Xu Ziling has memories of two lives, but no matter the past or present life, it is as vivid as yesterday, and it is difficult for him to distinguish whether it is reality or a dream.

The appearance of Fang Baihua and Zhao Gou is also very incredible. The older sister and younger brother in his "previous life" memory appeared in this world, their faces almost unchanged from their previous lives, and their temperaments were slightly different but still roughly the same, which is not surprising.

They are all sisters and brothers in their previous lives, but before the memory awakening, Xu Ziling also had a sense of familiarity when he first saw Fang Baihua, but when he first saw Zhao Gou, he didn't have any special feelings, just an ordinary rich son. This is also what he has always doubted, because of the delay in going south to help Fang Baihua to assist in the uprising, he was left behind.

But now Zhao Gou's letter reminds him of all the incomprehensible things before. Although there are many places in the Great Song Dynasty of this world that are different from the Northern Song Dynasty in the memory of the previous life, the state system is still largely unchanged, the style of emphasizing literature over military force is still strong, and the Confucian values of "heaven and earth are princes and teachers" are still deeply rooted in the hearts of literati.

As a prince, Zhao Gou, who grew up in the environment of the Song Dynasty, is naturally familiar with Confucianism, and his sense of belonging and identity to the Song Dynasty will naturally not be less, even if he has no respect for his brother, the awe of his father Zhao Ji is definitely there, but he actually shielded Xu Ziling because of his sense of familiarity, not only did not reveal Xu Ziling's identity, but also used the relationship of the secret investigation department to cover up.

This made Xu Ziling can't help but think of the awakening of his memory, could it be that Zhao Gou has also awakened some memories? However, judging from his previous performance, he doesn't look like a person with memories of the afterlife.

And Fang Baihua, whether it was the first time she met or the next goodbye, did not show extraordinary kindness to Xu Ziling, it was only because Xu Ziling's preconceived enthusiasm was recognized by her that she really regarded Xu Ziling as a younger brother......

The matter is too mysterious, Xu Ziling is puzzled, and only hopes that he can ask for clarification the next time he meets Zhao Gou.

When Xu Ziling and the others arrived in Jiangning, the Liangshan army had already crossed the Yangtze River and arrived at the Dantu realm in Runzhou.

Driven by Song Jiang, the people of Liangshan almost poured out, with a total of more than 30 leaders and more than 5,000 soldiers.

In order to make the march speed the fastest, the Liangshan army was lightly armed, belonging to the state of rapid marching, carrying little heavy grain and grass, all the way with the emperor's holy decree and seal to the state capital along the road to "borrow grain".

But after arriving at Runzhou Dantu, the army was only a few hundred miles away from Hangzhou. As the soldiers often say, "the three armies have not moved, the grain and grass go first", which is the golden iron law of marching and fighting since ancient times, Song Jiang is naturally like a mirror to this, and immediately let the army temporarily camp in Dantu County, and send the leaders to raise grain and grass from the surrounding states and counties.

The supply of grain and grass for the regular army that was usually mobilized from other places in wartime was the responsibility of the imperial court and the local transit envoys of the marching army. However, the Liangshan army was a "regular army" that had just been recruited, and the magistrates did not buy it at all, so Song Jiang and others had to take the holy decree and the emperor's letter to collect grain and grass everywhere.

The cities and counties near Dantu are relatively surplus in granaries, only Jurong, Danyang, Jiangyin, Jinling, Jiangning and other prefectures and counties, among which Jiangning City is the most. Therefore, Song Jiang sent the largest number of leaders to Jiangning to ask for grain and grass from the prefect of Jiangning, among which there happened to be Mu Hong, Zhang Shun, and Zhang Heng......

Even though the news of the rebellion in the south had already spread, the city of Jiangning was still bustling, the markets were as bustling as ever, and the peddlers and pawns were still running and shouting in the streets and alleys, except for the tedious entry and exit of the city gates, there was no atmosphere of war in the city.

At night, the pastime places along the Qinhuai River, such as Qinglou Liquor Shop and Goolan Washe, are still bright and green, and there are plenty of people. There is a great "businesswoman who doesn't know the hatred of the country, and she still sings across the river. The meaning of "garden flower" is in it.

After a day's journey, Xu Ziling and others were already physically and mentally exhausted, no matter how beautiful and lively the night market was, no one had the heart to go shopping. Just after the end of the day, the girls washed up and went to bed to rest.

Only Xu Ziling and his master Zhou Wei were still chatting in the courtyard.

"Master, what day are you going to set for my wedding with Ming Xia?" Chatting and chatting, Xu Ziling changed his words.

Zhou Qi's eyebrows moved slightly, and he said lightly: "Don't worry, I'll go to a few Taoist priests tomorrow to ask and see which days are suitable for marriage." ”

Xu Ziling looked embarrassed and said with a bitter face: "Where am I in a hurry?!" It's not your ...... yet"

Zhou Wei glanced at him and said coldly: "When you first learned martial arts, as a teacher, you asked the immortal master of Ran Mountain to secretly tell your fortune, saying that you kid has been lucky all his life, but there is a great calamity in this luck, and if you don't do it, you kid will have to die on a woman." Now that you have found Li Yatou, it is better to get married to her as soon as possible, so as not to cause more trouble in the future. ”

"Peach Blossom Tribulation?! This, this can't be," Xu Ziling said in surprise, "The only one I always like is Ming Xia." ”

Zhou Kui said disdainfully: "In this world, men with ability are the masters of three wives and four concubines, and now you only like Li Yatou, it may be true, but it is hard to guarantee that you will not like other women in the future." The old man has been seventy years, in these things, can't you still be able to resist you, a hairy boy who has not yet reached the crown? ”

