Boom!
Jia Cong's feet undulated greatly, and he stood upright holding on to the mast.
The last enemy ship blocking him in front was violently knocked open and split into two halves.
After the harsh crunching sound, Jia Cong had already seen the figure beating the drum in front of the cabin. The red cloak shone in the golden light of the rising sun, glowing with a dazzling light.
The two boats met and he jumped over immediately.
Jia Cong did not need to worry about the war. The only thing that made him uneasy at the moment was Jia Shiyi's words: "Since midnight, Miss Lin has always stood in front of the war drums to cheer for our army. Our army will not retreat, and the war drums will not stop." interest!"
Dong dong dong dong...
Bang!
The drumstick fell on the drum head and made a final sound.
The end of the hammer's handle had already turned red, and Jia Cong's eyes were sore from the sting, and his heart still felt a sharp pain.
After Daiyu saw the familiar figure, all her strength disappeared instantly and she fell with the wind.
Jia Cong rushed over and hugged her, feeling that Daiyu's body was cold and her breath was weak.
"Brother Cong, I didn't break my promise, I've got you back!"
Daiyu reached out to touch Jia Cong's face, but unfortunately she was unable to do so. She fainted just after saying this.
Jia Cong's ghost emerged and he shouted repeatedly: "Sister Lin...Sister Lin..."
Seeing that Daiyu was so angry and unresponsive, Jia Cong hugged her tightly and shouted: "Uncle Eleven, order people to clear the channel and return to the south at full speed!"
The battle in Shao Bo Town is still going on, and Jia Lian has learned about the situation on the ship.
Although he was worried about his cousin Daiyu, he still suppressed the uneasiness and anxiety in his heart and calmly directed the encirclement and suppression battle.
That's right, it's an encirclement and suppression!
The roar of artillery and killings razed the once prosperous Shaobo Pier to the ground, and the canal was filled with broken ship wood and corpses.
At this time, Jia Lian was no longer vomiting. He seemed to have matured instantly. He indifferently directed the officers and soldiers to gradually shrink their formation, compressing all the thieves and bandits into a small corner.
He didn't like surprise attacks, and he remembered what his grandfather Jia Daishan once told him: When the strength is strong enough, all conspiracies will be revealed. Only by fighting steadily can we maximize the results and minimize the losses.
"Sir, there are more than a dozen of them running away, and the general has arranged for people to chase them!"
A school captain quickly came to Jia Lian's horse, clasped his fists and reported, "Brothers fished something out of the river. Your Excellency should be interested."
I saw two soldiers carrying a huge Buddha statue, made of gold lacquer and copper, with a female form and three yangs, and golden light scattered in the sun.
"Old Mother Wusheng, White Lotus appears!"
Jia Lian immediately recognized what this Buddha statue represented, and he immediately ordered: "Strictly interrogate the prisoners immediately, and kill all those who are unwilling to speak. Send a message to the prince, saying that traces of the White Lotus Sect have been found, and ask the prince to immediately send an order to the nearby prefectures and counties , strictly inspect clans and temples in various places..."
…
There was a storm in Yangzhou City overnight, and Jia She's ruthlessness made the officials and gentry in Yangzhou finally see what kind of people the top martial artists in Daxia were like.
Including Tang Guangbiao, the prefect of Yangzhou, no official above the seventh rank in the entire Yangzhou city can still sit safely in the high hall, and they were all thrown into prison by Jia She. ….
No one in Yangzhou City who was involved in the collusion between officials and businessmen in planning the salt course escaped. Lin Ruhai also followed the clues and mastered a large amount of evidence of illegal businessmen in Jiangnan.
According to the originally agreed upon plan, he sent people to radiate the entire states and counties of Yangzhou Prefecture, striving to completely destroy the unscrupulous business group that had been entrenched in Yangzhou for decades and sucked the blood of the court and the people within three days.
Two of the six major salt merchants in the south of the Yangtze River were raided in just one night. The heads of the Bai family and the Mo family, who originally lived in Yangzhou Prefecture, were all imprisoned at home. The account books and letters at home had been collected and piled up in the Yangzhou Salt Patrol Palace. Shi Fuzhong.
