Liu Hong gradually took the sign, and after just a glance, he recognized that it was a genuine Jinyiwei token, and then got up to help Lao Bi.

"Hurry up."

Although he is already a very human minister, a grandfather-level old man kneeling down for him always makes him feel uncomfortable, the evil old society.

"The first time I saw you, countless thoughts flashed in my heart, to be honest, just now I was suspicious, I'm really ashamed, ashamed!"

"Hahaha, the subordinate is in the enemy camp, surrounded by songs, and he is used to pretending to be crazy and stupid on weekdays, and the commander is not strange."

Bi Zigong also hurriedly apologized, when Li Zicheng captured Shanxi, he was only a seven-rank official in Taiyuan Mansion.

Before the city was broken, all the officials of Taiyuan Mansion fled and disappeared, so Li Zicheng asked him to do the position of prefect, but in fact, Lao Bi refused at first.

Eat the king's lu, can't bear the king's worries, and have to work for the thief, but the Ming Dynasty has an iron law, the official has the duty to guard the city, and the fugitive is a capital crime no matter what the reason.

Although Lao Bi didn't want to give Li Zicheng his life, he didn't want to send him to death, so he had to secretly send a letter to Daming while making a false deal with these illiterate bandits, hoping to continue to serve Daming.

Just five months ago, he finally got the approval of Liang Yang, the commander of Jinyiwei, and became the oldest official of Jinyiwei, responsible for collecting intelligence on enemy-occupied areas for the Ming Dynasty.

Liu Honggradually left Beijing, and has been fighting everywhere, even if Jinyiwei has the latest news, he often can't find anyone, listening to Lao Bi's experience, Liu Hongjian is also embarrassed.

"My lord, the old man once said that he would give the commander a big gift, and this big gift is the Datong Mansion in the northeast!"

Lao Bi's eyes were calm, and he said lightly, at his age, he had long lost interest in making contributions, and before Liu Hongjian could express his opinion, Wei Penghongteng on the side stood up.

"Master Bi, is this true?"

Wei Penghong has been confronting Liu Zongmin of Datong Mansion for nearly a year, Datong and Xuanfu have similar forces, and both have been fighting against Manchu and Mongolia all the year round, and their defenses are extremely strong.

Wei Penghong had used various means to lure Liu Zongmin to fight, but they were all recognized by Liu Zongmin, this time Liu Hongjian only brought less than a thousand soldiers, thinking that if he could really bring down Datong Mansion, his own credit must be great.

A soldier who doesn't want to be a general is not a good soldier, and although he is now a general soldier, I heard that the imperial court is now reusing military generals, and maybe he can be a baron as a whole.

"Hehe, the old man is so old, how can he lie!" Lao Bi stroked his gray beard.

"Don't sell it, I'm really waiting for the official to ask you to say it! Do you still want the Imperial Chef? Liu Hong gradually saw this old man and pretended to be forced, and pretended to be slightly angry.

Although this old Bi is not very interested in fame and fortune, he is a foodie, and seeing the commander makes the adults hurry up solemnly.

"The old man has a nephew named Bi Yuntao, who has been farming outside Datong Mansion, and was later caught by Liu Zongmin to be a thief, and the old man couldn't bear to write a letter to Liu Zongmin.

The old man didn't have much hope, I only hoped that Liu Zongmin could let my nephew go home in the face of his service for Dashun, who would have thought that this guy would directly give my nephew a position of 100 households.

My nephew has no ability, and he doesn't like killing, so he has been writing to the old man that he wants to go home and farm, but Liu Zongmin saw that my nephew not only has strength, but also literacy, not only is he not allowed, a few days ago, he was promoted to a deputy thousand households, specifically for him to guard the city gate! Alas! ”

Speaking of this, Lao Bi sighed.

People don't like to kill, they like the pastoral life under the South Mountain, what a good person, how can you say that you Liu Zongmin are so unkind, isn't this the dream of others in QJ?

"The old man will repair a secret letter to explain the situation here, I believe that the kid must be very happy to learn the news."

Liu Hong was gradually overjoyed, but then felt that something was wrong.

"Lao Bi, there is such a big movement here today, then Liu Zongmin must have also learned that Datong Mansion must be under martial law in the whole city, how can you send this letter in, if it is detected, wouldn't it hurt your nephew?"

"Hahaha, thank you for your concern, this Taiyuan Mansion turned out to be heavily defended, and the old man didn't communicate with Lord Liang anyway, and there will be contact almost every month!"

"Don't pretend, say it!" Liu Hongjian is an anxious child, and he is most unaccustomed to seeing others talking and leaving half of what he says, seeing that Lao Bi squinted his eyes slightly and began to pretend to be thirteen, Liu Hongjian knocked on the table and reminded.

"Don't worry, my lord, the old man and my nephew are in contact with a boy named Yang Tianbao who is responsible for delivering letters, this son is good and extremely clever, and he is very familiar with many city guards in Datong and Taiyuan Mansion."

Although Lao Bi didn't know what it meant to pretend to be forced, he still thought that the commander was really anxious, so he took a sip of wine and said.

It is unknown who Yang Tianbao's parents are, but it is known that this son has been begging for food in Taiyuan Mansion since he was a child, but in these years, everyone is poor and jingling, and Xiao Tianbao is always wandering for a day and still hungry and half dead.

Lao Bi saw that he was pitiful, and sometimes bought him a cake to eat, but later heard that he was accepted by an old boy who was juggling, and he disappeared.

It wasn't until Yang Tianbao suddenly came to Taiyuan Mansion the year before last that Lao Bi learned that his master's family was killed by a strong man, and only he escaped from the clutches with his good skills.

This person has a perverse temperament, and he doesn't want to be a slave to those officials, but he is idle and has no food, so he does help, and the so-called helper is to run an errand for others, send a letter or something.

The main customers are all big soldiers stationed in Taiyuan and near Datong Mansion, and Yang Tianbao has not forgotten Lao Bi who once helped him, and he will send a jar of wine to Lao Bi if he has nothing to do.

Speaking of this, Lao Bi was also pleased.

"Alas, this official doesn't like to fight, kill and kill, but the sky doesn't follow people's wishes, I'd rather be a peaceful dog than a troubled world!"

Liu Hong paused and continued.

"Now is the time to employ people, I don't know what is the heart of this called Yang Tianbao?" Liu Hong's gradual employment of people is the most focused, and those who are not right-hearted, even if you have great talents, you must be crooked.

"Alas, this son has been looked down upon since he was a child, and even his juggler master beats and scolds him at every turn in order to train him to make money, and even he is quite suspicious, except for the old man, who doesn't trust anyone.

Actually, he still has a good heart, but he ......"

Hearing this, Liu Hong gradually had a general impression of this Yang Tianbao in his heart, he was a poor child who was abducted and deceived by the pit, and he was still an orphan, isn't this his previous life?

"Well, this official understands, so let's write a letter, the army is tired for a day, and needs to rest, since it is a surprise attack, the day will be set for tomorrow night!

Lord Wei, the big battle is imminent, except for the necessary soldiers on duty, go back and let the soldiers rest! ”

"Yes, sir!"

"No!"
