Chapter 97 is in crisis, and the monk helps

During the Battle of Wuhu, Tian Xiong sent a secret arrow to injure Huang Jingnan, causing the Jingnan soldiers to be defeated and killed, and he teamed up with Ma Degong to capture Emperor Hongguang and dedicate it to Duoduo in order to seek glory and wealth, but after he led the troops to surrender to the Qing Dynasty, Duoduo did not give any reward, but just let him let the original officials fight with him.

This made Tian Xiong, who thought he could go further, was very disappointed in his heart, and couldn't help but be a little depressed, he summed up himself, thinking that it was his identity as a general, which made the Qing court wary of him, and he always thought about whether he could make another contribution, in exchange for the trust of the Qing court, so as to be reused.

Wang Yan's sudden appearance near the city of Nanjing made Tian Xiong realize that the opportunity he had been waiting for for a long time had come, and in order to monopolize this credit, he did not even tell Ma Degong, who had been friends with him, and quietly led his troops out of the city.

At this time, Tian Xiong led 200 elite soldiers, followed by Wang Yan's two subordinates, came to the outside of Tongshan Temple, he saw that the temple is located in the valley where the general mountain and the broken arm cliff meet, as long as the mouth of the valley is choked, the people in the temple will be unable to fly, and his heart can not help but be happy.

"Wang Shiheng has a false name, he is hidden in such a Jedi, leaving no way back, and he deserves to be captured by the general!" Tian Xiong said left and right.

At that moment, he asked the little leader to lead fifty people to choke the valley mouth, and he personally took the remaining one hundred and fifty elite soldiers to rush towards Tongshan Temple viciously.

In the temple, Hou Fangyu learned of Wang Yan's identity, and was immediately shocked, and then immediately saw him, and worried: "The general is the stone pillar of the country, how can he come to the dangerous place of Nanjing?" ”

Hou Fangyu is the son of Hou Sui, the Shangshu of the Ming Household Department, his grandfather and father are all members of the Donglin Party, and he is young, and Mao Xiang, Chen Zhenhui, Fang Yizhi, together known as the four sons of Jiangnan, can be described as the pride of the sky, the crown of the Quartet.

Such a family background and reputation made Hou Fangyu pretentious, self-esteem, thinking that no one else could do it, only he and Donglin could go about to collapse, and help the building to fall, so later, he stirred up the storm in Nanjing City and participated in party disputes and other things.

After experiencing the shattering of the country, the fall of Nanjing, and the surrender of Qian Qianyi, the arrogance in Hou Fangyu's heart has disappeared, and only infinite regret remains, so this son, who once dared not to give face to the Shoufu University Scholar, put his posture very low when facing Wang Yan at this time.

As the minister of the country, Wang Yan personally took risks and came to Nanjing, where the Qing soldiers were heavily stationed, which was indeed inappropriate, but now that he has come, it is useless to say more.

When Wang Yan heard Hou Fangyu's words, he didn't answer him, but asked: "I have heard a lot about Hou Gongzi and Xiangjun girl, but I don't know if Hou Gongzi has inquired about Xiangjun girl in Nanjing City. ”

Li Xiangjun is in love with Hou Fangyu, and Jinling knows that the reason why Wang Yan saved Hou Fangyu is also an important reason.

Wang Yan asked Hou Fangyu about Li Xiangjun, which was obviously a little abrupt, which made Hou Fangyu's face change slightly after hearing this, but he remembered at this time that he had heard the rumors between Wang Yan and Xu Niangzi of Meixianglou, and immediately reacted, it turned out that the two of them were sick and sympathetic.

For a while, perhaps because of the similarity between the two, Hou Fangyu's good impression of Wang Yan suddenly increased, and at the same time, he also understood Wang Yan's intention to come to Nanjing.

Wang Yan's behavior, if Zuo Maodi, Chen Zilong and others learned about it, they would inevitably scold him and educate him well, but in Hou Fangyu's view, he was greatly appreciated and cited as a confidant.

