Menzi was bored and ran to the back hall, "Young master, Lu Zhixian is visiting"

Yunxiao didn't go far, as soon as she heard that Lu Zhixian was coming, she stopped immediately, didn't turn around, was stunned for a moment, and then walked towards the gate. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

Zhao Junma waved his hand impatiently, "Serve tea in the front hall, invite him in"

Steward Hu hurriedly put away the account books and followed the young master to the front hall.

Yunxiao walked out of the gate of Zhao's mansion, and there was a small sedan chair parked under the stone steps in front of the door, Lu Fei squinted and sat on the sedan chair, and Heizi kept fanning the wind on the side with a fan.

Yunxiao walked down the steps, and Kuroko also stopped the operation in his hand, he didn't know Yunxiao, but Kuroko is also a person who has seen the world, such a noble woman came out of this door, and the eight achievements are the county lord, Heizi smiled at the county lord and owed a debt, stabbed Lu Fei with his hand, and said softly, "Adult, adult, the county lord is here"

Lu Fei is looking forward to whether he can see the beautiful woman in the deep house when he comes to Zhao Mansion this time, the last time he was at the banquet, the county lord's every move made him unforgettable for a long time, he sympathized with this woman, no matter how noble her identity was, she was always just a woman, and she would inevitably have to experience the seven emotions and six desires of people, when a woman loses the pleasure of enjoying a woman, this kind of injury is really not acceptable to ordinary people, and there is no way to complain to others, all the unhappiness can only be hidden in the heart, over time, If she doesn't go crazy, sooner or later she will become a complaining woman.

Hearing this, Lu Fei hurriedly stood up, searched around with wide eyes, but saw that the county lord's deep eyes were staring at him on the edge of the sedan chair, with no expression on his face.

"County Lord, you" Lu Fei was very surprised, and said that the county lord rarely goes out, why would he meet him at the door, it was so fateful, and she looked like she was coming at herself, so she didn't need to be so polite, she came out to greet her in person.

Yunxiao glanced at the sunspot and said, "Stand down, I have something to say to your county master."

Heizi glanced at Lu Fei and beckoned a few palanquin drivers to retreat far away.

Lu Fei looked at this frame, what is the big deal, so serious, maybe he wants to talk about ideals and life together?

"I've seen the county lord," Lu Fei remembered to salute after a burst of joy in his heart.

"Lord Lu doesn't have to be polite, there is something I want to ask my lord to tell me the truth"

"Lord of the county, please speak"

"Are you here today for Counselor Zhang?"

Lu Fei was slightly stunned, she also knew about this? That ginseng will come to Susong and must have nothing to do with the Zhao Mansion, "Also, it can be regarded as it, mainly for the fishing rent that the county master confessed last time, and he came back to his life just after he came back."

Although Yunxiao's eyes were full of grievances, they were also very moving, and at this time she was revealing a kind of concern, she said slowly, "Lord Lu, more is better than less, less close to this Zhang Counselor, you don't have to ask about the bandits, let them go."

Lu Fei didn't understand what she meant, and hurriedly asked, "County Lord, what do you mean by this?" ”

At this time, the voice of the door on the stone steps of the Zhao family's gate came, "County Lord, young master invites Lu Fei to go in"

Yunxiao glared back at the doorman, "Got it"

"Don't ask why, I've heard of your deeds, you are an upright magistrate, but if you want to be a good official in this Susong, it is difficult, adults are good at themselves, remember my words, and get close to General Zhang, it's good for you"

After speaking, he turned around and walked into the gate of the Zhao Mansion.

"County Lord ......" Lu Fei was confused.

When the county lord walked in, he stretched out his hand and said, "Lord Lu, please, my young master is waiting in the front hall."

……

The Yangtze River in August is the time when the river water is rising sharply, the surging river is surging eastward, and a fleet of ships is planting flags all over the place, and the mighty Yangtze River is coming in the direction of Susong.

A large sail embroidered with the word 'Zhang' is waving in the wind on the leading warship, and the soldiers on both sides of the hull stand bravely holding their guns, their clothes and armor are distinct, and they look at it from a distance and have a bit of majestic and majestic atmosphere.

Zhang Rake and a few of his entourage were on the deck raising their eyes and looking at the riverbank, as if they were eager to let the boat dock immediately so that they could kill the bandits and make meritorious contributions.

