The Jinling Barracks is also under the command of Yan Pingnan, but whether to listen to the command or not is another matter.

As soon as Zhu Changxi returned to Beijing, this was a great encouragement to the soldiers of the Jinling Barracks.

And after Zhu Bingtian went, he was also good to his brothers, so that the brothers also recognized Zhu Bingtian as their eldest brother.

Among the generals, there are not many who can make the soldiers die.

At this time, good news came from the northwest, and Zu Dashou led his soldiers and horses to repel the Tile Thorns and successfully held the northwest fortress.

The news reached the capital, and the people celebrated and cheered each other.

At this time, Zhu Changxi was not fighting, so he was very calm.

There is also a fixed messenger between him and Gu Zizhong.

Gu Zizhong also stabilized on Jinling's side, after all, he was afraid that the rebels would come, this was just an emotion.

In fact, this kind of thing doesn't exist at all.

Because the rebels won't come at all.

In the northwest, Zu Dashou, Hong Chengchou, and Sun Chuanting, several of their veterans have already beaten the rebels and the Tile Thorns to the point that they can't find the north.

Jinling's side is also relieved.

There are more and more soldiers in Chuzhou City.

The pressure to fight in the south is getting less and less.

Jinling City also slowly opened its gates, allowing people to enter and leave the city back and forth.

Gu Zizhong went to the Scholar Garden again and accompanied Tang Xiannan to chat about the imperial examination.

Because of this imperial examination, there are a lot of jinshi in the scholarly garden of Jinling.

If there is another champion in the palace examination, Bangyan or Tanhua, it will really be a glorious face.

Tang Xiannan's goal has been achieved, and the scholars she has cultivated are all the best.

Moreover, Jiangnan is stable, and the grain harvest is also very good.

Tang Xiannan understood the reason, so he sent people back to Jiangnan and took some grain and transported it to Jinling, saying that it was used as tax grain and as the soldiers' military salary.

But at this time, the Jinling barracks was empty.

Gu Zizhong knew that Sister Tang would still come to trouble.

Tang Xiannan also knew that the emperor had given up Jiangnan and ceded Jiangnan to the Zhu family in Jinling.

Therefore, if the people of Jiangnan want to live a good life, they have to rely on the Zhu family in Jinling.

Tang Xiannan and Gu Zizhong are called sisters, so she naturally has to understand something.

To put it bluntly, I'm just giving you food and giving you benefits, do you want it?

Gu Zizhong is also very refreshing, if you want it, why not!

There was more food in Jinling City, and many people came to sign up for the army.

Because when a soldier has something to eat, he can still have more meat in the pot in peacetime.

In this way, Jinling had another 2,000 people to defend the city.

A lot of them are firepower guys.

People who come to eat and drink, Gu Zizhong doesn't want it.

In this matter, Gu Zizhong is still very grateful to Tang Xiannan.

After Gu Shizi got these soldiers, he began to live in the Jinling Barracks and train in it.

Gu Shizi can also be regarded as a halfway monk, and he turned to literature and martial arts, and his kung fu is not bad.

Of course, for a fierce general like Zhu Changxi, it is still far behind.

Gu Shizi was training in the barracks, and Li Nanyu was also idle.

When the three of them were fine, they got together for tea.

Gu Zizhong showed the two of them the letter sent back by Brother Zishan from the capital.

Zhu Changxi mentioned Yan Pingnan more than once in his letters.

Everyone knows in their hearts that Yan Pingnan has antipathy, but he also wants to save face.

So before forcing the palace, you must do something first.

Defeated the Qing soldiers, so that the people of the world could be convinced of him.

Yan Pingnan led his troops out of Shanhaiguan.

However, the war was scorching, and it was difficult to distinguish the winner for a while.

The people in the capital are waiting to see how it goes.

Especially Zhu Bingtian, waiting to see Yan Pingnan's jokes.

Here in Jinling, Gu Zizhong is also waiting for news. Li Nanyu and Tang Xiannan are more like spectators on the side, waiting to see the joke.

They all wanted to see who could press and rub Yan Pingnan and Huang Taiji on the ground.

The three of them made a joke when they were fine.

Gu Zizhong likes to joke the most, and when Brother Zishan is not there, she makes jokes about Brother Zishan.

Now it's early spring again, just past Chinese New Year's Eve and Shangyuan Festival, and there is a boom outside.

Gu Zizhong and Li Nanyu were both interested and wanted to plant some peach blossoms in the scholarly garden.

The women were busy in the courtyard.

The atmosphere is very relaxed, and the children in it continue to read.

In this imperial examination, there were many candidates in Jinling's Scholarly Garden, and many of them became Jinshi.

This is a great honor for Tang Xiannan.

She also talks about this matter from time to time, and can't help but show it off.

Gu Zizhong and Li Nanyu were listening on the side, smiling as they listened.

To have this book garden, Gu Zizhong also paid a lot.

But his own credit, Gu Zizhong himself is just hard to say.

Li Nanyu said for Gu Zizhong: "Sister Tang, our Gu rich people have also made a lot of efforts. Otherwise, how could the Jiangnan gentry send all their children here to study?"

Tang Xiannan's red cheeks were still covered with powder.

She was genuinely happy.

Gu Zizhong also sighed: "Actually, that's not what I meant. Jinling Academy originally accepted a lot of scholars, but because of the two disasters in our Jinling City, there was no one in the academy. Otherwise, I wouldn't have helped you build such a scholarly garden again. ”

Many scholars in Jinling Academy are full of wealth.

So the Scholar Garden will naturally not be bad.

Gu Zizhong was also very pleased: "I am really special to see our students in Jiangnan, and even further away, scholars from Liangguang and Fujian come to study with us." ”

How can I say this special feeling, just like when Gu Shizi was studying.

Everything is inferior, but reading is high.

Gu Zizhong silently made a wish in his heart, hoping that these scholars would be able to get ahead as soon as possible.

There were a lot of children from other places, and Gu Zizhong also sent his two children to the Scholar Garden.

Of course, Qing'er is also thirteen years old at this time, which is not small.

Zhu Bingtian is so crazy that he is boundless, but he is only fifteen or sixteen years old.

Two or three years have passed in a hurry!

Immediately, Qing'er will be able to ride a horse and shoot a bow like Zhu Bingtian and become a big child.

As a mother, isn't that what you look forward to this day?

Gu Zi was excited when he thought about it.

After a few of them took care of the affairs of the Scholar Garden, they invited Gu Shizi to give a lecture to the children.

Gu Shizi felt flattered.

Basically, after he came out of the Jinling Barracks after training soldiers, he hurried to the Shuxiang Garden to give a lecture.

When he returned home, Li Nanyu prepared dinner for him and waited for him.

More than half a month has passed since such a dull day.

Immediately after that, news came from Jingshi's side.
