Ping An Biography

Will Zhu Yong continue to attack after the defeat, or wait for reinforcements?Zhang Ning couldn't judge accurately, but he was more inclined to think that Zhu Yong would choose to continue to attack; a person who was defeated by "strange|obscene tricks" instead of facing an absolute advantage in strength would naturally not be convinced.What's more, Zhu Yong is an honorable man with high self-esteem, he will not give in so easily and be depressed.He would think that he had so many opportunities and possibilities to win, but it was just a momentary mistake, so he would still want to try; besides, men are born gamblers. .

Of course, this is just Zhang Ning's own speculation. All he has to do is to wait patiently and hope that Zhu Yong will not admit defeat so easily.Otherwise, it would obviously be a disadvantage to take the initiative to attack the camp of the official army with the strength of the Suzaku army; or wait for the arrival of reinforcements from the official army, this will be a hopeless war of attrition, Yuezhou soldiers, Changsha soldiers... Daming has two The thirteen provinces of Beijing, even if the main force of the Beijing camp was restrained by Han Wang Zhu Gaoxu, still had almost inexhaustible war potential.

In this almost hopeless state of mind, Zhang Ning actually felt a little happy, a pessimist suddenly found a unique happiness.Pessimism is not owned by Zhang Ning in this life. A small landlord who lives in a prosperous place in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, who has the opportunity to study and gain fame, is considered lucky even if his "parents" die early. Why is a lucky person pessimistic?So Zhang Ning's mentality is brought about by his "previous life". The formation of his personality had a great influence before he became an adult. However, Zhang Ning's childhood in the Ming Dynasty was just a memory for him, like a story, and it didn't matter to him. Not much effect.

Looking back, my family was not so happy when I was a child. There were always all kinds of troubles and difficulties, and I experienced the loss of the closest people.Later, although he was a bit "promising" in the eyes of his neighbors, he still lived a hard, busy but ordinary life.Zhang Ning feels that his life is incomplete, even if he is a well-behaved and diligent person in the eyes of others.At last his chance, War tapped his repressed interest.

... There is a "Zuixian Building" behind the Gaodu County Government Office. The name sounds like a profitable restaurant, but it is not.This building is next to the backyard of the county government. It was occupied by the former county magistrate and does not receive ordinary guests.Its function is mainly to cook and eat. The former magistrate is obviously a person who knows how to enjoy himself.

But now he is requisitioned by Zhang Ning. He is also a person who cares about food very much. Cooking was almost his only leisure activity in his previous life; he can relax in it and not waste time, because people always have to cook when they are alive , and he is not someone who can hire a babysitter.The reason why he is willing to live in Zuixianlou is very simple. The kitchen here is very big; ordinary kitchens are not so good. People in Guochao say that food is the most important thing, but the kitchen is always underestimated in the corner.

The war has not yet ended, and the victory has not really come. The generals and officials are not interested in celebrating, but this does not stop Zhang Ning from celebrating in private.His way is to cook a dinner himself, of course not only him, but also Peach Blossom Fairy and Xu Wenjun beside him.A gentleman stays away from the kitchen. If a person with great power cooks in the kitchen, he will be regarded as having no ambitions, which is not a good thing anyway; but Zhang Ning doesn't care, because there are no outsiders around, and of course women don't care about such things thing.

The place to eat is in an exquisite living room. It was definitely not a dining room originally, but as long as a round table and a few stools are placed, it can be used as a dining room.The room is relatively small, but the former magistrate must have spent a lot of effort in decorating it. There are famous paintings on the wall and works of famous calligraphers in history as decorations. They may be fakes, but they do not affect the elegant style; the bamboo curtains in front of the windows have been carefully decorated with texture .It doesn't look luxurious here, but it has a natural elegance.It may be the place where Nazhi County meets and chats with people such as courtesans and celebrities.

Zhang Ning doesn't care about its smallness, but prefers it.Perhaps it was because of his inner habit, of course he couldn't afford to live in a house as big as a palace before, so he was very at ease in such a small house.

The raw materials of the dishes don't need to be rare, they are all very common things, but as long as they are cooked with care, they can still be a few delicious dishes.The ingredients in this era do not contain pesticides, chemical fertilizers, feed, and the environment is not polluted. As long as things are taken from ordinary farmers, they are all good ingredients in Zhang Ning's opinion.The fat and thin bacon is sliced ​​into thin slices and arranged on a porcelain plate. The fat meat is crystal clear and light yellow in color, which looks delicious, and it emits a kind of rosin, which is the smell left when it is smoked with pine branches.There is also a piece of shiitake mushroom meat. The shiitake mushrooms come from the mountains, but ginger slices are put in this soup, because Zhang Ning doesn't like the light fishy smell of the meat itself... The fishy smell reminds him of blood, intestines, and so on on the battlefield. Physically, it affects the mood.

