When we returned to the General Military Mansion, it was completely dark, but there was someone who had been waiting for a long time. It was Jin Shenghuan, the deputy commander-in-chief of Xuzhou, who hurriedly came from nearly a hundred years away!
Yesterday, Chang Yu ordered Hu Maozhen to send someone to Xiao County to summon Jin Shenghuan to come to Xu to see him. Hearing that the eunuch of Dongchang wanted to see him, he was very uneasy. He rode up to Xu early in the morning and entered the city to wait there in the evening.
After Chang Yu washed up, he met Jin Shenghuan alone in the lobby. The reason why he named this person was not because he had contributed to the suppression of Cheng Jikong and other three major thieves last year, but because Chang Yu was particularly interested in his resume. This guy is also a super
The master who knows how to toss, was a thief in his early years, and was nicknamed Yidou Li. Historically, after the Qing army entered the pass, they went south to defect to Zuo Liangyu. Later, he surrendered to the Qing Dynasty together with Zuo Liangyu's son Zuo Menggeng, and then together with Wang Deren (Baiwang).
The subordinates of the general Wang Tizhong (who was working with Bai Wang in Jianghan) rebelled against the Qing Dynasty and died miserably in the end.
Chang Yu is no longer an angry young man who has just arrived. It is normal for a general in troubled times to surrender to him today and to surrender to anyone tomorrow, but as long as he is not the kind of well-educated general who was favored by the emperor at the beginning and has a good background, he will surrender to thieves or thieves.
He would be more generous if the bet was clear.
People like Jin Shenghuan would have dismissed him in the past, but now he is hiring people, and Jin Shenghuan is still a very good fighter. He dares to fight and can fight tough battles. Chang Yu likes this very much, regardless of
Whether it is to suppress thieves now or later to fight against the Qing, his performance is remarkable. This is the talent Chang Yu needs most at the moment, so he must give him a future. At worst, he will be killed after using it up. Rabbit
Cooking dead dogs has been around since ancient times, and it’s not a big deal.
No one knew what Chang Yu and Jin Shenghuan said. They could only see that Jin Shenghuan, who was frightened when he arrived, was respectful to the young eunuch during the dinner.
The dinner was still very rich, but Chang Yu had issued a ban on alcohol. It was not that he couldn't drink, but that it should be done in moderation. Wu Zhong and others had not yet completely passed the drunkenness at noon, which happened to be exactly what they wanted.
During the dinner, Li Muxian kept chattering away, telling anecdotes about rivers and lakes and calling out troops on the battlefield. Chang Yu found it noisy, but everyone listened with gusto.
Chang Yu hurriedly finished his meal and left the table to let everyone continue. There was no one around, and he was less stressed and more happy.
"Isn't the monk back yet?" Chang Yu asked Song Luoshu while he was out in the garden by the lotus pond.
"I heard that I went out in the afternoon and haven't returned yet."
"Let him go, this monk is quite carefree." Chang Yu smiled bitterly and shook his head.
"More than a hundred lives have to be saved. The monk has been busy all afternoon, but he is not at all happy." Hai Hong didn't know when he came, but Chang Yu was startled: "You are so mysterious, monk, don't save yourself."
.
Haihong clasped his hands together, bowed and retreated.
"Sir, this monk... is even better than Taoist Priest Fang sometimes... hehe." Song Luoshu smiled bitterly, and Chang Yu nodded: "No, one is more weird than the other."
"I pay my respects to the factory governor." At this moment, the woman and a young child walked slowly over and bowed down before him.
Chang Yu was startled, then quickly reached out to help him up: "But Mrs. Xing?"
The woman stood up and said, "It's my concubine." She said to the child next to her, "Yuan Jue, please kowtow to the factory supervisor." The child was about to kneel down when he was stopped by Chang Yu: "No need.
You don’t need so many gifts.”
As he spoke, he cupped his hands and said, "It's Mrs. Gao. I'm sorry for bothering you in the back palace for half a day." As he spoke, he took a closer look under the faint light. This Mrs. Xing was very good-looking. No wonder Gao Jie was willing to rebel against Li Zicheng.
Since ancient times, heroes have struggled with beauty.
But Mrs. Xing is not only a beauty, but also a very good housekeeper. She can help Gao Jie take care of everything whether in the army or at home. Therefore, Gao Jie always praises his wife when meeting people, "Xing has a good general.
I can help myself without being greedy for sex.”
With this virtuous wife, Gao Jie obeyed his advice.
You heard it right, Gao Jie, who is arrogant and domineering outside, is actually a strict wife!
