Lord of the House

Vol 7 Chapter 64: The gift of a knife

After discussing the matter, before it was dark, Liang Wenzhan and Liu Tao left, and Lin Fu climbed the stairs.

Song Jia sat by the window, staring at the moon in the pond in front of the building, her skin was greasy under the light green veil, and she casually tied a ribbon behind her shoulders like a crow's hair, revealing a beautiful and bright face.

This place is just above the gazebo for the discussion just now. There are cornices that block the view, but it does not prevent Song Jia from listening to the details of the discussion carefully. Seeing Lin Fu coming upstairs, Song Jia sat up lazily, pushed the chess pieces on the table in front of her, and said, "It's boring to be left and right, sir, are you in the mood to play a game of chess with your concubine?"

"I'll come, I'll come," Xiaoman trotted out. She was eavesdropping here with Song Jia just now. The discussions between Lin Fu and Liang Wenzhan were all about military affairs and government affairs. They were very boring, and they couldn't make a sound. , so he dozed off and ran away first. At this time, he heard Lin Fu come upstairs and get up from the couch, ignoring the messy hair on the temples, rushing to play against Song Jia, and said to Lin Fu, "I can't get down with her alone. You want to help me...you can just talk to the young lady."

"Okay." Lin Bie said with a smile, and sat down against the table, Xiaoman leaned in his arms, and took the lead.

"You're so stupid," Song Jiayan smiled, staring at Xiaoman's beautiful and clean face for a while, then tilted her head slightly and asked Lin Bie, "I'm very puzzled: why do you have the heart to put Su Mei Let the girl stay in Jiangning no matter what, let this little girl come and ride on everyone's heads to make a fortune?"

Lin Bie hugged Xiaoman's slender and soft waist, and let her lean on his arms half-standing and half-sitting, sniffing the faint girly fragrance coming from her body, just smiled lightly at Song Jia's question, no say what.

"Young madam is so smart, what else can you guess?" Xiaoman, with sharp teeth and sharp lips, leaned on Lin Bing's arms coquettishly, bickering with Song Jia.

"There are so many things I can't guess..." Song Jia picked up a chess piece and dropped it.

She has long seen that Xiaoman's identity is different, and Lin Fu is not the kind of person who is easy to confuse women. Xiaoman is just a beautiful maid, more than his wife Gu Junxun and his concubine Liu Yue who gave birth to a son for Lin Fu. Children are also spoiled.

From Xiaoman, I can think that Su Mei's identity is different.

With Lin Fu's power today, it is not difficult to ask Su Mei to be his concubine, but to leave Su Mei alone in Jiangning, there is naturally an inhumane secret behind it.

Lin Bie refused to say it, and she didn't bother to guess, she just used this matter to start the conversation and said, "For example, the lord apparently recruited Liu An'er to surrender, but secretly gave Yue Lengqiu a murderous knife, I can't guess this either. Thoroughly. I'm really confused. Keeping Yue Lengqiu and Chen Hansan really outweighs the disadvantages?"

"The so-called gift of a sharp blade is nothing but a helpless strategy," Lin Fu said. "Since the refugee army moved eastward, there have been ten rooms and nine empty spaces in Huaisi, with millions of corpses buried, and the disaster is very serious. How to settle the Wanliu army is also a difficult problem to solve..."

"You are even more afraid that Liu An'er is not a rebellious generation?" Song Jia said, "Even if Liu An'er accepts the recruitment, it will only be a recluse for a while. Let him occupy Xuzhou, dormant for a year or two, and 30,000 to 50,000 elite soldiers are raised to become fat and strong. , and there are 400,000 to 500,000 brave people who can be recruited at any time, which is really a big problem. Compared with Yue Lengqiu and Chen Han, the disadvantages of keeping the three are less..."

"Hundreds of thousands of lives, but it's hard to lift a butcher's knife. It's not what I want to kill a lot of people," Lin Bie sighed slightly, but acquiesced to Song Jia's guess, "How do you think this chaos in Huaisi can be resolved?"

