Chapter 44 Unexpected Reunion

Gan Yushu and Baizijin look at each other.

After all, the population of the entire China is far greater than that of the barbarians, but the barbarians are well prepared and everyone can fight. Most of the Chinese side are civilians, and with the initial loss of civility, the court's approach has always been to guard against the inside rather than the outside, and to emphasize civility over military affairs, so they were caught off guard.

But if you really want to fight and consume, the barbarians can't afford it. Hundreds of thousands of people were defeated, and for China, filling it is relatively simple, but for the barbarians, the unexpected defeat of more than 200,000 troops this time was still quite a bit of a trauma.

For this reason, in the short term, there is no need to worry about the possibility of the barbarian army going south.

If a series of riots can be successfully launched north of the Huanghe River and make the rear of the barbarian army unstable, it will definitely be a headache for the barbarian Hu. In addition, if we can really take advantage of the fact that the barbarians have not yet established a rebel army to resist the barbarian Hu north of the Huanghe River, we can cooperate with the south to fight and settle the Central Plains in the north, which is just around the corner.

"But this is only part of the reason why I went north this time," Ning Jiang continued, "As I said before, the female lords of Zoroastrianism are highly likely to come from the Shura Realm. To be prepared to face stronger enemies in the future, we need to understand them first, but this is not something that can be done by staying in the south. On the one hand, the living space of Xinmomen in the north is getting smaller and smaller, and I must use the power of the Heaven and Earth Association and more Jianghu knights to go north to help them. On the other hand, for some reasons, the conflict between me and Zoroastrianism is unavoidable, and I am not a person who will sit and wait for death. Destroying Zoroastrianism, helping Xinmomen and Jianyi Army, clarifying what happened in the Yinchuan land in the north, as well as the true origin of the Holy Phoenix and the internal situation of the Shura Realm are all things I have to do."

Gan Yushu sighed: "Any one of these is probably not easy."

Bai Zijin said: "Brother Ning, what can we do for you?"

Ning Jiang said: "Take this defeat by Chashi, stabilize the situation in the south as much as possible and ensure the further research and development of firearms by Longhu Mountain. Zijin, before launching a general attack on the barbarians, Bashu must be recaptured, and regaining Bashu must rely on the Red Turban Army. Longhu Mountain will ensure that you have enough artillery and other firearms, and others need to be prepared by yourself. Brother Yushu, with the friendship between you and me, I may not trust you again in the future, but the independence of Longhu Mountain and Nanjian Xuanwei Department must be guaranteed, and the court will not be allowed to interfere too much. Once there are many people involved, various internal secrets will inevitably be leaked. With the means of Shen Ce Zongbei, he may have begun to study the various firearms that have appeared at present. This must be prevented. Qin Ze will provide you with sufficient operating funds. How to mediate between the court and various forces depends on your own."

Gan Yushu sighed: "Oh, I thought it was a man who was drunk with the wind, flowers, snow and moon, but I didn't expect it but I was running around and working hard! You really would cause trouble for me."

After thinking about it, he said, "You only mentioned Longhu Mountain and Nanjian Xuanwei Division, the Shenwu Left Army and the Navy on the Long River..."

Ning Jiang said: "After that, they will completely obey the orders of the court. After this great war, if they are away from the court, the emperor will probably be unable to sleep. At present, the emperor is still the banner and righteousness of the entire China. When they are willing to completely obey the orders of the emperor, or even accept the supervisors sent by the court, as long as they are not stupid, they will definitely not be divided and disbanded. After all, the emperor also needs such an army to intimidate all the troops for him. Therefore, Zijin, your Red Turban Army must continue to follow the orders and not listen to the Xuan Dynasty. While obeying the overall situation, the Red Turban Army will naturally follow the example, and this is also the one who preserves the left army of Shenwu from the side."

Bai Zijin smiled and said, "Of course there is no need to say this."

At this moment, the river is covered with flower boats, with bright lights and colorful colors. In the past, Yuehu was the area and the place with the most flowers. Now, this Fuchun River has become the Qinhuai River in the south of the Yangtze River.

Ning Jiang stood up and said, "It's rare to get together. Anyway, there's nothing wrong. Why don't we go to the boat for a trip?"

