Chapter 52: Breaking

readx;?“ Husband, what happened to Fan Liuyuan and Bai Tassel in the end? ”

Back at home, a sumptuous dinner has already been prepared. Writing "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info eating, Chen Wen mentioned the first performance of the art troupe today, but compared with the past, Zhou Yueying began to pay attention to the love story of such infatuated men and women in the big era, which made Chen Wen quite surprised.

Perhaps, marriage is not only about emotions and **, but also about the soul.

This emotion came to mind, rinsed his mouth, Chen Wen took Zhou Yueying's hand into the study, took out one of the books on the shelf, and handed it to her.

Under the candlelight, Qianqian's hands turned page by page, and the usual pretty face with a plain face appeared with a complex look as the story unfolded step by step, like joy and sorrow, joy and sorrow, occasional shallow smile, or E Dai frowned slightly, between this smile, Chen Wen sat quietly watching the beauty in front of him focus on the story, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but skim a smile.

"Husband......

Stretched out his hand and handed over the book, but his cheeks were slightly red, which was even more attractive against the background of his fair skin. After taking the book, Chen Wen did not put it back in its place, but casually put it on the table and continued to enjoy the beautiful scenery in front of him.

In the past, Su Shi said: Looking at the mountains upstairs, looking at the snow at the head of the city, looking at the flowers in front of the lamp, looking at the xia in the boat, and seeing the beauties under the moon, it is another scene. Now it seems that this Mr. Dongpo's talent really lives up to the praise of later generations. ”

On the surface, Chen Wen was praising Su Shi, but what he was actually talking about, how could Zhou Yueying not know. Her eyelashes drooped, and she was more shy than before, but after a moment, she suddenly raised her head, and her eyes were full of doubts.

"Husband, is this really what Mr. Dongpo said?"

"Isn't it?"

Hearing Zhou Yueying's question, Chen Wen was not sure, after all, compared to his lady who was full of poetry and books, the source of his knowledge that could barely be called miscellaneous was quite complicated, and it was impossible to determine whether it was true or not.

"Your husband and I are martial artists, and we are not academics, it doesn't matter if it's right or not."

"Hmph, I know that my husband made it up, and I pretended to be Mr. Dongpo, but I said that I was illiterate."

Pulled the beautiful woman with a small mouth into his arms, sniffed the intoxicating fragrance, and then leaned into his ear and whispered: "The truth is right, this is the most important thing." ”

The scorching breath blew on the pinna, and Zhou Yueying's breathing became a little short, but the next moment, I saw her get up and stand up suddenly, and her little face seemed to be a little round.

"Okay, I know it's the study, but I can't help it."

Zhou Yueying, who couldn't help but say it, was flushed, and saw that with the help of her slightly messy sideburns, her expression would soon return to normal.

"My husband says he knows every time, but every time he can't remember when he needs to, he is used to bullying his concubine."

It has been several months since she got married, and she already knows a lot about Chen Wen's temperament. At this moment, it's not so much anger as coquettishness.

In this regard, Chen Wen also knows that most of the ancient and modern women are the same in this regard, and they are very angry, but in fact, they may not be really angry, but it is enough for you to show concession or concern. Of course, it's also a good choice to do something so that she can't hold back that momentum anymore.

"Who made my daughter-in-law look handsome?"

With the next two smirks, a stupid country boy who had just married his daughter-in-law looked at Zhou Yueying for a moment, and then only heard her "poof", just covered his mouth and smiled, no matter how angry he wanted, he no longer had that atmosphere.

"It's a shame that the husband is still a prince of the country, with tens of thousands of iron armor under his command, and now he is the pillar of optimus that supports the southeast half of the wall for the Ming Dynasty. Having said that, it was full of sweetness when he said it, after all, this appearance was only for her, and it was only for her. The four words of uniqueness dripped into her heart like honey.

The young couple laughed for a moment, and Zhou Yueying remembered what she wanted to say just now: "This story is indeed very true, the alleys in the Fan family and the Bai family, even the concubine body has also heard of it, and the place where the Bai family lives is not far from the concubine's mother's house, and I have also passed by it when I went to the incense before." There are also Zhu Fuzun of Jinhua Mansion and Chen Sili of Shaoxing Mansion, and the concubines have also heard of it. ”

Zhu Meixi was the prefect of Jinhua Mansion at that time, and he was quite interested in literary affairs when he was in Jinhua, and he also held several large gatherings between local scholars, including Zhou Jingting, who was very normal to hear about it as a younger sister. And Chen Zilong, who had quelled the Xudu Rebellion at the beginning, was still one of the three sons of Yunjian and the six sons of several societies, and his literary reputation was prosperous in Jiangnan, and many deep ladies also knew about this person, and even some secretly admired him, such as her aunt......

