Lu Wang stood in the corner of the tent with a cigarette in his mouth and looked at the two people very quietly, a husband and wife, a couple in troubled times, Li Yan and the red lady held hands and whispered something, it could be seen that both of them were very excited, but at the scale of this era, the two of them were just looking at each other, you and me, the princess and the lady or something, as for the scene of passionate kisses, there was no stage, after all, there was a big light bulb here!

"Ahem, cough, let's talk again, if Li Gongzi wants to know, I won't bother the two of you", Lu Wang decided to open up the highlights and not spoil the scenery.

"Uncle, slow down!" Li Yan hurriedly stopped Lu Wang, his face was a little unnatural, after an hour of escape, he finally followed Shi Lang back to the camp of the officers and soldiers safely, and for the first time, he got on an off-road vehicle and sent it directly to Lu Wang's handsome tent, and he immediately lost his temper after seeing the red lady in a few greetings!

"Uncle forgive Li Yan for being rude, if Uncle is not busy now, how about we talk?" Li Yan gave a salute to Lu Wang, no matter what, he was born in a scholarly family after all, even if he was a thief, he still respected the official family very much, after all, this is orthodoxy, so he is a scholar who has great respect for Lu Wang's status as an earl, and he must be treated with courtesy, even if he is just a young man in front of him!

"I want to hear", Lu Wang smiled slightly, pulled a chair down, and handed a cigarette to Li Yan, "Li Gongzi, what do you want to talk about, except for the things of gods and ghosts, I can't answer them!" ”

Li Yan took the cigarette and looked at it, and did not smoke it in any way, but gently put it on the table, "Li Yan has three questions that I want to ask my uncle to solve!" ”

"Please!" Lu Wang said lightly.

"Little uncle, I, can I stay and listen to you?" The red lady suddenly interjected and came in! Lu Wang smiled, "Naturally, what's not to do!" ”

"Thank you, little uncle", Li Yan and the red lady saluted Lu Wang at the same time, Lu Wang nodded slightly and stretched out his hand to Li Yan to make a gesture of please!

"First question. Does the little uncle have any good plan to subdue the rebels in one fell swoop and recruit them to surrender? After the surrender, how to deal with those generals, including King Chuang? Li Yan began to ask!

"Haha, here I am not a righteous army, but a rebellious minister and thief who has brought disaster to the country and the people, and they are a thief army!" Lu Wang sneered, "As for surrendering, I'm sorry, I never thought about it, since they have the courage to rebel, they have to have the courage to bear the consequences, I will strike a heavy blow to make them remember for a long time, as for how to deal with the thieves." Then don't you need to ask, there is no forgiveness for killing! ”

Yes! Li Yan was shocked at first, and then he was dissatisfied with Lu Wang's words, "Maybe in the eyes of the little uncle, we are a thief army, a chaotic minister and a thief, but in the eyes of the people, we are a righteous army, and now the court is corrupt, traitorous ministers are in power, and corruption and bribery." The people are not happy, King Chuang and others have indeed done a lot of good things for the people in the uprising, and the little uncle can't talk about it on the same side! ”

Lu Wang's sneer rang out again, "I want to ask what good the thieves have done for the people?" The only good thing is to make them bankrupt and have to rebel with him! Li Yan, you haven't been in the thief army for a day or two. The fact is that you know it in your own heart, but you just don't want to admit it, and you touch your heart and ask yourself, have the thieves really done anything for the people? Did the people really live a good life with him? If nothing else, let's see what the days of the soldiers in your battalion are like? ”

Li Yan closed his eyes and calmed his breath slightly, then let out a long sigh, "Even so." But the government forced the people to rebel, and they had to rebel! Now there are too many corrupt officials, and the common people really can't live anymore, and at least they will stutter if they follow King Chuang! ”

"Yes, it was this stuttering that took advantage of the people to use him as free cannon fodder, and it was this stuttering that made the Ming Dynasty corrupt to this point, and hundreds of people were ruined! How many people have been harmed for their own benefit! But those who didn't follow the rebellion didn't starve to death, and they were still alive! ”

