Lord of the House

Vol 4 Chapter 28: The sound of the nunnery

When Lin Fu woke up, he realized that Su Mei was a guest in the thatched cottage last night and left at dawn. He vaguely remembered the figure passing by in front of his sleep, his legs were split, and he was sitting on the soft couch, and asked Xiaoman, "Have I lost my way? "

"Your leg injury hasn't healed yet, so you shouldn't drink alcohol. It's hard to be polite, but today I heard from people in Ge's house that you drank happily last night, and came back drunk. How dare you ask if you have lost your way?" Xiaoman He crossed his hips and complained.

Lin Fu hit haha, perfunctory, and asked Xiaoman to bring him the official document on the table.

When he was not in Hekou, Changsun Geng, Yang Shi, Cao Ziang, Lin Jingzhong, Ge Cunxin, Zhao Hu, Lin Mengde and others were in charge of many affairs in Jiyun Society, Hekou and Prison Island. Back at Hekou at this time, he couldn't be lazy about these things, but fortunately, Xiaoman was skilled at calculating and writing by his side, and he could do it well.

Lin Fu woke up late and took the boat to Prison Island after lunch. He dragged his injured leg and was inconvenient to go into the cell for inspection. Called to the front office to inquire about prison affairs and understand the situation.

Since Liu An'er gathered a crowd to rebel in Hongzepu, many local criminals of minor and serious crimes in various prefectures and counties have been sentenced to serve in the town or in the military. Only the refugees have no roots, and when they join the army, they often run away with soldiers and armor, which is disliked by the military. When they came to Prison Island to be imprisoned or sentenced to prison, the number of prisoners in Prison Island has increased to more than 1,400.

Changsun Geng is a capable person, and he can also be an official. He is only limited to being a scholar, and no one has been promoted. He is in his thirties, and he is only a small official. If he didn't do it, Lin Fu left the river mouth and entrusted him to manage the affairs in the prison island prison, and he did everything in an orderly manner.

Lin Fu divided the affairs of the prison island into internal and external divisions. Within the high wall, including prison food, prison clothes, food and silver for officials and soldiers, and other materials, the management of officials and prisoners, and the personnel management of prisoners, was mainly responsible for Sun Geng; Many prison island affairs, including the purchase of a large number of labor tools and raw materials, the export of materials produced on prison island, and the management of boats entering and leaving prison island, boatmen, sailors and other recruits to prison island, are all in charge of Lin Jingzhong , in order to cover the many actions he made on the prison island.

Now that Gu Wuchen wants to transfer Yang Shi away, Yang Pu first greeted him in advance, and yesterday he mentioned that he would recommend Zhao Huyun to be awarded the title of deputy captain.

At that time, in addition to the imperial examinations and Menyin's background, the "official examination" by the head of the department of the temple was also an important way.

It is easy to be an official in the world, but it is difficult to be an official. The original intention of "official promotion" was to recruit some capable and talented officials to become officials. Now it is also an important means for officials to win over their confidants.

The "Official Promotion" is held every three years, and the number of places is limited. Gu Wuchen recommended Zhao Huyun to be the deputy lieutenant of the cavalry. Although it is a military rank from the ninth rank, for many ordinary people, it is a heaven and a world that crosses the people and officials. It also paved the way for Zhao Hu to fully master the prison island martial arts after Yang Shi left.

This is also Gu Wuchen's compensation for not letting Lin Bie interfere in Dongyang Xiangyong affairs.

Lin Fie didn't care about these compensations, not to mention that his eyes were not limited to Prison Island at this time, but mainly on Xisha Island.

He still has to live under the big tree Gu Wuchen at this time, and naturally he still has to be "loyal" and dedicated to Gu Wuchen, so as to make Gu Wuchen's foundation in Jiangdong more stable, otherwise he is not qualified to control Xisha Island without fear Chongzhou local forces?

