Chapter 11 Qiu Hejia

Although Jiang Yi understood, it was a pity that Yang Xiong and Gao Meng still had doubts on their faces.Li Xin sighed, this Jiang Yi's skills may not be as good as Yang Xiong and Gao Meng's, but if this level of vigilance, the latter is far inferior to the former.It was as if in a war, Jiang Yi was a commander in chief, but Yang Xiong and Gao Meng could only be generals who charged forward. This is the difference between the two, so Li Xin ordered Jiang Yi.

After another hour, they saw a huge city appearing in front of everyone, and everyone gasped. Even if Li Xin saw modern high-rise buildings, this was not the first city Li Xin and others saw. Even at this moment, everyone in Beijing City, the capital of the Ming Dynasty, has seen it before, but facing Jinzhou City at this moment is an unprecedented shock.But thinking about it, there are very few cities in the vast Guandong Plain. More importantly, this Jinzhou City was the last line of defense in Liaodong in the Ming Dynasty. After its completion, the city is no less solid than Beijing.

"Master, do you think that kid is waiting there?" Gao Meng pointed at a group of people under the city gate suddenly with his sharp eyes.Everyone looked around, whoever it was if it wasn't Zu Zerun, who was leading a troop of cavalry standing under the city gate at the moment, although his expression couldn't be seen clearly, but it could be imagined, I'm afraid his face was full of pride !

"It's just a villain." Yang Xiong said disdainfully.The corners of Jiang Yi's mouth twitched, and a trace of coldness appeared in his eyes.

"Hehe! It doesn't matter if he's an official and I'm a criminal." Li Xin waved his hand.Said: "Besides, although I am a criminal, I will not be under his control when I arrive in Jinzhou. Governor Qiu must not let me, a scholar, be insulted by him!" Li Xin is right about this point. In other words, since the Song Dynasty, the status of literati has greatly increased. In the Ming Dynasty, the military commander in charge of a province was called the general soldier, but in front of the governor, the general soldier had no status at all, and even in front of ordinary county magistrates, the general soldier Soldiers are also helpless.This shows the status of scholars in the Ming Dynasty.Although Li Xin is a prisoner, in the eyes of Qiu Hejia and others, no matter whether he is a prisoner or not, he is a scholar, and this status has not changed in the slightest.Let Li Xin work as a coolie with those criminals, and be bullied by those army ruffians together. Once this kind of thing gets out, Qiu Hejia's reputation among scholars will be ruined.It is also because of this that Li Xin has such an idea and is not afraid of Zu Zerun.

"Haha, isn't this Mr. Li's? Why did you bring this wooden shackle again?" When everyone reached the bottom of the tower, Zu Zerun came slowly on the horse, raised the whip in his hand and pointed at it. Li Xin sneered and said: "No matter what your identity is, remember that this is Liaodong. In Liaodong, my ancestors have the final say. Haha!" Zu Zerun laughed out loud.

"So, your ancestral family is the king of Liaodong. I really don't know when His Majesty named a Liaodong king. Or your ancestral family is preparing to stand on its own with Liaodong." Li Xin's face was cold, and there was a glint in his eyes. The cold light flashed by, and he snorted coldly: "Zu Zerun, you are so courageous. Is it you who want to rebel against the army, or your father Zu Dashou wants to rebel against the army, or maybe you have already colluded with Donglu , exchange Liaodong for my status as King of Liaodong?"

"You, you are presumptuous, you are slandering." Zu Zerun looked terrified, and looked around with his eyes wandering, as if he was afraid that someone around would overhear.One must know that this was the Ming Dynasty, and the spies of Jinyiwei, Dongchang, and Xichang were all well-known in the Ming Dynasty. More importantly, his father was still hiding in the barracks, fearing that Jinyiwei would come to him.At this time, if Li Xin's words were heard by those spies, his ancestral family would become even worse than Li Xin's.

"I'm presumptuous? I think you are the one who is bold." Li Xin's eyes were full of power, and he sneered, "You straddle your horse and march your troops, showing off your power. I have a decree from the government that the mobilization of a hundred cavalry is regarded as treason unless the Ministry of War is mobilized or when there is a big war. How many cavalry have you mobilized now, not for marching and fighting, but for receiving your precious bow. Zu Zerun, can you really think that this Guanning cavalry belongs to your ancestors? Remember, this is Jinzhou, is it? The land of Ming Dynasty, here, the emperor is the sky, and the emperor has the final say. What are you, can you replace His Majesty the emperor?"

"You, you are pure slander." Zu Zerun's eyes were full of horror, where there was no madness just now. At this time, Li Xin in front of him is the monster who eats people and does not spit out bones. He didn't dare to show his face in front of Li Xin, for fear of what Li Xin would say next.Scared, he hurriedly led the cavalry under his command and roared away, how could he dare to stay here.His expression was extremely embarrassing.

"Leaving?" Yang Xiong looked at the team of cavalry in surprise, his eyes wide open. He didn't understand how Zu Zerun, who was flaunting his power just now, retreated so easily, and he still looked extremely embarrassed.

