Chapter 379
Chapter 381 The battle will begin (Part 2)
Lu Feng narrowed his eyes and smiled a few times, walked to Dugu Tian with a swaying swaying, and said lightly: "Well, I have learned a lesson today? General Dugu, it's not that I, Lu Feng, deliberately made things difficult for you, but you really want to make things difficult for me, Lu Feng first, so, if you don't give you some hardship, how can you be worthy of your master? Well, don't talk about it, there is still something big to do today, so stay and negotiate military affairs together... Don't let anyone gossip, saying that I deliberately suppress the heroes and don't give you a chance to stand out."
Dugu Tian squirted out of his nose, indicating that he had heard Lu Feng's words. He was so angry that he should not say anything. Who did he offend? After returning from a hard night patrol, he was immediately insulted by a person who could not be provoked, and even ate two palms for no reason. Zhu Zhanji... Lu Feng... Well, it turns out that he has the power in his hands to control the life and death of others. His strength is also extremely strong, but he is suppressed by the power in Lu Feng's hands, which is really helpless.
Dugu Tian walked towards the hall with his head hanging down, and weakly ordered the soldiers to: "Go back to my residence and bring me a set of replacement clothes for the general. You guys will go and rest yourself." He waved his hand and waved the soldiers behind him. The soldiers had long been impatient and dispersed after hearing this. They could still hear the gloating laughter from them, as if they were mocking Dugu Tian for offending Zhu Zhanji and Lu Feng, and would definitely die well.
Seeing Dugu Tian like this, Shui Yuanzi raised his eyebrows, shook his head, stood up and patted his butt, and followed Lu Feng into the hall of discussion. He laughed in a low voice: "This Murong Tian is useless. I don't know who has such a way to make him, a man in the martial arts world, reaching the state of distraction in just a few days. But that person did not expect that in Murong Tian's bones, he was still the loyal minister of that boy Zhu Yu. Even if he gave him the ability to do it, he would not be able to support him."
Lu Feng smiled calmly: "Murong Tian is loyal to Zhu Li, but to put it bluntly, it is just that he is too powerful, so although he is now in a profound way of Taoism, he does not dare to anger me. Humph, as long as he is still afraid of the power of the world, he is a disabled person and not worth mentioning. We should be careful of the four Taoists who are following Zhu Li, but their origin is a bit strange... Huo Jia and the others said, are the origins of the four old Taoists?"
Shui Yuanzi shook his head and said with confusion: "Huo Jia and the others said that they had never seen these four people, but they should be their tribe. Isn't this clear? It must have been sent by the four masters of Huo Jia and the others. Humph, that guy's hand was so long that he seemed to want to control the Ming Dynasty's government affairs remotely." Shui Yuanzi frowned and thought for a while, and said in confusion: "What is he doing for a Taoist monk? It's simply inexplicable! Could it be that he thought that the emperor issued an imperial edict to kill people from the Central Plains Taoist Sect and those old Taoists would obey the orders?"
After muttering for a long time, Shui Yuanzi's face became a little serious. He said in a low voice: "I have never done serious things in my life. But this time, maybe... well, then Murong, just throw it to me. I promise that when he goes to the cottage, I will squat on his roof... I secretly plotted against the four of Huo Jia and the others with soul searching techniques, but they really knew nothing about where they came. They seemed to live in a cave and meditate and practice every day. Let me see if this Murong boy would know more about things."
Lu Feng looked at him curiously. This was the first time this old guy was doing something so active. Originally, Lu Feng had just sent a few Huanglongmen disciples to stare at Dugu Tian. Who knew that after hearing about this, Shui Yuanzi volunteered to stare at Dugu Tian with the four of Huo Jia every day. "Could this old guy fall in love with Murong Tian? Hey, this water spirit body does not have the distinction between yin and yang, and this Shui Yuanzi is a man or a woman... Oh, what am I thinking?" Lu Feng felt chills in his body, trembling unconsciously, and hurriedly sat in the main seat of the conference hall.
Dugu Tian also changed his clothes and sat in a large chair on both sides of the hall in a muffled voice. Lu Feng did not look at him or talk about him, muttering in his mouth, and kept flipping through the documents. "Well, Dugu Miefeng, whose original name was Dugu Miefeng, was named Dugu Miefeng, and was changed to Dugu Tian by the crown prince. This is a re-recorded book. Otherwise, if you have a three-length or two-length shortness in the future, the pension will not be distributed to your relatives." Dugu Tian's eyebrows were raised with a harsh tone, but he just didn't have the courage to get angry.
