Chapter 144 A Reckless Man

Sanshui County Government Office, Houya.

Lin Yi only brought a few personal soldiers and dressed in plain clothes to visit Liu Jian.

Liu Jian held a banquet to entertain him, but Lin Yi was not in much mood to have a banquet. In addition, with his personality, he didn't like to be silly and slandered others, so he casually tried to get rid of the banquet.

After following Liu Quan to deliver two cups of Qingming, he left, closed the door, and waited far away with Lin Yi's personal soldiers.

The two sat opposite each other, Lin Yi was not good at it and did not like to beat around the bush, and soon explained his purpose.

With Li Xu's reminder, Liu Jian was naturally not surprised. He lowered his head and took a sip of tea, looked up at Lin Yi, and asked in a deep voice: "Mr. Lin wanted to borrow troops just now on the war, but what happened?"

Seeing Lin Yi's expression of wanting to speak but stopping, Liu Jian added: "If Marquis Lin is unwilling to tell the truth, this busy official may not be able to help."

Lin Yi heard the words and said angrily: "Liu Futai, although the Township Yongying Camp is a local training, it is also the army of the court in any case. The general of the slander, the great general of the gang, had the power to control all the troops and horses of Guanzhong counties. If Li Xu had not been domineering and arrogant, did not know the superiority and inferiority, did not respect the court's rules, and did not respect the strict military law, how could there be today's turmoil?"

"I came here today, not because I gave in to the arrogant little thief, but I just didn't want to hurt the harmony between Lin and Song families because of this. If I really suppressed the Yongying Camp in Sanshui County and Township today, even if Song Xiang knew about it, he would not blame me for this."

The implication is that I did not order a massacre today, because for the sake of the Song family, I already have the power to dispatch troops from various counties in Guanzhong, and I am not a big deal today. I just say hello to give Song family face and Liu Jian, asking Liu Jian to tell Li Xu and let him cooperate with him well.

Otherwise, I'm afraid I'll be serious.

Liu Jian was also very upset when he heard the threatening in his words.

I have long heard that the "Qilinzi" of the Lin family is extremely arrogant and has a higher eye than the top. Today, it really makes people feel uncomfortable.

It’s obvious that he has something to ask for, but he still looks arrogant and arrogant, which is really annoying.

Liu Jian wanted to slam the table and shout, "Send out" and ask this guy to get out of here quickly.

But he is a civil servant after all, and he can't turn the table up like Li Xu, so he still needs to be decent.

Liu Jian's face turned cold and said, "Since Marquis Lin has the imperial court's order, why should I come to the officials to tell me? The troops and horses of all counties in Guanzhong are regulated by Marquis Lin, so Lin will just order the mobilization."

Lin Yi's face was stagnant when he heard this, and naturally he could hear the sarcasm in Liu Jian's words. He was embarrassed and also a little angry.

If this marquis had not taken into account the overall situation and suppressed Li Xu's arrogant little thief today, why would he have come to find you a little governor?

However, he knew the purpose of his trip, so he tried his best to suppress his anger and said, "Liu Futai, you know what happened today, and it is not that I am arrogant. I heard that Li Xu was recommended by Liu Futai, so I will definitely listen to your words. As long as he can cooperate with this marquis to suppress the bandits and quell the rebellion and do things with sincerity, then I will no longer pursue the matter today. If I make meritorious service, I will also ask him for me."

When Liu Jian heard this, he felt even more disgusted.

Do you think that if he doesn’t pursue what happened today, others will be grateful to him?

He also understood Li Xu's temperament somewhat, and he was not as good as soft as hard.

If you speak well to him, maybe he is willing to give you a chance.

But if you want to use such empty talk and coax and deceive him, and even ask him to be grateful to you, then Li Xu would be very polite if he didn't draw his sword on the spot.

Is there no more investigation today?

Since that kid Li Xu dared to cause such a big storm, he didn't care about the consequences at all.

Isn’t it really funny if you threaten him with something that others don’t care about?

Liu Jian himself is from a poor family and knows how to behave properly in his words and actions, so he feels very disgusted with Lin Yi, a rich family, who is domineering.

It is really hateful and annoying to be someone who wants to show off such a lofty look.

He snorted coldly: "Mr. Lin, although Li Xu is familiar with the officials, he has indeed provided some convenience for the position of the Sanshui County Magistrate. However, that is because he is a general and the officials are just to promote the country's talents.

After he took office, he formed the Yongchang of Sanshui County and Township from scratch. All the weapons, equipment, and even food, grass and military pay were raised by Sanshui County, and the court did not support it. The two defeats of the bandit army to defend the township, stabilized the situation in the north of Guanzhong, and made the bandit army dare not continue to move south. Only then did he be promoted to ambassador to fight against the bandits because of his merits and was given the title of a sixth-rank Zhongxian Captain. Speaking of which, the officials were a little unfair for him, and their merits were paid less. Wouldn't it disappoint the ministers who had made merits?"

"When Hou Lin said that, Guan Wuyan conveyed it, and asked Lin Hou to ask Gao Ming, or directly order Li Xu. If he disobeys the military order, Lin Hou can naturally deal with him with military law. Even if there is no township Yongying in this county, the thirteen counties in North Guanzhong Road have all the township Yongying in this county, and Lin Hou can also draw troops from other counties to cooperate with Lin Hou's actions."

Liu Jian finished speaking calmly, picked up the teacup and lowered his head to drink tea, and stopped looking at Lin Yi.

This is what it means to send off guests.

Lin Yi was furious and stood up suddenly, glaring at Liu Jian, but the other party didn't even look at him. Finally, he snorted heavily and said, "I will remember what Liu Futai said today. After returning to the court in the future, I will definitely go to the Prime Minister Song's mansion to ask for advice."

After saying that, he opened the door and left with a angrily swaying.

Liu Jian raised his head and looked at Lin Yi's angry back, shook his head and said to himself with disdain, "It's easy to get rid of it, what a Qilin son is just a reckless man."

As for the words that Lin Yi left when he finally left, he wanted to file a complaint with the chief assistant Song Mu, Liu Jian completely ignored it.

The two families have different political positions, what status is Song Mu? No matter how angry a junior from the Lin family is, it is not enough to affect Song Mu's attitude.

Song Mu is not the kind of prime minister who is mixed with him. He looks elegant and gentle on the surface, but his methods are extremely decisive and ruthless.

If it weren't for this, the Song family could not control the Qin court for decades as a relative.

However, thinking of the four conditions Li Xu had proposed before, Liu Jian shook his head helplessly.

People like Lin Yi think it would be considered very considerate to be able to come to visit him as a little governor in person, and there is no need to mention the four conditions at all.

However, what Liu Jian said just now was true.

After thinking about it, Liu Jian came to the study room, picked up his pen and started writing letters.

Although Lin Yi did not directly admit that the first battle failed today, Liu Jian also obtained confirmation from his reaction.

He wants to tell the chief assistant Song Mu about this.

I believe that if Song Mu uses this matter to make a fuss, he will definitely extract a lot of benefits from Lin Ruhai.

Since you can't get any benefits from Lin Yi, then start with him.

At that time, these benefits will be divided into Li Xu, which will make up for his debts.

After writing the letter, he checked it again, finally put it in an envelope, sealed it with a hot paint and seal it, and called Liu Quan to ask him to send someone to the capital.
