"Lu Yifeng! Dog thief! Dog thief! Thief! Thief! I won't kill you, I won't be a man! Swear not to be a man!! ”

Hysterical roaring and roaring, Xiao Mazi grabbed the four treasures of the study on the dragon case like he was crazy and smashed them around, and the angry roar could definitely be heard clearly even standing on the front gate building outside the Forbidden City. And below the dragon case, Xiao Mazi's henchmen trembled and pressed their foreheads to the ground, don't persuade them, they don't even dare to take a breath of air. Among them, the situation of Kong Sizhen and Xiong Cixu is naturally better, and Mingzhu, who has not had much contact with Lu Fatzi, is not very afraid, and Suo Etu, who is closest to Lu Fatzi, is miserable, from the moment when Zuo'an Men personally unveiled Lu Fatzi's evil face until now, the cold sweat on Suo Etu's body has not stopped, his underwear is wet and dry, dry and wet, and he is frightened all the time.

"Lu Yifeng, dog thief! Dog thief! I swear to kill you, swear that you will cut you with a thousand knives, and Ling Chi will be put to death! Dog thief! Thief! - Suo Etu! ”

Is it a blessing or a curse, it is a disaster that can't be avoided, roaring and roaring, Xiao Mazi finally remembered the most ideal punching bag, and shouted out Suo Etu's name. The super unlucky egg Suo Etu's body was shocked, and he had no choice but to kneel forward under the sympathetic gaze of Xiong Cixu, Kong Sizhen, and Mingzhu, kowtow and replied, "The slave is here." ”

"You say!" Xiao Mazi pointed to Suo's forehead and shouted: "Who vouched in front of me at the beginning, Lu Yifeng, that dog thief, is loyal to me, worthy of reuse, and can be entrusted with important tasks?" Who said in front of me that Lu Yifeng's dog thief was a rare loyal and capable minister in the Qing Dynasty, who could give him enough trust to let him do a great job in Guizhou, Yunnan, and persuaded me to hand over the Qujing Green Camp to him?! Say, "Who said these things?" ”

"Have I ever said these things? I know Lu Yifeng's dog thief, didn't the emperor order me to take the initiative to contact him? Suo Etu complained bitterly in his heart, but he didn't dare to argue with Xiao Mazi, he just kowtowed desperately, and begged: "The slave deserves to die, and the slave deserves to die!" The slave was fooled, he fell into the big trap of the dog thief, misled the master, made a big mistake, the slave should die, damn, please spare the master, please spare the master. ”

"You should have died a long time ago!" Xiao Mazi yelled frantically, "Come on, take down Suo Etu, and hand it over to the Criminal Division for interrogation and conviction!" ”

"Master, spare your life!" Suo Etu roared in disarray. Fortunately, at this moment, the chief eunuch suddenly sounded outside the Heart Cultivation Palace, "The Empress Dowager Lafayette has arrived!" ”

"Grandson, what's wrong?" In the long cheers, the old witch of Xiaozhuang had already walked to the door of the Yangxin Palace with the support of Su Malagu and Li Yinzhen, and looked at the teacups, paper and pens and folds that fell all over the hall, the old witch of Xiaozhuang couldn't help but smile slightly, and asked: "Your Majesty, who is this who makes you angry?" How did you get so angry? ”

"Grandmother......." Xiao Mazi stepped forward and opened his mouth to scream, and when he wanted to continue talking, tears were already rolling down his face. Xiaozhuang smiled, stepped forward to hold Xiao Mazi in his arms, and comforted him softly: "Grandson, there is no need to say it, grandmother already knows, it doesn't matter, this can't be blamed on you, even your grandmother who has been through the storm for a long time was deceived by that fat man, not to mention you who are still young?" ”

"It doesn't matter, it's a trivial matter, now that his ugly face has been exposed, and Wu Sangui's old thief has also rebelled, when he goes to kill Wu Sangui in the future, he will catch Lu Yifeng back by the way, and cut it with a thousand knives, won't this evil breath come out? Okay, don't cry, you're not a kid now, don't let people see jokes. ”

Xiao Mazi nodded with tears in his eyes, and finally calmed down temporarily, but the hatred for Fat Lu in his heart not only did not disappear at all, but increased by three points - of course, Xiao Mazi will definitely find that his hatred for Fat Lu is increasing in the future, and this is just the beginning.

