The room goes through the late Ming Dynasty, and the back door leads to North America at the beginni

Zhang Jian was a little confused when he heard this, and vaguely felt that something was wrong with this question, but he still replied: "The highest official position that my subordinates have daily contact with is Ruyang County Magistrate, but if necessary, even Magistrate Li Changwen can see him. "

Zhang Jian had previously sent a lot of information to Kaifeng, all about Ruyang.

Therefore, Ge Wenyou knew that Li Changwen was not only the only prefect of the Weibu Department, but also the political advisor and director of the standing office of the Generalissimo's Government Hall.

In layman's terms, he is Liu Sheng's chief military advisor!

"This is great!" Ge Wenyou stood up excitedly, "Go and prepare now and take me to see Magistrate Li!"

Zhang Jian was surprised when he heard this.

Magistrate Li?

Isn't that the right title? Did you miss the word "pseudo"?

Looking at Ge Wenyou's older appearance than before, Zhang Jian finally thought of something and asked tentatively: "Why did Ge Wenyou meet Magistrate Li outside?"

Seeing Zhang Jian's face full of doubts, Ge Wenyou sighed again, sat down and said, "After the Battle of Kaifeng, Li Futai was criticized by Gao Mingheng and others. His Majesty wanted to arrest Li Futai without asking any questions. Governor Li was furious. Committed suicide.

If I hadn't seen the opportunity and walked too fast, I might have been caught by the Jin Yiwei.

Now that there is no place for me in the Ming Dynasty, after much thought, I have the only option to go to Liu Sheng. "

"Li Futai committed suicide?" Zhang Jian was a little hard to accept.

Although he felt that being an official in Weibu was quite good.

But after all, he was working for Li Xianfeng before and was preparing to enter an official career through Li Xianfeng's recommendation.

Who would have thought that while he was still working undercover for the "Rebels", the top leader would actually be gone!

What is this thing called?

Ge Wenyou said angrily: "Chongfan, Fufan, and Xiangfan were lost to thieves one after another. Li Futai is responsible, but the main responsibility does not lie with him.

From the fall of Ruyang last year to Li Chuang's attack on Kaifeng not long ago, Li Futai's troops never exceeded 20,000. How could he suppress these bandits?

It was just that he was involved in party strife and his majesty was ignorant and did not distinguish between right and wrong, which forced Li Futai to commit suicide. "

Zhang Jian came to his senses at this time, and the first thing he thought of was his family, and said anxiously: "Is everything going to be okay with my family?"

"Don't worry, except for Li Futai and me, few people know that you are working as an undercover agent here. If you are still worried, wait until the news subsides and send someone to pick up your family members."

After hearing this, Zhang Jian calmed down.

He thought about the whole thing and couldn't help but said: "Didn't Yuanwai Ge meet with the Marshal on behalf of Governor Li before?

If you want to defect, just go to the Commander's Mansion and report your name, and you will definitely see Magistrate Li.

If Wan Sheng takes you there, not only will it cause trouble, but it will also involve the fact that Wan Sheng turns out to be an undercover agent. "

After hearing this, Ge Wenyou slapped his forehead and said regretfully: "I was careless, thought wrong, and almost hurt you.

In this way, you go back quickly and pretend you don't know me when you see me in the future. Do you understand? "

"Wan Sheng understands."

After speaking, Zhang Jian bowed to Ge Wenyou and turned to leave.

At this time, a relative followed him and said, "Since I want to take refuge with Thief Liu, why not inform Li Changwen of Zhang Jian's identity as an undercover agent so that I can gain some credit?"

Hearing this, Ge Wenyou couldn't help but look at this personal attendant strangely, and said: "Ge Liu, you want to harm me, don't you?"

"I didn't." Ge Liu looked confused and wronged.

"No?" Ge Wenyou stared at him, "Didn't you come up with this bad idea? Zhang Jian is the undercover agent I sent. What credit does it give me to accuse him?

Even if I report him, Li Changwen may not punish him severely, and he might even become an enemy later.

