Longevity begins with Jinyiwei

The public opinion of the upper class was silenced, and the gentry and literati of the middle class naturally did not dare to speak too much.

This mutiny seemed to have an invisible big hand, forcibly suppressing the public opinion that should have been boiling to the bottom of the valley.

In the study of Duke Qin's mansion, after Li Xiu received Jin Yiwei's report, a dignified expression appeared between his brows.

Obviously, to some extent, this is a kind of demonstration by civil servants.

But it is undeniable that in terms of reason and public opinion, he, Li Xiu, and these martial arts soldiers under his command are not as flattering as this gentry who has lasted for hundreds of years.

As the saying goes, the same is true for iron camps, flowing soldiers, and civil servants. Even if dynasties change and the world divides and unites, these scholars are indispensable.

This is true regardless of the past, the present, or the distant future.

Li Xiu never regarded the entire literati class as his enemy. What he always wanted to do was to rejuvenate this decayed literati class.

It's just that, limited to various things, at least for now, he is powerless in many things.

The Ming Dynasty's hundreds of years of civil and military nobles cannot be easily changed by him.

Either it takes a long time to change people's concept little by little, or it uses iron and blood to forcibly reverse this concept.

However, as far as he is concerned, although he has never regarded the literati as enemies, it is clear that the literati have already regarded him as a grassroots bandit and a thief who steals the country!

It's just that, in the past, with the support of the imperial power, literati were powerless, but now, it is obviously completely different.

All kinds of thoughts flowed, and Li Xiu also slowly put down the Jinyiwei Memorial in his hand.

What civil servants rely on is nothing more than legal principles and righteousness, rules and regulations.

It didn’t take too long for the Manchus to enter the customs in history, from high-ranking scholar-bureaucrats and literati lords, from daring to reject the emperor’s will and scolding the emperor face to face, to slaves who shouted long live and beat and scolded.

At any time, the mouth is fighting with the barrel of a gun, and the winner will only be the barrel of a gun, there will be no suspense!

When the sun and the moon change to a new sky, the principles of law and righteousness will be reshaped, and the rules and systems will be reshaped.

Chapter 353 Smoke rises from the old Li family's ancestral grave!

The whole city was silent, never mentioning the mutiny, but in the palace, Li Banghua and Sun Chuanting, who reported the report, entered the palace nervously, and finally left the Qianqing Palace in embarrassment. Voice.

In the square outside the hall, Li Banghua and Sun Chuanting looked at each other and stood silently.

Helpless, desperate!

All kinds of emotions are intertwined and fully displayed!

"If you want to help the sun and the moon, you can't repay the universe!"

Li Banghua sighed quietly, and then walked away.

Sun Chuanting was also speechless.

As a subject, he naturally has no objection to the queen mother breaking the tacit agreement with Duke Qin and gathering power.

After all, power without checks and balances is terrifying.

With the court system and legal principles, Duke Qin's power was weakened little by little.

He could feel that Qin Gong absolutely knew the disadvantages of Wu Xun's dominance, so he was quite tolerant towards their civil servants, even though he monopolized the power, he did not strike them hard.

He doesn't know what the future holds, but, at least for now, Duke Qin's tolerance is still there, and before his ambitions are revealed, there is absolutely no need to be so urgent.

He only hoped that he could be more stable and slow down, so that he wouldn't be caught in a trap so easily.

After all, even though Wu Xun is now rebellious and disregards the king's law, in the end, Duke Qin has not yet shown any objection.

And why is it so urgent, why is it necessary to press every step of the way, and why is it necessary to tear your skin at the beginning!

If the fish dies, will the net break?

Suddenly, Sun Chuanting couldn't help feeling a little regretful.

It seems that at the beginning, they shouldn't have moved closer to the queen mother so quickly, maybe they should have taken it slowly, without the madness of the queen mother, and with Duke Qin's love for the emperor, as long as they continue, no matter what, they will not suddenly fall into such a situation .

The queen mother is not a wise person, even...

Those rebellious words flashed through Sun Chuanting's mind, and he couldn't help but look back at Qianqing Palace.

