Factory owner is king

Chapter 131 The Banquet and the Running Dogs 2
"Weird things happen every year, especially this year. A plain-headed commoner also played the game of self-recommendation, and the purpose is still to join my East Factory. Big man, do you know what will happen to our family?"

"I know, but the villain has a sincere heart, and the world can learn from it!"

"Really?" Xu Ruyi raised her eyebrows noncommittally and looked down at the big man kneeling in front of her: "Raise your head and let us take a closer look!"

"Yes!" The big black man raised his head.

'This man. . .It doesn't seem that simple. 'Xu Ruyi thought to herself.

Appearances are deceptive, but eyes are not.The big man's eyes are like copper bells, clear white and piercing.But Xu Ruyi saw the light of desire and ambition in his eyes.

"Heh." Xu Ruyi chuckled, "I knocked my head on the ground, our family doesn't know your name yet, big man, please report your name."

"Little man Ji Gang, a warrior from Linyi, Shandong, has met Duke Du!" Ji Gang clasped his fists and replied respectfully.

"Ji Gang..." Xu Ruyi's eyes were dimmed, and he looked at Ji Gang in front of him with some amusement.

Anyone who has a little knowledge of the Ming Dynasty must have heard of the great reputation of the Three Factories and One Guard.If you spend a little more time to understand, then some people's famous names will definitely be remembered in their hearts.Wei Zhongxian, Cao Jixiang, Liu Jin, Wang Zhi, Mao Xiang, Jiang Huan, and others. . . .Ji Gang.

The reputation of these people can be said to be like monsters. In a certain era, they are all people who can stop children from crying at night.

Ji Gang, that is, the commander of the Jinyiwei during the Yongle period of Emperor Chengzu of the Ming Dynasty in history.He was appreciated by Zhu Di because he joined the army when Zhu Di was in distress and performed military exploits.After Zhu Di usurped the throne, he was allowed to lead Jinyiwei.Zhu Di was not in the right position, and there are many dissatisfied people in the world, so under Zhu Di's arrangement, Ji Gang became the head of the spy who killed people with a stare, punishing dozens of Jianwen's former ministers, and killing 10 people.If that's the case, then Ji Gang is just a knife in Zhu Di's hand, not a black-hearted person holding a knife.

But his subsequent glorious deeds were different.The saltworks took millions of catties of salt under the imperial edict, and all the gains were taken into private pockets; the rich private businessmen were framed and their assets were seized; hundreds of children from good families were castrated and served in the government; Embarked on the old road of rebellion.

"Your name is really Ji Gang?" Xu Ruyi looked a little complicated.

"Eh..." Ji Gang on the ground scratched his head in astonishment. There seemed to be some other meaning in the words of the admiral of the East Factory. .”

"Then do you think you are a good person? Or a bad person?" Xu Ruyi squatted down and patted Ji Gang's shoulder with a smile.

"Small man..." Ji Gangfu came to his heart and replied softly: "The villain is a bad guy, a bad guy who is loyal to Duke Du."

"Hahahaha!" Xu Ruyi suddenly looked up to the sky and smiled: "Good, good discipline, good discipline, our East Factory was first established, it is the time to employ people. Today, since you stopped our family, you said this After all, our family will give you a chance no matter what. Today our Dongchang is having a banquet, a human flesh banquet! If you are really brave, come with us!"

"Thank you, Duke, for the banquet!"

. . . . . . .

"Anyway, there is also a bad relationship, and I will leave it to you first, and it is inconvenient for our family to get involved." With a soft voice, Xu Ruyi opened the door first and left.

a long time. . . .

"Long time no see, Jing Niang." Yun Zheng's voice was a little high-pitched and hoarse.

Jing Niang remained silent.

Yun Zheng laughed at himself.Originally, I thought that because of the deep hatred between the two, I would be so hysterical and insane when I reunited after a long absence, but when I really met, I actually said such a sentence.

"Are you... how are you doing?" Yun Zheng asked again.

A normal greeting left two lines of tears in Jingniang's eyes. Although she still didn't answer, Yunzheng actually knew that the other person was not doing well.

