Zhang Ru looked confidant and expressed a lot of sincerity. Liu Chengfeng did not hide it from him, saying: "Mingjiao must hide its whereabouts before taking action. The biggest taboo is Dongchang and Qianhusuo, so
At this time..."
Liu Chengfeng narrowed his eyes slightly and couldn't help but smile bitterly: "The most likely way is to sow discord between Dongchang and Qianhusuo. On the other hand, it can attract our attention."
Zhang Ru thought for a while and said: "What can I do to attract your and my attention?"
Liu Chengfeng also began to feel distressed. He put himself in their shoes and thought, if he were the remnants of the Ming Cult, what method would he choose to hide his identity?
After a long time, a coldness flashed across Liu Chengfeng's eyes, and he said calmly: "If I were a rebel, I might take action against Bibaolou."
Zhang Ru couldn't help but take a deep breath, and immediately understood that Beitongzhou is the hub between the north and the south, and Jubao Tower is Liu Chengfeng's lifeblood. Now that Jubao Tower in Beitongzhou has just opened, if anything happens to Jubao Tower, Jin Yiwei will definitely divert his attention.
To Jubaolou.
Zhang Rudao: "Liu Qianhu, I don't know whether to say something or not. The Jubao Building can be rebuilt after it is destroyed, but this rogue party may destroy Beitong Prefecture at any time. A true man should cut it off. In my opinion,
It would be better to abandon the Treasure Building..."
Liu Chengfeng sneered in his heart, Zhang Ru was quite sincere, since he had nothing to lose anyway, but he thought of using his Treasure House as bait, and he had nothing to lose anyway.
But having said that, Liu Chengfeng still knew about the relationship between Beitong Prefecture and Jubao Tower. Beitong Prefecture's Jubao Tower can be sacrificed, and at worst it will be rebuilt later, but Beitong Prefecture is related to the overall situation. Of course he knows the importance of this.
.
However, agreeing like this was a bit unwilling. Liu Chengfeng pondered for a long time before saying: "This is easy to say, but how to lure the snake out of the hole needs to be considered in the long term. The most important thing is that we make sure the time is right." Zhang Ru was overjoyed and said: "
This is natural."
The two discussed for a while and each took responsibility.
Zhang Ru returned to his duty room and immediately ordered a police officer to come over and said solemnly: "Tell the people over at Qianhu Station to keep an eye on Liu Chengfeng. They must take the credit. But not now, just Liu Chengfeng."
I want to know every move Chengfeng makes." At the same time, Liu Chengfeng also started to take action. Time has become increasingly urgent. The ship is probably arriving in the next few days. What he needs most now is not just time.
, and even more of a helper.
If the rebels are other people, that's fine. Even if the guarding eunuchs are involved, there is nothing to worry about. However, the military preparations are different. Once chaos breaks out, even the alliance between Jin Yiwei and Dongchang may not be able to control the situation. What's more, Dongchang
There may not be rogue spies in the factory or Qianhu Institute. The contrast in strength is too great, so preparations must be made as early as possible.
Liu Chengfeng wrote a note and openly invited the magistrate of Beitongzhou to come. After all, he and Zhou Tai already had a close relationship. The two of them had received awards from the palace together, so their interactions with each other would not arouse any suspicion.
Zhou Tai took the note from Liu Chengfeng and came immediately. Since he received the praise, he has been greatly encouraged as a prefect, and some of his friends in Beijing have also written letters, saying that the cabinet intends to transfer him to the Ministry of Justice or Dali.
Go to the temple, I heard there is one there
For the vacancies, if you go to Dali Temple, you are more likely to be promoted to the position of Tuizheng of Dali Temple. This Tuizheng can be directly promoted from a fourth-rank official, from a sixth-rank prefect to a fourth-rank Tuizheng, and he is suddenly transferred from outside to Beijing.
His future is already foreseeable.
Zhou Tai was only a second-class Jinshi and his grades were good or bad. Originally, his future would have been great if he could reach the governor's level at most, but now it seems that may not be the case.
He is only around forty now, and it is unknown where he will be in ten or twenty years.
All of this is of course thanks to Liu Chengfeng. If Liu Chengfeng hadn't given him the credit, Zhou Tai wouldn't be where he is today.
Moreover, it is said that His Majesty was full of praise for Liu Chengfeng and repeatedly told people that he is a thousand-mile horse.
When Zhou Tai heard this from the capital, he was really shocked, because Cao Cao during the Wei and Jin Dynasties also said this to Cao Xiu. Naturally, it was just a simple compliment, but now His Majesty said
When this sentence comes out, the meaning is different.
Cao Cao's original words to praise Cao Xiu were, "My family is a thousand miles away," and the two words "my family" are the most worthy of scrutiny. Now that your majesty also quoted this sentence, doesn't it mean that Liu Chengfeng is also a royal family? Even if he is not a royal family, in your majesty's heart,
I'm afraid he has killed his own family.
In fact, there had been rumors in the capital for a long time that Liu Chengfeng was not only a student of Lang Wang Ao, the official minister, but also his Majesty ordered him to become his disciple. This rumor spread widely, but in the court, many people were dissatisfied.
I believe that after all, in the Ming Dynasty, there was no precedent for the emperor to accept a disciple. Liu Chengfeng was just a military attaché. How could he be so virtuous and capable as to allow His Majesty to accept him as his disciple?
