scourge the qing dynasty

Chapter 129
Fatty Lu, a living cash cow, suddenly came to Nanning, and even went to the Line Mansion to recommend himself, and offered to be the private school teacher of Line Guoan Children Line Qiyu, which naturally caused a sensation in half of Nanning City. Needless to say, He Zhixian's Pidianpidian ran away, even Rong Guoan, who had been ill for many years, struggled to get up from the hospital bed, and personally led the Guangxi generals to clean up Fatty Lu.

In view of Fatty Lu's great reputation, the banquet was of course carried out in an intimate and friendly atmosphere. After drinking for three rounds, the father and son of the Line family and the prefect Han Zhang and others had to inquire in detail about the real reason why Fatty Lu came to Nanning. When Fatty Lu said truthfully that he had resigned from office and was going to join the line's father and son to beg for food, the first reaction of the line's father and son, Han Zhang and others was disbelief, the second was absolutely disbelief, and the third was that Fatty Lu It must be a joke!

After laughing and shaking their heads together, Rong Guoan, who was over sixty years old and already skinny, smiled and said, "Lord Lu, don't be joking. Who are you? A famous and upright official in China, the famous most powerful official in the Qing Dynasty Even if you really have resigned from the official position, there is no need to go to the poor Nanning to beg for food, right? I believe that as long as Mr. Lu says that you want to be an official, the governors all over the world will scramble for three visits to the thatched hut. Master Lu, please come out of the mountain, do you still need to come here?"

"Old General Line, this junior is really not joking." Fatty Lu didn't smile at all, but said seriously: "This time this junior came to Nanning, I really came to beg Old General Line to take him in, so that this junior can have a roof over his head. Therefore, there is a bowl of porridge every day to satisfy hunger and hunger."

Seeing Fatty Lu's serious expression, Line Guoan and his son couldn't laugh anymore, and Han Zhang's eyes widened. At this time, Zhu Fangdan, the master brought by Fatty Lu, also interjected: "Old General Line, students can guarantee that students' Your boss, Mr. Lu, really came to join you this time. The students also came here voluntarily, and begged you to give me a bite of food. Of course, we will definitely not eat you, old general, for nothing, student. He has a little knowledge of medicine and is well-known, in the future, if the army that the old general belongs to has miasma, if the students can't get rid of the disease, please let the old general deal with it at will."

"Old General Line, really, my young master really came to join you." Xiao Erlang also interjected, "To tell you the truth, old general Line, before my young master came to Nanning, he had already made arrangements for his funeral. We are ready to throw our lives in Nanning at any time, and the rest of us are also like this, ready to accompany the young master to throw our lives in Nanning."

When Fatty Lu and his group reached this point, the father and son of the Line family immediately widened their eyes, and they could hardly believe their ears. Han Zhang, the prefect of Nanning, even screamed, "Lord Lu, what happened?" ? How could the servant say such unlucky words?"

"My young master has offended someone, and someone wants to kill my young master by such shameless means as framing." Xiao Erlang said quickly.Before Xiao Erlang could explain in detail, Fatty Lu waved his hand and said, "Erlang, don't interrupt, let me speak for myself."

After drinking the dog legs, Fatty Lu turned to Lan Guoan and Lan Yuxuan and his son again, cupped his hands and said, "Old General Line, Third General Line, since Lu is here to join you, then Lu Yifeng dare not hide anything from you. After Lu finished talking about the whole story, if the old general and the young general were willing to take Lu in, then Lu would be very grateful. If the old general was afraid of being implicated by Lu, then Lu would not force it, and immediately got up and left. Find a place to live elsewhere."

"Lord Lu, please speak, the old man is all ears." Lin Guoan put away his smile and said seriously: "Lord Lu, please rest assured, as long as you are not violating the laws of the court, but are forced by traitors, then as long as you are still in Nanning One day, if the old family is alive, they will do their best to protect your safety."

"Thank you, Old General Line. The younger generation will just tell you the truth." Fatty Lu cupped his hands to thank him, cleared his throat again, and explained how he was befriended and enmity by Kong Sizhen, and how he was framed by Kong Sizhen, which led Gan Wenkun to recommend him He explained in detail how he failed to take over as the magistrate of Qujing, tried to get himself to Daxing to facilitate harm, and how he was afraid of Kong Sizhen's revenge.

