Lu Yifeng, twenty-five years old, Yunnan Dali Mansion, generations to do business as a business, the last years of the Ming Dynasty basically monopolized the jade and medicinal materials business in Dali Mansion, the business once throughout the whole province of Yunnan, the family is rich, after the Manchu Qing Dynasty entered the customs, the Lu family business was hit hard, a large number of shops were looted in the war, business plummeted, although Lu Yifeng's dead ghost father saw the opportunity to transfer a large number of family property in time, but still could not accept the blow of dozens of shops being looted by the rebels in turn, In addition, part of the family property that was too late to be transferred was also extorted by local officials appointed by the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and Lu's father became depressed and became ill, and died in the seventeenth year of Shunzhi in the Qing Dynasty. Before dying, Lu's father left a prophecy to his only son Lu Yifeng, who was only sixteen years old at the time, "Don't do business, you have to be an official, and only when you become an official can you have a good life!" Otherwise, no matter how big the business is, it will end up being a fat sheep slaughtered by the officials. ”

Not to mention, Lu Yifeng, who has been pampered since childhood, really listened to his father's words, buried his father and picked up the books according to his last words, studied and studied to prepare for the test, but Lu Yifeng's talent is too mediocre, just to take the test for three years before he was admitted, and he even lost his name to Sun Shan for five years. During this period, Lu Yifeng's mother unfortunately passed away, and his betrothed fiancée also died of illness before marriage, and Lu Yifeng completely became a lone star. But fortunately, the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, relying on the gold, silver and jewelry that his father quickly transferred and preserved, Lu Yifeng is still quite financially well-off, and with the growth of age and experience, Lu Yifeng also gradually understands that being an official does not necessarily have to rely on the right path of the imperial examination, and he understands that he is really not the material for studying, so Lu Yifeng made up his mind, and through the connections left by his father, he sent five thousand taels of silver to Wu Yingqi, the second son of Wu Sangui, the king of Pingxi. finally bought a real shortage of Qujing Zhi County in Yunnan, and became a glorious member of hundreds of Western election officials in this era!

When Lu Yifeng came to Kunming City with twenty or thirty family members from Dali Mansion with a sense of pride, and was about to knock on Wu Sangui to take office and go to Qujing County to knock on the bone and scrape the ground, in front of the Kunming City Gate, Lu Yifeng's horse was frightened and galloped, Lu Yifeng unfortunately fell from the horse and fell into a coma, and when he woke up, Brother Lu inexplicably became the little brother of Feng, and Lu Yifeng, the western election official in the early Manchu Dynasty, also became a small angry young man in the 21st century.

Stayed in the best Gaopeng Inn in Kunming City for two days, Feng Xiang, oh, it should be called Lu Yifeng now, the new Lu Yifeng gradually got rid of the sequelae of the headache caused by the fall from the horse, and gradually turned out the memories left by the old Lu Yifeng from his mind, mastered the various situations in the old Lu Yifeng's home and the words and deeds of this era, and finally officially integrated into the role of Lu Yifeng. On the 12th of September, he made up his mind to prepare to become the county governor of Qujing first, and then said that Xinlu Yifeng, and also took Erlang and other twenty or thirty family members to fight horses and came to the foot of Wuhua Mountain, where the Pingxi Wangfu was located, and prepared to meet Wu Sangui first according to the rules of the western election officials, listen to Wu Sangui's teachings, and then go to the capital to see His Majesty who was held up to the sky by the braided coat to eat chaff and drink small pockmarks, and finally returned to Qujing, Yunnan to officially take office.

Wuhua Mountain is located in the northern suburbs of Kunming, the top building was originally the Forbidden City of the former Ming Yongli Emperor, Wu Sangui also took over unceremoniously after the domain of Yunnan, after repair and reconstruction, it became Wu Sangui's Pingxi Palace, the mountains and forests are majestic, the palace is gorgeous, it is really a good place with beautiful scenery. But it's a pity that it's not the 21st century, and you can go up to Wuhua Mountain for a little money to buy a few tickets, so after arriving at the foot of Wuhua Mountain, Feng Xiang could only dismount according to the rules and submit an official document to the general of Wu Sangui's army guarding the mountain, asking for Wu Sangui's reception.

