Chapter 693: The lobbyist of the British Mansion

has been friends with Zhang Yue for many years, and occasionally has the opportunity to meet Du Zhen on weekdays, but Fang Ling is still the first time to enter the Du family. If it was the same as before, he would have gone to meet the famous cold-faced bachelor without saying a word, but now he has no interest at all. He is a noble son, but he has few friends and no trusted relatives, and the only confidants who can speak are Sun Han and Zhang Yue. At the moment, Sun Hanren is not in the capital, even if he knows that he shouldn't come, he still has to come to the door.

From childhood to adulthood, except for Sun Han, who grew up and walked around, Zhang Yue was the person who helped him the most, even if it was related to his future at this time, he couldn't stand by and watch.

"Brother Fang? It turned out that you were looking for me, what's the matter? ”

Hearing this call, Fang Ling immediately woke up, and when he saw Zhang Yue crossing the threshold, he almost didn't think about it and greeted him. Looking at the smiling face as before, he stretched out his head to look at the empty courtyard, then gritted his teeth and said, "Yuanjie, I didn't want to look for you, but the matter is really urgent...... Jin Yiwei just got the news that several people from Le'an had entered the capital, and one of them ...... One of them went to the British Mansion! ”

For Fang Ling's original trouble, Zhang Yue has been sweating for him in his heart - since ancient times, being a spy has been a first-class difficulty, let alone a double agent - but after seeing that he was comfortable all the way, after Zhu Gaochi ascended the throne, he even rose to the top, so he was less worried. When he saw someone today, he originally thought that Fang Ling was in some trouble, but when he heard the last sentence, he was stunned for a moment, and it was easy to swallow his saliva.

"How long has this been?"

"An hour has passed, and at least no one has come out until I come here to look for you."

Zhang Yue didn't ask if he was sure of the stupid words, since Fang Ling had been in Jinyiwei for a day or two, this kind of thing would never be wrong, and he must have watched someone find the door. He knows the British public Zhang Fu very well, Zhang Fu is definitely not an ambitious and desperate person, plus he has made up his mind before, and he is not a lobbyist who can say anything. But the problem is that at this time, this kind of deception has been detected by the Jinyi guard, and it will be impossible to argue with light and clever at that time.

Everyone is golden, and the three of them become tigers, in comparison, what the Queen Mother and the Emperor think are secondary!

Seeing that Zhang Yue didn't speak, Fang Ling grabbed the hat on Gao Ji and buckled it on his head, and whispered: "Yuan Festival, your uncle has made the contribution of fixing the country twice in a row, but this time the matter is small and small, and it is big and great!" I'm not the number one person in Jinyiwei, even if I'm the number one person, I don't dare to deceive about it, you have a number in your heart. I can't be away for too long, I've got to leave now, take care! In the future, we may become more and more estranged, but I will always regard you as a confidant in my heart! ”

It wasn't until Fang Ling strode out of the door that Zhang Yuefang reacted, and hurriedly chased after him, but stopped at the door, just squirmed his lips and said thank you softly. Seeing the tall back disappear at the gate of the courtyard, he couldn't help but support the door frame with one hand, and still hold the bamboo curtain with the other hand.

He is lucky that he has not made the wrong friends in this life and this life!

In the study, Xiao Wu was anxious around Du Zhen, and saw that he was still calmly splashing ink on the paper, writing the long scroll, she could only continue to circle around the desk. Finally looking forward to his next meal, she hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "Daddy, everyone said that there was an urgent matter to find your brother-in-law, why didn't you go and see who it was?" ”

"That's looking for your brother-in-law, not me, why should I go beyond the bounds?" Seeing that Xiao Wu disagreed, Du Zhen didn't explain, and it didn't take long for him to hear a noisy sound from outside the door, and when he looked up, he saw that it was Zhang Yue coming back, Xiao Wu was nervously pestering him to ask questions, he couldn't help but smile and said, "Xiao Wu, you take a break, don't worry about it." This is Kyori, no one has to get your famous brother-in-law! ”

"If you say this again, sir, I'll find a crack in the ground to get into! It's not a big deal, it's just someone else who has planned to tell me. It's not too early, I should go back, and I'll ask you when you have time. ”

At this time, Zhang Yue had been relieved from the initial panic. Let's not say that Zhang Fu is not a fool, so he doesn't need to come to the door to remind him; And it was Fang Ling who came to tell him, if he hurried over, it would undoubtedly make things worse. Seeing that Du Zhen nodded slightly and didn't ask anything, he felt that his heart was at ease, so he bowed and went out to say goodbye to Qiu.