After a while, all the officials from the Governor's Office greeted each other and walked in. Suddenly, they saw Lu Feng sitting in the lobby, and immediately had a serious expression. After the squad saluted Lu Feng, they slowly sat down according to their official position. Lu Feng glanced at him and saw that everyone was coming, then nodded and started to speak: "Well, everyone is here? There are a few things I want to discuss with you today."
"First, in the vassal areas of Gaoyang Prince's Mansion, all civil and military officials were killed by the court, leaving many vacancy. Your Majesty's meaning is to select capable officials from the court to make up for it. Although it has to be selected by the Ministry of Personnel and Your Majesty, as long as you can enter the list, you basically cannot escape the official position. Look at which one has a young nephew in the family and a public office in the big and small yamen in the capital. Go to Zhou Chu to report a name later. I, Lu Feng, will also seek a decent job for my colleagues' homes."
The officials of the Governor's Office lit up and quickly stood up to thank Lu Feng. The flattering officials were already in charge of the official documents of the Governor's Office began to think about which nephew in their family to send out. Being a ninth rank and a small official of the eighth rank in the yamen in the capital is worse than being a parent official in the local area. A ruthless local official can earn at least tens of thousands of taels of silver a year, which is much more nourishing and more majestic than when he was in the capital.
Dugu Tian secretly envied Lu Feng, which was like openly using the state's official position to win over his subordinates. He thought: "No wonder these officials in the Governor's Office obeyed Lu Feng's orders, but Lu Feng also had his benefits. Alas, if Your Highness had not been kind to me, it would be a great thing to defect to Lu Feng." He hung his head and did not speak for a long time, and was envious and jealous of Lu Feng in his heart.
Lu Feng coughed, stopped the rolling flattery, and said in a deep voice: "Second, who is the nephew of you who serves in the Jinyiwei? In the third prince's vassal, the Blood God Sect's disciples were gathered by the third prince and mobilized the troops of the guards to kill them. Hehe, Your Majesty is very satisfied with the third prince, but the civil and military officials in his vassal are still guilty of being in absent-minded. So he arrested more than 200 local officials and cut their heads! However, I sold my favor to the Minister of Revenue for the third prince, and he would choose people to serve. However, Your Majesty would add the Jinyiwei's vassal to the third prince and set up six generals."
He smiled and looked at the excited subordinate officials, gently flexing the table, and smiled: "Everyone understands it? Six generals, how many senior generals are there? I, Lu Feng, have been the Grand Governor for so long. Hehe, to be honest, I haven't been sitting in the lobby of the Governor's Office a few times, and I feel a little sorry for you. So, this time, everyone has relatives in the Jinyiwei, and the names of them are reported, so I will let them go to the third prince's vassal state to have fun."
He laughed and said, "In the capital, although our Jinyiwei has a lot of high-ranking officials and many people cannot afford to offend them. But when you go to the local area, even the prince has to give the Jinyiwei a little face. Ah! This is my intention to give you, don't refuse, don't refuse... Especially in the current establishment of our Jinyiwei, there are not many senior officials. This time, there are so many ward stations. Hehe, we must promote some capable young people."
The officials of the Governor's Office came up with a bunch of flatteries. Since the Jinyiwei searched the vassals of Zhu Yu and Zhu Ren and killed a group of officials and people, they knew that the two vassals would be a huge piece of fat. But they didn't expect that Lu Feng would share this piece of fat to himself! As expected, even if he was an official, he had to meet a good boss, and the opportunities for promotion and wealth would be endless. They all smiled happily, as if big pieces of gold and silver had been placed in front of him.
He coughed softly again, and Lu Feng knocked on the table heavily. He thought that the officials were not shutting up fast enough. The true energy in his body suddenly released, and a wave of heat rushed towards him. The temperature in the entire lobby immediately soared, scaring the officials to scream and immediately shut their mouths. Dugu Tian was also shocked and shook his whole body. He felt that the moment when the true energy in Lu Feng's body was released, Lu Feng was like a ball of most pure fire spirit, completely losing his human form. He looked at Lu Feng in horror and kept asking himself: "What kind of martial arts is this? So terrifying?"
