Chapter 262: The Reception Banquet

Zhu Qing's words made the game time unavoidable. If he was alone, with this flea skill, few people in the rivers and lakes would have been able to get him, but now that he has a woman by his side, he almost killed his own woman last time, this time, he must not let Qin Xiang fall into danger again.www.biquge.info

"Good! It's all up to you. However, what about the four sisters of Qiu Ju? Although Sai Shiqian promised Zhu Qing to take Qin Xiang away, he thought of the four Qiu Ju sisters who were traveling with him, if the four of them were not arranged, presumably Qin Xiang would not be willing to leave alone.

"Rest assured. I have my own arrangements. Zhu Qingdao said.

Wait for everyone to settle down and rest. Zhu Qing and Xuanwu came to the counter, and the shopkeeper was naturally Zhu Qing's person. Seeing Zhu Qing and Xuanwu coming, he nodded and said, "Big brother, you haven't rested yet?" ”

"I squinted on the boat for a while earlier, and I haven't been sleepy yet. I ask you, who is the man who shouted upstairs? Can you find out? Zhu Qing asked.

"Yes, listening to that person's tone, he is full of energy, not like an ordinary person, and maybe he has some skills." Xuanwu added.

"The two adults are right, that person is indeed not an ordinary person, but the famous 'Fan Mountain Harrier' Gao Jie!" The shopkeeper replied softly.

"What?!" Zhu Qing and Xuanwu said in surprise.

"Gao Jie, the head of the four towns in Jiangbei?" Zhu Qing felt incredible.

"What Jiangbei Four Towns?" Xuanwu and the shopkeeper listened to Zhu Qing's words and asked in surprise. Only then did Zhu Qing realize that at this time, the Ming Dynasty was still Chongzhen's world, and the four towns in Jiangbei were the affairs of the Southern Ming Dynasty.

"Oh, it's okay, it's a great character anyway." Zhu Qing immediately disguised himself, how could he say that Gao Jie would be Nanming's important minister? This is a capital offense of killing the head.

"Who's to say it isn't? It is said that he is still the right-hand man of the 'He Maniac' He Renlong. The shopkeeper said.

"He Renlong?" When Xuanwu heard this, he glanced at Zhu Qing, "Big brother, it seems that the road is narrow." You handed over the He Renlong last time, and I heard that the rivers and lakes are rumoring that this 'Fanshan Harrier' threatens to avenge the 'He Maniac'. ”

"Hmph, don't I have ears? I've heard about this for a long time. I'm not worried that Gao Jie will come to me for revenge, I am worried about another point. Zhu Qing sneered.

"What's the matter?"

"Since you all know that this 'Fanshan Harrier' has taken refuge in He Renlong, you should naturally know where he came from, right? This 'Fanshan Harrier' Gao Jie was originally a subordinate of Li Zicheng, the 'King of Chuang', but later because of his fornication with Li Zicheng's concubine Xing, he was afraid of Li Zicheng and took Xing to He Renlong. Seducing the second sister-in-law, that is a taboo in the rivers and lakes, but this Gao Jie was stunned and took a risk, and now it seems that although he dares to love and hate, his character can also be seen. Zhu Qing shook his head and sneered.

"That's right, this matter did have a turmoil on the rivers and lakes. But it is said that it was quickly suppressed. The shopkeeper said.

"In fact, people on the road say that this Gao Jie is perverse by nature, and although he joined the Ming army, he followed the bad habits of the rogue." Xuanwu's words reminded Zhu Qing of the Gao Jie who had robbed all the way south in history, but when he thought of this, he thought of Shi Kefa, who had a close connection with Gao Jie.

Although Gao Jie was not very well treated by others, and even ate a closed door in Yangzhou, whether it was He Renlong or later Shi Kefa, he was very important to Gao Jie's subordinates, and the so-called grace of knowing the situation, Gao Jie naturally took the initiative to do things for these two people, such as threatening to kill Zhu Qing to avenge He Renlong, and Shi Kefa's regret that he was killed by the Jiangnan gentry in history can be seen that Gao Jie's ability is extraordinary.

Thinking of this, Zhu Qing couldn't help but think of Shi Kefa's words about the loss of Gao Jie, "The Central Plains cannot be restored." Suddenly, Zhu Qing's heart was full of contradictions.

"Big brother? What's wrong? Seeing Zhu Qing suddenly pronounce such words, Xuanwu was puzzled.

Zhu Qing shook his head, "It's nothing, I suddenly remembered a poem." I read it casually. That's right. Don't talk about people's faults, sit quietly and think about your own mistakes. In any case, Gao Jie voted for our Ming army after all, although he and I may have a personal grudge, but this is an extraordinary time, the enemy of the enemy is a friend, and we strive for all the strength we can fight for inside and outside. Therefore, tell the brothers not to take the lead in stirring up trouble unless they have to. Zhu Qing admonished.

Xuanwu nodded and said, "Understood!" ”

"But, big brother, if he finds out that we are staying in the Ningzhuang Inn, especially you. What to do? Xuanwu was still worried.

"If that's the case, I'll take care of it. I'm most worried about Lin Bai. Zhu Qingdao said.

"Yes! I will command that no one should act lightly. Xuanwu said firmly.

Zhu Qing nodded, "Hmm." You go back to your room and rest first, and I'll go outside. ”

Xuanwu nodded and went upstairs.

