Great Warriors of Sui and Tang Dynasties

Chapter 606
Huaiyang.

Xiangcheng.

The ancient state of Chen was said to be the capital of the Taihao Fuxi clan and the Shennong clan. Yu was ordered to give the surname Yao to Chen. At the beginning of the Western Zhou Dynasty, Chen was one of the twelve vassal states of the Zhou Dynasty.

This is a land of hidden dragons and crouching tigers.

In the private school of a powerful family in Xiangcheng, Huaiyang, the private school teacher Liu Zhiyuan heard a news after class.

The emperor was attacked in Yanmen, Turkic Shibi Khan sent 30 troops to encircle Yanmen, and even destroyed dozens of cities in Mayi Yanmen. The emperor was in danger.

After hearing this news, Mr. Private School's heart, which had been silent for two years, seemed to surge again.

this evening.

He was lying on the couch in the small bedroom in the private school, tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep for a long time.

He thought hard.

Ask hard.

Could it be that he will die of old age here for the rest of his life, will he remain anonymous all his life, and be a private school teacher here?

Feeling depressed, he couldn't help getting up and lighting the lamp, and wrote a five-character poem with his pen.

"At the beginning of the golden phoenix swing, the jade dew withers in the late forest; this evening, the poor traveler, the empty heart is empty.

Looking at and listening to a lot of feelings, generosity alone sticks to the lapel; what does the lapel do?Feeling nostalgic.

The customs of Qin are still unresolved, He Ji, the general of the Han Dynasty;

Once the fortunes of the dynasty match, the famous utensils will be passed down through the ages; it is a shame to say that the heroes in the world are born in vain. "

After writing the poem, he rarely opened a jar of rice wine in the cabinet, and drank it alone until dawn, using the wine to soothe his worries and sorrows, and finally fell asleep in pain and drunkenness.

After dawn, the students found that the teacher did not come to class today.

Another private school teacher came over and saw that he was sound asleep, and there was still a poem on the table in the corner of the room.

The old gentleman was over half a century old, and he understood the poem at a glance.In all fairness, this poem is not a good poem, it is very easy to understand, and it is normal for a young private school teacher to write a poem of this level.

What is surprising is the content of this poem. The first four sentences describe dissatisfaction with the status quo and express a strong desire to make contributions.

The last four sentences express my ambition to succeed.

Simple and popular, but very imposing.

Especially the sentence that the world is a hero, it is really shameful to be born in vain.

What does this mean?
The old gentleman understood at once that this was an anti-poem.

Expressing dissatisfaction with the current imperial court everywhere, this is trying to rebel.

This gentleman has been in this private school for many years. In the past two years, when this young gentleman came, he was always very lonely, especially because he didn't pay attention to him as an old gentleman. Even because of his arrival, his status was put in jeopardy.

The old gentleman looked at the black-faced gentleman who was still sleeping soundly on the bed, folded up the poem, stuffed it in his sleeve, and went out to inform the police.

Fortunately, there was someone in the government office who was related to the boss. Hearing that there was a traitor in the relative's house, he quickly notified him in advance.

That owner was not bad, and he didn't want the government to catch a traitor from his home and hurt himself, so he sent someone to inform this well-educated gentleman, suggesting that he leave.

The young gentleman slipped away in embarrassment.

Although he was not caught, after escaping, he felt even more lost.

Standing at the crossroads, he was even more confused, where am I going?
When I came out in a hurry, I didn't bring anything.

Penniless and unaccompanied, what should I do?
After much deliberation, he finally decided to go to a relative nearby.

Although he knew it was dangerous, he really had nowhere to go.

After finally finding a relative's house, he waited until after dark to knock on the door, but when the other party saw him, his eyes widened in shock.

"Master? Didn't you say that you are dead?"

Li Mi said helplessly, "I have been hiding in Tibet for the past two years, and now I have nowhere to stay. I want to stay with you for a few days, I wonder if it is possible?"

This relative is very close, he is Uncle Li Mitang's son-in-law, and he is also his cousin-in-law. He was born in a poor family back then, but because he was relatively talented, he was married off by the Li family's prime minister, and entered into an official career relying on the Li family's resources.

But at this time, this relative did not even let Li Mi enter.

