The hibiscus tent is warm, and a spring night is worth noting.
Snow-white arms stretched out the gauze curtain, grabbed the clothes and took them in.
After the rustling sound, Qin Keqing, wearing clothes, walked down barefoot.
Arriving at the outer partition, Qin Keqing smiled helplessly as she looked at Xiang Ling sleeping soundly.
Then he walked to the door and said softly, "Ruizhu, Baozhu? Prepare hot water, I'm about to get up."
When he returned to the cave, he was greeted by Li Yunze's bright eyes.
"Mr. Lang, Madam's side..."
"I've already said, don't call me madam, call me aunt."
The pretty Qin Keqing blushed, but when she wasn't being beaten, she really couldn't say, "I'm going to set the rules."
"My words are the rules."
Stretching out his hand to grab it, Li Yunze shook his head and laughed, "If she's looking for trouble, just let her come over and I'll whip her."
"Langjun~~~"
Qin Keqing's charming call made Baozhu Ruizhu, who was holding a basin outside the door, look at each other. Can he still get in at this time?
Taking a towel to wash up, Li Yunze asked casually, "What has Qin Zhong been busy with recently?"
"Stay at home all day." Qin Keqing responded with a lazy look, "Dad wants to find a private school for him to study."
"I will arrange this." Li Yunze, who put down his towel, responded casually, "Let him go to Jia's private school."
Qin Keqing was very happy and said, "Thank you sir."
"Between you and me, there is no need for words of thanks."
After breakfast, Li Yunze went out to find double insurance.
In the back street of Duke Li's Mansion, Liu Xianglian was dancing with a gun and a stick at her home. When she heard the knock on the door, she put down her weapon and went to open the door.
Looking at the extraordinary-looking Li Yunze outside the door, he clasped his fists in confusion and said, "I dare to ask..."
"General of the Beijing Camp, Jia Lian."
Liu Xianglian is a descendant of the Liu family of Duke Li, and is also a side branch. She has a similar status to Jia Ping, Jia Lin and others.
Li Yunze put down the rebellion of the chieftains in the southwest. He was famous in the Zhou Dynasty, which was full of defeats. Naturally, Liu Xianglian had heard of his name.
"It turns out it's General Wei Lie in person." Liu Xianglian was startled and hurriedly saluted again, "Your Majesty is here, I'm rude and disrespectful."
"Should we stand here and talk, or should we go in and have a cup of tea?"
Liu Xianglian hurriedly reached out and said, "General, please come in."
His parents died young, and there was no one else in the family except the old servant.
After taking a sip of tea in the main hall, Li Yunze got straight to the point, "I came to look for Mr. Liu Lang today because I heard that you have outstanding martial arts skills and are a well-known master in the city of Shenjing. I would like to invite you to join the army and make contributions to the battlefield from then on."
The surprise came so quickly that Liu Xianglian couldn't even react for a moment.
"Huh?" Li Yunze asked, "Is it because you don't want to?"
How could you not want to.
As a side branch, you cannot enjoy the benefits of the main family, and you can only rely on yourself to fight hard.
In the past, those who used to dance with swords and sticks were just waiting for opportunities like this.
Liu Xianglian came back to her senses and immediately stood up and saluted, "Liu Xianglian is willing to saddle the general's horses and do the work of his dogs and horses!"
"The dog is already here...ahem." Li Yunze smiled and stepped forward to help him up. He took out a few banknotes from his sleeves and stuffed them into his hands. "This is the settlement fee."
Looking at the banknotes totaling two thousand taels, Liu Xianglian's hands were shaking. .... "The general is so generous, I am really, really..." Liu Xianglian was so excited that she didn't know what to say for a moment.
"Looking at your extraordinary martial arts skills, how about joining a team in the army first?"
Liu Xianglian was so excited that she couldn't control herself after being given money and officials.
If he was facing a girl, he would definitely commit himself to her immediately.
