Pingyuan Town is located in the northern border of Yongzhou and is connected to the Gyeonggi region. The land here is fertile and irrigation is convenient, and it has been an important grain-producing town since ancient times.

It was early spring, the earth was gradually recovering, and farmers began to work hard, and hardworking figures could be seen everywhere in the fields.

More than fifty miles east from here is Baima Town, which is close to Qishui and there is a busy scene at the ferry.

Compared with Pingyuan Town, Baima Town is more prosperous because of the ferry. There are many restaurants and inns in the town, and there is an endless stream of merchants coming from the south to the north. Merchants with accents from various places take out banknotes from their wallets, nourishing this town.

A fertile area.

Rugui Inn can only be considered a mid-range hotel in Baima Town, and the shopkeeper is a shrewd and kind-hearted middle-aged man. Recently, a generous Qinzhou merchant moved into the inn and rented out a small building behind it, which made him

He smiled happily and became more and more respectful.

The small building has only two floors and a total of ten rooms, housing a total of more than thirty people.

The shopkeeper noticed that there were two women among this group of people, one of whom must be a maid. Although the other one covered her face with a curtain, she looked quite charming in her actions. He just glanced at it and felt a little itchy in his heart. But the young man

Shang was obviously not an ordinary character. The guards around him were all walking fast and furious, so he didn't dare to take a closer look.

In the middle room on the second floor, a young woman sat in front of the window, her eyes dull and her face sad.

The maid stood beside her and did not dare to urge loudly. She could only cautiously advise: "Girl, you haven't eaten much in the past two days. Your body won't be able to hold on like this."

The young woman was Nan Qin, who was kidnapped by the villain. She was once a courtesan who was famous in Kyoto for both her sex and art.

She shook her head and remained silent.

The maid Yun'er was so anxious that her mouth was blistered, and she choked and said: "My maid has persuaded the girl before to tell Mr. Pei about the matter there and ask him to help solve it. In this way, Master Gu will not be angry. The girl will not

Listen, it’s so sad now, why bother?”

Nan Qin's eyes moved slightly and said softly: "Yun'er, you don't understand."

"I'm sorry, my maid, for talking too much. If the girl is really dedicated to working for the other side, she shouldn't be tempted by Master Gu. If she decides to stay with Master Gu for life, she will have to cut off her relationship with the other side. How can such a smart girl continue to be involved with the other side?

You don’t understand such a simple truth. Now that both sides are in a dilemma, it’s you who suffers.”

Yun'er suddenly knelt down beside him and mustered up the courage to say these words.

Nan Qin sighed softly, stretched out her hand to hold Yun'er's forearm, motioned her to stand up, and then said: "I can't break it off, and I can't let it go. How could I not know the dilemma of being in such a dilemma? Yun'er, you have been with me since you were a child.

Those around us should know that people like us will never be able to escape the fact that they cannot help themselves."

Yun'er's face was full of sadness, but seeing that she could finally open up her heart a little, she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Just as she was about to continue persuading, she heard the sound of the door opening from outside the screen, followed by the sound of steady footsteps.

She immediately thought of that scary young man, and then subconsciously stood in front of Nan Qin, like a mother animal protecting her cubs.

The man has a tall figure, a strong posture, and an angular face. Although it is not as good as Gu Fan's almost perfect facial lines, he can already be said to be handsome and handsome.

He looked at the maid with a smile in his eyes and said gently: "Yun'er, you go out first. I have something to tell your girl."

Yun'er looked very brave, but her body was trembling slightly, her lips were pursed and she didn't speak, and her expression was very stubborn.

Nan Qin said softly: "Yun'er, go out."

Yun'er shook his head and said, "Girl, I won't leave."

Nan Qin gave a wry smile and said: "It doesn't matter, it's just talk. If he really wants to do something, you can't stop him. If he kills you in vain, won't it make me feel guilty and uneasy for the rest of my life?"

Yun'er hesitated for a moment, but in the end she couldn't say anything harsh and could only walk away with great difficulty.

The room suddenly became quiet.

The young man sat at the table, poured a cup of tea by himself, and said with a smile: "Don't think I'm pretending. You still remember your identity and didn't let me force you. It can be seen that Liang Guo has spent more than ten years in Kyoto.

The career of an oiran has not erased your memory

Memory, this is something that deserves recognition and praise. After we accomplish this, you can return to your hometown, and I will help you arrange an excellent husband, give you money and land, and protect your future.

Spend half your life rich and worry-free.”

Nan Qin didn't seem to hear the promises behind her. She looked into the young man's deep eyes and asked, "What exactly do you want to do?"

The young man waved his hands and said, "This is not something you should worry about."

Nan Qin chuckled twice with an expressionless face.

When the man saw this, he said bluntly: "If you really want to know, it's okay to tell you. I went north this time just for revenge. I took the heads of Gu Fan and Pei Yue back to pay homage to the souls of those heroes who died in their hands."

Nan Qin shook his head and said, "Gu Fan has never killed anyone."

The man sneered: "Where is Gu Liang? Where is the eldest son of the Gu family? Even if you are content with the status quo in Kyoto and don't know the brutality of the border war, you should have heard about the 'feat' of his father and brother from Gu Fan. Don't forget it.

, No matter who the Liang people are, they are our enemies, which is also the fundamental reason why we tried to send you here back then."

Nan Qin said stubbornly: "Every wrongdoer has his own debtor, and you should go find those people with blood on their hands."

The man's heroic eyebrows gradually wrinkled, and he said calmly: "You think we don't want to kill Gu Liang? This man watered his title with the blood of our colleagues. If he could kill him, he would have chopped him thousands of times. Now he is Liang Guocheng.

How can we succeed if the Jingxing camp is restrained and surrounded by elite guards? But you don’t have to argue with each other. One day we will defeat the Liang people on the battlefield. Big brother trains the soldiers day after day and is waiting for that day."

Nan Qin looked at the evil spirit on his face, which was both understandable and unacceptable. He shook his head and said, "The Liang people can't be killed all."

The man's tone suddenly became cold and stern, and he said slowly: "You have been in the capital of Liang Kingdom for so long, and you have probably never heard of the word Zhou Dynasty. All you hear and see is Daliang, as if they are the orthodox people in the world, just like the great Wei Kingdom back then.

.What do they call us? The Southern Zhou Dynasty is considered relatively

Common names, more people call us Nanman, you haven't heard of it, right? I hope you can always understand one thing, the reason why you are called this name is to always remind you to remember what Liang people imposed on us.

The humiliation of the above, Nanqin’s Nan is the Nan of the Southern Zhou Dynasty, and even more so the Nan of the Southern Barbarians!”

He slammed the table and said sternly: "You are from Zhou, not Liang. Don't take those tricks for fun, or I will kill your whole family with my own hands!"