Zhang Rake put his hands on the pergola, his face was full of beard, his body was very strong, and his mouth was a little bit of a broken horse Zhang Fei, "Vice General Li, where is this mother?" ”

Vice General Li is Zhang Razi's left and right hand, not very old, but he was born with a sharp-beaked monkey gill, he looks a few years older than Zhang Rake, and his status in this government camp army is only second to Zhang Rake, he also raised his hand and looked at the shore, "General, more than fifty miles further forward is Susong Wharf, listen to the people sent by Steward Hu, all the military supplies will be sent to the wharf before we arrive."

Zhang Rake nodded, "Well, okay, pass the order, speed up, be sure to rush to Susong City before night."

When the flag soldier on the side heard this, he waved the command flag in his hand, and for a while, the various boats flew over, stirring up bursts of white flowers in the river, and the entire fleet shuttled quickly on the river.

Zhang Rake and Vice Admiral Li stood at the bow of the ship.

"General, why are you in such a hurry?" Vice General Li was puzzled, what was the fuss about the bandits, it was not that the officers and soldiers immediately dispersed as soon as they arrived, and it didn't matter if they went early or late.

Zhang Rake smiled and shook his head, "This time is different, this time is not the same, the prefect of the Wang Mansion secretly instructed him before, saying that the county master and this Su Songzhi County are not very good at dealing with each other, let us act at the opportunity, this person is unusual, the unlucky Wang Zhongren died because of him, and he has earned a lot of fame in the county at this time, let's go this time to be noble and fast, and make a fortune before this bird Zhi County is prepared."

Vice General Li was still puzzled, "Do what you need to do?" What do you mean by that? ”

Zhang Rake smiled mysteriously, leaned over and whispered in his ear, "Whoever stops us from getting rich, we will remove him."

Vice General Li reacted, smiled coldly with a disdainful expression, and said softly, "Borrowed a knife to kill people, and used us as a gun again."

Zhang Rake didn't care, "Fuck it, these days to support the bold, starve to death the cowardly, as long as we don't die, and there is silver, I don't care who he kills"

Vice General Li thought about it and felt that something was wrong, no matter how stupid Zhao Junma was, it was impossible for him to dare to kill Zhixian, the Zhao family had a big business, and he was rich, and there was no reason for him to risk killing a county master in order to fight for a single effort.

Vice General Li smiled, "I don't think this matter is like the meaning of the county horse, but it seems to be made by that Hu steward, I heard that Wang Zhongren had a very good personal relationship with him during his lifetime, maybe he planned to avenge Wang Zhongren."

Zhang Rake laughed, and touched his round belly through the armor, "I'm sorry, can Steward Hu still avenge Wang Zhongren?" Dreaming, both of them aren't good, what the are you doing?"

The warship is galloping on the river, the fifty-mile waterway will soon arrive, the crowded Susong wharf in front is already close in front of you, the wharf on the Yangtze River in Susong is still more than sixty miles away from Susong, if you don't speed up your foot strength, you really can't catch up before dark.

As soon as the warships docked one after another, after receiving the supplies, Zhang Rake gave an order, and the two thousand troops went straight to Susong City with great might, and Zhang Rake personally led five hundred cavalry and rode forward.

When Lu Fei entered the Zhao Mansion, Zhao Junma still stood in front of the hall with an amiable face as in the past, hugging his fists and saying, "The weather is hot and humid, and the county master has worked hard all the way."

Steward Hu also bowed his hands on the side, with a sly scorn on his face.

Lu Feizheng stared at the back of the clouds in the distance, thinking about what her words meant, why should I stay away from General Zhang, is it difficult for a small general to dare to kill me?

Lu Fei's heart was suddenly shocked, there is really this possibility, Zhang Senjiang was secretly invited by the Zhao Mansion, Zhao Junma expected that there would be no such evil thoughts, but Steward Hu couldn't say, this old boy hated me so much, if he hid from his master to buy Zhang Shen will kill me, this is still quite easy, when the time comes, under the pretext of revenge of the bandits, death will be in vain, and finally the Wang Governor's Mansion will come to Susongzhi County to die in the line of duty, that is not too unjust.

"Lord Lu," Zhao Junma said again.

