A small black horse-drawn carriage "Da Da" stopped in front of a small wine shop in front of the West Lake. After stopping the carriage, he pressed his hand on the horse's back, like a dexterous swallow, turned over and landed, walked quickly to the back of the carriage, and lifted the curtain.

"Your Excellency, it's here!"

Zhai Zhe opened his eyes, straightened his clothes, and jumped off the carriage. He had just taken a nap in the carriage, and he was so tired these days that he hadn't slept a few restful nights in half a month.

There was no one at the door of the wine shop, Zhai Zhe walked over and looked around, and saw a scribe in a white robe pouring himself a drink in the tavern near the window, and his cheeks were already slightly red.

"Lord Chen!"

"Yanzhi, I'll be out of sight if you call me like that!" Chen Zilong pushed a wine glass in front of Zhai Zhe.

"Brother Wozi!" Zhai Zhe sat down peacefully.

"Governor Sun is defeated! Zhou Ge is dead! Chen Zilong seemed to cry.

Sun Chuanting was defeated at Tongguan, his life and death were unknown, and Zhai Zhe got the news three days ago. The Qing army invaded Shandong, and Emperor Chongzhen ordered Zhou Yanru to supervise the army to meet the battle. Zhou Yanru knew that the Qing soldiers would inevitably retreat to the outside of the pass after the captivity, so he simply supervised the army to avoid it and drank and had fun in the suburbs of Beijing, but he did not expect that after the Qing soldiers retreated, he was sued by the Jinyi guard, was dismissed from the position of auxiliary, was exiled to the border first, and was ordered to commit suicide a month ago.

"I'm afraid it's not going to be good!" Chen Zilong said very vaguely, and it took all the strength of his body to say these words.

He had been compiling books at home for many years, and he had not been as profligate as he had been in his youth. Because the Qing army invaded Shandong, the road to the capital was impassable, and he failed to take office. Now that the road is open, he is distraught, and his grandmother is seriously ill, so he doesn't want to go, so he has resigned to the court.

Zhai Zhe saw that he was depressed, and comforted him and said: "Fengyang still has four towns in Jiangbei, Zuo Liangyu soldiers are strong and strong, and things are still okay." ”

"I want to get acquainted with Shi Kefa, the secretary of the Liudu Military Department, can Brother Wozi help me introduce me?"

"You want to see Master Shi!" Chen Zilong was a little surprised.

Although Zhai Zhe is the chief soldier with the mark of the Donglin Party, he actually has no substantive friendship with the Donglin Party, and the only familiar Chen Zilong is still due to Xu Du. Several people who first got acquainted in Jiangnan, Zhang Pu, Zhou Yanru and Wu Changshi died one after another, and Ruan Dacheng was a eunuch. Lu Xiangsheng's younger brother Lu Xiangguan has only been admitted to the Jinshi this year, and the road to officialdom has not yet begun.

"Master Shangshu is a senior of Donglin, I have admired it for a long time, but I have never had the opportunity to meet him."

Chen Zilong didn't believe Zhai Zhe's words, he thought about it for a while, and said: "I have been at home for many years, and I don't have a deep friendship with Master Shi, but I have met a few times before, if you want to meet, I can help you introduce you." ”

"So please get in the car, and you and I will go to Nanjing."

"In such a hurry?" Chen Zilong frowned slightly.

Zhai Zhe smiled: "It's not that I'm in a hurry, it's because there is a big event waiting for me in Nanjing." ”

Chen Zilong asked curiously: "What a big deal." ”

"Vice General Xiao of Ning Shaozhen is going to marry a beautiful woman in Nanjing, and I must be there."

Chen Zilong was thinking about it, and when he heard him say this, he didn't like it in his heart, and even the wine in his mouth seemed to have a bitter taste. He saw that Zhai Zhe talked extraordinarily, and since Xu was beheaded, several friends in several societies regarded him as an enemy, making him both lonely and aggrieved, hoping that Zhai Zhe could help him explain to Xu Fuyuan and a few others, but it was difficult to ask for help.

"Please help me!" Zhai Zhe begged for help.

Chen Zilong drank the residual wine in the cup, and replied helplessly: "Okay, I'll accompany you for a while, and I'll go back when I see Master Shi." ”

Zhai Zhe's carriage was spacious, more than enough for two people, the carriage was covered with soft and floral wool blankets, a black waist knife and a long bow hung on the wall of the carriage, and there was a wooden box at the back of the carriage.

Chen Zilong and Zhai Zhe sat in, and Fang Jin carefully urged the carriage to go in the direction of Nanjing. The hot summer has passed, Zhai Zhe lifted a small crack in the car window, and the paddy fields on both sides of the road were full of rice stalks left over from harvesting. The cool autumn breeze blows in. The two people in the car, each with their own thoughts, did not talk much along the way.

"Your Vice Admiral Xiao is going to marry that nobleman's family?" Chen Zilong had nothing to say. He has known Zhai Zhe for several years, and now this general soldier is completely different from other towns in the Ming Dynasty, but has the atmosphere of a Confucian general. During the encirclement and suppression of the Baitou Army, Ning Shaozhen's soldiers and horses were strictly disciplined, so that he was willing to make this friend.

