"Brother Zihou, why didn't you send these bandits to the government? Why did you take them to Quanzhou?" Pinlan asked Wang Qier curiously on the carriage.

Originally, Pinlan was going to sit in a car with Shulan, the old lady, and Minglan. However, Pinlan was too curious about Wang Qier, so she had to take Wang Qier in the same car.

Wang Qian'er was holding a piece of silk cloth in her hand, and next to it was the box containing the point steel gun that she had just pulled out from under the seat. At this time, the box was open, and Wang Qian'er was wiping it with a cold light.

gun head.

"Third Uncle said that Quanzhou is in short supply of people now. These bandits, really speaking, should have been ordinary people. Maybe some were voluntary, but most of them should have been seduced and coerced by thieves, and then they became bandits.

"

"If you can't survive, who would be willing to put your head in the waistband and live a precarious life without a meal?"

Wang Qian'er's family was poor when she was a child, and she relied on her mother, Wang Li, to wash and mend clothes. Although it didn't last long, Wang Zhong took up the burden of the family within a few years, allowing Wang Qian'er and her mother to live in food and clothing.

Although she lived a life of worry-free prosperity, Wang Qian'er has never forgotten her childhood experiences. If it were before, Wang Qian'er might not be able to say such words, but as she gets older, she reads more and more pages.

, knowing more and more truths, when talking about these bandits, it is inevitable to have some feelings.

Pinlan has been well-fed and well-fed since she was a child, so naturally she cannot experience the feelings Wang Qianer said.

"Is there a shortage of people in Quanzhou?" Pinlan asked curiously.

Wang Qian'er still carefully wiped the gun tip in her hand, and replied in a calm tone: "There must be a shortage of people, otherwise why would the third uncle spend so much effort to persuade these bandits to go to Quanzhou."

If we send people directly to the local county government, what awaits these bandits may be exile, assassination, or other punishments. It is better to drag these people to Quanzhou. Anyway, all walks of life in Quanzhou have already entered.

The stage of rapid development is exactly when there is a shortage of people.

Pinlan did not dwell on this topic, but her eyes lit up. She remembered Wang Qianer's brave and heroic posture just now following Wang Zhong, shooting like a dragon. She couldn't help but give a thumbs up and said: "You were too powerful just now, better than me."

My second brother is not bad at all, my second brother has been practicing martial arts for more than ten years!"

Wang Qier said calmly: "I have been practicing martial arts for almost ten years!"

"Ten years?" Pinlan looked at Sister Qian in disbelief: "How old are you?"

"I have been practicing boxing and kicking with my third uncle since I was five years old." Wang Qier said calmly.

"Tell me about your third uncle!" After Pinlan paused for a moment, the topic suddenly changed.

"My third uncle?" Wang Qier finally turned around and moved her gaze from the gun tip to Pinlan. After looking at Pinlan up and down, she said, "Are you going to be my third uncle's concubine?

"

In Wang Qian'er's opinion, although Pinlan's appearance is not as good as Minglan's, she is still pretty, and can be said to be of average appearance. Her body looks good, and she has a cheerful temperament. If she can be a concubine for her third uncle,

If so, she would definitely have no objection.

Pinlan was stunned by Wang Qier's question. A blush quickly appeared on her pretty face, and she hurriedly explained: "Bah, bah, bah! Who wants to be a concubine? I am a direct daughter of the Sheng family, how can I be done by someone else?"

concubine!"

When she heard that she was not a concubine for her third uncle, Wang Qier immediately lost interest and said casually, "Then why do you care so much about my third uncle?"

Pinlan has a cheerful personality, and her shyness only lasts for a moment, and she has no thoughts about Wang Zhong. The blush just now is just the instinct of being in a girl's family. After all, she is still a young girl who has not left the court.

Regarding Wang Qian'er's question, Pinlan did not hide it, but said directly: "I'm just curious. People in the world say that a woman's lack of talent is a virtue. How come your third uncle is different from others and still teaches you?"

A little girl studying and practicing martial arts?"

"Because Third Uncle has no choice!" Wang Qier paused while wiping the gun. After a moment of silence, she said, "Third Uncle also said that women may not be inferior to men."

"Really?" Pinlan was obviously interested, "Is your third uncle really saying that?"

Wang Qier nodded and said: "My third uncle often says this when he comforts me!"

"Uh..." Pinlan didn't know how to answer the question.

