Chapter 52: Worry (2nd Update, Asking for Support)
For the people of Jiangnan at this time, not only the people in Jiangnan, Jiangxi, Zhejiang, Fujian and Guangdong have changed into Han-style clothes, and even in Changsha and other places where they used to shave their hair is not as good as the style, there are also people who quietly keep their hair, at the beginning, they were just wearing Ming-style clothes in the house, but later they appeared on the street in their clothes, and even the mountains and rivers scarves that had to be cut off in the past were also worn on their heads. Compared with the temptation of the people in Changsha and other places, in Jiangxi, not only the people have already changed into the clothes of the Han family, but even the hair that has been shaved has almost grown, walking on the streets, there can still be the slightest trace of the enslavement of the Qing captives, if there is, I am afraid that it is the stone tablet outside the city of Nanchang, the stone tablet made of granite is engraved with an article recording the massacre of the Qing captives, of course, there is also a traitor tablet, which is engraved with the name and origin of the traitor from Jiangxi, and these two tablets are used to warn future generations.
The stele is located on both sides of the official road, only a mile away from the city, and the stele is built in a pavilion to avoid wind and rain. And on the side of this pavilion, there is a tea stall set up by an old man, the stall is not big, but it can be used by passers-by to rest and drink tea. Near noon, the multiplier rode along the official road, led by the elder dressed as an outsider, and the long-bearded man said when he saw the tea stall on the side of the road.
"Let's take a break here!"
Although he was only far from the city, this person was obviously not in a hurry, and after he jumped off the horse, he went directly to the stall, and then said.
"Tea."
For tea, this member didn't seem to have a request, just asked for a pot of the most ordinary tea, sat under the pergola of the tea stall, and when the old man served tea, the outside looked at the pavilion opposite and asked.
"Uncle, why are you doing business here, but not on the other side, there is a big tree there that can block the sun, it's better than you have a stall here."
There are several big trees next to the pavilion opposite, and the big trees are shady, and when the weather is hot, it is naturally better to do business there.
"It's a foreigner."
The old man said with a smile.
"Well, it's from out of town."
"Outside, look at this stele pavilion."
The old man pointed to the stele pavilion and said.
"The stele pavilion here is" Jiang Chang Ji Luo "said that the Qing Dynasty in the third year of Yongli "conquered the southern general" Tan Tai slaughtered the city, and remembered how the Qing captured how to kill 200,000 people in Nanchang, it can really be said that the words are crying blood, when the merchants passed by here, watching this article, all of them were crying silently. Often, they would buy some incense and sacrifice to the people who were killed. ”
The old man pointed to the paper ashes outside the pavilion, and then pointed to the paper money and incense candles next to the tea stall.
"If you are interested, you can also burn some paper money to keep you safe."
This man is so good at doing business, but he hasn't even left this business behind. The staff nodded slightly, and thought to himself in the bottom of his heart.
"What about the other side?"
"Opposite!"
I saw the old man shaking his head and sighing.
"I'm ashamed to see outsiders, the ones engraved on it are all traitors who live in Jiangxi, you say, good people are not appropriate, why do you just be the lackeys of the Tartars, don't they see how many Han people the Tartars have killed?"
When the old man spoke, he even spat indignantly in the direction of the stone tablet over there.
"The traitor monument is there, but anyone who is not ashamed to stay with the traitor monument, the old man, I just don't understand the world anymore, how can this world not understand?"
Looking at the old man's indignant appearance, he only listened to what the man said.
"If everyone doesn't look at the traitor monument, I'm afraid that this traitor monument will have no use in warning future generations."
His voice had just fallen, and he only heard the old man say.
"It's useless, who doesn't know, whose name is written on it, if there is a name of the same sect, I'm afraid I will have no face to see people long ago......"
For the old man's words, the staff just smiled slightly, and then looked at the traitor monument thoughtfully, then smiled and sighed, and then chatted with the old man while drinking tea. It's not about anything else, it's about this year's harvest and the lives of the people.
"Actually, in the final analysis, we Jiangxi people can have a peaceful birthday. It's still thanks to Zhang Shangshu,"
Chatting and chatting, the old man at the tea stall suddenly said with some sighs.
"Oh? Why is that? ”
"Outside, you have seen the world, you haven't seen it, this world is not where the army is rising, although the Northern Expedition to restore the Central Plains is good, but in the end it is not ordinary people who die, if you say Taiping, I am afraid that this world, that is, Jiangxi is Taiping, from Zhang Shangshu into Nanchang, it will stabilize the people, let the people recuperate, there have been soldiers......"
The old man didn't notice that his words fell into the ears of the outsider, which only made his face more and more difficult to look at, and even the entourage on the side became extremely rare.
"What nonsense are you talking about, old man!"
When the words of the entourage next to him fell, the old man sighed on the side.
"Hey, there is nonsense there, thanks to Zhang Shangshu's benevolence and righteousness, he knows the suffering of our Jiangxi people, so he doesn't raise troops, let us live a few years of peace, but in this way, I am afraid that the emperor will be unhappy, after all, Lord Shangshu has not raised troops for several years......"
"You ......"
