Outside Jiangbei Camp, carriages were parked outside, and there were dozens of them densely packed.
These carriages belong to the great gentry around Yangzhou.
Sun Youcheng's hair and beard are all white. He is already over sixty years old. Although he is old, he does not need help. He walks neither hastily nor slowly, very steadily. He walks towards his carriage without arrogance or impatience, at the entrance of the camp. , the fat old man sitting on the right side of Li Zhen strode out after him, stretched out his hand and shouted: "Old Sun, wait a minute."
Sun Youcheng stopped immediately, turned around and looked at the running old man with a smile.
"Brother Kuang Xian, do you have anything to do with me?"
Kuang Xiandi, whom Sun Youcheng refers to, is a fat old man. This man's name is Kuang Jiacheng, and he is also one of the leaders of this group of gentry. His qualifications are slightly lower than that of Sun Youcheng, so he sits first on the right of Li Zhen, not on the left. Kuang Jiacheng He strode up and asked with a serious look: "Old Sun, what do you think about today's meeting with the Imperial Envoy?"
Upon hearing this, the surrounding gentry immediately gathered around and looked at Sun Youcheng with all their eyes.
These people are also extremely concerned.
Sun Youcheng smiled and said: "We just need to give you money and food. What else do you need to do?"
Kuang Jiacheng sneered and said with a smile: "Old Sun, don't fight with me. You are a thief and a thief. You must have your own ideas. We, the Yangzhou gentry, will both prosper and suffer. You are our anchor to the sea and cannot remain silent." Leave."
The gentry echoed one after another and agreed with Kuang Jiacheng's opinion.
Sun Youcheng glanced at the people standing beside him, remained silent for a moment, and continued: "When I met with Li Zhen today, I got the feeling that this man is a man with iron-blooded skills. Those who obey will prosper and those who rebel will perish. If anyone disobeys Li Zhen, Zhen, will definitely be destroyed. His 8,000 soldiers fought against 40,000 Taiping troops, and only more than 400 people died. It can be predicted how powerful he is."
"In the past, Li Zhen was in charge of Shanghai, which is not far from Yangzhou. Everyone knows more or less about Li Zhen. Moreover, Li Zhen also stayed in Yangzhou for a period of time. Everyone understands Li Zhen's style of doing things. Therefore, my suggestion If he wants money, we will give him money; if he wants food, we will give him food. As for our family's private soldiers, others will look down upon him."
"Mr. Sun, I agree with your suggestion. However, Li Zhen asked us to join forces to curb the food import into Nanjing. What do you think, and what is Li Zhen's purpose?" A middle-aged man asked expectantly.
Sun Youcheng chuckled twice and said: "Li Zhen made it very clear that the supply of food cannot be cut off. From this, we can conclude that Li Zhen will not attack Nanjing for the time being. We can just agree without too much consideration."
After everyone listened, they nodded repeatedly
Sun Youcheng said: "I would like to warn you, as long as you don't anger Li Zhen, everything will be easy to talk about."
After finishing speaking, Sun Youcheng and Kuang Jiacheng nodded and got into the carriage.
Kuang Jiacheng also turned around and left, returning to his carriage.
…
In the military camp, in a separate tent.
Hong Xuanjiao sat alone inside, her face was pale, her hair was messy, her face was dirty, and she no longer had the graceful and elegant posture of the past. Hong Xuanjiao felt that all the bones in her body were falling apart, not only the bones ached, but also Even the internal organs have been shocked to varying degrees. As long as you breathe hard, you will feel pain in the chest.
All of this was caused by her fight with Long Ao, and she still has lingering fears.
This man is so terrible.
Hong Xuanjiao's heart was filled with hatred when she thought of beating her to a serious injury. However, her mind changed and she quickly thought of how to deal with Li Zhen.
Someone came to recruit An before, but she refused forcefully.
However, what should we do if Li Zhen comes in person?
By then, it will definitely be a different situation.
Hong Xuanjiao was thinking about how to face Li Zhen, and even what questions Li Zhen would ask to threaten her. She was thinking about whether Li Zhen would throw her into the male soldiers, or take her to the camp alone. Hong Xuanjiao considered Everything is from the perspective of her being a daughter, thinking that she is likely to be raped by Li Zhen.
Hong Xuanjiao secretly vowed that if she was raped, she would commit suicide.
I would rather die than be humiliated.
When Hong Xuanjiao made up her mind, she thought of her big brother Hong Xiuquan and Yang Xiuqing, who had an unclear relationship with her. She hoped that they could save her, but she could only think about it because they had not received news yet. .
"Tap, step,,."
Suddenly, Hong Xuanjiao heard footsteps coming from outside.
"Thump, thump."
Hong Xuanjiao's heartbeat suddenly accelerated, as if it was about to jump out. She looked up at the door of the camp, uneasy, thinking that Li Zhen must be here. What would happen next? She even encouraged herself secretly and warned her You must be tough and not show your cowardice.
"brush."
The tent curtain was lifted, and dazzling sunlight shone in.
Hong Xuanjiao put her hand in front of her eyes, but couldn't help but close her eyes. She was not used to the dazzling light. After a moment, Hong Xuanjiao opened her eyes and found that Li Zhen had walked in. Following Li Zhen was Ye Cheng. Zhong, Long Ao, and the other generals have returned to their respective positions to deal with military affairs.
Li Zhen walked into the camp. His clothes had not been changed yet, and they were still stained with blood. Ye Chengzhong quickly moved a chair for Li Zhen, and Li Zhen sat down with a golden sword.
Hong Xuanjiao was the first to speak: "Li Zhen is a thief, I will not surrender. I would rather die than surrender." When she spoke, her eyes were as fierce as a tigress's.
Li Zhen paused and laughed, laughing freely.
Hong Xuanjiao shouted: "Thief, what's so funny."
Li Zhen dusted off his blood-stained clothes and said with a smile: "I think it's funny because you have no confidence in what you said. It seems that you are still a woman after all."
The most taboo thing about Hong Xuanjiao is that she is a daughter. Especially now that she is in Li Zhen's military camp, she feels that she is in a wolf's den and may be stripped naked at any time. The most important thing is that Hong Xuanjiao is quite confident in her appearance and thinks that men will see her. She would have certain thoughts, and now that she is captured by Li Zhen, it is even more dangerous.
When Li Zhen mentioned her daughter's identity, all the hairs on Hong Xuanjiao's body stood up. Her eyes widened and her phoenix eyes showed fiercely, and she shouted: "Bitch thief, what do you want to do?"
Li Zhen said with a smile: "Whatever you are thinking in your heart, that's what I will do." As he spoke, Li Zhen's eyes rolled around and he looked at Hong Xuanjiao unscrupulously, carefully. Looking carefully, Li Zhen took a closer look and found that this woman's figure was indeed good, with all the bulges and bulges she should have, and she was full of charm.
Li Zhen's actions made Hong Xuanjiao even more afraid. Hong Xuanjiao was frightened and suddenly stood up excitedly. Regardless of her own pain, she yelled: "Bitch thief, I will fight with you."
She pounced on Li Zhen, trying to fight for her life.
Li Zhen leaned back on the chair and sat still. However, Long Ao, who was standing next to Li Zhen, took a step forward and kicked out. A muffled sound was heard. Long Ao kicked Hong Xuanjiao. On the lower abdomen, he kicked Hong Xuanjiao to the ground. Although Hong Xuanjiao was pretty, Long Ao didn't have any sympathy for her and acted domineeringly.
ps: First update; I had a long sleep, so comfortable, long live the weekend.