Lu Fei's thoughts were temporarily pulled back, and he smiled, "Oh, oh, Jun Ma Ye, I just came back from the fishing village, so I immediately gave Jun Ma Ye his life."

"Lord Lu, please sit down, how can you and I talk about resuming my life, Lord Lu is busy with this mundane matter in my house, I heard that he was also injured, how dare Zhao?"

A maid from the Zhao Mansion was placing the teacup in front of Lu Fei, smiling, "My lord, please use tea"

"Okay, use tea with tea" Lu Fei looked at the maid and muttered in his heart, the subordinates of the Zhao Mansion are so beautiful, the rich will enjoy it, and one day let Master Li look for a few, and if there is nothing to do in the county office, it is also a scenery.

The maid saw that the county master had been staring at her, her face flushed, and she bowed down and withdrew.

Lu Fei smiled, turned his head to Zhao Junma and said, "It's nothing, it's nothing, Junma doesn't have to be polite, it's just a gesture."

Zhao Junma picked up the teacup, took a sip lightly, and pretended to be surprised, "Listening to the county master's tone, I guess this fishing rent must have been a success."

Lu Fei nodded confidently, "Hehe, almost"

Steward Hu on the side couldn't help but laugh, and said secretly: A big boy didn't come up and didn't say anything, his head was broken, that's about it, his face is really thick enough, and you will have to show your stuffing soon.

Zhao Junma pretended to be happy, "Lord Lu is really extraordinary, how much has he received in total?" ”

In fact, Steward Hu had already told Zhao Junma what Lu Fei had done in the fishing village, and it was precisely because of his words that Zhao Junma quickly made up his mind to invite General Zhang to come to suppress the bandits, and dared to act in front of the county horse, which would have to endure hardships.

……

Lu Fei doesn't like to taste tea, the purpose of drinking tea is to quench his thirst, and slowly taking a small sip will only make Lu Fei more and more thirsty the more he drinks, and the thick tea gushes through his throat to be enjoyable.

Lu Fei didn't answer, he took a big sip of the tea cup in front of him, smacked his mouth, and sighed, "Well, good tea, good tea, it's really the best Huangshan Maofeng"

Steward Hu smiled, "The adult's tea tasting kung fu is really extraordinary, and he can actually taste the West Lake Longjing with the flavor of Mao Feng, which is clever and clever, and I admire it, ah, haha"

Several family members standing around in the hall were laughing, and Zhao Junma was also happy in his heart, but he still had to give face, he snorted pretendedly, "What are you laughing at, there are no rules, go down, Lord Lu, don't be surprised, don't be like the next person."

Lu Fei just said casually, not to mention Longjing, even the taste of Huangshan Maofeng that he tasted was nonsense, but of course he couldn't lose face in front of these subordinates, so he hurriedly picked up the teacup again, took a sip, and nodded, "Well, yes, yes, it's Longjing, it's Longjing, you see, I've been thinking about West Lake these days, my Master Li said that I was calling West Lake when I was talking in my sleep at night, I didn't expect that this tea could be connected to West Lake, and I smiled when I saw it."

Steward Hu smiled coldly, "Lord Lu is really eloquent, but you don't seem to have answered the question of the county master, how much fishing rent did you collect this time?"

Zhao Junma pretended not to care at all, and tasted tea by himself.

Lu Fei's mouth stirred, squeezed out a piece of tea from his mouth, and spit on the ground casually, "Well, I said Zhao Junma, have you ever been to West Lake?" ”

Zhao Junma was stunned, what kind of tricks does this kid play, he can't receive the money and just say, "There is heaven above, there is Suzhou and Hangzhou below, Hangzhou's Meina is in the West Lake, of course I have been there, why do you ask so?"

Steward Hu didn't miss any opportunity to count Lu Fei, "Lord Lu, why do you always go around the West Lake, the county master asked you how much rent you charged, why didn't you answer?"

Lu Fei rubbed his hands, leaned back on the chair, crossed his legs, and looked relaxed and happy, "I don't hide it, I haven't received a penny."

Zhao Junmian began to show his true face, and said sideways, "Oh, but looking at the leisurely appearance of the adult, it doesn't look like nothing."

Steward Hu interjected, "Young Master, I remembered that Lord Lu has been busy helping those fishermen get some collective property in the past two days, so he shouldn't have taken care of the young master's business."

