Chapter 347
For Lin Hongfei's big appetite, Wu Ziyu was unexpected. In fact, in his original idea, Lin Hongfei might ask for the territory, but he felt that Lin Hongfei would occupy the west of Henan at most.
But who would have thought that Lin Hongfei's appetite would be so great that he would swallow the whole Yu Province.
Cao Zhongsan himself is the tour envoy of the three provinces of Zhilu and Henan. If Lin Hongfei is given the province of Henan, then Cao Zhongsan will become the tour envoy of Zhilu and Henan provinces.
As a direct leader, the official position and territory are not as big as Lin Hongfei's subordinate, isn't this a joke!
But seeing Lin Hongfei's resolute attitude, and he was indeed capable of killing the entire Yu Province, Wu Ziyu couldn't persuade him anything.
In the end, Wu Ziyu could only sigh heavily: "Okay, since your attitude is so firm, then I will be a messenger and tell Cao Zhongsan all your demands."
"As for whether Cao Zhongsan can agree, then I can't do anything."
"but....."
Wu Ziyu looked at Lin Hongfei, and said sincerely: "Unless it is absolutely necessary, Hongfei, I still hope that you will not easily start a war with Cao Zhongsan."
"It's not easy for our direct lineage to have the prestige we have today. Don't lose this great advantage because of internal strife!"
Lin Hongfei nodded and said, "Uncle, don't worry, as long as Cao Zhongsan agrees to my three requirements and promises not to provoke me in the future, then I, Lin Hongfei, will also promise you."
"No matter what happens in the future, Cao Zhongsan will always be the leader of the direct line, and I will never provoke him to any war!"
Wu Ziyu nodded with some relief. To get such a guarantee from Lin Hongfei, his trip was not in vain.
After a day's rest in western Henan, Wu Ziyu took the train to the capital again. Lin Hongfei and Cao Zhongsan had a conflict, but he, the middleman in charge of negotiating peace, was too busy.
After Wu Ziyu arrived in the capital, he didn't rest, and went straight to Cao Zhongsan's mansion to tell all about his conversation with Lin Hongfei.
Originally, after hearing the news that Lin Hongfei would not leave the direct lineage, Cao Zhongsan had a relieved smile on his face.
But then Wu Ziyu raised Lin Hongfei's three demands one by one.
"Old man, Hongfei has made three requests. As long as you agree, I will do my best to assist you in achieving your great cause."
When Cao Zhongsan heard this, he immediately asked, "Tell me, as long as it's reasonable, I'll be satisfied!"
Wu Ziyu nodded and said: "The first request, Hongfei hopes that Yanqing will go to the west of Henan Province to take the blame."
Cao Zhongsan immediately responded: "No problem, I have already asked Yan Qing to prepare a generous gift, as long as Hong Fei agrees, within three days, Yan Qing will go to the west of Henan to plead guilty."
"What's the second request?"
Wu Ziyu said: "The second request is to release all his subordinates in the capital, entrust them with important positions, and promise not to dispose of or detain his subordinates arbitrarily in the future."
After Cao Zhongsan heard it, he also nodded slightly, as if he had already been mentally prepared for this request:
"This is also possible. I have already thought about it. After the subordinates who left Hongfei in the capital are released, they will be assigned the positions of chief of police of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and chief of the capital's police department."
"If they want to get a military rank, I can also ask the Ministry of War to issue them a commission!"
Letting Sun Tie and others be promoted to the positions of Chief of Police and Chief of Police is tantamount to handing over the police affairs in the capital to Lin Hongfei's remote control. This result is already considered good.
Wu Ziyu looked at Cao Zhongsan's smiling face, thinking that if I made the third request, you would definitely not be able to laugh.
Sure enough, when Wu Ziyu said Lin Hongfei's request to be promoted to the patrol envoy of the three provinces of Shanyuling, Cao Zhongsan's expression immediately changed, and even his breathing became a little short.
Wu Ziyu watched helplessly as Cao Zhongsan's hand holding the tea bowl had bulging veins, as if he was about to throw the tea bowl out in a second.
"Ziyu, this request is a little too much!" Cao Zhongsan said with a suppressed anger.
In Cao Zhongsan's view, this request is really outrageous. Isn't it enough for you, Lin Hongfei, a direct junior, to be a tour envoy of two provinces?
He even wanted to swallow Yu Province too!
Could it be that Liu Zhenhua's Yuxi still can't feed you enough?
What's more, if you occupy Henan province, then my name as the inspector of the three provinces of Zhilu and Henan is still useless!
I became a tour envoy of two provinces!
So this is directly related to who is the boss?
However, Wu Ziyu did not mediate from it, and he also knew that Lin Hongfei was bound to win Yu Province, and he could not mediate.
So, Wu Ziyu sighed softly and said, "Old man, I have talked with Hongfei several times, but Hongfei's attitude has always been very firm."
"And he told me personally, if you don't agree to hand over Yu Province to him, old man, then he will lead his own troops to fight it down."
"Presumably you know the fighting power of the Shanling Army, and you naturally know Hongfei's temper."
"If he dares to say that, he will naturally dare to do it!"
Cao Zhongsan's face was as ugly as if he had eaten a dead fly, and the swear words in his stomach were stuck in his throat, and he couldn't get out of his mouth after trying to scold him several times.
No way, the situation is pressing!
Although the entire direct lineage has many soldiers and generals, but it can really fight troops, one is Wu Ziyu's direct lineage troops, and the other is Lin Hongfei's Shanling Army.
If Lin Hongfei was rejected, he would really have the strength to bring down Yu Province.
At that time, could it be possible to send Wu Ziyu to attack Lin Hongfei?
What a joke!
After thinking about it in every possible way, Cao Zhongsan finally let out a long sigh helplessly, and said with a face ashen ashes:
"Okay, I'll follow him!"
"I'll ask my subordinates to draw up a letter of appointment and promote him to be the patrol envoy of the three provinces of Shaanxi, Yuling, and take charge of all military and political affairs in Henan Province."
After finishing speaking, Cao Zhongsan seemed to have been drained of all the energy in his body, and his whole body was slumped on the chair without strength.
"How did this matter become like this?" Cao Zhongsan was a little puzzled.
When this news reached Li Yanqing's ears, Li Yanqing's first reaction was that the old man was confused, how could he agree to Lin Hongfei's exaggerated request?
He immediately thought of going to the Marshal's Mansion to persuade the Marshal to take back his order, but before he could leave, Li Yanqing sat back down in his seat again.
The old handsome has spoken, which shows that he is really helpless towards Lin Hongfei.
I, the instigator, persuaded him in the past, but I got nothing but two big mouths.
"Ugh!"
"Why did I provoke this evil star?"
After Li Yanqing let out a long sigh, he got up decadently, and asked his servants to load the generous gifts he had prepared into the car, then went to the train station and headed south to the west of Henan.
The old handsome even told him to go to the west of Henan to plead guilty, so he should go honestly, so as not to make the old handsome unhappy again, and lose the old handsome's love for him.
So, Li Yanqing got into the car and headed towards the train station with anxiety in his heart.
And in the trunk of the car, there was still a small bundle of wattles. It was Li Yanqing's plan to follow the example of the ancients, and was going to make amends to Lin Hongfei with the wattles on his back.
