The secluded ancient road, the silence is long, two women dressed as ordinary people wrapped in cloth towels, under the shade of the trees on both sides of the road, holding bamboo sticks, carrying burdens, bowing their heads and silently hurrying forward.

At this moment, behind them, the sound of horses' hooves came, which made the two women panic, and they walked quickly, and when they saw a tea shed by the roadside, they quickly sat down.

The sound of horses' hooves of "Oooooo~" trampled on the ancient road, and a team of cavalry in yellow armor galloped in front of the shed, as if there was some urgent battle breaking out in front of it.

The two women sat in the tea shed, a little frightened, but the shopkeeper's family seemed to be accustomed to the matter of passing the army, and seemed quite calm.

The shopkeeper is in her thirties, with a long and slender braid on her bald head, and a little girl of four or five years old is playing by herself, while the owner's wife washes vegetables.

The two women sat at the table and looked around, and one of the younger women couldn't help asking, "Madam, General Damu asked us to wait at Xianxia Pass, but there are Qing soldiers everywhere, how can we pass the pass?" ”

The two women are Liu Ruis and her personal maid Xiaoying'er, since Qian Qianyi surrendered to the Qing Dynasty, Liu Rushi and his relationship has cracked, after Qian Qianyi went to Beijing to be a Qing Dynasty official, Liu Rushi received a letter from Zheng Chenggong, asking her to enter Fujian to do her disciple's ceremony.

Shi Liu was in Changshu and had many conflicts with Qian Qianyi's son, so he hurriedly packed his clothes and took the little maid south.

At this time, Liu Ru heard Xiao Ying'er's words, and her brows couldn't help but tighten, they traveled all the way, and they had seen no less than ten Qing soldiers and horses rushing to Xianxia Pass along the way, they were less than 100 people, and there were thousands of people, obviously with the intention of attacking Xianxia Pass, or they had already fought with the Fujian Ming army.

Two weak women, in this chaotic place, if there is no one to answer, how can they pass through the Xianxia Pass, which is full of soldiers?

Liu Ru thought of this, and his heart was slightly gloomy.

At this time, the shopkeeper carried a pot of tea, came to their table, and filled the two tea bowls.

The shopkeeper waved his hand again and again: "You're welcome, you're welcome, this is as it should be." ”

Liu Ru glanced at the shopkeeper and his wife and daughter, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion, "In this chaotic day, looking at your family of three, it's really enviable~"

Hearing this, the shopkeeper looked at his daughter playing on the side, and then looked at his wife who was washing vegetables, his face leaked a look of pity, and he also sighed: "This is also just a few days after peace, a while ago, there was a general surnamed Zheng, in this battle with the Qing soldiers, tens of thousands of horses and horses were killed from day to night, until more than half of the dead and wounded, leaving more than 10,000 corpses, and then had no choice but to retreat." ”

When Liu Ru heard him say this, his face couldn't help but change slightly, but the shopkeeper didn't notice it, and sighed helplessly, and then said: "Alas~ We, the common people, just want to be stable, watching them fight over and fight over, it's like watching a play, no matter who is the emperor, life still has to be lived anyway~ Just a few days ago, at Xianxia Pass, a person was carried down from above, saying that it was originally a big official of the Ming Dynasty, and now he has become a big official of the Qing Dynasty~ Alas~ So what, it's not like a dream~"

Guan Zhongxiang Qi Huan said: "Cang Liao knows etiquette and knows honor and disgrace when he has enough food and clothing." ”

For most ordinary people, survival is the most important thing, the Ming Dynasty can't give them the most basic survival guarantee, how can they be required to be loyal to the country like the scholars who have been educated by Confucianism? What's more, even the minister of the imperial court, Shilin Saw, also surrendered to the Qing court, as a low-level common man, why can't he choose to bend his knees and live?

Liu Ru listened to the words of the store, and couldn't help but feel gloomy in his heart, he was determined to die, and most of the people now think like this~

Xiao Ying'er at the table listened attentively, and was very interested in the store's words, so she couldn't help asking, "Do you know what that big official's name is?" ”

The shopkeeper heard the words, but couldn't answer, "It seems to be called Ruan ~ Ruan ~ Called Ruan ~"

Spring flowers and autumn moon, a dream, fame and fortune, a dream, success or failure, a dream, the bright moon of the old country, a dream.

Liu Ru naturally knew that the shopkeeper was talking about Ruan Dacheng, but her mind was like a mess, so she put down a few copper plates and left with Xiao Ying'er.

A few days later, they were still not able to reach Xianxia Pass, and after the Duoduo army swept eastern Zhejiang, they stationed troops outside Xianxia Pass, preparing to sweep the southeast in one fell swoop.

Half a month later, Liu Ru and Xiao Ying'er returned to Changshu, and when they arrived at the door of their homes, they happened to meet Qian Qianyi, who had abandoned his official position in Beijing, and looked at each other speechlessly.

When Qian Qianyi returned home, his son complained to Qian Qianyi again, "Father, now that you are in the Qing Dynasty, Mrs. Hedong is coracting with your anti-Qing student, and even leaving home to the south, isn't this going to harm my whole family?" You see~"

Qian Qianyi turned his back and sighed: "The country is ruined, the scholar can't be full, I am a second minister, why do you want to criticize Mrs. Hedong?" ”

When his son heard this, he had to retire in disappointment.

In the early morning of the next day, Liu Ru got up early, but suddenly heard Xiao Ying'er exclaim "Madam", so she hurriedly walked to the door of the backyard, but saw a man wearing a hat and covering his appearance, she couldn't help but wonder: "This gentleman? ”

When the man heard this, he turned around and picked up his hat, and Liu looked at it, and his eyes immediately became hazy.

"I'm here to find Mr. Mu Zhai~" The person who came was Chen Zilong, he saw Liu Rus, and his mind was also turbulent, but he didn't know what to say.

When Liu Ru heard this, he hurriedly took a step back and introduced Chen Zilong into the study.

Qian Qianyi had already heard the movement, walked down from the study building, saw Chen Zilong, his expression was slightly plenish, and then strode up to meet him, and arched his hand: "Brother Zilong, welcome~"

"Mu Weng~" Chen Zilong also said: "On behalf of the righteous people who have restored the Ming Dynasty in Jiangnan, I also welcome you back." ”

Seeing this, Liu Ru knew that they had something important to discuss, so he closed the door and retreated.

At this time, Qian Qianyi and Chen Zilong sat down, and Chen Zilong got straight to the point and said: "Mu Weng~ Presumably I want to come here, you should also know something." Wu Risheng and I have already pulled up a number of people, and now there are about 20,000 people, and the military number is Zhenwu, but there is an urgent shortage of funds, and I don't know the shepherd~"

After the First World War in Suzhou, the Taihu Rebels seized the grain and grass that the Qing court was going to transport to Huguang, which made the grain and grass crisis of the rebels slightly resolved, but hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians, crowded on a small island, would be exhausted sooner or later.

If there is an army, you have to pay money, but the Taihu Righteous Army has no source of money, so Chen Zilong had to go out to find the land south of the Yangtze River, a famous old man, and raise a batch of silver money from him.

Hearing this, Qian Qianyi groaned for a while, and then said, "Brother Zilong, I am very pleased that you can find me. You don't have to worry about the money, but you have to give me a few days to go and raise it. ”

(Thanks to the true ancestor, the death of the special battle, and the reward of Shushan diligent climbing, the group number is 160522963, and there are already eight friends.) ）
