Chapter 178 The Unruly Princess 28

Returning to his familiar environment, Mrs. Jiu Nan finally rested for a night.Early the next morning, she sent A Ke to the town to buy some supplies and check the situation along the way.

A Ke went and returned very quickly, and came back in less than half a day, and when she came back, she said with a face of imminent disaster: "Master, what happened? Why are there portraits of Master posted everywhere in the town, and they say you Is it the imperial court's crime?"

After hearing what she said, Mrs. Jiu Nan already knew the situation in the town, so she whispered to herself, "If you say that, you can't stay here soon."

Although she lived in seclusion, she never thought that anyone would pay attention to her whereabouts, and would occasionally go to the town to buy something, maybe someone would recognize him.

A Ke was still asking all kinds of questions over there, and Master Jiu Nan was annoyed by her questions before saying: "I asked you to go to the town, the main purpose is to see if the arrest warrant has arrived here."

Although A Ke didn't know what her master had done and was wanted by the government, she had always blindly believed in this master who depended on her for life. She remembered that there were two outsiders, Jianning and Wei Xiaobao, as if she was explaining to them, saying : "My master has always been upright. How could he be a wanted criminal? They must have made a mistake. My master and I have always been good citizens and never commit crimes. They must have made a mistake."

A Ke didn't notice that when she said that, everyone was silent, even Wei Xiaobao, who always only wanted to please her, didn't make a sound to echo her.

A Ke was worried about the enemy again and said: "They even offered a reward of 1 taels of silver. The people in the city will be blown up when they see such a high reward. Everyone is gearing up and wants to be the first to catch you, Master!" It's good to go to the government to get the money!"

Mrs. Jiunan said: "Why are you telling such important news now!" Then he sneered and said: "The government is using a good method, 1 taels of silver is a big amount, and ordinary people can't spend it in a lifetime. Ake, hurry up!" Just pack up your things, you can't stay here any longer."

If someone had paid attention to her, they might have already rushed this way.

Jianning and Wei Xiaobao looked at each other, Jianning had already found an opportunity to hint him that he was not in a hurry to get away.This coincided with Wei Xiaobao's thoughts.Only by being with Master Jiu Nan and A Ke, can I have the opportunity to pursue A Ke with a faceless face and cultivate a relationship.

And when the emperor blamed him, he couldn't be blamed. It was Sangege who felt that the outside world was very strange and insisted on staying outside the palace for a while.

Just when the four of them got up and were about to leave, Master Jiu Nan's face suddenly changed: "Someone is here!"

The person was still far away, A Ke and Wei Xiaobao had no internal strength, so naturally they couldn't hear anything.Jianning had heard a few footsteps a long time ago, but he didn't feel like someone from the government.

Master Jiu Nan is not afraid of officers and soldiers, but there are so many officers and soldiers, no matter how powerful she is in martial arts, she is weak, so she is not willing to fight them head-on, it will be very troublesome.

Master Jiu Nan pushed the door open, intending to beat the person who came after him to the ground, but found that the person who came was a young son, followed by seven or eight entourages dressed in strong makeup.

Master Jiu Nan frowned and asked, "What do you do?"

The young man was a little surprised, someone would just push the door out of this thatched hut, and said politely: "We are passing by here."

Ah Ke exclaimed in surprise: "Mr. Zheng! It's you, how wonderful!"

Zheng Keshuang came here by accident, and was very pleasantly surprised to meet the beautiful girl A Ke who he had been thinking of for a long time: "A Ke, I finally found you, so you are here!"

Wei Xiaobao's face darkened instantly, and he muttered: "It's that little boy!"

Master Jiunan still didn't let go of her hostility: "Ake, do you know each other?" She and this apprentice lived in seclusion in the mountains and had no contact with anyone at all. How did they know each other?

A Ke hurriedly brought him to the master, and said: "Master Zheng, let me introduce you, this is the master." Then he said to Mrs. Jiunan: "Master, Mr. Zheng is a good person, and he will definitely not be a court eagle dog." , and it is even less likely that they came to hunt us down."

Zheng Keshuang said: "That's right, Madam, although I don't know what happened to you, but I didn't mean anything malicious, I just passed by here, because I have a predestined relationship with Miss A Ke, so I take the liberty to disturb you."

In order to win the trust of others, Zheng Keshuang even declared his identity and name to prove that he was absolutely impossible to be on the side of the imperial court.

After Master Jiunan heard that Zheng Keshuang belonged to the Zheng family in Taiwan, she didn't feel so much hostility. In her opinion, Zheng Chenggong was an official appointed by the Ming Dynasty, and their descendants guarded Taiwan for generations and have not submitted to the Qing court , can be regarded as the post-Zhongliang.

However, they should leave this place quickly. Zheng Keshuang saw that they seemed to be chasing after him, so he said that he brought a few masters and volunteered to accompany them to protect them.A Ke was elated, and Mrs. Jiu Nan let him go.

When Zheng Keshuang saw Jianning, he couldn't help being very surprised: "I didn't have time to ask just now, who is this girl?"

Ake's love affair was just beginning, and she met the gentle and personable Zheng Keshuang as soon as she was ignorant of her girl's heart, and all her thoughts fell on him.Naturally, he paid close attention to his every move.Seeing the expression of his eyes shining the moment he saw Jianning, he naturally didn't miss it.

A Ke felt a little upset, seeing that Jianning didn't intend to speak, and didn't want to embarrass Zheng Keshuang, so she replied, "This is Sister Su Ma."

Zheng Keshuang said: "Master Ling is really lucky to have you two girls who gather the aura of heaven and earth as apprentices."

