The left flank of the Ming army in Zhejiang advanced along the coast, and the resistance of the Shun army in front of it was once again overwhelmed, and Ningbo Mansion was not far ahead.

Although the Qing Council did not say it explicitly, it did not want to pardon the elite of the camp, "There are not many prisoners captured in the previous war, only a very small number can be regarded as immortal officers and soldiers, and there are thousands of Shun soldiers captured in this recent battle, of which more than 300 people have fought with Xu Ping in Henan, Jin Qiude reminded Huang Naiming: "All the immortal army will not be pardoned, these people who have followed Xu Ping from Henan are his sworn friends, without these henchmen, why should he dominate the world?" If it is a woman's kindness today, the son will definitely regret it in the future. ”

"Yes, I don't know how many of our soldiers' lives will be exchanged for it," the Qing Council and the newspapers in the south have already promoted Xu Ping's immortal army as a group of thieves who do all kinds of evil, claiming that every one of them is a murderous, cruel and cold-blooded villain, and the soldiers of the southern army are also very convinced of this. Huang Naiming has always turned one eye open and closed one eye to the previous prisoner, and he also does not plan to interfere in today's affairs, but just reminds Jin Qiude: "Don't have a written order to stay." ”

"This is natural."

As estimated before the dispatch of the army, it is presumable that the new recruits who later joined the Shun army were even more demoralized to the Changsheng officers and soldiers, and most of these displaced people who joined the army in Henan were alone, and their relatives either died under the tyranny of the Ming Dynasty or were not heard from; On the other hand, most of the other Shun soldiers have relatives in their hometowns, and some of those Shun soldiers from Jiangnan are even children of big families, and if they are killed, it will probably have a very bad impact.

Especially the soldiers from Zhejiang, the Ming army did not detain them as prisoners of war, Huang Naiming has ordered to verify the place of origin, all the prisoners of war of the Shun army whose hometown has been recovered by the Ming army will be given severance pay to let them go home, and the rest will advance with the baggage troops, and the prisoners here will be returned every time they conquer a place, which has won a pretty good reputation for the Ming army, which is also one of the requirements of the Zhejiang Qing House in exile.

The identification of prisoners of war was carried out in an orderly manner, and batch after batch of officers and soldiers of Zhejiang origin Shun were brought to the gate of the barracks, where a long column of Ming army officers sat down, and the Shun army prisoners pressed their handprints on the documents with their names written on them, and then took a wallet handed over, and then left the Ming army camp happily.

Prisoners of war from other provinces would continue to be held, and the Ming army had already established several prisoner of war camps in southern Zhejiang to hold them, and according to the plan, Zhoushan would be transformed into a large prisoner of war camp after the pacification of Ningbo Prefecture, where the sea would be on all sides, and only one naval division could effectively control the prisoners.

The Shun army with Shaanxi and Henan accents was the focus of the Ming army, and the officers and soldiers of the Shun army who were determined to have joined the army before the flooding of Kaifeng were divided into small teams, taken to the mountains and forests unobtrusively, shot and then buried on the spot. Kim had already ordered that the execution of the Immortal Army would be called: a spontaneous act of revenge among officers and soldiers out of disgust with the bandits who did all kinds of evil.

"Don't worry, Childe, as long as you treat the generals politely, it's enough." Jin Qiude once comforted Huang Naiming and said: "Cao Cao treated the generals well in Guandu, and everyone praised him for his kindness, who will remember that he pitted the Yuan family's troops?" ”

In Huang Naiming's camp,

"Our army has played all the way, Zhejiang has been basically recovered, and thieves from all walks of life are rushing to escape to Nanjing first," the staff officers excitedly pointed out that the military operation was smoother than planned, and the offensive against Nanjing would soon be launched: "Young marshal, maybe the naval division can be transferred into the Yangtze River, in case the thieves choose to flee without a fight and retreat to Jiangbei, they can interfere." ”

"I think it's too much," Huang Naiming said, believing that the role of the sailors in the Yangtze River was limited before the bases along the Yangtze River were obtained, and he did not think that the Shun army would be willing to give up Nanjing: "We will eliminate a large number of thieves in the south of the Yangtze River." "——Eliminate more Shun troops, especially the Immortal Army, so that Xu Ping will pay and it will be difficult for a woman to cook without rice.

……

After everyone dispersed, a visitor came to Huang Naiming's camp, the guards did not report, the visitor stood in front of the door of the tent, stared at Huang Naiming for a while, from this angle, Huang Naiming's silhouette aroused a lot of memories of the visitor.