At the end, Fatty Lu said with a gloomy face: "The younger generation is sure, if the younger generation obeys the arrangement of the officials to take up the post in Daxing, then there must be a dead end there. Resigning from office and returning to the hometown, it is confirmed that he refuses to serve the emperor and has evil intentions." Capital crime, Si Gege has something to say in front of the emperor. So the younger generation simply decided to come to Guangxi and take the initiative to send Si Gege to kill him at will. At the same time, he also used this to tell the emperor that it was not that the younger generation refused to serve him, but that the younger generation was killed by others. Forced to do so!"

When Fatty Lu explained in detail why he came to Nanning to defect to Line Guoan, all the people present held their breaths, and no one interrupted casually to say a word. superior.The expressions on the faces of the father and son of Line Guoan and Line Yuxuan were very complicated and unpredictable. After a long time, Line Guoan slapped the table and said angrily: "My lord is a hero, how could he give birth to such a daughter? , Knowing what she has done, I am afraid that she will not rest in peace even if she dies!"

Talking bitterly, Rong Guoan couldn't help turning away his face and coughing violently, while Rong Yuxuan hurried up to pat his father on the back, and said softly in a woman's voice while patting: "Father, don't be angry, five years ago You took the initiative to hand over the power of Guangxi to her, Kong Sizhen, and you have repaid the great favor of the prince. What the woman surnamed Kong has done these years has also proved that she did not pay attention to the merits of guarding the land that our line family gave her. Basically, It's already done, and I don't owe anyone anymore. She became a dragon and a snake, and she became a snake, and it has nothing to do with our family, so there is no reason to be so arrogant and careful about her body."

"Is she worthy of making me angry?" Yan Guoan coughed and said, "I'm angry because the prince's fame in the first life has been completely defeated by her, and our Dingnan Palace has completely become the laughing stock of the world." !"

"Marshal, we are not the ones being laughed at, what are you afraid of?" Hu Tongchun, a confidant of the Line family and his son, interjected, "From the day that bitch forced you to leave Guilin and move to Nanning, we have It has nothing to do with Dingnan Palace, even if Dingnan Palace is ridiculed by everyone in the world, it cannot laugh at us."

"No wonder that bastard Hu Guozhu suggested me to join old man Line." Fatty Lu, who didn't know it beforehand, was secretly happy, and said to himself: "After a long time, it turns out that Line Guoan is the master of great achievements, and was forced out of Guilin by Kong Si bitch. From Nanning, it seems that this time I'm fanning the flames and turning the line family and bitch Kong Si into a complete rift."

Under the secret joy in his heart, Fatty Lu couldn't help but sneak a look at the father and son of the Line family again, only to see Line Yu Xuan's almond eyes, which were more charming than a woman's, just turned to him, and the four eyes met, Line Yu Xuan with a mustache A woman's shyness blushed on her fair and tender face, and she quickly turned her eyes away. Fatty Lu also quickly turned her eyes away, and at the same time, goosebumps fell all over his body, "Mother, is this line ladyboy interested in me?" Right? If he is really as good as Long Yang, then I have just escaped from the tiger's mouth and entered the wolf's den again?!"

At this time, Line Guoan's cough had gradually subsided, and after thinking for a while, Line Guoan said weakly but excitedly: "Lord Lu, Master Zhu, don't worry, you can live here boldly, as long as I, Line Guoan, still have breath. Here, I will definitely protect your safety! Also, this old man wants to see if she, Kong Sizhen, has the guts to come to Nanning to act recklessly?!"

"That's right, Mr. Lu, please rest assured to live here." With the guarantee from the highly respected and respected Lin Guoan in the Dingnan Palace, Han Zhang, the prefect of Nanning, naturally rushed to make short favors, "I also have a few friends in the court. After going back tonight, the officials must write a letter to explain the situation to them, and ask them to go to the court to avenge your grievances, Mr. Lu, and to explain to the court your utter loyalty to the emperor."

"Thank you, Old General Line, thank you Han Futai." Fatty Lu cupped his hands to thank him, and then sighed, "Redressing grievances and reinstating officials and so on, I dare not think about anything, I just hope that the emperor can understand the ruthlessness of this junior." Sincere loyalty, forgiving the younger generation's act of anger, one day the humble official can return to Yunnan to reunite with his wife and children, and work and study until the end of his life, then the younger generation is already very grateful."

