“…… Three virtuous nephews, the old man relies on the old man to sell the old man, you don't have to have any worries, no matter how deep the festival between you and our Zhennan King is, can it be deeper than the original Yang Wending Yang Lao and our Zhennan Wang's family? Elder Yang first connived at his student Yuan Zubi to embarrass our Zhennan Wang's grandfather, Elder Wu, and then personally folded the bullet to impeach Elder Wu, almost missing the life of our Zhennan Wang's family, and then caused the Zhennan Wang's family to form a feud with your Changshu Weng family, this grudge is not smaller than the grudge between you and the Zhennan Wang's family, right? ”

"But then? Didn't they meet each other and laugh at each other? Mr. Yang was unfortunately exiled by the imperial court, and the king of Zhennan neither fell into the well, nor did he break his promise, first abided by the marriage contract and married Mr. Yang's granddaughter as the princess, and then spared no effort to rescue Mr. Yang, help Mr. Yang to make a comeback in the officialdom, and return to the high position of the governor of Sichuan. Don't you imagine that the three virtuous nephews are like Lord Yang, turning enemies into friends and fighting with our Zhennan King? ”

“…… Tong Xianxian's nephew, you still misunderstand our King Zhennan too much, he raised troops not to rebel and rebel, he wanted to be the emperor, but to rebel against King Qin, and kill the rebellious party in the capital led by Yixun! Maintain the ancestral training that my harem of the Qing Dynasty must not interfere in politics! Please think about it, Yi Xun and Wen Xiang, a gang of chaotic ministers and thieves, violated the edict of the previous emperor, conspired to seize power, changed the name of the previous year without authorization, and killed the ministers left by the former emperor, and injured the coffin of the former emperor. The king of Zhennan held high the banner of righteousness and set things right, what was wrong? ”

"Those ill-intentioned despicable villains said that our King Zhennan raised troops because he wanted to be the emperor himself, but now that the capital has been taken by the King of Zhennan, has our King Zhennan been called the emperor? Did you live in the Forbidden City? Is it still Emperor Qixiang, who was coerced to the northeast by the chaotic party, as the king? Isn't this ironclad proof that the king of Zhennan is loyal to the emperor of the Qing Dynasty?! ”

“…… Jingzhou slaughtered the city, that was the rebellion of Jingzhou, at that time, if it was not for the rebel army soldiers under the command of the king of Zhennan to protect it, the eight banners of Jingzhou City would have been killed a long time ago, if the king of Zhennan and the rebel army of Huguang really killed innocent flag people, then Sichuan's Youfeng and military gates, Henan's Chongshi Chong's general soldiers, as well as Duxing'a, Duolong'a and Changqing, these banners are humane and martial, why do they choose to submit to our Zhennan king, they don't want their lives? In addition, you can also clearly tell the three virtuous nephews that Changxiantai in Shaanxi and Gansu is also negotiating with our Zhennan King to surrender, and the Qing Dynasty will be unified in the hands of our Zhennan King, which is only a matter of time sooner or later. ”

“…… Three virtuous nephews, those who follow the heavens survive, and those who go against the heavens die, this sentence was said by Meng Shengren, presumably you must also keep it in mind, now the opportunity of the King of Zhennan is given to you, and he is also determined to treat you like Boss Yang, what difficulties do you have, although you can say to the old man, the king of Zhennan also made it very clear when he asked Han Yugong to come forward to appease you, as long as your requirements are reasonable, he will definitely meet them! ”

“…… Three virtuous nephews, seize this opportunity, don't let the king of Zhennan and Han Yugong disappoint, let alone let Yingzhou and Lu'an's Li Shu Cangsheng disappointed, they are now looking forward to the army of the king of Zhennan to enter the rebellion, just like the baby's parents, the second Ming Gong loved the people like a son all his life, the three virtuous nephews led the soldiers and civilians of the two provinces to return to the king of Zhennan, and joined the rebellion and rebellion army under the command of the king of Zhennan, and also peace and tranquility in the people of the second house, but also to the two Ming Gong filial piety, but also to the emperor and the court to be loyal to the emperor. ”

