Chapter 364: Wild Goose Slave
******
The war in Jiangnan is not completely over, and Bolo, Durd, Ilduzi, and Feiyangu are still on the run;
More than 300 people selected by Qian Qianyiquan to serve as officials in various places, some abandoned the city and fled; Some requested to be attached to the Qin state; Some claim to be orthodox in the state of King Lu in eastern Zhejiang; Some simply stand on their own feet in the city, intending to sell at a price.
In short, more than half of the prefectures and counties were not really under the control of the Qin state. At this time, Qin Mu entrusted the government to his subordinates, and rushed to Jiangyin with officials of the Ministry of Rites and some ministers at the level of waiters, and personally presided over the grand sacrifice.
The old stonemason named Huang Xi in Jiangyin City, carved a real portrait of Yuan Biwu and other 300 heroes on the Yellow Mountain outside the city, and after receiving donations from the people in the city, there were hundreds of stonemasons who joined in, and the progress was very fast.
After Qin Mu personally went up the mountain to check, he was full of emotion and burst into tears.
The first battle of Jiangyin was not only touching by Yuan Biwu, the soldiers of the Qin army. For example, that Fan Lao Xiucai, knowing that he was going to die, still insisted on asking for a bucket of gunpowder to be filled with silver, and he went to the enemy camp to surrender and die with the enemy.
The girl named Jing Niang was hit by three arrows in her body, but she held her breath and moved her body with difficulty to climb up to the top of the city, and when the rebel soldiers turned around and took the stones from her hands, she died with a smile.
The old woman surnamed Lu, whose two sons had died in battle, had been shot through the cheeks by the enemy's arrows, and she rolled down the city with the enemy who had just climbed up to the city, and died with the enemy.
In the 60-day defense of Jiangyin, there were countless tear-jerking deeds like this.
Qin Mu decided to recruit 500 stonemasons and 3,000 people, and expressed all these touching deeds in stone carvings, with inscriptions to tell their stories, so that future generations will always remember.
At the same time, he ordered the household department to allocate silver money and build a martyr's shrine on the mountain to worship all the heroic souls who died in battle. Moved the Yangon Temple in the south of the city to the Yellow Mountain. It was renamed Zhongling Temple, and the monks were responsible for the daily incense offerings.
And personally handwritten "heroic spirit immortal, heroic spirit lasts forever" eight big characters, carved a huge monument in front of each group of statues.
Another altar was built in front of the monument for every successor of Daqin in the future, and every civil and military jinshi came to worship.
He also reaffirmed the decision to allocate one million taels of silver to compensate the families of Jiangyin's war dead and reduce Jiangyin's taxes for 10 years.
At the same time as Jiangyin, Qin Mu ordered the household department to allocate another 500,000 taels of silver to prepare for the construction of the "Yangzhou Ten Days" Memorial Hall for the Victims in Yangzhou.
Another book with eight big characters "pity my world, there are many sorrows" was sent to Yangzhou. A monument is erected in front of the memorial hall.
These measures of Qin Mu not only moved the people of Jiangyin to tears, but also triggered a strong response in the south of the Yangtze River.
There is a famous man named Jin Cai and the word Shengsigh in Wu County, who was drunk in the city and shouted: "In the season of tomorrow, Shilin has no shame and hatred." Those who occupy high positions and enjoy heavy names. masked begging for pride; And the marshals of the feudal territory are all anti-introverted. The history of Duyan and Chen Erdian is righteous in one city. If this is the case with the envoy guarding the Jingkou, then Jiangnan will not give up his hands, and the king of Qin will sacrifice the righteous warriors of Jiangyin today. Heroic souls are comforted, hurry! Hurry! I should go to Jiangyin to worship together"
Someone laughed at him: "What's your name, isn't it your uncle Qian Qianyi who took the lead in lowering the Qing?" ”
Jin Cai was furious when he heard this, and snatched someone else's pen and paper. The next joint scolded his uncle Qian Qianyi:
a civil official with a small flower face;
The elder of the Three Dynasties was a traitor.
After the couplet was finished, Jin Cai threw his pen on the ground and went home to ride the little donkey. Regardless of the dissuasion of his family, he rushed to Jiangyin half-drunk and half-awake, and after hearing about it, the scholars in the county packed their bags one after another, and there were as many as 200 people who went to Jiangyin together.
Contrary to these people, peach pickers have also emerged. Seeing that the Qing army was defeated, the descendants of the Zhu family all over the country felt that there was an opportunity to take advantage of it, and they came out one after another to share the fruits of victory.
In a short period of time, it was reported that the king of Zhao started from Taihu, the king of Gui started from Guangxi (called Xinglong), the king of Jingjiang called Jianguo, the king of Baoning started from Jiangbei, the king of Luochuan and the king of Yongning also started from Hudong, and King Yi gathered 2,000 men and horses to raise troops, and King Hui, King Rui, King Anren, King Yongming, King Dehua, King Andong, and King Jinping of Jin also became restless.
