The Jia family's ancestral house in Jinling is not far from the Zhen family, more than two miles away.

It's just a turn.

In addition, there was no curfew in Jinling, which had been in Chengping for many years, so Jia Hui simply went home.

The huge guard of honor walked on the street surrounded by four carriages, causing passers-by to avoid on both sides, looking at this army with fear and envy.

This is what the play says, is the Vermilion Bird riding of the great general Jia Hui?

Looking at the Suzaku banner raised in the wind at the front of the team, the pedestrians were talking.

The soldiers also heard the discussion of the pedestrians, and they straightened up, becoming more and more proud.

Not long after, two hundred and seventy cavalry soldiers surrounded Jia Hui and returned to the Dunhuang County Mansion.

Jia Yucun and Tan Ji have also been waiting in Yingtai Hall for a long time. Seeing the slightly drunk Jia Hui walking in, he hurriedly stepped forward to support Jia Hui and sent him to the main seat, and the two naturally sat on the left seat.

"General, what did the old lady say about the Zhen family?" Tan Ji poured another cup of jasmine tea for Jia Hui and handed it to Jia Hui.

"Well, it's about the same as the results of the embroidery investigation, and there is a lot of research on what the Zhen family did... Exculpate.

But it's normal, after all, the old lady is the wife of the Zhen family, so she naturally wants to excuse the Zhen family.

Now it seems that the Zhen family and the Jiangnan camp have been calculated. Jia Hui drank all the iced flower tea and turned his head to look at Jia Yucun.

"There is really something wrong with those two shopkeepers!" Jia Yucun frowned.

"Definitely, the two shopkeepers actually have a large team of people to help them clean up their whereabouts, according to their style of acting, it looks like they are running the rivers and lakes. This Jianghu people are involved in the affairs of the court..."Tan Ji looked at Jia Hui worriedly.

"Jianghu, it's the group of people who failed to stand in line at the end of the Liang Dynasty and were beaten as the so-called... Demon Dao wants to do something? Jia Hui opened the fan and fanned it lightly towards herself.

"Demon Dao? Is it Manichaeism or something? "Jia Yucun came to be interested, when he was young, he also fantasized about becoming a chivalrous and righteous knight, even if he was middle-aged, he was quite curious about the rivers and lakes.

"Manichaeism? How many years has it been since Manichaeism was destroyed? Besides, there are actually very few people in these religious types of demons! ”

The boundaries between rivers and lakes and temples have always been unclear, especially in troubled times.

Today's so-called Demon Dao, in fact, most of them are the losers of the Liang Mo Dragon Battle, and the Demon Sect in the true sense actually accounts for only a small part.

The Jianghu sect also has to eat, especially the land-sitting households who have broken away from the category of martial arts halls and become "sects", and they are like big landlords, who own a lot of land.

But since they own large tracts of land, whether they want to or not, they will be involved in the process of land annexation.

At this time, the sects were no different from the gentry, the only difference was that they had a certain amount of force.

In that case, what should the emerging sect do if it wants to develop? Of course, I did it with a knife!

As far as Jia Hui knows, the time of disappearance of the vast majority of the famous factions that were destroyed basically coincides with the time of the change of dynasties.

A reshuffle of the land doesn't matter whether you are a temple or a river. Since you've failed, I'm sorry, your land is mine!

The most recent reshuffle is the chaotic era of the end of the cold season.

There is no internal force in this world, and under the encirclement and suppression of the army, it is already powerful to be able to last for a day.

Therefore, even the Jianghu sect is difficult to support alone, and can only directly send people to participate in the competition, or indirectly send people to join the supporting team.

If you win, you will naturally protect your family business, and if you lose, it will naturally be the "magic way" of the new dynasty.

And those victorious sects are naturally the new "righteous path of the rivers and lakes" and start a new round of "good and evil" confrontation.

The defeated old sects were naturally invincible to the victors with official endorsements. However, due to the addition of a large number of remnants of the previous dynasty, the Demon Path can barely form a balance with the righteous path.

"I see!" After listening to Jia Hui's explanation, Jia Yucun suddenly realized.

"I don't think it's the devil's way, this group of people is too disciplined.

Besides, just last year, the palm pearl of the Demon Dao giant Ren was deceived and eloped by a disciple of the Huashan faction! ”

"What if you eloped? Is it still worth a battle on the righteous path and the devil's path? Jia Yucun frowned and looked at Tan Ji.

