The Legend of the Condor Heroes: I became one of the Five Great Masters by drawing cards

Chapter 128 The villain is causing trouble
Mu Nianci glanced at Li Quan and nodded lightly.

Li Quan saw Gu Ping'an standing beside her and bowed again, "This guy looks unfamiliar. Is he also a hero in the martial arts world?"

"My name is Gu Ping'an, and I'm honored to meet Chief Li Quan."

"It turns out to be Master Gu, I've heard of you for a long time!"

Li Quan was overjoyed when he heard this and quickly dismounted to greet him.

As the saying goes, don't hit a smiling person. Although Gu Ping'an knew what he would do in the future, he still had to give the Red Turban Army some face and exchange a few words with him.

"Come on, come on, let's go into the city. It's a rare opportunity to meet each other, so we two brothers must have a drink together!"

"Let's wait for another day to drink. Young Master Gu has had a hard journey. You should settle down and have a good rest first."

Yang Miaozhen was obviously dissatisfied with him and tried to stop him.

"This"

Li Quan noticed Yang Miaozhen's cold attitude and didn't dare to embarrass himself, so he could only smile awkwardly.

"Miaozhen is right. I was not thoughtful enough."

The crowd stopped being polite and urged their horses into the city, arriving in front of the former governor's residence.

This place is still the same as before, except that the plaque with the words "Inspector's Mansion" has been taken down and the lintel is empty.

"Young Master Gu, you and Nianci have been reunited after a long time. How about living together?"

Li Quan left tactfully, and Yang Miaozhen felt much better and started to joke with the two of them.

Gu Ping'an's heart couldn't help but move, and Mu Nianci blushed again, and patted her on the shoulder.

"Sister Yang, you're talking nonsense again!"

"There are so many refugees in the city right now, and it's hard to find a place to stay. It's really hard to arrange for them."

Yang Miaozhen's tone sounded quite serious, but this statement was obviously an excuse.

"It's okay, I."

Gu Ping'an was just about to say that it was okay for him to squeeze in with Jiang Lin, when he suddenly saw her winking at him, and he suddenly understood.

"Just follow Fourth Lady's arrangements."

"you"

Mu Nianci turned around in shock, her face full of disbelief.

Yang Miaozhen smiled outside her sight and gave Gu Ping'an a look that said "this child is teachable."

After settling down simply, Mu Nianci cooked herself, prepared some exquisite side dishes, and asked Yang Miaozhen to have a few drinks.

Unfortunately, Lao Lang and the others are stationed in Haizhou, so we have to find another opportunity to get together in the future.

After three rounds of drinks, the topic naturally turned to the Red Turban Army.

At the beginning, Gu Ping'an made a fortune for them by taking advantage of the fire. The Red Turban Army no longer had to worry about their livelihood and could rest and recuperate in Moqi Mountain.

At this time, the Mongols rose up in arms, and General Xuan moved the capital to Bian Jing. War broke out everywhere north of the Yellow River.

Yang Miaozhen noticed the sudden change in the situation and raised his army again to attack Juzhou, which was poorly defended.

The governor Pushan Anzhen was also an acquaintance. He was the descendant of a famous general and had some ability in commanding troops.

However, the governor had no military power, and the governor was a fool who only knew how to abuse his power. Juzhou City was defended for less than three days and easily changed hands.

Seeing that the situation was not good, the idiot fled the city with his troops early. Pushan Anzhen was helpless without rice, so he had to evacuate to avoid losing his life in vain.

The brothers Li Quan and Li Fu originally started an uprising in Qingzhou and Weizhou, calling themselves the "Loyal and Righteous Army." When they heard that the Red Turban Army had captured Juzhou, they led their people to surrender.

The two armies joined forces and captured the nearest Haizhou, thus gaining a firm foothold.

"I got the military strategy that Sister Nianci brought me. After studying it for a few days, I have gained some insights, but..."

Yang Miaozhen looked embarrassed when she said this.

