In addition to Cheng Pu taking the lead in rushing to the battlefield, according to Ji Ling, there will be troop movements to and from Yangzhou and Yuzhou in recent days. Some veteran militiamen will be dispatched to various cities, and then the elite will be transferred back to Jiangdong to prepare to participate in the attack on Xuzhou. war.

This is to accomplish all the results in one battle.

Wang Zheng nodded, looked at Gu Jian and said: "This is preparation before the war. Don't be surprised. Our heavenly army must practice diligently in the past few days. Even if we don't go into battle immediately, we must not relax."

Gu Jian respectfully promised to go to the Heavenly Army camp again. Wang Zheng thought for a while and added: "You will stay in the barracks these days. Don't leave the camp unless there is anything important. We will arrange for personal soldiers to report general matters. If there is anything urgent again, go to my house and wait."

After discussing some preparation matters with Ji Ling and others, and looking through some files, Wang Zheng was about to return to his residence. When Ji Ling saw this, he threw the sketch of the map aside and quickly called him, saying: "General Wang is young. You are promising, brave and good at fighting. It can be said that you are good at everything. No wonder Zhou Mu also commented that you know soldiers and are good at fighting, and you are both wise and brave. It is just a fly in the ointment. I have an opinion. I don’t know if I want to hear it or not?"

The tone seemed to be critical, but looking at Ji Ling's smiling face, it was clearly meant as a joke. Wang Zheng shrugged helplessly and said:

"Brother Ji, if you have any advice, it's okay to say it. The government is all ears."

"General, you know." Ji Ling and the people around him looked at each other and said, "In the days since you came to Shouchun, most of the public comments are four-character words."

"Oh," Wang Zheng asked: "Which four characters?"

"Rely on your talents and be proud of yourself!"

"Where does this begin?"

Wang Zheng raised his eyebrows. After all, Yangzhou was not his own territory. Speaking of his behavior, he was very restrained, but he was not as overbearing as he was at home, so he was considered humble and polite.

How did it get such a rating?

"I heard that in the past few days, I don't know how many people admire the general's reputation. They invite you to banquets every day, but you push them away." Ji Ling teased, "I know you are busy with things. Plus...hey, he is young and vigorous, Zhou Mu has given her a beautiful woman, so he is naturally greedy for the gentle countryside and plays songs every night, but it is not good to be so inhumane."

Wang Zheng didn't expect that this was what he was talking about, and he felt helpless for a moment.

After all, he was a guest in Yangzhou, and his identity was just an ally. However, these civil and military officials were all Yuan Shu's subordinates. The reason why he did not want to attend the banquet was naturally because he did not want to arouse Yuan Shu's suspicion.

It's just that these reasons can only be understood and cannot be explained in words. After staying for a while, he reluctantly explained: "Brother Fuyi said something serious, I..."

"It's okay if you don't go to other people's banquets..." Ji Ling said with a smile: "Now that you are the coach of Guangling Road, all my brothers will serve you in the future, so you can't break our hearts."

"We have already made an appointment. Today, when you take office for the first time, a banquet has been held at the Hongxiu Tower. I specially invite the general to attend the banquet."

"I wonder if you have heard about the general coming to Shouchun these days." Before Wang Zheng could refuse, Ji Ling blinked ambiguously and said: "The leader of the Hongxiu Tower is Gui Yan, who is now the most popular courtesan in Yangzhou. "

Do you think I came to Yangzhou to pick up girls?

"Brother Fuyi has good intentions." Wang Zheng couldn't laugh or cry: "It's just that the war is imminent, and there are so many threads to sort out, and it's really hard to get away. Let's do this, after we capture Guangling and return victorious, we can indulge ourselves as much as we want. Ichiban, how about when the time comes for the government to do something about it?"

"Besides, Fu Yi, you didn't just suggest to Yuan Zhoumu a few days ago that officials should be prohibited from entering sex-buying places without permission, why now..."

"Since Yang Hong said it's okay and the lord agreed, why should I restrain myself?" Ji Ling rolled his eyes and said, "General Wang, why do you have to shirk it again and again? I have already informed the lord of the banquet tonight, so there is no need to worry!" "

Wang Zheng's heart moved and he glanced sideways at Ji Ling.