"Don't worry, just at the end of February this year, there is the latest development in this matter!

Miss Ren is pregnant! But the disciples of the Huashan faction didn't know how to be crazy, and suddenly turned their faces and didn't recognize people, and stabbed Miss Ren and the child in her belly with a single sword!

When Miss Ren was discovered, the lower half of her body was full of maggots! In this life, alas... I don't have to be a mother anymore! Tan Ji saw that Jia Hui seemed to be also concerned about the rivers and lakes, and began to talk about some so-called secrets of the rivers and lakes.

"Huh? Tsk tsk... This disciple of the Huashan faction, calling him a scumbag is an insult to the word 'scum'! Jia Hui shook his head.

"Not really! The eldest lady's father, Ren Someone has released a word, and he wants to let the Huashan faction chicken dog not stay! Immediately, he was going to take his own disciples and the people in the Demon Dao who came to help him go to Huashan!

Good guys, most of the people in the Demon Dao said they were going!

Just someone's sect is enough for the Huashan faction, not to mention that there are so many helpers again! The Huashan faction had the heart to ask for help from the righteous people, but this matter was that their own families couldn't get used to it and wanted to kill this fellow disciple. Not to mention the so-called righteous people. ”

"Well, if you wanted me, I would have gone to Huashan a long time ago to chop that crumb of the world into meat sauce, and then what?" Jia Hui pursed his lips.

"Huashan asked for a circle of people, that is, the Wuyue Alliance, a small circle of people formed by the Huashan faction came to help, and the time was set for the ninth day of the first month of March, and Huashan would fight!"

"And then? Who won? Jia Yucun urged.

"And then there was no then. The two gangs were talking cruelly to each other, and as soon as they took out their weapons, they were surrounded by the general soldiers of Shaanxi who had been ambushed by the news in advance, and they were all put in prison!

However, the crumbs of the world were taken care of, and I heard that he was made an adult, and now he is still closed in the embroidered guard yamen in Chang'an! ”

“…… All caught? Jia Yucun asked in disbelief.

"No, hundreds of strong crossbows are facing each other, and I heard that they have pulled cannons over, so if they run a few more... Tsk, then don't live at all! ”

Jia Yucun's rivers and lakes are disillusioned.

"In other words, the loss of the Demon Dao is very big now, and it can't organize people to cover those two people at all, right?" Jia Hui distilled the key points.

"Yes, and even if it can be organized, it will be a rabble, and it is completely impossible to do what that group of people order!"

"Could it be the remnants of the former dynasty?" Jia Yucun guessed.

Jia Hui thought about it and shook his head.

"The possibility is very low, and our dynasty has not imposed party restrictions on them, whether it is the imperial examination or the army.

Not to mention anything else, Yang Zhi is the former general, the descendant of the Yang family. Isn't it in the army of Daqi, mixed under my hands?

Of course, it is not without the rebellion, but the most recent rebellion was 70 years ago. Seventy years later, to the present, there has never been a thief under the banner of anti-Qi Fuliang. ”

Jia Hui once again drank the flower tea in the cup.

"Tsk, don't worry, let's check the identities of these people slowly, those two shopkeepers have their own Tan Ji staring. Now the focus is on a general surnamed Hu in the Jiangnan battalion!

Although the military attache is not as valuable as a civilian official of the same level, the general of the dignified field army is also a senior military attache of the third grade, and he is the son-in-law of the Zhen family.

With the two backers of the Zhen family and Jiangnan Daying, there are still gambling houses that dare to let him lose, and he owes the gambling debts that he has to go to the three clans to pay off, and the most important thing is that he actually admits it! Jia Hui let out a breath of turbidity and shook his head.

"Dadu Governor, embroidered clothes here, I haven't found out that he owes gambling debts!" Tan Ji looked at Jia Hui in surprise.

"Huh?" Jia Hui's eyes also widened and she looked at Tan Ji.

"It seems that this Hu Shen General has been calculated!" Jia Yucun scratched his chin and opened his mouth for the two who were staring.

"Governor Dadu, send someone to investigate!" With that, Tan Ji got up and left.

The big night is the peak time of the gambling house, and it is much more convenient to send someone to mix in now than in the daytime.

There are only two people left in Yingtai Hall, Jia Hui and Jia Yucun.

"General, about Deng Yuan and General Deng..."

