"Qujing Green Battalion? Xiao Yong, you are the head of the Qujing Green Battalion, and you are in charge of all the Green Battalion soldiers in the entire Qujing Mansion except for Luo Ping? Did I hear me right? Am I not mistaken? ”

After listening to the narration of his eldest cousin Qin Yong, and seeing the cotton and iron sheets on his cousin's body and the plate armor with copper nails, as well as the radar antenna on his eldest cousin's head, Fat Lu opened his mouth and was ecstatic, and suddenly had a feeling that he was about to faint with happiness - what a good Mazi Emperor, what he lacks the most, Emperor Mazi will send what he over! Not only did they send the army that they dreamed of being able to recruit and train troops in an upright manner, but they also sent quite a lot of army personnel and military equipment!

Such a good emperor of Shengming and Shenwu, how many can there be in this world from ancient times to the present? Fat Lu will, endure the disgusting thoughts of kissing Xiao Mazi's hemp face, I'm afraid it's all there!

"Cousin, I can't believe it, I'm still confused." Qin Yong said shyly: "At that time, I stayed at Lord Suo's house for one night, and early the next morning, Lord Suo asked people to take me to the military department and led me to meet an adult surnamed Huang, who said that I had made meritorious contributions to the suppression of the bandits in Niutou Mountain in Henan, and I wanted to be rewarded for my meritorious deeds, and then he gave me a letter and official documents, and asked me to go back to Qujing to be the capital and take charge of the green camp here." ”

"Cousin, I've never been to Niutou Mountain in my life, and I don't know what bandits are on Niutou Mountain, how can the officials of the military department say that I exterminated the bandits there?" Qin Yong asked with a sad face, "What is this for?" Don't be in trouble, right? ”

"For what? It's because of your cousin's face, of course! Your cousin is now a celebrity in front of the prince of Pingxi, and of course the court has to give him face. Qin Chuanwu slapped his son on the back of the head, barely guessed half of the reason why his son was suddenly promoted to the capital, and scolded: "Why don't you kowtow to your cousin and thank you?" If you listen to Yifeng's words more in the future, maybe you can be promoted again, and give our Qin family a little more face! ”

Qin Yong was honest and obedient, and quickly knelt down to thank him, and Lu Fatzi hurriedly helped him up, saying that he didn't need to, but he really regretted it in his heart - he knew that there was such a result, and he should have sent Li Tianzhi directly to take on this errand. However, considering that his cousin was a fool this time, and happened to leave a deep impression on Xiao Mazi, Lu Fatzi was quickly relieved, and he changed Li Tianzhi to be on this errand, so he may not have such luck. Moreover, his cousin is more obedient and reliable, and it is no better to let him be the honorary commander of the army than to let Li Tianzhi directly be the commander of the capital.

At this time, Qin Chuanwu, Lu Fatzi's uncle, asked worriedly: "But Yifeng, Xiao Yong's words also make sense, the imperial court will not be a problem if he is so clueless and brainless, right?" ”

Fat Lu picked up the official document that Qin Yong brought with him, looked through it for a while, and said with a smile: "Uncle, please rest assured, there will be no problem, this is an official appointment from the imperial court, and Xiao Yong's resume has also been sealed in the Ministry of War, it is the official and legal Qujing Division, and no one can take it away." ”

"That's good, that's good, Yifeng, Xiao Yong is really touching your light." Qin Chuanwu finally put his mind at ease, and he smiled so much that he almost couldn't close his mouth, and even the family was fortunate to have two big officials in one go, and all of them were officials in Qujing, and their Qin family was in Qujing in the future, but they couldn't go sideways.

"One more thing, cousin, you must help me." Qin Yong was just honest and not stupid, and hurriedly said: "I have never been an official, let alone an officer in the army, you must teach me how to lead soldiers and how to be an official, otherwise, I will definitely not be able to be an official." ”

"Ha, there is growth, I can take this into account." Fat Lu laughed happily, turned his gaze to Li Tianzhi, who was already eager to try, and said with a smile: "Don't be afraid, let's Qujing County Yazang Dragon Crouching Tiger, cousin has already prepared a talent reserve for you - Brother Tianzhi, how about it?" Can you be aggrieved and go to my cousin's side as a deputy for the time being, and take him to familiarize himself with how to lead the army? How to train and use soldiers? ”

"Dare to disobey?" Li Tianzhi, who dreamed of returning to the army and leading the troops again, agreed loudly, "When Li Tianzhi was cornered, it was Brother Lu who took me in and treated me like a brother, can I not listen to your orders?" Brother Lu rest assured, give me a month, and help Brother Qin Yong sit firmly in the position of the capital of Qujing Green Camp, and there will not be a Qiu Ba dare to play tricks in front of Brother Qin Yong! ”