"I can't think of a good plan? I'm just wondering, this plan is not in line with your temperament, and who is it from your subordinates?" Song Jia asked.

"The world is chaotic, it's not like playing chess like this. The chess potential can be deployed, and in the chaotic world, you and I are just people who follow the trend. In the world of chess, I just follow the situation and defend Huaidong from military disasters. What's the plan? No plan, no plan?" Lin Fu laughed and didn't say anything else.

Seeing that Lin Bie was very tight-lipped, Song Jia stopped asking questions. She was distracted when she talked to Lin Fu, and Xiaoman had the upper hand on the chess game, but now she concentrates on playing chess and regained her disadvantage. Xiaoman abandoned her son and conceded defeat. You help me and win her again..."

"Little Nizi is just greedy, you have a lot of things to win." Song Jia smiled and got up to leave to rest.

Lin Bie lightly patted Xiaoman's cheeks and said, "Accompany me to send an old friend away from Shanyang..."

"Who is it?" Xiaoman asked, "You have an old friend in Shanyang, why didn't I know?"

"You'll know when you go..." Lin Bie said with a smile, holding Xiaoman's tender hand as soft as a catkin, and went downstairs.

Zhou Pu had already prepared a team of cavalry to wait outside the courtyard. Lin Fu mounted his horse, pulled Xiaoman to his side and sat in his arms, and slowly rode across Beicheng to the ferry in the north of Shanyang County.

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

Not far from the water army camp, a two-masted sea boat stopped at the ferry port, and Lin Bie dismounted before the ferry port.

Gao Zongting, dressed in a blue shirt, stood at the bow of the boat, saw Lin Bie coming over, and said with a smile, "I thought Zhizhi made him unable to get away from his busy schedule..."

"The wind and waves in the East China Sea are still strong, Mr. Gao won't leave for a few days?" Lin Fu took Xiaoman's hand to board the boat and bowed to Gao Zongting.

"To say that the wind and waves are bad, the wind and waves in the northern border are even worse, how dare you stay for a long time?" Gao Zongting said with a smile, "Besides, Zhang Yan is coming to Shanyang in the past two days, and it is not good to bump into him."

Xiaoman had never seen Gao Zongting before, but he also knew the great name of Gao Zongting, so he leaned back and saluted, and whispered, "My concubine Xiaoman has seen Mr. Gao."

"It's a blessing in disguise..." Gao Zongting and Xiaoman bowed back, but made fun of Lin Bie.

Lin Fuxuan smiled and said: "I am in the world, and I have no other wishes. I can only protect three or five people around me from the suffering of being displaced in a chaotic world. After Mr. Gao went back, he told Li Shuai that the Eastern Captives were in danger, and the Central Plains would be easy to settle. already."

"I hope so!" Speaking of this, Gao Zongting also lacked confidence, his expression darkened, and he said, "The king and the governor are very bright, and the governor really doesn't want to leave Zhenbei?"

Lin Fu shook his head and said, "I can't stand the wind and cold that cuts people's bones in the northern Xinjiang..."

Seeing that Lin Fu could not be persuaded, Gao Zongting said in frustration: "Chen Zhihu barely defended Datong, but the northern Jin was devastated, and he was afraid that the captured soldiers would be released, and Chen Zhihu could no longer take the seat guarded by Datong. An arm!"

"The Donglu escaped the siege, and the imperial court relieved Chen Zhihu of Datong's guarding post, and transferred him to the Central Plains to clear the bandits, which is also the righteousness. When the northern border is in danger again, Li Shuai will recommend Chen Zhihu to guard Datong again. Who else is in the imperial court? Will it stop you?" Lin Fu said.

"I hope so..." Gao Zongting said this sentence again, and it was more helpless.

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

Lin Bie held Xiaoman's hand and stood on the ferry to send Gao Zongting away. In the night, the brig was like an elves fighting the wind and waves on the mighty water.

"Mr. Gao is the one who the young lady can't guess is Mr. Gao?" Xiaoman asked Lin Bing slightly.

