Under the banner of the Governor of Suppression, they entered the territory of Fujian from Jianning Mansion, and the officials of Fujian Prefecture and County trembled and sent them out of the territory.

If you arrive in any county, it will be late, and the Fengzi camp chooses to rest on the spot, then the local county order must be sleepless all night.

This battalion of men and horses, like a volcano that will erupt at any time, may be killed by thousands of troops and horses at any time.

When the Zodiac Zhou scholars recruited Hou Xuanyan, they made a big splash and became known to everyone in Fujian. As a result, in less than half a month, Hou Xuan's people returned to Fujian with his head, and this group of people was even more arrogant, eager to tell the whole world that we killed the first assistant scholar.

When the world is in turmoil and the society is collapsing, there will be such a grand anecdote, in the usual season of Haiqing Heyan, the first assistant university scholar is the existence of ten thousand people under one person. As a result, Hou Xuanyan's reputation has also become mixed, full of controversy. Some people worship him as a god, worship him as the white jade pillar of the sky, and build the purple gold beam of the sea, which is the hero of the world who saved the situation and the last hope of the Ming Dynasty; Some people regard him as a rebellious minister and thief, who supports his own army and kills ministers at home.

But no matter what kind of person it is, they all know such a thing, Hou Xuanyan's subordinates are very capable of fighting.

Duoduo, who has not tasted defeat and cannot be defeated since entering the customs; Hong Chengchou, who was famous all over the world during the Chongzhen period, died in his hands. Starting from the city of Suzhou, which was surrounded by enemies on all sides, the restoration of Jiangsu and Zhejiang, the recovery of Jinling, the bloody battle of Huguang, and the northern expedition to Yangzhou, each battle was a rare victory after Salhu. If it is in Fujian, the two sides will fight a big fight, and no prefecture or county can withstand it.

The cavalry march in Fujian was not very fast, and ninety percent of the land area here was mountainous and hilly, known as "eight mountains, one water and one field". The mountains are towering, the hills and hills of the Minjiang River are full of river valley basins. The Fengzi battalion slowed down when it entered Fujian, and the group hurried slowly, and finally passed Jianning Mansion and came to Yanping Mansion.

The meandering Min River presents a half-moon shape, guarding the Yanping Mansion along the coast, and the soldiers outside the city gate are like a forest, and a group of men and horses with distinct armor are stopped in front of the Yanping Mansion. The sun sets,

The soldiers of the Fengzi battalion were silent, and their hands reached out to their waists and pressed on the handle of the steel knife. Xia Wanchun stepped forward immediately and said to Hou Xuanyan: "The person stationed in Yanping Mansion should be Zheng Zhilong's son, Zhu Chenggong, who was named by His Majesty. ”

Hou Xuanyan nodded and said, "Continue to move forward, camp in Yanping Mansion tonight, and enter Fuzhou tomorrow." ”

The Fengzi battalion was just about to leave, and a fast horse galloped from the opposite formation: "Wu Yuebo, my young general invites you to Yanping Mansion to rest for a while." ”

Hou Xuanyan said with a smile: "That's what you mean, let's lead the way ahead." ”

After Hong Yixun approached, he said in a low voice: "Big brother, the person who came is not good." ”

Hou Xuanyan laughed, squinted his eyes and said: "Since you choose to enter Fujian, you have to have a mind, the people we meet are all "those who come are not good", and they are more evil than anyone else. ”

Hong Yixun habitually announced: "Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable." Then he sneered: "We haven't lost compared to evil." ”

Entering Yanping Mansion and strolling in the quiet and secluded bamboo forest, Hou Xuanyan was slightly surprised. I didn't expect the famous national surname to "catch the wind" for himself in such an elegant place.

