Ma Jun spoke in a loud voice, saying that Cui Qiao was selling her art but not her body, and asked Huang Dajie not to worry about anything.

Once this was said in public, Huang Dajie had no room for evasion. He was still the one who provided the money to save the city.

Huang Dajie raised his head and said loudly: "Master Ma Shao is right, how can I not welcome Miss Cuiqiao? Miss Cuiqiao generously rescued Taizhou City. For this alone, she can be called a well-known public celebrity. Don't say that.

Miss Cuiqiao lives in the county government temporarily, even if she lives in the county government for a long time, it is natural."

When Cuiqiao heard this, she was overjoyed and said happily: "Thank you for your concern, sir."

Huang Dajie said: "You're welcome from Cuiqiao. As long as you don't mind the small size of the county government wing, you can stay here."

Cuiqiao's face was full of joy, she bowed her head and said thanks: "Thank you, sir."

In this way, Ma Jun took six hundred villagers and moved into Zuihua Brothel.

Cui Qiao arranged for the bustard and others to stay in a private house.

The Madam entered the private house, dusted herself off, and said dissatisfiedly: "Qiao'er, how long will we have to live in the private house? I'm fine, but I'm just afraid that your sisters won't get used to living there."

Cui Qiao said: "Oh, Mom, do you know what time it is now? There is a war and chaos. Once Taizhou City is in chaos, we will be the first to suffer. If we don't live in buildings now, we are saving lives. Don't you understand?"

The madam sighed and said, "You are right, but living here is too bad."

Cui Qiao advised: "Mom, just let the sisters stay quiet. There is a lot of money for them. I am willing to use my own money to save them from the disaster. Can't they endure such a little hardship?"

"Okay." The Madam nodded and wiped her tears.

Cuiqiao's face was full of authority and she said: "If anyone doesn't want to live anymore, just boldly go back to Zuihua Brothel to live there. Anyway, there are many villagers living there."

The Madam was startled and said in a good voice: "Don't worry, Miss, I will listen to you. We can live here with peace of mind."

Cuiqiao took several loads of luggage and moved to the county government wing.

In addition to the main hall and banquet hall, the county government office also has side halls, back halls and wing rooms. The wing rooms are specially reserved for officials who come from far away and are not usually used for long-term residence.

Cuiqiao placed a lyre and guzheng on the table in the wing, and hung a pipa and a shamisen on the wall.

There is a lotus pond in the backyard of the county government office. At that time, the lotus leaves are growing thickly and the water surface is green.

Cuiqiao came to the backyard with her guzheng in her arms, sat by the lotus pond, and played the instrument with ease, calmly and elegantly. Fresh notes came from her

When you pull it out with your fingertips, the coolness travels through time and space, making you feel relaxed and happy.

Let’s talk about the progress on the battlefield at this time. Wang Zhi’s military in Jiangbei was progressing smoothly, and he conquered Nantong Prefecture and Jiangyin County. The next step is Changzhou and Taizhou.

Wang Shun captured Jinshan Guard.

Xin Liulang captured Ningbo County, and the next step was to attack Chongming Island.

Xin Wulang captured Haimenwei and Ninghai County, and then attacked Taizhou City.

Because of Okamoto Nansuke's death, Shingoro was worried about another loss of generals, so he had to suspend the attack on Taizhou City and wait for the arrival of the manhole cover.

What Qi Ying didn't expect was that he assassinated Nansuke Okamoto and unintentionally bought Taizhou City more time to survive.

Xu Weixue's uncle and nephew continued to stay in the Zhoushan Islands and surrounded the points to provide reinforcements. Fortunately, Emperor Jiajing no longer supported them.

In the Ming Dynasty, Zhang Jing was transferred to Zhenjiang by the imperial court. Zhenjiang was an important water transportation town, and Jiajing had to send heavy troops to defend it.

When Zhang Jing left Hangzhou, he said to Mrs. Wa Shi: "Be careful of Wang Zhi's plan to attack the east and attack the west. Wang Zhi's attack on Changzhou may be a foreign attack, in order to absorb the officers and soldiers of Suzhou City and secretly attack Suzhou City."