I didn't notice that this man looked rough on the outside, but he was a careful person.

Since the other party was thoughtful and cleared his own suspicions, Wang Zheng felt uncomfortable refusing, so he had no choice but to nod in agreement.

Soon after, everyone left the state capital with their own soldiers.

It was already the time when the lanterns were first lit, but the streets were bustling with pedestrians. After all, in terms of prosperity, Shouchun was naturally far better than Langya, Pengcheng and other places.

Especially Zhangtai Street, where there are many brothels and pubs in the city, is called a street, but is actually a business district formed by several intertwined alleys. Wang Zheng looked around, but saw that the flow of people was actually much higher than when he went out earlier.

While thinking about it, under the guidance of Ji Ling, he unknowingly arrived at the outer wall of a brightly lit high-rise building.

There were figures in the carriage hidden inside, and the sounds of men and women laughing could be heard.

Wang Zheng looked up and saw that it was two or three stories high, with bright red lanterns hanging on each floor. In the night, the whole building was glowing red. Several rooms upstairs had their windows open, and the figures of singers and dancers could be vaguely seen. .

"This is Hongxiulou, the largest private brothel in Shouchun City."

With a mocking smile, Ji Ling glanced at Wang Zheng: "General, what do you think?"

"Since it's time to look for flowers, it's time to talk about drinking, romance, and sorrow." Wang Zheng said calmly: "There are only distinctions between host and guest, so why bother talking about official positions and let this spring scene be tainted with official atmosphere?"

"Brother Fuyi and all the brothers are older than me, just call the imperial guards." He glanced at the door couplets on both sides of the building and said with a smile: "Cut into an acacia quilt and wear it with Sauvignon Blanc..."

"What a wonderful speech. This alone has made the political science students look forward to it."

Although Ji Ling rarely sets foot in such places, he, as a county lieutenant, can be regarded as the head of security and defense in Spring City. He may not recognize these low-level people, but others dare not forget his appearance.

I saw the expressions of the evil men guarding the door suddenly changed at one glance, and then they immediately ran forward with bows and bows, welcoming them in with smiles on their faces.

.....

Wenwen Township is the Tomb of Heroes. Not long after Wang Zhenggang set foot there, he felt the taste of it deeply.

The most attractive thing about wild flowers is that they are ready to eat, especially in private brothels. Compared with official brothels, they are very different. They are full of a transaction atmosphere where you are willing to buy and sell openly.

Although he was an otaku in his previous life, he had never been to entertainment venues such as bars due to work reasons. However, this was the first time he visited such a brothel since time travel, and he couldn't help but feel fresh.

While he was savoring the feeling, Ji Ling laughed loudly, glanced around, suddenly raised his voice, and shouted:

"The distinguished guest has arrived, where is the master?"

The hall fell silent immediately, and countless eyes turned to him after the election.

Wang Zheng looked around and saw that although these people were also wearing casual clothes, he could still tell at a glance that most of them were members of the military, and he couldn't help but secretly curled his lips.

Yuan Shu's military management was indeed not rigorous.

Soldiers also have desires and needs to be satisfied, but they are still so relaxed just before the war, and the decadence of military discipline is evident...

As for combat power... I'm afraid it's not much better.

Since he is a member of the military, he has a strong character and domineering behavior. The other guests' original intention was to see who was so reckless and wanted to teach him a lesson. However, when they recognized that the leader was Ji Ling, they immediately either lowered their heads or said something.

Turn around and pretend to be ignorant.

There is no way, Ji Ling can become Shouchun County Lieutenant, Ji Ling's status in Yuan Shu's army can be imagined. At this time, in Shouchun City, except for Yuan Shu, Yan Xiang, Zhao Xun and other few people, there are really not many people in Shouchun City.

A person with greater authority and higher status than others.

"General Ji is here?"

At this time, a richly dressed middle-aged man, accompanied by two very charming and gorgeously dressed young beauties, jogged up to us and saluted, "You are really a rare visitor."

