Chapter 246: I don't want to pick up the long tassel

Ma Wannian's gaze was on a few white clouds in the sky, once upon a time, looking at the sky and counting clouds has always been his habit.

"You said that Shangzhu is most afraid of war?" Tianlang was shocked after hearing this.

"When Wannian was three years old, his mother died in Henan, and when he was twelve years old, his father died in Xiangyang, and he was raised by his grandmother since he was a child.

In the eyes of others, my grandmother is like a god of war, and for ten thousand years, she is the most loving old man in the world.

Taught me the art of literature and martial arts with her own hands, but she didn't want me to die on the battlefield, she said that if I should die on the battlefield, she would never regret it, but it should be the moment when the Ming Dynasty reached the end of its survival.

If it weren't for that moment, she would have hoped that the martial arts I had learned would never be useful. ”

An old man, guarding a toddler, babbling child, relatives died on the battlefield one after another, and children are the last blood left by her and her deceased husband.

She taught the child to read and write, to hold a gun, to ride a horse and shoot an archery, but what she hoped most was that the child would always be healthy and wear the pair of socks and clothes she had sewn for him.

Gradually, liking weaving has become the obsession of a female general, she actually doesn't want to pick up the long tassel, she just wants to hold an embroidery needle forever.

In life, some people's hobbies are innate, such as the Emperor of the Apocalypse of the Ming Dynasty, who likes to do carpenter work very much.

In fact, in Qin Liangyu's heart, not counting Emperor Longwu and Emperor Yongli, among the four generations of emperors she has assisted in her life, Emperor Tianqi is the most optimistic about her, and he is also the most reliable foundation for mutual trust.

Don't look at the Emperor of the Apocalypse who is illiterate, but he can be said to be very attentive to the famous ministers and generals under his command, and he has never killed and punished the ministers of the humerus like Chongzhen.

In fact, even for an emperor, it is actually very good to have a craft, and it will save a lot of silver.

For example, in the Apocalypse Dynasty, the rewards for ministers were generally not gold and silver, and most of the rewards that needed to be rewarded with large sums of gold and silver were replaced by a set of imperial furniture.

Emperor Tianqi's preference for carpentry work has become an obsession, and he felt that he was not suitable for dealing with court affairs, so he found Wei Zhongxian, a person with shortcomings but strong ability, to help him deal with it.

Unlike Chongzhen, even if he doesn't know how to do things and is frizzy, he still likes to be rigid and arbitrary.

These are probably obsessions, right?

And Qin Liangyu's love of needlework is also an obsession, and this obsession is her yearning for peace.

Ma Wannian continued to say lightly: "However, when the Ming Dynasty really reached the last moment of survival, my grandmother was shocked to find that she had not been summoned by the imperial court.

My grandmother laughed at herself at the time, telling us that it was not that the emperor had forgotten her as a weak old woman, but that the communication had been blocked, and the imperial court's edict of King Qin could not come at all.

But although there was no edict, my grandmother still led the Shizhu Army alone, and fought more than a dozen battles with Luo Rucai and Zhang Xianzhong, and of course I knew that Emperor Chongzhen should not have forgotten to summon my grandmother. ”

Tianlang felt a little sad in his heart, it was Chongzhen's little calculation that left Qin Liangyu's brothers, nephews and even daughters-in-law, and sent the old woman who he thought was not worth mentioning home.

He was finally given command of the Shizhu Army, including the 27,000 Shizhu Army squandered by Yang Sichang and the governor of Sichuan when they used a ten-sided net to encircle and suppress Zhang Xianzhong.

But the Ma family and the Qin family were full of loyalty, and in the end only two disabilities went back.

Ma Wannian didn't know Tianlang's mood at this time, and said to himself, talking about Tianlang's summoning of Qin Liangyu into the court:

"So many people don't understand it, but my cousin and I, as well as my four uncles, understand my grandmother the most.

When Banzai sent people all the way to summon her grandmother to King Qin in Guangxi, how happy she was in her heart.

Except for us, no one really understands the throbbing in her heart when she receives the edict.

So Wannian is really grateful to you, it is your call that allows my grandmother to rediscover the meaning of her life in the rest of her life.

Although my grandmother was a woman, she was born a warrior, and if there was no peace in the world, she would not be willing to take off her armor until she died. ”

The waves are silent, and the silence is a shock that is unforgettable.

Tianlang has always only thought about which one of the warriors he needs to turn the tide of the dynasty and rise and fall.

He even felt a little guilty about summoning Qin Liangyu, after all, the female military god was already very old.

But he forgot the allusion of 'Lian Po is old', and he didn't even try to understand why Lian Po would rather support himself to death, but also show that he was still beaten in front of the people who came from the court to prove that he was okay.

Just like what Emperor Tianqi said in an edict for Qin Liangyu: The minister of civil and military affairs must treat Qin Liangyu with courtesy and no suspicion.

Why did the Emperor of the Apocalypse issue this edict?

It was Qin Liangyu and he who both discovered that there was a lack of trust between their monarchs and ministers.

I'm afraid that outside of Zhu Youxiao, from Wanli, Taichang to Chongzhen, the imperial court has not given much trust to the female military god, otherwise the supervisor of the Songjin decisive battle will not be Hong Chengchou who cherishes feathers, isn't it?

Why did King Zhao send people to observe Lian Po?

It is also a matter of trust between monarchs and ministers.

Even scheming latecomers will think that Lian Po is desperately eating in front of the envoy and is racing his acting skills.

Eating desperately is showing that you have a strong desire to fight, and this way makes people look clumsy and unpleasant.

obviously exposes the unbearable responsibility of his age, this is not that Lian Po is stupid, but Lian Po's scheming is too deep.

This line of thinking may be very detouring, but this kind of speculation that Lian Po does not want to fight, and he pretends to ask for war, is obviously unreliable.

After all, people who think this way do not think about things from the perspective of a famous general who has made great achievements in his life.

"Banzai hasn't been to Jingshi, have you?" Ma Wannian suddenly asked about this.

Tianlang just wanted to nod, but quickly shook his head.

"Long live I haven't been to Jingshi, and the minister hasn't been to either, but my grandmother has been to Jingshi, Tianqi and Chongzhen dynasties, and she has also defended Shanhaiguan and Jingshi for several years.

Every time she thinks of the past, the old man will always say that she didn't leave anything for Daming in her life, but left more than a dozen place names called cotton alleys for the imperial city of Daming. ”

Ma Wannian said this, Tianlang really knew, he still remembered that in later generations, there was a person who walked through the Sichuan battalion of the Xuanwumen generation in the capital, and heard about Qin Liangyu's various deeds of Yan Ming and Qiu, who were guarding the Beijing Division.

The man looked up at the gate of the station, and the gate was engraved with twelve big characters "Qin Shaobao Garrison Site, a great woman in the Shu world".

After a lot of emotion, he left a poem in his hand:

The golden seal was passed on to the third general, and the embroidered flag was engraved to recognize the Sichuan battalion. So far, the autumn rain and autumn wind night, the faint sound of cymbals and miscellaneous spinning.

The last line of this poem comes from the spread of the people near Xuanwumen, saying that after Qin Liangyu and Shizhu Junba left the camp, they would always hear the sound of spinning yarn in the cotton alley at night.
