"Fu Fu Tai, Fu Fu Tai, the last general is back."

Shouting, Yang Guotai, the counselor of the Chaozhou Prefecture in Guangdong, hurriedly rushed into the back garden of the Chaozhou prefect's yamen, and then rushed into the prefect's study located in the west of the back garden, wiping the sweat on his face and neck, while shouting at the Chaozhou prefect Fu Honglie, who was reading in the study: "Lord Futai, the last general is back, and the errand you gave is all done!" Ouch, it's just that the weather is so terrible that the last general is dying of heat. ”

"It's better hot than cold, right? You are in the midst of blessings and do not know blessings. Fu Honglie smiled and put down the scroll in his hand, and said slowly: "More than 30 years ago, when Emperor Zhu Ming Chongzhen was in power, Guangdong had heavy snow year after year, autumn and winter crops failed year after year, and famine was everywhere. It is also thanks to our two long-lived lords of Shunzhi and Kangxi in the Qing Dynasty that Guangdong has the current wind and rain, and the four seasons are like spring. ”

"It's really hot." Yang Guotai smiled bitterly and shook his handkerchief, and when he twisted it, he grabbed a handful of sweat.

"Forget it, let's talk about it slowly." Fu Honglie said: "Let's talk quickly, find out the situation of Pingnan Wang Xiaogege's team, what is going on?" ”

"Back to the house, the last general has heard clearly." Yang Guotai replied quickly: "Xiao Gege's team arrived yesterday, and it is estimated that it will arrive in Chenghai tomorrow and the day after tomorrow." There are a total of 371 people in the team, including 310 generals and soldiers of Li Tianzhi's army, 23 maids, servants and guards of Xiao Gege, what is Lu Yifeng's Western Election Officer and a team of family members, a total of 28 people. ”

"Are they very protective of Little Gege?" Fu Honglie asked: "Also, in Li Tianzhi's team, how many internal lines did the second prince insert into it?" Get in touch yet? ”

"Very tight." Yang Guotai said helplessly: "Li Tianzhi's kid is very delicate, divides the soldiers into three teams, and takes turns to protect Xiao Gege at night, without his consent, even Lu Yifeng, who is traveling with him, can't casually approach Xiao Gege's carriage and sleeping tent." The second prince didn't have much interest, and only two insiders were placed in this team in total, a bribed army captain and an ordinary guard, all of whom were under control, and there was no chance to approach Xiao Gege alone. ”

"There are not many soldiers, but fine." Fu Honglie said gloomily: "Two inner lines, enough, at least they can help us figure out the work and rest time and travel route of these guards." ”

"So, the master agreed to let us do it?" Yang Guotai asked in surprise.

"Of course I agreed." Fu Honglie nodded, and said with a cruel smile: "How could the master miss such a good opportunity?" ”

"So how do we do it?" Yang Guotai was overjoyed and asked: "Why don't you take a group of people to pretend to be pirates or Taiwan's Zheng Rei's army like last time, and serve them at night?" ”

"The master has explained, you can't act in Chaozhou Mansion, it's best to wait until they arrive in Fujian." Fu Honglie shook his head and said: "The master has thought very carefully, and if he does it in the territory of Chaozhou Mansion, even if he does not leak the slightest rumor, it will inevitably implicate you and me in the end." And to do it in Fujian, first, after the matter is completed, you and I can easily wash away the relationship; The second is that Fujian is the fixed domain of Geng Jimao, the king of Jingnan, and at that time, Wu Sangui's western election officials killed Shang Kexi's youngest daughter on Geng Jimao's territory, and even if the three old dogs don't want to fight dog-eat-dog, they can't help it, and it will be of great benefit to our master and the emperor. ”

"Where exactly do you do it in Fujian?" Yang Guotai asked: "Also, our strength in Fujian is relatively weak, and if we do it there, I'm afraid it will be difficult to wipe out Li Tianzhi's little barbarian team, what to do, we must prepare a foolproof strategy." ”

"Let me think about it." Fu Honglie did not answer in a hurry, but first took out the map of Fujian, looked at the map for a long time, and suddenly said: "Do it in Fengting at the junction of Quanzhou and Putian!" This place is separated from Chaozhou by Zhangzhou and Quanzhou, and we can't be involved in an accident, and it is far away from Geng Jimao's base camp Fuzhou, so we can prevent Geng Jimao from suddenly interfering! What's more, this area is the hardest hit area of the former Ming Dynasty and Taiwan's Zheng Rebellion's activities, even if there is any accident, it can easily be blamed on the former Ming Dynasty and Taiwan's Zheng Rebellion! ”

