Chapter Fifty-Eight: Pre-Settlement of the Meeting

With Lu Chongning accompanying him, Li Mi went to Zhang's house this time to cover up, but he didn't dare to sleep at ease that night, thinking about it, he still went to Yuan Keli's side to take a look.

Li Mi also thought like this in his heart, Xiang Mu would definitely come to visit Yuan Keli, maybe he could get this old advice, after all, he had never been to Hangzhou, let alone dealt with the green forest giants.

Sure enough, when he arrived at Yuan Keli's house, he met the old man Xiang Mu who came to visit.

When the old man Xiang Mu saw Li Mi, he straightened his face and said: "Boy, you have done a lot of great things, and you actually injured Liqing like this, if you don't find out the murderer and beat the old man, the old man can't spare you!" ”

Li Mi also smiled bitterly, so he had to be aggrieved: "Brother, don't complain, this time my little brother went to Hangzhou, isn't it just to catch this despicable villain..."

When Xiang Mu heard this, his face turned slightly pale, and he said to Li Mi: "This is about the same, I don't want you to hand it over to the government to deal with it, put that person in the car, and crash into Liqing, which can be regarded as a report and a report." ”

Li Mi couldn't help but wonder, if it was really done by a woman like Xie Yingluo, could he really do it?

However, the old man Xiang Mu is used to being a maverick, and it is not the first time that he has spoken amazingly, and Li Mi can only accept it.

Yuan Keli next to him couldn't look past it, and said to Xiang Mu: "Okay, you don't have to gag here, I still have to explain some serious things to him." ”

Xiang Mu pursed his lips and said dissatisfiedly: "Could it be that what the old man said is not the right thing?" Since your kid is going to Hangzhou, I will stop by to meet Shi Chongsheng's old man, and ask him why he wants to get involved with these indiscreet people, and see how this old man will respond to you! ”

Li Mi couldn't help but smile bitterly, and said in his heart that you have something to do with Shi Chongsheng, and you want to involve the juniors.

However, Li Mi has seen the mystery of the thirty-six dragon coffins with his own eyes, and if he can really get to know a master like Shi Chongsheng, it will not be in vain for Hangzhou and his party, so he immediately responded.

Xiang Mu handed over a small box to Li Mi and told him: "Come and don't be rude, Shi Lao'er got a dragon coffin to make it difficult for him, and this time the old man also gave him a debut problem, I don't believe that this old man can solve it, and then he will not come to Suzhou to find me?" Hum! ”

Li Mi couldn't help but suddenly feel that this old man wanted to fish Shi Chongsheng to Suzhou!

"Brother, what did you do when you brought Shi Chongsheng to Suzhou?"

Xiang Mu didn't hide it, raised his head slightly, and replied proudly: "That old man has mixed up the name of a great master of the instrument maker in Hangzhou, and people say that he is the great sage of the Mo family, you can't touch him in Hangzhou, but if you go to Suzhou, it will be the old man's territory!" ”

Li Mi saw the sinister smile on Xiang Mu's face, and he was also a little helpless, although he had never met, but these two old men were only afraid that they would often be angry in the air, but they were also very interesting.

Seeing this, Yuan Keli said on the side: "Okay, okay, Li Mi is about to leave tomorrow, you old man is rambling." ”

Before Li Mi could speak, Xiang Mu couldn't sit still again, and said to Yuan Keli: "Look at this car crashed, even you are old and young, the old man is older than you, you can pay attention to what you say!" ”

Yuan Keli couldn't cry or laugh, he didn't bother to pay attention to this old man, took out a letter, and handed it to Li Mi.

"Li Mi, although Chen Heguang has already started to act, but this person is feminine and casual, Wang Mude is stubborn and self-serving, they are not people who can be trusted, and they are not enough to succeed.

Li Mi listened to him seriously and listened carefully, but Xiang Mu next to him glanced at him and teased him.

"They have all been deposed to the people, and their mouths are still so unsealed, these characters in the officialdom are useless, and you Yuan Keli are the most useful in the whole world? What is your identity now, and the safety of hundreds of thousands of people still needs you to worry about? Are you the Lord of the City God or the grandfather of Mazu? ”

Yuan Keli didn't joke anymore this time, but replied with a serious face: "What does caring for the people have to do with whether you are an official or not?" If we can really save the people along the coast, even if it is just one person, won't we also be equally powerful? ”

Xiang Mu also knew that he was joking, and at this time he also blushed and said, "The old man just said that, what are you doing so seriously!" ”

Yuan Keli also smiled and said: "Last time, Jinshan raised money to repair the sea, didn't you also give a lot of money, don't be so careless." ”

Xiang Mu became angry again: "Speaking of this, I'm angry, the old man's money is used to repair the sea and defend against the Japanese devils, who knows that it all fell into the pockets of corrupt officials and corrupt officials!" ”

"If you weren't so rigid, you could still catch pests in the officialdom and wipe out all those corrupt officials and corrupt officials, so why did you wronged the old man with so much money to save the people!"

Li Mi listened quietly on the side, and could see that Xiang Mu was very indignant about Yuan Keli being degraded, and Yuan Keli still had nostalgia for officialdom, and now he was in the prime of life, but he could only be idle at home, and his heart was actually depressed, no wonder he wanted to actively participate in this matter, but he didn't want to let himself slack off, so as not to be decadent from now on.

Yuan Keli didn't seem to want to dwell on this topic, and when he heard this, he waved his hand and stopped the project.

"Okay, don't make it look like a resentful woman, I still have to talk to Li Mi about business!"

Xiang Mu stopped talking, and Yuan Keli then said to Li Mi.

