Among the brothers, Hu Yihuang specially rushed back from Anhui, Ling Shibai was still supervising the battle in Changzhou, Meng Shengsheng, Zhang Weikun, and Lin Daji were already sitting on the chairs next to them, smiling and saying something. On the high hall sat Li Yunzhong, two elders of the clan.

"Worship Heaven and Earth"

Li Yunzhong and the three brides bowed to the sky outside.

"Two Worship Halls"

Turning around, he bowed down to the two elders again.

"Husband and wife worship each other"

Li Yunzhong walked across from the three beauties and bowed to them.

"Licheng, send it to the cave room."

Li Yunzhong held back a smile and pulled the three brides towards the new house behind, thinking as he walked: How many flies can I fly today, double fly? Three Fly? Hey.............

Things don't go according to people's wishes, Li Yunzhong, who had just entered the new house, had not had time to remove the red hijabs on the girls, and was pulled out of the city by a group of brothers, saying that the fathers and elders in the city asked His Royal Highness the King of Han for a cup of wine.

Li Yunzhong closed his eyes and thought: These brothers are all deliberate. One by one with the squires in the city to drink a few glasses, but see that they are all dressed nondescript, there are Hanfu, Tang costume, Ming costume, the only thing the same is that there are still braids on the head, when the Han army entered the city, did not force the people to do anything, just appointed a few demoted officials, subordinated officials to do the county orders around Nanjing, and sent some Guangxi old brothers to serve in the county on business as usual.

Li Yunzhong was a little drunk, and looked at their braids and sneered: "Your pig's tail should also be cut, it's really ugly." ”

A group of gentry looked at each other, and many of them subconsciously touched the braids on the back of their heads, laughing and laughing. Li Yunzhong patted one of the old men in his sixties and said presumptuously: "I'm kidding you, we big men are free and won't force the people to do what they don't want to do!" You are all people with status in the city of Nanjing, and you don't want Nanjing to be reoccupied by the Qing army, because the military discipline of the Green Battalion and the Eight Banners is not as good as ours. Then there will be another Nanjing Three Massacres, Nanjing Forty Days or something, it will not be good, Ha Lu Ha ......"

"Yes...... We...... I must support King Han. ”

Meng Sheng took the opportunity to say: "Support King Han? You can't just rely on lip service, you have to take some practical actions to be like words. ”

"I am willing to donate 20,000 taels of grain and 10,000 taels of silver." The old man who was afraid of being slapped on the shoulder by Li Yunzhong hurriedly curryed favor with Li Yunzhong.

"I am also willing to donate 5,000 quintals of grain." The man in Ming Dynasty costume next to him also shouted.

"I also donate 10,000 quintals"

"I donate 30,000 taels of silver"

………………

………………

Li Daji recorded it on the side, and when everyone had donated it, he walked up to Li Yunzhong and whispered: "There are a total of 800,000 taels of grain, 1.2 million taels of silver, and 30,000 taels of gold." ”

Li Yunzhong didn't expect to see that their braids were not pleasing to the eye, so he scared them casually, these rich people spit out so many things, the wine woke up half in an instant, and with a roll of his eyes, he gave them a set again: "Thank you for your love and kindness, this king is grateful, I will order someone to write your righteous deeds on the proclamation, so that the entire Han can ...... Learn from all of you, in order to drive out the Tartars and restore China, even if you go bankrupt. After speaking, he took the lead in applauding.

When the gentry saw that the king of Han had gone to the generals to toast, they sat down one by one with a sigh. The old man who was the first to donate grain said to the man in bright clothes: "Outside the forester, I heard that most of your industries are in Suzhou, why do you still donate food and money with us?" ”

The forester looked scared and said: "Brother Zhou, you don't understand, I have a relative who fled from Sichuan, he said that Changmao invaded Sichuan and killed people everywhere, especially those of us who have a little money, it is really miserable, the family property was overpowered, and the house was set on fire, and there were beautiful women who were arrested and dedicated to their king, hey!" In short, the family is ruined! ”

The person next to him interjected: "I heard that Changmao is besieging Chongqing, and I don't know how many people have suffered." ”

Everyone looked at the forester, and someone couldn't help but ask: "Brother Lin, do you think this Han King will also copy our family property like Long Mao?" ”

The forester shook his head and guessed: "I don't think it's possible, it stands to reason that the house will be raided, and it will be copied when I enter the city, and now more than a month has passed, and the King of Han has not issued an order similar to long hair." ”

Zhou Yuanwai said with relief: "So King Han is a person with great ambitions, not only will he not raid our house, but he will also entrap us." ”

A group of people nodded, the solemn atmosphere gradually dissipated, and a gentry grabbed the braid behind him and said: "Publicize the matter of our grain donation, it seems that His Royal Highness the King of Han wants us to cut off the braids and let us break off with the Qing Dynasty." ”

The forester also sighed: "It's a pity that such a good braid, for the sake of the life of the whole family, let's cut it off, fortunately, many people in the city have cut it." ”

Zhou Yuanwai saw that there were no outsiders around, and said: "We can collect the braids, and if the Qing Dynasty regains Nanjing one day, we will glue the braids." ”

The gentry praised together: "Wonderful, wonderful"

Li Yunzhong was dazed and walked to the new house, like a tumbler, and finally touched the door, kicked it open, tripped over the door frame and fell asleep completely, not realizing the three flights he longed for.

At noon, Li Yunzhong was woken up by the sound of "chirping", and he still couldn't get rid of this sound after turning over and over, and opened his eyes helplessly, and his eyes were all red tones, only to wake up that he was married, and when he turned his head, he saw three brides chatting around the table.

Xu Yuexiang has been paying attention to Li Yunzhong since dawn, and when she saw him sit up, she hurriedly said to Su Sanniang and them: "Husband, you're awake!" ”

The third girl stood up and walked to Li Yunzhong's bed, bent down, and served Li Yunzhong to get up, seeing Li Yunzhong pointing to the water on the table, Hong Xuanjiao hurriedly stepped forward and brought the tea she poured and put it to his mouth, Li Yunzhong held Hong Xuanjiao's hand and poured all the tea into his mouth, gasped and said: "What did I do yesterday, why can't I remember?" ”

Su Sanniang said angrily: "You fell down as soon as you entered the door, you couldn't wake up no matter how you screamed, you vomited for a while, and you wanted to drink water for a while, which tossed us all night." ”

Li Yunzhong said with a bitter face: "So, I didn't do anything last night when the cave room was spent with candles and a moment of gold!" It's a big loss. ”

Xu Yuexiang said ignorantly: "What's the big loss, you are not a good one, and you are not missing anything?" ”

Hong Xuanjiao hugged Xu Yuexiang and said, "Your husband didn't play a hooligan on you last night, I feel that I lost a lot, do you want to compensate him." ”

Xu Yuexiang said shyly: "Sister Hong, you are not the same, so do you want to compensate your husband." ”

Li Yunzhong hugged them all to the bed, pounced on them, and said with a smile: "Let my husband and I compensate you well, hey, Sanniang, don't run away, you are all old husbands and wives, what are you shy!" Li Yunzhong took Su Sanniang, who was about to walk out of bed, back and put her in the bed.

Hong Xuanjiao was panting, blushing and said, "Husband, don't make trouble, there are still people waiting outside!" ”
