Chapter four hundred and seventeen

There are more than twenty governors in the world. When experts in the officialdom study governors, they are divided into local categories and administrative affairs. However, the simplest classification method is to see whether the governor has the mission of "admiral of military affairs."

Those with the title of admiral for military affairs can take charge of the military affairs of one area and can be called a military sect; those without the title of admiral for military affairs are just a larger chief envoy.

Yang Futai, the governor of Fengyang, has the four words "admiral of military affairs" in his official name, so he has the highest command authority over the garrison troops, garrison military households and coastal defense roads in the Jiangbei area.

Now Yang Futai used his command power and sent his subordinate officers to Gongsi with command arrows, ordering the soldiers of Yangzhou Prefecture's garrison department to return to the camp to rest and not to follow Li You and fight against the people from Nanjing.

Mr. Li had previously been entirely focused on how to deal with Nanjing. He did not expect Yang Futai to suddenly hit him with a sap, and he was stunned for a moment.

If all the soldiers were withdrawn on the order of the governor, then there would be only a few government officials left around Li You, which was almost the same as being a single-handed man. How could he snatch people from dozens of officers and soldiers in Nanjing?

Go back to the government office and recruit hundreds of strong government officials to start again? Then the governor can still do nothing and send the governor's Biao battalion to escort these people from Nanjing out of Yangzhou.

No wonder Zhang Yan and Zhou Huai, after capturing Jin Wanwan, did not quickly flee Yangzhou, but dared to stay in the mansion for a long time. They really had something to rely on.

Furthermore, if the Nanjing authorities had informed his superior governor before charging him a million dollars in deposit, then there would be nothing to criticize from a logical point of view. On the contrary, Li You was a bit unreasonable and had no reason to seize the right to trial, especially this time.

When the person is still his father-in-law.

This sudden turn of events was very annoying. The reason was that Yang Futai, who was under the control of the military and political affairs, suddenly acted evilly. Li You's hatred for Yang Futai suddenly rose to the point of fullness.

Mr. Li muttered a few words in his heart. Didn't he feel relieved beforehand? He had even reported to him the affairs of the General Merchant and the Salt Industry Guild, and was preparing to report to the imperial court through him.

Why did you suddenly fall out again?

It is very common for people to change their faces in the officialdom, whether it is for fame or profit - at least there are traces to follow and it is understandable. There is no one like Mr. Yang who has no principles and rules at all, and all depends on the mood of the moment.

of?

This unreasonable randomness finally made Mr. Li feel extremely disgusted.

The Chinese officer held an order arrow and scolded the commander-in-chief Wu Xianhan: "The military order is like a mountain! Why don't you withdraw the troops and return to the camp quickly!"

Then he said to Li You: "Does Mr. Li want to disobey military orders?"

Facing the military order, Commander-in-Chief Wu was in a dilemma. Li Zhenfu asked him to step forward, and the governor asked him to withdraw his troops. But he was really concerned about one thing and not the other - so he subconsciously asked Mr. Li for instructions: "What should I do? Please tell me, Zhenfu!"

Hearing Wu Xianhan's request for instructions, Li You thought, facing the pressure from the governor, although Mr. Wu didn't dare to step forward, he didn't turn around and left. It was rare for him to even ask for instructions.

After a civil servant commits a crime, if he is resented by his superior and successfully retaliates, the most common result is to lose his official position. Of course, there are some extreme examples.

But military law is not so cheap. From whipping to beheading, torture is everywhere. If you disobey the military order of the governor, Li You basically has no personal safety problems.

But it is hard to say for Wu Xianhan. Yang Futai acted in accordance with military law and asked the king to use the flag to kill a small boss. It is not impossible.

Wu Xianhan was undecided, and Mr. Li was also undecided. The key was that he had never done anything to directly disobey a superior's military order, so he couldn't fathom the depth of this.

Military law rules and civil service rules are two different things - the saying "military orders are like mountains" is no joke. It is regarded as the most taboo of the country. It is regarded as the most taboo of the country to undermine the self-respect of the soldiers, or the unlucky Mao Wenlong and his like will be dumbfounded.