After glanced at the subordinates below, Lu Feng said coldly: "What a big deal, you are so excited like this? A few official positions? You must be excited for such a small thing. If I give you greater benefits in the future, wouldn't you be happy on the spot?" A heavy snorted inside his nose, and Lu Fengman said: "You are all high-ranking officials, so you must look like high-ranking officials. How can you be so hilarious?"
Seeing that those officials didn't dare to speak, Lu Feng continued to say: "Your Majesty has transferred Mu Ying to lead a 50,000 army to support Huaneng. It is estimated that within ten months, you can break through the royal city of Yuan Meng in the southern border and then go straight to the Baiyue land... Well, Your Majesty has recently mobilized troops and is going to use troops to the Mongolian Tartars again. This time the army is even bigger, but all the generals have important things to do, either in the south, in the northeast, or in the west to block the Yuan Meng Tartars. Therefore, Your Majesty specially transferred General Lihu back to Beijing, preparing to use the break camp as the main force and attack Yuan Meng in the north."
Seeing the solemn appearance of the Governor's Office, Lu Feng smiled: "Li Hu's army is only half a month away from Yingtian Mansion. In the past few days, you must prepare all the affairs. The camp outside the city, the mobilization of troops, horses, food and grass, are all issued by our Governor's Office. You are also veterans in the officialdom. Don't make a mistake at this moment and make Your Majesty unhappy. Now Chi Meng'er is being punished, and Yuan Meng's momentum is very weak. Your Majesty wants to take this opportunity to kill all the Yuan Meng's remnants. You must work hard."
Lu Feng glanced at Dugu Tian and suddenly showed a strange smile: "General Dugu, Your Majesty is in charge of the army, this is a good opportunity to make achievements. The Second Highness said that you have the talent of a general. You have been wronged in the capital for so long, and you have only 500 soldiers and horses under your jurisdiction. I guess you cannot show your talents. So this time, I am going to ask Your Majesty to ask you to break the camp, listen to Li Hu, and command the two guards with 10,000 soldiers and horses, okay?"
Dugu Tian was ecstatic and jumped up and said loudly: "My subordinates receive the order. Messenger will work hard to kill the enemy and serve the court."
Lu Feng looked at Dugu Tian for a long time without a smile, then nodded and said, "Forget it, as long as you don't hold a grudge in your heart. Hehe, look, as long as you go to the city to patrol in the middle of the night, I'm afraid you've hated me to the core. Alas, how did you know that I am actually a generous person, so how could I be jealous of such a talent like you? It's all you're too careful. Remember, if you go to the army, you must work hard to kill the enemy, but don't let me down."
He smiled a few times, narrowed his eyes and said, "If you make great contributions, I will definitely ask Your Majesty to ask for you. As long as you can prove your strength, it will not be difficult to let you be the general of a town. However, if you lose your troops and generals on the grassland and lose the prestige of the Ming Dynasty, don't blame me for being ruthless."
Dugu Tian was unsuspectingly deceitful and agreed happily. For a moment, a very strange feeling surged in his heart. He was a little grateful to Lu Feng. He was shocked and thought: "Murong Tian is so cheap? Why am I grateful to him? Why am I grateful to him? Isn't my experience in Yingtian Mansion arranged by him? Why am I grateful to him?... Lu Feng's skills are so clever! It was obvious that he deliberately planned to me, but I also made me grateful, admire, admire!"
He suddenly realized that Lu Feng was deliberately selling well. Looking at the appearance of the officials of the Governor's Office, Lu Feng gave himself a great opportunity to make contributions in front of these officials. If he made a little mistake, he would be the officials of the Governor's Office immediately took the blame and never had a chance to turn things around in his life. Could he change his face again? Even if he had that ability, he would not have that shame.
At that moment, Lu Feng explained more than a dozen important military affairs, which Zhu Di had discussed in the court. The officials of the Ministry of War made a decision and handed over to the Governor's Office to issue orders. These things were just to give orders and convey the military orders, which had nothing to do with Lu Feng. To be honest, Lu Feng was also unhappy in handling military affairs because he was not good at it at all.
