Chapter 59: Wine meets a confidant, a thousand cups 4
When Gong Chen asked this question, Cao Muwen said, "Wang Shouren is already under my surveillance. Why did he send you here?" Gong Chen smiled shallowly and said with an unfathomable look, "In the past few months, you have been staring at Wang Shouren, and it may be the same in the future. However, in a few days, Wang Shouren will not be as idle as he is now. After resting for more than a year, he will run around for a long time.
Hearing this, Cao Muwen was surprised and wanted to ask, "Brother Gong, what do you say?" However, before he spoke, Gong Chen took the lead in interrupting, "I won't talk about it in detail. It's just one point. I'm afraid that this seemingly peaceful situation in Jiangxi will stop for a while." Gong Chen sighed and drifted into the distance with the wind from the contract at this time. This is intentional, and it sounds even more intentional. As soon as Cao Muwen heard this, he was immediately shocked.
What?! Cao Muwen suddenly thought that there was going to be a war?! Thinking of this, he thought quickly, relying on the information in his memory, but... Cao Muwen was suddenly stunned, no! The time seems to be wrong. To say that the time of the rebellion of King Ning in history has not yet arrived yet. In this way, what Gong Chen said is not a war, or it does not refer to the "Ning King Rebellion".
Cao Muwen cleared his throat and slightly relieved his anxiety. But... he thought that after he came to this timeline, he might have changed the course of history to some extent? Maybe this is not a time to travel at all, but another world?" The concept of "parallel world" is also in his mind. If this is possible, then the historical knowledge he has read before will not be very accurate, because he can't judge whether this is "past" or "another modern". Cao Muwen was confused at this time. Looking back on what he had been here for the past few years, is there anything contrary to history!?
This! How can you think of this!? Cao Muwen himself naturally understands that the so-called history is just a "little girl dressed up". What is written in history books is also likely to have been tampered with by later generations, but in modern times, people still regard it as the official history and infer it, which may lead to such a possibility that all the historical knowledge mastered by Cao Muwen may be worthless here and in this era. Maybe everything will happen, but the process is very different, which will also lead to the results that are completely contrary to the historical records, and it is also possible that the records in history books are contrary to the real events. Therefore, it is possible that history books are wrong rather than history. Cao Muwen's mind, which had just been thinking quickly, stopped for a moment after understanding this problem. He was slightly stunned.
Gong Chen also found the strange performance of the other party, just as if he was shocked by his own words. He just smiled and pulled Cao Muwen's sleeve to signal him to move on.
Cao Muwen moved forward like a puppet, but now he doesn't know how to think and judge. Because the question just revealed a truth, which is the basis of Cao Muwen's previous calculation of authenticity, that is, history. If there is a deviation in history - that is, the various knowledge he has mastered - it may be like the butterfly that incites wings in South America, triggering the "butterfly effect" in his thoughts. Cao Muwen was at a loss.
"Brother Cao? Brother Cao?" Gong Chen asked, more and more curious about the person who went to enjoy the fireworks with him, "Why don't you talk?" Are you thinking about something?"
When Cao Muwen heard his call, he recovered a little and suddenly turned his head to look at Gong Chen. His heart was still beating disorderly, but his mind had to quickly sort out what could at least prevaricate Gong Chen.
Cao Muwen said, "Uh... I, I was just a little surprised for a moment. Just... I was surprised when I heard that you said that this 'peaceful situation will not last long'. What's going on?"
"Oh, so it is..." Gong Chen said very indifferently, staring at Cao Muwen's eyes at this time, who neither suspiciously avoided nor deliberately expected to look at each other. He added, "Brother Gong, I'm just puzzled, and I haven't been to Jiangxi for a long time. I'm not very clear about the customs and customs of this province. Since I dared to come all the way to Beijing, I have been staying in Nanchang City, and I haven't even been out of the city a few times. Saying this, Cao Muwen smiled. So, when I first heard what you said, I was naturally surprised.
"Oh! So that's it." Gong Chen's eyes left Cao Muwen's upper body and turned to the front. While leading Cao Muwen to walk forward slowly, he said, "I thought I scared you. So that's it! I don't blame you. You are also a newcomer. Gong Chen smiled. At this time, it was not too far from the place to watch fireworks on the north shore of Poyang Lake. Now there are a lot of people around, and some people stop in front of them to watch.
Gong Chen saw it around and tried to follow the place where there were few people. Cao Muwen followed carefully, but he thought that he was so careful and made a fuss.