He said in a very embarrassing way, "Are you a fugitive wanted now, or a major crime of rebellion, I can't take you in."

The door is closed.

Li Mi stood there in a daze for a long time. Every time this cousin-in-law came to visit his house, he always had a humble attitude.

He turned and left helplessly.

After walking for a while, my cousin caught up.

"Brother, you can't blame him. You committed such a serious crime, and he was expelled from office because of you. Now he can only stay at home, very depressed. Brother, don't blame us for being ruthless. Now we There are family members, there are old and young, and if the government finds out that you have been taken in, and the investigation is carried out, our whole family will die."

While talking, the cousin handed him a bundle, which contained two sets of clothes, some jewelry and a little money.

"You take these things with you. There is a local man named Wang Xiucai. He is a heroic man, but he likes to make friends. You might as well vote for him. As long as you don't reveal your identity, you should be fine. Besides, Wang Xiucai is currently recruiting a son-in-law. You Maybe he can be his son-in-law."

The cousin felt that keeping Li Mi at home would be too easy to expose, but the risk of going to vote for Wang Xiucai was much smaller.

After hearing this, Li Mi also knew that his cousin's family was also benevolent.

After all, even though he helped his brother-in-law back then, he rebelled and implicated the entire Li family. It would have been nice if he didn't go to inform and receive the reward, so he could only nod and leave with a wry smile.

Taking the clothes and money from his cousin, he went all the way to Wang Xiucai's house.

Wang Xiucai, whose surname is Wang Xiucai, is not a scholar, but he used to be a knight-errant, and now he is a well-known local landlord and benevolent man. He is good at making friends, chivalrous and courageous, and good at giving. He is just old, and his two sons died in battle one after another. , the youngest son died of illness, leaving only an only daughter in the family.

Wang Xiucai was old and wanted to open up, so he wanted to recruit a son-in-law to inherit the family business.

When Li Mi came, he didn't really have any hope, after all, his cousin wouldn't take him in.

But he was really desperate.

After arriving, he discovered that Wang Xiucai was really a strange person.

He was a ranger in his youth, and was best at helping others.

He also used to be a soldier in the government, but later quit the military government due to injury, returned home and inherited the family business, and became a powerful landlord.

Li Mi and him hit it off right away, and the two chatted very well.

Wang Xiucai was forthright and generous, while Li Mi was knowledgeable. The two talked about the world, the past and the present, and they talked for a whole day.

Li Mi finally made a decision. He told Wang Xiucai his identity. He was Li Mi, and he had helped Yang Xuangan raise an army. He said this only because he didn't want to disappoint Wang Xiucai's trust in him.

I planned to leave after I finished speaking, but unexpectedly, Wang Xiucai actually made a decision after hearing it.

He wants to marry his daughter to Li Mi.

"You trust me, and I appreciate you. No matter what happened in the past, as long as you are willing to stay, you can live here with peace of mind." Wang Xiucai said.

Li Mi was very moved, and the heart that was once again in turmoil couldn't help but fell silent again.

He decided to stay, changed his name to Liu Xuan, and then lived an ordinary life with Wang Xiucai's daughter.

It's just that this kind of life didn't last long. On the second day of their wedding, Li Mi went shopping in the city and came back, but a shocking change happened at home.

Both Wang Xiucai and his wife were arrested.

The neighbor of his cousin's husband secretly reported to the government, so Wang Xiucai and his daughter were arrested. Li Mi escaped because of accidental accident, but Wang Xiucai and his daughter were immediately executed for covering up the traitor after being arrested.

Li Mi hid in the crowd and saw with his own eyes that Wang Xiucai and his wife were beheaded in public.His cousin-in-law and his cousin's family were also beheaded together.

Watching them being killed one by one, Li Mi's heart was pierced like a knife. His heart that was originally silent started beating again, and it was extremely violent.

Wiping away his tears, Li Mi headed north. He no longer plans to hide in Tibet. He wants to rise up and resist, and he wants to bury the evil Sui Dynasty with his own hands!
He was going to find the rebels, he was going to join them, he was going to avenge Wang Xiucai and his wife, no matter how much the price was, he was determined to fight to the end.

"Li Mi was not born to me, the Central Plains is like a long night! Let me, Li Mi, turn you upside down!"