"Daddy......"

Du Zhen was stunned for a while, and only then did he come back to his senses when he heard Xiao Wu's voice. Seeing her looking at him with concern, he couldn't help but smile dumbly: "It's okay, it's just that I remembered something that doesn't matter." Don't just worry about your sister and brother-in-law, there are a lot of messages sent from the north of the court, and the festival is estimated to be back soon. Didn't you say you'd surprise him when he came back? Then why don't you hurry up and learn more crafts from your mother, so that you can go back and offer treasures? ”

"Dad, you laugh at me!"

The British Mansion, the martial arts arena.

The midsummer night was already late, and it was almost sunset, and the sky was dark with the dark red of the remnant sun, which was particularly depressing. The moon was already looming in the sky, and four blazing torches were inserted in the four corners of the arena, adding a layer of red and bright color to the place. The people in the field were playing with a snow-bright steel knife unhurriedly, and suddenly, the slow knife shadow flashed, and in an instant, it turned into a cloud of silver light, and from a distance, there was no one to see the shadow of the knife. The person who was silently watching the martial arts arena suddenly burst into a good shout, and then slapped his face a few times.

Suddenly, the shadow of the knife in the field was closed, and the person who danced the knife carried the knife in his back hand and strode off the field. With his empty left hand, he took the soft towel handed by the little maid and wiped the sweat on his face and neck, and he sighed casually: "The years are not forgiving, I am really old." I think that if I really practiced at the beginning, it would be impossible to splash water, but now it is just a spare shelf. ”

"Why should the British public be presumptuous? Who doesn't know that although you are the eldest son of the King of Hejian, this credit is fought on the battlefield with a knife and a gun? Besides, the battlefield is changing rapidly, and fighting courage is important, but fighting strategy is even more important. There are very few brave and resourceful generals like you since ancient times, and we are fortunate to have you! ”

Zhang Fu listened to a lot of flattery, and when he heard the other party praise his strategy, he couldn't help but glance at him in surprise, and then said lightly: "The first emperor has just passed away, and the emperor has just ascended the throne, and the king of Han sent you all the way from Shandong just to say this to me?" ”

"Of course not."

Mei Qing had expected that the British Duke would not be so easy, and at this time, in the face of Zhang Fu's indifferent attitude, he was not discouraged at all, but took two steps forward and said with a smile: "My family Chitose said that Emperor Taizong rose up that day and finally won the world, one is the strategy of Lai Rongguo, and the other is to rely on the collective wisdom of the generals and subordinates. Such as Zhang Wu Chen Jue and so on, in the past, they were all partial colonels, and they were not known for their courage and wisdom, once the wind and clouds meet, they will stand out and be on par with the founding generals of Taizu, this is an opportunity! The British duke is now a high-ranking official, but how much power can he have? My family Chitose will not give those flashy names, if the British Duke can help, then my Chitose family will only need Nanjing, this North Zhili and even Xuanfu Shanxi and Henan, all of which will be sent to the British Princess! ”

Rao is Zhang Fu knew that King Han would inevitably promise a heart-warming return, but at this time, he couldn't help but be shocked when he heard this, and even sneered: "King Han thinks I'm a three-year-old child? If he did this thing of splitting the soil and sealing the territory, would he still have the face to enter the temple in the future? Besides, you can run to me quietly, mostly thanks to the power of King Zhao, right? King Zhao has been running Beijing for many years, and since he conspired with King Han, most of them want to divide the north and the south, so what am I when the time comes? ”

Seeing that Zhang Fu did not refuse completely with righteousness, Mei Qing was immediately overjoyed, and hurriedly refreshed his spirits, and diligently followed Zhang Fu, who turned around and walked towards the weapon rack, because of a smile: "The British Duke is the pillar of the country, and the King of Han is full of admiration every time he mentions it, not to mention that when he fought fiercely with the Southern Army in the past, he knew that the world can be called a brave man like him, only the British Duke!" As for King Zhao...... If you want anything in this world, you have to have the talent to match it, do you say yes or no? ”

"So, is the King of Han planning to treat the story of King Zhao Runing?"

"The English Princess!"

