is a city and a pool, that is, a city and an inner city.

The inner city is not big, only 600 steps square, the county magistrate's office, Jinan Mansion, Licheng County Governor, Lu Wangfu, Confucian Temple, Gongyuan and the private residences of the powerful and wealthy are mostly in the inner city. There is a moat outside the inner city, the four gates are not right, the south gate is east, the east gate is north, the north gate is west, the west gate is south, the four gates are all built with urn city, but the main body of the city wall is still rammed earth plate building, only the city gate section and the urn city are built with bricks and stones.

Lin Mengde took seven or eight cavalrymen and rushed directly to the market, and he wanted to collect some scarce materials in Jinan City; Lin Jian followed Yue Lengqiu and Lu Jingyan into the city from the west gate, and went straight to the Admiral's Mansion in the southwest of the city.

The officials of the Shandong County Prefecture and the Jinan Prefecture and the representatives of the Lu Wangfu all gathered in the Ming Hall of the Admiral's Mansion, and the main seat was vacant.

In Jinan Prefecture, in addition to them, the guest army also has two Zhejiang Qin Wang Divisions stationed, and the commander is a deputy general, who is also invited to sit in the Ming Hall. After so many officials introduced them in turn, Lin Jian could only remember a few key people such as the Shandong Xuanfu envoy, the press inspection envoy, and the commander, but it was Yuan Jianhai, the representative of the Lu Wangfu, who impressed him very deeply.

Yuan Jianhai is the younger brother of Yuan Jiancheng, King of Lu, hopeless prince, although he was named the general of Zhenguo, but he did not open the palace independently, and he was only slightly older than Lin Lian, and he was a distant cousin with today's Shengshang on blood relatives.

Yuan Jianhai represented the Lu Wangfu as a child of the clan to attend today's deliberations, to Lin Bin's surprise, as long as Yuan Jianhai has a short mustache on his lips, he is a copy of Yongchang Hou Yuan Jinqiu, or Yuan Jinqiu shaved the mustache on his lips, it is a copy of Yuan Jianhai, if Yuan Jinsheng's appearance is older, he will also have eight or nine percent of Yuan Jianhai.

Although Yuan Jinqiu and Yuan Jinsheng are also children of the Yuan family, they are almost seven or eight generations apart from King Lu's lineage in terms of blood, and their appearance can still be so similar, Lin Jian can only maliciously speculate that their parents may have secrets that cannot be given to outsiders.

"Lord Lin, what do you say about the Shandong County Government's plan to ask us to come over?"

Lin Lian thought wildly, and when he heard someone calling him behind him, he turned his head slightly and glanced at the young man who was kneeling behind him and Lu Jingyan in Confucian costume, this young man was a clerk in Yue Lengqiu's tent. When Lin Jian arrived at Yue Lengqiu's tent before noon, this young man was also there, but no one had introduced him at that time, maybe he had introduced him, and he might not have heard it inadvertently, and he couldn't remember his name.

"Humble Song Bo, barely serving as a clerk in front of Yue Shuai's tent......" The young man saw Lin Jian turn his head sideways, his eyes were a little puzzled, and he hurriedly sat up straight and solemnly introduced himself, "My sister is the wife of Jiang Ning, the Marquis of Jin'an, when she first entered Jiangning, she received the grace of Lord Lin's help, and the Song family has not officially thanked Lord Lin yet!" ”

Lin Lian's heart jumped, he didn't expect that the inconspicuous young man in front of him turned out to be a member of the Song family in Eastern Fujian, and the brother of Song Jia, the wife of the extravagant flying tiger, thinking of Song Jia's beautiful and amazing appearance, he thought to himself: No wonder Yue Lengqiu dared to take off from Eastern Fujian without any scruples and lead his army north to King Qin, maybe he secretly got the promise of the Song family.

The luxury family has been raising the flag for ten years, and the other seven surnames have not received any special benefits, but have buried the lives of countless children for this war, and their power is even less than before the war. At present, the luxury family is regarded as attached to the feudal marquis, and the other seven surnames also have their own rewards, and it is not so surprising that the children hold some inconsequential official positions in the local or to the Eastern Fujian Governor's Mansion and the county divisions. The extravagant family has different aspirations, but it is really difficult to guess what the other seven surnames are thinking, and it is normal for them to be war-weary, but it is impossible for them to give up their vigilance against the court all at once.

