The green trees are thick and the summer days are long, and the buildings are reflected in the pond.

"People, the more you grow up, the more complicated it becomes!" Lingwu Hou Bai Yanqiu looked at the turquoise lake and was quite melancholy, and sighed after saying this.

"All things have spirits, nothing else. It is best guided only when the consciousness of the young age is not yet formed, and there is no distinction between rich and poor, and the complex minds of adults are difficult to control. Therefore, adult beggars are difficult to control, but young beggars are the best, a piece of bread and a piece of sugar can be well collected for their own use, if you add more patience and care, then they will recognize you as a relative. The Hou Mansion has always gotten along well with them, and they can be regarded as helping each other. Lingwu Hou was honest with Cui Hanzhang and taught the Hou Mansion the secret of accepting beggars as ears and eyes.

Cui Hanzhang said: "Not to mention far away, the ready-made strange beast Xiaobai is like this, the little guy is the easiest to be bought by food, and he is closer to Cui Bo than anyone else." ran to the Hou Mansion to eat fragrant and drink spicy food, and didn't miss home at all. ”

"Don't think that beggars are like ants, but the weakest weeds are the most tenacious. If Ben Hou hadn't been rescued by a group of beggars when he was a child, I'm afraid he wouldn't have been able to sit here and talk to you. ”

"Actually, according to my observation, there is a person in Xiaolian Village who is naturally suitable for mixing on the streets, if he can leave everything behind and break into this group of beggars, with his hob meat temperament and the operation behind the two of us, he will definitely make a difference."

"Maybe you and I have seen the day when he built the loose beggar organization into the largest gang in the world, you must know that there are thousands of beggars all over Kyushu, and I am looking forward to the scene of the beggar gang coming out, I believe that at that time, whether it is the gangs in the rivers and lakes, or the temple forces will be surprised." Ling Wuhou reminded Cui Hanzhang again, in fact, he had a card in his hand, and playing this card well would have an unexpected effect.

Cui Hanzhang is so smart, he guessed that he was talking about Brother Xuan'er, "Now that he is in the southwest border, he can't reach the whip, I'm afraid he won't be able to come back in a short time." ”

"The scenery should be long-term and look at the quantity, not for a while, let him slowly develop in the southwest, take every step of the way, we secretly build momentum for him in Taikang, fortunately, the beggar gang is only in the embryonic stage, Benhou has secretly cultivated a group of orphans, just wait for them to grow up slowly, and assist Brother Xuan to control the beggar gang." Lingwuhou told him what he was secretly planning.

"I'll send a letter of resignation to Brother Xuan'er, listen to his thoughts first, things can only be worked out slowly."

"Brother Xuan'er's business, you put it aside, a little beggar here on my side has heard some news, and someone in the ghost market is buying iron at a high price. And I asked them to check the situation for nearly half a year, and every once in a while, someone would take away the iron in the ghost market at a high price. Bai Yanqiu said the news he received recently.

Cui Hanzhang asked, "Stalking?" ”

Bai Yanqiu replied: "The other party is very vigilant, and the anti-reconnaissance ability is first-class, if you want to keep an eye on it, it is equivalent to ascending to the sky!" ”

Cui Hanzhang touched his chin with his hand and said: "I will lift the ban in two days, and I have to check the situation of the Arsenal Division on the casting of iron, the ironware shops in the ghost market are at best the level of small workshops, if there is no iron flowing out of the arsenal, the ghost will believe it." ”

"I can't get involved in the affairs of the Ministry of War, you are the Sima of the Ministry of War, and the affairs of the Treasury Department will be investigated by you, and I will continue to send people to keep an eye on the ghost market."

"Ben Hou helps you calculate the days, this is not for you to just be in time for the banquet in the palace. The matter has been prepared for a long time, and the Holy Lord personally invited the Northern Hu Council and the delegation to show his sincerity. Bai Yanqiu smiled mysteriously and teased.