When Zhu Di raised his army to fight against the enemy, Zhang Fu was only in his early twenties, and he experienced the joy of a great victory, the horror of a great defeat, the grief of his father's death on the battlefield, and the joy of entering Nanjing with his head held high...... It's just that in his mind, a big reason why Zhu Di was able to succeed in one fell swoop was not because of which famous general under his command, but because Zhu Di dared to rely on Emperor Jianwen's edict to take out his life to cut off the queen at every critical moment, betting that no one dared to kill those generals of the Southern Army. Taking the world is not like dealing with him at that time, there is no person like Daoyan monk Yao Guangxiao, it is absolutely impossible to shake the world.

Therefore, looking carefully at Mei Qing's confident smiling face, he gradually revealed a meaningful smile. Suddenly, his right hand jerked, and a sword light like a sword shot straight towards the great head, and finally landed on the neck. Because the sword light was too fast, a strand of Mei Qing's hair fell to the ground, and the smiling face froze there all of a sudden.

"Is the English Duke going to test my guts? Please forgive me for telling the truth, to be able to come here, I have already put life and death out of the way, and at this time, His Royal Highness the King of Han has already raised troops, you must not mistake yourself! ”

At this moment, Zhang Fu's hands did not tremble at all, as if Mei Qing was not talking about the rebellion of King Han, but a trivial matter. He moved the long knife steadily, and saw that the blade was tightly attached to Mei Qing's neck, so he said word by word: "You don't have to use these words to intimidate me, I won't kill you." Before Mei Qing could breathe a sigh of relief, he commanded in a deep voice, "Come on, take him down and tie him up for me!" ”

As soon as the words fell, several big men suddenly rushed out of the corner of the martial arts arena, and then rushed up and pressed Mei Qing to the ground, and tied people up with hemp rope after dividing five by two. Seeing that the guy on the ground was struggling desperately, his eyes kept staring at him, as if he couldn't figure out why he was treated like this, Zhang Fu lowered the knife and said lightly: "Stuff his mouth with hemp walnuts!" Go and tell another person to prepare a horse and take him into the palace with me! ”

Hearing the last two words, Mei Qing only felt as if his head had been struck by a thunderbolt, and it was a complete mess. Before he came, he swore to Zhu Gaoxu, the king of Han, that until he entered the British Mansion and talked eloquently in front of Zhang Fu, he always felt that he could impress the other party, how could he have thought that Zhang Fu made such a decision without even thinking about it. While he still had the ability to speak, he could only pull his throat for the last effort.

"Think again! Now that you are the prince of the country and the third prince of the official, you are already unsealable, and you will definitely be put on hold in the future! Even if you don't think about yourself, you have to think about your sons! It's not that I'm alarmist, as long as they get a word, it will be difficult for them to make progress in the future, even Zhang Yue is the same! Those old people in the court will inevitably still block his future, and only the king of Han has the courage......"

Mei Qing didn't finish his words after all, and after Zhang Fu's eyes, a house slave smashed a knife on the back of his neck with one hand, knocking the person unconscious. Seeing that these house slaves of his own quickly blocked Mei Qing's mouth, dragging people down like a dead dog, Zhang Fu put the knife back on the weapon rack, and then looked at Peng Shisan, who appeared at some point.

"Thirteen, change your clothes and accompany me into the palace."

Peng Shisan didn't say anything, and bowed silently and quietly retreated. After about a meal, the east corner door of the British Mansion opened, and suddenly more than a dozen people poured out of it, each holding a horse in their hands. Peng Shisan, who is the leader, is still dressed plainly because of his official status, but the rest of the people are dressed in one color, which is even more gloomy in the dim night. After a while, Zhang Fufang, who was dressed in sackcloth, came out of it and personally led a yellow horse. In an instant, more than a dozen people got on their horses together, and the figure gradually disappeared in the sound of the horse's hooves.

In front of the Buddhist shrine in the upper room and the back room, Mrs. Wang knelt in front of the jade Guanyin, counting the beads with her fingers and reciting the scriptures. Although she had memorized the words countless times and recited countless times, she was often in a trance and couldn't remember the next sentence. It was easy to read it thirty times, and when she saw Biluo standing there with Tianci in one hand and Zhang Tian in the other, and Xiyu next to her was also standing with concern on her face, she moved her stiff knees and stood up, and said calmly: "It's not early, you send the mothers to let the children go to sleep." Everything has a master, and the sky can't fall. ”

Seeing that the two of them were relieved, she couldn't help but clench the string of beads in her hand again. It's not that she's afraid that her family will suffer any danger, but she has seen the terrible situation with her own eyes at that time, and now she is going to repeat the mistake of thousands of miles of red land?
