    (ps: Happy Dragon Boat Festival to all my friends.)

    As expected by Magistrate Lu Da, the old traitor Shang really suffered from insomnia the night he met Magistrate Lu Da, and the reason for his insomnia happened to be the letter of introduction specially written by Kong Sizhen to Magistrate Lu Da.  Originally, this letter was just a random letter written by Kong Sizhen knowing about the bad relationship between the old traitor Shang and Wu Sangui, and worried that the old traitor Shang would not meet the county magistrate Lu. The letter was just a hypocritical greeting to old Shang  The traitor, and I hope that the old traitor Shang can meet the holder of the book. He didn't mention the issue of withdrawing the feudal vassal in half a word, and there is no mandatory requirement that the old traitor Shang must adopt the opinion of the county magistrate Lu.

    If the county magistrate Lu came up with this letter to explain Kong Sizhen's intentions, the old traitor Shang would definitely not have extraneous ideas. The big thing is to spend a little money to host a banquet.  Lu Da County Magistrate, who was a scourge of the Qing Dynasty, gave Kong Sizhen enough face.  But the villainous magistrate of Lu County did not do this, he had to talk about the strategy of slowly withdrawing the feudal clan first, and then mysteriously took out Kong Sizhen's letter, and even if he wanted to die, he did not say what Kong Sizhen was.  Meaning - In this way, if it were you, would you not doubt Kong Sizhen's true intentions?

    "Oh, it's really troublesome." After reading Kong Sizhen's introduction letter with nothing to do with it for the sixth time, the bloodshot eyes of the old traitor Shang lay back on the couch again, muttering in his mouth: "What the hell is going on with Sigege's letter?"  What does it mean? Could it be that she is trying to imply to me that she wants me to adopt this strategy of slowly withdrawing the vassal, asking for more military pay from the court every year to settle the sergeants, and then submitting a petition to withdraw the vassal when the time is right? If this is true  What Kong Sizhen, that little slut meant, that is to say, the person behind her also meant the same thing."

    "My lord, my lord, the little golden light knocked on my lord." The golden light's voice interrupted old traitor Shang's muttering to himself, and then asked with concern: "Your lord, the circles under your eyes are dark, didn't you rest well last night?"

    "How can it be possible to rest well?" The old traitor Shang waved his hand to make Jin Guang stand up, sighed and said, "Worry, you said that little bitch Kong Sizhen is really good at deceiving people, if she has anything to say, just say no to the old man,  Why do you want to play this riddle, it makes the old man have a headache."

    "What the lord said is that Si Gege is indeed too puzzling this time." Jin Guang agreed flatteringly: "She knows that you and that old bastard Wu Sangui will never get along with each other all their lives, but she still writes such a letter.  That old bastard Wu Sangui sent it here, and said those strange words, it was simply to make people guess riddles on purpose."

    "Master Jin, do you think this is what the emperor meant?" The old traitor Shang asked: "Could it be that the emperor made up his mind to use this strategy to withdraw the domain, but he was afraid of being infamous as a dead man?  , That's why you use this tactful method to send this strategy of withdrawing the feudal domain to the hands of this king through the hands of Kong Sizhen and that fat man Lu? Implying that the king will act according to the law?"

    "It's possible." Jin Guang nodded, and said darkly: "But my lord, the students always feel a little strange about this matter. If Si Gege and the emperor behind her really plan to use this method to withdraw the domain, why don't you just tell the lord directly?"  You said, or directly hinted at you, the prince, why did you have to tell you through the hands of a Qipin county magistrate, or a Qipin county magistrate of the West Selected Official?"

    "Yeah, this king is also strange about this." The old traitor Shang pondered: "Originally, the above table requires the imperial court to increase the salary of the Guangdong army, so that the soldiers can accumulate a little savings every year, which is good for the king and the army of the king.  The benefits, this king can accept it, and you can also give it a try - after all, no one can say for sure whether the feudal clan can be withdrawn smoothly in a few years, and it is always better to get some benefits first. But this king just doesn't  I understand Kong, why did Si Zhen ask a Western Selector to suggest this king to do so, so this king has been hesitant to make up his mind."

    "My lord, could this be a trick of old Wu Sangui?" Jin Guang's voice became more and more cold, and he said slowly: "Since this year, the imperial court has obviously accelerated the pace of weakening Wu Sangui's strength.  , although it was refuted by Ao Bai Ao, but the emperor still ordered to copy the excerpt and make it known to the world. It is clear that it is a disguised expression of dissatisfaction with Wu Sangui, forcing Wu Sangui to take the initiative to give in on the issue of military pay. Your lord, if you are here  It will be a great help for Wu Sangui to ask for an increase in salary - after all, the imperial court can't be too partial to the San Francisco issue, right?"

    "I want Lao Tzu to help old man Wu Sangui, unless the sun comes out from the west!" The old traitor Shang was furious, and roared: "If this is really the fault of old man Wu Sangui, then I will immediately ask for a cut in salary, disgusting  Die that old dog!"

