Han Zigao

(A netizen raised a question about the heroine, which was originally intended to be written in the postscript. To avoid misunderstanding, it is written here. At this time, the heroine that Zigao said was the queen of the matrilineal period in ancient times, not Wu Zetian as we all know now).

Na Peiqian also raised his eyes and saw a beautiful man who rescued himself and the other sisters, and unconsciously took another look at Han Zigao's face, seeing his gentle eyes like water, his heart was like a deer in an instant Hit, blushing.

Zigao asked his subordinates, "Where did this go?"

The servant replied: "Near Jiangzhou."

He thought for a while and answered, "Let's go to the government office of that state for now and ask about the situation."

The generals answered in unison: "Yes!"

Two or three women among them were crying and crying: "The slaves have sprained their feet and can't walk."

Zigao saw that many of them had injured their feet or arms when they were plundered by the robbers just now. He first sent an order for the military doctor to treat their injuries, and then let a carriage be vacant behind to pull these women. Came to the Yamen of the state government.

When the magistrate of Jiangzhou heard that the army was coming, he hurried out to meet him, and welcomed Zigao in.

Zigao sat down and asked, "I heard that these bandits have been harassing the city for a few days. Why didn't your government send troops to arrest them? To disturb the people?"

The magistrate knelt down and replied: "The humble official has sent troops many times, but every time they come and go without a trace, they fail many times. Thanks to the general here, they can be caught."

Han Zigao knew that he must have been ineffective in catching the bandits, but he didn't want to be too harsh, he just said: "Those women were rescued by our army on the road, I hope your government will make proper arrangements."

The magistrate bowed and saluted: "The humble official will do his best to arrange their whereabouts well."

Han Zigao said: "Since the army is here, it is necessary to disturb your residence for one night. The army will rest here for one night today, and the army will start tomorrow."

"Yes, I'll make the arrangements now." He bowed and saluted, hurriedly arranging the meal without mentioning it.

At the same time, less than forty miles away from the prefect, there was a person walking around in the house.Like a trapped beast.Suddenly.He kicked down a stool violently and was about to rush out.

As soon as he took a step forward, a person knelt down at the door and said, "My lord! My lord must not go to see General Han! If it gets to the ears of my lord, my lord will never return to the capital. It's a small matter. I'm afraid my lord's life will be a big deal!"

This is the Ancheng Wang Chen Xu who was transferred here.

Ever since Chen Xu was ordered to leave Jiankang and could no longer see Han Zigao, every day seemed like years.A heart was filled with longing and jealousy towards my brother.

A few days ago, I heard that Han Zigao led an army to conquer Chen Baoying, so he calculated the distance.Knowing that he will pass by here, I have long wanted to see him.But he was dissuaded by one of his advisers.

This counselor was hired by him recently, but he is a very nb counselor, his surname is Mao Mingxi.This strategist named Mao Xi was very scheming and had saved Chen Xu's life several times.

At this time, Mao Xi stopped him desperately from seeing Han Zigao.

He knelt down and said earnestly: "Did the prince forget the days when he was not free for so many years in the Northern Zhou Dynasty? Now that the prince has just returned, although the Holy Majesty has transferred the prince from Jiankang, he has not deprived the prince of military power and the title of the prince, which shows that the prince is concerned about the prince Brotherly love. But the Holy Majesty loves General Han Zigao. Everyone in the world knows that, as the saying goes, if you can't bear it, you will make trouble. If the prince still wants to save his life, please stop being obsessed with Han Zigao."

"Why does he want to dominate Brother Gao? I just went to meet him. There is nothing between me and him. Nothing happened, but he still can't tolerate me!"

"My lord! Be careful that the walls have ears, my lord, don't talk nonsense!"

"Hmph!" Long Jiu said, "No, brother Gao has already traveled here, how can I not go see him?!"

"My lord! If you are going to see General Han, please kill this old man!" Mao Xi knelt at the door and added: "Anyway, if you follow the lord, you will die sooner or later."

"You are so brave! Do you really think I won't kill you?"

"My lord, please do it."

Chen Xu panted heavily, stared at him, and suddenly laughed loudly: "What did you say, sir, how could this king kill your life? Please hurry up."

Pulling Mao Xi up from the ground, he still let out a long sigh, and asked: "Sir, I know what's on my king's mind, sir, do you have a clever plan?"

"Didn't the queen mother come with a secret decree a while ago to find beautiful women from all over the world to enter the palace to be maids of honor? Doesn't the lord know that this is a great opportunity? In addition, after General Han left, the lord can invite the magistrate to come and ask The situation, maybe I also know some general situation in the palace, and I can also know the current situation of General Dian Han. Of course, I don’t need to tell you, the prince has already planned to see the magistrate. Didn’t the prince call the magistrate to the mansion a few days ago? Come on, tell him carefully to pay attention to General Han's movements?"

"Haha, that's right. After brother Gao leaves tomorrow, you go and arrange someone to call the magistrate to me."

"Yes."

That Mao Xi finally backed down, and Chen Xu continued to circle the room, his heart was still poured with scorched hot oil, and he clenched his fists and swore: One day, Chen Qian, I will take brother Gao out of your hands Take it!

