"Brother...!" The cry of brother was so sad that Li Xiao almost didn't have the courage to look back.

Li Xiao was even willing to face the fierce charge of the Eight Banners soldiers, but was not willing to face these pitiful big eyes.

When I came back this time, I only stayed for a short half-month. During that half-month, I was busy with the rocket launchers from time to time with Yulao and Daofumi. The time I spent with Xiaoyu was very short, which made Li Xiao

My sister is full of guilt.

Xiaoyu hugged Li Xiao's thigh and said nothing. She fanned her big eyes and tears came out like spring water.

I really wanted to harden my heart and take Xiaoyu to Shanhaiguan. But I swallowed the words hard. God knows how many spies there are in Shanhaiguan. If any force wants to attack me and turns to Xiaoyu, then I

Are you still alive?

"Xiaoyu, be good, big brother is going to do something. Second brother will buy you anything you want. How about the stuffed bear from last time? Second brother will ask someone to get another one for you." Li Xiu came over to pull his sister, but Xiaoyu hugged Li tightly.

The owl's thighs refused to let go.

"Xiaoyu! Third brother was in Macau last time and saw a big white cat with blue eyes. It's very beautiful. Xiaoyu, be obedient. Third brother will get one for you." Li Hu held hands beside him, not daring to move his paws.

.If he really hurt Xiaoyu, Li Xiao would have to throw him into the sea.

"I don't want a big white cat, I want a big brother. Big brother, please don't leave, okay? Xiaoyu will be obedient and write ten big words every day." In order to keep Li Xiao, Xiaoyu immediately offered her the highest price.

Veins popped up in his temples. Li Xiao felt that facing Nurhachi's tens of thousands of troops was not as difficult as this time.

Finally, Sister Qiao rushed over, holding Xiaoyu's hand and whispering coaxing. After getting on the boat, Li Xiao plunged his head into the cabin without showing his head. He really didn't want to see Xiaoyu's big eyes that were swollen from crying!

"Fucking beggars, I will tear you into pieces." Li Xiao gritted his teeth and planned to stay on Changxing Island for two months and not go to Juehua Island until autumn. But now, he had to go to the capital again.

If an ordinary general-in-chief wants to enter the capital, the emperor must issue an order. But this refers to ordinary general-in-chief, and Li Xiao is naturally not one of them.

Because ordinary soldiers are not qualified to do business with the emperor, and they have no money to replace the windows in the emperor's house with expensive glass windows. They also have no ability to get a huge dressing mirror for His Majesty the Emperor from a distant place.

.

Li Xiao has accomplished all these things, and what makes other commander-in-chiefs even more unmatched is that his business also includes the shares of Nine Thousand Years Old, as well as the shares of all the adults in the capital.

Therefore, Li Xiao came to Beijing without an order, and even the imperial censor was too lazy to answer. It is probably useless to answer. After all, the emperor is usually very busy and has little time to read those annoying memorials. In order to allow the emperor to eat, drink and have fun in a timely and effective manner, he usually

It was the 9,000-year-old Eunuch Wei who leapfrogged the hierarchy and took charge of all imperial edicts.

When the ship arrived at Shanhaiguan, the special agent company transferred from Yuan Chonghuan had been waiting at Shanhaiguan for a day. Including the special agent company transferred from Ao Canghai by Li Xiao, this time Li Xiao only brought more than 200 people to Beijing. Compared with the previous time, Li Xiao only brought more than 200 people to Beijing.

Once, it was much more low-key.

After all, this is the capital, and you still have to have the respect you deserve.

With almost no stop at Shanhaiguan, Li Xiao quickly rushed to the capital with two special agents.

When I saw Ai Husheng, he looked like he had just been dug out of the Pharaoh's tomb, with bandages all over his body.

After watching through the glass window for a while, Li Xiao left. Every corner of the room had been sprayed with liquor, which was considered a sterile area. Li Xiao didn't want the guys to spray liquor again after he went in.

"How are you?" In the tea room next to him, Li Xiao sat on a chair. Xie Youcai poured a cup of tea diligently and stood beside him. The fifth master was sitting opposite Li Xiao. He seemed to have a sore on his butt.

It's constantly twisting.

"The power of the opponent's gunpowder was not too great, but the blown carriage board hit the person, and the whole body was covered with sawdust. Especially on the face, one of them almost hit the eye."

"Is there anything wrong with the internal organs?" Li Xiao interrupted the fifth master irritably, and he didn't get to the point after talking for a long time.

"The internal organs are fine, but they are all external injuries. The medical officer said that after two or three months of rest, he will almost recover. However, the wounds on his face will leave scars!" Mr. Wu spoke a little nervously. He was a source of news. The beggars wanted to intercept and kill him.

Ai Husheng had such a big event, but he didn't receive any news about it beforehand.

Li Xiao nodded, as long as his internal organs were fine. Two or three months of rest for trauma should be fine. Compared with being disabled, having a scar on his face is not a big deal.

"Eight of the guards died. If I hadn't happened to meet Mr. Xu that day, the consequences would have been disastrous." Seeing that the Fifth Master was a little nervous, Xie Youcai hurriedly slipped away and changed the subject.

