Yongzheng resolutely killed his son, although there was no clear edict to announce to the world, but Hongshi because of "perverse and indulgent", he dismissed the prince at that time, and a few days later he "committed suicide in shame". Within a few years, Yun Zhi died of Yun Zhi Yun Yu, imprisoned Yun Zhi and "Uncle Long Keduo", plus Hongshi's biological son, all Xun Quaker who had party aid was killed, and the real bud Tho was not good on the iron face, and the family affection did not move his strong intestines. This kind of law-only practice and refusal to recognize the six relatives is really shocking to the world and shocks the obscenity and filth of officialdom. As far as the officials and landlords of the world returned to the public on the fire of Yongzheng's new policy, they changed to raise incorruptible silver, spread the money into the temple, and the people and the people ran out of food as an errand...... These measures are still slanderous in their hearts, and they grit their teeth and hatred for Tian Wenjing's "villain behavior" of deliberately exploiting and pretending to be successful in applying for the exam, but it is true that no one dares to make a call for a horse and attack these "model governors" who are his tree. Not only Yongzheng, but also Zhang Tingyu, Ortai and other ministers also felt that the order was forbidden to act vigorously and resolutely, and government affairs were rarely hindered.

Government affairs are easy, but military affairs are very tricky, Yunnan and Guangxi have changed their land and returned to the stream, and the local Tusi has not been satisfied, and the newly selected state and county officials have been sent to these poor and remote places to be officials, and there are many things to do, and there is no oil and water to squeeze, and many local prefectures and counties have no supervisors, and they let the officials go up and down to knock off the Miao Yao people and provoke the people to revolt. Since the fifth year of Yongzheng, Zhenyuan Tusi Diao Han led the Miao people to gather people to set off cannons, burn the government office, and use troops to recruit and suppress several times, all of which are "soldiers come and I go into the mountains, and soldiers go and I come again", and they can't be subdued. Ortai was the pivotal minister of "changing the land and returning to the stream" and joining the "holy decision", and of course he was deeply disturbed, and personally asked Ying to return to Guiyang to preside. Yongzheng naturally complied with it, and still ordered him to supervise the military affairs of Yunnan and Guizhou as the minister of military aircraft, and ordered Ha Yuansheng, the governor of Guizhou, to be the general of Yangwei, and Dong Fang, the governor of Huguang, to be the deputy general. Yue Zhongqi's army since the Yongzheng seven years officially swore to send troops, the army was divided into the North Route Army and the West Route Army, pincer westward, Yue Zhongqi sat in the West Route Army, by the general Ji Chengfu, deputy staff leader Zha Liao nursed the North Route Army. Before setting out on the expedition, he was sure of ten victories, and wrote heartily: one said that the main virtue, the second said the heavens, the third said the geographical advantage, the fourth said the people, the fifth said the grain and grass storage, the sixth said that the soldiers were excellent, the seventh said that the chariots and cavalry camps were perfect, the eighth said that the firearms and weapons were sharp, the ninth said that the series of battles, the attack and defense were appropriate, and the tenth was the expedition of soldiers and horses, and the temperance was neat. It is not difficult to assert that the Clown jumping off the beam is not difficult to reach out. Yongzheng also praised Zhong Qi's eldest son Yue Rui as the governor of Shandong, personally chose an auspicious day to see off Yue Zhongqi in the Taihe Palace, and ordered Yue Rui to send his father directly to the Xining army to show his gratitude.

Just as the banner was full of soldiers and horses, and the day was rising, suddenly the front army came to report that Zhun Geer sent a special envoy to Beijing to meet him, passing through Xining, and asked to see Yue Zhongqi.

At that time, it was July of the ninth year of Yongzheng, the grassland of Populus euphratica was green and the grass was lush, the city of Xining was windless and sandless, and the water was like a belt across the sky and wilderness. Yue Zhongqi had just returned from patrolling the camp, and he couldn't help but be stunned when he heard the news, the chief soldiers Zhang Yuanzuo, Fan Ting, and Ye Daxiong were all by his side, and asked in an inquiring tone: "See him?" ”

"This is a delaying tactic to eliminate Arabutan." Zhang Yuanzuo said. He had fought with Geldan twice with Zeng Yun and Nian Qianyao, and he knew that this little Alabutan was treacherous and abnormal, so he pondered for a while and said: "Since he is the envoy of the court, he will not do our business, let him go to Beijing, what should we do is still not moving." Ye Daxiong is a veteran soldier and said: "At this time, morale is booming, and this kind of thing is most taboo." I know that I want to make peace, and some flag people have heard that they can not fight, and it is too late to burn incense and kowtow! According to the suggestion under the mark, Quan Dang took the spy and cut off his bird's head, and the three armies showed his mother! Fan Ting said, "What if he comes to surrender?" What does the emperor think? What is the loss of seeing me? Ye Daxiong said: "What are you muttering about this kind of thing? If the battle is won, it will always be justified, and if the battle is defeated, it will be useless. The general will not accept the life of the foreign monarch, slaughter this rabbit cub, and return to the court with victory to talk to Lao Ye! ”