Cui Hanzhang said: "Are you sure that the Great Banquet and the Mission are not a trick? The saint didn't even see his own courtiers, so why did he want to hold a banquet to entertain the envoys of other families? Did you send you an errand in private? ”

Bai Yanqiu: "In the last sentence of the saint, Ben Hou broke his leg. If you can't do a good job, where is the face to ask for credit! ”

Cui Hanzhang: "I'm afraid the saint is taking this opportunity to show the world!" ”

Bai Yanqiu patted him on the shoulder and said, "Clever! Ben Hou loves to chat with you, worry-free! ”

Bai Yanqiu moved his body, lowered his voice and whispered: "The two kings stand side by side, the saint has not been in the court for three months, it is difficult to see each other in this year, and the hearts of the people in the world are floating!" ”

"And it was Niu Malan who found out that the Beihu delegation had another plan to come to Taikang this time, and the people of the Green Water Camp seemed to have infiltrated Taikang City, and the saint asked me to search the mission through the palace banquet."

Cui Hanzhang has long been suspicious of the Beihu Parliament and the Mission, and that night at the Yushan Racecourse, he found that someone was visiting Fulongzhi Wutang and the Prayer Pagoda at night, and he was almost plotted by the other party after a fight.

Bai Yanqiu was mysterious at first, and then patted him on the shoulder and said loudly: "I know that you are lovesick, and I will ensure that you can see Princess Yunlan on the day of the banquet." ”

"Oh?"

"His Majesty decreed that all the princes and princesses in Taikang should attend the banquet." "What do you mean? The two countries have diplomatic relations, isn't it normal for the prince and princess to participate in the banquet? ”

"It's strange to be normal, it's normal for me to join the army with the prince, but it won't make the princesses show up. Think about it, what is the ending of this kind of story in the history books? Not to mention, what happened to Princess Chaoyun of the former Great Zhou? If a dynasty is reduced to allowing harem ladies to participate in such disputes, it will most likely not end well. ”

Cui Hanzhang felt that his statement was too exaggerated, "Yan Qiu is too worried, the Northern Expedition has played the momentum of our dynasty, and now it has the upper hand in the game between the two countries, and the general trend of the world is my divine light." ”

"This is also true, with the temperament of our saints, we will definitely not let the harem ladies work for the former courtiers. In this way, it will only make the world laugh, and I don't know how to write it in the history books in the future! ”

Bai Yanqiu got up and sprinkled the bait in his hand into the lake, causing several koi fish to surface and scramble, and said leisurely before leaving: "I hope I have been thinking too much." ”

Cui Hanzhang looked up at the sky, this Xiaoxiao rain is endless.

Bai Yanqiu didn't say a word, 'Now Beihu is the Son of Heaven guarding the country, and he has the determination to die as a king. He didn't say it, Cui Hanzhang understood, and they tacitly agreed with each other.

"Qingfeng, do you remember the large number of homeless people over there in Jiatong Pass." Cui Hanzhang looked at the koi fish grabbing food in the lake and asked.

"My subordinates remember that there are indeed a lot of displaced people, most of whom fled from the destruction of their homes along the border between the two countries, and there are also many displaced people in the direction of Beihai Jianzhou in the later period." Xu Qingfeng remembered the beggars, and they were indispensable in the streets and alleys.

"I remember that there are a lot of children among these homeless people, and there was a group of beggars in Jiatong Pass at the beginning, you go and find a way to invite them to Taikang, remember not to use force. The border is full of war, these children are in danger, they come to Taikang to beg for a living, at least not worry about three meals, Xiaolianzhuang will usually take care of it, and help each other when needed. Cui Hanzhang instructed him to go to other places to recruit some beggars to come to Taikang.

Cui Hanzhang stopped Xu Qingfeng, who had just turned around, and said, "Let's let Liu Datou do it!" He has a lot of experience in dealing with beggars, and he must bring more money, and he must not find out his origin, so as not to be mixed in by the people of the Wild Wolf Regiment of the Green Water Camp. ”

In Xu Qingfeng's opinion, Liu Datou does have the means, this person is a typical hob meat, "The subordinates will do it." ”
