Chapter 279: The wicked have their own wicked grinding
readx;
Liu Chengfeng's nest in Lianzhou has been almost prepared, although the Hou Mansion has not yet been built, but the specifications and the guards that should be there have been prepared, but the leader of this guard, Liu Chengfeng has no choice, so he had to write to the court and ask the court to appoint a person.

There are two meanings to do this, on the one hand, Liu Chengfeng really has no one at hand, and on the other hand, it is also to show loyalty. The so-called guards, although allowed by the imperial court, are private soldiers after all, and private soldiers will inevitably make people jealous, so asking the imperial court to appoint military attaches can also make those with bad intentions shut up.
A few days later, as Li Dongdong said, the messenger of the Annamite finally arrived.
The envoy is still some distance away from Lianzhou, but he has already sent someone to report with a fast horse in advance, hearing this news, Liu Chengfeng has to admire Li Dongdong, this guy is really not to be underestimated, and he can actually take the lead in meeting people, which is not only related to his careful observation of Annan, so as to know the surname of Annan people, but also proves his superhuman strength.
Liu Chengfeng hurriedly went to call someone to invite Li Dongdong, Li Dongdong lived in this line for a few days, but he didn't lock himself in the room, every morning he went out to Lianzhou City to go around, or drink tea, or hang out, and sometimes go to the market to buy some things, and only came back in the evening, Liu Chengfeng knew that this guy was definitely not idle, but had a purpose, went out to hang out, just to better understand Lianzhou, otherwise Zhuge Liang was reincarnated and didn't want to do anything.
The more Li Dongdong is in this posture, the more Liu Chengfeng adds a bit of good impression to his attitude, although the two have no communication these days, but after inviting Li Dongdong to see him today, Liu Chengfeng is no longer as arrogant as before, got up and left his seat, personally greeted Li Dongdong into the flower hall, and then called someone to serve tea, not only did not sit on the main seat highly, but pulled a chair and sat down face to face with Li Dongdong, and then said: "Sir, the messenger of Annan is here." ”
Liu Chengfeng didn't say anything, according to the rules of officialdom, in fact, the more he greeted, the more distant he became, but talking like this can make people feel close.
Liu Chengfeng's attitude also made Li Dongdong a little excited, you want to say how calm and calm it is impossible, the first time he came out to do things, after a conversation, he immediately won Liu Chengfeng's favor and respect, this is Liu Chengfeng's greatest recognition of him, at the same time he proved his ability, read books for decades, learned half a lifetime of knowledge, and now finally has the opportunity to perform, how can Li Dongdong not be excited?
Li Dongdong took a deep breath and said, "How are you going to deal with it?" ”
Li Dongdong wants to test Liu Chengfeng, and he also respects Liu Chengfeng's meaning, after all, the two will continue to cooperate in the future, and it will be good for him to have a lower posture.
Liu Chengfeng smiled and said: "Ming Xiu plank road secretly crossed Chen Cang, since the people of Annan dare to come cheekily, then Liu someone's face and surname will not be wanted, is Mr. willing to go with me to welcome Annan?" ”
Ming Xiu plank road secretly crossed Chen Cang, Li Dongdong was stunned for a while, Liu Chengfeng said so vaguely that even he couldn't guess Liu Chengfeng's thoughts.
However, the more Liu Chengfeng sold Guanzi, the more Li Dongdong became interested, and he showed his skills to Liu Chengfeng, Liu Chengfeng was afraid that he also wanted to show a thing or two in front of him. That's good, today it is said that the surname Suo has seen and seen Liu Chengfeng's means.
Liu Chengfeng went to change into the flying fish suit given by Qin, and became heroic, Li Dongdong did not change his clothes, it was still a round-necked Confucian shirt, and then the local prefect and officials also arrived, after all, it was an envoy of the vassal state, and in terms of etiquette, Lianzhou was also regarded as one of the vassal states, but the status was lower, but the vassal state, and the level of Annan was much higher.
So it's understandable to greet you ceremoniously. If you want to say that Wang Zheng is quite neat, he always wanted to get by in the past, it was because he had no motivation, anyway, for officials, there is no difference between being an official in a place like Lianzhou and filling the army, the future is bleak, and no one cares no matter how good he does. Now it's different, this has become Liu Chengfeng's fiefdom, Wanhuhou's exposure is not low, with Liu Chengfeng, the big guys in the court are always paying attention, if they can do something by themselves, maybe they can really get out of the sea of suffering.
In addition, Wan Huhou is refreshing, things are done well, and there will be no less rewards, but if you don't do things well, people will turn their faces when they say they will turn their faces, and they will give you two slaps, can you afford it?
After a while, the guards of honor were all prepared, Liu Chengfeng took the lead and sat in the sedan chair, in fact, Liu Chengfeng was not used to sitting in a sedan chair, but he was performing martial arts with Gao Qiang and Gu Changdong last night, and he could see that he was divine, so he slept late and was not in good spirits.
