Chapter 259 The Xiangjiang River is turbulent (1)
On both sides of the Xiangjiang River, willows sway in the moist wind, and the clear river water reflects the beauty of the pavilions and pavilions. The traffic on both sides is very prosperous. This is the prosperous place of Chu State since ancient times. The dignitaries of the Warring States Period in the past often lingered here.
.
In the hometown of the Chu Kingdom, more than ten years have passed since the war between the Five Horses. The days of peace have long made the entire Changsha Mansion increasingly prosperous. The needs of dignitaries have made both sides of the Xiangjiang River once again a place of luxury.
The newly promoted commander Wang Dun, as the most trusted member of the army by the King of Chu, was already a little excited when he accepted the congratulations from several friends. He patted his chest and said: "Today, my brother will give you a taste of the good stuff!"
Several men immediately laughed teasingly, and one of them said: "How good is General Wang? We don't know yet?"
Commander Wang said: "It's different today. My brother paid for it and let the brothers taste the gentle taste of Zhang Henshui, the top brand of Xianyun Tower!"
"Okay, okay!" Everyone agreed. The group of people impromptuly rushed straight to Xianyun Tower by the Xiangjiang River, as if they were surrounded by newly married grooms. The scene was also lively, and passers-by looked at this rude and indifferent gesture.
The way he concealed himself immediately reminded me of the army.
When they first entered the front hall, several people were dressed in Futou robes, but the Madam recognized the newly promoted Commander Wang at a glance and stepped forward to greet him warmly with a smile.
The brother next to him joked: "Brother Wang is indeed a regular customer!"
Commander Wang smiled and said: "We pin our heads on our waists. The small head below is uncomfortable, and the big head above is unstable!"
He hurriedly asked the Madam: "Is Madam Zhang here?" The Madam was stunned: "You said you hate Madam Shui? Oh, what a coincidence. I had a bad stomach a while ago and was feeling weak. I felt unwell and was lying in bed very sick.
of……"
Commander Wang said: "Originally I wanted to ask her to pour some wine and sing some songs for fun. Since she is not feeling well, let's forget it!"
He turned around and said to everyone: "I'm really unlucky today. Next time I let you see the beauty of Lady Henshui, I'm afraid you won't be able to taste meat for three days!"
Commander Wang turned around and walked away with his brothers. Unexpectedly, at this moment, Commander Wang looked up and saw a graceful girl following a man out of the small door. Her waist was as thin as a willow, and she looked very familiar.
Commander Wang's expression suddenly changed, he pointed in front and said, "Isn't that Lady Hate Shui?"
The bustard looked ugly, "This, this..."
Commander Wang asked: "Who is that guy and what does he do?"
Seeing that the atmosphere was not right, the old bustard could only say in a low voice: "I don't know very well. I heard from Lady Henshui that she is a local official, her surname is Xiang, and she is very generous. She is willing to accompany him. After all, she came first..."
"Straight bitch! You old woman still wants to deceive me!" Sensing the strange looks from the brothers, Commander Wang felt that his dignity as a man had been humiliated, and his little head had also been humiliated, and he became furious.
"I have five hundred brothers who are among the best in the entire Changsha Prefecture. No one has ever humiliated me like this on the battlefield. If I hadn't been afraid that Lady Hate Shui would have nowhere to go and make me angry, I would have destroyed your whole building.
"It's a mess,"
Commander Wang greeted several brothers and said with his head held high, his words full of hatred, "Let's go! Let's go and have a look. Which master is so lucky that he let Lady Hateshui go out to serve him!"
"Ouch!" The Madam stamped her foot, twisted her handkerchief, and said in a tearful tone, "Something is going to happen, what should we do?"
Both of them are customers. If something bad happens, it will affect her business. In the past, this kind of jealousy could raise the price, but today it is particularly frightening.
The turtle man next to him was also anxious and said hurriedly: "I'll go and call the servant!"
The old bustard rolled his eyes at him and said: "What's the use? Do you dare to let the servants beat him? He is a warrior in the army or a personal guard of the King of Chu. A warrior is not afraid of anything. Who among us common people can afford to offend him? Hurry up.
Report to the officer! It would be bad if it caused someone's life!"
Commander Wang led a few men and pursued them aggressively, but the carriage of the two men seemed to have eyes, turning left and around again. They pursued them hard on horseback. After half an hour, the energy in their hearts was exhausted.
When I was clean, I discovered that I had arrived at a remote area outside Changsha Mansion, and there was a relatively secret courtyard.
The carriage was parked outside. A few people braved it and entered to take a look. There was actually a pond in the middle of the spacious yard.
There are lotus roots and fish in the pond. There is a beautiful boat floating in the water, and the singing voice of women with silk and bamboo orchestra floats on the water, creating a joyful scene.
Listening to the timbre, it should be the voice of Lady Hate Shui.
"Brother, looking at this, it seems that his official position is not small!" The younger brother on the side was trembling a little.
"Let's go and see who they are!" Looking at such extravagant situations, he lost his temper and started to boil again. He walked directly towards the boat and could only vaguely see the figures of a man and a woman.
The man opened his mouth and said: "Who are the heroes outside the boat? What do you want from us? We are hosting today, how about we come in and have a drink?"
The guy spoke politely and his tone was very calm. Commander Wang was still hard-pressed to get out of his anger. When he walked into the cabin, he saw that the beautiful woman was a little aggrieved and a little happy. He instantly summoned up courage in his heart.
And the man was also very pretentious and pretended to be elegant.
"Mrs. Hate Shui, please go down first!" the man said coldly.
"Nuo——" Zhang Henguo agreed decisively, walking with a rather military demeanor. Wang Dun was stunned for a moment. He instinctively felt that there was something strange in this.
"Since Mrs. Henshui is fine, I'm relieved. My mother at home is sick, so I'll go back first!"
"If what I said is true, the king's mother is offering incense in the temple right now, and your wife is also following her..."
The man poured himself a glass of wine, poured another glass with Wang Dun, and said with a smile.
"Who are you?" Wang Dun suddenly stood up, frowned, and said coldly.
Today he was promoted by the King of Chu (Zhou Xingfeng) to the rank of commander. He never thought that he would attract the attention of some people. Damn it, he was blinded by a woman.
When he was about to call for the brothers to come in, the man said: "Commander Wang, please don't act rashly. Your brothers are drinking with beautiful women in the company! They can't hear your voice!"
Snapped--
He sat down helplessly, glanced at the man, and said feebly: "What do you want me to do?"
"Don't worry, I'm not asking you to assassinate the King of Chu or do anything life-threatening. I just want you to get some news every day!"
"what news?"
"Of course it's the news about King Chu!" The man smiled broadly, but in Wang Dun's view, it was extremely sinister, "especially about his body!"
"As long as Commander Wang cooperates, Lady Henshui will be yours, as well as a silk shop and two grain shops in the city, which are worth more than a thousand dollars!"