After giving the sweet dates, it was time to give orders.
"I have something I need you to do."
Hearing this, Liu Xianglian slapped her chest loudly, "General, just give your orders, Liu Xianglian will go through fire and water without hesitation!"
"Okay." Li Yunze clapped his hands and laughed, "There is a man named Qiguan in the Zhongshun Palace... Jia Baoyu in the Rongguo Palace... You need to do this..."
After hearing the work arranged by Li Yunze, Liu Xianglian's handsome face turned red, "General, this matter..."
"Huh? Are you going to disobey military orders?"
"I don't dare, it's just me..." Liu Xianglian was extremely confused. Doing such a thing was really hard for him to accept.
'Wow~~' A few more banknotes were stuffed into his hand. "This is your office fund. If you have more, keep it yourself. If you have less, ask me for it."
Looking at the huge value on the banknote, Liu Xianglian wanted to refuse, but his hands refused to obey him and he put the banknote away awkwardly.
There is no way, he gave too much.
Things that I felt uncomfortable before don't seem to be that uncomfortable anymore.
"You pack up and go to Qin Zhong's house in Anshanfang to find Qin Zhong and take him to Jia's private school. If you see Jia Baoyu, make friends with him. If you don't see him, then go there every day."
After leaving the Liu family, Li Yunze turned his horse and headed straight for Rongguo Mansion.
This time I didn’t go to Rongxi Hall, but went straight to East Road Courtyard.
Jia Daishan, the previous head of the Rongguo Mansion, made a memorial before his death and gave the title to his eldest son Jia She, but the family property was given to his second son Jia Zheng.
Because of this, Jia She, as the inheritor of the title, could not live in the main hall, but could only huddle in the East Road courtyard and act arrogantly.
Anyone who does this kind of thing would feel suffocated.
When they arrived at the East Road Courtyard, Mrs.
He was banned in the East Road Courtyard. Li Yunze got Nuo Da's property, but he couldn't get a penny. You can imagine Jia She's depression.
Seeing Li Yunze walking in, Jia She was stunned for a moment, and then slammed the table angrily, "You traitor! You still have the nerve to see me!"
Li Yunze didn't waste any time, he took out a few banknotes and slapped them on the table in front of Jia She.
The moment he saw the banknote, Jia She, who was furious, immediately lost his anger.
"Five thousand taels? It's rare that you still know how to be filial." He put away the banknotes awkwardly. Jia She rolled his eyes and motioned to the concubine beside him to give up his seat and get a wine glass for Li Yunze to pour wine.
"Five thousand taels is nothing." Li Yunze, who sat down next to him, picked up the wine glass but did not drink any wine. "Do you know how much Brother Rong has moved from Ningguo?"
After hearing this, Jia She immediately came over and asked eagerly, "How much?" with red eyes.
Li Yunze raised five fingers and shook his head, "At least fifty thousand taels!"
This is of course nonsense. Ningguo Mansion simply doesn't have that much cash. ....Jia Rong did move a lot of silver, but it was only a little over 20,000 taels at most.
The reason why I talk a lot is of course to lay bait.
Sure enough, upon hearing this, Jia She's eyes turned red as if he had pinkeye.
When he thought of the 50,000 taels of silver, which was like a mountain of silver, he became very angry. "Then why are you looking for me? Why don't you go and get it back quickly?"
Putting down his wine glass, Li Yunze said sincerely, "It's not easy for me to show my identity. People will poke me in the bone and say I'm cool."
Jia She understood, "You want me to come forward?"
"That's right. The money is coming back. How about we add two to one and make five?" Li Yunze pointed at Jia She's sleeves, "These are considered as deposits."
Jia She, who was also thoughtful, rolled his eyes and immediately laughed and nodded, "Okay, I'm going to ask for the money right now. Jia Rong is so rebellious that he dares to steal our money!"
