Chapter 545: Li Zicheng

If people are unlucky, they will stuff their teeth when they drink cold water, and Li Zicheng, who is just in his early twenties, will suddenly stop after receiving his father's post post post for less than two months.

Li Zicheng didn't know what was going on, the court wouldn't care about his money, waiting day by day, the rice jar at home was empty, the copper was getting less and less, and he saw that his newly married wife was going to starve with him.

Li Zicheng was helpless, so he could only borrow two taels of silver from Ai Zhao's house in the same village when he was a child, and finally passed the New Year, and suddenly heard that the emperor died at a young age. Li Zicheng was still a little emotional, I heard that Tianqi was the same age as him, and he was a little sad, what if he became an emperor, did he not want to be born, old, sick and die!

Immediately, Li Zicheng became happy, it turned out that according to the rules of the imperial court, every time a new monarch ascended the throne, he would give some rewards, even if there was no silver, there was food and salt or something, which could be regarded as making a fortune for the dead.

Looking forward to it day by day, it was easy for the new monarch to sit firmly on the dragon chair, and the first order was not to give a reward, but to abolish the post station.

Li Zicheng was crazy at that time, he couldn't understand that since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, for more than 200 years, his ancestors have been post pawns for generations, why he was forced to be abolished in his generation.

What the hell is this rule?

He wanted to go to someone and talk to him, but no one in the yamen paid any attention to him, and he only ate a few whips. Li Zicheng wrapped the torn leather jacket left by his father, went to the restaurant, and exchanged the last bit of copper money in his pocket for a large jar of soju.

Drink!

Keep drinking!

He hadn't heard of Du Kang as the only solution to his worries, but he knew that only the stimulation of alcohol could make him feel a little more comfortable. It was only after three shifts that day that he stumbled back home.

The wife who had just been married was surrounded by a torn quilt, sobbing in a low voice, crying like a humanoid. The rough man doesn't know what to pity and cherish, he just hates, Lao Tzu has no job. Without a source of livelihood, the loser's girls are still crying, and they are determined to block Lao Tzu!

Li Zicheng used his hands for the first time, slapped his daughter-in-law hard, and beat her to the point of crying with a broom. In the cry of the daughter-in-law, like a dead dog, she lay on the cold earthen kang and fell asleep.

From that day on, Li Zicheng couldn't find a source of livelihood, occasionally did odd jobs, and the few coppers he earned turned into wine. Drink when you wake up. When you are drunk, you sleep, and when you are bored, you beat your daughter-in-law.

Two months after the day of drunken life and death, someone suddenly came to his house, holding a ledger, and his face was covered with foaming stars.

The name of the person who came was Gai Hu, he was Ai Zhao's guardian, and he usually relied on the power of Ai Ju people to run rampant in the village, and no one dared to oppose him.

I saw Gai Hu coming. Li Zicheng was subconsciously startled, and half of the wine woke up.

"Li Zicheng, life is good, and he has money to drink. Do you want to honor your uncle? ”

"Where, where." Li Zicheng only agreed.

Gai Hu's face sank, and he said with a cruel smile: "The surname is Li, you borrowed two taels of silver from Master Ai a few years ago." Now it's ten taels, and it's time for you to pay it back. ”

"What?"

Li Zicheng was taken aback, ten taels of silver. Even if he is still a post man, he doesn't eat or drink, and he doesn't have ten taels of silver a year, isn't this a pit man!

He quickly saw the clue from Gai Hu's smug sneer, that's right, it's you who is in the pit!

"The surname Li is a matter of course for him to repay his debts. I sue you, don't talk about Lijia Station, even if it is the entire Mizhi County, who can dare to owe money to Master Ai? ”

"I, I don't have any money!"

"Okay, you dare to play tricks if you don't have money." Gai Hu grabbed Li Zicheng's chest with his hand and shook it hard, Li Zicheng's body fell out, and his head hit the stove, and blood flowed out immediately.

Gai Hu didn't give up, rushed over, punched and kicked, and was unceremoniously.

"Let you cross, let you cross!"

There are many swordsmen in Shaanxi, and the people are wild, Li Zicheng learned martial arts when he was a child, and he will also be beaten, he protects his head with his hands, and his body shrinks into a ball, protecting the deadly position of the stall and chest, and the rest of the place is just watching and fighting!

Who knew that this Gaihu refused to give up, so he grabbed a shovel behind the door and was about to split Li Zicheng.

"Stop." Li Zicheng's wife pounced and grabbed Gai Hu's arm.

"Master Hu, he is the husband of the slave family, you always raise your noble hand, show mercy, how many graces are given a few days, if you beat him to death, how can the slave family live!"

As soon as the woman cried, Gai Hu was stunned.

Although Li Zicheng's daughter-in-law is dressed in rags, her face is clean and her figure is slim, and after crying, she really has a bit of a cute taste.

"That's it, for the sake of the little lady, I'll give you a way to live, but I sue you, after ten days, if you don't pay the money, the uncle will come back!"

Li Zicheng also knew the power of Ai Juren, and the money owed to him was purely looking for death. Since then, he has gone out early and returned late, working hard to make money, doing all the dirty work, no matter how much money he earns, working hard, he only earns two or three hundred coppers, not to mention ten taels, not even one tael.

The stomach is empty, the stomach acid is constantly tormented, and the taste makes Li Zicheng want to cry!

He didn't understand how he ended up where he was today, couldn't the imperial court give people a way to live?

