[Yi Tian] It's not easy to be famous and decent

The first meeting between Yin Liting and Mrs. Yin stems from a very bloody hero saving the beauty.

It was the third autumn when Yin Liting knew the real cause of Ji Xiaofu's death and decided to go down the mountain alone to wander the rivers and lakes. Yin Liting, who was a chivalrous hero in the Huaiyou generation, went back to Wudang to spend the Mid-Autumn Festival with his teacher.He walked to the outside of Dingyuan city alone, and saw countless cavalry soldiers chasing a father and daughter. The father had a long beard and was wearing an indigo Confucian uniform, but the daughter was young and bright-eyed. It is beauty.This pair of father and daughter, one is old and tall and the other is a weak woman, how can they run so fast, even though they tried their best to run away, they were quickly surrounded by those Yuan soldiers roaring.

The leader held a saber and pointed condescendingly at the father and daughter who were tumbling into a ball, and said triumphantly: "Master Cheng, you killed our ten husbands, and Lord Baihu ordered me to take your head back. As for your Daughter, I will take good care of you, so you don't have to worry!" After speaking, he went to tease the woman amidst the laughter of his subordinates.The woman screamed and struggled desperately, but how could she survive the barbaric Yuan soldiers, the old father came up to rescue him while cursing, but was cut in the head by the leading Yuan soldiers.Seeing that the leader had no intention of killing the old man for the time being, the other three Yuan soldiers laughed and surrounded the old man with blood on his forehead and pushed him from time to time to make fun of his embarrassment turning over like a turtle, secretly hoping that when the leader had a good time, he would also Well it's their turn to enjoy.

However, none of these four people could achieve good things with the future Mrs. Yin after all.Yin Liting, who happened to pass by, as a Han, saw how the Mongols bullied the Han, and immediately caught up with them and sent them back to the west with a sword.Unsurprisingly, the father and daughter of the Cheng family who survived the catastrophe cried bitterly, but after crying, Miss Cheng did something that made Yin Liting's heart shudder every time she thought about it—she picked up a saber and killed her. The lower bodies of those four Yuan soldiers were hacked to pieces!

Although Yin Liting was a warrior who lived a life of licking blood with a knife, he had never seen such a fierce woman, and immediately felt a little pain from the saddle three inches below his navel.It happened that the old man had already woken up, pulled his daughter to kneel with him and thanked him: "Old man Cheng Liyan thanked the hero for saving his life!"

Seeing this situation, Yin Liting hurriedly jumped off the horse, helped him up and said, "Old man, please get up quickly, this is what chivalrous people of our generation should do, why do we need to thank you?" Yin Liting saw that the father and daughter were just describing Slightly embarrassed and not in danger of his life, he took out another bottle of gold sore medicine. "We met by chance, I have other important matters to attend..."

Unexpectedly, the farewell was only halfway through, and Miss Cheng interrupted him: "Hero, the four people you killed were originally under Li Chimouke's command in the city. If Li Chi didn't see them return to the camp before sunset, he must send another The heavy soldiers came to look for them. At that time, my old father and I died without a place to be buried.” At the end of the Yuan Dynasty, the folk customs were quite different from those in the Tang and Song Dynasties. Most of the unmarried women were raised in deep boudoirs, and as the children of officials and eunuchs, the rules were stricter, and it was not uncommon for them to never see a foreigner in their whole life.Often when meeting a strange man accidentally, she would tremble like a quail. If the man strikes up a conversation with her again, it would be considered bold if she didn't faint from fright.Someone like Miss Cheng who dares to talk to a strange man is already a hero among women. As for her ability to slash people with a knife, it is even more astonishing.

Yin Liting's face turned red, but he just muttered silently.It's not that he is cruel, it's not that he is afraid of things, it's just that he has clearly heard the conversation between the father and daughter and the four Yuan soldiers.That old man is not a commoner but the county magistrate of Dingyuan County, he also communicated with those yuan soldiers on weekdays, but for some reason he killed their ten husbands, so that those yuan soldiers wanted to chase and kill their father and daughter.The people of the Yuan Dynasty were ferocious and led beasts to eat people. They occupied the Han family but could not sit in the country. Therefore, when Kublai Khan was in power, he recruited a group of Han officials who had lost their integrity, such as Liu Mengyan, Ye Li and others, and promised them a high position. Gold and silver are their minions.However, after the death of Kublai Khan, the battle for the throne in the Yuan court became more and more fierce. As those Han courtiers who used to be dressed in red and purple gradually became equal to the value of a donkey, the Han people in the Yuan court who were willing to work for the Mongols also became Fewer and fewer, even those who are famous poets and book heirs are willing to study behind closed doors and rarely become officials.Since Cheng Liyan was a Han Chinese but was willing to be an official of the Yuan court, Yin Liting couldn't help looking down on him.It is not a chivalrous act to see death and not save him, but in Yin Liting's view, since Cheng Liyan has become an official of the Yuan court, the incident between him and Yuan court is nothing more than dog bite dog.

