Li Hongyu and Zizhu said goodbye and left after Qin De agreed to vacate the room, Qin Deqiang sent the two out of the mansion with a smile, and when the two of them boarded the carriage parked in front of the door and left, their faces became gloomy, and they returned to the courtyard angrily, looking very annoyed.

Originally, I thought that something that was nine out of ten would change unexpectedly, such a thing would not be comfortable for anyone, and the most important thing was that Qin De had invested a lot of money in the house, in case he was asked to go back by the Zhao family, would he want to move away those marbles, flowers and strange stones?

"Young Master, this idea of yours is so good, Qin De's face turned blue." On the driving carriage, although he forcibly suppressed the joy in his heart, Zizhu still couldn't hold back his laughter and said to Li Hongyu opposite.

Before this, Zizhu would never have thought that Li Hongyu would propose to live in the mansion occupied by Qin De, and the reasons were quite sufficient, so that Qin De could not refuse at all, and he could not refuse.

For the sake of the overall situation of the Li family and Li Hongyu's future, the Zhao family has been forbearing, Zizhu has been sulking a lot because of this, and now she finally vomited a bad breath in her chest, it seems that this time it will be Li Renhe's turn to break his brain.

"Aunt Zi, I'll go back and tell my mother about this time, you can arrange for me to live in the past tomorrow, in addition to Rou'er, it is enough to transfer two maids from outside." Li Hongyu smiled slightly when he heard this, since Li Renhe didn't let him live comfortably, then he also added to Li Renhe's blockage.

Zizhu couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this, he didn't expect Li Hongyu to call the maid from outside, could it be that he didn't trust the maid who was serving him?

"I understand, I'll buy two maids when I go back." Then, Zizhu nodded solemnly.

Li Hongyu is right, now every move of the Li family's third room is under Li Renhe's surveillance, and there must be many people around Li Hongyu and the Zhao family who have become Li Renhe's eyeliner.

This is not that the Zhao family is not good to those people, but the situation of the Li Mansion is forced, everyone knows that the Li Mansion is Li Renhe's world, so it is natural to take refuge in Li Renhe, a strong man, otherwise there will definitely be no good life in the future.

It is precisely because of this that Zizhu feels that Li Hongyu's proposal is very good, and it will be bad if Li Renhe's eyeliner is inserted next to Li Hongyu, so everyone in the family will have to choose carefully in the future.

But how did Li Hongyu come up with this? Is it unintentional?

Zizhu Fox looked at Li Hongyu suspiciously, and couldn't help but have a puzzled look in her eyes, Li Hongyu's performance today really shocked her, and it can be said that she gave her a bad breath in her chest without much effort.

"By the way, Aunt Zi, I asked Tie Niu to call a few people from home, and tomorrow you arrange for them to live with me." At this time, Li Hongyu suddenly thought of something, smiled at Zizhu and said, for his own safety, he needed Tie Niu's brothers to be his entourage.

Compared with the Li family's nursing homes, Li Hongyu believes that once he encounters a critical moment of life and death, a country man like Tie Niu who came out of the countryside is more trustworthy, and he is willing to work hard to protect him.

At the same time, Li Hongyu also needs some trustworthy people to help him do things, and Wang Tieniu is obviously the kind of person he wants.

"Good!" A look of surprise appeared on Zizhu's face, and after nodding, he answered, looking at Li Hongyu with a trace of confusion in his eyes.

Zizhu can be said to have watched Li Hongyu grow up, and in her impression, Li Hongyu used to do things arranged by the Zhao family before, and never raised any objections or requirements.

And this time, Li Hongyu not only unexpectedly had to move into the house occupied by Qin De, but also asked Wang Tieniu to recruit some helpers from the house, which she would never have thought of anyway.

For Zizhu, Li Hongyu gave her too many surprises this afternoon, she never thought that Li Hongyu would be able to help the family one day.

"Listen, the soldiers of Liaodong stick to the bitter cold land to guard the frontier, life is difficult, we should serve the country as the people of the Ming Dynasty, only Cathay can be safe, so the county lord hopes that you have money to contribute, powerful contributions, to raise some military supplies for the soldiers of Liaodong, and make a contribution to the Ming Dynasty."

As he walked, there was a sudden sound of a gong outside the carriage, and it was a loud voice approaching.

"Liaodong?" Li Hongyu's eyes couldn't help but light up when he heard this, if he remembered correctly, this year was the second year of the establishment of the Liaodong Jurchens.

Since the Yongle Emperor moved the capital to Beijing and implemented the strategy of "the Son of Heaven guarding the country" to defend and combat the remnants of the Northern Yuan Dynasty, the capital of the Ming Dynasty was actually under the threat of the ethnic minorities in the north and outside the Guan, after all, the two sides were only separated by the Great Wall, and once the Great Wall defense line was breached, it would face the danger of troops approaching the city.

After the Battle of Tumubao that year, the reason why Wara's troops were able to reach the city of Beijing was because the city was too close to the Great Wall.

If the capital was in Nanjing, the strength of the Vara would never dare to penetrate into the hinterland of the Ming Dynasty, after all, the Ming Dynasty was in a strong period at that time, and the garrisons around the country reached millions, much more than the total population of the Varat.

Therefore, after besieging the city of Beijing for a period of time, Warat heard that the troops of the King of Qin from all walks of life in the Ming Dynasty were coming one after another, so he immediately retreated.