In the first carriage, Mrs. Sheng, Minglan, Shulan, and Minglan's aunt Lady Wei were sitting in the carriage.

"The gangsters have come to Youyang to cause trouble, won't those rebels come over?" Mrs. Wei said in shock, obviously she had not calmed down from the shock of being attacked by the gangsters.

Minglan said: "The rogue bandit rebellion is not a military rebellion. This group of rogue bandits only looks like a hundred people, and many of them are civilians who were kidnapped. This means that they fled all the way to Youyang after the defeat.

There is a distance of hundreds of miles from Luzhou to Youyang, and I think they must be the same group of rebels who were defeated by Brother Gu during the Chinese New Year."

"And now that Brother Gu is leading the troops and is stationed in Shen County, even if the bandits want to attack, they have to break through Shen County first." Although Wang Zhong had only been in Youyang for a few days, he had many friends with Minglan and Lao

Madam and the others talked about news from the front line. After all, Youyang is very close.

Regarding the news about the rogue bandits, Wang Zhong has actually received the news a long time ago. He just doesn’t know the specific movements of the rogue bandits. However, the auspicious date set cannot be changed. Besides, it’s just a rogue bandit. Wang Zhong has brought so many guards. He is really looking forward to this group.

The rogue bandits came to our door on their own.

"If you want to say that Gu Erlang is really capable, the officers and soldiers were basically defeated in the previous battles with this group of rebels. Now that he left, he actually won the battle!" Mrs. Wei still said to Minglan.

He was very trusting. After hearing what Minglan said, he felt relieved and the topic changed to Gu Erlai.

When she was in Quanzhou, Lady Wei often saw Gu Er at Wang Zhong's house, "No wonder Zihou invited him all the way from Bianjing to Quanzhou!"

Minglan said: "Second brother Gu was born in the Marquis House of Ningyuan. He has a good family background, is highly skilled in martial arts, is familiar with the art of war, and knows how to lead troops in war. Brother Zihou has always respected him in the past!"

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Mrs. Sheng next to her also expressed some emotion: "I didn't expect that Gu Er, a flashy guy, could actually be really capable."

Minglan smiled slightly and said: "If the second brother Gu is really just a worthless embroidered pillow, how can brother Zihou and the second brother be friends with him and become confidants!"

Old Mrs. Sheng said: "The prodigal son will never be able to exchange for gold. If Lord Gu sees him like this, he will definitely be very happy."

Although they both came from noble families, although they were not their own nephews, Mrs. Sheng was still somewhat relieved to see that Gu Er was able to turn back his prodigal son.

Lady Wei asked doubtfully: "The prodigal son turns back? Could it be that Gu Erlang was a prodigal playboy before?"

When Lady Wei met Gu Er, Gu Er was already helping Wang Zhong train Xiang Yong in Quanzhou, so Lady Wei didn't know about Gu Er's ridiculous past.

"I can't say I'm a prodigal, but I was a little ridiculous when I was young. I wandered around the fireworks and willow alleys. I heard from brother Zihou that it was because brother Gu was ignorant when he was young and imitated Mr. Wu Zui. He has already changed!"

Minglan was not biased against Gu Er like outsiders. On the one hand, it was because of Changbai, and on the other hand, it was because of Wang Zhong.

Gu Erfeng's reputation as the vanguard in the formation, Zhao Zilong under the peony flowers, has already spread throughout the entire Gyeongsang Province, not to mention the city of Tokyo.

But Changbai and Wang Zhong were not only on good terms with Gu Er, they also had close friendships with each other. Minglan once asked Wang Zhong privately, why did he still be friends with Gu Er when he had such a bad reputation?

Wang Zhong said, however, that the so-called reputation was just that people who did not know right from wrong were just saying the same thing. Gu Er was indeed a bit dissolute when he was young, but it was far from being as bad as the rumors.

He is a bit dissolute in his behavior, which is completely different from those dandies who only rely on family power and parents' protection to run rampant, but in fact they are useless.

The reason why it has gained such a bad reputation has to do with the Gu family.

Ming Lan has been smart and perceptive since she was a child, and Wang Zhong only gave her a little guidance, and she figured out the details. After all, it was nothing more than fighting for power and property, intrigues, and intrigues.

