After having a drink in the evening, it was natural that the sky would be dark again.
Especially He Renlong, when he heard the news, he was even happier than his mother-in-law who had given birth to several sons. He held Liu Ruyi's hand and his tongue couldn't stand, but he still said excitedly: "Liu Ruyi"
Brother, we, we have agreed! If, if you have a daughter, you must consider my silly boy first!"
Seeing this, the other generals also came up to get married one after another, with Cao Bianjiao being the most popular. He pointed at He Renlong's donkey face and cursed: "Old He, don't even look at yourself. You were born with a black donkey face."
Face, I'm afraid your son is no better than you! You are not afraid of scaring Brother Liu's daughter! But I, Lao Cao, are different! Haha! Brother Liu, my little son, that, that is Yushu Linfeng,
This talented person is simply, ten times better than my old Cao! You, you have to consider my boy first!"
Liu Ruyi was speechless. These generals were all good people, but right now, she didn't even know whether she was a son or a daughter. They had already plotted against her!
Gao Jie, on the other hand, disdained the common knowledge of common generals. He put his arm around Liu Ruyi's shoulders affectionately and said: "Brother Liu, we don't have the same knowledge as these big bosses! These fools are all like hungry wolves! However, Gao does have some
This precious daughter is just half a year old this year and is the daughter of Gao’s legitimate wife. If Brother Liu has a son, please think about it!"
Liu Ruyi's heart moved, 'Oh, Gao Jie's daughter is from that woman, so her appearance must be the same! It would be a good idea to book a baby for your son in advance!'
"Brother Gao, we have agreed on this! When my child is born next year, we will have to discuss it in detail! Hahaha!"
Gao Jie also laughed loudly, "That's natural! Gao is waiting for you!"
Liu Ruyi didn’t know how much he drank during this meal. Even a revolutionary warrior like him who was ‘alcohol-tested’ slept for two full days before he recovered!
However, at this time, the imperial court’s reward also came down!
Not surprisingly, Liu Ruyi was named "General Zhendong", the commander-in-chief of Shandong, and commanded Shandong's military!
And He Renlong was named "General of Shaanxi", the commander-in-chief of Shaanxi, commanding Shaanxi's military and assisting in the suppression of bandits in the Central Plains!
Hu Dawei was also called the "Shanxi General" and concurrently served as the commander-in-chief of Shanxi to assist Liaodong Houses!
Although Wang Tingchen, Wang Pu, Cao Bianjiao and others did not achieve great achievements, they all received rewards. Of course, they were far less realistic than Liu Ruyi and others!
After thanking the court for the reward, everyone returned to their respective camps, and it was time to say goodbye.
Liu Ruyi's camp is on the outermost side, so he is naturally the first to leave!
"Brother Liu, nothing can change! I look forward to the time when we meet again!" Although He Renlong seemed to be as strong as iron, at this moment, there were tears in his eyes.
Hu Dawei, Wang Tingchen, Gao Jie, Wang Pu, and Cao Bianjiao also came to see him off. Although the generals were heroes from all sides who commanded the place, at this moment, no one knew what to say!
They just came forward one by one and hugged Liu Ruyi one by one!
We didn't spend much time together, but Liu Ruyi and the generals had already forged a deep friendship. At this moment, Liu Ruyi was a little at a loss for words, so she just tried her best to turn around and not look at the generals.
Face, "Generals and elder brothers, we have sent you thousands of miles away, and we will finally say goodbye! Today, let's say goodbye! If you, elder brothers, come to Shandong next time, I will sweep the bed to welcome you!"
"Cherish it! Brother Liu!"
"Brother Liu, have a nice trip!"
"…………"
The cold wind whistled by, and after walking a few miles away, Liu Ruyi could still see the heads of the generals looking up. Liu Ruyi gritted her teeth, whipped her riding whip fiercely, and galloped forward!
However, Liu Ruyi did not treat them badly. Liu Ruyi gave almost all the remaining mines of the Caishi Army to a few people, and each of them barely got a hundred or so. I hope these big killers can help them at the critical moment.
Four days later, Liu Ruyi and his party had arrived at the border of Shandong. Yan Jizu, the governor of Shandong, personally led his servants to Wucheng to greet Liu Ruyi and his party!
This time, because of Liu Ruyi, not only did he not lose the title of governor of Shandong, but he also left a reputation as a "virtuous man" in the heart of Emperor Chongzhen, which made him extremely grateful to Liu Ruyi!
"Ruyi, I really want to thank you this time!" Yan Jizu said with emotion in the Wucheng County Yamen.
"Haha! The governor is too modest! If it weren't for the governor's full support, Ruyi would never be where he is today!" Although no one in this land of Shandong can shake Liu Ruyi's position, Liu Ruyi still maintains his position towards Yan Jizu.
A touch of respect.
After all, although this old man is pedantic, he still has some methods to deal with political affairs! And what Liu Ruyi lacks most right now is internal affairs talents!
Yan Jizu was very satisfied with Liu Ruyi's attitude. As a young man, he had made great achievements but was neither arrogant nor impetuous. This made Yan Jizu feel relieved!
At the current level, it is an ironclad fact that he cannot suppress Liu Ruyi in Shandong. Yan Jizu is worried that Liu Ruyi is young and energetic, and because he has some meritorious deeds, he will be arrogant and domineering. This is Yan Jizu's worst
Something I don’t want to see!