Lu Wang snorted coldly, "There are many corrupt officials, and everyone shouts and kills corrupt officials, but I want to ask you if the generals in your so-called righteous army are not greedy, are they really as blessed and shared with ordinary soldiers?" I don't think so, as far as I know, there are not a few thieves who freeze to death and starve to death, but what about your generals, you eat and drink big fish and meat several times a day! I want to ask even if you win the world, what is the difference between these goods and the current corrupt officials, and now the rebellion is just a fart for the people of the world, the fact is just to enjoy the glory and wealth for yourself, as for the others, they are just his stepping stones, cannon fodder! ”

Lu Wang's tone was sad and indignant, and his expression was hideous, Li Yan and he thought he was like this when he first met, but the red lady was a little frightened, what I have known for so long is his nonsensical and Lele appearance, even when he was discussing with his generals, he was smiling, but now it is obviously different!

With a long sigh, Li Yan stood up, picked up a bottle of liquor on the table, poured himself a glass and drank it all, "Reality is always too cruel!" I understand what the little uncle said, but I just don't want to admit it! That's it! As he spoke, he turned around and smiled slightly, "Uncle is young and has extraordinary knowledge!" ”

Hum! Lu Wang was a little excited about what he said just now, but now he has to slow down, but Li Yan continued to ask, "Yesterday, I also received a surrender letter from my uncle, and I felt that it was a fraud at the time, but it seems to be true. ”

"Where's the end?" Rwann is puzzled!

"I believe that Uncle has the ability to defeat the rebel army, but it is not too desperate to say that all the leaders of the rebel army will be killed, in fact, there are many leaders in the rebel army is good!" Li Yan looked at Lu Wang and said with anticipation on his face!

Sure enough, Lu Wang didn't disappoint him, he smiled, "It's angry just now, you can kill everything, I know that there is a saying that you are born at the wrong time, and you can't help yourself, so I also believe that many people in the thief army are forced to be helpless, and there are many heroes and heroes I admire, for these people naturally can't be killed, but a few people are killed!" ”

"This must kill person is ......" Li Yan's brows furrowed into a line!

"Li Zicheng will be killed, Liu Zongmin will die, Gao Yigong will also die, and Li Guo will also be in a catastrophe!" The corners of Lu Wang's mouth twitched, and his face was full of coldness, "As for the Fifth Battalion of Gezuo and Zhang Xianzhong hidden in Lu'an, don't even think about running for your life!" ”

"King Chuang, as the head of the heroes, is hated by the imperial court to kill him, and it is not surprising that Li Guo and Gao Yigong are on the list, but why is Liu Zongmin? Is it because he is famous among the rebels? Li Yan asked

Haha, Lu Wan suddenly smiled, "I'm going to correct it." It's definitely not just the generals who are thieves that the court hates, even if it's a small thief and the court is eager to frustrate the bones and scatter ashes, how can it be picky, it's me who really wants to kill the thieves! ”

"Ahh Could it be that King Chuang and the little uncle have a holiday? Li Yan was taken aback

"How so? I don't even know what he looks like for the festival", Lu Wang smiled faintly, and then sighed, "Killing him is to save other people's lives, after so many years of trouble, someone has to come out and take responsibility for such a big movement, not because he surrendered." There is nothing to blame, and the past is not to blame. If there is really such a good thing, there is no crime in rebellion, and Zhao'an can still be a big official, and everyone will follow suit in the future, so it will be repaid! As for why he killed Liu Zongmin, the reason is very simple, he is very popular, his influence in the thief army is only inferior to Li Zicheng, in order to never suffer in the future, this person must also die! ”

Li Yan nodded slightly after hearing this, "Is the little uncle familiar with the generals of the Righteous Army?" To say that Liu Zongmin is definitely not the only one who has great influence in the army. There are also many people such as Liu Fangliang, such as Luo Rucai, how do these little uncles plan to deal with them! ”

"Hey, you're actually trying to ask me why I didn't kill them, right?" Lu Wang smiled: "Although these two people have a lot of influence in the army, they should be killed." But I respect the character of these two and can't bear to kill them."

