Spring is the season when a hundred flowers bloom and compete for beauty, and it is also a day for animals to come into heat, and humans as higher animals are no exception. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
The capital, located in the northern part of the Great Zhou, is very busy, preparing for the marriage of Ji Qiyun and Xiang Rong. The emperor's wedding is extraordinary, and it must not be hasty, and every step must be held in strict accordance with the standards, especially in terms of etiquette, which is a bit cumbersome and exaggerated. The emperor, who was the protagonist of the wedding, became the busiest person, and in addition to state affairs, there were too many things for him to decide. For a while, even the vassal kings of various places had no time to pay attention to it, and devoted himself to the preparation of the marriage. As a result, the undercurrent that was still surging suddenly fell silent.
At the same time, Jinling in the south of the Great Zhou Dynasty also began to get busy, and the annual Hundred Flowers Festival arrived. Qinglou pavilions from all over the country flocked to Jinling City with their own Oiran. This is a grand event, in the Qinglou industry, there is nothing more important than the Hundred Flowers Club, as long as their own girls can rush into the top three, they will get not only a generous ransom fee, but more importantly, the name can be launched in the entire Great Zhou territory, so as to attract high rollers to come, the wealth is not a problem.
As the host, Shen Mo naturally couldn't be idle.
The identity of the participants of the Hundred Flowers Festival is not simple, and the Qinglou opened by individuals is generally not eligible to participate. The opening of a green house does not require high personal ability, and the most important thing is capital investment, with money to buy girls, to spend a huge price, and to use all resources to train girls. This kind of huge investment is not something that can be borne by individuals, and most of the people who come have noble backgrounds.
In order to make this year's White Flower Festival a success, Shen Mo deliberately opened up a vacant land on the shore of Xuanwu Lake and built a huge manor, with more than a dozen areas such as the main hall area, the partial hall area, the flower viewing area and the backyard accommodation area. This manor was built for a whole year, and at least more than 100,000 taels were invested before and after, and it took the painstaking efforts of skilled craftsmen, so it is extremely magnificent and chic.
Jiang Yun and Ji Feng have not been at all easier than Shen Mo recently, Cui Yuliang is the biggest thorn in Jinling City, although pulling it out can be relieved, it does not mean that you can be carefree from now on. After taking full control of Jinling Mansion, the two did not stay, and immediately stretched out their hands into the other yamen. At the same time, Jiang Yun informed Ling Bing and asked him to pay close attention to the every move of all the officials of the non-Wu Wang faction, even their subordinates, family members, friends, and even hired family members were not negligent, and the whole monitoring was bound to make it impossible for the news of Jinling to reach the capital.
Ji Feng's request is very simple, to integrate Jiangnan officialdom in the shortest possible time, except for the hardcore supporters of King Wu, there is no place for even the neutral faction, under the dark box operation of Jiang Yun's reminder to press the envoy, they are dismissed one after another, and there is not even a place to redress their grievances, because their news cannot go out of Jiangnan at all.
At the same time, the township warriors in various prefectures and counties were also constantly recruiting, and without the interference of Jinling Mansion, Ji Feng simply revised the previous announcement and directly expanded the township warrior army from 50,000 to 100,000. Now Jiangnan is not short of money, what is lacking is time, once Ji Qiyun's marriage is settled, I am afraid that he will have to fight with the vassal king after vacating his hand, and the day of the turmoil in the Great Zhou will not be too far away. Ji Feng must take precautions, and no matter what, he must ensure that Jiangnan can have absolute self-protection in the troubled times.
The eldest brother wants to fight for his life with the new emperor Ji Qiyun, Jiang Yun already knows this. There is no right or wrong in his heart, only the difference between relatives and relatives, who kisses and who is sparse, do you need to say? Therefore, he naturally became the number one thug under the command of Wu Wangfu, and it really reached the extent that people blocked and killed, and the Buddha blocked and killed the Buddha, without any scruples. Recently, he has been like a chicken blood, and when he opens his eyes every day, he is full of fighting spirit, and his whole body seems to have endless strength.
Early this morning, Jiang Yun slept lazily, got up and washed up, and was about to go out to run errands, but he didn't want Xu Chengsi to find the door first.
