Prince Jia replied: " The things you get from the bandits' lair are not necessarily all gold, silver and silver, there must be some antiques, calligraphy and paintings, jewelry and porcelain, mountain goods and herbs, if you want to turn these things into money, you first have to sell it, although those Eight Banners disciples are not successful, but their grandparents and fathers are the people who have made great achievements in the Qing Dynasty, it can be said that behind them are all connections, and a good relationship with them will be of great benefit to you in the future。 ”

Hearing Prince Jia say this, Fang Xiaoyu's heart was also moved: " Uncle He, Lord Wang, since Brother Yongyan said so, I made an exception and agreed, whether it is the credit of the bandits, or the future income will be counted as their share, but you have to strictly control the number of people, although I don't expect them to help suppress the bandits, but you can't stuff cats and dogs to me, they can come, at least they have to have a little bit of self-defense skills, although Baimei Dao Chang and Aunt Han have outstanding martial arts, but after all, they only have two people, and it is difficult to take care of all the people, so you can only send five people at most, and these five people must be obedient, obey orders, and have a certain ability to protect themselves, if there are too many people, we will definitely not be able to take care of them。 ”

Hearing Fang Xiaoyu's words, He Shen breathed a sigh of relief, his task was finally successfully completed: "Don't worry, their family will definitely not worry about letting them follow to suppress the bandits, and the housekeeper must be following a lot." ”

"That's the second thing I'm talking about," Fang Xiaoyu said: "It's no problem for the people in their family to follow, but the number of people is strictly controlled, and each person can only bring a maximum of two people, not a large number of Yahuan family members, and they must obey orders, do the order and prohibit, if they can't do it, then fight back and forth." ”

After completing Emperor Qianlong's entrustment, He Shen smiled: "That's natural!"

Then he saw Fang Xiaoyu take out a few silver tickets from his pocket and put them in front of him: "Virtuous nephew, what do you mean by this?"

Fang Xiaoyu replied: "Last time I didn't borrow 5,000 taels of silver from my uncle to bet us on winning at the Gaming Bureau, but this luck was not bad, God took care of it, and won a lot of silver, I should have borrowed your silver from Uncle I should have sent it to your house a long time ago, but the problem is that I didn't ask your address last time, I just want to pay back this silver, and I don't know where to send it. ”

He Shen smiled: "You kid is too outside, everyone is their own people, what else are you talking about?"

"Uncle He, you're wrong, it's not ten taels or eight taels that you borrowed from me, but five thousand taels, five thousand taels is nothing in the eyes of your Heshuo prince, but in that kind of place in the countryside, that is all the belongings of the landlord's old rich family, how can you not pay back such a large amount of money?"

He Shen smiled and said: "Then there is no need to rush at this time, this time you go to fight the seventeenth road smoke and dust, there must be a lot of people, as well as porters, mules, horses, chariots and horses, and the expenses must be a lot, or Uncle He will use this money as an investment and make money, you will give Uncle He and me a red meal." ”

Prince Shuo said angrily: "You still want to eat red, I'll give you a fart, you honestly explain to me, in my name, the seller of the Gaming Bureau Xiaoyu is not you, I have lost a full 100,000 taels of silver for this matter." ”

He Shen immediately denied: "Don't talk nonsense about things without evidence, and besides, you are doing business and opening a financial situation, and you are not allowed to bet on others, for fear of people betting, you should hurry up and close the few gaming bureaus under your name, and you can spend the money first." ”

"So you are the one who made the king stumble," Prince Shuo said angrily, "You will win the more money from the king at once, and you will not be afraid to kill you." ”

Fang Xiaoyu was afraid that they would quarrel, so he said: "Isn't it just a hundred thousand taels of silver, can you quarrel, the seventeenth road smoke and dust are bandits among bandits, not only often burning, killing and plundering, kidnapping and ransom, robbing past merchants, even the military salaries of the imperial court have been robbed twice, the cottage must be very rich, as long as they are suppressed, all the losses will not be returned?"

Prince Jia, Prince Shuo, and He Shen were thrilled when they heard this: "How are you going to suppress the bandits, are you directly attacking the bandits' cottage?"

Fang Xiaoyu shook his head: " Directly attack the bandits' cottage, that is the next policy, the seventeenth road smoke and dust can crisscross the two rivers for such a long time, not to be exterminated by the officers and soldiers, naturally the hands and eyes are through the sky, their own mountains are operated like iron buckets, maybe we are out of Beijing, people have already got the news, ready, and hard to meet, even if it is to win, we are also a lot of casualties, so I mean it is better to be quiet, pretend to be an ordinary merchant, lure the snake out of the hole, eat him first, and then disguise himself as a bandit to mix into the cottage, to give it a heart to blossom. ”

Prince Shuo agreed: "It is indeed feasible to lure the snake out of the hole, and it is indeed feasible to eat some bandits, but it is a little taken for granted to pretend to be bandits." ”

Fang Xiaoyu said with a smile: "Knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent, we will not be defeated in a hundred battles, now where is the smoke and dust of the seventeenth road, or how many people are there, the character of the bandit leader, I don't know the habits, I want to work out the perfect battle plan, naturally it is a little taken for granted, so my tactics can only be saved and not used, I suggest that from now on, we will send the middle and high masters of the palace to explore the location of the seventeenth road smoke and dust, three days later, we pretend to be merchants to escort the goods to the location of the seventeenth road smoke and dust, the momentum will be bigger, if the seventeen road smoke and dust can be drawn out, it is naturally the best to annihilate them on the plain, if it really doesn't work, then think of other ways, of course, the snail horse vehicle for travel, the foot force porter will be handed over to the prince and uncle。 ”

"What about you?"

