"The second, the third, the auxiliary minister, Xuan Chu...... Do you think it is possible to increase Yungui's military expenses next year? ”

In Wu Guogui's study, Wu Sangui, the king of Pingxi, was touching his hooked nose while thoughtfully asking Wu Yingqi, Wu Guogui, Wang Fuchen, and a middle-aged scribe who was a little thin and short with three wisps of beard.

Probably because the question asked by Wu Sangui was too unexpected, there was silence in the study, and it was only after a while that the middle-aged scribe broke the silence: "Lord Wang, if you want to add money, you have to give them a murder!" ”

Wu Sangui's eyes widened when he heard this: "Xuan Chu, do you think this king is not fierce enough?" ”

This middle-aged scribe is Wu Sangui's military advisor, surnamed Liu, named Maoyao, the word Xuanchu, a person from Sichuan, is a loyal minister of the Three Dynasties, first loyal to the old man of Daxi, and then followed Liu Wenxiu to become a loyal minister of the Southern Ming Dynasty, Liu Wenxiu After the defeat in Sichuan, he switched to Wu Sangui and became a loyal minister of the Qing Dynasty. If his first defection to Onishi can be regarded as a "rebellion", then he can also be regarded as a "minister of the three rebellions", and he still has a lot of experience in rebellion.

In addition, he is also a scholar, and he is also famous, knows how to absorb the knowledge of rebellion from books, and is also good at summing up and learning the experience of rebellion in practice. So he followed Wu Sangui to listen to Wang Fuchen's dictation today, and watched Wang Zhongxiao's performance, and his ability to rebel is a little greater......

"Lord Wang, if you are fierce enough, will the court still bully you again and again?" Liu Xuanchu said with a smile, "How many grievances have you suffered over the years in order to reassure the imperial court?" How much suffering have we suffered from the Pingxi Domain? Not to mention anything else, just the prince, in order to pacify the southwest for the Qing Dynasty, there are no less than 100,000 generals and soldiers who originally belonged to Li Zicheng, Zhang Xianzhong and the Ming camp. But how many soldiers did the court give you? ”

As he spoke, Liu Dajun counted with his fingers: "The four towns are only 12,000 when they are added, and the 10th Battalion of Zhongyi only has 12,000 soldiers." Although some of the people in Chuang, Xi, Ming and other places recruited by you for the imperial court were in Sichuan and Guizhou to serve as official troops, the number of people who still followed the prince in Yunnan was still no less than 50,000...... It's twice as many soldiers as the imperial court gave us! The extra soldiers have to be raised by the prince for the imperial court! ”

In addition, there are fifty-three leaders under your domain, and Ding Zhuang has already exceeded 50,000, but the number of soldiers is only 10,000. It's almost five to get out of the first one! But the remaining four dings, the prince, you also have to take care of the court.

You have suffered so many grievances for the court, is it okay for the court to think of you? ”

Wu Sangui sighed: "Isn't it, the old man's strength is more than 100,000, and now he only asks the imperial court for 34,600 people." The old man's loyalty and hard work, why didn't Master Ao know it? ”

"Isn't this because you're too honest, lord?" Liu Xuanchu said, "Honest people are bullied! According to your humble position, instead of being wronged yourself and sharing worries and solving problems for the court, it is better to pick out these 100,000 strong people and Ao Taishi! These 100,000 strong people have all seen blood and been in battle, and half of them have also followed Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong! If you don't take care of the court, they will ......"

"Liu Junshi is right!" Wu Yingqi slapped his thigh, "If it weren't for my father, these 100,000 strong people would have rebelled, and maybe they would have fought all the way to Beijing!" ”

"Ying Qi!" Wu Sangui glared at his son, and then said in a low voice, "But Taishi Ao ...... him."

Wu Sangui mentioned Aobai, and his heart was a little hairy again.

That's the first Baturu in Manchuria!

Liu Xuanchu said with a smile: "Lord Wang, now that the imperial court is about to wither, and the warriors are all old, there is only one Manchurian No. 1 Baturu left to support there." And this worship is arrogant and absessive, forming a party for personal gain, and there is no king, which dynasty and which generation is the way to take trouble! If you want to have a good end, I'm afraid you will have to use this plan to raise a coward! ”

As soon as Wu Sangui heard this, his eyes immediately lit up, Yongli was his "little Koukou", and he was also Aobai's "little Koukou". If he is gone, what will be the Baturu who worships this family?

