A Thousand Hills

Chapter 276

Jiang Xingyun did an earth-shattering event, but she was not born at the right time, otherwise, if she had been born before the Grand Historian, Jiang Xingyun would probably have a place in the assassin's biographies.

After all, what she killed was a big shot, and she had a good idea of ​​killing someone, pretending to be a mermaid.

Yes, sharks.

Goldfish essence or something, it's too vulgar, at least it's a fish god empress.

Even if some knowledgeable and smart people think it was an assassination, you must know that folks prefer myths and legends.Therefore, the claim that General Zhao was recruited by the Fish God Empress as her son-in-law went away.

If it wasn't for the flames of war in Zhejiang, it might be that nearby villagers would have built a temple of the Fish Goddess by the lake to keep them safe.

Jiang Xingyun didn't know that he became a fish god and led a Jiangnan fashion. After the legend of the fish god appeared in Zhejiang, there was a wind of worshiping the fish god in Jiangnan. What's more, I don't know who promoted it. Where there is puddles, the fish god will appear here today, and the fish god will appear there tomorrow. Originally, this is where foolish women and fools go to worship, but King Jingjiang's secret agency wants to follow the vine to find out that General Zhao is dead. In the hands of whom, they were often deceived by these gossips.

Jiang Xingyun personally assassinated Zhao Yang. Although it was a great achievement, the fifth prince did not intend to make it public.The fifth prince is not stupid, and he has made great contributions to the sky, but he can't push Jiang Xingyun to the forefront at this time.

However, the Fifth Prince Fang has encountered many assassinations recently, which is normal. If Jiang Xingyun can kill people, others will also come to kill them.

No matter how inevitable casualties are, the war continues.

Jiang Xingyun is naturally very busy, but there are some people that he has to see, such as Ning Zhiyuan.Ning Zhiyuan still had that gentle and elegant appearance, but this time it was different from the past. When he saw Jiang Xingyun, he bowed his hands, and Jiang Xingyun did not avoid his courtesy, and smiled, "Zhiyuan, you are more polite." Take one.

Ning Zhiyuan smiled and said, "This is a courtesy to see the Fish God Empress."

Jiang Xingyun smiled slightly, and did not admit that he killed Zhao Yang, but said, "Why, Jingjiang said that the court killed him again?" He raised his hand to ask Ning Zhiyuan to sit down, and the maid took the tea and stepped back lightly , Jiang Xingyun continued, "This King Jingjiang is also funny. His son died, and he was said to be killed by the court. Now that the general is dead, he is also said to be killed by the court. It seems that Jingjiang's luck is not very good, and the court just happened to restrain him."

Ning Zhiyuan sipped his tea and laughed, "I don't know much about luck, it's just that you, Mr. Jiang, are in the south of the Yangtze River for a day. How many rich and powerful families in the south of the Yangtze River dare not burn incense, dare not go fishing, what's more, go out and talk to each other. I dare not drink the tea outside. Mr. Qiu in Jingjiang is the funniest now. It is said that Mr. Qiu is serving outside instead of maids when he is resting, and has changed to guards. Just like this, he is afraid that his head will fly away." Jiang Xingyun's hands are poisonous. Yes, even though the Qiu family is a big family, there are also a lot of people with official positions. I don't know how Mu San offended Jiang Xingyun. Jiang Xingyun really targeted the members of the Mu family. The Qiu family was the one that suffered the most.Moreover, Jiang Xingyun is definitely a rare genius in the way of killing people. Not only is her technique changeable, but even Ning Zhi Yuanfang can't figure out the law of her killing.Let's say she started killing an official of the junior rank, and she killed Zhao Yang suddenly.Let's say she killed big shots, but she suddenly attacked some low-level officials of the fifth and sixth ranks.The death of a big man like Zhao Yang shocked the world, but the death of a small man made people feel numb.

In particular, the investigation of the death of a big shot has many clues. After all, the big shot's entourage, attendants and so on, usually stay with them.The configuration of small people is not as good as that of big people, and it is easy to die, and it is difficult to check.

Moreover, you can change to another faction to kill. You always stare at the Mu three factions, making Mu three want to commit suicide.

Jiang Xingyun refused to admit that there was any assassination, but she did not continue to deny it, Jiang Xingyun said, "Why, Zhiyuan came to intercede for the Qiu family?"

