As a salted fish, I was forced to become the teacher of all ages

Wan Yanran endured and endured, but in the end she couldn't hold back her complaints: "Since it's all right, shouldn't you let go of your hand?"

Just now, in order to act more realistically, Hua Manlou put one arm around Wan Chengyan's waist, and the other around her neck...

Hua Manlou said solemnly: "Let's forget it, what if he kills the carbine?"

While speaking, a certain young lady entered the arena with a large group of people.

194. Disturbed

All the way Qi Wanrong was praying that she could catch up. After all, the interrogation did take some time, so she was afraid that the White Lotus Sect would run away with Hua Manlou again, or jump over the wall in a hurry to murder him, but...

When a group of people in the front team yelled 'Mr. Hua Qian' in surprise and knelt on the ground, Qi Wanrong seemed to be in a dream.

A few steps forward, Qi Wanrong seemed to be sleepwalking when she saw Hua Manlou sitting on the horse with a girl in her arms: No... my aunt thought you were going to die, so she rushed to save you, but you How fat four?

To be honest, Qi Wanrong was looking forward to meeting Huamanlou at first. She thought that after finding Huamanlou, she would tell him with a proud face that the previous favor was repaid; It's a shame that the fifth rank is actually robbed by the White Lotus Sect, and even thought of teasing him to marry him in Fengxia's cape...

Of course, the last idea was based on the retaliation of the hot air balloon incident that day. After all, Qi Wanrong claimed to be a good buddy of Huamanlou, and she played tricks on her buddy and asked him to marry her...

Not too much, right?

But the scene of Huamanlou holding the white-haired girl sitting upright on the horse lingered in Qi Wanrong's mind for a long time, so she couldn't suppress her anger: Grandma looked for you all over the world, and ate for you How much suffering, but you actually hugged a girl with a face full of benefits?I knew I wouldn't be here!

After Huamanlou asked a few words about the situation, Peng Guang and Liu Fan, who had snotted their noses and tears with disgust on their faces, led people to arrest the members of the White Lotus Sect, then walked up to Qi Wanrong and said with a smile: "Oh , eldest niece, have you worked hard?"

This is the first meeting between the two since the hot air balloon betting incident.

I have to say that when Huamanlou saw Qi Wanrong, she was really moved. After all, it is not easy to have such a friend who is willing to work hard when she is in danger, and Huamanlou can guarantee that Qi Wanrong will come to save her. Not having any sense of utilitarianism - on the one hand, Duke Ying's mansion does not lack the kindness of Huamanlou, on the other hand...

According to Qi Wanrong's nature of beating a bandit, the day she is utilitarian, it is estimated that the world will change.

In short, according to the principle that the closer the relationship is, the more casual the greeting is, there is nothing wrong with Hua Manlou greeting Qi Wanrong like this, but Qi Wanrong, who was already unhappy, became even more angry when he heard him say this: "It's called auntie! It's okay." No little...huh!"

Hua Manlou, who had escaped from birth, was in such a happy mood at this time that he didn't notice anything wrong with Qi Wanrong at all, and introduced it to Wan Cheng Yanran who was beside him: "This is Qi Wanrong, the eldest lady of Ying Guogong's mansion, The only female general in the country, she can be called a heroine; niece, this is the genius doctor Wan Chengyan, I can escape thanks to her, otherwise I might not be able to see you."

There were so many people talking, Hua Manlou didn't plan to disclose Wan Yanran's identity here, but Qi Wanrong didn't care about it at all, she just gritted her molars and said hello casually: "It's a pleasure to meet you..."

It has to be said that Wan Cheng Yanran is much more sensitive than Hua Manlou. Seeing that Qi Wanrong seemed to be hostile to her, although she felt puzzled, she still replied perfunctorily: "I have admired her for a long time..."

Seeing this, Hua Manlou was bewildered: "Why are you two so weird?"

The so-called bystanders are clear, Xiaodong and Xiaonan who are behind Qi Wanrong looked at each other, and the two quickly took two steps back and whispered: "Obviously the eldest lady seems to be a bit enlightened, but where did this woman come from?"

"Looking at my uncle's attitude, I think he still has a lot of heart for this..."

"Young master is too outrageous. Missy has suffered so much for him these days, but what is he going to do?"

"Oh... man!"

"Don't sigh, I have to find someone to stay by her side, and I can't let her contact with my uncle alone anymore!"

Xiao Nan pointed to Xiao Bei and the others who looked at Wan Cheng Yanran with cute stupid faces behind him: "You mean, let these idiots guard? It's not bad enough!"

Xiaodong stroked his forehead and sighed, "What a crime!"

