"Fang Aiqing, I once said that whoever obtains this city for me will belong to him with all the jade silk of the children in this city, do you remember?" Emperor Han Xian suddenly said this, and everyone was in high spirits, knowing that he was going to reward the heroes.

"The minister remembers that the emperor is blessed with all the heavens, and the ministers can only make a small contribution, all of which are thanks to His Majesty's blessings." The direction is out of the line of salutes.

Xu Haifeng turned his head and glanced at him, and he couldn't see that the eldest brother was really good at shooting horses, why hadn't he seen it before. He didn't know that these words were really the most ordinary in the officialdom, and he didn't know how much more than this fleshy one, Xiang Ming grew up in the family of the official eunuch, and it was difficult to know it.

"Fang Aiqing listened to the seal." Emperor Han Xian smiled slightly and said.

"The minister is here."

"I have named you the Marquis of Pingxi, and Lin'an City is your fief for a hundred miles."

"Your Majesty's imperial grace is immense, and the minister is not very grateful, but this victory is really the merit of General Xu, and the minister does not dare to take it. I beg your Majesty to allow the General to share it with me. ”

Emperor Han Xian's face changed slightly, and immediately returned to normal, and he laughed loudly: "Okay, Aiqing's words are very satisfying, and this city will be shared by the two of you." ”

"Thank you, Lord Longen, long live your majesty, long live, long live." Xiang Ming hurriedly pulled Xu Haifeng beside him to kneel down and thanked him.

"Your Majesty, the minister still has one thing." Seeing that Emperor Han Xian seemed to have the intention of retreating from the dynasty, Xiang Ming hurriedly shouted.

"Oh, what's the matter, just tell me." Emperor Han Xian asked pleasantly.

"Emperor Qi, when the minister entered the city, the Caesar people had not had time to destroy the grain, at this moment the grain and grass in the city were piled up, the minister on behalf of the people of the city dedicated it to His Majesty, wishing His Majesty to defeat Caesar, destroy the Huns, dominate the world, achieve peerless achievements, and live forever in the annals of history."

"Hahaha...... Well, a good one defeats Caesar, destroys the Huns, and dominates the world. Since you are faithful, I will laugh at it. Emperor Han Xian laughed happily and said, "Swing and go back to the palace." ”

As soon as Emperor Han Xian left, the rest of the ministers rushed up in a honeycomb and congratulated the two of them. Although Xu Haifeng did not become an official and became a knight, he was already satisfied with half of the foundation of Lin'an City, and he was so happy that he couldn't even close his mouth at the moment.

When everyone left, Xiang Ming glanced at him and took the lead in leaving, Xu Haifeng understood it in his eyes and followed closely. As soon as I walked outside the hall, I heard someone shouting: "General Xu go slowly." ”

As soon as Xu Haifeng heard the voice, he knew that it was Tong Yiyi, and in desperation, he had to make a gesture to Xiang Ming and turned around to greet him: "General Tong, we meet again." ”

"General Xu is very powerful this time, and he has made great achievements in the world, and the old man is not wrong." Tong Yi said with a smile.

"Where, it's just the emperor's blessing, why is General Tong here?" After listening to so many people in the hall, his biggest gain was that he also learned a few sycophants, and he didn't expect to use them so quickly.

Tong Yiyi looked left and right, and saw that no one was paying attention to his side, so he pulled the sea breeze and motioned him to walk towards the dark corner.

Xu Haifeng was very curious about his behavior, and couldn't help but follow.

When it came to the dark corner, basically not many people's eyes could see here, Tong Yishen mysteriously took out a stack of folded paper from his arms, handed it to Xu Haifeng, bowed down and said: "Brother, this is the salary that you deserved from the fifth column before the expedition, I forgot to hand it over to you, now I will make up for it, and please spare me for the sake of our brother's friendship." ”

Xu Haifeng was stunned, and immediately understood the meaning of his words, and immediately helped Tong Yi up and said, "Where did General Tong come from, didn't you give me these salaries before the expedition?" ”

After hearing this, Tong Yiyi let out a long breath and said: "Brother, brother, I finally didn't see the wrong person this time, don't worry, I will definitely have an explanation for this favor." ”

After sending Tong Yi away, Xu Haifeng spread out the stack of silver tickets and saw that they were all large silver tickets of more than 1,000 taels, and there were dozens of them. That's tens of thousands of taels of silver. He carefully hid the silver ticket close to his body and hurried towards the place where the direction was ringing.

Although there are a large number of people here, Xiang Ming has been prepared for a long time, and every official can get a courtyard to rest according to the size of his official position. In order to avoid suspicion, Xiang Ming deliberately chose two smaller courtyards for the two of them to live separately.

After entering the inner courtyard, the two sat down separately, and Xiang Ming said: "Second brother, this time the credit is made by you, but I have the lion's share, you won't blame me." ”

"Where did the eldest brother come from, if there was no guidance from the eldest brother, I would still be nervous now, I don't know what to do? How can it be so majestic today? Xu Haifeng hurriedly said that he had no worries.

