The quartermaster asked, "General, if the robbery of the camp really has something to do with him, do you think he will borrow it?" These days, I have been to the city more than once to look for him, but he doesn't even see me, he wants to force us to leave."

Zhang Rake became angry again, "If he doesn't borrow it, tell him, it's okay if you don't borrow, General Ben can lead the troops to borrow it in person, don't be embarrassed"

After Zhang Rake finished speaking, he felt that these words were useless, so he waved his hand and said, "All go out, all go out, let General Ben calm down and go."

"But ......" the generals still wanted to ask him for food. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

"Get out!" Zhang Rake roared directly.

The generals withdrew from the tent in a gloomy manner, and just after the generals retreated, another person came in outside the tent, who was Zhang Razi's cronies and guards.

As soon as Zhang Razi saw that it was him, he said, "Have you heard any movement in the imperial court?" ”

The guards approached and whispered, "Things are not good for the general, there are rumors in Beijing that the emperor has decreed that you will be dismissed from your post and sent back to Beijing to be punished, and even the two thousand households of the Jinyi Guard are here."

Zhang Razi's face immediately changed when he heard this, and he blamed King Ning for being stabbed with a thousand knives, otherwise he would have asked the emperor for his guilt ten days ago, maybe the emperor would not punish him for the sake of offsetting his merits and demerits, and now it is too late.

"When will the decree arrive?" Zhang Rake sat down with a pale face and muttered.

"It's arrived, an hour ago, the father-in-law of the inner official prison Zhou has already entered the Susong County Ya"

Zhang Razi was stunned when he heard this, "The holy decree is not for me?" What is the purpose of going to the county office? ”

"I heard that the holy will conveyed by Gonggong Zhou this time is related to Lu Fei, and my subordinates guessed that the emperor should be promoting him to an official."

'Smack! Zhang Rake took the case, "He was promoted, but I am going to go to prison?" Is the emperor blind? ”

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhang Rake consciously lost his words and listened carefully to the movement outside the tent.

The cronie added, "General, from the perspective of your subordinates, there is still room for remedies in this matter before the holy decree is delivered to you."

Zhang Razi's eyes lit up, he is now the master of the six gods, hearing everything is like a life-saving straw, he has finally achieved today's position in the past ten years, and this time even if he does not die, there is no chance to turn over.

"Oh? How is it? Zhang Rake looked at him expectantly.

"General, you forgot, our Anqing Mansion camp has helped King Ning do a lot of things openly and secretly over the years, why don't you go and beg him, as long as he says a word, what can the holy decree do?"

As soon as Zhang Rake heard that it was a plan, it didn't mean that he didn't say it, if King Ning could help him, could he still wait until now, and he would not be able to trap himself for ten days, and he would not put it back until everything was settled, and beg him, it was hopeless.

Seeing that the general didn't seem to be optimistic, the cronies said, "General, if King Ning can't get through, it's better to do it, it's better to die horizontally and vertically anyway, so it's better not to do it twice."

The cronies made an empty gesture with their hands as they spoke.

"Yikes!" Zhang Rake was taken aback, and was surprised again and again, and whispered, "Killing Qincha is a big crime of the Nine Clans, and it is unavoidable."

The cronies waved their hands, smiled, and said in a suppressed voice, "No, no, general, the subordinates mean to kill Lu Fei"

"Kill him?" Zhang Rake didn't know why, he wanted to kill Lu Fei for not a day or two, as early as the day he first arrived in Susong, Steward Hu spent two thousand taels of silver to buy Lu Fei's life, openly and secretly it was very likely that Zhao Junma meant, but now that Steward Hu was killed by him, Zhao Junma didn't mention it to him at all, he still didn't understand who wanted to kill Lu Fei, but Steward Hu had been killed by him, and it was difficult to figure it out.

The cronies sneered, "Yes, that's right, the war is over, but the rogues are scattered in the county, at this time, if Lu Fei is killed, general, you say, who will the emperor think did it?" ”

Zhang Rake said to himself, "Bandits seeking revenge? ”

The cronies slapped their thighs, "Yes, that's right, and then the general, you will write to the emperor again, saying that Su Song's banditry is more serious than before, and then all the responsibility for this cause will be put on Lu Fei's head, general, you have already laid out a net under the mountain, but Lu Zhixian has to go his own way, and he wants to do a good job, so that the general, you are afraid that the sword and gun will hurt Lu Zhixian without eyes, so you give the bandits a chance to break through, anyway, Lu Zhixian has no proof of death, general, you can say whatever you want."

