The world of film and television starts from a young age

Inside the carriage, Lei Jiu knelt on one knee in front of Zhou Chen.

"Owner."

"Get up and sit down."

Zhou Chen asked Lei Jiu to get up and sit next to him. Lei Jiu sat on half of his buttocks expressionlessly, and then began to complain.

"Master, according to your instructions, we have arranged for 26 people to go to the north to join the army. They are all carefully selected and can be trusted."

Zhou Chen nodded. For the side mission of the Sixteen States of Yanyun, he has already started to deploy people to the northern border. As long as his people can infiltrate it, even if he is only a middle-level and low-level officer in the end, he may be able to rise in the future. to the effect.

He not only asked Lei Jiu to arrange people, but also arranged some people in private. Although the number is not large, they are all loyal deployments.

"Well done, then you will inform and let everyone lie dormant and silent, unless it is my order, otherwise they will live in peace and stability."

He has arranged certain positions for his subordinates in various places. There is absolutely no problem in normal life. He doesn't know how long it will take to go to the battlefield again, but there is a high probability that these people will not have the chance to go to the battlefield again, so let them live a normal life Life can be regarded as worthy of their loyalty.

"Yes, Master."

Lei Jiu didn't ask anything, just answered, and Zhou Chen waved his hand, and he quickly disappeared from the carriage.

Rubbing his head, Zhou Chen remembered that during Song Renzong's reign, there didn't seem to be any large-scale wars between Song and Liao. Was dubbed 'ren'.

Renzong sounds good, but from Zhou Chen's point of view, this is not a good posthumous title for the emperor. Emperor Ren means that his subjects are strong. Can this be a good thing?

Not only Renzong Zhao Zhen, but even the Empress Dowager Liu who had listened to politics behind the curtain for the past ten years or so, was also seeking stability. To be honest, it was not an easy task to expect the Song and Liao wars to start during their reign.

That's why Zhou Chen felt a headache. He didn't know how long he would need to plan before starting a war. He couldn't really wait another few decades, could he?

The New Year's Eve is approaching, and the city of Tokyo is obviously much more lively and festive than usual. The streets are full of colors, and there is an endless stream of pedestrians. The girls and ladies who are rarely seen in normal times have also walked out of the house, playing around happily.

The day passed quickly, and in the evening when the shift came off, a group of people from the Dianqian Division went to the Jiaofang Division in a mighty manner.

Today is the appointment of a new commander of the various squads, inviting everyone from the Dianqian Division, but it is obvious that he is from Zhou Chen's side, so Guo Fen, the highest commander of the Dianqian Division, did not participate. The first line of people also did not come.

More than a dozen people go to the Jiaofang Division, and the consumption is actually relatively high. Usually, people rarely come to this high-standard Jiaofang Division, but when it is important, they will still choose this place. After all, here are all official prostitutes. Definitely much higher than the usual hook bars.

Zhou Chen drank and talked with his subordinates, and he didn't leave until the others dispersed.

In fact, when the Dianqian Division sent someone to the Jiaofang Division to reserve a seat, Zhang Haohao already knew that Zhou Chen would come, so he had already made preparations and waited for Zhou Chen to find her.

Under the leadership of the maid, Zhou Chen came to a small courtyard of the Jiaofang Division. Zhang Haohao was the oiran lady, and Zhou Chen was greeted again, so she is now treated very well in the Jiaofang Division and has her own independent courtyard.

The maid brought it and left. Zhou Chen walked straight into the yard, and then saw a woman in a pink palace dress with beautiful makeup walking slowly.

"I have met Lord Hou in person."

Different from the heavy makeup in previous performances, Zhang Hao Hao only wore light makeup at this time, because she felt that Zhou Chen liked Zhao Pan'er very much, and Zhao Pan'er had always had light makeup, so he thought Zhou Chen preferred light makeup.

"Don't be too polite."

"Master Hou, please come inside."

Zhang Haohao led Zhou Chen into the house. In fact, she was somewhat apprehensive. Since she confessed her feelings to Zhou Chen last time, Zhou Chen never came to her.

Seeing that the New Year's Eve was approaching, Zhou Chen came suddenly, and she was really nervous and excited.

