Ping An Biography

"You are such a beast..." Bai Fengjiao cursed feebly while wrapping herself in the quilt, and then a look of pain appeared on her angry face, "It hurts so much, I can't stand the pain now."

Her hair was disheveled, her face was pale with tears, and she looked miserable like pear blossoms and rain, as if she had been abused by others, rather than voluntarily.After resting for a while, she saw that Zhang Ning was speechless, so she asked, "Are you all so bad, why are all the books written in a dignified manner?"

Zhang Ning said: "You used the secret medicine yourself, I just cooperated with you. It is the first time I have seen such a mysterious thing in the world."

"But you can't take advantage of other people's danger!" Bai Fengjiao wanted to cry without tears, "Why do you want to take advantage of other people's uncomfortable times and threaten me to do that embarrassing...disgusting thing?"

He couldn't explain it, but in retrospect, he just saw her so uncontrollably, couldn't help it, it seemed like a natural rule.Perhaps at a certain time, doing something that is unimaginable at ordinary times is a way of expression and a release of emotions.

Compared with Bai Fengjiao's embarrassment now, Zhang Ning couldn't help but secretly rejoice, like a fun-loving person who is surprised to find a very fun game.The sense of psychological satisfaction afterwards, the sense of relief from stress release, and the refreshment are simply indescribable.

……

In the Guizhou State Mansion in Yunnan, Mu Sheng, who is in his 60s, is also playing with women, and he is getting together with Zheng Qia who has just arrived.A group of young girls were singing and dancing in front of them. They were all beautiful girls selected from various local ethnic groups, and there were even girls from Cochin and Champa who came from afar.They only wore underwear, and to the sound of drums, they leaned close to the host and distinguished guests, twisted their waists, turned their bodies, and showed the most seductive parts for a few old guys to appreciate.

In the majestic hall, some women only wore bellybands, some only had a cloth scarf on their chests, and some wore extremely short skirts, not to mention bare legs, and their movements were a little louder, even the private parts of the shameful people in the group were faintly visible. The scene is extremely wild | lewd.

There were some strong men in cloth robes standing by the wall. These people were dressed like literati, but at first glance, the round-waisted and thick-shouldered figures were guards, and some of them had beards on their faces.Other maids stood with lowered eyebrows.

"Who does my old friend take a fancy to and ask her to sleep with her, or send them all to your room." Mu Sheng laughed.

Zheng Qia didn't change his face, he didn't pretend to be a gentleman, and even admired the beauty with great interest.This is probably one of Zheng Qia's abilities appreciated by Jianwen. He is a gentleman, but he can get along with any kind of people and never let his allies lose face.

Zheng Qia also thought about the intention of Qian Guogong to treat him with such "graciousness", but he still felt that his kindness was more than making things difficult. He had never encountered a case of using a beauty to make things difficult for a guest.Today's reception did not invite local officials and celebrities from Yunnan, they are all from the mansion, so there is no need to put on a show.But Zheng Qia still cherishes his own image, even in front of these servants who have no identity around him, he is not willing to be inconsistent with the outside... But these beautiful girls are really tempting, he can't deceive himself, men will inevitably like them beauty.It's just that he has good concentration, so he won't be too happy to see a group of beauties.

"Duke Qian's kindness is appreciated." Zheng Qia spoke calmly and slowly.Claiming to be a younger brother, he is a little closer to Wufu.Mu Sheng, Duke of Qian, not Marquis Pingxi, also recognized Emperor Yongle's allotment to him; because in terms of legitimacy, Jianwen did not recognize the title of "King of Yan".Between the words, he expressed his recognition of the dukedom of Qianguo, and he also hinted that he did not care about Mu Sheng's dedication to all the emperors of the Yan Dynasty over the years.

Zheng Qia paused and said: "However, my younger brother is also getting older, so I really have more than enough heart and not enough energy."

After hearing this, Mu Sheng looked at each other and laughed with the two accompanying staff members, and said with a smile: "The old man is nearly seventy years old, and he can eat one chicken and three bowls of rice, drink a bucket of wine, and spend the night with the three daughters. Mr. Zheng is not yet Up to fifty? Is that more than enough energy?"

Zheng Qia said: "The Duke of the state is today's Lian Po, how dare the younger brother compare!"

The staff next to him reminded: "The Duke also has handsome young students here, Mr. Zheng, would you be interested in taking a look?"

Zheng Qia was stunned.

Another staff member's face was flushed red.Zheng Qia hurriedly explained: "Sir, you should know that the rumors that civil servants are good at Longyang are exaggerated, but since the Taizu, officials have been strictly prohibited from interfering with each other, and many officials in Beijing have no family members by their side, and they dare not violate the law to seek flowers and ask willows, so Find that Xiaosheng as a good friend. I haven't been in Beijing for many years, so I don't have this hobby."

After finishing speaking, he looked at Mu Sheng, and the two of them looked at each other and smiled wretchedly.

Mu Sheng turned around and blamed: "Speak nonsense, three cups of self-punishment."

"Yes, yes." The staff did not refuse, first poured three glasses of wine down to apologize, and poured wine for Zheng Qia.

After the banquet, Mu Sheng saw that Zheng Qia had no intention of choosing beauties for sex, and he didn't force him, so he asked people to withdraw the food and drink, dispersed the girls singing and dancing, and invited Zheng Qia to visit the courtyard of the mansion.

