Chapter 67 Section sixty-seven

So I packed my bags and crossed the river to the south, via Jiangyin and Wuxi, and saw the Taihu Navy on the way. From Suzhou, I went south along the canal, stayed in Jiaxing, and arrived at Lu Liuliang's hometown Shimen the next day. official. The messenger, surnamed Jin, was General Fubiao. He was looking for Peng Yulin's boat and handed over a letter from Yang Changjun, saying that he had prepared a mansion on the shore and asked him to move. "No, no!" Peng Yulin waved his hand and said, "I live comfortably on the boat. There is one more thing I need to ask you."

"Don't dare!" General Jin Shen replied in fear, "If there is something to do, please give orders to Mr. Peng." "Just pretend that you have never seen me, and you don't need to mention it to the county magistrate here. I am old, too lazy to socialize, and I am even more afraid of being restrained. Just leave me alone and hand over the letter to Yang Futai, and your errand will be done. Yes. Tomorrow, I will go with you, and when I meet Yang Futai, I will naturally speak well of you." Everyone in the barracks knew Peng Yulin's temper.General Jin Shen replied, "It's better to obey orders than to be respectful", and then pointed to his own boat, saying "waiting for greetings at any time", explained this sentence, and left.

As soon as he left, Peng Yulin quietly went ashore.With the little book boy, I entered the north gate, walked to the front of the Town God's Temple, found a small restaurant, and sat down on the seat facing the river.While drinking and watching, I gradually became poetic.Just as the idea was about to be completed, three sailor soldiers walked in with their skirts open and their chests protruding. Although the appearance and behavior of these three soldiers are disgusting, the attitude of the waiter to greet the guests is not that good. Peng Yulin saw that he stretched his face, as if he did not want these three customers to come to the door.What is the reason?He couldn't help being surprised.But when he turned his face and saw the red note on the wall: "The front account is not cleared, don't open your mouth", it is not difficult to understand.

So he paid attention coldly, to see if these three people were villains?If the store refuses to credit any more, what will happen to them?But it didn't seem like someone who came to eat for free, who drank heavily, talked and laughed freely, and didn't worry about paying the bill at all. After watching for a long time, I saw that something strange was coming. I saw that the person sitting near the river secretly sank large and small plates into the river one by one.Apparently, he did this more than once, and the technique was extremely quick and secretive. The dish was dropped quietly along the river anvil, and when it sank into the water, there was only a very light sound, which couldn't be heard if you didn't pay attention.

Peng Yulin suddenly realized.In the business of opening a restaurant, there used to be a rule of counting accounts by plates and bowls. These three people ate free food and ruined other people's guys. Their intentions are despicable, really hateful!But although he was angry in his heart, he never broke out.Soldiers disturbing the people are all due to the lax restraint of the officials. Let's wait until we find out the titles and names of the naval battalion officers here, and then make sense.Seeing the waiter humbly settle accounts for that table of guests, Peng Yulin suddenly felt that the wine was waning.The weather near Zhongyuan, the days are still very long, the red sun covers the mountains, and the summer heat has not receded. At this time, the cabin is still very stuffy, so I wandered around again.Tired of walking, he walked into a teahouse at random, intending to take a rest first, and inquire about the name of the naval battalion officer before returning to the ship.

As soon as I walked inside, I realized that this is a family bookstore, so it’s okay, since it’s here, it’s safe, but at a glance, the whole hall is crowded with people, Peng Yulin stopped a guy and said, “Find me a seat!” "I'm sorry! You're late, old man." The guy shook his head and said, "This 'Pearl Tower' is a big 'loud'. There have been no seats for a long time. Please come early tomorrow!" "Isn't that?" The little book boy pointed to the middle with sharp eyes and said. Sure enough, a five-foot-long and three-foot-wide table was empty right in front of the "book altar," but before Peng Yulin could speak, the clerk shook his hands repeatedly, "No, no!