"Alas, judging from the files of the Governor's Mansion, he is indeed a good hand in warfare. But the means of this royal servant are too bad, and he was set up by his own soldiers. It's no wonder that the combat power of the Jiangnan battalion is getting worse and worse..."Speaking of Deng Yuan, Jia Hui said with some regret.

"Framed?"

"Well, but I don't know exactly how to set it up, I really can't understand it."

In this regard, Jia Hui's methods are inherited from Rongguofu, which is nothing more than clear rewards and punishments, treating everyone equally, and comparing hearts to hearts.

It may not be the best, but it must be the safest.

But the most important thing is to be able to win the battle with your soldiers!

As long as it can bring them benefits, they will selectively forget about some side things.

So far, Jia Hui has done a good job, and all the troops he has led are very convinced of him.

"Maybe Mr. Deng is too old-fashioned, and the local garrisons will have some businessmen to pay protection money. Occasionally, I also cut down a bandit and eat black.

But Deng Zongzhen is different, it is really a matter of death, "Daqi Law" said that if you don't let you do anything, you won't do anything, and even the bandits will be left to Jinling to stay behind.

When the students were in Yangzhou, they all heard that the soldiers of the Jiangnan battalion were all dead, and they had no extra money at all, and they had a lot of complaints about Deng Zongzhen! ”

Jia Hui rubbed the teacup and didn't say a word.

It's a pity that people like Deng Yuan are not suitable to be the chief official, and they will not only hinder others, but also harm themselves.

"Shi Fei, let's pay homage to Deng Yuan's Mansion tomorrow, and I'll go talk to him."

"Yes, what time?" Jia Yucun promised and took out a blank prayer note from the cabinet in the back hall.

"Tomorrow night or the day after tomorrow at noon, I will have a meal by the way."

Deng Yuan, as the chief military officer, still has to be respected, and he can choose the time.

The first visit is naturally to use a full sticker.

The big red silk is the seal, and the gold thread is embroidered on it to form a winged and flying red bird.

Only Jia Hui can use the Vermilion Bird pattern in the whole Daqi, and those who know the goods will know it at a glance, and those who don't know the goods are not eligible to get this worship post.

Inside, a three-finger-wide bamboo board is glued to the golden millet paper and folded into three sections.

Jia Yucun took out the top-grade pine smoke ink in the cabinet with a painful face, which was specially used to write prayer posts and other documents, representing Jia Hui's face.

After grinding it carefully a few times, it was estimated that it was just enough to finish writing the prayer post.

After thinking about it for a while, he picked up the pen and wrote it in the formal pavilion style.

Jia Hui is only suitable for fast writing, such as writing books. But it was still evaluated by cultural people such as Lin Ruhai and Jia Zhu as too sharp and wanton. It's beautiful to single out, but if you mix it up, it's too sharp for each word to coexist harmoniously.

Although it can be recognized even if it is written slowly, it always gives people a weird feeling.

Therefore, Jia Hui's book is really not suitable for writing such a thing, and it will be troublesome if it makes people think that writing so crazy is provocative.

It can only be ghostwritten by Jia Yucun.

It is worthy of being a master of Jinshi who has read books for 20 years, and he is very experienced in the amount of ink. Just as the last word was written, the last drop of ink on the inkstone was just exhausted.

Gently blowing the ink that had not yet dried, Jia Yucun spread out the worship post and handed it to Jia Hui with both hands.

Jia Hui didn't take it, glanced at it roughly, and nodded.

Well, nothing is a problem.

"Very good, that's it, it's not early, Shi Fei should go and rest!" Jia Hui put down the teacup in his hand and stood up, and Jia Yucun on the side also quickly stood up, leaned over and saluted to see Jia Hui leave the main hall.

"Huh......" Jia Yu Village Chief let out a sigh, although he was already the confidant of the Metropolitan Governor, he could still involuntarily get nervous when he saw the Metropolitan Governor.

After glancing at the worship post, after confirming that the ink had dried, Jia Yucun folded the worship post.

Picked up the greeting post and walked to the front door, Jia Hui picked a courtyard and gave it to him, just on Ningrong Street in the west, it was a small courtyard with one entry. The yard is not big, the deed is really in his hands, and there are not many people in the family, only his wife and a few maids.

handed the greeting note to Jia Hui's personal soldier who was guarding the door, and gave a few words, and the personal soldier nodded, and walked in the direction of Deng Yuan's mansion.

。。。。。。

Jia Hui, who walked to the backyard, is now in trouble.

Whose courtyard will you go to?

Is it to play with the legs, the waist or the feet?

