Chaos in the Eastern Jin Dynasty

Chapter 57
Five days later, we arrived in Jiankang.

The young man in white stood on the bow of the boat, with his hands behind his back, overlooking the capital of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, a famous city through the ages.

Zhuge Liang once said that this place is: "The topography of Moling, the Zhongshan dragon, the stone and the tiger, this is the emperor's house."

Looking at the terrain, Guan Ziyang is definitely not as good as Zhuge Liang, but for foreseeing the future, Guan Ziyang is definitely better than Zhuge Liang.

This Jiankang is Nanjing, the ancient capital of the Six Dynasties in history.

The port wharf alone is more than twice the size of Jiangling. There are hundreds of large and small boats on the wharf, and there is an endless stream of businessmen, tourists, and porters.

There are dozens of markets built with tarpaulins by the pier, and a row of hawkers sell along the pier, selling melons, vegetables, cloth, iron products, and wood products.

Along the streets of Linjiang, there are wine shops, inns, gambling houses, and brothels. The bustling level is several times more lively than the Jiangling that surprised them a few days ago!
Guan Ziyang and others got off the boat and asked the boatman to wait at the pier for a few days. After Guan Zhengde hired all kinds of craftsmen needed to develop the manor, he returned with the boat.

"Watermelon, watermelon, the best watermelon~"

When Guan Ziyang heard that there was a watermelon, he immediately looked for the sound and left.

While wolfing down the watermelon, Qing Chan ran over in a panic, pulled Guan Ziyang and said, "Little Lang, go and save Miss Shi Qi!"

Guan Ziyang blushed from eating, and asked, "Why save her? We will part ways after we get off the boat. We have already agreed that whatever happens to her has nothing to do with us."

At this moment, Wei Yiqing also ran across the hallway and said, "Junior brother, what are you doing? Miss Shi is surrounded by people, help her quickly."

Although Wei Yiqing was wearing a veil, he could still feel her anxious expression.

Guan Ziyang said helplessly: "Hey, what are you two doing with a Jie people who call you sisters and sisters? You are not looking for trouble. She will cause a lot of trouble in the future."

While talking, he went to Shi Qi, and said: "Only this time, we will disband after helping."

Shi Qi was surrounded by a group of porters on the pier, they didn't do anything, they just yelled not to let her go ashore and enter the city.

"Get out of Jiankang, Jiegou!"

"We in Jiankang do not welcome barbarians!"

"If you don't leave, we will get rough!"

One of them suddenly went 'bah' and spit on Shi Qi.

Shi Qi was taken aback, clenched his fists and was ready to strike!
"Yo yo yo, Jie Gou still wants to hit someone, you hit one and I'll see, our brother is too embarrassed to hit a woman!" One of the porters yelled, and then spit at her again with a 'pooh' sound saliva.

Shi Qi lowered his clenched fist.

"My father has already descended to the Eastern Jin Dynasty and became Marquis of Ruyin. I can't beat these Han people!"

Shi Qi's martial arts are not low, and his internal strength should be in the lower level of the sixth rank. These people should not be her opponents. Guan Ziyang was also surprised when he learned to endure at a young age.

It wasn't until he got close that he discovered the reason why Shi Qi didn't do anything.

It turns out that these movers all have a special mark, a scar!

The man who spat at him had his palm broken at the level of the bowl, and only his right hand remained intact, holding a heavy-looking sack of sackcloth.

One lost his right calf and was on crutches, but he was still carrying loads.

There is a deep scar running through the entire face from the right ear to the mouth, half of the ears and lips are missing, it is hard to imagine how he survived in the first place.

There was a shirtless man with more than a dozen cuts all over his body...

These movers are all wounded soldiers who retired from the battlefield of the Eastern Jin Dynasty!
Back then when the Eastern Jin Dynasty fought with Hou Zhao Liannian, these injuries should be caused by the Jie people... The hatred for the Jie people is as deep as the sea in the hearts of these porters!

Guan Ziyang squeezed into the crowd, throwing away the watermelon rind in his hand.

