Chapter nine hundred and first love
Li Xun was appointed as the inspection and transfer envoy of the three roads of Hedong, Henan and Jiangnan, responsible for inspecting local areas, raising money and grain, and supplying Zhao Bai'an's military funds.
After Li Xun left Fengjing and arrived in Hedong, he went directly to Jinyang Prefecture. Liu Bihui, the new governor of Jinyang, was an old acquaintance with Li Xun. He was very happy to have friends from afar. Liu Bihui held a banquet to entertain him, polite and enthusiastic.
Li Xun's appointment was just issued. Before leaving Fengjing, he sent Xue Chengsong to Hedong first and ordered the governors of the states to report the financial status of their respective yamen. Even after Li Xun entered Hedong, Xue Chengsong brought a summary of the situation of the governors of the states, all of which were crying for their parents, which was the same. He had no money, no food, no people, and nothing.
Li Xun did not get entangled with them, nor did he have that time. The battle in Lingnan was about to break out, and time waited for no one, and there were more things waiting for Li Xun to do.
So after Li Xun arrived in Hedong, he headed straight for Jinyang.
After three rounds of wine, five flavors of dishes.
Liu Bihui and Li Xun arrived in the back hall, and they were the only ones.
"Brother Gongguo, you don't go anywhere, come directly to me, but you put a lot of pressure on me."
Liu Bihui said half-jokingly.
Li Xun had no intention of joking with him and asked directly: "How much money and food do you have in your hands?"
Lu Feng had long been ill-intentioned and had some plans, so he had been secretly actively saving money, grain and materials. After Cheng Xisi's rebellion was put down, Huang Baichuan had already made a lot of money because he took down the rebellion's lair and gave it to Huang Xiang directly. The two of them were full, so they had no idea to attack Jinyang City.
After Liu Bihui took office, the money, grain and materials accumulated by Lu Feng were a lot of wealth. In addition, the entire Lu family was killed by the whole family, which was another big wealth, so Liu Bihui is now very rich.
Liu Bihui smiled and said, "How much do you want?"
Li Xun said indifferently: "The more you have, the better."
Liu Bihui put away his smile, pondered for a moment, and then asked Li Xun: "Do you still care about the matter in Henan?"
Li Xun replied with great affirmation: "Of course you have to take care of it. If you give up halfway, the court will not punish me, and God will punish me."
Li Xun knew that Liu Bi was on the verge of the disaster in Henan. Although the disaster had eased, with Wang Shaoqun being arrested, the subsequent disaster relief plan was completely interrupted. If he ignored it, it would be very likely that there would be another stir. All previous efforts would be wasted. Although Zhao Xun gave Li Xun enough rights and freedom, he did not give half of the money and food. Everything depends on Li Xun himself to work hard.
Liu Bihui nodded: "I will leave 100,000 yuan in money and food each, and you can take away the rest."
Hearing this, Li Xun smiled on his face. The money and food in Liu Bihui's hands were absolutely not expensive. He only left 100,000 yuan each. This was a huge support for himself. This friendship touched Li Xun very much.
Li Xun stood up and bowed, and said with a sincere expression: "I, Li Xun, will definitely remember this friendship between Brother Hui, in my heart."
Liu Bihui stepped forward and helped Li Xun up, and said with an equally sincere expression: "Li Xun, I am not helping you. What I care about in my heart is the people of Henan and the safety of the world."
Li Xun only stayed in Jinyang for one day. That night, Liu Bihui asked someone to gather grain and silver overnight, with a total of 250,000 grain and 700,000 taels of silver.
"Brother Liu, the future is long."
“Everything goes well.”
Li Xun and Liu Bihui bowed and said goodbye.
After saying goodbye to Liu Bihui, Li Xun and his group left Jinyang and went directly to Henan.
When passing by Yunzhou, Li Xun stopped for a moment and took the initiative to visit Huang Qiu. He had a brief chat with him. This was out of politeness and respect. During the five years of Chengping, Li Xun participated in the Battle of Jiangnan. This was the starting point of Li Xun's career. At that time, Li Xun had just grown up and entered the world for the first time. Huang Qiu gave Li Xun many shocking impressions, and also made Li Xun realize the cruelty and ruthlessness of war for the first time.
"Li Xun, the emperor asked you to inspect the place. You just went to Jinyang in Hedong and did nothing and didn't go anywhere else. Isn't it a bit too simple, and you're not afraid that someone in the court will criticize this?"
Zhu Zhengguo spoke out to remind Li Xun.
From entering Hedong to leaving, Li Xun spent only two days, except for staying in Jinyang for one night, he spent the rest of the time rushing, just like walking eastward, passing Hedong, and going directly to Henan Road.
During this trip, Zhao Xun was originally planning to transfer a thousand imperial guards to Li Xun for use. Li Xun did not ask for it, but hoped that soldiers could be drawn from the inspection institute to accompany him. After all, he was his old team and was easy to use and he was relieved. Zhao Xun agreed to Li Xun's request, so Li Xun drew all 1,000 soldiers from Zhu Zhengguo and went out to do things with him.
Li Xun shook his head and said, "The situation in Hedong looks stable on the surface, but it is actually very complicated. And you have also seen what kind of attitude the governors of those prefectures and counties have towards me. Even if I go, it will not play any role. I don't have time to compete with them, nor do I have the intention."
Zhu Zhengguo asked softly: "What is your main purpose for this time you came out?"
Li Xun pondered for a moment, then said: "Zhao Bai'an has been in charge of Jiangnan for many years. He can operate the military and political affairs there very easily. It doesn't matter whether I go or not."
Zhu Zhengguo understood what Li Xun meant. His real purpose this time was probably to go to Henan. As for the inspection, Li Xun might not have taken it too seriously, or had other ideas.
Li Xun looked ahead and said with some sigh: "It's been more than ten years since I left my hometown. It's time to go back and take a look. I hope the change will not be too big."
Zhu Zhengguo suddenly joked: "You said on our way to fleeing famine that year, the big flowers in your village are very interesting to you. When I go back this time, I'm afraid she is already the mother of several children."
Li Xun couldn't help laughing loudly when he heard this, and suddenly became happy. He smiled at Zhu Zhengguo and said, "For me, Dahua is the best woman in the world."
