Dragon Soul in the late Ming Dynasty

Chapter 3

Zhu Gan was awakened by the bumps and pain. There was a simple stretcher under his body. Most of his buttocks fell below it, and it would touch the ground from time to time, which really made him want to cry without tears.

"You're awake." A slightly crisp greeting stunned Zhu Gan.

The woman who was taking care of herself in front of her was wearing an ordinary blue-purple calico dress, with a sharp melon-seeded face, and a pair of hair combed on her head. The bun was tied with a blue ribbon, making her look a little pure, but Without losing the meaning of playful and charming.

"Hello!" Zhu Gan waved his hand in a daze, such a classic and quiet woman is really rare!

After the sound of horseshoes nearby, a loud voice with a bad voice suddenly sounded: "Junior Sister! Why are you still keeping this trash! There are multiple comminuted fractures all over his body. He is just a burden in the way. It is important to leave him and run for your life."

The woman's phoenix eyes were slightly closed, and a trace of coldness flashed in her eyes. At this moment, she seemed to be a completely different person, and said with a sneer, "You don't need to take care of my affairs, as long as you take care of your own people."

Hearing this loud voice, Zhu Gan's heart sank suddenly. It seemed that instead of being grateful for saving them, he became a burden and a spurned person.

The man got bored, snorted angrily, and rode his horse to the front of the fleeing team.

Zhu Gan licked his somewhat dry lips and said: "This is summer, and I have many traumas, and bacteria will breed, making my wounds rotten and smelly, and by the way, I will also stink, smelly It can be smelled three miles away, so you still leave me behind! I am indeed a burden, and carrying me will only implicate all of you, so don't do thankless things."

Regarding the final kidnapping, everyone deliberately chose to forget it, and Zhu Gan didn't mention it, temporarily suppressing the surging storm, and these words are regarded as advancing in retreat, there is no other way, who let him now This body really needs to be relied on.

The woman in blue smiled briskly, and shrank her hand hanging under the stretcher unnaturally: "Don't think so much, if it weren't for your courage, we would all die, so strictly speaking, you are the benefactor of all of us. "

benefactor!Zhu Gan glanced at her and just smiled. I'm afraid she wouldn't think so in her heart. After all, at the last moment, he kidnapped them and made them have no choice. This will not usher in gratitude.

I'm afraid that he was able to be carried with serious injuries because he was still useful, at least he met the Golden Cavalry, and he could be handed over as the culprit for atonement.

Thinking of this, I suddenly lost my interest. I looked around on the stretcher. The scene of escaping can be described as lively. Thirty miles of bloody massacre, no chickens or dogs left, just like a curse, so that the people around did not dare to stay, and they all turned towards the direction of the capital. run away.

All of this will be blamed on him by the angry people who have lost their homes. It is sad but not ridiculous. He has to find a way to quickly get rid of the unfavorable situation in front of him.

"Hey! What's your name?" Although in the era of the rise of Cheng-Zhu Neo-Confucianism in the Ming Dynasty, men and women were fighting against each other, but there were also countless schools of thought. It can be seen that folk or official thinking is not rigid, so Zhu Gan has no scruples and directly inquired.

For this seemingly sour scholar, but without any sourness, the woman in blue laughed lightly, her voice was clear and slow, with a bit of playfulness, as if she were an innocent girl: " Slave Yang Ling, dare to ask your benefactor's name?"

If it wasn't for the back view of Qianli wielding the Yanling Saber that had firmly occupied his heart, he might really have developed a good impression of this playful woman. , the word Hua...was wrong, it should be Zhenhua."

A trace of surprise flashed across Yang Ling's face that didn't wear makeup. This scholar has great ambitions!And courageous, more importantly, firm enough.He coughed slightly, then paused and said, "So it's Zhu Engong, this surname is the surname of the Ming Dynasty! Not bad..."

Listening to the words of entertainment on her lips, Zhu Qian's heart moved, thinking that maybe he could use his surname to make a fuss and get out of the predicament in front of him.

Countless possibilities flashed through my mind, and I said with a smile: "Miss Yang, where are you going! Where is this place? Could it be near the capital..."

