Time goes back a quarter of an hour.

This West Lake is a good place to discuss things.

Ten days ago,

What happened in Yangzhou quickly reached the ears of Lan Gongzi.

At this time, this "Lan Gongzi" was taking a boat on this West Lake.

Confidential deliberations.

When such a thing happened, Lan Gongzi sent a secret letter and invited everyone to discuss.

And the group on the boat are all confidants of "Lan Gongzi".

If you look closely, you will find that the identities of the people who discuss things with "Lan Gongzi" are extraordinary.

Sitting together, there were four marquises!

Jingchuan Hou Cao Zhen, Heqing Hou Zhang Yi, Huining Hou Zhang Wen, Xiliang Hou Puyu, and Dongchuan Hou Hu Hai's second son Hu Yu.

Among them, there are even court officials!

Xu Wenjie, the left servant of the Ministry of Officials, Fu Youwen, the right waiter of the Household Department, Huang Rong, the governor of the left army, and Xie Xiong, the governor of the Chinese army.

As well as the military attache of the guard, Zhang Hanyu of the Yangzhou Jinyi Guard, Yu Zhongchuan, and Xiao Tianlang, the left guard of Yulin

These people gather together, and the power gathered by this ship can be described as monstrous!!

But this character, at this time, is almost always respected by one person.

is the "Lan Gongzi" in front of him.

And the identity of this Lan Gongzi is not big!

It is the eldest son of the Duke of Liangguo, Lan Hao'er.

Now above the court, the most powerful person is this Liangguo Gong Lanyu.

Lan Yu has made great achievements in his life, and he is almost dead among the princes, and the only one who is still in control of the important positions of soldiers and horses in the court is only this one of the princes.

Lan Hao'er is the son of the world, and he will inherit the position of the Duke of Lanyu in the future.

He also inherited his father's character, and he was extremely arrogant and domineering!

All along, Lan Yu has made meritorious contributions on the front line.

And Lan Hao'er used his father's cronies and adopted sons to make crazy money in the rear.

Now, only Lan Yu can still follow the general to fight outside and make war exploits, and he is the only one who is knighted and marquised.

Therefore, these counts are almost all people brought out by Blue Jade.

Let's not talk about the local guards, even the commanders of the guards in the capital division are almost all soldiers under Lan Yu, and they are also Lan Yu's adopted sons.

In the imperial court, Lan Yu installed many cronies and secretly promoted many officials.

With these powers in hand, Lan Hao'er's accumulation of wealth is almost unimpeded.

He was targeted by him for making money in Yangzhou's skinny horse business, and he made the largest skinny horse tooth shop in Yangzhou!

In the past, Yangzhou's thin horse business was not visible.

The businessmen did it in private, making small fights.

Since Lan Hao'er found out that this business was profitable, he used the power in his hands to meddle in this business.

Forbidden by the imperial court?

It doesn't matter, as long as the news doesn't reach the ears of the emperor, who knows?

Lan Hao'er has this ability to do this!

The high-ranking officials of Yangzhou's military preparation road, the inspection and envoy division, the command of the envoy department, the various guards, and even the local Jinyi guard are their own people.

A few years ago, there was a new prefect in Yangzhou named Liangji.

On the first day of his appointment in Yangzhou, he received an invitation to a banquet from Lan Haoer.

The son of the prince of the country personally posted and had to go.

After the prefect went to the banquet, he found that the local high-ranking officials, and even the inspectors, were actually at the banquet.

This surprise is not trivial!!

Administrative officials and inspection and inspection officials should not have too close personal relations together, they are very taboo, and they are easy to be impeached.

But in Hangzhou, such a phenomenon does not exist at all!

At the banquet, large and small, were all important officials of various yamen.

What was even more surprising was that at this banquet, Lan Hao'er did not shy away from suspicion, and presented him with a big gift in front of everyone, while everyone else took it for granted.

After receiving the gift, it means that he has worshiped the dock and become a person on the side of Lanyu.

But this phenomenon is too exaggerated.

Yangzhou seems to have become a one-man world

The officialdom of Yangzhou is so muddy!!

Although he was surprised, the prefect understood that if he didn't accept this big gift and dismissed Lan Hao'er's face in public, his future career might not be easy.

can climb to the position of the prefect, how can it be that he is not familiar with the world.

Lan Yu belongs to the prince's side, and is a fierce general left by the saint Zhu Yuanzhang to the crown prince Zhu Biao.

