Chapter 259: Taizu's Will
"Sister!" Qin Xiaojing walked over and gently lifted the woman's head.
"Child, child......" The woman's stomach was cut with a large hole more than a foot long, and blood flowed from her intestines. She muttered as hard as she could, her eyes looking at the haystack beside her.
Wang Rui gently pulled out the haystack and took out a baby wrapped in a small quilt from the innermost. The little guy is cute and sleeping.
Wang Rui held the baby in front of the woman, and the woman stretched out her hand with difficulty, gently touching the child's face, and tears flowed down like a stream.
"Great, my lord......", the woman turned to Wang Rui, her eyes full of begging.
Wang Rui took the baby back into his arms, tried to squeeze out a smile and said: "I am Wang Rui, the general of Dengzhou, the newly sealed general of Zhengdong in the imperial court. I will raise your child, ask my husband to teach him to read, and give him a wife and start a family. Don't worry! ”
As soon as Wang Rui finished speaking, Qin Xiaojing felt his wrist sink. When she looked again, the woman had closed her eyes peacefully.
"Big sister! Eldest sister! Qin Xiaojing began to call out to her loudly.
Wang Rui freed his right hand, patted her shoulder, and handed the child to her hand. Ay! Poor little darling.
Returning to the Zunhua Yamen, which served as a temporary commander's camp, Wang Rui began to dispatch soldiers from various battalions to clean up the corpses of the people who had been killed by the Manchurians on the streets.
At the same time, he also ordered a part of the grain to be allocated in the form of work-for-relief, so that the people of Zunhua could rebuild their homes together.
Liu Zhilun and Qin Liangyu were very satisfied with Wang Rui's disposition, and on the same day, they wrote the chapter of the victory of the flowers, and together with the more than 1,000 captive heads they had captured, they sent people to Beijing together.
When Wang Rui was a little time ago, he saw a lot of bright clothes and knew that there was such an upright and patriotic Sichuan villager.
However, in another time and space, he had already been martyred on Niangniangmiao Mountain. Now, because of Wang Rui's arrival, his fate has changed dramatically.
Wang Rui's small butterfly wings began to fan huge waves in the long river of history. Countless Han people were born because of him, and countless barbarians died because of him.
Because there was no imperial edict for a while, Wang Ruiwang and Qin Liangyu were stationed in Zunhua. Wang Rui also immediately reorganized and trained the annexed Liu Zhilun department.
It turned out that the green-skinned hooligans came in to eat mixed rice, or missed their relatives in their hometown, and the Laizhou army gave them silver taels to eat and let them return to their hometowns in peace.
In any case, these people can go to the battlefield and fight bloody battles, and all of them are good. In this way, more than 800 people were still left.
In the afternoon of this day, Wang Rui, Qin Liangyu and Liu Zhilun sat idly and drank tea. Chen Song came in to report that Zunhua Zhizhou, Tongzhi, the judge and others had returned.
"Huh! Do they still have the face to come back? Pass them in. Wang Rui laughed angrily.
After a few moments, three officials dressed in civilian robes walked in briskly. The first person is in his forties, and it is Zhou Wuhao, the governor of Zunhua.
Zhou Wuhao, a native of Huai'an, a native of Nanzhili, a three-year jinshi of the Apocalypse, a traitor of the Donglin Party, and a close relationship with a Donglin boss.
"The lower officials and others don't know that the hall is here, and they are disappointed, and they hope to forgive them."
The three of them, led by Zhou Wuhao, respectfully bowed to Liu Zhilun, who was sitting at the head of the lobby.
As for Qin Liangyu and Wang Rui, martial arts, what else is rude? It would be nice not to let you kneel and bow!
"Oh! Three adults are kind! Now that the captives have fled and Zunhua has recovered, several adults have come back at the right time, just in time to take over the important task of reassuring the people. Liu Zhilun also politely waved slightly.
"Take a seat." Liu Zhilun saw that the three of them were still standing stupidly, so he waved them to take their seats.
