Chapter 309: Wuchang Mansion
Jiang Fa and Cuiyu asked Li Guo to order the mandarin duck spectrum, and both of them were unexpected. Since then, the two of them have followed Li loyally.
Jiang Fa is straightforward, which has a disadvantage, but in Li Guo's eyes, it is a good thing. Jiang Fa once said that if he and Cuiyu were spared, he would be willing to be a cow and a horse, a slave and a servant for Li Guo, and Jiang Fa did it in his life.
Since then, Jiang Fa has lowered his own value, refusing to sit on an equal footing with Li Guo's other generals, and has always stood respectfully behind Li Guo, that is, everyone sat down, and he also stood and refused to sit down.
Li Guo didn't like this, and said to Jiang Fa, "Jiang Fa, if I let you sit, you can sit, there are not so many rules." ”
But after all, Jiang Fa's etiquette has always been humble, not to mention that Li Guo is a little uncomfortable, and the generals around Li Guo are also funny when they look at it.
Once, Zhang Ding joked to Jiang Fa, "Jiang Fa, you look like this all day long, how can you have a little bit of courage!" Now we are marching, no better than abiding by the etiquette in the old camp, you don't have to be like this, as long as you are loyal, the tiger master doesn't care about those irlevant. ”
Jiang Fa couldn't help shaking his head, "Why is it irrelevant?" When I was cornered, the tiger master took me in, how dare I be disrespectful to him now? Besides, I, an ugly ghost with a black charcoal head, if it weren't for the tiger master, where would I be able to marry a daughter-in-law? Hehe, your name is Tiger Master Li's father, you are the turtle son of the Tiger Master, what about me being the turtle grandson of the Tiger Master? Hey! ”
Zhang Ding was amused and scolded, "I don't like to speak!" Fuck whatever you want! ”
As a result, everyone became accustomed to Jiang Fa's style.
On this day, I saw that I was about to arrive at Wuchang Mansion. Zhang Ding and others arranged for the team to lurk outside Wuchang City first. Because Li Guo wanted to go to Wuchang Mansion to have a look, he had to make some arrangements.
In the rear camp. Only Li Guo and Liu Ru are a few female dependents such as the Red Lady, as well as Nie Xin, Chen Wangting and Jiang Fa. and Li Guo's personal soldiers.
Li Guo was bored, so he chatted with Chen Wangting and Nie Xin, Liu Rusi, the Red Lady and Tarina sat aside, Li Guo didn't care about the rules of not showing up. Jiang Fa naturally lowered his hands and stood behind Li Guo, holding his club upright. Everyone is not surprised.
During the chat, Li Guo unconsciously talked about Chen Wangting's martial arts, "In my opinion, Brother Chen's martial arts are amazing, and he can be called the first in martial arts!" Li Guo did not fully express his stance because Chen Wangting took refuge in himself. There are more honorific titles in the title
Chen Wangting owed his body, but he called Li Guo as a general subordinate, "Tiger Master, I don't dare to be the first in martial arts, but it is true that I have traveled all over the north and south of the Yellow River, and I have not met an opponent." Chinese martial arts, like its culture, are profound and vast, and each martial arts has its own uniqueness, which has been said since ancient times. There is no high or low boxing technique, and there is a high or low skill. ”
This is very true, Li Guozhi nodded.
"Like Jiang Fa's leg skills, Jiang Fa is naturally not my opponent when he fights with me. But if Jiang Fa wanted to run, I couldn't catch up. Chen Wangting said Jiang Fa.
Nie Xin said: "The kung fu of the two of you is extremely high, if you train the soldiers of my Tiger Army, everyone can be like you." Then you can't be beaten. ”
Li couldn't help laughing, how can this Chinese martial art be said to be able to be practiced and practiced. Technology is still needed to dominate the world, but it is feasible to let Chen Wangting and Jiang Fa train a special squad.