Several generals disagreed, Yue Zhongqi was in trouble for a while: the Manchu and Han generals in the army were not in alignment, the Manchus were arrogant and incompetent, the Han people were disgruntled and could not afford to provoke, Telei was ordered to go to Beijing to meet Yongzheng, and he intercepted and killed him halfway. With Yongzheng's arbitrary authority, parents and children are not tolerated, in case of a slight military defeat in the future, the catastrophe is only in an instant. But the interview with Telei is indeed an obstacle to morale. After thinking about it for a while, he said, "See him in the side ear court." As he spoke, he took Ma Ben Goshha into the general's office, and sat down in the ear room where the soldiers were on duty on the west side of the main hall, and soon saw someone come in with a Mongol in his fifties. Yue Zhongqi didn't wait for him to sit down, and said, "Your name is Telei?" Now that the two families are fighting each other, they are not waiting for death in Khalkha, what is the noble thing to do in our army? He said and looked at the interpreter.

"Don't want this crappy interpreter." Telei laughed before he could finish listening to the interpreter's translation. "I can speak Chinese, I have been in the tea and horse business in Zhangjiakou with my father since I was a child, and my mother is also Han, so I have a very close relationship with the Han people." He is the kind of Mongolian man who is very deep and capable, with thick eyebrows growing longevity eyebrows on his black and red face, a pair of eyes that have been full of vicissitudes of life, and a kind and gentle smile on his face. He speaks fluent Chinese with a slight accent from northern Jin, and if he doesn't know it, he can't hear that he is a Mongolian. Telei paused for a moment and said, "I don't give the general a battle watch, I have a mission to fight for peace." ”

Yue Zhongqi looked at Telei with an unbelievable gaze, and said quietly, "Who can believe you? You Dzungar people have sent envoys to Beijing several times, but they will only deceive people, and they will not tell a word of truth. While respectfully meeting the court in Beijing, he marched into Qinghai-Tibet behind his back! I see that you don't mean anything other than to be curious, to see what you are. ”

"I'm not a 'thing,' I'm a person." Telei said seriously, "Why can't General Yue speak Chinese well?" ”

With this misunderstanding, it became clear that Telei was a Mongol after all, and several generals couldn't help but cover their mouths. Yue Zhongqi asked, "Who sent you?" Zero Arabutan? ”

"Ah, General." Telei probably felt that it was hot in the house, so he rolled out one sleeve and said: "In "Sun Tzu", it was once said, 'Knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent will not be defeated in a hundred battles', and the general can be said to know nothing about my Junggar situation. Tseling Alabutan had died of illness in November last year, and now our Dzungar tribes are in the hands of the Great Khan Taiji, the Great Khan of Kaldan. The Khan of Galdance has always respected the central Taoist system, admired the Chinese civilization, guarded the western frontier as the central barrier, and repelled Cossack aggression several times. His subjugation of Khalkha Mongolia was granted by Kangxi Bogda with an edict, and it was also sincere to revise the table and claim peace. I have come to dispel misunderstandings and strive for peace. ”

"Misunderstanding?" Yue Zhongqi smiled, "In the spring of the second year of Yongzheng, Luo Buzang Tenzin, who was defeated by my heavenly soldiers in Qinghai, didn't you harbor it?" ”

Telei bowed in his chair and said, "The general must know that the political situation at that time was different from the current one, and we were in power at that time. In view of the relationship between the old Alabutan, the old Geldan and the Luo Bu Zang family, they could not be rejected, and the Han people called this 'Yiyi'. But Lobzang Tenzin is a poisonous snake, a jackal on the steppe. He collected the old tribes in our territory, contacted the remnants of Geldan, and led his troops into the account under the pretext of celebrating his birthday, and wanted to kill the young Galdan Tseling. Our Taiji Khan, who was about to make peace with the imperial court, swept them all together and ordered me to escort Lobzang Tenzin to Beijing as a sign of the loyalty of our Bogda Khan's court. But—" He frowned and said to the stunned Yue Zhongqi, "I walked to the Sanye River in the west of Koshetusi, and I encountered the general's troops advancing west and camping. The fleeing Mongols told me that General Yue was going to lead his army to sweep through the Khalkha Mongols. I could not enter the unpredictable land with the loyal heart and body of our master, so I temporarily ordered Lobzang Tenzin to be escorted back to Ili. General, every life is precious, please relay my words to His Majesty Yongzheng, and I will remain in the army as your hostage. Okay so, General? ”