When the two of them were whispering, Qi Wanrong suddenly felt that her emotions were indeed a little wrong: This is considered to be a rescue, so she should be happy, right?

So she said angrily: "After you were robbed, the capital was in a mess, His Majesty was furious, there were thousands of people running around for you, but you are lucky, you are in your arms..."

Although these words are normal, and on the surface they are teasing Huamanlou, but no matter how you hear it, there is such a smell of vinegar jars in the core, it is still f*cking old vinegar...

But after hearing this, Wan Chengyan quickly said: "Miss Qi misunderstood, just now I was in a hurry, and I had to get off... so I took a ride together..."

It was fine if she didn't explain, but when she explained, it became darker and darker, so that Xiaodong Xiaonan and the others looked at her even more unkindly.

Wan Chengyan knew that she had made a slip of the tongue, but considering her situation, she couldn't figure it out at all, so she could only give Hua Manlou a hard look, who was still smiling: Aren't you very good at speaking?Let me explain it!

Seeing this, Hua Manlou immediately cooperated with a smile and said, "Yes, we are a pure relationship between a man and a woman, so don't think about it!"

Hearing this, Wan Cheng Yanran almost couldn't help kicking him, but after Qi Wanrong heard the words, she didn't even know why she was so wronged all of a sudden, and she shed tears in an instant.

Hua Manlou originally wanted to make some jokes, but seeing this situation, he couldn't help being startled: "What happened all of a sudden?"

Who is Qi Wanrong?

It is not an exaggeration to say that she is a famous female bandit in the capital, the chief female tiger of Xishan, a nightmare in the eyes of factory guards, and the humanoid Pudu who hides from Shuntian Mansion and Wucheng Bingma Si, right?

But such a tough guy suddenly wept...

Tomorrow is the sky going to Purdue?

Wan Cheng Yanran, who was watching coldly from the sidelines, instantly understood. She looked at Hua Manlou with a stomachache on her face: Is this guy smart or stupid?And why did the Qi family miss such a bastard?

only……

Qi Wanrong wiped away her tears inexplicably, and then she looked horrified: "I am... what's wrong?"

Wan Cheng Yanran, who originally thought she understood, suddenly didn't understand again: This...which one is it?

Hua Manlou almost fell to the ground when he heard the words: "What's wrong with you?"

Qi Wanrong froze for a moment, then looked at Hua Manlou resentfully: "You are the only one who has problems... Stay away from me, I will be upset when I see you!"

Hua Manlou looked gloomy, then turned around and left: "Okay, let's deal with the White Lotus Sect's affairs first, you have something wrong today, I will talk to you slowly some other day."

Qi Wanrong snorted: "I'm too lazy to talk to you, I'm back to the capital!"

"In the middle of the night... are you going back to the capital?"

"I want you to take care of it!"

After yelling, Qi Wanrong turned around and ran away, and she didn't even bother to ride a horse... Or, she is completely upset now.

Xiaodong immediately led his men to chase after him, while Xiaonan looked at Huamanlou who was standing there, sighed and said, "Young Master, Missy is actually... Sigh! Anyway, treat her better in the future."

Hua Manlou was stunned: "Huh?"

Xiao Nan hesitated for a while, but in the end he didn't say anything, and turned to chase Qi Wanrong, leaving only Hua Manlou standing there in a daze: "Why is everything so weird today?"

195. Join me?OK, let's go

Qi Wanrong, who was running wildly, finally calmed down, and then she fell into a strange depression.

This kind of frustration is actually shared by most people, and even in retrospect, they can't help being embarrassed or grabbing the ground with their heads, or wanting to travel back and kill the self at that time.And this kind of thing will deepen the memory every time it is recalled, so the longer the time, the more embarrassing it will be-to sum it up in one sentence: the black history is unbearable...

All in all, the sturdy Qi Wanrong couldn't accept that she was crying like a woman in front of so many people, so that she was not in the mood to understand why she was wronged suddenly, but was so depressed that she almost had no face up.

Seeing this, Xiaodong and Xiaonan couldn't help but wry smiles: They knew Qi Wanrong too well, and this young lady would always fall into a period of depression of varying lengths at times like this—for example, when she was shocked in Shenji Camp. , it took her several days to recover from that incident.

Similarly, this time she suffered a bigger blow, so it is unknown how long she will have to recover.

Sighing, Xiaodong said: "The house that was inspected today is still guarded by people from Xishanwei, go and rest for one night, and return to Beijing tomorrow."

Xiao Nan nodded, and said depressedly: "How did things become like this?"

Xiaodong smiled wryly: "The fate has not yet come, probably."

