After separating from the Portuguese, Bai Lian asked Xia Nan: "Why did you help the rebels persuade Sun Yuanhua to surrender?" ”

Looking around in the summer, there was no one else in the courtyard, and he said in a low voice, "Master, Sun Yuanhua is not a bad official, he is still very honest compared to other officials in Shandong, and he only thinks about training the new army to fight Tartars in Liaodong, such an official, if he dies at the hands of the rebels, it will be a pity." Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info I'm delaying the army, trying to save his life. ”

When Bai Lian was on the roof last night, his belief had already been shaken, and after witnessing the atrocities of the rebels, he had a lot less of the idea of using the rebels to help the White Lotus Sect in trouble, and he was no longer as firm as he was at the beginning. ”

"Fairy Gu, you didn't close your eyes all night last night, and you fought fiercely with the rebels, now we are safe for the time being, you take the white girl to rest first, and I will talk to Sun Yuanhua."

Bai Lian nodded: "It's okay." So he and Bai Xiaoxian found a clean room and went in to rest.

In the flower hall of the governor's yamen, Sun Yuanhua sat opposite Xia Nan again. Last time the two sat here, Sun Yuanhua was the governor of Denglai, who held great power, and Xia Nan was a businessman who sought his refuge, and this time he sat here, Sun Yuanhua became a prisoner, and Xia Nan was nominally a lobbyist for the rebels.

Sun Yuanhua smiled bitterly and said, "Brother Xia, see you today, things are people, it's like a different world!" ”

Xia Nan was also a little embarrassed, Dengzhou City was broken and searched for Sun Yuanhua three times before, it can only be said that it is destined to have this catastrophe.

"Why did Lord Sun say this, although you have suffered a calamity now, before the imperial court has not relieved you of your duties, you are still the governor of Denglai."

Sun Yuanhua shook his head and said: "Because of my negligence, the rebels captured Dengzhou City, and my life is not my own, so what kind of governor can I talk about." But you, how could you get mixed up with the rebels, could it be that you really be a lobbyist for the rebels? ”

"That's a long story." Xia Nan dug coal in Huang County, and was unable to go to sea to return to Qiongzhou due to the closure of Dengzhou, and then met the two Bailian, in order to protect themselves, and then followed them into the rebel camp, and then was sent to Dengzhou to contact Geng Zhongming. It was all true, but he concealed his own plans, and then said that the rebels were coerced into sending the letter.

This explanation is reasonable, and Sun Yuanhua is convinced: "So, you are forced to serve the rebels in order to protect yourself?" Also joined the White Lotus Sect? ”

Xia Nan looked around at no one and whispered: "I was dealing with the people of the White Lotus Sect, and I didn't join the sect, just to save my life. Sending letters and contacts for the rebels is also a last resort, and it is also false to persuade you to give in to the rebels now. I know that Master Sun has integrity, and you will never stoop to the thief, saying that you are here to persuade you, it is also a delaying tactic, so as not to make Li Jiucheng angry and angry and poison the adult. ”

Sun Yuanhua nodded: "From the fact that you are willing to sell the cannon to the imperial court, I know that you have a loyal heart and will never be willing to degenerate and run for the rebels." As for the official ......" he suddenly thought that his governor couldn't do it ironclad, so he changed his words, "As for the old man, the big mistake has been made, since he can't kill himself, just wait for the court to fall, I just hope that Kong Youde will be in the old relationship and can hand me over to the court, and the old man would rather be stabbed at the mouth of the vegetable market than die at the hands of the rebels." ”

Xia Nan knew that his wish would be fulfilled, and as long as nothing went wrong, he would soon be handed over by Kong Youde to the imperial court, and he would be executed with Zhang Tao after being tortured in the prison of the Suppression Division. But with your own variable, anything is possible.

It would be a pity to let Sun Yuanhua die like the original history, and when the time comes, whether he is willing or forcibly taken away, in short, he has to find a way to get him to Lingao, where can he find such a talent who understands Western technology, has experience in governance, and can also train the army?

However, Xia Nan knew that it was not convenient to reveal his details at this time, and it was not easy to persuade him to give up his allegiance to the imperial court and change the court, so he just followed his words and dealt with a few words, just said a few words such as "Lord Sun does not have to be pessimistic, he should stay this useful body and serve the imperial court", "Dongyu is not destroyed, and after Denglai recovers, he still needs to preside over the overall situation", alleviating his desire to die.

After saying goodbye to Sun Yuanhua, Xia Nangang wanted to find a place to sleep, and Bai Xiaoxian came. She said worriedly: "Tiannan, Wang Bao is here!" ”

Wang Bao? The action is very fast, it must have been seen that the rebels occupied Dengzhou City, unwilling to be taken advantage of by the White Lotus, and wanted to fish in troubled waters, the rebels entered the city with their front feet, and he came on his heels.

"Let's go, let's meet the royal chief."

When I arrived at Bai Lian's room, the door was wide open, and Bai Lian was sitting on a chair in the middle, and next to him sat a man in a Taoist robe, who was Wang Bao.

Xia Nan walked in with a smile and said hello: "It turned out that the Taoist chief arrived, and he missed the distance." ”

Wang Bao saw Bai Xiaoxian and the little bird following behind Xia Nan like a person, and a feeling of jealousy rose in his heart, both the master and apprentice of the White Lotus were as beautiful as flowers, he was not unintentional about the plot of the master and apprentice eating all, but the White Lotus was the saintess of the main altar, and her martial arts were also higher than him, so she had this heart and no courage. The scene in front of him made him very unhappy, but he didn't show a trace of unhappiness on his face, and said with a smile: "According to the rules of the sect, you have to call me the Dharma Master, don't you say, Holy Maiden?" ”

Xia Nan replied with a smile: "It seems to make sense, but I haven't joined the sect and am not a member of the White Lotus Sect, so I can only call you a leader!" ”

Since Wang Bao joined the White Lotus Sect, relying on some tricks he learned when he walked the rivers and lakes, he collected a large number of believers, amassed a lot of money, and was willing to tie up the people of the main altar, and soon rose to the position of Dharma protector in the inner Dharma Hall. Xia Nan's playful "Tao Chief" made him instantly recall his down-and-out life when he walked the streets and alleys to beg for a living.

He was angry in his heart, this kid surnamed Xia not only ruined his good deeds in Li Zhuang, but also dragged Bai Lian into the rebels to steal his credit, and now he didn't even care about the superficial etiquette, which was really hateful.

But hate to hate, he still had a smile on his face, and there was nothing unusual at all. There's no way, this kid can debunk his "spell" once, he can debunk it a second time, with the protection of the White Lotus, he can't kill him, so he won't bother with him for the time being.

"Oh? The fact that such young talents did not join the Sect is really a great loss to the Sect. Holy Maiden, this is your fault. ”

Bai Lian said lightly: "Tiannan does not enter the sect, I have my own measure, and I don't bother with the protection of the Dharma." ”

"Hahaha......" Wang Bao laughed a few times.

To be continued.
