Daming: Becoming a Jinyiwei at the beginning

"Homeowner!"

Several elders of the Murong family anxiously ran to the arena and quickly fed Murong Shiqing the pill.

Under the high platform, it seemed extremely quiet at the moment.

The Murong family is not considered weak in this Huguang land, and Murong Shiqing, as the head of the Murong family, is said to have already reached the fifth level of Tiangang.

Although Murong Shiqing is the strongest in the Murong family, but the strongest in the fifth layer of Tiangang is not weak in the martial arts world.

Lin Mang sat back on the chair, smiled slightly, and asked, "Everyone... are you convinced now?"

in silence,

Zhao Yuntian, the leader of the Changtian Gang just stood up first, cupped his hands and said, "My Changtian Gang would like Master Zun Lin to be the leader!"

As soon as the words fell, the rest of the people looked at each other and got up to agree.

After all, they are not those top big factions whose arms cannot twist their thighs.

Even if they didn't kill a third-rank official who died here, the court would obviously believe Jin Yiwei's words more.

Even if it is false, the court will make it true.

Everyone wailed inwardly.

They just came to participate in a martial arts conference, why did it become like this today.

Lin Mang smiled.

The cannon fodder for the next battle is there.

……

Jingzhou City,

State government office.

Looking at the secret report sent, Li Wengui's expression darkened instantly.

"It's really a bunch of trash!"

There are so many masters in the White Lotus Sect, they can't even take down a mere vertical stone.

"shadow!"

After the words fell, a thin figure in black clothes appeared out of nowhere behind Li Wengui, kneeling on one knee.

A playful smile suddenly appeared on Li Wengui's face, and he threw the secret report in his hand to him.

"Send this thing to Beijing and hand it over to Yang Hexiu, the household department."

"Presumably...he should be very happy."

"Yes!" The shadow said silently, and the figure disappeared from the spot in an instant.

Li Wengui's half smile was not a smile, he knew exactly what those old guys in Beijing were thinking.

They will never be in a hurry until the rebel army reaches the capital.

They even hope that this battle will last longer, because then they will gain more benefits.

Some things, in fact, do not need to do it yourself.

Li Wengui planted a flag on the sand table, a slight smile appeared on his cold face.

"Luo Shangzhi, I don't know how you will deal with it next."

……

Xiangyang prefect yamen.

Lin Mang put down the list in his hand, and said with a sneer, "This guy is really good at everything."

On this list, all transactions of Yan Bingcheng are recorded in detail.

What year, what month, what date, the number of gifts given to whom, every stroke is clearly recorded.

Obviously, this guy is not as stupid as he appears on the surface, and he secretly kept a hand behind his back.

This thing should be his amulet.

On this list, the one who gave the most gifts was the Minister of the Household Department, Yang Hexiu.

From the beginning as the county magistrate, he has been giving gifts to other officials.

From the initial hundred taels, to thousand taels, and then to tens of thousands of taels.

After he became the magistrate, at least 2 taels of silver were given to Yang Hexiu almost every year.

During the 15 years since he served as the magistrate of Jingzhou until he became the governor of Huguang, the total gifts to Yang Hexiu were equivalent to nearly 88 taels of silver.

Among them, the cash silver alone is as high as 50 taels.

If you add the 20 relief money this time, the amount will be as high as more than 100 million taels.

And this was only given by Yan Bingcheng alone!

From this we can see how much the one in Beijing has accumulated.

Of course, these gifts are not just silver taels, there are many antique calligraphy and paintings, antique treasures.

Even so, it is still an extremely large sum.

It is estimated that the private property of the minister of the household department is more than that of the entire household department.

It made him want to go to Beijing as soon as possible, and hack him to death with a knife, so as to ensure that he would be promoted to the master in place.

"My lord." Tang Qi cupped his hands and said, "20 taels were found in Yan Bingcheng's residence."

Lin Mang tapped the table with his index finger and sighed softly, "Let's find a way to send it to General Luo."

Counting on the capital to allocate food and salaries, it is unknown how much will come in the end.

After peeling off layer by layer, 5 taels is not bad.

Hundreds of thousands of soldiers eat horse chews, plus shelter and appease refugees from all over the country, all of which need money.

Even the 20 taels is probably a drop in the bucket.

As for myself, the big deal is to spend a little more trouble and kill a few more masters of the rivers and lakes.

"I understand." Tang Qi nodded slightly, and quietly backed out.

Lin Mang took out the Tianshan Snow Lotus from the box and swallowed it slowly.

In an instant, the zhenqi surged in the body, and a warm zhenqi flowed slowly between the limbs and bones.

Not only was the fatigue of many days swept away, but the mental loss from performing the Dafa of obsessing before was instantly recovered.

After a long time, Lin Mang slowly opened his eyes with a smile on his face.

