Chapter 1 Opponents Section 002 Gao Yingxiang? Li Zicheng!
Xiao Duozi sorted out his language and replied, "The little one also knows a few tenants who grow my land. They said that in the past few years, natural disasters have continued, and they are almost unable to eat, so they must find ways to reduce the tenant rent by 10%. No, they also specially invited Gao Yingxiang, a famous person outside Xi'an, to speak for them! ”
Gao Yingxiang ...... Gao Yingxiang ...... "Ji Qingwen read these three words in his stomach several times, only feeling that this name was a little familiar, but he couldn't remember who it was, so he asked: "Who is this Gao Yingxiang?" ”
Xiao Duozi replied: "He is a horse trader, and he usually acts righteously and fairly, and he is very prestigious among the peasants in this area, and everyone asks him to mediate any disputes." This person is well-informed and seems to know some martial arts, so he doesn't seem to be easy to deal with. ”
Ji Qingwen said nonchalantly: "No matter how difficult it is to deal with, he is alone, what's the big deal." You just say that I said it, and asked the family members who were raised by the family to come out, and lay in ambush next to the restaurant at night when the tenants were talking, and if he dared to make a fuss, he would take it down immediately, and I would like to see if he has three heads and six arms. ”
When Xiao Duozi heard this, he immediately smiled and said, "The young master is really high, this Gao Yingxiang is really three heads and six arms, and he can't stop seven or eight of us from going up to besiege." I heard that he also asked a nephew who worked in the post station to help him today. I heard that his nephew has some martial arts, and his reputation in the rivers and lakes is not small. But I think it's all for nothing. ”
"Inn? What does a post station mean? Ji Qingwen asked.
"The post station is a place for adults to stay, but who is willing to live in a broken place like a post station today?" Koduoko replied.
Ji Qingwen thought for a while and said, "Probably Gao Yingxiang thinks that his nephew can know a few officials in the post station, so he can come forward and say something." But it seems that his wishful thinking today will not work. Oh, by the way, have you inquired, what's the name of his nephew? ”
"I inquired, I inquired." Xiao Duozi immediately answered, "It's called Li Zicheng." ”
"What! Li Zicheng! Ji Qingwen almost shouted out the name.
Xiao Duozi looked ignorant and asked, "What?" Does the young master know him? ”
It's a difficult question to answer.
After Ji Qingwen crossed over, of course, he hadn't seen or heard of this person named Li Zicheng in person, but how many people in later generations had not heard of his name? It was this Li Zicheng who rebelled against the flag, led the peasant uprising at the end of the Ming Dynasty, proclaimed himself "King Chuang", and single-handedly ended the Ming Dynasty.
At this time, it was the end of summer and early autumn, and it was not very hot in Xi'an City, but the name of "Li Zicheng" was so frightened that a layer of cold sweat suddenly broke out on Ji Qingwen's face, head, and body, and he stood in place for a long time and couldn't say a word.
After being stunned for a long time, Ji Qingwen said: "It seems that today's matter is difficult to handle. By the way, how many families can we gather now? ”
Xiao Duozi pondered for a moment and said, "There are about twenty or thirty people who can be summoned now." The villagers who worked in a few villages outside the city could make up two or three hundred, but they were about to negotiate at night, and they didn't have time to come over. ”
Twenty or thirty people want to deal with Gao Yingxiang and Li Zicheng, which is absolutely not enough.
Ji Qingwen thought about it for a long time, and finally came up with a plan, and said: "Xiao Duozi, prepare the horse, go to the Qin Palace, ask for help!" So saying, he walked briskly to the door of the house.
Xiao Duozi hurriedly agreed, and hurriedly walked out, still asking: "Are the family Ding and Zhuang Ding still screaming?" ”
"Call a fart, let them all lie at home, and show me the home first!" Ji Qingwen said angrily.
Xing'er was busy packing up in the house, and when she heard Ji Qingwen's voice, she hurriedly chased him out and shouted at his back: "Young master, you haven't had breakfast yet, I boiled millet lotus seed soup with my own hands." ”
"No more!" Ji Qingwen was anxious in his heart, and replied without looking back.
In fact, from Ji Qingwen's heart, he was not disgusted at all with the leaders of the peasant uprising like Li Zicheng, but admired their heroism a little.
However, the peasant uprising was not a dinner party, but a matter of killing the landlord's head and sharing the money of the local tyrants.
Who is the landlord? Who is the local tyrant?
Isn't it him Ji Qingwen himself?
