Tie Kui Extra Story (60)

Yan Wushuang surrendered, and Bincheng and Tongcheng were successfully taken over by the Ming army.

After the matter in Liaodong was settled, Yun Qing brought Qi Hao back to Beijing. Ning Hai followed Feng Dajun to Tongcheng, accompanied by Princess Yunlan.

When he arrived in Tongcheng, Ning Hai knew that Qiu Dashan had been demoted from general to deputy general. And Feng Dajun is the main general, and he is also one of the deputy generals.

On the third day after arriving in Tongcheng, Ashao said to Ninghai: "Uncle, General Qiu said that I will invite you to drink tonight." Now that Qiu Dashan has surrendered to the imperial court, he is not afraid that this will be a Hongmen banquet. Unless Qiu Dajun wanted to die himself, he also didn't want his wife and children to live.

Ning Hai nodded and said, "Okay."

In the evening, Qiu Dashan prepared a table of appetizers. The wine is naturally the strongest knife wine. Drinking it in other places, I always feel that it doesn't taste like this. Only in Tongcheng can drinking it be exciting.

After drinking a glass of wine, Qiu Dashan asked, "When did you know your own life experience?"

Ning Hai has always been very grateful to Qiu Dashan. Without Qiu Dashan, he had already been killed by Yan Wushuang: "I was already seven years old when the accident happened to my family. I just encountered bandits when I was in exile, and I was the only one in my family who escaped by chance." This means that he has not lost his memory. . Therefore, there is no such thing as forgetting one's life experience.

"Since I always remember my life experience, why have I kept it secret?"

Ning Hai was silent for a while and said: "I have been hunting with my adoptive father since I was ten years old. Whenever I am negligent during hunting, I will die. The death of my family is caused by the brothers of the Song family. Before the Song family is destroyed, I will not die. Dare to tell others about your life experience."

"Then why didn't you say anything after entering Beijing?"

Ning Hai asked back: "Do you think Yan Wushuang knows that I am Yuxi's uncle, and I am still alive?"

When Qiu Dashan heard this, he fell silent. Yan Wushuang has always been suspicious of Ning Hai, not only did not entrust him with important tasks, but instead suppressed him all the time. Of course, it turned out that Yan Wushuang's intuition was right.

Ning Hai drank a glass of wine with his head up, put down the glass and said: "Actually, I didn't think about meeting Yuxi at first. It was just an accident to let Han Jianming go. But because of this accident, Yan Wushuang threw my head Step on the ground. General, do you know? At that time, I felt that I was not as good as a dog." When he said this, his voice was very low.

This matter has always been a thorn in Ning Hai's heart. Fortunately, the thorn has now been pulled out.

Qiu Dashan knew very well that Yan Wushuang had always been harsh on Ning Hai: "Even if Han Yuxi wasn't your niece, you would still betray Third Young Master." This is not a question, but an affirmation.

Ning Hai didn't deny it: "The emperor has a big heart, and Yuxi has great insight. Whether or not, this world belongs to them."

Qiu Dashan didn't continue this heavy topic, and explained the purpose of inviting Ning Hai to drink this time: "Kuizi, I invite you here this time to ask you for one thing."

"Tell me. As long as I can do it, I will definitely not refuse." He knew Qiu Dashan's temperament, and he would never do anything embarrassing for him.

Qiu Dashan said: "At my age, I will die when I die. But Baoguo and Weiguo are still young, I don't want them to be implicated by me."

Putting down the wine glass in his hand, Ning Hai smiled and said: "You worry too much about this. If the emperor and the queen can't trust you, they won't let you be the deputy general. In a stalemate, as long as you can protect Tongcheng as before, the emperor and the queen will The queen will not treat you badly."

"Really?" The main reason is that after hearing too much negative news about Yuxi, he was also very worried that Yuxi would attack their family.

Ning Hai said: "I guarantee it with the head of the project." Rumor has it that Yuxi is narrow-minded and can't tolerate people, even the meritorious ministers who follow Yunqing. But the fact is just the opposite. Yuxi not only has a broad heart like the sea.

With these words, Qiu Dashan felt at ease.

In the beginning of spring, Feng Dajun's old injury relapsed. After Yunqing knew about it, he issued an imperial edict and summoned him back to Beijing to recuperate. And Ning Hai was appointed as the guard of Tongcheng. The place he vacated was filled by Lu Fei.

The higher you stand, the greater the responsibility. As the general defending Tongcheng, Ning Hai not only wanted to improve the living conditions of the soldiers, but also wanted to replace their weapons and equipment with new ones.

Qiu Dashan naturally knew about this, and said with a smile: "You either want money and food or weapons and equipment, and you are not afraid that the emperor will bother you." In fact, he used to do this often.

Crying children have milk to drink! Keep going up, and the top will never ignore it. More or less, will give some.

Ning Hai said: "It's annoying, I have to say it too. By the way, why do you have time to come over to me today?" If there is nothing wrong, Qiu Dashan will not come to him.

He has always been grateful to Qiu Dashan. As long as what Qiu Dashan said was within the scope of harmony, he would definitely not refuse.

Qiu Dashan said: "I have nothing to do these few days, I want to have a drink with you." They are not bad at drinking, so a drink or two will be fine.

Ning Hai smiled and said, "Okay."

When drinking, talk about everything. Naturally, they also talked about their children. Qiu Dashan said: "Daughter, it's better not to marry too far away. Otherwise, it's not easy to see each other." His youngest daughter, I'm afraid I will never see her again in this life.

