Warrior in Turbulent Han Dynasty

Because she slept late last night, it was already daylight when Mrs. Huarui woke up. She lay on the bed for a while, when she heard the sound of rubbing clothes in the yard, it was probably the maid doing the laundry.

When I came to Tokyo, there were only two eunuchs and one court lady left, but one of the eunuchs was caught delivering a secret letter and has not been released until now. The food and clothing of several people are all taken care of by Wei Zhong and the maid, and there is still a lot of work every day. They didn't have many complaints, one was because the two of them really had nowhere to go, and the other was that Meng Chang was still the Duke of Qin after all, they might be looking forward to a better life in the future.

In addition to working, that court lady had to attend bedtime, and Mrs. Huarui hadn't served bedtime for a long time.

Mrs. Huarui got up, dressed casually, with messy hair, opened the door of the bedroom, and fetched water from a wooden basin from the wooden shelf at the door. Anyway, no one is watching here, and she is not interested in dressing up to compete for favor, so she doesn't bother to tidy up her appearance.

"Ma'am, do you want your servant to fetch water for you?" the maid raised her head and asked.

"I can go by myself, you are too busy." Madam Huarui said, "Is there hot water in the kitchen?"

The maid said: "Yes, there is still a bowl of porridge in the pot, which is reserved for Madam."

Of course, this place is completely inferior to the Shu Palace. Mrs. Huarui slowly walked from under the eaves to the kitchen with a basin in her hand. The leaves on the treetops in the yard are sparse, there is a layer of fallen leaves on the ground, and the surrounding houses are mostly hardtops...Because there is less rain in the north, most of the houses are like this.

Mrs. Huarui does everything slowly, anyway, there is nothing to do all day, so just dawdling can make time pass faster.

After she washed up, she didn't find the eunuch Wei Zhong. Remembering that Wei Zhong said last night that he was going to go shopping, he probably was allowed to go out. Then I heard Governor Wang yelling outside the gate of the courtyard. Meng Chang came out and hurriedly said, "Just come in, Governor Wang. The gate is open."

Meng Chang turned his head and smiled, and greeted Mrs. Huarui again.

Mrs. Huarui saw that he was neatly dressed, wearing a brand new silk robe and soap boots, as if he was about to go out, so she should have been waiting for Governor Wang long ago. Mrs. Huarui felt even more uneasy.

At this time, the tall and fat Wang Zhenfu walked in, with a flattering smile on his face, and came forward to give the ceremony to Mrs. Huarui. Then they met Meng Chang again, and the two walked into the hall to talk.

Mrs. Huarui didn't go in under the eaves with a look of indifference. She was a person with a strong sense of crisis, so she couldn't help but think about her own way out in the future. Considering all the circumstances, it seems that no one dares to accept her except relying on Guo Shao's retreat; even if there is, Mrs. Huarui can't trust her. The question is, what is Guo Shao thinking?

Although Mrs. Huarui, who was originally an enemy martial artist, was killed and displaced, she could not hate him, because the engulfment between countries did not stem from hatred; It may not be that he is not good at female sex, but that he doesn't take beauty seriously.

But Mrs. Huarui has no choice, and Meng Chang makes her feel unreliable. You have to plan early and not rely on Guo Shao, at least Jingniang is a more reliable person in this unfamiliar place and unaccompanied.

At this moment, Meng Chang and Governor Wang came out of the hall. Governor Wang bowed and said, "I have something to ask, and I want to ask my wife to recommend Guo Du for inspection. I will never forget my kindness."

Madam Huarui said casually, "I can't see him either."

Governor Wang looked at Meng Chang slightly sideways, and said calmly: "Guo Du inspects people with such an identity. They are busy with a lot of affairs every day, and they are easy to forget things..."

Mrs. Huarui pursed her lips, knowing that Governor Wang had bewitched Meng Chang, and wanted to encourage herself to take the initiative... to hook up with Guo Shao. But Meng Chang didn't respond, as if he didn't understand Governor Wang's cryptic hint.

Wang Zhenfu said again: "Neither the Duke of Qin nor his wife can go out casually, but it's a different matter if the lower official takes you out... The lower official doesn't dare to force you, it's just a suggestion, if the madam doesn't want to, it's fine..."

"Okay, I'll try to help Governor Wang." Mrs. Huarui said, even she felt a little unbelievable, without weighing it at all. Perhaps because she felt that what Governor Wang said was reasonable, even if she wanted to see Jingniang or Guo Shao, it was not convenient for her to go out.

Even if Mrs. Huarui didn't care about this villain who bullied others and wanted to humiliate him, she still hated him very much. Now that she has to cooperate with him again, Mrs. Huarui feels very helpless.

Wang Zhenfu's face showed surprise, and Shaoqing was very surprised.

He hurriedly said to Meng Chang: "There will be a young man going out with Qin Guogong in a while, you don't need to pay attention to him, just watch where Qin Guogong has gone, as usual. The people in that gambling shop know you well, you just need to bring your money, and you can go if you want to play by yourself."

Mrs. Huarui frowned and said, "Ah Lang only went to gamble once yesterday, don't you need to go every day?"