It was contracted by Master Zhang of the Naval Battalion. " Hearing this, Peng Yulin wanted to sit there even more, "That table can accommodate at least five people." He said, "It doesn't matter if you add me!" "It doesn't matter?" The guy stuck out his tongue, "You always say it easily!" After he finished speaking, he didn't answer, and left with the teapot. Peng Yulin thought for a while, and felt that the little bookboy was in the way, so he asked, "You go back to the boat alone, do you know the way?" "I know."

"Then you go back to the boat first." "I don't want it!" The little book boy pouted, "I want to listen to the master." "Okay! Just follow me. You are not allowed to talk too much, just follow me closely." So, the little book boy followed Peng Yulin to the empty space in the middle.This immediately attracted the attention of the audience, and the guy rushed up to stop him in a panic, "I can't sit, I can't sit!" His voice was so loud that he almost scolded, "I told you that it was hired by Mr. Zhang, the navy master. .” "It doesn't matter!" Peng Yulin replied calmly, "I'll just give way when Master Zhang comes."

After all, the customer is a parent of food and clothing, so it is inconvenient to offend. Looking at Peng Yulin's poor clothes and extraordinary aura, his eyes are not angry but powerful, and he dare not offend, so I can only tell you: "If you are always considerate of us, turn around and look at Mr. Zhang." Come on, please always give in!" Peng Yulin nodded silently.There were people around who were whispering and sweating for him, and some people thought that the old man had a bad temper and was asking for bad luck.But even such a tone of blame is still out of good intentions.Among them was a very kind person who felt that he had to be persuaded again.

"Your old man doesn't often come here to listen to books, does he?" "This is the first time." Peng Yulin replied, "I was passing by." "No wonder! Salty  Ting  Chair Tuan Huan Haze Locust Fresh Ding   Nuo Yin Call. hansome? "My surname is Peng." "Oh, Mr. Peng, please forgive me for talking too much. I advise you to change your seat and squeeze in my place, how about it?" "Thank you so much!" Peng Yulin understood his intentions and was very moved, "Please don't worry, I just rest for a while, and when that Master Zhang arrives, I will naturally give in. However, I really don't understand , Teahouses and restaurants, people come and go, and the quickest get first, why can't I sit if there is space?"

"This..., it's not a day's work, so don't ask!" "Oh," Peng Yulin took the opportunity to inquire, "Has this mermaid meat been around for a long time?" "Don't say that!" The man looked serious, lowered his voice and said: "The old man has traveled a lot, can't he remember these two sentences 'right and wrong are only for talking more, troubles are all because of being strong'?" As soon as he finished speaking, he saw the door light up, the man's expression suddenly changed, he stood up and left.There are two huge lanterns at the door, attracting "Master Zhang" to listen to the book.He brought a total of four guards with him, leading the way and embracing them, and walked straight in, walked through the corridor, a child was too late to avoid it, and the guard holding the lantern slapped the child down to the ground. Hearing and seeing, this "Master Zhang" is simply the bully described in the novels!Peng Yulin is jealous of evil, and when he sees bullying, he will think of the orphans and widows who were bullied by the clan after his father died, and the younger brother who was almost drowned alive, and he had to hide from the countryside to Hengyang City Feeling the hatred of misfortune, I suddenly feel that the blood in my chest and diaphragm is full of anger, and I must eliminate evil for the world. At the moment when the murderous intent was being secretly plotted like this, the man had already arrived in front of him, and the guard at the head yelled, "Go away!" "You bastard!" The "Master Zhang" stared at a pair of yellow eyes and scolded: "You are blind, this is also where you sit? In such a hot day, the bench is so hot, should I still sit?" The more he spoke, the angrier he became, he raised his head and roared, "Where are the people here?" The buddy at the bookstore quickly squeezed over from the crowd, his face turned pale with fright, and he just called: "Master Zhang, Master Zhang, don't get angry!" Then he turned to Peng Yulin with an extremely ugly expression: "I told you If you don’t listen, you’re trying to make things difficult for me!” Peng Yulin was going to bump into "Master Zhang", on the one hand, he was afraid that he would cause trouble to the