Chapter 388: Envy and Might
After making up their minds, Han, Yang and the others walked all the way quickly, and arrived at Shanhaiguan before nightfall the next day. Han Fu was apprehensive, and he couldn't care about the fatigue of the journey, so he inquired about Qincha's residence, and even went to the door to see him.
When he arrived at Qinchaxingyuan, he only looked at it, Han Fu's heart was a chill, and the guards were Jiang Bin's subordinates, and he was also an old soldier from Jiangmen, how could he not see the toughness of these people? Thinking of Xie Hong's reputation as a plague god, he couldn't help but feel a little more dignified in his heart.
"A few brothers, the last general is Han Fu, the general of Liaodong, on the order of Lord Qincha, come to visit, please make it convenient for a few people, and pass it on?" Han Fu also didn't care about the difference in identity, and also used humility and honorifics for a few soldiers, and handed over a few ingots of silver by the way.
It's not that he doesn't respect his identity, it's just that he missed the deadline set by Xie Hong, although the deadline itself is a bit unreasonable, how can he rush from Liaodong Dusi to Shanhaiguan in three days? But in the face of the plague god, how dare Han Fu care about this? And now it's night, and if you disturb rashly, eighty percent of you want to eat closed-door soup.
I have never been a civil official, but I have always heard of those people's style, and after entering the night, there are many programs, especially that Hou Ye is a newlywed Yan'er...... Han Fu thought in his heart that it would be inevitable to be turned away, but at least he had to spread the word that he had come, and he would strengthen his impression first.
"It turned out to be Mr. Han, please wait, and let the standard go down to pass it on." The guard was also very talkative, nodded, and sent one person in to report.
The other party was easy to talk to, but Han Fu's heart was even more bottomless, because several guards had no expression on their faces, and the silver he handed out was also refused.
Don't charge money and pay it back? How can there be such a truth in this world? Especially when this incident happened in the mansion of a powerful man like Xie Hong, Han Fu really had to worry! Could it be that the plague god wants to settle accounts with himself overnight?
Fines? Dismissal? Still is...... Terrifying thoughts swirled in his mind, and Han Fu even began to wonder if his light move was a little too hasty. If it is in Liaodong, it is its own territory, and if the other party's disposal is too much, at least it can resist stubbornly, but now, it seems that it can only be slaughtered by others.
"Mr. Han, Master Hou, please go in and talk." After a while, the guard who had passed the word turned back and stretched out his hand to invite Han Fu and the others inside.
Looking at the gate of the black hole, Han Fu really had some drums in his heart, but when he was dying, he had no chance to regret it, so he greeted Yang Haoran, and then followed behind the guards.
Of course, he won't mention those personal soldiers in his own family, if Xie Hong is really in trouble, it is useless to bring his own soldiers, but it has aroused the vigilance of the other party, which can only be said to be worth the loss.
"Brother Han, our own soldiers have been taken away!" Han Fu had something in his heart, and he didn't pay much attention to it, but Yang Haoran didn't have so much thought, and when he looked around, he suddenly found that there was also a change at the door, and a guard led the soldiers in another direction.
"It seems that today is more auspicious and less wow!" Han Fu was already a little surprised, and when he saw this, his heart sank even more, and he scolded Chen Shiliang in his heart, if it wasn't for this poor acid blocking his own trip, he would have had a chance to rush to Shanhaiguan as scheduled, if he really died here, he wouldn't let that guy go.
"It's not that serious, is it?" Han Fu's face suddenly turned to ashes, and Yang Haoran was taken aback, "Brother Han, don't you see that guard is quite polite?" What's more, when we come to the door at this hour, Lord Qincha still receives us, so he should attach great importance to us, right? ”
"Brother Yang, your surname is straightforward, how do you know the twists and turns in the hearts of those scholars! Alas, it's the eldest brother who is not thoughtful, but even you are harmed. Han Fu sighed in frustration.
"Two adults, Master Hou is inside, please enter by yourself, and it will be sent here under the mark." Before Yang Haoran could say anything more, the guards leading the way suddenly stopped, apparently on the ground.
Han and Yang looked up, but saw that it was a flower hall, which was brightly lit, and there seemed to be a sound of conversation, but there was no murderous spirit, and their hearts were slightly relaxed. The two glanced at each other, pondering whether this was a blessing or a curse, and they couldn't avoid it, and after a slight hesitation, they definitely stepped inside.
"Hehehe, General Wen is really worthy of being a general, the military affairs are indeed skilled, and he has the demeanor of a famous general.
"The last general's little insight, where can he afford the praise of the Hou Ye, the Hou Ye will not give up, and ask from time to time, but let the last general be more inspired and make great progress."
Entering the living room, the scene that caught the eye was beyond the expectations of the two of them.
I saw a handsome young man sitting on the main seat, although he was smiling and smiling in his words, but his gestures were full of majesty, obviously the legendary plague god Xie Hong. And the one sitting on the left guest seat, both of them also know each other, and it is clearly the general soldier of Jizhen who is gentle.
Isn't the plague god revenge? How did these two get along so well? If you don't know the past, just look at the scene in front of you, and then listen to the answers between the two, I'm afraid you will think that these two people are friends who have been friends for many years, right?
Are you dreaming? Han Fu began to faint, completely unaware of his current situation.