"Okay." Yue Zhongqi listened to a seamless speech, and he couldn't find anything wrong with it for a while, so he got up and said, "I'll play it." You will wait in my camp for about half a month, and I will set you a small courtyard to live in. You and your servants will be taken care of by someone for their meals, but you can't deviate at all, otherwise you won't blame me for being ruthless in military law. ”

On the same day, Yue Zhongqi prepared a detailed presentation of the situation of Telei's coming to the court, and said, "Ce zero Alabutan is treacherous, and there is no trustworthiness, and what Telei said is not credible." Please send Telei to the Dharma on the spot to boost morale. ”

Twelve days later, he received an edict from Yongzheng to step up the 800 miles of Zhu's criticism:

The husband surrenders the soldiers without a fight, and the victory is also. Unheard of in the East? Gardance can guard the way of his ministers and prostrate himself, and I don't have to sweep the cave with a plough. Te Lei was sent to Beijing, and after I personally inquired, our army postponed its westward advance. For fear that Telei will be deceitful, the vigilance must not be slackened, and you will be properly deployed and mediated by military defense, and you can also enter Beijing with Telei. Chin this!

Yue Zhongqi knew that this move was inappropriate, but his will was unambiguous, and Yongzheng's temperament was not allowed to be violated at all. had to arrange military affairs overnight, brought dozens of personal soldiers, and escorted Telei to Beijing on horseback. The tribute camel team brought by Telei was passed into Beijing by the post station.

Dozens of horsemen and horses traveled day and night, and when they arrived in Beijing, it was almost the Mid-Autumn Festival in August. At that time, Henan, Shandong, Shanxi were harvested, it was the time when the breeze and the chic Golden Valley appeared, and the people in Beijing were already busy making moon cakes, tying rabbits, offering the little God of Wealth, and walking the Ramadan Palace, which was lively. Outside the city, Danfeng dyes autumn and colorful mixed, the mountains contain light green clouds and thin Xiling, Yongding River Ziya River is clear and flowing, the willows on both sides of the river are not old, and they are still sad and blue. It is the best weather in Beijing, everyone is running all the way, but they are covered with dust, tired eyes and swollen legs, where do they have the heart to watch? That night, he rested at Luheyi, Zhang Tingyu had come to condole, and sent a message to enter the park tomorrow and summon Galdan's special envoy Telei. Also there were Yu Hongtu, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, Li Hansan, the newly promoted Gyeonggi Province, and Chen Xuehai, the director of the Foreign Domain of the Ministry of Rites. That Chen Xuehai is still rapping, and the river is well repaired, and it is a bumper harvest in various places, and he said that the Netherlands, Japan, France, and Rakshasa "all countries come to court". How respectful are the Oriental devils and Western devils, long live the joy and sickness, and most of them are gone...... As soon as he had something to say, he intervened and made a noise, and everyone didn't care about him. After a while, the lively conversation dispersed.

In the early morning of the second day, Yue Zhongqi's crown robe and tracks stopped and came to the double gate of Changchun Garden with Telei. Gao Wuyong was already waiting, and as soon as the two of them got off the horse, he announced the order: "Telei is here to wait for the order." Yue Zhongqi went in. Seeing Terei respectfully kneeling down. Yue Zhongqi didn't say anything, pursed his lips and followed Gao Wuyong into the garden, and went to Ningju.

"Dongmei has worked hard all the way." Yongzheng sat cross-legged on the big kang, Li Wei and Zhu Shi were servants, and there was a case and a chair in the west of the kang by the south window, but Hongli was sitting. Seeing Yue Zhongqi come in and salute, Yongzheng smiled and said, "Hongli helped me Dongmei." These are all my relatives, sitting and talking. ”