"Don't rush to solve the mystery for her first, let her be suspicious for a few more days." Lin Bie smiled and admitted Xiaoman's guess. Seeing that the night was getting dark, he hugged her and sat on the horse, and rode the horse slowly into the city. .

Lin Fu has been in contact with Li Zhuo since he guarded Huai. He had hoped that Li Zhuo would persuade the court to agree to secretly transfer all the elites from Jibei to the south by sea, and the combined forces would severely damage the refugee army. However, Donglu was not able to encircle Datong, and the court did not dare to use this risky strategy. Gao Zongting had been secretly coming to Huai'an for half a month.

Although Liu An'er would be forced to accept recruiting today due to the situation, his strength was hardly affected substantially.

For Liu An'er, all he lacked was time and space to recuperate. There are 200,000 soldiers and horses in his army, more than 40,000 elite soldiers, and 200,000 miscellaneous soldiers from Ge Ping's army.

At this time, let him rest in Huaisi to recuperate, and in the future, let him take advantage of the situation to make a comeback, how can he control him?

What's more, Liu An'er and the luxury family have been inseparable for a long time. Given Liu An'er's wariness of the imperial court, the possibility of him being in the same spirit as the She family is far higher than his loyalty to the imperial court ever since.

After the fall of Xinzhou, the passage from east Fujian to north to Jiangxi was completely cut off.

Yu Wangao did not want the entire army to be wiped out, so he was forced to lead his troops out of Jian'an Mansion and break through to the south. After climbing over the mountains and escaping all the way to Jieyang, the southernmost point of Dongmin County, it was barely able to stand firm, and it was no longer able to stop the luxury family from connecting northern Fujian and southern Zhejiang.

Compared with the strength of the luxury family, the line of defense established by Dong Yuan in northern Zhejiang was a bit thin.

Over time, once the army of the She family successfully breaks through the defense line established by Dong Yuan in northern Zhejiang, or invades Jiangxi on a large scale, will Liu An'er continue to dormant?

With the disaster in Haozhou first, Lin Fu would not easily believe that Liu An'er is the kind of person who has the ambition to save the people from water and fire~www.wuxiamtl.com~ Gao Zongting hoped that he could kill people here with a knife, and Lin Fu agreed.

Lin Fie is sure to seriously injure Chen Han San's department, but under the current situation, what's the harm in keeping Chen Han Sanyi's life?

Chen Han was a third-rate Ma Kou, and he had 20,000 soldiers under his command, including 7,000 or 8,000 elite soldiers.

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

Lin Fu and Xiaoman returned to the Love Enquiry Garden. Unexpectedly, the lights in the water pavilion were still on, and Song Jia, who said she was going to rest before, was still sitting in front of the window sorting out chess pieces.

"Young madam, why haven't you rested yet?" Lin Fu raised his head and asked through the window.

"I heard that the lord is going to send people off, I wonder who has such a big face to let the lord send them off at night," Song Jia said, "I want to understand, the lord is reluctant to raise a butcher's knife, but Li Bingbu is very concerned about the imperial court. Loyal and loyal, I don’t mind raising this butcher’s knife. I’m wondering again, if Li Bingbu’s butcher’s knife is brought up to the Jiangdong Zuojun in the future, how will adults deal with it?”

"Curiosity will kill people," Lin Bie said with a smile, "Why do you have so many doubts?"

"If it was someone else, he would never save Liu Tingzhou, so the concubine has such doubts."

"If I don't save me, how will I be different from others?" Lin Fu asked back, "When it's Li Bingbu's turn to meet me, the Yuan clan will be rejuvenated. The world is so big, how can there be no me? A place to live? I'm going to ask the other way around, how will the young lady deal with herself?"

Song Jiafan blushed and said, "I'm just a prisoner in a prison, a bird in a cage, and I'm not in my own place - this topic is really boring, I knew it earlier, I didn't wait for you to get here." My QT The room is open! More vulgar official QT room number [9167] Click to enter