Although the Jing Niang in my impression was not a glamorous figure, she was still pretty in appearance.Looking back now, she is dressed like a maid, her delicate hands have become a little rough, and there are a few fine lines at the corners of her eyes.

In fact, Jingniang has sent someone to inquire about Jingniang's life, but he has never seen it with his own eyes.

Jingniang's life was indeed not good. Less than half a year after she left Yunzheng and came to the Zhang Mansion, she was abandoned by Mr. Zhang like a pair of clogs.In addition, Zhang Wanwan, who was a bit rigid, didn't like her as an unruly woman in his heart. In the days that followed, she was arranged to be a maid.Not the kind of serving people, but the kind of bossing around like an old mother.She does laundry, cooking, cleaning toilets, and any other dirty work.In Nuo Da's Zhang Mansion, the two male masters did not want to see her, so one can imagine her life.

Jingniang was sobbing, and Yunzheng was used to reaching out to wipe it, but he raised his hand in the air and put it down again: "Actually, I also know that your life is not good. I live a good life, and I don't have to worry about eating and drinking. , I also have a little power. I can give you what you wanted in the past. Not to mention a rich businessman who runs a pawn shop, even those officials and gentlemen, I can catch, beat, and kill them. One or two. If I used to be the same as I am now, you...would you still leave?"

"Brother Yun..." A gentle call came from the sobs.

"If this is who I used to be, then we probably won't have a chance to meet again." Yun Zheng sighed sadly: "I still remember that afternoon, when I was about to go out after delivering firewood to Master Hou's house, I saw You in the small attic. You are so beautiful, I was stunned. You glanced at me and seemed to smile at me, and then I didn’t know how to get out of the mansion in a daze. Just That night, I tasted the taste of wine for the first time, and I drank a whole jar with a plate of wild vegetables. When I woke up the next day, my whole body was sore and sore, but my heart was happy."

"Later, when I had nothing to do, I always sent firewood to your house, and wandered around outside the wall of the backyard of your house, just thinking that one day, you could look at me again through that small window and smile. For a moment. But in fact, I didn’t see you very often. Except for the first time, you never smiled at me again. It wasn’t until I fell while carrying firewood that I saw you smile again. From After that, I always fell to the ground for nothing, and occasionally hit a tree..."

"Thinking about it now, those days were really my happiest days. I could laugh out loud while walking on the avenue when I was free."

"Brother Yun, Jing Niang is sorry for you." The woman knelt down in front of Yun Zheng as she spoke.

Yun Zheng acted as if he hadn't seen him, and still recalled to himself: "Later, when I heard that your father was going to marry you off, I thought that the only fate between you and me would end here. I didn't expect that At night, you actually ran over and asked me to take you away. In the middle of the night, you, a little girl, ran out of the deep house compound and came to me across the street. There was green smoke, although I don't even know where my family's ancestral grave is."

"That night, the two of us ran out of the city overnight, running all the way, and came to this city of Nanjing. I never touched you along the way, because I know that we are actually two people. From the first time you picked up I knew it when I ate only a morsel of that wild vegetable pastry I gave you. But I don't know what to do with you either. The two of us, alone, will be fine wherever we go I live a life of wealth, so I just plan to live one day at a time."

"Okay, stop knocking, it's all bloody." Yun Zheng stretched out his hand to lift Jing Niang from the ground, and then took out a handkerchief to wipe the blood on her forehead: "Why are you doing this? "

"Brother Yun," the woman's voice was still as weak and pitiful as Yun Zheng's memory: "Jing Niang is ignorant, but Jing Niang never thought of harming you. Really, really not. I I don't want to..."

"I know, of course my Jing Niang, I know." Yun Zheng looked at Jing Niang tenderly: "As I said before, you and I are not the same person, and we never have been. It was just my wishful thinking. But at that time you The happy days between the two of us in that lazy alley always made me feel that maybe you and I could live a lifetime just wandering around like this. Until that day, I saw you and him rolling into bed. . . ”

The originally gentle gaze was once again tinged with blood with the connection of memories.

