Chapter Thirty-Three E-Niang
Dalang and Erlang were young, and his father-in-law specifically instructed Xunyi to take good care of him. At the same time, he ordered Ding Xiaogong to teach them martial arts. When he was a little older, he would choose a good student of riding and shooting. It is necessary to train them as brave men of the Ming Emperor's personal army, so that there would be successors to defeat the great cause of Jiannu.
In the eyes of outsiders, this arrangement is really a matter of the father-in-law treating the two Jianzhou boys as their biological sons. Although the subordinates are puzzled, it is not very strange. After all, Eunuch Wei is an eunuch in the palace and has no descendants. It is normal for human beings to accept a few adopted sons to inherit the family tradition.
It’s just that killing a father and taking a son is a cold no matter how you look at it.
Moreover, will these two kids avenge their father when they become adults?
The loyal subordinates such as Hu Quan and others tactfully reminded their father-in-law of the consequences of doing so.
"Why can't we do it?"
The father-in-law laughed and didn't care about it, which made his subordinates confused. He didn't know which of these "Eight Kings" was? Could it be the Eight Sage Kings of the Song Dynasty?
Thinking of the demeanor of the Eight Kings and the power of his adopted sons, my father-in-law was in the hot spot and suddenly ordered the camp of the Ming Imperial Army on the day after he accepted Zhao Butai and Oboi as his adopted sons.
"The soldiers and civilians in the forts, but the youngest sons in the family are less than ten years old, they all ask them to come to our youth camp. We care about their food, their drinks, their reading, their literacy, their strength and martial arts, their future, and they will serve the emperor in the future, and will shine for the family and glorify their ancestors... The soldiers and civilians, regardless of their background, ask us to take care of them, and they can also use their lives well. Wouldn't that be wonderful..."
Whoever dares to violate the orders of my father-in-law will be executed soon.
The Jurchens surrendered soldiers were reluctant to part with their children, so who would be willing to be thrown into the oil pan? They also knew that the Ming army made such arrangements clearly to take their children as hostages to prevent them from defecting. But I was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the
The Jurchens handed over the children, and the Han people Aha even rushed to the forefront.
In a few days, the youth camp was established, with more than 100 Jurchen children and more than 200 Han children entering the camp. Some children were only one or two years old and were really young, so they could not be divided into children's camps again and then entered the youth camp after they were eight years old. This is still the Dankuan Dianbao. If it is carried out, when it is returned to Yizhou, the youth camp can accept more than a thousand children.
My father-in-law attached great importance to this matter and specially selected more than 100 Han people and Jurchen women to take care of these children. Because he was busy with "relocation", my father-in-law couldn't make detailed arrangements, so he asked the young camp to move south with He Shiyi's troops.
The father-in-law was in charge of the evacuation operation to ensure the safety of the evacuation operation.
Thanks to the benefits of backward communication, my father-in-law can still live happily for a while in Luan.
He had nothing to do, and his subordinates were sent out to "sweep". His biggest day was to lie on a chair on the top of the city and look at the thick black smoke in the distance.
I don’t know why, but the feeling of setting fires made my father-in-law very happy. Perhaps it was because he was caught by the public and was fined and detained when he was a child in his previous life.
Now, he has become a "public" and who dares to punish him or who dares to detain him?
To be honest, in this Kuandian, Eunuch Wei is the emperor!
Unfortunately, such happy time is destined not to last long. At most, my father-in-law will have to be covered with a bed and leave after half a month.
Although he is a man of no kindness, his willpower is not too strong. If the black-faced old man brought tens of thousands of cavalry to the city and gave two choices and sincerely persuaded him to surrender, he would be able to kneel down if he didn't do it well.
So, for his dignity, he arranged a way out early.
On that day, my father-in-law was still closing his eyes at the top of the city to rest. After sleeping for an hour, he looked up at the sky. The sun was still very high, and he couldn't help but be bored, so he called Dalang and Erlang to call him.
Since he is an adopted son, he will naturally be with his father-in-law and cultivate his feelings well. After the personal guard brought the two brothers, the father-in-law became more and more happy as he looked at them. The two brothers were so crazy and very cute.
Suddenly, he thought of something, quickly patted his head, cursed him in a daze, then raised his hand and called his two adopted sons to his side with a smile, and then asked them to kneel down, and then asked his personal guard to hand him the sword.
The younger Aobai never felt anything, but his brother Zhao Butai was so scared that his face was pale. He knelt on the ground and kept kowtowing: "Dad, please spare my life, please spare my life!"
Seeing his brother like this, Obai became scared and he also kowtowed and shouted for his life.
Ding Xiaogong, who was beside him, smiled grimly, thinking that his father-in-law has awakened and wants to destroy his "father" for justice. That's right, it's okay to accept adopted sons, at least he can accept children from the Han people. What's the point of taking a kid from Jianzhou? Haven't my father-in-law heard of the Three Kingdoms and don't know what Dong Zhuo's fate will happen?
"Oh?" My father-in-law was also surprised, "Why is my son like this? When did Dad say he wanted to harm you?"
"Dad..."
Zhao Butai looked at the big knife in his father-in-law's hand in panic.
"oh?"
The father-in-law laughed, then put down the knife, and asked Zhao Butai and Obai in harmony, "Dad asked you, are you different from Dad?"
"different?"
The two children were stunned. They really didn't know what the difference between themselves and their father, but they knew that the high-ranking official of the Ming Dynasty in front of them was not their mama. However, no matter how ignorant the two children were, they would not dare to say this.
“This is different.”
My father-in-law pointed to his own head, and then to the small braids left on the brains of the two brothers.
The two brothers touched the little braids on their heads in confusion, expressing their discomfort.
"Dalang, stick your head over."
The child is still young, and my father-in-law can't make any sense. While holding the knife, he kindly signaled Zhao Butai to stretch his little head over.
Zhao Butai was very scared, but he still stretched his head over.
The father-in-law raised his knife and fell, and the small braid was immediately cut off by Qi's roots. Then he threw the knife in front of Zhao Butai and asked him to cut off the small braid from his younger brother Aobai's head.
Zhao Butai hesitated for a while and trembled and cut off his younger brother's braid.
He held the braids of the two adopted sons in his hands, and his father-in-law touched the brothers' heads with satisfaction, showing a father-like smile: "Okay, so we will be the same in the future."
He looked up and signaled Ding Xiaogong to take the two brothers down. Obai got up and walked obediently to Master Ding's place. Zhao Butai hesitated for a moment and asked weakly: "Dad, where have I, Ama and Mother?"
My father-in-law didn't tell Dalang the answer, and a faint smile appeared on his face.
Ding Xiaogong took two steps forward and looked at Zhao Butai coldly. The child immediately lowered his head in fear, and pulled his younger brother down the city wall silently without saying a word.
"Find out the mothers of these two cubs and kill them."