Xiaonan was depressed: "It's not the two young masters. If they weren't too eager last time, how could my uncle be kidnapped by the White Lotus Sect?"

Xiaodong was taken aback for a moment, but then felt that there was nothing wrong with the logic: If the three members of the Qi family had acted together with Huamanlou at that time, how could Huamanlou be robbed by a group of thugs?And if there was no robbery, how could there be an inexplicable Wancheng Yanran beside Huamanlou?

"You don't say this after you go back to the mansion, lest the two young masters get beaten again." Xiaodong ordered, and stepped forward to appease Qi Wanrong.

Xiao Nan muttered in a low voice: "You should be beaten up, who made them so successful that they failed?"

At the same time, after Huamanlou was in a daze for a while, he realized that there was still work to be done, so he could only put Qi Wanrong's matter on hold for now-the so-called come and go is not indecent, since the White Lotus Sect has worked tirelessly He invited this wilderness, so it's okay for him to invite this group of people to visit the prison, right?

Wan Yanran sold the White Lotus Sect completely. According to her, apart from the manor and the secret place, the White Lotus Sect also has some secret hiding places in Tianjin Wei, as well as some relatively dangerous people. , For example: the deputy inspector of the inspection department, the prison director of the county government prison.

The inspection department is mainly for the arresting officers of the prefectures and counties, that is, the public security. The prison chiefs can be known as the wardens by name, and they are all low-level officials, but they are the ones who deal with the locals. It is not surprising that the White Lotus Sect chose to infiltrate these positions.

In addition, some well-known gentry joined the White Lotus Sect, and it was with the support of this group of people that the White Lotus Sect was able to have strong capital and the ability to infiltrate the government.

Hua Manlou couldn't help sighing: What are these people trying to do?According to the plot, those who follow the traitor are at least exiled by the whole family. If the rebellion is more serious, they may be copied and executed. So should it be said that the cult is harmful to people, or should it be said that this group of people has no brains?

Although I sighed, people still wanted to be arrested. Except for the team that was chasing Elder Niu and Wang Lianzu, Hua Manlou immediately went to Tianjin Wei to take people overnight—Xuanwu Wei has the right to arrest and interrogate them, and If Huamanlou knew about it but didn't take anyone, he would be in trouble...

Overnight, the result of the White Lotus Sect's painstaking efforts in Tianjin Wei for many years was uprooted overnight by Huamanlou. Those who should be inspected and arrested, except for the elder Niu who sent Wang Lianzu to chase and kill Huamanlou to escape into the deep mountains Apart from escaping, none of the other important figures escaped.

So judging from the results, the White Lotus Sect can be said to have tied a catastrophe back: they thought they could get enough power to threaten the imperial court, but no one thought that they would encounter a disaster overnight, and then they would be killed. Bigger blows await them, so...

I don't know if the leader of Bailian, who often pretends to be a fairy, counts that Bailian will have this calamity?

……

The next morning, Hua Manlou arrived in Tianjin.

Since ancient times, when Tianjin was not called Tianjin, it was an important military town, especially when the capital was the capital.

It has to be said that Tianjin Wei in this world is slightly different from Huamanlou's previous life.Tianjin in Ming Dynasty was named by Zhu Di, Emperor Chengzu of the Ming Dynasty, which means that the emperor passed by, and Tianjin Wei in Dazhao was named by Emperor Taizu Zhao, which means that the Tianjin of Shuntian is important.

But there are also the same places: at the beginning of the city's founding, Tianjin Wei was just an earthen city with a circumference of no more than nine miles, but because the land here was an important place for the Nine Rivers and Tianjin, the roads were connected to boats and vehicles in seven provinces, and the taxes and taxes of the Jianghuai River came from here, Yanzhao Yuyan From this, when the river and the sea are rushing, it is the gateway of Jifu, so the business of Tianjin Wei gradually prospered after the founding of the Great Zhao, and it began to show signs of taking down the military town, so that Da Zhao had to turn it into a city. county-level units.

The purpose of Hua Manlou's coming here is to stay here for a day or two, and take a look at Dagu, the gateway to Beijing and Tianjin, just because...

Emperor Guangxing told him about the Japanese pirates before, but judging from the several encounters with Emperor Guangxing, Hua Manlou was sure that this Uncle Zhao would never give up on this and let him go his own way. Japanese pirates.

Then in order to avoid going out to sea in such a hard way, didn't he have to come to this important coastal defense town to have a look?

Regardless of whether it has combat power or not, Da Zhao does have a navy in Tianjin, and there is also a shipyard.The so-called peeking at the leopard, Hua Manlou thinks that from these two places, the situation of naval battles and the performance of ships can be roughly calculated these years. Solve the problem, right?