"By the way, Ruyi! You must have suffered a lot this time when you came to the capital to serve as king. If you have any requests, please feel free to ask me! If it is within my ability, I will definitely do my best!" Liu Ruyi gave him face, and Yan Jizu naturally
I have to give Liu Ruyi some face back!
This is also equivalent to a disguised transaction!
"Haha! Thank you, Governor, for worrying about it! If it comes to requests, Ruyi really has such a small request! Please help me, Governor!" Liu Ruyi said with a smile.
"Haha! If you wish, if you have anything to say between us, just talk it out! If you keep trying to keep things secret, you'll be cheating!" Yan Jizu was in a good mood.
"It's not a big deal! Governor, you know that Linqing City has been burned to ruins by the Qing army this time. Ruyi wants to convert Linqing City into a military garrison. I hope the governor can send more capable people."
Could you please help me?" Liu Ruyi said her request with a smile.
Linqing City is located in the fertile Luxi Plain, backed by the Grand Canal, with abundant river water and fertile land. The most important thing is that Liu Ruyi already has nearly 250,000 refugees near Linqing City!
If all these refugees were resettled near the fertile Linqing City, it would only take a year or two, and Liu Ruyi would no longer have to worry about food problems!
Moreover, Linqing City is located at the throat of Western Shandong. If you advance, you can go north to the capital, or west to the Central Plains. You can retreat, or you can retreat to Jinan. It can be said that you can advance and attack, retreat and defend, and it can strangle the lifeblood of the Grand Canal.
It is an excellent place for development!
After hearing this, Yan Jizu's expression turned sideways. To this extent, he could not clearly see Liu Ruyi's intention, and said hurriedly: "Ruyi, this, this Linqing City, is really, really... Ruyi, you, can you
Change the place, after all, this, this is really too conspicuous! If, if the emperor knows about it, then it will be hard for me to explain it!"
"You don't agree with what the governor means?" Liu Ruyi's face turned cold. He was bound to win Linqing City!
Even Emperor Chongzhen can never change Liu Ruyi's mind!
Because it is already the twelfth year of Chongzhen. In just a few days, Li Chuang and Xian Thief will start to bring chaos to the world. Liu Ruyi must first obtain a fulcrum to ensure that at the critical moment, he can
Take advantage!
As the famous great man of later generations said: "The general trend of the times is overwhelming. Those who follow it will prosper, and those who go against it will perish!"
At present, the situation of the Ming Dynasty is basically a dead end. Li Chuang and the Xian thieves have grown bigger, and it is almost impossible to eradicate them! Even Liu Ruyi was unable to chase them into the deep mountains and old forests for a while.
, cut the grass and root out the roots!
Therefore, how to deal with the crisis is a topic that must be faced!
"Ruyi, I don't mean that! You captured Linqing City! You also defended it! There is nothing wrong with converting it into a military garrison! However, this matter is a little difficult to handle! Ruyi
, you should also know that many fertile fields in Linqing City are under the names of King De, King Lu and Duke Yansheng! This, this, it’s hard for me to explain!" Yan Jizu hurriedly told the truth.
Now, he and Liu Ruyi have formed a community of interests. If Liu Ruyi is prosperous, his Yan Jizu will also be prosperous. If Liu Ruyi dies, his Yan Jizu will also perish!
Therefore, Yan Jizu had no choice but to find ways to satisfy Liu Ruyi's request!
"Haha! Governor, don't worry about this! Just ask Ruyi to talk to these princes and nobles!" Liu Ruyi said to Yan Jizu with a smile, his face full of disdain!
"Ruyi, you, don't do whatever you want! These people are no better than before! They, they can all go to heaven to listen!" Yan Jizu hurriedly warned.
Liu Ruyi smiled, "On the side of King De, money can solve it. As for King Lu's lineage, they have basically been killed by Dorgon. How about Duke Yansheng?"
When Liu Ruyi returned to Caishi Town, Zou took Xiao Zixin, Chun Yunu and other girls to the outside of the town to greet him.
Liu Ruyi quickly turned over and dismounted, knelt down in front of her mother Zou, and kowtowed several times, "Mom, I've made you worry!"
"Ruyi, it'll be good if you come back! It'll be good if you come back!" Mrs. Zou couldn't bear her emotions for a long time. She hugged Liu Ruyi and cried loudly. Several women also had pear-shaped faces and tears streaming down their faces.
!
In this era, war is undoubtedly the most terrifying byword. If possible, who can bear to bear his husband and son to set foot on that bloody battlefield?
"Mom, isn't the baby back? Hey, stop crying! The baby has been promoted to the rank of commander-in-chief now! If people knew, Shandong commander-in-chief Liu Ruyi's mother would still be crying here.
Nose, that’s not a joke!” Liu Ruyi quickly comforted her with a smile.
"Pfft!" Ms. Zou was also amused by Liu Ruyi, "You kid, I haven't seen you for a few days, and you are so glib! The commander-in-chief and the general are all my sons! You silly boy, go quickly.
Look at Zixin and Nu Niang!"
Mrs. Zou patted Liu Ruyi's head lovingly and quickly winked at Liu Ruyi.
Only then did Liu Ruyi see that Xiao Zixin was already in tears and couldn't help but threw herself into her arms. Chunyunu and Qing'er, although they were only more than two months old, had already seen some stature and were tight.
He leaned closer to himself.
Liu Ruyi stretched out her broad arms and hugged them one by one. The murderous intention in her heart disappeared, and an inexplicable warmth came to her heart.