"Big brother." Huang Zijun opened her mouth and shouted, and walked into her brother's camp as she greeted her.

"Little sister," Huang Naiming exclaimed in surprise, raised his head and looked at the person who came: "Who sent you here?" ”

When she first listened to Xu Ping playing the piano, Huang Zijun always felt that there were some familiar shadows on the other party, and this warm feeling of déjà vu made her feel very happy. But later, it was gradually reversed, and some of the brother's expressions and movements would make Huang Zijun suddenly stunned: "Yang Huaizu, he is about to go to Nanyang, and he wants to come to meet the eldest brother before leaving." ”

When He Feihu returned to China, the Nanyang Reclamation Regiment needed a new governor, and the Nanyang countries also needed new contacts. Yang Huaizu's arm was broken in Shanxi, and now he was unable to fight, so Huangshi planned to hand over this position to him.

"Oh, where is Brother Yang?"

"He's going to find his brother first."

Huang Naiming's face was silent, and he was secretly vigilant in his heart, he knew that his mother didn't want his sister to continue to be widowed, and she was always persuading her sister to remarry, and Yang Huaizu seemed to have this meaning - he had not married since he was disabled, and Huang Naiming didn't think he could find a suitable family. Although the relationship between his father and the Yang family is very deep, Huang Naiming always feels that his sister should not find a disabled person with a broken arm even if she remarries.

"Moreover, the little sister is the fierce rival of the north...... The poisoning plan looks like it has failed...... The little sister has an extraordinary influence on him......" Huang Naiming shook his head violently to expel this thought from his mind, as he got along with Jin Qiude for a long time, Huang Naiming felt that some thoughts would surprise him very much now, at least he would never put his relatives on the political balance before.

"Big brother, what are you doing?" Huang Zijun observed his brother's expression and asked softly.

"It's fine." Huang Naiming agreed casually.

"Brother Yang treats me like a brother to his own sister." Huang Zijun said.

"Oh, yes." Huang Naiming didn't believe it at all, but when his sister said this, he put his mind at ease, and then asked with a smile: "How are my two nephews?" ”

Huang Zijun's face immediately bloomed with dazzling brilliance, and she told her brother about the recent situation of her two children.

The brother and sister laughed for a while, and Huang Naiming stood up: "I also prepared some toys for them." ”

Walking to the box in front of the marching bed, Huang Naiming took out a few delicate wooden short swords and handcuffs, and turned around to Huang Zijun who followed him: "When I go back to Quanzhou, I will take a pony back." ”

"Well," Huang Zijun reached out and took the toy handed over by his brother, but his eyes kept hovering on Huang Naiming's bedside table, holding those things in both hands, and he was obviously absent-minded in his promise.

"Little sister?" Huang Naiming looked at his sister strangely, followed Huang Zijun's gaze, and saw that he always carried it with him, and when he rested, he took off the jade pendant placed at the head of the bed.

"Oh, this?" Huang Naiming smiled and stretched out his hand to take the jade pendant in his hand and handed it to his sister: "Little sister, do you want to see it?" ”

"Hmm." Huang Zijun threw the toy in his hand on the bed, took the piece of jade and looked at it over and over, and after carefully observing it for a while, Huang Zijun held the piece of jade and paced to the lamp, and checked it carefully.

"This jade pendant is really good," Huang Zijun finally spoke: "From ...... I have never seen such a good jade. ”

"My father gave it to me."

"It's Daddy's stuff?" Huang Zijun turned his head and stared at Huang Naiming's eyes, his tone was full of doubts: "Liar!" I've never seen one. ”

Huang Naiming said with a smile: "It seems that Dad still hurts me a little more." ”

Seeing his sister frowning and straightening his face, Huang Naiming restrained his smile, thought for a while and sighed: "Actually, there is a secret here, and my father is also sad, so he is reluctant to mention it." ”

Huang Naiming felt that his father probably felt that he couldn't find his lost child, so he buried this matter deep in his heart and didn't mention it to his family. The younger brother died in Henan, Huang Naiming didn't even have the opportunity to see him one last time, every time it came to the death day of his younger brother, the little sister always seemed heartbroken, Huang Naiming felt that although there was little hope, but if the little sister knew that there was a brother in the world, it would always be a comfort.