Just when Lin Ruhai was about to take a closer look, the housekeeper Lin Fu hurried from home and reported a big news to him.
"Master, Master Cong and the girl are back. The girl's
Not a good situation! "
Lin Ruhai was shocked and felt dizzy when he stood up suddenly.
Lin Fu hurriedly stepped forward to support him and comforted him: "Doctor Li is already treating the girl. Mr. Cong please ask me to return home as soon as possible. Something big happened with Uncle Shao, which may hinder my plan!" "
When Lin Ruhai returned home, Li Shiqian had finished acupuncture on Daiyu, and Jia Cong was standing by the bed, holding Daiyu's hand tightly and saying nothing.
He quickly asked Li Shiqian about Daiyu's situation. Fortunately, Li Shiqian's answer made him breathe a sigh of relief.
"Don't worry, Mr. Lin. Fortunately, you came back in time. The coldness in Miss Lin's body has been forced out of the body by me using acupuncture. She can be cured by drinking the decoction for a while..."
Then came the complicated medical vocabulary, which Lin Ruhai only half understood. It's nothing more than physical weakness, coldness, a cold wind blowing all night, and overdraft of physical and mental energy, etc.
"Jinse, what happened? Didn't you go to Huai'an for a while?"
As soon as Lin Ruhai entered the room, she saw Jinse sitting on a chair wiping her tears, and Nanny Li beside her was comforting her in a low voice.
After seeing Lin Ruhai come in, Jinse was a little embarrassed, but he simply told the situation truthfully.
"Since Yu'er is fine, you should go and rest first."
Lin Ruhai, who was slightly relieved, said to Jinse in a warm voice: "Yu'er won't wake up for a while. You've been tired for a long night. Go and have a good rest first. We'll wait until Yu'er wakes up."
Although Jin Se wanted to stay, she glanced at Jia Cong, who was lying next to Daiyu's bed and was furious at anyone who touched her, and finally nodded and followed Nanny Li out of the house.
Lin Ruhai sighed slightly and put his palm on Jia Cong's shoulder.
Jia Cong couldn't bear it any longer, turned around and knelt down with a plop: "It's all my fault. I failed to protect Sister Lin. Please punish me, uncle!"
Lin Ruhai first helped Jia Cong up and pulled him to Daiyu's bedside.
He sat on the edge of the bed and touched his daughter's forehead with his hand.
Then he took Daiyu's hand, placed it in Jia Cong's palm, and said warmly: "I don't blame you, it's me, the father, who failed to protect you. Family and state affairs, family and state affairs, the biggest problem in my life, Lin Ruhai, is We can’t handle our country’s affairs well!”
"As soon as Yu'er wakes up, you will go north and return to Beijing. Children like you should not have to endure the turmoil in Jiangnan!"
"Your uncle is right, our family can no longer interfere with Jiangnan's affairs!"
Jia She strode in, first looked at Daiyu who was unconscious on the bed, and then touched Jia Cong's head. ….
He was full of anger, but said in the calmest voice: "Lian'er sent someone to report, they are from the White Lotus Sect. After a simple interrogation, it was found that there are clubs of the White Lotus Sect in all the major capitals in the south of the Yangtze River, and two of the Yangzhou Guards Thousands of households became religious, and that was how the Battle of Shao Bo Town took place."
The purpose is self-evident. When the officialdom in Jiangnan is in turmoil, it is the day when the White Lotus Sect rises up.
And who is standing behind the White Lotus Sect? There are at least a few people who want the lives of Lin Ruhai and Jia She.
The White Lotus Sect is definitely no match for the 100,000 soldiers and horses of the Jiangnan camp, but the more chaotic Jiangnan is, the more advantageous it will be for Liu Wei and Liu Ye.
Jia She didn't want to guess who planned this incident. Since they were all suspected, let's fight together!