The Qianqing Palace is still majestic, shining brightly under the setting sun, and its majesty is at its best.

But at this moment, Sun Chuanting seemed to see that in the near future, blood and fire would completely cover this imperial palace, this capital city, and even the entire world.

If it continues like this, these hundreds of years of brilliant Ming Dynasty may all be ruined in the hands of this mad Queen Mother.

"Hey!"

In the end, Sun Chuanting looked up to the sky and sighed, his eyes full of sadness.

God, why did he tease Daming so much!

Rising and recovering, going through catastrophes, and finally saw the dawn of Ming Dynasty's revival, but suddenly fell like this!

In the past, Duke Qin held up the sky with one hand and turned the tide.

But now, who can help the building to collapse and turn the tide?

him?

Or is it the civil servants and gentlemen of the Manchu Dynasty?

Or those disgusting bastards in the south of the Yangtze River?

"That's all... Minister of Ming Dynasty, do your best and obey the destiny..."

With a lonely figure, Sun Chuanting also dragged his heavy steps towards the outside of the palace bit by bit.

As the saying goes, some people are happy, some people are worried.

This old man who stands at the top of the world's elite is concerned about the country and the people, but at this moment, there are ordinary people at the bottom, who are carried into an unspeakable ecstasy and dream by the monstrous wealth that fell from the sky.

In a small mountain village outside the city of Fengxiang Mansion in Shaanxi, the sudden arrival of a large group of people also completely broke the peace of this small mountain village.

"Butler Wang, this is Xiaohe Village. According to the news, Madam's parents should have fled to this village."

Wang Wu stepped out of the carriage, his tiredness could not be concealed on his old face.

After traveling thousands of miles from the capital to Shaanxi, it turned out that the village where the wife's parents lived had already been completely burned down by the rebel army.

After many rounds, I have been traveling in Shaanxi for more than two months, and my old bones are about to fall apart before I found Xiaohe Village.

"Quickly, find someone to ask, where are Madam's parents and family?"

Wang Wu couldn't wait any longer, he was pampered in the Duke's mansion, how could he have suffered such a crime, if it wasn't for the master's important matter, he would never have made this trip himself.

"Go to someone and ask the villagers."

The accompanying general of the Huai'an camp also immediately spoke out, and then a soldier rode out at a gallop, and after a while, the soldier rode his horse back again.

Immediately afterwards, this group of people, led by the villager, went straight to a small thatched hut at the end of the village, while the other villagers in the village knelt down on the ground, not daring to vent their breath.

In a land that has been in chaos for a long time, how to survive as much as possible, the people on this land have already summed up their experience.

When you are unable to resist and escape, that is humility, the humbleness of falling into the dust,

"Li Laosan, what are you running for?"

"It's a great thing, your third sister is going to marry a high official, don't run away!"

"My lord, the ones running away are Li Laosan and his family's youngest!"

The villagers who led the way shouted from afar, and they did not forget to report to Wang Wu.

Obviously, the distance was too far, so Li Laosan obviously didn't hear it. He led his youngest son and ran into the mountains with his head buried.

"Quick, stop it, be careful, don't get hurt!"

Wang Wu also can't laugh or cry, if this makes him run away, who knows where he will hide!

The accompanying Huai'an camp soldiers immediately rode their horses to chase after him, and Li Laosan, as if he had sensed the chasing cavalry, ran even faster!

But obviously, two legs, no doubt, can't run with four legs.

"Master, spare your life, Lord, spare your life!"

In the end, Li Laosan and his youngest son knelt down on the ground, kowtowed to the point of bleeding, and kept begging for mercy.

This kneeling, how could all the soldiers dare to bear it, they quickly got off their horses, several people stepped forward, and immediately helped this Li Laosan and the youngest son of Li Laosan's family up.

"You are Li Laosan?"

Wang Wu was also out of breath from running, and with the support of his entourage, after trotting over, he couldn't wait to ask.

"Back to the adults, the younger one is Li Laosan!"