Xu Ziling was a little stunned, and hesitated, "I...... It's not that I don't want to marry Ming Xia as soon as possible, it's just that I promised Aunt Qing, the housekeeper of Alum Tower, in Bianliang before, and let her be our high hall when I married Ming Xia. ”

Hearing the title of "Aunt Qing", Zhou Wei was a little surprised and said, "Aunt Qing? Is it Li Qingqing? ”

"Well...... I don't know Aunt Qing's full name, I only know that she is a steward of Alum Tower, her real identity seems to be quite extraordinary, and she took great care of Ming Xia before she left with me, and treated her as her own daughter," said Xu Ziling puzzled, "Didn't Ming Xia tell your master?" ”

Zhou Wei shook his head and said: "Your kid is an elm head, these things are never glorious things for women, I am your master and elder, how can she mention the details of these things to me." But listening to you say this, you can be sure that she is Li Qingqing, the famous Oiran in the capital back then. ”

This is what Xu Ziling didn't expect, he has the memory of two lives, and in this life, he has not had much understanding of the world with Zhou Kui, so that the class concept of this era has almost no impact on him, and his consciousness is still in the era of "everyone is equal" in his memory, and he is not as lowly as the people of this era for the woman in the dust.

After thinking about it for a while, Xu Ziling smiled and said, "Aunt Qing was the Oiran back then? Could it be that the master had an affair with Aunt Qing when he was young? ”

Zhou Wei glared at him lightly, and sighed: "When she was peerless, she was a teacher who played a fist as a master, where could she see it." However, as a teacher, I was fortunate to see her a few times, even if it was just a glimpse, the beauty of the world she showed is still unforgettable. ”

Xu Ziling covered his mouth and smiled: "Master, it's better to wait for the matter to be settled, Ming Xia and I will go to Bianliang to remarry, and then we will treat Aunt Qing and you as a high hall." Maybe there is still a chance to match you and achieve a 'twilight love'? ”

Even when he heard the phrase "twilight love" for the first time, Zhou Kui instantly understood Xu Ziling's thoughts, and scolded with a smile: "When did you kid learn these nonsense?" If the teacher is twenty years younger, he will not feel that this matter is inappropriate, but the teacher is now over the age of old and is already a half-buried person, where is there any 'twilight love'? But it's a good thing to be your high hall with her. ”

Listening to Zhou Wei going around and around, he still agreed, Xu Ziling smiled when he smiled: "Then you agreed?" ”

Zhou Wei knew what he was thinking, nodded slightly, and stopped talking.

In order to avoid Zhou Kui's remorse, Xu Ziling hurriedly stood up from the chair, left a sentence "Master, I'll go back to the room to sleep first", and ran to the house.

Zhou Wei watched him run back to the room like a child, smiled lightly, and then turned his head to look at the starry sky, the smile on his face gradually solidified, and finally turned into a few wisps of melancholy......

Early the next morning, when the women were still sleeping, Xu Ziling had already taken the red sky and got up in the courtyard for "morning exercise".

The early winter sun shines on people's faces, but they don't feel the slightest warmth, and what invades their minds is the biting cold in the air. But the industrious people were not afraid of the cold, and they carried their burdens early and began to walk the streets and alleys, selling breakfast.

After practicing for an hour, Xu Ziling withdrew Chixiao and sat on the stone bench in the courtyard, intending to rest for a while.

At this time, a room suddenly opened, Xu Ziling turned his head to look, but saw Yue'er rubbing her hair and yawning and walking out, sitting on the stone bench next to Xu Ziling.

Yue'er cocked her nose, took a few deep breaths of the fresh morning air, and when she saw Xu Ziling looking at her, her little face blushed: "Look at what!" ”

Xu Ziling smiled: "I thought you were going to do some kind of prank when you got up so early." ”

But seeing Yue'er's flat mouth, she said with disdain: "A country girl who doesn't know anything, I don't bother to bother with her, she's just ......"

Yue'er was talking and found that Xu Ziling was staring behind her, so she turned her head and found that Yao Mengling was walking over with a bowl of porridge.

"Xu Gongzi hasn't eaten breakfast yet, I cooked some porridge, you can eat a little." Yao Mengling said softly.

Xu Ziling happened to be hungry, so he nodded and said, "It just so happens that I ......."

"Oops! I'm so hungry that my stomach is flat, so I'll eat first! ”

Before Xu Ziling finished speaking, he saw Yue'er snatch the bowl over, and after taking a sip, she spit on Yao Mengling: "It's so hot, you want to burn people to death." ”

Yao Mengling said angrily: "How can anyone drink porridge like you, hold a bowl and drink it directly, vomit me and don't say anything, and blame my porridge for being hot!" ”

Yue'er stood up and said unrelentingly: "Don't you know if it's cooler and then bring it over?" You're okay to drink it for me, what if you burn the old man? ”

Seeing her strong words, Yao Mengling's face turned red and she was speechless for a while.

"Okay, Yue'er, don't make trouble," Xu Ziling pressed the arrogant Yue'er back to the stone bench and said to Yao Mengling: "Is there much in the pot, give me some more." ”

Yao Mengling was stunned for a moment, nodded again and again, and said, "There are still some, I'll bring them over immediately." With that, he hurriedly turned around and ran towards the kitchen.

After Yao Mengling left, Xu Ziling was about to say a few words about Yue'er, but heard her mutter: "Isn't it just that you have big breasts, what's the big deal." ”

Xu Ziling was stunned for a moment, and the words that came to his mouth were held back for a while.
