On the surface of Taihu Lake, several large war ships were moving rapidly, and snow-white waves several feet high were splashed on both sides of the bow. On both sides are neatly lined up soldiers, with strong spears and bright armor.

Looking into the distance, the sky and water shadows are blue and blue.

Several white-feathered and black-winged waterfowl are flying up and down.

Lin Fanghe changed into a lake-blue kudzu robe, tied a belt, and black hat and soap boots, neatly up and down. Standing on the deck and looking out towards the lake. At noon, the delicate sunlight shines down, the white light flashes, and the water is mighty.

Tang Yu and Xiong Yaohua each wore green robes and stood on the other side.

Lin Fanghe looked at it for a while, turned his head, looked at the two people behind him, smiled slightly, and said, "Why don't you speak, keep your face and hold your breath, as if you are facing a great enemy?"

Tang Yu smiled first: "There's nothing to say." This time on the island, thanks to the timely appearance of the adults and the proper handling, otherwise I don't know what would have become?......"

"It's that Captain Fan, who did something illegal by himself, and covered it up and instigated it in every possible way, almost causing a disaster. Xiong Yaohua was also indignant.

Lin Fanghe shook his head: "I can't get used to many of General Liang's practices. They were persuaded and made each other very unhappy. Alas, in the final analysis, after all, we are only Beijing officials, and we have no right to interfere in the local military administration......"

He paused, looked at the two people beside him, and said in a calm tone: "Fortunately, we took Captain Fan to the house to examine the young woman's body, and there was an old man from the side to testify, the chief soldier had to personally order the detention of a group of criminals?"

"Who knows if he is sincere in punishing or superficial?" Xiong Yaohua had a look of disdain on his face.

"According to Captain Fan, he is related to Liang Dashuai, who led the troops, so he is so arrogant. Tang Yu also interjected and said, "I'm afraid that the general soldier will not act impartially!"

"Don't speculate. Breaking the law, killing people to pay for their lives, since ancient times, are you afraid that he will not be punished as he deserves?" Lin Fanghe looked at the lake from afar and sighed softly.

Xiong Yaohua nodded and said casually: "Yes, when the ship docks, let's leave here." I don't have anything to do with this guy anymore......"

Tang Yu said coldly: "I hope so." ”

Before the three of them could speak, a sergeant came to say goodbye: "How many, is that Lord Lin of the Criminal Department from the capital?"

Lin Fanghe bowed slightly: "It's me." ”

The sergeant intervened and said, "The envoy of the supervising army, Lord Hou and General Liang, will hold a banquet in the cabin, talk about water and wine, and invite your lord to go for a meeting." ”

"This is Lord Xiong, who serves in Jinyiwei and calms the deputy envoy. Lin Fanghe thanked him, waved his hand to introduce Xiong Yaohua, and said, "We will definitely go when we are young-"

The sergeant stepped back.

"Lord Lin, I'm still not going. Lest I can't help but curse when I see that faint official who has no regard for human life!" Xiong Yaohua shouted angrily.

Lin Fanghe comforted: "Don't be rash. Brother Tai has been in Zhangshan for a long time, and he may not know that the founding of the People's Republic of China has only been 30 years old, and the top and bottom have discarded the hard-working style of the first emperor in starting a business! Red tape, beautiful and prosperous, piled up on top of the officialdom. Sometimes you can't deal with it without coping with that......"

"Lord Lin, then I'll go back first. Tang Yu said goodbye.

Lin Fanghe nodded and advised, "Take care of Miss Xiao." In addition, we must protect the safety of Mr. Xiong, and no idle people are allowed to enter. ”

"I understand. ”

Tang Yu turned around and returned to the cabin.

Lin Fanghe and Xiong Yaohua walked to the cockpit of the Chinese army.

Hou Jian and Liang Zongbing were already waiting, and when they saw them coming, they got up to greet them. Liang Zongbing took off his military uniform, wore a square scarf on his head, his body was burly, and his body was sassy, as if he had a bearing of looking at all things. Although Hou Jian, the envoy of the prison army, was from Beijing, he did not have a smug atmosphere, he was dressed in casual clothes, his face was black and red, and his eyes were like distant stars.

Lin Fanghe walked into the hall and thanked him: "It is a great honor to meet with all the virtuous people." ”

Hou Jian returned the salute: "You're welcome." ”

Xiong Yaohua looked up and glanced at him in surprise, but there was no squeak.

Seeing this, Lin Fanghe was not surprised, and asked, "What, are you familiar with each other?"

"No, alas, what do people say. Xiong Yaohua scratched his head and said helplessly, "I just didn't expect that the big man who had been lurking on Jigong Island for a few days, waiting for an opportunity to explore the bandits' lair, was actually the military envoy from Beijing?"

It turned out that this Hou Jiannai was the black man who held a wine gourd and drank bitterly when the two of them landed on Jigong Island a few days ago, and helped them escape!

Hou Jian also laughed: "It's hard for you to recognize this official." If it weren't for my help that day, how could you two have successfully blended into Dongting West Mountain?"

"Did you know who we were in advance?"

"I don't know about this, it's just that I saw two people with extraordinary bearing, brave and aggressive, and they are not ordinary people. I can't imagine that I have done a good thing!"

Liang Zongbing listened to it and joked: "I didn't expect that there was such a reason, which is in response to that sentence, it's not that friends don't get together." I'm going to have a few drinks in a while......"

Seeing that several people gave up their seats, the Xuan Hall sat down, General Liang clapped his hands, and the guards brought the dishes to the table. Although in the boat, there are eight treasures on land and water, and fresh fruits and vegetables are also abundant.

General Liang personally filled the wine glasses in front of everyone, returned to his seat, and raised his glass and said: "On the occasion of this great victory, when the class teacher returns to the court, I will prepare a thin wine under it, and respectfully invite Lord Lang Lin, the left attendant of the Criminal Department, and Lord Xiong, the military envoy of the Hou Prison and the deputy envoy of Jinyi Wei, to come here to talk about the friendship of colleagues." Thank you for your patronage, be sure to drink as much as you want today, and live up to the beautiful scenery of Taihu Lake!"

Lin Fanghe stood up and raised his glass to thank: "Xiaguan is not good at drinking on weekdays, and he is grateful for his hospitality, how can he lose the happiness of a few adults?"

"Lord Lin is really a cheerful person. Hou Jian clapped his hands.

I also had a drink with Xiong Yaohua.

Mr. Liang was calculating in his stomach, picked up the wine glass, made his subordinates fill the wine, and went up to salute the forest and release the crane. He said loudly: "When I was on the island, I had many discords and conflicts with the adults, all for official purposes. I hope you don't care about ......"

Lin Fanghe smiled faintly: "General Liang is open-minded and diligent in royal affairs. Lin is not a narrow-minded person. How can such a trivial matter linger in my heart?"

"Adults have a good stomach, how about another drink?"

General Liang raised his hat and apologized: "My subordinate Captain Fan acted without authorization and did not abide by military discipline, so that he committed heinous crimes. This time, thanks to Lord Lin and Lord Xiong, they were captured in time and tied up under the tent, and once the deeds were ascertained, the charges were confirmed. I won't let go!"

Xiong Yaohua drank two large glasses of wine, and suddenly felt hearty and fragrant. When he heard this, he poked the table with his chopsticks and said, "It's not that I talk too much. Lord Commander-in-Chief, your subordinates are really hurtful and unreasonable, and people and gods are angry. According to me, you must not protect yourself!"

Mr. Liang said: "Don't dare to ......" (to be continued.) )
