"Alas, when I went out, I really didn't look at the yellow calendar, and I, Xie Chuanzhong, actually fell into this step."
Standing in the small room, Xie Chuanzhong sighed.
His wife said: "Don't worry, sir, think about the benefits of everything, we are fortunate to come out, if you are in Beiping Mansion, you will not be killed by anyone now, I heard that the Yan army is like a wolf and a tiger, kill when you see a man, rob a woman when you see it, and copy your family and bankrupt when you see a rich man, and now Beiping City has become a hell for people." ” "Nonsense" Xie Laocai glanced at his wife: "If you have long hair and short knowledge, you will follow others and shout, Song Zhong has used this trick, and what is the result is really for himself."
Where did King Yan's soldiers come from, it was the original soldiers of Beiping, but the emperor's soldiers became King Yan's soldiers, and they became robbers, which is the foundation of King Yan, can it be messed up I heard that Ge Cheng, Li Rui, and Lu Zhen, these guys who fornicated with the imperial court, were beheaded on the occasion of King Yan's event, and all the people in the family were cut down.
Look at this posture, maybe the Yan King can really break into a situation" "Sir, speak quietly."
The woman was timid, hurried to the door, and looked out carefully, it was already dark, and occasionally a few people in the yard were in a hurry, and no one stood to listen to other people's gossip, so the woman was relieved, and turned back and said: "I said master, if you want to put it aside, our family is not bad for the little girl to eat, but this is in chaos, why do you still take care of her, this inn is full, the eldest daughter and the second daughter are crowded into a room to sleep, and give her an outsider a single room, serving more like the eldest lady of our Xie family, I said, master, don't you want to beat other people's crooked ideas because you look at other people's daughters and look at them."
"What nonsense are you?"
Xie Laocai glared at his mother-in-law fiercely again, and reprimanded: "If you don't say that you have long hair and short knowledge, you can't take a long-term view, but other people's brothers are officials in the court, I think, if Beiping has been occupied by King Yan, we are afraid that we will not be able to go back, at that time, we must not ask for help from others to have a friend who is an official, where it is not easy to take root."
If King Yan is defeated, we will be able to go back to Beiping with the soldiers and horses of the imperial court, and at that time, there will be a mess everywhere, and I don't know what it will be like to be fought for by you, I want the wife to take back our house, shop, and field workshop, and not rely on people's help to squeeze the eldest daughter and the second daughter into a house What's wrong When our family was poor, the whole family was crowded on a kang head, covered with a quilt, didn't you also come" When Xie Chuanzhong and his mother-in-law were talking in the house, Xia Xun found out where Xu Ming'er lived and quietly touched it.
This inn is really full of people, even the canteen in front and the aisle behind are full of people.
Xia Xun also pretended to be a guest in the hotel, and walked a few steps in front of Ming'er's door to see that no one was paying attention, and in a flash, he entered the room.
Before the door of the room was opened, the little county lord sat cross-legged on the kang with a dim oil lamp in front of him.
That's right, as soon as I pushed the door, I saw her sitting on the kang, this room is too small, only a kang, a small square table, there are teacups and teapots on the table, one door and one window, so I saw her as soon as I entered the door.
As soon as Xia Xun saw the county lord, he immediately rushed over, covered her small mouth, and said in a low voice: "The county lord is not surprised, it's me." ” The little county lord looked at him with a pair of big eyes, pointing to his mouth, Xia Xun hurriedly let go, and the little county lord smiled and said: "I'm not afraid, what are you afraid of, you know why I didn't intervene just to wait for you to come." ” Xia Xun was stunned for a moment, and said strangely: "The county lord has calculated that I will come" Xu Ming'er rolled her eyes playfully, and said angrily: "Nonsense, you have seen me on the road, can you not come to me, what secret mission are you shouldering, why are you pretending to be a craftsman again this time?"
Xia Xun was stunned again, and said strangely: "The county lord doesn't know that I am already a prisoner of the imperial court now."
Xu Ming'er said movingly: "Imperial court criminal, what earth-shattering case have you done?"
Xia Xun only then saved, and said that his case was originally a secret case, and his identity was not disclosed at the beginning, even if the court was publicly wanted, and the war was chaotic, the local government appeased the place, concentrated the people, and dug trenches to repair the city wall, and there was no time to pay attention to him, and at this moment he was in Zhending, far away from Nanjing, and he was not an earth-shattering person, how could it be possible to spread the news here.
Xia Xun smiled bitterly and said, "What other earth-shattering case can I do, I just rescued your three eldest nephews from Nanjing City." ” Xu Ming'er said curiously: "My three nephews" She jumped off the kang suddenly, grabbed Xia Xun's hand and said: "You saved them, I said why did they suddenly come out of the crowd in Beiping, otherwise the eldest brother-in-law wouldn't dare to rebel, it turned out to be you."
Xia Xun stared at her eyes tightly and said: "Little county lord, now is not a game of play, King Yan officially raised the banner of Jingnan Qingjun, and the army of the imperial court rebellion has also been concentrated in Zhending."
