Ning Weimo poured Lin Ye a cup of tea, then sat down opposite Lin Ye with a smile.
He asked: "The general's anger today seems to have not subsided?"
Lin Ye: "This anger should be yours, so you owe me another favor."
Ning Weimo said: "Forget it, but the general has spoken, and I only owe the general a favor. I feel embarrassed."
He asked: "How about I owe one more?"
Lin Ye glanced at him and felt that he was careless.
Ning Weimo, no matter in terms of face or mind, is definitely a person who can rival Lin Ye.
Ning Weimo smiled and said: "The general has lost his temper. Some people will be frightened."
He stood up and went to bring Lin Ye some dried fruits and snacks.
"What they want to test is exactly whether the general dares to lose his temper."
Ning Weimo said: "Some people have been dishonest recently and go around to provoke and incite."
He took a piece of snack and placed it in front of Lin Ye: "They feel that the general is now alone."
"Dayu's troops in Guzhu are only about 50,000. Those people think that the general can't be tough now."
"They want to test. If the general loses his temper, they will shrink back. If the general does not lose his temper, then they will push forward."
"Today I will test the General on this, and tomorrow I will test the General on that. The General never loses his temper, so they feel that the General is afraid of them."
He sprinkled a plate of melon seeds around the snack.
Ning Weimo said: "A group of young people gathered around, talking all over the place. If the general tolerates it, they will take action. If the general tolerates it no longer, they will attack in groups."
Lin Ye said: "Shouldn't their temptation come to you?"
Ning Weimo said seriously: "I have no soldiers, and they look down on me."
Lin Ye grabbed a handful of melon seeds and cracked them up.
Ning Weimo said: "Although they didn't come to me directly, of course this matter must be blamed on me. The general also said just now that I owe the general a favor."
Lin Ye: "Don't worry about it."
Ning Weimo: "It's necessary. The general can ignore it, but I can't ignore it. I'm not a dishonest person."
Lin Ye: "..."
Ning Weimo smiled and said: "In today's matter, if the general starts killing, they will shrink back appropriately. They will feel that the general dares to take action."
He added a handful of melon seeds to the place where Lin Ye had just grabbed a handful of melon seeds.
"But they won't give up and will continue to test until they find out the general's true bottom line."
Lin Ye: "Master Ning, what do you think they want?"
Ning Weimo: "I want the general to compromise and feel that they are not easy to bully."
After saying this, he stood up and walked around saying: "They want their power back, that's all."
Having said this, he turned back to look at Lin Ye: "Originally, Lone Bamboo's power was in their hands. Lone Bamboo destroyed the country. It was the Tong family that was unlucky. They didn't have that many people who were really loyal, and they didn't have that many people who felt sorry for themselves. Qi."
He brought over some fresh fruits.
"Their goal is to let the general know that they are not so obedient, unless the general meets their conditions, which of course will allow them to return to the heights of power."
Ning Weimo said: "If you want me to see it, I owe the general one more favor. If we put together a pair, the general will kill one more time?"
Lin Ye looked at him with squinted eyes.
Ning Weimo said: "They even dare to do things like forcing the general to open a position, and they will do something even more outrageous in the future."
He placed the fresh fruit in front of Lin Ye.
"Instead of waiting for them to continue to conquer the general's army, the general should take one step ahead of them and conquer their army."
Lin Ye: "You only owe me two favors, but you want me to leave a bad name?"
Ning Weimo said seriously: "After all, I want to stay here for a long time. The general may leave one day, so I will be the good guy and the bad guy will be the general. It is 100% suitable."
Lin Ye's eyes narrowed again.
Ning Weimo said: "When a general launches a killing spree, he always confiscates homes and destroys families. The things he confiscates..."
He looked at Lin Ye.
Lin Ye was also looking at him.
Ning Weimo smiled: "As long as it's not too small, I will pretend not to see it."
Lin Ye said: "If the emperor asks about this matter in the future, of course you will blame it all on me."
Ning Weimo: "What the general said is not wrong at all."
Lin Ye: "If the emperor asks, Lin Ye killed so many people, ransacked so many homes, and how many things he secretly withheld..."
Ning Weimo said: "The general is overly worried. When Your Majesty asked, I naturally replied that I didn't know, because the general had intercepted things, and I didn't dare to ask, let alone check."
Lin Ye: "That's beautiful."
Ning Weimo: "Compare your heart to your heart."
Lin Ye: "I have seen many villains."
Ning Weimo: "General, do you want to say that you are not as good as me?"
Lin Ye: "I'm not as magnanimous as you."
Ning Weimo laughed.
He said: "In fact, His Majesty may not ask about this matter. Except for me, no one else dares to complain in front of His Majesty."
Lin Ye said: "There must be a lot of people who want to kill you, but they are not as convenient as I am now. After all, I have written a memorial before, saying that the thieves in Guzhu have assassinated you once, but failed, and the thieves are even more undying."
Ning Weimo said: "General...you are joking."
Lin Ye: "Then I'll be the bad guy, and you'll be the good guy."
After finishing speaking, he stood up and said, "Master Ning, I heard that Gaoliu County, three hundred miles away, had heavy spring rains a few days ago and there was a flood."
