"Fan Yuxuan, which Fan Yuxuan? What do people look like? ”

Ou Keli's face was full of confusion, although this Fan Yuxuan has a close relationship with Yang Xin, she has always been sneaky when she appears in Daxing, and only the people in the army know that she has a special identity.

Ou Keli surrendered later, Yang Xin directly let him into the people, and then became the prefect of Laizhou, and he can be said to know nothing about Fan Yuxuan.

The catcher bowed and said: "That woman is beautiful in appearance, noble in temperament, with a group of family members, and her arrogance is very arrogant, and she actually calls the prefect by his name." ”

Ou Keli frowned, he really couldn't think of any other noble person named Fan Yuxuan in Laiyang City, but he was also an old fritter in officialdom, since the other party had no fear, he must hold it, and he couldn't slack off.

"Call her in!"

After a while, the head catcher took Fan Yuxuan into the study of the mansion, Fan Yuxuan entered proudly, and when she saw Ou Keli, she didn't salute, but smiled slightly, and said: "Lord Prefect, there are more than 20 craftsmen in this girl's workshop, and I also ask the Lord Prefect to send some capable officials to arrest and bring them to justice." ”

Ou Keli was stunned, it was the first time he had encountered such a case since he took office, and it was also the first time he had encountered such an arrogant bitter master, and he couldn't help frowning again.

He looked at it and saw that this woman was indeed beautiful, but her tone was extremely domineering, just like ordering her subordinates to do things for herself, she was really a little confused, so he said tentatively: "Daxing has a rule, you can't use slaves, you can only hire them, they run away, don't you just save your monthly salary, just recruit some." ”

Fan Yuxuan was speechless, and scolded Yang Xin in her heart, what a bullshit strange rule, she hasn't even paid her monthly salary, how can she save her monthly salary.

With an idea, he continued: "Your Excellency, you know that these craftsmen are producing muskets for the Daxing Army, and the craftsmen have run away, and the muskets cannot be delivered on time. ”

Ou Keli was taken aback, thinking to himself, this woman really has a great background, and she can produce main battle equipment for the army, and her origin will definitely not be small, and she suddenly broke out in a cold sweat.

However, he is also an old fritter in the officialdom, and shirking responsibility is a necessary skill in the officialdom of the Ming Dynasty, and he is naturally one of the masters, and thought about it: "The girl is serious, the production of muskets for the Daxing Army belongs to military affairs, and he is the prefect in the lower position, but he is only in charge of civil affairs, and he has never received an order about the production of muskets. ”

These words were reasonable, Fan Yuxuan was unrefutable, and immediately stood on the spot.

But this is too embarrassing, running violently, but was dumbfounded, and still wanted face, so he said angrily: "Since the prefect is unwilling to help, this girl will go to Daniel Zhang, this girl doesn't believe it, that kid still dares not to listen to me!" ”

Fan Yuxuan was so angry that she stomped her feet, turned around and brushed her sleeves away.

Ou Keli looked at Fan Yuxuan, who went out like a gust of wind, and muttered, "Daniel Zhang? Which Daniel Zhang? ”

The head catcher on the side whispered: "My lord, could she be talking about the commander of the three armies of the Daxing Army, the metropolitan governor Daniel Zhang?" ”

Ou Keli was dumbfounded for a while, and it took a while to slow down, patted the frightened little heart, and said: "Fortunately, the official is witty, and he didn't offend her, this person actually called the name of the commander of the three armies, and threatened to ask him to listen to the order, could it be ......"

The two of them looked at each other, and their hearts were shocked.

"My lord, could it be that he is the future princess?"

The head catcher was covered with cold sweat.

Ou Keli nodded and said: "Only this reason can be justified, this person can't be provoked, you should pay attention in the future, don't offend her." ”

The head catcher hurriedly agreed.

Fan Yuxuan never thought that she was messing around in the prefect's yamen for a while, and she actually caused Ou Keli and others to have such a misunderstanding, and it wasn't until she left the prefect's yamen that she calmed down, feeling that her behavior just now was indeed reckless.

But things still have to be done, just look for Daniel Zhang, such a small thing to find Daniel Zhang, a bit of a fuss, after all, others are now also the commanders of the three armies, a busy day of military affairs.

After thinking about it, he took his family straight to Xingwangfu, right next to the mansion, Yang Xin because after the reorganization, he directly managed too many institutions, and bought a few mansions next to the mansion, which was regarded as a temporary Xingwang mansion, and he usually lived in the backyard of the mansion, and the court was also in the mansion.