Ning Zhiyuan waved his hands again and again, "Master Jiang, don't misunderstand, we have won the court's bet, and I just want to show my respect for Master Jiang. If you leave, who shall I ask?"

"Zhiyuan, don't scare me." Jiang Xingyun has already guessed why Ning Zhiyuan came here. Jiang Xingyun is very useful for the word "begging". I think that when Jingjiang's rebellion in Fujian was weak, she often shut the door in front of Ning Zhiyuan. .However, Jiang Xingyun was still extremely graceful, and said, "How can you use a word of begging between you and me? Zhiyuan, you are out of touch."

Ning Zhiyuan immediately told Jiang Xingyun about the future. It was probably that they had some properties in Zhejiang. When Liu Fufeng came, they robbed them of all kinds... Ning Zhiyuan said, "This is really a flood that washed away the Dragon King Temple. , the family no longer recognizes the family."

Jiang Xingyun didn't answer Ning Zhiyuan's words, she wanted to listen to Ning Zhiyuan's request, Ning Zhiyuan was thick-skinned enough, and said, "Master Jiang, we have already signed the letter of credence, the imperial court has to guarantee our property in Jiangnan. "

Only then did Jiang Xingyun sigh, "When I signed the letter of credence, I asked you, Zhiyuan, what industries do you have in Jiangnan, and asked you to give me a list, but you didn't give it to me. Besides, the war thing Son, Zhiyuan, you know better than I do that when thousands of troops march into the city, some bumps and bumps are inevitable.” Jiang Xingyun changed his posture and looked at Ning Zhiyuan sincerely. You are serious, Zhiyuan, are your people not hurt?"

Seeing that Jiang Xingyun pushed [-], but blocked him and couldn't refute him, Ning Zhiyuan was depressed, didn't he expect that Jiang Xingyun would suddenly kill Zhao Yang, and Liu Fufeng would go to Zhejiang.If he knew that Liu Fufeng could reach Zhejiang, Ning Zhiyuan would have to pack up and transfer a batch of property money in advance.This is so good that the Dongmu court copied most of it.Ning Zhiyuan laughed along, "They are lucky, this is also a waste of money to eliminate disasters."

Jiang Xingyun raised his eyebrows, "Don't! What do you mean by destroying money and eliminating disasters? I'm not such a person. Although Zhiyuan you were sluggishly guarding against me before, and now you're sarcastically mocking me, as long as Zhiyuan you present the list of those industries Give it to me, and I will recover these belongings for you, how about it?"

"Master Jiang, don't discourage me. If you want to talk about defense, you and I both have it. But if you want to talk about sarcasm, there is no such thing. Admiration is true." Ning Zhiyuan also looked sincere, and said, " Just like Mr. Jiang said, I also know a little about military affairs. Since those things are taken away by the military, it is not easy to ask for them. Our two countries are allies, so let’s take it as our country’s wishes. Let me bother Jiang My lord, I would like to ask Mr. Jiang to raise his hand a little bit, there are a few ships of mine at the pier." Liu Fufeng plundered the land of Zhejiang, and it was a blow to the wealthy gentry, and Ning Zhiyuan also lost a lot, but those things Now that it has entered Liu Fufeng's hands, it may not be easy to ask for it.What Ning Zhiyuan valued more was a batch of goods at the dock.

Jiang Xingyun thought for a while and said, "Lord Ning, give me the list."

Ning Zhiyuan was obviously ready, he took out a document from his sleeve and handed it to Jiang Xingyun, saying, "Master Jiang is here."

Jiang Xingyun opened the document, took a look at it, closed it casually, flicked his finger on the document, and said, "This won't work? Zhiyuan, there are too many goods detained at the wharf in Zhejiang. You can't point to which ship or ship and say it's yours." Well, tomorrow, what if someone comes to tell me that it belongs to his family? You have to have the proof, including the list of supplies on board, and give it to me." Ning Zhiyuan was in a dilemma when he heard this, but Jiang Xingyun seemed to have never heard of it, and continued Said, "Also, let me tell you what I said earlier, as long as military supplies such as medicines, weapons, food and grass are not allowed to go to sea."

Ning Zhiyuan's face changed immediately, and he said, "Xingyun, there is a clause in the national certificate, you want to protect our country's industries in Jiangnan?"