"If you really want to leave, just say so, and I won't keep you, but I was also a man in that scene. Oh, at least at that time, I was still a man." A mocking and cold smile appeared: "How can you let me bear it?"

"Brother Yun?! You?!" Jing Niang exclaimed, looking at her former husband in disbelief.

"Well, it's gone." Yun Zheng nodded relaxedly: "On the second day, when I went to find that dog thief to argue, he kicked it to pieces. Sometimes, in the dead of night, I would I thought, would it have been better if I had not gone to him to argue with him that day, but just left or died?"

"It wasn't until today that I realized that it was better to go find him. Because I found him, I was deposed. Because I was deposed, I was able to meet the Governor. Because I met the Governor, I had The opportunity is today..."

The right palm was raised, and a chill lingered.

"Get a chance for revenge."

The palm fell on the top, the woman's eyes opened suddenly, and a mouthful of blood sprayed on Yun Zheng's face.

Gently kissed the woman's lips, feeling the saltiness in her mouth: "I'll give you a good time, even if it's the last piece that Brother Yun gave you."

. . . . . .

There are always many helpless people and helpless things in the world.

Was Yun Zheng wrong?
He fell in love with someone he shouldn't like, and when she wanted to leave, he took her away. When she needed someone to rely on, he worked hard to be her support, but when she didn't need him, He didn't leave decisively.

Is that woman named Jing Niang wrong?
She is just a girl who grew up in a boudoir, a girl who loves to dream.She just made the world simpler.Those wits and beauties always talk about "drinking water to be full" and so on, but when the dream came into reality, she realized that no matter what time she drank water, she couldn't really be full, and the feeling of being hungry was very It's uncomfortable, but she can't bear it.

Making a choice is like walking on a fork in the road without a sign.Once you have chosen a direction, there is no way back, everything must be decided by fate.

. . . . . .

"Have you heard about Yun Zheng?"

"Yes."

"Oh, our family forgot. You are from Eunuch Zhang's side. It's normal to know these things that are not secrets." Xu Ruyi patted his forehead, and the black cat remained silent.

"Everyone has his own story. Yun Zheng's temper is a little more violent and cruel, but in fact he is still a loyal person at heart. You will know it as time goes by. As for you," Xu Ruyi looked at the black cat : "You don't like to talk, and we haven't had the chance to see your ability to do things, but we have seen your ability to cut off the flesh and bones, and we admire you deeply. It seems that you were able to speak well at that time. Say a few more words. I guess you are also a person with stories."

"Master...me." The black cat seemed to be hesitant, and its brows gradually frowned.

"Needless to say, our family doesn't want to hear it yet." Xu Ruyi waved his hand: "At least until you really want to say it, our family doesn't want to hear it." With a gentle turn of his right hand in mid-air, a dead leaf on the ground flew into his finger , then turned into fragments.

"Since you have heard the story of Yun Zheng, you also know the origin of the group of people who came back before you want to come?" Xu Ruyi looked at the black cat: "We don't know much about Zhang Wanwan's family, so we don't know much about it, but It's not important. Since he offended our Dongchang people, he is no different from offending King Yama. This person in our family has a weird temper, and he doesn't help his relatives. Yun Zheng's life was ruined by that Zhang Dongliang Naturally, our family can't let them have a good death. When Yun Zheng comes out in a while, go over and have a look. If the woman named Jing Niang is not dead, it's fine. If she is dead, then you ..."

The black cat came up with its ear, listening to Xu Ruyi's instructions, nodding from time to time.

. . . . . .

In front of the gate of the Zhang Mansion, the common people who had watched the excitement earlier had already dispersed, but in the surrounding paving restaurants, people were still discussing the previous scene in twos and threes. The three words that appeared most in their mouths were the masked The "feast of human flesh" mentioned by the governor of Dongchang at the end.

Really want to eat people?Or do you mean something else?
Some people believe it, but most people still don't.

In the endless flow of people, a middle-aged man with a gloomy face and a worn-out gown looked up at the direction of Dongchang, thoughtful.
