Everyone says Jiangnan is good, and tourists only like Jiangnan.
On the eighth day of the first lunar month, it is appropriate to open a business to collect money and seek wealth.
The Yangtze River, this river that traverses most of the south of the Yangtze River, at a ferry, there was a young man looking at the slightly red river water with a sad expression.
"Everything in the palace has been turned into dirt!!"
"With such a master in the world, I'm afraid it will be difficult for me to achieve great things in this life!!"
After hearing the young man's words, another young man standing next to him clenched his fists tightly.
After a long silence, another young man spoke up and said, "Guan Shan, what do you think of my previous proposal?"
When the young man heard this, his eyes narrowed, "Zhen Tu, can you guarantee that what you said is true? If something goes wrong!! We may not be so lucky to escape from that person again this time!" !」
One of these two people is the leader of the White Lotus Sect, and the other is an outstanding descendant of the family sent out by Zhen Shihai.
The two of them had narrowly escaped death in the battle on the Jinling River a few days ago, and came here after many twists and turns.
Thinking of the battle half a month ago, they still had lingering fears. After Jia Qi left, they thought about revenge, but this goal was not easy to achieve.
Firstly, Jia Qi's strength was too terrifying, and secondly, they lacked soldiers and horses and the necessary means to deal with Jia Qi.
Zhen Tu thought about using some things he knew before to open up channels first.
So Zhen Tu once again focused on the salt transportation in Jiangnan.
The Zhen family had made their fortune by transporting salt in Jiangnan for so many years. With the help of some information he knew, he felt quite familiar with doing this kind of thing.
As for Guan Shan, he also wanted to use Zhen Tu's arrangements to help the White Lotus Sect recover. In the Battle of Jinling, most of the White Lotus Sect's elite were lost. If he hadn't arranged for some people to evacuate in advance, I'm afraid all the White Lotus Sect's members would have to be accounted for. .
However, they were not sure whether Jia Qi would turn around and deal with them again, and both of them were hesitant. If Jia Qi came to specifically surround the two of them again, they might not even have any hope of survival, so these two were This half month has been silent.
"How's it going in the capital?"
Guan Shan looked at the river and thought of something, and asked in a deep voice.
Zhen Tu chuckled, his eyes full of coldness.
"The emperor will naturally not let him go if he privately sends troops to Jiangnan. But now that he has great military exploits and a great reputation, it is difficult for the emperor to deal with him! But I am sure that Jia Qi will definitely send troops to Jiangnan this time. A knot formed in the Emperor’s heart!!”
"I heard that the cabinet ministers also drafted an edict to control the Great Snow Dragon Cavalry in his hands!!"
Hearing this, Guan Shan smiled coldly in his heart.
Zhen Tu had never seen the scene at that time, and what he cared about was not the army. Of course, the cavalry was also very terrifying, but what was even more terrifying was Jia Qi himself.
On the bank of the Jinling River, that guy's last sword seemed to be engraved in his mind. To be honest, he was different from Zhen Tu. He never regarded Jia Chun as an enemy in his heart. With such a person, he could not be said to be a human being. He is not that stupid.
A sword across the river cut off the flow of the river. At that time, the sword was hiding in a pavilion not far away. He was frightened. He had practiced internal power and knew that internal power could leave the body and hurt people, but he had never heard of one. A person's sword can be so terrifying.
Cutting off the river with one sword does not mean crossing the river with a reed, the ancestor of Bodhidharma. The difference is not just a tiny bit, it can be said to be a world of difference.
"Is it possible for the champion to go to Jiangnan again??"
After a moment of silence, Guan Shan asked the core and most critical question.
When Zhen Tu heard this, he was slightly startled. In his impression, shouldn't Jia Qi's most terrifying method be the iron cavalry in his hand? ? Now it is also restricted by the Mingkang Emperor's coalition cabinet. A simple person's role against hundreds or even thousands of people is just a drop in the bucket. Why does he feel that Guan Shan seems to be so afraid of Jia Chu himself? ? Could it be that he was beaten stupid?
However, there are not many remaining forces of the Zhen family at this time. Compared with the previous cooperation with the White Lotus Sect, the positions of the Zhen family and the White Lotus sect have been completely adjusted. The Zhen family is the weaker party.
So Zhen Tu looked down on him in his heart, but he didn't show it on the surface. He combined the news he heard from the capital and began to think about the situation Guan Shan said.
Jia Qi recently visited Jiangnan, and I heard that there was a lot of commotion in Suzhou, and it seemed that a cult was wiped out.
The court seems to be unsettled recently. There seems to be a conflict among the old officials of the Supreme Emperor's line. Fan Yuanhe, Zeng Shutang, the Duke of Zhenguo, and the Duke of Liguo. The two forces are facing each other, which affects the entire military defense around the capital.
Because most of the soldiers in Jizhou Town and Xuanfu Town were under the command of two princes, if there was any movement between these two people, the capital would be in chaos. Moreover, he also secretly heard that Emperor Ming Kang sent him to serve in the army. His confidant, Wang Ziteng, went to Datong and Shanxi to mobilize troops. The guarding generals in those two places were newly sent by Emperor Kangxi of the Ming Dynasty and were considered his own.
