What Gu Cheng said was righteous. Regardless of whether he had the ability or not, at least his attitude seemed much more comfortable to Fang Zhenhai than the others who remained silent.
Fang Zhenhai pondered for a moment, secretly communicated a few words to Master Yunhai, and finally said in a deep voice: "Gu Cheng, you have just joined my command, so you may not understand some things.
It's good that you have the intention to help me, but you have to act within your ability. There is no joke in the army. If you take over this matter, you will be rewarded if you solve it. If you mess up, you will also be punished.
of.
So I will give you a chance to think about it again. Do you really want to take this matter?"
Gu Cheng stood up and said in a deep voice: "I will never take back what I have said. I will do my best on this trip to relieve the king of heaven!"
Fang Zhenhai nodded with satisfaction and said, "Not bad, what do you need?"
Gu Cheng said: "All you need is a token that can represent the King of Heaven and an accompanying guard who is familiar with the martial arts in Nanyi County."
Fang Zhenhai nodded, waved his hand, and asked people to arrange these things for Gu Cheng.
After Gu Cheng walked out of the meeting hall, Gao Jiande, the eldest of the eight kings, frowned and said: "King of Heaven, why do you want this kid to do such an important thing?
He was just a night watchman of Jingyesi before, and his strength was only seventh level. Even if he presented the orb, it was a great achievement, but letting him sit here was already a compliment to him, and such an important thing was
Give it to him?"
Fang Zhenhai coughed, and Master Yunhai smiled at the side and said: "The King of Heaven also wants to test this son. Although everything this son said is true and he even presented the orb, there are always some coincidences in things, so we can't
trust it completely.
Regardless of whether this matter succeeds or fails, we only need to see whether he is doing things seriously or whether he is secretly destroying the foundation of the King of Heaven, and then we will know whether the other party is real or fake.
Moreover, the affairs of the Siji Sect may not be big, but they are not small at all. You are all the confidants of the King of Heaven. If you do this matter, once you really fall out with the Siji Sect, it will be extremely difficult to recover.
But this boy is different, this Gu Cheng has just joined the Heavenly King's command, if it really goes wrong, he can be thrown out to calm the resentment of the Siji Sect, and he can move forward and retreat freely."
Gao Jiande frowned. Just now, Fang Zhenhai secretly communicated with Master Yunhai to discuss this matter.
But since when did the King of Heaven start discussing these matters with others instead of discussing them with himself?
Gu Cheng took the token representing Fang Zhenhai and the entire rebel army, and led a group of guards, about ten people in number.
The leading guard commander was a young warrior in his early thirties. He cupped his hands towards Gu Cheng and said, "My subordinate Jiang Yuandong has met Lord Gu."
"Are you a local warrior from Nanyi County?"
Jiang Yuandong nodded and said: "My subordinates have been hanging out in Nanyi County since before joining Lord Tianwang's command."
"Okay, then, tell me about various things about the Siji Sect and the general situation of the entire Nanyi County Wulin."
In fact, Gu Cheng knew all these things. The intelligence information Qiu Erniang gave him was extremely detailed, even so detailed that it was not like news that the media could find out.
But he had just arrived, and it would be suspicious if he showed too much understanding, so he wanted to have this team of guards not only to cover himself, but also to make Fang Zhenhai feel at ease.
He was sure that Fang Zhenhai did not completely trust him now, and he would not trust him to show off his token. He would definitely send someone to spy on him.
Since this was the case, I simply asked a group of people to come over openly, and acted under their noses, putting people on the bright side.
After Jiang Yuandong finished speaking, he looked at Gu Cheng carefully.
Although he was from Nanyi County, he was not a veteran of Fang Zhenhai's command. He was just an ordinary Jianghu man who was attracted by the generous treatment offered by Fang Zhenhai, so he joined his command and rebelled with him.
The control of the imperial court in Nanjiu County was weak, and rebellions broke out every few days. For these low-level Jianghu people, rebellion was really not a big deal.
He was really curious about Gu Cheng.
After all, these days I have only heard of rebels who surrendered to the court and were recruited, but I have never heard of anyone from the court taking the initiative to join the rebels.
Gu Cheng thought for a moment and then said to Jiang Yuandong and others: "You go and change all the armor on your body first, and change into ordinary clothes."
"What are you doing changing clothes?"
"Go to the brothel."
When Gu Cheng said he went to a brothel, he really went to a brothel. At this moment, he was wearing a jade-white brocade dress and sitting in the Jasper Tower, the largest brothel in Guangling City. Even the Blood Abyss Sword was decorated with a gold belt.
Yu's sword scabbard looked like that of a rich man, while Jiang Yuandong and other guards were dressed like servants.
Although Nanyi County has just experienced a war, it did not affect the prosperity of the city.
No matter who is in charge of Guangling City, whether it is the imperial court or the anti-thieves and rebels like Fang Zhenhai, it is just the king's flag changing on top of the city. Everyone should eat when they should, and visit brothels when they should.
Therefore, the entire Guangling City was only slightly disturbed for a moment when Fang Zhenhai just entered the city, and everything was normal the next day.