Ge Fu, an old engineer, built a chair car for Lin Bie, who had a leg injury and could not walk. It is finely crafted, the surface is carefully polished, it took several days of work, and it looks exquisite and elegant.

At dusk, the chair car was parked at the southwest corner of the prison island. Lin Bie sat on the chair car, covered his injured leg with a blanket, and asked Yang Shi to speak alone.

"There is nothing to deal with here on Prison Island, and things are urgent on the Dongyang side. After you go to Dongyang, you will have less time to return to Jiangning. For this matter, you will go back to the city in the past two days to reunite with your family for a few days. When you come down, most of the adults will urge you to go to Dongyang." Lin Fu said, "The team of soldiers you brought on the island will also be taken away for you. After arriving in Dongyang, you will have your own foundation. Lin Jiyuan and Chen Shouyan are both good friends. …”

When they first met in Shiliang County, the young and vigorous Yang Shi also had a conflict with Lin Fu, and he was not pleasing to the eye. After arriving at Prison Island, he realized the gap with Lin Fu, and his mind calmed down and concentrated on it. Do things on Jail Island.

"These days, it's up to you to take care of me." Yang Shi let out a sigh of relief and said.

"What kind of polite words," Lin Bie said with a smile, "it's serious not to embarrass adults when you go to Dongyang."

Yang Shi smiled. He was awkward at expressing himself. In his opinion, Lin Fu, regardless of his talent or the reputation he had accumulated during this period, was more suitable to join the Dongyang Army, but these were all arranged by Gu Wuchen, so he couldn't say it. what.

"These are some of the military skills I've been thinking about recently, and they may be useful to you," Lin Fu took out a manuscript from his pocket and handed it to Yang Shi, "There aren't too many tricks to using the military. You know how wonderful it is to get along with your soldiers, and you have to cherish them..."

Gu Wuchen wants to rely on Dongyang Township Courage to help his official position, but Dongyang Township Courage will not completely become Gu Wuchen's private soldier, and will always represent the fundamental interests of Dongyang and the Lin family. That is to say, Gu Wuchen must first safeguard and guarantee the interests of Dongyang local forces , it is possible to pull Dongyang Xiangyong under his command; in this world, there is no absolute loyalty.

Although there are differences of interests between each other, fundamentally, Lin Fu and the Lin Clan, and the local forces in Dongyang have no direct conflict, and even more often rely on each other and rely on each other.

Leaving Gu Wuchen, Lin Fu loses the big tree to enjoy the shade; without the Lin family, Lin Fu will lack the most fundamental support in this world.

Gu Yingxiu is still the seventh lady of the Lin clan. Whether it is Lin Mengde, Lin Jingzhong, Zhao Hu, Zhao Qingshan, or more than half of the Wuwei in Jiyun Club, or Zhang Yubo, Liu Xilin and others, they all have connections with the local forces in Dongyang. close and inseparable connection.

Even if Lin Fu could not directly intervene in the affairs of Dongyang Xiangyong, he never hoped that Dongyang Xiangyong or the local forces in Dongyang would be weakened or even consumed during the crusade against Liu An'er. He even hoped that the local forces in Dongyang could use this battle to expand. , rise.

Besides, Yang Pu and Yang Shi's father and son are much easier to get close to than Zhao Qinmin, Chen/Yuanliang, Gu Siyuan, etc. If Yang Shi can truly grow into a general who relies heavily on Gu Wuchen and occupy an important position in the Gu Department, it will also be beneficial to In the future, Lin Fu did not have much reservations about Yang Shi's teaching, but whether he could comprehend it for military affairs depends on Yang Shi's own understanding.

*********

Returning to Hekou from Prison Island, Lin Fu went to the cemetery to worship Lin Tingxun. The Lin family built a special nunnery for Lin Tingxun in the cemetery to stop the coffin, and it was also convenient for the Lin family to come to worship.