"The concubine remembers that I heard my aunt mention it before, that Chen Sili seems to know Yang Yinglian, a famous prostitute in Jiangnan, but he can't stay together......"

Yang Yinglian is now Hedong Jun Liu, and it is said that he had not changed his name and surname when he intersected with Chen Zilong. Chen Wen had also heard of the story that Zhou Yueying said, but when he mentioned Liu Ruyi, he seemed to remember something, and the interest in talking about the world just now was gone.

"Husband?" Her man's face changed slightly, how could Zhou Yueying not see it, but she didn't understand what caused Chen Wen's unhappiness, and she asked softly at this moment.

"That Yang Yinglian, now called Liu Ruyi, married Qian Muzhai twelve years ago."

At this time, it was an elegant thing for a scholar to associate with such a famous prostitute, and it was not uncommon for a talented and beautiful woman to be accepted as a concubine, but when Qian Qianyi married Liu Ruyi, he greeted Liu Ru with the gift of a concubine when the original marriage room was still there, which was an immoral thing at that time. In particular, Qian Qianyi's literary name at that time was already the head of the Southeast Wenzong, and the impact was naturally greater.

This incident was a sensation at the time, and Zhou Yueying, who was still young at that time, had also heard of it. Speaking this time, in fact, she deliberately avoided Liu Ruyi's name, but Chen Wen suddenly thought of Qian Qianyi, but she was still surprised.

"That money, no, but the three rounds are different now?"

Qian Qianyi's identity and reputation, if something big happens to him, it will soon spread all over the country, Chen Wen's expression is not only that Qian Qianyi has an accident, but it is more likely that there is a problem in the third game of the catalpa and he doesn't think about it at all.

"The three bureaus are still the same, just a few of them, but now they have their own thoughts, and the three will be in Nanjing."

"Oh."

Today's various departments of the Ming army have their own interests, and Zhou Yueying and Chen Wen have more or less heard of these things, and she has not placed much hope on the strategy of the three bureaus that requires the cooperation of several forces to succeed.

But for Chen Wen, he was eager to cooperate with various forces to fight against the Qing army on Dalan Mountain, but he was squeezed out, and later invited Li Dingguo to join forces to attack Jiangxi, but he was politely refused.

"Sun Kewang, I never counted on it. It's just that today Zheng Tai and I mentioned trade matters, among them, he ordered two kinds of weapons and one kind of armor from Chen Wen, and even brought the drawings, which really opened Chen Wen's eyes. It's just that tomorrow he will set off to return to Fujian, not to mention that he has joined forces to attack Fujian, even the three bureaus of Catalpa have never mentioned it, what is the surname behind him thinking in his head, I'm afraid it's self-explanatory. ”

"So what?"

is not as good as later generations, now in Zhou Yueying's eyes, Sun Kewang, Zheng Chenggong and even Li Dingguo, they have not yet closed the coffin, but they are just some warlords, even if her husband is also a warlord now, in her opinion, these people are not as good as - without him, Chen Wen has been self-made all the way, and he has already achieved such achievements in the southeast battlefield in just three years; Those people are either the remnants of the rogue who started by inheriting the legacy of the traitor Zhang Xianzhong, or the son of the largest maritime merchant and pirate in the southeast, the son of a Fujian warlord who once had more than 200,000 troops, and cannot be compared with her husband at all.

Without this admiration for national heroes and the desire to cooperate with heroes from the heart, or rather, because he has never had this burden, Zhou Yueying can see it more clearly than Chen Wen, a traverser.

"Today's situation in the four southeastern provinces has become better and better in the Ming Dynasty, and these are all made by the husband and the tens of thousands of officials and soldiers under the command of the husband, step by step, in the cracks of the siege of the heavy Tartar army. In the future, Daming will be able to prosper, and the husband will also be the biggest hero. If the three rounds can be completed, the husband will give Qian Yushan a face; If it can't be done, without them, wouldn't our Zhejiang Wang Shi not go to the Northern Expedition? ”

As soon as these words entered his ears, Chen Wendeng was stunned, and when he tasted the three flavors carefully, he stood up all of a sudden, and looked at the woman in front of him with wide eyes.

"The concubine has lost her words, and she hopes that her husband will forgive her sins."

Chen Wen's reaction startled Zhou Yueying, in fact, once she blurted out these inner words, she also regretted saying them too tactfully. When she saw Chen Wen's reaction, she was even more startled and hurriedly fell to the ground.

In the study, Chen Wen and Zhou Yueying stood and knelt down, and even the air seemed to be stagnant. After a while, Chen Wen helped Zhou Yueying up, and then kissed deeply on the cherry lips.

