Han’s Son is Not a Slave

Qin Huai, Bayan, Dong Xiaowan and Rugao, a talented man who took the initiative to explore the borders, will have a lifelong relationship. They know it from the people in Nanjing city, but they don't know how the two are going through a lot of hardships. At first, when Dong Xiaowan heard from the sisters about the character and talent of the impostor, he secretly moved the truth. In addition, Chen Yuanyuan, a famous prostitute in Nanqu, once made a lifelong agreement with Mao Pijiang, but was beaten by a stick, and Dong Xiaowan became even more infatuated with Mao Pijiang. However, because of his stubborn nature, Dong Xiaowan offended the rogues on the banks of the Qinhuai River. He had to avoid Wujiang overnight, so he missed Mao Pijiang. They didn't meet until half a year later.

Who would have thought that Mao Pijiang and Dong Xiaowan only met once in a hurry, and two days later Mao Pijiang went to Yangzhou, Wuxi and other places to meet with social friends and discuss the major event of anti-Qing and restoring Ming. This difference is three years. From winter to spring, year after year, Dong Xiaowan occupied the magpies in the morning, divination lights and flowers, and stayed out of the house, wholeheartedly looking forward to the early return of Baopijiang, so as to get rid of the dust and return to Rugao's hometown. But Dong Xiaowan looked through the autumn waters, and he was still like a mud bull into the sea, without any news.

In desperation, Dong Xiaowan quietly packed his bags and returned to Nanjing from Suzhou, where he went to Liu Rushi and Qian Qianyi and his wife. Finally, with the efforts of a group of friends in the Mao Pi Jiang Fu Club and Liu Rushi's good sister Qin Huai, Mao Pi Jiang and Dong Xiaowan finally met again. Dong Xiaowan, who was full of sorrows and joys, was already weak and could no longer bear the pain of so many lovesickness and bumps. Mao Pijiang felt ashamed and finally decided to settle down with Dong Xiaowan on Taoyedu for life.

Dong Xiaowan feels that she should be the happiest person among the Nanqu sisters. She and Mao Pijiang have a heart-to-heart relationship and are not too far apart in age. Unlike sisters such as sisters and sisters Hengdu, they married an old man in sixties, although she is a partial house. , but should also be satisfied.

Spring and autumn come, the weather is getting colder and colder, and people's hearts are getting colder and colder. When Qian Qianyi, Gong Shangshu, Gong Dingyu and other old masters who returned to the society welcomed the surrender of the Qing Dynasty, they originally wanted to be assistants on the stage, famous as the ministers, but unexpectedly, the two of them only served as servants and monks for one or two years. He was dismissed by Ding Ge and carried a bad name on his back. Gong Dingyu started an apartment in Beijing, and Qian Qianyi wanted to pass the time by drinking and entertaining himself regardless of political affairs. In his old age, he travels to Nanjing, Changzhou and other places, and has close contacts with the ambition to restore his vision.

At this time, the Qian family had changed from the affectionate sons and daughters of the year to the heroes of the restoration of the country, and the scholars, especially Liu Rushi, had basically understood the old master's compromise in the "Yixi Change" of the year. It's just that the years are not forgiving. Although the disciples have always respected Qian Qianyi "Yushan Zongbo", the reputation of the leaders of the two dynasties has left traces after all. Qian Qianyi, who was nearly eighty years old, was angry and regretful because of his anger, and this old situation became more and more embarrassing. Liu Rushi, who is not confused at the end of his life, sees his debts piled high, and has to sell his jewelry again and again and chat with the antique calligraphy and paintings he had collected before.

Qian Qianyi and Liu Rushi lived miserably in their later years, and Dong Xiaowan and Mao Pijiang also lived very hard these years. Maojia was a big family in Rugao. After getting married, Dong Xiaowan lived in the water painting garden. He really lived a fairy-like life. He studied poetry and prose with Mao Pijiang. The good-natured women are also very friendly.