When he arrived at the door, he announced his name, and after a while, Kuroko, the general of the pro-military camp, personally greeted him.

The guards guarding the door looked at Fan Yuxuan's eyes at this time and became a lot more respectful, obviously, there were not many people in the entire Daxing who could greet Heizi in person.

"Miss Fan, why are you here, there is news of King Xing?"

Kuroko asked when they met.

Fan Yuxuan's face was full of black lines, and she walked straight in, as if she was her own home.

"He's far away in Goryeo, how can I have news."

Heizi hurriedly followed, he knew that Fan Yuxuan and Yang Xin had a close relationship, and he didn't know how far he had developed, but there was also a probability that this woman would become the future princess, so he naturally didn't dare to slack off, and said with a smile: "I don't know if Miss Fan came to me for something?" ”

Fan Yuxuan took the initiative to sit behind the table where Yang Xin often sits, and the maidservant girl on the side was startled, and Heizi gave her a look, and then she reacted to serve tea to Fan Yuxuan.

Kuroko didn't even dare to sit down, and stood opposite and waited.

Fan Yuxuan was an uncle here, and when she saw that Heizi and Yang Xin's maidservants were respectful to her, her mood suddenly improved, and she said, "Heizi, more than 20 craftsmen have run to the workshop where I produce muskets, and I came to you to help me get people back." ”

When Heizi heard this, he hurriedly said: "Such a trivial matter, why bother to drive Miss Fan to come over in person, just send someone over to spread the word." ”

Turning his head to the soldiers beside him, he said, "You go and call Li Qianhu to come in!" ”

The pro-soldier took the order and left, and after a while, the kitchen knife Li walked in, and now the kitchen knife Li no longer has to guard the door at the gate of Daxing Qianzhuang in the capital, and has been named a thousand households in the pro-military camp by Yang Xin.

He naturally knew this Fan Yuxuan, and he had a share in capturing Fan Yuxuan for the first time, and now seeing Fan Yuxuan sitting in the position of King Xing, he thought to himself, this woman has always been the master's concubine, and the jokes of the guards that day have come true.

Heizi said: "Kitchen knife Li, Miss Fan's musket workshop has run more than 20 craftsmen, you take two hundred people to check and arrest these craftsmen as soon as possible!" ”

Kitchen knife Li hurriedly bowed and saluted, "Master mother, please rest assured, the little one will live up to its mission!" ”

After Yang Xin left, these left-behind soldiers were training all day, and he was bored, but now that he had this errand, he seemed quite excited.

Fan Yuxuan's face suddenly turned red, and she said, "What are you shouting about, who is your housewife!" ”

Kitchen knife Li didn't dare to say any more, turned around and left, and didn't know if he had said the wrong thing, so it was better to run first.

If you want to really go to investigate, it is quite easy, kitchen knife Li took his own soldiers out of the palace, first sent people to the various city gates, and asked, the small flag at the east gate told the truth, these are the personal soldiers of King Xing, where do they dare to hide it.

Kitchen knife Li didn't scold that little flag, after all, this was not the scope of that little flag's purview, and Heizi was purely trying to curry favor with Fan Yuxuan, so naturally he wouldn't make a big deal out of it.

The kitchen knife Li Bing divided into two routes, he went to Weihai in person, all the way to Dengzhou, and the next day the soldiers guarding the gate at the gate of Weihai City learned where Guo Dazhuang and others went.

The kitchen knife Li rushed to the shipyard without stopping, and the soldiers guarding the door were quite surprised, but they didn't expect so many Xingwang soldiers to suddenly come to the shipyard.

Kitchen knife Li was not polite, and stepped forward to say to the sailor Xiaoqi: "This general is Li Gang, a thousand households in the barracks, where are those craftsmen brought by Bai Youguang the day before yesterday, bring this general over to find them!" ”

Xiaoqi didn't dare to slack off, and personally took him to Guo Dazhuang's yard.

Kitchen knife Li Erer didn't say a word, he led people to surround the small courtyard, a guard knocked on the door, Guo Erzhu didn't know the situation, opened the door, and the guards rushed in and tied up all the people inside.

The people of Guojiazhuang were shocked, no one dared to resist, only Guo Dazhuang shouted: "General, wronged!" The villain is not convinced! ”

Kitchen knife Li walked up to Guo Dazhuang and said coldly: "General Ben only carries out military orders, as for your affairs, you don't need to tell me, someone will come to you when you go back!" ”

Guo Dazhuang saw that they all looked indifferent, acted quickly, were powerful, and advanced and retreated in an orderly manner, completely a team of efficient killing machines, and he was also frightened in his heart, and did not dare to shout again.