Fang Xiaoyu replied: "I have to take care of my spirits, you have sent those Eight Banner old soldiers, and I have to take a serious assessment." ”

He Shen asked, "Don't embarrass them. ”

Fang Xiaoyu smiled: "I don't embarrass them, they will embarrass me, but don't worry, my subjects are not too difficult, just let them run a few laps around the courtyard of Shuo Wangfu." ”

Prince Jia was stunned when he heard this: "What kind of assessment is running a few laps?"

Fang Xiaoyu explained: "For these masters, I don't have any high hopes, but I don't dare to expect them to really wield knives and fight bandits, they can't beat people, you should always be able to outrun people, if you can't even run a few laps, then obediently hold your wife and children at home, just follow them, that is also a gift to people." ”

Prince Shuo said angrily, "You look down on us Eight Banners disciples like this?"

Fang Xiaoyu asked rhetorically: "Lord Wang, do you think that the children of the Eight Banners are still the children of the Eight Banners when the Qing Dynasty entered the customs?"

"At that time, the children of the Eight Banners were the elite of the elite, and it was precisely because of this that they broke through the good story of 'Manchurian people are not more than 10,000 people, and 10,000 are invincible' on the land of Baishan and Heishui and the Central Plains, but later, I don't need to say that you all know that the destruction of Taiwan and the Pingsan Clan are basically green battalion soldiers and horses, and to this day, those Eight Banners children in the capital are all lustful dogs and horses, cockfighting lackeys, and greedy for enjoyment, tell me how many of them still remember the glory of their fathers, and how many people can use knives?"

Prince Jia, Prince Shuo, and He Shen Gu were speechless, they all knew that Fang Xiaoyu was telling the truth, and the current Eight Banners disciples were really too unspeakable.

Fang Xiaoyu didn't expect to get into trouble just because of this sentence, when he accompanied He Shen out of King Shuo's mansion, he was stopped by the young banner man to challenge, this person was Li Yong, Prince Jia's bodyguard.

In front of Li Yong's challenge, Fang Xiaoyu frowned: "This brother, we don't seem to have a holiday." ”

Li Yong said: "No, I just heard that you look down on us Eight Banners, so you came to earn a breath for our Eight Banners, if you lose, apologize in front of all our Bannermen." ”

Fang Xiaoyu was stunned when he heard this: "When did I look down on the children of the Eight Banners?"

"Don't talk nonsense, watch the boxing!"

Li Yong had already rushed to the middle of speaking, punching Fang Xiaoyu with all his might.

Fang Xiaoyu had no choice but to return the fight.

When they started, He Shen saw Yongqi Gege peeking out of the door of the mansion, and he walked directly over at the moment, and when he saw He Shen found himself, Yongqi Gege turned around and wanted to escape, but she just escaped two steps, and was caught up and stopped by He Shen from behind, and was blocked by He Shen, Yongqi Gege was a little flustered: "He fatty, you get out of the way for me, otherwise I will tell me Ama you bully me." ”

He Shen smiled and said, "Gege, if you don't do anything bad, what are you going to do?"

Yongqi Gege argued strongly: "Don't talk nonsense, what can I do?"

"Trouble Gege, tell me about this, why did Li Yong suddenly find Fang Xiaoyu to compete?"

"How do I know?" Yongqi Gege pouted: "That kid is annoying, annoying, he doesn't know if he offends people outside, and he deserves to be taught a lesson." ”

He Shen smiled: "En will take revenge, this is Gege, you are not, although Xiaoyu has some offends to Gege, but I heard Ah Fu say that when Gege was kidnapped by traffickers in Tianjin, it was thanks to Xiaoyu that he was saved by a man disguised as a woman, otherwise Gege you don't know where the traffickers bought, even if he offends Gege in something, you can't be so yin to him, give him an enemy for no reason." ”

Yongqi Gege was unconvinced: "Why did I make an enemy for him, not because he caused it himself?"

He Shen replied: "Xiaoyu, this child I saw a few times when I was in Hangzhou with the emperor, that is a good boy who is gentle and polite, never causes trouble, and never makes enemies, he has never socialized with Li Yong, how can he offend Li Yong, and Fang Xiaoyu's comments on the children of the Eight Banners just now, only me, your Amma, and Prince Jia are there, and there is no third person, you must have heard our words, and turned around and told Li Yong, Li Yong came to Fang Xiaoyu to compete." ”

Yongqi Gege heard this pretty face: "What if it's me, who made him so stingy and refused to teach me Hexiao for nine days, since he didn't teach me, I have to find a way to steal the school, what can you do?"

"The little girl doesn't know the height of the sky," He Shen snorted coldly: "The little girl doesn't know the height of the sky, if your words get out, Xiaoyu's scientific research will be over." ”

Yongqi Gege muttered, "It's not that serious. ”

He Shen said angrily: "Do you think those full-man examiners will let a full-fledged examiner be promoted?"

Yongqi Gege said very domineeringly: "Which dog slave of my people dares to make things difficult, believe it or not, I will directly slap his big mouth." ”