"Big brothers, don't get me wrong, don't get me wrong, this Jie man is my slave!"

When the porters heard this, they stopped shouting immediately.

Guan Ziyang said: "I'm sorry, my little brother just went there to buy a watermelon."

With a proud expression on her face, she said again: "This girl from the Jie clan was rewarded by my father for his great achievements after the Northern Expedition to Zhao Li, and now she is a slave in my house!"

After the porters heard that Guan Ziyang was also a sergeant, and that the Jie girl was his father's trophy, everyone immediately respected him.

The porters laughed.

"After the son's loyalty, a misunderstanding..."

"What an offense, my lord..."

"I'm sorry, my lord, according to the rules of the Jiankang Wharf, barbarians are not allowed to go ashore..."

"Isn't it because I'm afraid that spy agents from the enemy country will sneak in? Everyone is a little more sensitive. Don't mind."

……

The movers apologized to each other, smiled and left.

Qingchan and Weiyi rushed over to help him wipe off the filth on his body, and asked, "Miss Shi, are you okay?"

Shi Qi stared at Guan Ziyang, lowered his voice and said, "Who is your slave? We Jie people worship warriors. You are already in your teens. You don't have any internal strength, so you are worthy?"

Shi Qi always thought that it was Wei Yiqing who beat her out of the water and subdued her.

There is no way, Guan Ziyang's innate aura cannot be sensed by her in this realm, and Guan Ziyang's usual playful smile makes him a wealthy son of the Eastern Jin Dynasty who is ignorant and incompetent.

Guan Ziyang didn't refute it either, it would be better to let her misunderstand, maybe someday trouble will come to her.

"Okay, this circle will also help you out, let's part ways now."

After Guan Ziyang finished speaking, he left on his own. Guan Zhengde hurriedly put on big bags and followed up. Seeing this, Qing Chan and Wei Yiqing had no choice but to say, "Sister Shi (sister), take care."

Seeing that Guan Ziyang and his party had left, Shi Qi, who was at a loss, looked at the Eastern Jin capital full of Han people and didn't know what to do.

Her blond hair and blue eyes are so conspicuous, maybe there will be similar encounters just now.

He thought to himself: "The only thing I can do is to beg Sister Qingchan again." He quickly followed.

When he arrived in Jiankang, it was of course the most convenient to seek refuge with his friends. Xie Yi once said that when he arrived in Jiankang, he would go to the Zijin Courtyard in Zhongshan, east of the city.

The Xie family is a top-notch family, with his help everything will be much easier.

But it's not suitable for me to drag my family with me, how should I put it.

It's just too philistine, the Eastern Jin Dynasty scholars advocate leisure and elegance, and my group of people go there, just like poor relatives who came to the countryside to seek refuge.

Guan Ziyang found an inn and asked them to settle down first.

Then I went to Zijin Bieyuan by myself.

Before leaving, Shi Qi suddenly said: "Hey, you promised sister Qingchan to help me find my father, don't forget."

Shi Qi, a troublesome person, has completely grasped Guan Ziyang's weakness.

Guan Ziyang ignored Wei Yiqing's words, his fourth uncle Guan Zhengde listened to Guan Ziyang in everything, only Qing Chan, Guan Ziyang obeyed her advice.

So in order for Guan Ziyang to help her find Shi Kun.

In front of Qingchan, she kept calling 'good sister' and 'beautiful sister', Qingchan was already soft-hearted, so she blew in Guan Ziyang's ear.

Got it!
It was agreed to go their separate ways when they got off the boat, but now they will part ways when they find his father.

Finding his father is actually a trivial matter. Since he is the Marquis of Ruyin, there must be a mansion of the Marquis, and he should know all about it if he asks any official.

The main reason is that Guan Ziyang doesn't want to get involved with his Shi family.

In history, Shi Kun's family was executed in 352!
What if you get caught up in it.

But Qing Chan begged, and the little girl Shi Qi was really pitiful, Guan Ziyang still agreed softly...