"The journey to Hangzhou this time is not short, for the sake of safety, it is better to take the official road, you also have Zhu Ticket and Guan Fang, when you pass by Jiaxing Mansion, you will go to Hainingwei, meet Wu Weizhong, read this letter to him, he will understand."

"Wu Weizhong?" Li Mi couldn't help but be a little puzzled and a little surprised.

Because the Ming military system is relatively simple, the general army is regarded as the number one in the military, and there is a deputy general under the general army, also called the deputy general, and the deputy general is the general.

The generals are stationed in various places, and they are the military attaches of the three grades, and the generals and the thousands of generals below all have the right to command the army, and the authority of a general can be imagined.

As mentioned earlier, the center of power in the local area is the three divisions, among which the military is managed by the metropolitan commander and envoy, also known as the metropolitan division, and there are official positions such as the metropolitan commander, the commander of the Tongzhi and the servant.

These are all permanent official positions, and they have the post of rational soldiers, but they do not have the power to command and transfer troops, and in wartime, they still need the general army and staff generals to transfer and dispatch troops.

The general is already a very high general, which is what surprised Li Mi, and the reason why Li Mi was puzzled was because Yuan Keli was a civil official, and the highest official position was only the patrol of Shanxi Province.

No matter which dynasty or generation, the civil and military officials will not deal with it very well, and the imperial court will deliberately let the civil and military officials stand on the opposite side.

Because civil officials have brains and military generals have fists, if civil and military officials are united, it is not a good thing to centralize power in the imperial court, so whether it is from the system or from the personnel, they deliberately create an atmosphere of civil and military antagonism.

In such an environment, Yuan Keli actually knew such a military boss, which is a little puzzling!

Seeing Li Mi's surprised expression, Yuan Keli didn't explain much, but Xiang Mu snickered on the side.

"Boy, don't underestimate Liqing, he has a lot of secrets, otherwise why would the court depose him to the people?"

Yuan Keli also smiled, pointed at Xiang Mu and said, "You can eat indiscriminately, you can't talk nonsense!" ”

Xiang Mu was reminded by Yuan Keli like this, and he really became honest, and Yuan Keli said to Li Mi.

"This Wu Weizhong is a military general, but he is good at reading history books and the art of war, when I was studying in the early years, I accidentally got a unique book of the art of war, and I gave it to him because of fate, and it is because of this that there is this friendship..."

"Brother Ru Cheng is General Qi's protΓ©gΓ©, and he has won the essence of the Qi family's army's art of war.

"Chen Heguang and Wang Mude and others are not of great use, you and hand over the letter to General Wu, everything can be explained to him in detail, if there is really not enough success here, Hainingwei and Jin Shanwei can also help..."

When Li Mi heard the three words of General Qi, he couldn't help but feel shocked, this famous anti-Japanese general can be called a national hero, Li Mi is a descendant, and he can't be admired, but it's a pity that he crossed decades late, otherwise he would want to follow Qi Jiguang to fight the Japanese invaders!

Thinking of this, Li Mi was a little enthusiastic, and immediately nodded and said: "Brother Yuan, don't worry, the younger brother admires Qi Yingying the most, and since he is Qi Yingying's apprentice, the younger brother will definitely go to Haosheng to pay respects!" ”

Yuan Keli also smiled and pointed at Li Midao.

"I've known you for so long, you haven't even called me big brother, and now when you mention General Qi and General Wu, you change your name to big brother, which is a bit snobbish..."

Li Mi also smiled embarrassedly, and hurriedly explained: "Big brother can wronged me, I didn't call me big brother earlier, that is, so as not to think that the big brother has another plan, and now the big brother has recognized me as a person, let's investigate the case together, we have a lot of experience, and we are in danger together, although I dare not say that we live and die together, it is also a common weal and tribulation, even if you have a fateful friendship, you will not be seen if you call your big brother." ”

Li Mi said frankly and sincerely, and Yuan Keli was also quite tempted, patted Li Mi on the shoulder and said, "Okay!" Yuan has actually recognized you as a brother a long time ago, and this time you can get your mouth, when you come back from Hangzhou, we will worship heaven and earth! ”

Li Mi heard the words worship heaven and earth, and couldn't help but think of the scene of getting married, but didn't Jin Lan also worship heaven and earth in ancient times, and he smiled when he thought about it.

Xiang Mu next to him couldn't sit still, and complained to Yuan Keli: "You are not kind, the old man has recognized you for so many years, and I haven't seen you like this, if you want to worship heaven and earth, you have to call me, otherwise I won't be able to spare you!" ”

Yuan Keli glanced at him and said to Xiang Mu: "The righteous knot Jinlan is a naughty thing created by the young man's blood and temperament, you old man comes to participate in it blindly, and spend your money honestly!" ”

Xiang Mu suddenly blew his beard and glared, but Li Mi couldn't help laughing on the side, the three of them looked at each other, and then laughed.

Despite this, Xiang Mu still sent Li Mi out of the door for Yuan Keli, called Chang Sui, and handed over a gold silk bag to Li Mi.

"Earlier, the maritime merchant kept sending these golden silk smokers, and the horizontal and vertical tobacco sticks were given to you, and the tobacco leaves were smoked in the future, so come to me to get them."

Li Mi couldn't help but feel warm in his heart, but he complained jokingly: "Brother, wouldn't it be better for you to give it all at once, save trouble..."

Xiang Mu feigned anger and said: "My old man has a lot of fun on weekdays, and he gave it all to you, will you often come to see me in the future?" ”

Li Mi pretended to think about it seriously, and then nodded: "Well, it really won't, hahaha!" ”

Xiang Mu also laughed, kicked Li Mi and said, "Get out of here, a white-eyed wolf like Yuan Keli!" ”
