Back to the Ming Dynasty to be a tyrant

Only then did Liu Xingzuo get up, and after helping Liu's mother to sit down, he bowed to Liu's mother and said: "Mother, don't worry, the son will save a lot of it, and he will never confide a word to anyone."

Liu Xingzuo talked with his old mother for a while, thinking about how to serve the emperor after returning to Daming, and how he would immediately become a Marquis—Liu Xingzuo was quite confident about his own abilities.Worried that his wife would notice something strange, he stayed for a while, and then returned to his room to rest after the tears on his face disappeared.

Only the next day, Liu Xingzuo took his wife to greet the old mother as usual, but no one answered after shouting a few times. When Liu Xingzuo pushed the door of the old mother's room, he immediately collapsed to the ground, and all three souls and seven souls flew out of the sky... …

Chapter 13 Giving up one's life for righteousness, destroying one's family for one's country

When Liu Xingzuo felt something bad in his heart, he pushed open the door of the old mother's room, only to see a wisp of a ghost hanging on the rope beam of the old mother, who had already returned to his homeland in the south.

The wife who came together with Liu Xingzuo to greet her mother-in-law only yelled "Mother" at that time, and then passed out.

Liu Xingzuo always thought that he had been in the army for a long time and was used to seeing life and death, his heart was already as hard as a stone, and he just felt that there was nothing in the world that could move him.But he didn't want to see the scene in front of him, he was startled, hurried over, untied the old mother from the rope, saw a letter on the table, but didn't read it, put it directly into his arms, and carried the old mother to the bed placement.

After thinking about it, Liu Xingzuo couldn't help blaming himself secretly. He only said that he forced his old mother to follow him back to the south last night, and the old mother didn't want to tire him out, so she threw himself into the rope.

However, Liu Xingzuo is not an ordinary person after all. Over the years, he has hidden his thoughts of planning to return to the south all the time, and the experience of dealing with the Tartars between life and death made him calm down immediately.

Liu Xingzuo settled his mother's body and held his wife in his arms. Then he took out the letters and read them, but it was the last letter left by Liu's mother:

"My son Xing Zuo:

Don't be sad when you see a letter.Mother left first.

Since you were a child, mother has never lied to you, but this time, mother is going to break her promise.

Mother knows that my son is a filial son, so she will definitely find a way to bring mother back to Daming.

However, there are a large number of people returning to the south this time, and the matter is of great importance.Now that the Tartars are powerful and most of them are cavalry, if there is an emergency, everyone may not be able to escape safely.If it's just our mother and son, that's all. However, all the people returning from the south trust my son, so my son needs to think carefully, and can't put everyone in danger because of my mother, otherwise it will be unjust.This one also.

Second, to break the family and build the country, the courtiers have their duties.This time as a mother, I will take a step first to meet your father, so that he can know that my son is now returning to his home country in the south to serve the Son of Heaven, and your father must be happy too.If there is a mother, if the matter is urgent, if my son surrenders to become a slave again, he will be disloyal, if he does not surrender, he will be unfilial, and this will definitely put my son in a dilemma.

For my mother's body, my son can be cremated, and I will just take my mother's ashes back to my home country for burial, and bury her in the land of my home country. My mother is already satisfied.It's a pity that I can't see the day when my son was named Marquis.

From then on, my son must be loyal to the king, otherwise, I will hate my mother forever in the ground. "

After reading it with tears in his eyes, Liu Xingzuo was already in tears.He knew that he put too much pressure on his old lady last night.In other words, it means that I forced my mother to death, and I am truly unfilial!

At this point, Liu Xingzuo made a quick decision.Put the old lady’s last suicide note in her arms again and put it away, then sorted out the old lady’s remains first, so that it didn’t look like she was hanged, but like a natural death in a dream, and then woke up the wife, without waiting for the wife to speak, He immediately covered her mouth, and told her: "You must not talk about this matter! To the outside world, it is only said that the old lady is too homesick, and she has already gone last night. Otherwise, my Liu family will be in danger for life!"

After all, Liu Xingzuo's wife had seen some storms, so she nodded immediately to show that she understood.Seeing this, Liu Xingzuo let go of his hand, took off the rope, cut it, and threw it under the bed. Seeing that there was nothing wrong with the room, he burst into grief and cried bitterly: "Mother! What are you doing?" Just leave your son behind and go by yourself!"

