This is an insult to the Qian family, at least in Liu Ruyi's opinion.
She is the concubine of the Qian family, but she was a fireworks woman, and the Pingyu General's Mansion asked her to personally lead people, which will inevitably cause a burst of gossip.
But people have to see clearly that the former leader of the Donglin Party is now nothing. She can go or not, the Qian family is there, does that have anything to do with her? Of course.
Liu Ru still wore a loose Confucian robe, covering her seductive figure tightly.
She came to the governor's yamen first, and when she saw Chen Zilong again, she couldn't find the kindness she once had. Jiangnan is still the same Jiangnan, and people have changed. A year ago, Ma Shiying was in power, and now he is the manager of the Pinglu General's Mansion, and the Donglin Party has never really controlled this land.
A few days ago, the discussion and turmoil caused by the opening of the Pingyu General's Mansion to take the examination for scholars in Jiangnan caused the scholars in Jiangnan to begin to divide. Although it ended with a happy ending for everyone to open a branch of the imperial court, but
Some people began to realize that Zhai Zhe, the general of Datong Wang Pingyu, was a beast of prey that was not controlled by the imperial court.
This is both a good thing and a bad thing.
Zhai Zhe needs someone who can really do things for the Pingyu General's Mansion, if the Tao is different and destined to go to the opposite side, then don't go together from the beginning.
"Hedong-kun!" Chen Zilong was very happy, he thought that this matter was finally resolved, and he also had an explanation for the Qian family. Even if you don't count Liu Ru's relationship, he and Qian Qianyi are also friends.
"Brother Wozi!" Liu Ru was very cold. She has her own reasons to hate a person, just like there are many scholars in the Jiangnan Fu Society who regard the several societies in Songjiang as traitors to the imperial court, maybe Chen Zilong, Xu Fuyuan, Xia Yunyi and others get what those people want but can't get.
Chen Zilong saw that she was not in high spirits, so he didn't think much about it, and said, "You rest first, and I will contact the sect director and go to get someone tomorrow." ”
The labor camp was located in the Yuhang territory north of Hangzhou, where men were carrying various supplies while women were gathered to spin and weave cloth.
The workshop where the work belongs to the business alliance, and Zong Mao and Liu Quan have been old friends for many years.
Chen Zilong personally accompanied Liu Ru to the outside of the labor camp, and the guards blocked the way. After a while, Zong Mao personally walked out of it and greeted Chen Zilong.
It was the first time Liu Ru had seen Zong Mao, the long-known head of the Pingyu General's Mansion standing there, his whole body seemed to be exuding a dazzling light, making it difficult for people to break open their eyes.
It was a kind of pride that was disdained to hide, and it was also a merciless crushing of the mediocre and ordinary people around it.
"No wonder Chen Zilong is reluctant to deal with this person." Liu Ru stood there, knowing that Zong Mao had never looked at him from beginning to end, "How can such a person be in charge of the Pingyu General's Mansion?" ”
At least, the officialdom of the Ming Dynasty can't tolerate such people, but the Pingyu General's Mansion can't tolerate the officials of the Ming officialdom who can get by, and eighty percent of the reasons are attributed to the chief manager in front of him. More than ten years ago, Zong Mao was alone in Beijing and was able to figure out Geng Guang's greedy silver, and who could make a living under his hands.
Zong Mao's demeanor and tone of speech showed his ability everywhere, "Lord Chen, please wait, someone will bring it immediately!" ”
Chen Zilong nodded in return.
After a while, the wooden door of the labor camp opened, and more than 30 men, women, and children helped each other out, and soldiers carried whips behind them.
The women were better, the men were all scarred, and the overseers couldn't recognize their family members, all he knew was that if things weren't done on time, he would be in big trouble.
Zong Mao let go of the middle of the road, and said to Liu: "Recognize people one by one, they are taken away by the Qian family, don't admit the mistake." ”
Liu Ru couldn't dodge, so he had to stand up and identify them one by one.
The Qian family walked out of the wolf-like soldier with their heads down, and a young man hung his head and shrank back until he finally walked in front of Liu Ruyi.
"This is the eldest son of the Qian family." Liu Ru couldn't wait to end this farce immediately, she and the Qian family were like being stripped naked and exposed in front of these people. If, before coming, she was just a little uncomfortable in her heart, now she feels that it is a humiliation.
"Prostitute!" The young man suddenly stopped in front of Liu Rushi and scolded viciously.
Liu Ru was stunned, her face turned red rapidly, and her delicate body shook.
"Prostitute!" Qian Qianyi's son Qian Sunai scolded the second sentence again, this time the voice was very loud, and Zong Mao and Chen Zilong heard it clearly.
Liu Ru's lips moved, but in the end she didn't say anything. She knew why Qian Sunai scolded her, but she couldn't argue with herself.
In the days when Qian Qianyi came to Beijing, because of the current situation of national ruin and family turmoil, she had the idea of indulgence and uninhibitedness, and looked for **** outside. And in those chaotic days when the Ming army recovered Jiangnan, Qian Sunai killed her ****.
"I'm a ****, there's nothing wrong with scolding me as a prostitute!" Liu Ru just wanted to get out of here as much as she could.
Zong Mao looked at the two people who were at a stalemate, and suddenly turned his mouth towards Nunu in the back.
The two soldiers rushed up, grabbed Qian Sunai's shoulders respectively, and one of them slapped Qian Sunai's mouth fiercely. Only two or three strokes left Qian Sunai's mouth full of broken teeth.
A few people nearby exclaimed, Liu Ru covered his mouth, and saw Qian Sunai rolling his eyes, and the corners of his mouth were full of blood.
