Ming Zuo

Chapter 17 Good Brother

The smell of incense teaching and the white lotus teaching are actually the same thing.

Although Wenxiang Sect never prides itself on the White Lotus Sect, it still inherits the legacy of the White Lotus Sect.

In the early Ming Dynasty, the White Lotus Sect was popular for a while, but it was suppressed by the imperial court for many times.Especially after the uprising of Tang Saier, the White Lotus Sect was not in the spotlight.

In order to avoid the pursuit of the imperial court, the members of the White Lotus Sect at that time changed their original religious name: Maitreya Sect.

During the Zhengde years, Li Fuda, who mixed into a commander, was the head of the Maitreya sect.

Afterwards, Maitreya Sect was suppressed by the Ming court. After several twists and turns, Wang Sen from Hebei acted in the name of Wenxiang Sect and grew rapidly, and its followers spread all over Hebei, Shandong, Gan, Jin, Henan, Qin, Sichuan and other places.

During the Tianqi period, Wang Haoxian and Xu Hongru, the sons of Wang Sen, rebelled, and the areas of Zhili and Shandong were not lightly harmed.

After being suppressed by the imperial court, the smelling incense sect lurked.

Unexpectedly, due to the natural and man-made disasters of Ji Fu, Wenxiang Religion is ready to move again.

Zuo Menggeng knew that the White Lotus Saint was afraid that she would find him in the future.

But it doesn't matter, since the hatred is forged, he is not the one to deal with passively.

Zuo Menggeng looked at the person behind Zuo Kuan and bowed his hands as a salute.

"Brother Zhou, is everything okay?"

Among Zuo Liangyu's personal soldiers, there is a strange person.

This person's name is Zhou You, the word Sigui.In his twenties, his martial arts skills are so-so.

The strange thing is that Zuo Liangyu never took him to the battlefield every time he went to the battlefield, and let him live in his handsome tent.

This treatment, even Zuo Menggeng, his own son, did not have it.

Moreover, Zhou You was not from the Zuofu family, and Zuo Menggeng had never seen him before.

For this reason, when he first arrived in Liaodong, Zuo Menggeng was indignant, and he made many troubles to travel around.

Traveling around but not arguing with him, always avoiding, never interacting with others, very mysterious.

Zuo Menggeng once suspected that Zhou You was Zuo Liangyu's illegitimate son, but now that he thinks about it, I'm afraid it's not.

In his memory, Zuo Liangyu was quite cautious about this tour, and he still had some respect.Unsurprisingly, this person may be carrying some secrets and stories.

With the passage of time, Zuo Menggeng is not the same as before, and naturally there is no grievance in the past.

His change surprised Zhou You.

But he is not a talkative person. After handing over his hands, he retreated to the side.There was a strange look in his eyes, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

Zuo Menggeng accompanied Zuo Kuan, protecting the convoy back to the city.

When they were about to go outside the city, they met Zuo Liangyu and his group.

This cheap old man is probably full of fun.The blood all over his body added to the murderous aura, causing the soldiers who were defending the city to retreat.

Seeing that Zuo Menggeng, Zuo Kuan and others returned safely, Zuo Liangyu felt relieved.

"You all go home, I went to the local parent official and said. How can it be justified to let the evildoers of Wenxiang Sect act recklessly and so derelictly?"

Zuo Menggeng was helpless and had to lead everyone back to the mansion.

After entering the door, before entering the main hall, I heard a shrill voice bragging.

"When the second from the left comes back this time, our brothers will combine their swords, and there will be no benefit. Liu Yiyuan is a treacherous villain, and he is arrogant and proud while my virtuous brother is not there. I will find a place in the future and let him understand that this Linqing city is in the end. Whose world is it?"

Xu Ruolin's voice also came out.

"Of course it is the world of Ming Dynasty."

"Uh……"

It's not so contradictory, and people have nothing to say.

The voice said angrily: "What do you know as a woman? You need to know that life and death are a small matter, but face is a big deal. If you don't teach that Liu Yiyuan well, how can I, Zhang, be in Linqing in the future?"

There was no anger in Zuo Xianmei's voice.

"The Zhang family's elder brother Te is also making a fool of himself. A man and a man should aim in the four directions, fighting in the streets, fighting in the brothel, and harassing the neighbors. This is the calamity of Zhou."

"Who is Zhou Chu?"

Xu Ruolin and Zuo Xianmei laughed out loud, probably surprised by this person's ignorance.

Zuo Menggeng stepped into the door and saw three young people sitting in the hall, the atmosphere was not harmonious.

A young man who was hanging around in a chair was still shaking a folding fan on a cold day.I don't know if it's coquettish or crazy, but it's not like a normal person.

He was about the same age as Zuo Menggeng, but he was born with sharp-nosed monkey cheeks, as thin as bamboo.

If it wasn't for wearing a gorgeous silk robe, I'm afraid it wouldn't be much better than the refugees outside the city.

"Haha, why did Brother Haogu come to the door? Did he come to wash the dust for his brother?"

"Oh, the second from the left, it's time to wait for you."

