Chapter 626: The old master and his family landed on the island

The two brothers, Zheng Haomin and Zheng Haomiao, took a small road, and it was a shortcut, so they are now far ahead of the team.

At night, they camped beside a forest path, and more than a dozen guards lined up to take turns on night shifts and set up guards around them.

"I wonder if they found out that we escaped?" said Zheng Haomin, nibbling on a roasted rabbit leg.

"As soon as they stop at the ground, they will find out, but they will not be able to find us again. Zheng Haomiao smiled reassuringly.

He is the son of a noble family, and he has never suffered from smuggling and trafficking, these jobs are all done by his subordinates, but over the years, few of the goods they smuggled and trafficked have been robbed, which also shows that the path they have found is safe and reliable, not only a shortcut, but also a secret, ordinary people can't find it at all.

He also gnawed on a rabbit leg, and grabbed a wine bag in his right hand, and his men did not hit a large beast, but only caught a few rabbits, and the rabbit legs naturally belonged to the two masters.

Not far away, Xiao Jun and Zhou Dingcheng hid in the dense canopy of an old tree, staring at the Zheng brothers.

"These ghosts, who don't know how to die, are still smug. Zhou Dingcheng said disdainfully.

Smelling the aroma of wine and meat, he also moved his index finger, but unfortunately he didn't dare to take out the wine, let alone go down to the fire to barbecue and eat it.

"Let them revel in it for a while. Jun smiled.

Soon after the Zheng brothers left the team, Xiao Jun found out, he didn't find the Zheng family brothers, but found that the Gu Jiehu had slipped away, and he couldn't let the prey that was coming soon slip away, so he secretly chased after it, and it turned out that the Gu Jiehu was not slipping away, but chasing people, and it was the Zheng family brothers who were chasing.

These two people no longer regard the Zheng family brothers as targets, so they didn't stare at them, and their eyes were all fixed on the back of the ancient family.

When Xiao Jun fled last time, Gu Jiehu was bent on robbing him of his belongings, chased him thousands of miles away, and caused him several injuries.

When he met this time, Xiao Jun was ruthless, saying that he couldn't let Gu Jiehu go back alive, and this determination was the same as killing the Zheng family brothers.

"What do you think, if you want me to say that you should hurry up, don't dream too much at night and let him slip away. "Zhou Ding became enlightened.

Gu Jiehu was hiding not far from them, and there were a few passers-by nearby, all of whom were also hiding in the dark, staring at the Zheng family brothers.

These people still thought that the Zheng family brothers, at least Zheng Haomiao, had the amazing wealth of the Zheng family, but they didn't know that they had already been preempted by Xiaojun, and then they were looted by Qi Buyu again, and now the two brothers are just some entanglements.

These people are very patient, and they can sense each other, but they can't know exactly who they are. So they didn't rush to make the first move, but waited patiently for the opportunity.

The current situation is like this, whoever makes the first move will not only attract the desperate resistance of the Zheng family's guards, but also become the target of others, a typical rafter.

"You also saw before, this guy is actually very ordinary, but his sense of smell is more sensitive than that of a fox, and he slipped away at the slightest disturbance, and this escape kung fu is absolutely first-class. We don't care about the Zheng family's things, why bother to make a bird, just wait for that bastard's vigilance to relax, that is the time for us to make a move. ”

Zhou Dingcheng was greatly disdainful, it's not that he doesn't care about other people's things, you have already got it in your hands. Poor these fellows still persistently chase, thinking that it was a fat sheep, but in fact it was a fleshless bone.

Since Xiaojun said so, he had no choice but to sacrifice his life to accompany the gentleman, whether it was the Zheng family brothers or the ancient family, he was not interested, he just accompanied Xiaojun, so everything was based on him.

Seven days later, Chen Musa and his family moved to the central island of Xuanwu Lake in Nanjing.

The Chen family only moved with their belongings this time, and those bulky household items were left in the old mansion in Suzhou, and many people were left to manage and take care of the old homes.

Even so, the moving team is also huge, after all, there are many people in the Chen Mansion, and there are hundreds of servants and maids in the family, and each of them brings some items, which adds up to a considerable amount.

Although Chen Musa and pomegranate have been reduced and reduced, they still find that there are too many things to carry, otherwise it will be very inconvenient.

Besides, he only took Xiao Nier on the road, but he was relaxed, and the two bags didn't take much space in the carriage.

From the beginning of the city of Suzhou, there are the officials of the Suzhou Mansion, the escort of the tolerance, and after leaving the city, the escort sent by the Zhongshan Mansion will continue to escort, and the Suzhou celebrities and gentry will gather here to practice for Chen Musa in the ten mile long pavilion outside the city. It took a lot of time.

"Old master, but you must come back, Suzhou can't live without the old master. An old gentleman wept bitterly.

Chen Musa's face was also heavy, and he promised to come back in two years.

Besides, looking at Zhile from the side, Pomegranate glanced at him: "Everyone is crying, but you are smirking, what are you laughing at?"

Pomegranate is also a little reluctant, after all, he has left his home, and he feels a little uncomfortable.

"I mean, these people have high acting skills, and when there is no teacher, Suzhou is just as good, why can't Suzhou be without a teacher?"