He was dressed in a rather strange outfit, wearing a tattered coarse cloth shirt, with two square patches on it, and two twisted cloth belts intertwined around his waist, giving him the appearance of a poor person. He was followed by a young man in his thirties, with an ordinary appearance, slightly drooping his head, and following him without saying a word.
"Jiang Yun, what about people?" Xu Chengsi entered the courtyard gate, and his steps kept rushing straight to the hall.
Jiang Yun walked out of the side room and greeted him slowly. "Well, why do you have time to come to me today?"
"Let's go, let's go in." Xu Chengsi took the lead, walked into the hall and turned around to close the door, and then took the leisure to look Jiang Yun up and down: "What's the matter?" Ready to head out? ”
"Well, go to the camp outside the city, and today I transferred a group of newly recruited village warriors, planning to receive training from the regular army to see how the quality is."
Xu Chengsi was stunned when he heard this, looked at him in disbelief and said, "What day is today?" ”
"Days?" Jiang Yun shook his head blankly.
"Today is the day when the annual Hundred Flowers Festival begins, and you went to train the troops?" Xu Chengsi slapped his forehead and sighed, "Can you do something serious?" ”
“。。。”
"Alright, come with me."
"Still going?" When Jiang Yun heard this, his head swayed like a rattle. "Have you forgotten what happened last time? Luo Er finally forgave me, if she caught me in the Qinglou again, she would definitely kill me. ”
"You're right." Xu Chengsi nodded sympathetically. "If you are caught again, it is estimated that you will not be able to escape death. But it's okay, let's be careful and don't get caught. As he spoke, he said, "Xiaohu, come here." ”
The young man guarding the door hurriedly walked up when he heard this.
"Do you hear me?" Xu Chengsi looked at him and said.
The young man named Xiaohu pondered for a moment and nodded.
"Yes." Xu Chengsi responded lightly, and suddenly changed his words and shouted loudly: "Jiang Yun, what are you doing inside?" ”
“。。。” Jiang Yun was stunned. "What are you doing?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Hu spoke, and there was a slight obscene feeling in his tone: "Hey, you're taking a bath, do you want to come in and wash together?" ”
As soon as these words came out, Jiang Yun was completely blindsided. This little beard, whether it is the voice, tone or tone, is almost exactly the same as him, even if the imitation is not ten, ninety out of five is not a big problem... His eyes widened in disbelief, "This is?" ”
Xu Chengsi smiled mysteriously and glanced at Xiao Hu, who hurriedly arched his hand and said: "Master Qiqi, the ancestral inheritance of the villain is the skill of ventriloquism." Whether it is birds and beasts, or human words, they can imitate eighty or ninety. ”
"Yes, I hired this young man at a high price." Xu Chengsi smiled and said, "As soon as you go out with me, let him stay in the bathhouse, in case Xiao Luo comes to you, let him deal with it?" Hey, you're not married yet, Xiao Luo won't rush in openly, right? ”
"Then you..."
"Don't worry, I also put a person in the grocery store, and Jin'er can handle it when she comes."
“。。。” Talent! In order to go to the Qinglou, I am afraid that he has done everything.
"What doubts?"
"It's gone." Jiang Yun thought for a while and said, "But what the eldest brother commands, I have to ... ”
"Hey, big brother is one step ahead and has already gone, how can he miss such a grand event?"
"Go?"
"Yes."
"That's it." Jiang Yun gritted his teeth and was about to walk out. "It's good to relax after working for so many days."
"Wait." Xu Chengsi hurriedly pulled him down. "You're just going out? If acquaintances recognize it and leak the news to the ears of those women, it will be another trouble. As he spoke, he took the cloth bag off his mustache's shoulder, opened it and handed Jiang Yun a set of clothes, a set of tattered clothes that were on par with him. Hey, put this on... Talent is foolproof. ”
“。。。”
Looking at Xu Chengsi in front of him, Jiang Yun suddenly remembered an old saying - "Greed makes people progress." "Under the purging of desire, people who are as stupid as pigs on weekdays will gradually become as fine as monkeys, and the ancients did not deceive me!
