    After Zuo Yuliang went out, Zuo Liangyu was so angry that he yelled and cursed for nearly a quarter of an hour before he stopped. However, at this time, he did not notice a trace of gloom on the face of Zuo Yuqing, who was sitting below and to his right.  And a satisfied smile flashed past.

    Zuo Yuqing ignored Zuo Yuliang's departure. In his opinion, since Zuo Yuliang had a dispute with his father just now, his threat to him has dropped to the lowest point. From now on, the only heir to the Zuo family will be  One, that is himself.

    So he quickly returned his attention to business. After pretending to console Zuo Liangyu for a few words, he said: "Father, the Chinese army is coming fiercely. We must not fight hard. We must leave a way out as soon as possible!  "

    Zuo Liangyu frowned, "Qing'er, it's not like you don't know that all the wealth my father has accumulated over the years is here. How can we retreat?"

    Zuo Yuqing smiled inexplicably and said mysteriously: "Father, don't forget that there are some people behind us. They are more anxious than us. If we lose, Dahua will take care of us.  Whoever is next will have their turn!"

    "You mean Zheng Zhilong and the others from Fujian?" Zuo Liangyu is not stupid either. He understood who he was talking about as soon as Zuo Yuqing reminded him, but then Zuo Liangyu shook his head again,  He sighed and said: "No, it's not like you haven't tasted the feeling of living under someone else's roof. Besides, Zheng Zhilong is not a fuel-efficient lamp. We don't know when we will be sold out by others when we arrive in Fujian with such a disgraced face."

    Zuo Yuqing didn't understand Zuo Liangyu's words. He sighed: "Father, this is just a choice we made out of desperation, but if there is still a way, how can the child make the next move? There are several people around us right now.  The provincial capital is already Dahua's territory. If Zhejiang is lost, the only place we can retreat to is Fujian. We can't run to the sea, right? We are not like Zheng Zhilong who started off as a pirate and controls a huge fleet of ships.  The team can advance, attack, retreat and defend."

    "well"

    After a long time, a faint sigh came from the room, and then there was no more sound.

    While the Zuo family and his son were discussing secretly, there was also an undercurrent surging in the city of Hangzhou.

    As the saying goes, there is heaven above and Suzhou and Hangzhou below. As a prosperous area in the south of the Yangtze River, Hangzhou has always been a gathering place for the gentry and wealthy households.  These wealthy gentry have great influence on both the court and the people. Of course, due to the new establishment of Dahua, they have not been able to reach out to the court so quickly, but their profit-seeking nature has not  The current situation has become more and more obvious. Dahua's dominance of the world has become a foregone conclusion. Naturally, these gentry have to make careful plans for the future.

    There is a red willow building in Hangzhou city. This small building is located in the northeast corner of Hangzhou city. The area where it is located is not prosperous. In the eyes of some people, it is just a quiet courtyard, but in the eyes of some wealthy young men in Hangzhou,  But this is not the case in the eyes of the households. In their opinion, the people who can often come here to sit and drink tea are those with status in Hangzhou City. The reason is for no other reason than that the owner of this small building is named Liu  If so.

    In today¡¯s small courtyard of Hongliu Tower, another group of guests came to Liu Rushi¡¯s small courtyard. This group of guests are not very old. They are all scholars or young men in their eighteenth and early twenties.

    Today, due to too many visiting guests, Liu Rushi's small upstairs could not entertain them, so he had to set up three banquet tables in the small courtyard. More than a dozen young and beautiful maids shuttled among the crowd like butterflies. Although the weather had changed.  It was cold and I couldn't appreciate their graceful figures, but the maid's hu¨¡ face still made everyone feel pleasing to the eye.

    Among the people at the three tables, there was a young man in his late twenties who was particularly eye-catching. This young man looked very handsome at first glance, but if you look closely, you can see a hint of gloom in his eyes from time to time.  .

    He was wearing a green Suzhou embroidered Confucian shirt and a square assessment scarf on his head. Although it was already a severe winter, he still held a gilt fan in his hand, looking very elegant and suave. This young man was the same person he used to be with  Pang Gang had Sun Xiyi who was celebrating the holidays.

    Due to the weather, there were not too many dishes on the table. Instead, a hot pot was placed on each table, surrounded by more than a dozen dishes of beef and mutton. There was a blazing charcoal fire in the middle of the hot pot, and the surrounding soup was already steaming.  It's rolling, and it smells so fragrant that people can't help but increase their appetite.

    But today, everyone here was obviously not in the mood to taste delicious food. The young scholar said calmly to a maid next to him: "Is Master Liu not out yet?"

    The maid replied cautiously: "Reporting to the young master, Miss Liu is still dressing up and will come out to meet the guests later. Please forgive me for the slightness."

    "I'd like to trouble this girl to go and urge you again and tell Master Liu that today we, a group of scholars from Hangzhou, have gathered here to discuss something with Master Liu."?Trouble her to come out quickly.  "

    This young man spoke very politely, even to a maid, without putting on airs.  After he finished speaking, he quietly stuffed a silver coin into the maid's hand.