Wu Junmi, who was over sixty years old, made Xia Xie first rely on the old and sell the old, and then his tongue was like a spring, his tongue was like a lotus, moving with affection, and knowing with reason, and he only persuaded the Weng brothers to return to obedience, and the three brothers of the Weng family were shy to reply in a whisper, making each other's eyes quietly push, and they all wanted to take off their pants and follow Xia Xie, but no one wanted to open this mouth and bow their heads first. Fortunately, Xia Xie, a famous Confucian scholar, understood their difficulties and understood their hardships, so he proposed: "Three virtuous nephews, if you really can't make up your mind, then why don't you ask for a hexagram in front of the spirit of Erming Gong, and ask Erminggong's spirit in the sky to decide for you?" ”

As soon as they heard that they could push the black cauldron of the traitor to the enemy to the dead ghost father, of course the three brothers of the Weng family applauded together, and immediately followed Xia Xie to the mourning hall again, kowtowed to Weng Xincun's spiritual position and prayed, asking Weng Xincun's spirit in the sky to choose whether to surrender to the enemy Wu Chaoyue for them. The result is also okay, it may be that Weng Xincun is blessed by the spirit in order not to cut off his children and grandsons, and the three brothers of the Weng family really asked for a good luck hexagram in front of Weng Xincun's spiritual position without doing anything - this also saves Xia Xie the tongue of another explanation of the evil hexagram.

"Hexagram? Good luck?! Father, you are always telling the children to submit to the king of Zhennan! Father! ”

"Ji Ligong, since this is my father's inspiration in the spirit of heaven, then our brother can't be unfilial, and please ask Ji Ligong to report to Han Yugong as soon as possible, and ask Han Yugong to go to the king of Zhennan to ask our brother to plead on his behalf, and ask the king of Zhennan to make arrangements as soon as possible and send troops to Yingzhou to accept our brother's surrender."

After hugging his head and crying in front of Weng Xinling, the three brothers of the Weng family, who had shirked their responsibility and infamy, no longer had any psychological burden, and immediately knelt down in front of Xia Xie to take off their pants, crying bitterly and expressing their willingness to surrender, and Xia Xie, who had successfully chosen a great merit for nothing, also burst into tears, and picked up the Weng brothers one by one.

The matter was not over, and after the embarrassed answer finally came from Wu Jun, the Weng brothers immediately thought of how to make meritorious service in front of Wu Chaoyue and receive rewards, and immediately sold Yang Chaofu, who was sent by Shi Dakai to surrender, and expressed his willingness to tie up Yang Chaofu and send it to Hubei to present to Wu Chaoyue to show his loyalty. However, Xia Xie suddenly had an idea, and hurriedly asked: "Three virtuous nephews, the old man came to Yingzhou on behalf of the king of Zhennan, does the envoy of Changmao know about it?" ”

"Nope."

The brothers of the Weng family shook their heads together, and they all said that they didn't tell Yang Chaofu about this, but Xia Xie was not at ease, and asked again: "Three virtuous nephews, can you confirm this?" Will Longhair know through other channels that the old man is coming to contact you on behalf of the King of Zhennan? ”

"Uncle rest assured, it is impossible to know." Weng Tongshu said confidently: "The long-haired envoy only brought two followers, and he has been stared at by his little nephew all the time. And even if Long Hair has other fine works in Fuyang City, it is impossible to know about the affairs of the little nephew's house! ”

"Great!" Xia Xie rubbed his hands excitedly, and hurriedly said: "Three virtuous nephews, are you willing to temporarily bear the infamy, pretend to borrow the road to the long-haired twist bandits, and then dispatch your army to join forces with our Huguang rebel army to set up an ambush and ambush the long-haired twist bandits who are trying to break into Hubei?" If it can succeed, it will be a great achievement, and it is also a great opportunity to eliminate the hidden dangers in northern Anhui! ”

