Liu Mingzhi smiled secretly when he saw Kong Dao's expression. He was not afraid that you knew who Du Yu's father was, but he was afraid that you didn't know who Du Yu's father was.
Whether he is promoted to the capital or transferred to other state capitals is all decided by the examination department.
However, the Kao Gong Department is only directly under one of the six departments of the Ministry of Personnel.
Liu Mingzhi glanced at the wealthy businessmen on the side and walked slowly over: "Uncles, what are you doing here?"
Even though Liu Mingzhi did not know all of the dozen or so wealthy businessmen, Liu Zhi'an must have known them all. Liu Mingzhi even saw several wealthy businessmen present at the wedding banquet between himself and Qi Yun. I think the people who could come to the house to sit at the banquet were the same as the old man. The relationship was good and Liu Mingzhi didn't show off his identity.
"Mingzhi, is it really you, the bandit commander?"
"Uncle Zeng, I haven't seen you for a long time. You must be making money in the medicinal materials business in Northern Xinjiang!"
"It's okay, it's okay. It's your father who gave your uncle some noodles, but my uncle has accumulated some wealth!"
"That's good, that's good. Uncle Geng, your family will make a lot of money selling the cloth to the Turks. My nephew is almost out of clothes. I will come to your house to get some silk cloth some other day. I must not give it up!" "
"What the hell, Mingzhi, you are out of touch when you say this. As long as you don't like your aunt, even if you empty out your uncle's Geng Mansion, your uncle will not say no!"
"Young Master Liu, you are polite!"
More than a dozen wealthy businessmen, both familiar and unfamiliar, came to say hello to Liu Mingzhi. Without exception, they all called him Mr. Liu or called him by his first name.
Everyone in Jinling City didn't know anyone yet. They didn't call him Master Liu just because they didn't want to make the relationship unfamiliar.
Liu Mingzhi responded one by one: "Uncles, what are you doing here at the Misty Rain Pavilion? Could it be that you were kicked out by your aunt at home to meet up with a prostitute?"
Of course Liu Mingzhi knew the purpose of their coming, he just said this because he didn't want to make the atmosphere too embarrassing.
Many wealthy businessmen laughed happily and didn't mind at all. If Mr. Liu talked to them seriously, they would not be used to it.
One of the oldest people pulled Young Master Liu aside, took out a ten thousand tael silver note from his arms and stuffed it into Young Master Liu in a secret way: "Mingzhi, your incompetent elder brother doesn't know what happened in Yanyu Pavilion." It's a big matter. Your aunt was crying and making trouble at home and asked your uncle to bail him out. You also know what your incompetent eldest brother is, and your uncle doesn't want to embarrass you. After all, you also have the emperor's life, so give your uncle a little favor. Be accommodating!”
Liu Mingzhi pretended to be embarrassed and thought for a moment, took the banknote and stuffed it into his sleeve: "Uncle, to tell you the truth, my nephew has received a secret report that the traitors of the White Lotus Sect are secretly gathering in the Misty Pavilion and intending to make a big move in Jinling, so I have no choice but to My nephew has no choice but to block all the exits of Yanyu Pavilion. I hope you understand! Once the charges are proven this time, he will probably be executed immediately. It is really a helpless move for my nephew to make this decision because of the emperor's orders!"
More than a dozen wealthy businessmen scrambled to covertly stuff a thousand-tael banknote with their hands. Outsiders thought they were greeting each other, but in fact they didn't know that they had completed an unknown money transaction in a covert manner.
Feeling the fullness in the wristband, Liu Mingzhi looked at the dozen wealthy businessmen with a faint smile on his face: "Don't worry, uncles and uncles, just leave the affairs of my elder brother and brothers to my nephew. Don't worry that I will get home safe and sound! "
Everyone was not afraid that Young Master Liu would accept the money, but they were afraid that Young Master Liu would not accept the money. They all hugged each other with cheerful expressions: "Since you still have official duties, Mingzhi, I won't bother you. Come and sit down at the house when you have time. My uncle will definitely treat you well!"
"Master Liu, I'm taking my leave. I have time to sit at home!"
All the wealthy businessmen left during the tea period.
