The voice outside the warm pavilion sounded: "Are you in this house?" the footsteps were close, and Liu Jinwu lifted the curtain and walked in,

Qi Jiguang hurriedly got up and saluted: "Manager Liu," Liu Jinwu pointed and smiled: "Lord Qi, I knew that you had to come soon, and you deliberately got up early, or let you give Chao in the head, what, don't you give up on the matter of transfer?"

Chang Sihao asked, "What transfer,"

Qi Jiguang was a little embarrassed, Liu Jinwu approached with a smile, swept his eyes slightly to the table, and said: "One hundred and two Qin Guan, it's very good, Lord Qi, if you want to say that your blood this time is not small, but it also depends on the object, this one hundred and two Qin Guan may be enough for others, and when it comes to Chitose, it has to be '100,000 armor' to see it," Seeing that Qi Jiguang's face was uncertain, he smiled comfortingly, and leaned closer:" Adults don't have to be angry, I'm just joking, it's not easy for you to conquer and kill in the south, and now you can't enjoy the glory of sweeping away the widows, but you have to fold it in the hands of the villain, even if you admit it, I am unwilling to do it for you,"

Qi Jiguang smiled bitterly: "Peace is a blessing, and retiring after success is also a beautiful thing,"

Liu Jinwu laughed: "The sword buries the wrongs, the loyal soul surrounds the white clouds, can you remember these two poems of Hu Shaobao?"

Qi Jiguang's face changed abruptly, and he hung his head silently,

Liu Jinwu said: "If the adults blindly retreat, they can only end up in the same fate, it is better to join hands with Chitose and seek it a great fortune,"

Chang Sihao heard him talk about "great wealth", his heart moved, and asked: "Lord Qi, you said halfway just now, what is the details of Wu Shilai?"

Liu Jinwu replied with a smile: "Do you need to say it, Wu Shilai is Xu Jie's protégé, whether it is the impeachment of Yan Song or the squeeze of Gao Gong, he is always a banner, where Xu Jie's blow goes, he will float in whichever way, and now the flag horn is drawn on the face of Lord Qi, it will be unlucky," immediately told Chang Sihao what happened,

It turned out that after Wu Shilai wrote the book, the ministry passed and handed it over to the emperor, Longqing issued an order to transfer Qi Jiguang to Beijing as the deputy general of the Shenji Battalion, but after Qi Jiguang arrived in Beijing, he found that something was wrong everywhere, and he got a clue to check, and he was naturally very indignant about Wu Shilai, and then found out that there was Xu Jie's command behind this person, and then he panicked, he knew that the military generals could not fight the civil officials, and even the characters like Yan Song were planted in the hands of Xu Jie, not to mention himself, so he gave gifts everywhere, paid officials, and hoped that someone could make the best efforts to transfer himself out of the capital, but this way, the money spent a lot, but it had no effect, and yesterday in the Long Live Mountain saw Chang Sihao and the emperor so cordial, is obviously a person who speaks with weight, so he went to visit Liu Jinwu in the evening, inquired about the situation with him, and learned that Chang Sihao was born in the military, and found out that he and Xu Jie's incompatible tone, and today I came to the house to give gifts,

Chang Sihao felt strange after hearing this, and asked, "Why does Xu Ge Lao have to get along with Lord Qi?"

Liu Jinwu said: " Speaking of this root is deep, Qi Daren's old boss Hu Zongxian was the official residence of the military department of the squire, because of the meritorious service, to the military department Shangshu plus the prince Shaobao, known as Hu Shaobao, he because of his deep friendship with Yan Song's son Zhao Wenhua, five years ago was impeached by Lu Fengyi in the matter, falsely accused of Yan Song's henchmen, was demoted and returned to his hometown, two years later, he was dug out of the handle and put in prison, and finally committed suicide in prison, all of this is of course Xu Ge Lao's handwriting, with his caution, as long as it is an official related to Yan Song, he will definitely get rid of Fang An, originally Lord Qi is Hu Zongxian's descendant, Hu was removed, Xu Ge Lao should have wanted to move him a long time ago, but he was afraid of the Japanese Gang rebellion, and there was Lord Qi, It's better than bothering himself, and now that the south has been completely calm, he should naturally settle old accounts,"

Chang Sihao looked at Qi Jiguang, only to see that although he was listening quietly, the muscles in his cheeks were beating non-stop.

