The Reborn Duke of Ming Dynasty

"My lord, what are we going to do now?" Seeing that Zhang Fan was silent after finishing his question, Wang Meng couldn't help asking, "Although I can't think of what to do right now, can we just do it this way?" sit and do nothing,"

"Right now, we can only sit still," Zhang Fan said with a sigh, "There is really nothing else we can do. We have already done what needs to be done, and the rest depends on Liang Chao's good fortune, and It's Feng Bao's people, will they be in bad luck?"

Hearing Zhang Fan's words, Wang Meng was silent for a while. What Zhang Fan said was not wrong at all. I still want to use my strength, but there is no place to use it. Now, I can only hope that Liang Chao will be safe and complete the task.

This is the case.

"Where are you going now, my lord?" Wang Meng couldn't help asking, after all, Zhang Fan had asked him to tell his family that he would not go back at noon.

"Go home," Zhang Fan said, "I suddenly thought of something, I want to go back and talk to my family."

After listening to Zhang Fan's instructions, Wang Meng didn't say much, got on his horse with Zhang Fan, and headed towards Zhang's residence.

As soon as he got out of the Forbidden City, Zhang Fan turned his head and said to Wang Meng, "We Weizhong, how many of those captured rivers, lakes and green forests are being locked up now?"

"The number is not large." Wang Meng didn't know why Zhang Fan asked about this matter, but he also knew that Zhang Fan would not be aimless, and he would naturally tell him why in the end, so he immediately replied, "There are many people. If you commit a minor crime, but the imperial court refuses to forgive you, most of them choose to join us. Although what we do here are all dangerous things below, and it is not as beautiful as before, but at least It is possible to save their lives. Of course, there are some people who want to escape, but there are not many successful ones. The people who were killed were either those who were stubborn and would not let go, but there are really not many such people, and there are only a few hundred people in all parts of the country."

"Well," nodded, Zhang Fan said he understood, and continued to ask, "What about those near the capital, including the capital, Shandong, Shanxi, Henan and Hebei, how many people are being imprisoned?"

"There are about a hundred people." Although Wang Meng didn't know what Zhang Fan was going to do, his words indicated that Zhang Fan would definitely use these people. , are strictly guarded, and they will never escape, and those who refuse to let go, most of them robbed something or something we want to know, so they also have to be interrogated here. Therefore, around the capital, this kind of Dangerous' has the most prisoners,"

"That's fine," Zhang Fan nodded, and said, "You seem to be familiar with these people. After you return to the yamen, you'll get the files of these people and look carefully. Choose a hundred of them who are capable. But after we let them out, those who can still be controlled, transfer all these people to the capital, I am useful, "

"I understand," Wang Meng nodded, but this time he didn't intend to remain silent, and continued to ask, "I would like to ask, what do you want these people to do? These people are busy, although we also have With their handles in their hands, even if they let them out, they won't be afraid of making any big troubles, but if they want them to be useful, then that's not necessarily the case. If these people continue to be locked up in the yamen, They will not be released in the future, but even if they go out now, they will feel that even if they complete what we have told them, they will still be caught by us, and it may be more difficult for them to complete what they have done."

"I understand this," Zhang Fan said, "so we can tell them that if we can finish it, we will let them regain their freedom. As long as they don't do anything wrong in the future, then we won't arrest them anymore."

"This..." Hearing what Zhang Fan said, Wang Meng was stunned for a moment, but he immediately came back to his senses and asked, "Are you serious about what your lord said, or are you just using it to deceive those people? "

"Of course it's serious," Zhang Fan said without the slightest hesitation, "If these people succeed, first of all, it will definitely be a great thing for us. We really can't do without thanking them. Second, Well, if they want to accomplish this, they will definitely have to pay a huge price. It is certain that there will be heavy casualties, and it is not certain how many people will come back. There is a reason to go back."

Hearing Zhang Fan's words, Wang Meng couldn't help being silent. He didn't have any complaints about Zhang Fan's actions. In fact, although the person who taught him martial arts was also from the Jianghu, he had never been in the Jianghu. However, all Wang Meng's opinions are for the court.

