The carriage walked slowly along the official road, which was a little bumpy because it had fallen into disrepair, but for the passengers on the carriage, this slowness relieved the pain of the wound. The pain in the wound may be relieved as the injury is relieved, but the depression in the heart cannot be resolved at any time.

In the past four days, Hu Linyi, who has changed from a dignified court Taoist to a prisoner of the lower ranks, is depressed in his heart, although to a certain extent, he no longer has to worry about the more than 1,000 Lian Yong who followed him all the way from Guizhou to Hubei, let alone worry about his own future, the future, and the future of his hometown in Hunan.

Although now as a prisoner, these problems can not be considered, but there is another problem in front of Hu Linyi now...... Why do you explain it like your father?

Along the way, he thought of Wu Wenrong's death, once upon a time he had not complained about the suicide of the former governor of Huguang, but now it seems that death seems to be the easiest option.

One is dead!

But Hu Linyi was a little unwilling, he was unwilling to die like this, he also achieved a career, for him who was full of ambition, death was the last choice.

Maybe you can take the opportunity to escape on the way!

In the past few days, Hu Linyi had been looking for an opportunity to escape, but he found that these people were extremely guarded, leaving him no chance at all.

In this way, the carriage moved forward slowly, and after several days of trekking through mountains and rivers, it finally came to Xiangyang Wharf, where Hu Linyi changed into a river boat.

After changing to the waterway, the speed is faster than before, the boat goes down the river, the speed is far from being comparable to the carriage, but in just two days, the boat arrived in Wuchang, and the moment he saw the city wall of Wuchang, Hu Linyi knew that he could not escape.

"Hey......"

Before disembarking from the boat, Hu Linyi let out a sigh, by this time most of his injuries had recovered, but his body appeared a little weak, so that when he got off the gangplank, his steps were a little frivolous.

"Master, be careful!"

Hu Qi, the servant who was following him, hurriedly supported him, and then persuaded him lightly.

"Sir, you are relieved, this victory or defeat is a common thing in soldiers......"

At this moment, there was a hearty laugh on the dock,

"Brother Runzhi, you made me wait!"

Hey? Could it be that there are still acquaintances in Wuchang, raising his head and looking at his voice, he was greeted by a young man with a fair face and a good appearance. The garment on which the man wore was neither a robe nor a waistcoat. It was a similar style to the clothes worn by the rebels, but the fabric was different. Who said that the style is weird, but it looks like it, but it is very neat, which makes his whole person look more spiritual.

For Hu Linyi, who has a high ability to recognize people and has an excellent memory, it was only an instant that he knew that he didn't know this person, and he had never even seen it.

Who is this person?

In confusion, Hu Linyi noticed that the area around the dock was full of guards, this young man was obviously not an ordinary person!

"I'm Zhu Yifeng!"

Seeing the doubts on Hu Linyi's face, Zhu Yifeng revealed his identity.

"Ah...... You are the Zhu ......."

When the words came to his lips, He Lin Yi regretted it a little, didn't he point to the monk and shout at the bald donkey?

But this person is really too young, that is, this person is in charge of an army of 100,000, and in just a few months, almost the entire Hubei has entered the station?

Yes, it was this young man in front of him who defeated himself.

To be precise, it was only a few hundred of his soldiers who defeated him.

This feeling of powerlessness was even stronger when facing him at this time, so much so that Hu Linyi finally smiled bitterly.

"Hu, he is just a general of the defeated army, how dare he wait here for a long time."

At this moment, Hu Linyi was a little truly relieved, not as depressed as before.

If you lose, you lose.

At least the person in front of him did not take the opportunity to humiliate himself, and he did not humiliate himself when he wanted to be defeated by him.

"Brother Runzhi, victory or defeat is a common thing in soldiers, so why bother with it? In this Brother Runzhi, his defeat is really not a crime of war, but the will of heaven! ”

This is the first time that Zhu Yifeng personally came to lobby others, although at the beginning, he had killed Hu Linyi, but this killing intent was mostly because of Hu Linyi's talent, worried that this person would be used by the Qing court, and then threaten himself.

But in the end, he decided to try again to persuade Hu Linyi to surrender to him, after all, there was no talent like him around him.

"Providence?"

Hu Linyi looked at Zhu Yifeng in surprise, as if he didn't understand the meaning of the other party's words.

"That's right, it's providence!"

Zhu Yifeng nodded and said solemnly.

"Oh? It seems that in the opinion of Governor Zhu, Governor Zhu is a man of destiny! ”

What is providence?

In Hu Linyi's opinion, it is nothing more than the mandate of heaven, since the other party mentioned the will of heaven, then it is impossible for him to use slightly mocking words at this time to argue with him about this providence!

