When Li Yan saw Tang, he already knew that his identity as a lifter had been restored, which meant that from this time on, he was one of the scholars again, but his responsibilities were no longer the same.

When the two met, they hugged each other and cried, to say that Tang didn't know anything, it was impossible, Tang also experienced a lot of ups and downs, the previous life was very comfortable, husband and wife loved each other, I didn't expect to suddenly encounter such a big change, after being repaired home, Tang couldn't live a good life, I didn't think that more than half a year had passed, I saw Li Yan again, and Li Yan actually followed the governor of Caoyun to do things, that is, he would soon become a court official, and the changes were too great, So much so that Tang couldn't believe it.

Since the Tang family is the identity of the wife, then the matter of Li Yan's concubine must be approved by the Tang family, otherwise even if Zheng Xunrui says it, it will be difficult, at least it will affect the harmony of the family, Li Yan is a responsible person, and he also thought about this matter carefully, and when he saw the Tang family, he said all the things before and after.

The Tang family agreed to Li Yan's concubine, although it was impossible to be very comfortable in his heart, but the Tang family also made a clear request, after the red lady entered the Li family, she must teach her husband and children, never show her face again, and never have any contact with those things in the past.

Li Yan finally met the red lady.

Zheng Xunrui has already released the Red Lady from prison, and is detained alone in the official post, maybe because he feels that he can't live long, but the Red Lady is very open, and the meals sent every day are eaten in large gulps, and he doesn't want to think so much at all, but many times, the Red Lady will still fall into contemplation.

Li Yan's affairs, the Red Lady knew a little, and when she learned about these things, the Red Lady's face changed greatly, and the sergeant who took care of the Red Lady reported the situation to Zheng Xunrui. Zheng Xunrui thought about it for a while, and decided to let Li Yan handle this matter by himself to see if Li Yan had the ability to convince the red lady.

When Li Yan saw the red lady, she was in the official post.

When you meet. Li Yan is very worried in his heart, the red lady has been walking the rivers and lakes, and she has a very bad opinion of the government and officials, otherwise she would not have rebelled in Xinyang and went to Zheng Xunrui to do things by herself. Speaking of which, it's doing things for the court, I don't know what the red lady will think.

Although it has only been more than half a year, Li Yan's feeling for the Red Lady is extraordinary, especially when Luoyang Mansion City was captured, the Red Lady's unhesitating actions made Li Yan feel the true feelings of life and death.

A woman like the Red Lady, walking the rivers and lakes, although she does not have the gentleness and bearing of those beautiful ladies, her emotional expression is vigorous, and she dares to love and hate. Once identified, there is no turning back.

Sure enough, after the two met, the red lady didn't have a smile on her face, and she didn't even look at Li Yan with her eyes.

Just when Li Yan was about to speak, the red lady spoke.

"Li Gongzi, the slave family is a rebellious slut, it is not worth your visit, when the slave family was captured, he didn't think that he could live. The slave family is not used to the people of the government, the officials let the slave family have no way to live, the slave family and the officials are dead opponents, since Li Gongzi is a person from the government. That is, the opponent of the slave family, if you want to kill or chop, the slave family is waiting for ......"

Li Yan made a big red face, but the performance of the red lady, as he expected, if the red lady really didn't feel anything. Don't even say anything, that's the real trouble.

If you want to persuade the red lady, it is undoubtedly very difficult, after all, the red lady has a deep-rooted understanding of the people in the government, and the red lady does not have much knowledge, from the point of view, it may not be very clear.

Therefore, Li Yan can only take other methods.

Li Yan will not give up the red lady, if he really does this, he will not be able to feel at ease for the rest of his life.

"Red Lady, I came today, I don't want to say anything to you, but I have made up my mind, I must marry you, whether you agree or not, I, Li Yan, swear here today, no matter what kind of situation I encounter, I will not turn my back on the Red Lady, otherwise heaven and earth will not allow it, and I Li Yan will not die well."

The red lady, who was angry, would never have imagined that Li Yan would say such words, and her face was flushed, when she heard that Li Yan's fame was restored, the greater loss in the red lady's heart was the gap between herself and Li Yan, she was just an artist who ran the rivers and lakes, and her social status was the lowest, and the ranking among the three religions and nine streams was the lowest, Li Yan joined the rebel army, and there was no identity gap between the two, and it was convenient to communicate, but Li Yan entered the category of scholars again, I'm afraid I can't look down on her as an artist.

I didn't expect Li Yan to swear like this.

The red lady didn't know what to say for a while.

Li Yan won't stop at this time.

"Red lady, I know that you have suffered a lot, suffered a lot of bullying from the government and officials, and you have a deep hatred for the government and officials in your heart, but you should also know that there are still many Qing officials by word of mouth, such as Bao Zheng Bao Qingtian of the Song Dynasty, if the government and officials are dedicated to the people, so that the people can live a good life, then the people will still rebel."

