Chapter 452: Cutting without the Way, Like a Catch in the Throat
Xu Jinhua was actually very nervous on her way back to Xiayi, fearing that others would know that she had done something earth-shattering.
But she was so proud that she wished the whole world knew that she had saved Wei.
At that time, she should be truly the most promiscuous woman in the world, right?
But thinking about this, I feel very boring. I won’t be a bitch in the future.
"Xiangzi, where do you want to make a living in the future?"
"hey-hey……"
Wang Xiang rubbed his nose, and then said with an honest smile, "I will go wherever the champion is."
"What? Are you going to join the army with him?"
"It's not easy for me to be good at dancing with guns. I still have to drive a car or make a living."
He patted Lao Li's buttocks and said, "Besides, with a genius like Lao Li here, three generations will never die of hunger."
Phew!
Lao Li snorted, turned around and said, "Brother Xiang, I will be a free agent in the future, so you should feed me more black beans. I am rich now, so I have to eat something good."
"That's for sure."
"wooden club."
Lao Li looked like a fool, it was just a joke.
After receiving the enlightenment from the old mother Feng, it still has to live this life, the life of a horse.
The reason is the merits on the path of spiritual practice.
Wang Xiang's family and everything are prosperous, which is equivalent to saying that its merits are performed on Lao Wang's family. The merits are a little thin, but for the horse, it is enough.
As one of the six animals, making a family harmonious, healthy and prosperous is the greatest merit.
The most aggrieved person was actually the piebald brown raccoon slave held by Xu Jinhua in the car.
At this moment, there is still no spiritual energy at all. Although Wei Hao took out a wisdom pearl, it is not possible for Old Mother Gou to recite sutras to regain her wisdom.
This former "Captain of Spotted Brocade Biaoqi" actually took advantage of his own aura, just like a living person who sacrificed all his energy and spirit just to help.
It is actually not difficult for a person to slowly learn to walk after birth; but for an adult to break his legs and let him walk again, it is very difficult.
Wei Hao and Feng's mother are just letting "Bannjin Biaoqi Duwei" use the wisdom beads to restore the aura of the raccoon slave. Otherwise, it will be an ordinary cat that can act coquettishly and rub hands.
In addition, Lao Li also carried a bag of wisdom beads, which were given to the various spiritual beasts who came to rescue him at that time. Those Jianghu demons had never met Wei Hao, or even only heard about them, but they still took the risk. For saving Wei Hao from the city, Wei Hao should be grateful both emotionally and rationally.
But now that he can't go to Xiayi anymore, he can only take a roundabout way and borrow Lao Li's magic horse to repay the favor first.
The carriages walked slowly, and traffic in Xiayi had resumed at this time. Although it was lively, it lacked the vigor of the past, and there was always a sense of decadence.
In the canals, the grain ships were filled with darkness. The capital city has experienced dramatic changes, and now there is a strong trend of hoarding goods. No one wants to experience this again.
At the Fuguo Market outside the South City Gate, the prices of rice, flour, grains and oils have more than doubled, but they are still better than during the curfew. Many people in the city come here to buy goods.
As for the east and west cities, the wealthy households in each area have already taken over.
However, all these hustle and bustle are not as intense as the ones after the teahouses and restaurants came back to life. Nowadays, most of the storytellers' storybooks are about "The Biography", and the editor is naturally Wei Hao, but he dare not name him for fear of being copied.
Stall.
Hundreds of years after the founding of Daxia, Wei Hao was the only wanted criminal who managed to escape after being rounded up.
In addition, he is also the only assassin in the history of the dynasties who successfully assassinated the Prime Minister and escaped unscathed.
At the same time, he also has a very interesting identity, as one of the top six subjects in the Great Xia Dynasty.
The people in the city who had regained their vitality a little were really willing to talk about this legend again and again, especially since they had all experienced it.
During the day, he performs chivalry and justice, and at night, he examines ghosts and slays dragons.
This is the best pleasure in the world!
Even though the imperial court described Wei Hao as a heinous person in the sea arrest document, to the common people like traffickers and lackeys, this document was just a piece of paper.
In the past, "Nian Nujiao" and "Yulin Ling" were often sung in Goulan, but in this situation, "Po Zhen Zi" is the most popular, which makes even the most educated people rarely want to have a headache.
This shocked Xu Jinhua and Wang Xiang, who had not returned for a long time.
After pulling a cart of goods back to the city, "Tianxiang Pavilion" was deserted inside and outside, and no one came to have fun. Compared with other brothels, the disadvantage of not having an oiran was greatly magnified at this time.