After a long time of busyness, he signed dozens of official documents and issued more than a dozen command arrows, Lu Feng stretched and said lazily: "General Dugu, you have been acting at night recently, so I must be tired of it. Today, I will specifically recommend you, "Well, there is still a commander in the East Gate Camp, so you can make up for that shortage! It will save your highness from writing to His Majesty, saying that I, Lu Feng, don't use people."
He showed a smiley expression again, and said in a dark voice: "But then, I believe you will not take the position of the commander of the East Gate Camp when you return to the credit. General Dugu, you have to work hard! Hehe, hehe, hehe!" Lu Feng let out a series of sharp laughter, his sleeves shook, and he was too lazy to look at the officials of the Governor's Office, and walked out with Shui Yuanzi. The officials of the Governor's Office quickly stood up respectfully, saluted at the same time, and sent Lu Feng out of the mansion.
Dugu Tian instinctively felt a conspiracy aura, but he couldn't find out where Lu Feng buried the trap to deal with him. After thinking for a long time, he thought: "What if you don't care about you? As long as I make great contributions on the grassland, I'm afraid that you Lu Feng will do something? After leaving this Governor's Mansion early, I will no longer be controlled by your Lu Feng, and I'm afraid that you will do something?"
The officials from the Governor's Office had already surrounded him and saluted Dugu Tian, congratulating him on his respect for Lu Feng, and were about to be promoted and made a fortune. Dugu Tian knew that these officials could not afford to offend them, so he smiled humbly, bowed and returned the salute, and sighed in his heart: "It's indeed a favor in the world. Lu Feng is a little nicer to me, so these officials climbed up along the pole. But he didn't know that yesterday, these officials were still as if they saw me ghosts."
Lu Feng stood on the playground in front of the lobby, shouting Zhou Chu and people to lead his mount over. Hearing the pleasing sound in the lobby, Lu Feng spitted heavily on the ground and said coldly: "A bunch of fools! Humph, Murong Tian, will you let you stand out as an official? Humphph, don't think about it, breaking the camp is an elite trained by the kitten after a long time... Hey, although his character is a little worse, those guys are extremely powerful in fighting. Will I hand over the two guards to you?"
Shui Yuanzi tilted his head, looked at an ant that had just emerged from the shell on the ground and crawled over, and asked, "Ah? I thought you would break the camp for him with two guards. Then what kind of soldiers are you going to use for him? You always have to give him ten thousand soldiers?"
Lu Feng looked at Shui Yuanzi in a sinister manner and said in a dark voice: "The kitten captured 50,000 yuan of Mongolian Tatars from southern Xinjiang. Your Majesty has issued an order to castrate all 30,000 of them and use them as servants and civilians. Hehe, the one I gave him Murong Tian was 10,000 eunuchs, and he was a eunuch who was forty years old. I see how he used a group of father-in-law to fight!" He turned over and rushed out of the governor's office, sneering and said: "A group of eunuchs who can't take big steps and run. I see if he can win the battle with them... However, this official is very fair in doing things. Weapons, armor, and food. I definitely don't lack him. Hahahahahahahahaha!"
Shui Yuanzi rolled her eyes and muttered in a low voice: "My God, this kid is getting more and more sinister! Hey, but grandpa, I like this kid! Grandpa Shui is so simple and honest, so I often lose money by eating people. Following this little bastard, at least I won't suffer any losses, right?"
He also jumped onto the horse's back, flipped over and kicked the horse's ass. The horse neighed and ran out like a flying. Lu An and Lin Shi quickly turned over and followed with a large number of Jinyiwei. As for Zhou Chu, he still had to stay in the Governor's Office to register the list of relatives of those officials, right?
Lu Feng rode his horse and rushed towards the palace. He thought to himself: "It's been four months since I don't know what the Fusang beauties trained by the Fairy of the Court. If they are proficient in the bed and master the vicious sucking techniques, well, I'll send him ten to the Second Prince, and I have to suck him dry... Well, for other ministers, how many should I put in each mansion? Let His Majesty reward him three or five in the mansion in the name of reward. Who would have suspected that these delicate girls are my spies of the Jinyiwei?"
"Well, this morning court seems to be lively and interesting again. His Majesty said he wanted to move the capital last month, but he was criticized by those great scholars. I'm afraid he wanted to kill someone long ago? Well, don't make a fuss about this matter today. From morning until evening, aren't they tired of Xie Jin and his old scholars in their seventies and eighties?"
Chapter completed!