Before the handover of the troops in the camp on the outskirts of the capital was completed, he was sure that it would be impossible for Jia Qi to leave the capital during this period, because Emperor Mingkang would not allow it.
"It shouldn't be allowed in the short term. When he leaves Beijing, we can just take the money and run away!! Recently, the New Year's Eve has been newly opened. The canal over there should follow the practice of previous years and transport two batches of official salt here. , then we can sink one or two ships without anyone noticing, and you won’t be able to tell at all! During this period, after the canal breaks through the ice, the waterway is still risky, and shipwrecks occur every year!”
Then Zhen Tu spoke slowly, and also expressed his guess.
Hearing this, Guan Shan looked greatly moved. As long as Jia Qi didn't come, their problem should not be big.
However, he did not agree immediately. The Zhen family lost its troops and only had three or two big cats and kittens left. There were not many people left in the White Lotus Sect. If they wanted to carry out this matter, they still needed careful planning.
"Brother Zhen, do you have a detailed plan?? I don't need to say more about your situation. Our situation is not much better. If there is no detailed plan, I will not sacrifice the brothers in the sect in vain!!"
When Zhen Tu heard this, his eyes flickered twice, and then he said in a deep voice: "Master Guan, Mr. Li who is in charge of water transportation is a member of our Zhen family!!"
Hearing Zhen Tu's words, Guan Shan chuckled.
"Brother Zhen, today is different from the past. In the past, your Zhen family was the only one in Jiangnan. But now that the wall has fallen and everyone is pushing against it, are you sure that Mr. Li can be relied upon?"
Zhen Tu narrowed his eyes, and then sneered: "He doesn't dare!!"
Guan Shan couldn't help but be a little curious when he heard something in the other party's words. However, seeing that the other party had no intention of continuing, he didn't ask anymore. Now both families would benefit from a partnership. He didn't want to ruin this rare friendship. After all, after what happened Son, in Dakang, it can be said that he has almost no allies in the White Lotus Sect.
"Since Brother Zhen has everything ready and all he needs is the east wind, then I would rather be respectful than obey your orders!!"
"Then Zhen also wishes Master Guan a comeback, and all his wishes will come true!!"
"Haha! Easy to say! Easy to say!"
A gust of river wind blew, and Guan Shan and Zhen Tu subconsciously tightened their collars. In this season, even in a good place like Jiangnan, it is very cold.
The two then went back together. On the way, Guan Shan asked with great interest: "Brother Zhen, in this weather, are there still water ghosts who can go into the water? Don't make a joke~"
...
The capital, the palace of the champion prince.
As soon as Jia Qi returned home, Xiang Ling and Cai Luan came to greet him. Also accompanying him was a little girl who he got at the foot of Yanshan Mountain. If she hadn't taken the initiative to take a picture of her, he would probably have forgotten this person. Bar!
Jia Qi looked at her strangely. Cai Luan took Jia Qi's cloak. Xiang Ling went to make tea and called Qing Wen, who was lazy in the room, to bring over the heater.
Looking at the little girl in front of him, Jia Qi took a sip of water and then asked: "Is something wrong??"
The little girl is none other than the previous Saint of the White Lotus Sect, Guan Ziyue.
Guan Ziyue stood in front of Jia Qi, she hesitated to speak. She raised her head to look at Jia Qi, and then lowered her head. Her face was still a little red, and she hesitated for a long time without saying anything.
On the side, Caiwan hung up Jia Qi's cloak. When she returned to Jia Qi, she happened to see this scene and couldn't help but said with a smile: "Master Qi, this little girl said she has a wonderful skill and can help people practice. , such a good help, you don’t need it? Is it possible that you want to take advantage of others?”
After hearing Cai Luan's words, Jia Qi raised his head and looked at Guan Ziyue. Now that he has entered the realm of celestial phenomena, he is not so eager to improve his realm. The further realms of land gods and gods are not inner breath. The accumulated problems are the realization of the realm and the polishing of sword intention, which are no longer something that can be solved by dual cultivation.
The little girl in front of him was really pretty. She changed out of her rag-like clothes and dressed up a little, and she was as good as Qingwen. After thinking about it, Jia Qi asked aloud: "Are you willing? Or are you willing?" Cai Luan forced you??"
Guan Ziyue was still very nervous. When she heard Jia Qi's question, her hands hanging by her sides clenched involuntarily.
His voice trembled as he said, "I want to ask Mr. Hou to help me kill someone~~"
Hearing this, Cai Luan couldn't help but shook her head. How many times had she told this little girl, but she still couldn't figure it out! After making such a naked request, she would see how she would face Jia Qi in the future. She knew very well that although the man in front of her was soft and hard most of the time, there were also times when he was soft and not hard!
As long as she becomes his woman, just like Xiang Ling, Jia Qi will help her solve her problems even if she doesn't have to talk to her.
Jia Qi laughed when he heard this.
This is the fourth time he has officially met this girl Guan. The first two times she was dressed as a waiter, even he was fooled. The third time was when he first entered the house, and the fourth time is now.
"A real person! But do you think I will help you? I might as well tell you that you are not the only one in this mansion who knows this kind of technique. The girl Miaoyu in the backyard can!"
Hearing Jia Qi's words, Guan Ziyue was stunned, opened her mouth and subconsciously replied: This is impossible, this is the secret method of the holy religion! ! "