The man rushed over, hugged Zuo Menggeng, and laughed wantonly, quite real.

In the face of this person, Zuo Menggeng also put down the estrangement, and at the same time was really happy, he felt that there was humor in the weirdness.

This man is Zuo Menggeng's dog-meat brother, and he is also a street tyrant in Linqing.

This person's name is funny, actually called Zhang Haogu.

I didn't realize it before, but now, when I hear it, Zuo Menggeng can't help but suspect that Mr. Liu Baorui's cross talk is not made up out of thin air.

Don't look at Zhang Haogu as a playboy, but his family is amazing.

The Zhang family of Yaozhuang is a famous family in Linqing.

In the early Ming Dynasty, Zhang Zhongde, the ancestor of Zhang's family, moved to Linqing.After several generations of development, the Zhang family has become increasingly prosperous.Not only are there eight hectares of fertile land, but also horse farms.

After that, Zhang's famous people came out in large numbers.

The person in charge of the Zhang family today is Zhang Zhenxiu, the uncle of Zhang Hao's ancient clan.

During the Wanli period, he served as the magistrate of Feixiang and was promoted to the head of the Ministry of War.Later offended the eunuch party, resigned and returned home.In the folk, Shilin quite prestige, comeback is imminent.

In addition to Zhang Zhenxiu, Zhang Zongheng, another member of the Zhang family, once served as the governor of Datong, and Zhang Zongling was the magistrate of Pingyuan.

Zhang Haogu's father was Zhang Zonghuan, who was not an official, but was in charge of the family business. He was a local businessman.

With such a family background, Zhang Haogu is of course rampant and no one dares to provoke him.

However, Zuo Menggeng couldn't help laughing when he thought of the widely circulated cross talk.

"Brother Zhang, I met a North Korean warlock in Liaodong. This man is very good at seeing things, and there is nothing wrong with him. My brother learned a little bit, and just now, I found out that Brother Zhang is a minister with a prosperous official career."

Zhang Haogu blinked, a little confused.

"What do you say?"

Zuo Menggeng's expression was very solemn, and no one could not listen carefully.

"As far as physiognomy is concerned, as long as Brother Zhang joins the imperial examinations, it is easy to get a title on the gold list, and he will have his own help. After entering the officialdom, it will be unfavorable. With the help of good wind, it is just around the corner."

Zhang Haogu shook his head and rubbed his eyes again, as if he didn't know Zuo Menggeng.

"Brother, is it hysteria? I'm not even a scholar, how can I get a Jinshi?"

Zuo Menggeng just insisted.

"Brother Zhang, listen to what your brother has to say. Your life is very expensive, and what is impossible for ordinary people is a matter of course for you. Brother Zhang will have to sit in a high-ranking official tomorrow, but don't forget your brother."

Zhang Haogu touched his forehead, and before he knew it, he was a little moved.

No way, although he is inexperienced, the Zhang family is a scholar.Every time Zhang Zonghuan met the outstanding children of the clan, he would definitely treat him severely when he came back.

If this can be done by an official, the father's face will be passable.

"What's the name of the warlock?"

"Song Kang-ho."

Zuo Menggeng lied without blinking. Anyway, Zhang Haogu couldn't travel through time and space to get the truth.

On the side Xu Ruolin and Zuo Xianmei looked at Zhang Haogu's vaguely demonic appearance, and could hardly help laughing.

Fortunately, the footsteps were clanging outside, and the speed of the whirlwind came in.

"Hmph, Gouguan. When Laozi makes a comeback, he will not let him go."

Zuo Liangyu was furious, like a beast.

Zuo Xianmei was overjoyed and rushed up to meet her.

"Daddy."

Zuo Liangyu's anger miraculously disappeared when he saw his daughter who was as beautiful as a jade.

"Good girl, I haven't seen you in a few years. She's so old."

Zuo Xianmei turned around and ran to the backyard.

"I went to find my mother, she has been waiting for a long time."

Only then did Zhang Haogu come over and salute Zuo Liangyu.

"Uncle Zuo, I haven't seen you for a long time. I heard the second Zuo say that you are very powerful in Liaodong, and you can stop the children from crying at night, which really makes the little nephew yearn and admire."

Zuo Liangyu knew him.

At a glance, he was not happy to see his bean sprouts-like body.

"Zhang family boy, since you have the heart, come over tomorrow, I will train you personally."

Zhang Haogu's face turned green, annoyed that he was talking too much.

Of course, Zuo Liangyu would not care about a junior, so he saw Xu Ruolin who was timid.

"This girl is..."

Zuo Menggeng was busy making an introduction.

Zuo Liangyu was shocked when he heard that it was the granddaughter of Xu Guangqi, the servant of the Ministry of Rites, and did not expect to have such a distinguished guest at home.

After careful questioning, Zuo Menggeng said something about the previous incident.

"Let you all walk slowly, don't provoke right and wrong, do you really think that after a few days of learning kung fu, you can go to the world? It's a fluke today, if you dare to do anything wrong in the future, you won't be spared."

Zuo Menggeng was extremely depressed.

The way this old man treats his son and his daughter is completely different!