"Yes, it's still Lord Futai, this is indeed a good place to do it." Yang Guotai was overjoyed and said: "The last general will arrange the manpower, organize the people first, and arrange them in this position in advance." ”

"Don't worry, let me think again." Fu Honglie pondered and meditated again, and after thinking about it for a long time, Fu Honglie suddenly asked again: "General Cathay, if I remember correctly, the intelligence you collected in the past shows that Li Tianzhi, Shang Zhixin's henchman, seems to have a habit of leading troops - all the soldiers in his army who make mistakes will be assigned to the gang room to do miscellaneous work for a period of time as punishment after being punished according to the military law rod, is there such a thing?" ”

"The last general is incompetent, I don't remember it clearly." Yang Guotai replied with a sad face.

"It's okay, I've got a record here." Fu Honglie was not angry, he went to the bookshelf on the side and searched carefully, and quickly took out a book from the middle, and after flipping through a few pages, Fu Honglie slapped the book and said with great joy: "Okay, I really remember correctly, Li Tianzhi has this habit of leading soldiers!" Well, there's a way to wipe out this team of more than 300 people! ”

"My lord, what's the best way to do it?" Yang Guotai asked impatiently.

"Do you remember what happened to those foreign priests?" Fu Honglie smiled and said: "Ao Bai rat eyes are inch-eyed, and the foreigners in Yanjing City are caught and driven away, long live the emperor knows that my Qing army is inseparable from this group of foreigners to buy firearms, so he wants us to come forward and receive these foreign priests to settle down in Guangdong, so as to be used in the future." At that time, in order to thank me, a foreign priest gave me a batch of goldenrod produced by the East India Company, which is very rare in Middle-earth, but it is the main material for the preparation of Menghan medicine. ”

"With sweat medicine?" Yang Guotai's eyes lit up, and he said happily: "That's right, if we let our inner line put some sweat medicine in the diet of Li Tianzhi's team, even if we can't pour all of them, it will be much easier for us to do it again...... and so on." ”

Speaking of this, Yang Guotai scratched his pigtails, and wondered: "Lord Futai, although this method is good, but Shang Zhixiao is not a man in the two inner lines of Li Tianzhi's team, how can he get the sweat medicine of more than 300 people in the army's room?" ”

"Stupid! Forget why I just asked Li Tianzhi about his habit of leading troops? Fu Honglie laughed, twisted his mustache and said happily: "It seems that I, Fu Qingtian of Chaozhou, should go to Chenghai to personally greet the little Gege of the prince of Pingnan, in front of me, Li Tianzhi is embarrassed to shield his subordinates, right?" ”

……………………

It's November soon, but the land of Guangdong is still a hot sun, the sun is vicious, not at all pressed by the dog heat, the sun is smoking, the grass and trees are scorched, and the sun is eating and drinking sand on the official road, and the scale is getting bigger and bigger Lu Daxian makes everyone sweat like rain, sweat and cry bitterly, and curse the ghost weather ghost who killed this day. As for our fat man Lu Daxian, who is 1.65 meters tall and weighs 195, under such weather and such a sun, it is even more painful like hell.

"It's hot, it's hot!" Lu Daxian Ling wailed while constantly wiping the sweat on his head and face, but the handkerchiefs used to wipe his sweat were already soaked through three pieces, and beads of sweat were still gushing out with the fat on Lu Daxianling's face. This pain was so painful that Lu Daxianling, who had always thought that he was handsome and dashing enough, had to make up his mind - in the future, he would have to take some time to lose weight.

"Young master, change a sweat towel, your handkerchief is already soaked." Xiao Erlang gave a sweat towel very obediently, and said flatteringly: "This sweat towel, the small one is drenched with cold water, the young master quickly wipe his face." ”

"Okay, okay, you're smart." Lu Daxian Ling praised repeatedly, snatched the ice sweat towel and wiped it on his fat face, and his expression after suffering for half a day was finally much easier.

