Soon, Liu Ru found a reason to get off the boat, and then sent Xiaohuan and Xiaoyu back to Luo Yitang, and Han Lin and Han Lin went around Xuanwu Lake while admiring the lake and mountains, while indulging in talking about current affairs, of course, poetry was not among the discussions.

Han Lin came from later generations, and he already had a clear context of the development of history, and he set up an intelligence battalion when he was training troops in Guangdong, so he knew at least a thing or two about the situation in various places. He used that information when he was taking the test in Luo Yitang before, otherwise how could Han Lin even make it clear the specific time when North Korea surrendered to Huang Taiji.

So every time he talks about a problem, Han Lin can find another way, at the beginning, Liu Ru was often puzzled, and even kept arguing with Han Lin, but he was soon persuaded by Han Lin, and after thinking about it, he admired Han Lin more and more.

In the blink of an eye, the sun began to sink in the west, and the sky was getting darker, Han Lin reluctantly separated from Liu Ru and returned to the inn.

As soon as he came back, Wang Fuzhi came up and asked, "Brother Han, how is Liu Ru?" Have you had a great time? ”

Han Lin was very speechless, how did this guy become so gossipy, and he could only prevaricate a few words casually: "That's naturally excellent, but I was almost spoiled by an annoying fly." ”

"Annoying flies?"

"A poet surnamed Cao, I don't remember what it is, I don't know where I learned about the dispute with Qian Qianyi in Luo Yitang a few days ago, and wanted to borrow me to curry favor with Qian Qianyi," Han Lin shook his head, "This person, you have to be self-aware." ”

Han Lin saw that Wang Fuzhi was about to break the casserole and ask the end, so he hurriedly said: "Okay, Brother Wang, I'm going to have dinner, I'm starving, and I have an appointment with Liu Ru tomorrow." ”

Wang Fuzhi gave Han Lin a "I understand" look, and then returned to his room, leaving the latter with a wry smile.

……

Happy days are always short-lived, Han Lin has been in Jinling for more than a month, and his relationship with Liu Ruyi is getting closer and closer, and his relationship is heating up rapidly, which can be regarded as falling into a gentle township, but a sudden news directly blinded him.

Zhang Xianzhong re-raised the banner of righteousness in Gucheng. The rebels quickly defeated the garrison Gucheng officers, killed the county commander Ruan Zhitian and the patrol Yu Shi Lin Mingqiu, demolished the city walls, and robbed the treasury and imprisoned them. Zhang Dajing, Ma Tingbao and Xu Qizuo were forced to surrender. When Zhang Xianzhong left Gucheng, he wrote in detail the list, number and time of the bribes demanded from officials of all sizes in the government on the walls inside and outside the city, so that the people could see clearly the corruption of the politics of the Ming Dynasty.

When Zhang Xianzhong rose again, Luo Rucai and Ma Shouying also responded, and went to Gucheng to meet Zhang Xianzhong. Li Zicheng, who was hidden in the Shangluo Mountains, also regrouped and entered Henan through the Yun and Jun regions of Hubei. The flames of the peasant uprising once again raged on the land of the Central Plains.

When Xiong Wencan learned of the resurgence of the rebels, he immediately transferred Zuo Liangyu and Luo Dai to lead the troops to pursue and suppress them. Zhang Xianzhong ambushed the army in Luo Monkey Mountain west of Fang County, set up a net, and sent a team to feint defeat and retreat, lure the official army into the mountain, ambush the siege, more than 10,000 officers and soldiers were all scattered, Luo Dai was captured alive, Zuo Liangyu lost his armor, fled in ambush, and even the military seal letter was lost. Emperor Chongzhen was furious, removed Xiong Wencan's post and arrested him; Zuo Liangyu was demoted to three levels, and he made meritorious service with the army. Then, Yang Sichang, a scholar and secretary of the military department, was reassigned to supervise the division, and the governor below listened to moderation, and once again launched a large-scale encirclement and suppression of the peasant army.

Why didn't this Xianzhong play his cards according to the routine, and he rebelled again after only a few months of surrender. While Han Lin complained, he also understood that because of his arrival, history had changed, and he had to plan early.

The day after getting the news, Han Lin went to Luo Yitang and met Liu Ruyi.

"If so, I got the news that Zhang Xianzhong of Gucheng has revolted again, and the momentum is fierce, how about you go south to Guangdong with me?" Han Lin held Liu Ruyi's Rouyi and sincerely promised: "On another day, I, Han Lin, will marry you as a wife!" ”

Liu Ru's pretty face was like a red apple, she had always cared about the world's major affairs at this time, she completely ignored the uprising, full of joy, and responded like a mosquito: "Hmm! ”

Return to the inn.

"Brother Gu, return to brother, the two of you will leave it alone, these silver taels will be left to the two of you, and this handwritten letter from me. My previous promise always counts, and I hope to see you again in Guangzhou. ”

Han Lin and the three of them said goodbye to Gu Jiang and returned to Zhuang, the latter still wanted to participate in another scientific expedition, but history has quietly changed, whether they have this opportunity, or even whether they can survive in the chaos, is unknown.

Han Lin was three, Liu Ru was three, and the two carriages traveled all the way from Jinling back to Guangzhou.

Han Mansion, Zhao Yu was full of sadness, and complained to Han Duan: "It's all you, you promised to let Lin'er go out, now there are wars everywhere, in case there are three long and two short, how can I live!" ”

"A woman's opinion." Although Han Duan was also worried about Han Lin's safety, he didn't show it.