Zhou Yueying never imagined that Chen Wen would be like this, her eyes widened, and she was stunned, letting Chen Wen hold her in her arms, as if she wanted to merge the two into one. It wasn't until a long time later, when the kiss ended, Chen Wen was no longer as gloomy as he was just now, and even the temperament of the whole person seemed to be sublimated.

"Lady, you are really my Chen Wen's female Zhuge . Indeed, as you said, without him Zheng Butcher, would my surname Chen still have to eat hairy pigs. ”

In the hearty laughter, the burden that had been accumulated in his chest for many years disappeared, and Chen Wen's momentum rose to the sky.

At this moment, in Zhou Yueying's eyes, if Chen Wen in the past was just hiding the sword in the sheath, hiding the edge in the word Qiuquan, this moment of sudden change, what she saw was as if a sword was unsheathed, up to the sky!

………………

Early the next morning, Chen Wen took the civil and military officials of the Xiuguo Mansion and Jinhua Mansion out of the city to bid farewell to Zheng Taihe, who had returned to Fujian, and the Xuanzhao envoy who had traveled with him and then returned to Guiyang.

Their group would take a boat at the Wujiang Wharf, pass through the Dongyang River and Qujiang River, and then enter Chuzhou by land, and arrive at Sanpan along the Oujiang River to join the fleet. Along the way, the inland river divisions of Zhejiang and the garrisons of Chuzhou and Wenzhou will escort them forward, and the post system of Quzhou, Chuzhou and Wenzhou will take care of their drinking and water needs, and they will not lose their courtesy.

At Wujiang Wharf, the crowd of people seeing off had arrived, and Chen Wen and Zheng Tai also walked arm-in-arm, until the send-off wine was introduced, Zheng Tai and his party boarded the warship, but before getting on the boat, Zheng Tai still added a sentence repeatedly, in order to deepen Chen Wen's greater impression.

"Furen, Brother Fool will go back this time, and the purchased silver will be delivered in April next year at the latest, and I hope to pay more attention to that matter."

"Brother, can't you believe it?"

"Brother Fool never meant this, but this matter is really important, and I hope Furen will forgive Brother Fool for saying too much."

"Brother and relaxed, back to Fujian also for me to inform Damu, since I have responded to this matter, then I will never lose my word, and I will always prepare that batch of goods on schedule."

Zheng Tai has handed over the matter of trade to a household official named Yang Ying, who is fully responsible for the large-scale procurement of the Fujian Ming Army and the follow-up cooperation between the two sides. With Chen Wen's repeated assurances this time, Zheng Tai was also completely relieved, and finally embarked on the return journey after boarding the warship.

Zheng Tai, to be precise, Zheng Chenggong's request for Chen Wen's help, is a large-scale manufacture of armor and two weapons, for which he did not hesitate to propose that before April next year, no matter how much the manufacturing is completed, Zheng Tai will come with the full purchase price. It can be seen that it attaches great importance to these weapons and armor.

Zheng Chenggong asked for two weapons, one was a Lu Mi gun, and the other was a long-handled horse chopping knife.

These two kinds of weapons, Lu Mi Gong is the standard equipment of the Ming army in Zhejiang today, and Zheng Chenggong has heard of it. Compared with the bird guns that Zheng Jun is equipped with today, whether it is a Japanese-made iron cannon or a large number of self-made and captured bird guns sold by the Zhejiang Ming Army, although the Lu Mi gun still belongs to the kind of light arquebus with a thinner barrel and a smaller projectile, compared with the former, the Lu Mi gun has a longer range and greater lethality, and it is bound to occupy a certain advantage in the face of the Qing army's gunners who are still dominated by bird guns.

In Chen Wen's army, because the flintlock gun machine has already been successfully developed but the output is pitiful, only the Nantang battalion has completely completed the reloading, and the second batch of Lu Mi guns equipped with the flintlock gun machine for the guard battalion are still being manufactured, and if you want to use it, you will have to see you next year.

The flintlock gun was not enough for itself, and Chen Wen naturally couldn't make it for Zheng Chenggong in large quantities, so he just gave two short flintlock handcuffs to Zheng Chenggong and Zheng Tai as gifts. The goods ordered this time are also the original Lu Mi guns of the arquebus machine. Of course, the chopping knife on the butt of the gun was also canceled, because this thing was simply wasted.

If Lu Mi Gong can be equipped in large quantities, the Fujian Ming army will definitely get a certain degree of improvement in firepower in the face of the Qing army. However, before the popularization of machine guns and rapid-fire guns, hand-to-hand combat was the main theme of the battlefield, and Zheng Chenggong, who had been fighting with the Manchus for many years, naturally did not indulge in firearms like those scholars, so he had a second weapon ordered in large quantities - the horse chopping knife.

It's just that when Chen Wen heard Zheng Tai's request at that time, especially after seeing the drawings with his own eyes, although his face was not good, the shock in his heart was incomprehensible.
