Fukang'an was indeed so favored by Qianlong that he actually stayed in the palace for one night as a foreign minister. It was not until the next morning that he sent the freshly baked nine-door admiral Ordo out of the palace with the emperor's order in person, and then he said goodbye to Qianlong and returned to the palace. In his own house.
At this time, his mood was very different from before: Yesterday, he accompanied Qianlong in the imperial garden to inspect the quality of Ordo, and saw with his own eyes that this handsome young master had become stronger than Vajra with a pair of cultivation skills. With his arms, he defeated the "Four Man", "Five Mongolian" and "Jiuzang Monk" masters of the 18th National Congress within half an hour. He also spent half an hour empty-handed and captured the leader of the imperial guard class. Bu's long sword and his title as "The First Warrior of Manchuria".
In Fukang'an's view, Ordo's martial arts skills were not inferior to that of Taoist Hu Long. He was the right person to lead the masters to capture this traitor, and he was expected to succeed.
As soon as he entered the mansion and sat down in the study, a steward from the mansion came forward to report: "Commander, someone asked for an audience outside the mansion early this morning. He claimed to be a fellow disciple of Admiral Gao Jinzhong Gao. He has a confidential matter to report to the Commander-in-Chief. .”
Fukang'an frowned slightly. Although Gao Jinzhong was a feudal official with military power, he was nothing in front of him, the most favored minister of the dynasty. Even if he came in person, whether he wanted to see him or not would depend on his mood. How, let alone his messy classmates.
But I also thought that Gao Jinzhong had died under Taoist Hu Yun's flying knife, so he could not be regarded as sacrificing his life for the country.
Thinking about this affection, he pondered for a moment, and finally nodded slightly and said, "Pass it in."
Not long after, the steward led a vigorous-looking man into the study room, who turned out to be Yu Zhenhai, the chief protector of the "Red Flower Society".
Because he had just suffered the humiliation of being a prisoner, Fukang'an could not help but act more cautiously. Although he agreed to receive the visitor, he summoned a large number of expert guards to his side in advance, and ordered Yu Zhenhai to reply a few feet away and not come near.
In front of Fukang'an, Yu Zhenhai showed no trace of his usual arrogance and violence. He bowed respectfully and said, "A common man, Yu Zhenhai, has seen a great commander!"
"That's all," Fukangan waved his hand casually, and after the other party stood up and stood respectfully, he asked, "What kind of relationship are you and Admiral Gao from the same sect? What's the purpose of this interview with the headquarters?"
Yu Zhenhai replied: "Reporting to the Commander-in-Chief, the villain studied under Wudang Elder Baimei Taoist, while Admiral Gao became a disciple of my mentor's junior brother Feng Daode. After the villain came to the capital this time, someone sent a message saying that Junior Brother Gao was the disciple of Taoist Master Baimei. My master has something to tell me. It’s a pity that due to some strange combination of circumstances, we couldn’t meet before the ‘Masters Conference’. How could we have known that he would..."
After a brief overview, he continued: "The villain has three important news to tell you when he meets the commander this time. First, the true identity of Taoist Hu Huan who caused a big fuss in the 'Masters' Conference' is' The son of Hu Longtu, the chief rudder of the Tiandihui; secondly, the night before yesterday, Taoist Hu Long impressed Chen Jialuo and other leaders of the Honghuahui with his martial arts, and promoted the merger of the two families; thirdly, Chen Jialuo sent the "Thunder Hands" Wen Tailai escorted the undersea roster of the 'Red Flower Club' to Guangdong and handed it over to the 'Tiandi Club' to show his sincerity of attachment!"
"Clang!"
The thin porcelain teacup in Fukangan's hand fell to the ground and shattered into pieces. His face turned as pale as paper, and he asked sternly: "Do you know what you said? If there is any untruth, just one word" If you are charged with "making lies and misleading the public," I will chop off your head!"
Seeing Fukang'an's change of expression, the guards around him shouted angrily. They each pulled out half of the swords from their waists to threaten him, as if they were just waiting for the master's order to cut the person in front of him into pieces on the spot.
"Commander, calm down!" Yu Zhenhai hurriedly prostrated himself, his face as pale as dirt, and kowtowed repeatedly, "Every word of this little man is true, and there are absolutely no lies!"