Aunt Chen was leading someone to give Guo Dazhuang clothes, shoes and socks, and as soon as she walked to the door, she ran out of Bai Youguang in a panic, and said head-on: "Shopkeeper, something happened, a team of Xingwang's personal soldiers rushed in and arrested Guo Dazhuang and them, you go and take a look." ”

Bai Youguang was so frightened that his legs were weak at this time, and as soon as he went to arrest someone, he hid aside and didn't dare to appear, and was about to run to find Aunt Chen, when he happened to run into him at the door.

Aunt Chen was furious, rushed in, and touched the kitchen knife in a moment, and Li Zheng escorted people out.

When the kitchen knife Li saw that it was Aunt Chen, she was about to say hello with a smile, who knew that Aunt Chen's face was full of anger, and she said loudly: "Kitchen Knife Li, stop for the old lady!" ”

Kitchen knife Li's face turned pale, and he hurriedly waved his hand, and the soldiers immediately stopped.

"What's the matter, sister-in-law of the Chen family?"

Mrs. Chen was angry and said, "Who asked you to take people, even the old lady's people dare to take them?" ”

Kitchen knife Li was full of confusion and said, "Sister-in-law of the Chen family, these are the craftsmen of Fan Yuxuan's girl's musket workshop, how did they become your people?" ”

Aunt Chen is not a fuel-efficient lamp, she has already thought of an excuse, and said: "Hehe, this is funny, you said that they are Fan Yuxuan's craftsmen, you ask them, did Fan Yuxuan ever give them a penny?" The old lady is hired by Hua Yue's three or two patterns of silver! ”

Guo Dazhuang thought that there was no hope, the Fan family was able to mobilize King Xing's personal soldiers, it can be seen that the strength in Daxing is so strong, who knew that there would be a turnaround, his own master was so powerful, even King Xing's personal soldiers dared to scold, and it seemed that the other party was still afraid of her, and couldn't help but be even more surprised.

So everyone shouted: "The Fan family has not given us a penny of copper plates!" ”

Kitchen knife Li was still a little confused, scratched the back of his head, and said, "Sister-in-law of the Chen family, even if Miss Fan didn't pay them, that's the Fan family's business, what does it have to do with us?" ”

Aunt Chen smiled and said: "It had nothing to do with us before, but now, they are already the people of my Daxing business musket workshop, so they have something to do with us." ”

Kitchen knife Li finally understood, his eyes widened, and he said, "Sister-in-law of the Chen family, are you the one who is clearly robbing Miss Fan?" ”

Aunt Chen was unceremonious and said, "What's wrong with robbing?" Everyone does business, fair competition, I have a high salary for the business, they are willing to follow me, so what can Fan Yuxuan tolerate me? ”

When the kitchen knife Li heard this, he was immediately embarrassed, and said: "But this is the military order of the sunspot, and, sister-in-law of the Chen family, you offended Miss Fan like this, if she becomes our housewife, how will you get along in the future?" ”

Aunt Chen was stunned for a moment and said, "What housewife?" I haven't skimmed the eight characters yet! Besides, even if she marries King Xing, she can only be small, and there is a princess in front of her! My brother still settles the account, she is hers, I am mine, everyone's well water does not interfere with river water, I am fighting for the interests of you people, the income of the musket is so big, how can the Fan family take it all! ”

The last sentence is the most lethal, the kitchen knife Li is not stupid, the money is earned by the Fan family, even if Fan Yuxuan marries Yang Xin in the end, then the money has nothing to do with herself, if she earns it for Aunt Chen, it will be different, she runs a Daxing business, and she has her own share of the money she makes.

Kitchen Knife Li finally compromised and asked, "Sister-in-law of the Chen family, what should I do now, how can I explain to Heizi when I go back?" ”

Aunt Chen laughed and said, "You confess to the sunspot!" You and I are both people of King Xing, and it is King Xing who has to be explained, and now that he is not at home, do we people have to take care of his home for him?

You go back and tell Heizi, these people are in my hands, and now Guo Dazhuang is already a shopkeeper under my Daxing firm, he wants someone, tell him to go to King Xing, as long as King Xing nods, he can do whatever he wants, he is a general of the guard battalion, I'm afraid he doesn't have such a big right! ”

The kitchen knife Li waved his hand and ordered: "Let everyone go!" ”

The soldiers hurriedly released people, the leading 100 households among them are nationals, of course they know how to choose interests, after all, people have a selfish side, if Yang Xin ordered it, they would not dare to be greedy, and the sunspot would be another matter.