"I want to thank Mr. Xu for preparing a better banquet. I'll treat Mr. Xu and Mr. Tian to dinner in Donglaishun. Mr. Wu, please go post a post for me." Although he knew in his heart that Xu Xianchun was a bastard, but this

Li Xiao had to accept the favor. When he arrived in the capital, he should treat others to a meal or something.

"No!" After receiving Li Xiao's order, the two of them bowed and retreated to do their work.

Being beaten, I still don’t know how to fight back. This is Li Xiao’s current situation!

There are hundreds of thousands of beggars inside and outside the capital. There are countless nooks and crannies in the alleys. God knows in which nook and corner is Hong Qi, the leader of the Beggar Clan, hiding. Li Xiao doesn't have the ability to search through the capital.

However, Jin Yiwei can be borrowed. Ti Qi Tian Xia is not just talking about it. For more than two hundred years of the Ming Dynasty, Jin Yiwei has already penetrated into every corner of the Ming Dynasty. Compared with others, the arrogant Dongchang is simply inferior to his heels.

As for the Fifth Master, a foreigner who has just been in the capital for a year. It is already good to be able to do what he is now! Damn it, I also need to set up an intelligence agency. Maybe Li Yongfang is a qualified candidate. Thinking of Li Yongfang,

Li Xiao thought of Luzhu again. This girl seemed to have some eyes in the capital. Last time, she was even able to hook up with the emperor.

Inside Jinyiweinan Town Fusi, Xu Xianchun held a large box in his hand and placed it respectfully on Tian Ergen's table.

"What is this for?" A box of large front doors is a big deal. Tian Ergen waved his folding fan and patted the large front door wrapped in kraft paper with a smile. On the black market, this box of large front doors can be sold for sky-high prices.

"Li Xiao came to the capital. I rescued his men a few days ago. He brought a box of cigarettes to thank me. This matter is entirely up to your strategizing. How dare I take credit for taking credit! There are also two boxes of Wuliangye, which have been sent to you.

The steward of the house."

"Oh!" Tian Ergeng said "Oh", took out a knife and opened the kraft paper. He took out two large front doors and threw them to Xu Xianchun: "Take them back and smoke them." As he said this, he also opened a box.

"Bah!" Xu Xianchun quickly picked up the match on the table and lit Tian Ergen's cigarette.

"Li Xiao is still on the road. This time, I got a favor from him through the help of the beggar gang. This business is not a loss. The insider you are in charge of will be promoted to hundreds of households once."

"Thank you, sir!" Tian Ergen said. The Jin Yiwei who had been an undercover agent of the Beggar Clan for seven years had finally made it through.

"Sir, we might as well help Li Xiao to kill Hong Qi. In this way, Li Xiao's character will definitely not let us help in vain."

"You are stupid! Dongchang, Shuntian Mansion, and the internal supervisors under Wang Tiqian are all blind? Why didn't they take action? It's your turn to be in the limelight. You are seeking death!"

"Isn't it Qian Qianyi from Jiangnan who instigated the beggar gang to fight against Li Xiao? He's just a down-and-out Juren. Are you afraid of him?" Xu Xianchun was a little confused by Tian Ergen's actions.

"You are stupid, but you are really stupid. Aren't you just a down-and-out person from Jiangnan? The powerful Jiangnan Chaebol behind him, Donglin, is ruined. But the Jiangnan Chaebol's abundant capital cannot be found in the imperial court. Manpower. Remember, money can make all the difference. They really pushed them into a hurry, and offered Jiu Qian Sui tens of thousands of taels of silver. Let's see, whether it is you who will be killed, or Jiu Qian Sui who will refuse the money.

Besides, the influence of the Jiangnan plutocrats in the capital is deeply intertwined. They are even closely related to some royal relatives. There are some things we should stay away from. Moreover, Qian Qianyi seems to have been entrusted by Jiangxi Longhu Mountain to find trouble for Li Xiao. These veterans have close contact with His Majesty and the people around His Majesty, and there are some things that even I don’t know about. This time, they just want Li Xiao to owe us a favor and take the opportunity to ask for some benefits from him.

Remember! You are not allowed to participate in this matter in the future, and no one from Jinyiwei is allowed to participate. No matter what benefits Li Xiao promises you or how much money he gives you. Do you understand?

Anyone who disobeys the order! Behead!" The Jinyi Guards were one of the twenty-four guards set up by Zhu Yuanzhang. Even though it was more than two hundred years ago, they still practice military law. Tian Ergeng was afraid that Xu Xianchun was greedy for money, so he didn't understand the situation clearly, and finally gave the death order. .

"Promise!" Xu Xianchun hurriedly agreed, but he didn't expect that the water behind this matter was so deep. Now Xu Xianchun no longer felt proud, but was a little scared. If he ruined other people's plans, would they get angry with him and find a way to deal with it? Give him a handful.

These years of fighting for Wei Zhongxian have really offended a number of people to their death. Among other things, the disciples and grandsons of the Donglin Party want to eat his flesh and drink his blood. If Wei Zhongxian and Tian Ergen hadn't been protecting them, I guess my bones can beat a drum now.