"Hmph, what you said is good, the world is as black as a crow, and the slave family has seen a lot......"

The red lady's voice was already very small, and she said it with her head down.

Anyway, the red lady is not very old, she used to walk the rivers and lakes to perform arts, although she has seen a lot of injustices, but her knowledge is limited, of course, she has also heard the story of Bao Qingtian, under Li Yan's words, she doesn't know how to refute, coupled with Li Yan's previous oath, her heart is like numbness, and she doesn't know what to say.

"Red lady, you and I are in love, I swear again in front of you today, if I bully the people, then there will be five thunderstorms in the sky, I will definitely be a clean official like Bao Zheng, dedicated to the people, let the people live a rich life......"

When Li Yan said this, the red lady had already lowered her head and stopped talking.

Li Yan took the opportunity to walk opposite the red lady and gently hugged the red lady's shoulder.

The red lady struggled a little, and then stopped moving.

Li Yan spoke in the red lady's ear.

"Red lady, I, Li Yan, will never bear your ...... in this life"

Li Yan only said a few words, and he broke the heart of the red lady, and the red lady sighed lowly.

"Li Gongzi, the slave family is your person, you don't dare to have many extravagant hopes, I just hope that Mrs. will not endanger the slave family......"

In the wing, Zheng Xunrui heard the sergeant report on Li Yan and the red lady, and a smile appeared on his face, and Zheng Jinhong on the side also showed a strange smile on his face.

"Jin Hong, among the scholars, there are still very few people who can be like Li Yan, the vast majority of scholars, they can't say those words, and they can't do that kind of action, Li Yan is not a simple scholar, he has some morality in the rivers and lakes, you have to understand, Li Yan is a member of the scholars, but he is not used to the arrogance and lust of the scholars and doctors, and he is not used to the exploitation of the people by the scholars, so he stood on the opposite side of the scholars and encountered exclusion."

Zheng Jinhong nodded, in his opinion, the young master was the most powerful person in the world.

"In the future, you have to treat Li Yan well, give Li Yan more help, the situation in Huaibei and Nanzhili is still very complicated, the protection fee levied by Hongmen has encountered some undercurrents, although the merchants dare not oppose on the surface, but they will secretly be connected, Huaibei needs businessmen, blindly killing and suppressing is not good, plus the relationship between the businessmen and the Donglin Party, the Fushe and the Ying Society is very close, if we can't suppress this momentum, the merchants will eventually rebound."

"Li Yan is a very good candidate, my consideration, let Li Yan serve as the county magistrate of Shanyin County, first standardize the behavior of scholars in Shanyin County, Li Yan still has a brain to do things, I also believe that he can completely reverse the situation, it is difficult for others to do such a thing, after all, most of the officials, the Donglin Party, Yingshe and the Fushe scholars, the view is biased towards the positive, even Shi Kefa and Ma Shiying and others, will not hate the Donglin Party."

"Li Yan's situation is different, you will understand in the future."

After saying this, Zheng Xunrui stood up.

"We went to Luoyang Mansion City as a guest, time is going on, it's time to leave, is everything ready?"

"Young master, everything is ready, the boat is already waiting at the dock, just waiting for the young master to give the order."

"Okay, everyone board the boat tonight, and it will be smooth to Huai'an, and we will arrive within five days."

Zheng Xunrui and the others left at night, obviously not wanting to disturb the people.

Xiong Wencan, Gao Qiqian and Wu Fu and others, all came to see them off, Wu Fu is the busiest, he has obtained accurate information, all the Liukou have evacuated Henan Mansion and Ruzhou, at least the Fuzhou County Yamen in these two places, the officials must all be in place, and the government always needs money and food to do things, these two days, Wu Fu has been busy with these things, and it is difficult to rest even at night, but when he learned that Zheng Xunrui was about to leave, he still took time to come.

Zheng Jiajun set off at the end of the day and went to the dock to get on the boat.

Zheng Xunrui set off a little late, he once again refused Xiong Wencan and others to stay, in fact, it is no longer meaningful to continue to stay here, the news from Hong Xintao's side has also been fed back, the grain and Hongyi cannons, etc., have all passed Tongguan, which is equivalent to entering the territory of Shaanxi, as for the money and grain that need to be transferred to Huai'an, it has already been transported to the Cao ship.

Zheng Xunrui and Xiong Wencan and others still chatted for a while, don't underestimate this kind of chat, this is actually the process of making friends, at that time, Zheng Xunrui drank the send-off wine prepared by Xiong Wencan and others, left Luoyang Mansion City, and went to the dock, he politely refused Xiong Wencan and others to send to the dock.

When he walked to the dock, Zheng Xunrui unexpectedly saw Li Yan, Tang and the Red Lady waiting for him.

Li Yan's family was by his side, Zheng Xunrui nodded slightly at Li Yan and the others, and went straight to the boat. (To be continued.) )
