Chapter 56: Training in white clothes
"How do you know I live here?"
Fat Fish smiled bitterly and said: "The three of us finally arrived in Kyoto, only to find out that Kyoto is as big as ten Fenggan Prefectures, and we don't have any official status, so we can't enter the government. If we want to inquire about the master and the eldest son, we should be
Looking for a needle in a haystack.”
"My lord has only been in Beijing for a short time, but he is already well-known in Kyoto." Geng Shao looked at Qin Xiao with a look of admiration: "Brother Yu knows that the most well-informed places are teahouses and restaurants. We have been hanging out in those places these days.
, listening to those people talking about things in Kyoto, many people talked about your lord."
Chen Zhitai rushed to say: "Your Excellency is a god from heaven who has descended to earth. When those people mentioned you, they were all in awe. We heard about your deeds from the teahouse, and we also know that you are...
.!" I couldn't remember for a moment, so I asked Geng Shao: "Geng Shao, what official is your Excellency now?"
Geng Shao ignored Geng Shao. Chen Zhitai was obviously dissatisfied with Geng Shao's attitude: "Geng Shao, have you forgotten that your life was saved by me and Brother Yu. Without us, you would have turned into ashes now. I
I am your savior, can you treat me better?"
Geng Shao didn't even look at him, and seemed to have no good impression of this savior.
Qin Xiao observed what was happening and knew that there must have been a small conflict between these two guys on the way to Beijing.
Geng Shao is a man in the army, with an upright temperament, he would rather have jade in pieces than a complete tile. Chen Zhitai speaks freely, and when he is interested, he doesn't care what should be said and what should not be said. A careless word may make the more serious
Geng Shao felt angry.
He was not interested in asking more about the conflict between the two, but Chen Zhitai's few words let Qin Xiao know that these guys were able to find this place because they got the news from the teahouse and wine shop.
In fact, this is also expected.
In recent days, the official who provides the people of Kyoto with the most talk after dinner is myself, the Young Minister of Dali Temple. It is not difficult for any old Kyoto person to find out what happened recently, and it is not difficult to find his own residence.
Difficult matter.
"I heard that Kyoto knew about the Xiling Rebellion a while ago, and the people were filled with righteous indignation." Fat Fish was silent for a moment, then carefully considered his words: "But the imperial court doesn't seem to have made any big moves, and the people in Kyoto have been very concerned about this matter these days.
It’s also faded...!”
Qin Xiao knew what Fat Fish wanted to say.
Just like me who had just entered Beijing, I eagerly hoped that the imperial court could send troops to quell the rebellion as soon as possible.
"The imperial court has its own ideas." Qin Xiao thought for a moment and then said: "But don't worry, we will have to repay Li Tuo's blood debt sooner or later."
Fat Yu saw that Qin Xiao was about to speak but hesitated. He was also a smart man and knew that Qin Xiao had something to say that was not convenient for him to say now.
"You have worked hard all the way, so don't suffer when you get here." Qin Xiao has a lot of money in his hands. Thinking of the three old friends who came to Kyoto through high mountains and long distances, and now have nowhere to go, they can only go to him, so he naturally rewards him with a smile.
He said: "After dinner, you should take a bath and have a good rest first. I will ask someone to prepare new clothes for you. I will take you out for a walk in the evening and see the scenery of Kyoto."
Chen Zhitai immediately relaxed, hesitated, and said shyly: "Sir, you know that I like to make friends. I want to make a few friends in Kyoto. Can you...can you take me to get to know each other tonight?"
Qin Xiao was a little surprised and asked: "What friend?"
"We have been wandering around the capital these days. Every night, when we pass several high-rise buildings, someone greets me warmly." Chen Zhitai said seriously: "I think they like me and want to make friends with me, but they just want to make money."
I'm shy, so I don't have a chance...!"
Geng Shao said angrily: "Sir, don't pay attention to him. This guy is as lustful as life. He has been squatting in front of Lefang for the past few days and refused to leave. He drooled when he saw the girls inside. There is no one like him like this.
people greeting

He went in."