Ning Weimo stood up: "Is there such a thing? Then I'm going to have a look. I'm going to have a look tomorrow morning."
Lin Ye: "Floods are a big deal."
Ning Weimo: "What the general said is that flooding is a serious matter, so I will pack my things now and leave immediately."
Lin Ye said: "Master Ning has worked hard."
Ning Weimo: "It's the generals who work hard."
This guy actually did what he said. After only an hour, he packed up his things, took his guards with him, and left Yangzi City by car.
That night.
Lin Ye walked into the granary. He felt that there were too many hidden dangers in the granary.
It's early summer, the weather is dry, and there are no reasonable protective measures. How can this be done?
So, a moment later a fire broke out in the granary, although it only burned a pile of fodder.
After another half an hour, Wu Lingwei mobilized troops and horses to surround the granary.
Early the next morning, in the wide open space in front of the Yangzicheng Palace, Lin Ye came so close to the palace for the first time, and took a closer look at the majestic palace for the first time.
But he still didn't go in.
He sent people around to beat gongs and drums, and asked the people to come here to tell them that he had something very important to announce.
Of course, members of the major families in the city will also be present. Those who are not present today will be treated as the suspects who set the granary on fire yesterday.
Before long, more and more people were gathering here.
By noon, the open space was almost packed with people.
Lin Ye had someone build a high platform in advance. He stepped up and looked around. At this time, there should be at least tens of thousands of people gathered here.
"Bang the drum."
Lin Ye gave an order.
On the high platform, big cowhide drums were beaten simultaneously on four sides, and the sound shook the surroundings. The people soon became quiet and all looked towards the high platform.
Lin Ye raised his inner strength.
A little distressed.
There wasn't much in the first place, so how could he not feel distressed if he had to waste it on talking? Every word was his hard work.
Lin Ye said: "Last night, there was a fire in the granary. Many people should have known about it."
The people all listened with bated breath. After Lin Ye said this, many people nodded subconsciously.
Lin Ye said: "Although the arson suspect has not been arrested yet, it is presumed that the person who set the fire just does not want the people to get food."
"A few days ago, someone deliberately encouraged the people to gather and make noise. Master Jinglue said it would take ten days to distribute the food, but they said three days would be enough."
"I left the matter to them and ordered all my troops to obey their orders. The people also saw how much food they distributed in three days."
"These people just want to make the simple and kind-hearted people become bad guys, and they want the people to be against the government. They are watching the joke behind their backs."
Lin Ye slowed down and looked around, seeing the people nodding again.
"I killed some people, cleaned up the law, and then left the matter of grain distribution to the government to continue, but at this time someone came to the granary and set fire to it!"
He glanced around again.
"The food now is not enough to distribute to the people in the city. Their intentions are so vicious. They just want to starve the people to death, and then encourage the people to fight against the government. They don't care how many people die. The more people die, the happier they are."
Lin Ye raised his voice again.
"But the Emperor cares. Now the people of Guzhu are also the Emperor's subjects. The Emperor cannot bear to see the people starving, so the matter of food distribution still has to be done. Since I am here, of course I have to share the Emperor's worries."
"Whoever goes against the people is going against me, Lin Ye, and the emperor's benevolent government!"
Lin Ye looked at the people closest to the high platform who came from various major families.
"But now there is no food to share, so I had no choice but to think of a way."
He said: "I plan to borrow grain from all the big households in the city and distribute it to the people. After the summer grain is collected, I will pay back the amount I borrowed, plus some interest."
Speaking of this, Lin Ye said with emotion: "If the emperor knew that people were starving to death in Yangzi City, the emperor would be heartbroken and angry."
He looked at the people of the major families again: "Everyone, if your family is rich, you might as well make a statement. I will record your good deeds one by one, and will also write them down in detail in the memorial to inform Your Majesty."
Lin Ye felt that he had said too much and wasted so much energy, which really made him feel sad.
So he made a summary.
"Now, I invite all of you noble and loyal good people to come on stage and say how much food you want to borrow in public. The people in the city can bear witness. Everyone is watching. Of course, I can't refuse to pay back the debt."
Lin Ye said: "In Yangzicheng, people cannot starve to death. People who starve to death are responsible for everyone who has a surplus of food. How can I just sit idly by and ignore it."
After finishing speaking, Lin Ye waved his hand.
Thousands of fine armor entered from both sides and stood in front of the high platform, holding their hands on the handles of their swords and looking directly at the big shots.
Lin Ye hadn't seen anyone on stage for a long time, so he stepped forward again.
"You are really kind-hearted and humble. You don't want the people to know how much good you have done."
He smiled: "I don't think so. Since you don't want to publicize yourself in a big way, please open your own granaries and let the people help themselves."
Then his tone suddenly turned cold.
"Whoever doesn't let the people eat, I will make sure they don't have to eat anymore."
After saying this, Lin Ye turned and left.
Back at the general's mansion, Lin Ye summoned his generals to discuss matters.
"I really don't know how they dare to incite the people to cause trouble. I really don't know who the people hate the most."
Lin Ye looked at the generals: "Assemble Guzhu's soldiers and horses and ask them to help the people carry food. Anyone who blocks the way will be shot to death."