Yin Liting didn't want to be the bodyguard of the father and daughter, but Cheng Liyan, who was wearing a Confucian uniform but without a trace of literati dignity, hugged Yin Liting's thigh and cried: "If the knights refuse to help, my father and daughter will die ! Rather than dying at the hands of the Mongols, it is better to die at the hands of the Han people, please be a knight!"

Yin Liting was helpless, and looked at Miss Cheng as if asking for help.Unexpectedly, this Miss Cheng, who was able to chop people with a knife just now, is only pulling her sleeves weakly at this time, crying pear blossoms and raining pitifully. "Daddy, my daughter will go with you now, Daddy... My father and daughter can support each other on the way to the Yellow Spring..."

A strange feeling emerged in Yin Liting's heart, and it was many years later that he realized that the name of this feeling was - dumbfounding.In desperation, Yin Liting had to lead the two of them to temporarily settle down in a ruined temple outside the city.That night, Yin Liting sneaked back to Dingyuan County, cut off the head of the Mongolian Baihu Lichi and hung it on the city wall.His confidant died, and no one chased their father and daughter. Yin Liting thought that Cheng's father and daughter would be very grateful to him, so he could take advantage of the situation and relieve himself of his bodyguard duties.Unexpectedly, Cheng's father and daughter who originally thought that Yin Liting had abandoned them and were in a state of panic in the ruined temple heard what Yin Liting had done, and immediately suppressed their happy smiles.Cheng Liyan even cried out like a thunderbolt: "You killed Li Chi? Did you really kill Li Chi?"

Yin Liting saw that Cheng's father and daughter were both horrified and didn't know why, but he said in a daze: "The head is already hanging on the city wall, how can it be fake? Once this person gets rid of the Yuan soldiers in the city and has no leader, Mr. Cheng will be with Ling Ai." It's all right."

"Confused! Reckless man! There is no way out for the people in my city!" Cheng Liyan suddenly changed his face, pointed at Yin Liting and cursed a few times, then staggered out of the ruined temple, took off the reins, got on the horse and swung the whip away. I can't care less.

"Daddy! I'll go with you, Daddy!" Miss Cheng also ran out to untie another horse.It's a pity that Miss Cheng is still the son of an official. Although she can wield a knife, she has never learned how to ride a horse. After several attempts, she has never been able to ride a horse.

Yin Liting, who was as confused as Zhang Er King Kong, came out and asked stupidly: "What's going on?"

"What's going on? How dare you ask what's going on?" Ms. Cheng was anxious and angry at first, but seeing the culprit so ignorant and innocent, she was even more furious in her heart. She just wanted to slap him on the face. The distorted voice was harsh, and she didn't look like a lady in the slightest. "The iron rule of the Yuan army is that if the leader dies, the follower will be killed if he lives! Na Lichi is the nephew of Qianhu in Qingliu County. If you kill him now, his subordinates must find the murderer for their own protection. Lord Qianhu, please tell me. If you run away, the people in my city will be treated as scapegoats! It’s really a chivalrous crime, and the ancients will not deceive me!"

Yin Liting's face turned pale, and he immediately realized that he had made a mistake in this step. Since he was in the rivers and lakes, he had killed the bandits in the green forest and the Yuan soldiers who did evil.It's just that for those Mongolian officials who are also full of evil, he wants to be a swordsman, and his master and brothers always warn him to act cautiously and not leave the beginning and the end.He always thought that it was because Yuan Ting's spirit was not exhausted, and the master and senior brothers were afraid that his reckless actions would hurt the master's family. Now thinking about it, they should also be afraid of hurting the common people.Yin Liting's heart sank, and he said immediately: "Who is that Qianhu? I'm going to kill him now!"

