The school officer wiped off the drink from his face, and looked at the general stupidly. He didn't know why the general was angry. Could it be because he had lost the face of the general's mansion on the street before, so the general used this strong The gesture of spraying wine on the face expresses a strong contempt for oneself
General Li Hongcheng didn't even look at this confidant, he looked stupidly at Fan Xian's disguised businessman, opened his mouth, pointed down with his index finger, moved quickly, but didn't say a word .
Fan Xian glanced at him, narrowed his eyes, and shook his head imperceptibly.
Li Hongcheng quickly suppressed the shock in his heart, coughed twice, cleared his throat, glanced at the subordinates around him, and said, "Get down here, sort out the files, and the Governor's Mansion will come to rob people later. You stop me to your death."
"Here." The sergeants who escorted the spies into the mansion led out, but the school officer and several cronies and clerks in the general's mansion did not leave.
"General, the interrogation is over?" The school officer wiped off the drink from his face, and looked at his boss with some confusion.
Li Hongcheng was furious, and said, "What a trial! You can't beat me, how can I go to trial?"
can not fight? Could it be that what the spy said earlier really convinced the general? The school official looked at Li Hongcheng like an idiot, and couldn't react for a while, feeling that life seemed a little too absurd.
When the main residence was much quieter, Fan Xian asked with a smile in the hall: "These four people haven't left, it seems that they are your cronies?"
Li Hongcheng had already jumped up from the hall at this time, and muttered as he walked down: "Nonsense, you are not a trustworthy person, how dare you stay here."
"That's good." I didn't see how Fan Xian exerted his strength, but the tendon ropes tied around his arms were broken and fell to the ground.
The four cronies of the General's Mansion stared round their eyes, they couldn't believe their eyes, and thought to themselves who is this master? I have a deeper understanding of the absurdity of life - this is a special tendon rope made by the military, which is enough to bind a ninth-rank expert, but how could this person break free so easily! How did they know that the domineering true energy in Fan Xian's body had reached its peak, coupled with the special attributes of this true energy, once fully exerted, it could be said to be invincible.
Seeing Fan Xian get out of trouble, the four of them subconsciously wanted to draw out their weapons and strike at him, but fortunately they were not really fools, and they had already seen that the situation on the field was a bit weird, so they looked at each other nonchalantly, and their feet felt a little weak.
Fan Xian touched the red wrists that were bound, looked at Li Hongcheng in front of him and said, "These people under your command are really ruthless."
"Nonsense! How can you catch you uncles in the courtyard if you are not ruthless?" Li Hongcheng hit him on the shoulder with a fist, and said, "Why did you come here? You seem to have caused a big mess."
Fan Xian felt the pain and said, "If you were beaten by your men, don't hit him."
Li Hongcheng heard clearly that this guy was taking the opportunity to sue, but as a general, he knew the style of the people under his command very well, and he also knew that a person with Fan Xian's status would definitely not Retaliation for such a trivial matter, hehe laughed twice, but just didn't answer, and wanted to mess around.
"My lord?" The school official finally couldn't bear the unbearable absurdity of life, and couldn't help asking.
…
…
Fan Xian turned around and pointed to the Yi Cheng who was still sleeping on the chair, and said, "This man knows my identity, don't let him out for now, wait until the matter is over."
Li Hongcheng nodded, hugged his shoulders, said with a smile on his face: "The news from Beijing, you still have at least ten days to arrive. Is there something good to come so early? I am now the tyrant of Dingzhou. If there is something good, you can give me a cup."
Fan Xian frowned, glanced at him, and felt more and more strange in his heart, why does this dignified son really look like a soldier now, especially the sour smell on his body... He shuddered, Breaking away from the warm embrace of the other party, he said: "There are no good things, but there are a lot of bad things. Anyway, I can't tell you, but there are some things that need your help to deal with."