"Alright, let's put Suo Etu away." Xiaozhuang turned his gaze to Suo Etu, who had been held down by Li Xu and Cao Yin, and said lightly: "This matter has little to do with him, but it is not completely without guilt. Your Majesty, what do you think? ”

Of course, Xiao Mazi also knew that Suo Etu was actually very wronged, and now Xiaozhuang opened his mouth to intercede for him again, so he naturally had to nod and agree, Suo Etu was amnesty, and quickly kowtowed and thanked him, "Thank you for your kindness, thank you for your kindness, thank you for your kindness, thank you for your kindness, thank you for your empress dowager Lafayette's ......." ”

"Alright, you can get up too." Xiaozhuang instructed: "Go out first, the mourning family has something to say to your emperor alone." Suo Etu agreed with Mingzhu and the others, and hurriedly bowed out of the Heart Cultivation Palace, leaving space for Xiaozhuang and Xiao Mazi's ancestors to talk separately.

"Your Majesty, come, sit here." Xiaozhuang first pulled Xiao Mazi to the side and sat down side by side with him, and then asked in a low voice: "Grandson, outside Zuo'anmen today, after Ao Bai reported to you the news that Wu Sangui's old thief had rebelled, did he report to you the counterinsurgency strategy?" ”

"Nope." Xiao Mazi shook his head and said hatefully: "That old thing, I just arrested Wu Yingxiong, and I was about to discuss with him how to quell the rebellion, but he didn't even say hello, and directly led his fox friends and dog party to leave first, and didn't take me seriously at all." ”

"Sure enough, it's his style." Xiaozhuang didn't get angry, but smiled lightly, and said in a low voice: "If nothing else, Ao Bai put down Wu Sangui's old thief rebellion this time, and he doesn't plan to let the emperor interfere, whether it is to transfer troops or select generals, he plans to act arbitrarily, and he doesn't want to listen to your opinion." ”

Xiao Mazi nodded, deeply sympathetic to Xiaozhuang's judgment, Xiaozhuang lowered his voice and said: "Grandson, since Aobai doesn't plan to let you meddle in this matter, then you don't want to interfere, you have to follow him temporarily, all his requests about this counterinsurgency war, you have to follow them one by one, and you must not be in order to install private and momentary will, in this sensitive and his general knowledge." In addition, you can also make another decree to marry your sister Duan Min to Aobai's grandson Dafu, and by the way, Dafu will be given a prominent official position. ”

"It's nothing to marry Duan Min to Dafoe." Xiao Mazi hesitated a little and said in a low voice: "But Sun Er speculates that this time to quell Wu Sangui's old thief rebellion, at least half of the Qing Dynasty's army, financial and material resources must be used, and everything is arranged according to Aobai, so what if he takes the opportunity to expand his power, eliminate dissidents and install cronies to control the army?" At that time, Ao Baike will be even bigger than Wu Sangui. ”

"You're wrong." Xiaozhuang shook his head and said with a smile: "Aobai is never ambiguous in military affairs, and will never appoint private individuals for personal gain. In order to win the war, he must use some generals who can fight well, regardless of the position of these generals, so you can rest assured that he will not exclude dissidents, on the contrary, he will be more assured to boldly appoint the generals of the Eight Banners loyal to you, and lay a good foundation for your future! ”

"However, at this sensitive moment, if you forcibly interfere with the selection of generals, you may arouse the disgust of this stubborn old man, exclude your people, and even refuse to go out in person, and send others to lead the army, so that we can steal chickens and rice. You must seize the weakness of this stubborn old man's thin skin and dark heart, chase him and beat him hard, and get him out of the capital, so that you can let go of the power, control the capital, and induce or force Ao Bai to invite himself to guard Yungui, so as to achieve the ultimate goal of driving the tiger and devouring the wolf and then breaking it down! ”

Xiao Mazi began to be tempted, but after careful consideration, Xiao Mazi still said with some worry: "Grandmother, if Ao Bai leads the troops outside, he has a conflict with us again, and he wants to lead the troops back to the capital, and then the elite main force is all in his hands, so what?" ”

"Silly boy, do you think Wu Sangui's old thief is so easy to exterminate? If Ao Bai fights him to the death, there will be no casualties at all? Xiaozhuang smiled and said: "Besides, Yunnan and Guizhou provinces are notoriously poor provinces, food can not be self-sufficient at all, all rely on the Central Plains to help, as long as Ao Bai into Yunnan and Guizhou, we control Huguang and Jiangnan grain production areas, and then an edict canonized Ao Bai as the king of Yunnan and Guizhou, passed down from generation to generation, Ao Bai soldiers out of the nameless, no reinforcements outside, no food and salary inside, how much wind and waves can be stirred?" ”

