In the late Ming Dynasty, a member of the Donglin Party, surnamed Zhou, was from Linqing. He was killed in prison by the eunuchs.
As soon as a few conditions came out, Zuo Mengeng immediately knew Zhou You's identity.
The son of former imperial servant Shaoqing Zhou Chaorui, he is one of the famous top six gentlemen.
There is still an impression of Zhou Chaorui and Zuo Mengeng in his memory.
I remember that year, a large number of factory guards rushed into the Zhou family and took away all the Zhou family members. The Zhou family was sealed off, and there is still a seal on the door.
Then news came that Zhou Chaorui's wife and daughter did not want to be humiliated and chose to commit suicide.
This matter caused a stir in Linqing, and everyone knew about it.
But I didn't expect that Zhou Chaorui still had descendants alive in the world, and it was Zuo Liangyu who saved him.
If you think about it carefully, the year when Zhou Chaorui's home was confiscated happened to be the time when Zuo Liangyu came back to visit his relatives.
Soon after he returned to Liaodong, he was promoted to the position of Dusi.
In the past, Zuo Mengeng could not understand this point, but now it seems that the joint is Zhou You.
Another person's voice confirmed Zuo Mengeng's guess.
"If you want to return home, please be patient and don't be impatient. This eunuch will surely be brought to justice one day, and Zhou Shaoqing's injustice will be vindicated."
After listening to Hou Xun's words, Zhou You actually became quiet.
Why Hou Xun looked at Zuo Liangyu with special eyes and promoted him so much was probably because of this incident.
When Zhou Chaorui was unjustly imprisoned and the Zhou family was about to be destroyed, the other Donglin Party members watched helplessly but could do nothing.
It was probably Hou Xun who came forward to find Zuo Liangyu, who was returning home to visit relatives, and asked him to take Zhou You to Liaodong and hide him.
Liaodong was the site of the Fourth War and was full of crises. No matter how powerful the eunuchs were, they would not be able to join the Liaodong army to do evil.
If it were an ordinary person harboring an imperial prisoner, his courage would be shattered.
But Zuo Liangyu is different.
Not only is he extremely bold, he also has a strong gambling mentality.
He knew that Hou Xun was a great official. If Hou Xun accepted the favor this time, he would be indispensable for future glory and wealth.
So Zuo Liangyu agreed and quietly took Zhou Chaorui's youngest son Zhou You away from Linqing and hid him in the Liaodong Army.
This kindness was so great that Hou Xun could not have expressed it.
Zuo Liangyu's rapid promotion was not because Sun Chengzong took a fancy to him, but because Hou Xun played a role in it.
This can also explain why Hou Xun was so affable and never arrogant when facing Zuo Liangyu.
Civil servants in the Ming Dynasty treated generals like servants and lackeys, and they were beaten and scolded lightly.
But Hou Xun was very affectionate towards Zuo Liangyu, and the root of this lies here.
Zuo Menggeng was quite excited that a period of historical fog had been lifted.
Over there, Feng Lun was not timid in the face of public anger, but he was quite a character.
"The Emperor first ascended the throne and had no relatives, so he deceived you treacherous ministers and traitors for a while. After some time, the Emperor will be able to see clearly the faces of you people with ulterior motives. At that time, the Emperor will be able to
You will understand that only we rootless slaves can think of the emperor wholeheartedly. Hou Ruogu, let's wait and see, who will lose and who will win, we are not sure yet."
He suddenly chuckled with a cold expression.
"Maybe... you won't be able to see that day."
Hou Xun refused to give in, and his words were deafening and loud.
"The great light of the righteous path will last forever. You, the servile and charming people who please the master and seek glory, have ruined the country, the country, the country, and harmed the people, causing China to be in a state of chaos. I am here to prevent you from resurrecting."
Feng Lun laughed again, this time he laughed very hard, but no laughter came out.
After a long while, he finally calmed down a little.
"Why are we disabled people favored? Just because we are loyal. We only have the emperor in our hearts, and we only know how to do things for the emperor. The emperor will always be the emperor. Sooner or later, the emperor will understand who is worthy of trust and who is the best.
Wild wolves."
After that, he waved his hand, and the mighty team set off again, brushing against the crowd and going far away.
In the cold wind, Feng Lun's nondescript singing voice drifted faintly.
"When I woke up, I put on my dragon robe and sat in front of the palace. He said: Who is the loyal minister and who is the thief? When I think about it carefully, all I can see are jackals, tigers and leopards with painted faces..."
There was silence on the pier, and everyone was watching Feng Lun's whereabouts. For a moment, everyone had twists and turns in their thoughts, and they all had different feelings.
Hou Xun snorted coldly, his eyes full of anger, and shouted: "Let's go."
The banquet arranged by the Zhang family was sumptuous, grand and extremely luxurious.
There are many talented people gathered together, and with the specially invited popular waiters, it is really lively.
The adults are happy in one place, while the juniors are embarrassed in another place.