Mrs. Wa and Zhang Jing thought of something. She also left Hangzhou and went to the outskirts of Suzhou to make secret preparations.

Tang Xuan left Ninghai County and looked for a place to stay in the mountains and forests in Taizhou to survive.

Huang Dajie raised some silver and rushed to make military uniforms and weapons.

Ma Jun settled Zhuang Ding in Zuihua Brothel and began to take Zhuang Ding to the training ground for training.

However, Ma Jun couldn't bear the hardship. After practicing twice, he stopped leading his troops to train and played Pai Gow with the villagers in broad daylight.

Wang Yuejiao rented a private house to live in and liked to walk around when she had nothing to do.

Qi Ying taught the militia's marksmanship to be initially effective, and formation training also began.

The first is the phalanx training. The phalanx is a relatively balanced offensive and defensive formation. Qi Ying stood behind the phalanx waving the golden drum flag.

The militiamen stood in a square formation, with sparse troops in the center and dense troops around them.

If there are fewer troops in the middle, you can bluff. If there are more troops around, you can better defend against enemy attacks.

During the movement of the corps, it must be able to advance and retreat, move left and right, and the team must be able to achieve neat cooperation without chaos.

Qi Ying worked tirelessly to train the militiamen over and over again. The militiamen's formation initially showed scale and actual combat effectiveness.

In sharp contrast to the excitement at the military training ground, the county government office was in full swing.

Quiet. Only Cuiqiao stayed in the backyard, waiting for Huang Dajie to return to the Yamen.

Huang Dajie returned to the office after doing business. He was so tired that he was sweating profusely and sat on a chair to rest.

Just when he was exhausted, a beautiful sound of piano came from the backyard.

The sound of the piano is very beautiful, like the tinkling of streams and springs; like the orchids in the valley with a touch of sadness; and like a hero, full of heroism.

He felt his fatigue disappear immediately, stood up unconsciously, and walked along with the sound of the piano.

He walked to the lotus pond and saw Cuiqiao sitting cross-legged on the bluestone ground, with her hair like a waterfall of green hair, exuding an ambiguous and charming aura. Her silver ice eyes shone with a strange light.

Seeing her fingers plucking back and forth on the strings, the beautiful sound poured out in an instant. It was so soft and moving, like a gurgling clear spring, or like the murmuring of birds in the forest, followed by three sighs.

Suddenly the wind of the music changed and the sound of the piano became sonorous and resolute, like waves hitting rocks and rivers flowing into the sea.

He stood and listened in silence for an unknown period of time. The sound of the piano slowly stopped, but the music seemed to still float on the lotus pond, lingering for a long time. The jade in Kunshan was broken, and the orchid was weeping with dew.

When the song ends, the lingering sound lingers.

Huang Dajie woke up from his intoxication. Although he knew some music, he had never heard such a beautiful piece of music in the world.

He clapped his hands and praised, "Miss, you are indeed a famous lady from the south of the Yangtze River. This music is really wonderful."

Cuiqiao stood up, half-bowed her waist, and said, "Sir, you are here. Are you asking me to take a rest?"

Huang Dajie waved his hand hurriedly and said: "No, no, this song is very nice and it relieves my fatigue."

Cuiqiao smiled and said: "If you like to listen, I will dare to play it in the future, otherwise I will be afraid of disturbing you."

Huang Dajie waved his hand again and said: "No noisy, no noisy, just play from now on, haha."

Cuiqiao said happily: "Thank you, sir."

Cuiqiao can keenly sense Huang Dajie's mood. When she senses that Huang Dajie is worried, she will not play a tune. When she senses that Huang Dajie is at ease, she will play a good song. The tune can suit Huang Dajie's mood very well.

Huang Dajie's mood ranges from high to low, sometimes happy, sometimes sad, sometimes irritable, sometimes lonely.

Cuiqiao captures Huang Dajie's mood very accurately, playing cheerful tunes when he is happy, tragic tunes when he is sad, comforting tunes when he is irritable, and elegant tunes when he is lonely