"But this time Li Xiao actually came in person. It is estimated that Hong Qi's life is about to end. Let's just watch the show, there is no need to spend so much thought. As long as His Majesty doesn't say anything, we will sit on the mountain and watch the fight between tigers and tigers.

Hehe! One is the Siberian tiger from Liaodong, and the other is the giant insect from Jiangnan. We have to see whether the giant insect is more powerful, or the eye-catching white-fronted tiger from the Northeast is more ferocious." Thinking that Li Xiao was going to have a fight with the Jiangnan plutocrats, Tian Ergen I can't wait to watch the show.

"Those people in Jiangnan are all scholars, how can they possibly fight against Li Xiao? He is someone who can even fight against the Tatars!"

"Haha! There are a lot of twists and turns here, and soft knives kill people more powerfully. In the final analysis, it is still the same saying, money can make the world go round. The Jiangnan chaebol has been laying out its layout since Wanli Ye's time, and its background is much richer than that of Li Xiao. It’s only been a few years since Li Xiao became famous!

It’s still unclear who will win!”

The two were talking, and Cui Yingyuan walked in after the roll call.

"Sir, Hao Wu is here. He said that he is sending a message on behalf of General Li, and he invites the two adults to Donglai for a banquet tonight."

"Oh! This guy is really on his way. He invited us to dinner just after arriving in the capital. You have to give us this face. You go and reply to Hao Wu. Today at Youshi, you must go and bother with this glass of water and wine." Tian Ergen nodded proudly, thinking in his heart

I have to propose something to Li Xiao today that I have been thinking about for a long time.

"Cui Yingyuan, you are also ready to prepare. Come with us to the banquet tonight. I heard that Donglaishun's mutton-shabu-shabu is a specialty in the capital. Everyone should try it, what a unique method!" Seeing Cui Yingyuan want to go out,

Tian Ergen warned again.

"Thank you, Sir!" Cui Yingyuan went out happily after hearing this. Li Xiao was treating guests, so good wine and good food were a must. Speaking of Wuliangye wine, Cui Yingyuan had been coveting it for a long time. Even though it was too expensive, it was always out of stock.

, it’s really not easy to have a drink. Today I want to have a fucking good time!

"Ha! Ha! Ha!" Tian Ergeng and Xu Xianchun looked at each other and laughed out loud in unison.

At Youshi, Tian Ergeng and Xu Xianchun took Cui Yingyuan to Donglaishun.

The downstairs was still full of pits, and it seemed that the influence of the Beggar Gang had passed. Xie Youcai met him at the door and took the three people and the guards directly to the private room on the third floor. The guards were all arranged into a large private room, Tian Er

Geng and the others were taken to a rather exquisite small private room next to them.

Li Xiao personally stood at the door to greet them. When he saw Tian Ergen and Xu Xianchun, he immediately cupped his fists and handed them over.

"If it hadn't been for Mr. Xu a few days ago, my steward's life would have been sealed. Li thanked me!"

"General Li's words have gone too far. We are all brothers. Your steward is being hunted. How can we, the Jin Yiwei, stand by and watch? Just say this to you, and I will punish you with three cups of wine." Tian Ergen laughed.

Making fun of Li Xiao, the four of them entered the private room talking and laughing.

The meat was fresh lamb, and the wine was Wuliangye, which made Cui Yingyuan's mouth water. The guests and hosts raised their glasses to toast frequently, and Li Xiao repeatedly expressed his gratitude. Xu Xianchun kept saying that they were brothers, especially Xie Youcai who brought in a few singers.

After the girl, the scene immediately became lively.

"Brother! I have an unkind request. I don't know if I can agree to it." Tian Ergeng is almost sixty this year, and he still calls himself brother to Li Xiao.

"Brother Tian, ​​if you have anything to say, just say it!" Today was originally a return of favors, but now Tian Ergeng has spoken. Li Xiao naturally wants to hear what kind of reward he wants.

"The muskets you have are good, but the muskets of the Fo Langji are not as useful as yours. Our Jinyiwei want to buy a batch, brother, look...!" Tian Ergeng looked at Li Xiao's face and said.

"This doesn't...!"

"Brother! Brother! We haven't finished yet. In addition to muskets, we also want grenades and mortars. You see...!"

Seeing that Li Xiao was ready to agree, Tian Ergeng quickly increased the pressure.

"Brother Tian, ​​it's no problem to give you a hundred muskets. For our brother's sake, we can also give you a thousand rounds of bullets. Mr. Xu saved my housekeeper, so you can sell some of these grenades to Jin Yiwei.

It’s just this mortar…!”

"What?" Tian Ergen frowned. What he wanted most was a mortar. This thing is the fastest-shooting cannon these days!

"To be honest, this thing has a long range. The Forbidden City is within the range of this thing. Your Majesty, do you have anything to say? This thing must not appear in the capital. The last time I brought it to Tongzhou, the princes and princes came to ask. What do you think?

I'm afraid your Majesty will have to ask for this thing."
Chapter completed!