Yue Zhongqi looked at Yongzheng, and saw that Yongzheng was wearing a camel-colored Jiang silk jacket, covered with an embroidered stone Qingjiang silk cotton gold dragon coat, with beeswax pearls hanging between his neck, a gold head cord tie tied around his waist, and a velvet gauze crown, sitting in the big kang of the East Pavilion, and his spirit was much better than when he parted two years ago. It's just that his body is thin, and even his clothes look a little out of place, Yue Zhongqi looked at Yongzheng, and said while sitting: "Shengyan has lost a little more than when the slave left, and the hair on the sideburns is even paler." Is the emperor still just a vegetarian? The slave is a fighting man, and he doesn't understand the Buddha's reasoning, but he also uses three animals to offer to the Buddha, and he can't help but eat meat. Therefore, the emperor also wants to increase some meat. When the slave left, the emperor wore a fasting card, and he still wears it today. "I love vegetarian food, but I can't help it. But today is the seventh day of Tian Wen's lens, and I have exceeded him. Yongzheng coughed, and a little eunuch hurriedly held the gargle over, but after a while without phlegm, he sat up straight again, and sighed: "You don't know, Tian Wenjing has gone." There is one less person in the community...... Don't talk about that, let's talk about your Tere. Yue Zhongqi passed from Henan, Tian Wenjing died, and the local gentry and firecrackers rang out to congratulate, and he witnessed it with his own eyes. He couldn't say this in Yongzheng anyway, because he pressed his hands on his knees, he talked about many affairs of the military expedition to the west, and talked in detail about the experience of meeting Telei, and said: ""Spring and Autumn" clouds are full of energy, and then decline, and three are exhausted, and morale is the most important. The Dzungar Department has always been capricious and cunning, and he hoped that the emperor would return his tribute book and rebuke the envoys to show the determination of the Celestial Empire to fight against the enemy. The minions marched in the western camp with drums and flags, and it was not difficult to destroy the ugly ones. ”

"Wen is dead, martial arts is fighting, your idea is good. When I saw him, I also wanted to see his reality before making a decision. Yongzheng said, "You have seen the Di Bao about it, the case of Prince Rui Dolgon has been rehabilitated Zhaoxue, and the descendants of Ao Bai have also been reinstated." I'm not a bad person, but if I can convince people with virtue and win with less killing, I can't ask for it. Telei has come all the way, and he still has to be kind to see and say. Recently, more than a dozen foreign vassal states such as Japan, the Ryukyus, the Netherlands, France, etc., sent tribute, with thoughtful etiquette and modest language. If Galdan Tse Zero really defended himself and surrendered to the Western Frontier, why should I be sure to kill them all? Heaven has the virtue of a good life - high and unmedieffing. ”

"The minions are here!"

"See you here."

"Wow!"

When Gao Wuyong went out, Yongzheng said with a smile: "The French country will pay twenty double-barreled gold-inlaid bird guns, and I will reward you with six." Go back and get it from Prince Bao. Hongli hurriedly got up and agreed, and said with a smile: "General Dongmei, you are so beautiful, I only got two branches, and Li Wei only got one." You alone will get six swords - Erchen sees that the Japanese national sword is also good steel, and asks Ama to reward Yue Zhongqi with a few handfuls. "Okay, twenty rewards." Yongzheng said with a smile, "Does the general have eight mighty faces!" Tomi's pro-guard can shake it. Yue Zhongqi hurriedly bowed down again to thank the reward, and said with a smile: "This is what the Holy Lord inspired my whole army, Zhong Qi didn't dare to take it for personal gain." capture and behead an enemy general, and the minion will give a bird gun; How about capturing and beheading an enemy commander and rewarding a sword? Li Wei smiled: "General Yue's method is good. In this way, I am also cheeky, and ask the master for two more swords, like Wu Blind, who does not receive money, for the court to arrest the mountain thief, reward him, than the official who sealed him! Gao Wuyong came in while speaking, and Yongzheng asked, "Why is it so long?" ”

"Telei came in three steps from the double gate, walked very slowly, and the slave came in first." Gao Wuyong said with a smile, "He said that the Junggar tribe has rebelled often over the years, and he is a guilty person, and he cannot meet the Son of Heaven Bogda Khan with regular courtesy. He also gave the slave this, and asked the slave to speak well for him in front of the master-"He took out a piece of gold cake from his sleeve, which was as big as a baked cake, and more than two hundred taels to say the least, and presented it to Yongzheng. When people saw him act so generously, their hearts moved.

"Since you are rewarded, your master knows, put it away."

Yongzheng heard that Telei was so polite and polite, his face was flushed with joy, and he said: "Telei is so polite, there is a little hope for things." Zhong Qi, you and Li Wei can step down. Now that you have returned to Beijing, you can simply rest assured, and the military recital at the front will be forwarded to you when the military aircraft department receives it, just pay attention to it. This "Mystery of the Great Righteousness" has just been engraved and has been promulgated in the Tianxia Academy. This is a sample book, give you one, take it back and look at it carefully. People like Zeng Jing and Zhang Xi, as long as they are Xianghua, not only will they not kill, but they will also have officials to do for him, and they will travel to the world to show up to say the truth, isn't it much better than dealing with rumors in all directions? He handed a neatly cut book to Yue Zhongqi and glanced at Zhu Shi and Hongli. Zhu Shi and Hongli both wanted to kill Zeng Jing, so they only lowered their heads and did not speak.