Zhang Rake thought about it for a while, but it was still inappropriate to think about it again, "But the messenger who passed the decree has already arrived in Susong, even if Lu Fei is dead now, the holy decree will still be passed to me."

Jian Xin smiled, "General, this matter is simple, you can send someone to the city to drag him out for a few days first, and let him pass on the decree a few days later, not to mention, as long as Lu Fei dies and the dragons in Susong County are leaderless, the general can personally lead the army to enter the county in the name of protecting the territory and the people, and at that time, hehe, isn't the general still listening to Zhou Zhou's decree when he wants?" ”

Zhang Razi's face was a little stretched, "Well, your plan is feasible, so if you deal with Jinyiwei, these people only obey the emperor's orders and are loyal to the emperor, so they just sit idly by?" ”

The cronies said, "General, you are really smart and confused for a while, as long as the holy decree is not issued, you are still in power, no matter how powerful Jinyiwei is, he will not dare to attack you, as long as he can stabilize Zhou Gonggong, everything can be solved."

Zhang Rake carefully thought about his words repeatedly, now he is really afraid of wolves and tigers, always feel that everyone wants his life, who can blame him, even if you are a general who has won a hundred battles, and has won a lifetime of victories, as long as you lose once, then the whole world will only remember your defeat, what victory or defeat is a common thing in soldiers, that is all nonsense, there has never been a shortage of people who have fallen into the stone in all dynasties, a defeat is never recovered, and the wall is pushed by everyone, Presumably, some of his opponents in the army are ready to watch him do it now.

Zhang Rake Zi thought of King Ning again, from his Zhang Razi's point of view, King Ning has been restless in and out of the court for more than ten years, and he must be planning a big conspiracy in his heart, and he has not shown it yet, it is likely that he is waiting for the opportunity, and like himself, who was forced by King Ning's Wang Wei to do so many things against the emperor, and now he has what he has got, nothing, just a chess piece in King Ning's hand that can be discarded if he wants to, and there is no need to explain any reason.

King Ning is unreliable, and he has to rely on himself for his own affairs, Zhang Rake made up his mind, as long as he can successfully escape this time, he will completely get rid of King Ning's control and serve the court wholeheartedly.

Zhang Razi thought for a while and muttered, "As soon as Lu Fei dies, King Ning has no hope in Susong, his biggest idea is that he doesn't want Susong to be in chaos, but when the time comes, my army will be stationed in Susong City, and it will be up to me to decide whether there is chaos or not, he can only rely on me again, even if he knows that Lu Fei died at my hands, he will only turn a blind eye."

The cronies chimed in, "Yes, yes, the general is wise, and if you continue to make decisions, you will be in chaos, general, make up your mind."

Zhang Rake raised his head suddenly, and there was a cold killing intent in his eyes, "Okay, just do as you say, it's better to choose a day than to hit the day, Gonggong Zhou came to deliver the decree, Lu Fei was promoted to an official, and he must have a big banquet, so tonight, you pick a few brothers with good skills and touch them to the county office......"

Saying that, Zhang raked his hand.

The cronies smiled and nodded, "The subordinates will go down to make arrangements, general, you just wait for the good news."

In the main hall of Susong County, Lu Fei was respectfully kneeling on the ground and waiting for Gonggong Zhou to read out the holy decree......

Gonggong Zhou slowly unfolded a roll of yellow silk in his hand to both sides, cleared his throat, looked up at Lu Fei and smiled slightly, and read aloud, "Fengtian carries the emperor, and says: ......"

Father-in-law Zhou just made a start, but Lu Fei raised his head and said, "Father-in-law Zhou, you read it wrong, you shouldn't break the sentence like this, it should be the emperor's system, how did you break this?"

Gonggong Zhou's face was dazed, and when the Jinyi Wei on the side saw this, two cold and shining embroidered spring knives had been set on Lu Fei's neck, and the Jinyi Wei was dedicated to maintaining the imperial power to the extreme, and he had never seen anyone dare to defy the holy decree like this.