Although he doesn't regret marrying his daughter to Yan Hengli, he feels very guilty when he sees Mrs. Qiu crying for her daughter. And as he got older, he missed his family more and more.

Ning Hai smiled and said, "Both my daughters must have married in the capital." Even if they are released in the future, they will always come back from the capital. And he, after a few years, can't move anymore when he gets old, and he has to go back to the capital to take care of himself. At that time, he will be able to enjoy the fun of having grandchildren.

While drinking, the two chattered about family affairs. After talking for a long time, Qiu Dashan changed the subject and said, "Kuizi, the third young master will regret Tongcheng in a short time. I hope you don't hate the past and let him stay in Tongcheng." If Ning Hai wanted to kill him because of the past, Even if Yan Wushuang is killed, he can't protect Yan Wushuang.

Ning Hai was startled, and asked in a deep voice: "Does the Emperor and the Empress know about this?" I really didn't expect that Yan Wushuang dared to come back after leaving.

"It's with their approval." He actually guessed that Yan Wushuang might return to the Central Plains, but he didn't expect it to happen in such a way.

Ning Hai sighed and said: "Since the emperor and empress agree, as long as he does not cause trouble, I will not find fault." The empress can put aside the previous grievances and let Yan Wushuang come to Tongcheng. There must be an agreement between the two. And he, of course, would not fight against Yu Xi.

With these words, Qiu Dashan was relieved.

Half a month later, Ning Hai received a letter from Tie Honglin. After reading the letter, Ning Hai frowned.

A Shao asked: "General, what's the matter? Did the third master fail the exam?" Not long ago, Tie Honglin was off for the scientific examination, and the results should come out after such a long time.

"I passed the exam."

Ah Shao didn't understand, should it be a happy thing for the third master to pass the exam? Why does his general seem a little worried!

Ning Hai said: "It's just a children's exam, and he has passed more than 30 exams. The rural exam, I'm afraid it will be very difficult."

If you pass the Jinshi exam, you can go further in the future. But if it is difficult to raise a person, don't even think about being a Jinshi.

Ah Shao felt that the scholar was already very powerful. It's just that he thought about it in his heart and didn't dare to say it.

People from the Tie family have the same idea as Ashao. After knowing that Tie Honglin passed the examination as a scholar, Chunni and his wife were overjoyed. For this reason, I also want to set up a few tables to celebrate. In the end, it was Tie Honglin himself who stopped him.

"Father, Aunt, wait until I pass the Juren exam and then I won't drink." Scholars are not uncommon in their county, and there will be a batch of them every year. But for everyone, their county may not produce one in three years. Tie Honglin thought that if he passed the Juren examination, he would be regarded as a glorious ancestor and qualified to serve wine.

Chunni smiled from ear to ear: "Okay, after you pass the Juren exam, we can have a drink." After passing the Juren exam, Hong Lin will be the master of Juren, and she is also the mother of the master. Thinking about it, Chunni felt very beautiful.

In the afternoon, Tiehu and Hongbo came back with their children.

This time, Hong Bo repeated the old saying: "Mother, you and my father go to the county seat! As long as you two stay in the country, Hong Lin and I are not at ease." He said this many times, but Chun Ni and Duan Dongzi couldn't let go of the family affairs.

Chunni hesitated and said, "I left with your father, what about the house and fields at home? Who will take care of it?"

Honglin said: "Mother, just let others take care of the house. As for the land, let others grow it. Father, mother, you can live in the county with your eldest brother! In this way, I can study in Shengjing with peace of mind." .”

Ever since Tiehu took the children to the county town, the house was deserted. Accustomed to the hustle and bustle, Chunni's heart is empty now, and she is also thinking about whether to go to the county these days.

Tie Hu looked at her like this, and immediately made a decision: "You arrange everything at home, and go to the county with us in a few days."

Chunni looked at Duan Dongzi, and asked, "The child's father, what do you think?"

Seeing this, Duan Dongzi hurriedly said, "Father, what can we do in the county? We don't know how to do anything other than farming." He is only in his forties, and he doesn't want to retire now. The son is promising enough to support them, but he doesn't want to be an idler.

Hongbo laughed and said, "It's easy. Let's buy two or three acres of land outside the county seat. Then, father and mother, you will have nothing to worry about." He has no objection to Chunni and Duan Dongzi farming, but they are too far apart. If the two of them have a headache, they can't take care of them.

Fields outside the county seat are always in high demand. It is not easy to buy a hundred and eighty acres of land, but it is not difficult for Hong Bo, who is the master, to buy two or three acres of land.

Seeing that Duan Dongzi was shaken, Hong Bo said, "I'll go to the county seat to handle this matter."

I was also afraid of going to the county town to do nothing, and I would be too idle by then. Now that there are fields to grow, it is good to go to the county town to live with the children.

Duan Dongzi glanced at Chuni, and saw her nodding: "Okay, then we will go to the county with you."

Seeing that both of them agreed to go to the county seat, Tie Hu was also very happy: "After dinner, go and ask Xia Ershui if you want to grow two acres of land. If they don't want it, you can rent it to others." Those gentry and big landowners All the fields were confiscated by the court and distributed to the poor. But like the Tie family, there are only 20 mu of fertile land and a few mu of land, but they haven't confiscated it.

Chunni smiled and said, "Okay."

It is not easy to raise chickens in the county, so Chunni immediately caught a chicken and killed it. As a daughter-in-law, Mrs. Fu naturally helped in the kitchen.

Fu and Chunni get along very well, and she hopes that Chunni can go to the county, so that her husband doesn't have to worry about it.