"It's okay for me to lead the troops to fight, but when it comes to handling the affairs in the city, it's really a headache." Recently, more and more Jin soldiers have been defeated, and the villages outside the city are difficult to preserve. She is concerned about the people, so she has to send troops out of the city and move the refugees into the city.

Juzhou City is not very big, and as more and more people gather, trouble is inevitable.

At this point, Gu Ping'an suddenly saw Jiang Lin standing beside him, hesitating to speak.

"We are all family, so just speak frankly, Brother Jiang."

After all, Jiang Lin was a rare wise prime minister in the Southern Song Dynasty. Although he had not yet entered officialdom, he had already learned a lot about governing the country.

His original ambition was to save the collapsing empire, and he had his eyes on the entire corrupt and foolish Song court. Now it was just a city in a state, which was really a waste of his talents.

On the way into the city and to the governor's mansion, he had already noticed many problems. Now with Gu Ping'an's support, he spoke out directly.

"Let's not even talk about the livelihoods of the people. Even within the army, there are many problems."

Yang Miaozhen's expression froze, and she said seriously, "Please elaborate, sir."

Jiang Lin was so young, but she addressed him as "sir", which was already giving him enough face.

"On our way into the city alone, within just a few streets, we saw three instances of soldiers fighting each other. This shows the depth of chaos within the army, and that even the appearance of peace is no longer possible."

Gu Ping'an had also seen the situation he described before and couldn't help but feel curious.

"I remember the first chapter of the military strategy was about commanding and training troops. Why is it that after so much time, the Red Turban Army is still so disorganized?"

Mu Nianci explained, "What we saw today were not the brothers who were on Moqi Mountain, but the troops that Li Quan and Li Fu brought later."

"Our group is now in Haizhou, being looked after by Old Wolf and the Second Ancestor, the bald man in the forest."

Yang Miaozhen looked somewhat helpless as she continued to explain.

"I brought Nianci here this time because I wanted to reunite the soldiers in Juzhou and retrain them, but Li Fu was worried that I might seize power, so he delayed it for several days."

Jiang Lin was puzzled: "Since they have come to join the Red Coat Army, and you are the leader, where is the question of whether to seize power or not?"

Mu Nianci said coldly, "Li Quan is trying to please Sister Miaozhen in every way. Not only is he attracted by her beauty, he's also plotting against the Red Coat Army."

"Yes, I thought at first that it would be good to marry him. From then on, our two families would become one and there would be no more fighting."

Having said that, Yang Miaozhen nodded, with a hint of relief in her tone.

"If Sister Nianci hadn't come and warned us in time, I'm afraid the Red Coat Army would have fallen into the hands of these two brothers."

Gu Pingan sneered: "This Li Quan really has a good plan."

"Not only that," Yang Miaozhen continued, "Nianci left the city today, also..."

"Sister Miaozhen!"

Before she could finish her words, Mu Nianci suddenly interrupted her.

Gu Ping'an looked at her in confusion and saw that her brows were slightly furrowed and she was shaking her head slightly at Yang Miaozhen. When she saw him looking at her, she quickly restrained her expression.

"It's so obvious, why are you still hiding it from me?"

Mu Nianci knew his temper very well. If she said this, she was afraid that he would draw his sword and kill people on the spot.

Although the Li Quan brothers were villains, they could not be killed for the time being.

If she really didn't want to say it, Gu Ping'an wouldn't force her, but Yang Miaozhen told her everything honestly.

It turned out that Mu Nianci's going out of the city to meet the people today was not based on her orders.

While she was busy dealing with the people's affairs, Li Quan secretly found Mu Nianci and sent her out of the city.

Recently, more and more Jin soldiers have been defeated in the territory. In the past, there were at least hundreds of cavalrymen accompanying them when they left the city, but he used the excuse of lack of manpower and only sent more than ten people to accompany them. The meaning is self-evident.

This was the reason why Yang Miaozhen treated him coldly when she returned to the city.

　Note: The name "sister" is a bit uncomfortable, so I changed it later.