When the two bosses talked about business, they forgot about these subordinates. The four cronies of the General's Mansion had already faintly heard the origins of these so-called spies, and couldn't help but look at each other, and then looked at those people who were tied into rice dumplings with blue and red faces, and they couldn't help but beat up in their hearts, secretly He wondered what would he do if he really beat up the secret agents of the imperial court, with the legendary vicious temper of the old ancestor and the younger ancestor of the Overwatch Council
"Do you want to untie these... brothers?" The school officer couldn't help asking Li Hongcheng for instructions.
Li Hongcheng scolded: "You little bastard, don't worry about it, hurry up and untie it."
Hurry up, these four people hastily let go of Fan Xian's Overwatch Council subordinates, and then stood at the side a little helplessly, smiling and saying apologetic words. The subordinates of the Overwatch Council didn't show any anger. People who were used to being spies certainly wouldn't care about these small problems.
"Seal the news, and not let out any rumors. As for if someone asks the spies who came into the mansion today, they will say that the general's mansion is under secret interrogation."
I don't know what Fan Xian and Li Hongcheng said. Li Hongcheng turned around, said a few words in a cold voice, and then explained some things to ensure that the whereabouts of Fan Xian and his party would not be revealed.
"In three days' time, you will select some death row inmates..." Fan Xian lowered his head and said, "What should I do next? These people under my command will clean up the people in your house."
"Of course they will do these things. Let's talk about it first." Li Hongcheng still held Fan Xian's arm, as if he was afraid that he would run away, and dragged him to the back garden.
The remaining officials from the General’s Mansion and the Overwatch Council looked at their immediate superiors and walked shoulder to shoulder. They couldn’t help staring and falling into silence. They didn’t know how to address each other, how Handle related matters. After a long time, the school official who caught them into the mansion coughed twice, looked at Mu Feng'er and said softly, "Your Excellency is from the courtyard?"
Mu Feng'er nodded, not giving this man a good look.
"Then that lord from before was... lord Xiao Fan?" the school officer lowered his voice and said with a little fear.
Mu Feng'er knew the close relationship between Lord Tisi and Prince Jing's son, so she nodded seriously. The school official swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and only now did he realize what kind of person he had caught today. When he thought that the other person was the little ancestor of the Overwatch Council that he was afraid of earlier, his face began to turn pale, whiter than the flowers on the grassland .
…
…
The Grand General's Mansion was originally the mansion of the Ye family. Later, Shi Zi Hongcheng joined the Zhengxi Army, and in his capacity, he has been living here. Two years ago, there was a rebellion in Kyoto, and half of the Dingzhou Army entered Beijing to quell the rebellion. Ye Zhong and Gong Dian stayed in Kyoto and never came back. Therefore, this General's Mansion became Li Hongcheng's private residence and office. Where the Yamen is located.
There were no idlers in the mansion, and when I walked all the way to the back garden, I didn't even see a servant. Fan Xian secretly marveled at himself, but there was no expression on his face. He sat on a cold stone bench in the garden, got used to the cold and cold atmosphere that was completely different from the Central Plains Garden, and then said carefully, "You must explain to the people below. Clearly, people must not think that I entered Dingzhou City today."
"Whispering! You came ten days in advance to do business. The problem is your current status. What are you afraid of?" Li Hongcheng carried a large jug of wine, poured two bowls, and placed them in front of each other.
"I don't want some caring people to guess that I... came to see people because of my early arrival."
Li Hongcheng paused for a moment on the wrist holding the flagon.
Fan Xian looked at him and said, "I'm not going to hide this from you. I buried a nail in the grassland, and I'm here to see this nail today, but..." He emphasized, "I don't want to Anyone who knows this, because the life and death of that nail will affect the life and death of many soldiers and civilians in our country of Qing."
After thinking for a while, Li Hongcheng nodded, and then said: "As you said before, I will handle it well and pick some death row prisoners to pretend to be your identities, so that people outside will not be suspicious."