Of course, if he was born in the rivers and lakes, I am afraid that he would not care about these things even more. Even people who have no grievances or enmity and have never heard of things in the rivers and lakes will not wish the other party a better life. It's the enemy when it arrives, it's better to let the other party die early.

only……

"My lord, please forgive me for being humble and curious," Wang Meng said. "What exactly does your lord want these people to do? It sounds like a very tricky thing. Is it okay to photograph these people?" Wang Meng didn't intend to volunteer or anything. Well, it is a good thing if you don't need your own people for such a thing that will definitely kill people, but if you don't use your own people for such a difficult matter, you are worried that it will not be done, which will ruin the big event.

"Now is not the time to bargain," Zhang Fan said, "We must use these people. You want to know what it is, but remember what you said to me when you came with me this morning,"

"The humble officer said it," Wang Meng understood after thinking for a while, and immediately his expression changed, "Your Excellency is talking about things in the Northeast." At this moment, Wang Meng's face was indeed filled with She looked surprised, but whether it was joy or worry was not certain.

"That's right, it's the northeast side," Zhang Fan nodded, and said, "When I was with His Majesty in the palace today, I didn't intend to bring up this matter, but Your Majesty did. Your Majesty said that Nurhachi A letter came and told His Majesty what happened there, although Nurhachi is now beside Li Chengliang, he must not know what Wang Gao is doing at this time, but I still told His Majesty about it."

"Thinking about it, His Majesty must be very concerned about the affairs of the Northeast." What happened next, Zhang Fan didn't need to say anything, Wang Meng also understood, after all, he also knew the relationship between Zhu Yijun and Nurhachi, it was impossible for Zhu Yijun not to care about him safety.

"That's right," Zhang Fan nodded and said, "His Majesty is very concerned about the Northeast today, especially because the Nurhachi people are there.

"After listening to what I said, Your Majesty was very worried, so I thought of this method. First, it relieved His Majesty's worries. Second, doing so is indeed beneficial to us,"

"My lord is right, but..." Wang Meng also agreed with Zhang Fan's words, but obviously, he still couldn't figure it out, "Why did your lord say that this matter must be done by these people? Putting it on these people is really disturbing. If they succeed, it’s okay to say, but if they don’t succeed, there will be big troubles, "

"Of course I've thought about this," Zhang Fan said with a sigh, "but I've thought about it carefully, this matter is quite tricky, even if we shoot our people, I'm afraid it's the same as letting them go, it may not be the same as letting them go." Success, not to mention, if our people, in order to complete the mission, they will definitely die a lot, which is too uneconomical.

"The most important point is that this matter must be let them go. If our people go, if something happens, it will be too much trouble,"

"An accident, what will happen?" Obviously, Wang Meng didn't think so far, "Even if our people fail, at most let it go, or send a group of people, but no matter what, our people will hold back Wang Meng." Gao's footsteps are momentary, how can it be troublesome?"

"The trouble I'm talking about doesn't refer to Wang Gao's side," Zhang Fan said, "Actually, the reason to shoot these people is just to help Nurhachi for His Majesty, and there is no other reason, but if you go, If it is revealed that it is one of us, there will be endless troubles."

"This..." Wang Meng is still not sure, but Wang Meng is also a little grateful in his heart. Although Zhang Fan said that he wants to deal with this matter this time, it is mostly because of Zhu Yijun, but Wang Meng is sure that Zhang Fan also has something in his heart. Do yourself a favor.

"Think about the situation in Northeast China today," Zhang Fan said.

"Northeast," Wang Meng blurted out without hesitation, "Wang Gao conspired to rebel, and the whole world knows it, but the imperial court has no evidence, so they can't act first. Now Wang Gao is also stepping up preparations, and the northeast is guarded by General Li Chengliang. I want to come... ah... ..." When he said the word Li Chengliang, Wang Meng also came to his senses and let out a soft cry.

"That's right," Zhang Fan nodded and said, "It is precisely because we are worried about Li Chengliang that we can't use our own people. If Li Chengliang finds out, he will definitely feel that the court doesn't trust him, and he is not a Han Chinese at all. , if you have this thought in your heart, I am afraid that countless variables will arise, just to prevent the occurrence of variables, this matter cannot be used by our people, and the people who go there must not have anything to do with the court."
