Chapter 1594
Some sincere words showed Qian Qianyi's intentions, and then Qian Qianyi said: "Old man heard that King Xia broke down the Tartars, and he couldn't help himself. My friend hurried to the golden flower after drinking heavily for one day."
Zheng Xiang made a sign of listening with respectful attention.
I heard Qian Qianyi say: "The king of Xia is in the north and has not yet touched the south of the Yangtze River. However, the king of Xia will definitely Sweeping Across the World and unify the Divine Province. Flexibility. The people of this generation colluded together to fight against the King of Xia and split the Divine Province. The old man wished he could kill him with his sword, but unfortunately he was old and weak and incapable of doing anything. This kind of villain cannot be pacified by force, nor by text. Anguo, but oppresses commoners, which is cruel and unbearable. If King Xia is blocked by the natural dangers of the Yangtze River, what are the commoners in Jiangnan?" Exactly. King Xia swept the north of the Yangtze River, pacified thieves, smothered bandits, cultivated good crops, encouraged commerce, and made commoners live and work in peace and contentment. Taxes are extremely light, and there is no corvée. This is the master of the sky!"
"Why not?!" Qian Qianyi sighed: "Jiangnan seems to be prosperous, but the land acquisition is serious, and the tyrants and gentry are exploiting layers upon layers, which makes the commoners suffer a lot. If King Xia arrives one day earlier, the commoners will be One day less suffering. The old man and some like-minded friends have decided to welcome the Xia King. As long as the Xia King's army arrives, the old man will respond."
Then said resolutely: "Ran Xin Those who are treacherous are very guarded. In order to prevent leaking news, the old man did not dare to send someone to Jiangbei. Yunzhi's hands are the best. Don't let this matter be too strict and must not be leaked, otherwise killing disaster old man won't care, but if the Xiawang major event is broken and the expectations of Jiangnan commoners are blocked, that's a great sin!"
He cautiously took out a thick letter from his arms, and handed it to Zheng Xiang: "The hearts of people with lofty ideals in Jiangnan are all here. Father, don't let people with lofty ideals be disappointed! "
Zheng Xiang took the letter cautiously, held it in his hand, and nodded it hard: "Mr. Muzhai, rest assured, little old man guarantees that there will be no difference in this matter. The letter will be delivered to Jiangbei, Muzhai as soon as possible. The good news is waiting for you sir."
Qian Qianyi smiled and stood up: "So old man can rest assured. It is inconvenient to stay here for a long time, old man farewell."
Zheng Xiang quickly said: "little old man to send Mr. Muzhai."
Zheng Xiang sent Qian Qianyi to the door and watched Qian Qianyi's ordinary carriage disappear into the darkness. After closing the door, he let out a sigh of relief.
After resting for a while, Zheng Xiang hid the letter in his arms, went to the backyard to get a carrier pigeon from the cage, wrote a note, put it in a bamboo tube, and tied it to the pigeon's leg, and then the carrier pigeon was released. .
Two hours later, at midnight, a silhouette outside the backyard wall quickly turned in. The family went outside Zheng Xiang's bedroom and tapped eleven times lightly.
With a creak, the door opened, Zheng Xiang let people in, and closed the door.
"Lao Xiang is a carrier pigeon late at night, what's the urgency?"
Under the lights, the man showed a young face.
Zheng Xiang said: "Liu, there is indeed a major event here."
He took out the letter and said, "Qian Qianyi came at night, said a lot of nonsense, and handed it over to him. This letter from old man, let old man deliver it to Jiangbei. This man is famous in humanities and has quite a reputation in Jiangnan. The old man dare not neglect it, so he will call you immediately with flying pigeons.”
Liuyi listened to it. , suddenly understood: "It turned out to be Qian Qianyi. This person is indeed quite prestigious, especially in the literary world. The news of the emperor breaking the thief has swept the north and south, and undercurrents are surging all over Jiangnan, Qian Qianyi, this person must also be There are some plans. Just like him, these days, many people have quietly sent letters to Jiangbei, and they are almost the same."
Zheng Xiang said with a smile: "These days the house is crowded, old man naturally I can also see it clearly. The Ming court is dead, and these old ministers can't afford to play a fool and are all looking for a way out."
"Then this letter..." Xiaoliu asked.
Zheng Xiang said: "What should I do? The importance of this letter should not be handled by you or me. Just send the letter to Jiangbei early, and you don't need to think about the rest."
Xiao Liu nodded: "Don't worry, Elder Xiang, this letter will go to Jiangbei before dawn."
"en." Zheng Xiang nodded and handed the letter to Xiao Liu, saying: " Jiangnan must be unstable these days, you have to keep an eye on it, and make no mistake."
Liu put away the letter, turned around and left: "I won't be on a business trip."
...
Qian Qianyi is a smart person, but there are many smart people in this world. Just the methods used have nothing common with each other.
Leaving Zheng's ancestral house, Qian Qianyi sat in the carriage, faintly sighed.
He has a great reputation, and he is also the boss of the Donglin Party. But now he is quite cramped, and even has the fear of his life.
When he was still in the capital, he failed to fight for power and offended people. Now in the hands of others, for fear of retribution. That person is Ruan Dacheng.
Qian Qianyi is famous, but has no power. What about Ruan Dacheng? Now he is the minister of the Ministry of War of Yingtian, and he is the main figure who welcomes the blessing king Zhu Yousong, and his power is monstrous. And these days, Ruan Dacheng has been purging the Donglin party members among the old ministers of Yingtian. This makes Qian Qian benefit like a man on his back.
He had to shoot Ruan Dacheng's flattery and hold Ruan Dacheng's stinky feet, just to survive.
However, the news from the north opened a door for Qian Qianyi. Ruan Dacheng is powerful? When King Xia Ying Yi's army arrives, what will he do? The grasshoppers in the autumn will not be able to roam for a few days!
Wouldn't it be great if he could hug Xia Wang Yingyi's thigh at this time, and when the new dynasty was established, Qian Qianyi would be a popular drinker? ! Maybe you can even get an official!
He didn't dare to send someone to Jiangbei, for fear that Ruan Dacheng would find out and send someone to kill him directly. So I used visiting friends as an excuse to leave Yingtian and quietly came to golden flower.
When visiting Zheng's ancestral home, he settled down in a quiet small courtyard in the golden flower city. Accompanying, also his favorite concubine, Liu Rushi.
Qian Qianyi is very fond of Liu Ruzhi, one is Liu Ruzhi's beauty, and the other is Liu Ruzhi's belly of poetry and books, and the two have a common language. This time, he secretly brought the golden flower, but he brought Liu Rushi without anyone.
Of course, he didn't hide Liu Ruzhi about visiting Zheng's house, but it was another story - Liu Ruzhi knew that he was visiting Zheng's house and asked him why he was going, only that it was the Zheng family. From a thief, it is outrageous.
Liu Ru is a young woman in literature and art, probably very idealistic. Moreover, most of the people I have come into contact with are scholars and students from Jiangnan. Therefore, she did not know what kind of person the so-called traitor, the so-called Xia Wang Ying Yi, was. I just know he's a thief.
Qian Qianyi told her righteously and awe-inspiringly that as a leader in the literary world, he would send a message to the Zheng family, scold the Zheng family for being a thief, persuade him not to make mistakes, and should repent and be saved.
Liu Ru was easily fooled.