"There is one more important thing." Fan Xian said: "The courtyard needs a passage to the Xihu tribe, and I don't want to be copied by your army, so I need your cooperation."
At this time, Li Hongcheng got rid of the previous surprise, returned to calmness, and said, "What exactly do you want to do? I just want to remind you that any grain of grain you send to the grassland may kill me, Daqing." A soldier."
Without waiting for Fan Xian to explain, Li Hongcheng stared into his eyes and continued: "I don't care what the court thinks, I don't care what schemes President Chen has, and I don't care if you are going to plant a nail, okay? Let the Hu people be in chaos, but I must remind you that the Hu people... are a completely different kind of existence, you are not at the border, you don't know their cruelty and fickleness, and you have to be careful about things like raising tigers."
Fan Xian could feel the friendship contained in the other party's reminder, nodded, and said comfortingly, "Don't worry, I have my sense of proportion."
He raised the wine bowl, drank a bowl with Hongcheng, then let out a long breath, looking at the other party's bearded face and the inexplicable wrinkles in the corners of the eyes, he didn't know what to say for a while, and the two were at the same time. Falling into silence, the back garden was quiet.
Prince Jing's son Li Hongcheng joined the army three years ago, he has fought bravely against the enemy in the past three years, took the lead in fighting the enemy, and has achieved success in marching and fighting, his reputation has already spread back to the capital and the Central Plains. Everyone praises that after the first prince's western expedition, the royal family finally produced another powerful figure who can lead the army to fight. It is precisely because of his military merits that this son of the royal family, who had an unclear relationship with the second prince, gained His Majesty's trust, took over Ye Zhong's position, and began to take charge of the military affairs of the entire Dingzhou West Camp matters.
However, it has been three years. The suave, handsome and handsome son of the world has been blown and polished by the wind and sand in the frontier fortress, and he has not been back to the capital for three years.
"Three years, although the border is tight, but judging by your appearance in the General's Mansion, it's not that you don't have time to return to Beijing." Fan Xian filled two bowls with spirits and said softly, "Why don't you go back?"
Li Hongcheng held the edge of the wine bowl with his hand, his face was heavy, and after a long time he said slowly, "What are you going back for?"
Fan Xian knew what he was jealous of. He glanced at him disapprovingly, and said, "It's all in the past. If His Majesty suspects you, why would you be in charge of Dingzhou affairs?"
"It's called a great general, but my control over the army is far worse than that of the Ye family." Li Hongcheng lowered his head and said, "Of course, I don't want to turn Xidaying into my own soldiers. , as you have seen, I only have four cronies I can trust in the mansion, the school official who arrested you is from the Ye family, I can trust him... but I can't trust those ministers in the capital."
"In the past two years, Your Majesty has carried out a total of four rotations. One belongs to Yanjing, the other belongs to Nanzhao, and the other four frontier soldiers all came to Dingzhou City to play..." Li Hongcheng raised his head , staring into Fan Xian's eyes, "Although you have never commanded a soldier, you should also know that famous generals use experienced soldiers, and this iron barracks are really flowing soldiers. Generals don't know how to fight soldiers, so how easy is it to fight?"
"This time you go back to the capital, you must do me a favor and advise His Majesty... there can be no rotation anymore." Li Hongcheng said in a heavy tone: "It is true that the replenishment of troops has become more than enough due to the rotation, but it is not at all when it comes to fighting. So what's going on... and the 14th Huren's offensive is getting more and more fierce and cunning... "
Fan Xian cut off his words and said, "I know you have sent a message to the Privy Council, and I have read your secret report to His Majesty, but you should know why your Majesty's rotation in the past two years is for... Yanjing and Cangzhou area In a stalemate, His Majesty is using barbarians to sharpen his sword and train troops for the future, it is basically very difficult for you to stop His Majesty from playing this move."