At this time, the Biyu Tower began to select the monthly oiran, which was also a trick learned from the capital.
A bunch of girls came out in a hurry. Whichever guest came to support them, they spent money to buy flowers and presented them to them. Each flower was worth one tael of silver. The girl who got the most flowers was the oiran of this month.
Therefore, the Jasper Tower has become a den for a bunch of dandies to spend huge sums of money, and those girls who get courtesans will try their best to repay their benefactors.
Rows of girls were dancing on the flower stand in the center of the building. Gu Cheng was holding a glass of wine, but he was not looking at the busty and long legs on the stage, but at a man.
The man was probably in his early twenties and had a fairly handsome appearance. He was rolling up his arms and sleeves to have a drink with others and commenting on the woman on the stage. He looked like a typical playboy. In fact, this man was also a very famous man in Nanyi County.
A famous playboy.
This man's name is Wang Lin, and he is the youngest son of the head of the Wang family in Nanyi. Because his appearance is almost exactly the same as that of Wang Kaizhi, the current head of the Wang family, when he was young, he is quite favored.
The Wang family of Nanyi is the most powerful among the families in Nanyi County. The most important point is that the Wang family has a big feud with the Siji Sect.
In the past, a head of the Wang family died at the hands of the Siji Sect, and the Wang family itself was severely damaged by the Siji Sect. If it weren't for the fact that several outstanding figures from the Wang family of that generation had turned the tide, there might not have been the current King of Nanyi.
’s.
Gu Cheng came here, naturally, for the most beloved son of the head of the Wang family.
Wang Lin is also a bit of a weird person. He likes wine, sex, and fun. Normally, this is nothing. It's the standard for a dandy.
But this Wang Lin's taste is a bit strange. He doesn't even look at the many beautiful maids in the Wang family, but prefers those with mature charm and older age.
At this time, a woman in her thirties, plump and beautiful came up on the stage. Wang Lin's eyes suddenly lit up, he held up the wine pot and shouted: "Bring a thousand flowers for my sister Xiya!"
Although Biyulou is the largest brothel in Guangling City, spending a thousand taels to win over a woman is not a lot of money. After all, a thousand taels can redeem most girls.
Someone next to him sneered: "Young Master Wang, you lack maternal love. We all praise the top girl now, but it would be better for you to praise the top girl more than ten years ago. Do you want to go home to nurse? Hahaha!"
The people around him burst into laughter. They were all rich men from Guangling City or Nanyi County, so they were not afraid of each other's identity.
Moreover, in some disputes in the brothel, it would be embarrassing if Wang Lin had the nerve to use his family behind them to suppress them. This is also some of the unspoken rules of these playboys.
Moreover, even if the head of the Wang family dotes on his son, he will not stand up for him in the disputes in the brothel. He cannot afford to lose that person.
Wang Lin sneered and said: "I want you to take care of it? It's not like you, who are reluctant to pay for a girl when you go out. If you can't afford it, don't do it!"
Being so aroused by Wang Lin, those people suddenly became angry and shouted: "Give me Miss Lanxiang five thousand flowers!"
Wang Lin was furious and said: "Give me six thousand more!"
The servant next to him carefully pulled Wang Lin.
"What are you doing?" Wang Lin asked angrily.
"Sir, we don't have enough money."
Wang Lin suddenly widened his eyes: "Why do you take so little money when you go out?"
The servant said aggrievedly: "You have used up all your quota this month, and this is all you have left."
When the people around heard this, they immediately laughed and said: "Who can't afford to play? Mr. Wang should go home first to get the money and then come to support the girl, but I guess it is more likely that Mr. Wang will hang you up and give you a beating."
"
Just when Wang Lin was filled with shame and anger and didn't know how to move back to the next round, Gu Cheng suddenly called over a servant from the brothel, threw out a stack of banknotes, and said calmly: "Give it to Miss Xiya."
Ten thousand flowers."
As soon as these words came out, the entire brothel fell silent.
There are more and more weird things these days. Someone actually spends 10,000 taels of silver to support a has-been courtesan who is "old and lustful"?
The girl Xiya on the flower stage could hardly stand. She didn't expect that she was about to reach the age of becoming a madam, and there was still someone willing to praise her so much. Could it be that this person's taste has really changed now?
Several other dandy boys looked at Gu Cheng with unkind expressions: "Boy, where did you come from? Why do I think you are so unfamiliar? The fat sheep outside dare to interfere with our business, are you impatient?"
Gu Cheng snorted lightly and threw out Fang Zhenhai's token.
When they saw the word "riot" on it, everyone immediately fell silent and left in a low-key manner.
Things have changed in Guangling City and even the entire Nanyi County. Their parents have been telling them for several days who is in charge of Nanyi County now.
They dared to challenge Wang Lin, but they did not dare to offend the people under Fang Zhenhai at this time, especially because of funny things like brothel prostitutes.
At this time, Wang Lin walked to Gu Cheng's table with a smile on his face, handed him a glass of wine, winked and said with a smile: "Thank you brother for helping me out. It seems that we are also of the same mind."