However, the good times did not last long. After the fall of the Hongguang regime, the Qing troops marched southward. Nanjing, Hangzhou, Hefei, Jiangxi, Fujian, Jiangsu and Zhejiang all fell into the hands of the Tartars, all of which were owned by the Qing Dynasty. Only the nearby prefectures and counties, such as Taihu Lake, British In remote places such as Huoshan and the Yungui area, there are still people who gather to fight against the Qing Dynasty and refuse to shave their hair. The Manchu Qing Tartar soldiers searched everywhere, and when they saw the beauties in Jiangnan, they robbed or robbed them. Pity these weak women who were dressed in pink and jade carvings and brocade-clustered flowers, fell flowers by mistake, and most of them were kidnapped by the Qing army.

The frightened Dong Xiaowan and Mao Pijiang had no choice but to pack up their homes and hide everywhere. But "under the nest, An You has finished the egg"? Troops and horses were everywhere, thieves swarmed, looted wealth and loot, and murdered like hemp. In desperation, the family quietly returned to Rugao. At this time, the Maofu had already been destroyed and withered.

With a downtrodden family, Mojia lacked rice and firewood. The whole family had to eat, and life became very difficult. Thanks to Dong Xiaowan's careful planning, he could barely maintain the life of the whole family. At this juncture, Mao Pijiang fell ill, suffering from diarrhea and maltreatment, and tortured him into a human form. Malaria attacked with cold and heat, coupled with diarrhea and abdominal pain, there was hardly a moment of peace in Maopijiang. In order to take care of him, Dong Xiaowan spread a broken straw mat beside the bed as her own bed. Whenever her husband made a noise, she immediately stood up to check. When she was shivering with chills, she held her husband tightly in her arms; when she was hot and irritable, She rubbed and rubbed for him again; she rubbed him for abdominal pain; she held a basin for him to untie him when he had diarrhea, and she never looked tired. After more than five months of tossing, Mao Pijiang's condition finally improved, and Dong Xiaowan seemed to be seriously ill.

On this day, he came in from the outside in a loud voice, kicked the already swaying door with a bang, and scolded shamelessly in his mouth. Dong Xiaowan was startled and hurriedly asked what happened.

"Hong Chengchou, the dignified scripture envoy, kept saying that he would rather die than surrender, but after sleeping with the Qing Dynasty empress all night, his muscles and bones were all scattered, and he shaved his hair and declared himself a servant to become a servant of the Tartars! Not to mention, now he is wearing that The Dingdai Hualing and the yellow jacket given to him by the little emperor of Tartar, went to Yungui to kill the emperor of Daming, how shameless, extremely shameless!"

"Oh," Dong Xiaowan sighed softly and persuaded softly: "Mao Lang, everyone has their own aspirations, so Master Qian and Master Gong have also become high officials of the Northern Dynasty? At the juncture of life and death, this kind of behavior is really not as good as us. A woman. I always feel that if my sister is married to Master Qian, it's really not what I want."

"Isn't Mr. Qian regretting it? The poor old man in his 70s and 80s is still running around and screaming. It's really hard for him. Why did he need to be in the past when he is today? Sigh..." Mao Pijiang sighed and fell to the seat. On the bed, his face was thin and white hair appeared on his temples. Suddenly, he became irritated again for no reason. He pulled the braid behind his head and said bitterly, "Manchu clothes and hats, Manchu heads, full of majesty and shame. Ge is full of tears, full of loyalty and anger, and full of sorrow. This hateful braid is dragged behind his head, and it's indistinguishable, I really want to cut it with a knife!"

"Maolang, don't be emotional! It doesn't matter if you cut your braid, dozens of people in the house will suffer."

Dong Xiaowan's face turned white in shock. Her husband really wanted to cut his braids, and the catastrophe happened immediately.

"I'm afraid of this, otherwise, how can I keep this braid."