"You're cynical. Pomegranate pretended to be angry.

"Sort of. Besides, he admits that he just can't get used to the hypocrisy of these people.

The old master in Suzhou can indeed bring many benefits to Suzhou Shilin, especially many invisible benefits, and he does not deny that these people still have true feelings, but do they feel that it is necessary to exaggerate to this point?

"By the way, will you come and live on the island with us when you go over?" asked Pomegranate.

"Of course, otherwise it would be too much trouble to row to the island every day. "Besides, I think it's better to be honest when I get to Nanjing.

After the Suzhou celebrities and gentry practiced for Chen Musa, the convoy continued to go on the road, but along the way, officials from various counties continued to put wine on the road to practice for Chen Musa, which can also be said to wash the dust, which really delayed a lot of work, and it was not until night that the convoy entered the city of Nanjing.

According to the hour, the city gate should have been closed, Wei Guogong and the Nanjing garrison government discussed, all the city gates were still closed on time, but the Shence Gate that Chen Musa wanted to enter was kept, and Wei Guogong personally led a team of ironclad troops to guard the city gate, waiting for Chen Musa's convoy to enter the city.

Enter the city by the Shence Gate, arrive at the nearest Xuanwu Lake, if you go to the Qinhuai River, you should enter through the Jubao Gate. There are 13 gates in Nanjing, namely Shence Gate, Zhongfu Gate, Jinchuan Gate, Yifeng Gate, Dinghuai Gate, Qingliang Gate, Shicheng Gate, Sanshan Gate, Jubao Gate, Tongji Gate, Zhengyang Gate, Chaoyang Gate and Taiping Gate.

Why the city gate takes the number thirteen, this is related to Liu Ji, who designed the architecture of the capital, it must be that he designed some kind of formation that secretly combines the operation of heaven and earth, so this number is not taboo.

This is not a casual guess, among the warlocks and strange people of the past dynasties, Liu Ji is the character who is best at formation arrangement, and Zhu Yuanzhang won the world back then, and most of them relied on his formation diagram. Once, Liu Ji returned to his hometown to mourn his mother, but Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't stop him, and wrote to ask Liu Ji to write the formation map on paper and send it to him.

It is not uncommon for Kyoto to be based on a formation diagram that secretly merges heaven and earth, and Chang'an Castle in the Sui and Tang dynasties was built entirely in accordance with the innate array diagram.

Gossip, at the beginning, Yongle Emperor Zhu Di attacked Nanjing City from Jinchuan Gate, and it was the eunuch and the King of Gu who opened the city gate and dedicated Nanjing City.

"The old master has worked hard all the way. ”

As soon as the convoy entered the city, Wei Guogong first went up to talk to Chen Musa, and then asked him if he would go to Guogong's Mansion to rest for a few days before going to the island.

Chen Musa thought that he had brought so many people and so many things, and it would be too troublesome to go to the Guogong Mansion, so he said that he should go directly to the island.

Wei Guogong was not reluctant, he had already made a lot of preparations on the island, the chefs in the city and the famous chefs of the Guogong Mansion invited a lot and sent them to the island, and the ingredients had already been prepared.

When the convoy arrived at the shore of Xuanwu Lake, several wide ferries took the convoy directly to the deck, and then rowed to the central island of Xuanwu Lake.

It is not far from the shore of Xuanwu Lake to the central island, and as long as the water is not too bad, you can generally swim through the narrowest area.

Besides, looking at the clear water of the lake in the torches, I wanted to jump in and swim for a while. Of course he didn't dare, and at this time he stood cautiously in front of the pomegranate, afraid that the pomegranate would get seasick.

Generally speaking, southerners can swim, and northerners are mostly landlubbers, but this is also generally speaking, it is suitable for men in a wide range, and it is different for women, especially those big ladies, it is impossible to find a river loop to jump in and swim in the summer. So there are really not many maids in the Chen Mansion who know how to water.

Fortunately, the ferry boat is stable, there is no wind on this day, the water surface is calm like a mirror, and I only feel a little swaying from side to side on the ferry, and everyone can still get used to it.

"There was water on all sides, and there was nothing good about it. Pomegranate looked at the dark and dreary water, and already regretted that he had lost the excitement he imagined when he was in Suzhou.

"It's good to be on the island, the scenery above should be good. Besides, with the lake water regulation, the weather is not too hot, and there are fish to eat every day. Besides, he had to persuade her like this.

"Well, let's be safe. ”

Pomegranate also knew that he was forced to move here because he was helpless, and he had to move whether it was good or not, and there was no choice, otherwise the boss on the Golden Palace in Beijing would frown.

When I arrived at the island, I found that the whole island was brightly lit, with thick pine torches set up everywhere, and hanging lanterns on both sides of the road, illuminating the whole island as bright as day.

Under each torch and lantern, there is a row of palace guards standing upright, and the atmosphere is solemn and rigorous.

"It's beautiful. "Everyone was amazed when they came up, the landscape in front of them was so beautiful.

Besides, I stayed by Pomegranate's side and looked at her face, it was not bad, I finally passed the first level safely, and I felt a little more steady. Xiao Nier was wandering around, with no expression on her face, and she didn't seem to like this island very much.
