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

Hua Manlou breathed a sigh of relief, "Of course!"

As soon as the words came out of his mouth, Hua Manlou suddenly felt that something was not right...

74. Don't come here

"Since the firearms are fine, then... I heard that your new army is in a bad mood? How about this, transfer three to 500 people to the Shenji Camp tomorrow, and let me see how good the soldiers you have spent a lot of money on!"

After leaving this sentence, Emperor Guangxing waved his sleeves again and walked away.He didn't even bother to ask the specific situation of Huamanlou's new army now, anyway, no matter how bad it was...it couldn't be worse than the group of idiots in the [-] Battalion, right?

And just based on the reliability of the few things Huamanlou did before, this new army can't be too bad-impression flow is a very nonsense thing, who made Emperor Guangxing's favorability for Huamanlou explode? table, so of course she trusts him immensely.If he hadn't wanted to give Shenjiying a little excitement, Emperor Guangxing would have ordered Huamanlou's people to fight against Wala, so why bother to send people here first?

Watching Emperor Guangxing leave, Hua Manlou sighed at the gate: "Father, should I sew my mouth shut next time?"

Low mouth is really a kind of disease, it needs to be cured...

Uncle Huai'an opened his mouth, but in the end he was not willing to say that Huamanlou was not low-key and disrespected the precepts of his ancestors—after all, his son has become more promising now, so it's not like he had to worry about his ruining the family before, right?

So Uncle Huai'an just smiled and said: "It's not that exaggerated, it's good for young people to have some vigor."

Hua Manlou said sadly: "Look at this posture, Uncle Zhao wants to have a competition between the Shenji Camp and the New Army tomorrow, and then whoever wins will play and let whoever fights against Wala, right?"

The corners of Uncle Huai'an's mouth twitched. The title of Uncle Zhao really made him feel extremely pained, but Emperor Guangxing forbade anyone in the know to tell Huamanlou his identity, so how could Uncle Huai'an dare to say so?

After trying to block these three words, Uncle Huai'an said: "It must be, today... His Majesty went to the Three Thousand Battalion, and the group of idiots completely disappointed His Majesty. But the news that he will compete with the Wala people in three days has already spread Go out, someone has to go up, right?"

Hua Manlou became even more worried: "What's the matter? It's obviously Qi Wanrong's fault, why did it fall on my head?"

Uncle Huai'an hesitated for a moment, and asked, "With the youngsters you recruited, can they beat the Shenji Camp?"

Hua Manlou curled his lips: "If you use swords, three or four hundred people from the Shenji Camp can pick out my battalion, but firearms are no better than swords, and the newly installed firecrackers are enough for the Shenji Camp to drink a pot." It's gone...Anyway, father, you can see for yourself tomorrow."

This is true. Technological progress is crushed at different levels, and the young soldiers are more obedient and disciplined than the ruffian soldiers, and the training is even harder. Didn't Lou completely lose the face of the crossing people?

Uncle Huai'an patted Hua Manlou's shoulder with relief on his face: "Don't think too much, just do the things in front of you well first. My father told you that as long as you are in the circle that His Majesty assigned you jump in, then no one can do anything to you, and isn’t there still a father?”

Uncle Huai'an's words were extremely warm. Huamanlou never realized that Uncle Huai'an would speak so gently in the memory of his predecessor at all, but he didn't feel the warmth at all: He clearly wanted to follow the route of a literati, but why couldn't he break it off completely? come?And when he returned to Beijing, he asked Pu Zhenghao to impeach him so that he could leave Xuanwuwei. Why did things turn out like this?

In a trance, Hua Manlou realized one thing: the last time he met Qi Wanrong, he entered the Shenji Camp, which triggered a series of things that followed; but today, it seems that the situation is exactly the same, because he also met Qi Wanrong, which caused him to be like this. The road diverged again...

So it's all Qi Wanrong's fault!

Hua Manlou made up his mind to follow Peng Guang's example and hide from Qi Wanrong after seeing Qi Wanrong - can't afford to be provoked?

But... some things, he is destined to backfire...

……

Early the next morning.

Huamanlou, who had been busy for more than a month, woke up habitually early in the morning, but he didn't want to get up at all - it was a cold day, the bed was so warm, why did he have to get up to be cold?

Moreover, salted fish must have the son of salted fish. As a salted fish, what is it called to go to bed early and get up early?So Huamanlou closed his eyes contentedly, and planned to sleep until the next day.

It's just that before this thought came to an end, Qin'er's voice came from outside: "Master, are you awake?"

Hua Manlou tightly closed her eyes, pretending that she was still in a deep sleep.