Mao Pijiang was very distressed, looking at the braid, he was so sick of it that he couldn't let go of the anger in his heart. After sitting by the bedside for a while, his mood gradually calmed down, and he knew that he was in the book business after all. Hundreds of thousands of Qing troops had entered the southwest, and the Qing court's Tang newspaper said every day where the Qing army had occupied, and how many Ming troops had been defeated. , It can be seen that this world is afraid that it is hopeless and hopeless, and I am afraid that this braid will not be cut off in this life.

Sadly, Mao Pijiang heard that Guangdong had defeated the Qing army a few days ago, and when the whole province of Guangdong recovered, he was so happy to have a drink with a few friends, and each talked about when the Ming army would recover the southeast. A few months later, the situation turned upside down. Alas, why Daming has so many disasters and disasters, and why every time there is an opportunity for ZTE, it always makes people happy in the end!

Knowing that her husband was upset, Dong Xiaowan saw that it was getting late, so she wanted to persuade her husband to rest early. After all, he was only seriously ill, and it was freezing cold outside, so he couldn't get sick again.

Mao Pijiang nodded slightly, not wanting Xiaowan to worry about him any more, when the husband and wife were making the bed, there was a knock on the door.

Who will be visiting at such a late hour?

Mao Pijiang and Dong Xiaowan were both startled, and the old servant of Mao's family went to open the door, only to hear a few words from the door, and then the old servant brought someone over.

"Master, Madam, this person said that he was an old friend of the master's return to the society, and he came to visit the master."

"Restoring an old friend? ... You lead the guests to the living room to serve tea, and I'll come later."

Hearing this, Mao Pijiang was very excited. Although Xiaowan wanted her husband to rest early, the person who came was a member of the Fushe, and her husband definitely wanted to see him. As a female family, she was inconvenient to see the guests, so she arranged her husband's clothes for a while, and then told her not to talk too late, so she went to bed first and warmed the bed for her husband.

Since returning to his hometown, Mao Pijiang has never seen an old person from the Fushe Society visit, so he was very excited at this meeting. When he went to the living room to meet, he guessed which old person from the Fushe Society would visit, but when he saw the person in the living room, he didn’t His face was very raw, and he couldn't help being stunned there. He couldn't remember which talent he was from Fushe for a while.

"Who is your Excellency?"

Mao Pijiang was sure that he had never seen someone coming, so he could not help being a little wary of them.

The person who came was a middle-aged man in his thirties. He looked quite wealthy, but he didn't look like a genius of the complex.

"I've heard the name of Mr. Mao for a long time, but when I saw him today, it really lives up to the reputation!"

"Don't dare."

While returning the salute, Mao Pijiang looked at the person again, and the confusion in his eyes was even heavier.

Seeing this, the person who came here didn't go around in circles, and said with a smile, "You don't need to guess if you pretend to be a young master. In fact, he is not a member of the Fu Club, but has another identity."

"Another identity?"

Mao Pijiang frowned slightly, not sure who the person who came here was and what happened.

The visitor put away his smile and said sternly: "I have heard for a long time that the false son and Qian Zongbo of the southern capital have a relatively shallow relationship, so I took the liberty to visit here, just so that the false son can make a connection and introduce Qian Zongbo below."

Hearing that the other party was begging him to introduce Qian Qianyi for him, Cao Pijiang's heart became even more alert~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Before thinking about it, he blurted out: "I'm not familiar with Qian Zongbo, you are looking for the wrong person."

The visitor shook his head and said, "Unfamiliar? Not necessarily. I heard that the concubine Dong Xiaowan and Qian Zongbo's wife Liu Rushi are good sisters."

"Who are you, and what do you want to see Qian Zongbo?" Mao Pijiang's face was a little ugly.

The person who came smiled and said four words softly: "People from Xiaming."

Ming people?

Mao Pijiang settled there, and vaguely felt that the identity of the person who came was very extraordinary.

"To be precise, this is Cao Dazheng, the commander of the General Military Intelligence of Guangdong Xingping. I have come here to ask the impostor, so that the impostor can talk to my uncle and Qian Zongbo."