"Bold, Susong County, you dare to desecrate the holy decree"

In fact, this can only be blamed for Lu Fei's failure to learn history well, and the holy decree begins with 'Fengtian carries the emperor, and the system says' since the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, and has always been read out with this kind of previous kind of broken sentence, but modern people read it smoothly, and it has become the well-known 'Fengtian carrier, the emperor system said'.

Father-in-law Zhou hurriedly came out to relieve the siege, "Two thousand households, calm anger and anger, at the beginning, Long Live Lord once said that he behaved poorly and spoke frivolously, but it is a person with this kind of temperament who can govern Susong County well, you see, two, even Long Live Lord said this, you two, is it ...... Yikes! ”

Lu Fei laughed secretly in his heart, the emperor could say such a thing, but at this time, he saw Gonggong Zhou glaring at him, presumably he made up this nonsense.

"Yes, yes, the two superiors, I just saw that as soon as this holy decree came out, the atmosphere in the hall was not very good, so I wanted to be active, and there was no intention of blaspheming the holy decree, Gonggong Zhou, you continue" Lu Fei slowly removed the two handfuls on the side of his neck, and said with a smile.

The two brocade guards glanced at each other, drew their knives and returned to their waists, still standing aside like living sculptures.

Gonggong Zhou continued to read, "Fengtian carries the emperor, and says: Lu Fei of Susongzhi County has won my hope, and since he took up the post of Susongzhi County, he has been loyal to his duties and honest for the people.

Nian Qing's merits, specially awarded Zhongshun doctor, in order to show the emperor's grace, Qin this, Zhengde 12 years of September 5"

Lu Fei still didn't get up after hearing this, Li Shun hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Congratulations, master, you have been promoted to four levels in a row, it's a great happy event, thank you quickly."

Lu Fei raised his head again and said, "No, Gonggong Zhou, why doesn't there be a single mention of General Zhang in the holy decree, he didn't sabotage my plan to recruit security."

Gonggong Zhou frowned, pouted his teeth and said, "You should thank you first."

"Thank you, Lord Ronne! Long live the Emperor, long live! Lu Fei didn't know if he was shouting like that, anyway, he only knew this.

Li Shun motioned to Lu Fei on the side to raise his hands high, and Gonggong Zhou handed over the holy decree to him steadily, and said with a smile, "Lord Lu, congratulations, you have only been promoted to four levels in a row, which is really the first one since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, and the future is limitless."

Li Shun also smiled, helped Lu Fei to stand up, "I'm going to say hello to the master."

Zhao Ban's first and other general officials also smiled and said, "Congratulations to the master, congratulations to the master."

Only Lu Fei was confused when he heard it, he put the holy decree into his armpit, pulled it aside on Gonggong Zhou's shoulder, and asked in a low voice, "I said father-in-law, how big an official is this Zhongyi doctor?" How big is it? When am I going to work? ”

The two brocade-clothed guards just wanted to accuse Lu Fei of the disrespectful act of holding the holy decree in his armpit, but since the emperor said that this person was kind and strange, they just glanced at each other and did not attack.

Gonggong Zhou was stunned for a moment, then laughed again, pointed at Lu Feile and said, "Lord Lu, test our family, you are testing our family, right?"

Lu Fei really doesn't know, there are not 10,000 but 8,000 official positions in the Tang Dynasty, he hasn't even figured out which officials in the county are in charge of what things until now, and he is curious about the county magistrate who has just been in charge for a month, and he is about to be transferred away before he even has a few times in the lobby, thinking about it is really a little reluctant, but judging from the expression of the big guy, this official is not small, and the promotion is of course a good thing, no matter how big it is.

Lu Fei took out a silver ticket of fifty taels from his arms, stuffed it into Zhou's father-in-law's hand, and smiled, "Father-in-law has come thousands of miles to pass the decree, a small thank you, no respect, accept, accept"

Zhou Gonggong pretended to excuse himself, but he still accepted it, "Yo, Lord Lu is really generous, but our family is disrespectful."

Lu Fei patted the hand on Gonggong Zhou's shoulder and asked in a low voice, "You still have to tell me, what kind of official is this Chinese doctor?" ”

Zhou Gong said fairly, "It seems that Su Song's matter really broke Lu Zhizhi's heart, and even forgot about these, didn't the holy decree say it very clearly, and he was awarded the title of the Central Doctor, which is just a title, not a real job."