Zhu Qinggang wanted to go out, but suddenly remembered something and turned around and asked the shopkeeper again, "By the way, it's so good, why did Gao Jie come back to Ningzhuang Inn to stay overnight?" ”

"Big brother, you don't know, it is said that a new batch of Suzhou beauties came to Lichun Courtyard yesterday. I don't know who leaked the rumors, but it is rumored that Lichun Courtyard will hold a reception banquet tomorrow, and at that time, those Suzhou beauties will make their debut on stage in Lichun Courtyard. Didn't you say it just now, this Gao Jie is good at this, otherwise how would he do that behind Li Zicheng's back. No, in order to feast the eyes and learn to steal from cats, many young masters in Yangzhou crowded around here. This Gao Jie naturally can't be left behind. Ningzhuang Inn is not the most magnificent inn in Yangzhou, but it is indeed the most magnificent and high-grade inn near Lichun Courtyard. How can Gao Jie be a dwarf in front of a beauty? So booked a room early and waited. The shopkeeper explained.

"I see," Zhu Qing muttered as he slowly walked out ......of the inn.

Walking out of the inn, Zhu Qing looked towards the alley, and the three big characters of "Lichun Courtyard" were illuminated by red lanterns with ambiguous light. Zhu Qing walked over unconsciously.

Lichun Courtyard is the place where Zhu Qing's dream begins, and the first thing he sees when he wakes up is the girl in Lichun Courtyard. Later, he was rescued by Chen Yuanyuan in Lichun Courtyard, and fell in love with her at first sight, went north with Chen Yuanyuan's ferry, and joined Jinyiwei for a man's promise and dream. The original ideal seems to have long been shattered, and a new ideal has been derived, moving from the love of children to the righteousness of the country. Zhu Qing didn't know whether to laugh or sigh at the impermanence of this world.

Zhu Qing remembered the past as he walked. Unknowingly, he came to the door of Lichun Temple, but he didn't go in, and he didn't even approach. Because he's not here to reminisce.

Zhu Qing hid in the night, learned three bird calls, the second floor of Lichun Courtyard suddenly opened a window, poked out a head, looked at it smartly, and then the whole body jumped out of the window, and landed without making any sound in a few steps. The man glanced around a few times, then called softly, "Big brother? ”

This is the voice of the race time.

Just when Sai Shiqian was looking for Zhu Qing everywhere, Zhu Qing, who was hiding behind the bushes, suddenly flashed out and gently patted Sai Shiqian's back. He was so surprised that he almost screamed.

"Shhhh Come here! Zhu Qing called softly, and pulled the game time move closer to the hidden place.

"Why did you get out?" In fact, Sai Shiqian had already known that Zhu Qing and his entourage had arrived in Yangzhou, but Zhu Qing said that he would find Sai Shiqian by himself if there was something. Therefore, the race time moved without rashness.

"I'm looking for you."

"What?"

"Reception feast."

"What? You get it? ”

Zhu Qing nodded, and then asked, "What do you guys think?" I think the current situation is too hidden to be afraid of it, so it's better for you to have some kind of reception banquet. Zhu Qing's words were harsh.

"It's my fault for this, I couldn't stop it for a while. As soon as we arrived in Yangzhou City, Qin Xiang asked an acquaintance to come and inform the old man of Lichun Courtyard to go and pick it up, but I didn't think that the old man said that he would reunite with Qin Xiang and other good sisters after a long absence, and he wanted to give them a good reception. And on the way to greet us, it spread the news, and when it came to us, the news had spread all over the fireworks alley in Yangzhou. We thought it might be that everyone had a meal, and it was lively, so we didn't pay much attention to it, and we didn't alarm you. Sai Shiqian said helplessly.

"Hey, do you know how big this is?" Zhu Qingdao.

"What's wrong? Isn't it serious? Sai Shiqian worried.

"Almost all the young masters in Yangzhou City gathered at the nearby inns, almost crowding the inns on these streets."

"Huh? No way? How serious is it? Listening to Zhu Qingyi, Sai Shiqian felt more and more that things were not as simple as he imagined.

"Actually, everyone has a love for beauty, and it is normal for a few girls in Qin Xianglou to make Yangzhou City empty. However, there are people here who cannot be seen. Zhu Qingdao said.

"Who?"

"Gao Jie."

"'Panshan Harrier'?" When I heard it, I was also surprised.

"Now you know how troublesome things are, right?" Zhu Qing's tone calmed down.

"Hey, I've heard of this 'Mountain Harrier' for a long time. I heard that he took over Liang Zi with you because of He Renlong's death, and it seems that we have caused big trouble this time. "Sai Shiqian was a little self-reproachful.

Zhu Qing patted him on the shoulder, "I came to you, not to blame you." I'm here to tell you the situation and ask you to take your sister-in-law away. ”

"Leave?" When he heard this, he asked in surprise and fell into deep thought.

"'Panshan Harrier'?" When I heard it, I was also surprised.

"Now you know how troublesome things are, right?" Zhu Qing's tone calmed down.

"Hey, I've heard of this 'Mountain Harrier' for a long time. I heard that he took over Liang Zi with you because of He Renlong's death, and it seems that we have caused big trouble this time. "Sai Shiqian was a little self-reproachful.

Zhu Qing patted him on the shoulder, "I came to you, not to blame you." I'm here to tell you the situation and ask you to take your sister-in-law away. ”

"Leave?" When he heard this, he asked in surprise and fell into deep thought.