Although Xiaozhuang's hand is to make Aobai become Wu Sangui, it is still a great thing for Xiao Mazi to drive Aobai out of the capital and take charge of the world alone. At the same time, if this is not done, Ao Bai will continue to be in power in the center of the capital, and Xiao Mazi will only have one way to use his age to boil Ao Bai to death, and after Ao Bai's son continues to be in power, no one can say whether he will be as stupid as Ao Bai and refuse to usurp the throne or do Huo Guang's things. So after thinking about it for a long time, Xiao Mazi gritted his teeth and replied: "Grandson will give an order and give full authority to Aobai to pacify the rebellion in the southwest." ”

"Very good, you have to endure for a while to be able to do things for a hundred years, grandson, you finally understand this truth." Xiaozhuang clapped his hands and said, "Wu Yingxiong, the proton of Wu Sangui's old thief, grandson, you have already made up your mind to arrest him, right?" ”

"Got it." Xiao Mazi nodded, and said angrily: "But I don't know how, when Sun Er sent someone to arrest Wu Yingxiong's two sons, Wu Shifan, the eldest grandson of Wu Sangui's old thief, disappeared, and only Wu Shilin, the youngest grandson of Wu Sangui's old thief, was caught. ”

"Then hurry up and make an order to arrest it, this will Wu Sangui's old thief ask for the Qingjun side has not been sent to the capital, even if he sends someone to save Wu Yingxiong's father and son in advance, Wu Shifan will definitely not go far, and there is still a chance to capture him alive." Xiaozhuang nodded, and then ordered: "As for Wu Yingxiong and Wu Shilin, they are both fish and meat on the anvil anyway, so there is no need to rush to kill their father and son, and when the battle situation is clear, maybe this father and son can still come in handy." ”

Xiao Mazi nodded again in agreement, and when he stood up again, Xiao Mazi stared at the floating algae on the top of the Heart Nourishing Hall for a long time, and only after a long time did he say viciously in his heart: "Wait and see, Wu Sangui old thief!" Wait to knock, worship the old thief! And Lu Yifeng's dog thief, you also wait for me-! ”

………………

When Xiao Mazi's holy decree was sent to Aobai's mansion to be read, Aobai knelt down to accept the decree in a decent manner, and after listening to Xiao Mazi's military actions to quell the rebellion in the southwest to himself, Aobai also showed some surprise, and couldn't help but say to his henchman Ban Bushan: "This little emperor of Mazi still has such courage and belly, he is not afraid that I will make trouble after controlling the army?" ”

"If nothing else, this trick should have been taught to him by the Empress Dowager." Bambulshan smiled bitterly and said: "They are sure of Enxiang's loyalty to the Qing court, and they will never only take care of our own people in terms of dispatching troops and selecting generals, but will only appoint them on the basis of merit, and will not consider their origin and party, so they pretend to be generous and simply sell a big favor to Enxiang." At the same time, it can also avoid angering Eun Xiang, causing Eun Xiang to refuse to go out in person, and miss the major event of taking the opportunity to take back the power of the court. ”

Ao Bai was silent, and said for a long time: "Let's do this first, wait until the old thief of Wu Sangui is eliminated, and then solve the two troubles of Shang Kexi and Geng Jingzhong, the Qing Dynasty will unify the world, and the old man will learn from Guo Ziyi and repay the great kindness of the emperor." ”

"Enxiang wants to be Guo Ziyi, but our emperor, will he be the Tang Dynasty Sect?" Bambulshan asked with a wry smile.

"Alright, let's talk about that later." Ao Bai waved his hand painfully, changed the topic and said: "The most important thing for the first time is to solve the trouble of Wu Sangui, this old thing is not easy to deal with, if you take it lightly, you may suffer a big loss." ”

"Obedience." Bambur had no choice but to agree, and continued his previous words, handed a list to Aobai, and said respectfully: "Enxiang, this is the list of generals selected by the lower officials according to your instructions and careful discussion and discussion. ”

Ao Bai took the list and looked at it carefully, and saw that the first two names were Shuncheng County King Leerjin and Prince An Yue Le, in addition to Labu, Jieshu and Shang Shan and other mite Qing princes Baylor, and the middle-level generals were mostly yellow flag generals directly controlled by Aobai, Ao Bai suddenly understood that his lackeys must be fighting with Xiao Mazi's cronies and the idea of actually controlling the army - although Xiao Mazi's cronies and Mites Qing princes are in prominent positions, the middle-level generals do not listen to them at all, and no matter how prominent their positions are, they cannot command them.

