Chapter 161: Inside and outside Yangzhou (first update, ask for subscription)
Tokushiko is here!
Camp outside the east gate.
Two days ago, when the mighty army appeared outside Dongcheng and set up camp there, the entire Yangzhou breathed a sigh of relief.
No matter how the outside world spreads that De Shizi is so murderous and brutal.
But for the gentry and people of Yangzhou, no matter how brutal he is, they have never heard of him slaughtering the city, but Dongyu is different, there are more than one or two cities slaughtered since he entered the Kou!
Knowing that Donglu went all the way south, the gentry and people of Yangzhou were terrified.
Now that the son of virtue is here, there is no need to worry about it anymore!
As long as the prince of Deshi is there, Jiannu will definitely not dare to offend Yangzhou. Then Yangzhou will naturally not be ruined!
As a result, they who consciously escaped the catastrophe are naturally grateful to De Shizi. In fact, for the people of Yangzhou City, "Zhu Ciying", the son of Deshizi, not only has a "life-saving grace" for them, but also a "star", after all, from the beginning of the year to the present, in the Yangzhou restaurant teahouse, Deshizi has long become a storytelling material.
The late Ming Dynasty was not only popular, but also popular storytelling, but most of them were blind, and the almshouses set up by local state capitals, as well as official charities to help widows, widows, lonely and disabled, would also teach those blind children some means of livelihood, divination and storytelling are one of them.
These storytellers, in restaurants and teahouses, not only talk about old books such as "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" and "Water Margin", but also talk about some new and popular ones to earn some subsistence money. Because most tea drinkers have long been tired of listening to old books such as "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" and "Water Margin", and even "Journey to the West" and even "Four Journeys" such as "Journey to the East" have lost their freshness.
If a storyteller wants to make money, he has to push the new ones, and he definitely can't make money with old books, so how to be unique among storytellers! What about the top spot?
Naturally, it is to rub a wave of heat and earn a fortune with the advantage of fresh heat.
So in the mouth of the storyteller, what "The Fire God Burns Ji County, Breaking 100,000 Jiannu", "The Prince Shouji County", "The Fire God Fights Laojun" and other words that seem to be fairies and devils are freshly baked from the mouths of the storytellers.
Although these words are crude and even equivalent to nonsense, the storyteller found that people were very enthusiastic about the "stories of the princes" who were like fairies and demons, and naturally they were happy to tell such stories.
Storytellers love to speak, and people love to listen.
For a time, De Shizi or Vulcan became a well-known figure in Yangzhou and other places, and his fans in Yangzhou and other Jiangbei cities were even more amazing. After all, there are many half-immortals, but only this one has killed Jiannu for the people and saved his homeland.
In the past, the people just heard the story of the storyteller "The prince led the fire to destroy the Eastern Demons, and eliminated the evil immortals to defend the country", and now the Dongyu is watching the killing to leave Nanzhili, but such a fairy-like character came to Baoyangzhou, how can these people who consciously escaped not be excited.
So it is with the people. Even the salt merchants who usually looked up to the top and looked down on the clan were also enthusiastically welcoming the arrival of this virtuous prince, after all, they cared more about their own lives than the people.
As for what he loves to kill.
What's this, he is so murderous, Dongyu is afraid of him, so he doesn't dare to provoke him, so he doesn't dare to come to Yangzhou.
As for killing people under the pretext of money and food!
I don't know if I'm in other places, but I don't know in this place in Yangzhou - the salt merchants have silver!
If he has enough money and food, can he still kill people?
Not only to give enough money and food, but also to do everything possible to slap him, even if it is the Ming one of the German princes who are domineering, they will be imprisoned in the high walls of the central capital, and they all have to be served well, as long as he is in Yangzhou for a day, Dongyu will not dare to commit!
Money!
What we salt merchants have is silver!
Even before De Shizi came over, those Yangzhou salt merchants who originally had their belongings and wanted to flee to the south of the Yangtze River rose up one after another!
……
At noon, a passenger boat sailing from Songjiang was moored on the wharf in Yangzhou, and after the river boat was moored at the wharf with a length of more than ten zhang and a width of two zhang, the guys on board informed the boat.
"Guest officer, the ship has arrived in Yangzhou City. As soon as they docked at the wharf, they heard from the people on the wharf that De Shizi led 30,000 troops to Yangzhou three days ago, and with his old man's family here, those Dongyu would never dare to come to Yangzhou. ”
"Tokushiko!"
A voice from inside the cabin was surprised, and then someone spoke.
"But the prince of Jinan?"
"But the son of De who killed more than 10,000 deserters?"
"Isn't it him, guest officer, if it weren't for something on the ship, let's go over and see if there is some fairy spirit!"
"Immortal? Can De Shizi really be a fairy? ”
"Immortal Qi, that person is full of murderous energy, I believe it, in the Daming Sect, he is the first one to kill officials and soldiers!"
"That's not it, I heard that he is fierce and vicious, and every time he will drink human blood and eat human liver......"
……
For a while, there were different opinions in the cabin.
"It's a coincidence, so let's go and take a look!"
A moment later, the curtain of the cabin door was lifted, and a white-robed scholar walked out of the cabin, and then another maid in dark green clothes walked out of the cabin, and the cold wind blew the two people's clothes fluttering, like a pair of fairy couples.
The maid who followed the scholar combed her double bun representing her unmarried body, and her eyes looked at the dock in the distance and said in surprise.
"Childe, it's really lively on the dock over there! Didn't people usually look down on the clan? ”
The green-shirted maid was puzzled.
"Doesn't everyone say that he likes to eat human liver and drink human blood?"
"It's just a rumor, it's just that De Shizi is very powerful and feared. But the son of De Shizi killed more than 10,000 people, if my Ming clan is like him, why worry about the world is not quiet, why worry about Liaodong is not restored, and how can there be the current danger of the east captive into the south of the Kou River......"
As he spoke, the white-robed scholar shook his head again and sighed softly.
"It's a pity that he is a ...... of the clan"
The white-robed scholar with a folding fan in his hand tapped his palm lightly with a folding fan in his hand, and then said.
"However, with him stationed in Yangzhou, presumably the most stable place in Jiangbei is here, and the people of Yangzhou are also blessed, at least with him here, Dongyu will never dare to come easily, and nearly one million people inside and outside Yangzhou will naturally be safe."
Just when the two of them stepped on the gangplank and went ashore, a small guy by the dock greeted them and said.
"This son-in-law is from Songjiang, my son-in-law is here to greet you, he can't be separated for a while, and I ask my son-in-law to forgive me!"
When the white-robed scholar heard this, he said to the man.
"Zheng Gongzi is polite."
After that, the two of them got on two small sedan chairs under the guidance of the little guy......
