The next day was Chinese New Year's Eve.

In the Suzhou Weaving Yamen Welfare Workshop, the lights are colorful, the friends are full, and there is a lot of laughter. More than 600 weavers and their families, and 500 soldiers of the Township Brave Regiment gathered together, in addition to eating, drinking, talking and laughing, they were named and paid.

Ji Qingwen deliberately emptied the treasury silver this time, so the money was also a lot of money, two hundred taels of silver for each weaver, which was equivalent to two more years of wages for the weavers, and according to the algorithm of later generations, it was an extra twenty-four salaries.

With such a large amount of money in the pocket, the weavers were naturally overjoyed, and they couldn't help but praise Ji Qingwen for being able to earn and spend money, but it was Marshal Zhao Gong (Zhao Gongming, God of Wealth) who went down to earth.

As for the 500 township brave regiment training sergeants, they have not yet come out of the grief of Chen Wenzhao's death, and although they are happy to take the silver, they are not to the point of getting carried away.

In this way, more than 1,000 people ate, drank, made noise, and noisy in the welfare workshop until midnight, until the noise alarmed Kou Shen, the prefect of Suzhou who was patrolling the city, and everyone was stunned.

In the next few days, Ji Qingwen and Li Yan worked together in various yamen in Suzhou Mansion and Songjiang Mansion, spending 10,000 taels of silver to dredge joints everywhere.

Li Yan, who already had a very high opinion of himself, passed by Jingshi and his party, and let him see those Donglin party members who claimed to "rather bend than bend" and "not eat the food that comes to them", and picked up Ji Qingwen's real money faster than anyone else, and had a deeper understanding of the current situation of the Ming Dynasty.

Therefore, when Li Yan and Ji Qingwen walked around the yamen together, although they kept talking beautiful words, their hearts were full of contempt and disdain for these officials who read the books of sages and embarked on official careers, and they easily gave up their principles and beliefs in front of such mundane things as gold and silver, which made Li Yan feel pity and pity for them.

In this way, it is Chinese New Year's Eve in the blink of an eye.

Now Ji Qingwen, Li Yan, Li Yuanyin, Huang Degong and others in the weaving yamen are all uprooted guests, and their hometowns are thousands of miles away, so they can't celebrate the Spring Festival with relatives and friends.

So Ji Qingwen went to the famous Deyue Building in Suzhou City, chose the best and most expensive dishes and ordered a large table of banquets, and asked Li Yan to take his new wife, Huang Degong to his wife, Li Yuanyin alone, and his own apricot and Xiaoduozi to gather in the weaving yamen for the festival.

Liu Ru was originally from Yangzhou, and now that he has been pardoned, he should have been able to go home for the New Year, and by the way, he celebrated this great joy with the whole clan.

However, Liu Ru chose to stay in Suzhou and continue to accompany Ji Qingwen, her husband.

Although Ji Qingwen was happy about this, he was still a little unbearable, so he said: "This is the first Spring Festival for you to regain your innocence, and you should go home to see your father and mother." Are you still afraid that there will be no one to serve on my side? You can go home with peace of mind. ”

Liu Ru shook his head and refused: "No need."

。 I'm not afraid that my husband will look down on me, the more I get to this kind of New Year's holiday, the busier the Qinglou will be, I haven't been home for five or six years, what it feels like to celebrate the New Year at home, I have long forgotten ......"

Ji Qingwen heard her words with a somewhat miserable tone, so he hurriedly quipped: "Then you have to become familiar with this feeling again in the future, isn't this your home?" When you celebrate the New Year here, aren't you just celebrating the New Year at home? ”

When Liu Ru heard this, she was moved in her heart, and she couldn't help but burst into tears.

Seeing her like this, Ji Qingwen felt indescribable love and pity in his heart, stretched out his hand and hugged Liu Ru in his arms, half pushed and half pulled into the bedroom, and it was a lot of rain and clouds.

Thanks to Liu Ru's stay in the weaving yamen, from Chinese New Year's Eve to the Lantern Festival, when everyone gathers to drink and have fun, Liu Ru always shows his hand - or blow the flute, or touch the piano, or pipa, or chant, and show the same skill every day, and there is no one repeating it for more than ten days.

After everyone admired it, they finally knew that Liu Ru was known as the head of "Qin Huai Bayan", but he would never be famous.

But Ji Qingwen has another emotion: Those so-called stars in later generations, who sing incompletely, act like zombies, and host rigid routines, can make a lot of money with just a good skin given by their parents, or plastic surgeons, which may be called "selling their bodies without selling their arts". On the other hand, Liu Rus, she is good at piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, poetry and songs, omniscient, with her virgin body, her name moves Jinling, attracting rich children to spend a lot of money just to buy her smile - this is the real art and not selling her body!

