Chapter Ninety-Eight: An Exciting Day

Ma Shiying thought a lot, he knew better than anyone else that the situation was sinister, he could only barely support it before, but now the situation has improved a little, this Wei Guogong actually stabilized the situation in Yangzhou, giving the court a chance to breathe.

Ma Shiying understood the role of Luo Jian and several people, and knew that if there was no Luo Jian, the Yangzhou army might have to disperse, and once the Yangzhou army was dispersed, Nanjing might not be able to be defended.

Based on these considerations, he found the emperor before Luo Jian came to Nanjing and said a lot, asking the emperor to comfort Luo Jian and others in every way, and even when Li Zhan and others wanted to impeach Luo Jian and others, he told the emperor to ignore them.

But Ma Shiying is a practical person, although he also has the desire of Zhongxing Daming, but his own status and interests still have to be put first.

Although the Donglin Party has now been cleaned up in the court, Shi Kefa is now involved with this Weiguo Gong, and it is difficult to ensure that he will not rely on Luo Jian's power to return to the court to regain control of the center in the future, and at that time, he may not end well.

Now there are signs of a feudal town in the Yangzhou army, especially after Huang Degong's department was successfully reorganized by Luo Jian, Ma Shiying is wary of the Yangzhou army, worried that the tail of the Yangzhou army will not be lost.

Now Luo Jian asked to provide a water division for the Yangzhou army, and Ma Shiying was worried that this water division would not return, so he hesitated.

"Duke Weiguo, this imperial court sailor guards his position, I'm afraid it's a little inconvenient to want to transfer a sailor!"

Ma Shiying thought for a moment, and finally his own selfishness prevailed, and he refused to watch the Yangzhou army grow step by step.

"Ma Ge Department, I have made up my mind to exterminate the left department, if the imperial court refuses to send out the water division, then the Yangzhou army can only go westward with all its might, and the garrison of Yangzhou and along the river will make arrangements for Ma Ge as soon as possible."

Luo Jian listened to Ma Shiying's words, knew what he was thinking, and thought that this person's selfishness was really too heavy, so he was really angry and deliberately took him into an army.

"It's... Please don't be impatient, don't tell you, now the imperial court has 30,000 sailors in Zhenjiang, and Huang Fei and Zheng Hongkui each lead 15,000 people, but the two of them can move the imperial court, and Yaocao has no bottom in her heart. ”

Ma Shiying is most worried about this, if the Yangzhou army gives up Yangzhou to the west, they will definitely be able to lay down a piece of the world, but the court in Nanjing is all exposed in front of the Qing soldiers, how can this work?

"Please ask the cabinet to give an order from the military department, and I'll go to Zhenjiang."

Luo Jian was mentally prepared for this, and yesterday he sent someone back to Yangzhou overnight to inform Huang Degong to go to Zhenjiang early tomorrow morning to rendezvous.

"Okay then, I'll notify the military department to issue the order." Ma Shiying had no choice but to agree.

Seeing that the matter had been basically resolved, Luo Jian didn't stay long, and left Ma Shiying and went directly to Qian Qianyi's house.

Last night, Luo Jian lay on the bed and carefully recalled the history of the late Ming Dynasty, remembering that a great hero in the late Ming Dynasty was now in Nanjing, and now he has arrived in Nanjing, how can he let it go?

The reason for visiting Qian Qianyi was not because he was a scholar of the Ministry of Rites, but because he was the priest of the country, and also because he had a famous student named Zheng Sen.

Qian Qianyi didn't expect Luo Jian to visit his house, he was very enthusiastic, and specially took out the glass that Liu Ru bought at a high price to serve tea for Luo Jian.

When Luo Jian saw it, he smiled, asked the guards to bring two boxes, and when he opened them, he saw that there were all kinds of glass products, and Qian Qianyi's eyes lit up.

"Xinghua, your gift is too valuable, too valuable!" Mr. Qian kept talking in his mouth, but he felt very embarrassed in his heart.

"Mr. Mu Zhai, I came to visit the house today, Xinghua has something to ask for, I don't know if Mr. Mu Zhai can give Xinghua this face?"

"Xinghua has something to do, but it doesn't hurt to say it, as long as Qian can do it, he should do his best."

"I want to go to Guozijian to see, I wonder if Mr. Mu Zhai can accompany Xinghua there?"

