The Red Mansions Across the Four Seas

Chapter 581
King Beijing Jing and his party came out from the imperial capital, and in order to deceive others, they pretended to be businessmen and went on the road.

Naturally, the merchant wanted to sell some goods, so Nan'er bought two carts of medicinal materials.With a car, it is not as fast as riding a horse.After delaying for some time, they arrived at Ningyuan City.

Dai Quan's physique was already weak and he was getting old. He came out of the palace before and went to Jinling Ji Mingluan.

After not staying there for long, he returned to the imperial capital, and then set off on his way to Beihai.

Tired from traveling all the way, coupled with acclimatization, he fell ill in Ningyuan.

This illness has lasted for more than a month, and he has recovered a little bit. When he was about to go on the road again, he heard that Han Tiankui had raised troops and captured Shengjing.

Several people used to be big shots, and they were afraid of being recognized when they arrived in Shengjing, so they didn't dare to go to Shengjing for a while.

Soon afterwards, Ningyuan was also captured by Han Tiankui, and it was not safe to stay in Ningyuan.

It is not right to go forward at this time, nor is it to go back to the imperial capital.So I thought about changing to a secluded place.

It just so happened that when Nan'er was in charge of the bus and carriage of Jia's mansion in Xiawazi, he met a boss Shen who sold horses to him. The two got along very well and lived in Xiangshuihe Village in the countryside of Ningyuan, so they came here That is now this one.

While continuing to take care of Dai Quan here, he was thinking about how to go to Beihai.

While staying here, news of the change of dynasty came.This time he dared not go any further.

Boss Shen also tried his best to persuade them to stay with him and wait for the situation to stabilize in the future, after this turbulent period, before making any plans.

Several people also felt that it made sense, so they stayed here.In the past few days, when he heard that the Beihai Navy was coming, Boss Shen went out to inquire about the news. When he learned that there was a war going on, he wanted to wait a few more days before talking.

Unexpectedly, it was God's will to meet Jia Lian by chance here.

"His Highness Chang'an is in Ningyuan City right now, and Huaiyuan is near Shengjing. Han Tiankui and King Dongping's hussars have been defeated by us, and Songshan Fort and Ningyuan have been controlled by us."

Jia Lian introduced the general situation of the battle to a few people.

Shui Rong and the others were naturally very excited after hearing this.

"Oh, I'm too busy talking, please come inside quickly, it's really cold outside."

Boss Shen only reacted at this time.

"You really defeated Han Tiankui?"

Ji Mingluan couldn't believe the news, it was beyond his common sense.

"Yes, not only have we defeated Han Tiankui, we have also conquered Goryeo, and the entire Northeast has been controlled by us. At present, there is only Shengjing, an isolated city left. Taking Shengjing is only a matter of time."

"It's unimaginable to have such an astonishing record."

Water soluble is also very surprising.

"Not only here, Feng Ziying has already landed in Quanzhou, captured Guangzhou, Guangxi, Yunnan and other places. Chen Yejun landed in Songjiang, captured Suzhou, Wuxi, Zhenjiang along the way, and even Jinling has been occupied by us. After they pacified the south, We will go north to Zhili."

"In the northwest, He Jialin, Zhou Tong, and Ma Qingshan have already approached Niangziguan, threatening Zhili. After we capture Shengjing, the next step is to threaten Shanhaiguan."

"So, wouldn't you want to be a teacher in the Imperial City in the future?"

Shui Rong almost danced with joy.

"I believe it won't be long before this day will come."

"Since that's the case, why are we going to the North Sea? There is God's will in the dark, so it can be seen that God deliberately told us to wait for you here."

"My lords, I will ask someone to inform His Highness Chang'an. If you are willing, when His Highness returns to Shengjing tomorrow, you can go back with her. When you get there, you can see Huaiyuan. Is this arrangement possible?"

"Okay, it's settled like this. We'll stay here for another night tonight. Sigh, I'm really reluctant to leave after living here for so long."

"Wait here, everyone. I'll go out and collect some food and wine. It's such a grand and happy event, it should be clear."

Boss Shen seemed happier than having a happy event in his own family.

"Thank you Boss Shen, I won't get drunk tonight."

Maester Ji also appeared to be full of pride.

"Everyone rest here, I still have military affairs, so I won't accompany you here."

"Why did Brigadier Jia leave in such a hurry, wouldn't it be nice to have a drink here tonight?"

"The future is long. Tonight I have to return to the Taishan garrison. In the army, I dare not drink without authorization, let alone leave my post without permission. Please forgive me. Farewell."

"Alright, we won't make things difficult for you. We will drink and get drunk together when we arrive in Shengjing."

When Jia Lian left, he saw that Liu Fushan had packed his bags and was waiting outside the door.

"Captain Jia, should I return to the team this time?"

Jia Lian looked at Shui Rong and the others.

"Brigade Commander Jia, you can take him back. If we don't go to Beihai now, we are safe, and it doesn't matter if he is not here. Tell him to go back, so you don't have to worry about being here all day long. We all read in a hurry."

Shui Rong helped Liu Fushan speak.

"Okay, just follow me to my place first, and then ask him to arrange for you after meeting Chief Min. Nan'er, just stay calm and stay with the adults for a day or two. Anyway, it won't take long before you can I met fourth brother Min."

"Second Master Lian, when you see Fourth Master, tell him that I'm here."

"Okay, be sure to tell him."

Jia Lian patted Nan'er on the shoulder, bowed to Shui Rong and the others, got on his horse and left.As for Liu Fushan, he has already disappeared.

It didn't take long for Boss Shen to prepare sumptuous dishes, so he had a big feast.