To be able to kill the five banners of the Twisted Army that has plagued Huibei for many years, and to be rewarded for meritorious service in front of Wu Chaoyue, of course, the Weng brothers couldn't ask for it, and agreed to it, but after agreeing, Weng Tongshu said with some embarrassment: "Uncle, the little nephews are outnumbered, the soldiers are in arrears for several months, and the morale is not very high. ”

"This is natural." Xia Xie didn't think about it and said: "Three virtuous nephews, you only need to make a fool of yourself with the long-haired secret snake now, and buy a few days for the old man, and the old man will write a letter directly to Shen Youdan, report the situation to him, ask him to show the king of Zhennan, and then ask the king of Zhennan to make a decision himself." ”

Weng Tongshu immediately agreed again, and then said worriedly: "Uncle, will it be too late?" Let's not say that this place is far away from the Hubei provincial capital, and it is inconvenient for you to contact Han Yugong, even if you can use a fast horse to quickly send the news to the Hubei provincial capital day and night, I heard that the king of Zhennan is also in Jiujiang, and Han Yugong also can't contact the king of Zhennan immediately? ”

Xia Xie laughed loudly and said: "The three virtuous nephews can rest assured, we don't need to let the messenger work hard back and forth, we just need to send a fast horse to send the news to Macheng, and then it will take a day at most for Macheng to send the old man's letter to Daye, and then within a maximum of an hour, Shen Youdan will be able to receive the old man's letter, and then transfer the old man's letter to Jiujiang and present it to the king of Zhennan." ”

"Within an hour, send the news from Daye to the Hubei provincial capital, and from the Hubei provincial capital to Jiujiang?" The three brothers of the Weng family were stunned together, and exclaimed, "The messenger of the King of Zhennan can fly, can it be so fast?" ”

"Faster than flying." Xia Xie smiled, proudly took out a pocket watch, and said: "King Zhennan once said personally that his current messenger can travel 600,000 miles in a second, and you will be able to see and use such a messenger one day if you submit to Queen Zhennan." ”

If it weren't for knowing that Xia Xie was not a person who liked to talk nonsense, the Weng brothers would never have Xia Xie's nonsense, but it was precisely because they knew that Xia Xie's prestige and conduct made the Weng brothers even more incredulous, and at the end Weng Tongshu also said, "If there is such an opportunity, the little nephew must see it." ”

…………

In order to ensure that Xia Xie's letter could be sent to Macheng as soon as possible, the Weng brothers, who had a bit of cavalry in their hands, of course sent the best war horses and knights to help Xia Xie's entourage deliver the letter, and the luck of Xia Xie and the Weng brothers was not bad, and the messengers they sent were not intercepted by the Twist Army when they passed through the Guangzhou Mansion where the Wu army, the Qing army and the Twist army were intertwined, and it only took a little more than a day to send the letter to Macheng. And because of the need to guard against the Twist Army and the Qing Army, the Wu Army Post Station between Macheng and Daye was also extremely efficient, and it took less than a day to send Xia Xie's letter to Daye, and then sent it to Hubei Provincial Capital at the first time by telegram, and then knew that the opportunity was coming, Zhao Liewen and Shen Baozhen and others did not dare to slack off, and quickly sent the telegram to Jiujiang, reporting to Wu Chaoyue and asking for instructions.