"Lord Lu has said it before, when today's holy candle shines brightly, I believe that you will soon understand the reason and return your innocence." Han Zhang comforted him again, and then asked impatiently: "Lord Lu, Now that you have made up your mind to settle down in Nanning, what do you plan to do next? If Mr. Lu wants to take up any position in Nanning, and if there is any place that needs the help of the lower officials, the lower officials will definitely do their best."

"Yes, Master Lu." Although Yu Xuan's expression was a bit shy, he couldn't wait to say: "If Master Lu does not dislike it, in the last general's shogunate and the Nanning garrison, no matter what position, Master Lu can do whatever he wants. pick."

"Thank you Han Futai, and thank you Third General Line." Fatty Lu didn't dare to look at Line Yuxuan's pretty face with a beard, but just lowered his head, as if he was very disheartened and said: "But Lu Yifeng has gone through this catastrophe. , I have already given up my mind to become an official again, and I don’t want to take on any errands. Old General Line, Third General, don’t you want to hire a tutor for Young Master Line? If you don’t mind, let Lu Yifeng teach you How about young master Line?"

"Lord Lu, this is too big to be useful." Hu Tongchun, the confidant of the Lin family and his son, couldn't hold back, and rushed to say: "I believe Master Lu has also seen that our Nanning is really too poor now, and the common people can't even afford food." We don’t have enough to eat, and our Nanning garrison is often owed military salaries, and we can’t solve the problem for three days. If a capable person like you can help us solve these problems, our Nanning army and people will definitely be grateful to you.”

"General Hu was joking. Lu is just a down-and-out employee now. With such a great ability, he can help the fathers, villagers, soldiers and civilians in Nanning solve these problems?" Fatty Lu shook his head and smiled wryly.

"Master Lu, you are just joking!" Hu Tongchun became anxious, and said loudly: "Who doesn't know that when you were in Qujing, Master Lu, you turned Qujing, which is poorer than Nanning, into a small town in Yunnan and Guizhou in just three years?" In the south of the Yangtze River, the common people are well-fed and well-fed, full of food and music? If you come to Nanning, why don’t you help us? We don’t ask for more, as long as Nanning can be half as rich as Qujing, we will be satisfied!”

"General Hu, that's just a coincidence. It's the work of the Eight Banners Fushou Ointment. It has nothing to do with me. Now that the Eight Banners Fushou Ointment has been exclusively monopolized by Prince Pingxi, there is nothing I can do about it." Fatty Lu shook his head resolutely, and said: "Besides, Lu Yifeng is already in danger now, and he doesn't plan to do those things that attract people's attention, otherwise, if he is accidentally framed by jealousy and treachery in the court, Lu Yifeng's head will be even more difficult to protect."

"Who the hell would dare?!" Hu Tongchun slammed the table, jumped up and yelled, "If she, Kongsi bitch, dares to come to Nanning to trouble you, Mrs. Lu, I, Hu Tongchun, will do my best not to. I have to bring my brothers to fight her!" The other Guangxi generals echoed and yelled, saying that if Kongsi bitch dares to come to Nanning to be presumptuous, she must let her come in standing and go out lying down!

"Shut up, don't talk nonsense!" Line Yuxuanfeng stared, stopped Hu Tongchun and the others, then turned to Line Guoan, and said softly: "Father, since Mr. Lu has made up his mind, let's not force it." Didn’t Master Lu want to teach Qiyu? Then we will entrust the younger brother to Master Lu. I believe that under the guidance of Master Lu, the younger brother will definitely become a pillar of talent like Master Lu. It's a good thing that parents can't even dream of."

Saying that, Line Yuxuan pinched Line Guoan's arm.However, Lan Yuxuan's hint was obviously a waste. Knowing a son is like a father. Before Lan Yuxuan finished speaking, Lan Guoan had already understood his son's intentions - first stabilize Lu Fatty, a living cash cow, and let him First take root in Nanning, and then slowly find a way to let him show his strengths, invigorate the dying economy of Nanning Prefecture, and completely improve the problem of the difficulty of getting food and pay from the Ministry of State Security.

After understanding this, Rong Guoan immediately nodded and said, "Since Master Lu insists, then I will wrong Master Lu, and my ineffective youngest son, Rong Qiyu, will also be entrusted to you, Master Lu from today on. My lord, you just have to teach him at ease, if he dares to be disobedient, the old man will beat him with a whip himself!"