Therefore, if he is fierce, the value of Ao Bai will be higher!

Wu Sangui muttered in a low voice: "In this way, this king can indeed be a little fierce...... But will Ao Bai misunderstand that this king really wants to rebel? ”

Seeing Wu Sangui's brows furrowed, Liu Xuanchu had no choice but to say to him: "If you are still not at ease, then you can go to Beijing with the third prince and explain your hardships to Master Ao." Like you, Taishi Ao is a pure minister of the public and loyal country, and he will definitely know your hardships. ”

"Then there is Lao Xuanchu," Wu Sangui finally made up his mind, gritted his teeth and said, "Old man, let's give them a murder!" But what kind of murder method do you want? The old man is kind and elegant, and in recent years, he has often recited Amitabha Buddha with Yuanyuan......"

"Lord Wang," seeing Wu Sangui's "kind" expression, Liu Xuanchu had no choice but to think for him, "Otherwise, you will first come to a large-scale military training in Yunnan Province, and gather all the troops under your command, including the green battalion soldiers of Ding Yu and Tuntian, and show them to the eyes and ears of the imperial court!" ”

As he spoke, he turned his head to look at Wang Fuchen.

Wang Fuchen is a servant of the Internal Affairs Office, and when he is released out, he will be the emperor's eyes, of course, he can directly hand the emperor a small report. Through his small report, the little emperor Kangxi can know how fierce Wu Sangui is!

However, according to Wang Fuchen himself, he has never beaten Wu Sangui's small report, otherwise he would not have been a general soldier for more than ten years and would not have been promoted!

Wu Sangui also looked at Wang Fuchen with a smile at this time.

Seeing Wu Sangui's eyes, Wang Fuchen immediately understood, patted his chest and said: "Don't worry, the prince will definitely give the emperor a fold, and tell the little child emperor that your old man has the strength, holding the land of two provinces and holding an army of 100,000." If you want to off your old man, the Qing Dynasty is about to end! ”

Wu Sangui hurriedly waved his hand and said: "It's over, it's over, this king is a loyal minister, a loyal minister of the Qing Dynasty, and he will not rebel." Auxiliary ministers, don't mention the matter of provoking this king. ”

Wang Fuchen replied with a smile: "Okay, okay, I won't mention this, I'll tell the little emperor that your old man is still loyal, and Yungui can't do without your old man." ”

Wu Sangui was finally satisfied, and then he said to Wu Guogui: "Guogui, when you see Taishi Ao after you go back to Beijing, you must find an opportunity to recommend Shikai to him." Shi Kai has real skills, and Ao Taishi is also willing to promote the young talents among the banner people, if Shi Kai can get into his eyes, a blue feather guard can always get it. Even if he can't pick it this time, Taishi Ao will pay attention to Shikai's, and it will not be difficult to go up the road of worshiping Tang A to pick up the guards. ”

Hearing this, Wang Fuchen hurriedly got up and bowed to Wu Sangui: "The prince is very gracious, the humble father and son will never forget it in this life!" In the future, the prince will have a place where the lowly father and son will be used, and he only needs to be informed, and the lowly father and son will serve to die! ”

......

"What? Wu Sangui is going to be murdered? Is he thinking about it and preparing to rebel? ”

Wang Zhongxiao, who returned to Qujing from Kunming City with the old Wang Fuchen, didn't have time to sit down and count the pits from Wu Shicong and Wu Shijue's two good brothers, no, it was a borrowed silver ticket, and he heard a very exciting news from his father.

