277 A traitor who insists on not surrendering
"The old lady is angry, the old lady is angry, Brother Heng Jiu is just a ghost for a while, so he did such a wrong thing, now that he has known repentance, then in the future, as long as he changes his evil and returns to the right, the old lady can't be too angry because of this matter, if there is really an accident because of this matter, then not only will Brother Heng Jiu regret it for life, but it will also be a great loss for my Ming court!" Seeing the stalemate in the hall, Shi Kefa knew to open his mouth to persuade him.
To tell the truth, in the depths of Shi Kefa's heart, he was very disdainful and even contemptuous of Hong Chengchou, for the scholar class at that time, loyalty and patriotism were the highest moral standards, and since Hong Chengchou had surrendered to treason, he was already a complete shameless villain, a person without morality and integrity.
But the idea in his heart is an idea, but Shi Kefa knows that at this time, it is not the time to investigate Hong Chengchou's mistakes, after all, the top priority now is first of all how to expand the strength of the Hongguang Imperial Court in Shaanxi as soon as possible, if there is no Ming Imperial Court, what is the point of caring about those false names, and it is precisely for this reason that after getting Shi Lei's plan from Taiyuan City, Shi Kefa nodded and agreed without hesitation, and, after the old woman Fu came to Xi'an City, he personally went out of the city to greet him, and took her to his mansion and settled her.
Sure enough, these days of contact have made Fu's sense of Shi Kefa still very good, and although she hates her son who defected to the enemy and treasoned in her heart, but after all, this is the flesh and blood he conceived and born in October, how could she really want him to die? Therefore, under Shi Kefa's persuasion, Fu's face finally eased.
"Brother Hengjiu, please get up quickly. These days, due to special reasons, the younger brother has not met you until today, and I ask Brother Heng Jiu to understand. After appeasing the old woman Hong, Shi Kefa helped Hong Chengchou who was kneeling there again.
"Thank you to the virtuous brother of Xian, my brother is now a sinner, and I should not be treated like this by my virtuous brother. If the virtuous brother has something to say, just say it, whether it is killing or chopping, and he will admit it for his brother. Looking at Shi Kefa standing in front of him, Hong Chengchou said with shame on his face.
Seeing Hong Chengchou's appearance, Shi Kefa felt that there was no point in continuing to speak, his original meaning was to recruit Hong Chengchou, not to mention that there was still Mrs. Hong here, and if he spoke now, it would be the best time.
"Since Brother Heng Jiu spoke like this. Then the younger brother will no longer go around in circles, in fact, the current situation Heng Jiu Brother should also understand that although the Manchu court is now like a rainbow and looks powerful, but it is just a fire cooking oil, and it will not last long at all, thinking about how powerful the Great Yuan Dynasty was back then. But in the end, it's just a few decades of the world. What's even more terrifying, now that my Ming Shengtian is on the throne, and there is Lord Shi below, during this time, he has repeatedly beaten the Manchu Tartar captives and fled in embarrassment, let's just say that this has just ended the battle of Henan. Your army pressed the border, forcing our army to retreat again and again, but in the end, more than 100,000 troops were not defeated. In the end, even you, the minister of the Imperial Mission, fell into our hands, so I believe that Brother Heng Jiu should understand very well how to go next. Shi Kefa said.
"Hahaha, Brother Xian, your words are understood by your brother, you want to surrender to Brother Yu, but to be honest, Hong was originally a criminal minister of the imperial court, logically speaking, it should have died as early as the defeat of the Battle of Songjin that year, and he should have died to thank God, but unfortunately, Brother Wei was timid at the time, so he surrendered to the enemy, so as to survive in the world, Brother also knows that for so many years, countless people have scolded me as a traitor, a traitor, although every time I hear it for my brother, my heart is extremely painful, but since it has happened, Then there is no regret medicine to take, and I can only go on so hard as a brother.
If there is no rise of Shaanxi, I am afraid that in the face of a mess of sand like the Central Plains, they still have a glimmer of hope, but now with the rise of Shaanxi, they want to dominate the world, which is tantamount to making it more difficult, but even so, for the brother has never given up, not for anything else, because the brother wants to prove to the world, not for the brother is incapable, but God does not bless me.
It stands to reason that today the virtuous brother of Xian came to persuade me to surrender, I should be grateful to Dai De for his homeopathic surrender, but for my brother to tell you, this is impossible, I betrayed the first emperor is already considered a disloyal and unrighteous person, if I betray the regent who treats me well, then I Hong Chengchou will really have no face in this world, when the time comes, not only will my last bit of dignity be lost, even if I die, I will leave a reputation that will be stinky for thousands of years in the history books, so don't say so much about the virtuous brother of Xian, whether it is life or death today, I, Hong Chengchou, will never betray the Qing Dynasty. Hong Chengchou sat on the ground and said with a sad expression.