Li Wei and Yue Zhongqi went out of the hall, and when they saw Telei holding a tribute slip, they bowed to the cave of the rose wall. The two bypassed, from the flower path to the double gate. Yue Zhongqi was about to go back to Luhe Station, but Li Jian dragged it and said with a smile: "That post is suffocated, there is still fart military affairs at this time, you come with me and talk to you - I want to do a bad job now, I have to borrow you a little prestige!" Li Wei is notoriously naughty, although Yue Zhongqi doesn't smile, he can't help his stubbornness, so he has to smile and say: "People say that you are sick and dead, I think you have an early life!" I can't help you, where can I play, how can I 'borrow' this majesty? ”

"I have to thank our Jia Immortal for this body." Li Wei and Yue Zhongqi recognized the stirrups and got on the horse, and said with a smile, "-I also recited some curses from him after coming to Beijing, and sure enough, it will be fine." ”

The two of them were on the horse, and they were coming to the east of the city, and after walking for about a mile, they saw a small sedan chair of two people coming towards them, and there were four officials of the Shuntian Mansion next to them, and they walked quickly. Yue Zhongqi was wondering how such a vine-wrapped sedan chair could be carried to the Forbidden Garden, Li Wei had already jumped off the horse, stopped with a smile, and said, "Lao Jia come out!" He was surprised, the sedan chair had stopped, Jia Shifang had already bowed out with a smile, Yue Zhongqi knew his identity in front of Yongzheng, and slowly dismounted. Li Wei pulled Yue Zhongqi, pointed at Jia Shifang and said with a smile: "Now he is also a well-known figure in the palace, and he has endless gold and silver, and he is still a monk, and he is still gnawing, sitting in such a small sedan chair!" "General Yue is peaceful!" Jia Shifang was full of energy, bowed to Yue Zhongqi, and said, "-Do you underestimate this sedan chair?" Faster than a horse! I originally loved to ride a donkey, but Prince Zhuang said that no one rode a donkey in and out of Ziyuan, it was too eye-catching, so I changed to this sedan chair. ”

"Isn't your little rattan sedan chair inconspicuous?" Li Wei was still smiling and said, "Don't go into the garden now, the emperor is busy receiving foreign ministers!" He's fine now, and he's idle when he goes in. Come on, follow me to a good place, I'll open your eyes to the two of you, one is a general who kills people without blinking, the other is a bull-nosed Taoist priest who can't cut off his head, plus a hungry and immortal screamer, it's fun! Yue Zhongqi said with a smile: "I have led soldiers for a lifetime, and I don't know how many people I have killed with this knife on my body." I haven't seen anyone who can't cut off his head! Li Wei pointed at Jia Shifang with a smile and said, "This is it!" Last time he blew it out in the Hefeng Pavilion, Fifth Brother Zhang didn't believe it, and even slashed him three times, it was like cutting on a spring, the knife jumped high, and his neck couldn't even afford a red mark! Yue Zhongqi was only a joke, and Jia Shifang only laughed and did not say a word.

So the three of them abandoned their horses and sedan chairs, simply walked into the city, and walked around the Xuanwumen West Corridor Temple for a while. It is very lively here, with two lines of calligraphy and painting, jade, inscriptions, cigarettes, materials, porcelain, flowers and trees, old books, and singing books...... The whole nine yards. There is a dog market and a grasshopper market next to it, and there is a lot of noise and barking. Selling rat pills shouted loudly:

"A guarantee for six months, sit on the ground, the medicine does not die, you look for me!"

The jewelry seller said, "You know what you have bought, you know what you have wore, show me the copper color!" ”

"The plaster of Jin Huihui! Five tuberculosis and seven wounds, broken bones and tendons, only one post can be managed! ”

"Buy the Meng Family's 100 Strength Booster Pills! Don't damage the yin or hurt the yang, sleep a hundred girls overnight! ”

Yue Zhongqi looked at Zhou Zai selling begging, saying that the cross talk played the strings and played the fork to sell eye medicine, coaxing people to come and go, and said to Li Wei with a smile: "You are really a beggar, you love to wander around these places." I've been to Beijing so many times, and I never knew there was such a place! Li Wei looked like a fish in water, bought more than a dozen carved gourds and said that it was "for the little masters (little brothers) to play", and asked for three strings of rock sugar gourds, a string for Jia Shifang and Yue Zhongqi, and what cloud cakes, osmanthus candy, and Aoren'er, each of them was stuffed with a full bosom, and said with a smile: "It's a blessing to be able to go here every day to play around!" When you go to the west to send troops and release horses, you will remember that you will miss me today. Don't underestimate this West Temple Fair, I haven't heard people say, 'The East and West Temples are really complete, they can spend millions of dollars a day, how many nobles are idle here, and the clothes are still fragrant with the smoke of the imperial furnace!'" 'Don't think that you and I are high--look, that's not the fifth master?! The two of them were dazzled, stuffed in their mouths, carried in their arms, and listened in their ears, and they had been fascinated by the "haunting ghost" governor. Following his fingers, he saw that the newly sealed Prince He Hongday was wearing a six-in-one blue satin hat with a red velvet knot, a moon-white poplin robe, a double beam of Ming inspection shoes under his feet, and a bamboo fan of Xiangfei Xiangfei who was holding a Hanyu pendant and paced leisurely from the east step by step. Yue Zhongqi hurriedly pulled Jia Shifang and said, "Let's hide!" Li Wei smiled: "No, the fifth master has already seen us!" ”