While speaking, Li Laosan subconsciously felt his legs go limp, and he was about to kneel down again, but this time, he was firmly supported by several soldiers.

"Does your family have a daughter named Li Yue'er?"

Li Laosan was taken aback for a moment, then he was a little puzzled and said, "My lord, are you talking about our third sister?"

"Is it her, is she your daughter?"

Wang Wu took the portrait handed over by a servant at the side, and asked again.

Li Laosan was still a little uncertain at first, but when Wang Wu took out a broken jade pendant, Li Laosan nodded violently.

"Third sister, this is my third sister!"

"it is good!"

After all kinds of twists and turns, he finally found the right owner, and Wang Wu couldn't help heaving a sigh of relief: "Now immediately, bring all your family members and follow me to the capital!"

"what?"

Li Laosan obviously didn't understand what the words meant, and stood there in a daze.

Seeing this, Wang Wu had no choice but to explain: "Big happy event! Your daughter is going to marry Qin Guogong, the current Minister of State Administration and Administration, and now I invite you to go to the capital to enjoy the blessings!"

As soon as these words came out, Li Laosan was completely dumbfounded.

He is no stranger to the name Qin Guogong, or in other words, no one is unfamiliar in this Shaanxi area.

Who doesn't know that the mighty King Zhang and King Li, just like the little chicken, were beheaded by the Duke of Qin.

That is to say, Duke Qin beheaded those two great kings, and Shaanxi, which has been in turmoil for so many years, finally managed to settle down, even though natural disasters continued.

But at least, the family who fled everywhere can finally settle down and have a place to settle down. Life is hard, but it's better than dying!

With his face facing the loess and his back facing the sky, Li Laosan, who had been eating in the fields all his life, never imagined that he would be able to get involved with such a legendary big man!

After reacting, Li Laosan also went limp all over. If he hadn't been helped by the soldiers next to him, he would have collapsed on the ground.

"Don't be dazed, go home quickly, call your family, let's hurry to the capital, your daughter is pregnant with Duke Qin's blood, if we go late, we won't be able to make it to the full moon banquet!"

This sentence almost didn't make Li Laosan so excited that he died on the spot.

"Youngest, come on...come on...help daddy, let's...let's go back, go...go back...call your mother and your brother, let's go to the capital, let's go...to find the third sister! "

Li Laosan waved to his younger son, who seemed to be still in a daze beside him, his voice trembling with excitement.

Only then did the youngest boy come to his senses, and trotted over immediately. In just a few short steps, he even fell and ate shit, and tried to get up, but his hands and feet were a little bit uncontrollable.

Seeing the two of them like this, everyone was reluctant to rush, several soldiers stepped forward and helped one each.

A group of people followed Li Laosan, who was staggering, and headed towards the broken thatched hut at the end of the village.

Still far away, Li Laosan couldn't help shouting excitedly: "Damn my son, smoke is rising from the ancestral grave of our old Li's family, the third younger sister is promising, the third younger sister is promising..."

Chapter 354 Follow the wishes of the Tian family again!

"Sir, have something to eat and have a rest."

The door of the study was pushed open, Li Yue'er walked into the room with a big belly, carrying tea and snacks,

With this scene in his eyes, Li Xiu put down the pen in his hand, stood up and took the tea and snacks in Li Yueer's hand, put them on the table, and instructed again: "All these things can be done by the servants, you can take care of the baby at ease!"

"The doctor said, let the concubine move around more, it is good for the fetus..."

"Well, go to the garden if you have nothing to do. I will leave these things to the servants in the future."

Li Xiu couldn't deny it, and emphasized again.

Li Yue'er responded weakly: "I know."

At this time, Li Xiu seemed to think of something, and suddenly said: "There has been news from Shaanxi that your parents have been found, and your elder brother and two younger brothers have already set off for the capital. How long will you be able to reunite with your parents and brothers!"

As soon as these words came out, Li Yue'er's tender body trembled, and tears soon flickered in her bright eyes: "Master loves me so much, I really can't repay you as a concubine..."

"What do you say to report or not..."