Lin Fu took a chair car and let people push the nunnery into the nunnery, put incense in the mourning hall, and went to the Xiangyuan to listen to the abbot of the nunnery, Lao Ni, and read a few passages of scriptures. Strange to say, the old nun did not believe in Buddhism, but a stick of incense, which was widely spread among the people of Jianghuai County. The form of worship is also quite simple. Burn a stick of incense to pray, and the prayer stops when the incense burns out, and the Christian name also comes from it.

Also because the form is simple and easy for ordinary people to accept, it is widely spread, but there is no strict organization within the religion, so the imperial court and local officials can tolerate the existence of a stick of incense.

A faint scent of incense came from behind, Lin Fu turned his head to look, and Gu Yingxiu was bright and splendid, standing behind the door, Yingying looked over.

Lin Fu smiled slightly. If he wanted to see Gu Yingxiu and speak without disturbing outsiders, it seemed that he was only in this nunnery.

When the old man saw the seventh lady coming in, he backed out, and before leaving, he helped them close the door.

Lin Bie was quite surprised and asked, "Who is this old nun, who looks familiar?"

"Have you forgotten the nunnery on the Iron Curtain Mountain? She is Master Hui Miao in the nunnery on the mountain. You haven't seen her for many years, so it's no wonder you can't recognize her. I saw that she had nowhere else to go, so I let her come. Here, no one else knows that she is from me. You don't believe me either, Lao Liu met Zhao Qinmin here at noon today." Gu Yingxiu said.

"..." Lin Fu laughed, and he knew that Gu Yingxiu would not be too lonely in Hekou. Zhao Qinmin met the sixth lady privately, and most of the time he wanted to divide the Lin family. Gu Wuchen had to rely on the Lin family for many things at this time, but he didn't want to. He hoped that the Lin clan would be united, but Zhao Qinmin didn't think that the old man in this nunnery was Gu Yingxiu's eyeliner, and said with a smile, "As long as they can't make small moves behind their backs, they will go, after all, everyone is **** at this time. A grasshopper on a rope, who can't do without who?"

"What you said is very light, but I'm embarrassed," Gu Yingxiu said~www.wuxiaspot.com~ I regret that I didn't have the patience to tell Xunniang about that kind of thing before. The day before yesterday, Xunniang came to me, He also changed his tone of voice. "

"..." Lin Fu said mockingly, "I can only be considered a good subordinate, but not a good son-in-law."

"If this matter is over, won't Mother Xun hate me?" Gu Yingxiu said angrily.

"..." Lin Fu sighed softly. Many things can't take care of the children's personal feelings. In fact, Gu Wuchen really wants to marry Gu Junxun to him, but it will make Lin Tingxun and Lin Xuwen in Yanjing suspicious. The matter here is too subtle. It's hard for people to be confused. Like a luxury home, it looks monolithic on the surface, but isn’t there the same opportunity for outsiders to borrow from Shefeixiong and Shefeihu?

Gu Yingxiu didn't want to bother Lin Bie with this matter, so she walked in, squatted in front of Lin Bie with her knees bent, and touched his injured leg, "Will it hurt?"

"It doesn't hurt now, the long skin is still a little itchy, and I will be able to walk on the ground in a few days," Lin Bie took her warm and jade-like hand on her thigh, touched her tender cheek, and said, "You I lost a lot of weight..."

"I've been worried all day, and I'll be at ease when I see you back." Gu Yingxiu put her face gently on Lin Bie's thigh, enjoying the tenderness of this moment of cheating. Lin Bie held Gu Yingxiu's plump face, made her sit on his lap, looked close to her beautiful and moving face, looked at her affectionate eyes, and kissed her blushing lips.

Gu Yingxiu followed Lin Bie's wishes, but didn't dare to sit on his lap, for fear of pressing his injured leg, so she just gave the kiss ecstatically, wishing she could stick her whole body into his arms, so Unable to worry too much, he sat sideways on his lap, his cheeks pressed against his chest, cuddled and talked in the nunnery for nearly half an hour before leaving first.