Ji Qingwen crossed over, and it has only been half a year since the Communist Party of China, how can he be willing to let Li Zicheng change his life?
"If I'm comfortable, so can others. If I can't live a comfortable life, then others can't even live an awkward life! This is Ji Qingwen's heart.
This strong desire to live the comfortable life he is living now makes him unable to face up to the threat of Gao Yingxiang and Li Zicheng, forcing him to restrain his temperament, which has only been cultivated for less than half a year, and to think well of dealing with these two uprising leaders who will cause a catastrophe in the future.
Ji Qingwen has learned equestrianism in the past half a year, riding a horse along the South Street in the middle of Xi'an City to North Street, and then turning right to East Street, after overturning an unknown number of vendors, and being cursed for many words of "few dogs", Ji Qingwen finally came to the gate of the Qin Wangfu located in the northeast of Xi'an City.
Since the Ming Dynasty succeeded in defeating Zhu Dijing, the king of Yan, it has strictly guarded against the vassal kings in various places, although they are still very much taken care of economically, but they are strictly controlled in terms of political power and military power, and local officials must be monitored at all times to prevent them from making any changes.
However, due to the noble status of the first generation of King Qin, and the Qin Palace, which bears the heavy responsibility of sitting in the Western Regions for the imperial court, the imperial court turns a blind eye to the King of Qin. Therefore, the Qin Palace, in the northeast of Xi'an, was built very grand, like a city within a city, to show the supreme status of the King of Qin under one person and above ten thousand people.
Ji Qingwen did not directly knock on the main gate of the Qin Palace, but went around the horse for half a circle and came to the side door of the palace, only then did he get off the horse and reach out and knock a few times.
After a while, there was a voice answering the door from the palace, but the attitude was not very friendly: "Who? Is it for the royal palace to deliver food? I said I came after lunch, why did I come so early? Death? ”
The status of the vassal king of the Ming Dynasty was respected, and Ji Qingwen listened to the person who answered the sentence speaking rudely, but he did not dare to be presumptuous, cleared his throat and said: "It's me, Ji Qingwen, who came to find the prince of the world!" ”
When the door heard this, he immediately changed his tone: "Yo, it turns out that Young Master Ji is here, and the little one will open the door for you immediately." ”
As soon as the words fell, I heard a "squeak" from the side door of the palace open a gap, and half of the face of the door of the Qin Wangfu with a flattering smile appeared out of the gap, and said: "It's not yet noon, why did Young Master Ji come to find the prince?" ”
Ji Qingwen was full of worries, and he didn't have time to entangle with the person who opened the door, so he said: "Isn't your kid just a janitor, and it's up to me to take care of the heavens and the earth?" Is it up to the prince? ”
Menzi hurriedly explained: "How dare you be small? Even last night, the prince played with Young Master Ji until midnight and didn't come back, and I don't know if I'm up now. Or do you wait here for a while, and the little one will go over for you? ”
Ji Qingwen couldn't wait for him to go back and forth, so he casually threw two taels of silver into the door, and said, "What does the prince have to do with me?" Do you still need to go to the general gift? I'll just go find him, if he doesn't get up, can I wait for him to get up? ”
The man borrowed money, and thought that the prince of Qin had a close relationship with the eldest young master of the Ji family in front of him, and he couldn't wait to wear a pair of pants when he got better, so he hesitated, and then agreed: "It's okay, the little one will take the young master Ji in to find the prince." But if I disturb the dream of the prince, and the prince blames him, the young master will have to take care of it for me......"
"That's a lot of nonsense." Ji Qingwen listened to his nagging endlessly, and immediately interrupted his words, "You just take me in, it's really verbose." ”
When Menzi heard this, he swallowed back the words in his stomach, bowed down and let Ji Qingwen into the door, and said, "Okay, young master come with me." With that, he turned a corner and walked along the path towards the depths of the palace.
Seeing this, Ji Qingwen asked Xiao Duozi to wait at the door, and he hurriedly followed.
Today's King of Qin in Xi'an is named Zhu Yiluo, who has been the king of Qin for almost 30 years, and has four sons under his knees, and the "son" in Ji Qingwen's mouth is the eldest son Zhu Cunshu.
At that time, it was not long after Ji Qingwen crossed over, and he went to drink flower wine in Qiao Fanglou, a famous Qinglou in Xi'an, and happened to meet Zhu Cunshu, the son of King Qin who came out to have fun in Weifu, these two people are of similar age and smell the same, so they have been confidants since then, and they often have fun together, and they have also formed a friendship.
