Chapter 22: A Failed Marriage Proposal
Coming out of the yamen, Wang Guangxian and others rushed up to congratulate him on his escape from prison
The interrogation process had already spread that day, and everyone was quite sympathetic to hearing that this wronged young man actually captured the leader of the local thugs and destroyed his lair, and now led the villagers to resist the payment of taxes.
Wang Guangxian couldn't help but force each other bitterly, and for the sake of the scholars, he stood up like this, and every day a squire came to the yamen to intercede, hoping that Chen Shiqi, the governor of Sichuan who was stationed in Shunqing Mansion to command the bandits, would come forward to intervene.
The government initially ignored it and behaved very toughly.
The prefect Shi Jinchen sent Shunqing Mansion garrison Chen Yingrui to lead 500 officers and soldiers to bomb the pressure, but was ambushed by Yang Wei and others on the way, and the lost troops were defeated.
After that, Yao Tiandong, the big boss of the local rioters, and Huang Long, the second leader, led tens of thousands of people to leave Bazhou, Dazhou, and approached Pengzhou.
Due to the shortage of military salaries, all the soldiers and horses did not move forward, and now the local tyrants have successively captured the three counties of Xiangru, Yingshan, and Yilong in Pengzhou, and the governor Chen Shiqi has tried his best to release Yang Lin from the prison cell, hoping to win the hearts of the local squires.
Everyone sighed, and some envied Yang Lin's good luck, and now he actually became an official because of a blessing in disguise.
And Yang Lin understood the reason, that is, in order to recruit his hundreds of soldiers, the government hoped to use his reputation to raise grain and grass for the army.
Due to the fact that there were two bureaus of soldiers and horses weapons and equipment that needed to be handed over, Yang Lin had to stay patiently in Fucheng to hand over.
On this day, when he came to Fan's house, Fan Mingshan, who was in prison and was in prison, took the lead in responding, and he should be grateful no matter what.
This is a large courtyard with five entrances and five exits, and there are many small courtyards next to it, which can be regarded as a large family in Fucheng.
Entering the door, the family led down the long corridor to the lobby, and after meeting Fan Mingshan, the other party clapped his hands, and several maids came out with tea and fruit.
A fragrance came to his nose, Yang Lin turned his head to look at the maid in front of him, a tall man, his face turned to the side for fear that others would see it, he was wondering, who knew that the other party stretched out his right arm and attacked him.
Yang Lin hurriedly raised his hand to block it, although the body deity liked to dance with guns and sticks before crossing, but his kung fu was unusual.
But who would have expected that the other party's move was a false move, the other party's right hand quickly retracted, and the left hand serving the tea quickly passed forward, and the teacup came to him.
Yang Lin's big hand touched the teacup to block it, but the opponent was very strong, not only did not block it, but took two steps back to stabilize his body.
What is strange is that the other party did not deceive at all, but stood next to him and laughed non-stop, Yang Lin put down the chair he grabbed and looked at Fan Mingshan at the top and said: "Brother Fan, this, what does this mean?" ”
Fan Mingshan glared at the woman fiercely, and arched his hand: "Brother Ruzhen, please forgive me, this is the little sister Daiyun, who likes to fight and kill since she was a child, and she doesn't wrap her feet, like a big-footed maid, which makes people really worry."
Since the death of his father the year before last, there has been no one to discipline him, I don't hear that the virtuous brother and young hero captured the bandit leader and destroyed his lair, this is not today pretending to be a maid to test martial arts.
Little sister, this is for my brother's guest, you, you are so nonsense today, quickly apologize to Brother Xian for admitting your mistake. ”
Fan Daiyun shook her head again and again, and said with a nonchalant face: "In the past month, many people have said that you are both civil and military, so it seems that it is not uncommon." ”
Yang Lin smiled and arched his hand and said: "Miss's lesson is that in addition to studying, I like to climb mountains and mountains with my fellow villagers, hunt and hunt, and like to dance with guns and sticks on weekdays, but when it comes to martial arts, it is really ordinary and no different from ordinary people." ”
The other party didn't believe it, shook his head with wide eyes, and said: "You deceive people, your martial arts are so commonplace, how can you capture the Tianxing Liang Leopard and destroy the nest of the soil tyrant?" ”
Returning to his seat, he took a sip on the coffee table on the desk, and put it down: "Miss Mingjian, although martial arts are commonplace, who told you that a general must be a top master?" ”
Fan Daiyun looked at each other with wide eyes, shook his head and said, "So, what is that?" ”
Yang Lin said with a smile: "If this is the case, then it is very simple to fight a war, and every time you choose a general, you can first fight internally and choose the highest martial arts?"
