The happy life of a prodigal

Of course, the transfer of Chu soldiers, the appointment and promotion of generals all need to go through the Ministry of War.

Therefore, the Ministry of War still has certain powers over the pro-military.

Fang Xiu thought for a while and replied: "My Zuo Zhonglang will be appointed by His Majesty, if His Majesty asks me to go to the Ministry of War, I will naturally go to the Ministry of War.

If His Majesty asks me to stay in the army, I will naturally stay in the army. The uncle should understand this point, right? "

When Ma Wenhua heard this, a smile appeared on his face. Obviously, he had thought of what Fang Xiu would say in advance, and replied: "If you are willing to come to the Ministry of War, the old man will write a letter to His Majesty. Since His Majesty ascended the throne, this old man has fulfilled his duties and worked hard for His Majesty. His Majesty will still give this old man some face."

A look of surprise appeared on Fang Xiu's face.

So, this guy really wants to win him from the pro-military to the Ministry of War?

For this reason, he was willing to write a letter to His Majesty.

You know, generally speaking, the appointment of ministers of Chu State is ordered by His Majesty.

Moreover, at a specific time, very few people would write to His Majesty on weekdays, requesting a change of location.

There are two reasons for doing this, one is not willing to bother His Majesty, let His Majesty bother you.

The second is to prevent His Majesty from feeling suspicious.

After all, the most taboo thing for a monarch is to form a party for private interests and strengthen himself.

Of course, Ma Wenhua, Minister of the Ministry of War, obviously did not have much concern about this.

Because he was different from the previous ministers of the Ministry of War, he was born as a warrior, and he didn't have many friends in the court, so there was nothing suspicious about asking His Majesty for a Zhonglang general.

only......

I had a good life in the pro-military, why did I go to the Ministry of War to do hard work?

Chapter 224

Fang Xiu looked at Ma Wenhua, with an inexplicable smile on his face, and asked: "Uncle Shi, I don't know if there is anything for me to go to the Ministry of War..."

Although Ma Wenhua is just a warrior, he has been in the officialdom for many years, step by step, to the position of Minister of the Ministry of War. Naturally, he knows more about the world than Fang Xiu, a brat.

As soon as Fang Xiu opened his mouth, Ma Wenhua knew what he wanted to say, with a smile on his face, he said, "Want benefits? No problem, as long as you come to the old man's military department, I can give you whatever you want!"

When Fang Xiu heard this, the corner of his mouth twitched, and he said, "Then I want Your Royal Highness..."

Hearing this, Ma Wenhua's expression changed, he waved his hands hastily, and said, "It's within the scope of my ability."

Fang Xiu glanced at Ma Wenhua angrily, and asked, "Can't you tell me anything?"

Ma Wenhua's mouth twitched.

There is nothing wrong with what you said, but what is it you want, let alone him, even if Yan Zhuang, a scholar of the first and second ministers of the cabinet, may not be able to succeed!

"Change to another..."

An embarrassed smile appeared on Ma Wenhua's face, he took two steps closer, patted Fang Xiu's shoulder, and said, "Change another one, I will definitely satisfy you..."

After finishing speaking, it seemed that he was afraid that he would put forward some amazing conditions. After thinking about it, he added: "As long as it is within the scope of my ability, I will try my best to satisfy you."

Fang Xiu curled his lips, thought for a while, and asked, "Then I don't want to be on duty forever, can I?"

Hearing this, Ma Wenhua breathed a sigh of relief, waved his hand, and said, "As long as you are still in the military department, you can come to be on duty if you want to. If you don't want to be on duty, no one will care about you sleeping in the mansion!"

A smile appeared on Fang Xiu's face, he looked at Ma Wenhua, and asked, "Really?"

Ma Wenhua nodded affirmatively, and said, "It's absolutely true, as long as you agree to come to the Ministry of War with the old man!"

Fang Xiu thought for a while and said, "Oh..."

"Oh...gram...?"

Ma Wenhua had a puzzled look on his face, obviously he didn't understand the meaning of Fang Xiu's words.

"It's just fine."

Fang Xiu replied.

"Then, it's a deal, oh... gram..."

Hearing this, Ma Wenhua grinned happily, and stretched out his hand again, wanting to pat Fang Xiu on the shoulder.

Seeing this scene, Fang Xiu subconsciously took a step back, stretched out his hand to stop Ma Wenhua, and hurriedly said: "There is one more condition..."

Ma Wenhua's hand stopped in mid-air, and he asked a little nervously, "What conditions?"

Fang Xiu said: "From now on, you can't just pat me on the shoulder."

"If you don't want to shoot, don't shoot, as long as you are willing to go to the old man's military department, if you want to pat the old man on the shoulder, there is no problem!"

Ma Wenhua stretched out his hand back, with a smile on his face again.

Seeing this scene, Fang Xiu was completely speechless.

I really don't know what this guy is thinking.

It's inexplicable why he insisted on going to his military department by himself, and why he lowered his profile like this...

Could it be that......

Does this old and unscrupulous person have any special hobbies? When he sees himself handsome and suave, he can't help but have strange thoughts?

Fang Xiu looked at Ma Wenhua's smile, and the more he looked at it, the more he felt a little weird. He couldn't help shivering, and took a step back subconsciously.

He just took a step back, but felt that he bumped into something, and subconsciously looked back, it turned out to be Tian An, the general of Habayashi Guard.

Tian An stood behind Fang Xiu, looking at Fang Xiu with almost the same strange eyes as Ma Wenhua, and at the same time, the smile on his face was similar to that of Ma Wenhua.

When Fang Xiu saw this scene, he immediately felt creepy, and subconsciously wanted to escape from this ghostly place.