"Yes. But we have discussed the terms of trade between the two countries in Fujian, haven't we? The trade between Fujian and overseas, and military supplies are not included in the trade category." Jiang Xingyun said, "Don't worry, I won't make it difficult for you. Zhiyuan, calculate how many military supplies you have on board, and I will not let you suffer. Take out the account book, and I will pay the original price for how much you received. In the future, the sea trade in Zhejiang will be in accordance with the law in Fujian, isn't it? it is good?"

The thing was in Jiang Xingyun's hands, but Jiang Xingyun refused to let it go, Ning Zhiyuan really couldn't do anything for a while, and said, "The principles of the law are nothing more than human feelings, Xingyun, if you give me face, is it possible that my face is not worth these few cargoes?"

Jiang Xingyun looked at Ning Zhiyuan with anger and a smile, "Of course I want to give Master Ning face, but I can't do it right now. One thing is to fight for armaments. When it's critical, I have to requisition first. Second, how many people are out there now?" Keeping an eye on those cargo ships at the port, once this rule is opened, I won’t be able to explain it to the outside world. Let’s leave it for now, and let’s talk about it when it’s cheaper in the future, how about it?”

Ning Zhiyuan laughed and was angry, "cooperate with me for nothing?"

Jiang Xingyun raised his eyebrows, "Do you think you can ask me to accompany you to talk for half a day now that you are a human?"

"Honor, honor, Empress Fish God." Ning Zhiyuan and Jiang Xingyun said, "I didn't say that General Liu plundered Zhejiang land too ruthlessly. be affected."

Jiang Xingyun said, "Zhejiang has been operating for Jingjiang for a long time, and it hurts the vitality, not the vitality of the people."

Ning Zhiyuan is a measured person, so he didn't say much after hearing this.

Ning Zhiyuan turned his head and said to Duan Sihai, "Don't reveal any flaws, I think it will be difficult for Jingjiang in the future."

Duan Sihai said, "No hurry, wait and see."

Wait until autumn.

The entire autumn was full of wars, perhaps because of the abundance of food and grass, everyone was scrambling for land. The fifth prince didn't even hold the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet on August [-]th, so the civil and military officials distributed a box of mooncakes.There is a lot of water in Zhejiang Province, so the Fifth Prince asked someone to fish some crabs, tasted them, and felt that the crab meat was not firm enough, the crab roe was not fragrant, and the season was still not good enough.

This year's crabs are not very good, not because they are not in season, but they are also smaller than in previous years.

Even the war news seems to be somewhat unsatisfactory.

Liu Fufeng has nothing to do here, he has firmly established his roots in Zhejiang, and confronted Feng Feiyu across the river.The development of the rebel army that first ran to Anhui was somewhat unsatisfactory. The rebel army first ran to Anhui with hoes and knives. As a result, Anhui was stationed by Feng Feiyu later. These half-mobs were no match for Feng Feiyu. , had to go to Huguang, Huguang has a large area of ​​plains, a place with abundant food and grass, and the momentum of development in Huguang is not bad. As a result, the leader of the rebel army that the five princes worked so hard to install was killed by Lin Fan, and most of the rebel army was also incorporated by Lin Fan , and the rest fled without knowing where to go.Seeing this information, the fifth prince also had to sigh, "You can't lose money by stealing chickens!"

Even Jiang Xingyun also received a not-so-good Mid-Autumn Festival gift. In Jiang Xingyun's slightly cocooned palm was a piece of suet white jade the size of a sparrow egg with a little rouge in the middle. Slowly curling up his fingers, holding the jade for a moment, put it back into the box, and locked it up.

Ji Shiwei has been by Jiang Xingyun's side for a long time, watching her grow up, he couldn't help saying at this time, "Ah Yun, don't you want to check?"

"This pair of rouge jade is a family heirloom of my family. I have one piece. It is said that when brother lost, he carried the other piece of rouge jade with him." Then he disappeared without a trace, and Jiang Xingyun was indifferent, "If anyone has news about my brother, he should come and tell me instead of sending some token first. Since we sent the token, we know that we are not the ones who are in a hurry, and Uncle Ji is not in a hurry. Now, What matters is not brother's whereabouts...but Jiangnan's success or failure."