With a creak, the door opened, and the sound of Qin'er's footsteps came: "Master, there is a guest here!"

Hua Manlou tried his best to keep his breathing long, and also brought a little snoring along the way.

As a salted fish, the skill of pretending to sleep is a must, especially for a little girl like Shang Qin'er who is a little stubborn. She has to pretend to sleep - I told her yesterday that I will wake up later today, why? Why can't you listen?

"Master..." Qin'er walked to Hua Manlou's bed helplessly, and gently pushed him: "Master, get up soon..."

This wake-up service is actually pretty good, where did Hua Manlou experience this in his previous life?And he has always thought that something like an alarm clock is the most inhumane thing for people who have trouble getting up and people with low blood sugar.

In other words, the morning call service of the girl in the anime is good, and occasionally there are some small benefits along the way... So when will Qin'er grow up?

After all, she is still too young now, and she feels a little guilty about receiving benefits...

"few……"

Just when Qin'er was going to continue to gently wake up the young master who had lost weight after working hard for the country and the people for more than a month, and when Huamanlou was going to play a game of not waking up with the little girl, there was a sudden rumor from outside. An excited voice came: "Huamanlou! Are you still sleeping? Do you know what day it is?"

Hearing this voice, Huamanlou turned over in horror: "Qi Wanrong? Is it Qi Wanrong? Who put this thing in the house?"

Qin'er smiled wryly and before she could speak, the door of Huamanlou's room was knocked open with a bang, but seeing Qi Wanrong strode in, she stomped her feet and said angrily, "What time are you still sleeping? Get up, get up!"

Qin'er quickly stood in front of Hua Manlou, and exclaimed, "Miss Qi, you...how did you come in here! This is the young master's bedroom..."

Qi Wanrong waved her hand indifferently: "What's so shameful about a man's bedroom? My brother's bedroom has been gone so long ago that I don't like it!"

Qin'er wanted to cry anxiously: "Brother Ling and Young Master are not the same..."

Qi Wanrong ignored Qin'er, waved her big hand and said cheerfully: "Come on, wait for Master Hua to dress!"

Huamanlou, who was already in horror, was even more horrified at this time——Qi Wanrong just finished speaking, and a crowd of people from southeast to northwest, Jia, B, C, D, etc. poured into the bedroom, holding new clothes, copper basins, tea cups, and even There is another one holding obscene clothes...

These days, what you wear inside is obscene clothing, because there are no underwear or big pants, and the innermost layer is just these things, so it is called obscene clothing...

The leader, Xiaodong, looked at Huamanlou with a smile: "Gu...cough, young master, get up now, the servant girl is here to help you change your clothes."

"Let me tell you, you... don't come here, I'll call someone if you come here..." Hua Manlou was so frightened that he didn't pay attention to Xiaodong's slip of the tongue: "Qi Wanrong counts me as convinced, I'm so special Is it okay to start now? Who provoked me?"

What a sin!

75. Looks like a brother

To be honest, Qi Wanrong came here for revenge.

Because yesterday she had been slugging for a long time, Huamanlou didn't agree to her action, but it was so easy to go home and look forward to seeing her father come on duty, pretending to be well-behaved and rubbing his back and shoulders. Emperor Xing gave Huamanlou an order, but...

In the end, she learned that Huamanlou's people would arrive at Shenji Camp tomorrow, how could Qi Wanrong be so angry?Angry but of course revenge is not it?

As for why he took revenge in this way, he had to ask a round-faced girl who almost made a slip of the tongue.

When returning home yesterday, Xiaodong tentatively said a few good things about Huamanlou, but at that time Qi Wanrong was not as angry as before, but even agreed a few words, so Xiaodong immediately hinted to the sisters to increase their efforts , to assist the eldest lady to fish back Huamanlou, the wealthy son-in-law.

It has to be said that Hua Manlou's favor with these maids is also very good.

I said earlier that the beauty of the female soldiers was influenced by Qi Wanrong, which is a bit of a problem, so the dandies who tried to get in touch with Qi Wanrong were all "dissuaded" by them in various ways-no matter how you say it, Duke Ying's mansion It's a top wealthy family, and there are more than one or two people who want to eat soft food. How come no one wants to marry Qi Wanrong and live a life of worry-free life?

These guys can't get into the eyes of the female soldiers, so they 'occasionally' decide to chat with these guys in the name of Qi Wanrong, and then...

Now you know where the source of Qi Wanrong's inability to get married came from?Since those guys who can't eat grapes and say grapes are sour spread bad things about her everywhere, as time goes by, Qi Wanrong is just no one cares about her.