"Reckless man! Stupid!" Ms. Cheng laughed angrily, "If you kill a thousand households, there will be ten thousand households, and if you kill ten thousand households, there will still be Taiwei! So what if you kill the emperor? Your daughter, I am a Han Chinese but a fourth-class slave. Don’t you want to lead the army to rebel?” These words were extremely rebellious, and Miss Cheng burst into awe when she blurted out in anger.The two looked at each other in silence, and could only hear the rustling of the leaves being blown by a gust of cold wind.

After a while, Yin Liting suddenly said: "The matter has come to this, what are your father and Miss Cheng's plans?"

Seeing that Yin Liting still looked so stupid and ignorant of the importance, Miss Cheng's face twisted and her mouth slanted angrily, but she could only hold back her anger when she thought that she still needed something from him: "Those Yuan soldiers usually treat the Han people as such. Horses, cows, pigs, and dogs, why don’t they burn, kill, and loot as much as they want now that they have found an excuse? Life is hard to save, so why bother with property? The only plan for the present is to flee with the whole family, or flee to the mountains or go to relatives, and leave the destination as soon as possible Yuan County is better."

Yin Liting just passed by Dingyuan County yesterday, there are no less than thousands of people in the county, and now only one hundred Mongolian families have died, and the Mongolians are coming to seek revenge, these thousands of people thought of fleeing rather than resisting.Thinking of this festival, Yin Liting couldn't help but smile inexplicably, and said: "I didn't report my name last night, so it was my fault. I am sending Yin Liting to Wudang. I have taken shape in Wudang to take in the victims of the Yellow River these years. This time, it is me who has affected the people of Dingyuan County." In the past, if... If the people ignore the past, Yin recommends himself and is willing to escort the people of Dingyuan County all the way to Wudang for resettlement."

"Good way!" Ms. Cheng immediately cheered up when she heard the words. It would be great if the Wudang faction is well-known and willing to take him in! "Let's catch up to Daddy!"

Yin Liting got on the horse immediately, but hesitated when she saw Miss Cheng stretch out her hand to him.The two of them, the unmarried man and the unmarried woman, should take care of Li Xia in the melon field, the so-called men and women have different seats at seven years old, yesterday Miss Cheng just rode with her father.Unexpectedly, Yin Liting frowned slightly, and Miss Cheng was already yelling: "Hurry up and get me on the horse! I'm a woman who doesn't hesitate to be famous, are you still a man?"

Obviously last night in the ruined temple with your father by your side, you and I still set up left and right, don't cross the thunder pool half a step!Yin Liting slandered silently, and silently pulled Miss Cheng onto the horse and sat behind him, and silently rode the horse towards Dingyuan County.

Cheng Liyan regards the people as his nephews, and the people also regard Mr. Cheng as their parents.I heard Cheng Liyan say that the Mongols will not give up if they die naked, and everyone left Dingyuan County early to avoid disaster; and Miss Cheng who rushed to Wudang later said that they can go to Wudang with them, except for a few people in the county For households with relatives in neighboring counties who want to go to Wudang, most of the people are willing to follow Mr. Cheng to Wudang for resettlement.It also takes two days from Dingyuan County to Kuaima where the Yuanren Army Camp is located in Qingliu County. That night, Yin Liting went to the hundred households without stopping and killed the remaining dozens of Yuan soldiers. In case they pass the message to block the people.In the early morning of the second day, the people of Dingyuan County packed their bags and set off for Wudang with Cheng's father and daughter and Yin Liting.By noon, Dingyuan County had become an empty city with no trace of human habitation.

It was a long way from Dingyuan in Anhui to Wudang in Hubei, and Yuan soldiers could chase them at any time. Yin Liting's plan was to take the people of Dingyuan County to Huainan to Wudang by water.The distance between Huainan and Dingyuan is very far, even though the people have the horses brought by Yin Liting from the Yuan Dynasty and their own donkeys and mules, the speed of travel is not fast.Everyone knew that Yuan soldiers might chase them at any time, and they didn't dare to walk the official road, and they didn't dare to light a fire when eating or drinking at night, so in just a few days, the people in Dingyuan County turned into victims of disasters.But even so, no one complained that Cheng Liyan caused disaster for them.

One night, out of curiosity, Yin Liting softly asked an old man why he was willing to abandon his family property and follow Cheng Liyan to Wudang.The old man with a dimpled face sighed and said: "People in the Yuan Dynasty pay seven out of ten taxes very heavily, and they set up clever names to blackmail them from time to time. If Mr. Cheng hadn't been able to change it over the years, I would have been unable to survive. Chang coveted the beauty of a little girl and wanted to do that wrong thing, everyone was so outraged that they beat him to death, Mr. Cheng took the blame for us... Yin Xiashi, it is Mr. Cheng who has implicated us, it is clear that I have implicated everyone. ..." He was so angry that he couldn't calm down, his withered and yellow cheeks suddenly flushed, and he beat his chest and coughed again and again.