In the original history, Hou Fangyu once gave advice to the Qing court, and also participated in the Qing court examination, and was ridiculed by the people of the time: "The two dynasties should raise Hou Gongzi, and endure to say Li Xiang to the peach blossoms." He regretted this move in his later years, and died of depression at the age of thirty-seven, but now the appearance of Wang Yan has made his trajectory change a little.

"I can't hide it, I came to Nanjing to pick up Xiangjun, but when I entered the city, the Qing soldiers had already entered the city and plundered Qinhuai, and Meixianglou also fell into a sea of fire, and I failed to meet Xiangjun." Hou Fangyu said sadly: "After that, I also inquired in many ways, and got the news that Li Zhenli took Xiangjun and Xu Niangzi when the Qing army was about to arrive, and left Meixianglou, I wanted to find out where they went, but there was no news, but there was no news, in fact, it was good news, at least Zhengming Xiangjun had escaped from Nanjing." ”

When Wang Yan heard this, he couldn't help but feel confident that Hou Fangyu had a lot of old knowledge in Nanjing, and the information he got was naturally accurate, so it must be as he said, Xu Yanyan had fled Nanjing.

At the beginning, Wang Yan listened to Liu Shun's words, and was worried that Xu Yanyan was no longer in the sea of fire, but now that he knows that she is still alive, half of the purpose of his trip to Nanjing will be achieved.

Although it is not yet known where Xu Yanyan is, Wang Yan can already breathe a sigh of relief.

Outside the temple, two monks were outside the courtyard gate, sweeping the fallen leaves, but suddenly saw a group of Qing soldiers, coming with great momentum, and they were immediately shocked.

Seeing this, the two monks hurriedly dropped their brooms and hurried all the way to the main hall to report to the presiding officer who was doing the morning class.

When the monks heard this, they were all a little flustered, but the host asked without changing his face: "Jingfang, has the temple taken in pilgrims recently?" ”

When the monk heard this, his face couldn't help but change, and he replied: "Master Qiqi, only more than 20 people were taken in last night and placed in the West Chamber. Could it be that the Qing soldiers came for them? The disciple took in outsiders in vain and brought disaster to the temple, please punish the master! ”

"Amitabha!" The old host preached a Dharma, and then said calmly: "It's a blessing or a curse, it's a disaster that can't be avoided." My Buddha is merciful, has the virtue of a good life, and you have not done anything wrong, so how can you punish me, and you will lead me to meet a few donors first. Jingzhi, you go to the outside of the hospital to block and try to delay for some time. ”

Wang Yan was talking with Hou Fangyu, and the host, under the leadership of the monk Zhike, came to the small courtyard of the West Chamber, and Wang Yan and the others hurriedly saluted slightly.

"Amitabha!" presided over a Buddha ceremony, and then asked directly: "I don't know the name of the donor, what is his identity?" Can you tell the poor monks? ”

The old host suddenly came and asked Wang Yan directly, which made Wang Yan feel a pang in his heart, but he didn't answer immediately.

"Just now my nephew came to report, there is a team of Qing soldiers, straight to the temple, a moment is coming, the master has sent the senior brother to stop, delay some time. What is your status? It is best to inform us so that we can respond. Seeing that Wang Yan was silent, the monk said in a hurry.

"What? What about the Qing soldiers? Hou Fangyu couldn't help but be taken aback when he heard this.

Wang Yan was also nervous, he wasn't sure if the Qing soldiers were coming at him, but the host of Tongshan Temple came to him in person, obviously thinking that the Qing soldiers were coming at him, and he no longer concealed his identity at the moment and said: "My Ming is loyal and brave, and Wang Yan, the doctor of Ronglu!" ”

"Amitabha!" When the host heard this, his calm face finally changed a little, so he preached a Buddha horn and saluted Wang Yan: "It turned out to be the Hou Ye, the poor monk is polite." ”
