(PS: The second more sent, ask for collection and recommendation.) ）

Seeing that Feng Xiang's mouth was wide enough to stuff three eggs, Liu Xuanchu smiled even more happily, and his tone became more and more gentle, "After coming to this conclusion, the old man decided that you and the old man are upright men of the Han family with common ideals, common ambitions, and integrity!" So the old man immediately made up his mind that he must persuade the prince to reuse it for you, and at the same time, the old man made up his mind that he must persuade the prince not to reuse it for you now! ”

"Senior, are you too arbitrary?" Feng Xiang tried to calm his mood and asked solemnly: "Senior, aren't you afraid that the younger generation is really the eyeliner sent by the imperial court?" Or is it a two-faced villain who deceived the trust of the prince and the old-timers with clever words, and sold the prince and the old-timers to the court as soon as he turned around? ”

"If you are such a person, then you don't dare to offer a thief's self-respecting plan to the prince." Liu Xuanchu said calmly: "Now that Kangxi Xiao Mazi is getting older, the contradiction with the bearded man is becoming more acute, if the prince is really determined to raise thieves and respect himself, even if the court on the verge of civil strife knows the prince's intentions, it can only obediently obey." In this case, even if you are an insider in the court or a two-faced villain, you plan to rely on deceiving the trust of the prince and the old man, and are ready to betray the prince and the old man in exchange for glory and wealth, then with your self-respecting plan as a thief, whether it is Ao Dabeard or Kang Xiaomazi, I can't spare you! It is precisely because of this that the prince did not kill you, because the prince knew that it was impossible for you to betray him! ”

"With such serious consequences?" Feng Xiang was taken aback in his heart, only then did he realize that the self-respecting plan he offered to Wu Sangui today was actually a letter of surrender to tie up Wu Sangui's thief ship, and if he wanted to get off the boat, it was no longer a matter of saying that he could get off the boat. Over there, Liu Xuanchu observed his words, vaguely guessed Feng Xiang's thoughts, and said with a smile: "Lord Lu, whether you have considered this dangerous consequence in advance or not, but if you want to regret it now, it is too late." But you can also rest assured, as long as you are loyal to the prince, the prince will never treat you badly, the prince is not Zhu Yuanzhang, nor Liu Bang, and he will not hide all the birds and hide the rabbit and the dog. This point, the old man himself is proof. ”

After being silent for a long time, Feng Xiang finally asked, "Senior, since you have understood the aspirations of the juniors, why do you want to stop the second prince from reusing the juniors?" Could it be that the old-timers want the younger generations to work directly for the prince? ”

"Wrong, and very wrong." Liu Xuanchu shook his head and said slowly: "Master Lu, the old man is not to let you directly serve the prince or the old man, but to save your life, so as to prevent the second prince from reusing you." Do you understand that? ”

"The old-timers want to save the lives of the juniors?" Feng Xiang was even more confused. Liu Xuanchu said quietly: "Lord Lu, you are very smart, you can analyze the situation and mind of the prince from several palace reports published by the imperial court, and you can indeed be regarded as a natural talent. But, Lord Lu, do you know that you have those two Achilles' heels? If you don't correct these two weaknesses, then no matter where you go or what you do, you won't be able to make a big difference! ”

"Please ask the seniors to teach, and the younger generations will listen to you." Feng Xiang put away the young man, and asked Liu Xuanchu for advice respectfully. Liu Xuanchu didn't answer, just picked up the room and smoked on the table, but he didn't come to the table to light the fire, just held the cigarette holder and refused to speak. Feng Xiangleng took a long time to react, hurriedly took down the candle lamp on the table, and personally lit the dry tobacco for Liu Xuanchu, Liu Xuanchu nodded with satisfaction, and suddenly said: "Lord Lu, your two fatal shortcomings, one is that you are too bold, so big that it is boundless!" The second is that the city is too shallow, so shallow that people can see through you at a glance! You can't change these two shortcomings, not only can't you become a big tool, but you may also have a surname at any time! ”

