Remember [] / manghuangji in one second to provide you with wonderful novel reading.

After the plan was decided, Tang Yun and Zhou Xinbing divided into two routes, the former led his troops to take Pujiang County, and the latter led his army to besiege Zhengzhai Town.

Zheng Zhai Town is on the edge of White Horse Town, and in just one hour, the official army completed the siege of the Zheng family.

There was no panic or overreaction in Zheng Zhai Town, and it maintained a palpitating quiet.

Although the Zheng family was silent, all the officials and soldiers felt great pressure, and this pressure came from the archway given by Taizu at the entrance of the town - the first one in the south of the Yangtze River, if you are brave enough, you can just let the horse come over and make a loud sound, but it is terrifying...... Zhou Xin ordered the officers and soldiers to dig trenches and camp on the one hand, and ordered people to go to the town to announce their intentions.

The old man Zheng naturally scoffed at his so-called "protection", but he still sent his son to the barracks to express his gratitude, and carried more than a dozen loads of fine wine and a dozen carts of pigs to work in the army, and brought him to apologize because he was "seriously ill and difficult to get up."

Zheng Yan went out of the nine archways and found that the outside of the town was already a deep trench, a forest of fences, and the officials and soldiers clearly guarded against death, and the people in the town were hard to fly.

Although he had long put life and death aside, his heart couldn't help but twitch when he saw this scene...... Dao Ming, the officers and soldiers let them pass through the area that had not yet closed the dragon, and deliberately led them through layers of barracks before leading them into the Chinese army.

After the ceremony, Zhou Xin did not make any tricks, and soon let him enter the big tent.

"The grass people meet Lord Zhentai."

Zheng Yan gave a deep salute.

"No courtesy."

Zhou Xinduan sat behind the big case, stared at Zheng Yan and said, "Please take a seat." ”

The guard served a chair, served tea to Zheng Yan, and bowed down.

Only Zhou Xin, who was sitting behind the big case, and Zheng Yan, who was sitting with him, were left in the big tent. The candle lit the tent, Zhou Xin was still looking at Zheng Yan, Zheng Yan also looked back at him, and the two were silent for a while.

After a long time, Zhou Xinfang said slowly: "It's been ten years, don't come unharmed, old classmate." ”

"Don't dare to ......" Hearing the word 'classmate, Zheng Yan seemed to smile and said: "I have long been a rural grass people, but Brother Rixin is a provincial platform, the people are ancestors, and the grass people can't climb high." ”

In this era, the county officials were called 'old parents, and the prefect's senior generation was the guardian parents, and so on, when it came to a provincial constitution, it was naturally 'great grandfather, ...... "You are still gentle and courteous." ”

A smile hung on the corner of Zhou Xin's mouth, and he said in a rare warm voice: "It's like twenty years ago." ”

Zhou Xin's words, Zheng Yan's thoughts back to the Hongwu period, when he was born into the tribute Taixue, as the first family in the south of the Yangtze River, the father and brother in the clan are mostly officials in the court, at that time Zheng Yan's natural scenery is infinite, even in the capital, nobles gathered, he still enjoys the respect of the stars holding the moon.

At that time, Zhou Xin was an inconspicuous Nanban boy, with a poor family background, who didn't like to talk, and was often bullied by some of his classmates.

Zheng Yan couldn't get used to it, so he often replied to him.

With Zheng Yan's protection, Zhou Xin was not bullied and was able to continue his studies...... In the years that followed, the two became more and more friends, became good friends who talked about everything, traveled hand in hand, recited poems, pointed out the country, and promoted words.

Until after the resignation, Zheng Yan in the court for the Qing noble ministers, Zhou Xin to the local officials as officials, the two also wrote constantly, each other to complain about the heart, until the fourth year of the construction, the change of Jingjing, the king of Yan broke Beijing, the officials in the capital were unwilling to serve the rebellious ministers and thieves, they abandoned the official and went into hiding, the children of the Zheng family were deeply favored by the two generations, and naturally they were among them, Zheng Yan returned to his hometown, studied behind closed doors, and served his father.

And Zhou Xin continued to be an official in the Yongle Dynasty...... Naturally, the two broke off contact.

The Tao is different, and the former friends are like strangers.

In the next ten years, the Zheng family naturally fell out of favor with the dynasty because of their negative attitude towards Emperor Yongle, and Zheng Yan gradually faded his halo, and he was no different from ordinary squires.

And Zhou Xin is famous, become the emperor's favor, the people admire, the famous cold-faced Tie Han Gong is now a province of Daxian, led the army to surround Zheng Zhai Town, the life and death of the Zheng family in his hands ten years in Hedong, ten years in Hexi, life and ups and downs of life, nothing more than this...... Thousands of emotions, tens of millions of emotions, but in the end, I have to return to reality, although the reality is so cruel...... "I came this time, they should explain it to your family." ”

Zhou Xin re-spoke: "Brother Ziyan came here in person, it shouldn't be just for the labor army." "Zhentai Mingjian," Zheng Yan arched his hand and said, "The grass people have three things to ask for advice this time. ”

"You can ask, but I don't necessarily can."

Zhou Xin said lightly.

Before Gen had time to relive the old relationship, he had to put on a mask of indifference.

"Yes." Zheng Yan nodded and said, "Caomin, please ask Zhentai, since the army is protecting the Zheng family, why do you dig a trench and set up a fence on the side facing Zheng Zhai Town?" "I don't know much about the arrangement of the army."

Zhou Xin said slowly: "But I think that as long as the Zhou family has a clear conscience, these things are not enough to worry about." ”

I can't ask any more questions.

