Chapter 563: Exhausted
Further down the excavated path is a locked stone chamber filled with poppies harvested from the chrysanthemum garden, which have not yet had time to be refined. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
There is a stone house outside that serves as a kitchen, and there are all kinds of pots and pans inside, although it is simple, it is not easy for outsiders to notice. The innermost entrance is separated by a carved wooden door, on which are hung blue and yellow cloth curtains, and there are layers of Buddhist shrines and offering tables, and a few straw futons are placed.
In this place, Su Duran is ready to place the tablets of the ancestors of the past dynasties.
Everything was in order, and Su Guangfu praised a few good words. sat down on the rattan chair in the cave, and sighed heavily, telling the story of the ambush that went out of the city this time.
The patriarch was shocked when he heard this, for fear that there was a problem with the secret passage in Beijing, so he asked if there had been a mark left at the entrance.
Su Guangfu groaned: "I don't look like it, I made a few secret notes in the secret passage, and I saw that no one entered or left. Now it is difficult to walk through the city gates on all sides, and you can only count on this secret passage. Whether you succeed or not, you have to try again. ”
Su Guangfu always had a hunch that maybe he couldn't wait for Su Duhan's wings to grow, and the day when the Su family and Emperor Chongming would meet was approaching. This time, several contact points were connected, and the secrets of the Millennial Sect were revealed, and his true identity was revealed.
Together, the young and middle-aged naturally had to go into battle, but the poor women and children in the clan suffered with them. Everyone is the bloodline of the Great Zhou Dynasty, which has lasted for a hundred years to the present, and everyone must be carefully protected.
Out of the Yangzhou County Shou and Jiangyin Taishou, I don't know if Emperor Chongming has a backhand, but I am afraid that Cangnan and Zhengyang will also be blown by this wind, and several heads of the clan will discuss carefully in front of the case.
It is still necessary to take precautions, and the elders have decided to fight from tomorrow, and Su Duran will transport the old and weak women and children in the clan to Yuping Mountain one after another and hide in the cave.
The Su family has migrated several times over the years, and chose the Yuping Mountain generation to settle down fifty years ago, and originally intended to move to the Gusu Imperial City to expand the sphere of influence, but later by Su Rui's strong suppression, he extinguished this heart.
The clan is not allowed to buy a hundred acres of chrysanthemum orchards to make a living, and the external power is to return to the countryside. It was also Su Guangfu who developed several times and bred poppies that resembled daisies to collect money for the clan.
After several bumps and displacements, the older generation still has an impression, and they are not greedy for a comfortable life in the clan, and they are still willing to fight to the last breath for the sake of the Great Zhou Horse.
The younger generation has settled in Cangnan since birth, relying on the foundation laid by their ancestors, and has not suffered much. Especially those girls and daughters-in-law, their feelings for Da Zhou are not so far-reaching.
The news of avoiding the belly of Yuping Mountain spread in the Su family's old house late at night, and a little spark was like a phoenix, and there was a great tendency to set the prairie on fire.
Most people naturally follow the patriarch's arrangement and clean up the house early. There are also young girls like Hongfu and Fusang, who have lived in the Su family's old house for a long time, and can't see the world of red willows and green outside, they are already lonely and unbearable, and they are even more reluctant to bury their good fortune in the cave.
Dissatisfied to dissatisfied, as soon as the patriarch's order came out, the clansmen knew that their identity was secret, so they could only obey it.
Looking at the busy figure of his uncle and aunt packing up their things in the starry night, Hongfu sighed lightly. The sorrow overflowing in his eyes couldn't be hidden, so he simply accepted the embroidery work in his hand and slipped out of the back door to find Fusang to talk.
Su Guangfu and the others did not close their eyes almost all night, and they have been analyzing the situation in Jiangyin, and everyone reached a consensus, but the planning for many years has failed, and they all agreed to act in advance.
Su Duran said loudly: "What are you uncles hesitating about, since ancient times, you have become a king and a loser. I'd rather die for the Great Zhou Dynasty like Brother Duanyan did, rather than live secretly under the identity of a citizen of Xixia. ”
These words attracted several young people in the clan to echo casually, and all of them were enthusiastic.
Su Duyan failed to assassinate the Luo brothers and sisters that day, but folded in the hands of Qianlong Wei, who could not bear to be tortured to extract confessions, and personally admitted that this incident was committed by the Millennium Sect and the Su family. He was secretly imprisoned by the Hidden Dragon Guard, and now he is living secretly, but the people in the clan think that he is generous to righteousness.
Su Guangfu felt a wave of heat surging in his heart, tears almost burst out of his eyes, and he said angrily: "Dusk Ran is right, if we don't succeed, we will become benevolent, the eldest husband stands up to the sky, why is he afraid of life and death? I immediately contacted the Millennium Sect and rushed from Yunnan, Jiaozhou, Guangxi and other places to respond." ”
For now, the only way to do this is to contact Su Duhan as soon as possible, ask him to sneak into the border city quietly, and think of rebelling against some of Su Rui's old troops, and lead the army back to the Gusu Imperial City with the Su family buried in the border city.
Only with the participation of the regular army in the war, the chances of the Su family wanting to succeed will be greater. Rebelling everywhere at the same time, Emperor Chongming was bound to be difficult to deal with in a hurry. If Guo Shanggong is lucky, the empress dowager will have to shed her skin if she doesn't die, and her safety will make Empress Chu and others mess up, and the situation will be more favorable to herself.
Su Guangfu thought about it carefully, and the victory or defeat at this time was about five or five. If the border city strategy is effective, it will add several layers of protection. He felt that he should not do anything and personally accompany Su Duhan to the border city.
The only drawback is that there are now gates everywhere in the Qianlong Guard. The roads in various places are impassable, the Su family has 10,000 taels of gold but can't transport it, the money supply can't be supplied, and the grain and grass equipment will have to be stretched out.
While they were talking, a servant walked in with a carrier pigeon from outside, saying that it was the news that Su Duhan had just delivered.
When Su Guangfu opened it, his face swept away the solemnity of Fang Cai, like the beginning of a rainstorm, revealing a bright smile.
He handed the news to the patriarch and couldn't help laughing: "Our master should really have seven holes, and now we are worried about food and grass, but he grabbed a cash cow." ”
Compared with the gold that can't be shipped out and the poppies that can't be realized, the Liang family is a scattered boy from heaven.
The patriarch and everyone looked at the letter, and they were all overjoyed, and Su Guangfu was even more energetic.
Without further ado, Su Guangfu ordered the people to hastily prepare their own suits, regardless of the fatigue and danger of the journey, and prepared to set off at dawn and rushed to Wuxi immediately.
Before leaving, Su Guangfu went to the ancestral hall alone. He flipped the mechanism, and the tablets that were hidden deep in the ground and did not see the light of day slowly appeared in front of him.
Looking at the dragon pattern with colorful monuments on it, it seemed that the broken tiles of the Great Zhou Dynasty from golden splendor to beauty in the twilight flashed in front of him, Su Guangfu burst into tears and knelt down quietly.
Several rows of neat and solemn tablets were blown by the cold wind outside the window, and the sound was like a jackdaw crying blood, as if telling hundreds of years of sadness and pain.
Su Guangfu kowtowed heavily and said angrily: "If you go here, you must go to the soup." If you have the mercy of the ancestors, the master can seize the world in one fell swoop, and he will come back to welcome the tablets of the first emperors back to the palace. If the glory is lost, it can be regarded as seeking benevolence, and since then he has served the emperors underground, and he is still doing his best. ”