"I don't care about the great cause of unifying the world." Li Hongcheng said angrily: "Yes, if it comes to the opening day of the great war, I would also be willing to serve as a pawn for His Majesty and fight to the death on the battlefield. Lu was really beaten into a cripple by the barbarians, and he still dominates the world!"
At this time, there were only Fan Xian and him in the garden, so his words were also very direct. He actually criticized His Majesty's national policy as bullshit. Anyway, he knew Fan Xian's temperament, and he didn't care if the other party listened to it. .
Fan Xian smiled wryly and said, "What can I do? Your Majesty never allows me to intervene in military affairs. It's not like you don't know that."
Li Hongcheng sighed, raised his wine bowl and drank it down, cursed a curse word, and said in a low voice: "Training troops with war is feasible, but ten stop recruits come, seven stop when they go back, and three stop Died on the grassland... And if we still use the original Dingzhou veterans, or the old subordinates of the Zhengxi Army brought out by His Highness, these people would not have to die in the first place."
"But..." Fan Xian knew that he had to remind Hongcheng of certain things, lest he would unknowingly commit a taboo in the future, "Just using the old subordinates of the Dingzhou Army and Zhengxi Army...how could it be possible to attack the Northern Qi and Dongyi? Two years ago The capital rebelled, the Qin family's rebels were killed and injured, the army was suddenly unstable, and the military strength dropped sharply. Your Majesty must use Dingzhou to regain the edge of the Qing army! There is no need to talk about this matter, and you should not speak to the court again , not only has no effect, but it will make His Majesty displeased."
"Of course, His Majesty won't watch you suffer here alone." A mocking smile appeared on the corner of Fan Xian's lips, "Didn't I come too?"
Li Hongcheng shook his head and did not continue to discuss this topic.
Fan Xian looked at him, and suddenly said, "How often do you take a bath now?"
Li Hongcheng was taken aback: "I didn't remember, about half a month?"
Fan Xian sniffled and scolded with a smile, "No wonder you smell so bad."
Li Hongcheng glared at him.
Fan Xian smiled and said, "There is a deep well in Dingzhou City, there is no shortage of water at all, and you are a great general, can't you just take a bath?"
"Lazy." Li Hongcheng shook his head with a smile, and said, "If you're like me, you've spent half a year dealing with barbarians in the grasslands and deserts, and you'll get used to the days when you don't take a bath. , surrounded by a bunch of rough people, who cares about this."
"The subordinates don't care, so don't the concubines in the mansion care too?" Fan Xian picked up a slice of courgette, stuffed it into his mouth and chewed, and said vaguely.
Li Hongcheng was stunned for a while, then smiled and said after a while: "There is no concubine Ji in the house, and the members of Lao Ye's family have already returned to Beijing, so I will keep a few servants."
Fan Xian raised his head in astonishment, and couldn't believe his ears. Prince Jing's son, Li Hongcheng, was famous for his flirtatiousness in the capital, and secretly managed half of the world's brothel lovers for the second prince. Single in Dingzhou, unexpectedly don't have a concubine
As if guessing what Fan Xian was thinking, Li Hongcheng tapped the wine bowl lightly with his index finger, and said softly, "If Ruoruo doesn't like it, that's why I quit."
Fan Xian couldn't speak, and after a while he quietly said, "I'm sorry for you in this matter."
"What did you do to apologize to me?" Li Hongcheng scolded with a smile.
Fan Xian shook his head, stopped talking about this, and said, "When I saw you for the first time in Yishiju, you were surrounded by people from the door, and you were unrestrained and unrestrained. I didn't expect you to look like this now."
"There's nothing wrong with this appearance." Thinking about what happened around him in the past five or six years, Li Hongcheng also felt a little emotional, "That day, there was a stone on the top, and there were Guo Baokun, He Zongwei and the others..."
If Li Hongcheng hadn't mentioned it, Fan Xian might have forgotten who Guo Baokun was.