"It turned out to be the three of you!" Someone around Hongyang also whispered, his eyes jumped, he quickened his pace and rushed over, and said with a smile: "Li Wei, this dog, do you want to hide from me?" Li Wei said with a hippie smile: "It's Dongmei who wants to hide, I'm afraid it won't be polite." Look at me buying this worm gourd, I have a part of the little prince of Yongbi! Hongyang smiled: "What kind of etiquette is done in this kind of place?" Just now, I saw Uncle Wang bring a few eunuchs to play there, just laugh when they meet. ”

Li Wei saw that Hongtian was about to leave, and said with a smile: "Fifth master, if there is a good place to play, take us with you." It's also our fate to meet today. We all came in the garden, and the poor ones were so hungry that their chests were pressed against their backbones, and they ate all of them to satisfy their hunger! ”

"Don't pretend to be poor!" Hongyang smiled, "It's not that I don't take you, in fact, I went to Qingyun Hall, there was food and fun, but I was afraid that if you didn't keep your mouth tight, I would have to write an apology if I leaked out." Besides, Shi Fang is a monk, and if he goes to that kind of place, if he breaks his vows, he will not be able to sell the dog skin plaster in the future. Jia Shifang knew that the place he went to was evil, because he said: "If the poor Dao does not have great concentration and great divine meeting, how can he cultivate to this point?" I have no desire, how can desire tempt me? There are also men and women in our path who cultivate together and make up for the royal maidens to become enlightened, but I don't go all the way out of that. 'Heaven and earth are presided over by me, and ghosts and gods are supported by me,' the last time I sent qi to my master to heal his illness, but my master was not happy and said, 'You have presided over the envoys, what about me?' I said, 'You are the master of men, and you are in charge of people!' So go play, and I'll go back to reading the Bible." With that, he was leaving. Where is Li Wei willing to let him go, the dead beggar Bai Lai dragged it and said: "Stinky cow nose, chew your rotten scripture book every day!" What does that mean? Go, disturb the fifth master, he always has money, let's help! What ** concentration is really not tempted when you see it, that is the real immortal! Even talking about tearing, Yue Jia and the others couldn't resist him, so they followed Hongyang to the west and then to the north. Walked a section of alleys, out to the entrance of Qipan Street, a piece of pink wall, imitation of the style of Jiangnan Shen Garden, the second floor of the mountain top of the wine shop stands in the north of the street, is the famous "Qingyun Hall".

The four of them walked through the front of the noisy front restaurant, stepped through a small side door in the north of the building, and climbed the stairs from the back staircase, where they were greeted by a glass screen inlaid with gold and jade[1]

, and turned to the north, and went out, but it was a pavilion air verandah, and the windows were pasted with turquoise cicada wing yarn. At the foot is the sea child, the lotus leaves of the pond, the water pavilion in the distance, the pavilion in the pond, the winding stone fence bridge can be seen through the window, the vague shadow is reflected, the corridor is covered with scarlet carpet, the beige wallpaper is paved with soup, and a small and exquisite palace lamp is hung every short distance...... When you get here, you feel like you're in a fairyland, isolated from the dust. Seeing that Hongyang was not guided by others, and walked through the hall and walked into the room familiarly, Li Wei couldn't help but laugh and said: "My master! I never thought that there was such a big view behind Qingyun Hall! This is not on par with the inner garden. "Don't talk nonsense," Hong Tian walked in front of him, and said with a smile, "This is a hall dedicated to receiving the prince!" - Isn't that the bustard? ”

The three of them were stunned, and when they were stunned, they saw a middle-aged woman who was curling and tinging, no more than thirty years old, lightly applied powder and walked out lightly, with a beautiful appearance and elegant manners, which was very different from the vulgar image of the brothel bustard who rushed forward and back, chattering about snakes, snakes, scorpions, and scorpions. When he came to the four of them, he only glanced at Yue Zhongqi, squatted down steadily, and said, "Fifth Master, you are here!" Auspicious gentlemen! ”

