Wang Chengfu followed Cao Zi'ang down the mountain. Song Bo and his sister Song Jia sat opposite each other. They talked about the assassination and sighed. How could they imagine that life would be like this?
"Maybe Lin Fu won't stop you from leaving Chongzhou. Sister, are you willing to go back to Yongtai with me?" Song Bo asked.
"The world is so big, apart from this small area, is there really any place for me?" Song Jia asked, maybe she can go back, but can Mingyue go back?
"..." Song Bo was speechless for a moment. He couldn't even guess what his father thought about this matter. His sister didn't resent staying in Chongzhou, so he didn't want to persuade her anymore.
"You don't have to worry about me," Song Jia put her hands in front of her knees and whispered softly, "The She family wants to compete in the world and cannot tolerate any friendship. I want to watch from the top of this mountain how the She family will be beaten to death..."
"Sister, do you think Chongzhou can stop the She family?" Song Bo asked with his heart moving.
"You went out to sea on a ship from Jiangmen. What have you been thinking about for the past few days?"
"Some of his ideas are very confusing," Song Bo shook his head and sighed, "Lin Fu seems to have seen through the Song family's intention to protect themselves wisely, so I guess he will not stop his sister from leaving Chongzhou."
"It seems difficult for Tang Gu to compete with Zhang Yue in both the government and the public, but his power is actually not weak," Song Jia said. "Dongyang, Chongzhou, Jinhai, and Qingzhou seem to be scattered, thousands of miles apart, and it is difficult to gather forces, but the big ship is sailing
, a favorable wind is only three to five days away. Not to mention the bravery of Dongyang Township, unexpected changes occurred, who in the world can mobilize the Tianjin Navy?"
Song Bo lowered his head and thought. He was also considering some issues, but he didn't think them through as clearly as his sister.
On the occasion of Lin Fu's wedding to the daughter of the Gu family, Tang Gu's relationship with the Lin family will become even closer.
To evaluate the power of the Tang Gujilin faction, the Jiangdong Left Army is undoubtedly the strongest and most prestigious, but the military power of Dongyang Xiangyong and the Tianjin Navy should not be underestimated.
Dongyang Xiangyong was forged by Gu Wuchen, and with the descendants of Shanglinli Xiangying as the backbone, he was naturally the core strength that Tang Gu and the Lin clan relied on.
The remnants of the Jinzhong Army were under extremely difficult circumstances, and it was Lin Fu who got out of the predicament only after the Jiangdong Left Army marched north to Jinhai and jointly won a great victory over Jinhai.
This kind of sincere and solid friendship between Pao and Ze fought on the cruel iron-blooded battlefield, coupled with the lesson that the Jinzhong Army was betrayed by the Jibei Army before and nearly destroyed the entire army, and was later suppressed by Hao Zongcheng and other powerful officials in the court, is Lin Fu's.
, Lin Xuwen, Tang Haoxin and others resisted the pressure and organized the Tianjin Navy based on the remnants of the Jinzhong Army to avoid dismemberment and consumption. The generals of the Jinzhong Army actually controlled the Tianjin Navy. Naturally, they followed the lead of Lin Fu, Lin Xuwen and others.
It became the core force supporting the Lin family's foothold in Jinhai, and became an important force for Lin Fu, Lin Xuwen, Tang Haoxin, Gu Wuchen and others to control the Jinhai grain road.
The imperial court was dark and weak, and it was difficult to effectively control the local area. Not only Dong Yuan, Lin Fu, Lin Tingli, Xiao Taoyuan and other officials and generals who controlled local military power in Jiangdong County were arrogant and unruly, but officials and generals in other counties and even local forces had extremely powerful
A strong sense of self-respect in supporting troops.