Throughout the ages, how many people who have started an incident have thought that they are destined for heaven, but in the end it is just a sweet dream. In his opinion, the so-called destiny is nothing more than the words of a country fool fooling the world, and it cannot be taken seriously, and this person seems to be nothing more than that!

Just when Hu Linyi was in a good mood and was about to argue with this Wuchang Xinhe Wharf and this so-called "Grand Governor", he only heard the other party laugh in a hearty laugh that was incommensurate with his age.

"Destiny? Zhu has no such blessing, and he dares to say that the destiny of heaven is tied to one person! How can this destiny be tied to one person and one surname in the world? The providence in Zhu's mouth is the clear and righteous path between heaven and earth, and it is definitely not related to one person, one family, one surname! ”

Looking at each other in surprise, Hu Linyi's eyes were a little puzzled, but in his incomprehension, he only heard a sonorous and favorable words.

"Zhu raised troops for the right way of heaven and earth, for the right way of my China, what is the mandate of heaven? The Mandate of Heaven is the destiny of our nation, what is the right way, and it is the way of our nation! For hundreds of years, the Manchu aliens enslaved my nation, enslaved my people, fooled my people, and the most unjust and tragic thing in China today is to take the foreign Manchu Qing as the king, and our people seek wealth and nobility, wagging their tails and begging for mercy, kneeling and kowtowing nine times, and immersing themselves in it, not knowing their shame, not knowing their own understanding, recognizing the thief as their father, saying that the destiny of heaven is in the Qing Dynasty, and it should be so, but how can China's destiny be in the foreign barbarians? At this time, Zhu raised an army, and what he did was not the wealth of one person and one family, but what he did was to protect my China, the whole of my Han nationality, to expel the Tartars, and to restore the orthodoxy of China. ”

When it comes to debate, or understanding of ancient texts, even ten Zhu Yifeng may not be as good as Hu Linyi, but compared to him, his greatest strength is that he has grasped the high point of morality, and this supreme is the nation!

Even if the Manchu officials could not mention the "Manchu and Han", they could not turn a blind eye to it, in fact, for ordinary people, the emperor was full of Han, they didn't care, they were just the masters who paid taxes and grain. It is precisely these scholars who really care, but in the past, they turned a blind eye to it, and they chose to ignore it, but now, Zhu Yifeng combines this orthodoxy with the mandate of heaven to explain his victory, even if Hu Linyi has the talent to reach the sky, he can't refute his words. Even because of his words, he was in a trance.

What is the Way of Heaven? What is Destiny?

"Therefore, Runzhi's defeat today is really the destiny of heaven! Please don't mind Runzhi! ”

As soon as the words turned sharply, Zhu Yifeng's solemnity immediately turned into a smile on his face, and behind this smile, there was a heartfelt pride.

This change in expression only made Hu Linyi unable to adapt for a while, and while he was uncertain, he sucked Zhu Yifeng and said.

"Runzhi just have a good rest and take care of his injuries, as for the rest, don't think about it for the time being, stay for a while, you and I will discuss today's unfinished words!"

What the?

Why is that?

Until Zhu Yifeng said goodbye and left, Hu Linyi didn't even react, so that the words he had originally prepared to refute Zhu Yifeng were forcibly interrupted by his move.

"How can it be!"

Hu Linyi was annoyed, realizing that he was still a prisoner, but he didn't know that in fact, all this was deliberately arranged by Zhu Yifeng, because Zhu Yifeng knew very well that maybe he could uphold the national righteousness, but for the Chinese people who had been ruled by the Manchus for more than 200 years, they had long regarded the Manchu Qing as orthodox, and as for the Manchu Dynasty, there were too many royal boneless disciples who explained to them what was the "way of heaven", what was the "mandate of heaven", and explained how the Manchus "obtained the mandate of heaven", but Zhu Yifeng had no intention of wasting his tongue on this issue. On the contrary, he took the initiative to leave time and opportunity for the other party to be ready to lobby him.

Don't do what he thinks.

But how can you not want to?

It was only after Hu Linyi got into the carriage again, and after the carriage entered the city and stopped again, he found that he was not sent to a prison in Wuchang City, but a mansion, and even outside the mansion, there were no soldiers to guard it.

Could it be that the Governor of Zhu just let himself go?

Put, of course not, just when Hu Linyi had this thought in his heart, the door of the mansion opened, and he walked out of a gatehouse, and the gatekeeper had a smile on his face.

"Mr. Hu, this is your residence in the future, most of my family governors ask you to recuperate here with peace of mind, if you need anything, just tell the little old man to ......"

This Wuchang prison does not need to be entered, but it does not mean that Hu Linyi has been free, just as he sighed in his heart, he listened to the porter again.

"In addition to Mr. Hu, there are also your old friends who live here for a while, I don't know who Mr. Hu is......"

Before he could finish speaking, he heard a surprise shout from the courtyard.

"Runzhi!" (To be continued.) )