Tian An stretched out his hand, patted Fang Xiu's shoulder, looked at Ma Wenhua, and asked, "I don't know what business Mr. Shang Shu is looking for, General Fang Zhonglang of our Habayashi Guard?"

It has to be said that these martial arts practitioners are really very strong, whether it is Ma Wenhua or Tian An, it really hurts to shoot people!

Ma Wenhua looked at Tian An and said, "Fang Xiu is the old man's nephew. As an elder, the old man should take good care of him."

When Tian An heard this, the smile on his face remained the same, and he said: "General Fang Zhonglang is a general who is close to the army, so naturally we will be taken care of by our generals who are close to the army. Don't bother Mr. Shangshu to worry."

The more Fang Xiu listened, the more strange he became, he interrupted the two of them, and said, "The two adults will talk first, the junior still has some things to deal with, so I will take my leave first."

After speaking, he turned around and made a gesture of going away.

"Wait!"

Unexpectedly, at this moment, the other generals also surrounded him, looking at Fang Xiu with smiles in their eyes.

Seeing this scene, Fang Xiu subconsciously wanted to escape.

If these guys give themselves a shot, I'm afraid I won't be able to keep my shoulders today.

Fortunately, these generals didn't seem to have the habit of patting people's shoulders, they just stopped in front of Fang Xiu.

One of the generals looked at Fang Xiu and said with a smile: "Just now in front of His Majesty, General Fang Zhonglang's words are really convincing. Although we are generals who have fought in the frontier for many years, we must analyze the pros and cons of the marriage. But not as good as Fang Zhonglang.

General Fang Zhonglang is really a young hero! "

What's wrong with these guys, queuing up to compliment themselves?

Fang Xiu felt helpless in his heart, but the expression on his face remained unchanged, and he said, "The generals are overrated, this junior just casually said a few words about his own views on the marriage... ..."

The corners of the generals' mouths twitched when they heard this.

It's just a casual... say a few words?

So, the supreme commander of my group of pro-military is not as good as a few casual words like you, a brat?

Of course, martial arts practitioners, especially generals who were born in the army, didn't pay too much attention to these things.

In any case, I am indeed inferior to others in this respect.

"Heh...heh..."

The speaking general looked at Fang Xiu, adjusted his mentality, smiled again on his face, and said: "General Fang Zhonglang, a young hero, has achieved such an achievement before reaching the championship. It seems that we old guys will abdicate in a few years." Let Xian..."

The expression on Fang Xiu's face remained unchanged, but he began to complain wildly in his heart.

What the hell are these guys up to?

Running in front of me and saying these inexplicable words, are you sure you want to win me over?

It sounded like he was looking for trouble for himself!

It has to be said that these generals are far behind those civil servants in terms of speaking, and they are not at the same level.

I thought my EQ was low enough, but these guys are even lower than me!

Hey......

It's a good thing these guys are not on duty in the pro-military, otherwise I would be pissed off by these non-speaking 'Qiu Ba'.

Chapter 225 What marriage?

Several generals exchanged pleasantries with Fang Xiu for a while, and then they left.

As for Ma Wenhua, he also followed them and left the Hall of Mental Cultivation. Before leaving, he wanted to reach out and pat Fang Xiu on the shoulder.

However, probably thinking of the previous promise, he forcibly restrained the urge to pat him on the shoulder.

Seeing this scene, Fang Xiu was quite helpless, but he didn't say much, and followed him out of the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

Outside the palace, Bai Xiaochun and Fang's carriage had already been waiting for a long time.

Seeing Fang Xiu, the coachman immediately bowed and said respectfully, "Master."

Fang Xiu waved his hand and went straight to the carriage.

The carriage started gradually and returned to Fang Mansion after a while.

In front of Fangfu, two carriages that had never been seen before had already parked.

Looking at the two carriages, Fang Xiu always felt a little strange.

Could it be that that kid Wu Yi changed the carriage?

Never heard him talk about it...

After thinking about it, he felt that it was impossible. After all, all that guy's money was spent in the military inspection. Where did he get the money to buy a new carriage.

He didn't sell the carriage, and it was considered good enough to exchange it for silver to pay off the debt he owed.

So... who are these two carriages going to be?

After getting off the carriage, Fang Xiu glanced at Bai Xiaochun beside him.

Bai Xiaochun looked at the two carriages also full of doubts and curiosity.

Seeing this, Fang Xiu didn't ask any more questions.

Anyway, this is Fang Mansion, no matter who it is, they will know when they enter.

Fang Xiu stepped into the Fang mansion and walked straight to his backyard.

Along the way, I ran into a little maid from Fang's mansion, and asked casually, "Are there any guests at the mansion today?"

Seeing Fang Xiu, the little maid hurriedly bowed, and replied respectfully: "Return to Master, there are two dancers waiting for you in the backyard?"

Two girls?

Fang Xiu was slightly taken aback, and then a dazed expression appeared on his face.

He had probably been able to guess the identity of one of the girls. As for the other, after thinking about it, he still couldn't get an accurate answer.

Fang Xiu waved his hand, indicating that the little maid could leave, and then walked into the backyard.

Sure enough, there were two girls sitting on the stone bench in the backyard, looking at each other, there seemed to be some provocation in the eyes of each other.

One of them, as expected by Fang Xiu, was the focus of controversy in the warm pavilion before, His Royal Highness Zhao Yan, Princess Anle of Great Chu.

The other surprised Fang Xiu more or less.

Lin Wanqing......

Originally thought that after falling out with King Ning at King Ning's banquet last time, it would be impossible for her to appear in Fangfu, but she never expected that she would come back to Fangfu...

I just don't know what her purpose is this time.

"Your Highness, Miss Wanqing..."