A Ke said with a straight face: "Sister Su Ma is not my master's apprentice."

Wei Xiaobao said: "That's right, you little boy who stares at a beautiful girl! Be careful you can't flatter, you'll hit a horse's hoof!"

Zheng Keshuang was pushed out by him, and almost drew his sword out of anger: "You!"

He asked A Ke: "Why is this villain here? Did you master and apprentice be threatened by him and have to go with him?"

A Ke held him back and said, "No, he was brought back by the master. It's a long story, let me tell you slowly." Then she grabbed Zheng Keshuang, and the two fell behind and whispered.

Seeing this scene, Wei Xiaobao's nose was even crooked.

Seeing her apprentice, Master Jiu Nan flirted with a man she had just met not long ago, and shook her head in hatred, but at this time, she was not in the mood to educate her.

Finding a small shop to rest at noon, Mrs. Jiu Nan said: "Young Master Zheng, you have also seen that our situation is just when we are in danger, so we don't want to keep you anymore, let's go our separate ways here."

Zheng Keshuang said: "Master, don't rush to drive me away. I think you are a group of old and young women and children, and you are wanted by the Tartar government. It is the time when you need help. My subordinates, although not talented, You can be regarded as a first-class master in the martial arts, so wherever you are going, Zheng can escort you along the way, and there is also a support for each other."

Master Jiu Nan coughed, and declined: "You will not be rewarded for nothing, we just met by chance, how can we accept your favor for nothing."

A Ke then said: "Master, Mr. Zheng is a very good man. His apprentice was injured and fainted before, and he was the one who rescued him. Since Mr. Zheng's subordinates are all masters, we have more security when we go on the road together."

Master Jiu Nan's eyes sharpened, and he looked at the apprentice who was struggling: "Shut up!"

Zheng Keshuang has always been the proud son of heaven, and he is rarely disliked by others. At that time, he just felt very embarrassed, and he didn't want to leave or stay.

Jianning played the role of the hostage well all the way, and rarely expressed his opinion. At this moment, he broke the deadlock and asked, "Where is Mr. Zheng going?"

Zheng Keshuang said: "I was about to rush to Henan. I saw that some of them are also gentlemen. There is nothing to hide. The heroes and heroes in the world held a secret tortoise killing conference in Henan. I was invited by someone and I was going to that event. Join in the fun."

"The Turtle Killing Conference?"

After his explanation, everyone knew that the so-called Turtle Killing Conference was the name given by the martial arts people who planned to unite to deal with the traitor Wu Sangui.

Zheng Keshuang said: "By the way, why don't you just follow me to Henan, so that I can take care of you along the way."

When Master Jiunan heard that he was dealing with Wu Sangui, he immediately became interested.Originally planning to part ways, they agreed to go on the same road with Zheng Keshuang, and went to the Turtle Killing Conference to see what happened.

Because her arrest is so strict here, according to experience, the government's control will be looser as you go south. It's not because the south is not the land of the Qing Dynasty, but the south has entered the sphere of influence of the warlord Wu Sangui.

Wu Sangui has dominated Yunnan and Guizhou for decades, and he has long been the emperor of the land, beyond the reach of the court.

Master Jiu Nan planned to pass the news and then enter the capital.Although she always regards Wu Sangui as the number one enemy, she waits for an opportunity to seek revenge from him.However, if he can use his prestige to escape the arrest of the court, why not do it.

All the people with lofty ideals among the Han people gritted their teeth with hatred for Wu Sangui, because if he hadn't defected and opened the gate of Shanhaiguan to invite the Qing army to enter, the Central Plains might still be ruled by the Han people.Therefore, the Han people regard him as the number one traitor. If he hadn't surrendered and betrayed the country back then, the Manchu Qing would not have taken over the country so quickly.

But the Han people don't know that the current Manchu emperor Kangxi is also worried about Wu Sangui.

Wu Sangui supported 10,000+ soldiers in Yunnan and Guizhou, opened mines, boiled salt, made money, manufactured weapons, stored arms, hoarded food, and appointed officials. Every year, he needed to allocate funds from the court to help him raise soldiers. Half of the court’s income went to Wu Sangui fanny pack.

If funds are not allocated to raise soldiers, bandits will run rampant in Yunnan and Guizhou, threatening the security of the country's borders. What is Wu Sangui's heart in mind?

There are also Shang Kexi, the king of Pingnan who is in Guangdong, and Geng Jingzhong, the king of Jingnan who rules the roost in Fujian. These two people cannot be ignored.The three of them, Wang Xiong of different surnames, occupy Yunnan, Guizhou, Guangdong and Fujian, take advantage of iron, salt, tea and horses, and take advantage of the dangers of mountains, rivers and rivers. If they say that they have no intention of disobedience, I am afraid that even a three-year-old child will not believe it.

So as soon as Kangxi finished his tour to the south, and saw with his own eyes and heard that the place had been eroded by the San Francisco, the first thing he had to do when he returned to Beijing was to cut down the clan!

The Empress Dowager has also returned to the palace with the emperor on his way back to Beijing.Since Kangxi ascended the throne, she has been reluctant to participate in state affairs.She summed up the experience from Shunzhi's growth experience. She was afraid that when Kangxi grew up, he would feel that the government was controlled by his grandmother, and because of political disagreements, another emperor who had a deep grudge against her would be raised.

But this time when he heard that he might want to cut down the feudal clan, the Empress Dowager immediately walked out of the bedroom and went to the Qianqing Palace in person to object: "I heard that the emperor is determined to cut down the feudal clan? I don't agree with this!"
