The Fuzhou stopped outside the Thousand Households in Fushan, Shandong, and Wang Zhaoxing accompanied Xu Lang to stand on the bow of the ship. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

"Xu Lang, Beiming has already returned to Beijing, do you really want to go to Fushan Institute alone, and you don't need me to accompany you?" Wang Zhaoxing was a little worried.

"Lao Wang, there's nothing to worry about." Xu Lang smiled, "What are I afraid of when I go back to my own home, you should also hurry back and do your own work, all of which are a bunch of things." Didn't Gao Chen also bring a platoon of soldiers, and we also dealt with Feng Kaizhong. ”

"Okay then." Wang Zhaoxing saluted, "Take care." ”

The Fuzhou put down Xu Lang and Gao Chen's guard platoon and set sail, Xu Lang watched the Fuzhou slowly disappear into the sea, turned his head and shouted to Gao Chen: "Staff Officer Gao, let's enter the city." ”

More than 30 soldiers carried flintlock pistols and followed Xu Lang and Gao Chen to the city of Fushan Thousand Households, and the gate of Fushan was closed again.

"Is there anyone in the city?" Gao Chen walked to the gate of the city and raised his head and shouted, "We are the people of Hainan Wei, this is a guerrilla general canonized by the imperial court, please talk to your Lord Feng Kaizhong." ”

After half a day's effort, Feng Kaizhong's head stretched out from the city: "Who is below, this official is Feng Kaizhong of a thousand households." ”

Xu Lang stepped forward, raised his head and shouted, "Lord Feng, do you still recognize me?" ”

Feng Kaizhong took a closer look at Xu Lang and felt that he seemed to be a little familiar, but he couldn't remember who it was.

Xu Lang pointed to himself and Gao Chen's military uniforms and said with a smile: "Lord Feng can't recognize me, but do you still recognize this military uniform, we met four years ago." ”

"It's General Xu." Feng Kaizhong finally recognized Xu Lang, and hurriedly shouted, "Open the city gate, open the city gate, everyone is lined up to welcome, our great benefactor is here." ”

The city gate opened, and Feng Kaizhong was the first to run out of it: "General Xu, please forgive this official for being clumsy and failing to recognize the general." ”

"Lord Feng is serious." Xu Lang stepped forward and hugged Feng Kaizhong, "After four years, this official misses Master Feng very much. ”

Feng Kaizhong suddenly remembered that the soldiers seemed to be reporting to the guerrilla general just now, and let go and asked, "General Xu, are you now?" ”

Gao Chen replied on the side: "Lord Xu is a guerrilla general from Sanpin canonized by the imperial court. ”

"The lower official should die, the lower official should die." Feng Kaizhong was about to kneel down as he spoke, "The next officer will see the general." ”

"Lord Feng must not do this." Xu Lang hurriedly supported Feng Kaizhong, "You and I have known each other for a long time, there is no need to judge each other by official positions, how about taking the liberty of being presumptuous, how about respecting you Brother Feng?" ”

"Never." Feng Kaizhong waved his hand again and again, "It's time to break the official." ”

"Brother Feng." Xu Lang took Feng Kaizhong's hand, "Please." ”

"General Xu, please."

Feng Kaizhong did not immediately let Xu Lang into the subordinate office, but took Xu Lang and his party to the ginkgo tree. Next to the big tree, there is a small newly built temple.

Xu Lang was a little flustered: "Isn't this the ancient building of the Ming Dynasty that was fenced off in my own community in later generations." "It's a little different, but it's still visible at a glance.

"General Xu." Feng Kaizhong arched his hand and said, "Four years ago, General Han and you saved the lives of hundreds of people in Fushan, this is a temple built by the people spontaneously for the two of them, and the incense is constantly burning every day. ”

Xu Lang was even more stupid: "This temple was originally built for me by TM, I knew it earlier, I should have brought it back after 400 years, this TM is our family." ”

Gao Chen saw that Xu Lang had not answered, so he pulled the corner of Xu Lang's clothes, and Xu Lang reacted: "Brother Feng and the people are like this, they are ashamed to be under it. ”

"Well deserved, well deserved." Feng Kaizhong stretched out his hand and said, "Please General Xu go in and have a look." ”

Everyone walked around the temple and came to the subordinate office, the banquet had been set up, Feng Kaizhong invited Xu Lang to sit on the seat: "General Xu, coarse tea and light rice, please forgive the general." ”

"Brother Feng is polite." Xu Lang said politely, "Such a feast has made Brother Feng break the bank." ”

"The general has seen the outside, and this meal is not enough for the general's great grace that day."

The two of them were greeting each other, and a soldier walked in from outside: "Lord Qiqi, some people have gathered outside, they heard that General Xu has come to our Qianhu Office, and they will definitely come to express their gratitude in person." ”

"General Xu." Feng Kaizhong pulled Xu Lang up again, "Since the people have this intention, the general should go out and have a look." ”

Xu Lang did not refuse, and followed Feng Kaizhong to the outside of the subordinate office.

There were hundreds of people standing at the door, all carrying all kinds of things in their hands, and some even led a sheep.

Seeing Xu Lang come out, the people knelt on the ground one after another, and kept praising in their mouths: "General Xu, thank you General Xu for his great kindness back then, General Xu's great kindness is unforgettable." ”

"Hurry up, don't be so generous." Xu Lang helped up an old man led by him, and the corners of his eyes were a little moist, "How can I, Xu Lang, be able to accept such a great gift from you." ”

"The general can afford it." The old man handed the basket in his hand to Xu Lang's hand, "If it weren't for the general's charity, the little old man's family would have starved to death." The little old man has nothing to reciprocate, this is the egg laid by his own chicken, sent to the general, and I hope the general will not dislike it. ”

"We'll send it to the general, too." Before Xu Lang could speak, his arms were already full of all kinds of things handed over by the people.

"Ladies and gentlemen, thousands of households in the floating mountains." Xu Lang handed the things to Gao Chen behind him, leaving only the basket of eggs, "You are also a Ming official below, you are all the people of the Ming Dynasty, how can you see death and not save you below." I also know that your life is still very difficult, and your heart is under the order, I only need this basket of eggs, and please take the rest back. ”

"General, please take it." The people shouted, "Please accept the general's intentions." ”

Feng Kaizhong strode forward: "Everyone, since General Xu said it, you better take the things back, and General Xu will know your intentions." This official still has important matters to discuss with General Xu, so please come back. ”

Seeing Feng Kaizhong say this, the people scattered one after another. Xu Lang took out 2 taels of silver from his clothes: "Gao Chen, go and give this bit of silver to the old man who delivered eggs." ”

Feng Kaizhong accompanied Xu Lang back to the subordinate office, the two sides sat down again, Feng Kaizhong raised his glass: "General Xu, I haven't seen the general's dignity for four years, and the lower official respects the general." ”

Xu Lang also picked up his wine glass: "Thank you, Brother Feng, do it." ”

After the two of them drank, Feng Kaizhong put down his glass and asked, "I don't know what the general is doing when he comes to Fushan this time?" ”

"I do have military affairs below, and I need Brother Feng to help me a lot." Xu Lang didn't hide it, "I have now been transferred to Hainan Wei as a guerrilla general. This year, there was a severe drought in Shaanxi and Henan, and the imperial court ordered us to go to Shaanxi and Henan to recruit a group of displaced people to Qiongzhou Mansion to pioneer the land. My family heard that it has been very difficult here in Shandong since Kong Youde's rebellion, so he ordered me to come to Shandong to see if I could recruit some displaced people in Shandong. ”