Fortunately, Xu Jinhua didn't want to be in this situation for a long time. She summoned the ladies in the pavilion and distributed the status deeds. The seal of the Jiaofang Secretary had already been stamped on it.
It was really not easy to get a chapter in the past, but now it is very simple. As long as the money is in place, it is no problem for someone from the Jiaofang Division to play a piece of music for you.
"If you want to make a future and save some money for yourself, I will introduce you to start work elsewhere in Ankangfang. That won't be a problem. It's not impossible to find a businessman to make a living in the future."
After Xu Jinhua finished speaking, she looked at the old and young prostitutes in the pavilion, "If you don't want to do it anymore and are willing to find someone to entrust it to you, I can go to the matchmaker myself. If you want to go with me, you should prepare early. The maids waiting by you are waiting outside.
Those who are familiar with each other are good friends, those who can be settled can be settled, those who can be coaxed, don't be sloppy..."
"Mom~~The capital is so nice, why are you leaving?"
"That's right, Mom, there are no such noble people anywhere else..."
Upon hearing this, Xu Jinhua was angry, but she didn't say anything, "Didn't I arrange a way for you?! If there are a few more interruptions, just chew your maggots and expect me to help you pick vegetables and cook."
Na!"
The prostitutes all have their own worries. When it comes to making money, it is natural that they are familiar with the business here, and they know a lot of patrons. If old customers come a few times a month, the money is very safe; but when it comes to closing the door a few times,
That's really a waste of money... I can't stand it.
Another thing is that they really want to go to a famous restaurant and become an oiran lady, but their appearance and skills are far behind. When it comes to poetry and songs, they are also very lacking. They are neither good nor bad, so naturally they are extremely troubled.
All comparisons show that Xu Jinhua, the old madam, treated them well. He treated them like a money tree, but he didn't say that he had uprooted them and not even a leaf was left.
It's just that the future is uncertain now. Is it possible for prostitutes like them to really rely on the promise of talented people under the flowers and moons?
Do not be silly.
A bitch is ruthless, an actor is ruthless.
but why?
Due to status.
There is nothing to hope for in a lowly business. What else can you hope for besides gold and silver?
In this situation, Xu Jinhua did not gossip with her "daughters", and she did not even mention a single word about Wei Hao's involvement.
Except for the "Dimitovich Mathematical Analysis Problem Collection" which is a calligraphy treasure, there is nothing else.
Not to mention, even though the sea arrest documents have been released outside, there are still brave guys who come to redeem Wei Hao's calligraphy treasure.
Ji Tianxia, the Minister of Rites, even sent someone to come, saying that he was willing to give him a hundred taels of gold.
Xu Jinhua didn't understand whether Minister Ji was mentally ill or something, and she wasn't afraid that the court would investigate him for such a bold act.
She said that the anti-traitor text had been completely burned, and she dealt with it.
It was only when I was passing by Guozixue later that I heard that the imperial court had set up an altar that could summon spirits and summon powerful generals from all dynasties to fight.
Naturally, she didn't understand the secrets, but she kept it in mind, thinking that after going south, she would tell the rebel about it.
As soon as the second leap month passed, the peach blossoms of March bloomed and faded. By the second day of April, the whole capital was shaken again.
"Oh my God! That Wei Xiangxiang has actually returned to Beiyang Mansion!"
"What does this mean? The hundreds of thousands of troops ahead were all out in force, and no one was caught. Isn't it only a matter of time before we return to Beiyang Mansion?"
"Notice! What the notice says is not simple——"
The tea shop had been quiet for a long time. Last month's "The Legend" was already ringing in my ears, and it was completely no longer fresh.
But on the second day of April, Lao Jianghu in the tea shop and restaurant immediately smelled an unusual smell.
"Rebellion! Rebel! After Wei Xiangxiang returned home, he put up a recruiting flag and directly pulled the flag to rebel!"
"Wha...what? Rebellion? This...this Beiyang Mansion is a heavily taxed place. It has always been attached to the imperial court. There shouldn't be many people who are willing to follow Wei Xiangxiang in rebellion, right?"
Anyone who does business knows that there are many wealthy households in Beiyang Prefecture. How could these people rebel?
They have held officials and titles in the court for three generations and five generations, and their ancestral acres range from 10,000 to 5,000. Rebellion is not hurting others, it is hurting themselves.
"Wait for the announcement?"
"What does the communique on the first day of the month mean?"
"Beiyang Mansion is mostly a land of plenty, and there are many famous ministers in charge, such as the 'Five Chaos Chuanlu' Wang Fubo... With Wang Xianggong here, rebellion? I'm afraid he is not at the level of Xiaoju Mountain Forest, but just a mountain king."
