Chapter 137: Encountered with robbers

Tianjin is one of the municipalities directly under the Central Government of the People's Republic of China, close to the capital Beijing, and is an important shipping center industry and economic center in the north. Tianjin has a population of more than 8 million...

Back to the Jiajing period of the Ming Dynasty more than 500 years ago, Tianjin was not as large as the county towns in Suzhou and Hangzhou, but the manor bought by Jiangfeng was on the edge of the Jiangfeng camp. To be honest, it was very desolate.

The restaurant in Tianjin sanctuary was not handed over to Lu Bing, but Wang Qinian came back here to manage it soon after. Although many people did not understand, Jiang Feng decided to leave his own people here.

More than 100 Tiedin's family lived near this manor. Jiang Feng went to guard Qianhu Station in Yantai, Dengzhou. According to the suggestions of Zhao Xiucai and Zhang Liang, these people remained in the manor. After all, Tiedin's family was nearly 500, so it was not easy to migrate and leave.

Jiang Feng just said something to the two of them, and then everyone was convinced, "If my family was not under my control, who would follow me wholeheartedly?"

When the Su sisters saw Jiang Feng in the manor of Tianjin Sanitary, their sister Su Guanxue was more excited than her sister. She hugged Jiang Feng and was unwilling to let go, and said to Jiang Feng in a low voice:

"Brother-in-law, after my sister and I came here, my sister often cried quietly in the middle of the night. I thought my brother-in-law wouldn't come back!"

Su Guanyue, who was greeting Jiang Feng at the door, was quite shy when she heard these words from her sister. Jiang Feng hugged the little girl and looked at the girl at the door. This feeling of being cared for was really good. Guan Xue, the little girl in her arms, didn't know if she was happy or excited, and she had tears in her eyes. Her excited little face looked like a big red apple, very cute.

The house where the Su sisters live is the center of this manor. The houses are surrounded by Tiedin and his family. Jiang Feng's arrival brought them news that they were about to move to Shandong. For the people of the Ming Dynasty, it was natural for their own family to go there and go there.

Many people are busy moving things. Although they are not wealthy families, there are a lot of miscellaneous things. Jiang Feng just felt amused and laughed when he saw them. If he was just taking away the bedding and luggage, he would have wrapped the stones used to sit at the door and were going to take them to Shandong.

Pinching the little girl's face, he walked to the door and said softly in the ear of the girl Su Guanyue. The little girl he was holding was very strange and asked Jiang Feng and said:

"Brother-in-law, what are you talking to my sister?"

"I said I would like to thank you sister tonight."

Jiang Feng deliberately bit the heavy syllables on the word "Thank you". Now this thank you is already a silly word in his boudoir with the girl Su Guanyue. The little girl Su Guanxue seemed to understand, but Su Guanyue blushed. She didn't care about her reserve, so she rushed up and waved her pink fist and smashed Jiang Feng a few times. Jiang Feng laughed and walked into the room with her sisters.

At this moment, he was telling himself in his heart that you are now burdened with the birth, old age, sickness and death of hundreds of people. You have the responsibility. If you take a wrong step, it may not only be a disaster for yourself, but also push the people around you into the abyss.

Tiedan finished the work of the capital and Tianjin Wei a month ago, so he was sent by Jiang Feng to buy houses and land near Yantai Mountain. It is obviously impossible for many people to live in. He could only make a simple arrangement first and wait until the team of people came over.

During the ten days, the old and weak in the manor started to take a boat to Yantai by boat. The Su sisters followed more than a dozen Yang families in Wulou Village, and the children of more than a dozen families were with Jiang Feng and Zhang Liang. All Jiang Feng's property was almost taken away from the eunuch, and the manager Wang, one of the sinners who had Jiang Feng's family property was almost taken away from the eunuch. Before you understand the truth, if you let Jiang Feng make a judgment next.

No matter how you say that you want to betray yourself, you should be Zhao Xiucai, who has a hostage in his hands, or Zhang Liang, who has a background in the Jinyiwei at home, rather than Zhang Guan Guest who loyally protects the shop and has a kindness to him. Later, when Jiang Feng reviewed himself, he found that both Zhao Xiucai and Zhang Liang were close to him directly under his control, while Zhang Guan Guest was alone in the capital, and his family was in the countryside of Shanxi. This means that people cannot believe unconditionally, because you cannot know the other party’s thoughts. As long as the hostage is in hand, it is considered to be responsible to each other.

If the Beijing officials go to the local area, if they go to Shandong, Nanzhili and Zhejiang, it is the most convenient thing to go to sea to take a boat in Tianjin. However, all officials are unwilling to endure the unpredictable wind and waves at sea, and they all ride in carriages and horses all the way south.

Or the official boats on the Grand Canal are safe and secure. As for the waste of time, at this time of the Ming Dynasty, the most deficient thing was time. Why not take a slow tour along the way?

Of course, from north to south in November, the capital was covered with loess along the way, and you could expect to see some beautiful scenery in the severe winter. In the past, there would never be any Beijing officials leaving the city to take office at this time. Therefore, the post station thirty miles north of Cangzhou City received a team of trains and horses, and the entire post station was quite surprised.