They faced each other, wanting to fight each other with fists and feet.
Zhang Haogu crossed his legs, chewed the chicken legs until they flew up, and deliberately made people angry.
"Guys, let's eat. It's rare to eat such delicacies, isn't it? You're welcome. After passing this village, there won't be a shop like this."
Liu Yiyuan and others on the opposite side looked at each other angrily. If it weren't for the Zhang family and so many adults present, they would probably take action.
There were two children beside him, sitting neatly and watching the situation a little nervously.
One came with Hou Xun, and the other was Zhang Zhenxiu's son Zhang Lingxi.
Zhang Lingxi is eight or nine years old, but he is very smart and different from the scoundrel Zhang Haogu.
He stood up and apologized to Liu Yiyuan and others.
"Brother from the Liu family, brother from the Geng family, brother from the Wang family, my cousin's words are rude, please don't take it to heart, I will apologize on my behalf."
No matter how angry Liu Yiyuan, Geng Zhangguang and others are, they can't get into trouble with a child.
"Brother Xixian, please don't worry, we will be fine."
Zhang's old-fashioned nose was crooked.
"Zhang Lingxi, who are you with?"
Zhang Lingxi's shaking of his head has its own reason.
"It's great to have friends from far away. The Zhang family is full of guests today, so my little brother is naturally overjoyed."
In the face of Zhang Haogu's old and red face, a group of people burst into laughter, and even Zuo Mengeng couldn't help but laugh.
I didn’t expect Zhang Zhenxiu’s son to be so interesting.
Thinking of this child who defended the city with his father Zhang Zhenxiu, Liu Yuanqing and others during the fifteenth year of Chongzhen's reign, and eventually died heroically for his country, Zuo Mengeng couldn't help but look at him a few more times.
Zhang Lingxi happened to look over.
"Brother Zuo, I heard that you went to Liaodong to join the army. I wonder if you ever fought against the Donglu?"
The situation in Liaodong concerned people all over the world. When they heard his question, everyone couldn't help but pricked up their ears.
Zuo Mengeng shook his head.
"I am still young and my father is not allowed to go to the battlefield."
Liu Yiyuan was amused and said sarcastically: "People say that Zuo Er is unparalleled in fists and feet, and has extraordinary martial arts skills. Why do you become a coward on the battlefield?"
If it were the past, Zuo Mengeng would definitely be furious and would have to make a big fuss.
This is also Liu Yiyuan's purpose.
There are a lot of big guys here today, and if Zuo Mengeng gets into trouble regardless of the occasion, the consequences will definitely be disastrous.
Unexpectedly, Zuo Mengeng's expression remained unchanged, as if he was not the one being mocked.
"The fists and kicks we usually practice are different from the fighting on the battlefield. In the military confrontation, there is no room for the use of moves. It is just simple and selfless slashing. Who is more powerful, who strikes faster, and who
Whoever can chop more accurately will survive."
Everyone present here is a bunch of young people. Although they are very curious about the military affairs, they have no idea about the real situation on the battlefield.
Hearing what he said, everyone couldn't help but be quite surprised.
Liu Yiyuan also paused, and then became very upset.
Why were you fooled?
"Stop bragging. I have obtained the true biography of a famous master. How can I not know how to fight? You are just a coward. What excuse can you make?"
This is something you have to bear on yourself.
Zuo Mengeng looked at Liu Yiyuan and recalled this person's information.
Historically, this person was admitted to the martial arts examination shortly afterwards, indicating that he was a talented person.
Especially since he was from the Liu family, he was said to be versatile in both civil and military affairs, and that was absolutely true.
If you take this person under your command...
"I was in Liaodong. Although I couldn't go to the battlefield. But on the way back, I actually fought several battles with the rebels in the land of Jifu. If Brother Liu doesn't believe it, let's compare notes?"
Upon hearing this, Liu Yiyuan became excited.
"OK."
He was actually not satisfied yet.
"Second from the left, we didn't decide the winner last time. Now we're fighting, what should I say?"
Zuo Mengeng looked at this competitive young man amusedly and asked, "Brother Liu, what do you have in mind?"
Liu Yiyuan looked over provocatively.
"If you lose, you must call me second brother when you see me from now on. Wherever I am, I sit and you can only stand. I drink tea and you pour water. Do you dare to agree?"
A native of Shandong never calls him eldest brother, but second brother.
Who made Wu Erlang famous?
If you call someone Dalang, what do you mean?
Hearing Liu Yiyuan's condition of leaving almost no escape route, Zuo Mengeng just wanted to laugh.
"Sure. But if you lose, from now on, you will be my little brother. You will do whatever I ask you to do."
Liu Yiyuan's face flashed with green energy, he stood up and said angrily: "That depends on whether you have the ability."
Zuo Mengeng stood up and walked out from behind the dining table to the open space in the middle.
"You have to try it before you know whether you have the ability or not."