Liu Jinwu said: "Lord Qi has outstanding military achievements, but his official position is low, unlike Hu Zongxian, who is an important minister of the military department, according to Xu Ge Lao is now in full swing, there is no need to get along with him, yesterday I chatted with Lord Qi like this, I realized that there is another reason in it, but he didn't realize it,"

Qi Jiguang was stunned: "What I didn't realize was what,"

Liu Jinwu said with a smile: "Xu Jie is a native of Songjiang Huating, he is an official in the court, the third son Xu Ying follows him, and the eldest son Xu Fan and the second son Xu Kun are at home, Huating is located on the shore of Hangzhou Bay, the south wing of the Yangtze River Delta, which belongs to the coastal rush, his two sons are in trouble, and the notoriety spreads all over the world.

Qi Jiguang's eyes lit up: "Smuggling,"

"That's right," Liu Jinwu said with a smile: "Compared with the little money on the land, the smuggling is much richer, and smuggling will inevitably collude with the Japanese bandits, Lord Qi, where is the nest of Wang Zhi, the leader of the big Japanese bandits, you won't forget it,"

Wang Zhi's lair is located in Songjiang Huating, how could Qi Jiguang not know that this is Xu Jie's hometown, obviously his words revealed the subtle connection between the two,

Chang Sihao said: "They dare to be traitors,"

Qi Jiguang said: "Chitose is in the north, may not know the situation in the south, among the southern pirates, the Japanese are actually only a minority, most of them are traitors, their composition is extremely complex, in addition to a large part of the coastal fishermen, farmers, there are also some full-time bandits and smuggling squads, these people are dissatisfied with the national policy of banning the sea, in order to seek profiteering to defy the law, colluding with the Japanese to make trouble, because of the familiar terrain, and the language, there are Japanese as backers at sea, and there are landlords and huge wealth in the inland as a cover, such as ringworm and mustard, extremely difficult to deal with,"

Liu Jinwu could hear that he didn't dare to say it too blatantly, and immediately smiled: "Yes, if there are no traitors, just Pingshan and the island, with the talent of Lord Qi, the martial arts have been used for so many years, it is a bit too much to say,"

Qi Jiguang said, "Yes, yes,"

Liu Jinwu's eyes squinted at him: "Actually, to put it bluntly, it is very simple, the Xu family smuggles for money, the robbing of the Japanese is also for the money, the peace of the Japanese is a big deal, but the capital is given by the state, and the fame and fortune earned are all his own, the emperor wants the world to be peaceful, but if the world is really peaceful, let the people below stand up, where does the money come from, how do the officials rise, the more there is a war, the more money is made, the more rampant the Japanese are rampant, the greater the credit for exterminating the Japanese, how did Hu Zongxian's original merit and wealth come from, presumably Lord Qi also knows it very well,"

Hu Zongxian had a deep friendship with some pirate leaders in the process of pacifying the Japanese, and had a conniving performance, obviously although it was a strategy set up for the purpose of trapping, but when the two sides came and went, there were many unclear bribes, which caused a lot of controversy in the court, and he lived a luxurious life, and the money he squandered far exceeded his Fenglu, and everyone knew it, except for corruption and bribery, there was no other possibility, Qi Jiguang was Hu's old subordinate, and he naturally knew it, and he also understood that Liu Jinwu was pointing at himself, and he couldn't argue with it, so he had to laugh awkwardly, although Chang Sihao didn't know about these, but seeing Qi Jiguang's face change, he guessed a rough idea,

Qi Jiguang has been careful when he speaks, and at this moment, seeing him frowning slightly, he was immediately alert, and his face was very unnatural.