After sitting for a long time, he took out dozens of coppers, bought a jar of wine, and carefully put the remaining two hundred or so in his arms. There is a debtor and a debtor, he carries everything, and he dies, but he can't even affect his daughter-in-law, so let's go back to my parents' house.

Give her all the copper, even if it is with her husband and wife, more or less that's what it means.

Li Zicheng drank wine and walked home.

But he never imagined that God seemed to be joking with him, and when he returned home, he found that his longing daughter-in-law was rolling together with another man, and that guy was Gai Hu!

Li Zicheng resolutely grabbed the shovel that Gai Hu was going to use to beat him, and slapped it on Gai Hu's head, the hardwood shovel handle was broken, and Gai Hu's head was flattened a large piece. Still angry, he jerked violently, and Gai Hu's head became a pile of tofu brains.

Daughter-in-law Han Jin'er seemed to be stupid, leaning on the side of the kang, motionless, her lips were bruised, and her whole body was trembling.

"Slut, say, why do you want to betray Lao Tzu, say!"

Li Zixiang was a man-eating tiger, staring at his wife viciously, and there was no doubt that he could kill the woman in front of him with a wave of his hand.

"I, I'm all for you."

Han Jin'er didn't know when she had a burst of courage and shouted: "Li Zicheng, you are a worthless thing, and you have so many debts, can you pay it off?" Gai Hu agreed, as long as I follow him, I will forgive your debts. ”

"What? Li Zicheng is a good man, and he has to rely on his daughter-in-law to sell himself to pay off his debts! What the am I, what am I? ”

Li Zixiang was crazy, turning back and forth on the ground, Han Jin'er relied on his courage and secretly approached the window, wanting to jump out of the window and shout for help.

How do you know that her actions were clearly seen by Li Zicheng.

"What a thief and slut, I want to find someone to avenge your concubine, Lao Tzu will kill you now."

A hungry tiger pounced, pressed the person under him, and reached out two big hands, clasped them around his wife's neck, and kept exerting force. At first, Han Jin'er struggled desperately, her face turned red and purple, her body became weaker and weaker, and finally her eyelids rolled and she lost her life.

Han Jin'er died for a quarter of an hour, and Li Zicheng slowly let go and sat on the edge of the kang with a wooden face.

He killed people, and he killed two in one go, strangely, he had no fear in his heart, on the contrary, he seemed to be relieved.

Losing his generational job, saddled with debts that he couldn't repay, his wife betrayed, and the successive blows fell on Li Zicheng, he just wanted to vent and vent with his life.

These people deserve to die if they harm people, and there are too many animals in the world, so that good people have no way to live.

At this point, there was no way to retreat, Li Zicheng lifted the kang mat and buried the two corpses under the kang surface. found his most trusted nephew Li Guo, and after some discussion, the uncle and nephew left Lijia Station overnight. plans to join the army in other places, as long as he can become a soldier, no one will be held accountable for the past.

The two of them ran to Ganzhou in one go, and sure enough, they were strong and strong, and their martial arts were good, and they could easily become big soldiers.

But a few days after entering the barracks, he learned that the army had also been in arrears for several months. From Mizhi to Ganzhou, he has changed from a post soldier to a serious soldier, but fate is still playing tricks on him.

The emperor of Ganzhou Tiangao is far away, even if the imperial court pays military salaries, it is intercepted layer by layer, and there are few sons in the hands of the big guys.

Gradually, there was a news in the army, saying that there was a drought in the Central Plains, and the price of grain was extremely high, and as a general, the kingdom colluded with the county order to take the grain originally supplied to the army to the Central Plains and sell it, and exchanged it for silver and went into the pockets of two people.

I can't bear it, I don't need to endure it anymore!

Li Zicheng exchanged the only silver in his pocket for wine, and found more than a dozen brothers who were suffering from the same illness. They drank and cried at the same time, the court didn't treat everyone as human beings at all, and the officials were even more ruthless, and the local squires knocked on the bones.

Anyway, the big guys have nothing left, instead of being starved to death, it is better to rise up and fight with them!

Li Zicheng relied on the strength of the wine and rushed out of the tent with the angry soldiers, the others couldn't stand it for a long time, and when they saw someone taking the lead, they all followed, and it didn't take long for hundreds of people to gather.

Li Zicheng's blood was boiling, and he finally realized that this was what he liked to do at this time!

"Kill!"

The soldiers rushed into the tent of the Chinese army, and the generals of the kingdom were divided into corpses by their knives, and then they entered the county office, and the county commander was counting the silver with his wife, and was caught by Li Zicheng, and the angry soldiers hung them on the beams of the house, and then cut the skin from the soles of their feet, and forcibly peeled off the skin.

Blood and killing stimulated everyone, and Li Zicheng led everyone to move out the grain and silver from the county government and distribute it to the big guys. People in despair have already thought about it, and instead of starving to death sooner or later, it is better to fight vigorously.

Li Zicheng's subordinates quickly gathered thousands of men and horses, after hearing the news, Yang Zhaoji, the general soldier of Ganzhou, took thousands of men and horses to strangle, Li Zicheng knew that he was invincible, and led his men to Hanzhong to kill, and began the journey of digging the corner of the Ming Dynasty.

Chongzhen, who was far away in Beijing, was still intoxicated by the praise of the wise and wise Son of Heaven, and he didn't know how much of a mistake he had made...... (To be continued......)