Lu Jingyan, the chief general of Shaowu Town, was close to Song Bo and Lin Tietao, who were sitting behind him, and also turned a deaf ear, and the gang of generals and officers of the Eastern Fujian Army represented by Lu Jingyan fought a tough battle with the forces of the eight surnames of Eastern Fujian led by the luxury family for nearly ten years, and the hatred would not be easily resolved.

"It turned out to be Brother Song, disrespectful," Lin Jian turned sideways and gave a salute, answering Song Bo's question just now, "There are only more than 50,000 troops in Shandong, and they are still stationed in various places, at this time, there is a worry that the main force of the Eastern Captives is going south, and the military strength of Shandong is seriously insufficient, maybe it is to use the guest army to defend the ...... of Shandong."

"Lord Lin has a high opinion, and I have solved the confusion for the younger brother," Song Bo arched his hand and said, "Lord Lin is very famous in Jiangdong, and the younger brother has also heard of it in Dongfu, can Lord Lin allow the younger brother to be a little east in Jinan City?" ”

Lin Jian frowned slightly, he couldn't think of any need for Song Bo to meet him alone, he and the luxury family were already on the verge of fire, could it be that Song Bo or the Song family were not afraid that the news of meeting him in private would reach the ears of the luxury family? Besides, he didn't know if there were any children of the Song family infiltrated in the East China Sea.

"It depends......" Lin Jian said ambiguously, neither agreeing to meet Song Bo privately in Jinan, nor directly refusing.

As Lin Jian expected, after greeting each other, the officials of the Shandong County Divisions said that they would take out 50,000 cash in the name of Lu Wangfu to express their condolences to the Qinwang guest army temporarily stationed in Jinan Mansion in Jiangdong, Dongmin, and Liangzhejiang, and also promised that as long as they were stationed in Jinan Prefecture, the food and salary would be in charge of the Shandong Xuanfu Mission.

Lin Jian saw that Yue Lengqiu accepted it calmly, and when he talked about the matter of co-defending, he naturally would not risk the world's great opinion to refuse this 10,000 taels of consolation silver.

In Lin Bin's view, the Qinwang army in Shandong has no subordinate to each other, and has no direct relationship with Shandong, Shandong wants to rely on the guest army to prepare the enemy, in fact, it is a wrong idea, it is likely that things will be bad on this, but he knows that he is humble, and he does not participate in the discussion when he sits there.

If it weren't for the fact that the five battalions of the left army of Jiangdong Qinwang Division were under his command, Lin Jian would not be qualified to sit in the Ming Hall of the Shandong Governor's Mansion at all.

The guest army must report the basic situation of the army to the local governor's office when they cross the border, and the Shandong side also knows that the 3,000 soldiers of the fifth battalion of the left army of the Jiangdong Qinwang Division are in fact temporarily recruited people, so they do not attach great importance to Lin Tie. If it weren't for Lin Lian's coincidental guest in Yue Lengqiu's tent before noon, the Shandong Counties Division might not have sent someone to the Jing'er Lake camp to invite him over.

Anyway, since Lin Tie came over on behalf of Jiangdong Qin Wangshi, the comfort army silver couldn't divide each other too much, but they just exchanged pleasantries and deliberations during the banquet, but they clearly left Lin Tie aside. After all, the officials present at the Shandong county department are not to say that they are also participating in politics, councils or affairs, and the military attachés are also not said to be high-ranking generals above the rank of cavalry captain, and it is too difficult for them to deliberately curry favor with Lin Lian, who has a lower status than them and has no reputation.

However, it was not that no one in the Ming Hall noticed Lin Bin, and Brother Lu and Yuan Jianhai, the general of Zhenguo, observed Lin Jian who was drinking tea silently from time to time.