"What kind of fame?" Ao Bai angrily threw the list back in front of Ban Bushan, and said angrily: "To quell the rebellion of Wu Sangui, the Eight Banners of the Qing Dynasty need to be united and united. Redraft, drive out all those useless generals with yellow flags! Especially straw bales like Qiude, who don't even dare to run fast on horseback, erase them all! ”

"Obedience." Bamburshan silently picked up the list. Ao Bai shouted again: "Add the names of Wang Jinbao, Zhao Liangdong, Lin Xingzhu, Mu Zhan and Laita, these are the brave generals who can be relied on on the battlefield!" ”

"Enxiang, Wang Jinbao and Zhao Liangdong, these Han minions, forget it, Mu Zhan is the positive yellow flag, and Laita is the positive white flag." Bamburshan asked tentatively: "For the sake of the enclosure, we have a grudge against the yellow flag and the white flag, and we reuse these two ....... ”

"What I want is a reliable general on the battlefield, not a straw bag who can only be obedient and pat on the back!" Ao Bai replied coldly: "When the Qing army captured Yungui and the battle of Yuanjiang, Mu Zhan led 300 people to forcibly cross the river, beheaded the barbarian Tusi, made the first contribution, was familiar with the terrain, climate and customs of Yunnan and Guizhou, and fought Wu Sangui, who did not use such a general?" ”

As for Lai Ta (the first person in the history of the three feudatories to invade Yunnan in the rebellion), although he has a grudge against the old man's yellow flag in the Zhengbai flag, but he has been fighting Li Zicheng for more than 20 years now, and he will inevitably compete for the first place in every battle, from Shaanxi to Huguang, without a defeat. After the death of the first emperor, Li Zicheng's nephew Li Laiheng rebelled in Maolu Mountain, others fought for three years and did not fight down, it was he who led the brave warriors to go up the mountain at night from the back mountain trail, and suddenly entered Li Laiheng's Dayan, so that Li Laiheng was completely wiped out. Such a fierce general and wise general, the old man doesn't care what flag he is! ”

"Obedience." Bambulshan agreed dejectedly, and was about to put pen to paper, when Ao Bai suddenly shouted again: "Wait, one more person, Mulima, the commander of the Nine Gates, has been on the battlefield for a long time, has suppressed thieves in the mountains many times, and is familiar with mountain warfare, this time to kill Wu Sangui's old thief, he can serve as my deputy!" ”

"Eun Xiang, General Mulima must not leave the capital!" Bamburshan was shocked, quickly knelt down on his knees, kowtowed, and said: "Enxiang, whoever you use as your deputy, you don't dare to oppose it, but you must not use General Mulima!" Why didn't the emperor dare to poison you in the eighth year of Kangxi, it was because General Mulima held the power of the nine gates of military power, and the emperor threw himself into a rat trap! Now that you are about to go on an expedition, the military power of the nine gates of the capital will fall into the hands of outsiders again, and the consequences will be unimaginable! ”

Ao Bai didn't speak with a straight face, Bamburshan was even more anxious, and finally simply knelt in front of Ao Bai, hugged Ao Bai's legs and cried, "Enxiang, I know that you are loyal to the court and the Qing Dynasty, and you are even more sincere to the emperor, but people don't hurt the tiger, and the tiger is harmful to people's hearts!" Nine Gates of Military Power, Youguan Enxiang is full of your surname, don't entrust others! Enxiang, I beg you......! ”

Crying and shouting, Bambulshan held Aobai's legs and shook them desperately, until tears wet Aobai's trousers, Aobai sighed and said, "Master Ban, get up, this old man is up to you." Mulima, you don't have to go with me on the expedition, I still want you to stay in the capital and help him a little, what do you think? ”

"Eun Xiang, when you go on this expedition, you should have followed Eun Xiang and served with all your heart." Bambulshan wiped his tears and said: "However, although General Mulima is more than loyal to Eun Xiang, he is reckless and greedy for mistakes, leaving him in the capital, and it is difficult for Eun Xiang to go on the expedition with confidence. Therefore, this time, I felt that I could only be ashamed of Enxiang's kindness, stay in the capital to assist General Mulima, guard the capital for Enxiang, and wait for Enxiang to return to the division in triumph. ”

"That's fine, with you helping Mulima in the capital, I can rest assured outside." Ao Bai sighed, picked up Bambulshan and said: "After the old man leaves Beijing, you have to take care of Mulima more, beat him when he should beat, scold when he should scold, I will leave my horse whip to you, if he doesn't listen to you, you will give me a hard whip, forgive him and dare not disobey you." ”