Zhu Chenggong is young, with a Chinese face, and his appearance is quite peaceful, without any edges and corners. This may be more like his mother, you must know that Zheng Zhilong is a tough and rough man. After he saw Hou Xuanyan, he said with a smile: "Wu Yuebo has worked hard all the way, Yanping Mansion and Fuzhou are not far apart, but it is not too early to see the sky, and I can't rush tonight." I made my own decision and asked Wu Yuebo to stay here for one night. ”

Hou Xuanyan saw that he spoke well and behaved elegantly, and said with a smile in his heart: Zheng Zhilong is a rough man, I didn't expect to be able to teach such a son, no wonder the father and son chose very different paths later. You have to be elegant, I just go straight to him, leaving him with the impression that there is no city, so that he thinks that I have come to meet the emperor with courage and loyalty, and maybe I can take advantage of him at a critical time.

Thinking of this, Hou Xuanyan laughed and said, "Since this is the case, then the governor will be bothered, it happens that the army has been marching for so long, and his feet are worn out." Fujian's poor mountains and bad waters, as expected, live up to its reputation, damn it, fighting in so many places, the road here is the most difficult. No wonder His Majesty asked me to come to meet him, how can I keep the royal car in such a place. ”

Zhu Chenggong frowned slightly, and then quickly recovered, except for Hong Yiyun, who was sharp-eyed, no one noticed it. He welcomed Hou Xuanyan to a path, walked dozens of steps, and suddenly opened up in front of him. At the end of the road, in the turquoise pool, the path leads to the pavilion in the middle of the lake. In the pavilion, there were seven maids standing in Tingting, who were pouring wine and dishes, and when they saw the master coming, they withdrew like butterflies wearing flowers.

Hou Xuan played the golden knife of Malaysia, walked to the pavilion, and sat down by himself without being polite. Stretched out his hand to pick up a wine jug, poured two sips, and said, "Da Mu, I am commensurate with your father and brother, and Tuo Da is your elder." I have to say a few words to you, outside Yanping Mansion, your people and horses are strong and strong, why do you want to shrink in Fujian and fish? What time is it now, a seven-year-old child in Jiangyin City knows that he has gone to the city tower to kill the enemy, and we are a twelve-year-old in Jiading, who has already followed my corpse mountain and sea of blood several times. By the way, what's that kid's name? ”

Hong Yixun on the side joked: "Jiangyin's name is Tang Wei, and Jiading's name is Zhang Hao." ”

Zhu Chenggong's face was blue and red for a while, to be honest, he admired Hou Xuanyan's courage from the bottom of his heart this time. That's why I set up a banquet to invite, wanting to get a glimpse of this person's true face. Who is Hou Xuanyan, there are many people, there are too many versions in the market, Zhu Chenggong doesn't believe any of them, he only believes in his own judgment.

But Hou Xuanyan's performance is like a scholar and a scholar, but like those giants in the sea under his own hands. He frowned and said, "What Wu Yuebo said is that I am in Fujian, and I am also here to guard His Majesty. Several times he asked for orders to send troops, but the court did not agree. ”

"That's right, Jin Shenghuan is in Ganzhou, it's like a fish bone stuck in our throat, my soldiers and horses are all dragged by the Qing soldiers, you tell your father, let him send troops to support Ganzhou."

Zhu Chenggong was upset, and he didn't want to stay with him for a moment, so he dealt with it casually. I wanted to test Hou Xuan's performance, but I didn't expect the world-famous little Hou Governor to be such a person.

After a while, Hou Xuanyan and his subordinates, who had already eaten a mouth full of oil, shouted five and six to drink. Zhu Chenggong found an excuse, and left in a hurry, out of sight and out of mind. Anyway, these people themselves don't know how to be polite, so they don't need to be too polite.

Looking at the back of Zhu Chenggong's departure, Hou Xuanyan hooked the corners of his mouth and said with a smile: "Xiao Zheng is young after all, he is full of joy and anger, and compared with his father, he is still a little behind." ”

Xia Wanchun looked puzzled, and said in a low voice: "Why did the commander annoy him? ”

"Hehe, this kid likes to be gentle, and I'm pretending to be vulgar. The credit of my Hou Xuanyan is well known to everyone in the world. It's up to me to laugh at him for not making an inch, and he looks down on my style, which is irrefutable. In this way, it is most likely to arouse his competitive spirit. This person still has a great understanding in his heart. His loyalty, patriotism and competitiveness can save our lives at a critical time. ”
