The person who rushed into the camp was none other than Li Benshen, who was transferred by Wu Sangui, this person was very capable, but he died of illness on the way to Shaanxi in history, which can be regarded as an unsuccessful success.

In terms of qualifications, in Wu Sangui's army, Li Benshen is definitely one of the best, he is Gao Jie's nephew, who is Gao Jie? That's the person who cuckolded Li Zicheng, who originally raised troops with Li Zicheng as a neighbor of the villagers, and later hooked up with Li Zicheng's wife in the army, and then eloped to join the official army. Gao Jie was later named Xingpingbo and became one of the warlords of the four towns in Jiangbei.

Li Benshen took refuge in the Qing army and was promoted to the position of governor of Guizhou, the first time Wu Sangui raised his army, even the other two people who were called the three feudal domains by later generations were still indifferent, Li Benshen immediately followed the opposite, his friendship with Wu Sangui can be called an old brother, so he broke into Wu Sangui's camp with a knife, Wu Sangui was not angry at all.

However, Li Benshen's face was already full of anger: "Lord Wang, how long do you plan to do this?" ”

Wu Sangui was a little ashamed: "Jida, don't I also rest for two days, I've been a little tired from the soldiers and horses in the brigade over the years." ”

"Lord Wang, Wang Pingfan has already been killed, if you continue like this, I will be killed in the future, and you will also be kept in the dark."

Wu Sangui stood up barefoot suddenly: "What did you say?" Who was killed? ”

"Your righteous son, Wang Pingfan! General Wang Pingfan! In Shaanxi, he was cut off by a knife, and his head was still hanging on the city gate! ”

Wu Sangui was a little angry: "Who, who dares to kill my righteous son?" I, I'm going to avenge him! ”

Li Benshen sighed: "Lord Wang, can't you see the current situation, Xia Guoxiang and they want to establish their own team, keep you in the dark, and put our old brothers in the air, Wu Shifan is your grandson, even if he is wise and martial, how can he beat Xia Guoxiang and them?" ”

Wu Sangui was stunned for a moment, after all, he was a veteran of the battlefield and the temple: "They dare to do this, why didn't you say it earlier!" ”

"Lord Wang, you were in full swing at the beginning, these things were trivial, I don't want to talk bad about people behind my back, but now it seems that they want to set you up, look at what you've done recently, they dare to hide such a big thing as Wang Pingfan's death in battle, I'm afraid that you will really be hollowed out in the future."

Wu Sangui slammed the table: "Call Xia Guoxiang and Hu Guozhu to me!" ”

Xia Guoxiang and Hu Guozhu don't necessarily have any thoughts of self-reliance, but now they finally enjoy the fun of power, like birds that have been released out of their cages, just caring about flying freely, forgetting the feeling of the cage for a while.

Li Benshen was not very angry, but two days ago the news came that Wang Pingfan was killed, until today he saw that Wu Sangui had not moved, and couldn't help but rush into the camp, Xia Guoxiang and Hu Guozhu even had to hide such a big thing, what did they want to do?

Soon Xia Guoxiang and Hu Guozhu rushed to the camp: "See my father!" ”

"Get on your knees!"

The two of them didn't know what was going on, so they quickly knelt on the ground: "Father, what's wrong?"

"You two bastards, you want to get rid of me, don't you? Let me ask you, why didn't you tell me the news of Wang Pingfan's death in battle! ”

Xia Guoxiang was stunned for a moment: "I saw that my father was unwell in the past two days, and we couldn't reach the affairs of Shaanxi, so I didn't tell my father about it, so as not to make my father anxious." ”

"Wang Pingfan, that's my righteous son, it's not good, it's closer than the relationship between you and me, you dare to hide this kind of news, what do you want to do? Are you planning to come to a military admonishment in two days, and directly let the army surname your Xia and Hu! ”

The sweat on Xia Guoxiang's face came out, he knew why Wu Sangui was so angry, the two of them made the most undesirable mistake because of a moment of negligence, which made Wu Sangui have bad thoughts, if this matter is not handled well, the days when the two of them are like fish in water in the future will be gone forever.

Thinking of this, Xia Guolian kowtowed: "Father Wang Mingjian, Wang Pingfan is your righteous son, and also our brother, he died, we are also very sad, but now we are in a good situation in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, just wait for Tuluo Qilu, approaching the Beijing Division, if the news of Wang Pingfan's death is now transmitted to the army, many brothers in the army have to take revenge, let's go to Shaanxi now, we have to give up Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Lianghu, the gains outweigh the losses, so the sons have to hide the news, the sons are by no means coveting the power of their fathers, Shi Fan is our nephew, just like a parent, how can we do such a rebellious thing as an uncle! ”

He said this string, Wu Sangui's anger has also disappeared a lot, what he said is indeed like this in the end, to say that Wu Sangui still wanted to regain Sichuan occupied by the Ming Dynasty before, but now there is no such thought at all, those places in Sichuan and Shaanxi are not only mountains but soil, how can they compare to Jiangsu and Zhejiang, which is a paradise on earth.

But he still had a cold face: "Then tell me how Shifan is doing recently." ”

"Recently, we are busy pacifying these rebels in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, these rebels don't know what to do, and they are willing to give in under the enslavement of the Manchu Dynasty. His Royal Highness the Prince has recently come forward to persuade seven or eight merchants in Jiangnan, not for me to praise him, this kind of thing must not be done by ordinary people, His Royal Highness the Prince still has the ability. ”

Xia Guoxiang also felt a little exhausted, half of these credits were taken out by him and put on Wu Shifan's body, Wu Sangui is old after all, and his nerves are too fragile now, once he feels that Wu Shifan has signs of being set aside, he will immediately take away the power of Xia Guoxiang, and Wu Sangui's army will not know what will happen to him at that time.

Li Benshen, who had not spoken, spoke: "I can't see it, I have already sent someone to ask those merchants, they were threatened by General Hu, so they had to agree to His Royal Highness's conditions, as soon as the two of you sing and harmonize, you will keep the prince in the dark!" ”

Wu Sangui glanced at Xia Guoxiang coldly: "Is that so?" ”

Xia Guoxiang hurriedly followed up and kowtowed: "His Royal Highness the Prince of the World is in his teens, if there is no us secretly protecting in the back, I don't know what it will be like to be bullied by those businessmen, and if you want to train people, you have to come step by step, even if His Royal Highness the Prince is heroic, it is impossible to be omnipotent all at once!" ”
