Chapter 6309: The Palace Master and the Heavenly Master
.
Shangzhou is the richest place among the four southeastern prefectures. The Shang River flows out from the northern foot of Changlong Mountain and goes north almost parallel to the Xi River on the east side. Because of this, Shangzhou has a long Shanghe Plain along the Shang River, and Shangzhou City is even more prosperous.
Decades ago, Shang State had a brief appearance in Shangzhou. When the territory was the largest, in addition to Shangzhou, it included Tengzhou, Tangzhou, Chengzhou in the east and Kezhou in the west. However, when the late emperor of Jing State had just ascended the throne, the army of Jing State went south, and the big family of Shang State itself collapsed on its own, forming several southeastern states. At that time, the major families that connected Jing State and dismantled Shang State also became local tyrants in the subsequent states under the promise of the late emperor of Jing State. The reason for such a pattern was that Jing State was indeed powerful at that time, and it was difficult for Shang State to resist. Secondly, the new king of Jing State had just ascended to the great treasure. He wanted to prove his control in all aspects, and at the same time, he also wanted to make Jing State completely gain a foothold and also needed support. Therefore, under the exchange of interests, the four southeastern states were particularly powerful.
Li Jun has been in power for so many years, and it has been decades since the late emperor pacified the Shang Kingdom. People who were still citizens of the Shang Kingdom when they were born were already old people. After the Jing Kingdom destroyed the Ming Dynasty, some hidden dangers would have to be resolved, so many contradictions have also changed.
The same is true for all major families in the four southeastern prefectures. Some people do not want to be completely controlled by Jing State, while others think that they are all people of Jing State and that the general trend of the world cannot be stopped at all. It is a better choice to integrate into Jing State early and completely integrate with Jing State into one, so conflicts also arise.
As a representative of the new generation of the Yang family, Yang Dian experienced the palace examination and became the top scorer of that year. He was a sensational figure several years ago. Although he had some experience and was appointed as the governor of Shangzhou three years ago, he was hoping to integrate into Jingguo. However, as a junior, although he also had a status in the Yang family, he could not shake the authority of his ancestors and his grandfather Yang Quan.
When Yang Quan was in Shang State, he was already the Grand Tutor of Shang State and the Duke of Guo. He was the leader in the collapse of Shang State. It can be said that the Yang family has this day. This old man is like a giant tripod. Although he is nearly 90 years old, he is still very smart and clear-headed, and he is still the pillar of the entire Yang family.
Yang Dian smelled something about Tangzhou not long ago. At the same time, he also realized that His Majesty had long been dissatisfied with the southeastern states. When the Ming Dynasty was destroyed, the four southeastern states should take the initiative to surrender. However, at present, some people began to fight to protect themselves, but he knew that this was not advisable. He discussed Zhang Feng's southward journey these days and nights, and he felt that the atmosphere had reached a tense stage.
Just when he was worried, the entourage carefully entered the study and reported: "Sir, there is a person outside asking for a meeting, saying that he was the flag-pulling man from Shengmin Lake."
"The flag-pulling man from Shengmin Lake?" Hearing this, Yang Dian's heart thumped wildly. He believed that he was young and talented, and did nothing without any leakage. The only time he lost some face. When he went to Shengmin Lake many years ago, he clearly remembered the young man. Later, he even asked about it and found out that the other party was named Lin Wuniu. Later, he heard that this man was less than twenty years old and became the Tianshi enthroned by Kun Kingdom. Although he did not accept the rewards from Kun Kingdom, it was already quite amazing.
"Please!" Compared to Yang Dian, who is now in his early twenties, his mentality is completely different.
Not long after, he saw a strong man in his twenties walk in. The man looked a little more mature than before, but I vaguely remember that he was the farmer back then. But now he seems to have lost his appearance as a farmer, and he looks more like a knight.
"Master Lin Tian." Facing Lin Wuniu, Yang Dian seemed to have completely forgotten the unhappiness he had at the beginning, and took the initiative to greet him with a smile.
Lin Wuniu was surprised that Yang Dian recognized him all of a sudden. He had to admire the young master as a god. He said that he would definitely recognize him as a true person when he came.
"Mrs. Yangzhou, I didn't expect you to remember me."
"Mr. Lin Tianshi is a master of the most famous among the Xuanmen at a young age. How could I remember it? I don't know what kind of teaching Master Tianshi came to me this time." Although Yang Dian smiled, he was also a little wary.
Lin Wuniu said directly: "Actually, we had already passed by Shangzhou half a month ago. But after we arrived in Tangzhou, people were living in poverty after seeing the floods in Tangzhou. The people in Tangzhou have a difficult life. Seeing that winter is coming, I am afraid that many people will suffer because of this. Shangzhou is rich, so I came over to ask the Yangzhou Mu to take action to rescue him."
Hearing this, Yang Dian's face also felt bitter. He remembered what he said when he was pulling the flag in Shengmin Lake, but he was despised by the people in front of him. As time went by, the people in front of him were indeed the people in the world, and he...
Thinking of this, he couldn't help feeling ashamed and looked at Lin Wuniu a little unnaturally.
"Master of Yangzhou, is it that you have any hidden secrets? Before coming again, my young master and I had already found some mountain gods land. The river gods of Xihe River, and the water disasters of Xihe River were caused by man-made disasters. The money, grain, winter clothes sent from the capital should have arrived here in a month, but they did not reach the hands of the people. Some of them were rumored to have arrived in Shangzhou. Shangzhou is rich and they still need these emergency responses?" Lin Wuniu's face looked a little bad. After all, the young master said that Yang Dian was not a real gentleman, and now he looked even less like a good person.
Compared with the farm boys at that time, Lin Wuniu is now a young and handsome man of the Xuanmen. He speaks and does things completely differently, and he has a sense of momentum.
Yang Dian also noticed that Lin Wuniu's eyes were changing. He smiled bitterly and said, "Master Lin is a person with the ability to be versatile. I once asked the two disciples of the national master. Although they were a little dissatisfied with the Tianshi, they asked themselves that if they were replaced by them in Kun Kingdom to attend the Dharma Assembly that year, they would probably not be able to become the Tianshi. It can be seen that Lin Tianshi's ability. Since the Tianshi found it, I don't deny that some of the things were indeed in Shangzhou."
"You dare to intercept these things. I remember that you were compassionate in Shengmin Lake. How did you do something that was harmful to the world?" Lin Wuniu asked without hesitation.
"Shi Lin Tian, although I am the governor of Shangzhou, I have no choice but to do anything about it. Moreover, I didn't get the batch of things I asked someone to get, but sent by people from Tangzhou themselves." Yang Dian explained helplessly.
