"Girl, you're thinking too seriously." Old man Fei was taken aback by Luo Xin's words, the Russians want to fight? He shook his head, banishing the idea that seemed exaggerated at this stage.

"Why, isn't that what they intended?"

"This ...... I really haven't thought about it, but probably not, Russia's center of gravity has always been in the European part, and it has always been ......."

"Really?" Luo Xin seemed a little uneasy, and asked again.

"At least, it should be true for now." Old man Fei affirmed, "What's more, it is impossible to establish such a transportation line in a short period of time." ”

“…… That's the same," Luo Xin came back to his senses, stretched out his hand to pat his heart, and smiled at Old Man Fei embarrassedly, "It's a little too much, and I'm scared of myself......"

"It's nothing, it's just that you can't talk nonsense about it, but the temper of the Russians is really uncertain, maybe they are done fighting in the west, and they want to show off in the east again......"

"Yes, yes, Russia is a country, the roots of which cannot be understood by reason or measured by ordinary standards...... They can launch the October Revolution, they can build a world superpower to dominate the world in just a few decades, and they can automatically disintegrate without regard for anything, they can do anything that ......people can't predict," Luo Xin sighed.

"Yes, but, what you can think of Kangxi and his subordinates must be able to think of, they are more sensitive to the gains and losses of the territory, Kangxi is not the kind of person who suffers losses and does not fight back, he can devote the strength of the whole country to fight Geldan in the far west, and he may not be able to fight another war with Russia in one breath, not to mention, if it really comes to that time, it is not only them Russians who can set up barracks in the north." Old man Fei said.

"Well, Fei Lao, since you think the Russians won't come over, then why do you still say to Yu Heng that they have ulterior motives?"

"If you don't say that, then Yuheng won't leave so easily...... He wanted to wait for the meritorious service. Old man Fei said: "This Russian, to speak a little better, proud, a little ugly, and arrogant, according to that Fei Yao Doro, they have just won a great victory in Europe, and even got the outlet to the sea that they have been thinking about for hundreds of years...... It can be said that they are now in full swing, if they don't give them a basin of cold water on their heads, but still have to entertain them well, they don't lift their butts to the sky? ”

"That's it?"

"It's not all, in fact, what I'm afraid of is that this Russian lion opens his mouth and doesn't treat himself as an outsider, at that time, not to mention that Mo Jing's business can't be done, maybe he will be angry...... So, I'm doing this to send a message to these Russians that we don't really take them to heart...... In this way, they came to open up trade, and they seem to be very anxious, and when they meet people who are higher than me, they will naturally feel a little ......."

"So that's ......" Luo Xin nodded, quite agreeable.

"Okay, girl, you've come all the way back, go and take a break, don't be tired." Old man Fei said to Luo Xin again.

"Hmm!" Luo Xin responded, she was indeed quite tired.

……

In the next few days, it was very lively for Prince Zheng's mansion.

First of all, Luo Xin, under the instructions of Old Man Fei, left Fengtian for Beijing with the excuse of Bang Bao Ri Longmei to deliver her uncle's news. And not two days after Luo Xin left, Mo Jing's 800-mile urgent letter of reporting to the family also arrived in the hands of Old Man Fei, which greatly stabilized Old Man Fei's mood.

Immediately afterwards, the official document of the imperial court arrived in Fengtian, and Yu Heng, who was to be discharged, was responsible for escorting the Russian envoy into Beijing, and went to Beijing to take office by the way, so the old man Fei officially handed over all affairs to Yuheng on the second day of the official document and began to act as the Fengtian Mansion.

On the third day, the Fengtian Admiral Sabusu allocated 1,000 soldiers and horses, which were led by Yuheng, and escorted Fei Duoluo and his party to Beijing. Of course, at this time, Fei Duoluo no longer had the ease of chatting with Mo Jing when he had just arrived, and he no longer thought that the Qing Empire he was facing would easily agree to their request for trade.

Because, during his stay in Mukden, he had already seen the stubbornness and arrogance of the "conservatives" of the Qing Empire, and in his consciousness, these conservatives considered themselves to be the "Heavenly Empire" and the "Central Empire", and looked down on people from surrounding countries, believing that people from other countries came to trade with the Qing Empire with bad intentions and wanted to be detrimental to the Qing Empire...... Moreover, he knew that these conservatives had begun to obstruct him from fulfilling the tasks given to him by Moscow, and even resorted to all kinds of means to keep him in a city thousands of miles away from the Qing Empire's capital for so long in order to have enough time to persuade the more enlightened emperor of the Qing Empire not to accept the trade agreement. From this, he has realized that in order to successfully complete this mission, he must fight well with the conservative forces opposite, and his only hope for success is to gain the favor of Emperor Kangxi, the supreme ruler of the Qing Empire. However, the thought that he was just a foreigner made Fei Doro's heart not easy.

And not long after Fei Yao Duoluo left, Yu Zhong, who was "injured" and asked for transfer, also returned to Mukden.

However, when he learned that Mo Jing's matter was just a false alarm, and now he was fine, Yu Zhong's expression was very complicated, Old Man Fei was in Fengtian Mansion at the time to familiarize himself with various affairs, and at the same time exchanged feelings with some lower-level officials, I didn't know the specific situation, I just heard Agudam, who stayed in the mansion, said that Yu Zhong was "sad" when he touched a broken leg, and seemed to shed tears, but when Old Man Fei asked Yu Zhong again, Yu Zhong resolutely denied it.

……

"How's it going to be in Yaksa?" Yu Zhong only fractured his calf bone, and it is said that it was because he deliberately hit Lang Tan's stick hard, and it was not a big deal, so Old Man Fei did not have much to say.