Lin Ruhai quickly figured out the sudden appearance of the White Lotus Sect. As expected, he should not underestimate the Jiangnan gang.
They are playing each other's game, and the other party is playing their own game. If he hadn't noticed something was wrong with the Yangzhou Guards earlier, he might have had to give away the white-haired man to the black-haired man.
His daughter can no longer stay in Jiangnan. This is his weakness.
"Brother, when Yu'er wakes up, you will return to Beijing immediately with your two children."
Lin Ruhai stood up and walked around the room thinking carefully. After a long time, he said: "They have taken action. Even the White Lotus Sect dares to win over them. They are going to kill each other. It seems that our probing actions these days have affected the other party's death." hole……"
Jia She nodded, hesitated and said: "I will tell Qi Bei and ask him to leave two thousand troops at the Yangzhou dock in the name of suppressing bandits. These people are our own people, you can trust me. I'll give you my own soldiers
Leave some of it behind and I'm worried they'll turn on you again. "
Lin Ruhai did not refuse. This was already the decisive battle. It was a matter of life and death, and there was no room for carelessness.
He bowed to Jia She, but was supported by Jia She: "There is no need for this between you and me. Lian'er will follow you for the time being. With him here, the generals in Jiangnan will at least have some face. When I return to Beijing, Let’s talk to the saint again and see if we can mobilize an army of imperial guards.”
…
The situation in Jiangnan is indeed as Lin Ruhai guessed, and it has become tense at an extremely fast speed.
Liu Ke used the fastest speed to borrow the emperor's golden order to order all state governments to strictly investigate the Bailian rebellious party. Unfortunately, this group of white lotus bandits who were rats disappeared without a trace overnight. On the third day, the White Lotus rebellion broke out in Jurong and Jiangpu counties under Jinling Prefecture at the same time.
Although Jiangnan Camp decisively suppressed it, this incident was like a spark, burning up endless smoke in various places in Jiangnan.
When the salt workers at the Jianghuai Salt Field were attacked, Lin Ruhai immediately urged Jia She to go north and return to Beijing, regardless of the fact that Daiyu was still very weak after just waking up.
Although Daiyu was extremely reluctant to leave, she still stood obediently beside the carriage. After Jinse stepped forward and whispered a few words in his ear, Daiyu gave him a Wanfu salute.
"Auntie, take good care of daddy. Yu'er is waiting for daddy to reunite with auntie in the capital."
After Lin Ruhai finished speaking to Jia She, Jia Cong and Daiyu came forward together, knelt down and kowtowed three times.
After Lin Ruhai helped the young couple up, regardless of outsiders' eyes, she placed Daiyu's hand in Jia Cong's palm.
"Brother Cong, I'll leave Yu'er to you. Three years from now, I'll be waiting for you at the Fengtian Palace for a roll call!"
Jia Cong nodded solemnly: "Uncle and dad, don't worry, I will never let what happened to Uncle Shao happen again."
Lin Ruhai held back the reluctance in her heart, touched her daughter's hair with red eyes, patted Daiyu and Jia Cong's shoulders and said, "Go, after my father has settled the affairs in Jiangnan, I will go to the capital to reunite with you!" "
The carriage started moving slowly, but Daiyu did not have the courage to lift the curtain to see her father who was watching her leave.
Falling into Jia Cong's arms and crying bitterly, Lin Ruhai looked at the carriage going away, recalling this brief reunion, and finally couldn't hold back the tears in her eyes.
He smiled bitterly and turned to Jinse beside him and said, "Am I embarrassed? I claim to be loyal to the country and pray for the people. But in the end, I can't even protect my wife and daughter. Do you think it's worth it for me to do all this?"
Jinse, with red eyes, shook her head, wiped the tears on her face with a handkerchief, and replied softly: "Master, do you still remember what Madam said before she died? The greatest luck in her life is to marry a real Gentleman."
Lin Ruhai said to herself: "A gentleman is unscrupulous in his demands, and his demands are justified. This was my original ambition, but now I don't know if the way I insist on is right or not!"
