In the thirteenth year of Zhengde, on the night of September 23. Ling 11, the thief of Poyang Lake, took advantage of the fog to attack Nankang City, attacked and killed more than 120 officers and soldiers stationed in the south of the city, and burned more than 10 large and small warships.

In addition, the thieves also attacked the Nankang Mansion and robbed the detained lead mountain bandit Wu Sanba. The prefect of Nankang fled from the north gate in panic and was able to survive, but the property in the house was looted, and the two concubines and a number of maidservants were taken away by thieves.

In the evening of the next day, the news that Nankang City was broken by thieves was reported to the Nanchang Governor's Yamen by Kuaima, and the whole city shook after the news spread.

Jiangxi Governor Sun Sui was furious, and immediately summoned the Jiangxi Provincial Governor to command the envoys, the criminal envoys, and the political envoys left and right to discuss major matters. The next day, Sun Sui ordered the mobilization of two guards and horses in Nanchang, as well as Jiujiangwei and Duchang Qianhusuo, and nearly 20,000 troops and horses to Poyang Lake to launch a huge military operation to suppress bandits.

As soon as Sun Sui's order to transfer troops was issued, the news reached Ning Wangfu, and Ning Wang Zhu Chenhao sneered, and immediately ordered the two guards of the palace to be mobilized into Poyang Lake for "drills", which was actually to obstruct the Ming army from suppressing bandits.

It is worth mentioning here that Xu Jin fled Nanchang by boat under the cover of Sun Sui that day, and when King Ning arrived at the governor's yamen with gifts, he found that Xu Jin had left, and he was immediately angry.

King Ning was worried that the bandit leader Wu Sanba would confess unfavorable news to him, so he put Xu Jin, an "auspicious rui", aside for the time being, and invited a group of subordinates to discuss countermeasures.

In the end, King Ning decided to attack Nankang City to rescue Wu Sanba, and by the way, looted the ordnance materials stored in Nankang City.

King Ning has been operating in Jiangxi for many years, which can be described as deep-rooted and leafy, coupled with his early disobedience, how can military towns like Jiujiang and Nankang not be arranged?

Therefore, King Ning seized the opportunity, coupled with the cooperation of the internal response, he easily broke through Nankang City, rescued Wu Sanba and robbed a large number of ordnance, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone.

Of course, Sun Sui is not an idiot, it is impossible for those rabble water thieves to break through Nankang City so easily, not to mention that those thieves who attacked the Ming army's water village also used a large number of firearms, where did the thieves get firearms? A discerning person will know it at a glance.

However, although Sun Sui knew that King Ning sent troops to do it, he had no way to take King Ning without evidence, so he could only send heavy troops to encircle and suppress Poyang Lake and kill those "water thieves" who plundered Nankang City.

However, in the name of drills, King Ning then sent the two guards belonging to King Ning's Mansion to Poyang Lake, which immediately disrupted all of Sun Sui's deployments. Because those "water thieves" can be turned back into the palace guards in a grand manner, Sun Sui worked hard to mobilize the people, and in the end he could only draw water with a bamboo basket - a failure.

Sun Sui was so aggrieved that he was about to vomit blood, and from the end of September to the end of the Chinese New Year, he went on a continuous trip of seven and eight hundred miles, bluntly saying that King Ning was going to rebel, but all the pieces were lost in the sea.

……

After Chongyang ascended, Xu Jin lived in Fei Mansion with peace of mind, and went to Goose Lake Academy with the Fei brothers every day to study, and occasionally took time to accompany Xie Xiaowan, a little girl, to go shopping, and live a stable and fulfilling life.

When he received a letter from Sun Sui, saying that Nankang City had been breached and the bandit leader Wu Sanba had escaped, Xu Jin was really nervous for a while, speculating that King Ning was about to rebel, but in the next month or so, nothing happened at all, King Ning did not show signs of rebellion in advance, and it is estimated that the trajectory of history has not changed, and King Ning will not rebel until next year, so Xu Jin's heart is finally slightly relaxed.

……

In the thirteenth year of Zhengde, on the morning of the eighth day of the lunar month, the weather was cold and the wind was biting. There was a light rain just last night, and a few cold plum trees in the courtyard were waiting to be released.

Although the weather was cold and there was no need to go to the academy today, Xu Jin still got up early in the morning as usual, and after washing, he jogged in the courtyard to practice tuna, and then read in the morning under the plum tree.

And inside the house, Xie Xiaowan and Yue'er are packing up, because they will leave to go back to Shangrao tomorrow, they have lived in Fei's house for more than two months, and it is time to leave, and they still have to go home this year, not to mention that the patriarch Xu Deming has already sent several letters urging him to go back to Xujia Village to worship the ancestors and martyrs before the year.

