Lao Cao held Fang La's left arm, Fang La grabbed Lao Cao's right hand, the two heads put their heads together, and muttered a sentence to me, although I don't know what to say, but it also reveals a strange intimacy, regardless of whether it is a good man of Liangshan or Mingjiao, I can't help but look straight.

The heroes of Liangshan are just curious, and the people of the Ming Sect can't help but look forward to it.

Especially Shi Bao and others who have been with Lao Cao for a long time, they have already seen that this person is rare in the world regardless of his vision or skills, and most of the heroes of the Ming Sect are conceited and brave, but they have suffered a fiasco, and they are depressed, and they are even more eager to follow Jiwei and do a shocking career together.

However, if Fang Laruo is still in a coma, once he wakes up, Shi Bao and the others will be difficult to be independent, otherwise how can the heroes of the rivers and lakes live without the word "righteousness"?

I saw that the two of them had been talking for a long time, and suddenly laughed at the same time, and Fang La said loudly: "A gentleman's words? Lao Cao smiled: "Whip the horse quickly!" The two clapped their hands together, and apparently a consensus was reached.

Fang La's spirit was obviously good, he sat up straight and looked at it, and suddenly saw that there were still blood stains on Deng Yuanjue's clothes, and he felt slightly guilty, and nodded at him and said: "Old Deng, my brother has just lost his heart and gone crazy, if you are unhappy, when you have taken care of your body, I will pour wine for you to make amends." ”

When Deng Yuanjue heard this, his bare head shook continuously: "The ministers and monks don't dare, it's useless for the ministers and monks." ”

Fang La sighed and looked at everyone: "Our Yongle Dynasty is like yesterday's spring dream, and now that we wake up, we have to mention it again." You and others, those who can afford Fang Mou, still call Brother Sheng, and those who can't look down on it, whether they are called Holy Fathers or Birdmen, whatever you want. ”

Everyone couldn't help but be surprised when they saw that he was looking downset, and they all looked at Lao Cao, curious about how he persuaded the angry Fang La.

Cao Cao smiled: "You don't have to look at me, I just want you to wait for your brother to be a witness!" Heaven determines my brother, the talent is jealous, and he is folded on the battlefield, but my father-in-law's generation of heroes, how can there be no queen? Therefore, after I married Jin Zhi, I gave birth to a son, and I should take my mother's surname and succeed my father-in-law. ”

When everyone heard this, they immediately knew that Lao Cao had given Fang La his face and lining.

In terms of face, although Fang La has lost his inheritance, it is okay to say that it is passed on to his son-in-law; In the inside, he was originally a grandson, but now he is a grandson, which is naturally very different.

With such a splendid step, no wonder Fang Laken took advantage of the situation, and couldn't help nodding secretly and praising Lao Cao Renyi.

Fang La saw him spitting out his promise in public, and became more and more relieved, and immediately said: "Brothers, Fang Mou's skills are limited, and he brought you and others to make a fuss, I thought that this was to fight the world, who expected that as soon as the officers and soldiers came, the flowers would fall, if it weren't for me, the virtuous son-in-law, Mingjiao was afraid that he would be removed." Only then did I understand that those who have become great things since ancient times must be extraordinary people! Measure a certain instrument, rampant rivers and lakes are more than enough, the deer is not enough, the leader is not enough, you are all the world's talents, in the future, you should wholeheartedly help my virtuous son-in-law, if he achieves a great cause, he has your own good results. ”

When Shi Bao and the others heard this, they were relieved, and they all hugged their fists and said, "Follow my brother's order!" ”

bowed to Lao Cao again: "Little brother and others, I have seen the martial brother!" ”

Cao Cao smiled: "It's already my own brother, so why bother to go through this form?" Get up. ”

A fight, this is over, at the moment everyone reorganizes the banquet, and then arrange the seats, Cao Cao and Fang La Qi in the first place, not long after the wine and food are together, Fang La said: "Virtuous son-in-law, before you said where the old man goes, Jiangnan, Shandong, Fusang, these three places, but what is the matter?" ”

Lao Cao secretly praised him for his interest, immediately put down the wine glass, and said: "I was about to discuss this matter with my father-in-law, but these three places are three ways to live, all of which are chosen by my father-in-law." ”

When everyone heard this, they all stopped drinking and wanted to listen to Lao Cao's explanation.