Meng Chang said: "What's the fun in this courtyard doing nothing? Since I can go out, I won't be so bored even if I go around. You want to meet Guo Shao with Governor Wang?"

Mrs. Huarui said: "Governor Wang wants to see Guo Du for inspection, but I don't see him as a woman, and I want to see Jingniang for something."

Wang Zhenfu hurriedly said: "Duke Qin can rest assured, the official has changed his past, how dare he disrespect his wife again?"

...

It happened that Guo Shao came back early, because General Gao Yanchou sent someone to invite him yesterday, wanting to see him. Guo Shao had just welcomed Gao Yanchou in, and sat down in the living room in the front yard, exchanging pleasantries.

Before discussing the business, Lu Chengyong walked in and whispered in Guo Shao's ear: "Mrs. Huarui and Wang Zhenfu have already arrived at the gate of the house to see you."

Guo Shao asked, "Duke Qin didn't come?"

Lu Chengyong said: "Returning to the Lord, no."

Gao Yanchou's expression changed slightly when he heard Qin Guogong.

Guo Shao thoughtfully glanced at Gao Yanchou, pondered for a moment, and then said, "What is Wang Zhenfu? He wasted my time. You deal with him. Invite Mrs. Huarui in." Guo Shao already guessed that Wang Zhenfu would cry and call his mother to bow down when he saw Wang Zhenfu.

"Here." Lu Chengyong answered with cupped fists.

Guo Shao and Gao Yanchou were in the living room of the front yard, less than a stone's throw away from the gate. Madam Huarui was invited in after a while, she walked to the door of the living room, Gao Yanchou hurriedly stood up from the chair, and said: "The last general pays his respects to Madam."

Mrs. Huarui saw Gao Yanchou actually here, she was stunned and said: "General Gao, don't be too polite." After that, she slightly bent her knees and put her hands on her side, "I have seen Guo Du's inspection... I took the liberty to come to the door today. I originally wanted to see Jing Niang, and Governor Wang asked me to introduce him before Guo Du's inspection."

Guo Shao replied: "Madam, you are very polite." Turning his head and smiling at Gao Yanchou, "Jing Niang is a member of my family. She was favored by Mrs. Huarui when she was in Mount Emei. The two have been friends for many years and have frequent contacts."

"So that's the case, this is fate." Gao Yanchou said casually, without mentioning the old master.

Guo Shaodao: "Jing Niang has gone out for business, madam, please sit down and wait for her here. She will definitely be back before noon."

Mrs. Huarui said: "This concubine is here, will it disturb the two of you discussing business matters? Or I will come in the afternoon."

"It's okay, just wait for her for a while, Jingniang will come here when she comes back." Guo Shao spoke bluntly and quickly, "That Wang Zhenfu, Madam doesn't need to intercede for him, she doesn't bother to care about his life and death, staying in the officialdom will only create a mess."

Mrs. Huarui couldn't help asking: "How will Guo Du inspect and punish him?"

Guo Shaodao: "This matter is being handled by Zuo You, and it should be finished soon. The evidence of embezzlement and perverting the law is solid, dismissed from office, dismissed from office, and never used; no matter how much he tosses, he can't change the files of the Ministry of Officials."

He said a few words to Mrs. Huarui, then turned his head and smiled at Gao Yanchou: "When will General Gao leave Beijing to take up his post?"

Gao Yanchou said: "I will leave in three days. The final general will go to Huainan to take over the soldiers of the Shu army who have settled down earlier, and then wait for the troops to be transported by water."

"Three days later... I have to remember." Guo Shao said, "It will be practiced by General Gao at that time. There are a batch of new armors in Jiajiafang, and General Gao will also take them away, so that they can equip elite soldiers of the army."

Gao Yanchou said with emotion: "I have heard that the number of fine armor is limited, and only the elite of the front office can dispatch it... I asked to see Guo Du for inspection today, but there is actually one more thing." He looked at Mrs. Huarui, hesitating to speak.

Guo Shao thought that he had no military opportunity to discuss with him, so he said, "General Gao, but it's okay to say."

Gao Yanchou said: "I heard that there was a secret letter sent to me a few days ago, which was intercepted by the court officials. Cao Tai, the eunuch of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, had a discussion with me. He originally planned to send it to me to see how I should deal with it. Guo Du inspected it but stopped it, and considering my dilemma... Guo Du inspected his understanding, and I will be very grateful."

After hearing this, Guo Shao said calmly: "Since I recommended General Gao, I should trust you; I believe not only in General Gao, but also in the soldiers of Shu. They will understand that all Han people are one, and what they are fighting for now is to end the melee and resist foreign humiliation; this is not only the duty of the soldiers in the Central Plains. General Gao doesn't have to worry about anything. With me in the court, you can just lead your troops with peace of mind."

Gao Yanchou said excitedly, "I wish I could get to know Marshal Guo earlier!"

Guo Shao looked at Gao Yanchou sincerely, and said, "It's not too late now. The brotherhood between us lacks the test of time, but you and I have the opportunity to fight side by side, and the future will last forever."

Gao Yanchou clasped his fists, and said in a firm tone: "Guo Du inspected the kindness of knowing you, and the general will never dare to live up to it. From now on, only Guo Du inspected the leader will look forward!"