"The juniors ask the seniors for detailed guidance." Feng Xiang lowered his hand and asked. Liu Xuanchu said calmly: "Master Lu, tell me yourself, how many times have you been spinning around the ghost gate today?" For the first time, you, a Western election official who was promoted by bribing the second prince, dared to directly point out that the prince's heart disease was in the imperial court, if it wasn't for the old man who happened to dissect this for the prince last night, the prince had already realized his decision-making mistake, and the prince would have killed you at that time! The second time, in order to help the old man, you even publicly satirized Wang Shirong, a popular man in front of the prince, but he was just a straw bag, and Wang Shirong's careful eyes could still tolerate you? The third time is more dangerous, since ancient times, it is a taboo in the world to make shallow words, you are a sesame mung bean big seven-pin county order, a new official who has just entered the official career, before gaining the trust of the prince and finding out the temper of the prince's surname, you even dare to offer the prince a self-respecting plan to raise thieves and confront the court? Aren't you afraid that the prince will kill you, and you're not afraid that the wind will leak and the court will destroy you? ”

As soon as Liu Xuanchu said this, Feng Xiang's body trembled, and the sweat on his face began to roll down. Liu Xuanchu took another puff of dry cigarette, and then said: "As for your city government, don't say it-you take the risk of pointing out the prince's heart disease, I'm afraid even a three-year-old child can see that you are gambling with your head; And when the old man prevented the second prince from reusing you, the disappointed expression on your face could even be seen by the blind. But you are lucky, you happened to meet the old man, and tried your best to maneuver in front of the prince, otherwise, Lord Lu, you ask yourself, do you still have the opportunity to stand here and listen to the old man's nagging? Also, ask yourself, if the old man didn't stop the second prince from reusing you at that time, and you continued to be so outspoken and open-mouthed under the second prince, and continued to be so unscrupulous, you can say whatever you want, tell me yourself, how long can you live? ”

"The younger generation thanks the seniors for saving their lives." Feng Xiang knelt down on his knees with a thud and kowtowed to Liu Xuanchu again and again. Feng Xiang really obeyed Liu Xuanchu this time, and for the first time, he realized how dangerous his bold and adventurous surname was in this turbulent and turbulent world, and he realized that if he didn't correct these two shortcomings, then not to mention that he could take the opportunity of the rebellion of the three feudatories to overthrow the mites and expel the Tartars, that is, whether he could save his life was a big question.

"Don't thank me, thank yourself." Liu Xuanchu put down the dry smoking gun, stroked the top of Feng Xiang's head with his thin old hand, and said with a smile: "If it weren't for the fact that you used the Di newspaper to analyze the situation of the prince and convinced the old man, and later offered a thief to prove that you are not a rare talent who is helpless, and the old man is too lazy to take care of so many things." The old man is old, and half of his body has been buried in the ground, but the Tartars are still raging and poisoning in the land of our Han people, mutilating our Han people, the old man is in a hurry! Now that the old man can have one more like-minded companion and one more descendant with unlimited potential, why not do it? ”

After sighing, Liu Xuanchu suddenly stared into Feng Xiang's eyes and asked, "Master Lu, are you willing to worship the old man as a teacher?" There are too few advisers and assistants around the prince, although Wang Shirong is clever, he is too narrow-minded and has no room for people. Fang Guangchen and Liu Xin are more than loyal to the prince, but their ability is a little insufficient, and their ambition is not even as good as Wang Shirong and Xia Guoxiang! The old man's biggest wish now is to train an old man's successor for the prince before he breathes, so that the old man can rest assured that even if he is under the Nine Springs, he can rest assured. Master Lu, you have this potential, and the old man is optimistic about you. ”

"The teacher is above, please accept the student Lu Yifeng three times!" Feng Xiang did not hesitate, and immediately kowtowed three times to Liu Xuanchu, and his feelings were sincere. Liu Xuanchu laughed happily, first calmly accepted Feng Xiang's apprenticeship, and then picked Feng Xiang up, took out a book from his arms and handed it to Feng Xiang, and said with a smile: "Yifeng, I am busy with the affairs of the teacher, and it is difficult to take time out to teach you personally, but fortunately, you are extremely talented, and you don't need to worry too much about the teacher." This book is written by the teacher himself, and it is also the painstaking work of the teacher, and it is now taught to you, I hope you will study it carefully, and it will definitely be of great use in the future. ”

"Students will thank their teachers for their great kindness, and they will live up to their expectations and study the teacher's books with their hearts." Feng Xiang kowtowed, took the book of "Mao Yaoce Question Collection" from Liu Xuanchu's hands with both hands, kowtowed three more times, and said solemnly: "Please rest assured that the student will work hard to improve his self-cultivation and knowledge, fulfill the teacher's life wishes, expel the Tartars, and restore my China!" ”

"Very good, very good, I believe you will do this." Liu Xuanchu happily picked up Feng Xiang, and instructed: "The teacher is a close person around the King of Pingxi, and his reputation is too loud, and he is a person who has long been registered in the Tartar court, so you can't talk about me as a teacher now, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble." You know this matter, I know, I will inform the prince in secret. ”

"Student thanks for the teacher's guidance." Feng Xiang was very moved, and said that he didn't expect his adventure today, although he did not succeed in getting the opportunity to get close to the core of Wu Sangui Group, he found himself such a good master.