"Character?" Li Yan's eyes widened and he felt ridiculous: "It seems that the little uncle doesn't know much about the generals in the righteous army, if you say that Liu Fangliang's character is good, there is no way to refute it, but then Luo Rucai is a cunning and capricious villain." What is the theory of character! The little uncle is out of sight! ”

"Yes, you're right! This man is cunning and capricious. It's just that everything has many sides, and from another point of view, it can also be said that he is resourceful, flexible, and good at using soldiers to fight", Lu Wang looked at Li Yan, who was stunned, and smiled again, "These are just jokes, the reason why I really don't kill Luo Rucai is because I value his righteousness, the righteousness of the rivers and lakes!" ”

"Jianghu righteousness?" Li Yan was puzzled

"Yes!" Lu Wang nodded slightly, took a sip of the water cup and moistened his throat, "Most of the predecessors of the thief army were composed of the heroes of the Liukou and the Green Forest Road, and the Liukou are mostly unlimited, and even the Qing Army disdains to use them, but as for the Green Forest Road, there is still some bottom line, the so-called thieves also have a way, Luo Rucai has always adhered to this principle!" This person actually has no ambitions, even if the thief army is powerful now, but in his eyes, it is still just a green forest and rivers and lakes, and what he does is still a habit of rivers and lakes! ”

Oh, Li Yan didn't expect Lu Wang to have such an understanding of Luo Rucai, and he was very surprised, "What is the basis for what the little uncle said!" ”

"Naturally, the idea of the alliance of the thirteen families of the thief army was proposed by Luo Rucai, this incident shows that this person has a plan, and secondly, it can be seen that he has seen too much of the Water Margin, and his mind is full of martial arts conferences, martial arts alliance leaders!" Lu Wang smiled and continued, "And this person is good at reconciling the relationship between various ministries, and can unite with anyone, and after the city is conquered, everyone will share the property of his children equally, and even more honest officials will not touch it, which seems to be a few people in the thief army who can do this, this is his thief and his way!" ”

"As for his morality, without him, Zhang Xianzhong would not dare to rebel against Gucheng, without him Zhang Xianzhong might have died in the hands of Li Zicheng, of course, without him, Li Zicheng would not have wanted to raise an army of millions! I don't want to kill him on this basis, although this person is a big pervert, it is said that there are beautiful women around him, and there are no less than 100 people, is it true! ”

"Words are not true!" Li Yan closed his eyes and nodded, his mind full of not knowing what he was thinking, Lu Wang looked at his expression and smiled, "What about your second question?" ”

Forehead! Li Yan was stunned for a moment, and quickly calmed down, "The second question is that uncle, you said before, only under your rule can the people live and work in peace and contentment, and the people can live and work in peace and contentment. Didn't you say that you can't use immortal magic if you have a seal on your body? Li Yan stared at Lu Wang, his eyes were very eager, and there was some suspicion mixed with it!

"And, it's just a joke, how can I be interested in being the emperor of the mortal world, that is, this uncle is the emperor Lao'er who forced me to come over, I just can't see the people of the world suffering, so I went down to the earth to save the world between fire and water, and when I became famous, I naturally returned to the fairy world to enjoy Qingfu." Lu Wang now enjoys the feeling of pretending to be forced, and it is very popular in later generations to pretend to be forced, and men are rich and handsome. The woman's pretending to be white and rich is beautiful, but she enjoys it more than pretending to be a fairy!

Li Yan immediately panicked, and hurriedly bowed down to salute, "Uncle atoned for his sins, Li Yan was abrupt!" ”

"It's okay, I said, don't mention these again, let's talk about something serious, as for how you said that I can turn things around and make the Ming Kingdom rich and strong, this is indeed a tricky thing, because I don't have magic now. I have to rely on something else", said Lu Wang, pretending to be a loudspeaker!

"Uncle, do you have other means?" Li Yan is happy!

