Chapter 565: The First One to Subdue
Twenty lashes were given to his back, seemingly criss-crossed, and his skin was peeling, but Shulhazy, who was only ten years old, gritted his teeth and remained silent until he fainted after the last beating. Because the Li family members are the most familiar with these, before the execution, he was given a hard cowhide apron from the waist down, and the injury was only his back, theoretically speaking, it would not affect the horseback riding, and the tortured family knew that he couldn't bear it, so he reduced his strength by five points. But when he was put back into the room, cleaned the wound and applied medicine, he was still stimulated by the pain in his heart and woke up from fainting.
"Hmm......"
"When I was beaten, I was hard, but when I took the medicine, I knew it hurt? You deserve it, and you just run out casually and tell you that you can take you to escape, but you believe it? Fool, if it weren't for the petty officials begging for mercy, you would be dead! Zhao San Mazi said as he applied the ointment to the whip marks that had been cleaned up with his hands and feet. Seeing that Shulhaqi was holding on to the sheets under him, he didn't snort anymore, but he continued regardless of it, "I will have such good luck every time I have a long memory in the future. Forget about pleading later, if it weren't for the petty officials who said to Li Dagongzi that they were just trying to scare you, you would have been tortured to death a long time ago! ”
Li Erlong was sitting on a chair with a back at this moment. The things in the restaurant this evening were designed by him according to Wang Fulin's instructions, and he was the only one who knew about it, and the so-called questions and answers with a sense of alcohol were also directed and acted by himself with a false voice, and even Shulhaqi suddenly had abdominal pain at that time, and that was what he did a little bit of. It's just that although I hate this little guy who is radical and vicious, and has a very bad mouth, and is a foreigner, I can see the tragic situation of flesh and blood just now. He was still a little helpless.
After all, before he was not so much a rectification as a trick, which made people feel bitter and couldn't speak, in contrast, the whipping was a more bloody lynching than the beating in the army. So. He knew best what was going on, and when he thought that Nurhachi could find a way to get himself out as quickly as possible after learning of his brother's "death", and he also fully expressed his grief with fainting, he felt that the beating of this kid in front of him was really good for no reason. However, even he, the designer, was still confused when he thought about it, and he didn't understand what Wang Fulin was going to do with this.
If he couldn't figure it out, he didn't want to think about it, so he stood up with his legs stretched out and stood on the edge of the kang. Seeing that Zhao San Mazi was still scolding and scolding on the medicine, and Shuerhaqi, who was clenching his teeth, was already full of blood, he couldn't stand it, he casually took out a handkerchief and stuffed it into his mouth, and then patted it on the head: "I can't help but say it directly, the next thing is up to you, the road from Liaoyang to Shenyang is not close, it is not far, if you fall off the horse." You yourself know the consequences. Also, your eldest brother has been affected by you a lot this time. After you were beaten, he was also dragged out and whipped five times...... If you have to be smart, don't bother him anymore. ”
This was said according to Wang Fulin's instructions, and although Li Erlong was a little puzzled, he still did as he was told. As soon as these words came out, he keenly noticed that Shulhazy's face seemed to be whiter. Then he didn't continue to draw snakes, but went straight out of the back room, and Fan Dou, who had gotten along with Shuerhaqi the most in the past few days and was proficient in the language, went in to watch, and he went to report the situation here to Wang Fulin truthfully.
Today's toss is half a night. It will definitely be impossible to set off on the road tomorrow, so Wang Fulin told Li Erlong to take care of him, and after waiting for him to retire, he stretched his waist. He didn't bother to inquire about the scene on Li Rusong's side at all, thinking that Li Rusong would never casually rectify his family's dependence on the Great Wall because of the words of the two Jurchen brothers, and see if there was any mole.
To be honest, at that time, he carefully observed Nurhachi's expression inside, and saw the right time to release the "death news", but he really didn't expect Nurhachi's performance to be not only wonderful, but also to make such an excuse in a hurry. Sure enough, when a person is alive, the younger brother who naturally depends on each other is very important, but since a person is dead, it is his own life and death that are the most important. Although it can't be said that he can separate these two brothers who depend on each other in three moments, but if a thorn is pierced, he will not let it be easily removed. After all, it is not so easy to kill people under Li Rusong's nose.
Moreover, although he failed to test the true intentions of the Li family for three moments, he also tested one thing, that is, the Li family really has a high tolerance for the brothers. It seems that it is useful to raise people, this is certain.