Seeing Feng Xiang's excited and inexplicable expression, Liu Xuanchu nodded, patted Feng Xiang's shoulder lovingly, and said kindly: "Yifeng, the teacher came to you today, in addition to wanting to accept you as an apprentice, there is one more thing to tell you." The teacher asked the prince for an errand for you today, so that when you rush to Yanjing to see your majesty, you can take a detour to Guangdong and do one thing for the prince. ”

"What does the teacher want students to do in Guangdong?" Feng Xiang asked curiously. Liu Xuanchu replied: "This year, the Tartars want to force the prince to cut his expenses and reduce the military salary expenditure of three million taels of silver a year in Yunnan and Guizhou provinces to two million taels, but the prince refuses to listen to my suggestion, and has already wiped out the anti-Qing forces in and around Yunnan and Guizhou provinces, and it is difficult to find a suitable excuse to refuse, and the situation is very embarrassing. In order to weaken the strength of the imperial court and enhance the strength of the prince, I gave the prince several ideas to confront the imperial court, one of which was to send people to Guangdong to persuade the king of Pingnan Shang Kexi to respond to the prince, and to the Tartar court, asking the Tartar court to increase the salary of Guangdong. ”

"But this kind of shooting a bird in the head, is it possible for Shang Kexi to agree?" Feng Xiang asked worriedly. Liu Xuanchu smiled and nodded, and replied: "The analysis is correct, Shang Kexi's promise may not have a big surname, and Shang Kexi has not been on good terms with the prince all his life, and it is impossible to offend the Tartar court for the sake of the prince, so the prince and the teacher do not have much expectations for this method." ”

Feng Xiang scratched his head, he really couldn't figure out what kind of medicine was sold in the gourd of his cheap teacher, knowing that it was not possible to persuade Shang Kexi to join forces with Wu Sangui to deal with the Manchu Tartars, so why did he send his own student to touch this nose and lose this face? But fortunately, Feng Xiang has an advantage in the history of later generations, after a roll of his eyes, Feng Xiang suddenly came to his senses and blurted out: "Teacher, do you want students to start with Shang Kexi's eldest son, Shang Zhixin?" The students heard that Shang Kexi was getting old, and the government and military affairs in Guangdong were actually in Shang Zhixin's hands. ”

"Clever!" Liu Xuanchu happily patted the top of Feng Xiang's head and said with a smile: "It is worthy of being a student who is optimistic about the teacher, and he can really understand it at one point!" To tell you the truth, judging from the situation in Guangdong controlled by the Pingxi Palace, Shang Zhixin not only actually controlled most of the forces in Guangdong, but also was very dissatisfied with Shang Kexi's position of loyalty to the Tatar court, and repeatedly suggested that Shang Kexi improve relations with the prince, and at the same time strengthen the contact with Geng Jimao, the king of Jingnan. The only hope is to fall on Shang Zhixin. ”

"That's good, the students must work hard to persuade Shang Zhixin to respond to the prince, so that the Tartar court can't find an excuse to cut Yungui's military salary." Feng Xiang agreed. Liu Xuanchu patted Feng Xiang's head again, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, after listening to the teacher, although Shang Zhixin is the object we can fight for, this kid is not simple, and the evil is not under his father Shang Kexi, and the possible surname of us persuading him to be this rising bird is not very big." Therefore, if you succeed in success, of course, it is the best, if you can't succeed, you have to be careful to protect your surname, keep your useful body, and only then will you have the opportunity to expel the Tartars and restore our China in the future. ”

"Thank you for your advice, and the students keep it in mind." Feng Xiang replied respectfully. Liu Xuanchu nodded, and then lowered his voice and said: "In addition to letting you go to Guangdong as the envoy of the prince, there is also a private purpose - Guangdong, Fujian and Jiangnan are the places with the most underground activities against the Qing Dynasty and the restoration of the Ming Dynasty, and they are also the base camps of the anti-Qing forces and the remnants of the former Ming Dynasty. ”

A fine light flashed in Feng Xiang's fat face, and he nodded solemnly to Liu Xuanchu in agreement.