What he was thinking was, 'When I get the money, I won't give you a penny! '
Li Yunze was also smiling, "When Jia Rong takes care of you, all your money will be mine!" '
He arranged to keep an eye on Jia Rong's people to report back. The boy had recently bribed a lot of heroes and had hidden many weapons at home. It seemed like he had no good intentions.
It just so happened that this thunder was left to Jia She to drain.
After arranging these things, Li Yunze took his soldiers out of the city and went to the military camp.
Other things are just trivial matters, just make arrangements.
Only the soldiers and horses in hand are the real capital.
The Zhou Dynasty was short of money and food, and it was a very bad thing to default on the food and salary for the soldiers and horses, but it was a good thing for Li Yunze.
He raised his own soldiers with money and food, and those soldiers and horses naturally became his private soldiers.
This approach is no different from the Guan Ning cavalry in the late Ming Dynasty.
Thinking about it now, Li Yunze actually understands those military leaders back then.
It really means that no matter where your butt is sitting, your head will be thinking about whatever you want.
With a battalion of soldiers and horses in hand, countless people in Shenjing City were staring at Li Yunze.
The emperor is no exception.
The emperor didn't care about Li Yunze's own money and food to support his troops.
Because he knew very well how terrible the amount of money and food needed to raise soldiers was.
According to Li Yunze's approach at this time, he would have to sell Jia Mansion to pay off his debts in at most two to three years.
Just take advantage of this time and use him to do something.
Coincidentally, Beijing Wang Shuirong and the others thought the same way.
On this day, Li Yunze was resting, and he happily rode home to study music with Sister Feng, Qin Keqing, and the others. After all, there must be my teacher among the three of us.
As a person who respects his teachers, Li Yunze doesn't care at all about having two girls as his teachers.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he entered the backyard of the mansion, he met Ping'er who was waiting for him.
"So urgent?"
Faced with the teasing, the blushing Ping'er stomped her feet shyly, "Master, there are guests over there, and they are all waiting for you."
"Who is it?" Li Yunze, who had been holding back his anger for several days, was very dissatisfied. "I chose this time specifically."
"Even if you come to Tiaoye when he's taking a bath, otherwise you won't see him when he comes on weekdays." Ping'er stepped forward to remove his armor, "It's Mr. Wang's uncle who is here."
"Uncle, don't let me play guessing games in the future, just tell me your identity."
"He is the governor of Beijing Camp, Mr. Wang."... As soon as this identity was mentioned, he understood.
It was Wang Ziteng who came.
Wang Ziteng is an in-law of the Jia family, Wang Xifeng's uncle, and the elder brother of Mrs. Wang and Aunt Xue.
There is a gap in talent among the four major families, and Wang Ziteng is their official representative.
Although he succeeded the Jia family as the Jiedushi of the Beijing camp, Wang Ziteng obviously did not have the influence of the Jia family and could not command anyone in the Beijing camp.
"Okay, let's meet then."
After a brief moment of reflection, Li Yunze roughly understood Wang Ziteng's intention.
As Li Yunze made unparalleled achievements in quelling the chieftain rebellion in the southwest, many nobles also became interested.
Lian Er can do it, so can I!
As the news of sending troops to fight ghosts spread, many nobles were interested in joining.
Wang Ziteng's coming here must be for this matter.
In fact, in recent days, there have been many visits from various relatives and friends, and the Jia family seems to have returned to the grand occasion of Jia Daishan's incident.
This is all for relationship purposes. Please help Li Yunze to say something.
After all, he is a victor who has recently won a big victory, and he has already decided to go to the southeast.
He opened his mouth to choose who to go with him, and it was a matter of course.
How could Jia Mu and the others know this? They thought that the people they welcomed and sent off every day were because the eldest sister in the palace was gradually getting favored. They had no idea which Buddha they were worshiping.
Mother Jia and the others didn't understand official matters, but Li Yunze was a well-rounded person.
It’s okay to ask for help, but the required procedures are indispensable. .
