"The concubine is the righteous daughter adopted by the Duke of Yongtai Bo Song, the Duke of Mengpengcheng County will not abandon it, she is subordinate to the book, she has been in the military department for many years, and there is no one to take care of the Queen Mother, and the Duke of Pengcheng County specially ordered the concubine to come and wait for the Queen Mother to send her!" Gu Junxun and other female dependents moved to Dongyuan and asked the Queen Mother to come to peace, and Song Jia worshiped and accepted her own family......

The Empress Dowager Liang was full of suspicions, the Song family only surrendered to Huaidong during the war in eastern Fujian, how could Song Fu's adopted daughter have been working by Lin Lian's side for a long time? is such a beautiful and wonderful person, is it so simple for Lin Lianshan to keep her by his side and do things with books?

Song Jia also couldn't say what she was suffering from, she and Hao Mingyue were captured in the mountain temple, and then the luxury family sent someone to assassinate them, so she gave Lin Bind physically and mentally. The morality of the world, "follow the father at home, marry the husband", don't say that the luxury family will not be scolded if she sends someone to assassinate her, that is, she was not martyred immediately when she was captured, it was already her immorality, and it was her 10,000 no-Song family attached to Huaidong is true, but Song Jia's true identity will never see the light.

But Song Jia can't do it without an identity, so Lin Jian came up with a compromise solution, Song Jia turned from Song Fu's biological daughter to an adopted daughter, which can be regarded as a unified caliber and a cover.

In addition to the very limited number of parties, how many people know about it, even within the Song family, only the three or five core personnel know? Even if the Empress Dowager Liang was full of suspicion, she had to believe it, and even if she didn't believe it, she couldn't accept Pengcheng Gonglin to tie her side and press this nail.

When Miao Shuo and the other courtiers heard this, their hearts were just suddenly shocked: No wonder how the Song clan surrendered to Huaidong so easily, it turned out that there had been collusion for a long time.

When Lin Jian learned in Hangzhou that Gao Zongting led his troops into the imperial city, he knew that the general trend was already in the hands of Huaidong, and it was not difficult to expel the Zhejiang-Fujian army from Jiangning, but the really difficult thing was to settle the situation in Jiangning as quickly as possible.

The situation in Jiangning was settled, and it was not simply a matter of sending troops to occupy Jiangning City.

It is true that Huaidong's soldiers and horses can directly control Jiangning City, but the annual tax of seven or eight million taels of silver, which was controlled by the former Jiangning regime, including the two Huai salt taxes, is not something that Huaidong can immediately control.

Emperor Yongxing abandoned Jiangning and fled westward, self-destructing the Great Wall, but after all, he was still the lord of the Ninth Five-Year Plan and the lord of the whole world, including the officials of the six ministries fled to Luzhou.

Perhaps the local government and county will not escort the tax money and grain to Luzhou, and it is more likely that the tax will be intercepted first to wait and see the situation......

In order to maintain its own tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, Huaidong has used its current financial resources to the extreme, but in order to maintain the operation of the military and political systems in Huaixi, Jinghu, and Jiangzhou, Jiangning needs to allocate sufficient money and food on a quarterly basis...... Without money and food, even if Dong Yuan, Liu Wenmu, Yue Lengqiu and others take care of the overall situation and have great ability, the situation in Jinghu, Huaixi, and Xiangzhou may collapse quickly - in the end, it will only make the luxury family gain more breathing space in Jiangxi and Hunan, and Luo Xiancheng's Changle army will also take the opportunity to make chaos and occupy Jinghu, and it is even more impossible for Yan Yu to give up the great opportunity of the southern chaos.

Especially after the autumn, the local government and county have not yet paid the most important autumn tax of this year, Jiangning's supply to Jinghu and Huaixi and other places has also been cut off for nearly two months, and Yue Lengqiu led 40,000 soldiers and horses in Chizhou to temporarily rely on Dongyang Mansion to barely support - this situation will continue for another three or five months, if the local government and county intercept this year's autumn tax for three or five months, there may be a big mess at any time......

