Now Wu Shigong is not in the mood for a storm, he has to hurry up and digest what he observed at the banquet.

At the banquet, those general soldiers who were pro-Hong Chengchou, such as Yang Guozhu, the chief soldier of the Zhengxuan Mansion, frequently talked with Wu Shigong and put on a very affectionate appearance. As for the other civil and military officers, they maintained basic politeness with Wu Shigong, and their attitude was lukewarm.

As for those who maintain a hostile attitude like Wu Sangui, there are not a few, basically they are all generals who are very close to Wu Sangui, and the other Liaodong generals, their attitude is still not far or close, that is, they do not appear to be affectionate, and they do not appear to be angry, and they show that they don't want to help.

Wu Shigong analyzed: This shows that the army in Liaodong is basically divided into three factions, one is pro-Hong Chengchou; One faction is more neutral; The other faction is the generals of the Guanning Iron Cavalry. And the prison army Gao Qiqian is close to Guanning Tieqi.

However, judging from today's performance, these three factions are still able to coexist harmoniously at present, and they are still obeying Hong Chengchou's orders. It is only because of the sensitivity of the factional struggle within the political group that the pro-Hong Chengchou will win over Wu Shigong, and the Guanning Iron Cavalry will suppress Wu Shigong, and their purpose is nothing more than to strengthen the strength of their own faction, and they want to strive for more benefits for their faction in the future supply, replenishment of troops, and combat missions.

And Hong Chengchou still has to be impartial on the surface. Therefore, he did not exceed the specifications when he greeted Wu Shigong, because he didn't want the other two factions to be too disgusted. However, Hong Chengchou also obviously had the intention of wooing Wu Shigong, after all, Wu Shigong was personally appointed by him, and the more troops Hong Chengchou controlled, the more stable his position as the governor of Jiliao would be, so he would provoke the contradiction between Wu Shigong and Wu Sangui at the banquet. Let Wu Shigong not be inclined to other factions, coupled with Yang Guozhu's overtures, it is to make Wu Shigong completely throw himself to Hong Chengchou's side.

In this regard, Wu Shigong is also happy to see it, and maintaining a close relationship with Hong Chengchou can at least take advantage of the supply of food and salary. In addition, Wu Shigong has a personal grudge with Wu Sangui, and it is easy to suffer a loss if he argues with Wu Sangui alone, so he still welcomes Hong Chengchou to cover his head.

And after thinking about this, Wu Shigong was also relieved. At least there are no contradictions within the Ming army now, and those factions are also unavoidable in any group, as long as you pay attention to yourself and don't get involved in the contradictions between these factions. As for Wu Sangui? Anyway, his Runing army was an independent army, and Wu Shigong certainly would not take the initiative to provoke Wu Sangui on the ground in Liaodong. will not tolerate Wu Sangui's provocation. And the relationship between the Runing Army and the Guanning Iron Cavalry? Then it depends on the performance of Guan Ning's iron cavalry, anyway, the Runing army has an attitude: people don't offend me, I don't offend people.

Since there is no danger in sight. Wu Shigong also felt relaxed. So he wanted to go back to his bedroom. It's easier to find that Datong girl. But at this moment, Chi Ming, who had been waiting from the sidelines, stepped forward.

Just now, Chi Ming saw that Wu Shigong was wandering and thinking, so he didn't dare to step forward to disturb Wu Shigong's train of thought. But now that Wu Shigong's brows are stretched, he is about to fulfill his duties as the commander of the guard.

"My lord! Mr. Deng has taken care of this strange woman, ......" Chi Ming repeated the old words again.

Wu Shigong interrupted Chi Ming's words impatiently: "Do you listen to Mr. Deng or me?" Normal gift-giving. Another weak woman, what's the danger? You're too surprised! ”

"But ......?"

"Good! I'll do a search later, and I'll never let her have the murder weapon on her body. Are you still afraid that a man like me can't resist a woman? Saying this, Wu Shigong also laughed secretly in his heart. Later, of course, I have to take off all the clothes of the Datong girl. As for whether it was for a body search? Then don't explain.

Seeing Wu Shigong's repeated insistence, Chi Ming also blushed and didn't dare to persuade him again. And Wu Shigong also knew that Chi Ming was for his own good, so he slowed down his tone and comforted: "The journey is tiring, you don't have to be on duty today, let Huang Ding do it." Go and see if the maid brought by the woman is good, you can also pick one, and relax yourself. After the coercion, Wu Shigong was tempted. is to drag Chi Ming into the water, so that he will not hit his own little report after returning to Runing.

"No......, no......!" Hearing Wu Shigong's words, Chi Ming's face turned even redder, and he waved his hand again and again, becoming stuttering as if stepping on his tail.

"Haha——!" Seeing Chi Ming's embarrassment, Wu Shigong couldn't help but laugh. He didn't care whether Chi Ming, a boy, could let go or not, and he was about to walk to the bedroom.

In fact, Wu Shigong is not a lust fan, because he is also sure of this Datong girl. Since that Datong girl was arranged by Chang Qiu, she would never arrange for her to assassinate herself. Except for the extraordinary autumn, he wants to die together, otherwise, the assassination of a high-ranking military attache of the imperial court is enough to kill all the suspects. And there is no irreconcilable contradiction between Chang Qiu and Wu Shigong, and he wants to cooperate with Ru Ningjun in business, so there is no motive that is unfavorable to Wu Shigong.

As for whether the Datong girl will be a dead soldier sent by the Manchus? Not to mention whether the Manchus would use such a big price, just saying that there were so many civil and military forces in Shanhaiguan who were more important than Wu Shigong would not let the Manchus target themselves. Wu Shigong believes that his status is not so important.

The only thing that needs to be guarded against is that the Datong girl may be a spy sent to him by Chang Qiu. But as long as Wu Shigong is vigilant, does not divulge secrets in front of the Datong girl, and then lets the soldiers strictly cut off the contact between inside and outside the house, this hidden worry can be completely eliminated.

Besides, after tomorrow's military meeting, the Runing army will soon go on the march, and Wu Shigong will no longer have contact with the Datong girl. In this case, why should the fragrance sent to the door be pushed out of the door? Taking advantage of this, Wu Shigong will not suffer any losses.

Seeing that Wu Shigong was about to enter the inner room, Chi Ming, who finally came to his senses, hurriedly stopped him: "My lord, that Lai Piha who lied to you just now has been caught, and the silver has also been recovered." He is now locked up in the backyard firewood room, what should I do with him? ”

Wu Shigong stopped and remembered that there was still this matter. After thinking about it for a while, Wu Shigong ordered: "Beat him first, and then send him down when I have time." Be careful, don't kill or maim you. Otherwise, it won't look good. ”

After all, Hadan Batel has an official status, although he has no power and power, and he has deceived himself, it is okay to teach him some lessons, but if a Ming official is killed or disabled, it will be quite troublesome in the future. (To be continued......)
