Being a Lady of an Influential Family: 537, Private Agreement!


"Master Wei? Why are you here?" The person standing not far behind them watching a good show was none other than the head of the guard, Xiuwei.

Changxiu Wei strolled over shaking the folding fan in his hand and said with a smile, "I heard that the two of you are here to participate in the Lantern Festival, so I came here to look for you. You two are so interested that you still have the time to come out and play. "

Fu Fengcheng frowned slightly and glanced at Wei Changxiu without speaking. This is not the place to talk about business. Looking at Wei Changxiu's appearance, there must be nothing urgent.

Leng Sa obviously understands this, and just asked curiously, "Why can't we go out after I pick up the light?"

Chang Xiu pointed to the men and women passing by and said with a smile, "When you pick up the light, it means that you have agreed to marry someone. Even if you want to go back, your parents will have to give reasons in person. Otherwise... you Then you can see what is called the sturdy folk customs in southern Xinjiang."

"..." Leng Sa was speechless for a while, and suddenly remembered the look of the young man looking at him with shyness and anticipation. It took a while before he said, "Is there such a rule? No one told us."

Chief Guard Xiu raised his eyebrows and said, "Southern Xinjiang has a tradition of robbing relatives since ancient times. Although they do not rob relatives casually these days, they generally do not tell outsiders about the customs and rules of the Lantern Festival. If someone picks up the young man's lantern or the little girl's flower but refuses to marry, the whole lantern festival will attack him. Especially... young lady, you still have a hand tied representing an unmarried girl. Where are the flowers."

Leng Sa followed Chang Wei's gaze and looked at his left wrist, which was tied with a wreath of several colored flowers.

Leng Sa couldn't help but had a black line on his face, and quickly reached out and took it off, "This is from the store when I bought the clothes. I think many girls have it."

Wei Changxiu looked at her sympathetically, "They are all here for a blind date. Did the shop owner encourage Fu Fengcheng to buy lamps?"

"..." When they entered the town, they saw that there were many lights in the venue, and they looked better than the ones in the town store. Fu Fengcheng also felt troublesome and didn't want it.

Seeing that Leng Sa wanted to throw the garland away, Fu Fengcheng took her hand and took the garland into his own. Then he pulled Leng Sa to the side and picked out a beautiful lantern and put it in her hand.

The effect of this operation is immediate, and soon the eyes that look at them are much less, and even if there are still eyes, most of them are simply appreciating beauty.

"..." Dang Wei was stunned, and after a while, he slowly gave a thumbs up to Master Fu.

Leng Sa is holding a small and exquisite lantern in her hand, and finally has the time to care about Changxiu, "After speaking, is the head of Wei still single? Do you want to take this opportunity... Maybe you can find a good match? ?"

Chief Guard Xiu covered half of his face with a fan and refused with a smile, "Forget it, I am a lonely man."

Leng Sa said with a smile, "I can't say that. They all say that southern Xinjiang women are gentle and affectionate. Maybe they are the type that Wei Dang's family likes?"

Master Wei glanced at Fu Fengcheng helplessly: Can you still manage your daughter-in-law?

Fu Dashao expresses his inability with his actions. He is lowering his head and playing with the garland in his hand very seriously.

Headmaster Wei felt desperate, it's better to have this cousin!

The Lantern Festival will last until late at night, but Leng Sa and the others just came to join in the fun, so they left before nine o'clock in the evening.

Chief Guard Xiu originally made a special trip to find Fu Fengcheng to join in the fun, so he naturally followed.

Leng Sa and Fu Fengcheng came on horseback, but Changxiu came by car. There is no comfort in driving on such a country road, so Leng Sa and Fu Fengcheng rode one horse, and gave the other to Wei Changxiu, and only let Wei Changxiu's assistant drive the car back.

At night, the country breeze is blowing, and the night is far and wide, and the sound is quiet, except for the sound of insects from time to time on the roadside.

Leng Sa asked curiously, "Why did the Wei family come to the southern border now?"

Chairman Wei glanced at the two of them with some disgust and said, "Is it because I want to come? Ask your Master Fu."

Leng Sa slightly turned her head and looked up at Fu Fengcheng, who was sitting behind him. Fu Fengcheng said, "Nile."

"Huh? Headmaster Wei is going to Nile?" Chief Wei nodded and said, "No."

Leng Sa said, "However, there should be many people who know that you have a good relationship with the Fu family. Neither King Nile nor Sanha will believe you, right?"

Chief Guard Xiu smiled and said, "Of course they won't believe me, so I'm not going to see them either."

