Chapter Eighty-Eight: Lobbying

After Cheng Xiaolian came down the mountain, he glanced at Wang Bo, who was not angry, and smiled bitterly: "Why should Brother Wang be like those people?" ”

Wang Bo snorted: "Aren't you angry? Speaking of this, there was a look of doubt in his eyes: "Brother Cheng, don't blame my brother for speaking badly, why do I think you have another purpose?" ”

Cheng Xiaolian nodded: "I do have some ulterior motives, but it doesn't hurt to tell you, I was originally a descendant of the former Ming Dynasty military generals, and my ancestors died in Myanmar, so I always want to take revenge in the past, and now that I have such a good opportunity, of course I can't give it up." ”

Wang Bo shook his head: "Don't blame my brother for hitting you, your idea is a little naΓ―ve and ridiculous, even if we really enter Myanmar, with these bandits, let alone revenge, it is estimated that they will have to die somewhere." ”

Cheng Xiaolian laughed: "When Brother Wang avenged Ling Zun, did you ever consider whether he could survive?" ”

Wang Bo smiled bitterly and sighed: "It makes sense, but unfortunately, I won't be with you, I still have many brothers under me, and they also have families to support." ”

Cheng Xiaolian nodded: "I didn't think about lying to you when I told you about this, you stayed in the mountain, at least it can make me feel that the mountain is not so bad." ”

While the two were talking, they came to the mountain pass, who knew that two women suddenly walked down the mountain and blocked the way: "You kid still dare to come to us?" ”

Cheng Xiaolian saw that it was the women from Fengge, but these two girls couldn't name themselves, so he laughed: "Two, we don't want to go to your mountain, we just want to go out of the mountain to do some things." ”

"What about the fool, the outside is already surrounded by officials and soldiers, can you get out?"

"We are the representatives of the bandits sent from the mountain, and we want to negotiate peace with the officials and soldiers, after all, it will not benefit anyone if this continues."

"Hehe, I guess the people on the mountain don't like you and want to send you to the officials and soldiers to slaughter you, right?"

"This sister doesn't dare to talk nonsense, I wonder if you can be okay on the mountain?"

"Hmph, you want to ask Xiao Qi, she was grounded by her master and was not allowed to leave the house."

"If you can come back alive today, you must have someone bring some food to the mountain."

The two girls pouted: "You still have some conscience, but Xiao Qi's idea, you don't want to fight, our people in Fengge haven't been able to marry alive." After saying that, the two girls turned around and walked towards the mountain without looking back.

Wang Bo was confused: "I don't know when these strange women came to this mountain, it seems that you are very familiar with them." ”

"Where can I be considered very familiar, don't you see that they are all beating and killing me, these women are all people in the rivers and lakes, if you can, you won't mess with it."

Yang Youcai glanced at Cheng Xiaolian: "Big boss, it's not too early, let's hurry up." ”

When Wang Bo heard this, he was embarrassed to ask any further, and followed him down the mountain.

Before they could get out of a mile, a team of officers and soldiers blocked their way: "Yohe, there are really bandits who are not afraid of death, and they came here to die?" ”

Cheng Xiaolian bowed his hand: "In the next Cheng Xiaolian, this time I came to discuss with the officials and soldiers, can you sit down and talk, after all, it is not a long-term solution for you to besiege the mountain like this, and the brothers on the mountain are also dying of hunger." As he spoke, he quietly shoved a silver ingot.

Anyway, this is all taken in a wooden box, and there is no need to feel distressed, and the soldier immediately showed a smile: "Wait, I'll go back to my lord, you are not allowed to run around, otherwise the brothers' knives and guns will not be long-sighted!" ”

After saying that, he left here with a smile, ran to the camp to report to his boss, and the silver in his hand was turned upside down, and it was not a problem to go back and buy a cow for the family, and he was happy to think of this.

After carrying the money, he entered the tent: "My lord, there is a thief envoy outside, who asks to see you. ”

Although it was Wu Sangui's generals who led the troops this time, it was the local prefect who was in charge, and Wu Sangui relied on them to contribute, so this face was still given to him.

The prefect's name is Gao Mengdan, he glanced at his subordinates with happy faces, and snorted coldly: "Is this kind of thing worth retributing?" Drag those bandits out and behead them! ”

The soldier's face was aggrieved, and before he could turn around, a master had already stood up: "My lord, can you listen to the words of the lower official?" ”

Gao Mengdan glanced at him: "Suide has something to say, just say it." ”

"My lord, there are only 1,000 people under our hands, and they are all government soldiers, but I heard that there are no less than 10,000 people on the mountain. If we fight hard, there will inevitably be a lot of losses, and it is not easy for adults to speak in front of the generalissimo. ”

Gao Mengdan was stunned for a moment: "What do you mean?" ”

"It's better for us to use a knife to kill people, divide them, and then let them kill each other, when the time comes, none of the thieves who killed Miss Cousin will be able to escape!"

Gao Mengdan nodded: "You still have a point, come on, bring those thieves in!" ”

The little soldier listened from the sidelines, not daring to speak, but finally finished his errand, let out a sigh, and ran outside: "Hey, you guys, come here!" ”

Cheng Xiaolian walked closer: "Master Jun." ”

"Hmph, I said a lot of good things for you inside, and the prefect scolded me for letting you in."

Of course, Cheng Xiaolian knew what he meant, and immediately took out a silver ingot from his sleeve: "The military master is hard. ”

The man touched the silver: "It's okay for you to be interested, come with me, remember, the adults have a bad impression of you bandits, don't make the adults angry after you go in." ”

This little soldier finally didn't collect the money in vain, and he still remembered the two words of advice, Cheng Xiaolian hurriedly nodded and said: "Don't worry, the military master." ”

Of course, not everyone can enter the prefect's tent, Yang Youcai and they were left outside, but Cheng Xiaolian and Wang Bo were allowed to go in.

Entering the camp, Cheng Xiaolian and Wang Bo knelt on the ground: "The sinners have seen the prefect. ”

Gao Mengdan snorted coldly: "Do you still know that you are sinners? Lang Lang Qiankun, in the prosperous age, why do you want to fall into the grass as a thief? ”

Cheng Xiaolian hurriedly responded: "Sinners don't want to be thieves, but they are born thieves, and their identities are difficult to change." ”

Hearing this, Gao Mengdan's face softened a lot: "It turned out that the ancestors created the evil, and I can't blame you, I don't know what happened when you went down the mountain this time?" ”

"Knowing that the prefect's relatives were killed, our brothers on the mountain were indignant and wanted to help the prefect avenge their hatred, but we don't know which brother acted recklessly, not only killed the gang of thieves, but also threw the corpses down the mountain, and we had no choice but to ask the prefect for extrajudicial mercy."

Gao Mengdan snorted coldly: "You can't treat this prefect as a three-year-old doll?" ”