After waiting for nearly an hour under the scorching sun at the foot of the mountain, a herald finally came down from Wuhua Mountain, and shouted impatiently: "That is Lu Yifeng of Qujing Zhi County, Yunnan?" Come out! Feng Xiang, who was already standing on his legs and was about to be sunburned and oily, hurriedly stepped forward and replied, "General, the next official is Lu Yifeng." ”

"Prince Pingxi is not free, you go back, and come back another day to knock." The herald didn't even bother to look at Feng Xiang, and directly waved his hand impatiently to drive people away-no way, not to mention that Feng Xiang is still just a nominal magistrate who has not officially taken office, even if Feng Xiang has really become the magistrate of Qujing, he can't expect to get any good face here, after all, the magistrate is just a seven-rank petty official with the size of a sesame mung bean. And although Feng Xiang was not in a hurry to see the notorious Han Annihilation Wu Sangui, in order to avoid running the wrong way, Feng Xiang still asked in a low voice: "Dare to ask the general, I don't know if the prince of Pingxi has ever explained, let the little one come over and knock on him?" ”

"The prince didn't say it, you can do it yourself!" The herald replied angrily. Feng Xiang was not stupid, and quickly asked Erlang to take out two taels of silver and stuff them into the herald's hand, and the herald weighed the weight, and then slowed down and whispered: "The prince has been unwell these days, and he really didn't tell you when to come over to knock, you can come over tomorrow to try your luck." Feng Xiang was helpless, so he had to agree in a low voice, and left with Erlang and the others.

In the next few days, Feng Xiang took Erlang and other family members back and forth to Wuhua Mountain several times, but unfortunately, every time he failed to go up to Wuhua Mountain, he saw the notorious Han Wu Sangui, and the reply given by the guards of Pingxi Wangfu was that Wu Sangui was in poor health, and he could not meet with a Xixuan official like Feng Xiang, and at the same time, Wu Sangui's second son Wu Yingqi in Yunnan also did not show up, hiding in Pingxi Wangfu every day, and he didn't know what he was doing. In this way, Feng Xiang, who didn't particularly want to see Wu Sangui's ugly face immediately, was inevitably a little strange, and took out a huge amount of ten taels of silver to bribe a guard squad leader in the Pingxi Palace, and asked him carefully.

"Dare to ask the general, is it so difficult for our Western Election Officer to knock on the prince of Pingxi?" Feng Xiang asked curiously: "Xia Guandu has been here five times, and he has not been able to go up to Wuhua Mountain, is it like this for every Western Election Official to come here?" ”

Ten taels of silver in history are not as worthless as in novels, especially in the early years of the Qing Dynasty, ten taels of silver are basically enough for a medium-sized family for a year, for the sake of the face of these ten taels of silver, the captain of the guard team of the Pingxi Royal Mansion replied truthfully: "That's not the case, Pingxi Prince Lixian Corporal, usually the West election officials come to Wuhua Mountain to ask for a meeting, basically they can get the prince to meet on the same day, at most they only wait for a day or two." It's just that your luck is really bad, the prince has been too busy with official business recently, and his health is not very good, and his temper is a little big, and he refuses to see the living, so he let you run so much. ”

After that, the captain of the guard team pointed to the side of the school yard at the foot of the mountain and said, "See?" The entourage of the Governor of Yunnan and Guizhou, Bian Sanyuan, and the Governor of Yunnan, Zhang Guozhu, and General Zhang, these days, Lord Bian and General Zhang have to go up to Wuhua Mountain every day before dawn to discuss military affairs with the prince, and their entourage has to wait here until dark, a few days ago there were more people, Guizhou Governor Cao Shenji and Admiral Li Benshen also came, or left yesterday. The prince is busy like this, and his body is a little uncomfortable, so there is still time to see you? ”

Feng Xiang looked in the direction pointed out by the captain of the guard team, and saw that a large number of soldiers and entourages had gathered under the shade of the tree next to the school field, playing cards one by one, drinking tea, and chatting, all of them looked like they had been fighting for a long time, Feng Xiang was very curious, and couldn't help but ask the captain of the guard team again: "General, the lower official takes the liberty to ask, what kind of political affairs has the prince been busy with recently?" How long will it take? ”

