"Go home~~"

"Go home~~"

"Go home~~"

Murong Lian is worthy of being the owner of the Lan Banner. With just a few words, the originally decadent soldiers cheered excitedly.

For the hegemony of Murong's tribe, these soldiers of the Blue Banner endured the pain of homesickness, especially when facing such setbacks in front of them, their resentment was even more difficult to contain.

Murong Lian proposed to go east at the right time, which immediately reduced their resentment and avoided mutiny.

To temporarily stabilize the morale of the soldiers in the banner, Murong Lian and Murong De and his group immediately entered the main account and began to discuss preparing for the reclaim of the Pamir Mountain West Trail.

On the 27th day of the first lunar month of the 376th year of the Great Zhou Dynasty, Bai Qi, who was far away in the Pamir Mountains, received a message from Zhuge Zhi and led his army to return south.

In just over a month in Bai Qi's entrenchment in the Western Regions, the Pamirs were uninhabited thousands of miles away, and there were tombs everywhere.

According to later historian statistics, Bai Qi's trip to the Western Regions directly reduced the number of tribes in the Pamir Mountains by one third, and at least 600,000 people died tragically at Bai Qi's hands, causing countless economic losses.

Since then, Bai Qi's great reputation has been well-known throughout the Western Regions. All countries in the Western Regions are afraid of Bai Qi, and they can even stop children from crying at night...

On the fourth day of January in the year of the Great Zhou Dynasty, Bai Qi's army returned to Jinzhong Pass. On the seventh day of January, the Murong army withdrew as promised and began to return east. The battle of the northwest that lasted for half a year finally came to an end.

However, the external troubles were lifted, and the plan to acquire Liangzhou formulated by Gongyang Gao, Gongsun Yu, Zhuge Zhi and Bai Qi had just begun.

At present, as soon as Wei Min died, the entire Liangzhou was like a scattered sand and panic. Gong Yang Gao felt that this was an excellent opportunity to recover. As long as Liangzhou returned to the hands of the Central Plains dynasty, the split situation of the Central Plains that lasted for decades could be unified again.

However, at this time, Zhuge Zhi received the will of Liu Ce, far away in the capital of Shen, and ordered him to return to the capital of Shen quickly after completing the affairs of the northwest.

As Liu Ce ascended the throne and changed the dynasty, the time for the change of dynasty is getting closer and closer...

...

In the 377th year of the Great Zhou Dynasty, on the ninth day of the lunar month, Shendu...

"Come on, take a look, take a look, authentic candied fruits are sold at a cheap price, only 5 cents per pound..."

"Sauce cakes, freshly baked cakes, one for a cent, come and buy them..."

"Hongtai Restaurant is open, with all food and accommodation inside. From now until the end of the month, customers will be 40% off for purchases in the store..."

After nearly a year of rectification, Shendu's appearance has been completely renewed, and there are the sounds of vendors selling everywhere in the city's commercial streets, which has restored a lot of vitality to the originally dead city.

"Hurry up, the two ladies are going to the outside of the Shendu City, so you can't be careless..."

A four-wheeled carriage was moving forward quickly on the newly paved cement road, and Xu Wenjing's urging sounds kept coming from the carriage.

Several servants and guards next to them followed closely around the carriage and ran all the way.

Today is the day when Liu Ce's family arrives in Shendu. Since Liu Ce is busy dealing with the officials who failed the review of the Zhou Dynasty, he really can't get rid of himself to greet Jiang Ruoyan and Song Yanran. He can only let Xu Wenjing and a group of confidant officials go to greet him.

Before leaving, Liu Ce specifically instructed Xu Wenjing to act in a low-key manner and never to make extravagant and disturb the people. Xu Wenjing did what she told her, but she specially mobilized the four departments of the Right Guard of the Imperial City, with a total of 1,000 guards as security teams.

"Selling characters, selling characters, does anyone need calligraphy and painting..."

When Xu Wenjing passed by the corner of Xishi, a hawking sound attracted his attention. He opened the curtain and looked out with a bright glass window. He immediately found an "acquaintance", Zhou Jin.

Zhou Jin seemed even more depressed than in prison at this moment. In order to maintain his livelihood and take care of the children left by Qiao Yixuan, he had to lower his arrogant head. After he recovered from the injury, he set up a stall in the western city of the city and made a living by selling his name.

When Xu Wenjing saw Zhou Jin's clothes were worn and his face was covered with stubble. When she was writing for a woman and a child, she couldn't help but sneer. When she looked at the pair of children beside him, her face suddenly became gloomy.

"Stop!"

After Xu Wenjing gave the order, the coachman immediately stopped the horse and turned around and asked, "Mr. Xu, what are the instructions?"

"get off……"

The side car door was removed, Xu Wenjing walked out of the car slowly, looked up at the air, felt the remaining chill in the early spring, and couldn't help but shrink her neck, walked straight to the stall set up by Zhou Jin, looking at him without saying a word.

"I've written it, please keep it..."

Zhou Jin didn't realize Xu Wenjing was coming and handed over the written letter to the women and children opposite him.

The woman and child took the letter, glanced at it a few times, and asked, "You really wrote down what I said word by word? Why did you only thank a piece of paper after I said so much? Isn't it a lie and bullying me illiterate?"