Leng Sa looked at him with a look of listening intently.

Chief Guard Xiu said with a smile, "Although I am from Anxia, ​​I still have some property and friends in Nile. I think Sanha should be quite short of money and materials now."

"..." Leng Sa was silent for a long time before slowly saying, "Excuse me to be blunt, I think you are... quite immoral." When others treat you as a friend, you send your friend into the fire pit?

Chairman Wei looked at Leng Sa in shock, as if very hurt, "Young madam, is that what you think of me?"

Leng Sa blinked and didn't speak, but Changxiu said innocently, "They chose Sanha by themselves, I'm just going to discuss business and help them solve some practical problems. What's wrong with not selling fakes?"

Leng Sa asked: "For example?"

The chief guard said, "For example, they are now short of food, weapons and medicines. I am a businessman."

"Food, weapons, medicines, are they strategic military supplies during wartime?" Leng Sa said.

The chief guard said, "Ask your eldest son, I'm just on orders. Also...I imported it, okay? I didn't ship a grain of rice from Anxia."

Leng Sa is completely overwhelmed, and the master of Wei really has a lot of energy that should not be underestimated.

Fu Fengcheng wrapped his arms around Leng Sa's waist forward, and both hands held her left hand, which was slightly cold in the night wind, "Don't worry, Sanha is a smart person, he will withdraw his troops soon. "

Leng Sa was a little surprised, "Can't fight?"

Fu Fengcheng said, "Of course we still have to fight two battles, but it shouldn't take long. The specifics will depend on how Wei Changxiu and Xiao Sanye are doing in Nile."

Leng Sa didn't speak for a long time, she finally understood why many people praised Fu Fengcheng as a genius. It's not just because he can read, maybe what he is better at than fighting is actually this kind of game between various forces, a natural hero.

Back to the station, Fu Fengcheng had a secret conversation with Chief Guard Xiu all night. The next morning before dawn, Chief Guard Xiu disappeared from the army again, as if he had never been here.

The situation on the other side of the river became more and more tense. The most important eldest son was arrested, the third son disappeared, and the king demanded that he surrender his military power and return to the country immediately. Although his deputy is also someone he trusts, Sanha still doesn't dare to let go of power easily.

Because he knew in his heart that if he went back to Nile alone like this, then there would definitely be royal guards and prisons waiting for him.

But there are still a lot of Royal Guards and other legions in the West Bank. If he and the Seventeenth Legion dare to do anything rashly, before he returns home, the news of the Seventeenth Legion's rebellion will spread. Everyone knows.

Sangha even considered occupying land directly in Anxia and not returning to the country, but he quickly gave up this delusion.

Because of this, the entire family in his country and the families of his generals are bound to suffer annihilation. Not only that, he will also face the dual pressure of Anxia and Nile as enemies on both sides. After a long time, the soldiers of the Seventeenth Legion will inevitably miss their hometown and have dissent and complaints, and the people of the southern border will never be on their side in a short time.

Therefore, this road is just a thought, and it can never be realized.

San-ha has discussed with his confidants many times, but has never been able to come up with a solution that is the best of both worlds. Seeing that the time could no longer be delayed, the king had ordered three consecutive orders for him to return to the country immediately, one of which was more severe than the other, and the consequences would be unimaginable if he remained unmoved.

Sitting silently in the tent all night, Sanhachi made up his mind with red eyes before dawn.

He wrote a letter, summoned his most trusted bodyguard, and instructed him to send the letter to Fu Fengcheng at the Anxia army station on the other side of the river.

Fu Fengcheng was not surprised to receive Sanha's letter, so he calmly picked up a pen and wrote a reply letter to the messenger for him to take back to Sanha.

The person who sent the letter coldly walked out from the back, and asked curiously, "Sangha will actually agree to cooperate with you?"

Fu Fengcheng said, "He has no other choice. Now whether he goes back or not, he will be dead. The difference is only early death and late death. Since he doesn't want to die, he can only let others die."

Leng Sa sat down beside Fu Fengcheng, leaned on his shoulder and sighed lightly, "It's still quite embarrassing, the king of a dignified country used this method to murder his generals, isn't King Nero afraid of his men's chills?"

Fu Fengcheng said, "The Seventeenth Legion owns a quarter of the Nile's army, but it takes up nearly half of the annual cost. If the wartime resources are skewed, it makes sense. In fact, the Nile has not been in for 20 years. The external battle is over. Other legions have long been dissatisfied with the Seventeenth Legion. This time the Guards and several other legions were defeated in Anxia, ​​and these people may not blame the Seventeenth Legion. "

You take all the cost, what else can we use for training and equipment? So we lost to the Anxia people not because we couldn't, but because the Seventeenth Legion seized our resources, and it was all because of the Seventeenth Legion's fault.