At the age of seventy, Tang Haoxin took up the post of Shandong Xuanfu Chief, taking charge of Shandong's military and political power. Even though he was greatly restricted, it did not prevent his group of forces from taking root along the Jiao Lai River in Qingzhou Prefecture. Chen/Yuanliang, Zhang Jinxian
, Du Juefu and a group of officials rose up in Qingzhou. Although the newly organized troop transport troops around the Jiao Lai River were miscellaneous soldiers, how could they know that they could not be used in war? And around the Jinhai grain road in the Denglai area of Shandong, Hejian Prefecture
The formation of a maritime business group in the region is also an important force that supports Lin Fu, Lin Xuwen, Tang Haoxin, and Gu Wuchen to establish a foothold in the central and northern areas of Shandong, Jinhai and Hejian Prefecture.
Although Chongzhou is thousands of miles away from Jiaozhou Bay in Shandong, and even more than two thousand miles away from Jinhai. Whatever happens in Qingzhou or Jinhai, it seems that Jiangdong's left army is beyond the reach; or what happens in Chongzhou and Dongyang, the army in Jinhai
It also seems beyond reach.
However, his sister mentioned a very crucial point. Song Bo remembered that this time he was forced to go to sea by Lin Fu. The wind was not very smooth, but the journey of four to five hundred miles, coupled with the naval battle, took only two days to seize the stronghold.
Many days.
Dongyang, Chongzhou, Qingzhou, and Jinhai seem to be scattered everywhere, but they have an elite navy that can conquer the sea. The four places seem to be scattered and gathered together. They can make huge profits by mastering the food routes of Tianjin and Hainan to support the army.
, if the world is really going to undergo great changes, Chongzhou may have one more chance than the She family.
Song Bo sighed slightly and said: "My father's heart is as solid as a rock. Except for my sister, it is difficult for others to persuade him to change his mind. Besides, Chongzhou's power is weaker after all. Even if Lin Fu can guard the river mouth and prevent the She family from moving north, it will still be difficult for others to persuade him to change his mind.
Don’t you have the ability to drive the She family away from the islands in Changguo County?”
"The She family wants to encroach on both Zhejiang and Zhejiang. They think that as long as they can control western Zhejiang, it will be the time to raise the flag of rebellion again. How can Lin Fu not see through the She family's thoughts? He is afraid that things may not develop as the She family wants."
Song Jia stood up, looked at the peach tree outside the window, and saw Lin Fu walking into the courtyard door. She turned around and said to her brother, "He's here. If you can go back to Yongtai in the next few days, go back as soon as possible, lest he changes again."
It’s hard for my sister to figure out his ideas and thoughts..."
Song Bo stood up, opened the ajar door, and welcomed Lin Fu in.
Lin Fu looked at Song Jia, Song Bo's sister and brother, and asked, "Do you want to go back to Jin'an, Madam?"
"There is nothing wrong with living in the mountains, but I am too lazy to risk thousands of miles," Song Jia said in a lazy tone, "I will continue to bother Mr. Lin from now on."
Lin Fu glanced at Song Jia's charming face. If Song Jia asked to take She Mingyue back to Jin'an, he would not refuse. These two women were abandoned sons to She Song, and Lin Fu would not force them to stay.
Although it was necessary to stay in Chongzhou, Song Jian did not expect that Song Jian could refuse the temptation to go home.
"Then when will Brother Song leave Chongzhou? Chongzhou has ships to Jiangning these days?" Lin Fu asked.
"I have been away from home for a long time, and I am homesick. I wish I could have wings. Today there is a boat, and I want to leave today." Song Bo was also afraid that he would be unable to leave due to long nights and dreams, so he said, "Song Bo can't stay to watch Master Lin's wedding ceremony. It's disrespectful.
I would also like to ask Mr. Lin to pay attention."
"Then let's go to Jiangning by boat tomorrow," Lin Fu said with a smile. "It's rare for Brother Song to stay in Chongzhou. I will always do my best to be a landlord. In the evening, I will have a banquet in the house and invite Brother Song and his wife to meet Mingyue."
