The Red House starts from Liaodong

Chapter 113 Contradictions between husband and wife
Wang Fengsu spent a lot of money this time, taking a lot of dioramas, perfume, and finally gave Qin a full-length mirror.

Qin Keqing swayed in front of the mirror, first took a step back in fright, and was reluctant to leave after waking up.

This thing... is really too lethal.

Wang Fengsu finally opened the door of Jinzhou through the doorway of his wives, and became the guest of each family.

One is a monk, and the other is old enough to be the father or even the grandfather of these women without being rude.

Although the Confucian scholars in Jinzhou were easy to deal with, he found that he did not have much power, and the generals in Jinzhou were not interested in what he said, and they never saw him.

Having been a missionary all his life, how to sway the glory of the Lord in the wasteland is his job.

Therefore, within two months of coming to Jinzhou, many poor people have been attracted as believers.

But he knows that in a strange country, without official support, the more believers there are, the easier it is for accidents to happen.

When he was in Lushun, there was an official who was very interested in him. He had already persuaded him to join the religion, but after all he didn't dare, and instead gave him advice.

According to him, although it was a bit thrilling, it succeeded in the end.

This time I came to the General Military Mansion again, and talked about some Western things in front of many women, which aroused bursts of exclamation.

Even Qin Keqing was fascinated, not to mention the other women.

"I have traveled all over Jinzhou. Under the rule of the general, people live and work in peace and contentment, with smiles on their faces. I have come all the way from the southernmost part of Dazhou, except for some big and prosperous cities.

For example, Jinling, Yangzhou, etc., apart from these places, the people here in General are the happiest. "

Wang Fengsu is a Hongyi monk, which is novel and funny, so his words can easily make everyone happy.

Qin Keqing said with a smile, "The old monk is talking nonsense in order to deceive people. It can be seen that overseas temples are generally the same."

"The old monk doesn't know what the temple of Dazhou looks like, but our country adopts orphans, feeds them and lets them study.

Throughout the Golden State, I have also seen many orphans who became thieves and beggars in order to fill their stomachs.

Therefore, I beg my wife to allow me to take them in, which is considered a merit. "

Wang Fengsu was not ashamed and talked about the good things from abroad, but Qin Keqing didn't agree immediately when he heard about it.

"There are orphans all over the Golden State. It's really strange. It's our negligence. I will pass your words on to the general."

Qin Keqing sent someone to send Wang Fengsu away.

Tang Qing'an was in the midst of intensive communication with Xie Youcheng at this time. In the past few days, the two of them would talk every day.

"From the information I gathered in Liaozuo, the old slave has not shown signs of preparing to go to war since the beginning of the new year, but has scattered sergeants to search everywhere.

It can be inferred from this that the opponent's supplies are poor and unable to dispatch an army in a short period of time. This is the result of the Battle of Haizhou. "

Xie Youcheng smiled.

The impact of the Battle of Haizhou was too great, affecting all aspects.

After confirming that the old slave would not come to take revenge on Jinzhou, Tang Qing'an wanted to disturb him.

"I only went to the imperial court last year to go north to recover the lost land. This year, the old slave has deployed heavy troops in Fuzhou.

Is the old slave cautious, or is someone passing the news? "

Xie Youcheng disagreed.

"The matter in the court is originally confidential, but the secrecy has never been strong, and there are those smugglers who tipped off the old slave, so it is not surprising that the old slave knows."

Having said this, Xie Youcheng laughed again.

"At the beginning, the general only said to go north to recover the lost ground, but he didn't say where to go north to recover the lost ground. Isn't it just to prevent this from happening?"

"Mister knows me."

The two smiled at each other.

Thirty Hongyi cannons were all placed in Jinzhou, and Xu Shoufu didn't even ask for the new gold. The fear was that if the city outside fell, the Hongyi cannons would be taken by the old slave.

The location of Fuzhou is not as good as that of Jinzhou. Regardless of the fact that it cannot be defeated, even if it is defeated, and the Hongyi cannons are deployed, there is a [-]% certainty that Fuzhou can be defended against the barbarian attack.

But what if.

Tang Qing'an didn't gamble on that luck.

The barbarians are currently invincible in the field battle, and it is true that the elite soldiers of the Great Zhou Dynasty have all sacrificed.

Jinzhou City drilled the battalions and improved their combat effectiveness, but it was not yet time to compete with the barbarians outside of field battles.

Therefore, focusing on defense and supplemented by harassment is still Golden State's current strategy.

As for the Hongyi Cannon, even if there was even a slight possibility, it could not be gambled. If the barbarians were allowed to obtain the Hongyi Cannon, the city of Great Zhou would be useless.

Golden State is also in danger.

So when he said going north, he still used the sea to attack, looking for the weak points of the opponent on the long coastline, and using the strong to attack the weak.

"This time, sir, you are going to Zhenjiang, thousands of miles away, and in the enemy's hinterland, so you must be careful.

It doesn't matter if the matter is not completed. In my opinion, the safety of the husband is not as good as that of the ten Zhenjiangs. "

Although he knew that the general had some lies, but there was some friendship in it after all, Xie Youcheng was confident.

"The prestige of Jinzhou has spread all over Liaozuo, and it seems like a tiger with wings to me. I'm not worried about being discovered, but I'm just worried that the general's words will change the situation."