Leng Sa was also a little surprised, "So powerful?"

Fu Fengcheng said, "The royal family restricts the expansion of the Seventeenth Legion, but the cost has been increasing every year for the past ten years. What does Madam think they are for?"

Leng Sa pondered for a while, "The Nile Royal Family is to completely cut the Seventeenth Legion and other Nile armies apart?"

Fu Fengcheng nodded and said, "Yes, Sanha may not want to have a good relationship with other legions, but with this level of conflict of interest, no matter how good he is, it is useless. And he can't take the initiative to express his willingness to share his share. Let it go, because then the people of the Seventeenth Legion will oppose him first. And...the Nile royal family secretly subsidizes part of the other legions every year, if the lady is the leader of the other legions, what would you think?"

Leng Sa said: "The Legion of Glory has forcibly removed most of the quota based on its past honor, prestige and power. The royal family has no choice but to take money from its own private treasury to fill the loophole."

Leng Sa couldn't help but took a deep breath and said in a low voice, "This King Nile is also a ruthless character." The layout started ten years ago. Ha fattened up.

Leng Sa came with some interest, "Are you going to help Sanha win the throne?"

Fu Fengcheng shook his head and said, "No, it's up to the Nile people to be the king. I just want the Nile people to withdraw their troops and restore peace in Anxia."

Leng Sa blinked, "Then you asked Third Master Xiao to help King Nile, and then asked Chief Guard Xiu to help Sanha's supporters?" Once Sanha returned with Nile's most elite legion Domestically, what will happen to the Nile at that time... I dare not think about it, I dare not think about it.

I couldn't help but looked up at Fu Fengcheng, and sighed coldly, "Young Master Fu, fortunately I didn't mess with you at the beginning." With such a ruthless character, Master Leng had to admit that he really couldn't afford to offend you. what.

A faint smile appeared on Fu Fengcheng's lips, and he reached out and fiddled with her hair, "Even if Madam provokes me, I won't be angry."

"..." This is hard to say, as if you were in love with me at first sight.

One month dark and windy night, in a hidden place somewhere along the middle and lower reaches of the Ruohe River, a small boat came to the shore quietly.

Three people got off the boat and were led all the way to a riverside hut not far away by the people who had been waiting for a long time.

Open the door and go in. There is a light in the small room. Sanha is sitting under the light and contemplating solemnly. He raised his head when he heard the sound of the door being pushed, and saw three young men and women standing at the door.

Sang Ha's eyes fell on Fu Fengcheng who was walking in the front, and after a while he looked at Leng Sa who was standing beside Fu Fengcheng. As for Xu Shaoming, he was completely ignored by him.

"General Fu, it's nice to meet you." Sanha's An Xia language has a strange accent, but it's not difficult to understand.

Fu Fengcheng nodded slightly, "General Sanha, it's a pleasure to meet you."

The expression on San Ha's face was a bit complicated, "I met Ling Zun once in the early years. You An Xia have a saying that tiger fathers have no dogs sons. Sure enough...the reputation is well-deserved."

Fu Fengcheng said, "General Muzan, this is my wife."

Sang Ha then looked at Leng Sa and said, "Mrs. Fu Shao, I have long admired your name."

Leng Sa smiled at Sangha, "General Sangha is polite, I am the name of the long-awaited general."

After a little courtesy with each other, they finally took their seats. Xu Shaoming closed the door from the outside. The small room suddenly became very crowded with two more people, and Sang Ha said no more politely, "I didn't expect that General Fu would really dare to bring only two people across the river, and even bring his wife. Don't you Anxia people say that a gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall?"

Fu Fengcheng said, "I didn't expect that General Sanha would dare to see me here alone."

The implication is that no matter how many people you hide outside, it will be enough to kill you before I get beaten to death.

Leng Sa seemed a little curious, "General Sanha, if you die here with us, will King Nile spare Linglang and the Legion of Glory?"

Seeing that Fu Fengcheng didn't say anything because Leng Sa interjected at will, Sang Ha knew that this was not just what Leng Sa wanted to ask, but also what Fu Fengcheng wanted to say.

Sighing lightly, Sanha said, "Forget it, since General Fu is here in person, he must be sincere, so we don't need to test each other."