The old man's daughter, who had changed her makeup, hurried over and patted the old man's back with tears in his eyes to comfort him.Several common people who were sitting not far from the old man heard the sound and surrounded him, and comforted the old man in one voice: "Old man Li, don't talk about it! We watched Juan'er grow up, how can we just sit there?" Seeing her being ruined by the Tartars? Everyone is from the same village, and there is no distinction between black and white. How can you say who is hurting whom? Mr. Cheng is a good official, as long as we follow Mr. Cheng, we will have a good life, so don't worry about it. "

Yin Liting silently retreated from the crowd, Fang looked back and saw Miss Cheng standing outside the crowd and listening silently, with an indescribable pride on her face, but tears rolled down her white cheeks accidentally.The teardrops shone brightly under the moonlight, as if they also had distinct edges and corners.Yin Liting's heart moved, and an indescribable feeling suddenly surged up. He walked towards Miss Cheng respectfully and bowed his head, and said softly: "It was Yin who misunderstood your father before, but now I have seen it with my own eyes and heard it with my own ears. Only then do you know that what your father does is really concerned about the people!"

Ms. Cheng couldn't help but burst into tears when she heard the words, and said in a low voice: "To survive in troubled times, the people of Yuan Dynasty regard us Han people as cattle and horses. If we can't unite and support each other, I'm afraid we won't get a good death."

Yin Liting pondered for a moment, and then said: "Miss Cheng and your father have such knowledge, why do they condescend to serve Yuan people? Master Cheng cares about the common people but ends up living on the salary of the Yuan court, which is a disadvantage."

Yin Liting's words were harsh, but Miss Cheng seemed to be used to hearing them and didn't take them seriously, she just said loudly: "My father won't be the county magistrate, someone else will be the county magistrate. But under my father's rule, although the people of Dingyuan If you can't enjoy all the wealth and honor, at least you have to worry about food and clothing. People in Yuan Dynasty donate miscellaneous taxes, and there are fathers who work together with the people to plan painstakingly; The middle school is already empty!" She suddenly turned her head to look at Yin Liting with piercing eyes, and said, "You wait for warriors to wield swords, you are so chic and happy, although you have never condescended to serve Yuan people without harming the integrity, what good will it do to the people of the world? "

Miss Cheng's words were really sonorous and powerful, and Yin Liting felt ashamed for a while.I just feel that although I used to be happy as a hero, I can say that making the people live in peace is not as good as Mr. Cheng, but he still can't let go of that little attachment in his heart. "I appreciate Mr. Cheng's love for the people and selflessness, but the Yuan court's salary and the forbearance to serve him is still the intention of negotiating peace with the Yuan court. Dingyuan County has Mr. Cheng. The people of Dingyuan County are very lucky. If everyone in the world is like Mr. Cheng, Knowing that the Yuan people have harmed our Han people, they dare not kill them. Thousands of people in Dingyuan County are willing to flee with their families when they know that the Yuan people may retaliate, but no one is willing to defend their homeland to the death. When will we be able to restore our Han people? ?”

When Yin Liting asked this question, Miss Cheng was also tongue-tied, and the two stood facing each other, but neither could convince the other.

"Scholar Yin, if you want to restore our country to the Han people, you need someone who is as righteous as Yin Chivalry, but you also need someone who is tolerant and plotting. Although Cheng has done his best to protect the people of Dingyuan County, he is still in panic. He has been busy these days to settle the people. I have never had a good conversation with the Yin chivalrous men, but now I would like to ask, what is the relationship between Wudang School Song Qingshu and the Yin chivalrous men?" At this moment, Cheng Liyan came over with his hands behind his back.

Yin Liting hastily saluted Cheng Liyan, "Nephew Qingshu was originally my elder brother's only son, Mr. Cheng recognizes it?"

Cheng Liyan replied with a slight smile: "I was lucky enough to meet you a year ago. Song Shaoxia has a lot of means in the world, and he has reorganized Wudang's family business to flourish..." Cheng Liyan had only spoken halfway before he noticed that Yin Liting's face was full of doubts Guessing that Yin Liting might not know what Wudang's current "family business" is, he said, "When I go to Wudang, Yin Xiashi might as well take a good look at your nephew's every move. "