The appearance of Huamanlou brightened the eyes of the female soldiers: needless to say what happened a few days ago, yesterday Huamanlou played a heroic rescue in disguise, not only pulling Qi Wanrong out of a deep hole, She also made a tough appearance and tossed the Oirats into disgrace, so the female soldiers who already had a good impression of Huamanlou were eager to match the two this time.

The only problem is that over the years, they have been very good at persuading them to leave, but they are very skillful in matching this matter, and after some calculations, they came up with such a bad idea called getting up - only the eldest lady in Ying Guogong's mansion is qualified to serve The master got up, so in the eyes of these girls who have been led astray, this matter is the exclusive right of the married lady, so the eldest lady must have it, and at the same time, it can also highlight the virtue of the eldest lady , why not do it?

Of course, on the surface, they had to fool Qi Wanrong, saying that this was disturbing people's dreams, and this matter would definitely make Hua Manlou very uncomfortable...

Judging from the final result, they achieved their goals: Hua Manlou, who was disturbed to clear her dream and wanted to interact with Qin'er, was really pissed off.

Although Huamanlouyi·Xiaoguo has a bunch of skinny horses at home, he also enjoys...ahem, and criticizes the decay and degeneration of feudal society, but imagination is always imagination, and reality and imagination are very different: When there were eighteen girls of different colors in the room, including Qin'er and Qi Wanrong, Hua Manlou didn't even dare to get out of the quilt...

In ancient times, there were Yegongs who were good dragons, and today there are beautiful girls and beautiful girls. Each has his own advantages and each has his own fears: How embarrassing is it for a group of girls to see him getting up early in the morning and setting up a tent?

In short, after a long commotion, the matter of getting up came to an end. Immediately, Hua Manlou walked in front with a dark face, Qi Wanrong walked aside with a contented and heartless smile, and the female soldiers walked together. Walking at the end with an embarrassed face, Shi Shi ran out of Huai'an uncle's mansion.

"There's no reason. Doesn't Young Master Hua like being woken up?" Xiaoqing frowned, looking in disbelief.

Xiaodong slapped her on the back of the head: "It's all your bad idea, if the matter between Missy and Young Master Hua turns out to be dirty, you'll be the one to see it!"

Xiao Nan sighed and said: "I said it earlier, but you just don't listen. Just like the eldest lady, do you think she is suitable to play the role of virtuous?"

Xiao He said indignantly: "Before the event, you are like a pig, but after the event, Zhuge Liang, I haven't heard you say this for a long time?"

Xiaodong glared at her: "Don't make any noise! ​​It's not too late to make up for it. Think about it now, is there any other way to make Missy and Young Master Hua more intimate?"

Xiao Ding weakly raised his hand: "Why do you want them to be intimate? Wouldn't it be good to just let the master go to Huai'an uncle's mansion to propose marriage?"

Xiaobei said contemptuously: "Pig brain, how can the woman come to propose marriage on her own? Even if the master has this intention, it's not good to just say it directly, otherwise, where will the Duke Ying's face be put?"

It has to be said that Xiao Bei hit the nail on the head: Duke Ying really wanted to blame others, but after thinking about it for so many days, he still didn't know how to say it—the woman should be more reserved these days of……

Xiao Nan then added: "And don't forget, the eldest lady is not a cheap lamp. If she doesn't have that kind of intention, then no one will say that she will marry, and there may be a scene of running away from marriage. When the time comes... ..."

Xiaodong said angrily: "Can you stop talking nonsense? What I want is a method! A method! Who wants you to make a long speech?"

Xiao Haidao: "How about the old way? Go find Playboy tomorrow, and talk to him..."

"Miss Chat doesn't like him?" Xiaodong raised the whip in his hand with a sullen face, intending to whip this bad idea to death.

Xiao Hai said angrily: "You won't say it the other way around? Tell me how much the eldest miss admires Playboy, how much she never forgets, how long it's been like three autumns since you don't see each other, can it be enough to talk about Playboy's heart?"

Xiao Nan grabbed her ear, pointed at the two people in front of her and said, "You call that admiration?"

The girls looked up, but they saw Qi Wanrong laughing and patting Hua Manlou on the back, as if Hua Manlou had said something to make her laugh again, the behavior of the two of them...

Looks like a brother.

"Uh..." Xiao Hai said stiffly: "This... this is also a kind of admiration, right..."

Xiaodong rubbed his aching head and said, "A bunch of trash..."

The female soldiers had nothing to do at this time, but Hua Manlou had nothing to do at this time: when he met Qi Wanrong, a guy who couldn't be beaten, scolded, hid at home and was blocked on the bed, he couldn't even be counted as a nine leak fish. What can be done?