Lu Fei glanced at Steward Hu from the corner of his eye, smiled disdainfully, and turned his face to Zhao Junma, "There is something to help fishermen make a living, and it is true that I have nothing to gain, but it's not that I don't accept this money, but I don't want Jun Ma Ye to do the thing of picking up sesame seeds and dropping watermelons."

Zhao Junma looked at one side again, "What do you mean?" ”

"Dare to ask how much fishing rent can the county master collect from the lake this year?" Lu Fei leaned back on the chair, playing with the tea cup on the table in his hand, and gently tapped the lid of the cup against the empty teacup, making a soft and crisp clanging sound.

"My lord, what do you ask about this?" Zhao Junma couldn't help frowning, what does this kid mean, it's hard to want to check the accounts.

Lu Fei waved his hand, "Don't think too much about it, or I guess, eighty thousand taels should be about the same."

This is not what he guessed, it was Li Shun who told him a few days ago, this number is not accurate, of course, this may not even be clear to Zhao Junma himself, these things are basically done by Steward Hu in Zhang Luo, and 80,000 taels is about the same.

Zhao Qunma didn't speak, he was waiting for Lu Fei's next words.

Lu Fei continued, "Since the county horse master does not object, it is 80,000 taels, of course this sesame small amount of money will not be asked by the county horse master, but I think this money can be doubled three times, I don't know if this is a watermelon in the eyes of the county horse master."

Zhao Junma's eyes lit up, and his hand holding the lid of the cup stopped, "What do you mean by Lord Lu?" Two hundred and forty thousand taels of silver? Where did it come from? ”

Lu Fei smiled, "Of course there is a source, but there is still one step to achieve this purpose, I will think about it again, and tell the county master when I think about it one day."

Steward Hu definitely didn't believe it, he thought that this was the fact that Lu Fei was deliberately exculpating himself and was ineffective, the fishing rent of 80,000 taels of silver was enough to scrape the fishermen along the lake clean, and it would be tripled, who would dare, it really forced these people to be anxious, and if they couldn't keep it, some people would dare to pull the flag and rebel.

"Young master, be careful, this kid is very ghostly, 240,000 taels, I think this is like a fake when I hear it" Steward Hu attached himself to Zhao Junma's shoulder and whispered, and after speaking, he straightened up and said to Lu Gan, "Lord Lu, you can't talk in front of the county master, 240,000 taels, this amount is not small"

Lu Fei also straightened up from the chair, shook his head and sighed, "Alas, forget it, since you don't believe it, then don't talk about this gossip, let's talk about another thing."

Zhao Junma doesn't look like the county master is lying, maybe there is really a way to get this money, of course, the Zhao family is a merchant family, but any way to make money will not be let go lightly, this kid is hiding half and revealing half, he is hanging my appetite.

"Oh, what else is going on with Lord Lu?" Zhao Junma is also a person with a better identity, and it is difficult to ask how to exchange sesame seeds for watermelon.

Lu Fei got up and walked in the hall, "It's also a trivial matter, the county Ma Ye already knows about the accidental killing of Wang Zhongren by the mountain bandits, but someone in my yamen heard the news that General Zhang of the Anqing Mansion Battalion has come to encircle and suppress it with an army of 2,000, I don't know if the county Ma Ye knows about it."

It was not too early for Lu Fei to see that it was too early, and General Zhang said that he would arrive, and there was no time to go around the bend with him.

Zhao Junma shook his head, "The county master is really well-informed, unlike the Zhao family, who has no news, I don't know, what, do you want him to come or don't want him to come?" ”

Lu Fei also shook his head, leaned closer to Zhao Junma, frowned, and said softly, "In front of the county horse, I will tell the truth, there is a bandit in the county, if the emperor knows, he will have to deduct me for a few months, who provokes me with this trick, I just took office a few days after I put on this matter, I can't do it, I will hit my heels when I fart, so I have to remedy it."

Zhao Jun Ma Dao, "How do adults remedy it?"

Lu Fei said, "Of course, I took down this gang of bandits before the emperor got angry, maybe I could get the merit over."

