Wanli 1592

Chapter 1161 Sun Shitai is not reconciled
There are too many good things on Hailong's store.

Not only is there a lot of things in the warehouse, but the military police of the Qin Army also discovered a large-scale underground cellar in the palace. It seems that Yang Yinglong is hiding not only on the ground, but also under the ground, and there are many things in it.

Zheng Ying kept sending people to count and pack them, and sent people to transport them down the mountain, preparing to decorate them and transport them back to the capital.

Because these things are very important, he has to watch them personally on the mountain. He also sent Gu Tan, the chief of staff, down the mountain to watch them. As soon as the two of them went up and down, they were busy with this matter. After all, there are so many Qin soldiers, no one is sure. They are all loyal ministers and good generals, and it is hard to say that there are really some tricks.

This forest is so big, there are all kinds of birds, they are all loyal ministers, good generals, heroic and righteous men, I am afraid they are not living in a dream.

During this period, Zheng Ying also received a somewhat special captive, Sun Shitai.

Sun Shitai didn't die, and he didn't commit suicide. Although Tian Yufeng also gave Sun Shitai a luxury suicide gift package before he died, it was useless for Sun Shitai.

It's not that he didn't think about using it, it's just that when he lifted the glass of poisoned wine and was about to put it in his mouth, a strong feeling of unwillingness suddenly emerged in his heart.

Sun Shitai had read poetry and books since he was a child, and was well-known in the village. He was going to take the imperial examination, but he was framed by others and had to go in a different way. His talent was restricted because of his status.

Although he wanted to help Yang Yinglong get out of the cage, he still couldn't really trust him. He gave Yang Yinglong a plan, but Yang Yinglong didn't use it.

How unwilling and sad to be branded as a rebel and about to die before one's talents have been revealed and put to use...

Sun Shitai hates, he is angry, he resents!

I hate the impermanence of this world, the injustice of the world, and the ill-fated fate.

However, the matter has come to this point, and the sound of the Qin army's cannons shouting to kill is heard. If he does not commit suicide, he will be killed by the Qin army.

Thinking of this, his heart was overwhelmed, and he raised the wine glass to pour it into his mouth, but when the wine reached his mouth, he hesitated again, unwilling again, and unwilling again.

When death is approaching, it is not so easy to go to death safely, people always have the upper hand in the desire to survive, and at this moment, no matter how much Sun Shitai fooled himself, he could not successfully fool him.

He finally discovered that he didn't want to die because he was unwilling, but because he was afraid of death.

In this way, he fell into a fierce inner struggle, and after that, when Qin Jun broke in, he still didn't put the glass of wine into his mouth, so he was captured without a fight, became a prisoner of Qin Jun, and lost to the own desire to survive.

When the general of the Qin army learned of his identity, he reported the matter to Zheng Ying. Zheng Ying knew about the double reed singing between Xiao Ruxun and Wang Xiangqian before the war.

In order to get rid of Sun Shitai, Wang Xiangqian sent letters to Bozhou several times, even tempting him with the position of Sichuan chief envoy, and finally succeeded in alienating the suspicious Yang Yinglong, abandoned Sun Shitai, and blocked his freedom. Naturally, within a month, Yang Yinglong was defeated.

Of course, Zheng Ying felt that even if Sun Shitai made a move, it would be difficult to fight against the elite Qin army, but the time of defeat may be longer or shorter, but even the emperor finds it difficult to get rid of people who need to be the first to get rid of them before they can enter the army safely. lamp.

Having figured this out, Zheng Ying took time out and ordered to meet Sun Shitai.

The soldiers guarding Sun Shitai reported that Sun Shitai ate every meal cleanly, and there was not a single grain of rice left. Sometimes he would feel hungry when the meal was not delivered to him, so he asked for food, and asked to take a bath and change his clothes. clothing.

As soon as Zheng Ying heard it, he knew that this person definitely didn't want to die.

When Zheng Ying saw Sun Shitai, Sun Shitai was clean and spotless, his clothes were clean, his hair was clean, his complexion was rosy, and he looked good. He didn't have the consciousness of rebellion at all.

"Sun Shitai, right?"

Zheng Ying asked slowly.

"It's the student. The student Sun Shitai has seen the general."

Sun Shitai bowed his hands neither humble nor overbearing.

"student?"

"Students are former Ming scholars."

"Oh, scholar."

Zheng Ying nodded: "Since you are a well-known scholar, I heard that you are still Mr. Wang Yangming's fellow villager. How did you come to Bozhou to serve as military advisor for Yang Ni?"

Sun Shitai didn't intend to hide it, so he said: "After the student got the honor of a scholar, he took the local examination in his hometown several times, but failed. He deeply felt that his hometown was too competitive, so he asked his family friend to arrange to go to Shuntianfu, Beizhili to take the exam. Opportunity.

The student wanted to take advantage of the convenience of the North and South Rankings to be admitted to Juren and support his family so that he would not starve his family. However, the matter was framed by a fellow townsman who was jealous of his convenience. Exam in Shuntianfu.

At that time, the weather was cold, and the money was spent. The students were starving and destitute in Shuntian Mansion. They were stared at everywhere and suffered so much. When they were about to die of starvation, they met someone Yang Yinglong sent to the capital. After talking, they learned that Yang Yinglong was recruiting people with military knowledge to go south to join the broadcast. The students had nowhere to go, and when their heads got hot, they agreed to go south to join the broadcast. "

Zheng Ying smiled, and said: "You scholars are also interesting. If you can't pass the exam in your hometown, you go to another place to take the exam? Is this also feasible?"

"The general is joking. Nanzhili and Fujian are the most difficult imperial examinations in the world. The students are unfortunate. They are in a strong imperial examination province. If they devote themselves to the imperial examination, they may be able to pass the imperial examination. However, students prefer military affairs and spend their energy. Read the military book.

After being admitted as a scholar, he suffered repeated setbacks and failed to pass the Juren exam. The rules are clear, and only those who pass the exam can live a good life. The student's family urgently needs the support of the student, so he has no choice but to take the road of trickery.

The level of students in the northern provinces is not high, the competition is not strong, and there is the convenience of the north and south rankings. Students think that if they can take the exam in the north, it will not be difficult to pass the exam. Many people have done this in the past, and it has a long history. "

Sun Shitai explained honestly.

Zheng Ying nodded.

"You were desperate and destitute in Shuntian Mansion. When you met someone from Yang Yinglong, you grabbed the straw and came to Bozhou, right?"

"Exactly."

"Didn't you intend to come to Banzhou?"

"General..."

Sun Shitai showed bitterness: "Although the students are dull, they are also scholars. If they are not in a desperate situation, how can they come to Bozhou and degenerate?"

"student……"

Zheng Ying shook his head: "After that, why did you give advice to Yang Yinglong, help him make things worse, and even offer advice to attack Sichuan when he rebelled, and do such a rebellious thing? You are blatantly opposing Daqin, His Majesty the Emperor is very angry."

Sun Shitai said again: "Being entrusted by others and being loyal to others, students are just doing their own duties, and they are only doing their duties."

"Do your duty?"

Zheng Ying said: "Is it the king's land in the whole world, is it the king's minister on the shore of the land, the former Ming has perished, and the world is now the Great Qin's world, Yang Yinglong gathered troops to rebel under the banner of revenge for the former Ming, that is rebellion , You betrayed the righteousness of the country for a small duty, and you still say it so high-sounding?"

Zheng Ying immediately uttered all the special words and phrases that he had written down that he had been taught by the clerks, and Sun Shitai was stunned when he said them.