Gu Er is the legitimate second son of Ningyuan Marquis Gu Yankai, but he is not the son of the current Xiao Qin family's wife, but Gu's second wife, Bai family's wife. Gu Hou's eldest son Gu Tingyu is also weak and sickly.

Over the years, I have invited countless palace doctors and famous doctors, but they are all helpless. I don't know if I fall asleep one day and never wake up again.

Gu Tingyu only has one daughter. If one day, Gu Tingyu passes away, wouldn’t it be Gu Tingye who inherits the title of Marquis of Ningyuan in the future?

Nowadays, the young lady of the Qin family in the Ningyuan Marquis Mansion has always loved Gu Tingye. From childhood to adulthood, no matter what mistakes Gu Tingye made, she never beat or scolded him, and she always defended him in front of Lord Gu.

To an outsider who behaves like this, she is naturally a kind-faced and kind-hearted female Bodhisattva. As the stepmother has done the job of Xiao Qin, no one can point out any mistakes on her part.

But when Minglan read "Warring States Policy" and watched Duke Zheng Zhuang defeat Duan Yuyan, she couldn't help but wonder that Xiao Qin's doting on Gu Er was not flattering him.

There are countless children of princes and noble families like Gu Er who hang out in brothels and Chu palaces. But which parent does not go to great lengths to cover up his children and nephews? Gu Er is the only one who has a notorious reputation.

the whole of Tokyo.

Don't talk about other families, just talk about the four and five-bedroom Gu family, from top to bottom, from oldest to youngest, who doesn't sleep in flowers and willows all day long, hang out in Qin Tower and Chu Pavilion, smelling of alcohol every day?

, went home drunk, but it happened that there were so many people in the Gu family, but only Gu Er was the one with a bad reputation.

Moreover, after Gu Er came back from Yangzhou, he changed his mind and went to Yangzhou. At that time, Gu Er was only sixteen or seventeen years old. He was really a wanderer, which was only a year or two, but he had the reputation of Gu Er.

But it is the worst one in Tokyo. Minglan herself doesn’t believe it if no one here is adding fuel to the flames.

Some people and some things are in the eye of the beholder and the wise have their own opinions.

"I'll tell you!" Mrs. Wei said: "I see that Gu Erlang is a rare good husband. He is polite and has both civil and military skills. Even my brother Xin and brother Yi often talk about Gu Erlang at home.

It’s so awesome!”

"Brother Xin and Brother Yi?" Minglan looked at Madam Wei curiously.

Mrs. Wei hurriedly smiled and explained: "Didn't I go to Quanzhou with Zihou last year? Brother Xin and Brother Yi couldn't study well and were not very talented. They couldn't keep up when they studied with Sister Qian and their classmates.

But Zihou said that they were good at martial arts, so he taught them some kung fu. Later, he sent the two brothers to the military camp to follow Gu Erlang, saying that they were going to learn some riding and archery skills and the ability to form troops.

, and the art of war. It is said that in the future, even if you fail the imperial examination, you can still take the path of martial arts. If you are promoted by Zihou, there will always be some future."

Mrs. Sheng listened and nodded and said: "Martial arts is indeed a path. That kid Chang Wu is also following the path of martial arts. He will still have someone to take care of him in the future."

But Mrs. Wei smiled and waved her hands and said: "Brother Xin and Brother Yi are not as capable as Brother Changwu. As long as these two brothers can pass the test, I will wake up laughing every day!"

Although these words are somewhat modest, they are not said against one's will. She knows that the child she gave birth to is also a scholar. She knows in her heart that Zhang Xin and Zhang Yi are not extraordinary young talents. However,

It was thanks to the blessings of his sisters Wei Shuyi and Minglan that he got the help and care of Wang Zihou. He didn't expect his two sons to be as successful as Wang Zhong. As long as they could have a future, they didn't have to be like themselves and the head of the family.

Working hard all day long for a living.

Minglan said: "Studying, in addition to talent, also depends on perseverance. The former dynasty Gao Changshi, his family fell into decline when he was young, and his talent was ordinary, but he persisted in studying and practicing martial arts until he was fifty years old.

He became an official at a young age, and then became a late bloomer and became a highly respected official. It can be seen that in addition to talent, perseverance is also very important when it comes to studying."

"Although Brother Xin and Brother Yi are young, they are both people with extraordinary perseverance. Even in these days in Youyang, they have not forgotten to study and practice martial arts. They will have a bright future in the future."