Really. Jiang Fa said: "It's hard to practice! Since I was six years old, I started practicing the leg technique, and I had lead bags tied to my legs and body, and as I got older, the lead bags became heavier and heavier. But after a few years, it has been business as usual. When I was eighteen years old, I took off all the lead bags and ran so fast that no one could beat me, but it took more than ten years of effort. ”
"Your light skills are very good, in addition to running fast, can you jump over the ridge?" The red lady asked.
Jiang Fa said proudly, "Madam Hong, of course!" I see that you also have some light skills, but the woman's strength is weak, I'm afraid the strength will not last long! Jiang Fa was once tied up by the red rope of the red lady, and he was a little angry in his heart.
The red lady's face flushed slightly, and she did not refute Jiang Fa calling her Mrs. Hong. However, Jiang Fa was straightforward, saying that her light skills had no stamina, but the red lady was a little unhappy, so she secretly pondered in her heart that she wanted to compete with Jiang Fa.
Everyone didn't know what the red lady thought, so the topic changed and talked about other things.
Zhang Ding and the others, who had been arranged in advance, had already arranged things near Wuchang and sent someone to invite Li Guo and his party to enter Wuchang. Zhang Ding and the others disappeared near Wuchang and did not publicize it, because Wuchang Mansion was a big city, and for the safety of Li Guo, they were all silent.
Wuchang Mansion is under the jurisdiction of the political envoy of Hu Guangbu, and has always been an important commercial and military town, and it is extremely prosperous. On the Yangtze River, Wuchang Mansion and Nanjing Mansion are one west and one east, and are important hubs controlling most of China.
At the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, because of the importance of Wuchang Mansion, Zhu Yuanzhang, the Taizu of the Ming Dynasty, named his sixth son Zhu Zhen as the king of Chu, and the fief was located in Wuchang Mansion. Later, the Ming Dynasty cut down the domain, and the king of Chu followed Zhu Zhen's teachings and was loyal to the imperial court. His descendants tried every means to flatter the imperial family when their relationship with the imperial family was becoming increasingly thin, so that the feudal feud of the king of Chu was extended. By the end of the Ming Dynasty, the King of Chu has been entrenched in Wuchang City for more than 200 years, and Tai, Shu and Zhou are known as the four major feudal feuds of the Ming Dynasty.
Although the local officials of Wuchang Mansion were ordered by the imperial court and had the duty of secretly monitoring the behavior of the King of Chu, they still maintained a subordinate relationship with the Chu Palace. The provincial, prefectural, and county government offices at all levels in Wuchang Mansion were built around the Chu Wang's Mansion, and local officials at all levels in Huguang greeted the Chu King everywhere. Therefore, the power of the king of Chu is unmatched in Wuchang.
The palace of the king of Chu covers a vast area, and the architecture is also extremely luxurious. The kings of Chu in successive dynasties wantonly annexed land and exploited the merchants. Even the high-ranking officials, guards, and treasures of the Chu Palace, all of them became the prominent families of Jiangxia in the past. Therefore, whether it is Wuchang Mansion, including Hankou, Hanyang and the surrounding areas, it is deeply influenced by the Chu Palace.
But Li Guo didn't think about the king of Chu, he came to Wuchang Mansion to admire it.
In the original time and space, the great man whom Li Guo admired very much, once passed by Wuchang and wrote a poem, Li Guo was very familiar with that word, which was "Water Tune Song Head. Swimming:
'Only then did he drink Changsha water and eat Wuchang fish. Thousands of miles of the Yangtze River crossed, and the eyes of Chu Tianshu were extremely eye-catching. Regardless of the wind and waves, it is better than a leisurely stroll, and today you have to be free. The son said on the river: The deceased is like Sifu!
The wind moves, the turtle and snake are quiet, and the ambition is ambitious. A bridge flies north and south, and the moat becomes a thoroughfare. The stone wall of the Xijiang River is erected, the clouds and rain of Wushan are cut off, and the high gorge is out of the Ping Lake. The goddess should be unharmed, and the world should be shocked. ’
Although this poem did not match the situation at the time, it aroused Li Guo's desire to go to Wuchang, so Li Guo stopped near Wuchang. (To be continued......)