"Young master, what have you done?" Taking advantage of Lu Daxian's mood to improve, Xiao Erlang, who has always been gossipy and curious, couldn't wait to ask: "It's been eight days since I left Guangzhou, and I'm about to go to Chaozhou Mansion now, young master, have you done Xiao Gege?" The little ones are still waiting to follow you to eat and drink spicy food. ”

"You're here again!" Lu Daxian couldn't bear it anymore, so he smashed the sweat towel on Xiao Erlang's sycophant's face. However, after this breath, Lu Daxian Ling quickly deflated again, and couldn't help but complain in a low voice: "Get a fart!" In the past eight days, I have only spoken to her three times in total, the first sentence, I asked her if she wanted to rest, and she said well; In the second word, I asked her if she was hungry and if she wanted to eat, and she said no; The third sentence was in Haifeng, I invited her to the salt pan to enjoy the sea view, and she said phew! Just these three sentences, not a word more. ”

"What? In this way, in the past eight days, Xiao Gege has only said three sentences and four words to the young master? Xiao Erlang's face was full of incredulity, and he said in his heart, why did the young master's ability to hook up with women become so bad? In the past, when he was in Dali Mansion, the young master hooked up with a married woman, and it was invincible and invincible.

"No way, girls are thin-skinned." Lu Daxian snorted shamelessly: "Obviously, I am already in love with me in my heart, but I am shy and dare not show it." ”

"Young Master, are you really so sure?" Xiao Erlang smiled bitterly and asked, "Are you sure you're not mistaken?" ”

Lu Daxian Ling's fat face sank, and he was about to ask Xiao Erlang what he meant by this, when a Guangdong soldier came back from front and reported to Lu Daxian Lingyu: "Lord Lu, General Li invites you to come over, I have something to discuss with you." ”

"Got it." Lu Daxian agreed casually, glared at Xiao Erlang again, and scolded, "Come back to settle accounts with you." Then he chased after him.

As soon as they met, Li Tianzhi said straight to the point: "Lord Lu, ten miles further, it is the Chenghai County of Chaozhou Prefecture, and the official road to the capital does not pass through Chaozhou Prefecture, so Chaozhou Governor Fu Honglie and General Yang Guotai and others rushed to Chenghai City, ready to meet Xiao Gege here." Our scouts just now reported that these people were already waiting outside the south gate. ”

"Oh, okay." Lu Daxian Ling said with a smile: "Does General Li mean to let us go faster, don't let Master Fu and them wait?" It's okay, you just get the team up to speed, and I'll tell those bunnies to hurry up, I won't delay your march. ”

"Lord Lu, if it was such a trivial matter, I wouldn't have invited you here." Li Tianzhi's expression was serious, and he glanced at the left and right, and the soldiers on the left and right dispersed, leaving Li Tianzhi and Lu Daxian to ride together and talk alone. It was only at this time that Li Tianzhi lowered his voice and said: "Lord Lu, there is something to tell you, you must be calm, don't shout out - the reason why the prince sent the last general to protect Xiao Gege to the capital is because the prince has received an accurate report and someone is trying to be unfavorable to Xiao Gege. ”

"Sure enough, I expected it, Shang Zhixin really knew that someone was playing Wanyan's idea." Lu Daxian's heart sank, and he pretended to be surprised and asked, "Is there such a thing?" General Lee, are you mistaken? Xiao Gege is such a gentle and kind little girl, how could someone deliberately target her? ”

"It's really inconvenient for me to tell you the details, but the news is true." Li Tianzhi shook his head and said in a low voice: "Lord Lu, I won't tell you, I have also carefully observed you in the past few days, and found that you are indeed a very loyal adult, carefully protecting Xiao Gege according to the orders of the prince, so I dare to tell you these things, and I dare to ask Lord Lu for one thing." ”

"General Li, please say, the subordinate will do his best." Lu Daxian replied solemnly.

"Lord Lu, if you are in Chaozhou Mansion, what danger will Xiao Gege encounter." Li Tianzhi said in a very low voice: "Then please run away with Xiao Gege immediately, don't worry about me, don't let anyone approach Xiao Gege." I know your family is very loyal to you, and there are a few good players in the middle, you should be able to do it, please. ”

"What do you mean?" Lu Daxian was taken aback.

"I'm sorry, I can't tell you." Li Tianzhi shook his head with a painful expression, and said in a low voice: "Anyway, Lord Lu, everything is entrusted to you, after encountering danger, don't let anyone approach Xiao Gege." …… Including, my men. ”

Lu Daxian Ling opened his mouth and stammered, he already understood the overtone in Li Tianzhi's words, and after being shocked, Lu Daxian Ling lowered his voice and asked, "General Li, if you do this, you won't be afraid that you won't be able to explain in the future?" ”

Li Tianzhi was silent, and only whispered for a while: "I lost my parents when I was twelve years old, and I grew up in the family of the prince of Pingxi, and the prince's family is my relatives. Among the prince's children, Xiao Gege has the best heart, and I don't know how many lives have been saved from the sword of the prince and the prince, including many of my siblings, I can't ...... Bite the hand that feeds one. ”

This time, Lu Daxian was silent, and Li Tianzhi whispered again, "Please, from now on, you can approach Xiao Gege's carriage without my permission, and you'd better keep Xiao Gege by your side with reliable people all the time." After that, Li Tianzhi patted his horse and ran away from Lu Daxian Ling's side without looking back.