Zhao Jun shook his head, "Well, it makes sense, but the adult has said last time that he will personally go out to exterminate the bandits in the mountain, a few days ago I sent someone to send the money to the county government, but I don't know when the adult plans to send troops, how many percent of the chance of victory, I really sweat for the adult, and now it is just right, Zhang Shen will help the adult in the future, and it will definitely be a victory."

Lu Fei squeezed down on Zhao Jun's chair, hugged his shoulder, and cried with a sad face, "Where can there be such a good thing, that is the government camp army, he Zhang Shen General has made meritorious contributions to suppressing bandits, where is my credit, last time I heard the county horse master say that you have some business dealings with that counselor general, so I wanted to come over and beg the county horse master, can you talk to that counselor general, the affairs of this county should be handed over to the county government to deal with, and I won't have to work for the army to run."

Of course, Lu Fei can't say that he is afraid that General Zhang's army will come to loot the people, but what he is saying now is also the truth.

Zhao Jun laughed, he finally understood why Lu Fei said that the 240,000 taels of silver came from when he sold it, this is something to ask for, but he really can't help this favor, the army has moved, so it is useless, Zhang Shenjiang will not agree, the army is working in vain, and the court money and food are wasted, this is a big crime, no matter how much money Zhang will not accept.

Zhao Junma stood up, he was very unaccustomed to having a man squeeze on a chair with him, and laughed lightly, "What the adult said is not unreasonable, but this favor is only afraid that the adult will be disappointed, how can I, a nominal county horse, have the right to order a general, my lord should find another way."

Of course, Lu Fei knew that he would not agree so lightly, and sighed, "Alas, life is hard, if you get it, it is a blessing or a curse, and it is a disaster that cannot be avoided, Jun Ma Ye, go, if the emperor doesn't kill me another day, come and discuss with Jun Ma Ye how to earn those 240,000 taels of silver."

Lu Fei got up and left, and arrived at the door in a blink of an eye.

Zhao Junma hurriedly said, "My lord stays, this, this, seeing the adult so sad, this county horse can't bear it, so let's do it, for the sake of seeing it at first sight with the adult, I will also show this face, go and beg this Zhang Counselor, this battle must bring the adult's righteous army, this is also the only thing Zhao can help the adult, and there will be no less adult's name in the merit book at that time."

Lu Fei was secretly happy, and arched his hand and said, "Then thank you to the county master, it's better to let General Zhang's army be stationed on the mountain first, let my righteous army take the lead first, if you succeed and merit half of the family, General Zhang will not lose a soldier, I don't think he will refuse this glory"

It would be better for the army to be stationed at the foot of a hill than to let them into the city and cause trouble.

Zhao Junma thought about the 240,000 taels of silver, and thought, "Lord Lu said and laughed, how General Zhang fought, this is a military secret, Zhao is afraid that he doesn't have such a big face, but for the sake of adults, I am willing to give it a try."

"Then thank you Jun Ma Ye, I will definitely repay the great grace in the future, I will go back to arrange it first, I won't bother Jun Ma Ye, and say goodbye" Lu Fei turned around and left again.

"Lord Lu, what about the 240,000 taels of silver?" Zhao Junma smiled awkwardly.

Lu Fei didn't look back this time, leaving only one sentence, "The general will inevitably die in battle, if I can survive this time to suppress the bandits, I will discuss this matter with the county master."

Zhao Junma looked coldly at Lu Fei's back, gritting his teeth, "Take me, you kid is playing with fire."

Steward Hu saw that the young master was angry, and hurriedly said, "Young master, or I will send a message to General Zhang now, and let him take the opportunity to kill this kid."

But he didn't expect Zhao Junma to turn his face and say viciously, "Fart, you dare to kill him, I'll kill you first, go, send someone to inform General Zhang, do what I just said"

……

On the second floor of the deep mansion of the Zhao Mansion, Yunxiao was standing in front of the windowsill looking at Lu Fei in the distance, I don't know why, she always felt that the strange man in front of her had a sense of déjà vu, and there was an indescribable force in him pulling her, she didn't know why.

It wasn't until many years later that she realized that what attracted her was Lu Fei's free-spirited, arrogant, cynical, sometimes ridiculously naïve, sometimes righteous and almost nonsense, something she would never see in her man who was not a man.

A maid walked over quickly, "Madam, Lord Lu is gone, they said ......"

"Got it, let's go down" Yunxiao smiled, a touch of the morning sun on his face.
