Ming Zuo

Chapter 25
At the end of the Ming Dynasty, a member of the Donglin Party, surnamed Zhou, from Linqing, was killed by the Eunuch Party and died in prison.

As soon as several conditions came out, Zuo Menggeng immediately knew Zhouyou's identity.

The son of the former Taipu Shaoqing Zhou Chaorui, one of the famous six gentlemen.

Zuo Menggeng still has an impression of Zhou Chaorui in his memory.

I remember that a large number of factory guards rushed into the Zhou family and took all the Zhou family away.The Zhou family was sealed, and now there is a seal on the door.

Then came news that Zhou Chaorui's wife and daughter did not want to be humiliated and chose to commit suicide.

This matter is in the uproar of Linqing, and everyone knows it.

But he didn't think that Zhou Chaorui and his descendants were still alive, but Zuo Liangyu saved them.

Thinking about it carefully, the year when Zhou Chaorui's house was raided happened to be when Zuo Liangyu came back to save his relatives.

And soon after he returned to Liaodong, he was promoted to the chief.

In the past, Zuo Menggeng was puzzled by this point, but now it seems that the joints are on the wandering body.

Another person's voice confirmed Zuo Menggeng's guess.

"Sigui, be safe and don't be impatient. This eunuch will have a day when he will fall under the law, and Zhou Shaoqing's injustice will definitely be made clear."

After listening to Hou Xun's words, Zhou You actually became quiet.

Why Hou Xun treats Zuo Liangyu differently and promotes aggressively, the source is probably also because of this incident.

When Zhou Chaorui was wrongfully imprisoned and the Zhou family was about to be destroyed, the other Donglin party members watched, but could not do anything.

It should be Hou Xun who came forward and found Zuo Liangyu, who went home to save his relatives, and asked him to take Zhouyou to Liaodong to hide.

Liaodong is the land of the four battles, and there are many crises.

If it was an ordinary person, hiding the prisoners, I was afraid that my courage would be broken.

But Zuo Liangyu is different.

Not to mention his boldness, he has a very strong gambling heart.

He knew that Hou Xun was a great official. If Hou Xun accepted his kindness this time, his future glory and wealth would be indispensable.

So Zuo Liangyu agreed and quietly took Zhou Chaorui's youngest son Zhou You away from Linqing and hid in the Liaodong army.

This kind of kindness is too great, and it is impossible for Hou Xun not to express it.

Zuo Liangyu's rapid promotion was not because Sun Chengzong took a fancy to him, but Hou Xun played a role in it.

This can also explain why Hou Xun was so amiable and amiable when facing Zuo Liangyu, never arrogant.

Civil servants in the Ming Dynasty treated military generals as straight as a lackey, and were light in beatings and scoldings.

But Hou Xun is kind to Zuo Liangyu, and the root cause is here.

Zuo Menggeng was very excited when a historical fog was revealed.

Over there, Feng Lun was not timid in the face of public anger, but he was also a person.

"Emperor's first time on the treasure, you have no relatives, so you scoundrels and thieves are blinded for a while. After a while, the emperor will be able to see clearly the faces of you people with ulterior motives. At that time, the emperor will be able to You will understand that only we, the rootless slaves, can think of the emperor wholeheartedly. Hou Ruogu, let's wait and see, who wins and who loses, not sure."

He suddenly smiled, his expression gloomy.

"Maybe...you won't see that day."

Hou Xun did not give in an inch, and his voice was deafening and loud.

"The right way is great, and it lasts forever. You and other people who are charming and pleasing to the Lord and seek glory, corrupt the country, society, and people, and cause this China to be shaken by wind and rain. I am here, and I will not let you wait for the ashes to revive."

Feng Lun laughed again, but this time he laughed hard, but there was no laughter at all.

After a long while, he calmed down a little.

"Why do we poor people get favor? Just because we are loyal. We only have the emperor in our hearts, and only know how to do things for the emperor. The emperor will always be the emperor, and sooner or later the emperor will understand, who is trustworthy and who is the best. Generation of wild wolves."

After that, he waved his hand, and the mighty team set off again, brushing the edge of the crowd, and went far away.

In the cold wind, Feng Lun's nondescript singing voice faintly floated.

"Wake up, put on the dragon robe, and sit in front of the hall. Who is the loyal minister and who is the thief? After careful consideration, all eyes are full of colorful jackals, wolves, tigers and leopards..."

There was silence on the pier, and everyone looked at Feng Lun's whereabouts.For a time, their minds were twisting and turning, and they all had different tastes.

Hou Xun snorted coldly, his eyes were full of anger, and shouted: "Let's go."

The banquet arranged by the Zhang family was sumptuous, grand and luxurious.

There are many talented people, countless talented people, and the popular bosses specially invited, it is a lively scene.