"Han Fu, you old turtle." Glancing at the man, Ji Ling sneered and cursed, "What's the point? You have to call me personally, Master Ji!"

"General, you don't know something." Seeing Ji Ling's change of expression, the man bowed his head to the end and hurriedly explained: "In the past few days, countless people have come to the city, and even the building has become more and more busy, and there are always noble people showing off.

The villain doesn't dare to neglect, he always makes every effort to visit every family, for fear of being rude. He is so busy that he slaps his feet on the back of his head."

As he said that, he smiled apologetically at the people behind Ji Ling, until he was startled when he saw Wang Zheng.

who is this?

Gupa

He searched for memories in his mind for a long time, but he still couldn't see what official position or origin he had. It took him a while before he smiled and said: "I have poor eyesight, this..."

"This is Wang Zheng, the governor of Xuzhou." Ji Ling knew that he was confused and explained directly.

"It turns out it's the Governor Wang." Wu Fu hurriedly bowed again and said, "This distinguished guest is here. I am honored by this little man Wu Fu."

Wang Zheng nodded with a smile, and the pretty girl on the right suddenly brightened up and said with a smile: "My concubine Lin'er, if we had known that the governor was coming, we would have had to dress up in a special way to win the favor of the nobleman."

"Ouch." Ji Ling glanced at her and snorted coldly: "Does that mean no one will pay attention to me when I come here?"

"General Ji is really good at joking." Another beautiful woman immediately gave him a wink and said in a sweet voice: "You come here only once a year. I have long wanted to accompany you, okay?" She glanced at Wang Zhengdao again.

: "My concubine Lei'er, please give me your advice, Governor Wang."

Ji Ling curled his lips, looked at Wu Fu and asked, "Is everyone here?"

"I have been here a long time ago. I have arranged for you to stay in the inner attic according to the general's instructions." Wu Fu ordered the people around him: "You two should go with all the nobles."

...

Under the guidance of the beautiful maid, Wang Zheng and his party passed through a long corridor and entered a courtyard. The music and people in the front yard gradually became inaudible. Although under the lights, many flowers and arrangements could still be seen in the courtyard.

There are various bonsais, which are elegant, quiet and thoughtful. There is a fish pond and rockery mountain in the center of the courtyard, with green grass, insects and cicadas singing, making it difficult for people to associate it with a fireworks place.

The two beautiful maids leading the way were whispering to each other from time to time, talking in low voices and smiling coquettishly. They often turned around and smiled coquettishly, trying their best to tease everyone.

Wang Zheng is naturally the focus of attention.

Although his appearance is ordinary, he is young and has a strong body. The charm given by the system makes him look quite majestic, and his appearance is not bad, especially when there are rough-looking military attachés like Ji Ling nearby.

It makes him look quite handsome.

In addition, there is also a provincial governor, who is already a very important person to ordinary people. Power, wealth and power are the most attractive things. A woman who comes out to show off her laughter will naturally be able to have a relationship with him.

Be proud of.

Since the incident, many people around him have been in awe. It is rare for Wang Zheng to experience this kind of "public opinion" that is flattering and obedient, and he can't help but sigh secretly.

No wonder it is said that "everything is inferior, only reading is superior".

In the peaceful and prosperous times, this was the only way for most people to become officials, but once they were freed from grassroots and raised their social status, all the glory they would get was really very beautiful.

Turning around the stone mountain, a two-story independent courtyard appeared in front of us. Dozens of guards were guarding the entrance, and it was unknown who was accompanying them. Although they were only allowed to stand outside the door, they were not lonely. They were with a group of beautiful maids.

Flirting and flirting are so lively.

Until Wang Zheng and others arrived, especially when they saw Ji Ling, they immediately became quiet and immediately moved out of the way.

"The Hongxiu Building is the first floor on Zhangtai Street." Knowing that Wang Zheng was here for the first time, Ji Ling explained while leading the way: "There are outer buildings and cabinets. Of course, the outer buildings are for anyone with money, but this cabinet is only for those with money.
To be continued...