Qin Xiao suddenly understood that before Master Chen San had even had a full meal, he wanted to be friends with the girls from Lefang. He was indeed a sweetheart.
He remembered that he had never been to a music studio since he came to Beijing.
However, he and the beauty Qiuniang have been very close to each other in the past few days, and the music studio is not very attractive to him yet. He smiled and said: "Don't worry, it's still early, and the music studio has not opened yet. If you are willing to go and have a look at night, then you can
It doesn't matter." He casually took off the money bag from his body, regardless of how much money was in it, and threw it to Chen Zhitai. Chen Zhitai reached out and took it. He didn't expect that Qin Xiao would be so generous, and he was ecstatic: "Sir, I will follow you from now on.
I will do the hard work of a dog and a horse by your side, and I will go up to the mountain of swords and go down to the sea of fire without any hesitation.”
“After Brother Yu and Geng Shao have rested, we will go and have a look together in the evening.” Qin Xiao said: “The money should be enough. I have something to do these two days, so I won’t be able to accompany you tonight.”
Fat Fish shook his head and said: "Brothers Zhang and Geng can go, but I won't go." He had something on his mind, and when he followed Yuwen Chengchao, he went to Fireworks and Willow Lane a lot, so he didn't have much interest.
.
"Geng Shao doesn't seem to like this one either." Qin Xiao sighed: "As the third boss, it seems you have to go alone tonight."
"Sir, I'll go." Geng Shao suddenly spoke, with a solemn expression: "We first came to Kyoto, and Lao Chen didn't understand many of the rules. If he went out alone, I was afraid he would get into trouble. I followed him and stayed with him.
Watch him and don't let him get into trouble."
Qin Xiao looked at Geng Shao in surprise, but Geng Shao had a serious look on his face.
Did I see the wrong person?
It seems that in the colorful world of Kyoto, not ordinary people can resist the temptation.
"Sir, the food is ready." Suddenly I heard a voice coming, and saw Qiuniang coming in from the door, with a pretty face and a smile: "You can let them eat."
A beautiful young woman suddenly came in. Fat Yu and others were startled. Qin Xiao had already stood up and walked over without any hesitation. He took Qiuniang's wrist and introduced: "Qiuniang, these are my old friends from Xiling. They are all mine."
good brother."
Fat Yu and the other three saw Qin Xiao introducing Qiuniang so solemnly and holding Qiuniang's wrist. The identity of this beautiful woman was obviously extraordinary.
Fat Fish was the first to stand up and salute. Geng Shao and Chen Zhitai, who were naturally discerning, also stood up and handed over their hands. Master Chen San still had the money bag in his hand. Qiu Niang stared at the money bag, a little surprised. Chen Zhitai saw this and hurriedly put the money bag away.
into his arms, as if he was worried that Qin Xiao would take the money back.
"This is my fiancée." Qin Xiao thought that the three of you would live here anyway, so naturally he wanted to get to know the mistress of the Shaoqing Mansion: "We will be preparing for the marriage soon, and you guys just happened to be here.
We can help organize things together."
Geng Shao and Chen Zhitai were both startled. Hearing this, Fat Fish did frown slightly, but disappeared instantly.
“I’m bothering you, madam.” Fat Fish said in a respectful tone, “There will be many places to trouble madam in the future.”
Qiuniang was called "Madam", and she was very happy and said with a smile: "The food has been arranged in the dining room, you should go and have a meal quickly." She called out: "Old Shen, take some distinguished guests to have a meal."
Hearing his wife’s call, Lao Shen hurriedly came in and led the three of them back.
Chen Zhitai took the lead and walked a few steps. When he turned around, he saw Geng Shao following him, but Er Pangyu had his hands behind his back and his head lowered, looking thoughtful.
"What was he thinking about?"
“Don’t worry, no matter what you think about, it’s not about going to Lefang tonight.” Geng Shao glanced at him and said, “The silver you gave me is half for each person.”