It's just that he just went back to the back room with a yawn, and was about to go to bed and hug his wife to sleep well, when Bizhu's voice suddenly came from the outer room: "Little official, someone knocked on the door and said it was Ahha." ”
Bizhu's title is sometimes uncle, sometimes petty official, and the end is varied according to the character occasion, Wang Fulin not only doesn't care, but thinks it's very interesting, when Xiaobei wanted to correct the title, he was stopped by him. At this moment, hearing such a person from her, Wang Fulin couldn't help but be surprised. He thought about it, then turned around and walked to the bed, and saw that Xiaobei had fallen asleep on his side, so he smiled and pulled the person over, kissed him on the cheek, and then said softly: "You go to bed early, don't wait for me." ”
Seeing that Wang Fulin turned around and went out of the door, Xiao Bei turned around and faced the outside angrily: "Whoever wants to wait for you, you can come up with many bad ideas in the blink of an eye, and whoever commits you will be unlucky!" ”
In her opinion, the brothers Nurhachi and Shulhaqi had only greatly offended Wang Fulin in the design of the racecourse before, even if Wang Fulin had mentioned other reasons, she still didn't believe how much grievance might be between the three people who had never known each other before? What's more, those two are still young, although they are a little quick and smart, but how can they be as old as Wang Fulin at the beginning?
When he came to see Wang Fulin in the middle of the night, Aha looked very cramped and uneasy, especially when he saw Bizhu dressed as a woman, he hung his head low, for fear of seeing a place that he shouldn't see. It wasn't until the person avoided the back room, and Wang Fulin sat down, that after he took a deep breath, he said in a slightly trembling voice: "When Gongzi leaves Liaodong in the future, can you take me with you?" ”
"Why? Why? ”
It was a simple six words, but Aha was pale, and it took a while before he said with difficulty: "I don't want to be a slave, a cow and a horse like I used to do in Jianzhou, and I'm afraid that if I don't do it well, I will lose my life." I don't want to be treated as a prisoner of war, driven to do this and that like a cow or horse, or like Nuer Hachi and Suer Hachi, who almost lose their heads because of a small mistake, and then be beaten to death. I...... I want to know what I can do while I live, I want to change the name Ahha, I want to be a person. ”
Hearing such words and phrases from the mouth of Ahha, who was deferential to the extreme, a slave was long and a slave was short, and even his name was the lowest meaning, Wang Fulin couldn't help laughing: "Who taught you these?" ”
Aha suddenly knelt down and shook his head into a rattle: "No one taught me, I thought so myself!" Uncle Li took care of me very much, never treated me as a slave, and he also talked about my mother...... He said that if my mother had not been taken captive to Gule Village, she would definitely find a good man to marry, and she would definitely love me and love me with my father...... "Unconsciously, he couldn't cry, and the whole person was lying on his body.
"I thought about whether to stay in Liaodong as a soldier, but I tried hard to talk and chat with those family members around Master Li, but they all regarded me as a Jurchen slave cub and didn't even look at me directly. When I was in the Liaodong General Military Mansion, everywhere I went, it seemed that someone was pointing and poking at the back, and only Gongzi and the people around me were kind to me. I know, I know. Therefore, I hope that Gongzi can be very kind and take me away from Liaodong, far away from the Jurchen, and far away from my mother's hometown...... I am a person who doesn't matter, and unlike those two brothers, Li Dashuai definitely doesn't care. ”
Hearing this, Wang Fulin finally determined that it was indeed right to let Li Erlong take this kid, those veterans of the Zhejiang army were different from those of the vassal Li family, they had fought and had been praised to the sky by others, but they had also been treated coldly, and after following him, they still maintained the habit of being cautious when they should be, and they were usually very aggressive, which was very suitable for correcting the personality of a young slave. However, he still didn't agree immediately, but laughed: "You just said why, and you haven't answered my latter question, why?" I just went to Liaodong for a turn, why should I open this mouth to Li Dashuai or Li Dagongzi for you? ”
"I ......" Aha only felt a cold wind sweep through his body in an instant, and his whole body was almost freezing. After a long time, his eyes suddenly lit up, straightened up and said, "I am familiar with the ...... outside Fushun Pass."
"I finally remember, if it weren't for your words, how would I have asked you to come over?" Wang Fulin smiled and nodded, "Get up and speak first, I'm not your former master Wang Gao, I don't break the rules so much." Let me ask you first, what was the scene when Li Dashuai broke Gule Village at the beginning? ”
Since Wang Fulin asked Aha to come over, it has been more than 20 days, but he has never asked this, and he didn't ask until today when he completely subdued people, naturally in order to get more accurate information. When he heard all kinds of details from Aha, he finally determined Zhang Xueyan's words, that is, when Li Chengliang broke through Gule Village, Wang Gao had already led some people to break through, and in addition to Lai Lihong and some Jurchens who died in battle, there were indeed many old and weak women and children in the beheading work, so Zhang Xueyan asked him to appease the Jurchen people, and the number was six or seven hundred, which was really cheating.
After pondering for a long time, he asked again: "As far as you know, how many Aha with Han blood like you are enslaved over there?" Has no one ever tried to escape? ”
"Yes......" Ahha's face suddenly turned extremely pale, and he whispered for a long time, "but Marfa...... No, Wang Gao said in front of people before, but whoever escapes Aha is either caught by the Fushun generals, sent back, and then beaten to death, or is detained and hidden as a tenant, and then cut off his head for beheading when there is a war. Unless you are too lucky, escaping to the territory of Liaodong is a dead word. So if you can't live anymore, no Aha dares to run away! ”
