Chapter 55 Mrs. Li

Seeing Sun Xiucai and others walking away, Zheng Yunzhi angrily returned to the cave. Uncle Huai couldn't help but sigh slightly and said calmly: "Xiaowu, what do you think of what Sun Xiucai said?"

Zheng Wuyi was startled and said hurriedly: "This master's family affairs, I don't dare to talk nonsense."

"Family matters..." Uncle Huai smiled and nodded, as if saying to himself: "What a family matter."

After saying that, he went into the cave.

Zheng Wusan was left behind. You looked at me, and I looked at you, with different expressions.

As soon as Sun Xiucai proposed marriage, to be honest, Zheng Wu felt happy for a moment. It is impossible not to be angry when Ying Yi seized power and placed Zheng Yunzhi under house arrest. For more than half a month, Zheng Yunzhi had hardly left the cave. She sighed every day and became much thinner. How could Zheng Wu not hate Ying Yi?

But even though Zheng Wu had not been in contact with Ying Yi for a long time, he knew that he was an extraordinary person. Moreover, he agreed with what Ying Yi said from the bottom of his heart. If it comes to pass, based on what Ying Yi is doing now, he may not have a great future in the future, and he, Zheng Wu, can also take advantage of it.

If we can turn conflicts into friendship and become a family, that would be a good thing. But he also knew that with the master's stubbornness, it might not be easy.

"I just hope that Uncle Huai can persuade the master." Zheng Wu said in a low voice.

Zheng Liu and Zheng Jiu were both speechless after hearing this.

Uncle Huai entered the cave and saw Zheng Yunzhi with his back to the entrance of the cave. He was breathing heavily and he was thinking about how to speak. But Zheng Yunzhi didn't wait for him to speak, then waved her hands and said: "Uncle Huai, don't say anything. You traitor and traitor want to marry my daughter in the next life!"

"master..."

"shut up!"

Zheng Yunzhi turned around, her face flushed, and said angrily: "He stole military pay, caused me to neglect my duties, put me under house arrest, and treated me as nothing. Now, do you still want me to send my daughter away?!"

"How can you say such disgusting words?!" At this time, the curtain of the side compartment was opened, and Mrs. Li said angrily: "Zheng Yunzhi, have you read all the books you have read for decades in vain?!"

When Zheng Yunzhi heard this, he was furious and pointed at his wife, Mrs. Li, speechless.

Mrs. Li asked again: "What does it mean to send a daughter away?"

She glared at Zheng Yunzhi angrily and said to Uncle Huai, "Uncle Huai, don't listen to your master's nonsense."

Uncle Huai lowered his head and stood with a bow. After all, there is a difference between master and servant.

"Uncle Huai, tell me, what's going on?" Mrs. Li walked out: "I didn't hear you clearly in the back room. Was it Sun Xiucai outside just now?"

Uncle Huai nodded: "Yes, madam, she is Sun Xiucai."

Then Uncle Huai told the original story of what happened before, and finally said: "Sun Xiucai hopes that Ying Yi will marry the eldest lady so that he can be friends with Qin and Jin."

There was a crash, and the partition curtain suddenly swung, and Uncle Huai clearly saw a red face.

"Madam." Uncle Huai said: "The things here are really hard to describe. It's complicated to say it's complicated, and it's not complicated to say it's not complicated. Between Ying Yi and the master...the master is standing from the perspective of the court, and Ying Yi was speaking from the perspective of his own common people. The purpose of organizing soldiers and horses was to cooperate with the imperial army in suppressing thieves, but Ying Yi was unwilling. He believed that the imperial army was just like thieves, especially Zuo Liangyu and his ilk, who were not worthy of trust. He doesn't want to be controlled by anyone, and plans to do it by himself, fight off the thieves by himself, and not get involved with the imperial court."

"Rebellious ministers and traitors are treasonous and immoral!" Zheng Yunzhi scolded angrily.

"Be quiet." Mrs. Li glared at her husband again: "Is that what happened? What do you think, Uncle Huai?"

Uncle Huai thought about it and said, "Madam, if you look at it from the perspective of the old slave and other servants, I would agree more with Ying Yi's approach."

Zheng Yunzhi was furious: "Traitor!"

