Qian Qianyi hugged Liu Ru and explained: "Then we can't watch him begging on the streets?" Liu Ru broke away from him and said: "Then why don't you hand him over to the saint, with the kindness of the saint, he will never harm him like Emperor Hongguang harmed the prince." Qian Qianyi sighed softly: "My Hedong Jun, you are too naïve, the benevolence of the saint is just a performance, it is a heron with fine meat on its legs, and a mosquito with fat in its belly!" Anyone who believes in him will eventually be deceived by his apparent benevolence. ”

Of course, Liu Ru couldn't resist Qian Qianyi, and it wasn't until she knew from Qian Qianyi that Zhu Cihuan, who was known as Wang Shiyuan, actually had no intention of competing with Zhu Si for the throne, that she was a little relieved. At least this person will not be instigated by Qian Qianyi, at least he can distinguish between personal interests and national interests, then his virtue is still respectable.

The front of the Qian family was finally clean, and Qian Qianyi was no longer as enterprising as before, and he returned to the ordinary life with Liu Ruyi. Qian Qianyi wanted to get rid of Wang Shiyuan again at this time, after all, this person had almost no value to him, but he might still be a burden. However, it was Liu Ru who stopped him and allowed Wang Shiyuan to continue to live in the Red Bean Pavilion. "Hedongjun, you have to think clearly, the five princes can't stay." Qian Qianyi said, Liu Ru asked rhetorically: "Didn't you say that you couldn't bear to see him begging everywhere, how can you be ruthless now?" ”

Qian Qianyi said: "At that time, I was not thoughtful, and I just wanted to help him, but now I am more worried about you, and I am even more worried that I will really be angry with me today, and finally affect you." Liu said: "This is okay, as long as you can promise me not to fight against this in the future, I can keep you fine." Qian Qianyi obviously didn't believe Liu Ruyi's words, and said, "Can Hedongjun keep me safe?" Could it be that there are important people in the DPRK and China who are friendly with you, how could I not know? ”

Liu said: "Of course, there will be such a person, and he and the concubine are still friends of life and death." Qian Qianyi's eyes lit up, and he approached Liu Ru and said: "If there is really such a person, why don't you help your husband run it and take a certain position in the court?" Liu said: "She is the most trusted person of the saint, but she can't make decisions for the saint in everything, although she can't help you get promoted and make a fortune, but she can definitely save your life." ”

Qian Qianyi said hurriedly: "Then what about the fifth prince, are we going to hand him over to Jinshang?" Liu Ru smiled: "Where is his going, don't you already care?" You, it's always this problem, doing things over and over again, upside down, and you don't insist at all, if I were a saint, I wouldn't reuse you. However, this kind of money Mu Zhai is cheap for me, you and I stay in this Yu Mountain, listening to the wind and watching the clouds and basking in the sun every day, but we are also happy and happy. ”17

Speaking of this, Liu Ru, who was originally immersed in happiness, suddenly showed a brutal attitude and asked: "I will try my best to protect the fifth prince, but you haven't answered my question yet." If you still want to toss like this in the future, and want to stumble on the saint everywhere, I will never ask that person to intercede for you. ”

Qian Qianyi stroked Liu Ruye's shoulder and smiled bitterly: "I'm afraid that even if I want to toss, I won't be able to do it in the future." The academic community envies me Qian Muzhai has thousands of disciples, but now most of these disciples are avoiding me, and even Qu Shiyun is not with me. Damu is now called Zheng Chenggong, and now he is named the national surname, so he naturally doesn't pay attention to me as a gentleman. I have sent him three letters, asking him to help the Five Princes with me, but he has already made up his mind to be a dog and horse for the strategist today. There is also Gu Yanwu, he is now in the second place, but among the many disciples, he is the first person to secretly cut off all contact with me, and I am no longer his husband. Now that my Qian Muzhai has become a loner, how do you say I can stumble today? Besides, isn't everything I do for the sake of this country? ”

Liu Ru leaned on Qian Qianyi with her back, grabbed his hands with her backhand and said: "You are a person, you will always be idealistic at the beginning, once you encounter setbacks, you will always complain at the end, and make your temperament. These three of your students are all excellent people, and their single-minded allegiance to the saints of today proves that the saints of today are by no means as stupid as you say. As the saying goes, loyalty and filial piety cannot be done both ways, and they finally chose to be loyal to the saints, do you, the teacher, think they are wrong? ”

Qian Qianyi broke free of Liu Ru is gripping hand, came to the door, looked up at the sky and said abruptly: "Don't I, Qian Qianyi, want to be loyal to the country?" I have also written many times to make statements and declare the benefits and harms; Shi Kefa was trapped in Yangzhou City by the Qing soldiers, and I also wrote a blood letter, asking myself to lead troops to help. However, whether it is Emperor Chongzhen, Emperor Hongguang, or even the current Emperor Yongli, none of them think of my Qian Qianyi's goodness, but they are all obsessed with the wrong things I have done. No emperor has ever given me the opportunity to rule the country! You must know that I, Qian Qianyi, am not a person who is afraid of death, nor am I a disloyal and unfilial person. I didn't die back then, not because I loved you deeply, I didn't want you to be the same age as the flower, but you wanted to die with me. I don't want the people of Nanjing to be slaughtered by the Qing soldiers for ten days like the people of Yangzhou. Didn't I sacrifice the southern capital to save the people of the whole city? But these people who were saved by my Qian Qianyi ended up scolding me, are they really not afraid of death? Are they the only ones who can be loyal to the country? In this way, after I sacrifice the city, they will also die, and my Qian Qianyi did not stop them! In this way, they can be their loyal ministers, and I, Qian Qianyi, will continue to sell the country for glory! ”

Liu Ru softly stretched out his arms from behind and hugged him and said, "Okay, okay, as long as you act right and stand upright, you will have the day of justice." Now let's leave that alone, I'm hungry, go get something to eat! Qian Qianyi's old face turned red because of his anger, but Liu Ru said a word softly, and his anger disappeared, and he took Liu Ruyi's hand and walked out with a smile.

"The sunset is infinitely good, but it's just near dusk, what does Huang Zongxi's poem say?" Fifty years of the Four Seas Sect Alliance, who will it pass on after the end of the heart period? Burn the words with cigarettes and candles, and ask the writer to pay off the debt. The red bean is lost in the moon, and the beauty wants to refer to the zither string. Who is your confidant? Can it be a shame for the public. 'I'm not dead, why is he so accused?' What do you say about the heart after the end of the period, who will pass it on, yes, my Qian Muzhai is now betrayed and divorced, and naturally everything I have learned in my life has become a joke, it is better to burn it, or to pay off the debt with a text. Am I in debt to whom? Who is in debt to me? I, Qian Muzhai, am already a lonely person and have no confidant, but it is not your turn Huang Zongxi to cry for me! How unreasonable! ”
