Chapter 10 Borrowing Grain
Everyone in the hall saw that Hou Huang was so famous, and this little lady with eyes above the top knew that everyone had honor.
Hong Yixun chanted the Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable, jumped out and pointed at Hou Xuanyan and said, "That's right, this is Lord Hou's eldest son, our Young Master Hou Xuanyan." ”
Oh? Since it is a martyr, please forgive the little woman for being rude. If you really don't have enough, you don't have to give it to us, we..."
The two maids behind her shouted in unison: "Miss...", the girl frowned when she heard the words of the two maids, biting her lip and being cute.
Hou Xuanyan watched coldly, this little girl's demeanor is probably pretended. If it was really so cold, it was impossible for the maid to dare to scold her in a hurry.
After thinking about it carefully, I was relieved, walking in troubled times now, if you are too kind, you will definitely be bullied.
After figuring it out, Hou Xuanyan immediately waved his hand and said: "Manly man, the water spilled by the words he said, our Jiading boys count." Uncle Yang, go get two bags of rice. ”
Yang Shu nodded, he stayed on the car full of treasures, and instructed the people around him a few words before jumping out of the car and going to get rice. Hou Xuanyan shook his head secretly, which made people suspicious, it was better to be generous. It's no wonder that he is so careful, the responsibility he gave him is not small, and a cart of gold, silver and jewelry will be handed over to him, and it will inevitably suffer from gains and losses.
The girl's goal was achieved, but her face was pale and a little unnatural. I thought it was like a group of wealthy families who fled south to buy grain, but I didn't expect that I was pretending to be a group of loyal martyrs. Hou Xuanyan looked funny, and took the initiative to say: "I don't know the girl's name, I am in Xia Jiading Hou Xuanyan." ”
"My name is Huang Ying, and I'm.."
The maid beside her was busy with her eyes, but Huang Ying didn't see it at all, so she had no choice but to tug at the corner of her clothes and cough dryly.
Huang Ying said curtly: "I'm going to go to my relatives." ”
This is obviously a prevarication, and it is clear that I don't want to tell you.
Hou Xuanyan glared at the maid who was showing off her delicate figure because of the rain, and only then did she find that the two maids looked exactly the same, and they were twins.
Both of them were born with a delicate little face the size of a palm, but they are actually quite petite, but their waists are small and their hips are high, and their legs are slender in proportion. The silk with excellent texture is draped on the body, and when it is drenched in the rain, it is wrapped in a delicate and convex chest, and the scale cannot be underestimated. The one on the left pursed his lips and smiled: "Childe doesn't have to stare at us, we also have unspeakable secrets, and when we have a chance in the south, we will naturally confess to Childe." "The voice is delicate and soft, like a big family's lady.
The maid on the right was much more indifferent, and the elegant and graceful Xue Jing couldn't see her joy or anger, and she lowered her eyes and added gently: "If there is a chance to meet in the future." ”
Hou Xuanyan opened his mouth and smiled, his handsome face was full of ease. raised his eyebrows, and said with a smile: "Just a few bags of rice, I won't chase to the ends of the earth and ask for it." There is also a pile of firewood here, you can take it and burn it by the way, although it is the height of summer, it is easy to feel cold when you sleep in the rain. ”
As soon as this sentence came out, the girl called Huang Ying was even more ashamed, and the more generous Hou Xuanyan was, the more ridiculous her careful thinking became.
Huang Ying stuck out her tongue and said with a smile: "Then thank you Brother Hou, let's go back." ”
After pretending to be straight for so long, Huang Ying was already impatient, and jumped up and walked towards the side room. Hou Xuanyan secretly watched behind him, while secretly looking forward to the rain, the rain soon, the rain quickly.
hated the two maids, as if they had seen through his dirty thoughts, and followed with an umbrella. didn't care at all that she was exposed in the rain, Hou Xuanyan saw this scene, and knew that this girl not only had a respected status, but also the two little maids were also very loyal. Surname Huang? Who is it?
The men in the robes carried the rice bags and firewood, hugged their fists, and returned to the wing.
After the people left, the group of people in the hall dared to discuss in a whisper, and for a while, everyone's faces were red with excitement.
Hou Xuanyan laughed, these people have not experienced the baptism of various media in later generations, and the most handsome woman they can see is a little widow who is forced to make a living or something, similar to Tofu Shih. Seeing this kind of little beauty, how can she be so chic.
There was a loud thunder outside the hall, and this sudden rainstorm caused the heavens and the earth to be discolored. It was no longer possible to distinguish between day and night, and the people in the temple leaned against the pillars and leaned against the futon, and gradually began to snore.
Hou Xuanyan leaned on the Buddha statue, and slowly closed his eyes, and he saw the tragic image of Jiading City. The torrent of history is rolling forward, and the situation at the end of the Ming Dynasty is erosive, not the responsibility and mistakes of one person or two people. Now that he has reached the edge of exhaustion, the only variable may be his little butterfly.
I hope that I can save these people from slaughter, as for the bigger goal, Hou Xuanyan is desperate every time he thinks about it.
At the time of the national crisis, the two small imperial courts in the south were still fighting among themselves.
The national strength of the Southern Ming Dynasty was actually stronger than that of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, Li Zicheng's Dashun, and Zhang Zizhong's Daxi combined. But helplessly, Shi Kefa Ma Shiying is not the minister of Zhongxing, and King Xiaofu is not the king of Zhongxing.
The so-called gentleman of the Donglin Restoration Society often says that Qin Hui is inside and Li Gang is outside. To compare these two ministers with the highest official positions in the Southern Ming Dynasty, they don't know that Shi Kefa is also a person who firmly does not dare to start a war with the Qing.
It was he, the nominal supreme commander, who left Shandong and Henan alone, and blindly sat on the mountain and watched the tiger fight. wanted to form an alliance with the Manchu Qing to fight Li Zicheng, which raised the momentum of the Manchu Qing Dynasty. As a dignified superintendent of the cabinet department, he sat in Jiangbei for a year, and spent more than ten times the military expenditure of the entire Manchu Qing Dynasty, but he did nothing.
The incompetence of the commander is the original sin of the famous Shi Kefa. His arrogant soldiers and fierce generals have the courage to abuse the people and are afraid of foreign wars. He just blindly accommodating and conniving, without any means. There were many opportunities to seize military power and show his strength, but he chose to compromise and avoid it.
Later generations said that Shi Kefa guarded Yangzhou for ten days, which is even more nonsense. It was his friend Huang Zongxi's Spring and Autumn brushwork that blew out a loyal martyr through the ages.
In fact, according to Shi Kefa's own suicide note, Yangzhou was lost in just one day. Duoduo's troops pressed the border, and Liu Zhaoji, the chief soldier of Yangzhou, suggested taking advantage of the enemy's unstable foothold and going out of the city to fight. But Shi Kefa said: "Don't try to be sharp, and raise the whole front to wait for it to die." ”
This is simply the biggest joke in military history, to put it bluntly, General Liu felt that the enemy had just arrived, and he went out to kill him while he had not yet set up a position. What Shi Kefa means is that they are too powerful to easily test their edge, and when they are all together, we are annihilating them. MDZZ
Such a short-sighted and incompetent person is the commander of Jiangbei, and it is difficult for the Ming Dynasty not to die. Compared with him, Yan Yingyuan, who is still struggling to support in Jiangyin, doesn't know where he is taller.
