Looking at the arrogant and meaningful eyes, Liu Mingzhi couldn't help but feel a little uneasy.
"Forget it...forget it!"
He stared at Young Master Liu arrogantly: "Boy, do you know that Murong Shan is my adopted sister? How dare you..."
Young Master Liu looked at Zhang Kuang blankly: "I've only heard that Shan'er is the orphan of General Jin Yi. I've never heard of such a relationship between you two!"
The arrogant and rough hands grabbed Liu Mingzhi's armor: "Did you call me Shan'er? You have to call me aunt or aunt."
uh-huh! Liu Mingzhi looked at Zhang Kuang with a smile: "Uncle, the boy and Shan'er have already cooked rice. Logically speaking, it seems that the boy and Shan'er are closer. After all, although the boy and Shan'er have not gone through a matchmaker, But after all, we are married. After all, it is our business as a couple, and you are the outsider!"
Zhang Kuang's face became tangled and even turned slightly blue. He reluctantly let go of Young Master Liu's armor: "You and your father are neither good, they are both beasts!"
"Sleep, you're an animal; if you don't sleep, you're worse than an animal. No matter what, you'll get scolded, but the former is worse than the latter!"
Zhang Kuang was completely speechless because he also felt that what Young Master Liu said made sense.
It's really hard to decide between a beast and a beast.
Let him choose and he will choose the former.
Zhang Kuang sighed silently, the uncooked rice has already been cooked, and saying anything is useless, that's all, let everyone talk about their own affairs, there is no other way but this.
We can't forcefully separate the two of them.
"I would rather demolish ten temples than ruin one marriage. I can't do anything to beat the couple, but you left Shan'er alone at home and she went to Yangzhou, did you know?"
Young Master Liu's face was filled with joy. He had been busy these days and he really didn't know where Murong Shan had gone. Qinglian also didn't know that Murong Shan's plan to conceal the truth had met with Liu Yuan's plan.
"Shan'er is in Yangzhou?"
"The old man you said was in Yangzhou, the specific location is not very clear yet!"
Liu Mingzhi's heart sank. Liu Ye's intelligence was really powerful. When would the relevant department develop to this point?
Thinking of his experiences these days, Liu Mingzhi felt deeply that he had insufficient power to protect himself.
"Yangzhou?"
Liu Mingzhi started pacing with his hands behind his back: "There is no problem that Yangzhou must be the main altar of the White Lotus Sect. The key holy envoys, the White Lotus Sect and the Red Dragon have no other intention at all to support the ten thousand troops under the boy. Let the civil strife in Jiangnan begin! They can profit from it. When the army moves, it will consume food and grass like a bottomless pit. When the time comes, they will use their hands and feet to make enough oil!"
"Did you really only see one name on the list? If it's like you said, Jiangnan will be in chaos. Your father seems to know something, but his tone is very strict!"
"What does the old man know?"
"How do I know? Ask him yourself! Liuye's power cannot be underestimated. You know this yourself, but because you have established your own business, you can't bear to beg you, right?"
Liu Mingzhi nodded awkwardly: "That's true. People have to grow up. You can't always live in the shadow of the old man, right? I'm very tired of these White Lotus Sect thieves who have no clear purpose these days!"
Zhang Kuang looked at Young Master Liu with a complicated expression: "Not only are you tired, you have to think twice before you put it on me. To be precise, you got the opportunity to deal with the White Lotus Sect, but you just didn't dare, right? "
Liu Mingzhi trembled and nodded gently: "Oh, you are so surprised that you are dumbfounded. How dare you, a young official, to get entangled with that master?"
Zhang Kuang looked at the thousands of troops outside the gate of Yanyu Pavilion and shook his head slightly: "With ten thousand troops in hand, there is nothing you can do. You have no right to interfere in local internal affairs. This is the rule of the past dynasties! After all, there is a governor in Jiangnan! Do you have it? How sad! I didn’t expect that after so many years, he would still be so brooding about it!”