Just as Zhao Yu was about to drop tears, a little guy hurriedly ran over, "Master, madam, young master, young master... It's back. ”

Zhao Yu thought that something had happened to Han Lin at first, and his heart was raised to his throat, and when the little guy finished speaking, he hurriedly ran to see Han Lin, leaving Han Duan to laugh and scold: "What are you talking and panting." ”

Han Lin met Han Duan and Zhao Yu in the hall. As soon as Zhao Yu came up, he hugged Han Lin, almost wanting to rip off the latter's clothes to see if there were any injuries, which made Han Lin very embarrassed.

Han Lin noticed that Han Duan kept looking at Wang Fuzhi, Liu Rushi and others, so he took the opportunity to break away from Zhao Yu's embrace and said, "Dad, mother, this time I rushed back as soon as I heard the news of Zhang Xianzhong's uprising again, and I had a safe journey, don't worry."

These are all people I got acquainted with on this trip, this is my friend Wang Fuzhi, this is my confidante Liu Ruyi, and these two are her two maids. ”

"I've seen my uncle and aunt."

"I've seen Master Han, Mrs. Han."

"You don't have to be polite, just treat this as your own home."

Wang Fuzhi and others greeted Han Duan and Zhao Yu, but Han Lin obviously felt that his father's attitude was not quite right, especially for Liu Ru.

Han Lin instantly understood, Wang Fuzhi was just that, Liu Ru was a woman, and took two maids to follow Han Lin, who had just met, to the latter's house, what kind of system did he become in the Ming Dynasty? Not to mention that everyone is beautiful, even ordinary women will not do this. So in addition to that, what is Liu Ru's identity?

In history, Qian Qianyi's marriage to Liu Ru is said to be an old cow eating tender grass and envying others, but he was also full of white eyes and constant criticism, and in this regard, he was also commendable.

Han Lin saw that Liu Ru's face became unnatural, and hurriedly said, "Daddy, I'll go and arrange for them to stay first, and then I'll talk to you in detail when I get back." ”

Out of the house, Han Lin looked at Liu Rus: "If so, don't worry, I will definitely convince my father." And even if they don't agree, I'll marry you, trust me. ”

"I believe it." Liu Ru's eyes were slightly red.

"If so, and Brother Wang, how about you stay next to my room?" Han Lin asked for advice as he walked.

"Everything is up to Brother Han's arrangement." Wang Fuzhi is very conscious, he has always kept his eyes open, and he does not disturb Han Lin and Liu Rus.

Liu Ru naturally has no opinion.

"Yilong, go and call Han Yuan over so that he can make arrangements." Han Yuan is the big housekeeper of the Han Mansion, he is close to the age of six, and has been working in the Han Mansion for more than 40 years, and the family is working in the Han Mansion, and he has been given the surname Han, and he has always been steady and meticulous in his work.

At dinner time, Han Lin instructed his subordinates to send the food to Wang Fuzhi and Liu Rushi's room, and he dined with Han Duan and Zhao Yu and accepted the "interrogation" of the two.

"Lin'er, tell my mother honestly, what is the identity of those people?" Zhao Yu raised the elder's shelf and asked, while Han Duan looked at Han Lin quietly and put pressure on the latter.

Han Lin knew that what the two really wanted to ask was Liu Ruyi, so he casually mentioned that Wang Fuzhi was a member of the Wang family in Huguang Hengzhou Mansion, and then did not shy away from explaining that Liu Rushi was a famous prostitute in Qinhuai, and told the two of them about the process of acquaintance, acquaintance and love.

Han Lin looked at the two of them with pale faces, and declared categorically: "Father, mother, you don't need to persuade me, Liu Ru is I have to marry!" ”

"What do you know!" Han Duan slapped the table with his big hand and stood up, "Do you think that my opposition with your mother is just because of that woman's background?" ”

"Huh?" Han Lin really didn't understand what else the reason was.

"From more than two years ago, to now, you have trained the self-improvement army, plus other things, you have a good idea of how much money you have spent, right? That's hundreds of thousands of taels of silver! Our Han family can't even take out a fraction, it's all from your mother's family. Although your grandfather loves your mother and you, it is impossible to come up with hundreds of thousands of taels of silver because of this, not to mention that the Zhao family is not his old man alone, and there are so many people and interests involved! Han Duan paused, and continued with hatred, "This is an investment, an investment in our Han family, in you, do you know!?"

As early as two years ago, my grandfather and I talked about your life's events, your grandfather's second brother, that is, your second grandfather's knees, has a granddaughter, who is now twenty-eight years old. During the time you went out, our family has decided to let you get married as soon as possible. ”

Han Lin was stunned, he didn't know anything about such a thing, but he quickly came back to his senses: "Dad, I knew the importance of money when I first started training, so at the beginning of the reorganization of the guard, a wealthy company was set up, and later developed into a regiment of more than 2,000 people specializing in the development of commerce and trade to make money. As long as we grit our teeth and develop for a while, we can fully meet the demand. ”

Han Duan didn't expect Han Lin to be so thoughtful, and he hadn't heard the latter mention it before, but he still slapped Han Lin on the head: "Look at what you said, how to calculate the funding you received before, is my Han family going to be ungrateful!" ”

In fact, Han Duan still had some things that he didn't say clearly, if the Zhao family obstructed Han Lin's operation of the Fortune Seeking Group, what would the latter use to resist?

"Dad, mother, since I promised to take Liu Ru as my wife, I will never break my word. It's a big deal to drag it down, until I no longer look up to people and can say anything, I see who can still control me! Han Lin said solemnly, "Marrying the granddaughter of my second grandfather to me is just a marriage, even if I don't have this relationship, I will never forget my grandfather's kindness." What's more, isn't there still a mother, no matter how you look at it, I can't be a villain! ”

Han Duan and Zhao Yu glanced at each other, the former sat back in place silently, and the latter smiled helplessly: "Why did I give birth to you what a little rabbit cub." ”