Fighting a war is not a solitary battle, fighting is a life-and-death battle between everyone, although the level of martial arts is very important, but there are many other important factors. ”
Shaking her head, still quite confused, Fan Daiyun asked, "Then why is it often said like this in the commentary?" ”
Yang Lin smiled and arched his hand: "Miss, storytelling is a lie." ”
shook his head again and again, looking unconvinced, and in the end, Fan Daiyun said mockingly: "Anyway, you, your kung fu is still ordinary?" ”
Thinking of his three-legged cat kung fu, Yang Lin nodded in agreement.
Fan Mingshan had no choice but to apologize on the side, but Fan Daiyun still didn't give up and asked again and again.
Although he has been in contact with a lot of women since the crossing, his temper is completely incompatible with each other, although this Fan Daiyun was very abrupt at first, like the silly aunt in his previous life, he was quite superstitious about storytelling, but it was not too surprising to the crossing clan.
Yang Lin deliberately showed off, first said "Sun Tzu's Art of War" and other military books, after seeing that the other party shook his head again and again and felt incomprehensible, and then some modern knowledge.
Fan Mingshan and the others didn't think about it at first, but after listening carefully, they felt the subtlety.
Yang Lin was a military enthusiast in his previous life, and he deliberately studied it in the past few months, and his knowledge was far beyond that of people in the late Ming Dynasty.
Yang Lin talked eloquently, answered all questions, and sometimes explained the physical objects on the spot in order to let the other party understand, and everyone was amazed and amazed.
After chatting like this for an hour, everyone couldn't stop eating at noon, looking at the two people in front of the hall, Fan Mingshan quipped: "Little sister, Ruzhen is my honored guest, you break the sand pot like this and ask in the end, if others will never get off the stage, look at it now that you are always persuaded by Ruzhen."
Look at you, you're seventeen or eighteen now, and you don't bind your feet, you dance with guns and sticks all day long, and it's hard to find your mother-in-law's house for your brother in the future. ”
When his brother said this, Fan Daiyun was quite annoyed, and kicked his feet fiercely and said, "Brother, you, why do you say me in front of others?" ”
Everyone laughed, Yang Lin put away his smile, stood up and bowed his hand to Fan Mingshan and said: "Brother Fan, the younger brother has been poor since he was a child, and although he is over twenty years old, he has not been married.
The younger brother is only shallow in learning, and his martial arts are sparse, but today he sees that Ling Mei is beautiful and generous, simple and lovely, and I really like it very much in my heart. ”
Fan Mingshan originally had this intention, but now when he heard Yang Lin say this, he looked at his sister who was standing on the side with a flushed face and said, "Xiaoyun, although the eldest brother is like a father, my brother has already said that this matter needs your approval."
Ru Zhen is a young hero, he is really one of the few talents he has seen in his brother's body, and now he likes you quite a lot, you say, your opinion is.... ”
When Fan Daiyun heard this, she was even more shy, whispered to her brother and then hid her face and left.
Fan Mingshan was overjoyed, and immediately invited his mother Liu, and his second brother Fan Mingliang, and Liu was also very happy, but the premise was to abandon martial arts and follow literature, that is, to raise people in high school.
Yang Lin shook his head and said: "Auntie, now that the Liukou are crisscrossing the Central Plains, the Tartars have invaded the capital many times, and the people of the world are disturbing, the eldest husband should stand up to the sky to save the people from fire and water, how can he ignore the things outside the window and study hard to be a Taiping scholar?" ”
Liu's words choked and said: "The old body is also a good girl, and the girl's father has also been an official to the garrison, and he led the army to recruit the rebels during the rebellion of Ming An Bangyan, and unfortunately died in ambush, leaving Ming Shan Mingliang and the girl three, mother and son four people depend on each other, and the hardships during the period are insignificant to outsiders."
The old body's wish in life is to hope that the girl can be safe, not like the old body. ”
Yang Lin was shocked in his heart, and sighed: "What my aunt said is reasonable, since the little nephew has joined the army, he has already sold his life to the emperor's family, how dare he be selfish and affect the young lady for life?"
Someone once said that loving someone does not mean marrying home, but being genuinely good to her. I didn't believe it in the past, but now I do. ”
After saying that, he hugged his fists and prepared to leave, everyone was shocked, Fan Mingshan took his hand and said: "Ruzhen, you are only twenty years old to become a food student, as long as you study hard for two or three years, you will definitely be promoted in high school, for the sake of the little sister, you have the right to accept your mother." ”
Yang Lin sighed: "If it is a peaceful and prosperous world, it is not impossible, but the world is full of people, how can the eldest husband live up to the ..... of God, although the blessings and disasters are impermanent, but since God has arranged it like this, the younger brother has no choice but to do so." ”
Liu glared at the other party, and suddenly patted Fan Daiyun's shoulder and said, "Girl, the other party doesn't have you in his heart at all, the other party is just acting on the spot."
If the other party really falls in love with you at first sight, why can't you study hard to gain fame? The world is so big, as if the sky would fall without him. ”
Fan Daiyun sobbed, Yang Lin cried bitterly, and in the end, he only bowed deeply, and then turned around and left the place of right and wrong.
