Chongzhen Undergraduates

"My humble servant welcomes the emperor!" The magistrate of Yiling is Zhang Dazhong, a Jiangxi native, not even a Juren, and a native of Enke Gongsheng.It can be seen that Yiling's status in this era was not high.

"Get up!" Zhu Youjian ignored Zhang Dazhong who was kneeling outside the city, but ran along the north gate to the river with great interest.

This place is so familiar to him, it's like coming home.It is a pity that the majestic Zhenjiang Pavilion has not yet been built, and the obvious coordinates that Zhu Youjian can find are Moji Mountain on the other side of the river.

There is a small island in the middle of the river, a paddy field turns yellow at the end of October, and a fishing boat rolls up and down with the waves of the river.The fishing boat was small, slowly drifting towards the shore under the paddles of an old fisherman.

"Go, ask if there is any Diaoziyu. If there is, buy two catties. It shouldn't be too big. It's best if it's long." Zhu Youjian pointed to the fishing boat in the river and said to Zhang Dazhong behind him.

Zhang Dazhong was taken aback, how could the emperor know about this Diao Ziyu?And it must be a long one?

"By the way, go to Xiba to buy some shrimps, that kind of millet shrimps." Seeing that Zhang Dazhong was running towards the shore, Zhu Youjian yelled from afar.

"Oh! Oh! Ah?" Zhang Dazhong staggered.He found out that Zhu Youjian was actually speaking with a Yiling accent, and he didn't even say such a small place name wrongly, and he was so frightened that his heart thumped.

Zhu Youjian’s first meal in Yiling was: crispy squid, fried shrimp with leeks, stewed fatty fish, chopped pepper fish head, braised sturgeon, also four dishes and one soup.

Because of the hot pepper, Zhu Youjian now takes it with him wherever he goes, and Nanjing also planted a large piece of hot pepper specially for him.

"How is it? Is it delicious? If it's too spicy, drink some soup." Zhu Youjian looked at Zhang Dazhong, who was so hot that his lips were red, and asked with concern.

Naturally, Zhu Youjian made the dishes himself, and these few dishes are dishes that he is very familiar with, and he can cook them with his eyes closed.

"Where are we going for dinner?" Now that he's back here, Zhu Youjian of course wants to take a look around.

"Reporting to the emperor, I feel that I should go to Sanyou Cave for a visit. This place is..." Zhang Dazhong quickly stood up, and introduced with foam.

"The first three tours and the last three visits? I don't want to go, it's just a few inscriptions. I think Wenfo Mountain on the south bank of the river is not bad, better than Sanyou Cave."

"Your Majesty, have you ever been to Yiling?" Zhang Dazhong couldn't calm down anymore, he was obviously someone who was very familiar with Yiling.

"Eh! I've been to Yichang, and I've seen it there." Zhu Youjian had no choice but to prevaricate, because the place name Yichang hasn't appeared yet.

Stepping on a familiar place, Zhu Youjian's mood was a little complicated. It has been more than a year since the time travel, and the scenery in front of him has become nothing but people.

That night, Zhu Youjian had a dream. He dreamed that some memories of Chongzhen were slowly fading away from his mind, while the memories of his previous life were slowly entering his head.

In his sleep, he struggled vigorously, sweating all over his body during the struggle.As more and more memories of Chongzhen left, Zhu Youjian felt like his soul was out of his body.

Fortunately, part of it went out, and another part filled in my mind, always maintaining a balance.

"Your Majesty, why have you become younger?" Early the next morning, Ji Biao, who was the first to see Zhu Youjian, said this in surprise.

"Oh, is that so? Where are you young?" Zhu Youjian didn't care at first, thinking it was Ji Biao praising himself.

"The hair seems to have turned a lot darker, and besides, the lines around the eyes are less." When Ji Biao said this, Zhu Youjian was suddenly startled, and hurried to get a basin of water.

The self in the basin has indeed become younger. The most notable feature is that the cheeks have become more contoured, and the face like a knife is more handsome.

"Could it be the dream from last night?" Zhu Youjian recalled the dream from last night and wondered if it was related to it.

Another day passed in a trance, and Zhu Youjian had another dream the next night.In this dream, he recalled his first love in his previous life, the appearance of that hazy girl, a person he had almost forgotten.But all the memories of Chongzhen's concubines in the harem disappeared in his mind, and Zhu Youjian couldn't think of them anymore even though he tried his best.

These memories were completely replaced by another woman's name.

Chapter 244: Qin Liangyu's pomp

Zhu Youjian originally thought that Qin Liangyu would not come, but he did not expect that Shizhu's reply was that Qin Liangyu would come in person, and he would arrive soon.

After getting the exact information, Zhu Youjian led all the people across the river and headed directly towards Shizhou (Enshi) without saying a word.

For Qin Liangyu, Zhu Youjian couldn't take it too seriously.Not only because of the great contributions she made to Daming, but because this person deserves the respect of the entire history.

