55 very meaningful things
"Who dares to speak like that?" When Luo Yangxing heard this, he was immediately annoyed.
His subordinates were also angry, but one of them recognized Xu Yunchao, so he hurriedly said, "My lord, that's the steward of Jiadingbo's mansion." ”
Hearing this, Luo Yangxing was slightly stunned, but then he was overjoyed, and said with a smile: "Hehe, it seems that Jiading Bofu and Li Ruolian have a conflict, okay, look at it like this, this conflict is good!" ”
As the commander of the Jinyi Guard, although he usually does not do much, he also understands the situation of the civil and military officials of the Beijing Division, and the royal family and nobles. He was sure that the people of Jiading Bofu seemed to have suffered a big loss, and they would definitely not give up!
Now in Jingshi, can openly shout such words, it is really only the people in Jiadingbo's Mansion who dare to shout like this, who let the queen and the prince be there!
Originally, Luo Yangxing was still thinking about whether to instigate the people in Jiadingbo's mansion to have a conflict with the person from a strange background to test it. As a result, they didn't have to do anything, and they themselves were already in conflict.
So, although Xu Yunchao shouted that it was not Jinyiwei's turn to be arrogant, Luo Yangxing listened very well.
"Be careful, don't let them find out." Luo Yangxing confessed, and made up his mind that he wanted to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight.
On the side of the city gate cave, as soon as Xu Yunchao and the others ran, the tall man hurriedly turned around, knelt down and kowtowed to Zhang Mingwei and said: "Thank you for the grace of Engong to relieve the siege, the villain Liu Jin will not forget it!" ”
Zhang Mingwei saw the scene just now from beginning to end, and after careful observation, he knew it in his heart.
This man named Liu Jin sold his son and daughter because his family had been hungry for several days, and his mother was sick and feverish.
It seems that it is not good for his children, and even for his wife. However, when he was about to be beaten just now, he protected his wife and children, and would rather he be beaten himself. It can be seen that he is not really emotionless for his wife and children, but he is really forced to do so.
Another point, when those guards came to threaten him just now, he immediately stepped forward and wanted to take the matter back, and he can be regarded as a person who dares to act.
Of course, there is also a possibility, which is that he understands that if he dares to come forward, he must rely on it, and if he does so, he will definitely win his favor.
But even so, it only shows that this person's brain is flexible. Including gratitude at this time, it can also show that he is either sincere, or it is more proof that he has a flexible brain.
Thinking so, Zhang Mingwei showed a smile and said, "Get up and talk!" ”
When Liu Jin heard this, he didn't insist, so he stood up as he said.
Zhang Mingwei turned his head to look at the old man, women and children on the other side of the city gate, then turned his head, looked at him and said: "Manly man, no matter what, you must protect your family." You have to remember! ”
After finishing speaking, he turned his head to look at Zhu Yujiao and said, "Give him ten taels of silver!" ”
Ten taels of silver is almost a year's income as a soldier, and even because of the officer's deduction or something, in fact, ordinary soldiers may not be able to get ten taels a year.
At this time, although the price of grain has risen to one or two and a half yuan to buy a stone of grain because of the news of the defeat of Matsuyama, I don't know how cheap it is in other aspects. For example, Liu Jin sells his sons and daughters, and his pair of children look quite cute, but they can only exchange for a bucket of grain, which is almost a penny and a half cents of silver.
When Zhu Yujiao heard this, she didn't have any concept of money, and she was happy to give it in her heart, so she immediately agreed, then took out the bag, took out a piece of ten taels of official silver, and threw it to Liu Jin, and at the same time advised: "Be kind to your family, don't sell them anymore!" ”
I don't know why, Liu Jin, who was beaten and scolded just now, and even when he sold his sons and daughters, he didn't have a good time, after hearing the words of Zhang Mingwei and Zhu Yujiao at this time, the tiger burst into tears, and fell to his knees again, straightened his upper body and choked slightly: "Live the kindness of my whole family, I Liu Jin swear, I will definitely repay it!" ”
The old man on the other side of the city gate cave, supported by her daughter-in-law and grandchildren, also hurried over, knelt down, and said with tears: "Grace is above, great kindness, there is no way to repay it!" ”
Speaking of this, the old man hurriedly instructed her grandchildren: "Come, kowtow, quickly kowtow to our family's life-saving benefactor!" ”
Her grandchildren were very well-behaved, and immediately kowtowed to her words.
This scene, although Zhang Mingwei has seen it in movies and television. However, at this time, he personally felt it, and to be honest, he felt very shocked, far from being comparable to the feeling when watching movies and television. Even more shocking than when Lan Tianbao was a family.
The history books describe the time of the disaster, but only a few words: sell children and daughters, change children and eat, as if the feeling is just like that. But these eight words, falling on every family, are life and death parting, a real human tragedy.
For themselves, what happened just now is just a matter of doing it within the scope of their ability, but for their family, they can live their lives, and the family is not separated, which is a big thing.
If it was said that in the past, Zhang Mingwei wanted to prosper the Ming Dynasty and let China always stand on top of the world, which was based on a kind of patriotic feelings, at this moment, he really felt that he was doing a very meaningful thing.
Zhongxing Daming, turning the tide and saving the people from fire and water, this is by no means an empty imagination, but a real merit!
At this time, the woman looked at her mother-in-law, then at her children and men, suddenly turned her head, kowtowed to Zhang Mingwei and said, "I beg Engong to take us in, my mother-in-law and I are good at laundry and cooking." My man is a hunter, this army is in chaos, he can escort our family from his hometown to Jingshi, his skills are really good, and many thieves want to pull my man into the gang without agreeing. My man can, and he will definitely be able to serve Eun Gong. We don't want to be paid, so let's have a chance to repay our kindness! ”
Liu Jin was stunned for a moment when he heard this, then came back to his senses, hurriedly presented the ingot of silver with both hands, and said earnestly: "The insider is right, the grace of Engong to save his life, to preserve the virtue of my family, let us repay Engong!" Just now, the villain was hungry for several days and had no strength, and second, he didn't dare to be ruthless to them, otherwise one person would be able to deal with the few just now. Please also grace the princess to fulfill us! ”
Zhu Yujiao had the best impression of that woman, and when she saw that the two children were looking up in anticipation, she wanted to agree. However, at this time, she was reminded by Xu Yunchao that she remembered her identity as a maid, so she didn't speak, but just looked at Mr. with the same expectation.
Zhang Mingwei glanced at the family in front of him, turned over and dismounted unfamiliarly, came to the old man, and helped her up first, feeling that he was indeed feverish. Then he glanced at Liu Jin and his daughter-in-law, then looked at his pair of children, and finally nodded and said, "Okay, I agreed." ”
After finishing speaking, he turned his head to look at Wang Erbiao and ordered: "You take them back to the house, and immediately ask Lang Zhong to treat the old man's illness." ”
Yes, I took in another family! Wang Erbiao thought in his heart, but he didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly agreed. However, he still reminded Zhang Mingwei: "Sir, the imperial court has a soup kitchen outside the city. ”
Zhang Mingwei's attitude was there, and he didn't dare to say more, lest Zhang Mingwei be unhappy. But this sentence is enough, which shows that the family is actually not so sincere.
To tell the truth, after Wang Erbiao originally proposed that the maid who hired the guarantor of Jingshi was rejected, he had reservations about Zhang Mingwei's continuous promise to take in refugees.
From his point of view, he always felt that the refugees who came to Beijing were all unreliable people.
But who knows, it's okay that he didn't mention this, but as soon as he mentioned this, he saw Liu Jin's face change immediately.
