Chapters 64 to 65: The double walls of civil and military affairs (2)

The spring breeze blows, and the sings of pride are singing.

Wang Hongyi divided some horses and asked Fan Liuhai to take his five brothers back first, and the others slowly walked to the mansion.

Although Fan Liuhai did not say that, he did not deny what Wang Hongyi said about colluding with foreign thieves. Wang Hongyi knew that the matter was very urgent, so he set off until dawn.

It’s different from yesterday’s search. Now you can go back directly. When it’s near noon, you’ll return to Wenyang Mansion.

As soon as he returned, Wang Hongyi issued an order asking the mansion to rectify the banquet, and immediately ordered Changding Prefecture and Luchuan County to be on guard against Du Gongzhen's possible attack.

And strengthen reconnaissance in Taisu County.

But at this moment, one person reported, "General, there is a man outside named Zhang Youzhi, who holds his faith and seeks his opinion."

Wang Hongyi ran for a long time yesterday, but didn't sleep well at night, and came back from Mercedes-Benz in the morning for a long time. He was very tired at this time. After hearing this, he instinctively wanted to refuse, but then he wanted to speak. He suddenly remembered who this person was, and immediately stood up and said, "It turns out that this person defected to me. No wonder I have a stable fortune."

He immediately said, "I'll come out to greet him personally, where is he now?"

"It's in the side hall!"

"Take me there!" Wang Hongyi said.

The attendant had to take him there, and after walking along the corridor for a while, he arrived at a side hall with intermittent conversations inside. He pushed the door up and saw a minor official talking with someone.

Wang Hongyi went in and smiled before he could speak: "This is Mr. Zhang. I came from afar, but the town was unable to greet him. It was a mistake!"

As he said that, his eyes lit up. He saw that he was wearing a wide-sleeved robe, half-old wooden clogs, a pretty face, and black gem-like pupils. His eyes shine brightly, and his every move had a chic and outspoken manner, which made people forget the world at first sight.

Wang Hongyi couldn't help but think in his heart: "I haven't seen many people in my previous life, but I'm really different in character."

Zhang Youzhi also stood up quickly and bowed and said, "Students don't dare, are you General Dingyuan?"

As he spoke, he looked at it and saw that the young man in front of him was younger than him, but under his two dark eyebrows, his eyes flashed, making people dare not look at him. Naturally, he had majesty and his heart was thrilling. This man was General Dingyuan.

The two of them greeted each other and sat down separately. Wang Hongyi said first: "I wrote a letter last month, hoping that Mr. I will come and come. Now he is very happy. Did Mr. give in?

Zhang Youzhi smiled. He was so impatient that he was still young, but he was grateful for his desire to seek talent. He immediately responded: "Yes, the general is heroic, I am willing to be a vassal."

"Okay, Mr. Zhang is a talented man, but unfortunately, the rules have their own rules. Let's do this. Mr. Qu took up the position of Rulin Lang, and he is close to him. How about?"

Rulin Lang is a ninth rank. He has this position as soon as he comes in. He has already taken great importance to it.

After hearing this, Zhang Youzhi knelt down and said, "I am very willing to accept the order to pay homage to the lord."

Things went so well that Wang Hongyi was overjoyed. He hurriedly stepped forward and helped him up, and said with a smile: "You came today. I ran a hundred miles last night and took over a general. You can get close to you."

He turned his head and ordered the left and right to record the records and said, "Secretary Lang Yu Zhao worked hard and made great contributions. He was promoted from the seventh rank Xuandelang, and Yu Liang had a wealth of literature and knowledge, and was promoted to the Rulin Lang."

After hearing this, Zhang Youzhi seemed to have some understanding. He knew that the old man had not been promoted directly to Rulinlang. This time he promoted himself, for fear of affecting the relationship, so he was grateful to him.

At this time, someone informed me: "General, the banquet has been rectified."

Wang Hongyi said with a smile: "I have already ordered to prepare the official uniform seal, and I have already lived in the house. After our banquet, I must have finished it. Please, sir."

"Lord, please ask first!" Since the title of the monarch and minister is naturally polite, Zhang Youzhi took two steps to make concessions and asked.

Wang Hongyi smiled and went out first. At this time, a wind blew in, and the air was filled with water, which was wet. It was the smell of spring breeze, and both of them were refreshed.

At this time, there was light rain outside. The followers who were serving outside held up oil umbrellas. Wang Hongyi also put on wooden clogs and came out from the front. In the rainy sky, Wang Hongyi walked in the rain and walked along the corridor.

Zhang Youzhi followed, looking at him for a long time, and couldn't help but exclaim in a low voice: "It's really like a dragon walking and a tiger walking."

In the evening, a middle-aged man, decorated by a businessman, rode his horse on the road leading to Taisu County in Wenyang Prefecture. In my memory, there are only a handful of people running like this.

There was still cold in March, but sweat was already seen on my head. The horse under my seat was whimpering and waiting to breathe, and it seemed extremely tired.

Finally, when he arrived at Taisu County, a high-quality horse was exhausted and almost exhausted. However, he didn't care about these things and hurried to the door of Li's house.

