Chapter 2307: Simultaneous Action

Midsummer in Jinling is hot everywhere.

In the early morning, as soon as it was bright and clear, I was woken up by the heat.

Sweating profusely, he went outside to get well water to take a bath, then sneezed and quickly asked someone to make a big bowl of noodles.

Eating noodle soup early in the morning on a hot day, I was naturally sweating after finishing it.

"Sir, Marquis Yangwu is here."

As soon as they met, Xue Lu twitched his nose and asked, "What does it smell like?"

Fang Xing burped and said, "Noodles."

"Have a bowl."

Xue Lu didn't show up either, and the two of them sat down. Fang Xing saw that his hair was gray, so he persuaded him: "Those things can be left to the Marquis of Xining, why bother going around yourself!"

"The situation in the south is complicated. I have to go down and see for myself. Otherwise, I won't know for sure. If I miss something important, I will really be causing trouble for myself before I die!"

Xue Lu was extremely open-minded, so Fang Xing naturally couldn't throw cold water on him.

The two discussed for a while, and after the noodles arrived, Fang Xing went outside because Liu Guan also came.

The three people immediately began to discuss things, and then they left together.

Fang Xing arrived at the door, watched them leave, turned around and said, "Let Chen Mo come, and Liu Pu... come too."

The two people also lived in this large mansion and arrived quickly.

Fang Xing looked very relaxed, so the two of them also relaxed.

After sitting down, Fang Xing carried the cattail leaf fan and said slowly: "The north side has been cleaned up."

"yes!"

Chen Mo didn't know what Fang Xing meant, so he subconsciously responded.

Fang Xing continued: "The north has been cleaned up, and the south is watching. We can't let them watch for too long, otherwise the gentry in the north will make a fuss..."

What?

Chen Mo and Liu Pu exclaimed together. They looked at each other and Liu Pu said, "Brother Dehua, is this... the intention of the court?"

Fang Xing shook his head slightly, and Liu Pu took a breath of cold air. No matter how careless he was, he still knew what this sudden attack meant.

But Chen Mo was beaming with joy. He felt that if he could participate in it, he would be treated like the emperor's confidant, and his future would be bright!

It's morning now, but the temperature is already so high that one can sweat just sitting there.

Fang Xing slapped the cattail leaf fan a few times and said, "The information is top secret. His Majesty even included us in his calculations. Tell me, how determined are you on this matter?"

Liu Pu's first reaction made Fang Xing a little disappointed. He hesitated and said, "Those important officials in the court shouldn't leak secrets, right?"

Fang Xing said calmly: "Whether or not the secret is revealed is the next best thing, but who dares to take the risk? Once the news is revealed, do you know what the result will be?"

Liu Pu said without even thinking: "There is chaos in the south."

Fang Xing explained the background and then ordered: "Liu Pu, you need to run around more and go to Yangwu Marquis to see more."

Liu Pu agreed, his face flushed and he looked extremely excited.

Fang Xing looked at Chen Mo and said, "You..."

Chen Mo's heart was burning at the moment. The feeling of being involved in some mysterious event made him extremely excited, so he couldn't help but said: "Don't worry, Uncle Xinghe. It doesn't matter what the gentry or officials are. I promise to keep them obedient."

"Yes! Your methods are quite good."

Thinking of Chen Mo's bathing technique, Fang Xing couldn't help but smile and said: "To do big things, the first thing is to be well-informed. When it comes to information, Jin Yiwei and Dongchang can't compare to those green skins. Chen Mo... go and make friends with those green skins. "

Chen Mo agreed with a grimace, and Fang Xing immediately summoned the generals in the army to discuss the matter.

Li Long was the first one to come. He is idle now. It is said that he has no complaints. He writes a memorial of apology and reflection every once in a while, which is very interesting.

The second person to come was Song Hu. He thought he could take advantage of the situation after Li Long was idle. But who would have thought that the emperor actually sent Xue Lu.

If Song Hu dares to defy others, he will often run against him.

But that’s Xue Lu!