Now that I have concealed his identity as an undercover agent, he will have to listen to me in everything from now on. Isn’t that better than reporting him? "

Ge Liu nodded with a sudden look on his face, "It's true - the master is worthy of being a judge. He is much smarter than me."

This flattery left Ge Wenyou speechless and thought to himself: If I am not as smart as you when it comes to raising people, I will be a fool.

At this time, Ge Liu asked again: "Sir, I think this Liu thief is not as powerful as Li Chuang. Why don't you join Li Chuang?"

"Li Chuang?" Ge Wenyou snorted, "Li Chuang just seemed to have a strong momentum. He said he had a crowd of hundreds of thousands, but how many thousands could he really fight?

If you look at Liu Sheng again, he has established a government office and has elite guards like him. How can Li Chuang compare? "

"That's not right," Ge Liu scratched his head and tried to remember, "The last time my master came to Ruyang, he laughed at this Liu thief, saying that he had little wisdom and little resourcefulness, and he built a government in just three counties. Yamen...”

"Shut up!" Ge Wenyou was so angry that he stood up and kicked Ge Liu's butt, "You really want to kill me for calling me Liu Ze Liu Ze, don't you?

You can't remember the good words, but you can remember the bad words. If it weren't for your father's kindness, I would have driven you back to the countryside! "

After a lesson, Ge Liu finally shut up and honestly served Ge Wenyou to eat, bathe and rest.

The next day.

Ge Wenyou was full of energy after getting up. Then he put on a simple and elegant outfit, had breakfast, and went out with his three followers...

After Liu Sheng had breakfast, he took his guards to inspect the military camps in Ruyang.

After the expansion of various ministries and the reform of the military system in early March, in addition to the fifth brigade of the standing army, a guard regiment and two civilian brave regiments were also established in Ruyang.

More than 20,000 people shoulder the important task of guarding Ruyang. Liu Sheng must understand their situation personally before he can feel relieved.

After inspecting each battalion, Liu Sheng had lunch with the soldiers at the fifth brigade camp before returning to the Generalissimo's Mansion.

After taking a break for a cup of tea, Li Changwen came to meet him.

"I've met the handsome man."

Liu Sheng saw the smile on Li Changwen's face and couldn't help but ask: "Looking at Mr.'s happy face, could it be that there is some happy event?"

With that said, Liu Sheng motioned for Li Changwen to take a seat.

After Li Changwen sat down, he said: "It is indeed a happy event - a talented person has come to join the commander-in-chief."

"Really?" Liu Sheng's eyes lit up, "Isn't it the Yan Ermei whom the gentleman invited in a letter before?"

Li Changwen shook his head and said with a smile: "The commander-in-chief has met this person once. He is Li Xianfeng's aide, Ge Wenyou."

Ge Wenyou?

Liu Sheng remembered this person and said: "According to the information sent back by Xunfeng Guard, Li Xianfeng was arrested by Chongzhen not long ago and committed suicide out of fear of guilt.

As his staff, Ge Wenyou was afraid that he would also be implicated, so he thought of joining us. "

Li Changwen said: "Ge Wenyou was originally an aide who collected intelligence for Li Xianfeng and knew many things. Regardless of his talents, the commander-in-chief should accept him.

My subordinates have talked with this person and found that although he is not a great sage, his ability to do things is good. "

Liu Sheng nodded, "Then I'll go meet this person."

Ge Wenyou was arranged by Li Changwen to rest in an attic near the Zhengshi Hall. Ge Wenyou was somewhat moved when he learned that Liu Sheng came to see him in person.

He bowed deeply to Liu Sheng and said, "Ge Wenyou pays homage to the commander-in-chief!"

"Mr. Ge, you are so polite!" Liu Sheng quickly went to support Ge Wenyou.

When he came to meet him in person, he wanted to act like a courteous corporal, and he had to pay attention to the details.

After the guests and hosts sat down and chatted for a few words, Liu Sheng asked: "Since Mr. Ge was once a staff member of Governor Li, he should know the specific story of the Battle of Kaifeng, right?"
