Daming kill

Chapter 160 Gao Lei is very depressed

On December 15, 27th year of Chongzhen, in a large tent in a military camp outside the city of Hanyang Prefecture.

Two fourteen or fifteen-year-old girls were kneeling on the ground and shivering. All kinds of silk and satin and colorful dresses were scattered around them.

Gao Lei, who was sitting by the side, rubbed her temples for a long time, wanted to say something, but finally held back.

She has already exploded and doesn't want to continue.

Although Gao Lei is a little cold and arrogant, her temper has always been good, and she has never won people's preferences for venting her anger.

But she lost control just now, and it was very serious.

Suddenly, the thick curtain of the big tent was unceremoniously opened a crack without any greeting, and then Zhao Lanyue came in from the outside with a dazed expression.

"What's the matter, sister." Zhao Lanyue asked eagerly as soon as she entered the door.

But she got no answer.

Gao Lei's anger has not dissipated, and her face is still pale.

After carefully scanning the mess in the tent and the two girls who were holding back their tears, Zhao Lanyue sighed softly.

Carefully standing on tiptoe to avoid the fine silk and satin scattered on the ground, she went to Gao Lei's side, Zhao Lanyue squatted down and gently held Gao Lei's hand and said, "Who made you angry? I'll get it for you." revenge."

"What can you do? Who can stop him." Gao Lei raised her head with a wry smile.

It is impossible for her to continue to show face in front of Zhao Lanyue.

"He's here again? Have they sent you something again?" Zhao Lanyue asked for confirmation.

"Ok!"

Gao Lei's answer was full of helplessness.

Zhao Lanyue frowned slightly, turned her head to the two girls on the ground in displeasure, and said, "Why are you two so ignorant! It's not like you don't know that Miss doesn't like these things, why do you dare to take them in? You want the following Is it wrong?"

"Mr. Fang must let the slaves be sent to the young lady's tent. The slaves dare not refuse, and the slaves have nothing to do." A girl replied in fear.

It's good that the girl didn't answer, but when she answered, Zhao Lanyue also became angry.

She was even more dissatisfied and said: "Since Fang Wuke has sent you to Miss Gao, you are Miss Gao's servants, why should you listen to Fang Wuke's words? Now you can't tell who is your master?" ?”

Since Fang Wuke met Gao Lei by chance that day, he came here three or four times on the way to the east in the name of replenishing military supplies for Zhao Jin's troops, and tried to talk to Gao Lei every time.

Zuo Liangyu's army No. 16 entered the Hanyang prefecture, and as soon as Zhao Jin was stationed outside Hanyang County on No. 17, Fang Wuke forced these two girls to come here to be Gao Lei's maids.

He said that he couldn't bear to hear that there were no fine women around Gao Lei.

Then this party came more frequently without a subject, and every time he came again, he asked the two girls to deliver something to Gao Lei's tent.

Everything about food and clothing is fine.

However, it is said that these two girls have been here for ten days. It should be known that Gao Lei is not interested in their service, that the other party has no discipline, and these so-called good things.

For this reason, Gao Lei didn't even allow the two girls to approach her tent at all, let alone take Fang Wuke's things into her tent.

Gao Lei's attitude was clear and firm.

Today, these two girls probably broke in again, and finally annoyed Gao Lei who had been suppressing the fire.

"The slaves don't want to upset the lady, let alone dare to upset the lady. But Mr. Fang said, if you can't send it in, you will break our father and mother's legs..."

"Don't talk nonsense, have you lived enough!"

A girl's trembling answer should have only been halfway through when she was interrupted by another girl in horror.

"Then you're not afraid that we'll break your legs!" Zhao Lanyue retorted sharply, without any sympathy at all.

"Slaves dare not, slaves dare not."

"Slaves really can't do anything."

The two girls replied in a low voice in fear.

At this time, Gao Lei sighed for a long time, and then said impatiently: "You guys go out! Go out."

But she didn't say how to deal with the clothes and silks on the ground.

The two girls looked at each other a few times when they heard the words, and got up with relief and hurried out.

"Sister, you can't take their words seriously. Judging by their appearance, they may be trying to sell miserably on purpose!" Zhao Lanyue reminded.

But Gao Lei was not surprised at all. She said melancholy: "So what? They still only listen to that side."

Zhao Lanyue was also a little discouraged.

But soon she became angry again and said: "Zhao Jin is the same, it's enough to send these two girls back, why do you have to stay in the camp. Is it so difficult to make your attitude clear?"

On the issue of Fang Wuke, the troublesome Zhao Lanyue never made fun of Gao Lei.She knew it was a bad joke.

Therefore, she has always been very dissatisfied with Zhao Jin's attitude.

"It's not easy for Zhao Jin! It's not that he hasn't retired before. But Fang Wuke has an attitude of paying for brown sugar, and he always pulls the banner of his uncle Fang Guoan. Zhao Jin can't turn his back on Fang Wuke because of this matter." Let's go!" Gao Lei said leisurely.