"Don't worry, Old General Line, you don't need to take action." Fatty Lu smiled sinisterly, pointing to the dog legs he brought, and said: "Your junior is not teaching him alone, but also teaching him with a few loyal subordinates. Master Zhu will definitely play a big role at that time - keeping young master Lin obedient and obedient without any sequelae."

As soon as he finished speaking, Fang Shiyu and Hong Xiguan, Fatty Lu's two dog-legged sons, grinned knowingly, while Rong Guoan and his son Yuxuan shivered together, and looked at each other, feeling a bad premonition in their hearts , "My youngest son (my younger brother), I'm afraid that he will not have a good life in the future."

………………

The situation was actually a hundred times more serious than what Line Guoan and his son had imagined. The day after Fatty Lu became a teacher at a private school in Line House with an annual salary of 50 taels of silver.As soon as the day dawned, Rong Guoan's youngest son, the little demon king of the world, was dislocated by Hong Xiguan's shoulder joints, hanged from a tree, howled and screamed all morning, until It was during lunch that Zhu Fangdan personally connected Lin Qiyu's shoulder joints.

In the afternoon of the same day, the unconvinced Line Qiyu suddenly pulled out a dagger from the shoe tube, intending to assassinate Fatty Lu, an annoying teacher, but Fang Shiyu slapped the dagger flying more than twenty feet away, and then Fang Shiyu stood where he was and let Line Qiyu Punching and kicking, until the little devil beat his hands and feet blue and purple, he couldn't even open his five fingers, and screamed like a pig in pain, Zhu Fangdan gave him medicine for treatment with a smile, killing and controlling him. buried.

On the third day, Line Qiyu changed his strategy and suddenly picked up the inkstone on the table to hit Fatty Lu on the head, but the inkstone was still in the air, and was caught by Hong Xiguan, and then Fang Shiyu grabbed Line Qiyu and threw it out of the window. It smashed through the window and flew five or six feet away, falling down with blood all over his head and face. It wasn't until the little devil got up by himself, grinning, that Zhu Fangdan went up to bandage him to stop the bleeding.

In the afternoon, the little devil finally succeeded once, biting the fat on Fatty Lu's leg, and immediately dislocated his jaw, and then he was treated as a basketball by Hong Xiguan and Fang Shiyu, practicing high throws and low catches in the yard, He was constantly being thrown three or four feet high, and the little devil screamed in fright, closing his eyes tightly, for fear that he would fall to his death if he was not careful.

But to be honest, even Fatty Lu secretly admired the little devil in Rong Guoan's house - he was tossed like this by his own dog legs, and he didn't cry from the beginning to the end, let alone shed a tear. Children are really rare.

Finally, after Hong Xiguan and Fang Shiyu had had enough fun, Zhu Fangdan, who was sitting in the shade of a tree drinking tea, put down the erotic painting in his hand, and connected the little devil's chin with a smile on his face. Fatty Lu also approached the little devil and asked with a smile. Said: "Boy, what's the matter? Do you want to play anymore? Are you convinced?"

"I don't agree!" Line Qiyu, whose appearance is far inferior to his brother's, yelled, rubbing his chin joints, glaring at Fatty Lu and shouting: "You are relying on your two dog legs to be good at martial arts, if my martial arts are better than them, I will definitely beat you until your mother can't recognize you!"

"Good boy, you really have some backbone!" Fatty Lu nodded in approval, and then asked: "Then do you want to learn martial arts from Fang Shiyu and Hong Xiguan?"

"Of course I do." Line Qiyu blurted out: "If you let them teach me martial arts, I won't beat you."

"Then what do you want to do after learning martial arts?" Fatty Lu asked with a smile.

"Kill that bitch Kong Sizhen! And that bastard who killed Sun Yanling!" Fatty Lu was a little surprised by Line Qiyu's answer.

"What's the matter? You hate Kong Sizhen and Sun Yanling very much?" Fatty Lu asked curiously.

"I don't just hate them, I want to chop them up!" Line Qiyu yelled, "My family lives well in Guilin, but these two bastards are jealous of my father's achievements and prestige, and drove my family here. Here they come. They also deliberately withheld my father and my...brother's military pay, and deliberately did not give enough food and grass, so that the brothers and uncles in the army would not listen to my father, but only listen to them! They have been harming my father My brother, I want to avenge my father and my brother!"

