Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.
"No matter what those people have done, as long as it is not something that makes the gods angry, General Pingyu's Mansion will open its arms to everyone!"
These are Zhai Zhe's exact words.
Zhai Zhe said that Jin Xiaoding was just a guard standing at the door, but he remembered it clearly. He really wanted to tell Fan Yongdou about this, but if he thought about it carefully, he didn't need to say this sentence, Fan Dongjia should understand this truth.
He was just General Pingyu's personal guard, and the person opposite was General Pingyu's uncle.
He arrived in Taiyuan from the south of the Yangtze River, and all parts of the Central Plains were depressed all the way, and often no people could be seen for dozens of miles. If the Central Plains under the Ming Dynasty was full of thieves, then the north under the Qing court was like a desert. This year, the Qing captives lost Jiangnan, and they had to maintain the war in Sichuan and Huguang, and I heard that they would have to raise taxes again.
Jin Xiaoding silently remembered what he saw along the way, and after returning to Shanxi, he was now the most urgent general to lead the Northern Expedition and recover Shanxi.
In Shanxi, he encountered a heavy snowfall. When the snow stopped, the snow on the streets was knee-high, and he had never seen such a pleasant snow in Gangnam.
The heavy snow closed the road, and the caravan justifiably stayed in Taiyuan.
At the beginning of February, Fan Yongdou ordered someone to pick him up and lead him out of Taiyuan City to Jiexiu County.
The Zhai family and the Fan family are dozens of miles away from each other, and Zhai Tang arrived at the Fan family last night against the cold wind, just to see the envoy sent by his brother.
When Jin Xiaoding saw the general's brother, it was completely different from what he imagined. The general was mighty and majestic, and his brother looked like a shriveled old man, more like his father.
"Master Zhai!" Jin Xiaoding saluted respectfully, which was completely different from treating Fan Yongdou. He didn't know the status of these people in Zhai Zhe's mind, but he was only measured by blood kinship.
Zhai Tang looked at this young man carefully, if it weren't for Fan Yongdou also sitting on the side, he even wondered if this person was impersonating.
How could Zhai Zhe send such a person to Shanxi to pick him up? At the very least, it should be the most elite soldiers to protect along the way.
After looking up and down, he still decided to grasp this life-saving straw and asked, "Are you from Jiangnan?" What did the general say? He would rather abandon his family business than flee to Jiangnan, because he really doesn't want to live such a day and night worrying and fearing.
"The general ordered me to take my lord and his family to Jiangnan!"
"You're the only one?"
Jin Xiaoding pointed to Fan Yongdou who was sitting on the side, "As long as the Fan Dong family is willing to help, the road will be safe." "The Fan family's Da Shengkui is raising grain and grass for the Qing soldiers, and the Fan family's caravan is not afraid of the chaos and is walking on the road to Jiangnan and Huguang.
Zhai Tang looked at Fan Yongdou, he didn't dare to express his position in a hurry. This is a major matter related to the life and death of a family. The so-called knowing people, knowing faces, not knowing hearts.
Fan Yongdou was expressionless and said, "Zhai Dongjia makes up his own mind!" ”
"I am willing to transfer all the properties of the Zhai family to the Fan family!" Zhai Tang can afford to take it and put it down. He thought that when he arrived in Jiangnan, he was also the elder brother of General Pingyu, and he couldn't earn back how much money he earned. If Zhai Zhe had failed to recover Jiangnan, and if Zhai Zhe had not captured Duoduo, the Prince of Yu of the Qing Dynasty, he might not have deviated from the path he had walked for more than ten years.
But now fear overwhelmed a qiē.
"You're leaving!" Fan Yongdou spread his hands and said, "But I can't help you!" ”
What he meant was that he could stand by and watch, but never dare to meddle.
Jin Xiaoding interjected: "The general said that he is from Jin and will return to Shanxi sooner or later, and besides, the righteous brother of General Jiang of Datong is preparing to oppose the Qing Dynasty and surrender to the Ming." A big secret was casually thrown out by him.
"What?" Fan Yongdou stood up.