Seeing this, Mrs. Liu also burst into tears. The previous shock and the grief that she had just suppressed just now burst out at this moment, and only turned into a cry: "Mother!"

At this time, the sky had already dawned, and the servant girls in the mansion heard that there was movement in the inner courtyard, so they rushed over with Liu Xingxian, the housekeeper and others who had heard the news.After entering the old lady's room, she found that the old lady was lying on the bed, her body was already stiff, and her master Liu Xingzuo was kneeling in front of the bed and crying like a tearful person, only then did she know that it was the old lady who passed away. up.

Seeing this, Liu Xingxian ran to Liu Xingzuo, knelt down on the ground and cried, "Mother!", and then broke down in sobs.

Regardless of whether their hearts were true or false, the other people knelt down on the ground and burst into tears.A few servant girls even cried tears when they thought of the benefits of the old lady treating her like a friend.

In the end, the housekeeper stood up first, came to Liu Xingzuo, glanced at the old lady's body, and said with Liu Xingzuo: "My lord, the old lady has gone, and you are sorry. The funeral of the old lady still needs to be brought out by you." There is a charter."

With tears streaming down his face, Liu Xingzuo said in a sobbing voice: "Master is in such a mess right now, I don't know what to do. The most urgent thing is to let my wife and younger siblings sort out the remains of the old lady first. I will talk about other things later."

The housekeeper hurriedly bowed to answer, but said again: "Master, it is right to sort out the old lady's remains first, but it seems a little inappropriate to let the wife and the wife of the second master do this kind of thing? Are you condemning?" How many wives are here?"

Liu Xingzuo was furious when he heard the words, and slapped the butler with his backhand, and said angrily: "Old dog! The two of them were the ones that the old lady loved the most in her lifetime. What's wrong with letting them sort out the remains of the old lady? No matter how loud you are, There will be no mercy!"

Seeing this, Mrs. Liu hurriedly stepped forward to hold Liu Xingzuo, and said to Liu Xingzuo, "Husband, please calm down. This matter will be handled by my concubine and my younger siblings." After saying this, she turned her head and said to Liu Xingxian's wife who just got up: "Sisters and sisters, This matter will be handled by you and me, Mo Liao offended your elder brother."

Then he said to the steward and other maids and servants: "There is no need to wait for this matter, let's go and do other things."

After Liu Xingzuo and Liu Xingxian went out together, seeing that there was no one else in the room, Liu Xingzuo's wife said: "Sister and sister, don't blame sister-in-law. It's just that this matter is very important, and my husband didn't explain it to me clearly. If we are not careful, our whole family is in danger of life."

Liu Xingxian's wife is also a virtuous person, and she kept quiet when she heard the words, but looked at her sister-in-law questioningly, and pointed to the southeast direction with her finger.

Liu Xingzuo's wife shook her head first, then nodded and said, "I don't know either. But I think it should be. I just don't know why this happened."

The two of them already had concerns in their hearts, but they stopped talking, just patiently tidied up the remains of the mother-in-law, and called the maid to fetch the shroud that had been prepared long ago, and put it on for Liu's mother.In the meantime, be more careful.

There are two types of people who hanged themselves.One is that the cervical spine is torn off and died. This kind of appearance is generally normal, and the creases on the neck are shallow; One is that the creases are extremely deep, the tongue sticks out of the mouth extremely long, and the eyeballs are protruding, which is extremely terrifying.

The two were extra careful, and put on the shroud for Mother Liu, and arranged it carefully so that if the shroud was taken off, no creases could be seen.

After everything was finished, the two called the Liu brothers to come in.

Chapter 14 The Slavery of Government

After Liu's mother hanged the beam, the Liu family was in a mess, busy preparing for the funeral, not to mention for now, but Liu Xingzuo was giving Huang Taiji a note:

"The minister Liu Aita risked his life to hear:

The minister was in tears and didn't know what to say, and Wanwang sweated to forgive him.

The minister is a commoner, Meng Laohan is simple and humble, and he should not entrust the burden of the Southern Four Guards because of his despicableness. He should have followed the example of Zhuge Wuhou, devoted himself to the end, and died.However, the mother of the minister passed away because of homesickness, and left her words in the minister, wanting to have her ashes buried in her homeland.

