Chapter 115 The Distant Cousin
Leaving Jiangnan County, I changed to a ship. This time, the Jiangnan County navy was in charge of escorting. Although it was very windy and windy along the way, I didn't encounter any pirates or pirates.
Not a day later, when he arrived in Jiangdong County safely, Governor Lin Dongyang led a hundred officials to welcome him, needless to say there was a lot of excitement.
Talking about Shi Mingwen's death while chatting with Lin Dongyang, although the emperor issued an order to arrest the murderer Xiao Xinghan, he didn't force him much. Presumably the emperor also knew that Lin Dongyang was incapable of catching Xiao Xinghan.
Therefore, a general named Lin Han was specially transferred to replace Shi Mingwen's position, and was responsible for capturing and suppressing the rebels of the Tianxuan Society.
It has been more than half a month, but dozens of suspects have been arrested, many of whom are officials from Jiangnan County. Xuanhui's...
Let's say that Xiao Xinghan has done such a big thing, he ran away a long time ago, so can he stay here and wait for him to catch him?
But he has been tossing so hard, and now the whole Jiangdong County is in a state of panic, and the big guys are not in the mood to do things, and they don't know when they will be targeted by Lin Han, and disaster is imminent!
I don't know what the emperor thinks? Our Jiangdong County has managed to live in peace for a few years, and it will cause trouble if it continues like this!
Lin Dongyang obviously didn't agree with the emperor's move. It has not been a year or two since the Tianxuan Society rebelled, how could it be wiped out all at once?
The most important thing now is to let the localities recuperate and improve the economy. Once the common people can live and work in peace and contentment, who would want to rebel?
As the saying goes, those who win the hearts of the people win the world!
His Tianxuan Society lost the support of the common people, which means that it has no soil for existence, and it will gradually die out, and the same is true for other rebels.
This was also the mainstream opinion in the imperial court, but the emperor insisted on going his own way, insisting on sweeping up the Tianxuan Society!
This time the ministers are not good at admonishing, because it is said that the queen mother was shocked and angry when she heard that her nephew was killed, so that she couldn't get sick...
So the emperor is taking revenge for his mother, this is an act of filial piety, who would dare to persuade the emperor to be unfilial?
Tired of life Ang!
However, Xiao Chen knew that Tianxuan Society was Li Wanjiang's thorn in the flesh, a thorn in his side, and if he didn't get rid of it, he would be uneasy for a day.
If it weren't for the opposition of all the officials in the court, he would have launched a large-scale suppression operation.
This time he didn't show any great filial piety, but just used it as an excuse.
As for the Empress Dowager being bedridden in anger, I'm afraid most of the reason is that Li Wanjiang sent his cronies to be the generals of Jiangdong County!
Because the former Jiangdong County has been controlled by the queen mother and relatives.
As soon as Shi Mingwen died, Li Wanjiang snatched it away. Can the Queen Mother not be angry?
Naturally, there was no need to tell Lin Dongyang these words, but after listening to his complaints for a long time, he changed the subject.
Ask him what happened to Liu Changan, the pusher in Anyang Mansion?
Lin Dongyang said that three days after Shi Mingwen's death, he directly resigned from office and left Jiangdong with his family, probably because he was afraid of being involved in Shi Mingwen's affairs...
Xiao Chen could only sigh and shake his head after hearing this.
After Wei Yuntian heard about it, he was very disappointed. He had been thinking about that Miss Liu Xiangqin all the time.
Ye Baiqing said, what is there to worry about? You should be happy, now that Xiangqin girl is not a big lady anymore, you are more than enough to match her!
There is no need for the boss to go out, your brother and I can propose a marriage, where is his hometown? Brother, for your happiness, I will spare no effort to go for a walk!
Xiao Chen said that Liu Changan was a native of Jiangdong, and he did not return to his hometown after resigning, but disappeared with his wife and daughter...
Now Ye Baiqing didn't move anymore, it seems that Yuntian and you have no fate!
But why does a man have no wife? Where is there no fragrant grass at the end of the world? In the future, the brothers will definitely find you a lady who is ten times better than her.
The brothers were persuading Wei Yuntian, a brother from Xichang came to report, saying that a young girl outside asked to see...
Wei Yuntian's mind was full of Liu Xiangqin, and he immediately jumped up when he heard the words.
But the brother said that the little girl claimed to be our boss's distant cousin, Xiaozi Linger.
Xiao Chen was stunned when he heard that, I rely on me and my cousin? No, why don't I know! What Linger? I don't know.
Was it a mistake, her?
That brother said it was right, we have already cross-examined it very clearly, and we are looking for you, the boss! Speaking of which, Boss, you are so famous, it is impossible to make a mistake...
Is it? Let her come in and I'll take a look at who the fuck is?
"Cousin!" However, as soon as she came in, she saw a delicate girl who threw herself into Xiao Chen's arms, hugging him and crying loudly. Although the crying sound was deafening, but there was not a single tear, which belonged to the kind of howling.
Xiao Chen secretly sighed in his heart, thinking what are you doing, second brother.
It wasn't enough for me to spy on your younger brother, so I sent a little spy here!
What kind of cousin... isn't this Duan Linger?
"Okay, don't howl, your ears will be deafened by you, without a single tear, who are you crying for?" Xiao Chen pushed her away.
As a cousin, he is ruthless enough.
"But I'm sad. After traveling through thousands of mountains and rivers and going through all kinds of hardships, can I not cry when I finally see you?" Duan Ling'er paused and added a key sentence, "Besides, in this world, I can You are a relative!"
It sounds like memorizing lines.
All the people here are smart, and they can tell that she is lying at a glance.
Brand new calfskin thin boots, spotless green gauze light clothing, shiny and smooth hair, pink and white face, at first glance it doesn't look like a person who has traveled through thousands of mountains and rivers and been exposed to wind and sun.
The accent is wrong, the look is wrong, the tone is wrong, and most importantly, the behavior is wrong.
How can a cousin see her cousin so affectionate? Don't you know the truth about whether men and women give or take kisses if they just rush forward to hug and hug?
What's more, she was a distant cousin.
"Then don't be sad, I will take good care of you." Xiao Chen couldn't help being touched when he heard her last words, and his expression softened.
"Well, then thank you cousin." Duan Linger stopped crying immediately.
"Let me introduce you, this is Zhuge Xiaosheng..." Xiao Chen was interrupted by Duan Linger before he finished speaking.
"I know him, he is... cousin your brother." Duan Ling'er almost slipped his tongue, but luckily she reacted quickly enough to come back in time.
Before she came, Xiao Xinghan gave her a detailed introduction to everyone around Xiao Chen, especially this Zhuge Xiaosheng, saying that he is literary, martial arts, smart, and he is one of Xiao Chen's most trusted people.
"That's right, he is my brother, you have to call him brother." With three black lines on his forehead, Xiao Chen thought to himself that this is a little undercover agent, he is simply a little bomb!
"Brother Xiaosheng!" Duan Linger called out obediently.
"I don't dare, but for the convenience of getting along with the big guys in the future, so as not to make people suspicious, it's better to be a brother and sister." Zhuge Xiaosheng laughed.
"Yeah!" Duan Ling'er couldn't understand what Zhuge Xiaosheng meant, and happily agreed.
She didn't think about it, you, a cousin, came to join her cousin, what's suspicious?
