If a person dies, he will be buried in the soil for peace.

Liu Wenyuan used his only three taels of silver to buy a cemetery and a thin coffin outside the city, and then searched through boxes and cabinets to find his wife's wedding dress when she got married. After carefully wiping her body for her, he touched his wife's cold belly and gently put the wedding dress on her.

After the coffin shop sent the coffin, Liu Wenyuan asked them to put their wife's body into the coffin, then borrowed a car from the neighbor, and drove his wife's thin coffin to the outside of the city. With the help of his neighbor, he buried his wife in peace.

Above a new tomb, a wooden sign stands with the words "The Tomb of the Magnolia of Liu Huang's Family".

Liu Wenyuan stood in front of the grave blankly. The neighbor sighed as he looked at it, stepped forward to help burn the paper money, and dragged Liu Wenyuan into the car and back to the city.

People cannot be resurrected when they die.

Living people still have to live, even if they live in pain, they still have to live.

In the city, Zhou Shixiang talked with Qian Qianyi, who was nearly 80 years old, what was harmonious?

As early as two years ago, Zhou Shixiang asked Zhang An to send people to Jiangnan to contact the people of Restoration of Ming Dynasty. Qian Qianyi, as the leader of the people of Restoration of Ming Dynasty in Jiangnan, was the key contact target. However, although the Taiping Army rose in Guangdong at that time, it was still limited to a province in Guangdong. In addition, the distance was too far, so Qian Qianyi did not pay too much attention to Guangdong, but instead devoted his energy to contacting Jinxia.

Later, even though he knew that Guangdong had killed Prince Jian of Qing Jidu and defeated Guangxi and Hunan, his momentum was far more powerful than Sun Kewang at that time. Li Dingguo came more, and Qian Qianyi still paid less attention to the Taiping Army than to the Jinxia Zheng Army. Most of the money, grain and resources provided by the Jiangnan Fuming people who contacted him were secretly used on the Zheng Army and the Zhejiang Army.

The main reason for this is that the Taiping Army was too far away from Jiangnan, and the gentry in Jiangnan was not as strong as that in Jiangnan, while the Zheng army in Jinxia could enter the river at any time, and its strength was not weaker than that of the Taiping Army. Therefore, people in the Ming Dynasty in Jiangnan could not look far away. Another reason is that King Zheng Sen of Yanping was a student of Qian Qianyi, whose name was Damu, which was chosen by Qian Qianyi. Therefore, in terms of closeness, Qian Qianyi was more inclined to his students, rather than a scholar who had never heard of or met.

Qian Qianyi was going to Nandu, but because he heard that the Taiping Army sent troops from Zhenjiang to attack Liang Huafeng, he realized that the Taiping Army would inevitably use troops to Suzhou. Changshu was not far from Suzhou. Once Suzhou was restored, he could come immediately, so he kept waiting for the news of Suzhou's revival.

Qian Qianyi was very confident in the Taiping Army's recovery of Suzhou. He asserted to the Hedong Jun Liu Rushi that Liang Huafeng and Guan Qizhong were not in harmony and could not work together, and they would inevitably fail. Sure enough, he was expected, but Qian Qianyi thought that the Taiping Army was a bloody battle to conquer Guan Qizhong, who was waiting to die, but he did not expect that he would enter the city without losing one soldier.

Because it was snowing heavily in the world and Qian Qianyi was nearly 80 years old, so Liu Rushi, the king of Hedong, did not agree to her husband coming to Suzhou City in a snowy way. However, Qian Qianyi heard that the Duke of Guangdong was Zhou Shixiang himself, who led the army to conquer Suzhou this time, so he insisted on coming, and got angry because of this. Liu Rushi could not persuade him, so he had to ask his family to prepare a carriage and accompany him to Suzhou. There was always someone in the Qian Mansion in the Military Information Department, and immediately sent the news back and escorted it all the way.

Everyone in the Military Information Department in Jiangnan knows that the general attaches great importance to this old master and may be of great use, so how dare you let this old master get into trouble?

After Zhou Shi received a report, he personally went to the city gate to pick up Qian Qianyi, and did not neglect him because of Qian Qianyi's previous indifference to Guangdong. In his opinion, although Qian Qianyi had a bad record of surrendering to the Qing Dynasty during the Hongguang period, he had always insisted on secretly rebelling against the Qing Dynasty for more than ten years, and had been in prison for the Qing Dynasty three times, scattering all his family's wealth. After his death, his wife Liu Rushi was forced to surrender by the Qian family and committed suicide in anger. Therefore, no matter how unbearable the old man was back then, he always paid for it for the rest of his life. This is much better and much better than the group of Donglin disciples who studied "History of Ming Dynasty" for the Qing Dynasty in Beijing than the Han officials who suppressed the Ming army in various provinces.

No one is perfect, no gold is red gold.

In the past seventeen years of the struggle between the Ming and Qing dynasties, there were too many people who first surrendered to the Qing Dynasty like Qian Qianyi, and then repented and wrote the chapter on the Ming Dynasty with their lives.

Zhou Shixiang believes that Qian Qianyi deserves respect. At least he was not the one who led the Nanjing gate at the beginning, and he was better than Li Chengdong, Jin Shengheng, Wang Deren, Jiang Xiang and others. He did not have his hands covered with blood from the Han people.

"Old Zong Bo!"

After seeing Qian Qianyi, Zhou Shi was obsessed with the late-born disciple Li, and did not show off his aura of a great commander. In addition to him, all the senior generals in Suzhou came to greet him. Jiang Guozhu, the new governor of Jiangsu, also brought a surrendered prefect Yan Shaoqing to take charge of the ceremony.

Qian Qianyi was a little nervous, afraid that Zhou Shi would look down on him because of his poor deeds in the Qing Dynasty during the Hongguang period, but he was very excited to see the young Duke and his subordinates treat him so dignified. When Liu Rushi helped him get out of the car, he could feel his husband's hands trembling.

Qian Qianyi excitedly helped Zhou Shixiang up. After his mood calmed down, he introduced Liu Rushi to Zhou Shixiang.

Zhou Shixiang looked at Liu Rushi, one of the rumored "Eight Beauties of Qinhuai", and sighed very much. The years have passed, and now he sees not a courtesan or a Bayan, but a woman whose temples are already white, and a female hero who always follows her husband and insists on restoring the Ming Dynasty!

"Hedong Jun!"

Zhou Shixiang called Liu Rushi with respect. He did not call him "Madam Qian" because Jiang Guozhu told him in advance that Liu Rushi was a hero and had a male style, so he never liked others to call her "Madam Qian" and liked outsiders to call her "Hodong Jun".

When she heard the sound of "Hedong Jun", Liu Rushi was stunned for a moment, and then she was a little happy. She looked at the young Duke who was not yet in her thirty years.

Zhou Shixiang introduced a cadre to Qian Qianyi, and all the generals came forward to salute. When Jiang Guozhu and Yan Shaoqing also came to salute, Qian Qianyi was stunned, but then he realized that the two must have surrendered the Duke of Guangdong.

At this time, the wind was strong, how could Qian Qianyi stay at the city gate for a long time? Zhou Shi invited Qian Qianyi and his wife to get on the car and personally rode their horses to lead the way. This action made Qian Qianyi firmly believe that he had not made any mistakes.
