please make me king

Chapter 6 Green Plum Cooking Wine
Daoist Ma was used to living a good life these days, so he deliberately refused.Unexpectedly, Zhang Shun agreed in advance.

Daoist Ma complained: "This Li Baihu is so stingy, it makes him unhappy to see us eating and drinking him. This is to drive us away, why does Brother Zhang accept him?"

"After all, Li Baihu has the grace to save my life. Don't say that we eat and drink for nothing, even if it has nothing to do with it. I have to agree to it. If the Taoist priest feels that the journey is difficult, you can wait here for me and Yinggui It’s okay to come back.” Zhang Shun thought to himself that this fellow has a thick skin.

"Wherever you go, I will follow you poorly. If you can meet a real dragon in this life and fly at any time, I must hurry up." Daoist Ma expressed his opinion immediately.

"You are a feudal superstition! Whatever you want, don't get nothing in the end, just don't get angry and blame me." Seeing him mentioning this again, Zhang Shun felt helpless.

Originally, years ago, he was imprisoned innocently and was rescued by someone for no reason. He also had the idea of ​​"my destiny is my destiny" for a while.However, in the past six months, my life still hasn't improved at all. On the contrary, I've gotten to the point where I'm eating and drinking, and I don't dare to ask for nothingness.

People, you still have to walk the road steadily and live the current life well.Originally, some time ago, he thought he had mastered the "dragon slaying technique", and he tried to gather a group of people, learn characters, practice formation, and make a difference in troubled times.As a result, the villagers in my own village did not support me, and the farmer of the owner of Li Zhuang also did not agree with me. It can be seen that the "true man" is talking nonsense, and he still has to stick to materialism.

However, in the past six months, I learned some traditional characters with Ma Daochang, and I was barely a literate person. By the way, I also taught Liu Ying, the grandson of Liu old man, several hundred characters.In fact, he didn't know that Taoist Ma knew that he had never been to a private school and found a husband, but he learned to read and write so quickly, and he firmly believed that he had the destiny of "the real son of heaven".Not to mention, because he was imprisoned because of his appearance and fate before, now Chenzhoucheng's rumors that Zhang Shun is the "true son" are spreading more and more widely.

It's just because he's bored in Zhangjiazhuang and Lijiazhuang these days, so he doesn't know.Even the magistrate of Chenzhou, who was already restless because of this, urged Li Baihu from time to time to drive Zhang Shun away as soon as possible.I was afraid that one day the superiors would hear about this rumor and get to the bottom of it, which would involve the release of Zhang Shun.This was also one of the reasons why Li Baihu wanted to drive them away, for fear that he would be involved and lose the lives of his family.

And after a few days, the weather is getting warmer, and it has reached the middle of May.Li Baihu and the others bought five hundred shi of grain from Nanzhili, and transported it to the shore of Yingqikou in Chenzhou through Yingshui.

It was late at night, so Li Baihu took them outside the village and waited for a few people to meet up, and then drove to Yingqikou by car.This Yingqikou is an important water hub on Yingshui. When they felt it, they only saw the bright lights on the water, like daytime.There is a busy scene of traffic and traffic everywhere.Even Zhang Shun, a modern man who is used to the prosperity, can't help but sigh: If you want to get rich, you must first build roads. Building roads is worse than taking water!

Everyone boarded the boat, joined the original grain purchase team, and continued to go up the Yingshui towards Luoyang.

Zhang Shun has never traveled far in this life, but he is not familiar with the road.He didn't know that the normal waterway leading to the west should first go upstream to Fugou County, go to Zhuxian Town or near Xinzheng, and then change the road.But Li Baihu and the others deliberately did not follow the same path back and forth in order to prevent people from discovering that the amount of grain did not match the amount of salt.The road to deliver grain this time was Niyingshui, passing through Shangshui County, Xihua County, Linying County, Xuzhou, and Xiangcheng Counties, and disembarking at Yuzhou for land transportation by ox cart.

Although this road seems to be farther away, compared to the road in the direction of Fugou County, there are fewer checkpoints on the road, which is conducive to this kind of black and white business.Although Zhang Shun and the others were not seasick as northerners, they all turned pale after sitting for several days in a row.

When everyone arrived in Yuzhou, they had a destination.There is a hero named Ren Chen in Yuzhou, who has quite contacts with Li Baihu and the others.This time, everyone disembarked and went to rest in Ren Chen's mansion. Li Baihu's nephew, Yi Zongqi, and Zhizhou's Mr. Qian arranged to unload the goods and transport them to the ox cart on the shore.

This Li Zongqi is the person in charge of going to Nanzhili to buy grain, and Qian Fuzi is the leader who met them and boarded the boat together.This Mr. Qian was originally the magistrate's master of money and grain, and because he suspected that Li Baihu had embezzled it privately, he was specially sent to supervise the transaction.As for whether he has the intention to replace Li Baihu, it is unknown.

So these two people couldn't get away from the goods for a moment, and Zhang Shun, Ma Daochang, and some of the servants who had already rested, all lived in Ren Chen's mansion.

This Ren Chen was originally a cheerful person, and it happened that a few heroes also came to the mansion that day.Seeing that Zhang Shun and Daoist Ma were not like ordinary people, he called them over for a drink together.

When they arrived at the table, after some excuses, Ren Chen took the main seat, followed by four others.Everyone greeted Zhang Shun and Ma Daochang to sit in the guest seats.Zhang Shun's family knew about his family affairs, so he didn't even dare to talk about it.Where did the Ma Daochang agree, he just called him "Young Master", so he "shelfed" him at the guest table.