“…… That's probably it, my father said that in terms of days, it should be slightly younger than me, and it looks like February and March of the first year of Chongzhen. Huang Naiming saw that his sister's face was tense, without a smile, and sighed: "It's just a vast sea of people, nowhere to be found." ”

"He must look a little like his eldest brother." Huang Zijun suddenly interjected.

"Of course, brother. Oh, although the second brother and I are not very similar, but it is because my second brother and I are more like my mother than my father, and this brother is my aunt's child, so he should be more like me. ”

Huang Zijun looked down at the jade again.

"Originally, I thought that this jade was so precious and rare, maybe I would be able to come across it, as long as I did, I wouldn't miss it, but in the past few years, I have traveled through several provinces, and I still have no clue." Huang Naiming also found an opportunity to inquire with many businessmen who deal in jade, and the big businessmen in Shanxi, Shaanxi, Zhili, and Henan have asked one by one, but no one has any impression of this: "Maybe our brother is doing well, and he doesn't need to sell the jade ......."

Huang Zijun, who had been holding the jade and bowing his head silently, raised his head, and Huang Naiming was surprised to see that his sister's eyes were already full of tears.

"Little sister......" Huang Naiming walked over to comfort his sister: "I'll look for it again, maybe ...... one day"

Huang Zijun suddenly took a step back, slammed the jade pendant high above his head, and threw it to the ground with a scream.

Huang Naiming was stunned by this sudden move, and looked at Huang Zijun in front of him in a daze—her face was flushed and tears gushed out.

"Daddy! Daddy is so sorry for my mother! Huang Zijun hid his face and came out, the sad crying gradually faded away, and Huang Naiming finally recovered from the shock.

"Oops," Huang Naiming jumped over, picked up his jade pendant from the ground, and carefully blew away the dirt stained on it, fortunately there was not the slightest damage, Huang Naiming felt a big stone in his heart and blamed himself: "How could I tell my sister this?" ”

However, Huang Zijun's reaction also made Huang Naiming a little sad: "The eldest husband has three wives and four concubines, even if my father has done a good job, besides, this is all in the past, what's wrong with having an extra brother?" My sister's heart eyes are so small! ”

……

"Father is so sorry for my mother." Huang Zijun's mood seemed to be a little more stable when he came again, but this was the sentence when he met and opened his mouth.

"Yes, yes." Huang Naiming saw that tears were still in his sister's eyes, so he had to echo casually.

"I must not let my mother know about this." Huang Zijun said categorically to her eldest brother: "You must not mention this to my mother. ”

"Little sister, rest assured, rest assured, I will not say a word." Huang Naiming stretched out his hand and made a gesture of pointing to the sky and swearing.

……

After returning to Fujian from Zhejiang, Huang Zijun immediately went to see her mother. Mrs. Huang knew that her daughter was an idle person, and her father was also obedient to her, so when Huang Zijun wanted to go to Zhejiang to visit her brother and relax, Mrs. Huang did not stop her too much.

"Mother, the child wants to marry the eldest brother of the Yang family."

Huang Zijun opened his mouth to speak, which surprised Mrs. Huang, before Huang Zijun himself always said that he was not worthy of the eldest brother of the Yang family, and sometimes persuaded the other party to get married as soon as possible.

Although Mrs. Huang thinks that her daughter is worthy of anyone, there are some things that the Huang family knows in their stomachs and never says it, and Mrs. Huang can't understand this idea when her daughter suddenly pops up today.

Especially Yang Huaizu will soon go to sea to Nanyang, and Mrs. Huang knows that if her daughter follows, it will be difficult to say when she will be able to come back, and she will also take her grandson away.

But no matter how Mrs. Huang asked and persuaded her, Huang Zijun was like an iron heart, insisting on marrying the Yang family, and insisting on taking the child to go to sea with the future governor of Nanyang as soon as possible and leaving home.

Mrs. Huang was helpless, just like asking Huang Shi to persuade her daughter to change her mind, but this time even Huang Shi couldn't ask Huang Zijun for the reason for his decision. After all communication efforts failed, Huangshi said helplessly: "If you really don't regret it." ”

"The child doesn't regret it, the child wants to marry the Yang family's brother." Huang Zijun's tone was extremely firm, without the slightest hesitation.

"Does Huaizu know about this?" Huang Shi asked stupidly.

"Yes, he said he was willing to take care of the children, and the children's children."

Huang Shi waited for a while, but saw that his daughter still didn't have any intention of explaining the reason, and finally nodded and agreed to the marriage: "Let him come to my study to see me tomorrow, and I will talk to him." ”