People still have to be single-minded, at least, only one person a day!

After paying yesterday, the three beauties will all belong to themselves.

The duke can have six concubines, but Jia Hui doesn't want them to occupy this place, in case there are any big girls to marry him in the future, he can't let her status be under the three thin horses, right?

After thinking about it, Jia Hui still set their identities as maids in the room.

Nominally, but in fact they are all concubines with independent courtyards and four maids.

According to the way the maids in his room were named, Jia Hui still named them after birds.

The slender beauty jade bone ice muscle, the skin can be broken by blowing, and she has the best skin among the three, named Egret.

Above the navel of the slender foot beauty is a rouge-colored oval birthmark called the crested ibis.

The slender leg beauty has black and shiny hair and a pair of real black eyes, and her name is Xuanhe.

This is already the best name Jia Hui can think of.

Leave it up to God to decide where to spend the night!

Jia Hui raised his hand and put the folding fan in his palm, and the breeze blew, and the folding fan fell to the left.

Grabbing the fan in time, Jia Hui recalled whose yard was on the left.

Oh, it's the crested ibis.

"Send the bath water to Aunt Zhu's yard."

After giving an order to the maid who was standing on the side, Jia Hui walked to the left.

。。。。。。

In fact, all three of them have no surnames.

It's not called no, but when they were three or four years old, they were picked by people in Yangzhou who specialize in training thin horses and bought them back.

Since then, they have never seen their father and mother again, and they have forgotten their last name.

Until they were sold to the Qinglou, they were distinguished by numbers, and they would have a new name after being bought, and they would use it until they were redeemed by the benefactor to get a new name, or they died in an unknown corner with this name.

The girl, who was about 1.6 meters tall, was lying on the chaise longue, reading a travelogue in the Jiafu collection. The two flawless jade feet swayed happily.

The crested ibis's feet have not touched the ground since she was three years old, and because her feet are cute from an early age, the nurturing grandmothers decided to train her to be a skinny horse for certain groups of people.

For example, Jia Hui.

Her world is only the size of a house, although every day there is a husband to teach her all kinds of knowledge, although every day there are delicious but pitiful meals, although the floor is covered with pure velvet carpets bought at a great price from the Western Regions...

Before leaving the room, she didn't even wear a sock, only a brocade band, tightly wrapped around the forepaw of her foot, which she told Mama to keep from widening the ball of her foot.

One day when she was fourteen years old, after eleven years, she saw the blue sky again.

For the first time, the girl had the idea of wanting to travel all over the world.

It was not long before he was lifted into the carriage again, taken to the boat, dismounted again, and entered a small room, still covered with pure velvet carpet. She was bought.

Three months later, she was taken away again and sent to a painting boat, where she was picked by a man and carried home.

He's so tall!

Since yesterday, the crested ibis has become his new name, and he has become his concubine along with two sisters who were also carried back by the man.

There are no more velvet carpets in her room.

She also stepped back on the ground, but the skin on her feet was too tender, and the pure wooden floor also made her feet grind.

But she was happy.

"Auntie, the master is here, and he is bathing and changing!" Outside the door came the voice of his maid.

"Ah, got it!" The crested ibis hurriedly responded.

Then he turned around, and the two little feet touched the ground on their toes, and then slowly, slowly lowered, until the heels also stepped on the ground.

"Hey, hey..."

The crested ibis chuckled, the feeling of being down-to-earth, it's so good.

Stretching out the other foot, he touched the ground with his toes first, and slowly put it down, the whole person swayed, but the crested ibis was not tired of it.

But he quickly walked to the bed.

She had already bathed before, and according to the grandmother who had cultivated herself, she took off all her clothes, wet the towel and carefully wiped her feet, and got into the bed.

Time passed slowly, and just as the crested ibis was fighting, the door rang.

Click, click...

The sound of clogs stepping on the ground gradually approached, and the crested ibis suddenly came to its senses, and the whole person was trembling with nervousness.

Click.

The sound of clogs stopped next to the bed on the right.

"The crested ibis is coming, right?"

The crested ibis sticks its face out of the thin quilt.

"Grandpa......"

"It's not too early, let's rest early..."

Before the crested ibis could reply, she exclaimed, and the thin quilt was lifted by the master, who turned over and faced the crested ibis, lifted her leg, grabbed the crested ibis's right foot, and looked at it carefully.

Stuffed in the mouth...

Thank you for the tipping of hsgsos, thank you very much!