The adults are happy in one place, and the juniors are embarrassed in another.

Opposite each other, can't wait to face each other.

Zhang Haogu cocked his legs and chewed the chicken legs flying, deliberately irritating.

"Several, eat. It's rare to eat such delicacies, right? You're welcome, after this village, there will be no such shop."

Liu Yiyuan and the others on the opposite side glared at each other. If it weren't for Zhang's family, there were so many adults present, and it was estimated that they would do it.

There are two children next to them, sitting in a proper manner, watching the situation a little nervously.

One came with Hou Xun, and the other was Zhang Lingxi, the son of Zhang Zhenxiu.

Zhang Lingxi also looks like eight or nine years old, but he is very smart, and he is also different from Zhang Haogu's ruffian.

He stood up and apologized to Liu Yiyuan and others.

"Liu's brother, Geng's brother, Wang's brother, my cousin has nothing to say, please don't take it to heart, the younger brother will make amends on his behalf."

Liu Yiyuan, Geng Zhangguang and others are angry again, and it is impossible to get along with a child.

"Brother Xixian, please don't worry, I'll be fine."

Zhang Hao's quaint nose is crooked.

"Zhang Lingxi, who are you with?"

Zhang Lingxi shook his head and had a reason.

"It's great to have a friend from afar. Today, there are many guests in the Zhang family, so my younger brother is naturally overjoyed."

In Zhang Haogu's flushed old face, a group of people burst into laughter, and even Zuo Menggeng couldn't help laughing.

I didn't expect Zhang Zhenxiu's son to be so interesting.

Zuo Menggeng couldn't help but look at him a few more times when he thought that when this child was in Chongzhen for fifteen years, he followed his father Zhang Zhenxiu, Liu Yuanqing and others to defend the city and finally died heroically for the country.

Zhang Lingxi just happened to look over.

"Brother Zuo, I heard that you went to Liaodong to join the army. Have you ever fought against Donglu?"

The situation in Liaodong is of concern to the people of the world, and when they heard him ask this question, everyone could not help but prick up their ears.

Zuo Menggeng shook his head.

"I am still young, and my father is not allowed to go to the battlefield."

Liu Yiyuan was delighted, and said sarcastically: "Everyone says that the second left is unparalleled in both fists and feet, and his martial arts are extraordinary. How can you become a coward when you are on the battlefield?"

If it was in the past, Zuo Menggeng would definitely be furious and had to make a good fight.

This is also the purpose of Liu Yiyuan.

Today, the big bosses are gathered, if Zuo Menggeng makes trouble regardless of the occasion, the end will definitely be terrible.

Unexpectedly, Zuo Menggeng's face did not change, as if he was not the one being mocked.

"The punches and kicks we usually practice are different from the fights on the battlefield. In the hedging of the army, there is no room for moves and so on. It is a simple and selfless slashing. Whoever can chop more accurately will survive."

There are a bunch of young people here. Although they are very curious about the military, how can they know the real situation of the battlefield.

Hearing what he said, I couldn't help but be surprised.

Liu Yiyuan also froze, and then became annoyed.

How did you get fooled?
"Don't brag. I am the true biography of a famous teacher. How can I not know how to fight? You are a coward, what excuses are you looking for?"

It's on your own.

Zuo Menggeng looked at Liu Yiyuan and recalled this person's information.

In history, this person was admitted to Wujuren not long after, indicating that he was a talent.

Especially since he was born in the Liu family and said that he was an all-rounder in both civil and military affairs, that was not false at all.

If this person is brought under his command...

"I was in Liaodong, although I couldn't get on the battlefield. But on the way back, in the land of Jifu, I really fought several thieves. If Brother Liu doesn't believe it, let's learn from each other?"

Hearing this, Liu Yiyuan was excited.

"Okay."

He was still not satisfied.

"Second from the left, we didn't decide the winner last time. We played this time, what do you say?"

Zuo Menggeng looked at this aggressive young man with a funny look, and asked, "Brother Liu, what's your opinion?"

Liu Yiyuan looked over provocatively.

"If you lose, you must call your second brother when you see me from now on. Where I am, I will sit, but you can only stand. I drink tea, and you pour water. Do you dare to promise?"

Shandong people in Canada, never called the eldest brother, but the second brother.

Who is Wu Erlang famous?

You call others Dalang, what do you mean?
Hearing Liu Yiyuan's condition that there is almost no retreat, Zuo Menggeng just wanted to laugh.

"Success. But if you lose, from now on, you will be my little brother. You can do whatever I ask you to do."

A layer of anger flashed across Liu Yiyuan's face, he stood up, and said angrily, "That depends on whether you have the ability."

Zuo Menggeng stood up and walked out from behind the dining table to the open space in the middle.

"If you have the ability, you have to try it before you know."