Coincidentally, when Xia Xie's telegram arrived in front of Wu Chaoyue, it happened that the news of Feng Sanbao's lone advance was also sent back to Jiujiang through the boat and boat, and it was sent to Wu Chaoyue first, and the result was very natural, Wu Chaoyue, who saw at a glance that Feng Sanbao's move was a stinky move, was of course furious, and he slapped the table rarely, and roared: "Greed for merit!" Hu Lai! Is my father-in-law stupid this time or is his head in water? Does his army have the strength to take down Jiangning City, which is heavily guarded by long-haired heavy soldiers, does he have no bottom in his heart? ”

"General Feng is a little greedy this time, but his intentions are still good." Dai Wenjie persuaded and said: "He also wants to put pressure on Changmao as soon as possible, forcing Hong Xiuquan to transfer back to the main force of Changmao besieging Shanghai, and reduce the pressure on Shanghai." ”

"It's counterproductive! Waste of time! Wu Chaoyue said angrily: "If he chooses to join forces with Cao Yanzhong to fight Wuwei Taiping Mansion, as long as he wins two cities, Jiangning Changmao has no danger to defend in the upper reaches of the Yangtze River, and there are no troops available, so he can only quickly transfer Li Xiucheng's long-haired force back to Jiangning to save his life!" Now it's okay, Cao Yanzhong's troops and horses have to fight two cities at the same time, which is a waste of time, his army can't advance outside Jiangning City, and can't retreat, it's a waste of time, vacant troops, and demoralization! ”

Knowing that Feng Sanbao had indeed made a bad move this time, Dai Wenjie didn't want to say anything too much, but fortunately, Xia Xie's telegram arrived at this time, for the sake of Wu Chaoyue's mood, Dai Wenjie naturally hurried to present the good news of the report to Wu Chaoyue. The result was not as expected by Dai Wenjie, Wu Chaoyue was really overjoyed when he saw the telegram, and said happily: "This Uncle Shen's staff named Xia Xie is good, the method is feasible, it just so happens that our Guangzhou Mansion has Shubao and these infantry cavalry troops to mobilize, as long as the Weng family brothers are truly obedient to us, we have hope to come to Yingzhou Mansion for a while, and it is not hopeless to directly kill Zhang Lexing's main force." ”

"King Zhennan rest assured, the students think that the surrender of the Weng brothers should be true." Dai Wenjie analyzed and pointed out: "Otherwise, they would not have taken the initiative to explain to Xia Li about Shi Dakai's envoy to contact them, and inspired Xia Li to come up with the idea of letting them borrow the road to arrange an ambush for the long-haired bandits." ”

Wu Chaoyue nodded thoughtfully, and suddenly his heart moved, and he said in surprise: "Shi Dakai, that long-haired envoy contacted the Weng family brothers?" Ask for a way to borrow and try to surrender by the way? How did he come up with the idea to do this? ”

"It's not surprising, a typical Wei Wei rescues Zhao. If Shi Dakai can help the bandits borrow the road from the Weng brothers, and help the bandits Wuqi bypass our Gwangju defense line and enter Hubei, our rear will be in an emergency, and Changmao's side will be much easier. ”

Dai Wenjie saw Shi Dakai's purpose at a glance, and said with a smile: "It's a pity that Shi Dakai really underestimated the Weng family brothers, Changshu Weng family has the most important reputation, if the Weng family brothers dare to borrow the road to the long-haired twist bandits, or even secretly collude with the long-haired twist bandits, as long as the slightest rumor is leaked, the Weng brothers will immediately have to be discredited and become known." The Weng brothers are not stupid, it is impossible not to see this. ”

Wu Chaoyue didn't speak, just put his hands on his cheeks and calculated, and after a long time, Wu Chaoyue suddenly came out with a clueless sentence and said: "Kill two birds with one stone, this time there is a way to turn Feng Sanbao's stinky move into a wonderful move." ”

"King Zhennan, what did you say? Why can't students understand? Devon asked in surprise.

Wu Chaoyue didn't answer immediately, and after thinking about it for a while, Wu Chaoyue gritted his teeth and said something even more clueless, saying: "Anyway, Shi Dakai's long hair won't surrender to me, just kill three birds with one stone, and let Hong Xiuquan help me kill him!" ”

Familiar with Wu Chaoyue's bad behavior, and seeing the cold expression on Wu Chaoyue's thin face, Dai Wenjie suddenly understood in his heart that Shi Dakai was already dead this time.
