Chapter 371: Reunion (Part II)

From the beginning of speculating that his brother Qian Hong was not dead, Qian Yuan was wondering if his father Qian Rui would not die either.

From the first glance of walking into this room and seeing Qian Hong's back, this question swirled in Qian Yuan's mind.

The ingenious order of questioning and Qian Hong's reaction all confirmed that Qian Yuan's guess was correct.

Ancient Chinese feudal society emphasized filial piety to rule the world, and this concept has been deeply reflected in the heart of every Chinese, even hundreds of years later.

Qian Hongneng smuggled to Hangzhou several times to meet his wife and had a son, but he refused to reunite with his wife and children incognito, only because of his father Qian Rui.

After this mystery was solved, another mystery reappeared, why did my father refuse to leave?

"Four years ago, I went to Nanjing Township to try, I was in a coma for three days and was sent back to Huating, I remember that my brother received the news, from the city gate to carry me all the way home, my father was anxious, one day all over Songjiang Mansion, invited seven or eight famous doctors to come to the door, for which those doctors were very dissatisfied."

Qian Yuan turned his head to look at Qian Hong, "Blood dissolves in water, and I also have some hands, so it should be okay to answer my father." ”

"I can't go." Qian Hong lowered his voice, "I won't leave." ”

"Refuse to go......" Qian Yuan sighed, this is understandable.

After the death of the great-ancestor Qian Fu, the prince of Hetan, the people of Huating County commented that the prince of Hetan left three branches, and the essence was all returned to the young branch.

Not to mention that Qian Yuan and Qian Zheng are both two-list jinshi, choose Shu Jishi, even if Qian Rui was also a famous young talent in Huating back then, the first of the county examination case passed the government test, and the hospital test won the deputy list, and because he followed his grandfather Qian Fu to read the classics in Suzhou Wanjuanlou, he was knowledgeable.

Wanjuanlou was not very famous in later generations, but it was famous in the middle of the Ming Dynasty, Qian Fu also wrote "Wanjuanlou Ji" for it, the builder was Wucheng Xu, and the head of the Xu family at that time was Xu Jing who fell with Tang Yin.

It's a pity that the Qian family later had infighting, this branch was swept away, and his parents passed away one after another, Qian Rui gave up his studies and turned to business, supporting his wife and children, and supporting his younger brother Qian Zheng's business.

In general, although Qian Rui appeared as a businessman, deep down in his heart, he demanded himself by the standards of a scholar.

Qian Yuan pondered in his heart, maybe this was the reason why Qian Rui refused to leave...... He must have blood on his hands.

So, it's understandable that you don't want to go, but you can't go......

"Can't go...... Qian Yuan woke up from a long period of contemplation, raised his glass and said, "Father is at sea...... Captive? ”

"No, it's just that if he leaves, the movement is a bit loud." Qian Hong was a little frightened, he didn't expect that after four years, the ignorant little brother became so keen, and he could detect so much information from just a few words.

"The movement is a bit big...... "A flash of inspiration flashed in Qian Yuan's mind, he raised his head suddenly, and asked in disbelief: "Xu Hai's master Fang military division?!" ”

Qian Hong looked at Qian Yuan dumbfounded, unable to figure out how the other party guessed.

In fact, this is very simple for Qian Yuan, for this southeast rebellion, he heard a lot of familiar names from Tan Wei's mouth, but only Xu Hai's mastermind, this mysterious faceless Fang Junshi, was completely unimpressed in his previous life.

This time it was Qian Yuan's turn to be stunned, he just guessed casually, he was really the military advisor!

It is said that the process of history has both inevitability and contingency, and sometimes at a certain critical point, one person can deviate the course of history.

After meeting Tan Wei before, Qian Yuan was still thinking that no matter what, the appearance of this Fang military division had shifted history and left time for the southeast coast to prepare for the war.

But Qian Yuan couldn't have imagined that key person...... In the final analysis, it's because of myself as a traverser.

If there is no Qian Yuan, Qian Rui, Qian Hong's father and son will probably not go to Ligang, they will not become Japanese criminals, and it is difficult to say whether they will die unexpectedly, but they should just go with the flow in the southeast in the next ten years.

It is precisely because of Qian Yuan's crossing that Qian Rui and Qian Hong were caught in this storm that swept the southeast, obviously, Qian Hong aside, Qian Rui must have played a key role.

After sorting out his thoughts, Qian Yuan began to interrogate carefully.