"Hehe, Xinghua, what big deal should I do, how about we go now? I asked the house to arrange a banquet, how about we have a few drinks when we come back? ”

"Then dare to be kind, Mr. Makisai, how about we go now?" Luo Jian was a little impatient.

When the two of them left the Qian Mansion, Qian Qianyi saw that Luo Jian did not come by car, and said a little embarrassedly: "Xinghua, can you drive your magic car?" This country is on the shore of Xuanwu Lake, but it is a little far away. ”

When Luo Jian heard this, this matter was easy to do, so he took Qian Qianyi back to the Guogong Mansion and drove the warrior car in the direction of Xuanwu Lake in the north.

Guozijian is actually not far away, out of Shichengmen Street, turn left into Danxia Street, and then turn to Baoqin Street to arrive in front of the gate of Guozijian.

Along the way, Qian Qianyi carefully explained the history of Guozijian to Luo Jian.

Nanjing Guozijian was founded in the Hongwu period, after Chengzu moved the capital to Beijing, it was renamed Nanjian, and Beijing's Guozijian was called "Nanjian and Beijian", and the status of the two was the same.

In the Yongle years, Nanjing Guozijian was very prosperous, there were more than 9,000 students at most, and then the situation in the Ming Dynasty was erosive, and Guozijian was not as good as before, and now there are only more than 1,000 students studying in the prison.

When he arrived in front of the big archway, Qian Qianyi leaned out to greet the guards, and asked Luo Jian to drive the car directly into the courtyard of Guozijian.

Stopping the car and walking into the Guozijian compound, the two walked along the stone-paved avenue towards the back, the trees on both sides of the road gave people a sense of tranquility, it was really a good place to study.

On the way, I met many students from Guozijian, and when they saw Qian Qianyi, they all stepped forward to salute, Qian Qianyi shook his hand so that everyone was not polite, and the students were curious to look at Luo Jian, who was dressed differently.

The two walked into a courtyard, where a bunch of students gathered around the wide corridor, and one of them was talking eloquently, unable to hear what was being said.

Qian Qianyi was about to step forward and call someone, but Luo Jian stopped him and approached to listen to the person in the middle.

The man in the middle, who is about thirty years old, is analyzing and explaining the current situation faced by the Southern Ming Dynasty.

When Luo Jian heard this, he immediately became interested, and pulled Qian Qianyi to stand behind a group of students and listen quietly.

"The top priority of the imperial court is to contact the Dashun army and the Daxi army to jointly resist foreign enemies, if so, there is the Yangzhou army in the north to resist the Tartar offensive, and the Dashun army in the west to contain the Manchu Qing Dynasty's westward advance, and the imperial court will make great efforts to govern the country, then the situation is still possible, otherwise with the military strength of the Yangzhou army, I am afraid that it will be difficult to support alone."

"Brother Gui Nian, it's just that the Dashun Army and the Daxi Army are both mortal enemies of the imperial court, and this Dashun Army directly killed the first emperor, this feud is too deep, and if you want to unite with it, I am afraid that there will be great resistance in the imperial court."

As he was talking, a student found Qian Qianyi and Luo Jian standing on the periphery, and hurriedly stepped forward to salute.

The students who were in a circle also stepped forward to surround the two, and Qian Qianyi raised his hand to silence everyone.

"I heard you talk about the Yangzhou Army, now that the old man has introduced you to someone, I'm afraid you have long wanted to see him, right?" Qian Qianyi sold Guanzi.

"Could it be that this is the Duke of Wei Guo and the Governor of Huaiyang?" A student in his early twenties, who seemed to be in good spirits, stepped forward and bowed to Luo Jian.

"Damu has a good eye, this is Luo Jianluo Xinghua, the governor of Huaiyang, who came to visit you today." Qian Qianyi looked at the young man in front of him, with an appreciative look on his face.

"Gu Jiang, the secretary of the Ministry of War, has seen Wei Guogong." The man who had just spoken in the middle also stepped forward to give a salute.

When Luo Jian heard this, he was really overjoyed, but he didn't expect to meet Gu Yanwu here.

In history, Gu Yanwu was recommended by someone to serve as a secretary of the Ministry of War, but before he arrived, the Qing soldiers had already occupied Nanjing, Gu Yanwu returned to his hometown to organize the righteous army to fight against the Qing soldiers, and it was only since then that he changed his name to Gu Yanwu.