An old woman pounced on her with a heart-rending cry.
Chen Zilong was shocked and stopped him loudly: "Sect Director, don't!" ”
Zong Mao raised his hand and ordered the soldier to stop, and asked, "Is he a member of the Qian family?" ”
Chen Zilong hurriedly explained, "Yes, that's right, I know him." ”
"I thought it was a fake." Zong Mao said it very easily. Qian Sunai would have collapsed to the ground and couldn't get up.
Liu Ru wanted to step forward to help, but she didn't dare to approach, she had always been surrounded by literati who liked wind and snow, where had she ever seen such a rough soldier.
It was all the turmoil caused by that scolding sentence, Chen Zilong was afraid of chaos, so he hurriedly said goodbye to Zong Mao, and left the labor camp with Liu Ru and the Qian family.
Zong Mao watched these people leave, and a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth. His slaps were shown to Chen Zilong, and the scene in Jiangnan just started.
After Zong Mao initially inspected the land in Jiangnan, he believed that it would be the only way to implement the integration of officials and gentry to pay grain, otherwise the rich Jiangnan would not be able to raise an army of 200,000. You can't do this if you are a good person.
If you are only a good person, you will not be able to manage your finances for the Pingyu General's Mansion. Every tael of silver confiscated was stained with the blood and tears of the family.
Winter is coming.
In the early morning, you can see the thin ice surface of the river in the south of the river.
The Qing court withdrew more than half of its soldiers and horses from Yangzhou, and the city of Nanjing became lively again. Liu Ru returned to Nanjing, and more and more people she once knew came here, some to participate in scientific expeditions, and some to seek official positions.
She hated the Qing captives, but she didn't have a good impression of Zhai Zhe, the general of the Pingyu who recovered Jiangnan, especially after the scene a few days ago.
There are crowds of scholars here, and someone has found her, and her prestige is a glue.
Following the opening of the branch and the selection of scholars, the rumor that the imperial court should collect the land endowments from various places next year has spread among the government and the opposition.
The first to put forward this statement was Zhang Kentang, the secretary of the ministry, but Ma Shiying, the secretary of the household department, did not dare to steal the limelight this time like the previous time. Zhu Dadian stood up in person again, and he liked to go into battle shirtless and did not change. With the help of the imperial court's scientific examination, scholars from all over the country gathered in Nanjing, all kinds of opinions were boiling, and the cabinet scholars took the lead in crying poverty.
Some people openly impeached the Pingyu general Zhai Zhe for privately embezzling food and salaries in various places, and he was quickly suppressed.
Zhai Zhe was in Hangzhou, and only then did he send away the messenger of the Fan family, and he was vaguely uneasy about the movement in Nanjing City, he didn't expect the battle to come so quickly.
Behind this qiē is the shadow of the emperor.
No wonder Zhu Yujian chose Zhu Dadian as this cabinet assistant, he has fought side by side with him, but now he has become an opponent. Zhu Dadian acted without scruples, and it would be a big trouble to sit down in the position of cabinet assistant again.
This is a gun, and both he and Tang Wang want to make this gun, but Zhu Dadian is on the side of the court in the end.
He Tengjiao's soldiers besieged Wuchang, blocked Yinxi and attacked Jingzhou for several days, and the Ming army's war in Huguang progressed very smoothly, which may be Zhu Yujian's confidence to dare to make some more moves.
If Jingxiang is recovered again, the Southern Ming and the Qing court will be in a stalemate, and both sides will be unstable internally, maybe this war will be temporarily suspended, but that is not Zhai Zhe's wish.
The scientific expedition was held as scheduled, and Zhai Zhe's eyes were always fixed on Huguang, and the scouts who sneaked to Jiangbei sent the movements of the Qing army to Jiangnan.
Perhaps he was the only one who paid close attention to the war in Huguang, and he fought very hard under Jingzhou City. This battle is not only related to Huguang, but also involves his follow-up strategy.
Liu Suifeng often accompanied him around the West Lake, they had known each other for ten years, and they often played against each other, and each other wanted to guess what each other thought.
"Maybe I should send troops to support Huguang!" Zhai Zhe seemed to have a hard time making a decision.
If you really want to send troops to help, who can stop you? Liu Suifeng didn't dare to say this.
The defeat of the Huguang battle situation was more in line with the requirements of the Pinglu General's Mansion, and He Tengjiao was the greatest expectation of Zhu Yujian, the king of Tang, and that was the candidate he wanted to use against Zhai Zhe. If the Ming army won in Huguang, it would definitely be bad news for General Pinglu, and it might not be a good thing for the Ming Dynasty.
Blessings and misfortunes lurk, and misfortunes and blessings rely on. Sometimes a win brings more problems.
He offered a strategy: "The prince should ask the court for his life, and ask for his life with great fanfare!" ”
"Huguang wins or loses in two counts!" Zhai Zhe is ambivalent.
Liu Suifeng continued to say his words: "The imperial court will inevitably refute the prince's request!" Then ......"
Then, if Huguang failed, Emperor Longwu and Zhu Dadian would surely lose their prestige, and no one would dare to question the orders of the Pinglu General's Mansion. The Ming army won in Huguang, and the Pingyu General's Mansion would not lose anything. But how could the Jiangnan Qing court watch Huguang fall?
Liu Suifeng continued to ask for his life: "Jin Shenghuan is still at both ends of Jiangxi rats in Jiangxi!" The court is procrastinating, and I am willing to persuade this person to surrender for the prince. ”
Zhai Zhe shook his head and said, "Now is not the time to recruit Jin Shenghuan, it is still useful for me to keep that person." ”