Gao Lei, who used to be a small executive, can actually understand Zhao Jin's difficulty in supporting her left and right, which is why she has always been relatively restrained before.Especially along the way, they have seen too much pain, and she doesn't want everyone to take more risks because of herself.

"You! You're only thinking about other people. Sigh! I don't know where Li Ping has gone? If he was here, he would elope with you if he lost his temper." Zhao Lanyue finally couldn't help but laugh.

However, Gao Lei didn't care about Zhao Lanyue's joke, instead she said even more desolately: "Yeah! I don't know where Li Ping and the others went? Will they come to see us? Is he okay?"

Zhao Lanyue was a little stunned.

When she found out that she was in trouble, she quickly pretended to put her mind on the ground.

Then, her eyes widened involuntarily, and her hands couldn't help rummaging through the clothes and silks on the ground to pick them up.

"This batch of things is pretty good. It's much better than the previous ones. The patterns and stitching are all the best. I haven't seen many of them before." Zhao Lanyue said in surprise.

She's obviously done some research on this.

"The joy they robbed in Wuchang even dared to rob the family of Yanji, the supervising army and participating in politics who came to the army, and even robbed his daughter. There is nothing they can't rob." Gao Lei looked disapproving.

After Zuo Liangyu's army arrived in Hankou, he sent a letter to Wang Yanji, the supervising army and participating in politics in Wuchang Fucheng, expressing his willingness to be stationed in Wuchang and asking for military pay.For this reason, Wang Yangji took Lao Jun's money and goods to Hankou to meet Zuo Liangyu in person.

But Wang Yangji didn't leave until after finishing his work in the morning, and in the afternoon, the Zuo army crossed the river by themselves and looted everywhere.It just so happened that Wang Yangji's wife took her daughter back to her hometown to visit relatives. Zuo Jun not only robbed the mother and daughter of their belongings, but also robbed Miss Wang.

Because the incident was so big and unseemly, it spread quickly.

However, it also shows that Zuo Liangyu's army has been completely robbed along the way, and has long since lost their bottom line and any worries.

Zhao Lanyue's little surprise was chilled by Gao Lei's words.

No matter how good something is stained with blood, it will be disgusting and disgusting.

Zhao Lanyue said a little awkwardly: "Let's have someone send it to Zhao Jin! Otherwise, it's not good to be misunderstood. Those two little girls are obviously spies."

"No hurry. If you like, you can watch it here for a while, and then help me find someone to send to Zhao Jin. I'll go for a walk by the lake, to be quiet." Gao Lei stood up and said to Zhao Jin Walking outside the tent, Zhao Lanyue didn't even have a chance to reply.

Gao Lei's ideas have always been upright.

Hanyang Mansion is located about 500 miles downstream of Chengtianfu City (Zhongxiang). It is the smallest mansion in Huguang, with only two counties, Hanyang and Hanchuan.

Hanyang County is close to the mouth of the Yangtze River, and the county seat is on the south side of the Hanshui River.Hanchuan County is on the west side, and the county seat is on the north side of Hanshui River.

The Han River from the east flows into the Yangtze River from the south on the north side of Hanyang County, and Hanyang County, both of which are close to the Yangtze River, faces Wuchang Fucheng (Jiangxia County) across the Yangtze River.

Because Hanyang County is located in the area between the Han River and the Yangtze River, and most of them are flat land, there are many lakes in the territory, especially around the county town next to the two rivers.

The area where Zhao Jinbu was stationed was actually chosen beside a large lake.

Standing on a rock protruding into the lake, despite the cold wind blowing and the lake light soothing her, Gao Lei still couldn't calm down for a long time.

She is very troubled by her present situation.

Gao Lei realized that Sima Zhao's heart that Fang Wuke had shown her was likely to be a disaster.

She is just a poor lady, an orphan girl without any family members, outsiders like Zhao Jin have no good reason to stop Fang Wuke, who has status and status, from pursuing or even asking for her.

In particular, Fang Wuke still has extraordinary abilities. It is said that he has a very good personal relationship with Zuo Menggeng, Zhao Jin's direct superior. Zhao Jin really can't do much.

Then they are still in such an army of beasts, and even an official as big as the supervising army who participates in politics is not taken seriously, so what is she!
Her situation is far more troublesome than Zhao Lanyue's.

No matter what, Zhao Lanyue and Ming Media are marrying. With the backing of the family's side branches and reputation, they can have the time and capital to deal with it.

But what about her?
Thinking of these, Gao Lei was full of depression.

She couldn't help thinking of Li Ping again.

She believed that if Li Ping was here, he would have a better way, and he would never let her be in such a whirlpool.

She didn't know why, but she believed him.

"Miss is so elegant, the lake here is really unique." Fang Wuke's voice suddenly floated from behind.