In the future, the next monarch must be the crown prince Zhu Biao.

is reasonable, and there is no reason for me to refuse.

After weighing the pros and cons, the prefect accepted the gift.

But soon, the prefect realized that something was wrong.

On the evening of the second day of taking office, someone sent three fourteen or fifteen-year-old girls to the house to enjoy them.

The prefect was curious.

These girls are extremely beautiful in appearance, proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting.

Such a woman who is as beautiful as everyone can be a slave and bully and enjoy it at will.

After the investigation, it was originally called Yangzhou Skinny Horse.

The prefect finally discovered the problem in Yangzhou.

In this Yangzhou, there is such a business as Yangzhou Thin Horse.

And "Lan Gongzi" covered the sky with one hand, and he insisted on letting this matter not reveal a trace of rumors!

Not only that, the business of Yangzhou Thin Horse can't be swallowed by one person.

Under Lan Haoer's authorization, other wealthy businessmen also participated, but they all had to hand over forty percent of the proceeds to Lan Hao'er's hands

After much consideration, the prefect decided to report the matter to the Holy Lord.

He secretly sent a letter to his former classmate, and the inspector of the Inspectorate reported the matter.

It's a pity that after the letter arrived at the Inspector Yushi, it sank into the sea.

Soon, the prefect also unfortunately fell into the water and died in the line of duty!

Over the years, the business of this thin horse in Yangzhou has been going on, and no one dares to offend "Lan Gongzi" in Yangzhou.

can make Lan Hao'er count thousands of calculations, but he can't count them.

Someone actually beat his idea, and even overnight, six hundred thin horses that had been raised for several years disappeared without a trace, as if the world had evaporated!

After checking for a few days, I didn't find any eyebrows.

Until the people under him found out a trace of clues!

On that day, there was a Qinglou named Jin Meilou, and there was a person who claimed to be Li Gongzi who ransomed a prostitute named Ruyu.

And this prostitute has a concubine, who is the guard of the small east gate.

After touching the melons in the sky, he found Lin Ren, arrested all these people, and tortured them for questioning.

Poor Lin Ren is still dreaming of making peace with Ruyu, and no matter how he tortures, he doesn't reveal a trace of news.

It's a pity that the other colleagues were immediately recruited under the punishment service.

Sure enough, someone went out of the city gate with a carriage in the night.

"This is the portrait of those two people, if you find this person, you must find a way to arrest them."

Yangzhou Jinyi Wei Qianhu put the portrait on the table.

On the portrait, it is the appearance of Li Xiao and Li Xiongzhi that is depicted.

Although everyone was masked, Li Xiao and Li Xiongzhi did not cover their faces when they went to the Qinglou.

However, when Li Xiao and Li Xiongzhi went out to run errands, they were both dressed in disguise, and the people in the portraits had beards, unlike the photos, which were difficult to find

On the boat, the prefect of Yangzhou whispered: "Young Master Lan, this matter is not trivial, I am afraid that it was investigated by Fusi from the north town of the capital."

For this matter, Lan Hao'er was also quite distressed, and scolded the Yangzhou prefect angrily: "You are a dignified prefect, there is such a big problem, and I still need to send someone to investigate"

Half the story.

From outside the ship, "Ahh!!!h Voice.

It was Li Xiao from another ship.

Lan Hao'er frowned, and Hu Yu, the second son of Dongchuan Hou Hu Hai, immediately got out of the boat and scolded loudly, and then turned back to the cabin.

At this time, the prefect of Yangzhou said humbly: "Son, this matter is my negligence."

Heqinghou Zhang Yi whispered: "Shizi, if it is really the case of Beizhen Fu Si Cha, the matter will be a little tricky, in case the saint knows"

Lan Hao'er looked at Zhang Hanyu of the thousands of households in Yangzhou Jinyi Guard with displeasure, and scolded: "Zhang Hanyu, what the hell are you doing, don't you know anything about this matter?" Yangzhou has spent so much money and fed so many people for so many years, this little thing is unreliable? ”

Zhang Hanyu was pointed at his nose and scolded, he didn't dare to put a fart, he could only lower his eyebrows and pleasing his eyes, and kept saying that it was his own mistake, and he must catch those two people

"Humph!"

Lan Hao'er snorted coldly, and said with a soothing expression: "It's hard to say about this matter for the time being, it may not be that Beizhen Fusi did it, I have news from the secret agent, Ji Gang led a few people from Qinglong to investigate the people who I must keep an eye on Beizhen Fusi." I've sent someone to search for the traces of a few people, and when I find them, I will dispose of them. In fact, the names of the account books they took have long been replaced by me with the names of a group of other officials."

