Crazy at the end of the Ming Dynasty

Since he can become a male publicist, Ma Shouxin must have a good affinity, and he must be good at dealing with people. In addition, men and women in Jiangnan are handsome and good at dressing up, so Wu Shigong's first impression of Ma Shouxin is very good.

Then Wu Shigong heard Ma Shouxin introduce the list of accompanying guests.But no matter how they are friends.The accompanying guests arranged by Xu Wenjue were also the children of the most distinguished officials and eunuchs in Nanjing.

Different from those powerless nobles in Beijing, the nobles in Nanjing still have some power.It should be said that the power is not small. For example, Wei Guogong is the garrison of Nanjing City. He has three thousand private soldiers in Nanjing City.

Therefore, whether it is wealth or actual power, the nobles in Nanjing City are higher than those in Beijing, but they are despised by the nobles in Beijing.This is why Wei Guogong was willing to bleed heavily, and he also wanted to slap the nobles of Beijing in the face by entertaining Wu Shigong.

But Wu Shigong didn't care about these things, he only knew that the quality of accompanying guests was quite high, so he also saw that his son Xu Wenjue valued him.And since he paid attention to it, the matter of borrowing money from each other will go much smoother.

Then, of course, Ma Shouxin boasted about the high class of the reception venue and how Gu Hengbo, who was invited to accompany Gu everyone, was like, and Liu Rushi was like Liu everyone.

Of course, while bragging, Ma Shouxin deliberately pretended to inadvertently reveal the cost of the banquet - more than 8000 taels of silver.Anyway, it was to show off in front of Wu Shigong, the more expenses reported, the better.Besides, how could a country bumpkin from the north like Wu Shigong understand the market for Jinling's enchanting Huadan to accompany him once?

But Wu Shigong, who was in the excitement, didn't notice Ma Shouxin's bragging at all.All he knew was that the venue was high-end, and this once again proved that the eldest son Xu Wenjue valued him!

Wu Shigong doesn't care about Master Gu and Master Liu at all, he just needs to know that these are women who accompany him and make him happy.Besides.It's not like Wu Shigong has never seen famous prostitutes before, and now there is a former famous prostitute with a big belly in Wu Shigong's inner house.

Besides, Wu Shigong is now preoccupied with borrowing money, and has no time to care about any women at all.Otherwise, when Wu Shigong borrowed 3000 taels of silver from the wives in the inner house, Wu Shigong forgot to be serious, and did not borrow the money back in Nanjing, but brought back a few women?Aren't the wives in the inner house trying to blackmail Wu Shigong for 1 years?

Anyway, Wu Shigong and Ma Shouxin are the guests and hosts enjoying themselves.In the Ming Dynasty, invitations were rarely invited on the same day.Generally, invitations are made a few days in advance, so the banquet arranged by the eldest son Xu Wenjue is on the next night.

But after Ma Shouxin left, Wu Shigong also had some aftertaste.How could I suddenly become popular after being coldly received in Nanjing City?In fact, this is also very normal.Even when he was in the capital, Wu Shigong did not climb to the top of the "princelings" of the Ming Dynasty, so he could not reach the level of understanding the comparison psychology of the nobles from the north and the south, so he couldn't guess the correct reason. .

If something goes wrong, there will be a demon!So throughout the day the next day, Wu Shigong's spirit was always in a trance.He was worried about whether the actual situation of his Runing Army had been leaked.Did these honorable men of Nanjing truly understand the strength of their Runing Army?That's why they are so arrogant?But this is not in line with my idea of ​​keeping a low profile?

So when Tao Xin asked Wu Shigong for leave and wanted to go shopping in Nanjing to buy gifts for Xiaojie.Wu Shigong was scolded because of his bad temper.But Wu Shigong couldn't think of a reason.So in the end I decided to go with the flow.Anyway, if something happens, it will be covered up.

For this reason, even though he knew that Xu Wenjue invited him to a grand banquet, Wu Shigong still sent all his guards out.And in the afternoon of the next day, Wu Shigong rented a carriage from the inn and rushed to Chaoku Street.

However, when Wu Shigong saw the envious eyes of the shopkeeper of the inn knowing that he was going to Chaoku Street, Wu Shigong still couldn't help being a little bit elated.Do you feel that your suspicion is too serious?

Chaoku Street is not far from Wu Shigong's inn.But when the carriage arrived outside Chaoku Street, it was immediately blocked by the bustling crowd.And Wu Shigong's identity is not enough, he can't drive the carriage into Chaoku Street, so Wu Shigong also got off the carriage.Under the protection of more than [-] guards led by Tao Xin, they walked towards Meilou.

Wu Shigong got out of the carriage and couldn't help but gasped.This scene is really too unusual, Chaoku Street is really too lively, there is a flow of people coming and going.

As for the carriages and horses that can enter Chaoku Street here, there are almost no old styles, and they are all decorated with exquisite decoration.It can be seen from the wheel carriages and the saddles and bridles of the horses that the identity of the owner is either rich or noble.

Through the open spaces between the houses.You can already see the meandering Qinhuai River.In modern times, Wu Shigong also visited Nanjing, and the Qinhuai River in his impression is a dirty river.But now it's different,

There are boats floating on the Qinhuai River, and the houses on the roadside have different styles.Although some of them are in the busy city, they look a bit elegant, but the doorway is still shaded by trees, and the pavilions and waterside pavilions inside can be seen vaguely.Others are magnificent and full of extravagance.It seems that things like exceeding the limit are not discussed here.

Although he was in a crowded crowd, Wu Shigong was still leisurely admiring the most prosperous Fengyue District in the world at that time.Although the flow of people is fast.Although the voice was noisy, it did not affect Wu Shigong.After Wu Shigong was assassinated in Runing Fucheng, the guards around him had already conducted special training on how to protect Wu Shigong.So everyone was separated by more than ten steps away from Wu Shigong.

And the people on Chaoku Street, seeing Wu Shigong with so many guards, also knew that Wu Shigong's status was either rich or noble, so they all kept away from Wu Shigong's pedestrians.

But after all, it was impossible for Wu Shigong to run amok in the middle of Chaoku Street, so unknowingly, they were pushed to the side of the road.

And at the door of the building in front, there happened to be a group of people waiting to welcome the guests.On the periphery of this group of people, there is also a row of guards densely surrounded.

Wu Shigong didn't notice this situation either, he was still watching the scenery of Chaoku Street, so the two groups of people intersected.Of course, the gang of bad boys under Wu Shigong have always been "my lord is the biggest!" They are also used to rampage in Henan, so when they saw his lord's walking route, they didn't remind Wu Shigong to take a detour at all, just pushing and standing there The guards outside the building asked them to make way for Wu Shigong.

Seeing Wu Shigong and his group rushing forward, those guards also pushed Wu Shigong's guards, and they were still spitting some birdsong, which probably meant to let Wu Shigong and the others get out of the way.

But when the two sides pushed, they immediately felt something was wrong.Because from the actions and positions of the other party, they all felt that the other party was a character soaked in blood.So without hesitation, the guards on both sides drew short knives and iron bars from their bodies.