A team of men and horses quickly left Lianzhou City, stopped outside the post station outside the city, and waited for a cup of tea, and the Annan people arrived.
The number of this group of Annan people is really quite a lot, there are hundreds of people, Liu Chengfeng pondered in his heart, could these Annan people come to fight the autumn wind and send so many people? Seeing that there is not much baggage in their team, it is clear that they want to eat, drink and lazar in Lianzhou, these guys are really going to plan.
Although he thought so in his heart, when he saw these people from afar, Liu Chengfeng had already greeted them with a smile, and he greeted the envoys of Annan in person, which could be regarded as giving enough face to the people of Annan.
After the two sides met the courtesy, Liu Chengfeng knew that the chief envoy of Annan was a thin and swarthy half-old man, in his forties, his temples were a little white, his name was Li Xin, this guy can actually speak an authentic Guangxi official dialect, but his Guangxi taste official dialect made Liu Chengfeng very stressed, because Liu Chengfeng came from Beijing, listening to this guy triumphantly speaking so many Guangxi native languages, how could he not be speechless?
Li Xin saw that Liu Chengfeng didn't seem to understand it, so he finally stopped showing off his Guangxi official dialect, and instead used a stiff Beijing accent to answer Liu Chengfeng, which made Liu Chengfeng feel better.
The two sides exchanged pleasantries in the post station, Liu Chengfeng was not in a hurry to ask each other's intentions, and Li Xin was not in a hurry to reveal his mission for the time being, anyway, he was desperately touting each other, Li Xin wanted to congratulate Liu Chengfeng on his access, and Liu Chengfeng had to preach about their friendship with each other.
Li Xin saw Liu Chengfeng so enthusiastic, his heart was happy, Li Xin is a close minister of the king of Annan, this time he came to Lianzhou for the sake of benefits, on the one hand, he wanted to officially assign Wenshan and Hefu counties to Annan, after all, although Annan occupied Wenshan and Hefu, but Daming was biting and refusing to let go, God knows what variables will be in the future. Now it's okay, Lianzhou has become the fief of this young man now, looking at this young man's big grinning appearance, he must not be a powerful character, the surname Suo bypassed the court of the Ming Dynasty, scared and scared this young man, and officially naturalized the two counties of Wenshan and Hefu into Annan, and the big stone in Annan's heart will fall.
However, Li Xin came to have another purpose, a few days ago there were rumors about the businessmen who came in and out of Annan, saying that there was a Hou Ye in Lianzhou, and there were gold and silver mountains at home, and he was very generous when he came to Lianzhou.
Annan is not a rich place, in the South Seas may be considered a hegemon, but compared with the Ming Dynasty, it is really a heaven and an underground, the annual income of the small court of Annan is only about 100,000 silver taels, this is still a good year, if there is a disaster year, this number is even less, if you can come here to fight the autumn wind, from this Hou Ye to pull out some silver, that is the best thing. What's the matter, there are also twenty or thirty thousand taels of silver, and now the king of Annan is in a hurry to build the palace, the palace has been in disrepair for a long time, and it should be repaired well, just so that this Wanhu Hou of Lianzhou can take a little.
In fact, every time they send envoys in and out of the Central Plains, they are rewarded richly, and Li Xin believes that he will definitely live up to his mission this time.
And compared to the rewards of the Ming Dynasty, people never reward in kind, only give some jade, silk, porcelain and other items, to the hands of the Annan people to resell a few big money, but this Wanhu Hou is different, people take real money, can save a lot of trouble.
Before coming, Li Xin and the king of Annan thought of a countermeasure, this Wanhu Hou has just arrived, and it is said that he is not very old, such a person will inevitably be a little arrogant, Annan wants to force this Wanhu Hou to submit, it is necessary to scare him, give him a little color to see, so in order to cooperate with Li Xin's visit, the King of Annan has other arrangements, their method is also simple, that is, first to get off the horse, and then persuade each other with good words, one rigid and one soft, soft and hard, who said that Annan people have no IQ?
However, in the face of Liu Chengfeng's enthusiastic attitude, Li Xin was really a little flattered, now Ma Wei has not yet been established, people are so hospitable, everything is different from what Li Xin thought.
After Liu Chengfeng and Li Xin greeted each other for a while, they naturally entered the city with Li Xin, and then set up a banquet to wash the dust for Li Xin, Li Xin wanted to talk to Liu Chengfeng about his mission, but Liu Chengfeng slapped the table and called his friends from afar, and he had to drink before talking, otherwise the guests and hosts would be happy.
In the face of Liu Chengfeng's abnormal enthusiasm, Li Xin could only smile bitterly, got drunk, and was helped to rest.
When he got up early in the morning, Li Xin found himself sleeping in Liu Chengfeng's line, the agarwood in the wing room was bursting, the bed was very soft, and the whole bedroom was very chic.
It seems that the Marquis of Wanhu seems to be very polite to himself.
Li Xin wondered in his heart, should he go straight to the point with this surnamed Liu, should this threatening word be used?