"If he doesn't leave, the young master will put him to death." Jiang Yi also looked at Li Xin with curious eyes.Originally, he was thinking about what method to use to save Li Xin's life, but he didn't expect to scare Zu Zerun away with just a few words from Li Xin. Not now.And in the future, as long as he joins Qiu Hejia's army, he and others will be able to save Li Xin's life.

"Young master, I have long disliked him, and I wanted to cut him off just now." Gao Meng said with a muffled grunt.

"Don't worry, there are plenty of opportunities." Li Xin looked at the towering Jinzhou City in front of him, and there was a hint of thought in his eyes. He was thinking about how to get close to Qiu Hejia. In the land of Liaodong, Li Xin faced death at any time. , in front of him, the Jin army would invade at any time, but there, Zu Zerun obviously would not let Li Xin go.

"Is Mr. Li Xin Li in front?" At this moment, a man dressed as a yamen servant rushed out on a war horse.

"The villain is Li Xin." Li Xin looked at the person in front of him curiously, not understanding how anyone could recognize him in Liaodong.He thought he was just a prisoner, but he was called a son by the other party.A scholar can be called a son, but if he is just a scholar who has made mistakes, how can he be honored by others.

"Sun Er, the governor of Xiaqiu's yamen, was ordered by the governor of Qiu to invite you to go to the mansion to talk." When the yamen servant saw Li Xin, he didn't dare to be presumptuous, jumped off his horse, and said hurriedly, clasping his hands.

"Governor Qiu invited me?" Li Xin looked at the servant named Sun Er in surprise.He didn't understand at all, he didn't know Qiu Hejiasu, so how could he know Li Xin?And it was such a coincidence that he was noticed by the other party just after he arrived in Jinzhou.Is there really such a good thing in the world?
"Exactly. The villain dare not lie to the young master." The second grandson said hastily.

"In that case, I ask Catcher Sun to lead the way." After thinking about it, Li Xin decided to meet this Qiu Hejia, not to mention that he was thinking about how to join Qiu Hejia now. It seems that Qiu Hejia still has a good impression of himself.That being the case, it is possible to rely on Qiu Hejia for a way out.

"Young master is really lucky. He escaped from General Zu Zerun's life." Sun Er led Li Xin and others into Jinzhou City. This Jinzhou City is probably located in the frontier, and Li Xin's eyes are mostly majestic. man of.

"The young general Zu is probably just trying to scare the villain." Li Xinxin was secretly surprised that this Qiu Hejia had inquired about Zu Zerun's affairs with himself. How long did it take to know his affairs? Now, it seems that this Qiu Hejia may not be a simple thing.I am afraid that in Zu Dashou's army, eyeliner is also arranged.

"He's not trying to scare you, Young Master. In Jinzhou City, Young General Zu has killed countless people, and I don't know how many thugs died at the hands of Young General." Sun Er sneered, "Only Young Master is sincere. Only people who can say that about that thug."

Li Xin only laughed dryly when he heard the words, but he sighed in his heart. In this borderland of Ming Dynasty, Hou Jin was watching over him, and civil servants and generals were still fighting with each other. With such a situation, how could the Ming Dynasty not perish?

People passed by the street, and along the way, there was constant hawking. With the brief military victory of the Ming Dynasty in Liaodong, Jinzhou City gradually became lively. There were countless merchants coming and going, especially people like Zhang Yifu. Not a lot.It's just that these people looked at Li Xin very curiously.Although he was dressed in prison clothes, he came here at least. The servants around him didn't look like escorts, but servants serving them.It is very surprising.

In less than a moment, a huge building appeared in front of Li Xin, with the words "Jinzhou Government Office" written on it. Under the plaque, there was an old man about 50 or [-] years old standing under the dripping eaves in a Taoist robe.His cheeks were sunken, a trace of frost appeared on his temples, his brows were tightly furrowed, and although there was a trace of depth in his eyes, they were more dignified.

"My lord, please take Mr. Li back." The second grandson quickly bowed down when he saw the old man.

"The villain Li Xin pays his respects to the governor." When Li Xin saw this, he didn't know that the person in Taoist robes in front of him was Qiu Hejia, the governor of Liaodong.What he didn't know was that this Qiu Hejia not only came out to greet him in person, but also wore Taoist robes. In the Ming Dynasty, Taoist robes were just people's regular clothing, not the kind of Taoist robes used by monks to become Taoists.

"Nephew, you don't need to be too polite." When Qiu Hejia saw Li Xin, he quickly stepped forward to help him up, his skinny hands seemed extremely powerful.Although Li Xin was brave, he was unwilling to bow in front of others, and stood up taking advantage of the situation.

"Brother Ren Zhixian can have a son like you, even if he is under Jiuquan, he can rest in peace." Qiu Hejia looked at Li Xin for a while, then took Li Xin's hand, and gently patted: "It's a pity Yes, the old man is far away in Liaodong, if he had not received the letter from the revived virtuous brother, he would not have known about Ren Zhi." Qiu Hejia sighed endlessly in words.

However, Li Xin was confused when he heard this, Ren Zhi was Li Gu's words, he only knew this after listening to Gao Meng's suggestion along the way, but he didn't know who this resurrection was.And the relationship between Qiu Hejia and Li Gu made Li Xin even more confused.Could it be that Li Gu and Qiu Hejia are good friends?
