Chapter 227: Deep Meaning (2)

"ha!"

Zhu Gaochi, who was still slandering in his heart just now, couldn't help but feel very happy when he heard this.

He looked at Li Jinglong, "You have today too! Haven't you always claimed to be a good person? After this round, you offended all the people from south to north!"

Zhu Yunxiu's meaning was very obvious, but he asked Li Jinglong to investigate the deficits of each garrison, as well as the money and food situation over the years, to check whether some people have enough pockets, and some people have falsely reported it.

In fact, there must be someone in the local military leaders doing this. There has been no garrison who has not reached out to the court in recent years. In winter, winter clothes are needed, summer clothes are needed, salt, grain, fur, and various supplies are needed.

The reason why Zhu Gaochi gloated was because he thought the chore was going to fall on him, but he didn't expect that Li Jinglong would end up being the infamous.

Suddenly, he felt someone was watching him.

Looking up, I happened to see Xu Huizu staring at him with warning eyes.

Zhu Gaochi quickly restrained the expression on his face and looked down at his toes. It’s a pity that his belly is too big and he can only see his belly.

"It's still unstable!" Xu Huizu said in his heart, "It's joyful and can't hide things in his eyes! It's still too young and hasn't experienced the storm! Do you think this is a bad thing? You think it's a chore to offend people, silly kid! It's too young!"

Thinking in his heart, he looked up at Zhu Yunxiu.

The emperor's concentration also contained majestic and firm eyes, which made him quickly lower his head and dare not look at it again.

"This young dragon is not just about showing its fangs, he wants everyone in the world to surrender to his dragon roar!"

Li Jinglong felt distressed. He thought he could avoid the upcoming storm in the capital, but he fell into another pit. In fact, if he could choose, he would rather stay in the capital. Anyway, he had not been involved in the private salt matter.

Going to the local garrison to investigate the deficit is not only an offense, but also a way out of his own financial path in the future. His private business of the Li family relies on the care of those people in the local area. If you offend everyone, who will still be the one who is not a duke, the soldiers are all terrible, and it is good not to draw a knife from you...

"Oh...No!" Li Jinglong's heart suddenly moved, and he immediately thought, "The emperor has issued an order to promote a large number of military generals, such as the commander of the general Dushi in Shandong, Central Plains, Baoding Prefecture. Then I will check the deficit, and the one who investigates their exes, how can I say that he offended people?"

"And these newly appointed general commanders must have been instructed by the emperor to secretly cooperate with me. This is not a bad thing, it is clearly a good thing! Because it directly involves the future of dozens of garrisons and dozens of military generals!"

"After this incident, I, Li Jinglong, interpersonal relationships in the army... no!" He suddenly changed his mind, "The emperor asked me to investigate, then I should investigate carefully. You can't make small moves or take the opportunity to win people's hearts, otherwise good things will definitely turn into bad things and will be unlucky!"

Since he had figured it out in his heart, Li Jinglong immediately spoke, "I must do my best to investigate in detail." As he said, he continued, "In fact, there have been many diseases in local garrisons over the years, and it just happened to take this opportunity to treat their bad habits. Otherwise, the country would spend tens of millions of troops every year, but it would raise a group of cowards!"

"Okay!" Zhu Yunsheng nodded, "Aren't you afraid of offending others?"

"I am doing things for the emperor, that is, I am doing things for my Ming Dynasty. There is no such thing as offending others!" Li Jinglong said aloud.

Seeing him like this, Zhu Yunxiu felt relieved.

After all, it’s still Erya who understands him!

He naturally saw Zhu Gaochi's fleeting expression just now, and Zhu Gaochi didn't understand this at all. Even if he understood, he wouldn't be able to send him. Although he had a noble status, he had never experienced it in the army and could not suppress the situation.

"Think about it, are there any difficulties? Let me tell you and I will do it for you!" Zhu Yunxiu said again.

Li Jinglong thought carefully for a moment, "I must go to Huai'an first to help Xin Yande provide relief to the victims of Sizhou. I am afraid that I am not able to do anything alone!" As he said, he looked up and said, "We must also have a profitable arm to help!"

"Tell me, who do you want to follow you!" Zhu Yunsheng said.

Li Jinglong paused and was silent for a moment, "I recommend one person, Deng Duo!"

Outside the hall, Deng Ping, who was on duty with his sword, heard this, and his expression became complicated in an instant.

What Li Jinglong recommended was not someone else, but his third brother, now the head of the Deng family.

Deng Zhen, the eldest son of the Deng family, inherited the title of Duke Shen after Deng Yu's death, but later he was implicated and killed because of Li Shanchang's case, and the Deng family's family declined from then on.