Cao Cao said: "If your father-in-law is tired of fighting, you might as well go to Shandong to live for a long time, there are mountains and seas there, and you are open-minded, if you are bored, there are heroes on Liangshan, and King Chao is also looking forward to it for a long time." ”

When Fang La heard this, he knew that this was pension, but he was not yet fifty years old at this time, and because of his advanced martial arts, it was inconvenient to have sex with his wife.

After thinking about it, he smiled and said, "The virtuous son-in-law will talk about the other two." ”

Cao Cao said: "Although the cause of the founding of the Ming Sect has not been completed, but in the land of Jiangnan, there are many Ming Sect disciples, if the father-in-law does not want to go far away, he might as well clean up the situation in the south of the Yangtze River, he is changing day by day, just echoing the north and south." ”

Fang La couldn't help but be shocked when he heard this, looked at Cao Cao in a daze, and saw his frank face, and couldn't help but sigh: "In vain, I have been a conceited hero all my life, and I only saw a hero's mind today." ”

Wang Yin, Zu Shiyuan and others were also secretly shaken, in their minds, Fang La is the hero of one side after all, and there is still a day of resurrection of the ashes, how can Dongshan not rise again? Although it was inconvenient for Cao Cao to kill Fang La, it was inevitable that he would be vigilant to avoid recurrence.

Who knew that Lao Cao was willing to leave him in Jiangnan to recruit soldiers and horses, and he didn't care about raising tigers and causing trouble, or fighting against his own family, and he couldn't help but secretly obey.

In fact, everyone thinks badly, although Lao Cao has a mind, but he is not stupid, if he changes Liu Bei, and see if he will let him go, in the final analysis, he still doesn't mean Fang La-

Raising tigers has its own risks, but who is a tiger? That is Liu Yuanjun of "who is worthy of the wine cup of Yu Zi", Sun Ce, the "lion", Sun Quan who "gives birth to a son like Sun Zhongmou", and no matter how bad it is, he is also a "model in the world" such as Yuan Benchu.

Those who seem to be Fang La, in the eyes of Lao Cao, but Zhang Yan and Zang Ba's generation, it seems that after receiving Zang Ba, they were appointed by Xu Erzhou, without a trace of suspicion, and they seem to believe in them, but they actually believe in their own strength.

Fang La himself, naturally, couldn't see the position of his little Karami clearly, first suspected Lao Cao of deceiving him, testing his heart, and then seeing the sincerity in Lao Cao's eyes, he only said that Cao Cao was really a good person, and couldn't help but be moved.

At the moment, he said: "Don't hide it from the virtuous son-in-law, my two masters have disappeared without a trace, and there will be trouble in this matter!" Master Chen hoop bucket not to mention, Master Wang Gong Lao Buddha, deep thoughts, although he clearly regards me as the sect leader, in fact, there are quite a lot of schemes in secret, he will definitely leave a lot of back, just wait for the officers and soldiers to retreat, there will be an article to make! Since the virtuous son-in-law really treats me as a family, how can you let this old man hold you back? You leave a few of the Liangshan brothers to me, so that I can take care of this Mingjiao and hand it over to you. ”

When Cao Cao heard this, his heart moved: "If my father-in-law says this, this matter is indeed suspicious!" My brother Zhu Tong is the most astute but a person, if he is outnumbered and poisoned by officers and soldiers, he will not be able to return it, and now he can't see anyone alive or dead, so it can't be related to those two old sect masters! There are also two Liangshan brothers who parted ways before, so far there is no news, and it is also weird, and the son-in-law also wanted to leave a few brothers to investigate, and it happened that all of them were handed over to the father-in-law. ”

Saying that, he looked at Shi Bao and the others, and said: "Now that they are all a family, my father-in-law doesn't have to avoid suspicion, Mingjiao these brothers, who are familiar with geography and are good at teaching affairs, also stay with their father-in-law to help, wouldn't it be good?" ”

As soon as he opened his words, Fang La became more and more heartbroken, thought about it for a while, shook his head and said, "It's not appropriate!" It's not to avoid suspicion, it's just that these old brothers, although they all have amazing talents, after all, they have been fighting on the rivers and lakes for a long time, and they will do big things with you in the future, how can they be as unruly as they are now? Go to Qingzhou with you, practice well with the army, and it will be of great use in the future! The old man here, there are also people to use, I have an apprentice Yu Wupo, although she is a woman, but she is also practiced, but now she is in Quzhou, waiting for me to summon, enough to help. ”

His words were all in line with Lao Cao's intentions, and he immediately looked at the Liangshan brothers, and said with a smile: "Zhu Tong is missing, there is no news of Mr. Jin Jian and Lei Heng, who of you and other brothers is willing to stay in Jiangnan for a while, for the brother to help the Holy Father, and look for their traces?" ”

