Nandu City.

Dr. Zhao looked at the rushing Qinhuai River. There were many ships in the river, most of which were heading towards the Yangtze River.

He was considering whether to place the capital of Zhao in Nandu.

If Hangzhou City is positioned as the capital of the royal capital, the location of the Age of Discovery is indeed a bit too far-reaching. Zhao State has all kinds of support provided by him, and the technological power is definitely the world's number one. Hangzhou City and Hangwan are too close to facing the sea.

The south is different. Although it is Linjiang, it has a river road of about 300 kilometers. Whether it is Shanghu County at the mouth of the sea or many cities along the river, it can exist as a fortress.

Beware of enemies from the ocean.

In addition to the easy improvement of defense power, Nandu is also in a good location, and can be built with various water and land transportation.

The capital in the north is not bad, but in the Age of Discovery, the Nandu cultivated a royal city and was more likely to face the South and the Pacific Oceans.

Just as His Highness Zhao was thinking, in the Qinhuai River waterway ahead, a sailboat that was eager to move forward accidentally hit another merchant ship while driving, and there was a sound of falling into the water and a cry for help sounded.

It sounds like a woman fell into the water.

However, the sailboat that collided with the ship ignored these things and moved forward urgently.

On the merchant ship, there were also people calling for help, but no one went into the water for a while. Even the merchant ship itself was urging them not to worry about it and start the ship quickly.

Zhao Xueyan was speechless, but he still stepped on the lightning skills and floated for twenty or thirty meters, like a white lightning bolt arrived on the merchant ship where something was wrong, then jumped into the water, and carried the woman who fell into the water.

When standing on the deck again, a figure also ran over and hugged the woman who fell into the water, "Miss, how are you doing? Is there anything wrong..."

The woman who fell into the water coughed a few times and vomited some water before thanking Dr. Zhao with a panic expression, "Thank you, my son..."

On the deck, a few sailors glanced at it and continued to control the ship to head north.

Some people are also urging the ship to drive faster, so as not to delay their escape time...

That's right, most of the ships on the Qinhuai River were local tyrants and evil gentry who fled north, scholars and other upper-class people in the feudal era.

Of course, His Highness Zhao, the one who caused this craze to run away!

The 300,000 army swept half of the south of the Yangtze River, southern Fujian, western Jiangxi, two lakes, and eastern Guangdong were all under the army of King Zhao.

Zhao's administrative system is covered by the Chinese magical powers. The grassroots civil servants trained to govern. If they are good at doing grassroots civil servants, they will be upgraded...

There was no soil for local tyrants or evil gentry or feudal scholars to survive. With the reforms from the fields to the machinery factories, the property of local tyrants and gentry was also confiscated like harvested wheat, and then rented it to all the civilians in Jiangnan at a price of 10% of the land rent.

In this case, a wave of gold, silver and soft soft materials fled north or fled west, and even a large number of people fled south in eastern Guangdong and southern Fujian.

If King Zhao thought, he could naturally instruct his soldiers to keep an eye on these local tyrants and evil gentry to seize one, and make a big profit.

However, his vision was not so shallow. A year ago, the battle between the fire and shelling of Edo Shogunate caused a bloody collapse. The island country also had many gold and silver mountains, no matter how many gold and silver jewelry were taken away from the gentry and tyrants who fled from all sides this time.

In fact, it is not enough to make the mining team under King Zhao's command more money from digging a few more shovels in the mountains of gold and silver.

His efficient burial shovel, and he temporarily rewarded the soldiers for mining, and his efficiency was extraordinary.

Besides, in this era, there are still gold and silver ships transporting gold and silver across the Pacific Ocean. The navy went south and grabbed a wave. It is no more refreshing than the fugitive gentry in Zhao State?

Because it was a large escape force, someone on the river was in a hurry to sail, hitting other ships and even knocking people into the water... but continued to rush as if he hadn't seen it.

Other merchants of this merchant ship also ignored the fallen water and just wanted to run faster, just fucking.