Although the increase in strength was not much, the Tianshan Snow Lotus Order made him invulnerable to all poisons.

……

In the next few days, Lin Mang was integrating the various forces participating in the martial arts conference.

Winning, beating, pulling a group to fight a group, and even controlling some masters with life and death talismans.

Once on the boat, it is not so easy to think about it.

According to the final statistics, there are nine strong people in the Tiangang realm, but most of them are below the third level of Tiangang.

If it is a real top school, it will not participate in this kind of martial arts conference.

However, with this group of masters in the rivers and lakes, it will have a great effect on the next battle.

Jin Yiwei is not weak in terms of military investigation and personal combat power, but after all, it lacks enough top combat power.

When the various sects were being integrated, Lin Mang sent a message to Luo Shangzhi with a flying eagle to inform him of the matter, and at the same time asked the leaders of the various sects to send people to join the army one after another.

After dealing with the affairs of Xiangyang Mansion, Lin Mang and his party hurried to Chengtian Mansion again.

Two days after the raid, Lin Mang led a group of Jianghu masters back to Chengtian Mansion.

As soon as he entered the city, Luo Shangzhi responded, clasped his fists solemnly and said, "Brother Lin, thank you for your kindness!"

"My brother has made a note of this matter. If there is an order in the future, if I can do it in the future, I will definitely do it."

The change in his attitude can be seen in a simple salutation.

20 taels, and a group of Jianghu masters, this can be called a big gift.

Lin Mang smiled and said, "Brother Luo is too polite."

"These are all my duties."

With Luo Shangzhi's words, his 20 taels of silver were not given away in vain.

After all, this is a famous general of the Zhejiang Army. He holds the military power in his hands. He is not weak in terms of power or personal strength. Instead of making friends, he might be able to use this relationship someday.

He is not as loyal as Cheng Hongnian, and he only wants to cling to the imperial power.

The two exchanged simple greetings, then walked towards the government office in the city.

On the way, Lin Mang asked about the situation of the war.

Luo Shangzhi said in a deep voice: "That iron-faced grand master is nothing to be afraid of, they are all a bunch of mobs, and I can wipe them out within a month."

"The real trouble is the left governor."

Lin Mang paused and asked in surprise, "Is he very powerful?"

He didn't understand military matters, so he rarely intervened. Whatever Luo Shangzhi said, they just cooperated fully.

During this period of time, because he was in Xiangyang, he never paid attention to the war.

Judging from Luo Shangzhi's tone now, it seems that the battle is not going well.

Luo Shangzhi nodded, and said in a deep voice: "The army under his command is all elite and powerful, and this person's formation is not weaker than that of a battle-tested veteran."

That alone is hard to come by.

The southern army under his command has been fighting against the southeast Japanese pirates all year round, and has rich combat experience.

Luo Shangzhi said with a smile: "But I'm curious, how Master Lin made those Jiang Hu people join us on their own initiative."

"I heard that Lord Lin is still the leader of this Huguang martial arts world."

At the beginning, a group of people from the Jianghu martial arts entered the city one after another, saying that they wanted to assist in the battle, which almost made him mistakenly think that these Jianghu people were spies sent by the enemy.

There was a hint of teasing in Luo Shangzhi's words.

Lin Mang was not annoyed at Luo Shangzhi's half-joking words.

Being able to speak in such a tone in the other party's status really puts him on an equal footing.

Holding the knife, Lin Mang laughed and said, "It's very simple!"

As he spoke, he lit up the Xiuchun knife in Liang's hand, and said in a cold voice: "Cut off those who don't agree, and the rest will naturally obey."

Luo Shangzhi was taken aback for a moment, then quickly praised with a smile: "Domineering!"

After the two entered the government office, Luo Shangzhi's soldiers poured a cup of tea for them.

Immediately, Luo Shangzhi waved his hand to signal his soldiers to leave, and said with a smile: "I heard that Master Lin is proficient in bowing, today's courteous reciprocity will add to Master Lin."

After finishing speaking, he got up and went to the inner hall, and quickly fetched a long brocade box.

"This is?"

"Open it and see."

Luo Shangzhi smiled and pushed the brocade box in front of Lin Mang.

Lin Mang opened it curiously, and his eyes were attracted by the items in it for a moment.

In the brocade box, there is a huge black bow, exuding an icy chill.

The moment I stretched out my hand to touch it, there was a bone-chilling feeling, with a strong evil spirit faintly.

overbearing!

There is a domineering artistic conception on this bow.

Luo Shangzhi smiled and said: "This is the Overlord's Bow. It is said that it was used by the Overlord of Chu. I got it by accident."

"It is said that this bow is made of black iron and weighs five hundred catties. The bow string is made of the tendons of the deep-sea black dragon, and it is very difficult for humans to pull it."