"In my prediction, Zhenjiang is too far away from the old slave's hinterland, so there shouldn't be too many troops stationed there. In addition, I have never sent ships beyond Shicheng Island, and I have not even conquered Deer Island, just to avoid alarming Zhenjiang."

In the original history, there were only a few hundred people in Zhenjiang, which is the same as the first attack on Fuzhou. The soldiers in the city all went out of the city and countryside to collect their salaries.

Mao Wenlong went all the way north by boat, and won the support of many people along the way, and many volunteers joined him.

Someone in Zhenjiang city tipped off the news again, and after this, Mao Wenlong captured Zhenjiang.

Tang Qing'an is not sure whether he will have this convenience now that he has appeared and changed history.

But after all, I have to try it, so I will trouble Xie Youcheng.

Xie Youcheng raised some smart people, and coupled with his contacts in various places, many people tipped him off and sent Jinzhou information from various places in Liaozuo.

The most important person among them was Tang Qing'an's old acquaintance.

Tang Qing'an personally sent Xie Youcheng out of the city, and when he returned to the mansion, he saw Qin Keqing in front of the mirror, with Qingwen and Jin Chuan'er on both sides, swaying in front of the mirror from time to time.

"cough."

Tang Qing'an coughed, and few people knew that the general was back.

Qin Keqing smiled and told what Wang Fengsu had said about the orphan during the day, and even dragged Tang Qing'an to look at the mirror.

It was a rare thing for them, but Tang Qing'an was not.

Not only did she not obey Qin Keqing, she sat down straight down, her face sank, which frightened Qin Keqing, Qingwen, and Jin Chuan'er.

"It turns out that there are no orphans in Jinzhou, but over the past year, there have been many more orphans. Why?
Because Jinzhou was short of food in the past, everyone couldn't eat enough. Now it's better, but it's not much better.

Some people became ill because of this, fell ill and died.

The people in the city of Jinzhou are not like ordinary families in the past. There are many people in a family. Now the people in Jinzhou have only two or three people in a family.

When the adults died of illness, these children became orphans, and no one could afford to adopt them.I originally thought about building an orphanage to take in all these children. "

Qin Keqing thought it was this incident that made her husband angry, with a look of grievance on his face.

"Husband doesn't agree with this matter, so why be angry? I will turn around and reject that Hongyi monk, and return this mirror to him."

Tang Qing'an shook his head.

He didn't think of this at first, but now that he heard it, he changed his mind.

Both Jinzhou and Lushun now have schools, and the second generation of Jinzhou all study in these two places.

But there are also some good things from Westerners, which are worth learning, and it would be a pity to miss them.

If Wang Fengsu was allowed to teach in Jinzhou or Lushun's school, he would be very happy, but the gentlemen of the schools in the two places would definitely not agree.

It would be good for these orphans to go to Wang Fengsu's place, where they can learn Western learning.

In this way, one of the children in Jinzhou is Confucianism and the other is Western learning. After more than ten years, the situation will be different.

With competition, there will be progress, which is many times more effective than his own initiative, and it is not easy to cause disputes at present.

"You can promise him about Wang Fengsu and let him teach these children well, and you should lead more people to take care of these children on weekdays, so that Wang Fengsu can't mess around.

But he wants to build a church but he can’t, you tell him, next year, I will find a place for him next year. "

Qin Keqing became more and more strange.

"Since this is the case, why are you so angry? It seems to scare the two girls."

"You've been a little too active recently, the women in Jinzhou City have such a great reputation, even Shi Gong of Jinzhou wrote to me to ask me.

Since the last time you were allowed to go out of the city, you are like wild horses that have run wild. You can count it yourself. How many times have you gone out of the city in the past half month?
I didn't care at first, but others could see it and point fingers. "

There is a limit to everything, the atmosphere in the interior is what it is, but Jinzhou is a new atmosphere, with tens of 10 people, most of them come from various places in Liaozuo.

Therefore, the family members of Jinzhou officials and generals, compared with those in the mainland, do not know how much more presumptuous they are.

Now the army has been affected, some generals are not good at handling affairs, urging their family members to come to the General Military Mansion every day to seek connections.

This was something Tang Qing'an didn't want to see, hence this section.

Qin Keqing was criticized a lot, and she was angry, afraid and wronged. She worked so hard, it was because of him.

Tang Qing'an ignored her and asked Jin Chuan'er to call Li Rujing for dinner.

Some rules are rules, and some rules are not rules in Tang Qing'an's place.

At the dinner table, Li Rujing saw that the godmother's eyes were slightly red, so she knew that the atmosphere was not right, so she didn't dare to say anything, so she ate up the meal in a few mouthfuls, and took a chance to slip away.

Jin Chuaner rushed out to stop him, stepped forward and took out a handkerchief, wiped the corner of Li Rujing's mouth, and put the handkerchief in front of Li Rujing's eyes.

"look."

There are two grains of rice on the handkerchief.

Li Rujing smiled embarrassingly, and Jin Chuaner also smiled, and then let him go.

In the evening, after Tang Qing'an washed and lay down on the bed, when she was about to fall asleep, Qin Keqing was only wearing a pink jacket, and with her slender hands as smooth as jewels, she lifted the silk cover, and fell asleep next to Tang Qing'an.

Tang Qing'an turned over and didn't bother to pay attention to her.

soon.

There was a choking sound, and after a while, he cried again, "I have everything, and my husband is still mad at me."

Tang Qing'an was stunned immediately, all thoughts were gone, only ecstasy remained.
