Chapter 620: Conditions
"Master......"
As soon as the fourth master spoke, the man in black stopped him and said, "We have severed the master-apprentice relationship, you are you, I am me, we are not master and apprentice." Pen | fun | pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ ο½ο½ο½ο½β
"A teacher for one day, a father for life, Xuan Ce will always be grateful for Master's great kindness!"
"Alright, let's get down to business. He asked me to come this time. After the man in black took off the black scarf on his head, he showed a slightly old face, and he was the butler of the Assassin's Mansion.
The fourth master knew that the "he" in Laifu's words referred to Luo Suce, the assassin of Juzhou. I saw the fourth master smile self-deprecatingly and said, "He is so tight, there must be something terrible." Say, what's the matter? β
Rifle silently took out a letter from his bosom and handed it to him. The fourth master frowned, and scolded in a low voice: "I don't know if Lao Tzu doesn't like dancing and writing, every time I fix these things that I don't have, what can I say no?" Rifle heard this, smiled noncommittally, and did not speak.
The fourth master put the letter in front of the oil lamp, squinted his eyes and read it seriously, and before he finished reading it, he was furious: "What, let Lao Tzu be recruited? β
Laifu said lightly: "The forbidden army is menacing this time, you don't know, you shouldn't have finished reading it, just read the conditions of the imperial court." β
"It's you too, if it's a different person, I will definitely tear up this letter......" The fourth master scolded twice before continuing to read. Hehe, the imperial court is quite generous, the six-rank military attachΓ©, and even his brothers can be incorporated into the Xiang army? It's a bloody investment, but why? β
Laifu said in a sullen voice: "You occupy this tea and horse path, and the merchants can't do it, how can the court not be in a hurry?" In the past few years, it has been different, in the past, businessmen were not treated by the court, and now the court has to rely on businessmen to be able to have taxes. β
The fourth master sneered: "So you can see this price?" Hmph, what if I don't say yes? β
Rifle sighed and said, "You'll say yes." β
The fourth master was silent for a while before he said slowly: "That's right, I will agree." I did so much, not for the Luo family? Those side branches covet the Luo family's official position of assassin all the time. Phew, I don't want to think about it, they are like that, and they are also worthy of this thorn history? If they had done this assassination, the Yi family would have been in civil strife a long time ago! β
Laifu said expressionlessly: "I know that you voluntarily fell and fell on the top of the temple nest to protect the Luo family. With a thousand people under your command, those side branches don't dare to do anything. In the past 20 years, there have indeed been many fixed shares. But you have to know that Su Ce's body is not good, and every day is not as good as day by day. The Luo family doesn't have any outstanding sons, so in the past, I'm afraid I won't be able to keep the position of this leader......"
The fourth master was silent, and only sighed for a long time: "Where did this news come from?" β
"What the commander of the forbidden army is saying is the emperor's secret decree." Laifu also faintly sensed that something was wrong, "Are you afraid that the fat man is telling a lie?" β
The fourth master nodded and said, "I have more than a thousand brothers under my command, and I can't help but toss. Anyway, without the imperial court's holy decree, I won't follow the court's wishes. If the scooper commands him, tell him clearly. If you want me to recruit peace, you can, the imperial decree, the official position, and how to arrange the more than 1,000 brothers, everything must be written clearly, and I can rest assured. β
Laifu nodded and said, "That fat man shouldn't be foolish, he brought the method of farming in the mountains that the emperor came up with." If he thought of it himself, he probably wouldn't have the ability. β
The fourth master was stunned: "What, farming in the mountains?" β
Laifu nodded and said, "I still have to plant rice." β
The fourth master laughed, and said with a look of disbelief: "Is this little emperor crazy or crazy, how can he farm in the mountains, or grow rice?" It is a fertile field under the mountain, and if there is no water, it cannot be planted! β
"I heard that there are also people who know how to plant in Guangnan West Road, Guangnan East Road and other places, and Su Ce has sent people over to seek this method." Laifu said lightly, "I think it's feasible, there are not many things in Juzhou, and there are many people." If it is really planted, Juzhou will be an important place for tea and horse markets, and prosperity is just around the corner. With this political achievement in hand, how can the imperial court give the Luo family three points of face, that is, the side branch wants to snatch the official position of assassin Shi, but I am afraid that it will not be able to snatch it. β
The scar on the fourth master's face twitched, and he still looked unconvinced: "Master, this method really works?" β
"I've traveled all over the world, what haven't I seen? Indeed, on Guangnan West Road, there are villages that do the same. Laifu said lightly.
The fourth master was stunned: "Master, do you mean Miao Village?" β
Laifu nodded: "Miao Village has been inherited from ancient times, and many others do not know thaumaturgy. This terrace is one part, and the Gu is another. I warned you earlier that the Miao people should not be provoked. Even an old woman, a child, can put people to death. even want you to be a slave and a slave, and you will never be able to turn over. β
The fourth master is not a fledgling stunned young man, he can weigh it in his heart, and he knows what to do and what not to do. He blurted out: "Then if this method is feasible, those Yi family members will not cut the path?" Can the forbidden army return to Beijing? This is what he cares about the most, to be honest, if it weren't for the preferential treatment of the founding ancestor, the Luo family would still be a country within a country, where would it be necessary to pay tribute every year and bow down to the ministers? Even now, the Yi family also doesn't want to see the officers and soldiers of the imperial court, and they are very xenophobic, and they wish that these Qiu Ba would hurry back to Chang'an.
Laifu looked at the night outside with a pair of perceptive eyes, and said gloomily: "How can the thief be peaceful?" I'm afraid that the forbidden army will stay in Juzhou for a long time. Don't say that this is the case in Juzhou, and the Dali State that was previously attached is also the same. Duan Wangye's side, it is estimated that it is not much better, right? Previously, Nong Zhigao rebelled, and Duan Wangye was almost swept in. Fortunately, the first emperor was merciful and did not pursue it. The Duan family is now afraid of the imperial court, and it is natural that the forbidden army should be stationed. β
The fourth master's face was a little uncertain: "The Duan family has eight mansions, four counties, four towns, and thirty-six departments, and they all have to bow down to Dashun, and the ancestors do have unique foresight." It's a pity that he only won the official position of assassin history, if he is like the Duan family and becomes a prince, what crooked thoughts do those side branches dare to make? β
Laifu frowned and said, "The Duan family's life is not easy, and it is not comfortable to be a prince. It's not too early, I'm going to go back and tell Su Ce about it, and then invite the fat man to come over and talk about it. β
The fourth master was stunned: "Master doesn't stay and accompany the apprentice to drink two cups?" β
Laifu had already walked outside the wooden house, and said without looking back: "If you recruit An, we will have more time to drink." β
The fourth master looked at his back and quickly disappeared into the night. Under the dim oil lamp, his scarred face was reflected, which looked particularly penetrating: "Zhao'an, Zhao'an, this little emperor is kind-hearted!" β
(Recommend a friend's book, pig's feet can water a million words at the age of two, and can also talk to Li Hongzhang about the demons of the mountains, why didn't anyone set him on fire?) Fortunately, it was not after the founding of the People's Republic of China, otherwise it would not have been allowed to become a refinement.