"This Jiangxi is naturally complicated, and the Hanfan ethnic groups are mixed. Although Nanchang City is rare, it does not represent the whole Jiangxi." Gong Chen said righteously at this time, "The southern part of Jiangxi is undulating, complicated, and the mountains are stacked. Although it is not too high, it is rugged and difficult to walk on the mountain road. Naturally, it is difficult to manage. Gong Chen said and looked at Cao Muwen's legs.
"I don't know, Brother Cao?" Gong Chen suddenly asked, with a slight sense of laughter and lightness, "I don't know how your skills are? The most beautiful guard hundred households?" Facing this sudden personal question, Cao Muwen was slightly surprised and replied, "Haha, why did you suddenly ask such an unrelevant question? Do you want to talk about skills?" Cao Muwen thought to himself that once he weighed his own importance, Cao Muwen's heart was half cold. He said in awe, "This is actually not good. However, it's not bad to shoot.
"Fire a gun?" Gong Chen's surprise is no less than the surprise of the man opposite just now. "So, Brother Cao, you are more familiar with the use of firearms than swords and other blades?"
"Uh...hehe." Cao Muwen felt a little embarrassed and said vaguely, "Well, I haven't played with swords for a long time, and I haven't practiced it since I was a child, so I'm not very proficient. However, firearms are relatively easy to use, so I simply studied more firearms."
"Haha, speaking of these* firearms, if they are skilled in operation, they are powerful weapons, fast, powerful and difficult to defend." Gong Chen said, "The master of firearms is indeed no worse than those who are proficient in blade killing skills."
"Hmm." Cao Muwen deeply agreed, "What you said. But why is there such a question again?
"Alas..." Gong Chen said with a long breath and said, "Since Brother Cao, if you ask, I will let you know." After saying that, he looked at both sides and frowned slightly. At this time, there were many people around him, most of whom went out to watch the fireworks of the Dragon Boat Festival. Further ahead is by the lake, where there are more people watching on the embankment, and there are many people talking. Naturally, Gong Chen doesn't want to go anywhere in the future.
Cao Muwen also looked around and wanted to find a place with fewer people, but today, it is really not easy to find a place with fewer people. It's also difficult for Gong Chen to be so careful about this matter. Cao Muwen was puzzled, and secondly, his original curiosity was mobilized higher.
"Here, let's go there. There are fewer people there. Cao Muwen saw a shade of trees, where there were temporarily fewer people and not far from the embankment of the lake, where he could see the fireworks about to be released on the other side.
Gong Chen also noticed there, and the two started to walk over. Walking there, Cao Muwen looked at the other side of the lake, where there were only three or two very few lights, and it was not the farthest between the two sides. Gong Chen also looked into the distance with Cao Muwen's time. At this time, the dark night and the bright lights in the city reflected each other; the calm lake was stirred by the occasional breeze. On this mirror-black lake, it reflects the reflection of the other side, and it is also a bright light, just like its real face, full of hypocrisy.
Cao Muwen waited quietly and did not speak. Gong Chen didn't seem to have the idea of speaking in advance. The two quietly looked at the faraway lake and the shore of the lake. I have nothing to say for a moment. Far away, several cruise ships came from the right side of the lake. There were big and gorgeous ones, as well as small and exquisite ones. Although it was far away, Cao Muwen could still hear the pleasant orchestras from that direction.
Maybe one of the ships is Wang Shouren's. Cao Muwen thought so.
At this moment in Poyang Lake, a group of people looked at each other on a magnificent cruise ship. Because someone just opened his mouth and said a bad news, everyone on the ship was shocked when they heard it. Many people sweated coldly on their backs and didn't say a word.
Yu Fu was here, and he sat in the main seat without saying a word. There is some complaint in my heart about this uninvited guest, and the person who brought the bad news is sitting directly opposite him at this moment.
At this time, Yuan Pingzhang's heart is still undulating, and his chest is also undulating. He is not a person who is good at sports, which can be seen from his appearance. Originally, he knew today that thousands of households were responsible for one of the confidential matters, which naturally deserved. But in the early morning of today - the Dragon Boat Festival, Yuan Pingzhang sat in front of his valuable "work desk" and looked at the secret protection sent by his subordinates from other places. His heart beat violently, and the middle-aged man, who had occasional heart palpitations, suddenly felt a burst of pain. And now, sitting opposite Yu Fu, the governor of Jiangxi, also feels the same way. This is not to say that what he has encountered will endanger his disaster, right! That's right! This is a disaster, but he can deal with it calmly, but somehow, Yuan Pingzhang, this incompetent Jinyi Wei Qianhu, is deeply worried at this time.