"Brother Shang, you are really ruthless." Lu Daxian Ling sighed secretly in his heart, and added in his heart, "No, I'm still too soft-hearted, this world is like this, build bridges and pave roads without corpses, kill people and set fire to the gold belt!" If I want to overthrow the Manchus and expel the Tatars, I must learn from the ruthlessness of the Shang brothers, who are more ruthless than them and more poisonous than them! ”

………………

gritted his teeth and cheered himself up, Lu Daxian ordered him to quickly summon the lackeys of the family and let them follow the back of Shang Wanyan's carriage, and specially explained that Xiao Erlang and other four big dogs should follow him at any time, and they were not allowed to leave without their own permission, so as not to find the lackeys when the incident happened suddenly. However, this time, Lu Daxian Ling was somewhat self-aware, and with Li Tianzhi's permission, he could approach Shang Wanyan's carriage at will, but he didn't take the opportunity to get in front of Shang Wanyan to soak the horses, but honestly followed Shang Wanyan's carriage to eat ash and drink sand, which also surprised Xiao Erlang and other dogs.

"Lord Lu, Gege wants to ask you." Unexpectedly, Lu Daxian Ling, who was thinking about his thoughts, did not provoke Shang Wanxian, Shang Wanxian's personal maid was called Qiuyue, but poked her head out of the carriage window, beckoned to Lu Daxian Ling, and said, "Lord Lu, come to the window, Gege has something to ask you." ”

"Huh? The little girl finally can't help but feel her heart rippling? Lu Daxian Ling was overjoyed, quickly put down his thoughts, patted his horse forward, leaned in front of the window and asked, "County Lord Niangniang, what are your orders?" ”

Shang Wanzhen still had that cold look, sitting motionless in the carriage, just facing Lu Daxian Ling with a pretty side face, and asked coldly: "Who told you to follow me behind the carriage?" It seems that I have given Li Tianzhi an order that you are only allowed to follow behind my team and not to approach my carriage. ”

"Dead girl, you obviously want to find an excuse to talk to me, what kind of garlic are you pretending?" Lu Daxian Ling Tian smiled shamelessly in his heart, and replied with a smile on his face: "Back to the county lord's mother, it was General Li who asked the subordinate to follow behind your carriage, General Li said, the people of Chaozhou Mansion are not happy, thieves are rampant, I am afraid that some thieves will suddenly break out on the road and frighten the county lord, so I let the little one follow behind your carriage, ready to protect you at any time." ”

"Who are you fooling?" Shang Wanyan suddenly sneered and said, "Who is Master Fu Honglie, the prefect of Chaozhou, I don't know yet?" He is the most famous Fu Qingtian in Guangdong, loves the people like a son, judges cases like a god, governs Chaozhou so that he does not close his door at night, and the road is not forgotten, and the people of Chaozhou do not know how many families give him an immortal tablet, and the thieves under his rule are rampant, and the people are not happy? ”

"Yes, yes, yes." Lu Daxian also knew that Fu Honglie's official reputation in Guangdong was very good, so he hurriedly echoed: "What the county lord said is that after the lower officials return to Qujing in the future, they must learn from Master Fu and govern Qujing County at night. Please rest assured, the lower officials will do what you tell you. ”

"How you govern Qujing is your business, it has nothing to do with me, and I didn't tell you what to do." Shang Wanyan twisted her face away and said, "I just asked you to stay away from me, I don't want to see you." ”

"Why?" Lu Daxian, who had no good intentions, cried and mourned.

"I hate fat people." Shang Wanyan replied coldly, and the curtains of the carriage window were quickly lowered by the maid.

"Am I really that fat and jealous?" Lu Da Fat thought aggrievedly, "I'm less than two hundred pounds, in the twenty-first century, I should still be a handsome, dashing and slender handsome guy, right?" At the very least, I'm better than the fat fifth-rate writer in the 21st century who calls himself Wu Lao Wolf and smokes two packs of inferior cigarettes all day long, right? ”