guy, and on the other hand, he saw that the little book boy was frightened, so he swallowed his breath, got up and gave up his seat, of course he didn't listen to the book, and left the bookstore, Return to the ship immediately. As soon as he arrived on the boat, Peng Yulin immediately sent his entourage to hold a name card and invited the magistrate of Shimen to come to the boat to talk.The city is not big, and it could be reached within a few steps. It is just a county official, visiting the imperial envoys, and it is inconvenient to travel incognito. , The sedan chair went straight out of the north gate, which was already quite eye-catching. I don't know what Mr. He is doing out of the city so late?So some people followed to watch the excitement. Peng Yulin's boat stopped in front of an oil workshop in Hexia, and Mr. He got off his sedan chair there.Handed over the manuscript, Peng Yulin immediately received it.This Mr. He is also from Hunan, and his single name is Mu. Last year, Xin Weike's top three Jinshi was supposed to be appointed as the head of the Ministry of Rites. He was in need. Renqing was changed to county magistrate and distributed to Zhejiang.The county magistrate who is immediately available under the examination list, commonly known as "Tiger Class", fills in when there is a vacancy, and is the most ruthless. On the third day of the report, the county magistrate of Xianju, which belongs to Taizhou Prefecture, was impeached and dismissed. As the "officer for removing the seal", as usual, he acts on behalf of this omission.Xianju is a big mountain city, the place is extremely bitter, the endowment is very small, and the folk customs are strong, and the Tiantai in the neighboring county are both fond of getting involved in lawsuits. Even "Jingkong", so Zhejiang's alternate prefectures and counties have a slogan: "Better be a turtle than a fairy".When He Mu arrived there, he was miserable. Fortunately, the governor Yang Changjun was from the same town, and he asked someone to talk to him, so he was transferred to Shimen, the land of fish and rice. Although this man was from Kejia, his nature was gentle and weak. I heard that Peng Yulin had a strong temperament, so I thought it was because he arrived in the county, but I never greeted him. I blamed him for his lack of etiquette. He said to prepare the mansion immediately, and said to prepare the banquet immediately, but it was too late, and I was afraid that there would be nothing good to eat. "Hey!" Peng Yulin said impatiently, "I didn't come here to talk about these things. I have something to ask you, please sit down!" "Yes! Thank you for your seat." He Mu stuck his buttocks to the edge of the chair, leaned forward, and waited for questioning. "Should the navy here be under the control of the 'Jiaxing Association'?" "yes." "What's the name of the pipe belt surnamed Zhang? What official position is it?" "Zhang Guantao is called Zhang Hushan, and he is the general manager, but he has accumulated meritorious service to protect him as a thousand general manager." A general who is no more than a military officer of the seventh rank, and his subordinates are only in charge of a hundred soldiers, and they are running rampant like this, this is simply out of the world!Peng Yulin then asked: "I heard that Hushan has a lot of bad deeds. You are the parent official of a county, so you should know it! Why don't you apply to come to power and eliminate harm for the people? Isn't it a shame for your duty?" When I asked this sentence, it touched He Mu's sad place. He burst into tears immediately, crying, and said: "Your Excellency is right! I have been in office for less than a year. Seeing that Zhang Guandai is using the name of arresting smugglers and thieves , tortured the people without authorization, and extorted property, just because they were not under the jurisdiction, so there was nothing to do! Thinking about it at night, I feel ashamed of my quilt, and it hurts so much." Peng Yulin's face changed suddenly: "How can you say that you are helpless? Can't you report his illegal affairs?" "Respond to your lord's words. There is no evidence." He Mu said again: "I asked the sufferer to submit a complaint, but the sufferer refused, fearing that he would retaliate. Someone filed a complaint a year ago. As a result, father and son were both killed. There is nowhere to find the corpse. The predecessor missed his career because of this murder case. Therefore, the people would rather be wronged than sue." "There are such things!" Peng Yulin thought for a while and told his followers: "Please come to Jinshen!" As soon as General Jin Shen arrived on the boat, he saw that He Mu was there