The girl is attending the meeting. There are not so many rules to follow in the mountains. Brother Song, please don’t laugh at me. I am regretful and polite..."
At that time, it was not popular for men and women to sit together, but as a prisoner, he was not that particular. Seeing that his sister didn't seem to mind, Song Bo said: "It is better to obey orders than to be respectful..."
When I went over to have a banquet at night, I saw Lin Fu calling out his concubine Liu to accompany him to the banquet. I really knew that he was not a very particular person. How could it be possible for other wealthy families to not be so particular? Seeing my sister, Mingyue and Lin
The concubine-maker Liu was also quite friendly with her, but Song Bo had another hidden worry in his mind.
He spent the night in a Buddhist temple. When the morning light dawned, someone informed him that the boat would depart before the sun passed over the treetops. Song Bo got up to wash up, but did not see Lin Fu and others. He parted from his sister Song Jia at the dock and couldn't help but say
"From now on, my sister will treat herself as a nameless person. Don't worry about anything. You can stay in Chongzhou as you wish. My father will not ask my sister to sacrifice anything for the Song family..."
"You are really arrogant. When you go back, you should behave like a young master and share more things with your father. Don't worry about me." Song Jia smiled as she arranged her brother's clothes and sent him to the ship. She was not angry at his words.
The She family sent assassins, and even this younger brother was worried that Lin Fu would rape him. It was really dumbfounding, as a daughter was really useless in this world.
Watching the boat leave the pier, Song Jia was thinking about what her brother said. From now on, she would just treat herself as someone she cares about. She climbed up the stairs and went to the top of the mountain to see Lin Fu practicing swordsmanship on the field in front of the monastery. Song Jia couldn't understand.
Sword skills, if we talk about sword skills, the two brothers of the She family are brave enough to be invincible, but what can they do?
Lin Fu put away the sword and returned it to its sheath. He took the sweat towel from Xiaoman's hand and wiped the sweat from his forehead. When he saw Song Jia standing there, he asked with a smile: "Song Bo has left?"
"I would also like to thank you for your generosity." Song Jia bowed and bowed.
"There is nothing lenient or unkind," Lin Fu said, "I have also verified that the Song family was not involved in the East China Sea bandits, otherwise I would not have let Song Bo leave Chongzhou. Although I am not a good person in the eyes of others.
, but I have good and evil in my heart..."
The corners of Song Jia's mouth were slightly raised. In the morning light, her smile was charming and charming. She thought about it in her mind and said directly: "I am bored living in the mountains, so I am bold enough to ask for a job from the adults so that I can pass the time in the mountains.
…”
"Oh!" Lin Fu looked at Song Jia in surprise, wondering why she suddenly made such a request.
"I will be a carefree person from now on. I have nothing to do with the She family or the Song family." Song Jia responded to Lin Fu's gaze calmly and indifferently.
Lin Fu smiled and said: "There are some trivial matters on the mountain top. I wonder if the young lady will find it boring?"
"I would like to thank you for your trust," Song Jia bowed and smiled sweetly at Xiaoman, "I will ask Miss Xiaoman to take care of me from now on. Miss Xiaoman will treat me as a rough woman waiting in front of the desk and do as she pleases.
"
Xiaoman was so unhappy that he kept his face and said nothing.
She was responsible for taking care of Lin Fu's desk in the house, but she actually interfered with this woman who was more seductive than a vixen. How could she be so happy? When it comes to comparisons, Sister Yue'er can't compare to her in a hundred.
, if Lin Fu's heart is attracted to her, how can she be applauded?
Although Lin Fu would obey the secular etiquette, the difference between men and women in his heart was very weak. Although he would not openly challenge the stubborn thousand-year tradition by appointing female officials to handle political affairs, he would not refuse to let capable female relatives come out to do something.
Song Jia's knowledge, vision, and judgment of the overall situation were actually far superior to many people. Lin Fu really didn't expect that she would suddenly ask to come out to do something.