Lu Fei was even more puzzled when he heard this, "Then which piece will I manage in the future?" ”

Gonggong Zhou rolled his eyes, "It's not about where it is, it's just to add a title to your original grade, it's an honor to put it mildly, you are now an official of the fifth grade, my Lu Zhixian"

Many people in the hall heard this, Lu Fei looked around at everyone, and saw that everyone was looking at him with joy on their faces, Lu Fei looked at Li Shun again, meaning to ask Father-in-law Zhou Is what he said true, Li Shun smiled and nodded.

Lu Fei pulled Zhou's father-in-law on the shoulder again, "Then am I now the magistrate of the seventh rank or the middle doctor of the fifth grade?" ”

Zhou Gong said fairly, "This hard work, you, are now serving as the magistrate of the county as an official of the fifth grade"

Lu Fei seemed to understand a little, but he still asked curiously, "What is that?" ”

Gonggong Zhou wondered, "It's still the county!" ”

When Lu Fei heard this, he hurriedly kicked back the silver ticket that had just been stuffed into Zhou's father-in-law's hand, and said disdainfully, "What do you mean, I haven't moved my nest for a long time, and the silver will be returned to me."

When it came to the silver in Zhou's father-in-law's hand, how could he slip back lightly, and hurriedly put the silver ticket into his arms, and said with a smile, "Hey, don't mind, listen to our family, your Wupin Zhixian is the first of our Tang Dynasty, which shows that Long Live Lord has high hopes for you, and wants you to have a good experience in the local area, and it also shows that Long Live Lord appreciates your ability, and is afraid that you will be hindered when governing the place, so he will use this method to improve your status, so that you can do things easily, what are you not satisfied with such a good thing?" Our family has traveled thousands of miles to give you this big gift, and you still want to ask for the reward money, you really deduct it."

Lu Fei raised the corners of his mouth and cut off, "This, what is this called, huh...... The name does not live up to the truth, yes, the name does not live up to the truth"

Gonggong Zhou pressed the silver ticket in his arms tightly, and said sarcastically, "You have enough knowledge, do you know how much more money you can earn in a year in this five-grade county than in seven-grade county?" Saying that, Gonggong Zhou stretched out his palm and doubled it in front of Lu Fei, "Ten times, there is still a surplus"

As soon as he heard that the salary had changed so much, Lu Fei was immediately relieved, but he still said, "Although it is a bit unworthy of the name, let me take the mayor's salary and do the work of the county magistrate, yes, that is, I, just be generous, don't care about the emperor, who told us to treat money as dung, and only care about the people's welfare, just be wronged in Susong for a few more years, go back and thank the emperor and their whole family for me."

In feudal imperial China, although there is a fixed pattern of rank and official position, there are exceptions to everything, as long as the emperor is happy, you are a big word of illiterate soil buns can also fly on the branches immediately, who let the imperial power supremacy, the sole ruler of the world.

Gonggong Zhou finally kept the silver ticket, and when he was careful, he put his mind at ease and pointed at Lu Feidao, "You, you, I haven't seen you for a few months, our family almost doesn't know you, this mouth is really bad."

Lu Fei smiled, "Hey, without this mouth, you can't get this five-grade magistrate to do it, hehe, oh yes, why didn't the holy decree mention the matter of Zhang Rake, how did Emperor Laozi treat him?" ”

Gonggong Zhou whispered, "The emperor has another will for General Zhang, so don't ask more."

Lu Fei thought about it, no matter what his will, he was promoted to his own official, can that rake still be good.

Lu Fei took Gonggong Zhou's shoulders and returned to the main hall, and said to everyone with a smile, "Yes, master, I have been promoted to four levels in a row, and you should also be happy together, master, go, send someone to Shouchun Restaurant to book a few tables of banquets for the master, and I will sit in the east, and have fun tonight, ah, haha"

Li Shi nodded yes, "Yes"

Suddenly, Lu Fei seemed to remember something, patted his head, and said, "Hey, my brain, this is something to tell you, the master has been promoted, ah, this and this, there is a way to be a glory, you people, you will all be from Wupinzhi County in the future, this, the matter is a great joy, do you have to express it?"