The four seasons here are like spring, even though it is the season of the twelfth lunar month, but the coldness of the Central Plains is not felt at all, and the courtyard is beautiful with beautiful mountains and clear waters.Zheng Qia's words were full of envy, but they were not just polite words. After the "Jing Nan" battle, a large number of officials from the central government to the local government changed, but Duke Qian still enjoyed the high position and wealth. , although I lived in a borderland all my life, there is nothing wrong with a pleasant climate, prosperity and wealth.

Emperor Jianwen's handwritten letter had already been handed over to Mu Sheng, but Zheng Qia knew the content completely, because he wrote the content, and Emperor Jianwen just copied it.

The letter did not ask Mu Sheng to immediately change his flag and announce his position to the world, but to renew the old friendship and explain that he sent his "old friend" Zheng Qia to visit Mu Sheng... Now it seems that Zheng Qia feels that what he did was completely correct Yes, Renmu's family lived a good life here, so asking him to break with the imperial court is indeed a bit difficult and unhuman.

Because Mu Sheng wasn't Fang Xiaoru, otherwise he wouldn't be able to rise to the rank after Yongle came to power.But he is not a good stubble, the sky is high here and the emperor is far away, and he holds military power and has a high prestige in the local area. Ai and Jianwen flirt with each other for a while, and no one will do anything to him.

After walking for a while in the stone bridge path, the staff and followers saw the smile on the master's face gradually subdued, so they followed behind them knowingly and did not disturb them.

Showing favor to Mu Sheng and wooing the Yunnan warlords is not just for the sake of money.Zheng Qia thought to himself, when the imperial court dispatched troops from Yunnan, Guizhou and Guangxi to attack Jiaozhi, they fought many big battles one after another.In the future, the North has no choice but to transfer the Southwest Military King. With Mu Sheng in the middle and Xi Ni, I am afraid that the transfer of the Northern Dynasty will not be so smooth.

At this moment, Zheng Qia said: "The emperor wants to urgently need 13 jin of fine copper materials in Yunnan. The Duke can hand over this matter to the smuggling "merchant". Both the Emperor and the King of Xiang will remember this favor."

In terms of favors, Jianwen also helped mediate the relationship between Mu Sheng and the local vassal back then, and it seems that Mu Sheng has not repaid this favor.But Zheng Qia understands that he should try to be as humble as possible now... Just like Mu Sheng wanted to protect Emperor Jianwen, who was already like a bereaved dog, for the purpose of friendship, you can no longer demand him with a domineering attitude.

"What does the emperor want these coppers for?" Mu Sheng asked.A joke at the wine table is a joke, he is still a very calm and experienced person.

"Building artillery." Zheng Qia said honestly, "A new type of artillery. We defeated the Northern Army several times with the weak and the strong. The firearms played a great role."

"Oh..." Mu Sheng nodded with an understanding expression.When his father, Mu Ying, entered Yunnan, large-scale rebellions broke out among the young people everywhere. He relied on firearms and three-stage strike tactics to gain an advantage on the frontal battlefield, so he had a deep understanding of firearms and military affairs.

After a while, Mu Sheng said: "Don't dare to let the emperor remember favors, the emperor is kind to his ministers."

Zheng Qia breathed a sigh of relief at this remark, feeling that the matter was almost half settled.Thinking about it, even if Mu Sheng is not a loyal minister, but just a fool, placing a bet on the Xiangwang Group at a critical moment would do more good than harm.This matter is feasible, and Zheng Qia also wants to rely on this matter to make another contribution; the current contribution is to accumulate political capital in the future under the new government structure.

Zheng Qia was not satisfied with only getting copper materials from Mu Sheng, and tried again: "The copper is going to be shipped to Jiujiang, Jiangxi, and Yunnan, so we have to go to Guizhou? Once it enters Huguang, there is nothing to worry about. We control the copper over there." territory, but Guizhou is not easy to go.”

Mu Sheng said: "Your Majesty Zheng, don't worry, Guizhou Wei has all the brothers who died with this old man."

"Then don't worry, little brother." Zheng Qia suddenly said.I am really relieved, as expected, Duke Qian has connections in the Yungui Guards, and capturing a Duke Qian is equivalent to establishing relationships with a large number of generals.

Zheng Qia said in a very casual tone: "In addition to setting up defenses on the nine borders, the imperial court also has defenses in Guizhou and Guangxi in the southwest. Among the generals in the town, there is a brother who died of Duke Qian. The civil and military layout of the imperial court is indeed a bit strange."

"There was no such thing during the Yongle period." Mu Sheng smiled and looked over, "After all, the Emperor Xuande is too young, so I was on guard against Yang Rong. In the first year, Jiaozhi was in full swing, and the imperial court hastily ordered the old man to discuss with Anyuanhou Liusheng. As a result, Liusheng fought loudly, but he was defeated and died. Therefore, the positions in the army are arranged in a mess, and Yang Rong is far away in the capital, so I haven't figured out the situation yet."

After hearing this, Zheng Qia suddenly said: "Little brother just loves Brother Mu's temperament, he is straightforward."

The two laughed heartily again.

Mu Sheng said again: "What Brother Zheng said just now is not a big deal, it's just 13 jin of copper, and it's a trivial matter to pull hundreds of mules. That's it, I'm not going to make a fuss, Brother Zheng Just stay here for a while and monitor how things are going."

Zheng Qia hurriedly said: "Don't dare."

I don't know if he didn't dare to let Mu Sheng call Brother Zheng or if he didn't dare to intervene in things.