After resting like this for more than ten days, the fatigue accumulated in the first battle of the Jingshi was finally dispelled away by Ji Qingwen.

He summoned Li Yuanyin and wanted to ask when Shen Liangzuo, the newly established Songjiang Prefecture City Bo Si, would be able to arrive in Suzhou.

Jin Yiwei commanded the servant Li Yuanyin to be extremely well-informed, and after going out for a circle, he brought back information, saying that Shen Liangzuo was originally scheduled to set off from Beijing on the 18th day of the first month of the Lantern Festival, and now the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal is in the dry season, and I am afraid that it will be difficult to carry large-tonnage ships, so the officials and merchants who went south and north were afraid that the ships they were taking would sail in the canal, so they could only go south by land.

And by land, it will take at least ten days to travel from Beijing to Suzhou, plus Shen Liangzuo and the officials stationed in Jiangnan to dredge and dredge, and when he arrives at Songjiang Mansion, it will be at least early February.

Therefore, Ji Qingwen thought about it and felt that there was still time, so he picked up the five hundred "Ming Wu Army" soldiers in his department, held the ashes of Chen Wenzhao and several other Zhejiang fallen soldiers, and went to Yiwu, Zhejiang.

Although these people were killed in the battle with the Manchurian Emperor Taiji, in the final analysis, it was Ji Qingwen who took them away from Yiwu, so Ji Qingwen wanted to buy feng shui treasures at his own expense and bury these fallen soldiers together.

Unexpectedly, the clan concept in Yiwu is very important, and each family heard that the children of their own clan sacrificed their lives for the country, but did not say anything to Ji Qingwen, but sent someone to retrieve the ashes and bury them in the family cemetery, and set up a spiritual seat in the ancestral hall for future generations to worship and worship.

Fortunately, for these fallen soldiers, Ji Qingwen specially asked for them to posthumously seal at least the official position of the general manager, so these tablets deliberately wrote out the title, which is quite a bit of style.

Among them, only Chen Wenzhao was alone, and no Chen clan came to accept the ashes.

Ji Qingwen felt strange, so he asked Li Yuanyin to inquire, and only then did he know that Chen Wenzhao's uncles and uncles were all soldiers of the Qi family, and they died in the battle in the early years, leaving no Chen Wenzhao's uncles and brothers. And Chen Wenzhao's own parents have long passed away, and only two sisters are still alive in the world, but they are both married and married, and they are no longer members of the Chen family. Therefore, with the death of Chen Wenzhao, the Yiwu Chen family has fallen into the situation of being out of the house.

Ji Qingwen was not very emotional when he heard such news, and then realized that when Chen Wenzhao presided over the recruitment of the five hundred township brave group training, he specially explained the reason why the only son in the family was not recruited into the team.

So Ji Qingwen discussed with Li Yan, and no longer bought any feng shui treasures in one fell swoop, but simply built a mausoleum in the mine operated by Chen Wenzhao before his death to bury the general who was born and died for the Ming court.

The miners in the mine are all the children of the fallen soldiers of the old "Qi Family Army", and they were collected by Chen Wenzhao to open mines to make a living.

Therefore, they regarded Chen Wenzhao as a father and brother, and when they heard that he was dead, they were naturally extremely sad, and buried him in the mine with tears, so they took the initiative to ask Ji Qingwen to join the "Ming Wu Army", and waited for the day when the whole army was ordered to go on a northern expedition, so as to have a bloody battle with the Manchurian Tartars, capture Ao Bai alive, and avenge Chen Wenzhao.

These miners are all locals of Yiwu, and they all have the blood of the old "Qi Family Army" flowing in their bodies, they are the best soldiers, they have the same hatred for the enemy, and Ji Qingwen should be under his command.

However, Ji Qingwen promised Chen Wenzhao that he would take good care of these miners, and he couldn't bear that these people would lose their lives in the rain of bullets, so he could only grit his teeth and insist that they should first keep filial piety for Chen Wenzhao in Yiwu for a year, and then discuss after a year.

So Ji Qingwen deliberately left 20,000 taels of silver for these people to spend, and set up a stall outside the county for three days, according to Chen Wenzhao's method before his death, according to Qi Jiguang's rules back then, selected 400 people from the best and the best of the best, and then returned to Suzhou.

After returning to Suzhou, he selected more than 100 elite soldiers according to the standards in Yiwu, and finally gathered a team of 1,000 people, so he personally led the way, with Huang Degong teaching martial arts, Meng Hong teaching shooting, and Li Yan teaching writing, and slowly let the newly recruited 500 soldiers gradually become a qualified member of the "Ming Wu Army".
