"this……"
"I really haven't thought about it carefully."
"Could it be that this brothel has any secrets?"
Yang Ming was a little surprised.
"Peach Blossom Pavilion, have you heard of it?"
Ban Gu asked Yang Ming.
"Peach Blossom Pavilion?"
"I heard it's an organization of a group of women?"
"You run a brothel?"
Yang Ming asked curiously.
"Open a brothel? Maybe it's just one of them. Although I don't know what this Peach Blossom Pavilion does, judging from their current actions, it seems that they have very close contacts with Hezhou."
"I heard that Zhang Bao also has a second wife. I'm afraid the things inside are not that simple."
Ban Gu shook his head and said.
Hezhou is like another independent place.
After all their spies were sent in, they were either killed or disappeared. Those who were able to come back brought only insignificant news.
They currently have no understanding of the situation in Hezhou.
We can only get a glimpse of it from the people coming in and out of Hezhou.
"I see."
"Father, what should we do now?"
"My father has been ill for a long time. I'm afraid Cao Kang will take action against us next!"
Yang Ming asked Ban Gu.
"It doesn't matter!"
"Cao Kang can't stand it anymore and will come to me personally!"
"Now is not the time to completely abandon us. He, Cao Kang, also knows that I am dissatisfied with the current situation, but after he comes here, maybe we can do something."
Ban Gu said slowly.
…
Yunzhong County.
"Uncle He!"
"Stop it!"
"If you don't stop, I will attack you!"
Zhang Bao turned around and said to Lao He while running.
Lao He behind him was holding a few silver needles and was about to do something to Zhang Bao.
Some time ago.
All the tricks that Lao He could use were used by Zhang Bao.
He even went to Luo Mu and asked for a lot of medicine, such as Five Stone Powder and Huilong Decoction, and put them into Zhang Bao's food or wine when Zhang Bao wasn't paying attention.
It makes Zhang Bao very hard to guard against.
The worst time was when Lao He sealed the door of Zhang Bao's house with wooden boards.
A lot of charcoal was burned in the house and a jar of highly concentrated wine was placed.
I just thought about Zhang Bao drinking and doing errands after the heat in the house, and almost sent Zhang Bao away.
This is not the most important thing.
Although Zhang Bao drank the wine, the problem was that Lao He remembered the wrong time. Ma Yan'er was not at Zhang Bao's place tonight.
Zhang Bao was the only one in the room, and he drank a jar full of highly concentrated wine. After drinking, there was still a lot of medicinal powder that had not completely melted in the jar.
When Zhang Bao saw these residues, he knew that he was in tragedy.
In order to prevent Zhang Bao from coming out halfway, Lao He even sealed the door and windows tightly.
Zhang Bao almost cried in the room.
In the end, Lao He was preparing to supervise under the wall. After listening for a long time, he didn't hear the sound that he should have heard from inside. He couldn't bear it anymore, so he opened the door and went in.
I found Zhang Bao weakly patting the door.
What Cao Kang failed to accomplish despite all his efforts and even dispatching 200,000 troops was almost accomplished easily by Lao He.
After that, Zhang Bao became scared.
Zhang Bao would never touch anything that got past Lao He's hands.
I was really scared.
It’s been hard for me recently not to focus on eating and drinking.
But Lao He didn't know where he found a folk remedy, saying that it could be cured by pricking certain acupuncture points with silver needles.
How could Zhang Bao agree?
Besides, now he is no longer the stupid young master who was ignorant and allowed himself to be manipulated by Lao He. Now he can be regarded as a state pastor, but Lao He doesn't take Zhang Bao seriously at all.
Zhang Baoya was itching with hatred, but there was nothing he could do.
"Stop it, me!"
"Just prick it!"
"I spent more than a hundred taels of silver to buy this folk remedy!"
"Don't worry, I've tried it on myself in advance, and it's very effective!"
Lao He was chasing after him.
"You can pull him down!"
"You bad old man didn't tell the truth. Last time you said you had worked so hard to pick those grasses from the cliff, and you almost drugged me to death!"
"I believed you, you idiot!"
Zhang Bao said while running quickly in the yard.
Fortunately, the current Zhang Family Courtyard is quite large, and Lao He will not be able to catch up for a while.
"Sir, a message has arrived from Dongzhou."
"Sir, what are you doing..."
Xie Yunsong ran in with a letter in his hand and saw Zhang Bao jumping up and down being chased by Lao He.
In the whole of Hezhou, and even in the whole world, except for Lao He, no one else could pursue Zhang Baodang, a state pastor, like this.
"what's the situation?"
"Uncle He, we have business!"
"Lao Xie, stop him!"
Zhang Bao shouted to Xie Yunsong.
Seeing this, Xie Yunsong quickly picked up Lao He in a bear hug from behind, and the needle in Lao He's hand pierced Xie Yunsong's neck.
Xie Yunsong immediately fell to the ground and started twitching, foaming at the mouth.
Lao He was dumbfounded and didn't care about chasing Zhang Bao. He quickly came to Xie Yunsong and looked at him.
Zhang Bao finally took a breath.
He picked up the letter Xie Yunsong dropped on the ground and looked at it. It was sent by someone from Fang Fu.
The entire Japanese population in Dongzhou has been completely eliminated.
All the merchants that cooperated with the Japanese were taken over by Zheng Shiqi.
Now Fang Fu and the others are ready to attack the remaining generals. They have almost divided them up. I believe that it will not take long before Dongzhou can be successfully captured.
According to Fang Fu's opinion, the current county magistrates in Dongzhou can be retained.
After all, they have been here for a long time and are far more familiar with the situation in Dongzhou than they are. If they are removed rashly, there will be no reserve county magistrate to take over. Secondly, it may also cause some problems. Mutiny.
It has to be said that Fang Fu's considerations are naturally no problem.
And since Zhang Bao leaves matters in Dongzhou to Fang Fu, Fang Fu's actual judgment in Dongzhou is naturally more reliable than Zhang Bao who is far away in Hezhou.
"Lao Xie, tell Fang Fu and let him boldly act according to his own ideas. Dongzhou has decided to let him take up the post of Dongzhou Prefect immediately."
"When Dongzhou stabilizes, I will go to Dongzhou myself."
Zhang Bao looked at the letter and said to Xie Yunsong.
"Lao Xie."
"Lao Xie?"
"Fuck!"
"Thank you!!"