He is not a bloodthirsty person, the interest that war gives him is not killing, but itself.It was an indescribable excitement, like a drunken man who goes into a tavern, and the very fact of it makes him very happy;

"Congratulations on the victory of the Ping'an flag, and I wish the people who defeat Zhu Yong again in the future. I offer you a toast." Peach Blossom Fairy held up the glass and said with a smile.

For this dinner, she carefully applied light makeup on her face, and modified the facial lines on her left cheek, and put on a skirt made of silk, looking radiant.Perhaps in her opinion, this is not just a meal.

"Auspicious words from the fairy." Zhang Ning responded gently.

Xu Wenjun said: "I don't drink, so I use tea instead of wine. I also congratulate my master on his return from victory." After she said that, she wanted to take the cup again.

Zhang Ning persuaded: "This is wine from the magistrate's warehouse. It's sweet. You might as well try it."

After hearing this, Xu Wenjun blushed slightly, and he reached out and gently picked up the glass cup containing the wine.Her hands are actually a bit rough, because of martial arts and housework, but at this moment, beside the crystal wine glass and the dark red color of the wine, under the gentle candlelight, it seems to become as warm as white jade.

Women should be beautiful things. They naturally like an elegant environment and the feeling of being valued by others. In other words, it may be called vanity.Zhang Ning observed that after they finished cooking together, they all went back to the room and dressed up carefully. Maybe they liked the atmosphere at the moment.

But Zhang Ning felt that it was a bit hypocritical at this time, although he didn't take it seriously.Seeing that Xu Wenjun took a sip, he added: "Maybe the wine is made in Shanxi. It is said that the wine made from fruit is the best over there." Well, Hedong has always been a good place.

Xu Wenjun seemed embarrassed and said softly: "It really is sweet."

"This wine glass is pretty, but the local officials in Gaodu County are also particular about it." Peach Blossom Fairy laughed.

Zhang Ning said: "There is a poem saying, grape wine luminous glass. Grape wine should be served in luminous glass, and luminous glass is probably made of colored glaze." He said while playing with the wine glass in his hand, thinking that he can call a craftsman when he is free Re-shape the goblet.

He also thought about why people are hypocritical, maybe there is a group of people like celebrities who are flaunting themselves.But Zhang Ning is obviously not that kind of person. There is another kind. He has gradually become numb and unable to feel the ordinary warmth and joy in the little things of life like many people, so he has to do some more direct surface work. , so it became hypocritical.

He is a bit depressed, not easy to cheer up, or the general things have not aroused interest, so that he finds it boring, so sometimes he looks for more exciting things.This is not uncommon in the ruling class, most people's way is to indulge | desire |For Zhang Ning, the most exciting thing is to break the rules, because he has always been too strict with the rules.

After dinner, this elegant way of getting along was quickly destroyed by Zhang Ning.

Before he went back to his room, he asked Peach Blossom Fairy to pick up some things under the pretext.Peach Blossom Fairy might have guessed something, but she didn't refuse.Maybe Zhang Ning should choose Xu Wenjun, but Wenjun is a girl who has no experience in personnel affairs, and she is still a little childish, so it may be a little troublesome to deal with.

As soon as Peach Blossom Fairy entered the bedroom, Zhang Ning's desire was immediately aroused by her flexible waist when she walked and the outline of her buttocks displayed in a skirt.Occasional indulgence|desire|desire will make him feel alive.The friendship between the two is not short, and Zhang Ning can tell that this woman does not resist him.

Looking from the top of Zuixian Tower, the night view of the buildings and lights of the county government house is in front of you. It is a quiet night, and there is no trace of war on the surface.There was a thin drizzle in the night sky tonight, and he couldn't help but slowly recited a familiar poem: "The small building listened to the spring rain all night." What a warm night.

Peach Blossom Fairy is slightly intoxicated. Her upbringing experience was not good, but her father who died young was a Jinshi. She likes things related to literature and ink, such as poetry and songs.Zhang Ning gradually got close to her, and she didn't resist, let alone resist.Women who have run across the rivers and lakes are much less restrained by ethics, so they are still easy to win.

Zhang Ning looked at her sexy|sexy vermilion lips that had been carefully applied with rouge, and asked her to use her mouth to refresh herself.Unexpectedly, Peach Blossom Fairy refused at this time, and she was very ashamed and angry...

"Who do you take me for?" Peach Blossom Fairy looked hurt.

This surprised Zhang Ning, thinking that the use of mouth|tongue was not popular in ancient times.But Fang Ling also did this before. Fang Ling was forced to be a brothel girl, but isn't she and Peach Blossom Fairy sisters?Zhang Ning refrained from saying, because he didn't want to compare other women with Peach Blossom Fairy at this time, which would make her even more angry.

He didn't answer Peach Blossom Fairy's question, but said, "I'll lick you too later."

"..." Her face was already red as if she was drunk, "I... this is too much... I'm going first, please let me be quiet."

Zhang Ning stood there stunned, he had no way to force this woman, because her body was no match for her at all.