At this time, there were several people standing at the gate of Li's house, including guards and two or three idle servants, chatting in a lively manner.

He led the horse to the front, looked coldly, and said, "You are leisurely."

"Ah, it turns out that Manager Xiao is back!" The people at the door knew him naturally, and when they saw him say this, they were embarrassed to smile.

Someone took the reins from his hand and went to wash and feed the horses on his behalf. The others greeted him.

It can be seen that Manager Xiao is very popular in his daily life.

"Manager Xiao, where are you going? Why are you so embarrassed?" Seeing his face exhausted, a servant asked.

A man who is usually gentle in treating others has changed his face at this time. Manager Xiao looked at the man up and down a few times and said coldly: "Some things should not be asked if you should not wait for you to know. Remember, the less you know, the longer you can live."

The cold expression was so terrifying that the person who was warned was shocked and bowed and said, "Yes, the little one remembers it."

Seeing that Manager Xiao was walking quickly inside and was already far away, the man said to his companion: "Tsk, what's so great? Isn't it just that I go out frequently or that I am not an ordinary manager in the mansion? Why are you arrogant?"

"Lao Sai, you have just been in the new house for a few years. I don't know the details of this person. He is not the ordinary manager you think. This person is the master's confidant, and he is a smile. Stay away from him in the future. Don't cause trouble."

Seeing that he was very depressed, an insider immediately had a kind heart, pulled his sleeve and whispered a reminder.

"Oh?" Hearing this, Lao Sai looked at Manager Xiao leaving the direction, and a thoughtful expression suddenly flashed on his face.

The person they were talking about had no time to pay attention to others' opinions. He was walking quickly towards Li Cunyi's study when he happened to meet Li Chengye on the way.

"Manager Xiao?" Li Chengye looked at the person in front of him, and a complicated look flashed in his eyes instantly, calling him. "Are you just returning from outside?"

"Yes, young master." Manager Xiao bowed and replied.

"But is there any news coming back?" Li Chengye stared at his eyes and asked with a smile.

A gentle attitude and elegant demeanor are indeed impressive, but it is useless to Manager Xiao.

Manager Xiao said without changing his face: "Young Master, I have indeed found out the news and am about to report back to the master. If there is nothing else, Manager Xiao will say goodbye in advance."

As he said that, he bowed to Li Chengye and quickly walked towards Li Cunyi's study.

For such a person who did not enter the oil smoke, Li Chengye felt unhappy for a moment. Then he held back.

Since Zhou Zhu died tragically and Fan Liuhai left, Li Chengye's power in the Li family has been much worse than before. Although some people can be driven by it, he is quite helpless.

These things made Li Chengye feel a little gloomy.

"Are you only loyal to my father? But even in the past, this person will give me some shame. Why is he so alienated from me this time?" Li Chengye has always been sensitive to these things, and he felt it out of his mind after a few words.

Looking at the other party leaving the direction, Li Chengye pondered for a moment before turning around and walking towards his courtyard.

"Manager Xiao, have you investigated this matter clearly?" In Li Cunyi's study, the middle-aged head of the family, who had always been calm, had his face turned pale at this time.

He walked back and forth a few steps, turned around and stared at Manager Xiao: "You can see clearly, that person... is really Fan Liuhai?"

"Lord, I can see it very clearly. That person is indeed Fan Yingzheng." Manager Xiao replied affirmatively.

Li Cunyi frowned and angrily said, "He is no longer a Taisu County Camp."

"For a small mistake, please forgive me." Seeing that Li Cunyi was unhappy, Manager Xiao hurriedly admitted his mistake.

Li Cunyi waved his hand and said, "It's not your business... I really didn't expect that he actually defected to the Wang family. He originally thought that he was just leaving Taisu County, but he didn't expect that he was rebellious."

Fan Liuhai once held an important official position in the Li family. Such a person participated in core meetings several times and went to Wang Hongyi. I am afraid that many things in the Li family are no longer a secret.

Once Wang Hongyi knew about it, he was afraid that the Li family would be overthrown immediately. In a blink of an eye, a sense of crisis was densely covered his whole body.

But if I really know, there should be soldiers coming to the door now, why is there no movement?

Li Cunyi thought to himself, and when he remembered Fan Liuhai's character, he seemed not to be the seller. Didn't he explain it yet?

Even if he didn't say it, the Li family would be out of danger. Thinking that this person was Li Chengye's confidant, Li Cunyi was furious.

It was this child who caused a big disaster again!

At this time, Li Cunyi couldn't help but feel angry, but he didn't expect that the rift between these father and son were all caused by the last time he forced Zhou Zhu to kill him. However, he was becoming increasingly dissatisfied with his beloved son.

However, the two young sons far away in Jiangnan would write letters back from time to time, which made them gradually feel good about them.

Perhaps, as long as he survived this period of time, he should reconsider the matter of the heir. This thought was temporarily suppressed after just one change of time. The situation is urgent and he cannot think about other things.

"Manager Xiao, you go down first. Thank you for your hard work this time. Go to the account to get a few taels of silver and go home to see your mother." Facing his confidant in front of him, Li Cunyi was very calm and showed no traces.