Zhai Zhe also wanted to enliven the embarrassing atmosphere, and said with a smile: "Vice General Xiao is a lover of temperament, and he has no interest in the daughters of those official eunuchs, and the person he wants to marry is very famous." ”

"Who's that?" Chen Zilong heard Zhai Zhe's voice.

"The master of the Meilou!" Zhai Zhe smiled, and immediately added: "It is said that the bride is like a flower, I haven't seen it yet." ”

"It's her!" Chen Zilong raised his eyebrows, leaned his back on the carriage, and then looked at the scenery outside the window that kept receding.

"You know her!"

Chen Zilong nodded faintly, there seemed to be an extra mist in his eyes, and then no matter how much Zhai Zhe tried to find a topic, he was unwilling to speak again.

Xiao Zhiyan's marriage to Gu Mei is not only his own business, but also a major event in Ning Shaojunzhen. Zhai Zhe ordered Liu to fully cover the largest drunken moon building by the Qinhuai River, invite guests, and all the expenses of the wedding banquet will be borne by the business alliance.

If it weren't for Zhai Zhe's promotion, Xiao Zhiyan wouldn't have married Gu Mei so quickly. If it weren't for Zhai Zhe's insistence, and even forced by military orders, Xiao Zhiyan would never agree to hold a wedding banquet with such fanfare.

Marrying a **** is such a big deal, which is extremely inconsistent with Daming's ethos, but he is no longer the first person to do so in Daming's Jiangnan. In the past, Donglin Kui Qian Qianyi married Liu Ruyi, and then Zhu Guobi, the Duke of Baoguo, married Kou Baimen, and these two wedding banquets caused a big sensation in Jiangnan. Whether it is scolding or envy, it makes the two women from **** famous names.

The carriage entered Nanjing and drove directly into the inn opened by the Shang League, and it was Ning Sheng who was in charge of the business of the Shang League in Nanjing, and he had already left a quiet courtyard for Zhai Zhe. The inn was full of soldiers, all of whom came here from Ningshao Town, and specially selected soldiers with dignified appearance and mighty appearance.

Chen Zilong lived here, did not say that he wanted to leave, and was not in a hurry to accompany Zhai Zhe to Shi Kefa.

Gu Mei has a bold personality, has lived by the Qinhuai River for many years, and knows dozens of scholars from the Fushe Society, and there are many scholars who are familiar with good friends, such as Hou Fangyu, Chen Zhenhui and others came to congratulate him. With Gu Mei's temperament and knowledge, he chose to marry a martial artist, which surprised them.

In the hearts of these people, the most reasonable explanation may be that Xiao Zhiyan has not yet married a wife, and if he marries him, he can be the wife of the main family, and the children of a prestigious family like them can only be concubines.

After the news of the marriage spread, Meilou continued to have visitors, and Xiao Zhiyan accompanied Gu Mei to receive visitors there. When two unruly people are together, there is a lot less trouble for mediocrity to disturb themselves. Xiao Zhiyan had his habitual smile on his face, whether it was to Gu Mei's sisters on the banks of the Qinhuai River, or to those scholars who came to congratulate, he was a group of kind.

Inside the house, during the conversation between Gu Mei and a group of sisters, hearty laughter broke out from time to time, and a pair of wonderful eyes bloomed like spring flowers.

Xiao Zhiyan likes Gu Mei, and he can't hide his like. A person doesn't want to find a wife or have children, it's because he hasn't met the right person.

In the past, he only thought that one day he would be able to farm and live in seclusion in a place like Chenjiazhuang, but now there is a woman like Gu Mei as his companion, and there is no regret at all.

The two people in the room had a good conversation.

"Brother Mei, you can be regarded as jumping out. Vice General Xiao is kind and kind, he is a military general from the third grade, and he has not married a wife, so he can't find anyone with a lantern. ”

"He is a martial artist, but he is very in line with my temper and straightforward personality, so I don't need to be careful and serve him carefully in every word, which may not have the advantage of marrying into an official family."

"You're right!" The other sighed softly.

Xiao Zhiyan sat on a chair at the door, staring at a fiery red maple leaf in the Qinhuai River that moved like a snail with the slow-flowing river.

"Brother Xiao!"

"Little brother!"

Xiao Zhiyan used a title that he hadn't used for a long time.

"Lord Chen!" He saw the figure of the person behind Zhai Zhe.

"Who's coming?" Gu Mei's voice came from inside the room.

Zhai Zhe saw a woman walking out of the house, with a high bun, like a flower crown on the head of a peacock, beautiful eyebrows like a crescent moon, a beautiful nose, a fragrant cheek, a dotted cherry lips, and the skin exposed at the neck was crystal clear, like crisp snow, and her body was graceful.

But all of this is to set off that pair of eyes.

That's the eye that can eclipse the moonlight sun! A pool of lake water that can make tens of millions of people ****!

"This is Gu Mei!" Zhai Zhe avoided her eyes and looked behind.

A woman came out after Gu Mei, Zhai Zhe only glanced at it, his chest was like being pressed by a big stone, and the whole person seemed to be suffocated.

"It's you!" The woman snorted and looked in Zhai Zhe's direction.