"No, it's not enough!" Fat Lu said in a deep voice: "I not only want you to help Xiao Yong sit in this position, but also want you to help Xiao Yong to give me a big change in the Qujing Green Battalion, and the combat effectiveness must at least catch up with the elite army of the prince!" As for military spending and equipment, you can rest assured that even if the allocation from above is not enough, I will find a way for you! ”

"Brother Lu, don't worry, it's not me bragging, when I was in Guangzhou before, the most elite army under the command of the prince was brought out by me!" Li Tianzhi patted his chest and said, "Brother Lu, I plan to bring the three brothers of the Liu family, Fang Shiyu and Hong Xiguan to the army, so that they can also learn how to lead troops and train soldiers, so that you can be in charge of it alone in the future." Also, they are all good, and they can shock those old Qiu Ba when they get to the army. ”

"Cheng, it's all for you." Fat Lu nodded and said, "Including Xiao Erlang and Qin Mo, all the people under me take turns to join the army for training, so that they can all learn to exercise and exercise." ”

Li Tianzhi was overjoyed, and hurriedly pulled Qin Yong to prepare to go, until everyone dispersed, and Zhu Fangdan, who had not spoken beside him, said: "Dongjia, the emperor gave you a green battalion soldier for nothing, which is a great thing, but on the prince's side, how can you explain?" ”

"How do you explain? Isn't it enough to explain truthfully? Lu Fatzi said confidently: "The prince has long known that I was sent by the emperor to monitor him and reconnoiter Yungui's movements, I inadvertently exposed the truth about Wu Liuyi's murder, and did not violate the fundamental interests of the prince, and now the court has rewarded me with the Qujing Green Battalion, so that the prince has selected two thousand green battalion troops for nothing, and has deepened the contradiction between the emperor and Aobai, it is too late for the prince to steal the fun, and he will blame me?" ”

"That's true." Zhu Fangdan was still a little worried, and said: "But the student thinks that it is better for you to be careful with the owner, you were originally the real and unknown Taishang prefect of Qujing Mansion, and now the imperial court has handed over the Qujing Green Camp to your cousin, and half of Qujing's military and civil affairs are basically in your hands - to put it mildly, it is equivalent to half of Qujing's soil emperor." Even if the prince is magnificent, he will not be suspicious of you, but it is difficult to guarantee that the people around the prince will not mutter. Owner, if the student remembers correctly, the relationship between you and Wang Shirong is not very good. ”

"There is some truth in your words." Lu Fatzi was reminded by Zhu Fangdan, and said in a deep voice: "But Wang Shirong really has nothing there, except for being arrogant and cautious, that kid is not particularly jealous and jealous, and likes to look at others." The point is that, apart from Wang Shirong, those villains who have no public conflict with me but like to have pink eye in private are the real difficulties. ”

Holding the fat head and thinking for a long time, Lu Fatzi said slowly while sorting out his thoughts: "Master Zhu, you write for me, first write a letter to my teacher, Mr. Liu Xuanchu, tell him the truth about this matter, ask him to report and explain to the prince alone, and then ask him to ask the prince for a favor on my behalf, and ask the prince to send his guards Kong Fanlin and Luo Kedi to Qujing, enter the Qujing Green Camp to help my cousin lead the army, or directly serve in the Qujing Green Camp." ”

"The owner wants to ask the prince to send someone to spy on your army?" Zhu Fangdan raised his eyebrows and said: "This is a good idea, I ask the prince to send someone to monitor, but I can show the prince that you are frank and selfless, and I believe that the prince will be able to understand and understand the owner's loyalty to him." And please ask Mr. Mao Yao to come forward to explain to the prince, so that you don't have to worry about others taking the opportunity to get in the way. But what the students don't understand is, how did you name Kong Fanlin and Luo Kedi? ”

"There are two reasons, one is that when I went to Guangdong on business, these two guys brought people to protect me, and they got along with me quite well, and now if I can let them come to Qujing, I can deal with them better." Lu Fatzi explained: "As for the second reason, in order to avoid the tracking of Kong Sizhen's bitch, I asked Kong Fanlin to take us on the mountain road and walk at night, that guy is an elite scout, I have witnessed the rich experience in this area, with him to help, I believe it will help us train a group of elite scouts." ”

"I see, it's the owner who thinks about it carefully." Zhu Fangdan nodded, and then suggested: "Then the owner, the student thinks that it is best for you to explain these two reasons to Mr. Mao Yao, he understands your intentions, and will try his best to fight for this for you." ”

