Chapter 148 Dividends
Chapter 148 Dividends
It was one spring night, and the sun was already high in the sky when Liu Daogui came out of the general's mansion.
In order to win over Liu Daogui, Huan Hong was willing to spend a lot of money and sent three women in a row, including Yu Nu, all of whom were virgins.
Now that everything has been done, Liu Daogui can only take responsibility to the end.
However, it is a bit troublesome to figure out how to accommodate these three women.
The government office was full of men, and it was against the rules to have several women there. Liu Daogui was not used to being served by women, so he simply sent someone to buy a house next to the government office and let the three women live in it.
"Why are your legs so weak?" Liu Zun looked him up and down with his eyes full of ill intent.
"Bullshit, which eye of yours looks at me as weak?"
"Why are you walking so slowly? Young people should be restrained and never act recklessly." Liu Zun taught him a lesson in a serious tone.
Liu Daogui was speechless.
Liu Zun licked his lips and said, "Huan Hong didn't have any good intentions in sending you this woman. He must be a spy. Leave her to me and I will definitely be able to find out something about her."
"Then shouldn't I thank you very much?" Liu Daogui knew that he was up to no good.
This guy is extremely lustful. He has more than a dozen women in Guangling, but he is still not satisfied.
I don't know how he managed to serve me.
Liu Zun looked very proud. "The more capable, the more work. No need to talk too much among brothers. Leave this matter to me."
"If you have such thoughts again, I will have you castrated." Liu Daogui stopped and looked serious.
Even jokes have to have a limit. The situation is different now. We can't be so shameless. It doesn't matter in private, but with so many scenes involved, it will lose our credibility.
"Forget it..." Liu Zun saw that the tone was wrong, turned around and left.
But this guy was not wrong. Yu Nu should be a spy sent by Huan Hong. Liu Daogui had already experienced the intrigues and deceptions of the aristocratic families.
But women are women after all, so just be more careful in the future.
Cao Sifei was indeed surrounded by women in Lanling.
The Liu family also needs to have more children to expand the family.
At this time, Meng Ganzhi came running to report: "General, someone came from Jingkou this morning."
"Jingkou?" Liu Daogui was confused. Liu Laozhi was still in Jiankang, fighting against Huan Xuan and Yang Qunqi.
Who will come from Jingkou?
Rushing back to the government office, he saw a man looking at him with a half-smile on his face. "Agui is very successful in this army headquarters. As soon as I entered Guangling, everyone knew me."
"Brother!" Liu Daogui looked delighted. It turned out to be Liu Huaisu.
There was a person standing next to him, and it was Liu Huaishen, whom he hadn't seen for many years.
The four brothers of the Liu family are Liu Huaisu, Liu Huaijing, Liu Huaishen, and Liu Huaimo.
In recent years, Liu Huaishen studied under the famous scholar Gu Yan in Kuaiji. The Three Wus were shaken, and the Gu family was also involved in the Wang Xin Rebellion. He could no longer study and returned to Jingkou.
"Third brother." Liu Daogui bowed to Liu Huaishen.
"Agui, you are so polite." Liu Huaishen also returned the greeting.
The three of them sat down, and Liu Huaisu got straight to the point. "This time I came to Guangling, one is to visit Dao Ze, and the other is to be entrusted by A Shou to place the Zong family in the Zhenglu Army headquarters."
It turned out that he was sent by Liu Jingxuan.
However, what Liu Jingxuan meant was the same as what Liu Laozhi meant.
"It's easy."
When Liu Huaishen entered the Zhenglu Army Headquarters, Liu Daogui gained an extra helper.
Liu Huaisu said slowly, "The position of Chief of the Conquering the Enemy Army is vacant. What do you think, Agui?"
Jingkou and Guangling were both under the rule of Liu Laozhi. If he wanted to promote someone, it would only take a word from Huan Hong, and he could not refuse.
However, the Chief Secretary is in charge of all trivial matters in the military office and is a civilian position. Once Liu Daogui takes the position, he will not have much energy to take care of Lanling.
Liu Huaishen coughed lightly, and Liu Huaisu looked inexplicably nervous.