    "That's right." Jin Guang nodded, and echoed: "In addition to disgusting that old Wu Sangui, there is also the need to let the emperor and the court know the loyalty of the prince, so as not to let the emperornbsp; Jin Guang, the dog-headed military strategist, is indeed an out-and-out bad breed. Although his suggestion of kicking the ball back to Wu Sangui was mostly out of helplessness, he hit the vital point of our County Magistrate Lu!  So much so that when he told Magistrate Lu Da County Magistrate Shang about his decision to adopt his suggestion, Magistrate Lu Da County Magistrate's fat forehead suddenly became greasy and sweaty!

    The county magistrate Lu Da was really panicked. The purpose of Wu Sangui sending Lu Da county magistrate to Guangzhou was to persuade the old traitor Shang and his son to form an alliance with Wu Sangui to fight against the Manchu Qing court together, and to let the old traitor Shang and his son present to the Qing court.  Asking for an increase in salary will increase the bargaining chip for Wu Sangui's upcoming negotiations with the Manchu Qing court on the issue of military salary.  As a result, the magistrate of Lu County had to return to Yunnan to deal with Wu Sangui with such a result of jointly withdrawing the vassal. Wu Sangui had to peel off the fat skin of the magistrate of Lu Da?

    Of course, it cannot be entirely blamed on the incompetence of Lu Da County Magistrate. The key is that Kong Sizhen suddenly got involved in this matter, and the ghost of the Manchu Qing court appeared.  But still the same sentence, no matter how many twists and turns and accidents there are, how much helplessness and compulsion there are, if the county magistrate Lu replied to Wu Sangui with such a result, Wu Sangui still had to peel off the magistrate Lu's fat!  All of a sudden, the county magistrate of Lu Da, who is still young after all, really didn't know what to do.

    "What should we do? What should we do?" After sending away the smirking Jin Guang, the magistrate Lu Da, who had been able to keep his composure just now, returned to the room, grabbed his braids and became worried, and lamented: "It's over, it's self-defeating  Yes! If I just take such an answer back to that old traitor Wu Sangui, then even the teacher can¡¯t save me. That old traitor Wu Sangui will definitely chop me up and feed me to the dogs.  If I make cloud legs and pay tribute to Kang Xiaomazi, wouldn¡¯t that make me worse? What should I do? What should I do?¡±

    "Why don't you run away?" County Magistrate Lu Da suddenly had such an idea, "Anyway, Guangdong is not too far away from Taiwan, so I ran to Taiwan by sea to join Zheng Jing and help Zheng Jing and Chen Yonghua fight against the Qing Dynasty and restore the Ming Dynasty?"

    Thinking of this, County Magistrate Lu was greatly moved. He said that it would be good to defect to Zheng Jing, at least because the loyal ministers of Ming Dynasty have a good reputation, but if I go there like this, can I be reused in Zheng Jing¡¯s Taiwan like I was with Wu Sangui?  ?  Although I am only a seventh-rank county magistrate on Wu Sangui's side, at least there is Liu Xuanchu who is deeply trusted by Wu Sangui as a teacher, and everything is much more convenient. What do I have in Zhengjing Taiwan?  Also, Kong Fanlin and the gang of bad guys are the eyeliners sent by Wu Sangui to monitor me. If I run away to join Zheng Jing, will they ignore me?  Besides, what should I do if I run away from the teacher, I am the person he recommended to Wu Sangui, so can he not be implicated?

    "My lord, we are back." While worrying, the Guangzhou Three Tigers, who had only been recruited by the magistrate of Lu County at noon, entered the room. Each of them was wearing a new set of new clothes, and they greeted Lu County happily.  Ling Dao thanked and said: "Thank you for the silver you gave me, we have bought new clothes and shoes, and we have paid off the rent and slate money we owed before. From now on, our brothers will follow you, sir.  If you have anything to do, just tell us, the little ones will never frown."

    "But now I'm also a mud bodhisattva crossing the river, and I can't protect myself." County Magistrate Lu lamented in his heart, but at this moment, County Magistrate Lu looked at the Guangzhou Three Tigers with grateful smiles on their faces, and suddenly his heart moved, and he jumped up and shouted:  "You three, do you know the way to Huizhou? How far is it?"

    "My lord, we know that we have been to Huizhou." Liu Zhenfei quickly replied, "It's not too far away. It's about three hundred and twenty miles away from Guangzhou. If you ride a horse, you can get there in about two days. If you walk, it's about  Four or five days."

    "Very good." Lu Da County Magistrate quickly ordered: "Quickly, call Xiao Erlang and Kong Fanlin and ask them to prepare six fast horses. The three of you will lead the way, and we will go to Huizhou immediately."

    "My lord, it's getting dark." Liu Xu kindly persuaded: "Why don't you go tomorrow at dawn, the road is not easy to walk at night."

    "No matter how difficult it is to go, you have to go!" The county magistrate of Lu Da yelled, "If you want to continue to follow me to eat and drink spicy food, take me to Huizhou to find Shang Zhixin immediately. This is your last chance and it is also my last.  opportunity!" (Remember this site URL: www.hlnovel.com