"Little brother, it's not for my brother to steal your credit and limelight." Xiang Ming took a sip of tea, moistened his dry throat and said: "You are in the limelight today, the whole army, who doesn't know the Black Flag Army of the fifth column?" This is a good thing, but at the same time it is a bad thing. ”

"Why?" Xu Haifeng asked puzzledly, since it is famous, of course it is a great good thing, how can it become a bad thing?

"The wood is beautiful in the forest, and the wind will destroy it. Little brother, the tree is a big wind. The direction is deep and profound.

"Is anyone going to trouble me?"

"It's not to trouble you, it's to get involved in right and wrong."

"What?" Xu Haifeng was confused when he heard it, how could Brother Fang, who had always been bold in his heart, suddenly become so unclear.

"Little brother, you remember, if you are transferred to the Beijing Division in the future, and you encounter something difficult to decide, and remember it to our mansion, ask the old man of my family for advice, don't make a hasty decision."

"Big brother, the more I hear what you say, the more confused I become, so let's make it clear." Xu Haifeng frowned.

"It's not that I don't say it, but the time has not come, and if I say it, it will make you worry in vain, in short, you remember that the family affairs of the imperial family are not something that we courtiers can interfere with."

Xu Haifeng rolled his eyes and said, "Isn't that nonsense?" Of course, we are not in a position to stir things up. ”

Xiang Ming smiled mysteriously and said, "You weren't qualified before, but now it's different. Forget it, let's not talk about these, little brother, although your troops are strong and brave, but after all, the foundation is still shallow, if you lead this city alone, I am afraid that there are definitely not a few people who secretly stretch out their hands, and when the time comes, God will bless you if you can enter 12/10 of your pockets. ”

Xu Haifeng nodded sympathetically and said: "Yes, these dog officials, when they fight, they don't see anyone, but they are not merciless when they take money." ”

His Fifth Column had a total of 5,000 men in its predecessor, but now it has only 3,000 slave soldiers, and the slave soldiers are not paid, and their equipment is far from that of the regular army. Although Gu Dao Beard responded to his needs during the training, as soon as he left the training camp, all the equipment was recovered, and each slave soldier was only issued with a set of black clothes and an inferior steel knife. However, he asked Tong Yiyi privately, and learned that in the documents submitted to the Ministry of War, the fifth column was not downsized, and it was still a quota of 5,000 people, and it was configured according to the equipment of the top regular army. The annual salary of 5,000 people is 50,000 taels of silver, and a set of equipment for top soldiers costs 5 taels of silver.

Although he had long known that it was no secret that the army was paid empty salaries, he was still taken aback by such a large spending. And there are only a handful of people who have the right to move this money, and with Xu Haifeng's current status, it is impossible to pursue it at all.

This time, if it weren't for Xu Haifeng's great achievements, the future would be limitless, and Tong Yiyi would not have come to send back the silver ticket to show his goodwill. Of course, if Tong Yiyi is the mastermind who moved this money, and he doesn't believe that he killed Xu Haifeng, someone must have instructed him to do this, and in this matter, the most suspicious thing is undoubtedly Marshal Gu Daofu, the commander of the Western Front battalion, just by Gu Daofu's promotion of Xu Haifeng, this matter must not be raised by Xu Haifeng, otherwise he will become a typical villain.

In fact, Xu Haifeng did wronged Gu Dao Beard, what kind of person Gu Dao Beard was, and how could he take the 100,000 taels of silver to heart. The person who did this was actually Cheng Ming, but of course this crime had to be borne by Gu Dao Beard.

"Little brother don't be angry, this bad habit is not so easy to change, even the father is tricky. Fortunately, now this city has half of my name, as long as the Fang family is in charge, those who dare to stretch out their dog's paws will have to weigh it. ”

"It's still the eldest brother who is thoughtful, and the younger brother admires. It's just that in this way, wouldn't the eldest brother offend many people, but I'm afraid that it will attract revenge. ”

Xiang Ming shook his head and said, "Since I was born in the Fang family and am the eldest son and grandson, I have long been used to all this. What's more, after all, I still have the backing of my entire family, and there are many people who want to be unfavorable to me, but there are only a few who dare to take action, so you don't have to worry. It's just that we can't pull out a dime, some characters still have to do a little bit of something, and where they can't be saved, they must not be saved. ”

"Yes, the younger brother obeys the orders of the eldest brother. By the way, big brother, why do you want to dedicate food to the emperor alone today, and do you have to prepare some other things? ”

"Ha, little brother, remember when we met, I told you what is most lacking in the army now?"

"I see, it's grain and grass." Xu Haifeng remembered what he said last night, and suddenly understood.

Xiang Ming praised: "It is grain and grass, the emperor hoards the army here, every consumption is an astronomical amount, even if we don't send it, he will think of asking for it, instead of waiting for him to speak, it is better for us to take the initiative to pay tribute, but we can win his favor." ”

"The eldest brother is smart, and the younger brother admires the five-body throwing to the ground." Xu Haifeng slapped his thigh heavily and said.

"I have asked the adjutant to check the property of this city, presumably there will be a perfect result tomorrow, and you and I will discuss it carefully when the time comes."

Xu Haifeng hurriedly responded, chatted a few more words, Xu Haifeng said goodbye, the courtyard of the two lived next to each other, and Xu Haifeng soon returned to his temporary residence.
