However, when he handed over the letter, neither Fu Siran nor the foreman wanted to receive the other's letter and token.
The man looked up at the two men blankly and said, "You two, this thing is very important to us. You two will be rewarded after you hand it over to Mr. Yang for me."
Seeing that the man was still saying this, the little foreman finally couldn't help but said, "I really can't help you with this. You have to understand. We are just a group of bandits. Since ancient times, officials and bandits have different opinions, let alone the current Leiyang government." Are they uniting with the Yunzhou government to attack us? If I go there at this time, I’m not a human being inside and out!”
"And so are you. Aren't you also a bandit yourself? How can you collude with the government?" The little foreman immediately asked with dissatisfaction.
Hearing the little foreman's accusation, the man didn't reply. He just looked at the other person.
Fu Siran, on the other hand, said for that person what was difficult for him to say, "He is not a bandit. Maybe he is actually a member of the government. I just don't know whether this person is a female cadre who sneaked into the government or an agent." Someone else?"
Hearing Fu Siran's words, the man immediately coughed violently. After a long time, he turned his attention to this smart young man.
He was too careless before and didn't realize that there was such a smart person among this group of people, but now he didn't want to hide it anymore.
After all, he had no choice. His coughing only caused another bout of coughing up blood.
Therefore, at the moment, he only whispered, "I admit that I do have some relationship with the government, but I am not a female agent! I am a member of the organization under this token, and this token is not given to the Leiyang government. , this is given to a certain nobleman."
After saying this, the man coughed violently again, and black blood poured out from his lips. His lips had begun to turn purple, his face was livid, and his brows were frowning tightly.
It can be seen that he is already dying, and the fact that he can persist to this extent depends entirely on his own perseverance.
He didn't waste time with the little foreman. After all, he understood clearly that the one who could make the decision here was Fu Siran.
Therefore, he only said to Fu Siran, "That nobleman is more important than the government. If you can help me achieve my wish, he can agree to your request."
Then he seemed a little afraid that Fu Siran wouldn't do anything, so he just added, "For example, if you and the people around you want to be good, it's just a word from him. He can redefine the boundaries for you and give you certain benefits." take care of."
These words clearly hit Fu Siran's weakness. After all, who would want to be a bandit if he could live a good life?
And especially under the premise that Chen Yanrong recently exaggerated that the government would come to suppress bandits, he was actually not optimistic about the prospects of Yunhu Village at all.
And Chen Yanrong's crazy strategies also made him feel scared.
He could clearly see that Chen Yanrong was actually tying up the mountain bandits in Leiyang and Yunzhou to fight against the imperial court.
If you win, of course everyone will share in it.
But if they lose, everyone will be doomed.
Judging from some historical materials he read from his predecessors, the rise of each dynasty generally has a destiny of hundreds of years as long as they keep struggling.
The Yong Dynasty is naturally no exception, and now the Yong Emperor is pursuing a rule of inaction, and the politics are actually quite clear.
What's more, although the current Emperor Yong doesn't seem to have done much, and he was brought up from the common people, he first ransacked the Chen family, which was dominated by the ruling party, and regained military and political power. Later, he dismantled the political power of the Qiangmo barbarians and made the southern border more stable.
Therefore, under this situation, he felt that Chen Yanrong's attempt to coerce such a group of people into colliding with the Yong Dynasty, which was at its peak, was actually tantamount to an egg hitting a stone.
He didn't want to be dragged in, and he didn't want other bandits to be dragged in either.
It's a pity that although he has a pair of eyes that can see the situation clearly, he doesn't have the ability to wake up others.
Others speak softly.
So at this time, if there is a chance to be alone, maybe it is not
wrong.
He looked up at the man and said, "I understand what you said, but how do you prove that the nobleman will give us a chance instead of just killing us and silencing us?"
The man did not answer the other party's words immediately. He just motioned for Fu Siran to come closer to him.
After Fu Siran came close to him, he whispered in Fu Siran's ear, "That nobleman is the King of Jin, Zhao Yanzhen! I was his junior brother. When he sees this letter, he will give the sender a good treat." arranged."
Hearing the man's words, Fu Siran's eyes immediately widened. It was obvious that he was different from other bandits who only robbed homes and houses every day. He had some cultural background, and they naturally knew the information at the entrance of the south and north. There are more people than the average person, and their horizons are wider than the average person.
He had heard of the deeds from when the Qiang Desert army pressed down on the territory to when the Qiang Desert army was completely disintegrated and separated into separate camps.