Everyone didn't know the depth, but they saw that he was very handsome, but he was dressed in common clothes.Or think everyone's son, white dragon fish suit; or think poor and rascal, pretending.It was only when the master Ren Chen spoke that he put down his mind for the time being.

Ren Chen was in his thirties and forties, with a big beard and a loud voice, quite heroic.After some introduction, we know that the next four heroes are: Li Jiyu, Shen Jingbang, Zhang Ding and Chen Jindou.

This Li Jiyu has a strong back and a strong waist, judging by his muscles and bones, he has some martial arts skills; although Shen Jingbang and Zhang Ding beside him are tall and powerful, they talk to the above two from time to time, they seem to be two followers.

The remaining one, Chen Jindou, is the most distinctive. He has a mustache on his upper lip, but his chin is bare, and a pair of small eyes on his face that look like a pair of small eyes that move around from time to time. He has the most unseemly look.

Three rounds of wine, five flavors of food.Everyone also became acquainted, and Ren Chen started to talk, and the seven of them chatted about the general trend of the world.It may be said that although the bandits are prosperous, the imperial court dispatches elite soldiers, and they can be wiped out overnight;

It is said to be "cooking green plums and cooking wine", but it is actually similar to blowing water on the youth forums of later generations.At first, Zhang Shun didn't dare to intervene, for fear of embarrassing him.Later, when I saw that their talk was getting worse and worse, I became interested and said: "The Zhu family has ruled the world for nearly three hundred years, and now there are Tusi rebellions in the southwest, Hongyi bandits in the southeast, Jianzhou rebellion in the northeast, and Jianzhou rebellion in the northwest. There is more than Mongolia. There is chaos in the country and natural disasters occur. If you are not careful, you can know that the dynasty has changed."

Most people in this era still think in a linear way. Between words, they only grasp one point, not the rest.Only elites who are familiar with articles and history books can talk so eloquently and comprehensively.Everyone can't help being surprised.

Ren Chen got up and bowed solemnly: "I would like to be taught! Who is the one who can win the world!"

Daoist Ma listened and looked at it with his eyes.Of course Zhang Shun knew what Ma Daochang meant, but as a modern person who knew the trajectory of historical development, he still couldn't bear to hide his face and said "no one can give up me", let alone the cliché "whoever can win the hope of the world will get it" ", and had to answer vaguely: "The general trend of the world is beyond the foreseeability of ordinary people. From my perspective, it may be obtained by the benevolent and righteous, or it may be obtained by the treacherous and evil."

"I know about this!" When everyone was disappointed, someone suddenly interrupted with a high-pitched voice. When everyone saw it, it was Chen Jindou with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks.

"A few days ago, I heard a nursery rhyme, which corresponds to this."

"What nursery rhyme?" Ren Chen turned around and asked.

"Someone has a longbow and shoots at the sky at night; for three hundred and eight years, he has a great reputation!" Chen Jindou shook his head and chanted.

"What's the explanation for this rumor?" Li Jiyu asked suddenly.

"If someone wears a longbow, he will rebel; if he shoots at the sky at night, he will destroy the Ming Dynasty. For three hundred and eight years, he has a great reputation. It means that this person has a great reputation and established a new dynasty that lasted three hundred and eight years. Eight years." Chen Jindou was in high spirits, which made his wicked eyebrows look even more ridiculous.

"Then who is sitting in the world?" Ren Chen couldn't help being a little anxious, but he didn't notice Zhang Ding's unnatural expression beside him.

Daoist Ma heard his heart move, and when he was about to speak, he heard Chen Jindou say: "Don't worry, owner, listen to me carefully. I said that a few days ago, I was taking a nap, and suddenly there was a god-man Zhang Er Heaven came to me and gave me a book from heaven. I just read a few pages when I suddenly heard a noise and woke up suddenly. I don’t know what I read, but I just vaguely remember four lines of the poem.”

This time Chen Jindou didn't try to be a fool anymore, and directly chanted: "Eight cows come to sit in the world, and there are only thirty-nine wooden monkeys left; when eighteen children enter the capital, they will know that there is a real dragon in Shuntian."

"This 'eight cows come to sit in the world', I can understand it. The eight cows are Zhu Ye, and the words are Zhu tomorrow. It's just that there are three remaining sentences that I can't explain. The second sentence should be the season, and the third sentence should be telling the truth. The location of the dragon or the timing of the appearance of the real dragon, the fourth sentence may make up for it." Chen Jindou said a little hesitantly.

It's just that Chen Jindou was only interested in showing off and didn't see that when he read the third sentence, Li Jiyu's expression changed, and when he read the fourth sentence, Ma Daochang and Ren Chen seemed to have realized something.

It's just that everyone didn't see it. Zhang Shun's face was extremely ugly when he heard "Eighteen children enter the capital, and they will know that there is a real dragon in Shuntian".

Others don't know, how can Zhang Shun not know that Zhang Shun came from a later life?In the future, when Li Zicheng entered Beijing, Chongzhen hanged himself, and then Li Zicheng was defeated, and the land of China was immediately devastated and bloody.I can't help thinking: the child is also the son, and the eighteenth child is exactly the word "Li".

I was born here and grew up here, since it is the right time, I should do something for the world.Maybe I should take refuge in Li Zicheng and remind him of the threat from the northeast.As for Jianzhou, the rebels are also bloody and dare to be called real dragons!
