Chapter 31: The Choice of Any Autumn

In the past few days, there have been a large number of people fleeing, and they have heard that a plague has broken out in the city of Neiqiu next door. Ren Qiu stood on the tower of the city, watching the ragged people enter the city, and a subordinate reminded him: "Master, do you see that these people should not let them in, in case they are sick?" Besides, if there are too many people in our city, we can't control them..."The voice seemed to be getting farther and farther away from him, and he didn't care, his eyes just followed these people, among them were farmers, dung pickers, merchants, scholars, and sellers. Unkempt and looks like he escaped overnight. Ren Qiu said to his subordinates: "There is no other place to make a living outside this city, and these people are not here to do evil, or to make a living, even so, there is no need to be too difficult for them." ”

"Master, someone came to the house to hand over a post, saying that it was your old friend and invited you to a tavern." The family came in a hurry and handed over the post, Ren Qiu didn't know what the plan was, took a few glances and didn't find the signature, although he was puzzled but didn't think much about it, he took the family to the tavern. When I arrived at the private room, I saw two people sitting there, and the wine and food did not move at all, presumably waiting for him. Ren Qiu walked in and found that he didn't know these two people, so he said loudly: "Ren was invited, I don't know who the two are?" Xu Yuan raised his head and smiled slightly: "Old man." Ren Qiu looked at his face, looked at it carefully, looked at it for a long time, and waved his hand at the family: "You go out first, and you are not allowed to come in without my orders." ”

Looking back at the two of them, he was no longer polite, sat down straight, and poured himself a large glass of wine, "Xu Yuan, you are really a young hero, you dare to come to my territory with one person, believe it or not, as soon as you set foot in this city, someone went to send a letter to Liu Huizu asking him to arrest you?" Xu Yuan shook his head: "Even the general is difficult to recognize Yuan, let alone other irrelevant people?" Ren Qiu stood up and looked out the window, "I had an old friend with your father when I was in the Northland, and when I heard that the Xu family had changed, I also felt very bad in my heart, and the loyal minister Liang General became a chaotic minister and thief overnight, but unfortunately I am soft-spoken, otherwise I must have to defend him... Anyway, if you don't talk about that, it must have been very hard for you to flee for many years, and if you want to settle here, I can help you. ”

Looking at him like this, it can be regarded as sincere, but even so, Xu Yuan still wants to test it further. "I am a family of military generals, with a very positive family style, and I am loyal to the monarch. Even at the last moment, my father knew that the emperor had murderous intentions, but he still told me to be loyal and patriotic. Isn't it the result of the instigation of traitors and ministers behind this? They are the ones who have pushed me to this point, and they ask the general to help me! Ren Qiu instantly understood that this kid in front of him, he didn't come to himself for a stable future, he came to find himself to overturn the case!

He picked up the glass in front of him and put it down, and sat down for a while. "Your case has been closed in the court, and if someone speaks lightly, you are looking down on it. The overturning of the case is a matter of great importance, Ren has an old man and a child with a general horn. Shu can't help you, if there is nothing else, Ren will leave first, there has been a plague in Yaoshan City recently, you still don't stay for a long time, leave as soon as possible, and seek help from others. ”

After finishing speaking, he turned around to leave, but Xu Yuan grabbed him when he saw this, "Xu didn't mean it, but he saw that this snow disaster and plague were rampant in the world, and people were dying of hunger and disease everywhere." This is God's anger at the emperor's lack of virtue, and he asked the general to help me, if he succeeds, the general can carry out his life's ambitions. The generals who defend a city and a country have already made a decision in their hearts. Under the nest, Ann has finished eggs? If the country is gone, how can the general defend this lonely city? The country is dying, the road also exists, and the general is also asked to observe the suffering of the people. Far away in the army, I know that the general loves soldiers like a son, full of military books, must not be a person without great ambitions, but here to be a lord of the city, the general's ambition is not to be the people of a state, a strong country in China. Now all nations are no longer coming to court, and national disasters are everywhere, but you live here in a quiet corner. Are you really willing? ”

Outside the window, people came and went very lively, and Ren Qiu took a wine glass and drank it all: "You have nothing to worry about, how do you know that Ren is in a difficult situation." It's better for you to point out the world with one mouth, Ren still has something, and he said goodbye, today's matter, I will treat you as if you haven't been here, please don't mention it in the future. Xu Yuan waved his hand: "Ren Mou thought about how much trouble he had on this trip, so he went to visit his home first, and picked up his wife and the little master to get together outside the city. Ren Qiu's expression was cold at that time, and he shouted loudly to the slave outside the door, but where was there a response, and his heart sank.

"Xu Yuan, I have no grievances with you, why do you want to be so cruel to my wife and children, trapping me in a place of disloyalty and filial piety? Why? You have taken a fancy to me, and there are 2,000 soldiers in the central district of Yaoshan City? You don't have to be naΓ―ve, Yaoshan is not my own decision, if you can turn back, Ren will definitely not be guilty of the past, and you will not be obsessed again! Xu Yuan was not in a hurry, he sat down and played with his wine glass, filled a glass and drank it all, "Don't you think there are a lot of refugees who have come to Yaoshan recently?" To tell you the truth, there are 500 of my elite soldiers in the city, turning into ordinary people, just waiting for an order. There were also 20,000 cavalry outside the city, pillow Godandan. General, I respect you for the sake of the country, do you really bear to see this Yaoshan corpses strewn all over the field because of your foolishness? ”

Ren Qiu was depressed: "The matter has come to this, you can take the talisman, but only one sentence, don't hurt my family, they didn't do anything wrong, the same is true for the people, Ren has no intention of rebelling, he is old, and he has no interest in changing the dynasty, please let me go." Zhao Qian, who had been watching coldly, spoke up: "Who said that there was a change of dynasty?" General, you don't dare to agree with what you said about Zhaoqian. Only then did Ren Qiu see this young man who had been sitting in the corner without making a sound.

"Who are you? Why do you also point fingers? Ren Qiu said coldly. I am the son of Prince Shen, the court is rampant, as a courtier, General Ren does not think about persuasion, but he is bent on protecting himself, if anyone is like you, then how can I have a way to live, is this God going to die Zhou? This is the death of the Zhou people themselves! "If it weren't for the vassal king's own traitor and disregard for the laws of the country, how could he be investigated and punished? Since you are the son of Prince Shen, how did you escape? Prince Shen has already committed suicide because of his disregard for the law of the country, how can there be a child who comes out, please don't take the identity of the clan as your own reliance. ”

Zhao Qian took a step forward and said, "My father did not commit suicide in fear of sin, he was lynched to death. Dare to ask the general, why didn't the prince tell the world if he broke the law? Why do you have to bury people in a hurry? In fact, this is not the tragic death of my father alone, in that house in Gyeonggi, dozens of clans have become prisoners and died there, why do the people of the country never know about these news? If you doubt my identity, you can check if there is such a person as Chai Zhaoqian. I escaped with nine deaths, not to survive in the world, I want to avenge the clan that died in vain and kill the traitors! The heavens are clear. If Chai Zhaoqian had a lie today, it would make me doomed. ”