"Good boy, I can't see that he is still a little dutiful boy with ambition." Fatty Lu smiled satisfied, squatted down again, and said to Qiyu with a smile: "Boy, if you want to learn martial arts from Fang Shiyu and Hong Xiguan, I You can let them teach you, but before they teach you, you have to answer a question for me, and I will let them teach you after you answer it."

"You ask, what's the question?" Line Qiyu asked impatiently.

"Then listen carefully." Fatty Lu pointed to Fang Shiyu and the others and said, "Look, your big brother Hong and third brother Fang are so skilled in martial arts, they can crush me to death with one hand. Still listening to me like this? And this Uncle Zhu, his medical skills are so high, some people pay a lot of money to hire him, why does he still follow me and listen to me?"

"This..." This question is obviously beyond the line Qiyu's ability to answer. After thinking hard for a long time, the little devil shook his head and said, "I don't know."

"Okay, maybe this question is too difficult, I'll change it to a simpler question for you." Fatty Lu smiled, and asked again: "I am not an official now, and I don't know any martial arts. Brother wants me to teach you, I tortured you so badly, and they didn't come forward to take care of it? Also, why is Kong Sizhen, the one you hate the most, still so afraid of me and wanting to put me to death? What is this for? "

"Kong Sizhen is afraid of you?" Line Qiyu was startled.Fatty Lu nodded seriously and said, "She is afraid of me. If you don't believe me, you can ask your father or brother."

"Then why is she, Kong Sizhen, afraid of you?" Line Qiyu asked curiously.

"Because I have this." Fatty Lu pointed to his fat head, and said shamelessly: "Because my head is filled with countless knowledge, powerful knowledge, so Kong Sizhen is afraid that I will use this knowledge to kill her and let her There is no place to die. It is also because of my knowledge that your father and brother respect me so much and trust me so much. No matter how much I torture you, they will not care. And your Uncle Zhu, Brother Hong and San Fang Brother and the others, they only listen to me because they just want to learn these things from me, you should understand now, right?"

"Your knowledge is really that good?" Line Qiyu asked seriously.

"Of course." Fatty Lu smiled, and said: "I can say this, if you can learn half of my knowledge from me, then Kong Sizhen and Sun Yanling will not dare to bully your father and your brother in the future, and you will be fine." I will kowtow to you desperately, begging you to spare their lives."

"Then teach me your knowledge." Line Qiyu grabbed Fatty Lu's sleeve, and begged with his eyes wide open: "You must teach me those powerful knowledge, I want Kong Sizhen and Sun Yanling to kneel and beg me, please I'll spare their lives! Then I'll drag them out and beat them with army sticks and blow their asses open!"

"That depends on whether you are obedient or not." Fatty Lu stood up, stretched his waist and said, "If you are obedient, I can consider teaching you some knowledge, and I can also ask your Third Brother Fang and Brother Hong to teach you Martial arts. If you are disobedient, then forget it, anyway, there are many people in the world begging me to teach them—just like your brother, begging me."

"I'm obedient, I will be obedient." Line Qiyu became anxious, and quickly grabbed Fatty Lu's sleeve and begged, "Mr. Lu, I will definitely listen to you in the future, I promise to listen to you, please teach me."

"Really obedient?" Fatty Lu's small eyes slanted, and when he saw Line Qiyu nodding innocently and reverently on his face, Fatty Lu shouted: "Be obedient, hurry back to the study for me, and recite the Three Character Classic once! Learn to crawl first, and then learn to fly with me!"

"Okay, I'll recite it." Line Qiyu agreed loudly, let go of Fatty Lu, and ran into the study in a hurry, and the sound of "human nature is good at the beginning" was heard in the study soon.

"As expected of a child, it's really easy to deceive." Fatty Lu smiled, stretched again, and shook his head casually, but suddenly saw that Lan Yuxuan, who looked like a woman, was standing at the moon cave gate at some point Under the peach blossom tree outside, the handsome face is not above the pretty face under the woman, but it is full of charming smiles.

"Mother! This dead shemale smiles so ambiguously, doesn't he really like me?" Fatty Lu tightened his chrysanthemum, and the goosebumps immediately fell all over the ground again.