After Zhou Chen sat down, Zhang Haohao poured tea for Zhou Chen familiarly.

"Master Hou, I am not as good at tea as Mrs. Zhao, so I can only use these to pour tea for you. Please don't blame Master Hou."

"No problem."

Zhou Chen picked up the tea and took a sip. It tasted good. He often drank the tea made by Zhao Pan'er, and the taste had already been improved. Zhang Haohao's tea was not bad.

"Is no one embarrassing you during this time?"

Zhang Haohao replied gratefully: "Master Hou, you have said hello, so naturally no one here dares to embarrass this concubine, and I have thanked Master Hou."

Zhou Chen said as a matter of course: "Since you have decided to follow me, I will naturally not let you be wronged. Come here."

Zhang Hao's heart tightened, but he still walked over obediently, smiling like a flower.

Zhou Chen suddenly stretched out his hand, grabbed Zhang Haohao's arm, and then pulled hard towards him.

Zhang Hao turned around lightly, his dress fluttered, and with a cry of surprise, he fell into Zhou Chen's arms.

Leaning on Zhou Chen's chest, Zhang Hao blushed, not daring to look at Zhou Chen.

But Zhou Chen gently held her chin, turned her head around, looked at him, and watched her cheeks and ears turn red.

Smiling lightly, Zhou Chen gently stroked his smooth face with his fingertips, from the tip of his eyebrows to his cheeks...

Zhang Haohao's face became more rosy, and her body trembled slightly, but she still stared at Zhou Chen, and did not avoid Zhou Chen's eyes.

The touch was good, Zhou Chen kept moving his hands, and said in his mouth: "Ms. Zhang, it's still too late for you to regret it. After today, you will never have a chance to regret it."

Although Zhang Hao's face was flushed and his expression was shy, he still answered firmly and firmly.

"I don't regret it. Being able to serve Lord Hou is the greatest blessing in my life."

Zhou Chen smiled, and then told her with practical actions. Amidst Zhang Haohao's exclamation, he hugged her up.

Zhang Haohao's voice is really nice, and Zhou Chen likes this unique feeling.

An hour passed quickly. At this time, Zhou Chen was really refreshed, and Zhang Haohao was leaning against Zhou Chen exhaustedly, unable to lift a little bit of strength, and she still hasn't recovered.

Zhou Chen picked Zhang up well, placed her in front of him, stroked her hair, and comforted her in a low voice.

"In a few days, I will let someone redeem you, but it will not be in my name, and I will not be able to bring you into the Marquis."

Zhang Haohao's eyes dimmed. Although she had guessed this possibility a long time ago, she still had hope in her heart.

But her mentality has been adjusted very well, she can't enter the Hou's mansion as a concubine, but she can leave her nationality and have Zhou Chen as her backer, which is enough.

And thinking about it the other way around, if she enters the Hou's Mansion, she will be a concubine, and with her experience, being a concubine in the Hou's Mansion will probably be despised, so it's better to stay outside and be free.

It's just that in this way, her relationship with Zhou Chen will be shameful, let alone guaranteed.

"I'm a man of Lord Hou now, and I listen to Master Hou."

Zhou Chen couldn't hear the resentment in Zhang Haohao's tone. Although he didn't come to the Jiaofang Division some time ago, let alone see Zhang Haohao, he arranged for someone to investigate.

Zhang Haohao didn't lie to him. Since that conversation, she really hasn't met Chi Pan again, and she is very quiet, and has no other thoughts, and has been staying in the Jiaofang Division.

For Zhou Chen, Zhang Haohao is naturally far from being able to compare with Zhao Pan'er, so the standards for her are naturally different.

He likes Zhang Haohao's sense of wit and wisdom. Maybe Zhang Haohao has her own little thoughts, but it can also be seen that she is still very calm when facing herself, and that is enough.

There is no relationship between him and Zhang Haohao. If you love me, I would like to. With her, he can have a different experience and be more presumptuous.

A man's happiness is not that simple.

