Luo Fengtang smiled and nodded, then looked at Vice General Xie, "General Xie, you are worthy of being my most capable subordinate. Military advisor, this analysis makes perfect sense."
Vice General Xie clasped his fists with a respectful look on his face: "This subordinate's success depends entirely on your support, General. I will do my best to serve the General and do my duty faithfully."
Luo Fengtang smiled with satisfaction, "Okay, your loyal general understands that I will leave the sobering soup, so please step aside!"
Vice General Xie took one look at the post and hesitated to speak.
"General..."
Luo Fengtang waved his hand: "I've been drinking too much tonight and I'm a little dizzy. We'll talk about the post tomorrow. Please step aside!"
Lieutenant General Xie said, "Yes," and bowed out of the room.
As Lieutenant General Xie stepped away, Luo Fengtang glanced sideways into the shadows.
There was a fluctuation in the shadow, and a black figure flashed out, chasing the direction where Vice General Xie left.
Vice General Xie left the courtyard where Luo Fengtang was staying and walked straight out.
He was very vigilant and looked back as he walked, always on guard to see if there was a follower behind him.
After leaving the gate of the villa and coming to the street, he deliberately detoured two streets and finally came to the back door of a teahouse.
Two are long and three are short. After patting the door five times, the door to the backyard opened. It was opened by an old man with a hunchback.
"My master has been waiting for you for a long time." The hunchbacked old man said in a hoarse voice and stepped aside to make way.
Vice General Xie nodded to the hunchbacked old man and ducked into the yard.
The hunchbacked old man stuck out his head and looked outside a few more times. It was already nightfall, there were no pedestrians on the street, and there were only a few wisps of fallen leaves blown by the night wind on the empty street.
The hunchbacked old man retracted his body and immediately closed the courtyard door tightly.
In an elegant room on the second floor of the tea house, the fragrance of tea overflows. Behind the bead curtain sits a beautiful woman, holding a pipa in her hand and playing softly, singing softly.
There are two men sitting and standing on this side of the curtain. The man sitting is about forty years old. He has thick eyebrows, big eyes, high cheekbones, and a faint word "Chuan" between his eyebrows.
He sipped the fragrant tea in the bowl and looked across the beaded jade curtain to the beauty behind the curtain. In front of the beauty, his eyes were clear.
Obviously, this is a person who likes to think and work hard, and will not give up until he achieves his goal.
There was a noise outside the door, and another man dressed as a butler standing behind him moved his feet and walked towards the door.
After a while, the housekeeper came back, taking Vice General Xie with him.
"Sir, General Xie is here." The housekeeper leaned over and said.
The middle-aged man sitting there turned around and saw Vice General Xie who was following the housekeeper with a embarrassed look on his face. The middle-aged man put down the tea bowl in his hand, gave Vice General Xie a friendly smile, raised his hand and made a gesture. 'Sit' gesture.
Vice General Xie glanced at the low-key but luxurious decoration in the room, as well as the looming beauty and lingering voice behind the curtain, and he felt uneasy all over.
He stood there and said to the middle-aged man: "Master Hang, I have handed over the post you asked me to give to General Luo."
"I've already said what I need to say. I've tried my best. I won't get involved in this matter. The tea here is good. Master Hang, please use it slowly. Xie will leave now!"
"General Xie, you're already here, why leave in such a hurry? Why don't you sit down, drink some fragrant tea, and listen to a little tune before leaving." Mr. Hang said with a smile and stood up.
Vice General Xie looked embarrassed and said, "Mr. Hang, you are an officer and I am a soldier. It is a special period now. It is best for us to have as little contact as possible to avoid rumors."
Master Hang stood there, holding a teapot in his hand and pouring tea.
Hearing this, his movements paused slightly.
"Rumors?" He raised his eyelids and glanced at Vice General Xie, then chuckled and shook his head.
The sound of the silk and bamboo orchestra was not interrupted. On the side, the official said: "Thank you, General. Please forgive me for being so presumptuous. What you said is wrong."
"General Xie, you are a soldier, and we, sir, are officers. Since ancient times, officers and soldiers have all served the emperor."
"General Xie, you are majestic and upright, keep your integrity and protect your family and country. As for us, sir, as a local official, you benefit the people in the village. The gathering of you officers and soldiers is a blessing to the people of Tianhai County!" road.
Lieutenant General Xie smiled awkwardly and stood there, neither leaving nor staying.
Master Hang has already walked over, holding a cup of fragrant tea in his hand.
"Thank you, General. Please sit down and have some tea together. Mr. Hang has heard about the reputation of the General for a long time and has long wanted to make friends with heroes like the General. Please sit down, please sit down!"
The tea was stuffed into his hands, and Mr. Hang personally put his arms around his shoulders. He was flattering in his words. The dignified governor of a county had such a low profile that Vice General Xie could no longer refuse.
Just like that, half-heartedly, Lieutenant General Xie sat down...
Bieyuan.
Secret guard Ye Yi whispered a few words to Luo Fengtang, and then stood aside, waiting for the next instruction.
After Luo Fengtang heard this, he leaned back on the chair and narrowed his eyes slightly, his dark and cold pupils filled with despair!
"I suddenly remembered something my wife said."
After a long time, Luo Fengtang said to himself.
Ye Yi looked at Luo Fengtang.
Luo Fengtang said: "In this world, there are very few people who don't hold back. They only care about whether the chips for betrayal are enough."
"Vice General Xie has been with me for nearly ten years. Together with Vice General Zhou, I have trained him. I didn't expect that he would do something like a seller seeking glory."
Yoruichi also frowned, expressing confusion about this.
"Master, you have so much trust in Vice General Xie and entrusted him with such a heavy responsibility. In the past two years, the collection and dispatch of the army's food and salary have been left to Vice General Xie. I really can't figure out why Vice General Xie wants to talk to Hang Zhenxing like this. These dog officials are in cahoots with each other!”
Luo Fengtang raised his eyebrows, "People die for money, and birds die for food. Everyone has desires, and so does Vice General Xie. Hang Zhenxing just identified what Vice General Xie lacked, and then gave him what he lacked."
"This can easily explain why I have been kept a secret about my salary for the past two years. It turns out that something happened to the most trusted person around me!"
Ye Yi nodded, with a murderous look in his eyes: "Master, what should we do next?"
"Obviously, Hang Zhenxing made an appointment with Vice General Xie to go to the teahouse tonight to talk. He wanted to use Vice General Xie to drag you into the water again. That post was the bait..."
Luo Fengtang raised his hand to interrupt Ye Yi.
"If you don't enter the tiger's den, how can you catch the tiger's cub? Since these people are so 'sincere' in wanting to win over me, if they are really just for the wealth of a mere citizen of Tianhai County, then their appetite is too small."
"I want to see what the real purpose is for them to spend so much time!"