"So-so! …… I don't understand military affairs, and I don't want to fight, so I'm currently moving towards logistics, hoping to stay away from the battlefield and live a little longer. ”

"That's fine, fighting a war is the most difficult thing to say, if you can't go up, you can't go up, we don't want to ......" Old man Fei thinks deeply of the choice, for people who grew up in peacetime, war can only be used as a condiment after dinner, and everything should be safety first.

"Alas, speaking of which, I'm really at a loss, I've been injured in vain, and I don't have ...... to fart."

"Is it useless? I'm afraid you're waiting to show your respect to Mo Yan in the future, right? Don't come with my old man for this ......," Old Man Fei glanced at Yu Zhong disdainfully and said.

"Hehe......" Although Old Man Fei pierced what he was thinking, Yu Zhong was not embarrassed, and said with a dry laugh: "Old Fei, I rarely come back, and I just want to ask you for an idea." ”

"What's the matter?"

"I want to change positions, to put it bluntly, I want to be a civil official......," Yu Zhong said.

"To be a civil servant?"

"yes...... I'm not like that kid from Mader! Although he is nominally the commander of Ningguta, he now has few soldiers in his hands, and to put it bluntly, he is a big cell boss, and the possibility of going to the battlefield to fight is very small. But what about me? The Yaksa Metropolitan is an official position in charge of the military, although I don't have that authority yet, but this name is here. If I start fighting, I may have to go to the battlefield, at that time, swords and swords, guns and guns have no eyes, if there is a good one, I will not even have a place to cry......"

"That's it...... But that's not easy! Old man Fei stroked the beard that had just grown up for a long time, and said with some difficulty.

"I also know it's not easy to do, but, Fei Lao, aren't you already the Yin of Fengtian Mansion now?" Yu Zhong said with a grin.

"What happened to being Fengtianfu Yin?"

"Three years of Qing Governor's Mansion, 100,000 snowflakes of silver. As long as you stretch out your hand and help me donate an official position when the time comes, won't this be over? Yu Zhong said with a smile.

"You want to buy an official?"

"Hehe, that's what it means, Fei Lao, you are our parent, the big leader, you can't sit idly by and ignore my situation, right?"

“…… Bullshit! Crooked and heretical, are you still reasonable? Old man Fei took a sip at Yu Zhong, "Did this official say that you can donate if you donate?" Don't forget, you are now the commander of the three grades, and then up to the top, it is the second grade, the first grade, this kind of official can be donated? When have you ever heard that someone can donate to an official position above the platform? That's a fourth-grade official...... You don't know how to think about it, it's stupid! ”

“…… Hehe, Fei Lao, I know what you said, the 'donation' I said is not the 'donation' you said......" The reprimand of Old Man Fei was unheard, and Yu Zhong's face remained unchanged.

"And what do you mean?"

"It's not simple, to put it bluntly, one word, 'bribe'!" Yu Zhong said.

"Bribes? …… How can you kid purify these evil ways? …… However, this is not impossible, but ......" Old man Fei scratched his scalp lightly and said with some embarrassment: "Who are we looking for?" You are under the management of the Ministry of War, and even if the Ministry of War transfers you, you will not be able to run out of the officer department! And I can help you transfer a civil official, except for Kangxi, there are only four ministers in the study, but I heard that the old guy Suo Etu is looking at me unpleasantly, and the others who can speak, we can't even go online...... What's more, Kangxi is about to go west, you are all in charge, you are also a member of the party, and you are still a military general, but at this time, if you change jobs and become a civil official, what will he think? A 'don't want to serve the country' can kill you. ”

"Actually, I also know that I can't rush this matter, I have to take it slowly." Yu Zhong also said: "Originally, I wanted to wait in Yaksa for a while to see the situation, but that Pengchun recently started to train soldiers and horses, I knew that he had a battle to fight, and I couldn't run at this time, if I ran, there would definitely be big trouble, this military law doesn't recognize people!" So, if I want to leave, I have to wait until after Kangxi's westward expedition......"

"It's good that you know that...... But this is also a problem, if you go to the battlefield, the consequences are difficult to say......"

"Not bad! So, I want to get hurt as soon as I go to war...... Fei Lao, you think this method should be possible, right? ”

"It's a trick to get hurt...... But I'm afraid that it won't be good, you know, when there is a war, no one can tell who is wrong, if someone sees it, things will not be easy! That's a capital offense. …… And once you go to the battlefield, the situation is complicated, in case you don't have time to ......" Old man Fei shook his head and didn't continue, but his meaning was already obvious.

"That's right, I'm just afraid of that!" Yu Zhong touched his broken leg and said: "I'm afraid that something will happen before I have time to fake, so, just in case, Fei Lao, you have to help me think of a way." ”

"How can there be so many ways? Anything is just in case! Besides, I haven't been on the battlefield. Old man Fei frowned, with a bitter expression.

"What then? I don't dare to look for Na Sabusu, that guy is loyal to Kangxi, and he is still a fierce general, if he knows that I have this idea, he will send me to the front line to die. Yu Zhong said.

"Let's think about this slowly, anyway, it's still early, you better heal your injuries first......" I couldn't think of a way to escape this "military disaster" for a while, and Old Man Fei had no choice but to say so.

"Alas, it really doesn't work, and the only way to do it is to use the trick of 'self-harm'. Oh, by the way, Fei Lao, you have to ask the family to be careful of the three living people I brought back, they are the clothed slaves that Lang Tan gave me as a gift to me, but I can't trust these three people......"

"Oh? Those people are Lang Tan's spies? ”

"It's unlikely that a spy is a spy, after all, this clothed slave is not another kind of person, and life and death are all in my ...... I just think their origins are too weird! ”

"How?"

"They're Japanese!"