But now that I chew on this sentence, the meaning is different. The so-called master of heaven and earth, the relationship between teachers and students may not be as strong as that of relatives, but in this era, they are both prosperous and destructive.
What your Majesty said to people unintentionally was that your Majesty said the word "my family", which is not a mistake.
What's more, the current emperor only has one son and one daughter. Therefore, if Liu Chengfeng is really your majesty's disciple, your majesty will definitely think highly of him.
The principle is like this. The fewer heirs you have, the different the status of this disciple will be. If your Majesty has dozens of sons, he may not be able to care about any disciples.
After Zhou Tai heard the news, he didn't sleep all night. He was thinking about this matter. According to the wishes of the capital, when the matter in Beitongzhou is over, he and Liu Chengfeng will be transferred to the capital. Now he has to do
One is to help Liu Chengfeng maintain the stability of Beitongzhou no matter what, otherwise if something happens, everything will be ruined.
On the other hand, Zhou Tai does not have much support in the court. Even if he has merit now, he will still have to walk on thin ice when entering the capital. Therefore, if he really enters the capital in the future, he will have to rely on Liu Chengfeng.
, Although Liu Chengfeng only has a thousand households, it is not difficult for Liu Chengfeng to have the holy family here to support him.
It is said that one can enjoy the shade by leaning against a big tree. In the eyes of Zhou Tai, an external official with no backing or foundation, Liu Chengfeng is an excellent big tree, so he has to strike while the iron is hot while he is in Beitongzhou and compete with Liu Chengfeng.
The wind builds good relationships.
Liu Chengfeng had just placed a note. Zhou Tai immediately put down his official duties and rushed to the Qianhu Office. Liu Chengfeng came out in person and welcomed him into the living room. The two of them were already familiar with each other.
I sat in the living room for a while, drinking tea and joking.
Liu Chengfeng didn't have any scruples in front of Zhou Tai. Zhou Tai was an honest person, and there was no need for scheming to deal with him. After a moment of greetings, Liu Chengfeng got straight to the point: "Mr. Zhou, you should also know that the reason why I
I was transferred here to Beitongzhou for the sake of Beitongzhou.
Rebels, now the grain will be transported to Beitongzhou in the next few days, presumably these rebels are very likely to take action at this time." Zhou Tai was surprised and said: "The rebels are so bold, they actually want to touch the grain?
Besides, with so many troops and horses in Beitong Prefecture, how easy is it to transport grain?"
Liu Chengfeng said: "Don't be afraid of ten thousand, just be afraid of the worst. If the rebellious party makes such a big noise, it must be planning something big. The most important thing in Beitong Prefecture is to get grain. If you make some preparations in advance, there won't be any mistakes."
Liu Chengfeng stood up and walked to the table against the wall of the living room. Zhou Tai followed and saw a dense map already placed on the table. This map may not be accurate, but the surprising thing is not the map.
But the mahjong pancakes in the picture.
There are many mahjong cakes placed in the album positions of Beitongzhou, Tianjinwei, and Shandong. Liu Chengfeng said: "A mahjong is a thousand-household office. You see, there are a total of six thousand-household offices in Beitongzhou, and one
There are also two thousand-household clinics affiliated to the Jinyi Guardhouse and the Caosi Division. Taken together, the number of people is
There are more than 8,000 people, but... I can't believe it, whether it's the Caosi or other thousand-household offices. The only manpower we can really use is Jinyiwei, and your prefect's Yamen, that is, the Dongchang side, not to mention the small manpower, is not very
Believable. What should we do if something changes?"
Zhou Tai was shocked. What Liu Chengfeng said was really hard for him to accept. There were so many thousand-household settlements in Tongzhou, but none of them could be trusted. Could Liu Chengfeng’s implication be that these soldiers and horses might be rebels? If so, what happened to this matter?
It was so serious that he even thought about whether he should inform Bingbei Road about this matter? After all, Bingbei Road had done a good job of sorting out and investigating the Thousand Households Office in Tongzhou.
Liu Chengfeng seemed to have seen through Zhou Tai's thoughts and said: "Mr. Zhou, are you wondering whether there should be some ventilation on Bingbei Road? To tell you the truth, I can't trust Bingbei Road. The only one who can really trust it is
Master Zhou." After Zhou Tai heard Liu Chengfeng's words, he couldn't help but feel moved in his heart, but he was also in a turmoil deep in his heart. He couldn't even believe in the Bing Bei Dao, so who else in Tongzhou could be trusted?
Liu Chengfeng said calmly: "So, just in case, I have only one way, but Master Zhou's help is essential for this matter. Liu Chengfeng would like to ask, can Master Zhou entrust me to you?" Zhou Tailie blushed,
He said sternly: "Why not? Although Zhou is a scholar, he is not a timid person. If you give your orders, I will do my best to assist Master Liu."
If it were anyone else, Zhou Tai would not say such heart-wrenching words, and would think that Liu Chengfeng was too suspicious. However, since he saw Liu Chengfeng's methods in Wuqing last time, Zhou Tai felt that Liu Chengfeng
Since Feng had doubts about Beitongzhou's Bingbeidao and Qianhusuo, he would naturally have his reasons. All he had to do was follow his instructions.
Liu Chengfeng took a deep look at Zhou Tai and said seriously: "Then, please ask Lord Zhou to take over the secret responsibility. Zhou Tai, kneel down and listen to the order."!