"Yes, by money! Rely on silver to smash! Lu Wang's tone was firm, just like he looked at Li Yan's gaze, "Li Gongzi, do you know where Daming's current illness is?" ”

"Corrupt officials are rampant! There are few honest people who are officials, and there are almost no good people in the middle of the court! Li Yan blurted out without thinking, and then Lu Wang almost laughed and peed, and he was about to fall into a mess. Li Yan, if you don't have any knowledge here, then I'll be blind and I'll spend my old nose trying to get you out! ”

"I would like to listen to my uncle's high opinion", Li Yan's face turned red, and he didn't know what Lu Wanshi meant!

Hum! Rhuwan sneered. "But there is no one among the people who does not scold the officials, in their hearts, as long as they are officials, there is no one who is not greedy or greedy, but it is true, as long as you go to check, there is almost no one who is honest. But have you ever thought about it, it is to change you Li Yan to sit in a certain position, and change the one who scolds the most to sit in that position. Can he be sure he's clean? Li Yan, can you? You're a leader in the thief army, do you dare to say that you're not doing any good for yourself? That's simply not possible! Even more greedy than others, the reason why those people scolded was because they didn't have a chance to sit in that position, they didn't have a chance to make oil and water, and most of those anger was jealousy."

Li Yan was silent, Lu Wang sneered in a low voice, and shook his head gently, "Corrupt officials are endless, although it is a reason, but it can't be counted as the responsibility for the defeat of a country on corrupt officials!" ”

"As for what you said that there are no good people in the DPRK and China, I want to laugh even more, what is a good person, what is a bad person! Twelve-character moral standards, eating, drinking, prostituting and gambling, abducting and cheating, killing people and setting fires! Looking at the world, who dares to guarantee that they have not committed a single crime! Li Yan, do you dare? ”

"I ......" Li Yan was speechless again, but quickly changed the topic, "Then in Uncle's opinion, what is Daming's illness?" ”

"Natural disasters and man-made disasters are internal and external troubles" Lu Wang sighed: "once in a thousand years, the Xiaoice River period, you can't understand this, a hundred years of great drought, locust plagues continue, so that the people have no harvest, this is a natural disaster, as for man-made disasters, first, the corrupt officials and corrupt officials you said are like carps crossing the river, and second, you thieves who carry big banners and shout for the people's lives are really for your own interests.

"Uncle, does he have a cure?" Li Yan swallowed and foamed, and did not refute a word!

"Yes, money is not everything, but no money is absolutely impossible, fortunately, there is a saying that fighting a war is burning money, and it just so happens that I am a rich man, oh no, a rich fairy!" Rwan's expression is very forced!

"Just have money?" Li Yan was puzzled

"Yes, the top priority is to solve the people's worries, so that the people have to eat, and it is important to be able to live, which I have prepared for, and a large number of rice grains will be on the market in a few days, so that the people can eat."

"The problem is that now I have money and nowhere to buy rice, but it seems that there are other channels to see that my uncle is so confident", Li Yan said and smiled, "What about the others!" ”

"The rest is easy to do, the people's livelihood is solved, and it is time to kill, the so-called strong country wants to strengthen the army, and the next thing is to destroy Li Zicheng, kill Zhang Xianzhong, and level the Manchu Qing! By the way, let's rectify the corrupt officials and corrupt officials", Lu Wang said very easily, but Li Yan began to get excited, "Uncle is a little sure!" ”

"Nonsense, of course it's ten percent, could it be that I worked so hard to come down to you to brag about it!" Lu Wang was a little impatient but did not forget to advise: "Remember not to mention that I am a god in the future, and you are not allowed to mention this to others", Li Yan listened to the three lines, Nima, you are talking about it yourself!

"Uncle taught me a lesson", Li Yan saluted again, "I don't know if my uncle has a good way to rectify corrupt officials and corrupt officials?" ”

"Nope! There is no cure for this disease in ancient and modern times, in China and abroad, and I don't have it either, but I can't stop seeing this disease because there is no good cure, I must see it", Lu Wang said and sighed, "To be honest, I also hate corrupt officials. However, there are corrupt officials who sympathize with the Ming Dynasty, and most of them are pitiful! ”

"What pity do they have, they eat the people's fat and ointment, and the people who harm them are ruined, even if they cut off their heads, why should the uncle sympathize with them!" Li Yan was a little excited,