Liu Jinwu smiled: " Adults don't have to be like this, there are only three of us in this house, and I'm afraid of letting outsiders listen to it, eating and wearing for thousands of miles as an official, going to sea every day, can you still not get a little salt on your clothes, our own people's affairs, you can get it in your heart, the emperor supports you is really willing to pay money, and you really give the emperor a long face, but everything has to be balanced, your brother is too real, throw the big leopard, you don't lose everything, let everyone else lose their butts, who else can play with you, Xu Ge is not too old, let the family start harder, nothing more than for the future pension consideration, you can be good, directly pinched people's necks, people are not in a hurry with you, ”

Qi Jiguang said: "Manager Liu said very well, I have always only understood as a general, not as an official, and now the emperor is jealous, and the courtiers are excluded, teach me what to do,"

Chang Sihao said: "Lord Qi, you may find tangible evidence of the collusion between Xu Jie's second son and the Japanese Kou,"

Qi Jiguang thought about it for a while, and his face was embarrassed: "It has been delayed for a long time to collect evidence in the south, and there are many troubles, I'm afraid it is not so easy, not to mention that now the Japanese have been ...... peace."

Although this is the truth, Liu Jinwu also heard the meaning of his words, and said with a smile: "Although Xu Fan and Xu Kun are also a pair of straw bales, they are much stronger than the third child of their family, and it is not easy to leave evidence when doing things, we have no hope of investigating these things, but if people don't know, unless they can't do anything, the things in the world can escape from other people's eyes, but they can't escape the surveillance of the East Factory,"

Qi Jiguang sighed wastefully: "Don't count on the things in Guo Dugong's hands,"

Liu Jinwu said with a smile: "If you don't count on it, don't count on it, why should Lord Qi be so decadent, the emperor saw that Wu Shi came to sue for deviation, and did not issue an order to investigate and punish the crime, but transferred you to Beijing, it can be seen that he is only concerned about your military power, and does not have doubts about your personality, so the current situation is not too bad, your military exploits are a knife and a gun, and you really fight hard, what are you afraid of him,"

Chang Sihao saw that his expression was quite excited, and every sentence was deepening, knowing that something must have changed, he stretched out his hand and hugged his shoulder and said: "Jin Wu, I am a small soldier, Lord Qi is an old handsome, you are a soldier, to put it bluntly, we are all holding knives, now is not the era of Yue Shuai, we are the swords and guns of the enemy in Ningzhong, but we must not accept the secret arrows of traitors, Lord Qi's business is your business and mine, if you have any good ideas, you might as well say it directly, and see if you can also use his old Xu Yijun,"

When Qi Jiguang heard this, he felt a great sense of heart-to-heart and lungs, and he also looked forward eagerly,

Liu Jinwu looked at the two of them, raised his hand and pressed it on Chang Sihao's hand on his shoulder, and said with a smile: " I understand your thoughts, I also know what Lord Qi thinks, if I hadn't made up my mind to help Lord Qi, I wouldn't have handed over your bottom to him last night, to be honest, I really don't have any idea now, but I have always seen the situation very accurately, how was Xia Yan at the beginning, what about Yan Song, the waves in the cabinet are too big, there has never been a boat that does not capsize, although we don't have the handle of Xu Ge Lao in our hands now, but as long as the opportunity is right, it is not impossible to lift him, as you said, we hold the knife handle all day long in the water and fire, if we let the pen stick to die, then it's not a shame, ”

Qi Jiguang squeezed his hand fiercely, looked excited, and said, "Good brother, this is really what Lao Ning said about my heart,"

"Lao Ning" is grandma, Qi Jiguang is originally from Shandong, and he came out of his hometown dialect under excitement.

Liu Jinwu smiled evilly: "Ha, Lord Qi, you have been in Beijing these days full of official words, you can choke enough," Qi Jiguang glanced at Chang Sihao, and felt even more embarrassed, Chang Sihao lightly punched him in the chest, and said with a smile: ", each other," Qi Jiguang grinned in shock, trembling and careful for a long time, but he didn't expect a dirty word to shorten the distance between each other, and said with a smile: "To tell the truth, I am used to scolding soldiers on the front line, and I am really not used to it after entering Beijing,"

"There are more scoldings at the bottom, and fewer knives on the battlefield," Chang Sihao said and pulled his hand and grabbed it, and said with a smile: "It's all crawled out of the blood nest, understand, understand,"