Gan Yushu stood up and smiled and said, "I have been so impressed. I have been busy these days. I finally had this opportunity. How could I not have a romantic relationship?"

Bai Zijin quickly said, "I won't go, if Sister Hong knows..."

Gan Yushu hugged his shoulder and said with a sarcastic feeling: "If you don't say it, I won't say it, and Brother Ning Jiang won't say it either. Who would know? Although your Red Witch is powerful, he is still far away in Mingshan at this moment. Will he still come here?"

Ning Jiang said, "Don't worry, Zi Jin, the largest flower boat here is called the Xiyue Tower. The owner of the Xiyue Tower, named Qin, Hongyun, was originally the first prostitute in Yuehu, and was once famous in the capital. Last year, he got a low profile and bought the Xiyue Tower. Now this Xiyue Tower has spread all over the world, and even the north of the Central Plains and Huanghe River, she has her ships. Haha, even if the barbarians occupy the Central Plains, most of these romantic places are still preserved."

Gan Yushu said: "Brother Ning Jiang's words seem to have no intention."

Ning Jiang whispered: "To be honest, this girl Qin Hongyun is now a member of the Tiandihui."

Ganyu Shu, Baizi Jin suddenly realized. This kind of romantic place is not only the most effective place to collect news, but also the easiest place to avoid the attention of barbarians. This time Ningjiang went north, and the message transmission between the north and the south of Huanghe River may only be able to follow this path.

Since this was the case, Bai Zijin did not refuse again. At that moment, they settled downstairs together, came to the dock, and boarded the small boat left by the slanting moon building on the shore. The small boat spread lightly under the moon and approached the largest flower boat on the river.

The lights were bright and wine, and all kinds of shouts, and the man's laughter and the woman's singing came layer by layer. The three of them boarded the flower boat, and a woman came forward with a smile. She was graceful and charming, and her sleeves were filled with fragrance: "Mr. Ning, long time no see!"

Ning Jiang held the fan and said, "Sister Hongyun, how are the business going to be good recently?"

Qin Hongyun smiled and said, "I thank you for your blessing, my business has been booming recently."

Ning Jiang Yi smiled and said, "That's good, that's good!" He turned around and introduced, "Sister Hongyun, these two are Brother Gan and Zi Jin. Everyone is their own people. Please take care of them in the future."

Qin Hongyun put her sleeves on her waist and bowed to the two of them, saying, "It's my family that I want to ask the two young men to visit the Xiyue Tower in the future. If you have any needs in the future, just give me instructions."

Gan Yushu smiled and said, "Miss Hongyun is welcome!"

Ning Jiang brought them here, the main purpose was to let them meet Qin Hongyun. When he went to the north, Baizijin returned to the southwest, Ganyushu was in Lin'an, and Qin Hongyun's help was needed for information transmission and intelligence exchanges.

As for other things, there are many people here and it is difficult to talk to each other. After meeting them, I just walked around the flower boat. Ning Jiang had few brothels, and Bai Zijin was the first time to come. Gan Yushu was a veteran in the Fengyue field, and he talked and laughed with Qin Hongyun.

Qin Hongyun led the three of them in and arranged a good seat upstairs for them, so that they could not only enjoy the singing and dancing in the lower part opposite, but not much disturbing. While the wine and food were presented, Gan Yushu said: "Why are there any beautiful sisters in the building, please ask Sister Hongyun to introduce them."

Bai Zijin quickly said, "No need for this, just drink and chat..."

Qin Hongyun smiled and said, "Since I'm here, how can I just drink and chat? I have heard of Mr. Gan's good reputation in this romance and moon field. In the past few days, the sister of Li'er, the head of Huahaolou, is here. Most people want to invite her to drink, but they can't even think about it. Today, for Mr. Gan's face, I went to invite her to accompany Mr. Gan. As for Mr. Ning and Mr. Jin, although they rarely come to such places, they think that many of the girls in this romance and moon field are actually good families who are forced to step into the dust after their families are destroyed. Especially now, it is a chaotic world of war. Many wealthy families in the north fled to the south and fell to beg for prostitutes."

He continued: "Since you two have come here, you have asked two girls to accompany you, which is actually helping them. Here, they can still live and live a life of luxury. If they are unpopular and driven out, they don't know what will happen. Speaking of which, recently, two new girls in my 20s have arrived on my boat. They were originally the daughters and daughters-in-law of officials in the capital. When the capital was captured by the barbarians, they fled all the way to the south. The two bentoes were pitying them and doing some business for them. How good is this?"