While the woman who fell into the water thanked her, Dr. Zhao waved his hand, "No need to thank you. I suggest you go back to the cabin to change your clothes to avoid typhoid fever."

The girl fell into the water smiled bitterly, not knowing what to say.

Dr. Zhao said curiously, "Why, the merchant ships don't allow you to change your wet clothes?"

The girl fell into the water shook her head helplessly, and her maid explained, "Originally, the merchant ships that were only for our two families came from the south. As we walked, dozens of families from various prefectures rushed up along the way. The other maids of our Mei family were dispersed to other ships, leaving only me and the lady."

"It's also a resting cabin now, with seven or eight people sharing... although they are all female members..."

She won't continue to explain.

Anyone who understands it understands it.

Before Dr. Zhao's rise in this era, although it was not the Ming and Qing dynasties, its customs were still somewhat similar to the two dynasties. Cheng-Zhu Neo-Confucianism was still very popular, which was also the main reason why Dr. Zhao looked down on the Shilin circle at all.

The daughter who grew up in this environment? Even the family of local scholars is very careful to avoid suspicion. Basically... everyone is running away, and not so many people are always attracted to their attention in the chaos.

If there were many relatives and friends of the girl who fell into the water before, she was hugged by Dr. Zhao, a strange man, and flew onto the boat, even if it was to help her, it would be equivalent to the person who fell into the water who fell into the water and died directly from a large community!

Dr. Zhao was speechless, "Then I will save people to the end."

After saying that, he held the waist of the fallen man, including grabbing the maid's shoulder, and used his lightning skills to reach the shore. He moved rapidly in a flash, and then there were several more ups and downs. With the sounds of the two women, he had already arrived in an empty courtyard.

Putting down the two girls and smiling, "It's quiet now, and there are not so many outsiders. Just find an empty room to change your clothes."

The girl fell into the water was stunned, and the maid screamed, "Our salute is still on the boat..."

Dr. Zhao created a package out of thin air, and some of them were clean clothes that could be replaced.

After the fallen girl and the maid looked at each other for a while, they opened the package and chose a set of clothes to change.

Standing in the empty house, His Highness Zhao was a little speechless. He didn't expect to rescue a familiar face and also have a sign-in reward.

The system prompted that he signed in Mei Sanniang to succeed and reward the supernatural powers and painted skins... The painting of the skin consumes humanitarian merits. The specific numbers depend on the situation. Under the supernatural power effect, the human-shaped outerwear, including the facial features, can be easily covered on others, just like changing clothes, allowing the target to change its appearance at will.

He has an impression of this story, the most beautiful girl, Gui Mei Sanniang.

In that story, Mei Sanniang was already a ghost when she appeared. She was killed by her husband and wanted to take revenge. Her husband Wang Anxu, who became the husband of the Stories from a Chinese dynasty, was also a Hanlin scholar in the court, and her second wife Chen Yuehui, and her father served as the Hanlin Censor of the dynasty.

It was Wang Anxu who killed Mei Sanniang in order to gain the power of his father-in-law and successfully married Chen Yuehui. However, Xiao Chen had no good ending. In the later stage, Wang Anxu tried to kill Chen Yuehui in order to marry the princess.

Lao Wang is the standard contemporary Chen Shimei.

He actually met the living Mei Sanniang... Before the other party died, he had painted the magical power of painting? It seemed that this magical power had meaning, well, it still made sense.

Although the transformation powers he has made from the Qingtou Dawei are not bad, and even palm prints and fingerprints can be changed exactly the same, but this is not a skill that can not suppress one's body.

While waiting, Dr. Zhao arrived at a stone table in the courtyard, turned into wine and started drinking.

After Mei Sanniang and maid Xiaozhu who had changed her clothes walked out, Dr. Zhao waved to the two girls. Mei Sanniang, who looked eighteen or nineteen years old, walked over with a blushing face and bowed, "Thank you again, my son, but..."

Her family all went north to flee, and her fiancé Wang Anxu's family also fled north.