Although there are some opinions about generals who do not accept orders from outsiders, Li You obviously lacks a sense of righteousness to resist and disobey orders. Sometimes, righteousness is really useful.

At this moment, suddenly there was a surge of people from behind, and another group of people rushed in, making the courtyard even more crowded. Everyone was surprised, which party was this? But they saw Ding Yunshi from the Salt Transportation Department closely surrounded by several guards.

, slowly squeezed to the front.

Eunuch Zhou, the salt eunuch on the steps, was overjoyed when he saw this. He cupped his hands in the distance and said: "It turns out that Mr. Yunshi has arrived. I don't have to worry anymore!"

Although the governor forcibly ordered Li You to withdraw his troops, Eunuch Zhou and Zhang Qishi were still slightly nervous. As long as no fresh troops came to assist, they could not really rest assured.

This Li You is obviously an arrogant and domineering person. If he really starts to act recklessly, the people around him brought from Nanjing will really be unable to stop them. Then they will be the unlucky ones. I heard that Li You has a golden book and iron certificate to protect him.

Because there are people in the court who are helping, even if they are killed with their own hands, they may be fooled by gold books and iron coupons.

Now that Ding Yunshi has personally led a large number of salt dings to help out, Eunuch Zhou and Zhang Qishi can be completely relieved. The so-called salt dings are soldiers recruited from the kitchen households to form a team and are directly affiliated with the armed forces of the Salt Transport Department.

, after all, the Salt Transport Division has a huge amount of silver in its inventory and needs an armed guard.

Faced with the warm greetings from the salt eunuch, Ding Yunshi looked as usual and calmly nodded to Yue Huai.

Looking in Li You's eyes, his heart sank again. Before the governor's military order was resolved, the Salt Transportation Department came to disrupt the situation. Now the situation is getting worse.

How he sees himself seems to be embattled on all sides. Should he use his trump card in advance? But the timing is not right yet, and it can easily end up being self-defeating.

Ding Yunshi suddenly smiled at Lord Li again, and then spoke to the salt eunuch Eunuch Yue and the Nanjing guard commander Han Xianzhangyan: "I heard that Jin Wanwan was suspected of trafficking in illicit salt. It should be between me and the two."

The Huaiyun Division Yamen understands the interrogation, so I won’t bother the guard to interrogate him, and just hand him over to our Transportation Division."

Zhou Huai and Zhang Yan were both surprised and didn't know how to respond. From the capture of Jin Wanwan to the arrival of Ding Yunshi and Yan Ding, everything did not deviate from the pre-scripted script. But Ding Yunshi's words had nothing to do with the script.

, leaving them both at a loss.

If Li You's demand for millions of gold was a bit wild and arrogant, then Ding Yunshi's demand for a suspect was justifiable.

In the terms of the 21st century, the Salt Transportation Department is not only the administrative department that manages salt farms and kitchen households, but also the tax department that collects salt taxes. It is also the law enforcement department that combats salt industry crimes. The law enforcement areas include Yingtianfu, South Zhili, Jiangbei

, Jiangxi, Huguang.

Therefore, in theory, Ding Yunzhi's request for millions of gold coins from a suspected illegal salt collector was perfectly justified and conscientious.

But theory is theory and practice is practice. Zhang Cangshi stared at Ding Yunshi with doubts. It was not agreed beforehand that the gold million was going to be sent to Nanjing, but how could Ding Yunshi come forward to ask for the gold million?

?

The momentary silence made Li You realize something. It seemed that things were not that simple... Judging from the expressions of the Nanjing duo, they absolutely did not want to hand over their people to Ding Yunshi. There seemed to be some twists and turns in this.

According to my own guess, this time it must be Nanjing, the Salt Transportation Department, and the governor's Yamen colluded with each other for some reason. But now it seems that Ding Yunshi wants to change the drama temporarily. Why?

Thinking of this, Li You suppressed his intention to continue to come forward and watched coldly to see how they would argue with each other. (To be continued)