Gu Jiang has not even been able to get a reputation at present, but at this time he already has a number of books, and now he is already well-known among scholars, so he was invited by the students of Guozijian.

"Come, Xinghua, let me introduce you, this is Zheng Sen, the son of Zheng Zong Town, Fujian, and he is also a rare handsome!" Qian Qianyi didn't wait for Luo Jian to greet Gu Jiang, and hurriedly introduced the young man in front of him to Luo Jian.

Luo Jian felt that his luck was really good today, and he actually met several historical celebrities at the same time in Guozijian, but I am afraid that Gu Yanwu and Zheng Chenggong in this history will not be there.

The yard is full of tall trees, and it doesn't feel hot in the shade.

Some students carried two chairs out, Luo Jian and Qian Qianyi sat down in the courtyard, surrounded by a large group of students, and many students who heard the news also rushed over here, and after a while, the courtyard was full of people.

Qian Qianyi looked at it, stood up, and stopped everyone's noisy talking, "Everyone, please don't make noise, today Wei Guogong took the time to come to Guozijian, how about asking Wei Guogong to tell you a few words?" ”

Hearing Qian Qianyi's words, the surrounding students all clapped their hands in welcome.

Luo Jian stood up, raised his hand to ask everyone to be quiet, and walked to the edge of the corridor in a few steps.

"Hello everyone, all the students of Guozijian, I am fortunate to be accompanied by the pastor to Guozijian today, and I am very happy to see everyone Luo Jian."

"I am sincerely happy to see that everyone can study and do studies in such a good environment, we are fighting with the Tartars, in order to let the people have a peaceful and peaceful life, and of course, let our students have a quiet desk."

Luo Jianhong's voice was unhurried, and the students were also listening quietly.

"But the Manchu Qing Dynasty captured and destroyed our China, and the intention of enslaving China has been revealed, and the current situation we are facing is still very sinister, just now I listened to Mr. Gu Jiang's analysis, Luo Jian is deeply sympathetic."

When Gu Yanwu heard Luo Jian mention him, he was surprised and a little proud.

"I summarize Mr. Gu's words into eight words, that is, 'the rise and fall of the world, the husband is responsible'......"

Gu Jiang was a little strange, when did he say this "The rise and fall of the world is the responsibility of the husband"? I don't know what Wei Guogong summed up from his own words just now.

He didn't know that Luo Jian didn't want to plagiarize the "copyright" of this sentence, as an outstanding figure in history, Gu Yanwu had already begun to show his potential as a thinker, and Luo Jian didn't want to make Gu Yanwu obscure because of his plagiarism.

"Students, if you are willing to study with peace of mind in this country, Luo Jianzi should fight bloodily in front of you and give everyone a quiet learning environment; If the students who are willing to put pen to paper are willing to fight side by side with Luo Jian and fight against the Tartars, Luo Jian is waiting for him in Yangzhou and warmly welcomes him. That's all I have to say, thank you! ”

Luo Jian's words caused a commotion among the students, Zheng Sen looked at Luo Jian with a kind of fanaticism in his eyes, and Gu Yanwu's eyes looking at Luo Jian were full of complicated looks.

Seeing that the time was almost up, Qian Qianyi stood up and said: "It's not early, if you want to go to Wei Guogong, you can go to the Guogong Mansion to post, everyone disperse." ”

"Hehe, it's not for me personally, it's for our common cause of resisting the Qing Dynasty." Luo Jian smiled and corrected Qian Qianyi's statement.

"Yes, yes, yes, it is the great cause of resisting the Qing Dynasty." Qian Qianyi said with a smile.

"Mr. Mu Zhai, can you invite Zheng Sen and Gu Yanwu to go with you?" Luo Jian approached Qian Qianyi and said quietly.

"Da Mu, come with me." Qian Qianyi said to Zheng Sen, Zheng Sen was his registered disciple, and he greeted him casually.

"Mr. Gu, today, in response to your sentence 'The rise and fall of the world, the husband is responsible', the old man wants to invite you to the house to talk about it, I don't know if Mr. Gu can give the old man this face?" Qian Qianyi said to Gu Yanwu, and there was a kind of arrogance of a leader in the literary world in his words.