In thousands of years of history, there are many descriptions of female heroes, such as Mu Guiying, Fan Lihua, Hua Mulan and so on.However, this is all because most of the past dynasties must have been in the north, and under the exaggeration of the strong culture in the north, they are all fictional works.

And the only female general recognized by history is Qin Liangyu!Yes, there is only this one, the only female general actually recorded in the 24 official histories.

Zhu Youjian led the people and went west until Longzhouping, Changle County, before stopping.At this time, the front scout reported that Qin Liangyu's men were twenty miles away from Longzhouping. At this time, the sun was already hanging on the top of the mountain. It seemed that Qin Liangyu would not be seen today.

"I passed on my word of mouth: recruit all the young and strong people around, and build a two-mile-long driveway here overnight."

"Your Majesty, I'm afraid this is inappropriate? It's a lot of work." Huang Zongxi persuaded by his side. In his opinion, the emperor's actions were indeed a little too much.

Zhu Youjian didn't answer a word, didn't look at anyone, walked to the side silently, picked up a hoe silently, and started digging from the bottom of his feet one by one.

Zuo Maodi also had a serious expression on his face, and without saying a word, he picked up the shovel silently.

The emperor's oral order was passed on, and in fact, the surrounding people did not need to be recruited, but spontaneously gathered towards Longzhouping.Before dark, crowds and groups of people with green silk headkerchiefs wrapped around their heads, pipa lapel tops, plum strips and "silver hook" embroidered on the hem of their clothes lined up in long queues along the banks of the Qingjiang River.

This is the territory of the Tujia people, Qin Liangyu is the pride of the Tujia people, why should Zhu Youjian summon him?

I don't know when, a chant was chanted, and a stone pier in the crowd was lifted high by the rope, and smashed to the ground with a sound.

"What are you doing standing around? If you have the strength, help out together and delay things as much as possible." Zhu Youjian glared at Deng Zhirong and Ji Biao. Check to surround in the middle.

The young man who had been scolded blushed, completely ashamed.Ji Biao has followed Zhu Youjian for more than a year, and he has never been scolded like this.

This night, Longzhouping is brightly lit; this night, there is a lot of people; this night, there is no sleep.

When the fish belly was exposed on the top of the mountain, one after another torches began to go out, and along the extinguished torches, a wide driveway with a width of three feet and a length of two miles appeared.

The driveway is solid yet soft. There is not even a finger-sized stone on the road. The top is paved with yellow sand, and there has never been a single footprint on it.

At the beginning of the driveway is a platform, where the emperor's guard of honor is located and a symbol of imperial power.But Zhu Youjian was not there, there was only a guard of honor on the stage and no one was there.

Extending two miles along the driveway, Zhu Youjian stood there wearing a dragon robe and leading all the officials, waiting quietly.A luxurious four-wheeled carriage with two white horses was parked in the middle of the driveway, and there was no driver in front of the carriage.

When the first ray of sunlight sprinkled from the hilltop to the valley, a group of soft sedan chairs came slowly from a strange place.

Clearing the way was a row of Tujia men with white gun barrels and shiny gun heads. They were still wearing bamboo armor, and even their helmets were woven from rattan.There are two tall triangular flags, with a "horse" and a "Qin" on the flags.

The team approached the driveway for twenty steps, and Zuo Mao walked to the middle of the road in a brand-new official uniform of the Ming Dynasty, and stretched out his hand in a bow: "Ding!"

"Wow!" the white-armed soldiers stopped at once, their movements were uniform and there was no noise.Deng Zhirong was dumbfounded, he never thought that there would be an army guard of honor in Daming that could surpass that of his Beijing camp.

Before Qin Liangyu got off the sedan chair, Zuo Mao opened the imperial decree Huang Juan at once, and read in the loudest voice:

"By God's blessing, Emperor Chongzhen of the Ming Dynasty said: Here is a stone pillar and Shi Jie to announce the consolation envoy Ma Qiancheng's widow, Qin Liangyu, who has accumulated military exploits for the Ming Dynasty, defended the land and protected the country, and worked hard. I am especially grateful! Qin Liangyu is specially appointed as the prince and tutor, and is loyal. Zhou Bo.

Zhongzhou Bo is the only pillar of the Ming Dynasty, so he is exempt from kneeling and worshiping.Now that the sage is here in person, I would like to invite Bo Zhongzhou to drive forward.This! "

After Zuo Maodi finished reading, he stepped back and walked aside.Zhu Youjian walked to the front of the white pole soldiers with excitement, bowed deeply to the sedan chair in front of everyone present, and then made a gesture of "please".

Qin Liangyu was about to get off the sedan chair, but because she was old, she moved a little slowly, and she hadn't stood up yet, and the imperial decree had already begun to be read, so she had to stand and listen to the imperial decree.

After the old lady heard the content of the imperial decree, her eyes were full of tears, and her vision was completely blurred by tears.When people are old, they are easily moved.

Just after the imperial decree was read, Qin Liangyu saw that familiar yet unfamiliar figure standing in the middle of the road a few years ago, and then bowed to her.