Gao Lei's head suddenly buzzed.

I'm really afraid of what's coming!
Turning around, a powder-faced young man wearing a blue lake shirt and shaking a fan was approaching with a smile.

Behind him were two healthy servants in blue and without armor.

Gao Lei immediately returned to the shore from the rock protruding into the water, and then said coldly: "Fang Bazong, do you have nothing to do in your own camp?"

"Call me Mr. Fang! Why do you keep forgetting. As I said, I don't like fighting and killing." Fang Wuke shook his fan twice and shook his head.

His other hand flicked the expensive Huluo shirt twice after he finished speaking, as if he was afraid that Gao Lei would not notice that he had changed into a different style of Huluo shirt today.

The dress fashion of scholars in the late Ming Dynasty is very peculiar. The old "simple" dress fashion has long since disappeared at this time, and the extravagance is very serious, and even starts to go wrong.

Just like the bijia in the Ming Dynasty, it was originally worn by women, but it became a regular clothing for men in the late Ming Dynasty.

During the Wanli period, Huluo clothing was still a luxury that most scholars could not afford.But during the reign of Chongzhen, almost all the scholars wore Huluo shirts, so that anyone who didn't use Huluo clothes was bound to be laughed at.

Although Fang Wuke is not a real scholar, let alone the fame of a scholar, this does not prevent him from actively approaching the fashion of scholars.

However, his pretentious and somewhat sissy style turned out to be a complete clown in front of Gao Lei, not only did not bring him the slightest help, but on the contrary made him disgusted and ridiculous.

"It turns out that Fang Ba always came here to enjoy the lake scenery? Then I will let you here." Gao Lei continued to ignore Fang Wuke's request.

But Fang Wuke didn't seem to care about it at all, he just smiled and said: "Today, under the command of the commander-in-chief, I'm here to discuss some military affairs with General Zhao, and also to replenish some military supplies for his battalion. I was a little tired just now, so I came out to get some air , I don't want to meet a beautiful woman again, we are really destined!"

"I'm tired, I'm going back to rest." Gao Lei's expression was still cold, and she didn't intend to continue the similar conversation this time.

But Fang Wuke suddenly rushed forward, stood in front of Gao Lei and said: "Miss, Wuchang Mansion is very prosperous. But if you have any needs, please tell someone on our side. It's kind of thin, there's nothing I can't satisfy you."

"I'm not interested, get out of the way." Gao Lei's face changed drastically.

Fang Wuke looked at Gao Lei who was a bit at a loss and smiled, then he obediently moved aside and arched his hands and said, "Miss Wuxin abrupt, let's see you again."

Seeing Gao Lei go away mercilessly, a servant in Tsing Yi behind Fang Wuke couldn't help but said: "Young Master, this Miss Gao's attitude has always been like this, she really doesn't know how to flatter her. Why do you bother to treat such a The lady who is homeless and jobless has put in all her effort. Just let General Zhao ask for it, and General Zhao will not give you face if you think about it."

These two servants in Tsing Yi are both Fang Wuke's guards and his servants, and they dress up like this only to cater to Fang Wuke's hobbies.

"You don't understand. The harder it is to get, the more exciting it is, not to mention that she is such a unique beauty. As long as I see her cold and pretty face, and her tall and concave figure, I will fall in love with you, my lord." " Fang Wuke continued to stare at Gao Lei's distant figure with a beautiful face and said.

"I heard that Miss Gao and that guerrilla surnamed Li are ambiguous, but she pretends to be a jade girl in front of you. I really can't afford to treat you so hard." Another servant in Tsing Yi suddenly came to spoil the scenery. said a word.

Fang Wuke immediately turned his head and said in dissatisfaction: "Are you questioning my son's vision? I have already inquired. This Miss Gao has always been dignified, and she can read and write. I heard that she is also a goddess doctor. Besides, my son, I also read girls." Countless, how can you miss it."

"The little one doesn't dare, the little one knows his mistake, please punish me, my lord." The healthy servant in Tsing Yi who said something wrong hastily admitted his mistake.

Although Fang Wuke said it nicely, he must have been affected a bit.

He said sullenly: "This little lady is indeed a bit difficult to deal with, it will delay my energy too much."

However, after saying this, he hurriedly chased after Gao Lei's figure, his eyes lit up again, and he wiped the haha ​​that suddenly flowed from the corner of his mouth with his sleeve.

Gao Lei, who had been walking away stiffly, couldn't help but tremble at this moment, she knew very well that she was being closely watched all the time.

She couldn't help but another thought popped up in her heart: "Li Ping, where are you?"

Notes:

At the end of the Ming Dynasty, there were two Fang Guoan, one for Wen and one for Wu.

Which Fang Guoan's nephew Fang Wuke is has not been investigated in detail. This article only places him with Wu's Fang Guoan.

However, the real Fang Wuke did serve as general manager, and his military discipline was extremely bad.