It was still Li Shun's brain that reacted quickly, and he quickly took the lead and knelt down, and said loudly, "Congratulations to the master for his ascension"

Everyone saw the same, Zhao Bantou, Big Eyes, Heizi and other officials also knelt down busily, shouting congratulations with a smile.

Lu Fei's face was flat, "Get up, don't worry about it, come to something practical, my lord and I are easy to be satisfied, it's enough to send one hundred and eighty taels per person, don't give more"

Everyone was silent when they heard it, and the old man was too good at making money.

Gonggong Zhou shook his head when he heard this, thinking that it was the first time he had seen such a blatant Suoli, and the two brocade guards on the other side were silent, probably thinking in their hearts whether to report this matter to the emperor after returning to Beijing, whether to check this kid, maybe he could find out a big corrupt official.

Seeing that everyone was silent, Lu Fei said again, "Fifty taels, forty-four taels, twenty taels, no less, master, you take the lead."

When Li Shun heard the words, he hurriedly arched his hand, and smiled, "What, master, I'll go to Shouchun Sprinkle Building to book a banquet" After speaking, he fled.

Lu Fei crossed his waist, "Hey, your legs and feet are good, Zhao Bantou, you have a few days with the master, why don't you take the lead and give ......"

Before Lu Fei could finish speaking, Zhao Bantou hurriedly said, "Yo, the time to patrol the streets has come, master, I'll go down first" and turned around and ran away.

As soon as Lu Fei saw that Zhao Bantou had also run away, he didn't give up, so his eyes swept around the crowd again.

The big eyes also saw it at this time, and suddenly slapped the sunspot on the side, "It's broken, sunspot, the thatched house hasn't been washed yet, hurry, let's go"

Kuroko was stunned for a moment, "Thatched house? Oh, yes, yes, yes, yes."

In a blink of an eye, there was nothing to do in the main hall, and all the officials who came to see the excitement of preaching the holy decree found a job, and ran until there was no one left."

Lu Fei pursed his mouth, the gift money was hopeless, and when he was sighing, he happened to see Zhou Gong still standing in place, and walked towards him with a smile.

Father-in-law Zhou covered the silver ticket in his arms and said first, "It's not too early, our family is going back to the post house to rest, say goodbye" While speaking, the person had already run outside the hall.

At this time, only the two brocade guards in the hall were still standing there like two pieces of wood, and Lu Fei wanted to chat with them for a few words, but the two of them finally moved, pressed the embroidered spring knife on their waists, and walked over to Lu Fei with a light snort.

In fact, Lu Fei didn't want to get some money from these people, that is, he suddenly changed from a seven-grade county to a unique five-grade county in the world, and he had to find someone to vent his joy.

Lu Fei was the only one left in the main hall, he shook his head, raised his hand and ran towards the back of the ya, shouting, "Yun Niang, Ling girl, master, I have been promoted"

Zhou Gonggong happily returned to the post house, he didn't run in vain, and there were fifty taels of entry, he pushed open the door beautifully, humming Peking Opera in his mouth, "I am watching the mountain scenery in the city tower, and I can hear the chaos outside the city, chaos, chaos and ......" Just didn't sing a few words, his face changed, frozen.

I saw a person standing in the room, a middle-aged man dressed in a common person's attire.

Gonggong Zhou was startled, turned around and was about to pull the room and run out.

The middle-aged man hurriedly spoke, "Father-in-law Zhou, please stay!" There is no malice under it."

Hearing this person's tone, Gonggong Zhou sighed a little low, and said his identity again, presumably there was no danger, so he closed the door that had been half-opened again, turned around and said, "Who are you?" Why is it here? ”

The middle-aged man hurriedly knelt down, "The young general is a subordinate of General Zhang of the Anqing Mansion Battalion Army, and he came to meet with his father-in-law on the order of the general."

As soon as Gonggong Zhou heard that it was General Zhang's person, he understood seven or eight points in his heart, presumably General Zhang also knew that the holy decree had arrived in Susong, and he came to inquire about it.

Gonggong Zhou sat steadily in the chair and said slowly, "If you have to invite you to enter, you also know how to meet?" Forget it, what's the matter with me? ”