Xue Lu arrived third. As soon as he came in, his old eyes were fixed on Li Long, and he said in a deep voice: "This matter is important. Do you know the price of letting it out?"

Li Long still didn't know what was going on.

But since Fang Xing asked someone to summon him, there must be some drama, so he said seriously: "No matter what happens, since it is a secret, Li will naturally keep it secret. If the secret is leaked, there will be no burial place."

Xue Lu's face softened slightly. Behind his ancestors was his family, and they were the ones who were most reluctant to part with wealth. Unless someone can successfully rebel, they don't dare to rebel now. At most, they are just being obedient.

His eyes turned to Song Hu, and the evil aura in his eyes suddenly became stronger.

"Does the Marquis of Xining want to be the head of a rat and have both ends?"

Song Hu was naughty and not as capable as his father Song Sheng. After he achieved great success in the war, he was sent to Jinling by Zhu Di to serve as a watchdog.

But Xue Lu was a general trusted by all three generations of the Zhu Di family. Even though his title was the same, his status was completely different.

So Song Hu didn't dare to be negligent. He cupped his fists and said, "Song doesn't dare."

"I'm sorry you don't dare!"

After Xue Lu sat down, the other party Xing nodded and said, "Xue has entrusted you with a big request. Let Uncle Xinghe take charge."

Fang Xing bowed slightly to express his respect for the veteran.

His interactions with Li Long and others were full of calculations and threats, but Xue Lu did not need these. He could make them obey just by relying on his many years of prestige.

Fang Xing inexplicably thought of a person, Li Chengliang, who later raised the self-respect of bandits, and then he smiled.

Where is this?

He was smiling, a natural smile, so Li Long and Song Hu, who were wary of him, also relaxed a little.

"Have all the health offices been notified?"

"We have been notified, and we will take action at the same time, but who will supervise it?"

"People from Jinyiwei and Dongchang."

"That's good."

The questions and answers between Fang Xing and Xue Lu made Li Long and Song Hu a little confused, and their hearts gradually became cold.

Health centers in various places...

Where should we start?

Fang Xing's eyes turned and gradually became colder.

"Your Majesty's decree!"

Uh-huh!

The three of them got up immediately, and Li Jing, the big boss of Dongchang in the south, came in outside the door.

Li Jing took the imperial edict and lowered his voice, "...North and South are united, the North is at peace, the time has come..."

"...There are many acres of farmland in the south that have been illegally donated, causing hardships to the people. I am really saddened by this... I am sorry to hear from Xinghe Bofang..."

"Xue Lu, Marquis of Yangwu..."

"...Immediately clean up the fields in the south and restore peace and order..."

After finishing reciting the decree, Li Jing was shocked when he saw Fang Xing staring at Li Long and Song Hu. He was afraid that he would fall into this unpredictable situation, so he smiled and said: "Our family has always wanted to come to congratulate the navy on its victory. It's just a matter of fact." If we can defeat the Thai-Western coalition, our Ming army will be invincible, and the mere gentry will be destroyed in an instant..."

Li Long and Song Hu also echoed a few words.

Fang Xing remembered the attitude of these two people last time, and couldn't help but feel that power was tempting, and the imperial power could still suppress his relatives.

"There are many loyal and patriotic gentry among the gentry. We need to distinguish them, vigorously promote their high moral integrity, and tell the entire south that those gentry who steal national wealth are only a minority. Do you understand?"

This is about internal differentiation!

Fang Xing had discussed it with Zhu Zhanji for a long time before setting off, and at this moment the whole situation was turning over in his mind.

"Those gentry control the countryside and collude with the officials, like maggots in the tarsus, so if they don't take action, they will do it. Once they do, they must start in the entire south at the same time, with the force of thunder..."

Those present here are all generals Wu Xun, Li Long participated in the Northern Expedition several times, and Song Hu is also a well-educated family, so he naturally knows the principle of decisive killing.

Fang Xing's eyes were dark, and he swung his right hand with his fingers like a knife, "Anyone who dares to resist with force...kill!"