Lan Hao'er has no fear, because he has already let the people who record the account books replace them with the names of some officials who have not cleared the customs.

The account books do not convict him, and his name, from the perspective of outsiders, is only known as "Lan Gongzi".

The voice fell.

A group of people clapped their hands like sycophants, "The son of the world is wise and close to the demon!" ”

Lan Hao'er enjoyed it very much, the corners of her mouth twitched slightly, she picked up the teacup and drank tea, and said:

"Take 10,000 steps back and say, even if you really find me? My father went to Sichuan to quell the rebellion, and there is good news that he will be able to return to Beijing in a short time! Will the Holy One move me? ”

Lan Hao'er looked calm and did not panic at all.

With his father's military exploits, who can move him?

When my father returned from the great victory of the Northern Expedition, he passed by the Xifeng Pass of Yandi Chengchi Pass, and the guard opened the door too slowly, so my father sent people to attack, broke the door and entered, and still came in!

Yan Wang Zhu Di?

Hum!

Didn't you pinch your nose and say nothing?

The saint turned a blind eye and didn't say much, just a small punishment for turning "Liang Guogong" into "Liang Guogong".

Thinking of this, Lan Hao'er was extremely inflated.

It seems that no one in the Ming Dynasty can move him.

Even his own sister was given a marriage and is the son-in-law of the Holy One!

The emperor's relatives and relatives are unparalleled, so what else is there to be afraid of?

As the voice fell.

All the officials and marquis gave their hands and sighed.

"When my father-in-law returns from this trip, he will definitely return victorious!"

"My father-in-law is now at the top of the country, and with this merit, one person is above ten thousand!"

"When my father-in-law returns, I will have to celebrate and wash the dust for my father-in-law."

"The tiger father has a dog, and the son of the world will get a few more credits, maybe he can be a two-country prince!"

This time Lan Yu was ordered to go to Sichuan, and when he set out on the expedition, the saint patted Lan Yu's shoulder affectionately in public, and everyone saw it in their eyes, who could get such glory?

When you return, the power will be even greater!

"One Door, Two Princesses"

Lan Hao'er laughed, stood up and said, "You are all my father's good sons, and you also know the relationship between my father and the crown prince!" To put it mildly, when the crown prince ascends to the throne of the great treasure, it is really possible for my Lan family to be a two-country prince! ”

Jingchuan Hou Cao Zhen picked up his wine glass and toasted: "Yes, one family and two princes!" The prince is so brave and intelligent, he should be the prince of the town! ”

Hearing this, Lan Hao'er was extremely happy in her heart, but she was very calm on the surface.

He waved his hand, "Drinking hurts my body, I don't drink, I only drink tea, and the new little green mandarin in Yangzhou City tastes very good." ”

As he spoke, he picked up the teacup and played with it in his hand.

"The son of the world is free, I'll do it."

The other marquis and officials raised their wine glasses and drank them all.

Others toast, the host drinks tea, this is the face of the blue jade!

After all, everyone knows it in their hearts.

When His Majesty returns to the west, the crown prince ascends the throne.

Lan Yu is the only prince who is fighting abroad, and his sister is the crown princess of the crown prince Zhu Biao, with this relationship, they follow their father-in-law, eat and drink spicy!

Although the crown princess has passed away, isn't there still Zhu Yunxi, her own nephew?

When the time comes, everyone will support Zhu Yunxi for decades.

In this world, except for the emperor, it is the Lan family!

"I'm going to congratulate the prince in advance as the prince of Zhenguo."

Everyone patted their ass, and the atmosphere was very beautiful.

However, at this time, there was another "ahhhh

disturbed the quiet, Lan Hao'er was very unhappy.

He sat down directly, his face turned cold, and pressed the teacup on the table.

Seeing this, everyone knew what it meant.

These marquis, and even the thousands of households in the guard, are all from the battlefield, and they have been appreciated by Lan Yu to get to where they are today, and they are not idle.

One by one, they rushed straight overboard.

"Holy shit, sink your ship!"

For these people, what is it to kill a few people?

The words are divided into two ends.

Li Xiao has already taken out his weapon here.

Li Xiao took the sword, Zhu Gaoxu was bare-handed, after all, no one went out to take a halberd, but Li Xiao, Zhu Ningyun, and Zhu Gaosui had weapons on their swords.

Zhu Gaoxu snatched the oars for rowing from the boatman and used them as a halberd as a weapon.