"Yes, it was my father who privately instigated Xu Hai and Wang Zhi to go to war." Qian Hong hesitated, couldn't help but look back at the closed door, and then lowered his voice and said, "Actually, my father and Wang Zhi are secretly in contact. ”

"Oh?" Qian Yuan's spirits perked up, "Father wants to borrow a knife to kill people?" ”

"No, my father wants them to die together." Qian Hong whispered a few secret things, "It was because of his father's secret news that Wang Zhi was able to suppress Xu Hai, but seeing Xu Hai's defeat, his father gave him advice......"

"Ye Zongman's ...... thing"

"How do you know about Ye Zongman and Xu Hai's alliance?" Qian Hong was surprised, this matter is not a secret, but the people who know the inside story are very limited, "Indeed, this matter is also done by my father." ”

Qian Yuan got up and paced a few steps, shook his head and said, "It's impossible to end up together, even if Xu Hai and Wang Zhi are dead, there will be the next Xu Hai and the next Wang Zhi." ”

"From the current point of view, kill Xu Hai and stay Wang Zhi." Qian Yuan pressed Qian Hong's shoulder, "Xu Hai is going to invade the coast?" ”

"How do you know everything?" Qian Hong stared at Qian Yuan with a frown, and only nodded after half a ring, "That's why I took the risk to come to Huangyan County and asked my mother to leave quickly." ”

Qian Yuan's eyes were blazing, and the right hand that was holding Qian Hong's shoulder became harder and harder, "Where did Xu Hai choose?" ”

"I don't know." Qian Hong shook his head, "Father suggested Shaoxing, but Xu Hai was noncommittal, in fact, Xu Hai didn't have a clear goal every time he went to battle...... Thinking of where to fight, Wang Zhi suffered a lot of losses. ”

Qian Yuan was stunned for a while, let go of his hand and sighed: "I don't know the specific location...... There is no targeted deployment of troops......"

Qian Hong looked at his younger brother's expression cautiously, and said softly: "Little brother, don't blame your father...... More than two years ago, my father advised Xu Hai many times, but the Japanese invaded Songjiang Mansion on a large scale, and later instigated the Japanese to fight among themselves. ”

"My father went all the way from Songjiang to Jiaxing, and then to Huzhou, Changzhou, and Suzhou...... There are corpses everywhere, the village is deserted, my father can't sleep at night, and when Zhapu in Pinghu County is about to leave the sea, my father's hair is mixed with silver threads......"

"The night I heard that you were a Jinshi, my father was drunk and said that we would never see each other again in this life, and there would be no thief in the Songjiang Qian family......"

Qian Hong said in a low tone, "At first, my father wanted to recover from his injuries and find a chance to escape back to Huating, but after that, Xu Hai took a fancy to his father and took care of him, and his father refused to commit suicide by throwing himself into the water several times from the thief......"

"But I know that Xu Hai has a plan to invade Songjiang, and I am afraid that my mother and you will ...... persuaded Xu Hai to attack Jiaxing instead, and on the way back, he shook a shot and didn't pass through Songjiang" Qian Hong glanced at Qian Yuan, "After that, he made up his mind that his hands were stained with blood and he couldn't turn back, so he would instigate Wang Zhi Xu Hai to go to war.

Qian Yuan listened quietly, listening to his brother narrate the experience of the past few years in a chaotic tone, his father, as Xu Hai's mastermind, lived in a simple house and rarely showed up, and was very trusted by Xu Hai, his brother was barely a small leader, he only guarded his father on weekdays, and only occasionally participated in wars.

Qian Yuan put a question mark in his heart, although his brother Qian Hong rarely gave up his career to do business with his father, he was tall, strong and powerful, and burly, but he couldn't use fists and feet, let alone use knives and guns.

But whether it is in Zhang San's description or Qian Hong's previous unconvinced words, it shows that Qian Hong has been fighting one after another over the years.

"In this case, my father and brother will not come back." Qian Yuan thought in his heart, "If you can make a contribution to the extermination of the Japanese bandits, you may not be able to clear the ......."

"I can't come back." Qian Hong sighed, how many people's blood had been stained on his hands over the years, and it was the first time he raised a knife to kill someone...... The face of the distorted Xiang Yong still appears in dreams from time to time.

My father couldn't go back, although he didn't do it himself...... But in order to prevent Songjiang Mansion from being invaded, how many innocent people's lives disappeared in his words, if he hadn't seen Xu Hai give the head, I am afraid that he would have committed suicide by throwing himself into the sea.