The four hands were firmly held in one place, the thick fingers and the tight flesh made Qi Jiguang's heart not crack, the two hugged together and laughed, Liu Jinwu stretched his arms together: "My biggest wish in life is to be able to lead the troops to fight, but unfortunately I don't have this opportunity, but with your two brothers, I feel that the blood in my whole body is hot, Lord Qi, the three of us are of one heart and one mind, if we don't give up, why not learn from the ancients and come out of Taoyuan to tie the knot," Qi Jiguang hesitated happily and looked at Chang Sihao,

Chang Sihao smiled and stuffed the "One Hundred and Two Qin Pass" back into his arms, and said: "One hundred and two Qin Guan is soil after all, how can it be compared to the Ming Qi Tiger, to be able to worship Brother Qi, that is Chang Sihao's blessing,"

Qi Jiguang was overjoyed: "What kind of blessing, Qi is what you can't ask for," walked to the side of the wall and pushed the window to look, and saw that there was a small pond at the twists and turns of the flower path in the garden, and the thin willows around it withered, among which an ancient plum tree explored the pond from afar, the long branches were twisted, and the buds were sparse, very good-looking, so he pointed out: "It's a pity that there are no peach blossoms in midwinter, so how about going to that plum tree,"

When Chang Liu and the others saw this wonderful scene, they all applauded, Liu Jinwu said: "I still have to prepare fragrant wax, I'll call someone," Chang Sihao smiled: "Why bother the big husband," took off a town house sword from the wall, and went out of the warm pavilion first,

The three of them came to the plum tree, Chang Sihao pulled out the sword, straight into the ground, Qi Jiguang smiled heartily, and also pulled out his waist knife and inserted it on the left, Liu Jinwu took down his small sword inlaid with beads and jade, inserted it on the right side, the three of them knelt down together after the sword, looked up at the infinite sky above the plum branch, bowed three times, stood up, looked at each other with their hands and laughed, and warmed up a lot, speaking of brother rankings, Qi Jiguang was naturally above Chang Sihao in age, and couldn't help but feel a little restrained, Liu Jinwu said: " Brother Qi, what we respect you is military merits, not age, which of the old men in the cabinet is not seventy or eighty, they are old, and what have they done," Chang Sihao also nodded in agreement, the two worshiped the eldest brother, Liu Jinwu took advantage of the situation to worship Chang Sihao, and said with a smile: "Our brother only I have no military merits, so naturally I am the third brother," Chang Sihao saw that he insisted on this, so he didn't say much, smiled and stretched out his hand to pull him up,

Qi Jiguang took out two short knives without a stool from his arms and gave them to the two, Chang Sihao took it and took a look, only to see that the length of the knife was only two palms, the ivory handle, the ivory sheath, the handle was embedded with a round edge of the paulownia leaf cherry blossom pattern, the style was similar to the tile, gently pulled out a little, there was immediately a breath of fresh air outward, the blade was cold and sensen with wavy patterns, blurted out: "Good knife," Qi Jiguang smiled: "This kind of knife is called" 'Waki', I paid it in the hands of a Japanese assassin when I was in peace, because I love its fine workmanship, so I have always carried it with me, and today I just gave it to the two brothers, and the right to make a gift of righteousness,"

Liu Jinwu played two tricks, and he liked it very much, and said with a smile: "Thank you for that," he put it in his arms and took it, patted the dust on his knees, and said: "However, Brother Qi, now that the court is still under the control of Xu Jie, it is not appropriate for us to spread the word about righteousness, in front of outsiders, how to call it in ordinary times, so as not to fall into the suspicion of forming a party for personal gain, and let people catch the handle," Qi Jiguang nodded: "It should be so," Liu Jinwu said: " It's still a little difficult for us to move Lao Xu's army now, but if he wants to move our brothers, it's not so easy, I've already thought about it, this duke is too slippery, if you want to move him, you have to start with his son, although it is not easy to obtain evidence for smuggling, but the annexation of land is always hidden, you are more familiar with the south, and there are many old subordinates over there, and the materials in this area must be collected and collected, otherwise there is no basis for empty words, and it will be difficult to speak in the future,"

Qi Jiguang nodded: "Extremely, yes, I'll do it with someone,"

Liu Jinwu smiled and pulled out the small sword to wipe it, and said, "Don't be in a hurry, don't worry, at the moment of happy events, let's watch a good show first,"