"Yo, is there anyone who is really not afraid of death?"

A group of people on the Blue Troubler boat couldn't help but laugh when they saw the four of them take up arms and prepare to resist.

Immediately, everyone on the boat burst into laughter.

didn't take Li Xiao and others in his eyes at all.

Who are they?

Those who have fought on the battlefield, have been on the battlefield, and have seen blood, their martial arts are naturally not idle, otherwise they will not be able to gain Lan Yu's appreciation.

You can't be knighted if you don't have military merits, and if you can get a knighthood, you are all people with military merits.

There is evil spirit in those who have killed people!

On weekdays, anyone who sees them will be terrified.

And these people are actually planning to resist?

The two ships are getting closer.

Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Gaosui heard their laughter like a joke, and their anger filled their heads like fire!

"Arrogance! Arrogance! Grandpa will make you regret coming to this world today. ”

Zhu Gaosui scolded angrily, his eyes were as wide as copper bells, and he held his sword in both hands, just waiting for the ship to get close, he would go up and kill them without leaving a piece of armor.

How can the mouth cannon be without Zhu Gaoxu?

He pointed to the people on the opposite boat and shouted angrily: "A group of cats and dogs, dare to laugh at us, Lao Tzu will chop you up later, pee in your mouth, and then throw it in the lake to feed the fish!" ”

Peeing in the mouth, which is an insulting language of jealousy.

It is also the secret of Zhu Gaoxu's use of the method of agitation, the last time to get rid of the bandits, that is, this sentence made the bandits break the defense and come up to die.

And these marquis were originally vulgar martial artists.

But after being an official all these years, I have heard too much flattery, and my ears have long been soft.

When you hear such words, you will fry your hair directly.

"Damn, I'll kill you when I'm the first one!"

Huining Hou's eyes were red, and his cheeks were bulging.

I have to say that it worked very well, and the gang stared at Zhu Gaoxu angrily, eager to break his body into pieces.

And Li Xiao suddenly found that these people were scolding, full of temperament, and extremely penetrating.

The water on the surface of the lake was rippled by sound waves.

The surrounding cruise ship passengers have long been frightened and fled, and there are these two boats on the lake.

They are definitely not the kind of ordinary people, they all have some ability.

And each one is not bad.

Although Li Xiao is now a template for a first-class general, he has never fought with anyone, and he is not very sure in his heart, after all, there are more than a dozen people on the other side.

Of course, he wasn't very worried.

If you really can't do it.

I could only take out my own small pistol, one at a time, and the gun shot in the head.

"Gao Xu, be careful, these people don't seem to be simple."

Li Xiao whispered to Zhu Gaoxu, who was scolding, and tightened the Xiaoyao Sword in his hand.

"Brother-in-law, I have long found out that I am agitating the generals, making them lose their minds, and they will show flaws when they fight."

Zhu Gaoxu took the oars and replied in a low voice.

"Okay."

Li Xiao felt that there was some truth.

If it is an ordinary person, it can still let Zhu Ningyun play.

But since these people are very powerful, they can't let Ning Yun go up.

"Ning Yun, you go back to the cabin first and leave it to the three of us."

Li Xiao said as he protected Ning Yun behind him and asked her to retreat first.

"But."

Although Zhu Ningyun was worried, he thought that the other party had some martial arts, and he might have dragged everyone back, so he retreated into the cabin rationally.

Li Xiao's heart is more down-to-earth, and his daughter-in-law is really rational and does not mess around.

After all, I used to watch TV series a lot, and I had that kind of bloody plot.

The kind of heroine who is obviously weak, in order to save the male protagonist, has to go up to die, send him as a hostage, or block an arrow or other brain damage.

"Here, knock them out!"

At this time, the two boats approached and came together.

These people took the lead in running, and the target was Zhu Gaoxu.

There's no way, Zhu Gaoxu's ridicule just now is so annoying that he wants to pee on them at every turn.

Although these people are marquises, good hands on the battlefield.

But in the face of them, Zhu Gaoxu was not afraid at all, and took the lead and swept away thousands of troops.

How can Zhu Gaoxu be an ordinary person, he is the future King of Han.

If he doesn't rebel, he will also be a strong general who can leave a good reputation in history.

I saw the oars in his hand swing out like a half-moon scimitar, whirring.

There was a loud bang, and the oar hit the first person directly.

If Zhu Gaoxu had a real halberd in his hand, it was not a joke, and he might have to die several times in one sweep.