Li Kui remembered that he had scolded Fang La before, and his heart was secretly weak, and his head shook like a rattle: "Brother, don't stay here, Tie Niu has been away from home for a long time, and my family Agua must think about her Lao Tzu." ”

Lu Zhishen saw that he was lazy, laughed, and volunteered: "This matter, the Sprinkle family took care of my brother, and then there is my Yang Zhi brother, who once came to Jiangnan to transport Huashigang, and he was also familiar with the road, so he stayed with the Sprinkle family." Which other brother would like to stay? ”

Ma Ling said with a smile: "There is nothing to do left and right, let the younger brother stay, if there is an emergency, it is also convenient to report for the elder brothers." ”

Cao Cao said happily: "I thought it would be best for you to leave one with Dai Zong, since you are willing to be here, and teach Dai Zong to return to the mountain." ”

Shi Jin said: "The little brother should also stay, and then ask Yang Chun and Chen Da to accompany him." ”

Fang La counted them and said with a smile: "With these six extravagant heroes, it is enough to succeed." ”

Cao Cao said: "The water network in the south of the Yangtze River is dense, and it is the place where the brothers on the water come into play. ”

After discussing this matter at the moment, Fang La said again: "Virtuous son-in-law, although I stayed in Jiangnan, I am curious about Fusang, what is the reason why you want to make the old man go to Fusang?" ”

Cao Cao said the situation of Fusang in his own strategy, and finally said with a smile: "Father-in-law, don't blame the son-in-law for being frivolous, thinking that although the Fusang country is lonely overseas, after all, it is also a territory of the boss, and it is a pity to let the savages occupy it in vain?" Therefore, the plan to make this bird occupy the dove's nest is to let my Han family be the blood of his Han family and be his Fuso Emperor! ”

Wang Yin, Shi Bao and others had heard him say that he had made a trip to Fusang before, and knew that he had set up a new emperor and left a number of brothers to control the power, but unexpectedly, Lao Cao made a desperate plan and booked the throne of his own children.

Lao Cao smiled shyly: "I originally made an appointment with the queen, but after returning to China, I sent a general, five hundred elite soldiers, to cross to Fusang in the east, garrison the palace, suppress the ministers, protect my bloodline, and hold the authority of the country. Therefore, I thought that if my father-in-law had time, he could spread the Mingjiao to other places, and he would establish it as the state religion of Fusang, and he would also plan for eternity. ”

When Fang La heard him say this, he was also shocked: This 'Wu Mengde' is really not taboo for meat and vegetarians! How is his move different from Lu Buwei? Besides, Lu Buwei's ability is limited after all, and he will not dare to recognize his son for the rest of his life, if my son-in-law becomes the emperor and recognizes Fusang's son, what can he do?

Thinking of this, my heart moved again: Ah, didn't he promise a son with the surname Jin Zhi? His Wu family's country, naturally it is not the turn of the surname Fang to do it, but after all, it is his son, and even the Fusang wild seed has the throne to do, so my grandson can't? Western Xia, Tubo, Dali, Jiaozhi, the old man will try to conquer a country in the future, so let my grandson be the emperor, is it not allowed to be surnamed Wu?

The more I thought about it for a while, the more feasible it became: My daughter is just the right youth, Wu Zhi is also in the prime of life, and Lang is a concubine, how can anyone give birth to only one son? Maybe my grandson will inherit the throne, ah, when the time comes, one grandson and one grandson, a small emperor and a big emperor...... Didn't my old Fang family send it to the sky?

At the moment, he slapped his leg: "Virtuous son-in-law! Why didn't you say it earlier? If I had said it earlier, I, as a father-in-law, would have gone for you no matter what. The foundation of a country, how can you rest assured that you don't have your own people to guard it? And your brothers, it's not good to be out and about all the time, someone has to replace him and come back. ”

Fang La said while showing a look of distress: "But Jiangnan is also a big deal here, you can't let my master mess around......" He pretended to think, his eyes rolled and turned, and turned to Wang Yin.

After all, he is also a big man, don't look at being played by Lao Cao in the palm of his hand, that is because the opponent is too strong, like an old villain like Murong Bo, who has been playing with intrigues and tricks all his life, Fang La can also detect his thoughts, and slowly put him in the air, how can it be easy to be with him?

Wang Yin was originally his right envoy and a scholar in the court, but now he is the old Cao's father-in-law like him, how can he be indifferent in his heart? At the moment, make a move to push the boat smoothly - my husband is working hard for his son-in-law in Jiangnan, and your old king is ready to go to Qingzhou to enjoy the joy of family? Non-existent, old man, roll it up!