Although he has a wealthy family, he is incomparable to other noble families in Huaixi. And several adult men in the Deng family were also scared because of Deng Zhen’s affairs. Over the years, he has been living his own life at home by guarding his family property, keeping a low profile and being cautious.

But then again, which man has no ambitions and is willing to live a cowardly life?

His Deng family does not lack connections, people and money, but opportunities!

For a moment, Deng Ping was a little dazed.

Listening to Li Jinglong's voice in the hall, my heart was filled with sourness, "My brother-in-law still remembers us brother-in-law! I... I'm really inappropriate to complain about him in private before!"

But immediately, he suddenly became alert again, "Isn't he not the chance to recommend the Deng family over the years? Why did he recommend it at this time? He won the opportunity for the Deng family, and the Deng family would thank him! My identity is the emperor's personal bodyguard, and intimateness is even more close to the emperor than him... Hiss! My brother-in-law is a scheming man, and he has to think deeply about it! He has always taken advantage of my family, and suddenly he is so enthusiastic, so he has to be on guard against it!"

~~

In the hall, Zhu Yunxiu looked at Li Jinglong and said in a deep voice, "Why is it him?"

"Sizhou is also the hometown of the Deng family!" Li Jinglong bowed and said, "When the old Ninghe King defected to the Supreme Emperor, most of the soldiers and horses he brought were from Sizhou. The Deng family has connections and has a good reputation. The Deng family can do better in disaster relief than those who don't know Sizhou!"

Zhu Yunxiu nodded and looked at Xu Huizu, "Where is Deng Duo's current official position?"

"I have no position, but I am just a registered assistant commander of the Yulin Guard. I go to the Governor's Office of the Five Army once every day on the first day of the month!" Xu Huizu said.

Just a idler who earns a salary!

"I've seen this minister several times!" Xu Huizu said again, "I'm quite calm and square. I'm not the kind of person who wants to do something all day long, and I won't make a fuss about my identity."

Zhu Yunxiu was quite surprised and smiled, "I haven't heard anyone publicly praise Wei State!" Then, he looked at Li Jinglong, "I will follow you!"

"I am thanking Emperor Deng Duo for his kindness!"

"The commander of the Yulin Guard is the fourth rank. Deng Duo will be given the rank of General Guangwei and lead the Central Army to cut off official affairs!" Zhu Yunsheng said.

Zhu Gaochi thought about it again, "This official position gives me great knowledge! I gave Deng Duo a general so that people don't look down on him. The Central Army Governor's Office is in charge of Sizhou Guards and Chuzhou Guards, almost half of the garrisons in their hometown in Huaixi. Although the official of the judging matter is a fifth rank, it is an important official position in the Governor's Office for the management of punishment!"

"It seems that not only needs to be investigated, but also arrested, and even sentenced! The emperor really needs to start dealing with the corruption of military officers from all over the country!"

~~

"You'll leave tomorrow!"

In the hall, Zhu Yunxiu continued to speak, "In addition, I will assign someone to you, you will take it with you!"

"Who will let me take someone?" Li Jinglong said in his heart.

"Bring the little stone!" Zhu Yunxiu said lightly, "Let him go out and practice with you, you must teach him well!" As he said, he was stern, "Don't teach those who are wrong, you must teach good things!"

The Emperor asked me to take my uncle with me?

In an instant, Li Jinglong's brain ran quickly, "In front of us ministers, the emperor called the uncle the nickname, which shows that the emperor really liked this brother-in-law. The young man was with me to go out for the business, obviously it was for this brother-in-law to accumulate qualifications and pave the way for him!"

"And there will be no peace in the capital recently. Cheng'en Hou was confined to his position and removed from his title. I don't know how many people secretly discussed it. Letting the uncle go out with me at this time may be the emperor's compensation for the Zhao family!"

"Well! The Queen's face was lost in the Zhao family. This time, the uncle followed me and was the time to earn the queen's face..."

Thinking about this, he immediately said, "I obey the order!"

Zhu Gaochi next to him once again complained in his heart, "Hmph, be nepotist!"

But then he thought about it, it seemed... it seemed that the men of the Zhu family had always been good to their brother-in-law. Wuding Hou Guo Ying and others were the brother-in-law of the old man. They were the most confidant in charge of the guards for decades. Not to mention the Chang family, the prince was also very concerned about the Xu family and the Zhang family.

At this time, Zhu Yunxiu looked at Xie Jin with his eyes and said, "Everyone else should go out, Xie Jin stay!"