with tears on his face, while Peng Yulin's face was livid and frighteningly angry. I don't know what's going on?I couldn't help but also murmured in my heart, afraid that if I encountered some troubles, I couldn't handle it myself, and this errand would be ruined. "General Jin!" Peng Yulin said, "I don't know much about the battalion system in Zhejiang. Why is it that the officers and soldiers are stationed like no one restraining them. What's the reason for this?" General Jin Shen was confused by this question, but thanks to He Mu, he said: "Master Peng is talking about Zhang Guantao, the navy commander here." General Jin Shen also heard that Zhang Hushan, the commander of the naval battalion stationed in Shimen, is a well-known battalion bastard, but he is a general of Fubiao. Although the two green battalions in Hangzhou have different routes and different jurisdictions, he has no responsibility It can be said that the answer is calm. "Responding to Mr. Peng's words," he said, "the admiral of Zhejiang is stationed in Ningbo, and he can't help the west of Zhejiang. Lieutenant General Zhang of the Jiaxing Camp is too lenient to his subordinates. However, only the navy is like this. Not up to the discipline of the Yangtze River Navy." The last sentence was a compliment to Peng Yulin, but it also reminded him.This time, it was ordered to patrol the Yangtze River Navy, and only the five provinces of Hunan, Hubei, Anhui, Jiangxi, and Jiangsu could exercise their powers.There is only Taihu Naval Battalion in Zhejiang, and because the lake spans two provinces, it is also under the control of Jiangsu Naval Division.If you have the imperial envoy's "Flag of King's Order", it's easy to handle. Even if you get involved in this nosy matter, you can at most impeach yourself, but with a small punishment, Zhang Hushan's evil will always be eliminated.Reluctantly, although he has the name of an imperial envoy, he does not have the "Wang Ming Banner", so he cannot afford the crime of killing an official without authorization. General Jin Shen saw that he was groaning and puzzled, so he knew that he had murderous intentions, so he suggested an idea for him: "Master Peng, why don't you write a corner of the official document and consult with Zhejiang? On the one hand, I will go back and report to Yang Futai. If Zhang Hushan is dismissed and investigated, at least he cannot escape the charge of exile." "Hmph! Congregation?" Peng Yulin sneered and said, "I want to be a strict participant! It's unreasonable not to kill this person." "Respond to your lord's words." He Mu interfaced and said, "Because of the big wedding this year, we will stop hooking up for one year." "Ah!" Peng Yulin was reminded again that the wedding ceremony, regardless of the autumn trial by the Ministry of Punishment or the reports of the provinces, and the death penalty for repeat offenders, will not be interrogated.If Zhang Hushan is dismissed and investigated, even if the death penalty is imposed, he will not die this year, but it is unknown whether he will be included in the execution next year. People like this must have a lot of ill-gotten wealth. That is really unreasonable! What to do?In desperation, he suddenly realized that he did not have a "Wang Ming Banner", but Yang Changjun, governor of the dead river, did!If Yang Changjun refuses to ask the king to order the flag to kill this person, then he will join him in strict investigation and sue him for conniving his subordinates to do evil!Thinking of this idea, he lifted his spirits, "General Jin," he said, "I want to entrust you with something. I have a letter to Yang Zhongcheng. Please send someone to deliver it to the provincial capital overnight. I will get a reply tomorrow afternoon." .To be honest with you, I want to invite Yang Zhongcheng to bring the Wang Ming flag card here!" "Oh!" Jin Shen general Qu Ran replied, "I have to go there myself." So Peng Yulin immediately wrote a personal letter, beginning with "Your Excellency, Brother Shiquan Zhongcheng", and immediately narrated it into this article.General Jin Shen rode a fast horse that night and rushed to Hangzhou to deliver the letter. Sure enough, there was a reply the next afternoon.It's just a reply letter, Jin Shenjiang never came.Yang Changjun's reply letter was sent by a special messenger. In the letter, he first expressed his ashamedness, saying that his subordinates had such a naval officer who had ruined the army and the people, and that he had missed the investigation, and then thanked Peng Yulin for his discipline.As for Zhang Hushan's crime, he decided to follow Peng Yulin's wishes and ask the king to order this traitor to be punished. He is preparing