Chapter 612: Xijindu
Nishitsudu is famous in history. 【】
After the missing period of the history of the Yan Kingdom, the heroes of the world rose together at that time, and they were divided into two camps, the north and the south.
The king of Jiangnan and the king of Lianghuai fought a big battle here.
Later, the victorious Lianghuai kings also erected a monument here to commemorate the battle.
When the Chu family was fighting for the world, they also fought a tug-of-war with the Jiangnan wealthy clans here, and the stalemate lasted for a whole ten years before crossing the river from Jingzhou and besieging Jiangnan from the land of the two lakes.
This place is usually the mouth of the canal, and there are many ships coming and going.
And once a war breaks out, it is a military important place, and the soldiers must fight for it.
Therefore, in addition to the Cao soldiers who manage Cao Yun, there are also government soldiers stationed at the ferry port.
As soon as the captain's fleet entered the ferry, they docked at the rest place of the big ship on the side.
Then Zhang Qi took a group of guards to find the captain of the Cao Soldiers and the captain of the government soldiers.
Gu Xinyue leaned on the window and watched Zhang Qi and the others walk by, then turned her eyes to the whistle at the dock and said, "The soldiers here are just afraid that they haven't been useful for many years." ”
There were about a dozen guards at the outpost, all of them either lazily lying on the roots of the trees, or sitting together chatting, and occasionally two of them were standing, still yawning and looking unrefreshed.
Qin Qi looked next to her, frowned slightly, pulled her away from the window, and said, "Jiangnan has been stable for a hundred years, besides, the imperial court will not let there be elite soldiers in Jiangnan." ”
In case this elite soldier can't control it and guards the ferry, then the trouble will be the imperial court.
Moreover, now that the land of the two lakes has developed, although the river is dangerous, there are many places where the river can be crossed.
Judging from the current imperial court, there is no need to garrison a large number of elite soldiers here.
Moreover, with the military system of half peasants and half soldiers of the government soldiers, and the rations must be brought by themselves, it is impossible to produce elite soldiers.
Gu Xinyue smiled and looked at him out of the corner of her eye.
With this person's previous appearance, no matter how strong the elite soldiers are, they can't stop him.
Well, my man is really strong~
Seeing that Qin Qi couldn't help but kiss her slightly curled red lips, he left quickly, and said with a smile: "Our county lord is frightened, and he wants to rest in Zhenjiang in front for a few days, you see, is it to rest on the boat, or go to the town inn?" ”
Gu Xinyue's eyes rolled and said, "You mean to say, let's go to Jinling secretly to play?" ”
"Well, it's okay to go for a day or two." Qin Qi pulled her up and said, "Clean up, let's go." ”
Zhenjiang is not far from Jinling, and it is only two hours to ride a horse while the sky is still dark.
Today's weather is good, even if you miss the hour, it doesn't matter, I heard that the scenery of this Zhenjiang is also good, there is a mountain ahead, to the village under the mountain to spend a night.
"Girl, the guard said there was someone out there asking to see you." Gu Xinyue smiled and got up, and Peony happened to push the door and entered.
"Someone asking to see you?" Gu Xinyue was not surprised.
Although Xijindu is important, it is just a ferry, there are more than ten miles away from Zhenjiang City, most of the boats will not stop here but go directly to Zhenjiang after coming and going, how can anyone come here to ask for a meeting?
looked back at Qin Qi, but saw Qin Qi frowning and looking out of the window.
Then he also got up and looked back, and asked, "Who is asking to see?" ”
"It was said that he was the housekeeper in the Jiangnan Governor's Mansion and came to visit the girl." With the sound of Peony, two large ships smaller than them, but not too small, had also sailed into the ferry dock.
On the flag fluttering on the bow of the ship, there was a big unison.
"It's just a steward, and he dares to come to see the county lord, this Jiangnan governor's face is really big!" Qinglianzi leaned against the window (the other one) and said coldly, but her eyes were fixed on Gu Xinyue (Qin Qi's hand on her waist).
(Kill the girl and don't let the girl leave her eyeliner!) )
"Peony, it's good for you to go and see it, just say that our boat was attacked on the river, and the county lord was frightened, and now he is bedridden." Qin Qi sneered and said: "Be arrogant and sue them, even if the county lord is not frightened, it is not something that anyone can ask to see." ”
He saw these two ships in Yangzhou, but at that time they did not fly the flag of Qifu, and after their fleet left the ferry, these two boats also came out.
Naturally, they should have seen the boat on the river attacking their fleet.
I'm afraid that because the distance is too far, I can only see their arrows, and I can't see what happened specifically, so I want to come over to find out the truth.
But at this time, he came to probe and only said to ask for a meeting, not to say that he was here to greet him.
It can be seen that this steward doesn't care much about Lord Rongning in his heart.
In other words, his master gave him the feeling that the lord of Rongning could be contemptuous.
Peony was stunned for a moment, then bit her lip, and said with chagrin and guilt: "Yes, I know, let's go." ”
Originally, there shouldn't have been a need for Qin Qi to remind her, and when the guard came up, she blocked that person back, instead of looking back at Xinyue.
It was this time when life was too smooth, and it actually made her forget to mention her vigilance.
didn't realize that the other party did this, he looked down on the county lord of Rongning.
Reacting in his heart, Peony was angry on his face and walked out angrily.
"Peony, you should let me know about this." Gu Xinyue turned around and called her, and said with a smile: "You also want us to know the attitude of this Jiangnan Governor's Mansion." ”
Peony's footsteps paused slightly, turned around and smiled at Gu Xinyue, and then took another step, and his steps were much brisker.
I also have a plan in my heart.
The expression on his face also calmed down, and naturally brought a cold taste.
Qin Qi smiled and gave Du Zhong a look.
Eucommia was a little footed, and the people followed the peony.
(Now, he is dressed as a military envoy again)
The ship was heavily guarded, and the steward was blocked on the dock, and he was not even allowed to get on the boat, and after waiting a little longer, his face was dissatisfied.
Thinking that he is in charge of the Qi family, the celebrity in front of Mrs. Qi, in this land south of the Yangtze River, even the Zhizhou below has to give some face.
Shangde Mansion passed a word, that is respectfully greeted in person, not to mention, fortunately, the tea and wine are offered, and the reward is also rich.
These people dared to let him wait outside like this, without even saying a good word!
Hum! Sure enough, it's a rude and ignorant Lord!
This is Jiangnan, and your general's brother is not even a hair here, let alone you, the county lord who the emperor doesn't care about!
If it weren't for the fact that these ships fired arrows to repel those boats, he wouldn't even have paid attention to them.
Give some face and it's still rampant!
The steward was scolding in his heart, thinking about how to sue Mrs. Qi when he went back, when he saw the guards on the ship retreat to both sides, and a woman in a silver-white floating cloud satin dress appeared on the side of the ship.
The woman had a gorgeous face, a cold expression, and her chin was slightly too high, and she looked at him condescendingly with a cold and contemptuous gaze.
The steward chuckled, his legs weakened, and he knelt down and said, "The little one has seen the county lord." ”
The corners of Peony's lips curled slightly, a trace of coldness flashed in her eyes, and she said in a cold voice: "The county lord is not something that people like you can see, let's say, what's the matter?" ”
I even thought that the county lord would come out to see him in person!
This Jiangnan governor is so rampant!
