"no."

Feng Yibo shook his head.

"Just take good care of her. Don't ask any more questions. She will be sent back home as soon as the city gate opens tomorrow."

Although there was no explanation, Aunt Meng understood most of it and was a little disappointed.

"I originally thought that Miss Xue is like a fairy and would be great as the mistress of our family, but it's a pity."

Feng Yibo naturally understood Aunt Meng's concern for him, and his heart moved.

But in the end, he shook his head: "She is the eldest daughter of the Xue family in Jinling. Our family's family status is beyond our reach."

Aunt Meng's eyes lit up, but she could hear a hint of unwillingness.

Then he tried again: "Then when my brother wins the Jinshi..."

As one of the four major families, although the Xue family is ranked last, it is too deeply involved with established nobles such as the Wang family and the Jia family.

Although the original work doesn't explicitly mention it, there are several prophecies like "The vast white land is so clean."

Even if it is not a serious crime, Jia Lan will not be able to pass the political review if he eventually wants to become an official.

But Feng Yibo still doesn't understand the specific situation, so naturally he can't make a conclusion easily.

What's more, he didn't think that if he shook his body, the other party would marry him.

Of course, he didn't have to explain to his wife.

He said directly: "I don't want to have anything to do with such a family."

Although she didn't understand the true meaning, Aunt Meng could hear Feng Yibo's alienation.

She had some idea in her mind and just hesitated: "What about me?"

"Hospitality with all your heart, don't be rude."

Aunt Meng nodded after getting the answer.

"Okay Brother Yuan, I understand."

…………

The name Jinling comes from the Jinling city built by King Xiong Shang of Chu Wei in Stone City.

This has been the center of Jiangnan since ancient times.

It not only has the heritage of the Six Dynasties and the connection between Wu and Chu, but also the prosperity of the Qinhuai River and the rich life.

Moreover, it is also the land of Longxing in this dynasty.

Emperor Taizu raised his troops here and defeated the main force of the Tartars in one fell swoop after crossing the river.

Then he worked hard to dominate the world and became a great hero.

As the core of Jiangnan and the rear area, Jinling naturally became the capital in the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China.

Later, the world was settled, especially the Northland was completely included.

In order to stabilize the situation, a new capital was built in the north, and most of the nobles also moved there.

Although Jinling became the capital, it still has an irreplaceable position in politics, economy, culture and education.

Even Emperor Taizu, who originally moved the capital, began to miss the past as he grew older.

This led to the grand occasion of six southern tours.

Of course, these allusions are well known to everyone in Jinling and there is no need to mention them again.

Simply put, Jinling City, as an important town in the south of the Yangtze River, is naturally high in the city and deep in the pond.

In the minds of most people, even if there are millions of soldiers, they may not be able to win easily.

However, there was a group of more than a hundred Japanese pirates who wanted to come here.

As the supreme leader of this group of Japanese pirates, Daqiao Wulang was thinking about his next plan.

This Zhuangzi was killed and plundered. At least for a short period of time, he didn't have to worry about leaking information or having to eat.

However, the detailed work he sent has not returned yet, making him worry about whether the next plan will go smoothly.

The encirclement and suppression by officers and soldiers was secondary.

Even if tens of thousands of officers and soldiers come, Da Qiao Wulang feels that it is not impossible for them to break through.

If it were less, it could even defeat the opponent.

Except for the heavy losses caused by the navy at the beginning, they did not encounter any decent resistance after logging in.

But after all, in a big city like Jinling City, if there is no internal response, it would be difficult for more than a hundred of them to do anything.

It is also easy for the navy to catch a turtle in the urn.

It turns out that this group of Japanese pirates was dispersed by the imperial navy and encountered a strong wind and landed in Yu County.

Originally they thought they were unlucky because they encountered officers and soldiers as soon as they landed.

Daqiao Wulang felt that their entire army was about to be annihilated, so he led his men to face them head-on with the determination to die.

But with just one charge, more than a thousand officers and soldiers on the opposite side fled in all directions.

The vulnerability of the officers and soldiers made these Japanese pirates who had survived the disaster a little unbelievable.

Then they raided Kuaiji with the attitude of giving it a try.

The officers and soldiers guarding the city.

Ran.

They succeeded in plundering, but they did not dare to stay any longer.

They also robbed the vicinity of Hangzhou, followed by several counties in Huizhou, and reached Jixi and Jingde.

Tu passed through Jingxian County, headed towards Nanling, arrived at Wuhu, and plundered Taiping Mansion.

Successful plunders again and again, and confrontations with officers and soldiers again and again, made them full of confidence.

There is no way, except for the Taihu Navy that defeated them at the beginning, no one of the officers and soldiers they encountered after that could fight!

It was this kind of encounter that made Da Qiao Wulang want to make a big profit, and then find a way to go to the beach to look for opportunities to seize the ship.

So, they thought of the center of Jiangnan.

The richest Jinling!

the other side.

It was said that there were only a hundred people, so the Nanjing Camp did not take it seriously after receiving the order to go out.

There was even a fight.

In peacetime, there were not many opportunities for such meritorious deeds.

Finally, the commander Mu Kun assigned his confidant Qianhu Liu Zhao.

He was sent not just because he was a confidant.

It was also because out of the five thousand households under his command, only Liu Zhao had barely enough troops, and he could train three to five times in a month.

In Mu Kun's opinion, this is the absolute elite in the entire Jiangnan.

Liu Zhao originally thought so, until the moment he faced the Japanese pirates.

He understood that the only difference between the troops he led and the rabble was that they were well equipped.

Why lose?

Liu Zhao was unwilling.

There are obviously a lot of people here!

But after only one meeting, a row of people from the front line fell.

There are only a few dozen at most.

The whole team began to collapse.

Then, even more inexplicably, a thousand men and horses were chased and killed by more than a hundred bandits.

Can you believe it?

Liu Zhao rode his horse and ran towards Jinling with all his strength, the fear in his heart could not be dissipated for a long time.

But what to do?

He fled back in such a hurry, fearing that he would lose his official position.

Even lose your head!

Just before the whole army was defeated, he had tried his best to organize the army.

But there were only a hundred or so people gathered around him, and they were instantly dispersed by the defeated subordinates.

The team can be reunited if the team is separated, but the team is gone even if the hearts of the people are dispersed!

Liu Zhao, who fled in panic, had no idea for a moment.

I didn't even notice for a moment that the sitting horse was extremely tired.

He is covered in armor, and combined with his own fat, he weighs almost 200 kilograms.

Although the seated war horse looked at the divine horse, it looked like a fake.

At this time, one person and one horse had been walking and running for several hours.

Especially the escape part.

After running for more than ten miles, his flattery was almost broken by him.

Now Liu Zhao was thinking about how to deal with it, and his hands stopped.

The horse's speed gradually slowed down.

It was fine at first when it was tight, but now that it was relaxed, the war horse actually lost some of its strength.

His front legs went weak and Liu Zhao was thrown out.

"There's a roar!"

The armor stung him to death.

"Eh~~~!"

The war horse found that it was much easier, struggled to get up, and then raised its hooves and sent a puff of smoke along the official road.

Disappear.

Liu Zhao was dumbfounded now!

You can save your life if you go back to Jinling, but if the Japanese pirates catch up, your head will be at risk.

what to do?

He tried to move and found that his leg was still broken.

No more running away now!

"I just said I saw someone fall off a horse here! It's right here!"

Just when Liu Zhao was thinking that it would be dark and the Japanese pirates would not chase him, two men came to him.

"He's a soldier!"

"Not dead?"

What's going on with this disappointed tone?

Liu Zhao had a cold war.