The information about the situation obtained from Jia Lian was first-hand information, and several people firmly believed it.

As soon as they thought that Chang'an was safe and sound, that several soldiers and horses would approach the imperial capital and hope to defeat the San Francisco, several people were extremely excited, discussing and expressing emotion at the same time, they drank so much that they were all drunk in the end.

It was Nan'er and Boss Shen who helped them back to the room and went to bed.

Early the next morning, Chang'an sent a team to the Xiangshui River to pick them up.

After thanking Boss Shen a lot, they left reluctantly.

Looking at the backs of everyone leaving, Boss Shen was both a little bit sad and happy.

This can be regarded as a god-sent fate, only then did he have the opportunity to meet several adults, and he will have a backer in the future.It can be seen that saving people in distress and doing good deeds will always be rewarded.

When Shui Rong and his party arrived at the intersection, Chang An had already led his people to wait here.When we met each other, naturally there were several times of emotion and excitement.

Especially Dai Quan, when he saw Chang'an, he thought of the former emperor, and couldn't help crying.

Chang'an also had a deep affection for Dai Quan. Seeing how many people worked tirelessly for him, he couldn't help feeling a lot of emotion for the rest of his life after the catastrophe, and shed a lot of tears with Dai Quan.

At noon, arrived in Taishan.Jia Lian entertained the group for dinner.Drinking alcohol is not allowed in the army as a rule, and Shui Rong and the others were unwilling to set this precedent, so after eating hastily, they continued on their way to Shengjing to reunite with Jia Min.

The capture of Songshan Fort and Ningyuan City was tantamount to cutting off the passage from Shengjing to the pass, and Shengjing became an enclave of the Tianshun Dynasty isolated in the northeast.

At this time, in Shengjing City, there was an atmosphere of panic everywhere.

The news of Han Tiankui's defeat has spread throughout Shengjing City.For the troops and magistrates of the Tianshun Dynasty stationed here, this was shocking and nightmarish news.

They did not expect that General Ning Guta's 7 troops would be defeated like this.

Although they already knew the strength of the Northern Navy and Wendula Prairie Cavalry before, people still had an illusion that Han Tiankui could defeat them.

After all, those claims are just legends.

Unexpectedly, these legends are now true, and General Ning Guta beside him is vulnerable in front of them.

As night fell to Shengjing City, civil and military officials gathered together in twos and threes, drinking stuffy wine, discussing these nightmarish news, and planning their own way out in the future.

What they didn't expect was that the real nightmare had just begun.

Middle Street is located in the center of Shengjing City.This is also the commercial center of Shengjing City.On both sides of the street, there are row upon row of shops, and of course, taverns and restaurants are also indispensable.

"Liu Xian Zui" is one of the famous taverns.

Cao Depei, General of Shengjing, was having a drink with several of his subordinates in a private room here.

When Cao Depei was in the Dade Dynasty, he was General Shengjing.

At that time, he often communicated with General Ningguta Han Tiankui secretly, and had contacts from time to time.

Every year before Chinese New Year, Han Tiankui's nephew Zhong Ding would come to him and present him with a sum of money and special products brought from Bukui.

After Han Tiankui raised his troops from Ninggu Tower, Cao Depei cooperated with outsiders, allowing Han Tiankui to successfully occupy Shengjing.

After the change of dynasty, Cao Depei got his wish and continued to serve as General Shengjing.

The defeat of Han Tiankui made the situation worse.As General Shengjing, Cao Depei knew that he had reached the most critical moment.

Discussed with several subordinates for a long time, but didn't come up with any good ideas, so I walked back sullenly.

After leaving Zhongjie, several subordinates left and only a few guards followed him.

A gust of cold wind blew, making Cao Depei sober.A few black shadows came out from the side of the road, and the guards fell off their horses one after another, and were dragged into the dark place by the side of the road at an extremely fast speed.

"Who are you, how dare you..."

Before Cao Depei could finish speaking, a short gun was already placed on his head.Immediately, he was dragged off his horse and dragged into a dark place by the side of the road.

"You are Cao Depei?"

"Bold, since you know it's me, you dare to attack me, are you tired of living?"

"Hey, Cao Depei, it's not that we are tired of living, but that your death is coming."

Just as Cao Depei was about to call out, a piece of cloth was stuffed into his mouth. He could only whine, but couldn't make a sound.

"Cao Depei, do you have many questions in your heart? Do you want to know who we are? Why did you kill you? Do you feel that if you die like this, you will be useless? That's right, being a fool, even how do you kill yourself? Those who die don’t know, and it’s really pitiful.”

"Okay, Cao Depei, I've always been soft-hearted, so I pity you and make an exception to talk to you."

"You died because you cheated and betrayed your master for glory. As for the uselessness you think you are dying, I don't think it is necessary. It is your honor to die by my hands. If it is an ordinary person, I would not do it myself .”

"Now, let me tell you who I am. I am Wei Ruoshui, the captain of the Beihai Volunteer Special Forces. Have you heard of this name? I guess you haven't, because people like you have heard of this name , are all dead."

"Okay, don't feel that you have been wronged. You know what you have done to your heart, so go on your way happily. If you really can't think about it and want to sue, you can go to Lord Yan."

"Captain, you haven't done anything yet?"

One of the team members who had dealt with the guards came over.

"Come on, I'm soft-hearted and can't do anything."

How many people have you killed, are you still soft-hearted?
Without hesitation, the team members stabbed the dagger into Cao Depei's chest.

"Who is this bastard called Wei Ruoshui?"

This is Cao Depei's last thought.