"General Sanha is right." Fu Fengcheng said.

Sang Ha stared at Fu Fengcheng and said solemnly, "What does General Fu want to cooperate with me?"

Fu Fengcheng said, "I don't want anything, as long as the Nile people withdraw from Anxia. General Sanha should know that the northwest of Anxia is also fighting, and now I don't want to entangle with the Nile people any more."

"Just like that?" Sanha obviously still doesn't quite believe what Fu Fengcheng said.

Fu Fengcheng said mercilessly, "Nile is nothing compared to Da Yin."

Sang Ha was speechless for a moment. Although Fu Fengcheng's words were not polite, he was right. There is no comparison between Nile and Da Yin in terms of national strength.

If both sides really open the endless fight, Da Yin and An Xia may be able to fight 55 to 5, but it is almost impossible for Nile to defeat the An Xia people.

This time, it just happened to be a meeting, so I saw the opportunity and wanted to bite a piece of meat from An Xia. Even so, the current situation proves the disparity in strength between the two sides. You must know that they are not facing the power of An Xia, most of An Xia's main forces are now in the northwest.

Moreover, the Jiazhou Rebellion and Sun Liang's Rebellion reduced some of Anxia's strength. However, even so, Nile still seems to have no obvious chance of winning.

San Ha did not get angry, but said, "If that's the case, why should General Fu worry?"

Fu Fengcheng said, "It would be best if the war could end one day earlier. The southwest is not the place in the six southern provinces."

Sangha instantly understood that the southwest was not the place of the six southern provinces, and the Fu family was not willing to waste too many troops in the southwest. After all, Anxia is in fact still in a state of being torn apart, and no one knows what will happen in the future. If the Fu family wanted to preserve their strength, they had to drive away the Nile people. It was indeed the best choice to cooperate with him.

Sangha said: "It's okay to withdraw, but I want to bring back all the soldiers of the Seventeenth Army. If the Guards and other soldiers find and block... I'm afraid I don't want to fight with the Anxia army. ."

Fu Fengcheng is also very straightforward, "General Sanha can send them to Yingzhou."

Sang Ha was startled, frowned and said, "Yingzhou has troops stationed, how can they be willing to go?"

Fu Fengcheng glanced at him meaningfully and said, "Because, two days later... 50,000 elite soldiers from the four northern provinces will land from Yingzhou, and at the same time, Yue Du's army will also send 50,000 soldiers and horses to cross Ruohe from the east. Downstream and then south to Yingzhou to meet.”

Sang Ha's face changed slightly, "Major General Fu told me such important news, are you not afraid that I will go back on it?"

Fu Fengcheng said, "If General Sanha wants to go back, he won't come to see me tonight, will he?"

Leng Sa sat quietly on the side, just holding the tea cup in his hand but not drinking, but staring at the water in the cup in a daze.

The troops of the Long family did not land in two days, but landed tonight, but the landing location was not Yingzhou Port, and the troops and horses that the Yue family had joined together with Yao Guan yesterday.

Sang Ha was silent, Fu Fengcheng was not in a hurry, the room fell into a terrible silence.

After an unknown amount of time, Sanha finally took a deep breath and said, "Okay, I can agree to General Fu's conditions, but General Fu..."

Fu Fengcheng said lightly, "Our army will naturally abide by the agreement with General Sanha. As long as the Legion of Glory withdraws from Anxia, ​​our army promises to never pursue or cross the border."

Looking at Sangha, Fu Fengcheng emphasized again, "General Sangha, Anxia's demands are only one point. To ensure the integrity and peace of the southern border, and currently have no interest in the internal affairs of other countries."

"Okay! Deal!" Sanha stood up and said solemnly.

Fu Fengcheng and Leng Sa also stood up, Fu Fengcheng said lightly, "Thank you, General Sanha, for understanding the righteousness and bringing peace to our two countries."

Although it was only a private negotiation between Fu Fengcheng and San Ha, the two sides signed the agreement quite formally, which was also to ensure that the two parties would not easily break the contract.

Although it is said that a contract will be destroyed if it is to be destroyed, it is written in black and white after all, and it will not be good for the reputation of both parties if it spreads out.

The two sides fought fiercely on the battlefield, but the commander signed an agreement in private without the authorization of the king and the cabinet, which was a lot of trouble.

After thinking about it again and again, they felt that there was no problem. After they signed and exchanged the agreement, Fu Fengcheng left and returned to the other side. Sanha also got up and returned to the army.

They all know that the whole Southwest and even the Nile will be different after dawn.