Now, a weak woman and maid were suddenly captured in this strange house in Nandu City. The young man who saved people was taller and more handsome than her fiancé Wang Anxu. Could it be that he was strong against her?

Probably not.

In fact, in the Daliang Dynasty, an old girl who was eighteen years old and had not yet married was already an old girl. Unfortunately, Wang Anxu lost his father three years ago and needed to be filial, which delayed the marriage. Wang Anxu was also a young talented man. He became a scholar in his teens and was still the head of the county.

In the previous marriages between the two families, the Mei family was the top gentry in the county, and Wang Anxu was both a high-ranking one.

But because of his identity as the head of the county's test case, he was destined to be mourning for three years and was stared at by many people.

Unexpectedly, the three-year mourning period was about to end.

Another Zhao State rose up and rebelled, swept across the provinces in a short time, and the gentry circle fled. This was... too suddenly.

Dr. Zhao listened to Mei Sanniang's but then she blushed and didn't know what to say. King Zhao smiled and said, "Don't worry, although you are pretty, I'm far from forcing a robbery girl."

"It was when I looked at you before, and I saw another disaster in your life that made you come to the city and want to talk to you."

At present, the original Nandu City was also gentry and officials fled all over the ground, and there were so many abandoned abandoned yards, which made many beggars and refugees cheaper.

Mei Sanniang widened her eyes, "I have a disaster in my life? What kind of disaster?"

King Zhao nodded, "You probably haven't been married yet, right? But with a engagement? This disaster comes from your fiancé..."

In order to climb up, he hugged a father-in-law who was stronger than the other and was killed by Wang Anxu.

This pit is more appropriate to jump out.

Mei Sanniang was stunned, and Xiaozhu jumped up in fear, "How do you know that the lady is engaged? Can you calculate this?"

Before this, they had lived in western Ganzhou, and had never been to Nandu, nor had they met Zhao Xueyan.

Even if you say something, you have an engagement but no marriage?

His Highness Zhao waved his hand and said, "If you continue to go north to find your family and husband, not only you, but your family may also be dragged to death by Wang Anxu."

"Also, this is a disaster in the original fate, and now the fate changes, it's even harder to say."

Mei Sanniang said dumbfoundedly, "What fate change?"

Dr. Zhao took a sip of wine, "The dynasties alternate, and the north is probably in chaos. You are so beautiful that you accidentally fell into the hands of bandits on the road and were stolen from being the wife of the village."

"Just just now, I fell into the water for no reason. Apart from you, the maid, will you save you?"

Mei Sanniang is not stupid, but is shocked, dizzy and random thoughts. She is also born in a scholarly family and understands one truth. In the alternating environment of dynasties, everyone knows that in the heavenly streets, the lives of people are not as good as grass in troubled times.

In the original trajectory, when she is killed by Wang Anxu in the next few years, she will become a painted ghost... Hasn't this happened yet?

Xiaozhu was also shocked and said, "Yes, Miss, we are separated from the master and the wife now, and the servants are not around... It's very dangerous."

The Mei family is a gentry in a county in western Gan. However, after leaving that county, it is just an inconspicuous and transparent circle of escaped gentry gathered in various provinces.

Otherwise, the ships that were booked by two gentry families would have been squeezed up by women from other counties, prefectures and even provincial gentry circles, which made Mei Sanniang need to squeeze into a small cabin with the maids of five or six gentry families.

After being stunned for dozens of seconds, Mei Sanniang smiled bitterly, "Thank you for your advice. With the grace of saving your life before, I can't repay you..."

Before he could finish his words, King Zhao waved his hand and said, "You can actually consider staying in Nandu. In the current state of Zhao, there is no restriction on women from participating in the civil service examination. You can try it. If you pass the exam and become a civil servant under the Zhao government, you will not easily encounter all kinds of messy things."

Mei Sanniang became trance again, "I'm going to take the civil service exam? This...this..."

She was born into a scholarly family and fled with many wealthy families. She also saw it along the way and heard too much news, but she knew what a civil servant was.
To be continued...
