Listening to Wang Qiqin talk about the past, Li Fu's face was a little more complicated, he was very smart and studious since he was a child, he could write poetry at the age of ten, and everyone thought he was a prodigy, but later Li Fu was not considered to have insulted his talent.

Last year, Li Fu was even promoted to a cabinet bachelor, and concurrently served as the left deputy capital imperial history, which was simply red and purple. However, just this year, Li Fu served as the deputy examiner of the examination, and there was a case of fraud in the scientific examination, and he was impeached by Yu Shi Shuku, and he was dismissed from the official on the charge of concealment, and was demoted from a cabinet bachelor to a river worker of Yongding River.

Now when he heard Wang Qiqin mention the sad matter, Li Fu just sighed in his heart, and said: "What the teacher said, the students dare not agree. As for this great head, if the teacher wants to take it, it's just a pity that everyone, after all, it will inevitably accompany the students to death. ”

As soon as these words came out, the thoughts of everyone present were exposed, it was a matter of life and death, and at that moment, Deng Yi couldn't care about decency, and sneered: "What Mr. Mu Tang said, isn't it cowardly and begging for mercy?" ”

Li Fu sighed and said softly: "Now that the dead end is in sight, you can't see or hear, the 20,000 troops led by Ning Yu outside the city have surrounded Nanchang, and the cannon roar that resounded through the world has been around for an hour, and the city walls in the southeast corner are about to collapse!" ”

"If you are willing to die with the city, you can behead the students right now, and the students will only die, and it is not a pity to die. It's just that your lordships and the people of this city can stop for a long time? One hour or two hours? ”

"Attacking an army of 20,000 with 3,000 weak brigades in the city is undoubtedly better than hitting a stone with an egg! Teacher, you have been an official in Jiangxi for so many years, and you are willing to see the people all over the city die? ”

Wang Qiqin sighed deeply, he didn't understand this path, but he was loyal to the country, which made Wang Qiqin unable to tolerate other ideas. He was unwilling to betray the court, but he was also unwilling to sacrifice the people.

"That Ning thief.... Can Ning Yu have a rhetoric? ”

"Qi Qi teacher, Ning Yu gave the students half a day, if the teacher is willing to surrender the city, the Fu Han army will ensure that the autumn will not be committed, if you are willing to stay in Jiangxi, you can cut off your hair braids and continue to be an official in Jiangxi."

Li Fu glanced around at the adults, and then said with a smile: "If the adults want to continue to serve the imperial court, the Fu Han Army will not stop them, and allow you to take your families to the north." ”

Wang Qiqin glanced at the other officials, although they were restraining themselves, the light in their eyes could not be hidden, they wanted to live, they wanted to be officials, and they didn't want to sacrifice everything for this court.

That's it, Wang Qiqin sighed lowly, he is not the kind of person who likes to use the lives of the people to dye his top red, he stood up and walked over to support Li Fu's arm.

"Julai, the old man has been appreciated by the emperor, and he feels ashamed, so this bone is thrown here. Ladies and gentlemen, it's time for us to think about the people! ”

The officials wanted to live, and they all pushed the boat down the river, and went out with Li Fu to open the door to welcome the Fu Han army into the city. Only Wang Qiqin walked into the study room in the yamen, hung a rope, and hanged himself.

..........................................................................................................................................

Ning Yubing took Nanchang without blood, and he was naturally very happy in his heart, and at the same time he was very curious about Li Fu, and only after the shadow intelligence did he learn that this seemingly inconspicuous middle-aged man had such qualifications and energy, and he could be called a first-class talent.

Since he had met a talent, Ning Yu naturally didn't want to let it go easily, so he prepared a table of food, wine and meat, and sent someone to invite Li Fu over.

At this time, Li Fu changed into a green shirt and a small folding fan in his hand, and shook his way when he walked, showing the celebrity and gentleman in his bones to the fullest.

If it weren't for Ning Yu's appearance before seeing Li Fu, otherwise he wouldn't be able to associate the image of asking for the people's life with this person, and the difference in this image is really too big.

Li Fu was not polite at all, he rolled up his sleeves and held the wine jar, poured himself a bowl of wine, and then lowered his head to smell it deeply, and let out a sigh of satisfaction.

"The 30-year-old champion red is really a good wine, and it is a pity to use it for students to drink." Li Fu drank all the wine in the bowl, but he said such a thing, which made Ning Yu a little surprised.

"Mr. has also been in high school to solve the yuan, this champion will not insult the identity of the gentleman, but the governor is a little curious, you are really my master's best friend?" Ning Yu lifted the wine jar and poured another bowl of wine for Li Fu.

Li Fu picked up the bowl but didn't rush to drink, his voice was a little lonely, "I am the same age as your master, and we also exchanged knowledge together when we were young, but I am inseparable from him in learning, and we are also dissatisfied with each other, and there have been some correspondence over the years." ”

"Oh? My master is now a big Chu rebellion, and he was arrested by the imperial court with a reward, and Mr. was only dismissed this year, but he was still prosperous before. ”

The meaning of Ning Yu's words is very simple, since you are all high-ranking officials in the imperial court, and you are still exchanging letters with a rebel, who are you fooling here.

Li Fu was extremely smart, so he naturally understood what Ning Yu was thinking, and explained aloud: "I did have correspondence with your master, but it was relatively hidden, and later I was involved in the turmoil of the imperial court, and I was dismissed and demoted to a river worker, and my life was almost hanging by a thread - you must also know that the matter of the river worker, how can I do it as a scholar." ”

"Your master later sent someone to quietly take me to Wuchang, and then it was at that time that I met the King of Chu. At that time, you were still fighting in Jiangxi, and the king of Chu sent me here to assist you. ”

Ning Yu suddenly realized in his heart, it turned out that there were still hands and feet of Dad and Cui Wancai, and he was a little ashamed at the moment, touched his nose, and said with a smile: "I see, but it is not the kid, but he has wronged Mr., please don't blame Mr." ”

After speaking, Ning Yu got up and bowed, which can be regarded as expressing his apologies, he has always done things like this, a mistake is a mistake, and an attitude of admitting mistakes needs to be correct.

Li Fu smiled, but accepted this salute calmly, and said softly: "Do you think that I persuaded Nanchang to surrender this time, really just to save the life of the master?" That's just one of the reasons. ”

Ning Yu was a little curious, and hurriedly raised the bowl and drank it all, "Please also ask Mr. for advice." ”

"In fact, whether this battle is fought or not has little impact, and whether Nanchang has no impact is not great, the key is that now the Fu Han army has taken almost the entire territory of Jiangxi. If you make a big move at this time, it will hurt the hearts of your own people. These sons, which one of them is not sticking to the old one, and now persuading them to surrender can unite people's hearts as quickly as possible and realize the decisive battle of the vast number of lakes. ”

"The decisive battle of the lake?" Ning Yu's heart jumped, this was also something he had been promoting, but he was seen through all of a sudden, and he was inevitably a little flustered.

Li Fu smiled, "Actually, the decisive battle in Huguang is no longer a secret, because even Kangxi wants to have a decisive battle with you, so as to completely solve the Huguang war." He can't afford to drag it out! ”