Baizi Jinzi was not willing to refuse after she said this.

Gan Yushu smiled and said, "Sister Hongyun, I don't accept this. Gan used to linger in the romantic and romantic field, and was indeed not a good man. Zijin is a good man, so there is no need to say this. But Brother Ning Jiang didn't say anything, why did he treat Zijin as the same as that, and need Sister Hongyun to persuade him like this?"

Ning Jiang Yaofan smiled and said, "Oh, you can't understand the good men like Zijin and Gu's family like me."

Gan Yushu laughed and said, "It's fine if Zijin, brother Ning, you dare to say something like you, who are merciless everywhere?"

Ning Jiang said: "Hey, you can eat randomly, and you can't talk nonsense! How could a young student show mercy everywhere?"

Gan Yushu said: "For example, a missing first talented woman in the capital in Meiwutai, a little princess of the late emperor, such as..."

Ning Jiang said: "Come on, drink, drink..."

A few people joked, and at that moment, Qin Hongyun invited Zhao Lier, the pillar of Hua Haolou. Zhao Lier was also a famous prostitute in Jiangnan. She was expensive and she would not go downstairs at any time. However, this kind of "reservedness" was originally a way to raise her own value in this romantic scene. At this moment, since Qin Hongyun, the owner, went to invite him personally, he naturally knew that the person he was with was extraordinary, so he was diligently pleading, which made the atmosphere on the table very lively.

After a while, Qin Wuyan smiled again and brought two dressed girls to the scene: "Mr. Ning, Mr. Zijin, this is Miss Fu'er, this is Miss Xiu'er. They are all good girls from the capital. You should cherish them well. Fu'er, Xiu'er, Mr. Ning and Mr. Zijin are all noble people who can't even invite them on weekdays. Come, go and toast the two princesses."

The two girls came forward diligently and wanted to toast. When they saw Ning Jiang and Bai Zijin, they were stunned again. Somehow, they couldn't speak.

Ning Jiang and Bai Zijin looked up, but at this moment they were a little confused... These two girls dressed in bright and beautiful clothes were Lu Xifu, the daughter of Zheng An, the former Jinzi Guanglu doctor, and Zheng Xiuxiu.

Unexpectedly, I would see Bai Zijin here who was engaged to me since childhood and was forced to break off the engagement by my family. Zheng Xiuxiu was stunned. However, Lu Xifu also looked at Bai Zijin and Ning Jiang, unable to speak...

***

The atmosphere that followed was actually a bit weird, but since they had met and faced with such a situation, the people on both sides could obviously pretend not to know each other.

Lu Xifu sat next to Ningjiang, while Zheng Xiuxiu sat next to Bai Zijin. Seeing her trembling little hand, almost with tears in her arms, she forced herself to toast Bai Zijin with a smile at Qin Hongyun's instigation. At this moment, even Ningjiang couldn't help but feel sympathy for her.

On the way, taking advantage of the opportunity to get rid of the fight, Ning Jiang pulled Qin Hongyun to the other side and smiled and said, "Did you do it on purpose?"

Qin Hongyun smiled and said, "Don't blame me, the Zheng family has already been destroyed. The Lu family originally thought that relying on the Zheng family's big tree is good for the sake of the coolness, so they moved to the capital, but they also fell with the Zheng family. When the capital city was broken, they escaped from the city. If it weren't for their close contact with the young master, I finally helped them, their fate would be much worse than now. Letting them accompany you and the young master of Zi Jin is just to let them know that their blessings are also

It's all up to you two. You have never seen the end of the girls who were captured by Manhu, or who were caught by those gangs while fleeing south. If I hadn't seen the girl from the Lu family before and bought them from a vicious gang, at this time, it would be a problem whether she could survive intact just for slaves and prostitutes. They themselves also saw with their own eyes the end of the girls who were tortured to death, compared to those places, our place is already a blessed place."

Ning Jiang naturally knew that the so-called "prostitute" is different from "prostitute". The "prostitute" who mainly sells talents and skills has a much higher status than "prostitute". In the future, it will gain some, and it will have the opportunity to marry into a good family.