Although it seemed that King Jin was invisible throughout the whole process, there were reports of his death.
However, this victory without a fight was actually the work of King Jin.
If the operator behind the Leiyang government is King Jin, then they really have no chance of winning.
Once he realized this, he was even more frightened than before.
Although the reputation of this Jin king's benevolence has been spread, even in the early years, when Emperor Yong did not formally establish a crown prince, he was a well-deserved candidate for the crown prince, both in the court and among the people.
It's a pity that judging from the subsequent operations, it is impossible for a truly benevolent person to escape from that fatal situation.
But through that fake death, he actually achieved his escape and got a seal.
So it is really stupid to fight with such people.
Also because of this consideration, he finally took the letter from the other party's hand.
And he only asked the man, "What is your name?"
Upon hearing the other party's inquiry, the man knew that Fu Siran was ready to agree to him, so he immediately said his name with confidence, "My name is Su Bengao."
After roughly knowing his name, Fu Siran just said, "Don't worry, Mr. Su, I will deliver this letter and this token to the person who deserves it."
Hearing Fu Siran's words, the man seemed to have received some promise.
He smiled slightly, and then whispered, "With your words, I feel relieved!"
And after the words fell, it was as if he had finally completed his mission, and the person who was still insisting finally stopped insisting. He just took a last sip of black blood, and then closed his eyes directly.
As soon as he closed his eyes, the little foreman tentatively touched the other person's breath, but it was obvious that the other person's breath was gone.
The little foreman was speechless for a moment, "Why did this man die just after he finished speaking?"
After the words fell, the little foreman immediately turned his attention to Fu Siran. Then he looked at Fu Siran with a look of hatred and said, "Siran, why did you agree to such a thing? We are bandits? He We are not on the same road as us. If we go to help him deliver the message, isn't this asking for death? And now the Leiyang government is going to kill us. If we go there like this, let alone whether we are worthy of the brothers of Yunhu Village, It’s morally speaking, it’s not right for us to act like this!”
Upon hearing the accusation from the little foreman, Fu Siran just said in a cold voice, "To help him is to help ourselves."
"What does it mean to help ourselves? To lead a wolf into the house is also called to help ourselves? Can't you figure out who is our enemy? Who is our friend! We are already very kind to this person without giving him a last hit, but you are actually I still want to help him to commit evil!" The little foreman was really angry this time, and he immediately accused Fu Siran angrily.
But Fu Siran's reaction was much calmer than his.
"Of course I know."
"You know? Then tell me who are our enemies? Who are our people?" the little foreman immediately asked in pursuit.
"The old people in Yunhu Village and even the people in other villages are ours! The government is our official enemy, and Chen Yanrong is my enemy.
Our enemy in the dark. Therefore, it is not impossible to defeat enemies with enemies. Moreover, there are no eternal enemies in this world, only eternal interests. "
When he heard Fu Siran's first two sentences, the little foreman felt that Fu Siran could still be saved. "You still know that the government is our enemy? Then you still..."
But after Fu Siran expressed all the meaning of his words, the little foreman immediately felt that the meaning of his words was wrong.
So he immediately said, "No! What do you mean by this? You said our mountain master is the enemy? Are you crazy? Although she has some mean methods, she is the mountain master of our Yunhu Village. She Could it be possible to harm us! She harmed us! Wouldn’t she have to die too! Aren’t you stupid to suspect that she is our enemy?”
"And if you let people from the government mess with her, wouldn't we also be in trouble too?"
However, facing the questioning of the small foreman, Fu Siran said firmly, "No, I can keep our people! The main person they have to deal with is Chen Yanrong."
Upon hearing Fu Siran's words, the little foreman immediately laughed and said, "What kind of joke are you kidding me? Do you think our mountain master can't be trusted, so can the government be trusted? Don't forget that our original boss was But I have thought about being recruited by the government!"
"But what was the result? How many brothers did we lose that time? If it hadn't been for this, our village would not have been so weak in recent years. If it hadn't been for Master Chen, during the government's round of bandit suppression, we would have been I'm afraid they would all be liquidated. If it weren't for her, most of us would probably be in jail now. And our scale has been getting bigger and bigger in the past few years! Isn't it all because of her management? Her methods are somewhat unscrupulous! But isn’t this also for the purpose of developing copycats, and isn’t it also forced by the government? Why can’t you tell the difference between closeness and distance?”