Lu Wang glanced at him, and there was a hint of mockery on his face: "In your mouth, the rebels are not allowed to rebel because they can't eat, then do you know that many corrupt officials are also corrupt because they can't eat." It's also because you can't eat, you kill people and rebel are justified, people are just greedy for some silver to buy some rice to support their families, but they should be cut by a thousand knives, dare to ask if this is still reasonable? ”

Forehead...... Li Yan was immediately stopped by this question, but Lu Wang obviously didn't want to dwell on this topic, "The salary of Ming officials is too low, and they can't afford to support their families, so they have to be greedy!" So I say I sympathize with them! But corruption is wrong after all, and bribery is forgivable! ”

This......... Li Yan was once again confused by Lu Wang's heresy and crooked reasoning!

"Hey, relatively speaking. Corruption and bribery are all violations of law and discipline, but relatively corruption is active, bribery is passive, and many bribes are for the benefit of others. There is also a pay! As long as you do things for others, it doesn't hurt to get some benefits, and the most annoying thing is the kind of person who collects money and doesn't do things! Lu Wang said with a smile, and then changed the topic with a straight face, "At present, the best way to rectify corrupt officials is to have silver in one hand and a knife in the other!" ”

"It's understandable that this hand knife is below. Dare to ask what does this hand of silver mean? Li Yan asked

"To put it bluntly, it's a wage increase!" Lu Wang sighed, "At least let these officials be able to support their families." But it's a pity that the emperor can't even pay the basic salary now, let alone expect him to give him a salary increase, and in the end this job has to fall on me, but it's a pity that I am now also a little porridge and a monk! I can only come step by step! ”

"Uncle, is the official's salary really low?" Li Yan lowered his head and frowned

Well! Lu Wang nodded, "It's really low, and many times there is no silver, and some goods are used casually, such as tables, chairs, benches, cloths or something, you say they are not greedy and do not take what to live on?" Set up a stall on the street? They are human beings and have to provide for their families."

Seeing that Li Yan fell into deep thought again, Lu Wang looked at the time, it was one o'clock in the morning, and he hurriedly coughed, "It's not early, what about the third question?" ”

Oh, Li Yan quickly came back to his senses, "The third is that I think I am shallow, and Uncle Rong appreciates it, and I want to ask Uncle Rong what is the use of asking me to come?" ”

"Haha, don't you just want to ask me what position I will give you?" Lu Wang smiled faintly, "You can't do it, I don't need it here, but there is a special department in our army that has a place for you!" ”

Oh? Li Yan became interested, "That's ......"

"Now it's called the Military Discipline Department, which is responsible for supervising military discipline, military style, military merits, and logistics and other military affairs. Lou Wan looked at him and smiled!

"In charge of military discipline?" Li Yan was thoughtful, and there was joy on his brows!

"Yes! Li Yan, are you willing? ”

"My subordinates are willing to serve my uncle!" Li Yan immediately bowed down, and even the red lady who was silent next to him kowtowed!

"I hope you can make a difference", Lu Wang smiled lightly, Li Yan clenched his fists, "I will definitely live up to expectations, but my subordinates have an inquiry, and I heard that there is an army under my uncle called Huaxia Army, is this a private army or an officer and soldier?" ”

Lu Wang stood up, silently lit a cigarette, took a puff, and then turned his head to look at Li Yan, "This question is very sensitive, but you must remember one thing: I don't belong to the official family!" It's the official family that belongs to me! ”

"Yes, yes, Uncle is an immortal family, naturally he does not belong to the mortal world!" Li Yan seems to have realized something!

"Shhhh Lu Wang made a very hypocritical gesture of pursing his lips! Then he smiled, "That's all for tonight, let's talk about it tomorrow, let's talk about it tomorrow, and the two of you will rest early", and turned around and left! Li Yan and the red lady hurriedly gave each other away.

"Oh, yes!" As soon as he walked to the door, Lu Wang suddenly stopped, "This is a tent, it's not soundproof, the two of you move at night, so what's small...... Hehe", he said and quickly opened the curtain and ran out, leaving the red lady with a crimson face! (To be continued......)