a notice and a speech, and he will still send Jin Shen to send it a day later.Finally, I hope that Peng Yulin will be ordered to drive as soon as the matter is over, and he will arrive in Hangzhou as soon as possible, so that he can talk about his deeds. With such an answer, Peng Yulin was quite satisfied.At that time, He Mu was invited to tell him what happened, and he was asked to make careful preparations. He Mu was cautious and timid. He was afraid that the news would leak out and Zhang Hushan would abscond in fear of crime, and he was also afraid that he would forcefully resist arrest or even incite his subordinates to make trouble.Worried, he returned to the county yamen, instead of going back to his room, he first went to the old master Xingming and asked for advice quietly. "Ms. Zhang has many eyes and ears, so be careful about this matter! Don't say anything now, wait until the golden ginseng arrives tomorrow." "I don't know when the golden ginseng will arrive? What will I do when I arrive?" "Even if he starts from Hangzhou early tomorrow morning, whether by water or land, it will take half a day to reach Shimen. If it's too late, we have to talk about it the day after tomorrow." "I'm afraid that the night will be long and dreamy." He Mu frowned and said, "It's best to get rid of this matter tomorrow." The old master Xingming pondered for a while, then nodded and said: "That's it, please Dong Weng to post today, invite him to discuss matters tomorrow afternoon, and have dinner in the evening. In addition, invite a few accompanying guests, and invite local gentlemen. When the time comes, Mr. Peng If there is an arraignment, ask them to be an accuser or a witness." "That's a good strategy. However, we need to find a topic for discussion." "There is one now." Xingming old master said, "Zhongyuan is coming soon, and Zhang Hushan wants to raise money to build a water and land dojo in the name of Chaodu, a naval officer and soldier who died in the line of duty. Tomorrow, he will invite local gentlemen to talk about apportionment. Zhang Hushan will definitely work hard on this matter. .” "Okay!" He Mugong cupped his hands and said, "Okay, the old master will arrange everything." I made a post on the same day, and made an appointment to meet at three o'clock in the afternoon the next day.When the time came, Zhang Hushan went to the meeting in plain clothes, bringing with him four guards carrying foreign guns.The Xingming old master had already made arrangements in secret, and when Zhang Hushan was welcomed into the water pavilion in the back garden, a familiar guard invited the four guards to drink tea and rest, and isolate them to one side.Then he asked the pawns to wait on Peng Yulin's boat. At the same time, he told the drummers to wait for the king's order, and secretly took care of the "three shifts and six houses" and the executioner, waiting for the "red mission". Outside, swords are tense, as if you are facing a big enemy, but inside, there is a lively discussion in the water pavilion. When talking about the red sun sinking to the west, the amount of apportionment is decided, and suddenly there is a cannonball, followed by the sound of "Milimala" blowing the suona .Zhang Hushan asked in surprise: "What is this for?" He Mu naturally understood that the Dragon Pavilion enshrining the "Wang Ming Banner" had been carried into the lobby. Respectfully celebrate the wedding ceremony, the imperial edict of amnesty has arrived. I have to hurry to receive the decree, everyone, please take a seat!" He was talking nonsense, but Zhang Hushan was blindsided.After waiting for a while, a servant close to He Mu came in a hurry, called and said: "I invite Master Zhang to sit in the flower hall. There is a distinguished guest who wants to see Master Zhang." "Hello!" Zhang Hushan asked in a hesitant voice, "That one?" "I heard that he is from Master Zhang's hometown." It was a distinguished guest and a fellow villager, so Zhang Hushan happily followed. Before Zhang Hushan arrived, Peng Yulin was already waiting in the flower hall.Because of the king's order, I specially wear official clothes, cloth robes and boots, which are quite shabby, but there are three things that are outstanding, one is a coral top, the other is double-eyed feathers, and one is more conspicuous: the yellow mandarin jacket.However, this is not surprising, the prestige is the registered general, who is really short of generals, and is also a military officer with a red top standing on duty for him. Serving errands. "Bring Zhang Hushan!" Jin Shen brought a military inspector who accompanied him, and went into the hall to report. When these words spread down the