This side of the beach was already a mess, all the traps had been marked, and then, one after another, the big ships lowered their sails and anchored, and more small boats were lowered, Hao Fenglou and Zheng He and a group of wrestlers went ashore one after another, and everyone unloaded boxes of food and gunpowder, and the fire team gathered together and continued to drive towards Hoi An County.
Hoi An has already been in a mess, many people have already packed up their things and are ready to flee, and some deserters are planning to refuse, but the scene is really harmful, who has any courage? When the firecracker arrived, almost no one resisted, everyone scattered and ran clean, and some of them were the whole family here, returning to the house with their own private soldiers, and asking people to close the door, and they were terrified, and they didn't know whether to resist stubbornly, and the whole house was full of chickens and dogs, and the cries of women and children were endless.
But they were greeted by silence, surprisingly quiet.
That Thanh Hoa Gong Ruan Jian knew that there was nowhere to escape, hundreds of people from the Ruan family were here, where could they flee? He couldn't help but feel desolate in his heart, thinking that he was an old minister of the Chen family, with great military achievements, and the Ruan family had a foothold here for two hundred years, which was an important barrier to the south of the Chen family's Annan, and the family had risen and fallen in the past two hundred years.
He regretted it in his lobby, but he called a few sons, looking at these newborn calves who were not afraid of the tiger and planned to take the private soldiers out of the house to do the last fight, Ruan Jian squinted, and the old tears couldn't help but flow.
Taking a deep breath, he said, "This rebellion." The fault lies in being a father, and it has nothing to do with you, Ruan Xiong. You are the eldest son, and you were made the captain of the Northern Army by the pseudo-king Chen Tianli, are you afraid of death? ”
Ruan Xiong is a strong man, in his thirties, with an unruly appearance, and said: "My son is not afraid of death." ”
"Okay, don't be afraid of death." Ruan Jian said: "You can't live anymore. But if your brothers want to live, the blood of the Ruan family cannot be broken, so ......" he looked at the other sons and said, "You have tied up your father and your brother to go and surrender." Let's just say that my father and your brother were deceived by Chen Tianli, and they were mad, and they dared to fight against the heavenly soldiers, and their sins were unforgivable. Your hearts are toward the Great Enlightenment. As for whether the Ming court can forgive the sins, it can only depend on the luck, but I hope ...... I hope the family's incense can continue, come, you can do it. ”
The other sons were startled, looked at each other, and burst into tears one by one, and said, "Dad." I'd rather go out and fight with Han Gouzi. ”
"Fight? What to fight? Who wants to fight? In today's battle, I know what a mayfly shakes a tree for my father. Fang knows what is called a praying mantis blocking the car, the heavenly kingdom, although the rain and dew have not tasted, but the anger of the thunder is really tasted, today's battle is not a crime of war, only blame this small country for rubbing ears, Yelang is arrogant, he actually does not know the height of the sky, let's go, the matter has come to this, don't say more, take the rope, you don't say it again, it is unfilial piety, the ancestral hall is here, do you want those officers and soldiers to kill, the ancestors' spirit cards are all destroyed? Now that the Father and your brother are thieves, and you are soldiers, what are you waiting for? ”
These sons just knelt on the ground, not daring to come out, and they just cried one by one.
However, the eldest son, Ruan Xiong, drew his knife and said, "Since you don't want to take it, then I will simply kill myself, and you will raise your head to ask for guilt." Ruan Xiong threw the knife with hatred, stomped his feet, and said angrily: "Hate only hated being instigated by Chen Tianli's kid, I knew it was like this, why today?" ”
So they hugged their heads and wept together. On the side of the female dependents of the family, there were also people who came over, crying earth-shatteringly, the private soldiers in the house had long since lost their other thoughts, many people fled directly, and many people were cleaning up.
And at this time, the time has finally come.
Bang bang bang......
There was a quick knock on the door.
The porter didn't dare to open it, and the others escaped.
Bang bang......
The knock on the door continues.
The porter cowered, and finally pulled the latch open.
Subsequently, a group of pro-soldiers rushed in, and someone shouted: "Haiphong Hou has arrived, Zheng Gonggong has arrived." ”
The pro-soldiers immediately stood upside down, like javelins.
Hao Fenglou and Zheng He walked in side by side, taking a leisurely walk.
In the house, many people quietly peeked out from the shadow wall and the corner, one by one frightened, even if they wanted to escape, there was nowhere to escape at this time.
Hao Fenglou put his hands behind his back, laughed with Zheng He in a low voice, followed by two guards, came in in a big way, Hao Fenglou beckoned to the gatehouse, the gatehouse stepped forward tremblingly, Hao Fenglou smiled and said: "I don't know if your master is here?" ”
The porter didn't dare to answer.
Hao Fenglou said with a smile: "Aren't people there? ”
The porter then said, "In, in, in the lobby." ”
Hao Fenglou nodded and said, "I'm tired of going to report, just say that Langshan Hao Fenglou wants to see General Ruan." ”
The porter went in like a smoke.
Hearing the announcement in the lobby, the father and son of the Ruan family looked at each other, and Ruan Xiong couldn't help but say, "Could it be some trickery?" ”
Ruan Jian smiled bitterly and said: "It's a blessing or a curse, it's a disaster that can't be avoided, there is nothing to say now, go, hold up your chest, and go with your father to welcome guests." ”
At the sound of an order, several people rushed to the middle gate with Ruan Jianwei, and saw Hao Fenglou standing in the gatehouse, at this time with his hands behind his back, admiring the layout of the building.