"It's not a matter of the prince asking for the decree to be returned to the government envoy of Yungui, the head of the government." The captain of the guard team saw that Feng Xiang was the official of the Western Election, so he was not obscure, and directly told the truth: "In March this year, because of the jade body, the prince asked the court to return the envoy in charge of Yungui's government affairs, and the court approved it. Later, Bian Sanyuan, the governor of Yunnan and Guizhou, Zhang Guozhu, the governor of Yunnan, and Li Benshen, the governor of Guizhou, jointly submitted a petition to the imperial court to allow the prince to be in charge of the political affairs of Yunnan and Guizhou, but the imperial court did not approve it. A few days ago, the chapter was sent back to Yunnan, and several adults were anxious, and they came to see the prince together, discussing how to let the emperor take back his life and continue to let the prince manage our Yunnan and Guizhou. ”

"Wu Sangui is crazy?" Feng Xiang was confused when he heard this, and said in his heart: "Isn't Wu Sangui's old Han Zhan going to rebel in a few years?" How to take the initiative to request the surrender of the management rights of Yunnan and Guizhou? Without the big rear of Yunnan and Guizhou, how could he rebel? ”

"Lord Lu, I have to go." Seeing that Feng Xiang didn't speak, the captain of the guard squad yawned and said, "It's time for the guards of Wuhua Mountain to change shifts, Lord Lu, you can wait patiently, when the prince is busy for a while, he will definitely find time to meet you." Don't worry, the prince's words are true, and if he says that Qujing Zhixian is yours, no one can snatch it away. ”

After that, the captain of the guard team said goodbye and left, Feng Xiang was in a daze with his eyes rolling in place, and Ding Erlang, who was next to him, said kindly: "Young Master Feng, it's too hot, anyway, I won't be able to see the prince, it's better to go back and rest early, and come to Wuhua Mountain to see the prince another day." ”

Feng Xiang didn't speak, he just calculated in his heart, if according to the original historical development, the Manchu Qing Dynasty had an unstable foothold in the Central Plains at this time, there was still a chance for the Han people to expel the Tatars and recover China, and it was also the last chance, and he was now powerless and powerless, let alone a strong backer and deep background, if he wanted to show his strength in the rebellion of the three feudatories a few years later, it would not be possible to go on like this. If you want to get ahead and lay a good foundation for your future, you must seek wealth and risk, and take a risk to impress Wu Sangui, even if you don't want to take refuge in this old man, at least you have to beat your reputation!

Thinking about this, Feng Xiang gritted his teeth, suddenly pulled Erlang's sleeve, and commanded in a low voice: "Erlang, I'll take someone back to Gaopeng Inn first, you take a few literate family members to Kunming City, and buy a copy of the imperial palace newspaper in recent months, if you can find it, it is best to get a copy of the palace newspaper that has been spread throughout the country in the imperial court this year." ”

"Di Bao? Young Master Feng, don't you never look at this thing? What do you buy it for? Jiro asked, scratching his head. Feng Xiang smiled and replied, "What are you doing?" Of course, it's to see what kind of illness Prince Pingxi is suffering from. ”

The so-called Di Bao is actually an ancient newspaper, this thing has been copied and printed by merchants since the Song Dynasty and sold for profit, Xiao Erlang took the family to collect it at all, but it took some time to collect all the Di Bao within this year, so it was not until the evening of the same day that Xiao Erlang returned the thick stack of Di Bao to Gao Peng Inn, and Feng Xiang didn't even finish dinner, and immediately took this stack of Di Bao into the room to read it at night. Seeing Feng Xiang so attentive, Erlang, who had grown up in the Lu family since he was a child, couldn't help but sigh, "If Young Master Feng had worked so hard earlier, don't talk about showing talent, I'm afraid that Jinshi would have passed the exam a long time ago." ”

In the early morning of the next day, when Erlang and the other family were still sleeping on the bunk under the package, the door was suddenly kicked open, Erlang struggled to sit up and take a look, but saw his own Young Master Lu rushing in with red eyes, and shouted when he entered the door: "Get up for me, pack up your things and go to Wuhua Mountain, quickly." ”

"Young Master Feng, it's just dawning, there's no need to be in such a hurry, right?" Erlang yawned and said, "I won't see the prince of Pingxi if I go so early, so let's wait a little longer and wait until I finish breakfast." ”

"It's okay, I'm sure I'll be able to see King Pingxi this time." Feng Xiang said confidently: "Isn't King Pingxi sick?" I'm going to heal him today. ”

"Heal? Young Master Feng, when did you learn to heal? Jiro was taken aback. Feng Xiang smiled and replied: "I only learned it last night, although I am not very sure, but if you want to be appreciated and reused by King Pingxi, you have to gamble." ”
