People in Zongwu: Starting with the Yin Gui Sect

Chapter 152

After leaving Jingzhou Prefecture, Wu Yu continued his journey to the Ming Dynasty. Anyway, there was still more than half a year before the battle between Ye Gucheng and Ximen Chuxue, so he was not in a hurry to go to the capital, but continued to visit the customs and customs of the Ming Dynasty.

First, he went from Hubei to Anhui, and then from Anhui to Nanzhili, which is Nanjing in later generations, and Shuntian Prefecture today.

As we all know, the Ming Dynasty implemented the two-capital system. Although the capital has been moved to Beijing since the Jingnan Campaign of Emperor Zhu Di of the Ming Dynasty, the status of Shuntian Prefecture has been retained, and it is still used as another capital of the Ming Dynasty.

Considering that the Ming Dynasty has reached the end of the dynasty, after knowing that he has come to Jinling, Wu Yu first thought of the Eight Beauties of Qinhuai.

There is no other meaning, just want to see it simply. After all, it is not easy to travel through time once, and it just happens to catch up with this era. If you don’t go to see the famous Eight Beauties of Qinhuai, wouldn’t it be a waste of time?

When talking about the Eight Beauties of Qinhuai, the first person Wu Yu thought of was Chen Yuanyuan, the woman who made Wu Sangui never forget her and even bear the infamy for her.

In addition to Chen Yuanyuan, the next one is Liu Rushi, the concubine of Qian Qianyi, the Minister of Shuiliang, who jumped into the river and committed suicide because she did not want to join the Qing Dynasty after the Qing army entered the pass.

It's a pity that her death did not attract Qian Qianyi's bloodiness. Instead, he surrendered to the Qing Dynasty directly on the grounds that the water was too cold, and even responded to the Qing Dynasty's order to shave his hair, saying that his head was too itchy.

The leader of Donglin, the Minister of Rites of the Ming Dynasty, was not as brave as a brothel girl.

In addition to the two mentioned above, the rest, such as Dong Xiaowan, Gu Hengbo, and Bian Yujing, are not so famous.

So it's okay if you don't know them. Since you know them, Wu Yu has to see the Eight Beauties of Qinhuai.

But after some investigation, Wu Yu was dumbfounded on the spot, because at this time, the reputation of the Eight Beauties of Qinhuai was not well-known, or there was no so-called Eight Beauties of Qinhuai at all.

After a little thought, Wu Yu understood that it was only the sixth year of Tianqi, and according to the historical trend, the Eight Beauties of Qinhuai were in the middle and late period of Chongzhen.

Even the oldest Liu Rushi was just a little loli under ten years old, not to mention the others, so let alone the Eight Beauties of Qinhuai, it was not even known whether these people were called this name.

"Rash!"

Wu Yu was speechless for a while after learning the truth of the matter. The Eight Beauties of Qinhuai that he had been thinking about would have to wait at least another ten years before they could be completely famous.

Without the Eight Beauties of Qinhuai, Wu Yu could only wander aimlessly in Jinling, but what he didn't know was that it was because of his wandering that he entered the sight of the Jinyiwei.

Nanjing Zhenfu Division.

A thousand households of Jinyiwei looked hurried and went straight to the location of the commander of Jinyiwei.

"Excuse me, I, the captain of the Northern Pacification Division, Chen Jixiang, has something to ask to see the commander."

After arriving at the residence, the captain named Chen Jixiang immediately reported to one of the Jinyiwei captains.

"Wait!"

The captain responded and went in to report

Soon the captain appeared again, "Captain Chen, the master has an order; order you to go in."

"Thank you!"

Captain Chen hurriedly thanked him and hurried in.

"Captain Chen Jixiang of the Northern Pacification Division, greets the commander and the two co-governors."

"Get up, I heard you have something important to see me!"

The voice of the person at the top was thin, not like a normal man's voice at all, but like a eunuch.

It turned out that since Emperor Tianqi fell into the water a year ago, the entire Jinyiwei had been purged from top to bottom, and the original Jinyiwei family was also dismissed and investigated. The remaining vacancies were either replaced by eunuchs or related to eunuchs.

For example, Tian Ergeng, the commander of Northern Zhili, was Wei Zhongxian's adopted son, and the eunuch in front of him was Cao Huachun, the commander of the Jinyiwei of Southern Zhili.

When he heard Cao Huachun's question, Chen Qianhu did not speak immediately, but glanced at the two commanders in the room.

Seeing this, Cao Huachun immediately realized that the matter was not simple, "You go down first!"

After hearing Cao Huachun's words, the two did not dare to delay, and they all stood up and walked out of the house, and did not forget to look at Chen Qianhu before they finished speaking.

"Okay, you can tell me, what makes you so cautious!"

After everyone left, Cao Huachun signaled him to speak.

After confirming that there were no other people around, Chen Qianhu lowered his voice and said, "My lord, this is the case..."

Soon as Chen Qianhu finished speaking, Cao Huachun's face changed immediately, "Are you serious?"

"My lord, I dare not lie about this kind of thing!"

Hearing Cao Huachun's doubts, Chen Qianhu replied with a look of panic.

IndeedCao Huachun believed it only after he was sure that the other party was not lying. Then he said solemnly, "Does anyone else know about this besides you?"

"I dare not hide it from you, sir. Apart from me, there is only one centurion, one general flag and two strong men."

Cao Huachun nodded and continued, "Let me confirm it myself. If it is true, you should find a way to make those people shut up!"

Chen Qianhu's face changed, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead. Cao Huachun's meaning was very clear. The so-called finding a way to shut up naturally meant killing people to silence them, because only dead people would not reveal secrets.

At this time, he began to feel fortunate that he was a man of Commander Cao in front of him, otherwise he might follow the footsteps of those people, a centurion, a general flag, and two strong men disappeared.

After asking a few more questions and knowing the exact place, Cao Huachun once again reminded Chen Qianhu, and then left the room and disappeared into the Northern Pacification Division as a stream of light.

This Jinyiwei commander of Nanzhili is actually a Xiantian realm expert.

"Chen Qianhu, what did the commander tell you?"

After confirming that Cao Huachun had left, the two commanders who had gone out came up to ask.

"Sorry, my lords, the commander told me not to tell anyone about this!"

After saying that, Chen Qianhu turned around and left without caring about the ugly faces of the two. Although he was just a small Jinyiwei Qianhu, far inferior to the commander, he was not afraid of the two at all, because he was Cao Huachun's man. As long as Cao Huachun was alive, no one in the entire Nanzhili could touch him.

"You don't know how to respect me!"

Looking at Chen Qianhu who was about to disappear from sight, the two commanders had murderous intent in their eyes, but that was all, and they didn't really dare to kill anyone.

To repeat, as long as Cao Huachun is still alive, no one would dare to kill his people under his nose, not even the two commanders of the Embroidered Uniform Guard.
