"What's wrong? You don't look too good. Is there something wrong with this Fu Wang? "
Xu Ke rubbed his throbbing temples. Although his lord's transformation from a man to a woman did not cause a tsunami, there was still unrest in Wanzhou, especially among the landowning aristocrats of Shangyang County. The Feng family had maintained a state of silence, but the other aristocratic families were constantly making small moves.
This was considered the best news in recent days. Xu Ke wanted to share it with Wei Ci, but he did not expect Wei Ci's reaction to be a little strange.
Xu Ke was curious and asked casually.
It was this question that pulled Wei Ci into the quagmire of memories. Memories related to Fu Wang surfaced in his mind.
"I've heard of Fu Wang before."
Wei Ci adjusted his state of mind and restrained the shock in his heart, so as not to arouse Xu Ke's further suspicion.
Xu Ke said, "From the information we received, Fu Wang seems to be a valiant general working for the Meng family. I only hope that he's someone who knows his place."
The lord was a woman, so it was inevitable that she would bring some trouble. At this time, the internal department had to be more united and harmonious, and there could not be any different voices.
Recently, Xu Ke and the others had been worrying about it.
The situation in Fengyi County and Chengde County weren't too bad. The former was where Jiang Pengji had established her power, and her foundation was the most stable. The latter had been devastated by the Red Lotus Group and didn't have any troublesome local bullies … Among the three counties in Wanzhou, Shangyang County had the least control.
In order to completely unify the forces in Wanzhou, they could only think of ways to suppress the aristocratic families of Shangyang County, either by roping them in, alienating them, or making them unable to unite. As long as these people couldn't gather together and unite as one, these clowns wouldn't be able to do anything.
At this time, Xu Ke was most worried about internal unity.
Wei Ci had given him a reassuring pill, which made Xu Ke feel more at ease.
He said, "Fu Wang first served Fu Yang, and then he defected to the Meng family. In just a few years, he became the Meng family's most trusted general with his powerful martial strength. However, the Meng family was rather interesting. On one hand, they relied on Fu Wang, but on the other, they tried to rope him in and suppress him. It was quite a contradiction. With our Lord's magnanimity, she will definitely be able to take him in. As for Fu Wang's temperament … there's a little problem, but it's not a big deal. "
Hearing Wei Ci's words, Xu Ke instantly felt much more at ease.
As long as he wasn't a troublemaker who didn't fit in with the group, he wasn't worried.
Xu Ke then asked, "What's wrong with this person?"
After all, they would be new colleagues in the future. It would be easier to get to know them in advance.
Wei Ci lowered his eyes slightly, his thick and long eyelashes casting two exquisite shadows.
He smiled and said, "Fu Wang's biggest problem is that he is fickle."
Xu Ke exclaimed in surprise. What did she mean by capricious?
He thought that only women could be described as fickle. If it was applied to a man, then it meant that the man …
Xu Ke frowned. "You're saying that this person is disloyal?"
If he was "disloyal," how could this be considered a harmless fault?
He had a good impression of Fu Wang and did not want him to be ostracized by Xu Ke because of this.
"It can't be considered disloyal. Xiaoyu also knows that Fu Wang is a child raised by a pack of wolves. Wolves were far more straightforward than humans. They respected and supported the strong. This was an innate instinct. Once the master is weak and the subordinate is strong, he might not be convinced. "
Speaking of his previous life, Fu Wang's experience was quite interesting. It could be called a model of job-hopping.
Fu Wang was adopted by Fu Yang at first. He was Fu Yang's right-hand man and half his son. The father-son relationship was very deep.
Later, Fu Yang died of old injuries. Fu Wang brought Fu Yang's old subordinates to seek refuge with the Meng's. They still lived well.
The main point was that the master of the Meng's died of malaria. The heir was a good-for-nothing. He failed miserably and was finally abolished by Fu Wang. After Fu Wang took over the power of the Meng's, he accepted Prince Changshou's recruitment and became his most trusted general.
However, Prince Changshou was also a good-for-nothing. He was a blind man.
Logically speaking, Prince Changshou's camp was full of talents. There was Qiguan Rang in the literary field and Fu Wang in the military field. Even if he could not become a powerful feudal lord, at least he would not die so tragically. However, this fellow had just gained a foothold and was arrogant. He was surrounded by a group of sycophants. Not only did he alienate Qiguan Rang, but he also threw him into prison. He was guarded against Fu Wang and even dreamed of taking away his military power.
To his delight, Qiguan Rang ruthlessly killed his old master and opened the city to welcome Her Majesty.
As for Fu Wang, this fellow had sharp senses. He predicted danger ahead of time and found an excuse to retreat with his troops. He sought refuge with the next family.
Do you know who the next family is?
The next family is the Xu brothers from Zhe County. The younger brother, Xu Fei.
Did everyone think that this was the end of the job-hopping?
Of course not.
Fu Wang first sought refuge with Xu Fei. However, Xu Fei was a funny man. Not only did he use his military power, his governance was also a mess. He caused the wilderness to stretch for thousands of miles and the people had no way to live. Even when Fu Wang joined with his troops, he was still unable to turn the tables on Xu Bei. In the end, he still lost.
After Xu Fei lost, Fu Wang accepted Xu Bei's recruitment.
Speaking of this, there was a small incident that had to be mentioned.
Xu Bei's strategist, Han Yu … Yes, he was Wei Ci's senior apprentice-brother in name and one of Master Yuanjing's outstanding disciples.
Han Yu said, "Fu Wang is a violent person with few responsibilities. He is arrogant and lacks loyalty. He is a capricious villain and cannot be used."
If it wasn't for the fact that Xu Bei lacked capable subordinates at that time, Fu Wang might have been killed.
Because of this dispute, Fu Wang and Han Yu had a very bad relationship and had frequent conflicts. Later, when Xu Bei was defeated by Her Majesty, he used some tricks to recruit them. Han Yu still cared about his old master and rarely gave advice to Her Majesty. Fu Wang, on the other hand, seemed to have been injected with chicken blood and had a second spring. At that time, many people were waiting for Fu Wang to jump ship again. In the end, Fu Wang led a team of tigers and wolves.
As for Han Yu?
He was cautious by nature and did things meticulously. If it weren't for that incident, he would probably have died of old age.
What incident?
Han Yu's wife was from a prominent aristocratic family. Her family background was extremely high. However, Her Majesty had affected the fundamental interests of the aristocratic family and had reduced their power over and over again. A few aristocratic families had secretly joined forces and wanted to overthrow the palace. After all their efforts failed, Han Yu was implicated and committed suicide to escape punishment.
Fu Wang was ordered to confiscate the property of the traitor. Han Yu was also implicated. He felt humiliated and wrote a ten-thousand-word confession letter and committed suicide by swallowing gold.
It had to be said that the dispute between Han Yu and Fu Wang had an inexplicable sense of deja vu.
Before Han Yu died, he secretly sent a letter to Wei Ci. Every word was written with blood and tears. Wei Ci had mixed feelings when he read it.
After reading the whole letter, there was only one feeling – Han Yu died unjustly.
When Han Yu was young, his family was involved in an unjust case. As a result, his family fell into disgrace. At the same time, his temperament changed drastically.
After the establishment of the Jiang Kingdom, he was entrusted with the important task of revising the law.
