scourge the qing dynasty

Chapter 18
(PS: There are two updates today, and the first one will be delivered. Please recommend, collect, and reward.)
"What? Your lord agrees to meet me?" Hearing the order delivered by King Pingnan's guards, the already somewhat hopeless Lu Da county magistrate was so overjoyed that he couldn't believe his ears—when he set off from Kunming, Liu Xuanchu However, he had introduced Shang Kexi and Wu Sangui to the magistrate of Da County Lu about the situation of Shang Kexi and Wu Sangui, so the magistrate of Da County Lu was already mentally prepared to be rejected.

"What are you talking about? Didn't you hear clearly?" The guard of the Pingnan Palace who came to deliver the order impatiently waved his hand and repeated: "The prince will meet you in the Jiujian Hall, come with us, the people you brought to the front Rest at the inn, there will be someone to entertain them."

"Thank you, thank you." County Magistrate Lu Da was overjoyed, and hurriedly turned around and told Kong Fanlin, Xiao Erlang and others to rest at the post station, while he followed the guards into the Pingnan Palace, and rushed all the way to the most luxurious mansion in Shang Kexi's mansion. The magnificent Nine Houses——Although the county magistrate Lu did not intend to curry favor with the old traitor Shang, but after finally coming to this era, the county magistrate Lu Da was very happy to be able to witness the ugly face of the old traitor Shang with his own eyes. .But at this moment, the magistrate Lu Da followed the two guards around the front hall and rushed to the back garden. One of the guards suddenly slowed down and said in a very low voice in the ear of the magistrate Lu: "Four There is an order to tell you to be smart, playing tricks is not good for you."

"What?" County Magistrate Lu Da was taken aback, and when he looked up at the guard again, the guard changed his serious face and shouted, "Why? Didn't you hear me? Tell you to dust off your body, so as not to dirty the prince." The Nine Halls, do you understand?"

"Understood, understood." County Magistrate Lu agreed with a frowning face, and even more frowning brushed off the dirt and dust stained on his body during the journey, thinking to himself, "Oh no! I never thought that bitch Kong Sizhen would actually be placed in the Pingnan Palace. I got the eyeliner, and I told them in advance to let these eyeliners warn me and keep an eye on me. In this way, I have to make a fake show to persuade Shang Kexi, the old traitor, to take the initiative to ask for withdrawal, otherwise Kong Sizhen, the female traitor, will be killed immediately. If you know that the things I said in Xunzhou are all lies to her, you will definitely not let me off easily. But if you say so, the old traitor Shang believes it is true, and you really want to join hands with the old traitor Wu Sangui to request the withdrawal of the feudal clan, then Wu Sangui old traitor still has to peel my skin?!"

In a dilemma, although the county magistrate Lu could still remain calm on the surface, the previous elation in his heart had been swept away. While tremblingly following the two guards to meet the old traitor Shang, he quickly calculated countermeasures in his mind , and the luxurious palace built with exhaustion of people's fat and people's aspirations is also out of sight, but all the way to the front of the Nine Halls, our Fatty Lu County Magistrate still hasn't figured out an appropriate strategy, I don't know whether we should follow Wu Sangui this old When the traitor comes, he should follow Kong Sizhen, the female traitor, and he is helpless for a while.But the two guards leading the way for Lu Da County Magistrate didn't care so much, they just urged: "Hurry up, the prince will summon you here, don't make the prince wait too long."

"No way, let's adapt to the situation after we go in!" The magistrate of Lu Da County gritted his teeth, strode into the hall with his head held high, and then passed through the main hall paved with white stones specially transported from Zhaoqing to the side hall. He was led to the door of a very elegantly furnished wing room, and just as the guards were about to go forward to report, they heard a rough voice in the room saying: "Wan Yi, this is the vegetarian food that Dad asked someone to prepare for you. See if it suits your taste, if not, ask the cook to redo it."

"Thank you dad, the vegetarian food is very delicious, you don't need to do it again." A very crisp but not very warm female voice said softly: "Father, you should also eat more vegetarian food. My daughter heard from the doctor that there is a lot of meat every day." And delicacies from mountains and seas are not good for your health."

"I'm still filial and filial. I know how to care about my father's body. It's much better than your brothers and sisters who only know how to eat, drink, play cards and watch theaters every day." The rough man laughed, looking very satisfied with his daughter's filial piety, "Okay, Dad listens to you, eat more vegetarian food in the future, but you also have to eat a few more meals with dad, don't go to the monk's temple and nunnery all day long, if you want to worship Buddha, dad can ask someone to build a Buddhist hall for you. "

"Huh? Is there really such a fate between me and this girl?" Hearing the woman's voice, the innocent heart of Fatty Lu, County Magistrate Lu couldn't help beating a little faster.At this time, the guard guarding the wing had already reported the news that the county magistrate Lu had brought to the old traitor Shang, at first the rough male voice immediately shouted: "Tell him to come in."