Lin Jian had to restore the operation of the court as quickly as possible, but Emperor Yongxing was obviously not going to bow his head easily and return to Jiangning to fall into Huaidong's trap. If Emperor Yongxing died in Luzhou and did not return to Jiangning, and the situation was delayed for three or five months, the whole situation would be quite tricky - the righteous name of the Empress Dowager Liang was particularly important at this time.

With the Empress Dowager Liang in the presence, Huaidong has the reputation of directly passing on the edict to the world, and even more extremely, it can even directly set up Yuan Jianhai, the king of Hailing, as the supervisor of the country, headed by Lin Xuwen, Huang Jinnian and others, to re-establish a temporary court in Jiangning to maintain the operation of the entire system, and order the local government and county to pay the autumn tax and silver to Jiangning first.

has a righteous name, Yue Lengqiu, Dong Yuan, Liu Wenmu and others, and it is possible that they will be safe with Huaidong; If there is no righteous name, Yue Lengqiu, Dong Yuan and others will definitely bow their heads to Huaidong?

At the same time, the Empress Dowager Liang is obviously not a very good puppet who will be safe and self-serving, she will quickly figure out her own value, and will in turn coerce Huaidong to make concessions, and may even be tempted to break away from Huaidong's grasp - Lin Jian needs the Empress Dowager Liang to leave for Jiangning immediately, but Qin Chengzu, Lin Mengde and others are all performing their duties, and they can't ask Gu Junxun to follow the Queen Mother closely, Gu Yingsleeve is also limited by her identity, and she can't directly serve as a female official next to the Queen Mother, Huaidong can personally control the candidates of the Empress Dowager Liang, except for Song Jia, there is no other more suitable candidate.

After Hangzhou learned that Gao Zongting led his troops to retreat to the imperial city, Lin Jian discussed with Song Fu and others, and decisively sent Song Jia back to Chongzhou to "return the Empress Dowager to the court".

Dominate the world, leading troops to fight and fight on the battlefield is always only a part.

************

"If you want the mourning family to leave for Jiangning immediately, you can also leave," the Empress Dowager Liang opened her cloudy white eyes and said in a hoarse voice, "But the old woman of the mourning family has never seen the world, where will she preside over state affairs?" After the mourning family arrived in Chongzhou, I heard that Shen Rong, the prefect of Weiyang, was quite famous, the emperor abandoned Jiangning to patrol Huaixi, Jiangning stayed behind Chen Xiang Chen Xiyan is also a loyal minister, and the old Yongchang Hou Yuan returned to the government to run around for the imperial family, and the former Huai'an prefect and Huaixi military envoy Liu Tingzhou also had talents to create...... I think they can work with the county prince of Pengcheng to share the worries of the mourning family about national affairs! ”

The Empress Dowager Liang ignored Song Jia and looked at Gu Junxun.

Although Gu Junxun is virtuous, but military and political affairs are not her strengths, Qin Chengzu, Lin Mengde and others excluded the Queen Mother, and Lin Jian was anxious to ask the Queen Mother to return to the court and preside over the overall situation, and Song Jia was the one who could make up her mind in this matter - this was also the original intention of Lin Jian to send Song Jia back to Chongzhou.

The Empress Dowager Liang's conditions for returning to the dynasty were not sure what Gu Junxun could handle, but he rashly agreed, for fear that the Empress Dowager would immediately draft an edict. If Huaidong wants to change the facts, he will lose his moral reputation, and he will have to bear more unexpected risks, Gu Qunxun just said: "The affairs of this country, the queen mother can't understand it, and the concubine can't understand it......"