At night in May, the sky started to get warmer, but Han Zigao couldn't sleep after taking a bath. He put on his clothes and got out of bed, and went to the yard to enjoy the air.

The most important thing is to miss that person far away in my heart. I have been away from him for seven or eight days. How is he?Are you too worried to sleep?Are you in poor health and have you taken your medicine on time?

The crescent moon flickered in the sky, as if they were the gentle and affectionate eyes of that person.

Acacia is long, overflowing my heart.

After an unknown amount of time, he turned his head and was startled. There was still a young girl standing in the yard. She was standing quietly behind him for an unknown amount of time.

The breeze blew, and her dress was blown up. In the warm wind, she was as beautiful as a flower, and her beautiful eyes were full of affection. It was the woman he had saved during the day.

Han Zigao bowed and said, "Girl, why don't you go to rest? But do you need to find the general?"

"No." She blushed, and replied softly, "It's just that Qian'er is grateful for the general's kindness. It happens that the weather is hot tonight, and Qing'er can't sleep, so he came to the yard for a walk. He happened to see the general, and Qian'er didn't dare to disturb him, so he stood there all the time. Here."

"Oh, it's a little effort, what's the girl's concern? I'll send you back to the magistrate tomorrow. It's getting late, the general has gone back to rest, and the girl should rest early." Zigao finished.Turn around and want to leave.

"General!" Pei Quan called out anxiously.

"What? Does the girl have anything else to do?"

"General Han. Jin'er doesn't want to go back to that Qing~~lou, can you please help me?"

"Then who is in your family?"

"No more, Jin'er's life is hard. Both parents in the family are dead, and my aunt has sold Jin'er to a brothel for a year, learning those skills of playing the piano and dancing, but Jin'er has not yet received guests. General! The general rescued Qing'er Jin'er is willing to be an ox and a horse for the rest of his life to repay the general. He just wants to be able to follow the general and take care of the general."

Han Zigao raised his eyes and saw that woman was shy and affectionate.People are more beautiful than flowers, and they are extremely beautiful.

He understood her words, but also blushed a little.Although he is loved by everyone, but in view of his identity.In his life, only Chen Wei'er and Xiaomei had confessed to him, and he had very little contact with women. At this moment, when he heard a girl boldly confess to him, he just felt panicked and shy.

He saluted and said: "Thank you for your kindness. If you don't want to go back to Hualou, I will ask the magistrate to take you home tomorrow and give your family some silver so that he will not abuse you. How about you? I am about to go to war, and the war is urgent , can’t delay. Besides, I, I’m already married, and there is no shortage of servants at home, please forgive me for wanting to disappoint the girl’s kindness.”

"General Han! The humble maid knows that she is from a humble background and is not worthy of a general, so she just wants to be a slave and serve the general." She knelt down as she spoke.

Han Zigao was a little embarrassed, he dragged her up from the ground, and said, "Girl, you have misunderstood me. I have already married, and I swore to be with him forever. I dare not be guilty of this heart, and I can't tolerate others. I don't dislike the girl's background, please Miss, don't beg me anymore, tomorrow I will ask the prefect to take you home, so I can tell your family not to bully you anymore."

After finishing speaking, he turned and left without looking at the woman's teary eyes.

Seeing his handsome and straight back, Na Peiqian burst into tears.

Han Zigao didn't know that in the dark, the magistrate had been sending people to monitor him.Of course, it can't be regarded as surveillance. The magistrate received Chen Xu's order to pay attention to General Han's movements and serve General Han well. Although he didn't know why, he naturally dared not disobey the prince's order.

But that night, both Zigao and Zihua missed each other, and it was difficult to fall asleep.But Chen Xu was also a trapped beast, wishing he could fly to Han Zigao's side, but he still didn't dare.

And it was the first time in his life that Jin'er was tempted but was rejected. He sighed and blamed himself for being miserable, but he also had no sleep all night.

In the early morning of the next day, the army was ready to go.The magistrate sent him out of the city, and Han Zigao asked him to go back and arrange for those women who were unwilling to be prostitutes to be dispersed.He mounted his horse and led the army to leave.

Almost an hour later, the magistrate was "invited" to his current mansion by someone sent by King An Cheng.

Seeing Chen Xu, the magistrate knelt down and kowtowed: "Jiang Cheng, the magistrate of the humble Jiangzhou, has seen the lord. May I ask the lord, why did you call the humble official here?"

"Get up. Tell me what happened to General Han yesterday and today."

The magistrate Jiang Cheng didn't dare to be negligent, he saved some women from Han Zigao and stayed there for one night, and he talked about a few words with one of the most beautiful beauties and explained his instructions in detail.

"Oh?" Chen Xu became interested, "What did he talk to one of the women?"

"Hizhi stands far away, so I can't hear you clearly. However, that woman is beautiful, the most beautiful woman I have ever seen."

"Oh? That's it, where is that woman now?"

"Still in the humble mansion."

"Well, that's good, you go back immediately and bring this woman to this king!"

"Yes!"

About an hour later, the magistrate arrived with that Qian'er.

Chen Xu looked at the girl carefully, she was really a beautiful woman with skin as white as jade.