A few months ago, the news of Xu Jin's first place in the examination was transmitted back to Xujia Village, and the whole village was boiling.

Patriarch Xu Deming finally breathed a sigh of relief, there was no need to worry about the gambling contract, and in his excitement, he rushed to Shangrao County in person, ready to wait for Xu Jin to come back to the village to worship the Xu ancestral hall, who knew that Xu Jin did not return to Shangrao at all, but had a lead county to live.

The patriarch of Xu came prosperously, and returned in defeat, and sent four letters in a row before the year, urging Xu Jin to return quickly, and he must return to Xujia Village before the year, otherwise he would not be filial and forget his roots. Of course, Xu Deming did not say this directly in the letter, but only linked the full text, which is what it meant.

"Hehe, Xu Gongzi is really diligent, he still gets up in the morning to read in such a cold weather, no wonder he can take the middle school three yuan."

Xu Jin was reading "Mencius" under the plum tree intently, when he heard a familiar voice, subconsciously looked up, and suddenly showed a smile and said: "Ruyi girl is here!" ”

Fei Ruyi was standing beside the rockery outside the zhang at the moment, obviously standing for a while, and those beautiful eyes like autumn water were looking at him.

The weather was cold, Fei Ru wore a set of palace pink placket armor, covered with a light purple cape, and a snow-white goose down shawl, which was really picturesque, and her skin was so white that she was deceiving frost and snow, like a little fairy who came out of a fairy tale world.

He is also dressed thickly, dressed up cute and cute, and holding a food box.

Fei Ruyi walked in front of Xu Jin, straightened his collar for the latter with a slightly red face, and said softly: "The weather is cold, and the son has to pay attention not to catch a cold, it is cold in the morning, and it is better to read in the study." ”

In the Fei family for more than two months, Fei Ruyi has been arriving almost every day, getting along with Xie Xiaowan more closely than sisters, and often going to the study to help Xu Jin clean up and sort out the manuscripts, and sometimes there are intimate actions such as sorting out Xu Jin's clothes.

So the relationship between the two is just that the last layer of paper has not been punctured.

Xu Jin smiled: "It's okay, I'm strong, I'm not so easy to catch a cold, the outside air is good, my mind is clear, and my brain cells are active, which is conducive to memory." ”

Into the painting covered his mouth and giggled: "Xu Gongzi said some strange words again, what are brain cells?" ”

Fei Ruyi has long been accustomed to this, after a few months of getting along, she found that Xu Jin had too many strange things in his mind, and his personal thoughts were very different from others, which was obviously a very ridiculous and grotesque argument, but after thinking about it, he felt that it was very reasonable.

Therefore, Fei Ruyi, a "petty bourgeois girl", is now obsessed with "excavating" Xu Jin's brain, and enjoys it, she runs to this yard when she has time, as long as she can see Xu Jin and chat casually, she can be happy all day long, if she doesn't see it, she will be full of loss and worry.

"Into the painting, you can take Laba porridge in and give it to Sister Xiaowan!" Fei Ru commanded softly.

In the painting, he carried the food box into the house very interestingly, leaving his own girl and Xu Gongzi alone.

"Childe is going to start returning to Shangrao tomorrow, but do you have anything to say to others?"

Fei Ruyi raised her pretty face slightly and looked at Xu Jin, with apprehension in her shyness, her eyes were the same as when she was in the pavilion in the back house of Fei Mansion in Shangrao County.

Xu Jin looked at the moving and pretty face close at hand, the bright little mouth was like two pink peach blossoms, and he couldn't help but feel hot in his heart, and blurted out: "Wait for me!" ”

Fei Ruyi's heart tightened, and then she was filled with a spring breeze, and her pretty face was full of red clouds, she thought that Xu Jin would say some caring words such as taking care, but she didn't expect it to be such a straightforward expression, which caught her off guard and overjoyed.

Fei Ruyi lowered his head shyly, and said in a weak voice: "When will the son wait until he wants to be a slave?" ”

"Wait for the end of the filial piety period of the Ruyi girl!" Xu Jin is definitely authentic.

Fei Ruyi bit her cherry lip and hummed softly, shyly stuffed a sachet into Xu Jin's hand, and then walked briskly towards the house.

Xu Jin opened the sachet and found that there were three strands of green silk inside......

Gold scissors, green silk hair, fragrant ink love paper. and pink tears, sealed for a while, this love is tens of millions of times.

Green silk, love silk also!

Xu Jin put the sachet under his nose and smelled it, and the fragrance penetrated his heart.