Qi Wanrong, who had succeeded in her little revenge, was in an extremely good mood. She followed Huamanlou and asked cheerfully, "When will your man arrive?"

Hua Manlou looked depressed: "You didn't even know when to come and call me?"

Qi Wanrong smiled and said, "It doesn't matter if I ask you to do this, right? If you feel that your heart is not going well, shall I treat you to dinner?"

It has to be said that Qi Wanrong actually lived a very simple life, since she figured out the firearms thing, she had no objection to Hua Manlou, so he didn't take Hua Manlou's bad attitude to heart.

Hua Manlou was speechless for a while, but in the end he still couldn't bear to speak ill at each other, and finally could only say viciously: "Eat! If you don't eat, you are a grandson!"

Qi Wanrong said with a smile: "Let's go, where to eat?"

Hua ManLou was about to speak, but saw a beggar with disheveled hair, disheveled hair and almost ripped clothes, walking towards him.

Huamanlou couldn't bear it, and took out a few copper coins to pass to the beggar, but the other party paused when he saw Huamanlou, and then roared angrily: "Huamanlou! I will never die with you!"

Hua Manlou paused in the air with the hand he had already extended, and said in amazement, "No, who are you, big brother?"

76. The tenacious Pu Ji Shizhong

When he heard the roar of the person in front of him, Hua Manlou even tried hard to think back. He thought that since he came to this world, he seemed to have never hated anyone except the Wala people. Everyday, everyone loves flowers when they see flowers blooming. Maybe not. There will be some enemies, so...

Presumably this beggar who wants to fight with himself should be roughly the enemy of his predecessor?

But the beggar raised his head and laughed wildly when he heard the words, and then excitedly said: "Who am I? Who am I? I... I am the official of Li Ke, Zhongpu Zhenghao! Huamanlou, waiting for my official Impeach you!"

Taking a closer look, this beggar was indeed the Pu Zhenghao whom he had met a few days ago, so Huamanlou was immediately overjoyed: The reason for returning to Beijing is to impeach this guy!

But immediately after, Hua Manlou realized something was wrong, and after carefully looking at Pu Zhenghao, he couldn't help but said with difficulty: "Pu Ji's matter, you...are you going undercover in the Beggars' Gang?"

While talking, Hua Manlou's hand was still in the air, and in his hand were a few golden Zhao Tongbao...

"Pfft ha ha ha..." Qi Wanrong at the side originally thought that Hua Manlou's enemy had come to her and was planning to copy someone to help, but she couldn't help but burst out laughing when she heard this.

This smile made Pu Zhenghao even more angry: "Hua Manlou, you didn't expect that, did you? Not only did I not die, but I came back alive! Since I came back alive, your time of death is coming!"

Hua Manlou waved his hand to tell Qi Wanrong not to laugh so as not to irritate Pu Zhenghao who seemed excited, and then asked: "Master Pu, don't talk about life and death first, you have to talk little by little, and finally The important thing is, where have you been these days?"

Pu Zhenghao couldn't help but feel proud when he heard the words: "Your people didn't find me, did they? Did you disappoint?"

These words made Hua Manlou even more puzzled: "My person? Who is my person?"

Actually, there is a bit of a big misunderstanding here...

After Pu Zhenghao was rescued by the caravan that day, although he really didn't want to go with the caravan, after all, after falling ill, his limbs were weak and he couldn't even walk. How could he leave other people's care?And the head of the caravan is a real person with money in his hand, and he knows that Pu Zhenghao is an official, so in order to curry favor with him, he forcefully persuades him to stay.

Pu Zhenghao at this time was actually lucky.

And when Pu Zhenghao got better after two days, he thought about how he had to go back to Beijing, so that he could report Huamanlou's wolfish ambitions to His Majesty, so he politely declined the invitation from the head of the caravan to go to Liaodong for a few days and then returned together. Because of Beijing's kindness, he came to Kyoto alone.

Ran goose ...

Returning to Beijing costs money, right?But food and lodging is fine when accompanying the caravan, but taking money from other people touches Pu Zhenghao's bottom line - Qingliu are self-proclaimed moral models, how can they take money from people for no reason?The most important thing is that this matter is out of the question, because officials are very taboo to deal with businessmen.

In the end, after all, the boss of the caravan asked Pu Zhenghao to write an IOU and gave him five taels of silver...

These days, the purchasing power of silver is actually very strong. It is said that five taels of silver are enough for Pu Zhenghao to spend from Liaodong to Kyoto, but...