"Please rest assured, as long as Bamburshan is still breathing, the capital will never make any mistakes." Bambul choked up and agreed, and said: "Enxiang, I still want to ask you for something, the military department is full of Han and Han Shangshu, only Manshang Shu Kachuha is Enxiang's person, Han Shangshu Zhu Zhibi is the emperor's party, when it comes to Enxiang's fierce battle, I am afraid that I will deliberately hinder Enxiang and drag Enxiang back, and I hope that Enxiang will deal with it as soon as possible to eliminate future troubles." ”

"Your worries are still somewhat justified." Ao Bai nodded - the military department is in charge of military and political strategy, and Ao Bai is also afraid that Zhu Zhibi, the lackey of Xiao Mazi, will make a fool of himself in the supply of weapons, grain and grass, and pull his own hind legs. After a little calculation, Ao Bai quickly said: "Let's change Wang Xu to be the Han Shangshu of the military department, although this Wang Xu does not deal with the old man, but he is not ambiguous in major matters, and he never does things like chickens and dogs, and he is a suitable person." ”

"What Enxiang said is extremely true, and he also thinks that Wang Xu is quite suitable." Bamburshan nodded and said: "Although Wang Xu is not dealing with us, but with his surname, in this kind of important matter related to the Qing Dynasty, the emperor is forcing him to drag your hind legs with a knife, and he will definitely not push his head back." ”

"So be it." Ao Bai sighed, frowned again, and said: "But I still think that there is one less experienced assistant, although Le Erjin and Yue Le have also fought a few battles and performed quite well, but the experience is still too little, whether they can be relied on at the critical moment, I really can't say ...... now." ”

"Hey, how did I forget him?" Speaking of this, Ao Bai suddenly remembered something and hurriedly asked, "By the way, is Tuhai dead now?" What exactly is his crime, and why has he never heard of his case being tried? ”

"He shouldn't be dead, at least there is no news of his death from the prison." Bamburshan replied hesitantly, and asked curiously, "Eun Xiang, do you want Tu Hai to be your deputy?" ”

"Of course." Ao Bai admitted frankly and said: "Tuhai has always been Mulima's deputy back then, and many of Mulima's tactics are actually based on his ideas and are a material that can be made. ”

"Then the lowly sent someone to inquire? Let's see if he's dead? Bamburshan asked.

"Go ahead, by the way, ask him what the crime is, why the emperor has not come up with a decent charge after putting him in prison." Ao Bai replied.

Upon closer inspection, it turned out that Tuhai was really not dead - but he was tortured to the point that he only had half a life left. As for why Xiao Mazi hasn't slaughtered Tu Hai yet, it's because Tu Hai's case is a secret related to Shunzhi's monks, Xiao Mazi didn't find out how Tu Hai spied on this secret, and if he didn't find out how Tu Hai knew this secret, he really didn't dare to be completely relieved, so he didn't kill Tu Hai in a hurry, but just continued to torture and torture Tu Hai to confess his crimes and his comrades, and Tu Hai was wronged, and he refused to take on the felony of trying to kill the emperor to exterminate the nine clans. I have never bent into a move, so I have survived until now.

found that Tuhai was still alive, Ao Bai had to ask Xiao Mazi for someone, and asked Tu Hai what crime he had committed, and Xiao Mazi hesitated for a long time, and finally found that something was wrong - if Tu Hai really confided in Ao Bai the whereabouts of his monk's father, why didn't Ao Bai still understand what crime Tu Hai had committed? So after repeated calculations, with the acquiescence of Xiaozhuang, Xiao Mazi finally confided the truth to Aobai, and under the confrontation of the evidence, the truth was naturally revealed immediately, and the result was also natural............

In the nearly ten years since Xiao Mazi ascended the throne, Xiao Mazi and Ao Bai finally said in unison, "Lu Yifeng!" Dog thief! Thief! Shameless thief-! ”、

"Lu Yifeng! Dog thief! Thief! Shameless thief! ”

The loudest scolding was, of course, the Tuhaitu University scholar, who had been innocently imprisoned for three years and tortured for three years. After understanding the general course of the matter, the scholar roared hysterically with tears in his eyes and scolded angrily, "Did Lao Tzu dig up your ancestral grave or annihilate your sister-in-law, you actually used such a shameless method to frame Lao Tzu?!" Do you know that you not only caused Lao Tzu to sit in prison for three years, but also caused Lao Tzu's family to be ruined, his wife to throw himself into the water, and his son to starve to death! The daughter went to Ningguta to be enslaved by the armored people, and was ruined by those Qiu Basheng for three years! Three years! ”

(To be continued)
