    "Was old man Ao like this yesterday? Although my conscience is not very good, why do I feel a little bit of sympathy for him? No, if I want to overthrow Kang Mazi, my conscience must be darker than his, and my face must be darker.  Thicker than him! Sympathy, pity, morality, etc., go to death! Sympathy for the enemy is cruelty to oneself!"

    Thinking about this idea, Fatty Lu led a group of dog legs back to Wu Yingxiong's mansion when it was close to dusk. After entering the door to inquire, the servants of Wu Yingxiong's mansion said that Wu Yingxiong had already returned to the mansion and was talking to Lin Tianqing and others in the study, and said that he wanted Lu  Fatty can go there when he comes back.  Hearing this, Fatty Lu hurriedly asked Xiao Erlang, Liu Zhen and others to take Fang Shiyu back to the room to rest, while he asked the servants of Wu's mansion to lead the way and rushed to meet Wu Yingxiong's study.

    Entering Wu Yingxiong's study room, Wu Yingxiong was really chatting with Lin Tianqing and Lang Yanshu. Seeing Fatty Lu come in, Wu Yingxiong stopped Fatty Lu from saluting, and asked affectionately: "How is Master Lu doing in the capital today? I just heard that Fatty Lu came in."  It is said that when you went to report to the official department, you were made things difficult by the people in the official department, is it okay? Do you want me to come forward and intercede for you?"

    "Thank you, my son, for your concern. It's just a trivial matter." Fatty Lu said with a smile without restraint: "That Mr. Qian probably wants to show some filial piety, but it's a pity that I lost all my money when I was in Fujian. This time I came to the capital  It was still Prince Jingnan who rewarded some travel expenses, so he has no money to honor him, of course he is dissatisfied."

    "These bugs in the bureaucracy are indeed becoming more and more lawless." Lin Tianqing echoed: "A few months ago, Jackie Chan was promoted to the prefect of Hezhou and went to Beijing to receive the seal. He also had no money to send these brats away.  God, in the end Ao Zhongtang found out and lost his temper, and these people gave Yu Chenglong a seal." After finishing speaking, Lin Tianqing deliberately asked again: "Master Lu, how did you solve your problem in the end?"

    "It's also a blessing from Ao Zhongtang." Fatty Lu knew that Lin Tianqing was trying to test him on purpose, so he took the initiative to say: "After being rejected by Mr. Qian, the lower official originally planned to come back to ask the son for help.  The two hall officials arrived in time, came forward to stop them, and gave a lesson to Mr. Qian who asked for bribes. Ashha A Shangshu also brought the lower official to the mansion of Ao Zhongtang, and talked there again.  I know, it turns out that Ao Zhongtang's kindness is all due to Ao Zhongtang's kindness when Ah Shangshu takes care of the subordinates."

    "It's also my fault for being careless. I didn't consider that you are inconvenient, Mr. Lu." Wu Yingxiong took the conversation and said lightly: "How about it, Mr. Lu, you go to the counting room to pay five hundred taels of silver, and I will subsidize your father.  For yours, it¡¯s inconvenient if you don¡¯t have enough cash in the capital.¡±

    "Your Majesty, you are being polite. Your annual salary is only a few hundred taels. Those in humble positions dare to take your reward." Fatty Lu, whose standard annual salary is only forty-five taels, was polite, but he was cursing in his heart, "Stinger,  Iron rooster, the pocket money you get from your father a year is at least tens of thousands of taels, right? You only gave me such a little."

    "You don't need to refuse, you deserve it." Wu Yingxiong waved his hand, and asked casually: "After seeing Ao Zhongtang, what did Ao Zhongtang ask you?"

    "It was predicted by Mr. Lin. It really happened in Fujian." Fatty Lu also knew that Wu Yingxiong was deliberately testing him, so he explained in detail the process before and after he met Oboi. Even Oboi was going to use two  Fatty Lu also confessed that Huaiyan Fadao officials bribed him to betray Wu Sangui without reservation¡ªthere were too many people present at the time, even the maids and servants of the Ao Mansion, Fatty Lu did not dare to vouch for these people  Whether it will leak the secret, I feel that it is better to explain it openly and honestly than to conceal it and arouse the suspicion of Wu Sangui and his son in the future.

    "This fat man is pretty smart, he didn't play any tricks." Wu Yingxiong snorted coldly in his heart, and asked hypocritically, "Master Lu, Ao Zhongtang promised you to be the Lianghuai Salt Dharma Daoist, so you are not tempted at all?"

    "Returning to the son, it would be a lie to say that you can't be tempted. The two Huai salt methods are the most fat jobs in the world. If you take up any position, you will not have to worry about food and drink for three lifetimes." Fatty Lu smiled wryly, and then  Said: "But Lu really dare not forget where his roots are, let alone the three principles and five constant principles, loyalty, filial piety, benevolence and righteousness, so he declined Ao Zhongtang's kindness. Fortunately, Ao Zhongtang is a broad-minded person, and he was not angry.  That's how Lu came back."

    "Very well, I will report this matter to my father truthfully." Wu Yingxiong nodded in satisfaction, and then said: "Actually, I understand what Ao Zhongtang is thinking. He really doesn't have much ill intentions for our Pingxi Palace.  In addition to appreciating your ability and loyalty, there is also the fact that you don¡¯t want the court¡¯s military pay to be too large. But his old man also underestimated our Pingxi Palace on this point. The father¡¯s request for an increase in military pay is indeed just for the soldiers of Yunnan and Guizhou.  increase by one?Take him to betray Wu Sangui and threaten him, all these problems can be easily solved.

    After bowing his head and thinking for a long time, Fatty Lu raised his head and whispered in Lin Tianqing's ear: "Lord Lin, I can introduce you to Ao Zhongtang for you, and I can even use some special relationships to help you, Lord Lin, in front of the emperor, but  There is one condition for being humble."

    "Lord Lu, can you still get through with the emperor?" Lin Tianqing said pleasantly: "Master Lu, please tell me that as long as I can be the governor of Yunnan, I can promise you anything."

    "The only condition for a humble job is." Fatty Lu said word by word: "Master Lin, in front of the emperor and Oboi, you must say that the minimum salary of Prince Pingxi is 3.5 million taels of silver!"

    "Three and a half million taels?!" Lin Tianqing was taken aback, and exclaimed in a low voice: "Isn't this one million taels higher than the number reported by the son, will the emperor and Ao Zhongtang agree?"

    "I will agree, I will definitely agree." Fatty Lu said confidently: "As long as Mr. Lin, you do as the humble post says, I am at least 80% sure to help you take down the official position of governor of Yunnan."

    "Really?" Lin Tianqing was skeptical, and was about to ask, when the coachman outside the car suddenly said: "Master in the car, the South Church you mentioned has arrived."

    "Master Lin, if you believe me, just do as I say, otherwise I really have nothing to do." Fatty Lu said in a low voice, "Let's go, let's go to see Mr. Nan Huairen first, you can consider  Talk about it in a day or two."

    After all, Fatty Lu opened the curtain and got out of the carriage, but when he jumped into the carriage carefully, Fatty Lu was stunned¡ªin front of the baroque cathedral, Li Xu, who had been raped by him once, led a few people in casual clothes.  A young man is guarding the door of the church with his hands behind his back.  Seeing Fatty Lu get out of the car, Li Xu was also taken aback, and immediately glared at Fatty Lu again.

    "No way? Such a coincidence? Could it be that he is also in this church?" (Remember the website URL: www.hlnovel.com
