Luofan spoke sincerely, and Wu Jiuzhen nodded. After listening, he said: "Young Master has a clear understanding of human affairs, and the future is bright, so I don't need to say more. You and I can see each other again someday, and we will talk to you then. You have important things to do today, so I won't Stay longer. Please.”
Luo Fan was confused. Why did Wu Jiuzhen see off the guests all of a sudden? However, since she said we could see each other again, she would come back for advice in the future. Then he got up and left.
Confused, he left Wu Mansion. Luofan admired in his heart that the most talented woman in the world was well-deserved. It is indeed remarkable to be able to see through oneself, to be able to see through the affairs of the world, to know the past and calculate the future. Without further delay, he walked back to Zhang Mansion, preparing to welcome the ten commanders.
The funeral ceremony has been prepared in Zhang's house, and three nanmu coffins were parked in the mourning hall, namely Zhang Ruoxu, the second son Zhang Bi, and the third son Zhang Xian. As for the bodies of the other men of the Zhang family, they could not be recovered and could only be buried in the wilderness. Poor Zhang family, a wealthy family, all the men were slaughtered, and relatives and friends fled. Nowadays, there is a great mourning, the family is deserted, and no relatives or friends come to help. Only Zhang Feiling, an orphan girl in linen clothes, knelt in front of the soul to take care of her.
A family accident, one person is missing from the world. Zhang Feiling stayed alone in the mourning hall, unavoidable in grief. She cried all morning until her eyes were red and swollen and her clothes were half wet.
Luofan was now Zhang Ruoxu's adopted son, so he also took up his mourning clothes and knelt down in front of the soul.
After paying homage, Luo Fan squatted beside Zhang Feiling and consoled him: "Master Zhang, he is a man of integrity and integrity, which is known to everyone in the world. Now that his soul has returned to heaven, he has the protection of the gods. Things in the world are impermanent, but they will always reincarnate according to the laws of heaven. Good people will be blessed later. Yuwen, there is no need to mourn."
Zhang Feiling nodded and said sadly: "Thank you very much, my sworn brother is so kind and kind. Yuwen knows."
Luofan said again: "Yuwen, the commander of the civilian army will be here soon. Before meeting them, I have something to say to you, and I will go to the side hall to speak."
Zhang Feiling collapsed from crying, so the maids on both sides helped him up and followed Luo Fan to the side hall.
In the side hall, the two sat opposite each other again.
Luo Fan poured a cup of tea for Zhang Feiling and said comfortingly: "Sister-in-law, have a drink of water. You have worked hard to prepare for the funeral of your adoptive father. Don't exhaust yourself."
Zhang Feiling nodded, took a sip of tea. At this time, when he looked at Luofan again, he felt that he was extremely handsome with delicate eyebrows and bright eyes. It looks a hundred times more noble and friendly than when I first saw it on the street. He was able to kill Yin Shaozheng in one day, leaving his helmet and armor behind, and he was able to calmly return from the court. It can be seen that his arrogance from beginning to end comes from his strong strength.
Luofan asked: "Yu Wen, there are ten divisions in the commoner army: Divine Wind, Divine Mountain, Divine Fire, Lin Yin, Shui Yin, Earth Yin, Mingguang, Dark Jue, Flying Rope, and Jade Whistle. Among these ten major commanders, who can Is there anyone you trust?"
Zhang Feiling shook her jade face slightly and said: "I live in a boudoir and know very little about foreign affairs. I think the only people I can trust are Cen Huang, the commander of the jade whistle, and You Guozhang, the commander of the divine fire. Cen Huang often comes to my house, so he is familiar with it. You Guozhang's divine fire force is strong. Feng Baiyin, the weakest but strongest leader of Shenshan, often suppresses him with excuses. His father takes the most care of him, so he should be a trustworthy person. Zhang Cong and Hu Eryou, the leaders of Shenfeng and Anjue, are me. My father’s trusted team. However, I don’t have much contact with them, so I don’t know if they can be trusted.”
Luo Fan had already expected Zhang Feiling's words. If the top ten commanders were truly loyal to Zhang Ruoxu, they should come to the Zhang family to help him, both openly and secretly. But now, Zhang Ruoxu has been dead for three days and no one has come, which shows that they have planned to cut off contact with the Zhang family. But the details can only be understood by meeting a real person.
Luofan asked no more questions, took out a letter from his arms and handed it to Zhang Feiling, saying: "There is no commander in the army, and it is difficult for the ten commanders to choose a commander for a while. As the only bloodline left by the Zhang family, you have a chance." Yibo. In order to become famous as a teacher, I have prepared something for you. Take a look."
Zhang Feiling took the letter and looked down. The envelope was stamped with his father's seal. I took out the letter and read it. Even the handwriting was that of my father. The content of the letter surprised her even more.
The letter stated that Zhang Ruoxu had a premonition that the four major families might attack him, so he wrote his will in advance. If he dies, Zhang Moran or Zhang Feiling will inherit the leadership of the Buyi Army. The will also bears the seal of command of the civilian army.
Zhang Feiling looked up with doubts on her face and asked, "Brother, where did you get this letter? Why has my father never mentioned this matter?"
