Chapter 181 Everything is for you, and Lin, my good brother!
"Sir, the second master has been waiting for you in the study for almost an hour." As soon as He Shen entered the door, he saw the old housekeeper Liu Quan rushing up to report.
"Why is he here again?" He Shen was slightly stunned and asked Liu Quan.
Liu Quan's fat face showed a trace of embarrassment. The slave didn't know. The slave just asked, but the second master just didn't say anything, saying that he was waiting for you to come back. However, I could see that the second master seemed to be very unhappy.
He Shen has already understood what's going on, and a trace of helplessness can't help but appear on his face: "Forget it, I've been hiding several times, and then hide. This boy really wants to... You go down first. I'll change my official robe and I'll go to see him."
"Yes, the younger one should go and tell the second master first." Liu Quan nodded and quickly walked through the corridor and backwards.
"Second brother, why do you have time to come here today?" He Shen stepped into the study and saw He Lin standing in front of a hanging picture in a daze. She couldn't help bending the corners of her mouth and smiling gently.
"Didn't you say I was sick? Since you are sick, can't you come to see your brother? He Lin said without looking back, but the words seemed to be [***], as if there was a large fire in her stomach.
Hearing this, a wry smile appeared on He Shen's face. He turned around and restrained. He walked to He Lin's side, looked at the calligraphy and painting that He Lin was watching, and said lightly, "This is the "Wanlang Pine Wind Map" of the monk of the Northern Song Dynasty. If you like it, take it."
"A gentleman doesn't take away people's love. Brother, just keep it yourself. Besides, my brother is depressed now, and he is really not suitable for enjoying this thing." He Lin found a chair by herself and sat down and said.
--------------------
"You! Alas... and Lin, and Lin, why can't you understand your brother's painstakings? He Shen's eyes were so angry that his eyes turned black, but there was nothing he could do about taking this brother. Who let him have such a younger brother? The two beat each other for their lives. Naturally, the relationship between the two brothers was unspeakable.
"Brother, why don't you understand me? The emperor ordered me to supervise the Ula station in front of Tibet to raise food and salary. But how do you do it? Saying that my sick body is not good, what's the result? Now the emperor has let E Hui go. You're fine. I've come to you several times and hide from me all day long. Can't I, my younger brother, serve the court? He Lin's voice was not loud, but He Shen was still very clear. He Lin was really angry and angry.
"Your ideal since childhood is to become a general, command thousands of troops and horses, strategize, and make great achievements for the court, which is famous in history. Am I right?" He Shen looked at He Lin's face, which looked like him, but looked a little younger and tougher. Somehow, he felt a trace of Shaohua's old. He sat on the chair. After talking enough as if he had vented with Lin, He Shen said slowly, as if he were in a memory.
He Lin picked up the tea and took a big sip. That's right. For more than 30 years, my ambition has not changed. Brother, don't you know?
"How can I not know, so I asked Liu E, the minister of the Ministry of War, to ask you to supervise the front-Tibet East Station Ula and other things to prepare food and fodder." He Shen looked at He Lin in front of him, and the smile on his face became more and more real. However, that's just a fight for Fu Kang'an. Is your talent more than the governor of civil affairs and raising food? My good brother, don't you want to lead your own army, make progress and make contributions?
Hearing He Shen's words, He Lin couldn't help trembling all over and staring at He Shen with her eyes. Brother, what does this mean? His fingers, which originally held the arm of the chair, couldn't help whitening. Although he didn't like his own eldest brother and Shen's behavior as an official, after all, he was his own eldest brother. At least, he had never lied to him about anything.
Seeing the change of He Lin's expression, He Shen shook his head and smiled, "Do you know about Annan?"
"Of course, I know that Nan Ruan is competing with San Ruan in the Xishan Dynasty. Nan Ruan now has a slight advantage, killing Ruan Wenlu, and defeating Ruan Wenyue in a row. Now, there is a great momentum to revive the Southern Dynasty." He Lin answered directly without thinking about it.
"Do you know that it's time for the commander-in-chief to say to the emperor to fight against Annan." He Shen's seemingly insipid sentence dyed the fire in He Lin's heart more fiercely, and there was a burst of heat in her eyes. Brother..."
"You don't have to say that now you know why I let you pretend to be sick?" He Shen raised his hand and gently patted He Lin's hand next to him, which had been clenched into a fist. A don't you do all this for you?"
"Liu Quan, send this to that Yangcheng cigarette shop." Not long after He Lin left, He Shen's new handwritten letter was handed over to Liu Quan.
Liu Quanjiu and Brother Heshen were also a little flucible. Naturally, he understood the content of the letter and couldn't help but be a little confused and said, "Sir, you are..."