I am ignorant, I don't know the great strategy of the Great Khan's attack on Ming, but I am very eager to bury my mother, so I risked my life to ask the Great Khan to allow the minister to perform troops in Fuzhou. The day sacrifices the flag to cut Ming.

Minister Liu Aita risked his life to pay homage to hear about it, and it was a capital crime. "

Shenyang, the Imperial Palace of the Qing Dynasty, has used this place as a base camp since it was built as a slave and lived in Liaodong. Under the instigation of some coated slaves who always called themselves students, they established their own imperial palace in imitation of the Forbidden City of Ming Dynasty.It's just that no matter in terms of scale or layout, it reveals a small family spirit everywhere.Even so, I don't know how many blood and tears of the Liaodong Han people were buried in it!

In the so-called Hall of Qinzheng, when Huang Taiji received the report from Liu Xingzuo, another secret report was also placed on Huang Taiji's desk.

Huang Taiji read Liu Xingzuo's notes first, but he didn't comment. After throwing it aside, he picked up the secret report and read it: "Liu Aita went to the brothel with his friends on the 22th and never returned. There are spies to prove that He slept in a brothel. Liu's mother died on the [-]th. There was no injury or disease. The corpses were Liu Aita's wife and Liu Xingxian's wife. The funeral was scheduled for the [-]nd. Liu Aita summoned four guards to Fuzhou to perform soldiers. I want to cut down and bury my mother first."

Huang Taiji compared Liu Xingzuo's memorial with the secret report from the spy. Although he still felt that something was wrong, he was suffering from no other evidence to support it, so he said to Bao Yi Aha who was standing by: "Send someone to Go and call Mr. Fan, Daishan, Amin, Yuetuo, Jierhalang, Azige, and Dorgon over here. Let Mangurtai rest at home and let someone go and let you know."

The coated Aha next to him responded "cha!", and ordered someone to pass on the name of Huang Taiji to come and meet Da Khan.

The other people who received the news did not dare to slack off, and rushed to the palace to meet Huang Taiji, only Dai Shan and A Min came slowly.

After all, Daishan is the eldest son of the old Jiannu Nurhachi, and Huang Taiji is the fourth son. Although they won the Khan position, Daishan and Amin are still not very docile.It's just that Daishan is good at forbearance, and always shows others with a good-natured appearance, and he even deceived the treacherous Huang Taiji.As for Amin, he has never been convinced by Huang Taiji, he is a guy who only grows muscles but not brains. Although Huang Taiji has a headache on weekdays, he will not specifically deal with reckless people like Amin.

Huang Taiji didn't blame the two for coming late, even if he wished to kill them now, he still had to smile, after all, he had to show a brotherly harmony to outsiders, so that people would know that I, Da Qing, also had to lose face of!

Huang Taiji handed Liu Xingzuo's booklet to Dai Shan, and said, "Brother, please take a look."

After everyone passed it on, Huang Taiji coughed and said: "Today, I would like to invite everyone to come over, just to let everyone have a discussion. Let's see, what kind of one-way trip should we come up with."

Amin is a rough person, and he was not happy with Huang Taiji in the first place. This time, he was called by the people in the middle of the night, leaving the warm bed and the soft and smooth body of the bright lady who warmed the bed tonight. Death Emperor Taiji was about to have his thoughts, and immediately pushed back abruptly: "What are you calling us for? You are a big sweat, you have the final say, and you can decide for yourself?"

Dai Shan next to him felt refreshed, but on the surface he turned his head and reprimanded: "Amin, what are you talking about?" Then he turned his head and bowed to Huang Taiji and said, "Forgive me, Amin is reckless. Big Khan, don’t be as knowledgeable as him.”

Huang Taiji was depressed in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face, and said with a faint smile: "Brother, where did you say, we are blood brothers, so how could I take offense? I just don't know what elder brother thinks Liu Aita is going to act. Bing Fa Ming about this?"

Dai Shan said: "Slaves are not good. If the military and state affairs are ruined, the slaves will die. Mr. Fan has always been wise and tricky. Why don't you ask Mr. Fan's opinion first."

Huang Taiji knew that he couldn't get anything out of Dai Shan, an old fox, if it wasn't for saving face, he wouldn't have planned to call them over at all, it would have been better if he had discussed it with Fan Wencheng, a dog slave.