Ruan Jian saluted stubbornly and said, "I've seen the Marquis of Haiphong." ”
Hao Fenglou didn't have any scruples, but said with a smile: "Don't be polite, your house is good, there is a bit of the delicacy of the Jiangnan Courtyard, sure enough, Annan and I are a family, you look at the archway, hey, ...... 'learn first and then minister', what?" The Ruan family still has a jinshi? ”
Ruan Jian didn't know what Hao Fenglou was selling, but now he didn't dare to be stubborn, and couldn't help but say: "Yes, the Ruan family has practiced martial arts for generations, but there is an ancestor who loves to read, and he won the second class jinshi in the Dading year, so he has this archway." ”
Hao Fenglou sighed: "I am from Songjiang, there are also a few Jinshi in Songjiang Mansion, and the archway is also the four words of 'learn first and then minister', and the end is to teach people to envy, and the ancestors are virtuous." ”
Ruan Jian had no choice but to say, "Please come in and sit down." ”
This was originally a kind word, but Hao Fenglou actually responded and said, "I'm bothered." After that, he went straight in with Zheng He. The firecracker behind him wanted to follow, but Hao Fenglou stopped and shouted: "Stay here, I'm visiting friends, I don't need you to guard." ”
After that, Hao Fenglou went in with his hands behind his back, without fear.
When Ruan Jian saw it, suspicion flashed in his eyes, and he hurriedly took several sons to catch up.
When he arrived at the lobby, Ruan Jian said, "Master Hou, please take a seat." ”
Hao Fenglou shook his head and said, "No, how can you take the lead." After that, he pulled a chair and sat on the left side, while Zheng He sat on the right side with a smile. Ruan Jian had to sit on the main seat, leaning sideways, obviously feeling that something was wrong, and his sons stood obediently to the side, not daring to come out.
Hao Fenglou couldn't help sighing: "Look, coming in from here, I almost mistakenly thought that I had returned to Songjiang, looking at the calligraphy and paintings on the wall, as well as this table and chair. ”
This means something, only to hear Hao Fenglou say again: "I have never paid homage to General Ruan's high righteousness, and my father has long admired the name, so when I came to Hoi An this time, I once instructed that there was a letter and asked to forward it to the general." ”
He actually took out a letter from his sleeve, and Ruan Jian's eldest son, Ruan Xiong, hurriedly took it and sent it to his father.
Ruan Jian was shocked and didn't dare to ask more, so he hurriedly unfolded the letterhead.
It is indeed a very standardized letter, which claims to be Lang Son Hao Zheng, saying that he is a friend of so-and-so, and has mentioned General Ruan, and has long known that the Ruan family is a family of goodness, and now Hoi An is in rebellion, and his son leads troops to suppress thieves, and General Ruan needs to be taken care of. Most of them are polite, and the characters mentioned are also old acquaintances of Ruan Jian, one of them is still his in-laws, it is the Chen family of Thanh Hoa, this Annan Haoqiang has many marriages, but what Ruan Jian didn't expect is that people really worked hard, and it is reported that his in-laws went to Lang Son, but he never expected that there would be such a relationship.
His eyes were full of suspicion, and he was shocked for a while, didn't this Langshan Marquis know that he had rebelled? No, it was impossible, and even if he didn't know, his son knew it, but why did he take out this letter?
Ruan Jian took a deep breath, carefully accepted the letter, and couldn't help but say, "What does Master Hou mean by this?" ”
Hao Fenglou pursed his lips and smiled, and said: "It's nothing more than to come to pay homage to General Ruan, my father has been admiring him for a long time, and I will visit him today to fulfill his wish." Yes, there is one more thing, now Chen Tianli has been taken by me, he is against my Ming, the crime is monstrous, and then he will be sent to the Beijing Division, and he will have to be cut with a thousand knives, but I know that Chen Tianli is a demon to confuse the public, and he has held many people hostage, and there must be many rumors at that time, saying that most of the wealthy families in the south of Annan are related to him, but these, I don't believe it, General Ruan is in Cao Ying's heart in Han, if the court asks, then I can say that in fact, the general is just obedient to Chen Tianli, but secretly he is circulating, and he also deliberately has private correspondence with Langshan, found out the many deployments of this rebel army, if it weren't for the general's intelligence, how could I be so smooth this time? Okay, I've said that, there are a lot of things to do here, so let's take my leave. ”
When Ruan Jian heard this, he immediately understood.
His mind was buzzing, no matter what, he couldn't understand why people were raising their noble hands, of course he knew what it meant if the Hao family's words meant it, it meant that his crime of stealing the family and exterminating the clan would be written off from now on.
Ruan Jian couldn't help but stand up, not knowing what to do for a while.
However, that Ruan Xiong fell to the ground, kowtowed to Hao Fenglou, and said with tears in his eyes: "The grace of the Hou Ye's life, the Ruan family has nothing to repay, and from now on I am willing to be loyal to the Ming Dynasty, from generation to generation, if the descendants are not filial and cannot abide by the ancestral teachings, then ten thousand arrows will pierce the heart, and there will be no place to die."