"You punched Guo Baokun, and later you made a fuss about him and ruined his family." Li Hongcheng looked at Fan Xian with a half-smile and said, "He Zongwei has now become a big celebrity in the imperial court, His Majesty's favorite, everything in the world is like this, I Being able to stay out of it is relatively good.”
Fan Xian smiled and said nothing.
"You are so ruthless. Before you entered the capital, the capital was peaceful for over ten years." Li Hongcheng continued, "But since you entered the capital, people have died one after another. But you must have never thought that He Zongwei, that bastard, could actually crawl Up to the current position. The Metropolitan Procuratorate is strangling your Overwatch Council’s neck in Beijing, and he has started to discuss matters under the Zhongshu, and has already begun to threaten you... "
It has to be said that Li Hongcheng and Fan Xian were surprisingly consistent in their attitudes towards Mr. He. This was because they both held grudges very much. He remembered that He Zongwei wanted to take revenge on Fan Ruoruo, the snow swan.
Fan Xian smiled mockingly, and said, "He Zongwei climbed high and fell fast in the future, so I don't worry about anything."
"Of course you won't be afraid of him." Li Hongcheng laughed, "Although I haven't returned to Beijing, I've heard of the nickname Sansurname Household Slave. You must have picked it up."
Fan Xian chuckled twice, acquiescing.
Li Hongcheng pointed to his nose and sighed: "You... It's still the same tricks, first of all, to ruin people's reputation, and then relying on His Majesty's favor, start to play unreasonable dirty tricks, but I remind you Well, He Zongwei is different from me, and also different from the second child, he is a courtier raised by His Majesty, you can't touch him easily."
This trick is indeed Fan Xian's common trick. Back then, he used this trick to put the deeds of murdering prostitutes and ruining his reputation on the second prince and Li Hongcheng. In the end, he forced the second prince to make a dangerous move, and then Li Hongcheng was imprisoned by Prince Jing in the palace for more than half a year.
"That's right, many officials in the imperial court are now hugging He Zongwei's thighs... House servants with three surnames? In fact, the masters he has been with all along are surnamed Li, and creatures like officials don't taboo such things as fame." Fan Xian said sarcastically. : "It's just that these officials probably didn't expect that no matter how the situation in the court develops, He Zongwei will inevitably die in the future."
"How to say?"
In front of Hongcheng, Fan Xian didn't hide anything, and said with a sneer, "Your Majesty uses the Metropolitan Procuratorate to check and balance the Control Yuan, and to reduce the power of the Control Yuan. This point was made clear to me in advance. I agree with this very much. It is not a good thing for the imperial court or the common people for the Yuan family to dominate.”
"But the Overwatch Council's reputation is here. Your Majesty must choose a courtier who dares to oppose me... So He Zongwei was chosen, because this person knows that no matter how the future develops, I will definitely not let him go." Fan Xian's There was a hint of indifference on the corner of his lips: "So he can only climb up hard, but no matter how strong his ability is, he can develop the Metropolitan Procuratorate to the point where he can confront the Overwatch Council, but so what? It's the Metropolitan Procuratorate. The yamen is up, it's not him."
"On the day when the Overwatch Council really becomes the Procuratorate, He Zongwei will no longer be of any use." Fan Xian shook his head, "Your Majesty only has such a few sons now, and the youngest son can only succeed him. How will San think about the future? At the beginning of succession, I always have to consider my attitude... He Zongwei has suppressed me for so long, what if he doesn't pay the price?"
"He is a grass without foundation, just held in His Majesty's hands, so his life depends on how many years His Majesty can live."
Li Hongcheng felt a chill in his heart when he heard that.
Fan Xian closed his eyes and said, "Everyone thinks that His Majesty is in good health and is a great master, but they never thought that His Majesty is now in his fifties or sixties."
Li Hongcheng shook his head: "I have to admit, I don't see things as far as you do."
"Naturally, otherwise you wouldn't have been imprisoned by Prince Jing for so long." Fan Xian looked at him with a smile.