Liu Daogui immediately understood. They were not really asking for his opinion, but had already chosen someone. "Brother, you have just returned from studying, so you are just right to take on this task."
After all, we haven't seen each other for two or three years, and our feelings have become a little estranged.
Moreover, the two brothers were now Liu Jingxuan's men, while Liu Daogui had become an outsider... Liu Huaishen quickly declined, "I'm new here and don't know the ins and outs of this. I'm afraid I won't be able to take on this role."
"It's okay. With me here, you three brothers will definitely be able to keep your seat." Liu Daogui said sincerely.
I didn't have much interest in the Chief of Conquering the Enemy.
Liu Huaisu smiled and said, "A Shou has long said that A Gui is very understanding of righteousness."
"I wonder how my brother is doing in Jingkou?" Liu Daogui was worried about Liu Yu and didn't know how he was doing.
"Guard Jingkou with General Sun. Don't worry, I will definitely arrange a good position for you when Commander-in-Chief Liu returns."
Liu Laozhi is in need of talents now, and with Liu Yu's bravery, he will definitely be given an important position.
"I have another request, could you please help me?"
Liu Daogui would certainly not miss such a good opportunity.
Liu Huaisu said, "Agui, please feel free to speak up. As long as I can help, I will never refuse."
"I want to seek the position of Northern Lanling Commander."
The rank of prefect was fifth, equivalent to two thousand stones. Liu Daogui was young, his family background was too low, and the difficulty was too high, so he could only settle for the next best thing and seek a position as a county lieutenant, of the fifth rank, equivalent to two thousand stones, in charge of the county's military affairs, preparing for thieves, and managing the army on horseback and the people on foot.
If the name is not right, the words will not be convincing. With the position of captain, you can recruit soldiers openly in the future.
If he is the commander of Guangling or Jinling, it will be very difficult, after all, they are inner counties. But if he is the commander of a county on the border, it should not be difficult given Liu Laozhi's current status.
It depends on whether he is willing to help.
"Captain of Northern Lanling?" Liu Huaisu looked a little embarrassed.
Liu Daogui was also a little disappointed. "If it's difficult, just pretend I didn't say anything."
Liu Huaishen said: "If Ah Gui asks, my brother will help no matter what!"
"I can't guarantee this matter. Agui, please wait for a while. I will ask A Shou to find Governor Liu." Liu Huaisu did not completely refuse.
"Thank you very much. Just tell me how much it would cost, brother."
With favors and money, Liu Daogui didn't believe that he couldn't get things done.
"If you have money, it will be easy."
Liu Huaisu did not ask where the money came from. After having a meal, he hurried back to Jingkou, while Liu Huaishen stayed in Guangling.
Liu Daogui waited patiently for good news.
Two days later, the appointment from Jingkou came, and Liu Huaishen was appointed as the Chief of the Conquering the Enemy Army.
Huan Hong continued to be a hands-off boss and lived his life behind closed doors.
No matter how big or small the matter was in the military office, Liu Huaishen would ask Liu Daogui for advice. This cousin was indeed a man of real talent and knowledge, and he was also humble and capable. He would discuss everything with Liu Daogui, and the two brothers complemented each other.
Although he was the Chief of the Conquering the Enemy Army, the real power still fell in the hands of Liu Daogui.
"Greetings to the Military Officer, the Chief Secretary, and the Military Secretary!"
In the Sima Yamen, during a small military meeting, the officers directly ranked Liu Daogui before Liu Huaishen and Yuan He.
This made Liu Daogui feel a little uncomfortable.
"Sima, please come in." Liu Daogui made a gesture of invitation towards the seat of honor.
"Please do as I say." Ever since the last "Hongmen Banquet", Yuan He has been extremely low-key and cautious. He doesn't even manage the front line as strictly as before, and the soldiers don't listen to him much.
So just let it go.
In the military headquarters, General Huan Hong and Sima Yuan He both had the same attitude, so Liu Daogui could only reluctantly take over.
Power, money, and influence—all three were present. For the first time, Liu Daogui experienced the pleasure that power brought. Unexpectedly, in this round of power struggle, he also reaped some benefits...
"Meet General Liu!"
This time, the crowd shouted especially loudly...