"Who are you?" Zhou Wuhao saw Wang Rui sitting upright, and sneered at himself, and couldn't help but feel stunned. He walked towards a chair next to Liu Zhilun and asked unceremoniously.
"Who are you? How dare you be rude in front of Qin Du and my lord! ”
Chen Song saw that someone dared to be rude in front of Lord Wang Rui, so he immediately pressed the handle of the knife with his hand and stepped forward to ask.
"This official is Zhou Wuhao, who is from Zunhua and Wupin, and is a three-year jinshi of the Apocalypse. Who are you? Zhou Wuhao stroked his beard and responded proudly.
"From the five pins? What a big official authority! Do you know who is in front of you? My family is the general soldier of Dengzhou Town, and he is the general of Zhengdong. Chen Song said with a sneer.
"How's that?" Zhou Wuhao still looked angry. In the late Ming Dynasty, the situation of the noble and the lowly was extremely perverted and crazy, and there were often cases of the general soldiers of Cong Yipin kneeling to the magistrate of the county and the governor of the sixth and seventh grades.
At this time, Zhou Wuhao still knew very little about Wang Rui's fierce soldiers. Therefore, he still maintains the arrogance of a civilian official in the face of military generals.
"How? Ha ha! Chen Song couldn't help laughing, and shouted outside the lobby: "Chief Zhou Wu, bring your Qi Jiawu in." Let that talented Zhou Shixiang teach these three arrogant people etiquette! ”
After a few breaths, Zhou Yuntai rushed in with six soldiers from Qi Jiawu.
"Smash the knees of these three thieves for me, so that they can learn to kneel in front of Shangguan!" Chen Song viciously ordered.
"Mr. Wang, why is this so? Why? Liu Zhilun saw that things were going bad, and immediately got up to persuade him.
"Huh! Be at ease. Let's ask what the Ming Statute says. ”
Wang Rui stretched out his hand to signal Liu Zhilun to sit down, then turned his head and asked Zhou Shixiang: "Zhou Xiucai, in this Ming law, when you meet an official from the fifth grade to an official from the first grade, what should you be?" ”
"Kneel!" Zhou Shi didn't want to think about it, so he answered. This Ming law, he really memorized it well.
"Excellent! It's a talent. Then execute! Wang Rui smiled and waved.
"Mr. Wang!" , "General Xiao Wang! Liu Zhilun and Qin Liangyu were both taken aback.
Dealing with the imperial court officials in this way, where is the Ming court? Even if you want to punish them, it won't be your turn Wang Rui.
However, since Lord Wang has already given the order, Zhou Yuntai and the others will not be polite. Qi Jiawu worked in pairs, wheeled the iron rod, and smashed the knees of the three unlucky eggs.
"Ahh "Lord Liu, help me and wait!" The three Zunhua officials endured great pain and pleaded with Liu Zhilun one after another.
"Mr. Wang, what is the reason? What is the rationale for this? Liu Zhilun saw that Wang Rui didn't give him face, and his gray beard shook angrily.
"Huh! This is in accordance with the will of Emperor Gao, the ancestor of the Ming Dynasty. Lord Liu, don't you know anything about this law? ”
Wang Rui smiled and shook it to the sky, and moved out the big killer of Zhu Yuanzhang's will. Liu Zhilun was shocked and immediately stopped talking.
Nima, you madman! Hundreds of years have passed since this great ancestor's will, so is there such a rigid implementation as you?
But it seems that he can't contradict him! What's going on?
Watching Qi Jiawu's soldiers beat up the three civilian officials violently, and after the beating, they were pressed to the ground and kowtowed, Liu Zhilun couldn't help but feel numb.
"Hmmm! That's pretty much it! The king smiled and raised his hand to stop the crowd.
Just when Liu Zhilun and Qin Liangyu thought that this matter could be good, Wang Rui smiled again: "There are still a lot of military and political affairs to be consulted by three generals." ”