"Shut up!" Mrs. Li was furious: "Can you wait until Uncle Huai finishes speaking?!"

Zheng Yunzhi shook his sleeves fiercely and turned around.

Uncle Huai sighed: "We are the slaves of the Zheng family. We live for the Zheng family and die for the Zheng family. Madam, tomorrow will fall. Even with the shallow eyes of this old slave, I can see that something is not good. There are two things this time. One million taels of military pay and two hundred thousand shi of food, but what about last time? It was more than this time. But it also failed, and even Wang Qionian, the governor of the three sides, died. The master is loyal to the court, but the court is no longer sustainable. The old slave is not afraid , there is an old life left and right, and you will die when the time comes. But madam and master can’t do it. Madam and young master can’t do it either!”

He said: "Ying Yi is capable and resourceful, and he is not a thing in the pond. Qin lost his deer, and the whole world chased him away. Even a beast like a trespasser can make a splash, what reason is there not to believe that Ying Yi can do it too?" What? I have seen him act in a very orderly manner these days. Although there are some subtleties and omissions, they are extraordinary. Maybe... this may not be a way out. "

"How could you say such a thing?!" Zheng Yunzhi couldn't bear it anymore and cursed: "Why did Qin lose its deer? The Ming Dynasty will last for generations, but now it is only temporary..."

Mrs. Li ignored it at all and thought: "Uncle Huai's words may not be wrong. If the bandits do not enter the Central Plains, this cannot be said, but now... Master, the bandits have broken through Luoyang and surrounded Kaifeng, blocking the north and south. Even a female like me has seen the situation in the Ming Dynasty. Besides, sir, do you want to live in this cave for the rest of your life? Do Zi Niang and Xiao Yuer also want to live here for the rest of their lives? If you don’t think about me, you can’t Think of Zi Niang and Xiao Yu'er!"

Zheng Yunzhi's face turned extremely gloomy and she was speechless.

Mrs. Li said: "I will make the decision on this matter. I think Ying Yi is good and worthy of Zi Niang. Uncle Huai, go and tell Sun Xiucai that I agree to this matter!"

Uncle Huai bowed and slowly exited the cave.

I vaguely heard Mrs. Li's scolding: "...If you want to accompany the whole family, I will definitely not allow it..."

"But the court..."

"The imperial court, the imperial court, you know the imperial court. You are just a county magistrate. Do you have your turn to speak about the important affairs of the imperial court... This is the Crescent Valley, and you are a prisoner yourself..."

Uncle Huai shook his head sadly after hearing this.

...

Lian Biao looked at the confident Sun Xiucai and couldn't help but said: "Are you so sure that the county magistrate will agree?"

"There is no reason for the county minister to refuse to agree." Sun Xiucai said with a smile: "Although I will not be disadvantageous to the county minister, it is not a problem to remain under house arrest. The county minister may refuse because of his loyalty to the court, but Mrs. Li and Uncle Huai will definitely not Yes. Besides..."

Sun Xiucai smiled and said, "Did you know that every time I go to consult the county magistrate, Mrs. Zheng will quietly ask me about your lordship?"

"ah?"

Lian Biao couldn't help but be stunned.

"so..."

Sun Xiucai smiled and nodded: "I think Madam Zheng has already fallen in love with you."

"That's really... a match made in heaven." Lian Biao couldn't help but shake his head.

"Of course it's a match made in heaven." Sun Xiucai took a breath: "Once your Excellency marries Madam Zheng, there will be no hidden worries in the Crescent Valley. The county magistrate is very talented. If he can let go of the shackles of the imperial court, it will definitely be of great help to your great cause. .Wouldn’t it be great to accomplish so many things with one fell swoop?!”

"This matter is a done deal." Sun Xiucai said: "Don't worry about it for now, there will be consequences sooner or later. For now, it is more important to deal with the eunuch."

Lian Biao nodded: "Kill this eunuch?"

Sun Xiucai hesitated for a moment and said: "After all, this person is unusual. I'm afraid it would not be good to kill him directly. It still depends on your thoughts."

Lian Biao nodded: "Then I will ask people to come down from the mountain later."

Sun Xiucai nodded.