Luofan made no secret and said: "The seal is authentic, and the content of the letter is that I found someone to imitate your father's handwriting. But you can rest assured that no one in the world can tell whether this letter is genuine or not. This will be your Master the important bargaining chip of the civilian army."
Zhang Feiling stared at the letter and read it carefully a few more times. She is also well-read in poetry and books, and is proficient in calligraphy and painting. Naturally, he is familiar with his father's handwriting. After looking carefully for a long time, I really couldn't see any flaws.
After putting away the letter, Zhang Feiling was still a little worried, and said worriedly: "This letter is indeed a perfect imitation. But what if they don't recognize it? I'm not used to lying. I'm afraid that my cowardice will show up and ruin your important event."
Luofan rarely turned serious and said seriously: "Yuwen, you can't be hesitant when doing big things, let alone be afraid. Don't you want to avenge your father? Don't you want to live a life of ignorance and mediocrity? How many people in this world are True, more or less false. Is the loyalty of the ten commanders to your father true, or is Li Benxin's kindness to your father true? They are all false. Without extraordinary courage and means, how can you take revenge and how can you survive in the world? This world is about survival. Now, I will give you a chance to think carefully about whether you have the courage to go on. If you really don’t have the courage, I won’t force you. I will give you tens of thousands of taels of silver and arrange for you to spend the rest of your life in peace elsewhere! "
Zhang Feiling turned pale for a moment!
There was silence for a long time. Seeing her gradually clenching her fists, the anger of revenge began to burst out in her eyes. Luofan was right. If he wanted to take revenge, he had to seize his rights. They can betray their father, they can kill their whole family, what else do they have to fear!
After thinking about everything, Zhang Feiling said seriously: "Brother, I listen to you. I want to be the commander-in-chief of the civilian army, and I want revenge! Even if I risk my life, I will help you do this well."
Luofan nodded appreciatively: "Okay, if you have such a spirit, you will definitely succeed. Besides, with me as your backing, no one will have the chance to hurt you again. Remember, everyone has their own advantages." and shortcomings. And your advantage is not in force, but in your weakness. The more incompetent you are and the easier it is to manipulate you, the easier it will be for the top ten commanders to let you be the commander. As long as you win the position of commander, you can be justified and eradicated. Those commanders who have dissatisfaction with you. When you really take control of the commoner army, it is only a matter of time before you take revenge on the four major families. After a while, you first invite Cen Huang, You Guozhang, Hu Eryou and Zhang Cong to the side room. Leave the suicide note Show it to them to confirm your identity as the legitimate heir. If they are really loyal to your father, they will naturally support you."
Zhang Feiling nodded and said: "I understand. However, the remaining six troops are headed by Feng Baibai, the commander of Shenshan. Feng Baibai has long been coveted for the position of commander-in-chief of the civilian army. When his father was here, he was already disrespectful. I am afraid that even if he sees the suicide note, he will not approve it. And it is very likely that he will lead other commanders to make a big fuss, and even propose to split the civilian army. How should I deal with it then? "
Luofan waved his hand and said: "There is no need to worry. The reason why the Common Army is strong is because the ten branches can work together. Once it is divided, its combat effectiveness will be reduced by more than half. A hero like Feng Baiyin is cruel but more cunning. He It is impossible to try to split the civilian army."
Luofan and Zhang Feiling gave some brief instructions and then came to the east courtyard to find Luo Ya to arrange the next thing.
In the east courtyard, Zhong Fengxue was holding a secret book and trying to figure out Tai Chi techniques. Luofan saw this and walked over.
Luo Fan looked at Zhong Fengxue, who was covered by a black robe, with only her eyes exposed, and smiled: "How are you, are you adapting well to my Taiping Pavilion?"
Zhong Fengxue nodded: "It's an eye-opener."
Luo Fan smiled and said: "That's good. Luo Ya is a good teacher, and you can learn a lot from her. And she has a good eye. You are indeed suitable for practicing Tai Chi. You are born with tough bones, agility, and deep internal strength. Yinrou. If you can learn the Taiji method again, you can advance and retreat, and you will be invincible in the world in the future."
Zhong Fengxue said calmly: "I have only practiced Yinji Palm in my life. I have never dabbled in such moves. I still don't know the key."
Luo Fan smiled and said: "Oh, that's a coincidence. I once followed Taoist Master Jiuye of the Tai Chi Sect and learned Tai Chi for a few months, which can be regarded as a small achievement. I can lead you to get started faster than you can figure it out on your own. many."
Zhong Fengxue: "Thank you."
The two walked into the field, and Luofan explained: "What I seek in this Tai Chi journey is the unity of body, energy, mind, and nature. When I first practice, don't use the internal energy first, and focus on smoothing the tendons and regulating the pulse. . I will first perform a set of Tai Chi Palm, a set of Tai Chi Quan, and a set of Tai Chi Knife. Let you see the key to exerting force in these three different movements."
After saying that, Luofan moved lightly and slowly performed the three sets of moves. Zhong Fengxue read carefully. It was indeed much easier to see face to face than to read a book.