Yang Ling saw that Zhu Gan was in a state of intense conversation, and he didn't know what he was thinking, so he said casually: "It's not safe anywhere for the Tartars to enter the fortress to plunder, so we have to go to the mountains to take refuge temporarily."

If it is going into the mountain to take refuge temporarily, it should be as quiet as possible, but the people around here tend to gather more and more, and this direction is not like going into the mountain.

Also, these two leaders are not like ordinary reckless characters, they were decisive enough to escape, and even the loud senior brother left her, the conflict between the two afterwards was limited to words, not even any actual actions. It seems to be a matter of habit, obviously this is a kind of preservation of strength, which is organized and disciplined.

Thinking of this, Zhu Qian's mind became more and more clear. With so many people under their control, they must be plotting something. Since they have ambition requirements, the possibility of them falling into the trap is even greater.

He sighed calmly and said: "In October of the second year of Chongzhen, Huang Taiji entered the fortress to plunder, and the world was shaken. It is time for the princes in the court to open their eyes, but the people who suffered the most were the common people. In the seventh year of Chongzhen, after In order to unify Monan Mongolia, Jin Khan and Huang Taiji went west to Chahar for the second time. It was the autumn and July of that year, and the Hou Jin army returned to the army. They took Mingbian generals to disturb their borders, kill their people, and flee people as their people. They entered on the eighth day of the seventh month. Shangfang Fort entered the siege of Xuan Mansion. Xuan Mansion guards fired artillery shells, but they retreated to Yingzhou, soldiers plundered Datong, captured Desheng Fort, and the capital shook..."

"Think about the ridiculous Hou Jin, what is the military book in their hands, "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" also has comic strips, but it beats the Ming Dynasty army all over the place, how embarrassing to say it, but when it comes to "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" I like it best It was Cao Cao who relied on the Son of Heaven to command the feudal lords, and was able to build this great cause and achieve the final unification of Wei in the Central Plains. It is a pity that such a simple truth has been understood by ambitious people since ancient times, but they cannot control their ambitions. Only Cao Cao , Sad! Ridiculous!"

Zhu Gan looked heartbroken and worried about the country and the people. When it came to emotion, he kept patting the stretcher under him.

Listening to Zhu Qian's eloquent account of Hou Jin's marching route into the Fortress, Yang Ling was really shocked. How could this man be so clear, and his surname is Zhu, could it be a relative of the emperor.

Before Zhu Qian fell into a coma, Yang Ling checked Zhu Qian's things roughly. The outer straight gown was pretty good, but there were a few patches on the underwear. Those patches were obviously made by skilled and careful people, and everything was natural. Judging from his attire, he is indeed a poor scholar.

Now that I heard that his surname is Zhu, and he has such knowledge, it seems that his identity is not simple, but his sentence of coercing the emperor to command the princes made her heart suddenly clear. If he is really a relative of the emperor, as long as Bai Lian The teacher supports him to rebel, and when the time comes, the world will follow and invade Beijing. This is not the second time that Feng Tianjing is difficult.

It's a pity that most of the key members of the White Lotus Sect have already gone to Shanxi, Shaanxi.Thinking of this in my mind, I couldn't help but sigh with regret, and glanced at Zhu Gan who was on the stretcher who was concerned about the country and the people, his eyes flickered.

He began to think about gains and losses in his heart, as long as he confirmed his identity, he would agitate among the rioters and make trouble around the capital, and Da Ming had to deal with Hou Jin and the peasant army. , the White Lotus Sect once again became famous.

Yang Ling clenched her silver teeth secretly, the look in her eyes became more and more frenzied, suddenly grabbed Zhu Qian's straight coat, tore it off forcefully, and said with concern: "Grandpa, your clothes are full of blood, I'll take it for you, wash it, and mend it by the way..."

Seeing the beautiful figure of Yang Ling leaving, Zhu Qian's eyes were filled with coldness, and he suddenly smiled, giving people the feeling of bathing in the sun: "This time, there will be a beauty to serve you, and it will be very comfortable..."

"Ah! My ass, this damn stretcher..."