It is said that when one's martial arts reaches the peak of his level, he will naturally have a transcendent state of mind, and even if he is hit with an axe, he will not be so unbearable. It's just that his martial arts were created by Taoist Baimei with the vision and methods of a great master. He himself didn't have a state of mind that matched his martial arts, so he was inevitably fierce but timid, bullying and charming.
Fukang'an calmed down slightly and asked in a deep voice: "This department believes that what you said is the truth, but how did you know that this is top secret information for the 'Tiandihui' and 'Honghuahui'?"
Yu Zhenhai hesitated and said: "The commander-in-chief wants to know the truth, but he must first forgive the villain's death penalty."
Fukang'an was also a bit smart and quick-witted. After observing his words and expressions, he guessed some of the reasons. He looked calmer and said: "Are you involved with the 'Heaven and Earth Society' or the 'Honghua Society'? My court has never For those who refuse to abandon the dark side and surrender to the bright side, as long as you sincerely join us, this department can guarantee that you will not be held responsible."
"Thank you so much, Marshal!" Yu Zhenhai hurriedly thanked him, and then told all about his identity and his experiences these days, and finally said, "Although this villain was born in a bandit den, he has long been taught by his mentor, Taoist Baimei. He has the heart to correct his evil ways and return to the right path. At this moment, Chen Jialuo and other bandit leaders are temporarily living in a village on the outskirts of Beijing. If the commander-in-chief can trust the villain, the villain is willing to lead the way for the army and annihilate them all in one fell swoop!"
Fukang'an had a look of excitement on his face, but after a moment he slowly shook his head and said: "'Wildfires will never burn out, but the spring breeze will blow them again.' If the 'Honghua Society' cannot be eradicated completely, there will be endless troubles. Not to mention those who The thieves are all highly skilled in martial arts. Even if the army encircles and suppresses them, some fish will inevitably slip through the net. When they were in the Forbidden Palace, they were..."
When he woke up and mentioned what happened back then, he immediately stopped talking, looked at Yu Zhenhai and said: "This department wants to ask you to do something. As long as you do it with all your heart and soul, you will be famous and rich in the future."
Yu Zhenhai was overjoyed and bowed again: "The villain is willing to go through fire and water for the commander-in-chief!"
Fukang'an immediately gave him some instructions, and when Yu Zhenhai said goodbye and left, he suddenly burst into laughter and sighed to the two Qingke think tanks beside him: "Such a vulgar and reckless man actually tried to take advantage of the power of this department. It’s really ridiculous that the sword eradicates dissidents for him!”
Besides, when Yu Zhenhai returned to the village on the outskirts of the city with two pieces of cloth under his arm as the secret base of the "Red Flower Club", he met Chen Jialuo's book boy Xinyan.
Xin Yan said with a smile: "Master Yu, are you going to the city to buy something?"
Yu Zhenhai calmly held up the two pieces of fabric and said, "It's a rare trip to the capital. I bought two pieces of good quality fabric and went back to make some new clothes for your sister-in-law and nephew."
Xinyan clapped and laughed: "They say that Mr. Yu is a rough man, but he is so good at caring for others. My sister-in-law and Xiaoguang are really lucky!"
The two joked for a while. Yu Zhenhai returned to the village, while Xin Yan went outside for a while. After returning, he went straight to see Chen Jialuo.
"Young Master, as expected, Taoist Hu Long was right. The brother who was following said that he just saw him entering Fukangan's house with his own eyes!"
Chen Jialuo had a helpless smile on his face, shook his head and sighed: "I knew he had done something secretly, but I didn't expect that he had come to this point. How will I explain to my adoptive father when he comes to Jiuquan in the future? ?”
Xin Yan said angrily: "Why should the young master blame himself so much? It was the old master who took the decision to pass the throne to the young master, but it was not the young master who took his seat. How could it be his turn to be dissatisfied? Now that he has done such a shameless thing, the young master is Kaixiangtang invited the gang to follow the Ten Commandments and dealt with him with three swords and six holes, and the old man at Quanxia will definitely not be surprised!"
Chen Jialuo said angrily: "Don't talk nonsense! Taoist Hu Long has already made an opinion on this matter, and he will take this opportunity to use his plan to teach the Qing government a big lesson. Since we have promised to obey his orders, we must not make our own decisions. Besides, Taoist Hu Long has already I’ve told you that when you use him again in the future, you can go ahead and tell the fourth brother to perform the play well and don’t let him notice anything strange.”