"You don't have to worry about it, I have already arranged a house for you, you will live there, and I will not force you to do anything, let alone let you stay at home, if you want to go out for a walk , you can go out at any time, even if you want to continue singing, you can also come to the Jiaofang Division as a coach, or if you want to do other things, as long as you don't feel embarrassed, I will try my best to satisfy you and help you."

Zhang Haohao had been listening carefully to Zhou Chen's words. She thought that Zhou Chen didn't take her into the Hou's mansion because he was preparing to hide her in a golden house and let her be a canary in a cage.

But when Zhou Chen said that at the end, he didn't restrict her freedom, and agreed that she could go out at any time, and that she could continue to sing, even work as a teacher in the Jiaofang Division, or do other things, her heart trembled.

She has been in the Jiaofang Division for a long time, and she knows very well what others think of the women who come out of the Jiaofang Division, especially those high-ranking officials. Even if they are redeemed, they are just concubines without freedom. They may be treated as goods and given away at will.

So if Zhou Chen can really do what he says, even if she is not even given the status of a concubine, she still feels that this kind of life is far better and more free and easy than going to the Hou's mansion to be a concubine.

Isn't it better to just look at Zhou Chen's face than to look at the faces of many people?

Zhou Chen continued: "As for the future, you don't have to worry, as long as I'm still around, no one can bully you; if we have children in the future, I won't treat our children badly, let alone let people bully them, If it is a son, I will arrange a bright future for him, and if it is a daughter, I will also arrange a good marriage for her."

Zhang Haohao's body trembled, with an unbelievable expression on his face: "Master Hou, you, what you said is true?"

Zhou Chen caressed her cheek, and replied kindly: "Of course."

Zhang Haohuo hugged Zhou Chen violently, and said in an excited voice: "Master Hou, thank you, um..."

…………

After a long time, Zhou Chen and Zhang Haohao got up, and Zhang Haohao gently dressed Zhou Chen. What was different from before was that when she looked at Zhou Chen again, her eyes were tender, her eyebrows were wide open, and she was full of energy. Very exciting.

If Zhou Chen could help her escape, she was grateful and willing to follow Zhou Chen, then the future that Zhou Chen just told her had completely conquered her heart.

For these women who were born in Jiaofangsi, most of them are confused about the future, and few of them have plans.

Even if someone ransoms her body and takes her back to be a concubine, she is still under the fence and cannot be free.

Even if you redeem yourself after reaching the age, the future will be very difficult.

As for the offspring, they couldn't even imagine it. Who would think highly of the offspring of official prostitutes?
But Zhou Chen gave Zhang a good guarantee, not only expressing his willingness to have offspring with her, but also promising to give his children a bright future. To her, she was even happier than Zhou Chen helping her get out of citizenship.

What woman doesn't want to have kids of her own?Which woman does not want her children to be promising?
Although these are still very far away for Zhang Haohao, it does not prevent her from imagining a bright future.

"I will arrange for someone to help you with your divorce. It will be done a year ago, and then you can go back to the yard I arranged for the New Year."

"I have already arranged the house for you, but for the servants, I just arranged for a few maids to clean and guard the house. You can find maids and stewards yourself, and I will send you a bank note. "

Zhou Chen told Zhang Haohao all his arrangements.

Zhang Hao hurriedly said: "Master Hou, you don't need to give this concubine a banknote. I have saved some silver money over the years, which is enough."

Zhou Chen touched her cheek with a smile: "Your money is your money. Now that you're with me, it's only natural for me to spend money for you. You don't have to refuse."

After listening to it well, Zhang stopped insisting, and smiled sweetly at Zhou Chen: "Okay, I'm at your disposal."

Zhou Chen's actions were very fast. On the second day, someone came to help Zhang Haohao redeem himself. The person who came to do this was an official from the Ministry of Rites. Of course, the Secretary of Jiaofang dared not let him go, so everything went smoothly. It's done.

Zhang Haohao was very excited when she left the school, and left Jiaofangsi that day without bringing anything, and went directly to the house that Zhou Chen had arranged for her.

The Spring Festival will be two days later, and Zhou Chen also has a rare holiday. Officials in the Song Dynasty still have a lot of holidays. During the holidays, as long as no major incidents happen, he, the deputy commander of the front of the palace, can also rest at home.