Liu Shunhua is now a third-rank senior official in the local area. Shandong governor and minister, and in the era when Jiang Feng once stayed, he was also the deputy governor and a serious official. Liu Shunhua's family was not only one or two people who Jiang Feng had just been on duty when he went to his house, but also had to do housework such as washing clothes and even his daughter had to do it himself.

There are also a hundred servants and servants who are with you now. This is nothing in the Ming and Qing dynasties. As long as one person becomes an official, many people always bring their families to join and volunteer to be slaves. It is absolutely not good for slaves in wealthy families, and they are always much more comfortable than digging food in hard-working fields.

Moreover, Liu Xueshi, who was once a poor scholar, was not worried that he could not afford to support him. After the court appointed him as the Shandong Provincial Administration and the right-sponsored political officer, the merchants at the Shandong Association immediately gave him a number of "Chengyi". That night, Liu Shunhua drank a little too much in his study and couldn't help but sigh:

"I only know the beauty of being an official today."

Liu Shunhua and Liu were not pedantic in politics. Relatively speaking, he was still extremely flexible in scholars. Otherwise, he would not have been so quick to turn to Lu Bing in the "consider argument" court struggle at that time, and there was no psychological barrier at all. You should know that among the civil officials of the Ming Dynasty at that time, he still paid great attention to the same character.

However, the "flexible" Liu Shunhua also knew in his heart that if his daughter married Jiang Feng, who was famous in the capital, he would probably be his official position. In the end, the Shilins in the world had a kind of innate contempt for warriors. If they marry their daughter to Jiang Feng, they would probably have the best result to get the comment that "A Fu Eunuchs will not be of great use." Moreover, Zhang Cong, a bachelor of the Hanlin Academy, disliked the eunuchs very much.

But Zhang Yong was not something he could offend. Jiang Feng had nothing to do with the son of Duke Qing. It can be seen that he protected him. Moreover, Liu Shunhua also saw that his daughter was very affectionate to Jiang Feng, and flexibility also had the disadvantages of flexibility. If it were the stubborn Hai Rui, he would have forced his daughter to hang herself. Liu Shunhua gritted his teeth and hid in the capital.

Who would have thought that after living in the private property that was borrowed from Zhang Cong, a bachelor of the Hanlin Academy, after a few days, Jiang Feng came to the door again. Liu Shunhua, who was embarrassed, simply gritted his teeth and said he was sick and recuperated, and found a place to rest. Liu Shunhua is now a member of the Lu Bing faction. Lu Bing, the commander of the Jinyiwei, has always liked to make friends with civil officials, so he naturally attaches great importance to this Hanlin Academy. Therefore, the place where Liu Shunhua recuperated was in Lu Bing's private property.

When Zhang Yong died, Liu Shunhua knew that Jiang Feng must have no intention of having sex with his daughter. Since the six or seven years since Jiajing ascended the throne in the capital, he was extremely chaotic. He was not going to continue to stay in the capital, so he simply planned to be a local official. In order to avoid Jiang Feng from afar, Lu Bing was willing to continue to maintain his relationship with this promising civil servant. In addition, Liu Shunhua came up with many valuable strategies when he stayed in his mansion.

So Liu Shunhua was released from the right-sponsor of Shandong Provincial Administration and the appointment was basically confirmed but before the official description was formally explained, Jiang Feng came to the door with a lot of money to ask for an official position in Shandong. After Lu Bing received the money and agreed to the request, he laughed loudly in his inner hall.

Jiang Feng asked to guard Yantai Mountain, which belongs to Dengzhou. Shandong Provincial Government Office is in Jinan, and the two families are really destined to be together. Yantai Mountain is only a day away from Jinan, so how will it be interesting in the future. Lu Bing did not tell Liu Shunhua about Jiang Feng's news. Lu Bing, who has always been a decisive decision, had some pranks this time, and wanted to see what the two people would do if they knew it was not far away.

According to common sense, when encountering family affairs that prevent lovers from getting married due to various reasons, women usually cry and hang themselves on hunger strikes and commit suicide. In fact, this is how tragic love stories in ancient China come from, but Liu Fangrui has not cried or made trouble in the past six months, and she should do whatever she should do. Liu Shunhua thought that his daughter had given up, but he did not notice that Liu Fangrui wore women's clothing every day.

After leaving Cangzhou, the official roads in Shandong were basically flat, but there were hills on both sides of the road, and elite guard soldiers were stationed on both sides of the road, so there were no need to worry about any thieves.

However, there is no need to worry. When Liu Shenzheng's convoy was about to reach the ground under the jurisdiction of Dezhou, low hills began to appear on both sides of the road. In such cold weather, no merchants were walking on the road, and it was deserted.

With a sharp whistle, more than a hundred armored cavalry rushed out from the hills on both sides of the roadside, which was originally desolate. Although there were fifty or sixty officers and soldiers from the Beijing camp to protect Liu Shunhua's convoy, no one expected that there would be robbers on the official road, and these robbers were actually iron armored cavalry.

Everyone in Liu Shenzheng's team was filled with horror and looked at the murderous "bandits" around him, and heard a bold voice shouting there:
Chapter completed!