Hearing this, County Magistrate Lu hurriedly straightened his clothes again, strode into the room with his chest straightened out, and took a closer look at the door. As expected, there was the cold girl whom he had met twice before sitting at the dining table in the room. Opposite the girl sat an ugly old man in his 60s, dressed luxuriously, with a ferocious face, high cheekbones, short beard around his eyes, tall and fat as compared to our county magistrate Lu, but his skin was dark and rough. It could be considered extremely ugly, in stark contrast to the cold and pretty girl opposite him.And behind the old man, stood a middle-aged scholar with a handsome appearance, his horoscope eyebrows were parted, and his eyes were very sharp like lacquer. When he glanced around, he gave people a feeling of exposure that penetrated into the bone marrow, which seemed very Shrewd and capable.The county magistrate of Lu Da guessed his age, hurriedly strode up to the ugly black and fat old man, bowed and clasped his hands and said: "Lu Yifeng, the humble magistrate of Qujing County, is 25 years old, a native of Dali Prefecture, Yunnan, and has not yet been married. Thousands of years, thousands of years!"

"Why did you report your age and whether you are married? The king didn't ask you?" The old man Shang was so baffled that he didn't even notice that the county magistrate Lu refused to kneel to him.The county magistrate of Lu Da also came back to his senses at this moment, and quickly replied: "Go back to the lord, when I first saw the mighty power of the lord, I felt a ray of auspicious light go straight to the sky, my mind was shaken, and my mind was blank, so I didn't dare to hide my family background. If you are disrespectful, I hope the prince will forgive you."

"A beam of auspicious light went straight into the heavenly spirit, shaking your mind? You, Fatty Lu, really know how to flatter, hahahahaha..." The old man Shang laughed loudly, and he had a somewhat favorable impression of the county magistrate Lu.The old man and treacherous staff member Jin Guang and Monk Wanyan next to him were also amused by the shameless flattery of the county magistrate Lu Da. With a cry, she showed a smile that was more beautiful than flowers. She really looked back at Bai Meisheng, Liugong Fendai was colorless, and she was stunned by the county magistrate Lu who had been peeking at her all the time.The old traitor Shang also squinted at his daughter's smile, and couldn't help but stand up with joy, and said with great joy, "Wanyi, are you smiling? How many years has it been since Dad saw you smile? Come on, show Dad another smile!" "

"Wanyan? It should be called Shang Wanyan." Lu Da County Magistrate quietly kept this name in his heart.On the other side, Shang Wanyan quickly recovered her previous cold and indifferent expression, and said softly to the traitor Shang: "Father, my daughter is rude, she lost her composure in front of outsiders."

"Silly girl, why are you losing your temper? Come on, show me another smile." The old man Shang said anxiously.Shang Wan was taken aback, and when she tried to squeeze out a smile again, she was no longer as charming as before—to put it in a bad way, it was even uglier than crying.The old traitor Shang was disappointed at first, then quickly turned around and shouted at the magistrate Lu: "Fatty Lu, tell me another joke, as long as I can make my daughter laugh again, I will reward you very much."

"Fuck! I'm not a traitorous jester like Wei Xiaobao, why do you want to coax your daughter for you?!" The rather self-respecting magistrate Lu Da was furious in his heart, but he didn't dare to show it, so he could only cry and say, "My lord, I'm a lowly official!" No... no jokes."

"Trash!" The old traitor Shang was furious, and blurted out habitually: "Come on, push this trash out to me, cut it up and feed it to the dogs!"

"Zha!" The guards of the palace outside the door agreed together, and the four guards rushed in at the same time, and immediately pushed the county magistrate Lu to the ground.The county magistrate of Lu County was so frightened that he was scared out of his wits, and quickly shouted: "My lord, please forgive me, my lord, what did you do wrong?" Fortunately, Shang Wanyi did not have a good impression of the county magistrate Lu , but also didn't want to see the county magistrate Lu died for his innocence, so he stood up and begged: "Father, it's my daughter who can't laugh by herself, it's none of Mr Lu's business, please forgive him."