    "yes!"

    The maid took the silver, with a sweet smile on her face. She leaned back and said softly: "Master Sun, please wait a moment. This servant will immediately go to urge the young lady and ask her to come here quickly." After saying that, the maid turned around and said,  Floating away like a beautiful butterfly.

    Looking at the maid's retreating silhouette, a voice behind Sun Xiyi rang out, "Brother Xiyi, do you think we can see the Liu family today?"

    Sun Xiyi looked uncertain, and after a while he replied, "It should be no problem to meet Mr. Liu, but the problem is whether we can get Mr. Liu to agree to our affairs."

    "Yes!" This student sighed softly: "The Liu family has a detached status now, so they won't care about the trivial matters of us people, right?"

    After hearing this, Sun Xiyi's face turned gloomy. He poured a glass of wine and drank it in one gulp.

    It can be said that those who come here today are all scholars in Hangzhou city. Their families have more or less industries and lands in Hangzhou and even Zhejiang. Now anyone who is not blind can see that it is only a matter of time before Dahua takes over Zhejiang.  question.

    ??????????????????????????????????????????????Outside of their minds, they naturally have to consider whether to join the new boss in the future, but the problem is that there are not too many scholars who want to join the new dynasty now, and those who don't have connections can't even think about it.

    "The term "curve to save the country" is not the patent of later generations. As early as the feudal era, our ancients had already used it very skillfully. These scholars naturally thought of Liu Rushi, a celebrity in Hangzhou.

    Liu Rushi and Chen Yuanyuan, the beloved concubine of the current emperor, are close friends and close friends. This has long been a secret among the people, and these scholars will naturally know it.  So someone came up with an idea, which was to ask Liu Ru to send a message to her close friend, hoping to use the pillow wind to ask Pang Gang to be merciful and not to be too harsh on them when they regain Hangzhou in the future, or even  It also depends on whether we can give them a chance to play for Dahua.

    Among these people, Sun Xiyi has the strongest desire. Who has ever had a problem with the current emperor? Although the current emperor has a higher vision after sitting in that position and is not as knowledgeable as him, there is no guarantee that there will be some  It happened that officials went out of their way to make things difficult for Pang Gang in order to flatter him.

    Therefore, Sun Xiyi went out of his way to invite all the scholars in Hangzhou to come and support Liu Rushi today.

    Everyone waited for another quarter of an hour before a slim and beautiful figure walked over accompanied by several maids. She was seen wearing embroidered clothes like snow, and her body seemed to be covered with a layer of precious light, like a gauze cage, but when she looked back,  But there was an unspeakable heroic spirit in his eyes. Who could this person be, Liu Rushi, the real master that everyone had been waiting for?

    Suddenly, Liu Rushi came to the crowd with light steps, said a thousand blessings to everyone, and said with a small mouth: "I have kept you waiting for a long time, and I hope you will atone for your sins. I will punish myself with three glasses of wine here.  You all apologize!"

    After saying that, Liu Rushi picked up a pot of wine from the tray held by the maid next to her, poured three glasses of wine into the cup, drank it all in one gulp, and then showed the cup in her hand to everyone, who hurriedly returned the gift and said:  Not daring, they all stood up, picked up their wine glasses and drank down the wine in one gulp.

    At this time, two maids brought a soft couch and placed it among the three tables. Liu Rushi sat down gracefully, and everyone sat down one after another.

    Liu Rushi's beautiful eyes rolled around, she stared at the crowd and smiled and said: "Rushu knows that all the young masters and nobles have many things to do, so you came here today, you must not have come here to drink with Rushu specifically, right?"

    "Uhthis"

    When everyone heard it, they got it!  This person is really direct and goes straight to the topic as soon as she comes. However, although Liu Ru is a woman, her reputation for boldness is well known to everyone, and everyone will not react much.

    Everyone looked at each other, and finally turned their attention to Sun Xiyi. The meaning was very clear, Brother Sun, you initiated what happened today, so you should say it first.

    When Sun Xiyi saw it, he knew that he couldn't do it if he didn't step forward first, so he stood up and said, "Everyone Liu, Sun is right."

    Liu Rushi took a look, smiled slightly and said: "It turns out to be Mr. Sun. I am still a little confused today as to who has the ability to gather so many scholars to support such a thing. It turns out to be Mr. Sun."  Brother Sun, please tell me if you have anything to say. If you can do it, I will never refuse!"

    Sun Xiyi's brows furrowed secretly at first, and then relaxed.  He smiled slightly and said: "Master Liu, our court will send a large army to Hangzhou in the near future. Seeing that the recovery of Hangzhou is imminent, I don't know.What are Liu's plans?  "

    As soon as Sun Xiyi said this, everyone around him couldn't help but secretly curse this guy's shamelessness. You are the Minister of Rites of the former Ming Dynasty. It has only been a few days since the former Ming Dynasty, and you have already embraced the lap of the current imperial court?  !  !  !