Zhou Jin nodded and bowed and said, "Mrs. I have recorded all your words on it. I just wrote some of them briefly, but they actually mean the same as what you said..."

"Hmph, really, isn't it just to save a few pieces of paper money?" After making things difficult for a few words, the women and children looked at the letter carefully, "Forget it, you're writing this very well, how much does it cost?"

Zhou Jin said: "A total of forty cents..."

"What? Forty words?" The women and children were shocked when they heard this, "You want me to have forty words just a few words?"

Zhou Jin hurriedly explained: "Madam, don't be excited. What I use is the regular script of the Wang family in Jiangnan, he is..."

The women and children did not give him any chance to explain, and immediately interrupted him: "Don't tell me what the Zhang family is from the Wang family, I don't know the old woman, nor do I want to know!

On weekdays, I ask someone to write a few words on my private school teacher, and I only charge ten cents for several pictures. You just need for forty cents at once? Aren’t you cheating people?

Do you know how much you can buy forty commerce now? I really didn't expect that you look gentle, but you are also a profiteer who fell into the eyes of money.

Bah, I won’t do your business anymore, you should find a sucker!”

After saying that, the woman and the children threw the letter paper, picked up the basket on the table, and left Zhou Jin's stall with an angry look on their faces.

Zhou Jin was about to make a sound to stop him, but he had no choice but to reach into the air and hang down weakly. He picked up the piece of letter paper left on the ground, and waved the dust on it with his sleeves.

Some people are not born suitable to be businessmen, especially those of Zhou Jin, who have strong self-esteem.

"Dad, I'm hungry..."

At this time, a pair of children gently pulled Zhou Jin's sleeves and said childishly.

Zhou Jin's eyes were wet, and he hugged the two children and said, "Dad is useless. Let you suffer with me. Wait for a while. When Dad does his first business today, he will buy you sesame cakes for you, ah..."

But his daughter said, "Dad, I miss you, why don't you go find me?"

Upon hearing this, Zhou Jin said angrily: "I have said it so many times, so I am not allowed to mention your mother! Your mother is an unfaithful slut, and she is not worthy of being your mother!"

After Zhou Jin yelled, his daughter's nose twitched, golden beans fell from her eyes, and she cried sadly, and even her son kept sobbing.

Zhou Jin was about to continue getting angry, but Xu Wenjing, who had been watching coldly, sat in front of the stall.

Seeing that business came to the door, Zhou Jin immediately let go of his hand holding his children, got up and came to Xu Wenjing, bowed and said, "This guest, do you want calligraphy and painting?"

Xu Wenjing stroked the white jade ring that was stuck on the thumb of her left hand seriously, stared at Zhou Jin coldly for a while, and let out a slight snorting at the corner of her mouth, then asked, "What painting do you have here?"

Zhou Jin hurriedly said, "Then I dare to ask the guests what calligraphy and paintings they like? Is it landscape paintings or Minfang paintings?"

"Can you draw the erotic palace picture?" Xu Wenjing took out a silver dollar from her sleeve, pressed it on the table, and said with a sneer, "As long as you can draw it to satisfy me, this silver dollar is yours."

Upon hearing this, Zhou Jin breathed rapidly: "Don't joke, please be taught by the saint for a long time, how can you draw such an incredible thing? You should ask for a clever one!"

"Bold!" An attendant next to him immediately stepped forward and said viciously to Zhou Jin: "You dare to disrespect us lord!"

Xu Wenjing raised her hand to stop the attendant, shook her head at Zhou Jin with a smile on her face and said, "Zhou Jin, Zhou Jin, you have fallen to this level, and you are still considering yourself noble,

I can't understand why Qiao Yixuan is so useless with you. He has been with you for so many years. Have you ever brought her a life of being a superior person?"

"You... are you Xu Wenjing?" Zhou Jin immediately realized that the person in front of him was Xu Wenjing who was separated from his husband and wife.

Xu Wenjing stood up and said, "Zhou Jin, I really can't understand why you still have the face to stay in this capital? Look at your virtue? Look at your appearance, what's the difference between you and beggars begging for food along the street?

If you still have some face, then leave the capital quickly. The further you go, the better, so as not to be embarrassed here again..."

Zhou Jin's cheeks kept twitching slightly. Hearing the harsh words coming from his ears, his fists were tightly pinching.

Finally, he gritted his teeth and said, "Since Lord Xu said that, I should obey my orders and pack up my things and leave the capital tomorrow..."

Xu Wenjing snorted lightly, looked at the two children in his arms, and said, "Zhou Jin, it is difficult for you to support yourself now. These two children will only suffer with you. Let his mother take care of it. If you grow up like you in the future, you will only sell words on the street and make a living!"

"No!" Zhou Jin heard this, hugged his children tightly, and said to Xu Wenjing in a terrifying manner: "They are all flesh and blood in my Zhou family. How can you follow Qiao Yixuan, a slut, to be poked on the back of someone for the rest of your life?"

"Do you dare to call Xuan'er a slut?" Xu Wenjing suddenly became serious, "Zhou Jin, you'd better put your mouth clean. Since you want your children to stay by your side, I, Xu Wenjing, don't force me, but you don't think it's so easy to leave the capital. I want you to live a life rather than die!"