"My lord, Mr. Lu is not an official from Guangdong, but someone sent by Pingxi lord." Jin Guang, the behind-the-scenes guest, also reminded him.Seeing that his daughter and his confidant staff objected, the old traitor Shang waved his hand angrily, and drove the guard who was holding down Lu Da County Magistrate out of the wing room, knocked Erlang's leg again, and asked coldly: "Is Lu Yifeng right? Wu Sangui's?" What did the old man send you to do?"

"Submit a letter personally written by Prince Pingxi to the prince." County magistrate Lu took out the resealed letter from his arms, raised his hands above his head, and added: "In addition, Prince Pingxi I also want an official to represent him and discuss some small matters with the prince."

Looking at the letter in Lu Da County Magistrate's hand, the old traitor Shang didn't speak, but turned his head to Jin Guang and pouted. Jin Guang understood, stepped forward to take the letter and handed it to the old traitor Shang. After opening the letter and reading it carefully, he still didn't say anything, and passed it to Jin Guang to let him read the content.Taking advantage of this free time, our County Magistrate Lu could not help sneaking a few sneaky glances at Shang Wanyan. Although the murderous old traitor Shang was present, the Magistrate Lu Daxian did not dare to peek for a long time, but after a few glances, Lu Daxian Ling still once collided with Shang Wanyi who had no intention of turning his head, and the four eyes met. The county magistrate Lu quickly threw a charming look at him, and Shang Wanyi almost got goosebumps all over his body, and quickly turned his pretty face away in disgust. , For the first time, there was a feeling in my heart that I wanted to tear the fat man in front of me who was looking at me affectionately into pieces.

After finally waiting for Old Traitor Shang and Jin Guang to finish reading, the master-slave with ulterior motives exchanged glances with each other, thinking that as expected, Wu Sangui’s old fox did not leave any clues in the autographed letter. Apart from the nasty friendship and the nonsense of mutual greetings, the only sentence that is enough weight is that there is another important matter for the emissary Lu Yifeng to report to his face. It seems that if he wants to take advantage of this opportunity to get along with his old enemy Wu Sangui, he can only open a gap from this big fat man up.At this point, the old traitor Shang coughed and asked, "Lu Yifeng, I have accepted the letter you brought, and Prince Pingxi said in the letter that there are still some small matters that you need to report to the king face to face. The king is a little free now, so let’s talk about something.”

"Oops, I was just peeking at the beauties, and I completely forgot how to prepare for negotiations with the monk and the traitor." The county magistrate Lu Da, who had just come back to his senses, groaned in his heart, and in desperation had no choice but to use the trick he used to deal with Kong Sizhen last time. Quickly figuring out the countermeasures, while pretending to delay the time, carefully looking around and asking: "My lord, is it convenient for me to talk here?"

"It's funny, it seems that old bastard Wu Sangui is really planning to play some tricks." The old traitor Shang was secretly happy, and hurriedly pretended to be calm and lazily waved his hands and said: "Tell me, this place is very safe, the people in this prince's mansion, They are all reliable people that the king can trust. Mr. Jin, bring a chair for Mr. Lu, let him sit down and talk slowly."

"No wonder it's safe! If it's really safe and reliable, that female traitor Kong Sizhen won't be able to reach in!" County Magistrate Lu snorted coldly in his heart. Numb feeling——if I was under the surveillance of her eyeliner, if I played tricks and played tricks, with the cruelty and viciousness of that female traitor, I would definitely die before I got the lesson, and the hero would burst into tears.Thinking up to this point, County Magistrate Lu gritted his teeth again, secretly made up his mind, first thanked Jin Guang for the chair he brought, sat opposite old Shang's treacherous father and daughter, and said seriously: "If that's the case, then it's a shameful post."

"Let's talk." The old traitor Shang waved his hand lazily again, but his eyes couldn't wait to wink at Jin Guang. Jin Guang understood, put his hand behind his back and gestured quietly towards the back hall, letting him hide in the back hall. The secretary's office made preparations for the transcript, and recorded every word Lu Daxian magistrate said, in case the old traitor Shang would sue Wu Sangui for tricks to the court in the future.But to the astonishment of the old traitor Shang and the dog-headed military advisor Jin Guang, the magistrate of Lu Da County actually said...

"Prince Pingnan, you dare to speak out." Lu Da County Magistrate said very seriously: "I was ordered to visit the prince this time, not for anything else, but to persuade the prince to take the initiative to ask the court to remove San Francisco and let the three The prince returned to his hometown in Liaodong to retire!"

Note: Jin Guang, Shang Kexi's staff member, is not a fictional character, he is a historical figure, he is extremely trusted and reused by the old traitor, and he is also a hardcore traitor. The arms were merged, restraining a large number of Wu Sangui's troops, and was later killed by Shang Zhixin.