Zheng Yan then asked the second thing: "Is it that during this time, no one is allowed to enter and leave Zhengzhai Town?" "It's not." Zhou Xin shook his head and said: "It's just that no one is allowed to enter, if there is anyone who wants to leave, as long as it is checked and confirmed that it is not a Mingjiao demon, it will naturally be released." After a pause, he said: "But now that there is chaos outside, in order to avoid danger, it is better to go out less." "Thank you for your kindness." Zheng Yan said: "But in fact, my Zheng family is not only enough to protect itself, but can even help the official army recover the county."

I heard that the disciples are stubborn and fanatical, and they defend the city, Uncle Tang's troops are too small, I am afraid that he will suffer, and I also ask Zhentai not to waste troops for the Han family, and quickly join forces with Uncle Tang, I am willing to send 2,000 soldiers to help the court. "The Zheng family has this heart, it's very good." Zhou Xin was silent for a moment and said: "But protecting the Zheng family is an order of the imperial court, and the official can only obey it."

As for the county seat, Uncle Tang has experienced a hundred battles and broken countless cities, so let's not worry about it. Said a little sadly: "I live in Beihaijun Nanhai, and I can't send geese to pass on the book."

A glass of wine in the spring breeze of peach and plum, and ten years of night rain in the rivers and lakes...... Ziyan, we haven't seen each other for ten years, and I'll invite you to drink tonight. "Huang Luzhi's poem, there is still the second half of the poem," Zheng Yan slowly shook his head and said: "The family is running but there are four walls, and the cure is not a three-fold humerus."

I want to see that the head of the reading is white, and the ape across the stream is crying miasma...... Presumably that's what you're trying to say, right? Zhou Xinyan was silent for a moment, then nodded and said, "Ziyan, do you have something to say to me?" "......" Zheng Yan was also silent, and shook his head for a while and said, "It's gone." "Ziyan" Zhou Xin's cold face that had not moved for thousands of years suddenly showed an excited expression: "Don't you understand, I want to save you" "......" Zheng Yan's expression darkened, and he said in a low voice: "Zhentai is too careful, and the Ming Sect can't destroy the Zheng family." Seeing him [confused, Zhou Xin finally tried to see the dagger: "Mingjiao can't destroy the Zheng family, but that person can destroy the Zheng family" "......" Zheng Yan said expressionlessly: "How to say this, please also ask the ministry to make it clear." "If you say it, you can't leave." Zhou Xin lowered his eyelids and said, "If Ziyan, you don't plan to go back, I will fulfill you." After all, he hasn't been out of the mountain for ten years, Zheng Yan is far from being Zhou Xin's opponent, and after hearing the words, he thought about the stakes and trivial, and his voice trembled a little: "Please tell me, but at this moment, Zhou Xin has already understood that it was built in Zheng's house, and in Zheng Zhai Town, he slowly shook his head and said: "Forget it, it seems that this glass of wine can't be drunk, you go back." With that, he turned away.

Zhou Tai came in and sent Zheng Yan out.

After Zheng Yan left the big tent, Zhou Xincai turned his head, and the eagle eyes that always showed a cold gaze were already slightly moist.

In the meantime, Zheng Yan left the barracks and returned to Zhengzhai Town.

As he walked down the empty street, the doors of the houses were opened, and the people looked at him fixedly.

No one is a fool, and they all see that a series of actions by the officials and soldiers are aimed at them.

Although they remained calm, they needed an answer - why did this happen? 'Why is this happening?' , Zheng Yan's mouth was full of bitterness and guilt, he couldn't face these gazes, raised his head, looked at the bloody remnant sun, he sighed deeply: "Put your heart at ease, it will be fine." The clansmen didn't move, and someone whispered: "Seventh Uncle, Zheng Mai's words before his disappearance, are they going to be fulfilled......" Zheng Yan's face suddenly became ugly, Zheng Mai said before he died that the K family was going to be wiped out, and this was no longer a secret in the clan through the mouth of his family.

Coupled with the clues of the past, although the clansmen could not guess the truth, they could clearly feel that the 'catastrophe of annihilation' in Zheng Mai's mouth seemed to be about to become a reality.

"A bunch of nonsense" Zheng Yan reprimanded with a black face: "Our Zheng family is the first in the south of the Yangtze River that Taizu personally sealed, and we share weal and woe with the Ming Dynasty."

The fortune of the country will last forever, and my Zheng family will also last forever" said to everyone and said deeply: "Everyone, please rest assured, if anyone in my Zheng family bears the word 'filial piety, then people and gods will abandon it, and after death, they will go to eighteen layers of hell, and they will not be able to live forever" Hearing him so slurs, the expressions of the people relaxed and said: "This is very good, I am most afraid that someone will do evil things, and it will be a great crime to shame our ancestors." "Absolutely not." Zheng Yan shook his head and said: "If you have something to tell everyone, you will ring the bell, now please go back to everyone, don't let your guard down." "Dare not obey your fate." The crowd responded and departed.

Looking at the simple and loyal clansmen, trusting Ruosi, but they still have to hide from them, Zheng Yan's heart is like a knife, and he came to the ancestral hall with heavy steps, and saw the white-haired old father, standing in the courtyard with his hands, and looking at the plaque of the Taizu imperial pen, the couplet inscribed by Fang Xiaoru into the gods.

'The historian does not use the Spring and Autumn Pen, the Son of Heaven personally writes filial piety, and the fourteen characters are so strong and powerful, righteous and awe-inspiring