"No, no," Wang Fuchen waved his hand as he sat down on the chair in his inner study, "Where does Wu Sangui have that thief's guts?" I don't know what he's thinking? Seeing that the road of self-respect was not working, I thought about trying to support the army and self-respect...... This is also forced by the 100,000 mouths below! ”

"Daddy," Wang Jizhen also came back with Wang Fuchen and Wang Zhongxiao, and after listening to the old man's words, he asked curiously, "Hasn't the prince been supporting the army and respecting himself?" ”

Wang Zhongxiao interjected on the side: "Wu Sangui has always supported the army and respected himself in the past, and at the same time he still hid his grandson in disguise. This time, I probably learned how to deal with the white-armored soldiers, so the waist pole is stiff, and I don't pretend to be a grandson. ”

"Don't talk nonsense," Wang Fuchen glared at Wang Zhongxiao, and then said to Wang Jizhen, "Boss, plan to expose the secret fold of King Pingxi's self-respect." ”

"Haole," Wang Jizhen replied with a smile, "Daddy, how many people should we report to King Pingxi this time?" ”

"One hundred thousand!"

"One hundred thousand? So much? Wang Jizhen said, "I only reported 60,000 last time...... It's 100,000 at once, isn't it growing too fast? ”

"Not fast, not happy, this is what King Pingxi himself asked me to report."

Wang Zhongxiao, who was listening to the conversation between Wang Fuchen and Wang Jizhen on the side, was also a little dumbfounded, it turned out that this Wang Fuchen had been working as a secret agent for the imperial court! No wonder Kang Mazi trusted him so much later, and made him the governor of Shaanxi, and made him a marquis.

"Wait!" Wang Zhongxiao saw that Wang Jizhen was about to pick up the pen to prepare a fold for Wang Fuchen, and hurriedly shouted.

Wang Fuchen heard the prestige and looked at Wang Zhongxiao.

Wang Zhongxiao said: "Daddy, this time you should expose Wu Sangui's misdeeds and intention to rebel!" ”

"What?" Wang Fuchen was startled by Wang Zhongxiao's words, and looked back at his son, "Second brother, the prince treats us well, but we can't just sell his old man!" ”

"Daddy," Wang Zhongxiao said with a smile, "how did you casually sell King Pingxi?" This is a great thing that has fulfilled the three families of King Pingxi, Ao Taishi and Little Emperor Kangxi, and the three of them will remember our good! ”

"How?"

Wang Zhongxiao said: "The king of Pingxi will definitely be able to get an extra one or two million military expenses because of your fold, and his old man will not know what you wrote on the secret fold, and he will definitely read your good."

Taishi Ao's position will be strengthened because of King Pingxi's desire, and of course he will also think of your goodness.

And the little emperor of Kangxi ...... If he takes power one day, he must have overthrown Ao Taishi or survived Ao Taishi. And there is no time for the Ao Taishi to be boiled away, and the figure of the first Baturu in Manchuria can be the same as that of an iron beaten! Let's not consider this for now.

If it is to bring down Master Ao, hehe, then it is a young hero! Even Taishi Ao can be defeated, will he still be afraid of Wu Sangui? When the time comes, Wu Sangui will force him to rebel if he doesn't want to! You went to the secret early in the morning to expose Wu Sangui, which means that you are definitely not Wu Sangui's gang. That little emperor still can't treat you as a loyal minister of the Qing Dynasty? When the time comes, give you a governor to do it, and you will be prosperous.

In addition, Daddy, you have followed Wu Sangui for more than ten years, and you have also gained a lot of benefits, if you don't give Wu Sangui a ruthless one, how can the little emperor rest assured that you will be in charge of the town? ”

Wang Fuchen nodded and said, "What you said makes sense...... However, the twists and turns that exposed Wu Sangui's misdeeds could not be sent to Beijing by the imperial court's postal post. ”

"Daddy," Wang Zhongxiao patted his chest, "I'll personally send it to the guard stall of Qianqingmen!" ”

"No way!" Wang Fuchen said to his son with a serious face, "You can't send it to the guard's stall, you have to send it to the emperor or the empress dowager through a reliable way!" ”

"Dad," Wang Zhongxiao was a little embarrassed, "where can the child find such a way?" ”

Wang Fuchen smiled and said, "There will be, when you get to Beijing, there will be a way." ”

He said to his eldest son again, "Boss, you first draw up an excerpt of Wu Sangui's 100,000 troops according to my previous intentions, and send it out tomorrow!" Then draw up an excerpt to expose Wu Sangui's misdeeds, carry it with the second child, and find an opportunity to hand it to the palace! ”