"Very well, then you can make it clear in the letter." Lu Fatzi nodded with satisfaction, and said: "After writing this letter, you can help me write a letter to the second prince Wu Yingqi, and tell him that Qujing is busy with official business, and I am also the messenger of the Nule Peak camp, so I can't be busy, so I ask him to do me a favor and choose a capable person from the prince to come over as my deputy and serve as the county governor of Qujing County." ”

"Qujing County?" Zhu Fangdan shook his eyes and said, "Owner, I'm afraid this is impossible, right?" According to the law, the county border is centered on the county seat, and there is no county for those who are less than 20 miles on all sides. ”

"This gives Wu Yingqi a headache." Lu Fatzi said calmly: "Anyway, my purpose is to tell the prince that I am loyal to him, and I am not afraid that he will set up an eyeliner to monitor my government and military affairs, of course it is better if he does not send it, and we will save a trouble." It doesn't matter if it's sent, anyway, with Qujing's current finances, it won't take much effort to raise one more county. ”

"Understood, the student is going to write the letter." Zhu Fangdan agreed with understanding, knowing that Lu Fatzi wanted to show Wu Sangui his frankness and selflessness to the greatest extent and show his sincere loyalty to the Pingxi Palace.

………………

Two days later, Lu Fatzi's two letters were sent to Kunming at the same time, and they were handed over to Liu Xuanchu and Wu Yingqi respectively.

As Lu Fatzi expected, Wu Laohan not only did not violate his own interests, but on the contrary, it was equivalent to giving himself the army establishment of 2,000 green battalions for nothing, so Wu Laohan not only did not get angry and angry, but secretly had fun, and also agreed to Lu Fatzi's request, and sent his henchmen Kong Fanlin and Luo Kedi to serve in the Qujing Green Camp to assist Lu Fatzi's cousin Qin Yong in training troops and controlling the army - by the way, he looked at Lu Fatzi's cousin, lest the two brothers run Qujing into their reading kingdom.

After making this decision, Wu Yingqi also took Lu Fatzi's letter to discuss with his father -- it is not that Wu Yingqi has decided to appoint and dismiss a Bapin County Cheng, the key is that Qujing County is too small, and there is no official establishment of the county Cheng at all. And when things came to this point, Wu Sangui, who was also old and slippery, of course understood Lu Fatzi's thoughts, and was secretly satisfied with Lu Fatzi's initiative to show his loyalty, Wu Sangui nodded and said: "You can give it to him, but you can't say to the outside world that he asked for it, so that others think that it was our Pingxi Mansion that forcibly arranged a county to Qujing." ”

"Okay, the boy went down and arranged it." Wu Yingqi agreed, and secretly rejoiced in his heart -- thanks to the blessing of the Eight Banners Fushou Ointment, the current official position in Qujing Mansion is a first-class sought-after commodity in Guizhou, Yunnan, even if it is a county, it is easy to sell it for a few thousand taels of silver.

"Wait." Wu Sangui was also afraid that his son would only stare at the silver in his eyes, and whoever would be sent to Qujing to fill the vacancy would continue to ruin the reputation of the Western Election Officer, and he also missed a great opportunity in vain - Lu Fatzi and Xiao Mazi and Ao Bai are all connected, and no one will be left to stare at Lu Fatzi, and Wu Sangui is really a little uneasy when it comes to conscience. So after Wu Sangui stopped his son, he quickly changed his words and said: "That's it, Qujing's position is a bit important, this Qujing will be arranged by me personally, so don't interfere." ”

"Father, it's just a Bapin County, don't bother you to arrange it yourself, right?" Wu Yingqi asked without giving up.

"Don't be wordy, if you say that I will arrange it myself, I will arrange it personally, you don't care." Wu Sangui's eyes widened, and he shouted: "Go, call your eldest brother-in-law, and then invite Mr. Yanxian and Wang Shirong, and I will personally discuss this official candidate with them." ”

The thin arms couldn't twist the thick thighs, and although he was still bleeding and crying despite a hundred reluctance in his heart, Wu Yingqi finally obediently agreed, and called Hu Guozhu, Fang Guangchen and Wang Shirong, the three bad species, to Wu Lao Han Annihilation. As soon as the three bad breeds heard that they were going to install people to Lu Fatzi's side, they immediately applauded and agreed incomparably - Lu Fatzi's ability in the past year was not enough to make these three bad breeds jealous and want to get rid of them quickly, but it was enough to make them worried. If such a talent can't be controlled and eventually used by the imperial court, then the Pingxi Royal Mansion will lose too much.