It's a pity that he was holding an oar in his hand and hit the first person, because the force was too great, the oar was directly broken.

And the poor bastard who was beaten directly broke his arm with a crushed fracture, and was also hit by a blow and flew out and fell into the lake.

"It's not good, these people have some ability, be careful!"

A marquis shouted loudly.

Originally, these people didn't take it seriously, and they thought they could easily clean it up.

As a result, it suffered a big loss at the beginning.

The remaining dozen or so people have to deal with it carefully.

However, they went out without weapons, so they had to go out with their bare hands.

Seeing this, someone wanted to use the oars as weapons.

"You want to get a weapon, did you ask me?"

How could Zhu Gaosui let them get their wish?

Although he was young, his strength was not as strong as these people.

But with a weapon in his hand, he rushed over and stabbed a few swords, and immediately retreated to keep his distance when he succeeded, and those people were forced to not run around.

", this thing"

Several people who were stabbed covered their arms, blood kept flowing, and their hearts were extremely angry.

Their dignified marquis was so embarrassed by three young men.

It's a shame!

"Fight with them!"

At this time, these people didn't care about being injured, and they all rushed towards Li Xiao and the others frantically.

If you take Zhu Gaosui's weapon, you can instantly suppress him, so as to continue to subdue the other two.

"Brother-in-law, save me."

Zhu Gaosui didn't dare to fight hard, so he immediately retreated and hid behind Li Xiao.

At this time, on the other side, Zhu Gaosui had no weapons and was fighting with six people with fists and feet, fighting with one against six, and the fight was evenly matched, but it was obviously suppressed.

After all, Zhu Gaoxu is only seventeen years old now, and he is not a complete body.

And the other party is also a ruthless person who has been on the battlefield, not an ordinary person.

Zhu Gaoxu can defeat six with one, which is already very powerful.

"Dick, go on!"

Li Xiao threw his sword over and gave him a weapon.

Zhu Gaoxu took it and asked, "Then what should you do?" ”

Li Xiao said: "The third child has two swords, it's okay." ”

Because Zhu Gaosui and Li Xiao are together, this guy makes two swords, and one can be separated.

It just so happened that each of the three had a weapon in his hand.

On such occasions, there are weapons and there are no weapons, and those are two completely different concepts.

No matter how high your martial arts are, you are afraid of kitchen knives!

In the future media, there are often news reports of professional boxers being stabbed to death with daggers by street thugs.

Not to mention the sword, which is much longer than a dagger.

Li Xiao threw the weapon to Gao Xue and prepared to take the sword from Gao Sui's hand.

But how could the people here watch him get his wish?

"Boy? You still have time to take care of others, so take care of yourself first! ”

The three people who originally rushed towards Zhu Gaosui, because Zhu Gaosui was hiding behind Li Xiao, rushed towards Li Xiao.

Three fists hit Li Xiao's head.

If this hits, the head is likely to burst like a watermelon.

Li Xiao didn't have time to take the sword, so he had to use his intention to resist with his fists first.

As danger approached, the genes in Li Xiao's body were also activated.

Changing the palm into a fist, at the same time, the martial arts skills in my mind, as if I had practiced tens of millions of times, naturally appeared in my mind.

Prompted by muscle memory, his body shape has changed.

The dantian sinks, the steps are difficult, and the momentum rises.

"Xingyi Fist Collapse Fist!"

The fist roared towards the three of them like cannonballs!

Rumble!

With a loud bang, Li Xiao felt as if he had broken something.

It should have broken all the ribs of the person who bore the brunt of it, and the powerful impact force knocked the person backwards, and the two people next to him also flew out.

Click!

The trio flew several meters away, smashing the planks of the cabin before stopping.

With such a big movement, everyone stopped the fight in their hands and looked over.

Then he froze

Li Xiao looked at the incredible scene in front of him and was also stunned.

I'll it,

Am I already so awesome?

The scene suddenly became quiet, and the fight stopped instantly.

Because they were all shocked by Li Xiao's song, they were overwhelmed.

Is this a punch that a man can throw?

Even if Xiang Yu is reincarnated, that's it!

At this time, the powerful attribute points, coupled with the blessing of martial arts, came out with an effect similar to Xiang Yu.

And Li Xiao kept his composure and tried his best to make himself look like he was matching this strength.

Nonsense, even you don't know your own strength, isn't this nonsense?

Li Xiao slowly withdrew his fist and said lightly:

"This punch, thirty years of hard work, can you stop it!"