"I'm the fifth master, you're the fifth mother, we just happened to be a match." Hongyang smiled, "These are my friends, none of whom have ever opened foreign meats, so I brought them to play." The fifth lady blushed and said with a smile: "Everyone is rehearsing on the water pavilion in the back, and there are only five children and six children here." Go in and sit down, and tell them to sing and listen, and I should call them over—I don't know if you want to open Western meat and Oriental meat? ”

Hongtian saw that several people were dumbfounded, and said with a smile: "Don't ask them, they are all local guys - just come to the Oriental secret show, and see the West next time." So saying, he came in. The three people were fools who generally followed Hongday into the building, only then did they see that it was a ring building, it was originally a four-ring courtyard courtyard, the top was sealed, the courtyard was paved with red felt, and there was a pink glass lamp hanging at the four corners, which shone both upstairs and downstairs, and reflected a soft and crystalline light, which was not dazzling and could be seen clearly. In the middle of the patio along the surrounding railing, a veil of fog is curtain, and the situation downstairs is unobstructed but vague. The small red candles hanging on the four walls of the courtyard are much brighter than those upstairs, so that the people downstairs can't see the people upstairs clearly. The four of them sat down in front of the railing, Hongtian and Jia Shifang leaned against the railing, with a case in the middle, Li Wei and Yue Zhongqi, one next to Hongday, and the other next to Jia Shifang. Just looking at it without thinking, the five niangs took two little girls with clouds, holding plates, pickled watermelons, lychees, grapes, pineapples, bananas, apples one by one, and the most surprising thing was a large plate of fresh peaches, which were by no means seasonal fruits, and they were also offered. Li Weixian smacked his tongue and said, "It's nothing else, this peach is Xihan!" Fifth master, come here to play for a while, I'm afraid of dozens of taels of silver, right? ”

"Dozens of taels!" Hongyang smiled, turned his face to Wu Niang and said, "You hear that he is a dirtyman!" If you want to open Oriental meat, you will get 1,500 taels of silver, and if you want to open Western meat, you will get 2,000 taels! Wu Niang, Xiao Wuzi, and Xiao Liuzi all laughed. Wu Niang said: "What one thousand two thousand taels, people's will is more valuable than money!" Little five sons and little six sons, give you a set of "Spring Festival Tent", and I will offer an ugly reward to the master! Hongtian took out a silver ticket and handed it to Wu Niang, saying, "It's rare for you to stutter." This is a ticket of 2,000 taels, and now you have it, and you can mediate and share the reward yourself! ”

Wu Niang smiled and took it, a little bit, the little five pipa, the little six zither, a little girl next to the flute accompaniment, slightly tuned the strings to try the tune, a light soothing, soft, gentle tune like flowing water and clouds leisurely. Wu Niang lightly soothed her wrists, and sang softly:

Since the willow product is the title person, the smile is more spring. Lose three or four points with begonias, and then steal evenly, half of the rouge and half of the powder......

"It's too soft." Yue Zhongqi listened to Wu Niang's music, like the wind sending spring water, drizzling rain and moistening stones, if there is nothing, if it is intermittent, suddenly remembered the icy Qinghai, and couldn't help but sigh: "People like me should not listen to this song." Li Wei smiled: "How many times can you get joy in life?" Listen up! Don't worry about your soldiers, it sounds like you're listening. ”

At this time, the music started again, and Yue Zhongqi saw that Jia Shifang was listening absent-mindedly, and whispered in his ear: "Daoist Jia, I want to ask for something-"

"Huh?"

"Military on the Western Front, you must have pushed the blame ......"

Jia Shifang's expression seemed to be in a trance, he smiled casually, and said, "Half fierce and half lucky...... There will be news in a few days...... "Yue Zhongqi still asked, Li Wei said: "Lao Jia don't pay attention to him, listen to the tune now." Jia Shifang didn't speak, and when he looked at Hongday, he closed his eyes and clapped his hands as if he was obsessed, and Wu Niang sang:

The begonias are red and moist, and the willow waist dances freely. Smiling and leaning on the jade slave's delicate eyes, in front of the powder, half of the support and half of the soft......

Wu Niang sang tactfully while swinging the pond like a lotus in the wind, and at the same time sent amorous eyes to the table, people are like fairies in smoke, and songs are like soft gold wrapped in jade, except for Jia Shifang, they all listen to it as if they are in a drunken country, and they shake their bodies slightly with the song. Suddenly, Hongtian leaned against the railing, pointed to the patio under the veil and said:

"Look, Toyokai Song and Dance!"

The four of them looked down together, six pairs of male and female singers fluttered out from both sides of the screen downstairs, Wu Niang upstairs was happy, and the sound of bamboo silk in the downstairs sheng pipe rose up, and Wu Niang's singing was connected to the slightest, but the tune brand had been changed:

Open the curtain timidly and see the falling flowers......