Kong Dao couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this, and walked to Young Master Liu: "Master Liu, you still have the ability to send them away with just a few words. It's not much use even if my words are worn out. These are all famous people." I have to laugh with the wealthy businessmen with the same surname, and I would like to ask you how you sent them away, so that I can borrow them from you in the future!"
Young Master Liu smiled implicitly: "Master Kong, all you need to do is to use reason to move people to their emotions, and let them know that if you are upright, you are not afraid of a slanted shadow!"
Kong Dao muttered for a while with a deep expression on his face.
"Master Liu, do you need help from the soldiers? All the two thousand soldiers under the Jinling Governor's Mansion are here. The rest are from the Governor's Mansion. There is nothing I can do!"
Liu Mingzhi glanced at the cowardly soldiers and had nothing to say. Although he was from Jiangnan, he really looked down upon these soldiers.
He didn't stand still, and he didn't look angry enough.
"I appreciate your kindness, your Majesty. I have enough troops for the small Misty Rain Pavilion!"
"In this case, I will take my leave. I hope Master Liu will enforce the law impartially and not disrupt the business of Yanyu Pavilion. After all, it is also a beautiful place on the Qinhuai River!"
"Go slowly and don't send me away!"
Liu Mingzhi held the Tianjian and looked at Kong Dao's retreating background with his eyes narrowed, wondering whether Kong Dao did not hesitate to use the government soldiers to come here this time because of the pleas of these wealthy businessmen or if he had other purposes.
"Haha...interesting! If Shan'er hadn't told this young master, I wouldn't have known that Yanyu Pavilion had such a background, and I wouldn't have known if the local snakehead knew about it!"
"Commander, are you searching the Yanyu Pavilion?"
Song Qing, Cheng Kai, Zhou Baoyu and others walked up and looked at Young Master Liu excitedly, their eyes full of desire for military glory.
There is no title without military merit. If you want to leave a blessing for future generations, you have to kill the enemy as a slave.
Dalong's military merit system is similar to the military merit system spread in the Qin Dynasty but different. The power to restrain the military cannot exceed the civil servant group.
Liu Mingzhi was very curious about what kind of genius Li Yuanmin, the great ancestor of Dalong, was. The Dalong Law he formulated was the basis for Dalong to continue for six hundred years.
Not to mention other things, it is not something that ordinary people can think of, just that although military generals are controlled by the Ministry of War, they are not ordered by the Ministry of War.
The military generals formed their own line, but food, grass and military equipment had to be approved by the Ministry of War. This not only maintained the independence of the military, but also used the six ministries to curb the trend of the military generals becoming dominant.
Secondly, it is a matter of the common people. We put the people first. Wealthy merchant families can annex land, but they must abide by the ban issued by the imperial court. People in various prefectures and capitals must retain five acres of cultivated land protected by Dalong Law!
Just like Widow Wei, the daughter-in-law of Shi Laowu in Dashi Village, although her husband's pension was embezzled by officials, she still received some farmland.
Liu Mingzhi took out the banknotes stuffed by more than a dozen wealthy businessmen and handed them to Song Qing: "After finishing the affairs in Yanyu Pavilion, I will give the brothers extra food. Prepare more pork so that the brothers can eat!"
Song Qing put away the banknote and checked it: "My dear, you can eat mutton as a meal with a banknote of 170,000 taels, why do you have to eat such lowly meat as pork?"
"You can eat a few more pork meals. The brothers are not like you, the minister. They don't choose. Besides, you might not be able to afford it in the future. Who knows!"
"Okay, you are the commander, what are you talking about... get away from the assassins!"
Liu Mingzhi groaned as the arrow shot through the air. He was stunned for a moment and a mouthful of blood spurted out from the corner of his mouth before he knelt down with a plop!
The three people from Song and Qing pulled out their swords and guarded Liu Mingzhi with expressions on their faces: "Line up!"
Thousands of military guards immediately changed their formations to protect Master Liu and the others in layers of protection!
The onlookers immediately fled in all directions. A young man in his twenties put away a strange-looking iron bow, wrapped it in cloth and quickly disappeared into the panic of the crowd!
Suzaku Xuanwu immediately jumped down and chased the young man.
No one expected that with thousands of troops here, assassins would suddenly shoot and kill the bandit commander with feather bows and arrows!
"Commander!"
"Commander!"
