Jinghong Building

When He Ran and Yao Linlang finished talking and returned to the next door again, Zhou Cangyue leaned on the big-faced pillow, covered her face with newspapers, and she slept soundly.

He Ran smiled and shook his head, reached out to pick up the newspaper, but he was shocked to Zhou Cangyue's wide eyes last year.

"Are you pretending to be asleep?" He Ran asked.

Zhou Cangyue grinned, revealing a mouthful of snow-white teeth.

"I didn't pretend. I was really asleep, but I woke up as soon as you came in." Zhou Cangyue quickly explained.

He Ran frowned: "Is my footsteps so obvious?"

Zhou Cangyue hurriedly said, "That's not. I'm a habit. You know, as beggars, we have finally got some money, so we must beware of being stolen at all times, so we must keep one even if we sleep. Ears. Over time, it becomes a habit."

He Ran was curious when he heard that he was a beggar and asked, "You are not good at putting beggars on the beggars, why did you change your career to become a corpse-catching man?"

Zhou Cangyue was about to speak when he suddenly thought of something, his lips tightly pursed, and he was stunned for a moment, and after a while, he said, "I think about it now. The reason why my adoptive father asked me to return to Wanchun at that time was to give me experience, and to me. I went back to where my grandmother and mother lived, but unfortunately I didn’t understand until now.”

He Ran became more and more sure that the old leader of the Beggars' Sect was once Zhou Ying's little fan.

After so many years, if it weren't for this old gang leader, Zhou Ying would have probably fallen into the world.

"Then why did he ask you to dress up as a girl?" He Ran still remembered Zhou Cangyue said that this was the adoptive father's request, and he must be eighteen years old to restore his status as a man.

Zhou Cangyue sighed: "I actually wore men's clothes when I was a child. Later, one day, my adoptive father came back from outside and stared at me. After a while, he said that he asked the fortune teller to forget about me, I must dress up as A woman, otherwise she would not have lived to be eighteen years old. From that day on, I changed into women's clothing.

Thinking about it now, this fortune teller's blind fortune teller is probably an excuse for his adoptive father.

Maybe he just doesn't want me to know my true identity.

After I was eighteen years old, I had grown up and had enough ability to protect myself, and then I would be restored to my masculine identity. ”

He Ran laughed: "Don't say it, if you didn't admit it yourself, I really didn't realize you were a man."

Zhou Cangyue was stunned: "What did I say myself? When?"

He Ran: "It was the time when you came to the capital and stole Fang Wuyou. That night, you got drunk and said drunk that you were a man."

Zhou Cangyue. Drinking is a mistake!

In fact, that time, Zhou Cangyue only drank one drink.

It was not until the afternoon when Zhong Yi and others came to see He Ran that Zhou Cangyue said goodbye.

Looking at Zhou Cangyue's departure back, Zhong Yi narrowed his eyes slightly: "When did Zhou Cangyue come to the capital?"

He Ran looked at him: "Commander Zhong, have you been too busy recently? Zhou Cangyue came to Jinling. You don't know about such a big thing?"

Zhong Yi's face turned pale, he really didn't know.

No matter whether Zhou Cangyue is an enemy or a friend, he is now a person standing at the forefront of the storm. His every move can affect the changes in the current situation.

But he appeared in Jinling at this time.

But as the commander of the Jinyiwei, I didn’t know!

Zhong Yi bowed to the ground: "I am dereliction of duty, please punish me."

He Ran's voice was cold and distant: "Commander Zhong summarized the recent errands and handed them over to me."

"Yes, my subordinates will accept the order." Zhong Yi hurriedly said.

He Ran said: "You go and check someone. His surname is Zhou. It may be from Zhoujiabao."

Zhong Yi walked out of Renyi Mansion and said to his subordinates who were waiting outside: "Which direction did Zhou Cangyue go just now? Have you sent someone to follow him?"

His subordinate pointed and said, "The Mavericks and the Pony are gone."

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhong Yi saw the two people returning dejectedly: "You said you sent them two? Are you back so soon?"

Xiao Niu and Xiao Ma didn't expect Zhong Yi to be there, and they felt even more guilty: "I am incompetent, so Zhou Cangyue is even more slim than Loach, so I lost the person."

Zhong Yi waved his hand and signaled that they didn't need to say anything more: "Just rely on you two, you may not be Zhou Cangyue's opponent for another ten years. Forget it, let's go."

The Mavericks and the Male looked at each other. When did Commander Zhong be so easy to talk to?

They didn't know that Zhong Yi was in a very complicated mood at this moment.