After listening to Hong Chengchou's words, Shi Kefa's heart was suddenly full of sighs, although he didn't understand Hong Chengchou's mood now, but from Hong Chengchou's words, he heard the contradiction full of pain and struggle, and for a while, he didn't know how to continue.
Although Shi Kefa did not speak, but the old woman Hong on the side had already been angry, Mrs. Hong was also born in a scholarly family, and his father was also a man, not to mention that he was familiar with history books since he was a child, but some basic people still know about it, and it is precisely because of this that he was able to teach the three brothers of Hong Chengchou, of course, Hong Chengchou's character will not be said.
Mrs. Hong originally wanted her son to take refuge in the Manchu Qing Dynasty and killed him herself, but this time after being invited to Shaanxi by the nightingale from her hometown in Fujian, she finally knew that her son was captured by the Ming army, and the Ming court wanted to persuade her son to surrender, after hearing the good news, Mrs. Hong was excited for a few days and nights and could not calm down, originally thought that after her son saw himself come forward, he could return to the Ming court to wash away the shame of the past, but he did not expect, How could his son not feel ashamed and angry when he said such shameless words in front of him?
"You you are such a bastard, if I had known that you would have today's fate, after giving birth to you, it would be better to throw it directly as a dog, it is better than leaving you to cause trouble in the world, before you surrendered to the enemy for your own life and death, betrayed the country to seek glory, and now you finally have the opportunity to re-imburse the court, but you don't know how to cherish it, but you still say so much that you don't betray those Tartars, your saint classics over the years, have you read them all in the dog's belly?"
Mrs. Hong's scolding not only made Hong Chengchou, who had just returned to normal, ashamed again, but even Shi Kefa immediately calmed down and felt remorse for his unfirmness just now.
"Little San, you come in for me." Mrs. Hong can't be a heroine, and after some scolding, she didn't finish it, and shouted at the door again.
Hearing Mrs. Hong's voice, Hong Chengjian at the door hurriedly rushed in, bowed to Mrs. Hong and said, "Mother, I don't know what is the matter with summoning children." ”
As soon as Hong Chengji's words were finished, he heard a 'bang', and saw Mrs. Hong throw the crutches in her hand in front of him, and then said to him, "Since this son of evil is so shameless, then letting him live is also a shame for the ancestors of my Hong family, in this case, I might as well beat him to death directly, and it can be regarded as cleaning the door for my Hong family. ”
Hearing Mrs. Hong's words, everyone present was a little stunned, and everyone didn't expect that this old woman would be so strong.
"Mother, please be merciful to your subordinates, eldest brother, he was also confused for a while, so he sat down for such a wrong thing, you let the child persuade him well, he will definitely be able to persuade him to change his mind." Although Hong Chengjian said how to hate Hong Chengchou, after all, this is the eldest brother of his mother's compatriots, how can he really bear to watch him die tragically in front of his eyes?
"Big brother, you just obey your mother's orders and surrender to the court, as long as you surrender to the court, then the past can be made up, and my mother and our brothers can also return to their previous appearance, why are you so persistent?" After persuading Mrs. Hong, Hong Chengjian turned his head to Hong Chengchou and persuaded him.
It's a pity that Hong Chengcheng was a little disappointed, although Hong Chengchou was full of shame and remorse, he still shook his head and said forcefully, "Third brother, don't persuade me, you still follow your mother's instructions and beat me to death directly, I will not betray the Qing Dynasty in my life." After saying that, his eyes were closed, and he looked like he was waiting to die.
"Okay, good, good, this is really a good son I have raised for decades, I didn't expect that the old woman was obsessed with being dozens of years old, but she raised such a disloyal and unfilial son, unkind and unrighteous son, so that the reputation of my Hong family was ruined, in this case, now I can only use the life of the old woman to wash away the reputation of my Hong family." After Mrs. Hong heard Hong Chengchou's words, she suddenly trembled with anger and said, and then said such a thing, and after finishing speaking, she suddenly turned around and slammed into the pillar on the side.
"Ah, mother, don't, don't."
"No, old lady, never, never!"
The sudden appearance of a scene made Shi Kefa and Hong Chengjian suddenly frightened, and shouted loudly at the same time, and, turned around and grabbed Mrs. Hong, seeing that the tragedy was about to happen, fortunately, Mrs. Hong herself was already old, her physical strength was weak, and she was a small foot, and she couldn't run fast, so Shi Kefa, who was closest to her, hurried two steps and stopped in front of her, avoiding the tragedy, although there was no tragedy, but such a scene also made everyone nervous.