"The Ministry of Rites also talked about this. When I went to deliver the goods, the concierge also said that there were rebels in the south, and vaguely said that they would dispatch the 'Fengxiang Army' or something..."
"How big of a movement can this make?"
While many tea shops are still busy, Ankangfang is full of gloom. The prostitutes are carefree and are still trying their best to please their customers. However, there are not many husbands who want to have a good time today.
When we come to Ankangfang, we always meet to discuss matters.
Most of them are officials from the counties and villages near Beiyang Prefecture. They all have sad faces and sigh from time to time.
"Brother Nian, what do your family say?"
"It's not good. Not to mention Wufeng County, but also Wuya County and Wutan County, there are a lot of mud-legged people who are making trouble. The grain markets in the three counties have been occupied. The river is now blocked by the aquarium, and the ships are not protected by the demon killers.
Jiang is simply impossible."
"Ah?! Is this another demon disaster?"
"The news from home is that the nearby spirits all obeyed the orders. I don't know what method they got, and responded to Wei Hao, formed a demon army, and mixed with the Mud Legs. What happened is unclear at the moment."
"Brother Nian relied on the Demon Immortal Baojia for his summons?"
"good."
The official of the Ministry of Etiquette, who was wearing regular uniforms, did not cover up and nodded, "It is a good homing pigeon. It settled in my house when my great-grandfather was a child, and used it to carry messages across thousands of miles."
"Something is very wrong."
"right……"
They are all elites in the court. What's wrong with them is that those monsters in the world can follow Wei Hao in rebellion obediently?
You must know that when the spirit and monster cause chaos to a certain scale, it will cause rebellion in the human world and will alert the heavenly soldiers and generals.
"Well……"
One person suddenly said in a deep voice, "Is it possible..."
Suddenly, seeing a figure outside the pavilion, he stood up and closed the door, dismissed the prostitute, then returned to his seat and said, "Is it related to the imperial court using demons as soldiers?"
"It's possible."
"If the foreign countries surrender, they will be used. However, the non-human soldiers and horses who rounded up Wei Xiangxiang during the previous curfew, from what I have seen, are not the monsters of the Fan countries."
As officials of the Ministry of Rites, they are very sensitive to "rituals".
Monster clans such as Zhuer Haba, after using it, does not violate the "properties", because in the category of Tianxia, Zhuer Haba's species is indeed bound by the Divine State.
However, those monsters that are not recorded in the imperial books have jumped out of the "ritual" and are not under the control of the Chinese overlord, so naturally there is no corresponding convenience.
But now the imperial court's conquest is more or less a violation of the laws and regulations that have always existed.
So from the perspective of the rebels, if you Xia Shi can use it, I can naturally use it in the rebellion.
In the future, if there are any punishments according to the rules of the Three Realms, they will have to be treated equally. No one's say about this will count. It is the rules set by the ancestors and emperors that have the final say. It will be useless even if the gods and immortals come.
It's just that the original "loyal ministers" like Zhu'er Haba have already rebelled. It's natural for the Xia Dynasty court not to use these suspicious people. Conquering the vast rivers and lakes is originally considered the prerogative of the overlord of China.
After all, it is the overlord of China, that is, the human dynasty, who has the final say on whether it can be used and whether it is easy to use.
One link after another, this kind of variable appeared.
"However, when Wei Hao launched an army to cause rebellion, what was the name of his army? How come Qin Tian Jian, Xun Tian Jian, Honglu Temple... were not revealed?"
"Logically, our Ministry of Rites should also receive the news, but Minister Ji doesn't seem to want to mention it today, and his tone is very strict."
"I'm afraid something bad will happen..."
The senior officials of the Ministry of Rites don't want to mention it, and that's right.
Because the news coming from the Tiantian Supervisor is that the banner of the rebel army in the counties of Beiyang Prefecture is "Fighting the Unjust".
If that's all, it doesn't matter if you mention it.
But after "defeat Wudao", there is another "exhaust the rebels and cleanse the Jianghuai River".
In other words, the bandits are not attacking the city or the like, nor are they going to seize the city, but are heading directly towards the demon disaster in Jianghuai.
This matter, as long as it is publicly discussed at the great court meeting, cannot be pushed forward or discussed. It is completely a slap in the face of the two saints on the high throne.
On the night of the second day of April, the officials of the foreign court who gradually learned about the movements of the bandits felt a sense of absurdity stuck in their throats, so much so that some officials who wanted to speculate immediately gave up the idea of betting on Wei Hao.
After all, you have already rebelled and ended up not doing the right thing. Is your Wei Xiangxiang brain stuffed with mush?