Without waiting for the servant beside him to speak, the man stopped him and commanded.
"Alright, pay for the tea!"
With that, he jumped on his horse, and when he left the tea stall, his face still looked very ugly.
"Ministry, don't listen to that man's nonsense......"
This on the horse is the Ming Dynasty's military secretary Zhang Huangyan, who has been patrolling all over Jiangxi before returning to Nanchang. He listened to his subordinates, and before he could finish speaking, he shook his head and said.
"Zhang does have a negative emperor!"
After saying this, Zhang Huangyan's expression looked a little lost.
"I think that at the beginning, Zhang led more than 10,000 people into Jiangxi, but he recovered Jiangxi in more than a month, how good the situation was, but it was a pity that it was ...... later"
"Isn't it because Li Ziyuan's thief took away all the elite soldiers trained by the ministry that the ministry is powerless to take prisoners?"
Zhang Huangyan was just silent about his subordinates' answers, although several years had passed, Li Ziyuan's betrayal was still a thorn in his heart, making him feel a heartache every time he thought about it.
King Chu's Northern Expedition...... Originally, he Zhang Huangyan should have led the Northern Expedition and recovered the Central Plains, but Li Ziyuan's betrayal not only made him lose all the elite soldiers under his command, but even the Northern Expedition became a bubble - Jiujiang under the rule of Li Ziyuan, blocked the road of the Northern Expedition of his troops, and even, because of this, he had to temporarily put aside the mind of the Northern Expedition and concentrate on stabilizing the place.
"Chu Fan's Northern Expedition can be said to be a credit to Sheji, and now that Shenjing has recovered, Zhang can be regarded as living up to the imperial court......"
After the self-deprecating words came out of Zhang Huangyan's mouth, his face was still a little anxious.
"Ministry, but you're worried about the situation?"
As Zhang Huangyan's staff, Lu Liuliang asked tentatively after noticing the anxiety in his expression.
"Hmm!"
With a slight nod in his chin, Zhang Huangyan glanced into the distance, and then said.
"Now that the Northern Expedition has been successful, the situation in the world is like this, it really doesn't make people feel at ease!"
The situation in the world in his mouth naturally refers to the fact that the Huai, Chu, Fujian, and Jin feudal domains control the military power and wealth of the world, and unlike the other four feudal domains, Zhang Huangyan, who is the secretary of the military department, has always adhered to the courtier's courtesy, and when the four feudal domains opened the mansion, Zhang Huangyan did not open the mansion, and even until now, he is only the secretary of the military department of the Ming Dynasty, just the affairs of Jiangxi, but he is powerless to change the overall situation.
"The four feudal domains control the world's soldiers, horses, and wealth, and each has opened a government, so it is indeed not a blessing for the country."
Lu Liuliang's words were not loud, and they could only be heard by the two of them.
"However, from the point of view below, although the four feudal domains are strong, they are also holding each other back, if they can use means today, they must also be able to collect military power and wealth to the imperial court,"
"The key is to return to the Beijing division first, otherwise, you can't settle the world!"
After Zhang Huangyan said this, he looked to the north again, and then said.
"Earlier, I have repaired a letter to Chengren, asking him to wait for the recovery of the Jingshi, and send the court and the emperor to return to the Jingshi, thinking about it, he should have received the letter, but Chengren ......"
After a slight pause, Zhang Huangyan's mind once again appeared of the young man who almost died under his knife.
"Chengren's heart at this time is really unpredictable! After all......"
"After all, the Jingshi is the Chu Domain, so how can the Huai Domain be willing to give up the imperial court."
As a courtier of the Ming Dynasty, Lu Liuliang naturally stood on the side of the Ming court, and he had already complained about the opening of the four feudal domains, after all, in his opinion, this was not the blessing of the country, nor was it the blessing of the people. In particular, the Huai Fan also "coerced the Son of Heaven".
"Chengren is not that kind of person, just ......"
Zhang Huangyan, who categorically believed that Zhu Mingzhong would never control the imperial court, said it again when the words came to his lips.
"It's just that he doesn't necessarily want to see the imperial court in the hands of the Chu Domain, after all, Li Ziyuan ......"
Bad character!
Although he also knew that Li Ziyuan's character was extremely poor, and it was a blessing or a curse for him to control Jingshi, Zhang Huangyan did not know, but on the other hand, he knew that this was the best choice for Daming.
"Although Li Ziyuan's character has never been reliable, at present, it is always better for Jingshi to be controlled by him than for others, otherwise, the world cannot be stable......"
Zhang Huangyan, who is the secretary of the military department, knows very well that the four feudatories seem to be powerful, but in fact, they have always maintained a delicate balance, so that the imperial court has the opportunity to contain each other. It is precisely because of this that he does not need to worry about the four feudal feudatories, but on the other hand, now he has to consider another possibility - Zhu Mingzhong refuses the emperor to return to Beijing. If that's the case, then it's really unyielding!
Noticing the helplessness in the look of the ministry and the sigh that he wanted to make but didn't say, Lu Liuliang asked tentatively.
"Ministry, are you worried that Huaixin will not be subordinate?"