For example, during the Nanming Dynasty, Gao Jie always liked to brag about Shi Kefa and glare at him, but Mrs.
As for the child next to him, he was Gao Yuanjue, Gao Jie's only son, who was less than ten years old at this time.
"My husband is not at home, and it is not convenient for women to come out. At noon, I heard that the factory governor came to the house. I wanted to meet you, but you were at the banquet, and then went out. It was only now that I found the opportunity..." Mrs. Xing was not worried.
She spoke unhurriedly, with a natural and calm demeanor, neither humble nor arrogant, nor impatient nor impetuous. From her speech and behavior, Chang Yu felt that she was not an ordinary woman, and could also be regarded as one of the strange women in this troubled world.
By the lotus pond, Chang Yu had a casual conversation with Mrs. Xing and told Gao Jie that he would be back in the next two days. Mrs.
"Beautiful lady of the evening party, you are so excited, sir. It's only been a while, and the child is already so old. You are so capable." Li Muchian staggered over drunkenly.
It's nothing to joke about among friends, but Chang Yu is a eunuch, so this is not a joke, it's more like a mockery. If Li Muxian usually dared not say this no matter how bold he is, he might be drinking too much now.
Song Luoshu next to him turned pale with fright and winked at Li Muchian, but Chang Yu didn't take it seriously. He didn't care at all and just rolled his eyes: "If Gao Jie hears you say that, he will tear you apart."
.
"Besides, why should a poor man be afraid of that guy?" Li Muxian said, his feet softened, and he actually climbed onto the railing of the pavilion and fell asleep.
Chang Yu curled his lips and looked up at the moonlight in the sky. What Niubi said was true. The beauty at the evening party was quite sentimental.
"Luo Shu, let's go out for a walk with our family."
"Just the humble one and the adults?" Song Luoshu asked hesitantly. Chang Yu looked at him and smiled: "It's not convenient to have too many people."
Song Luoshu understood instantly, and the two left immediately.
When the footsteps faded away, Li Muxian, who was drunk in the pavilion, raised his head, took a long breath, and then slapped himself: "You have such a bad mouth, why can't you stop the door after drinking some wine?
Fortunately, that boy from the Song family winked... Hey, look at his mysterious look just now, what were you doing out there? Go take a look." As he got up, he was startled as soon as he turned around. Su Jing pointed his sword at his
His throat seemed to be smiling but not smiling: "If you dare to follow me out, I will stab you."
"Night Demon, you are so lawless, you are a poor Taoist, I'm afraid you won't succeed." Li Muchian was furious.
"Then try it." Su Jing sneered.
Humph! Li Muxian walked away with a flick of his sleeves: "I am so drunk that I don't have the same experience as you. Humph."
Watching Li Muxian leave with a arrogant look on her face, she frowned and muttered: "How shameless, running out to find someone else's girl in the middle of the night... Humph, I'd rather go see whose girl it is."
She returned the sword into its sheath, and when she was about to climb over the wall, she suddenly turned around and saw Monk Haihong looking at her with a half-smile but not a smile: "Why should we peek into his privacy as we are the servants?"
"Why are you prying into his privacy? I'm here to protect him. How can I do that when the only person I don't know well in Xuzhou City is Song Luoshu, a silly boy?" Sujing said angrily: "Master, do you always have trouble with me?"
"Donor, do you still remember under the big banyan tree at the entrance of the village outside the city?" Monk Haihong smiled slightly.
"Remember, what? If I hadn't had the murderous intention at that time, I might not have been discovered yet," Su Jing said proudly.
"The donor is warlike and victorious, so he always reveals his murderous intentions inadvertently. But what I am asking is, do you still remember the warning given to you by the little governor under the big banyan tree?"
"What kind of warning?" Su Jing looked confused and then said, "If he catches me peeking again, he won't let me go. Haha, he can't find me."
"Does the donor really think he can't find you?" Monk Haihong smiled: "A seriously injured person can recover in three to five days. Do you think the young governor is an ordinary person?"
Sujing frowned and leaned forward: "Who does the monk think he is? A master who has cultivated the indestructible body of Tianting Vajra?"
Monk Haihong shook his head: "There are unpredictable ghosts and ghosts. The poor monk is talking about him, not his martial arts skills." After saying that, he turned around and left: "It's better for you to stay in the house, don't bother him."
"Then what if I insist on annoying him?" Su Jing snorted.
"The poor monk is going to bother you." Hai Hong's voice came from a distance, like the tinkling of a stream or a shocking wave, and Su Jing frowned.