"Thinking about it now, you saved my life." Li Hongcheng lowered his head and said, "If I had stayed in the capital two years ago, I'm afraid I would be dead now."
He raised his head and sighed, "Just like the second child."
…
…
When the dead people were mentioned, the atmosphere became tense again. After a long time, Li Hongcheng forced a smile and said: "Of course, I can't blame you for this matter. What you said to your second child in the tea shop outside Baoyue Building that day, he told me later... I know, you I just want to beat the second child down, and I also want to save his life, but... he is actually as stubborn as you, and he doesn't really listen to people's words."
From the very beginning, Li Hongcheng stood behind the second prince in the battle for the heir apparent. Fan Xian's powerful attack after taking charge of the Overwatch Council only managed to get Li Hongcheng out of the poisonous pool in the capital, but he didn't get the second prince out. But Fan Xian knew that the reason why Hongcheng supported the second prince was not only because of future interests, but because they were excellent friends.
"I'm sorry for their departure." Fan Xian said, "But there are too many things in the world that we cannot completely solve."
"I've always been curious." Li Hongcheng stared into Fan Xian's eyes, and said, "Both the second child and His Highness the Crown Prince are working hard to carry out certain things, but it seems that only you, from the very beginning, have decided The tossing and tossing of these princes will end in a very miserable failure, how did you judge this? Did you ingeniously calculate from the beginning that they have no possibility of success at all?"
"It's related to my childhood education." Fan Xian replied earnestly: "When I was young, my grandma would hold me, and she would keep telling me, Your Majesty is like this, Your Majesty is like that, Your Majesty is invincible, what about Your Majesty … I got used to it, I accepted it, and…”
He shook his head: "The final facts also prove that His Majesty is indeed... invincible."
Li Hongcheng was silent and could only shake his head.
"Let's go back to the capital. I know you're afraid of getting hurt, but it's also good to go and see the second child. He, Cheng Qian, the empress, and the eldest princess are all buried on a beautiful hill with a nice view." Fan Xian sincerely persuaded the prodigal son who left home and refused to return: "Besides, the prince's health is getting worse and worse. As a son, you should always go back and have a look."
Li Hongcheng didn't agree, but said sincerely: "Father suffered a serious illness last year, thanks to your care, Roujia's letter said everything, thank you."
"Why do we need to use the word thank you?" Fan Xian looked at him, and seemingly casually mentioned: "At the end of the year, Ruoruo wants to return to Beijing."
Li Hongcheng suddenly raised his head, his eyes lit up.
"Ye Linger came to Dingzhou to relax, why didn't I see her?" Fan Xian didn't continue with the previous question, but asked another person he cared about.
After the death of the second prince, Wan'er stayed with Ye Ling'er for a while, but in the end it was not very effective. Later, Ye Zhong asked for an order to send his daughter back to Dingzhou City where she grew up. Hongcheng is here, he has a deep friendship with the second prince, it is indeed more appropriate for him to take care of Ye Linger.
Li Hongcheng smiled wryly, and said: "After seeing the prairie, this princess feels much better. It's just that she's not a character who can relax, and she's in Qingzhou at this time."
"Qingzhou?" Fan Xian gasped, and blamed, "That's the most remote state city, and it will start a war with Xihu at any time!"
"What can I do?" Li Hongcheng glared at him, "There are countless old generals of the Ye family in the Western Camp, and those generals looked at Ye Linger as if they were their ancestors, and they didn't even dare to fart. Going to the frontier to fight, kill and heal wounds, can I stop it?"
Fan Xian shook his head again and again, cursing, "What a nonsense." Then he suddenly thought of something, and said, "Fortunately, I'm going to Qingzhou soon, and when I come back, tie her back."
As soon as these words came out, it was Li Hongcheng's turn to gasp, and cursed angrily: "You go to Qingzhou? Could it be that you want to come up with something, and then His Majesty slaughtered all the Dingzhou army and buried them with you!"