Fang La deliberately showed a look of surprise: "There you have it!" Virtuous son-in-law, you are now lacking in skills, it is when your father-in-law is helping you, and the old man is in Jiangnan, isn't your father-in-law just right? Let him go to Fusang and take care of the foundation for you! ”

Wang Yin was sitting at home, the pot fell from the sky, and he was taken aback: "Me? Brother Fang, I haven't seen my daughter for more than 20 years! ”

Fang La waved his hand and said: "Brother Wang, you go back to Qingzhou with your virtuous son-in-law, and reunite with Ling Ai first, you can gather enough, go to sea from Dengzhou, and go to Fusang in a few days. ”

Without waiting for Wang Yin to answer, Gu Zi said to Cao Cao: "Virtuous son-in-law, your father-in-law, skilled in bows and horses, although your subordinates have all the extravagant heroes, I am afraid that few people will pass him, and he is fluent in literature and ink, guarding Fusang for you, which is complementary to each other, but it is good to exchange for your godbrother to listen to it." ”

Wang Yin shook his head and smiled bitterly, knowing in his heart that this was jealousy from his peers, and it was also a small revenge from the old master. At the moment, he said angrily: "That's it, Brother Fang recommends it so strongly, if Wang pushes it back, it will seem lazy." Virtuous son-in-law, if you can put your mind at ease, I will go to Fusang to take care of you, and then let Gao Yu help, if he really starts a war with the Jurchen, he will also bring a soldier and horse to his hometown to fight. ”

Gao Yu also said: "Reading thousands of books and walking thousands of miles, the younger brother has always regretted that he has not seen and heard widely, but now there are foreign countries to go to, and I am willing to go with Brother Wang!" ”

Cao Cao was overjoyed when he heard this, and got up and hugged his fists: "If this is the case, the cause of Fusang is all in the hands of the two!" ”

After another two or three days, Tong Guan outside suddenly packed up the army and left in a hurry, Cao Cao smiled and said: "The incident in Jinling happened, Tong Guan went here, and he never came back." ”

After all, they have few soldiers, and they are worried about Tong Guan's strong attack these days, and now when they see him retreating, everyone breathes a sigh of relief, and immediately sends someone to invite Fang Qifo and everyone back to the cave, Fang Jinzhi saw that his father and mother were fine, he was excited, hugged and cried again, and learned of his brother's death, and cried more and more.

Cao Cao comforted once, and gathered everyone to tell them all the things that had been decided before, and the three heroes of the Ruan family knew that the four heroes of Taihu Lake did not look down on Shangla, and took the initiative to take the initiative, and Ruan Xiaowu and the four heroes returned to Liangshan to explain the affairs of the navy, and Ruan Xiaoer and Ruan Xiaoqi left behind to help Fang La, while reorganizing the Ming Sect, while inquiring about the whereabouts of the three brothers.

Fang La now pinned his dreams on his future grandchildren, and he had no other thoughts, so he told Shi Bao and the others to do their best, and also abide by the rules of Qingzhou.

Li Kui was so lively, and shouted: "Now Liangshan Mingjiao is a family, how can you not kill pigs and sheep, sacrifice heaven and earth, and ask for a lottery." ”

When everyone heard this, they all praised Li Kui for his carefulness, and Zu Shiyuan managed logistics in the past few days, but he smiled bitterly: "The food in the cave is almost exhausted, and the surrounding villages and squares are also suffering from the scourge of officers and soldiers, but where do you go to find pigs and sheep for a while?" I really can't do it, so I have to find an old horse to kill it. ”

Cao Cao shook his head and said: "I am equal to the officers and soldiers in a series of bloody battles, and the war horses also have merit, and now it is not a shortage of food, how can there be a reason to kill horses, it is really not possible, send Xiahou Cheng brothers, regain his means of hunting kings, and do not restrict roe deer in the mountains, get one or two to deal with it." ”

Fan Rui stood up and said with a smile: "Where is there such trouble, isn't it pigs and sheep?" The younger brother has a bite here. ”

Everyone was surprised, and Zheng Biao was especially surprised: "Brother Dao, I know that you are clever in spells, do you have the ability to become a pig and a sheep alive?" ”

There is a division of teaching: the father-in-law Taishan is busy with involution, and the scenery of the south of the Yangtze River is long. Mo Dao has no retribution in the world, and he swore to become pigs and sheep.