Lin Tie is not without a little reputation in Shandong, when he first entered Jinan Mansion, he sent troops to suppress the Zuo family directly as bandits, and also occupied Zuoguan'er Village as a camp, which still caused a lot of shock in Jinan Mansion.

In addition to the ancestor of the Zuo family as a servant of the household department, at this time in Jinan Mansion is not without a little power, the second eldest of the Zuo family, Zuo Guitang, is in the Lu Wangfu as a steward eunuch, quite trusted by Lu Wang Yuan Jiancheng.

The Zuo family was suppressed by Lin Jian as a bandit, and Zuo Guan'er Village was occupied as a military camp, Zuo Guitang knelt down in front of King Lu with a handful of snot and tears and asked him to administer justice for the Zuo family.

The personal guards of King Lu's Mansion are more than 600 people in a battalion, and they usually play with dogs and eagles, bullying men and women, but if they pull it out directly, they may not be able to beat others, so Yuan Jiancheng will inform the Xuanfu envoy to deal with this matter.

The Xuanfu envoy only promised to release the person afterwards, and prevaricated that the Zuo family had caught the handle first, that is, the lawsuit would be brought to the center, and the center would first investigate the ineffectiveness of the Lu Wangfu.

This matter will not be put to rest; In the final analysis, it is still Lin Bin's military power in his hands, so that the place can only be treated tactfully.

Yuan Jianhai read that Zuo Guitang gave him a few beautiful chicks, since he bumped into Lin Jian in person, he couldn't help but contribute a little to the affairs of the Zuo family, raised the teacup slightly, and said to Lin Jian who was sitting diagonally opposite: "Lin Dujian has been silent until now, and he doesn't have a little opinion about everyone's discussions?" ”

Lin Jian knew that the local forces were always intertwined, he sent troops to suppress the Zuo family, and sent more than 20 members of the Zuo family to Shandong County, which was considered to have left room for improvement, and he did not have enough manpower and energy to investigate the background of the Zuo family clearly, at this time, he saw that Lu Wangdi, Zhenguo General Yuan Jianhai suddenly spoke to him, and his tone did not sound particularly friendly, he put down the tea cup, and said with a smile that was neither arrogant nor humble: "General Zhenguo is in love, Lin is a humble person, and he really doesn't have a little opinion about the discussion of your lords......"

"Really?" Yuan Jianhai looked at Lin Jian with a slightly cold expression, "When Lin Dujian first arrived in Jinan Mansion, he advocated the occupation of Zuoguan'er Village without authorization, but it didn't make people feel that Lin Du's position was humble and light?" ”

Lin Jian thought in his heart that he was originally seeking justice for the Zuo family, and when the children of the Shizong family were noble, they were noble, but Yanjing paid the most attention to their prevention, and Lin Jian was not worried about what Yuan Jianhai could do to bite him, and said with a smile: "The Zuo family openly robbed the outpost of the left army of my Jiangdong Qinwang Division, and General Zhenguo felt that Lin had mishandled something, please speak up." The so-called 'if there is one, it will be changed, and if there is none, it will be encouraged', the admonition of General Zhenguo, Lin will remember it in his heart. ”

Yuan Jianhai's face was cold, where did he think that Lin Jian's little seven-rank capital eunuch would speak in such a tough tone, he was about to attack with a calm face, Yue Lengqiu took over and asked, "What is wrong with Lin Dujian's handling, and please ask General Zhenguo to speak up?" "It's good that Lin Jian is a member of the Chu Party, how can there be any reason to bully outsiders? Besides, Yue Lengqiu had the idea of leaving Shandong and returning to Jinzhong, so he didn't mind having a bad relationship with Shandong, and the worse the relationship, the more excuse he had to leave Shandong.

The officials of the Shandong County Division immediately realized that the Chu Party was supporting each other, and they were both guest generals, and Yue Lengqiu had no reason not to protect the forest. At present, the relationship is stalemate, which is very unfavorable to Shandong, and Shandong Xuanfu made Chen Xueyao busy coming out to play a round: "General Zhenguo also appreciates Lin Dujian's young age but rare decisiveness, and it is a blessing for Jinan Mansion to be able to lead the army to be stationed in Jinan Mansion......