Under Zhao Pan'er's command, the Hou's mansion was already covered with red lanterns and ornaments, which was very festive.

"Master Hou, there is something I want to discuss with you. During the Spring Festival, I want to call Yinzhang and Sanniang. They have no other relatives in Tokyo except me."

"Of course there is no problem. You can make up your own mind about this matter. It will be more lively if there are more people during the Chinese New Year."

Zhao Pan'er had a smile on her face, and Zhou Chen followed her in many things, which made her very satisfied.

"After the year, the empress will hold a banquet in the palace, and invite ladies and ladies from various prefectures to the banquet, and I have also been invited."

"Go if you are invited. If there are people at the banquet who are not good-looking, you are welcome. You are my big wife, Zhou Chen, and no one can bully you."

"I see, my official is the most capable and caring official in the world."

Zhao Pan'er leaned happily on Zhou Chen's body.

Fushanfang!
It has been a few days since Zhang Haohao moved to Fushanfang. The environment here is beautiful and secluded, and the house is also very large. It is better than she thought, and it is very comfortable to live in.

Zhou Chen's arrangements were very good. There were several nuns in the courtyard, who were taking care of cooking, cleaning, etc., and also arranged for six nursing homes.

But Zhang Haohao still felt that there was something missing, so she went out with two nurses and a nanny.

Having lived in Tokyo city for many years, Zhang Haohao is still very familiar with Tokyo city. She wanted to buy a few maids, so she went directly to the dental shop.

In ancient times, this kind of dental business was relatively common, because many people who could not survive would sign a deed of sale and sell themselves, and many people who were trafficked would also be caught in the dental business, like many servants. Wait, they will all be bought and sold from dental shops.

With the deed of prostitution, those servants who are bought and sold have nowhere to go, because lowly people are not qualified to act around, and once caught, it is normal to be executed.

Zhang Haohao's mobility is still good, and he quickly took away four maids from the tooth shop, the oldest was only 19 years old, and the youngest was only 14 years old.

Without exception, they are all of the more outstanding type, and the price is naturally slightly expensive.

But Zhang Haohao is not reluctant at all, the person he wants to use must of course look pleasing to the eye.

As for the housekeeper, she didn't see a suitable candidate.

It will be the Spring Festival soon, and she wants to decorate the yard more festively. Although she doesn't know if Zhou Chen will be free to visit her during the New Year, she still needs to decorate it well.

This Spring Festival is the first Spring Festival she has celebrated since she left her nationality. Celebrating the festival in her own home has an extraordinary meaning to her.

Chi Pan, who is the head of the twelve lines in Bianjing, is busy at the end of the year because he has to collect debts.

From ancient times to the present, it seems to have become a habit to ask for debts before the end of the year. Everyone likes to delay debts until the end, and this period is no exception.

Chi Pan has been asking for debts with his subordinates for several days, and even with threats and bickering, he has already asked for a lot, but there are still many debts from Lao Lai that are difficult to collect.

Ever since the Yong'an building was on fire, his reputation in Chi Ya Nei has become even louder, so during this period of time he can be said to be proud of himself, and even more arrogant when he is in debt.

Chi Pan took steps that his relatives did not recognize, and led He Si and others under him, swaggering through the market, very arrogant.

It may be because he is next to the big Buddha Zhao Pan'er, so he is now more proud and arrogant than before.

"Yan Nei, Ya Nei, look quickly, look quickly."

He Si, who was eating a snack, suddenly stared, looked ahead, then pulled Chi Pan, and shouted eagerly.

Chi Pan picked up the folding fan and gave He Si a slap on the head: "Look, look, look, look, what the hell is your name, I startled the office."

He Si's chubby face was full of grievances: "Ya Nei, it's Haohaojie, I saw Haohaojie."

"How is Zhang Hao?"

Chi Pan's face changed. He and Zhang Haohao haven't seen each other or contacted Zhang Haohao for a long time since they broke up that day.

It's good not to mention it, but when he mentioned it, he immediately felt very uncomfortable.

"where?"

Chi Pan shook his head and looked around, He Si quickly pointed to the front.

"Over there, Ya Nei, Miss Haohao is right there."