"This is Chief Han from Liaozhen, right? Although Ben Hou is in the Beijing Division, he has also heard of the name for a long time, long admiration, long admiration, although this is the ......" guard who led the way, although he did not follow up, but someone also spread the arrival of Han Yang and the others, and the young man was not surprised to see the two entering, but he got up with a smile and greeted him.
He was so polite, but he bluffed Han Fu, what he saw in front of him was too different from what he expected, which made him a little at a loss, and in a hurry, he directly knelt down and hugged his fists and saluted, saying: "I was summoned by the Hou Ye, but the last general was late, and the crime deserved to die, and I really didn't deserve the courtesy of the Hou Ye." ”
Yang Haoran was only Han Fu's first sight, and when he saw this, he also followed the salute at the moment, and after reporting to his home, he immediately confessed his guilt again and again.
The young man was still smiling, waved his hand and said: "Eh, Ben Hou has never been to Liaodong, I don't know the long distance, I call each other rashly, but it is Ben Hou's no, I hope the two of you don't see strangers." ”
After that, the others had already come closer, and while stretching out their hands to help each other, they said: "The two of you have worked hard from afar, and they must have not eaten yet, and it just so happens that Ben Hou has not eaten dinner yet, if you don't dislike it, how about you please have a banquet with Ben Hou and General Wen Bing?" ”
Han Fu's mind was quick, although his thinking was a little confused, he could deal with it decently, and when he saw Qin Cha reaching out to help him, he immediately stood up on his own, and his mouth was full of thanks.
But Yang Haoran was a straightforward surname, until he was held on his arm, he was shocked, and when he got up, he almost bumped into Qincha, and when he saw that something went wrong, his face was also red, for fear of annoying the other party and causing a big deal.
"Don't do it, don't worry about it, the most respected and brave man in Benhou's life, the two generals are here in Benhou, don't need to be polite, just take the surname and do it. General Wen, you should be familiar with the two generals, you might as well explain one or two for Ben Hou, so as not to make the two generals uneasy. ”
"General Han, General Yang, Master Hou is a person with a surname, you don't need to be suspicious, you don't need to be formalized here, just talk with peace of mind." Gentle can understand the mood of Han and Yang.
When he first arrived, he was also panicked, for fear that Xie Hong would settle the account, but he didn't expect that after seeing him, the other party was very polite, and his attitude towards himself was enough to be called familiar.
If it weren't for Wen Wen to mention it, the other party didn't mention Wu Yu's matter at all, as if that incident had never happened at all, and when Wen Wen mentioned it, he also said very generously that the crime was not as good as his family, and since Wu Yu had been ambushed, his family would not pursue it.
And most of the topics that the two of them talked about were the customs of Jizhen, the roads, rivers and the deployment of the army, which did not involve the court at all, and there was no intention of pursuing it.
Mildness was also suspicious at first, but later, it was calm. No matter what the other party's purpose is, a kind attitude is always better than a thunderbolt, if the other party wants to win over himself, then he might as well be false and wronged, and it is true that he has the difficulties in front of him.
Although he did not mean to take refuge completely, but the things that the two talked about were gentle and had no reservations, his family history was long, and he had been in the border town for a long time, so he had a lot of opinions on Xie Hong's problems, so these few words can be regarded as a very happy conversation. At this time, seeing Han Fu coming, he also felt the same way, so he also echoed Xie Hong and relieved the two.
With gentle words as footnotes, Han Fu's heart was also a lot more relaxed. The books he read were not as gentle, but in terms of heart-to-heart, he was no worse than gentleness, and after the banquet was opened, he became more and more determined, and felt that Xie Hong was trying to win them over.
Liwei first, and then wooing, with Xie Hong's age, it is quite good to be able to think of such a strategy, but just because of this, it is impossible to let yourself die.
Through various channels, Han Fu also knows some of the situation in the court, the benefits of taking refuge in Xie Hong are not small, but the risks are also great, in the face of such an opponent, if he is not careful, he will put his net worth and surname into it, of course he will not make a rash decision.
What's more, he has now become an official to the general army, guarding one side, and has reached the peak of the Ming generals, and if he wants to rise, he can only look forward to adding a knighthood. But how can the title of a military general be so easy to get? That's to be exchanged for military merit!
If you want military merit, you can only deal with the Tartars in the north, but the Tartars have plagued the Central Plains for more than 100 years, and after the founding of the Ming Dynasty, many northern expeditions have not been completely eliminated, so how can it be easy to deal with? With the strength of Liaozhen, it would be good to be able to hold on, but if the other party commits a big attack, I am afraid that it may not be able to hold it, what kind of contribution can we talk about?
That Xie Hongguan worshiped the governor, the marquis champion, and the people who consulted Wen Wen were also military affairs, presumably he also had the intention of military merits, if he took refuge in him, the marquis would have some hope.
However, at the thought of dealing with the Tartars and the scholars in the court, Han Fu's heart immediately cooled in half. Compared with these, he is still a peaceful soldier.
Whether it's the governor or the patrol, Lao Tzu is an attitude, false and wronged, if you want to let yourself completely surrender, don't think about it!
He had the same thoughts as Wen Zhuan, with a smile on his face and beautiful words. On the contrary, Yang Haoran didn't have any thoughts, stuffed his head, took a sip of a glass of wine, a bite of a piece of meat, and ate and drank very happily, the hard work of this road was not fake, and it was the most important thing for him to be able to put down his mind and eat a good meal of wine and meat.
Han Fu and Wen Wen both knew his surname, and they didn't pay attention to it, but the young man swept his eyes from time to time, and a meaningful smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