Only this sentence is sung by men and women in unison, it is like soft gold nephrite ten zhang red flying, which makes people ecstasy, Rao is Yue Zhongqi iron-hearted general, and also put the half-peeled lychee on the case.

Settle down with spring sorrows...... Pavilion Noon ......

The two teams of dancers continued to sing, Yue Zhongqi looked at it intently, and saw that six were girls with wonderful temples and clouds, small or fourteen or fourteen, big eighteen or nineteen, all wearing one-color jujube flower Biluo tight-sleeved shirts, light red Wu silk pants slightly exposed purple silk shoes, and the waist embroidery belt drooped down to the knees. The prostitutes are all in tight-fitting black clothes and black satin soap boots. Looking down from the top, the female is as graceful as the peach and plum of abundance, and the male is like a jade carving with teeth, dancing with the festival while sending each other flattering eyes, occasionally obliquely glance upstairs, hooking Hongday and others are all lost. And when I listen to the lyrics, it is:

…… Command the two swallows to scold the east wind for others. Sleeping with the embroidery wide, which knows the midnight cold of autumn. The most is the mandarin pillow of the dawn window, and the red cheeks have no plan to avoid the ......

"Look!" Li Wei was murderous in his heart, but his face did not show it, he pointed downstairs and said: "Each is a couple, take off your clothes, ......" As he spoke, he swallowed a mouthful of water himself.

In fact, there was no need for him to point out, several people were looking with their mouths open, first six girls, spinning and singing and undressing, and the men also began to loosen their belts and unbuttons, and they were still singing in their mouths during the worship dance:

For Yulan soup to avoid people, the red liao covers the blue yarn new. Wen Huan transferred the maid last night, and I am afraid that it is true when I smile at the flowers......

Singing and singing, the twelve young men and women were already stripped naked, and they were naked on the red felt ground and walked slowly, staggered and hugged and danced, and after all the men and women hugged and kissed each other, the couple who seemed to be old rolled to the ground. At this point, the song has stopped, and only a wisp of flute sound that seems to be there is still faintly playing, with the following six pairs of men and women seeking pleasure in fish and water, it is really obscene. At this time, looking down from the upper floor, the men and women have been divided into six pairs, all of them are touching each other, just like judo, and there are systems for twisting and rolling. Some of them are tightly wrapped and rolled, and some women sit on men and suck women's **. Some women and men split and copulated, women kissed with another man, and men grabbed and stroked another woman's thighs and. The most surprising thing is that there is a pair of upside-down hugging each other**, the man's tongue rapes the woman's yin, and the woman kisses and sucks wildly with that word...... Upstairs and downstairs there was a sound of obscene chatter. Several visitors upstairs were hot and dizzy, and even Wu Niang and the two girls were panting. Suddenly, the first few women were very happy**, the little kiss, the little obedient, the mother and the good girl were angry, and the first Hongtian couldn't hold it, and dragged the five niangs around him. Li Wei also hugged a girl to make his mouth, he was a person with a heart, and glanced at Yue Zhongqi, who was swollen with red muscles, and he couldn't help but smile when he hung his head sideways.

Jia Shifang boasted of his concentration, and he could still be self-contained at the beginning, eating two grapes indiscriminately, peeling a piece of pineapple, and then leaning on the railing and smiling. The following lewd words spread from time to time:

"Go down, slave's brother......"

"You guide ...... with your hands"

"My little heart liver meat ......"

"The slave's pro-Dadayo...... Save a little energy...... Don't break it! ”

…… Jia Shifang couldn't hold it, closed his eyes with his palms closed, but when Li Wei peeked, his chest rose and fell, his breathing became thicker and thicker, and his hands kept shaking...... Li Wei gently let go of the girl, paced to the side of the railing, and said, "It's so romantic!" Suddenly, he pulled out the hanging sword in Yue Zhongqi's waist, and the arc flashed in the air, and with a "poof" sound, Jia Shifang was already in a different place! The head rolled straight to the middle of the patio mantle, and Wu Zi called out vaguely: "Good Li Wei! ”

This sudden slaughter was as fast as lightning, and it was not until the blood was like a colorful rain that it splashed upstairs and downstairs, and Yue Zhongqi woke up, and all the people were shocked, staring at the Liangjiang Governor with a smirk on his face.

"It has ruined your good deeds and polluted your precious land." Li Wei smiled and wiped the sticky blood off the sword with powder yarn, and returned the sword to Yue Zhongqi. "Please ask the fifth master to reward them with some silver, and the slave will pay the decree to the long-lived master."
