Chapter 72 The Great Change in Xiangzhou (1)
Gao Baoxun and Gao Baoxun are half-brothers. The two brothers have the same temper and personalities. At this time, Gao Baoxun, who was in the middle of the handsome tent, looked at Liu Fu with joy and couldn't help but scream: "You're serious about this?"
Liu Fu also smiled and said, "Criminal, this is a magical skill from heaven, how can it be fake?! I almost laughed in front of the second young master just now. He was really blind and just when he was about to get the credit, he escaped at the last minute!"
Gao Baoxun also laughed: "General Liu, this is not the right thing. According to the second son's character, as long as he is ambushed and falls into a desperate situation, he will definitely surrender first and save his life! He escaped and was captured by Fuzhou. Even if the second son is redeemed by his father, he will not pose a threat to me anymore. We just need to get this credit again. By then, I will be the lord of a country, you are the governor of Xiazhou and the deputy envoy of the Jiedushi! General Liu, tell me quickly, what's going on? Why did God lose his pie?!"
Liu Fu said with a smile. This is an interesting story, involving the life of An Shenqi, the governor of Shandong Dongdao!
It turned out that some time ago, An Shenqi took the initiative to send supplies to support Suizhou's just cause to combat thieves, which was unanimously praised by the Later Han court. An Shenqi took the opportunity to seek rewards, and he reported a few days ago:
"I am close to the village house and farming, so please shoot at Chenzhiwenzhuang, Chunmingmen, Fang County, Linjunjiaofangzhuang, Sun Zang used the village, and Wang Tian asked the village to buy the farm and farming, and according to the rules, the farming house and the farming house were paid for the rent. The Yuanzhuang did not care about the garden, mulberry, jujube, trees, and oxen, but only managed the land along the village. Everything was under the jurisdiction of the village house and wanted to be transferred to the county, and they had been borne by the county for a long time and confessed to the two taxes."
What does it mean? In other words, An Shenqi requested the court to convert all four official fields including Chen Zhiwenzhuang, Chunmingmen, Fang County, into his own private villages. Among them, Chen Zhiwenzhuang had 17 hectares and 34 acres of land, and Junjiaofangzhuang, Linjunzhou had 4 hectares and 36 acres of land. Once, An Shenqi asked the court for thousands of acres of land!
Considering An Shenqi's special status in Shandong East Road, the court hoped that he could completely turn to the court and actively assist the defense work in Suizhou, Yingzhou and other places; he was also afraid that An Shenqi would turn to Houshu, Nantang and other countries to ced the Shandong East Road. In addition, his performance has been pretty good recently, and although these lands are huge, most of them have been abandoned and have low value. As long as these lands are paid taxes on time, the court agreed to his request:
"The previous quotation of the village can be given An Shenqi as a permanent owner. It is advisable to order An Shenqi to take over the management of the company, and the tax payment shall be provided according to the regulations. The three departments shall command the delivery. After the office of the military village in the east of Shannan, the commander shall be ordered to complete the delivery of the commander and the commander of the road to the military governor, the number of ripe acres belonging to the village shall be analyzed on the day and month of the delivery shall be analyzed on the day and month."
After An Shenqi received the news, he was overjoyed. This time he spoke out loudly. He thought the court would reject it, but he was not expected to be accepted in full. However, whether it was Junxian or Fangxian, it was not close to Xiangzhou, so he had to find a close friend to guard it.
So An Shenqi fell in love with An Youjin. In An Shenqi's opinion, An Youjin had been in his mansion for fifteen or sixteen years, and was the most loyal and reliable. Moreover, An Youjin had been in Xiangzhou for too long, and An Shenqi was also afraid that he would get old in the future but An Youjin would not lose his life, which would affect his son An Shouzhong's prestige. This time, the transfer of An Youjin from Xiangzhou can be considered as a safeguard for his future.
On this day, An Shenqi called An Youjin alone to the hall, and left his left and right. He asked with a smile: "Youjin, you have been in my mansion for fifteen or sixteen years. What do I do to you?"
An Youjin quickly knelt down and kowtowed, "The lord has rekindled me to my kindness. Not only did I provide food and clothing, but I also bought a mansion for me. I, An Youjin, can't repay my kindness even if I am broken into pieces!"
An Shenqi nodded, "That's good. Recently, I have invited several Datianzhuang from the court and I need someone to take care of it. You can get some clothes in the past two days and go to the Fang County to take office."
An Youjin's heart trembled. What's going on? Why did An Shenqi suddenly demote me to Fang County?! What did I do wrong recently? Or did An Shenqi find out about my affair with Yan Xiangyu?
An Youjin couldn't help but suspect that Fang County was too remote and was definitely not as good as a big city like Xiangzhou. In addition, Fang County was adjacent to Houshu, the army of Houshu passed by from time to time to fight for the autumn wind and chaos, and even the chaotic place could not catch up with Xiangzhou, a calm place! I am now a big shot in Xiangzhou, and countless people came to curry favor with him and tried to follow the way of An Shenqi. If I go to Fang County, I will be a big deal!
However, looking at An Shenqi's increasingly gloomy face, how could An Youjin dare to say no? He quickly kowtowed and thanked him: "The master asked me to go over, that is my trust in me. I will do my best to prepare food and fodder for the master and make money."
An Shenqi then relaxed his eyebrows, "A gentleman does not speak of profit, just let it go. I believe in you. As for your current mission, hurry up and put it to Shouzhong's disciple the day after tomorrow. That's it, you can retreat first."
An Youjin kowtowed repeatedly and then stepped down. As soon as he left the hall, his face became extremely dark. An Youjin had a high status in An Mansion, and his fifteen or sixteen years of stewardship also made him offend many people. Especially the eldest son An Shouzhong. Although An Youjin tried to please him in every possible way, the two of them were very disagreeable. Now that he has been demoted to Fang County in shame, others don’t know how to arrange him, there may be guys who will take the blame!
An Shenqi is now 60 and 30 years old, and rarely has sex with his wives and concubines. An Youjin has secretly filled this vacancy in recent years. He took advantage of his strong conditions for entering and leaving the inner house and went to bed from time to time to have a romantic life. Especially Yan Xiangyu's side, it has become his dead house. If someone reports it, then his life and Yan Xiangyu can't be saved!
The more An Youjin thought about it, the more anxious he became. He couldn't help but slip to see Yan Xiangyu and asked her to make an idea. When Yan Xiangyu heard this cowardly guy say that, she knew that the big thing was gone. If she really went to Fang County, An Shenqi would be extremely indifferent to him. His cold yard would be even more uncomfortable than going to jail!
Moreover, Yan Xiangyu had just received news from Yan Xiangyu that Wang Lingwen suffered a loss in Suizhou recently and vomited blood more than he was promoted. Although he received an official position granted by the court, he also lost his prestige. Moreover, Wang Xichang, the heir to Wang Lingwen, had a low status and was excluded by everyone. This time, he was sent to Yingzhou. Wang Lingwen was afraid of being betrayed by everyone, so he had to acquiesce to this matter. If this continues, Wang Lingwen will no longer be powerful, and Yan Xiangyu will lose the value of being used by An Shenqi. If anyone reports that he has an affair with An You, he may be executed by An Shenqi in Lingchi!
Yan Xiangyu was brave and said fiercely: "It's urgent, so I can only kill An Shenqi!"