If there are two inner and outer Great Walls and the defense area of Shanxi Xingdu Division between Wara and Beijing City, then once the Later Jin Dynasty dominates Liaodong and Beijing City, there is only a Shanhai Pass, and if the Shanhai Pass is breached, then Beijing City will be besieged by the Houjin army.

Although judging from the current situation, Houjin was on the defensive in Liaodong, and because of the disadvantage in strength, he could not attack the Ming Dynasty, first of all, Shanhaiguan became an insurmountable pass for them.

But Li Hongyu knows very well that more than 20 years later, Shanhaiguan has become an ornament, and the Houjin army, which has become the Qing army, entered the customs unhindered with the help of Wu Sangui, giving the Ming Dynasty the last heavy blow.

"Humph!"

When Li Hongyu was wandering outside the world, Zizhu suddenly snorted coldly, and said with a disdainful face, "What is serving the country, I think it's just an excuse for the county lord to make money, over the years, the yamen has been taxed year after year, and how much money has been collected and handed over to the imperial court, and it is not that they have filled their pockets!" ”

After listening to Zizhu's words, Li Hongyu couldn't help but feel some emotion in his heart, and couldn't help but think of the famous Wanli Three Great Expeditions in the history of the Ming Dynasty.

During his reign, the Wanli Emperor launched three campaigns against the Northwest Frontier, the Southwest Frontier, and Korea, namely the Battle of Ningxia to quell the Mongol rebellion, the Battle of Korea to fight against the Japanese invaders, and the Battle of Banju to quell the Tusi rebellion in Miao Territory.

Although the three major campaigns ended in the victory of the Ming army, the military expenditure was huge, which brought a major burden to the Ming Dynasty's finances, so that local taxes increased, which indirectly led to the demise of the Ming Dynasty.

"This magistrate is a little interesting!" Li Hongyu lifted the curtain of the car window, glanced at a county official standing at the corner of the street carrying a gong and shouting at the same time, and then lowered the curtain, and a subtle smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Although corrupt officials and corrupt officials were rampant in the late Ming Dynasty, Li Hongyu did not fully agree with Zizhu's words just now, if the magistrate of Jiangkou County really wanted to collect money, he would definitely not use this form of donation, which would be easy to fall into the hands of others, but just find a name to add endowment, which makes things a little interesting.

Since Li Hongyu hadn't had time to understand the situation outside of Baihe Town shortly after recovering from his serious illness, all he knew came from Rou'er.

Rou'er is not interested in the affairs of the government, so he doesn't know much useful things, only knows that the county magistrate's surname is Chen, and he took office two years ago, and he seems to have been a jinshi.

Li Hongyu is not in a hurry to collect information about Chen Zhixian now, it is difficult to provide him with useful information from the people he is in contact with now, anyway, he has already decided to participate in this county test, and he will soon meet this Chen Zhixian, and then he will be able to touch the character of this person.

"Mother, the child decided to move out this time, please punish my mother."

Back at the Li family's mansion, Li Hongyu knelt on the ground with his legs bent when he saw Zhao, and seriously pleaded guilty to Zhao, such a major event of leaving home should be decided by Zhao.

"Miss, it's Zhu'er who didn't dissuade the young master, if you want to punish Zhu'er, it has nothing to do with the young master." Seeing this, Zizhu also knelt aside, and took the responsibility down, to be honest, Li Hongyu gave her a bad breath today.

"What's going on?" Zhao didn't know what was going on at this time, and couldn't help but have a suspicious look on his face, and he stretched out his hand to pull Li Hongyu and Zizhu up from the ground and looked at Li Hongyu with a surprised expression, "Yu'er, where are you moving to?" ”

"Mother, the child wants to participate in this county exam, and in order to review his homework, he wants to go to the house given by his grandfather to live temporarily for a while, where the quiet environment is conducive to the child's preparation for the exam." Li Hongyu had been prepared and replied in an orderly manner.

"You want to take this county exam?" Zhao was taken aback, and looked at Li Hongyu in surprise, "Didn't your fourth uncle let you postpone the exam for two years?" ”

"Mother, the child wants to try it, if he can successfully pass the county exam, the government exam and the hospital exam this time and become a student, the uncle will not dare to bully us anymore." Li Hongyu nodded and said with a resolute expression, looking quite angry in his words.

"Good boy!" Hearing this, Zhao's tears fell, and he hugged Li Hongyu in his arms, and couldn't help crying bitterly.

Over the years, the Zhao family has been walking on thin ice in the Li family's mansion, and she has suffered so much that she can't explain it to outsiders, and Li Hongyu's previous seemingly immature words suddenly hit her tear ducts.

"Miss!" Seeing this, Zizhu also followed alongside and shed tears.

The Zhao family used to be just a weak woman from a scholarly family, and Li Renhai's unexpected death made her have to stand behind the scenes to the front desk to support the Li family's three rooms, and the pain suffered during this period is only known to her and Zizhu.

Now, Li Hongyu, who has been under the care of the Zhao family, unexpectedly wants to protect the Zhao family, which makes the Zhao family and Zizhu feel extremely happy, and at the same time, they also vent the frustration in their hearts that they can't confide in others.

Seeing that Zhao was crying sadly, Li Hongyu suddenly felt an inexplicable sadness in his heart, and tears flowed involuntarily, he knew that this was his heart crying, after all, this body still belonged to that young man, the so-called mother and son connected hearts, how could he not be sad now that Zhao was so sad?