I'm a real prisoner now, and I want to know, which side are you on."
Xu Ming'er's big eyes blinked a few times, and asked very seriously: "Why do I have to stand aside and their old Zhu family's uncles and nephews are fighting for family property, and they will fight if they fight, what does it matter to me, I am just worried about my eldest sister, and I want my three nephews who are a few years older than me, in my heart, this matter is wrong with the emperor." ” As she spoke, the little girl's face turned red with anger, like a red apple: "My eldest brother is the prince of the country, and the third brother was born later than him, so he can only be the governor."
Could it be that my eldest brother pondered it himself, considering that if the third brother designed to kill his whole family, he would rob him of the position of the prince of the country, so he didn't care whether the third brother had the heart or not, and whether he wanted to do that or not, he would take the lead in killing the third brother's family You are this unlucky third brother, unlucky fourth uncle, are you wronged, do you hate it, are you willing to willingly hand over your head and compare your heart with your heart?"
Xia Xun smiled: "County Lord Mingjian" Xu Ming'er shook her head, a little inexplicably sad: "I sympathize with the eldest brother-in-law, but I can't help him, I can't even help a little moral help, I don't want the eldest sister to have an accident, but I can't even affect the eldest brother, the third brother, and the fourth brother. ” Xia Xun said: "I understand the county lord's embarrassment, to say that this is a matter of the state, to say that this is a matter of the country, to say that to the small, this is the housework of their uncle and nephew of the Zhu family, no matter where you talk about it, it is not the turn of the county lord's daughter to come forward and get involved."
I am now a prisoner of the imperial court, I was arrested and went north with the army, I plan to get to the front of the two armies, and I will find an opportunity to touch the side of King Yan.
But I didn't expect to meet the county lord halfway, this army is in chaos, the county lord can no longer stay outside, the whereabouts of the county lord, I have already told the governor, now the war in Beiping is together, the governor must be more worried about the safety of the county lord, the county lord, I advise you to go back to the Zhongshan Mansion as soon as possible, it is better to be grounded in the mansion than to lose your surname, you are a little girl alone, in case something happens, I am afraid that Xie Yuan will not be able to take care of you. ” Xu Ming'er nodded, and said very sensibly: "I know, but how do I leave now, Xie Yuanwai plans to stay in Zhending City and not go anywhere, I have a daughter's house, alone, I have to go wherever he goes, and now I have met you, but you have become a prisoner of the imperial court, I can't let you accompany me back to Nanjing, and I will kill your surname, what else do you say I can do?"
Xia Xun nodded and said: "When I left the craftsman's camp just now, I also thought about it for the county lord, the county lord is going back to the Zhongshan Mansion now, I'm afraid I have to use the power of the government, if the county lord tells them his identity, they will definitely send the county lord back to Jinling safely, of course, the emperor may ban your feet, but no matter what, he is the emperor after all, how can he not be too concerned with your little girl, and after a while, it will be good to let your third brother ask for a favor in front of the emperor."
Of course, if there is another better way, then there is no need to go through the local government, the county lord's Ling Zun is the first general of the Ming Dynasty, I don't know how many fierce generals have been commanded, this time the court conquest of King Yan, dispatched 300,000 troops, I don't know which of the generals is the old department of your Xu family If the county lord goes to find them, I believe they will be willing to help the Zhongshan Wangfu and send the county lord back safely. ” "My father's old department" The little county lord returned to the bed and sat down, tilted his head and remembered, Xia Xun stood there and watched intently for a long time, the little girl's eyes suddenly lit up, Xia Xun hurriedly greeted him, and said happily: "I remembered" The little county lord shook his head and said: "My eldest brother took the title at a young age, and he didn't personally lead a few days of soldiers, but my third brother has always been the governor of the capital, I can't remember my father's old department, my third brother's subordinates have become?"
Xia Xun nodded and said: "Okay, okay, of course, you can say one, I have already inquired about the names of the generals who went north with the Marquis of Changxing, and you can say one to see if you can be in the army." ” The little county lord said with a sad face: "I know a lot of my third brother's subordinates, but I only know their people, and I can't remember their names. ” Xia Xun's face was blank, and the little county lord secretly peeked at his face, and snorted: "I'm sorry."
Xia Xun smiled bitterly: "How can the county lord be sorry for me, but in this case, the county lord has to retreat and go to the government for help, anyway, you can't run around like this with Xie Yuanwai, if not, there is really a good one, and I will have a restless conscience for the rest of my life." ” The little county lord's eyes were red, and he said movingly: "You are really a good person, you have crossed the river with mud and are still worried about my safety" At this moment, I only heard someone outside the door: "Shopkeeper, this is the Gu Dudu, this is it." ” Then the hidden door knocked lightly three times, and someone said respectfully: "After the imperial court rebelled against the army, the military governor Gu Cheng and the deputy general Zhang Bao asked to see me, I don't know if the girl can rest in peace."