That person is not only Zhou Cangyue, the Grand Marshal of the Tiger Power Army who is in the prime of his life, but also his grandson.

There was a vague idea in Zhong Yi's mind that Zhou Cangyue was more like the descendants of the Zhou family than everyone else.

Intelligent, brave, optimistic and bright.

Once upon a time, my father also wanted to train him to be such a person. Once upon a time, he almost became such a person.

Unfortunately, it wasn't in the end.

If my father knew about it, he would definitely be disappointed with him.

Just like that person, so disappointed that he didn't want to see him.

Thinking of this, Zhong Yi suddenly had another idea. At first, the idea had only one outline, but gradually, it became clearer, so clear that he put down his work and began to think about the feasibility of this matter.

The next day, Zhong Yi brought his "work summary" to see He Ran. He Ran read his summary in front of him. He is worthy of being an emperor. His work summary is like a model essay. Even if I read too many memos in my previous life, I can even draw pictures.

He Ran asked the person he asked him to investigate and urged, "Save time on this matter, don't slack off."

Zhong Yi's heart moved, thinking of seeing Zhou Cangyue here yesterday, and then He Ran asked him to investigate someone. Could it be that this matter has something to do with Zhou Cangyue?

Thinking of this, the thought in Zhong Yi's heart arose again, and this time, it quickly spread to the entire heart.

"The boss has been in his double ten years, right?"

He Ran was stunned: "What? Commander Zhong also agrees with the collection of single taxes?"

He Ran opened up the road to speak wide. After she issued an order to exempt people from the Jiangnan area, Gao Lu, a famous scholar in Qiantang, proposed that from officials to the people, all women were over twenty years old and men were over twenty-five years old. Those who have not married must pay the tax on the tax every quarter until they are married.

Because of war and poverty, the number of deaths is far higher than the number of births, and it will definitely not work in the long run.

No one, who will open up the land, who will farm, and who will fight?

Gao Lu's proposal makes some sense, but the specific implementation is still to be discussed.

Therefore, Gao Lu's proposal caused discussions among the government and the public, and many people wrote letters to the evening newspaper to submit articles. For a moment, wars were raging in the evening newspaper, and some agreed and some opposed them. You finished singing and I was on the stage, even in the market This is also being discussed.

It is said that the matchmakers are all very busy. Many people listen to the wind and rain, thinking that they will be collecting single taxes soon, so they hurriedly married their children.

Recently, the government office received several cases caused by marriage. Even Xiaoli was walking on the street, and an aunt stopped her and asked if she had an engagement. If she had not been engaged, she happened to be a couple with her son and did not dislike her. He is from another place, regardless of whether she has a dowry or not.

Xiaoli came back to talk about this and everyone joked about her. He Ran just laughed today. Therefore, when Zhong Yi asked about her age, the first thing she thought of was single tax. However, He Ran soon thought of one thing, and Zhong Yi didn't get married either.

OK, okay, walk together on the way to pay taxes.

As soon as he said that, Zhong Yi felt a little embarrassed, and he seemed a little anxious.

However, since I have said it, I can't take it back, so I have to continue talking with my teeth.

"I heard that the boss and Zhou Cangyue met in Weishi?"

The process of He Ran and Zhou Cangyue's acquaintance has never been a secret.

After she became famous, her past was dug out. Of course, it was limited to her being the eldest daughter of the Zhending He family, plus He Jinghong's apprentice.

The fact that the He family's real and fake daughter has long become a topic of conversation on the streets and alleys. He Ran believes that when the world is peaceful, someone will definitely change his name and bring her story to the stage.

Speaking of real and fake daughters, it is certainly inevitable that the real daughter was rescued by a black girl from the Yellow River.

The people don’t know who the black girl who saved people was, but Zhong Yi must know.

No mistakes, one song, one content, one in 6, one book, one bar, one reading!

He Ran nodded: "Yes, I was not recognized by the He family at that time."

Zhong Yi glanced at He Ran quietly, and saw that her eyes were calm, without anger, and without impatience.

Zhong Yi took the opportunity and said, "The boss is at the age of talking about marriage. Have you ever considered Zhou Cangyue?"

He Ran's hand holding the teacup shook, and the tea splashed out. He Ran wiped and said with a smile: "Zhong Yi, you seem to be eight or nine years older than me. What you should worry about is your own marriage. I, I am still young, I don’t have to worry, I don’t have to worry.”

At worst, just pay taxes. When is it now? I have internal and external troubles, and I am still getting married, so I feel dizzy.

I can't continue talking this day.

Zhong Yi said embarrassedly: "Don't hurry up and take your time with your marriage."