Kitchen knife Li said sneeringly: "Sister-in-law of the Chen family, don't be angry with Heizi, he doesn't know that these people have been accepted by you, but he just doesn't want to offend Miss Fan, I'll go back and tell you, I believe he will definitely be on your side." ”

Aunt Chen was quite satisfied with the reaction of the kitchen knife Li, and said: "You are right to do this, I believe that King Xing will also support me, King Xing and Fan Yuxuan talk about business, but they have never left any affection, I know King Xing too well, you can rest assured!" ”

Kitchen knife Li He said with a smile: "This is the best, those of us who are soldiers, which of us must not rely on King Xing and the sister-in-law of the Chen family to make money to support the family, we will be responsible for the war, and it is up to you to make money." ”

After speaking, he said goodbye and left, and the team was neat and orderly.

Guo Dazhuang and the others were also deeply surprised, they didn't expect that this Aunt Chen was just the shopkeeper of a business, but she had such authority in the Daxing Imperial Court, and even the generals of the pro-guard battalion had to be obedient, and they consciously found the right backer, and they would no longer have to be afraid of the Fan family in the future.

After the soldiers left, everyone knelt down, and Guo Tianzhuang said movingly: "Thank you to the shopkeeper for being the master of the little ones, the shopkeeper is our great benefactor!" ”

This time, the mud legs of Guojiazhuang were really scared, and they were all grateful to Aunt Chen.

Aunt Chen smiled and said: "You don't have to be polite, remember in the future, as long as it is for the good of Xingwang, it is for the good of Daxing, that is, for your own good, others don't have to pay attention, you can just find me if you have something, our Daxing business is only responsible for Xingwang, except for Xingwang, no one can manage us!" ”

Guo Tianzhuang was shocked in his heart, he didn't expect this Aunt Chen to have so much power, this is the rhythm of military and political all-in-one, so what else do you have to worry about in the future?

Naturally, everyone agreed in unison, and everyone was full of confidence at this time.

Kitchen knife Li hurried back to Laiyang, returned to Xingwangfu to resume his life, after hearing this, Heizi also felt that kitchen knife Li did the right thing, after all, they were closer to Aunt Chen, and they were the first batch of nationals.

After the kitchen knife Li finished speaking, he asked, "Heizi, how should I reply to Miss Fan now?" ”

Heizi thought for a while and said, "You explain to the people below, don't spread this matter, let's drag it out first, and then make a decision when King Xing comes back, Miss Fan's side, just tell her that she didn't find anyone, and we are still trying to find it." ”

Kitchen knife Li nodded in agreement, thinking, or Heizi will be a man, not offended at both ends, in the middle and mud, he has to learn a little in the future, after all, Heizi has been with Yang Xin for a longer time, and he has been handling things more smoothly.

……

Longren Mansion, Jin Shengnan concentrated most of the Imperial Forest Army in the city, ordered someone to carry a large box in front, and said loudly to the audience: "Soldiers, the Ping'an Dao Shui Shi outside the city does not listen to the holy decree of my king, the Royal Forest Army still insists on attacking the city in the city, has become a rebel, and the time has come to serve the court, today, my king rewards everyone with one or two taels of silver per person, those who kill the enemy bravely, behead the enemy, award two taels of silver, cash on the same day, for the sake of my king, please soldiers bravely kill the enemy!" ”

After speaking, with a wave of his hand, the pro-soldiers began to give the soldiers silver.

Sure enough, the magic of money is irresistible, the loose Royal Forest Army took the silver, their morale was greatly boosted, and they were ready to fight hard, they didn't have the courage to deal with the Qing army, they fought the rebels outside the city, and dealt with those of their own people, no matter how they said it, they were also the Royal Forest Army, which was not false at all.

After receiving the silver, Yang Xin ordered 8,000 Imperial Forest Army to go out of the city to line up, and the enemy's morale immediately plummeted.

Li Chengxiu is now difficult to ride a tiger, so he has to bite the bullet to boost morale, but the effect is not great, as soon as the two sides fought, they ran away with reinforcements from several city lords.

Yang Xin stood at the head of the city to watch the battle proudly, the two teams of Goryeo people in the city fought selflessly, the blood flowed like a river, so it was not tragic, Lin Fatzi said on the side: "King Xing, you see, the sailor ran a lot of people, and the Royal Forest Army has the upper hand." ”