But after Huamanlou entered the city, the first thing he saw was the black-faced Tianjin county magistrate and all the civil and military personnel from Tianjin Wei.

The magistrate's surname is Liu, and he looks like a greasy uncle in his forties. When he saw him coming to Huamanlou, he folded his hands and waited to say hello. crime?"

"...What the hell?" Hua Manlou was stunned, and said in astonishment, "Liu Zunfu, did you make a mistake?"

Liu Zhixian pointed at Huamanlou and shouted: "Arresting officials and squires for no reason, is this how you Xuanwuwei do things?"

Hua Manlou was stunned and said, "What did you say? My people are all from the White Lotus Sect..."

Before Huamanlou finished speaking, Liu Zhixian said angrily: "You said it was Bailian or Bailian? The Qin family in the east city is a well-known family of good deeds, and the Zhang family in the west of the city is also a scholarly family whose ancestors have been in the Hanlin. You don't ask You can take people indiscriminately, and I will definitely join you in the crime of dereliction of duty and abuse of power!"

Hua Manlou was stunned, and suddenly understood something, and then he couldn't help laughing: "Join me? All right, you go, it's best to dismiss me from office, and I have to thank you if I don't know." !"

(I was busy all day yesterday... let's read more today)

196. Hello, hello, hello, everyone

County magistrate Liu was almost blown away by Hua Manlou's words.

I have to say, to a certain extent, what Huamanlou did last night was indeed a little out of character.

It is true that Xuanwuwei has the right to apprehend and interrogate, and it can be said that Xuanwuwei is actually in charge of the entire Shuntian Mansion's arrest and robbery matters, including Daxing and Tongzhou, because the yamen simply can't keep up.

However, Tianjin Wei not only has an inspection department, but also Tianjin Sanwei and Xuanwuwei Tianjin Qianhu Office, so in theory, Huamanlou has to inform these yamen to arrest the leader of the cult—the so-called strong dragon does not suppress the local snake , and the so-called bridal sedan chair was carried by someone, and such a great contribution to suppressing Bailian is enough for everyone present to move their positions a little bit, so who do you think doesn't want to take a share?

But Huamanlou led his young soldiers and a group of violent craftsmen to take down everyone overnight, but left none of them in the local group, whether they got up early to see the country gentry or offenders All were arrested and sent to the county government, this...

Are you a little too picky about spending thousands?

What's more, for the county magistrate, it doesn't matter that the country gentry doesn't care, but there are two officials among the people who took it down, which is a bit troublesome.

The reason is very simple, you can only say that you were negligent if you came out of Bailian under the rule, but there are two Bailian sects in the official ranks, what do you do as a county magistrate?Maybe it's just a hat of dereliction of duty, and Liu Zhixian will inevitably lose Wu Sha, so do you think he can not be shamed?

But the problem is...

In fact, things can be changed a little bit, as long as Liu Zhixian's attitude is a little better, Huamanlou will naturally report this matter as "With the cooperation of the county magistrate's leadership and all parties in Tianjin Wei, the Xishan Thousand Households captured the number of White Lotus sect bandit leaders." Ten people', Guochao has always done this, so wouldn't it be beautiful to sleep at home and take credit for it?

But I said earlier that the civil servants of Dazhao basically hold an attitude of contempt or hostility towards the military officers. In addition, the civil servants are powerful, and officials who have always been Jinshi have never regarded any military officers in their eyes.

In addition, the magistrate of Tianjin did not take seriously the fact that the capital came to look for Huamanlou with a large-scale team—in other words, he thought that so many people came just because the White Lotus Sect robbed a fifth-rank military officer and slapped the court in the face. It's not because of the loss of Huamanlou.

Therefore, this arrogance and contempt made the magistrate of Tianjin hope to overwhelm the whole building, forcing him to admit his mistakes and hand over the credit for his achievements-Liu Zhixian has so many classmates of Yushi, this is his reserved capital, he thinks that Can handle this bratty boy.

So if Hua Manlou is an ordinary military officer, this matter is actually established, but...

Firstly, Huamanlou didn't take his official position seriously at all, and secondly, which one of the people he came into contact with every day didn't make the capital tremble when he sneezed, how could he be manipulated by a magistrate who didn't know the so-called?

Come three...

Hua Manlou is really the kind of person who says 'You respect me one foot and I respect you one foot', but if you are shameless, then everyone should tear their skins apart.

"you!"

Liu Zhixian didn't expect to be yelled at by Huamanlou in front of so many people. He pointed at Huamanlou for a long while but didn't say a word, trembling with anger.