"Father-in-law, what do you think of Li Yanying?" Hu Guozhu was the first to suggest: "He has followed your father-in-law for many years, he is loyal and reliable, and he is careful and cautious, so it should be appropriate to send him to Qujing to be the county governor." ”

"Lord Wang, the student thinks it can't." Fang Guangchen objected and said solemnly: "Lu Yifeng asked to send the county prince, clearly wanting to show his loyalty to the prince of Pingxi Wangfu, to show his frankness and selflessness, which is enough to prove that he is indeed loyal to the prince. Although you shouldn't miss this opportunity, you can't send the old man of Pingxi Wangfu over, the surveillance intention is too obvious, and it hurts the hearts of loyal ministers. And the old people in Pingxi Wangfu have been with you for a long time, and it is inevitable that they have more or less developed a domineering surname, Lu Yifeng's temper in this regard is not too good, so he sent them over, if he can't get along with Lu Yifeng, and the tip of the needle does it to Mai Mang, it will be really self-defeating. ”

"Makes sense." Wu Sangui nodded and said: "Yifeng is a rare talent, and at present, he is an indispensable talent in our Pingxi Palace, and the emperor and Aobai are also extremely appreciative of him. ”

"Mr. Yanxian has thought it carefully, I am a little reckless." Hu Guozhu was quite modest, and quickly admitted that he had failed to consider, and asked: "Then according to Mr. Yanxian's opinion, what kind of people should we send over?" ”

"Obedient, loyal, and preferably a little ability, able to share some burden for Yifeng." Fang Guangchen replied: "The key is that this person must be low-key, and he can't conflict with Yifeng in Qujing, he can only spy secretly." ”

"So, I have the right person." Wang Shirong finally spoke and said, "General Jinwu, Mr. Yanxian, do you remember the last time we saw Chen Dou in General Xia Guoxiang's army?" ”

"Chen Dou?" Being reminded by Wang Shirong like this, Hu Guozhu and Fang Guangchen immediately remembered such a person - at that time, the Kunming garrison checked the grain and rice income and expenditure, and other bookstores were holding a thick stack of account books, sweating profusely to check the accounts one by one, but this Chen Dou didn't look at the account book, and hundreds of grain and rice income and expenditure were memorized word for word, Hu Guozhu and Fang Guangchen and others were greatly surprised, and talked with this Chen Dou for a few words, Chen Dou answered fluently, but never answered a word more, said a word more, and was silent, left a deep impression on Hu Guozhu and Fang Guangchen and others.

"Yes, this is a good fit." Fang Guangchen was the first to nod and said, "I just don't know what the situation of this person is now, I remember that General Jinwu asked General Xia to reuse this person at that time." ”

"It doesn't matter what he is now, just call him in and ask." Hu Guozhu snorted, turned to Wu Sangui again, and roughly said his impression of Chen Dou. Wu Sangui was also very happy when he heard this, and said: "It turns out that there is still such a talent hidden in our Pingxi Palace. Quick, let Xia Guoxiang find him for this king to see, and if it is suitable, send him to Qujing. ”

It took a lot of time, Xia Guoxiang finally found this Chen Dou, and when this middle-aged scholar who was only in his forties and already had gray braids was brought to Yin'an Palace, Wu Sangui's first impression was that he felt a little familiar, and he felt as if he had seen it there, but considering that this Chen Dou was originally a person under his Pingxi Palace, he might have seen it somewhere before, so Wu Sangui didn't think much about it, and directly asked about Chen Dou's knowledge. The result is generally quite satisfactory, but I feel that this Chen Dou is too taciturn, as if he is not interested in anything.

"Do you want to send this Chen Dou?" Wu Sangui thought in his heart, and looked at Chen Dou carefully for a long time, Wu Sangui couldn't help but have another thought in his heart, "This guy, how can he become more familiar the more he looks at it?" I must have seen it there, but why can't I remember it? ”

"Father-in-law, what do you think?" Hu Guozhu asked in a low voice: "Do you want to send him to Qujing?" ”

"Let me think again, what's the hurry?" Wu Sangui scolded casually, and suddenly his heart moved violently, Wu Sangui suddenly stood up, looked at Chen Dou with wide eyes, and his body almost trembled. Hu Guozhu was startled, and hurriedly asked, "Father-in-law, what's wrong?" Is there something wrong? ”

"I didn't ...... It's nothing. Wu Sangui shook his head, and after glancing at Chen Dou again, Wu Sangui's lips moved, and he said after a while: "Just him, let him go to Qujing, be the Cheng of Qujing County, and be Yifeng's deputy." ”

"Father-in-law, have you decided?" Hu Guozhu asked in a worried whisper, "Why did you stand up just now?" Did you notice something wrong? ”

"Nothing." Wu Sangui twisted his face away, not letting his son-in-law see the look in his eyes, and said lightly: "Just let him go, this king has decided." He goes, and the king is relieved. ”