"Shen and I have received money in our life. Before we do anything, that Liang Pengfei smashed He's nearly one million taels of silver. Don't say this. Even if it's a general of the navy, I should do it for him. As long as he can help my family and Lin this time. At that time, as long as he can make someone happy, Naturally, it will also make him happy. He Shen looked arrogant and did have the dignity and arrogance of the superiors. However, his words were not like a prime minister in charge of national affairs at all, but like a fair-trading businessman selling officials, and he was extremely credible. Perhaps, at the beginning, He Shen did not enter the officialdom, but entered the mall. Maybe he can really become a generation of famous businessmen.
Two days later, the envoy of Ruan Wenhui, the original king of the Xishan Dynasty, entered Yanjing and intended to pay tribute to Qianlong. Please make him the king of Annan. Li Weiqi, the king of Annan, who lived in the capital, cried under the hall in sackcloth. Qianlong felt very sorry for him and expelled Ruan Wenhui. He also issued an order to denounce the Xishan Dynasty, and was determined to raise the army. With the white flag of the Han army as the general, he helped the king of Annan Li Weiqi restore the country... In the decree, in addition to the appointment of He Lin as the general, Yongbao as the counselor minister, and other officials, there was also a small general involved, that is, Humen Town, Guangdong Water Division. General Liang Pengfei transferred the elite sailors of his headquarters to help in the battle.
And there is also a decree that went directly to Guangdong. After counting his merits, Liang Pengfei, the promoted guerrilla department, was mentioned again and became a promoted general, which really shocked the officials of Guangdong and Guangxi. You know, the promotion is a real job, and the agency is an agent, just like Guo Shixun, the governor of Guangdong, is the two agents. Governor Guang's printing business, and Liang Pengfei did not make contributions during this period, nor did anything. Unexpectedly, he was promoted to another level. How could this not make people stare?
--------------------
"Your Excellency, is Liang Shen's request... a little too much? Except for the two battalions of soldiers, all of them must be equipped with fire, and even their handymen and patrols have to be equipped with knives according to the standards of soldiers. In the Admiral's mansion, a deputy general beside Zhao Chenglin frowned, holding an official document that had just been sent to the Admiral's mansion in his hand.
"It's more than that. He hopes that adults can add two more 18-pound guns, five 12-pound guns, ten 8-pound guns, as well as gunpowder and cannonballs... Does he think that this Guangdong sailor is the private territory of his Lao Liang family?" Next to him, a soldier was also angry, but from time to time he quietly swept the afterglow of the corners of his eyes on the admiral Zhao Chengling, who was silent.
"Enough! I already have an idea in my mind. Zhao Chengling raised his head, glanced at the generals present, and said coldly. Those generals who just quarreled just now all closed their mouths a little resentfully. Most of these people were not Zhao Chenglin's direct line. It was precisely because of this that they could not see a small general who was awarded by the emperor's personal order, and were even transferred to Na He Lin's command to make contributions.
You know, what is the fastest way to be an official in the court? Naturally, it is military merit. After a battle, even if it is a small five-grade guard, it may be promoted to the fourth grade because of military merit, or even the third grade.
And don't forget that this and commander-in-chief is the biological brother of Shangshu and Shen, another celebrity other than General Fu, who is also in charge of household affairs.
Liang Pengfei was promoted to four levels in less than a year because of Fu Kang'an, one of the emperor's favorite ministers. In less than a year, he was promoted from a district of five-grade garrison. Although he could not erase his merits, it was precisely because of his military achievements that he was promoted to such a righteous promotion.
Nowadays, he is already a third-class member and a general of the sailor. If he is asked to go under the command of Lin again, to clean up Annan, who has become a pot of porridge, and make new contributions, maybe these generals who have been in the position for more than ten years or even more than half of their lives will become lower. Question mark
However, the emperor's decree appointed Liang Pengfei's name. Naturally, these people did not dare to object. However, they always thought that they would be embarrassed. They could not make this guy too good to say anything. This kind of thought is almost the common wish of the generals present.
You should know that after the Battle of Guangdong Marine Division and Dahengqin Island, the strength was greatly damaged. It can be said that most of the elites were lost, and the ordnance losses such as warships, artillery and muskets were also extremely heavy. Therefore, now the ordnance equipment of the Guangdong Marine Division seems to be very thin or even fragile. For example, the general who spoke just now had four battalions under his command, and three were transferred from the Zero Ocean Water War. As a result, only one battalion came back with more than 200 disabled people.
Since these days, he has been rear-equipped with warships, artillery and other ordnance. He doesn't know how much brains he has racked. Not only his town, but also the ordnance of other towns is also insufficient.
But in a blink of an eye, the Annan War is about to begin, and everything should be given priority to Humen Town, which has been ordered to fight. Wang Shouli, the commander-in-chief of Humen Town, is almost crazy now. Unexpectedly, he sent himself to the battlefield with the light of his hands and made one or two more achievements. Can't he be promoted and make a fortune?
