Lin Jinyue has already made a detailed plan in the past two days.
She made detailed plans for her father, from how to persuade them to how to settle them.
Finally, she said, "Father, now that the person has been saved, I'm going to find Xie Hong. I need to think of a way to bring Gu Shao back as well."
Lin Shucheng: "How about we go directly to Guangcheng?"
Lin Jinyue shook her head: "It's okay, I'll try it first."
Lin Jinyue didn't know if the plan would succeed.
In fact, she was also worried that if she rashly took Gu Shao away, it might drive Xie Hong crazy, such as causing him to launch a frenzied attack on their village.
With so many military weapons, Lin Jinyue wasn't too afraid to directly confront those armies, after all, she had firearms at her disposal.
However, those soldiers who led the vanguard were ordinary people from Lingnan.
They can only follow military orders.
When Gu Shao raised funds, in addition to wealthy families donating money, ordinary people also squeezed out every last penny to send food and supplies to the military camp.
The soldiers all said they would defend Lingnan to the death.
In fact, many of them may have been personally taught by Lin Xueqing.
Lin Jinyue really couldn't bring herself to do it.
Lin Jinyue thought to herself that it would be best to find a suitable opportunity.
Two days later, Lin Jinyue went to the military camp again and gave Xie Hong a sketch of a crossbow.
That's right, it's a sketch.
You can make it by copying, but you need to pay attention to many details of the parts.
Lin Jinyue knew that Xie Hong was insatiable. If he brought new things every time he came, his appetite would only grow bigger and bigger.
Ideally, a drawing should keep him hanging for a month, at least until she can convince the Gu family.
Just two nights ago, she was discussing with her father the best option: for the Gu family to establish their own independent territory in Lingnan, so that Yunhe Village and the Gu family could coexist peacefully.
I wonder if her father can make this happen.
Anyway, she and Xie Hong had agreed to meet once every ten days, so there was plenty of time.
Otherwise, shall we go back to Yunhe Village and take a look?
She was worried that her father wouldn't be able to persuade the Gu family.
It would be a good opportunity to go back and discuss with my family how to rescue Gu Shao.
Lin Jinyue immediately took a boat back to Yunhe Village. Tan Xue was temporarily unable to meet with Marquis Yong'an and stayed at the governor's mansion.
When she returned, the village was in complete chaos.
Lin Jinyue quickly went over to ask, and it turned out that Marquis Yong'an had seen Old Master Tan and was cursing him.
Marquis Yong'an: "You old codger, you actually colluded with this group of people!"
Old Tan snorted coldly: "What collusion? I just happened to be saved by this group."
Marquis Yong'an gritted his teeth: "These thieves kidnapped my son and forced my wife to pay 100,000 taels of gold to ransom him. And you, you actually joined them!"
“When Feng’er was little, she used to respectfully call you ‘teacher’. How could you be so heartless?”
Old Tan touched his nose, recalling what Ye Feng had said.
As expected, Marquis Yong'an is a reckless man who only knows how to fight. It would be more important to use some tricks to get his father to move to Yunhe Village.
The other villagers have been treating Marquis Yong'an quite well these past few days.
I just tried my best to remain indifferent.
Well, I feel a bit sorry for the money that Ye Feng, the God of Wealth, gave me.
He never skimped on the Marquis of Yong'an's food, clothing, housing, or transportation.
This has led to the Marquis of Yong'an getting a bit arrogant lately, and he even dared to cause trouble in the village.
Lin Jinyue ignored him and simply frowned, asking, "Do you still want to see your son? If you do, behave yourself."
At this, Marquis Yong'an fell silent.
He just stared blankly at Old Tan.
Then he looked at the Gu family members and was furious.
Lin Jinyue said to Liu Dazhuang, "Uncle Dazhuang, take him back to rest first. I have something to discuss with Old Tan."
Marquis Yong'an glared even more fiercely.
Seeing that Elder Tan had become Lin Jinyue's confidant, she was even more furious.
Once he rescues his son, he will definitely raze Yunhe Village to the ground!
Lin Jinyue has come back this time for an important matter.
She first asked Old Tan and was relieved to learn that his people were all well.
After inquiring about Grandpa Gu's condition and learning that the old man was doing well, Lin Jinyue breathed a sigh of relief.
She thought for a moment, then looked at the only able-bodied man in the Gu family and led him to the conference room.
This person must be from Gu Shao's uncle or elder generation, someone who fought on the battlefield. Even though he tried his best to appear gentle, his gaze was still somewhat sharp.
Lin Jinyue wasn't afraid of him. She flashed a bright white smile and asked, "Uncle, what have you thought about what my father told you?"
Gu Yanfeng, Gu Shao's uncle, is also the only surviving son of General Gu.
He shook his head: "My family was appreciated by the late emperor, and I must not let him down."
Lin Jinyue had already anticipated his answer, and uttered the prepared reply: "But, if the late emperor were alive, would he want to see the people suffering like this?"
Gu Yanfeng immediately fell silent.
Lin Jinyue continued, "The late emperor was wise and the country was peaceful and prosperous when he was alive. If he could be brought back to life, the first thing he would do is to kill the current emperor who listens to sycophants."
“General, the late emperor was benevolent and righteous, and would certainly not want to see the people suffer. Now that you have come to Lingnan, you must at least protect the people of Lingnan from being harmed by Prince Jing and Xie Hong. It is not too late for you to submit to a new wise ruler in the future.”
Gu Yanfeng frowned.
I felt that something was off about Lin Jinyue's words, but they also made a lot of sense.
Lin Jinyue's little mouth was still chattering.
The story begins with Xie Hong's inhuman behavior, and then recounts how the men of Lingnan are all chivalrous and courageous, willing to risk their lives to defend Lingnan.
When Lin Jinyue spoke, she used a little bit of the art of language.
He spoke to those Lingnan people who were reluctant to join the army, making them understand the greater good:
"General Gu, those who went to the battlefield, the youngest of whom were only twelve years old, and those who abandoned their studies to join the army, all of them went to the battlefield without hesitation, vowing to protect the people of Lingnan to the death. The wealthy households and people of various counties donated military supplies free of charge, hoping that as many soldiers as possible could return."
As she spoke, her little face was filled with grief and indignation: "But that damned Xie Hong is inhuman!"
"Originally, the army and the people were of one mind, and morale was high. But he imprisoned General Gu because of personal grudges. When I went to the military camp, I saw that General Gu was covered in wounds and was even starving..."
"Look at Xie Hong's men, they're all indulging in debauchery, completely lacking military discipline. How can such a disorganized force defeat Prince Jing?"
Lin Jinyue initially spoke with a mix of truth and falsehood, but in the end, she became increasingly angry, and when she thought of Xie Hong, she wished she could kill him.
When she looked at Gu Yanfeng again, she saw that he seemed somewhat hesitant.
Lin Jinyue then said no more.
She just looked at him expectantly.
Gu Yanfeng hesitated for a long time, his face full of struggle.
Finally, he said, "I will discuss this with my father after he wakes up."