"Fan Dongjia is a person who knows the times, and he should know that the current Qing prisoners are just an empty shelf, and the Han people everywhere regard the Jurchens as enemies. The general's family affairs are in front of him, and if he doesn't intervene, he is afraid that he will not be able to explain to the general and his wife in the future. ”
Jin Xiaoding's martial arts are not the best among Zhai Zhe's personal soldiers, and his strength is not the greatest, if you talk about eloquence, no one can compare to him.
If he doesn't know Fan Yongdou, he also has a way to transport the Zhai family to Jiangnan, but before leaving, Zhai Zhe explained that this matter must fall on Fan Yongdou's head. Zhai Zhe knew Fan Yongdou, so he knew that he would not be able to refuse.
When the Fan family married Fan Yi to themselves, they must not have imagined the heavy life that followed. If the Jin merchants could throw themselves into the Pinglu generals, he would know the truth of the north, and even cut off a strong reinforcement from the Manchus. The Jin merchants were not as wealthy as the Hui merchants, but they were important to the Manchus, and those people were the eyes and ears of the Manchus in the Ming Dynasty, and they still are.
Of course, there are accidents at every opportunity, so Duoduo is still alive in the prison of Nanjing City.
"Why did you give me this news!" Fan Yongdou's face was clouded.
Jin Xiaoding replied with a smile: "Because the general has never treated the Fan Dong family as an outsider!" The general is a Jin person, and I am also a Jin person, so I will never treat the Jin people badly. He was serious, but the words came out of his mouth as if he were joking.
"Jiang Jian doesn't know whether he is alive or dead?" Fan Yongdou walked to the door and retreated halfway.
Jin Xiaoding straightened his color, there was no panic on his face, and he was not worried that he would go to the informant.
"How do I know if what you say is true or false!" Fan Yongdou found a good reason for himself and went back to his seat and sat down. If he found out the information himself, he might go to the Qing court to report it. But this news was told by Zhai Zhe, and it was different as soon as he was qiē.
First, he had no evidence.
Moreover, if he goes to inform, it is equivalent to Zhai Zhe tearing his face.
He didn't dare.
Businessmen are shrewd and tend not to take risks when the payouts are disproportionate to the gains. Zhai Zhe knows Fan Yongdou, they have been dealing back and forth for ten years, and he has a shrewd way to deal with shrewd people. What's more, he just wanted the Qing court to know that Jiang Jian wanted to oppose the Qing Dynasty.
It was a fruitless meeting.
Three days later, Jin Xiaoding received a reply that Fan Yongdou was willing to send Zhai Tang's family out of Shanxi.
Only the wife and son of the main room were with him, and when Zhai Tang left, the housekeeper and concubine in the family didn't even know where he went.
The caravan returned south, and no one noticed that they had five or six more men on the way.
Jin Xiaoding handed over the caravan to his companions at the border of Henan and returned to Shanxi alone. This time his goal is Datong.
Jiang Ping, the general of Datong, and Lei Yanqian, the general of Datong, received the same group of guests this month. With the help of Jiang Pai, Wang Yizheng spread the news of Shanxi and the grassland to the south of the Yangtze River.
The city of Naturalization is still under the jurisdiction of the Tumuts, but Omub Khan is no longer there. He was detained by the Qing court in Shengjing, and the Tumut tribe was divided into three, under the command of Hanggao, Tuokebo and Gezhiletu, and the Qing court garrisoned 3,000 troops in Guihua City to intimidate the various tribes.
After Zhai Zhe recovered Jiangnan, the eight families of Dongkou were worshiped on the cusp of the storm. Zhai Zhe's hometown is in Shanxi, and Zhai Zhe and Fan Yongdou are in-laws.
Dolgon didn't have any thoughts, but at the moment Nanming was stirring up contradictions between the Manchus and the Han at any cost. The Dongkou Eight Families were the first Han people to take refuge in the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and he knew the inside story of the relationship between the Dongkou Seven Families and Zhai Zhe, and he had not yet made up his mind for a while.
Since the Manchu Qing Dynasty entered the customs, he not only had to face the Han people, but also had to face the intrigue within the Manchus, and gradually became a little powerless.
Huang Taiji's eldest son, Prince Su Haoge, was imprisoned after returning from Sichuan, and there were restless people in Beijing.