corridor, Zhang Hushan's expression changed. He took him into the hall, looked up, and probably recognized the senior official sitting alone on the kang bed, the country old man he scolded for him in the bookstore that day, and suddenly trembled. He bent his knees and fell to his knees. "Zhang Hushan!" General Jin Shen said sternly, "Master Peng, the imperial envoy, has something to ask you, and you must answer it truthfully." "Yes, yes!" Zhang Hushan kowtowed and declared his title and name. "Zhang Hushan," Peng Yulin asked, "where were you working?" "It has been stationed in Jiaxing along the canal." "How many years have you been in the camp?" Peng Yulin asked again, "Where did you come from?" "Eight years in the camp, he was born in the army." Zhang Hushan paused for a moment and then said, "First I was the head of the department, and later I made up the secretary. Because of the meritorious service in the war, I was promoted to general manager." "You used to be a secretary? Then, you also know how to read and write?" "Yes!" Zhang Hushan said, "I don't know much." "You've only been in the camp for eight years, so of course you haven't fought long hair. You're the secretary again, how can you get credit for fighting?" This sentence seemed to stop Zhang Hushan from asking, and he stammered for a long time before he said reluctantly: "It's from the insurance case." When Peng Yulin was ordered by his mother to avoid disaster, he was studying at Shigu Academy in Hengyang, and at the same time, he was a secretary in the Hengzhou Association for the salary of a horse soldier, and he knew the "mystery" of it.In the eyes of some illiterate battalion officers, the Secretary is the "Military Adviser", and the brothers respectfully call him "Master". If there is any dispatch to suppress the bandits, and to repay the merits afterwards, it is up to the Secretary to bring himself to a few places. In a word, praise is inevitable.That's what Zhang Hushan's so-called "insured case" general manager is all about. "So you have never fought a war! I don't want to talk about it. Let me ask you, how many years have you been in Shimen?" "Less than three years." "Less than three years. Oh!" Peng Yulin nodded to himself, and asked after a pause, "How many women do you have?" When this question was asked, not only did Zhang Hushan show a look of doubt and fear, but General Jin Shen was also very surprised. Only He Mu knew in his heart that just this sentence was enough to kill Zhang Hushan. "Say it!" Peng Yulin looked at Zhang Hushan with piercing eyes, "I want to hear what you have to say!" "I...," Zhang Hushan said with difficulty, "I have four women." "Listen," Peng Yulin looked at the general and said, "A general needs to support four families!" Jin Shen shook his head: "You can't eat so much even if you are empty!" "That's it." Peng Yulin looked at Zhang Hushan and asked again: "Let me ask you again, where are your four women from? Where did the youngest one come from?" Zhang Hushan's face was ashamed, and he probably knew that he was going to be in trouble! "Yes, it was bought with money." "I also know that you bought it with money. However," Peng Yulin nailed it tightly and asked, "Are you willing to sell it?" This time Zhang Hushan couldn't speak anymore, he just kowtowed, "Master Peng please forgive me!" he said, "I will dismiss my four women as soon as I go back." "Disbanded! Do you think this is Cai Yong?" Peng Yulin sneered, "It's easy to say! If you like it, you can't do it if you don't want it. If you don't want it, give me some money to send it away. There is such a free thing in the world! " "Then please show me, Lord Peng, what should I do?" Zhang Hushan lowered his head and said, "I know I was wrong, please punish me, Lord Peng." "It's enough to punish you for buying a commoner's wife and forcing my husband to death! Do you know what the people of Shimen think of you? They can't wait to eat their flesh and blood!" At this point, he turned his face and shouted: "Jin Shen general!" "Cha!" General Jin Shen solemnly agreed. "What did Lord Yang tell you?" "It is said that Mr. Peng is to be the master. There is no need to ask more questions about the battalion officials who are destroying the people." "Okay!" Peng Yulin said, "Please order me!" At this moment, Zhang Hushan's face was pale and he collapsed on the ground.General Jin Shen pouted his mouth, and immediately someone came up and dragged him out.He Mu also rushed out, and nodded heavily to the criminal old master who was waiting outside the hall, indicating that he would start to do it. So the call "serve the king's order" was handed all the way to the lobby. In the middle of the lobby was a