Qin Muren was still in Jiangyin, and when he received the news that he did not receive news from all over the country, he couldn't help but be furious:
Damn, when the Tartars went south, you were all shrunken turtles, but you ran faster than rabbits, why didn't you set up a banner to resist the Qing Dynasty at that time?
Lao Tzu sacrificed nearly 100,000 soldiers before and after to achieve a phased victory, and you can't wait to jump out and pick peaches.
"I'll let you pick it!" Qin Mu coldly squeezed out these words, and then said to Huang Lianshan, who was following him: "Look at you, if you dare to come out, all of them will be slaughtered by this king!" ”
"Whoa!"
Huang Lianshan didn't dare to slack off, turned around and walked out, almost knocking down Yun Qiao'er, who happened to enter the door.
While Yun Qiao'er avoided Huang Lianshan, she keenly sensed Qin Mu's anger, patted her little chest and stepped forward and said, "Brother Qin, people know that Lu is wrong. ”
"Huh? What did you do wrong? ”
"Hey, you're not angry with others, so I won't talk about it." Yun Qiao'er's face changed, and her original stingy appearance suddenly turned into a triumphant state.
No matter how much anger Qin Mu had, he couldn't help but look at her cute appearance, and all of it disappeared.
Yun Qiao'er saw him smile, and her bright eyes flashed with a sly light.
"Girl, don't fight for three days, go to the house to uncover the tiles, come here."
"No!"
Yun Qiao'er suddenly retreated to the door again, like a vigilant goose slave, Qin Mu couldn't help but smile and said, "Okay, I won't beat you, come here, this king is in a good mood today, let's tell you a story." ”
"Really? What kind of story, Brother Qin tell it quickly. ”
Qin Mu has always been quite trustworthy, and after getting his assurance that he would "not fight", Yun Qiao'er immediately ran to his side, pulled his big sleeves, and begged eagerly.
"Sit down, sit down, by the way, pour me a cup of tea to moisten my mouth."
"Oh" Yun Qiao'er poured the tea at least three times faster than usual, and did not spill a drop, after pouring the tea and serving it, she looked at Qin Mu dryly.
After someone sipped tea, he habitually came to a violent millet before he began to speak: "Today, I will tell you interesting stories about two animals, the first animal is called a wild goose." ”
"Wild goose? Is it a slave of the wild geese? ”
"You can understand it this way, because the goose slave is the smallest species of geese, but it is very alert by nature. When the geese roost at night, they are worried that someone will come to hunt them, so they let the wild goose slave come to guard for them, the wild goose slave is alert by nature, and is very conscientious, patrolling around the wild goose, someone comes to it to chirp, and the wild goose has its sentry, so that you can sleep peacefully.
Later, when the hunter learned that there were goose slaves guarding the flock, he lit a fire to illuminate it. When the wild goose slave saw the fire, he quacked, and the hunter immediately extinguished the fire, and when the wild goose woke up, he did not find any danger, and so on three or four times, and the wild goose thought that the wild goose slave had deceived everyone, so they pecked it together. Not long after, the hunter stepped forward with torches, and the wild goose slaves did not dare to call again, and the geese had just fallen asleep, and they were all caught in a net, and none of them were missed. ”
"Ah, interesting, Brother Qin, tell me what the second story is."
"This is relatively simple, it is a kind of crane, called crane medium, because they are specially used by hunters to lure cranes, and the hunters put the crane medium by the lake, let it chirp, attract the cranes, and then catch them all. The Southern Song Dynasty poet Lu You wrote a five-character poem, and the poem is like this: Wuchang City at night, and the river flows thousands of zhang Qing. I'd rather die as a goose slave than be a crane matchmaker! ”
Yun Qiao'er's eyes flashed, and she blushed and said, "Brother Qin, people know that Lu is wrong, and he will never be a traitor again, Brother Qin, you can forgive me this time." ”
"Ha Luha, have you been a traitor?"
"Ah, you know that you have a good way, and you still ask people, is it okay for people to guarantee the levy and never agree to intercede with others again?" Yun Qiao'er turned into a pitiful appearance again, shaking Qin Mu's big sleeves.
"You, you're just preparing to rebel, you haven't had time to rebel yet, in view of the fact that you can get lost and wake up, this time this king will forgive you once, hahaha" Qin Mu is happy, raising his hand is another storm.
Qiao'er covered her head and said innocently: "Actually, people don't want to care about this, I'm your personal confidential secretary, well, I'm your goose slave, how can I be towards others." That Xu Dongjia, although pitiful, almost became a traitor, and Brother Qin must punish him well. ”
"Oh? Is he pathetic? ”
"Of course, Brother Qin, don't you know the truth?"