At this time, the people in Chongzhou didn't know that Chen Xiyan had passed away, and Song Jia smiled beside him: "The will of the Queen Mother, who in the world dares to disobey it?" However, the Queen Mother is still in power, and the siege of Jiangning can almost be solved. Chen Xiang is in Jiangning City, since the Queen Mother admires Chen Xiang so much, why not go back to Jiangning first to discuss with Chen Xiang before deciding on other policies? In addition to Chen Xiang, there are also many officials and nobles who stayed in Jiangning, and they are all loyal and trustworthy people...... "Looking at the Queen Mother, I saw that although her body was thin and her eyes were cloudy, she was really a very powerful character, no wonder she turned her hands into clouds and covered her hands for rain for so many years, thinking that she was really good at picking people, and the few people she picked were characters who were extremely unhappy in Huaidong's heart, and her spirit of speaking also secretly squeezed the relationship between her and Gu Junxun......

Song Jia didn't worry about what the main room would think, she was demolished in the inner house, and took 10,000 steps back and said that Lin Lian's heart was like a mirror, and how many women in the inner house could fight for the sky?

Listening to Song Jia's beating, she insisted on delaying this matter, the Queen Mother Liang frowned, and simply closed her eyes, not believing that she would not move, and Huaidong could tie her up to Jiangning......

"The concubine Bento Queen Mother promised to come down, so let people arrange the return of the court!" Song Jia said, standing up and going to arrange, it is clear that there is a strong bow of the overlord, the prince of Hailing inside and out, almost all of them have been replaced by Huaidong's manpower, and the housekeeper of Dongyuan is not someone else, it is Zhao Hu and his mother Zhao Chen......

The Empress Dowager Liang opened her eyes, glared at Song Jia resentfully, and said: "Nanyang and Haozhou may not be able to take care of it, but if you sail up from Chongzhou and pass through Weiyang Mansion, the mourning family wants to see Shen Rong?" ”

The Liang family is trapped in Chongzhou, and they can know some news outside, but they are also worried that Huaidong deliberately leaked it to them, if they don't know what the situation is, they will rashly go to Jiangning, even if Lin Jian depends on her for any conditions, she doesn't know if it is possible that Huaidong deliberately dug a pit waiting for her to jump in.

It has long been no secret that Shen Rong and Huaidong are enemies, and Yuan Guizheng is beyond the reach of the whip, and the Liang family insists on seeing Shen Rong before entering Jiangning.

"The Queen Mother passed the decree today, maybe when the fleet passes Weiyang, Lord Shen will be able to rush to the riverside in time to meet him...... "As long as Shen Rong is not allowed to lead troops into Jiangning, there will be no big problems, and Song Jia can't let the old witch make things freeze here, and help people tie them up and go to Jiangning, it's too ugly."

"King Hailing is also filial to the mourning family, the mourning family is old, they miss the old and can't bear to be separated, and there are a few old people who are used to it......" Queen Mother Liang chattered like a family, obviously didn't want her and King Hailing to be controlled separately from Huaidong.

Song Canon agreed to it, and if he couldn't agree, he used the excuse to tow it to Jiangning for further discussion, and the boat was already ready at the Dongjiang Wharf in Xincheng, waiting for the Queen Mother to move.

As far as Lin Jian is concerned, as long as it is a condition that can be put on the table to negotiate, it is not harmful, I am afraid that the Empress Dowager Liang and the King of Hailing will have some conspiracy behind their backs - the current situation is very fragile, and it can't withstand too many conspiracies, Song Jia came over, mainly to prevent the Empress Dowager Liang and the King of Hailing from secretly contacting and plotting with other forces, and nothing else is restricted......

After discussing here, they immediately prepared to move back to the court, and the carriage, horses, and guards were also ready.

King Hailing and the Queen Mother also took refuge in Chongzhou, and there were no precious belongings to pack. Even if they are serving closely, in addition to Miao Shuo, Zuo Guitang, and Princess Yuanyan of Yangxin, the three palace maids who are not young have been with each other; In addition to the princess Tian and his young son, King Hailing has no other trustworthy people around him, and Shi Gaoqiang, the head of the palace, is still sent by Emperor Yongxing.

Even if Gao Qiang expressed 10,000 loyalty at this time, they didn't dare to trust it, who knows if he had 100,000 loyalty in front of Huaidong? However, Gao Qiang also had to go to Jiangning with him.