dragon pavilion, inside which was a two-foot-six-inch long blue satin rectangular flag and a seven-inch five-cent red lacquered round basswood plaque. Both the flag and the tablet have a golden word "Ling" with a combination of Manchu and Han, and the big cherry blossoms of the Ministry of War are engraved on it. After Peng Yulin bowed three times and kowtowed to Longting to the sound of drums, and stood up, the criminal room book office in Shimen County brought over a public case with his servants. The notice of Yulin's title and a beheading mark.Standing, Peng Yulin ticked Zhu, threw away his pen, and then a cannon was fired outside the gate, followed by the sound of "Wooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooolizing" the trumpet blowing, mixed with the voices of people, it seems that the peaceful Shimen County has never It's been so lively. The supervisor and beheader is Jin Shenjiang.He had already discussed it with Xingming old master, and he was afraid that Zhang Hushan's soldiers would make trouble.The criminal name old master told him not to worry, since Ma Xinyi was assassinated, in the discipline of the military camp, he paid special attention to the following criminals, and at the same time, he had sent three shifts of six-room guards to be more vigilant at the execution ground.Besides, the common people were all happy to see Zhang Hushan be beheaded, and the navy soldiers wanted to make trouble, but they also had to worry about public anger and dare not make trouble.Hearing that what he said was reasonable, General Jin Shen boldly came to the execution ground to fulfill his errand. Peng Yulin was still accompanied by He Mu, went back to the flower hall to rest, and waited quietly for Jin Shen to pay the order.As soon as he stepped through the door, he saw those gentlemen from Shimen County knelt on the ground, thanking Peng Yulin for eliminating harm for the people, and his gratitude was overflowing with words. "Thanks to Yang Futai." Peng Yulin deliberately praised Yang Changjun, "Yang Futai didn't know about Zhang Hushan's lawless behavior. If he knew, he would have ordered strict punishment." "Drinking water and thinking about the source, it's all up to Mr. Peng to decide for us." The old gentleman in the lead said, "I hope Mr. Peng will live forever!" The local gentry really expressed their heartfelt gratitude, so when Peng Yulin came to salute in the lobby, they had already made some discussions and wanted to keep him for three days, Xingye went to Hangzhou to invite the opera troupe to perform and help him, and thanked him for a public banquet.It is also necessary to collect public shares, create gold medals, and pay tribute to them.Of course, Jin Shenjiang and the county magistrate also expressed interest.But Peng Yulin resolutely refused, thanked him again and again, but to no avail, so he sailed away at Xingye. When I arrived in Hangzhou, I stayed in the "first floor of West Lake" in Yuqu Garden. Except for Yang Changjun, no one in the officialdom was socialized. I intended to linger in poetry and wine, and then went to Beijing in early August to congratulate the big wedding. Unexpectedly, on the third day, I saw two orders issued, one of which was to accuse Huang Yisheng, "I should have been punished immediately. Gu Nian should be punished by the admiral. On the river, he has repeatedly made military exploits, so he will not be excused." Naturally, the admiral of the Yangtze River Navy could not do it, and "allowed him to return to his hometown after a vacancy."The person who replaced him, because of Peng Yulin's secret protection, was Zeng Guoquan, one of the first ten generals who went to Jinling, and was awarded the title of baron. Li Chendian's younger brother Li Chengmou died of "Jiayin typhoid fever" because of the ecstasy of his achievements and overindulgence. , was transferred by the admiral of the Fujian Navy. The other one is a commentary on Peng Yulin's "discretionary planning of naval affairs, please follow the decree", saying that he "has made four points, hits the current disadvantages, and is worthy of praise", and even clips play "Please stop the navy's wanton practice of bows and arrows." , a total of five Xingge, all approved. Thanks to the emperor's kindness, Peng Yulin wanted to enter Beijing early, and it happened that Liangjiang Governor's Yamen sent a special messenger to deliver a letter, which was written by Shen Guifen, Minister of Military Affairs, urging him to see His Majesty as soon as possible.This time, he didn't want to delay any longer, his whereabouts were always simple and erratic, he left as soon as he said, and he left the next day after receiving the letter.
