Chapter 608 The encounter with the third-rank official man!
These Qing soldiers seemed to have noticed the man's abnormal expression, and immediately signaled them to stop.
When the man saw the Qing soldiers, he immediately turned around and prepared to run away. Dozens of Qing soldiers did not let the man escape and quickly captured him. After capturing him, the Qing soldiers discovered that this man was from the late Ming Dynasty.
For a third-rank official, because a large number of Qing soldiers had entered the pass, most of the descendants of the Ming Dynasty had fled, not to mention this third-rank official. Naturally, he took his family, wives, young and old, and started a life of escape.
Nike didn't run long before he was caught by the Qing soldiers.
These Qing soldiers did not mistreat them, they just arrested them first, and then asked the local Qing soldiers who had just occupied Linzhou what to do.
Originally, when faced with the officials and nobles left over from the Ming Dynasty, the Qing Dynasty had two ways, one was to Zhao'an, and the other was to kill them directly. As for the latter, they were usually people who wanted to restore the Ming Dynasty. For the former, as long as they did a good job
Anyone who served the Qing Dynasty could survive.
This man who is a third-rank official actually has the intention of restoring his Ming Dynasty. In fact, it cannot be said that he is restored to the Ming Dynasty. His heart is still in the Ming Dynasty. After all, it was the Ming Dynasty that allowed him to pass the imperial examination step by step to become a third-rank official. In his heart
He had a grateful heart. But he was afraid and the Qing soldiers would use unpredictable methods against his family members. After thinking about it for a while, the man finally gave in.
According to the laws of the early Qing Dynasty, such Ming Dynasty officials and titles from Zhao'an could continue to serve as officials, but their grades would have to be lowered several levels.
Rank didn't matter to this third-grade man. After all, as long as he was alive at that time, he was already very happy.
However, just when he thought that he and his family were going to be assigned to be the magistrate of a remote county, the non-commissioned officer from Linzhou really fell in love with the wife of this third-rank man.
It has to be said that at that time, this man's wife was very beautiful, but she often stayed at home. Few people knew that this man had such a lovely wife at home. It was also because the sergeant fell in love with that man's wife, so
Naturally, I had other ideas, because at that time, this non-commissioned officer made a lot of contributions when he invaded the Ming Dynasty, and the superiors of the Qing Dynasty also appreciated him very much. It can be said that the Linzhou area is basically his territory, to say the least.
That kind of.
Also because his superiors gave him so much power, this noncommissioned officer developed a kind of ethos and character, that is, as long as he wants to get it, no one can take it away from him.
For example, if he wanted the wife of this pre-Ming Dynasty man, he would just do it.
He didn't use any conspiracy, he just told the third-rank man directly and clearly that he wanted his wife.
In ancient times, if this kind of thing happened to any man, it would be an unspeakable insult. Moreover, this man was a third-rank official in the pre-Ming Dynasty. In ancient times, a third-rank official was the most popular in the local area.
existence.
Basically, they are able to control the security and development of a region.
Now there is someone who directly wants his wife, and he says it so straightforwardly, which the man cannot accept no matter what.
It was also because of his refusal that he directly angered the Linzhou sergeant. In anger, the latter directly took the third-grade man into the big boss, including his eighty-year-old mother and infant child.
As for his wife, she was indeed forcibly taken away by Sergeant Linzhou. As for what happened, the third-rank man could naturally think of it, but he was helpless in tears.
Black hair turned white overnight, the eighty-year-old mother died, and the infant child also starved to death in a few days.
Sergeant Lin Zhou was very cruel. In the end, after burying the eighty-year-old mother and her child casually, he looked at the third-rank man and found that he had gone crazy.
After all, one can imagine the psychological pressure when his two oldest relatives passed away in front of his eyes and he was powerless.
As for his wife, she was brutally raped, and he was helpless. In fact, the third-rank man wanted to kill her head first.
About half a month later, he received an order from Sergeant Lin Zhou and a notice of exile.
But along with this order of exile, there was also news that made him heartbroken, that is, his wife committed suicide.
His hair was completely white. At that time, a third-grade official man was only forty, and his hair was indeed white. He looked like an old man who was over seventy years old. The wrinkles on his face were like thousands of hills and ravines crisscrossing each other overnight.
Sergeant Linzhou saw his bleak appearance, and then thought of his family's ruin, and he didn't know if he felt a little bit regretful. At least he did not directly kill this third-grade officer man, but exiled him to what is now Nanjing.
Cloud area.
In fact, when he was exiled to the Nanyun area, no one took care of him. After all, if he was taken care of, he would still have to take care of food and so on. In addition, the attention of the Qing soldiers was not entirely focused on this man. At that time, the Qing Dynasty
It was just established in the early stages, and all the participants wanted to get a piece of the soup, so the so-called exile was to put the man directly in Nanyun.
At this time, the third-grade official man no longer had any thoughts in his heart, not even the fluctuations in his thoughts.
During the Ming and Qing Dynasties, Nanyun was very barren and there was very little development. After he came here, he began his life as a beggar. In the end, he slowly ended up living in Lingshan and became a savage.
, but his thinking has not actually degraded to the primitive zone. He still understands everything mentally, and it is also because he still has the normal thinking of some people. He uses his own manual ability to reach the place where Ning Xiaofan and the others are now.
A small house was built.
I don’t know what kind of knowledge or ability this man had at that time to be able to build such a house. At least judging from the preservation results over the years, it has not been attacked by any evil beasts.
This is really a rare thing.
Seeing the scenes that appeared in front of him, Ning Xiaofan couldn't help but feel shocked. He was able to survive such a catastrophic situation. If he had a different mentality and was not so strong, he would have been able to survive.
He committed suicide.
What is even more valuable is that after he finished building the house, he did not stop. Instead, he used his pen to write down what he had experienced, as well as the real events of that period at the intersection of the Ming and Qing dynasties, in the form of historical records.