Liu Mingzhi spread his hands and sighed: "Actually, it is the best outcome to say that the master returns to the court. After all, he has captured several bandit leaders of the White Lotus Sect and captured thousands of White Lotus Sect members. It is already a good achievement. If we continue to investigate further, I’m afraid I won’t be able to handle it!”
Zhang Kuang pondered for a while and his eyes lit up: "Have you ever thought that His Majesty asked you to come to Jiangnan not necessarily to suppress bandits?"
Liu Mingzhi narrowed his eyes and thought of the three princesses' unruly behavior in Jiangnan, and felt a chill in his heart. Do you really want to take that step?
"Did you see it too?"
Zhang Kuang tugged at his beard and looked a little cautiously: "A few million taels of tax money can easily raise an army of 100,000 people. There are bandits, but that doesn't mean there are no other intentions!"
"In this case, why is this kid's title only Commander of the Suppression of Bandits? You must know that the Commander of the Suppression of Bandits has no way of interfering in local government affairs."
"Tell me the truth, do you want it?"
Liu Mingzhi nodded lightly, opened the window of the room and looked at the vast scenery of the Qinhuai River in trance.
"When I saw the list in the account book, I wrote to His Majesty, but there has been no movement these days. Now I feel nervous and relieved at the same time! I don't know what to do if I don't want the imperial edict to arrive yet I am expecting it to arrive. How to say it!"
"What are you going to do if it's found out?"
"I don't know! Ever since I intercepted the White Lotus Sect's money, I have been feeling anxious and wondering whether I should continue."
"Liu Mingzhi accepts the order!"
A sharp sound came from outside the Yanyu Pavilion.
Liu Mingzhi stared at Zhang Kuang and smiled bitterly: "What is supposed to come has finally come, I can't even continue if I don't want to!"
"I will eat your salary and share your worries. Go ahead and accept the order! It is not appropriate for me to show my face here!"
"Okay, come as soon as you go, kid!"
Liu Mingzhi tidied his armor and walked out of the room. He nodded to Song Qing and others and walked out the door.
After exiting the gate of Yanyu Pavilion, Liu Mingzhi knelt on one knee and greeted him: "Your Majesty, Liu Mingzhi, accepts the order!"
Thousands of troops also knelt down on one knee uniformly, without any confusion. Apart from the whistling flags, the quiet sound of a pindrop could be heard.
The thousands of troops didn't make any move at all.
Zhang Kuang and Ke Yan on the second floor of the Yanyu Pavilion looked at the thousands of troops on the Qinhuai River with shocked expressions.
Ke Yan clutched the window sill tightly: "Forbidden, are these really the new recruits we have seen before? Such a military is even more generous than the Longwu Guards in Yingzhou!"
Xiong Kaishan also looked out the window: "My dear, a Confucian commander is a Confucian commander. His reputation is not in vain. The 10,000 new recruits made him feel oppressed by the 50,000-strong army. If he hadn't known the whole story, he would have thought These are elite soldiers who have experienced hundreds of battles! Commander, the brothers under our command can’t do this, can they?”
Zhang Kuang shook his head slightly: "Someone is born to be a good general. If he was born thirty years earlier, he would have made great contributions to the Weihe war. It is not impossible for him to become a marquis if he is an iron-blooded man!"
"Emperor Dalong said that the land south of the Yangtze River is the land of fish and rice...Zi sent Tongyuan Bo Liu Mingzhi as the imperial envoy to investigate the case of missing tax money. Everywhere he went it felt like I was personally there. It is the right to make decisions when the opportunity arises, to kill first and then report later. Officials from the five Jiangnan prefectures will obey the orders. If anyone refuses to obey, they will have full authority to deal with them!"
"Your Majesty Liu Mingzhi accepted the order to express my gratitude. Long live my emperor!"