Chen Zhitai grinned and said: "Don't worry, I, Chen Zhitai, take it as my responsibility. How can I forget you if something good happens? Lao Geng, why don't Mr. Qin... Mr. Qin accompany us?"
Geng Shao didn’t
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
As he spoke, Chen Zhitai lowered his voice and said: "Mrs. Qin's beauty is beautiful. The girls in the music studio cannot compare with madam. With such a beautiful lady, how can you be interested in going to the music studio?"
"Master Chen, I advise you to be more careful with your words in the future." Geng Shao reminded kindly: "Master Qin is different from before. He is now an official in the DPRK. People in Kyoto follow rules when talking and doing things. You can't talk nonsense here.
If you say the wrong thing, your big head will fall to the ground."
Chen Zhitai opened his mouth but did not dare to say anything more.
The three of them left the main hall, but Qiuniang glanced at the retreating figures of the three, and then said softly: "His money bag...?"
"I gave it to them." Qin Xiao said immediately: "They came from Xiling and worked hard all the way. I will give them a small reward."
"That's not a little bit." Qiuniang muttered. There were still twenty or thirty taels of silver in the purse. When Qiuniang made a living by punting a boat, she didn't have so much silver in a year, but Qin Xiao gave it away easily.
people.
Although she knew that these people were Qin Xiao's old friends, Qiuniang was still a little reluctant to do so generously.
But she hasn’t been married yet, and the money belongs to Qin Xiao, so it’s hard to say anything more.
"They want to go to the music studio to listen to music. Of course they can't do it without bringing enough money." Qin Xiao naturally saw Qiuniang's thoughts and said with a smile: "Don't worry, the gold and silk cloth given by the saint are abundant, and we are not short of silver flowers.
"
Qiuniang opened her eyes wide: "Going to Lefang?" She had been in Kyoto for many years, so of course she knew where Lefang was, and she worriedly asked: "You... do you want to go with them?"
"I have a beautiful lady Qiu Niang, why would I go to a place like that?" Qin Xiao put his arms around Qiu Niang's slender but strong waist and said close to his ear: "But I really want to see women wearing
What does it look like to dance with light gauze? How about you dance for me tonight?"
“I...I can’t!” Qiuniang said with a red face.
"Just twist your butt." Qin Xiao gently pinched Qiuniang's round buttocks: "I will teach you how to dance tonight." Thinking of Qiuniang's porcelain and snow-white buttocks, if they were only covered with a light veil
The swing must be captivating.
Qin Xiao left the mansion and went directly to the Dali Temple prison instead of going to the Dali Temple Yamen.
This is not to see the prisoner, but Gu Baiyi has been training the executioners in the Dali Temple Prison in the past few days.
Dali Temple is a place of office, so it is not easy for Gu Baiyi to train in Dali Temple. Fortunately, Dali Temple Prison has an extremely open space that can be used for training.
After Gu Baiyi was transferred to Dali Temple, he didn't waste any time. He first selected the punishment officers who met his training standards from the punishment officers in Dali Temple. There were nearly a hundred people at the beginning, but during the training every day, a group would be eliminated. At this moment, there are still
There are no more than thirty executioners in Dali Temple trained under him.
Qin Xiao understands that Gu Baiyi wants to train a team of elites from Dali Temple. The training process is naturally extremely strict. Those who fail to meet the requirements will be eliminated immediately.
Number ten, but these thirty people are the real elites that Gu Baiyi wants to train as a team.
In the training ground of Dali Temple, nearly thirty people were divided into two teams. Everyone was bare-chested and raised their arms high, holding heavy iron lumps in their hands.
The weather is not too hot yet, but these people are covered in sweat, and some of them have trembling arms, but they still persist.
Qin Xiao had promised the execution officers in the Yamen before that if Gu Baiyi was able to stay during military training, his monthly salary would be doubled. For the execution officers in Dali Temple, for the double salary
, and we must try our best to hold on until the end.