He Ran glanced at him silently, and I saw that you were too idle. Sure enough, a mere summary report could not mobilize your enthusiasm for work, and I must find more things for you to do.

So when Zhong Yi walked out of Renyi Mansion, he brought a lot of errands.

However, the most important thing is to find out the Prince Zhou who once appeared in the Duke Dingguo Mansion.

Zhong Yi closed his eyes and thought hard, Mr. Zhou, Mr. Zhou.

If it were from Zhoujiabao, why would he be familiar with Mrs. Meng?

He still remembered that when He Jinghong fought against King Xiping, he was in the capital. If someone came to Zhoujiabao, even if he was bypassed, he would not be able to avoid those royal families, but why did he have no impression of it?

Although He Ran did not say it clearly, judging from her attention to this person, Zhong Yi was very suspicious. This person is related to Zhou Cangyue's life experience, and it is very likely that he is Zhou Cangyue's biological father.

Zhong Yi felt guilty about Zhou Ying. This guilt did not fade away by Zhou Ying's death, but became stronger.

If Zhou Cangyue had not achieved what he is now, Zhong Yi would probably take him to his side to raise him personally.

Since this person is related to Zhou Cangyue's life experience, he is always responsible.

Zhou Cangyue still lives in Wangjiang Small House, and he still has one more day.

He will leave tomorrow night.

Zhou Cangyue walked around the house, walking in circles.

Sister Su Si was dizzy when he turned his eyes and said helplessly: "If you want to see that boss, go find her and don't sway in front of me."

Zhou Cangyue stopped and looked at Sister Su Si: "There must be a reason. What reason should I find to see her?"

Sister Su was so embarrassed that this child was so smart when he was a child. He must have been hurt during the war and became stupid.

"I saw that she drank a jar of wine alone that day. This wine was brewed by myself and could not be bought outside. How many jars would you give her? First, let's meet her preferences, and second, let's have it. Is there a reason to see her?”

Zhou Cangyue's eyes blinked, with a clear stupidity: "Will this affect her reputation? If people see it, they won't think she is greedy, right?"

Sister Su Si.

Then, she waved at Zhou Cangyue lovingly: "Come on, let me see if it hurts my head. This pitiful thing is that everyone is foolish when fighting."

In the evening, Zhou Cangyue came to Renyi Mansion with several jars of wine. Unexpectedly, He Ran was not only working, but also a group of people were there.

Zhou Cangyue watched the people in the kitchen carrying a shoulder pole into the study room. He quietly asked the maid who came to deliver the meal: "How many people's meals are this?"

The old lady looked proud: "Twenty-five people!"

He Ran was having dinner with more than 20 people, and it was lively when he thought about it. He wanted to participate, so what should he do?

But he is Zhou Cangyue!

Although the two families are not hostile, he cannot run in and have dinner with them. What he knows is that he wants to join in the fun, and those who don’t know may suspect that he wants to spy on military affairs.

Zhou Cangyue put down the wine and left dejectedly.

It was not until late at night that He Ran finished what he had done.

Xiaoli showed her the wine, and only then did He Ran realize that Zhou Cangyue had been here.

"If he comes again next time, please let me know."

Xiaoli agreed, but said in her heart that Marshal Zhou may not be able to stay in Jinling for long. The "next time" you said may be a few years later.

Xiaoli still remembers that it has been several years since she met Zhou Cangyue last time and formed an alliance in Yu.

He Ran thought Zhou Cangyue would come again the next day. She knew Zhou Cangyue, who was a person who would not give up until she achieved her goal.

Since I haven't seen her today, I will definitely come back tomorrow.

Zhou Cangyue thought so himself. He must have gone at the wrong time and went there again tomorrow.

But when he returned to the Wangjiang Pavilion, he received an urgent letter from the White Dog. Wang Hao suddenly launched a sneak attack. A army under his command suffered heavy casualties and the commander was killed.

Zhou Cangyue greeted Wang Hao's eighteen generations of ancestors. He originally wanted to let Wang Hao live a few more days, but now it seems that he can't wait. Wang Hao came to die by himself, so he would be able to fulfill his wish!

At dawn, the city gate had just opened, and Zhou Cangyue rode his horse out of the city.

After walking for more than half a mile, Zhou Cangyue turned his horse's head and looked at the city gate tower not far away. He raised his arm and waved: "Sister Ran, I'm going to fight, there will be a date in the future!"

He wanted to make a few more land, and then he would come to ask Sister Ran to send the officials she trained there.

It's great, there's an excuse to come to see Sister Ran again. (End of this chapter)
