At the beginning of the 2017th year, although it was approaching March, the day did not mean to transfer warmth. The whistling north wind from the grasslands in the north of the desert rushed straight into Beijing with the rolling cold current and the rising snowflakes. The peach blossom snow in these March was like heavy snow in the snow, and it kept scattering heavy snow flying all over the sky day and night, swallowing the entire Beijing city.

But in just one night, the silver light inside and outside the capital was filled with silver light, and a layer of solid snow was formed on the ground with the previous snow. The biting coldness penetrated thousands of households. The newly-falling snow on the ground was stepped on by cars, horses and pedestrians, but when the biting north wind blew, it turned into a slippery ice path.

In the early morning, the double-horse harness that sold water to the city would be difficult at every step. Even though it finally arrived at the door of the house, although the water tank was covered with a layer of broken quilt, it was still a little frozen. Although the bucket of water was half less, the water in the capital was bitter, and the people had to drink it tightly with the frozen water. Maybe the snow would be heavy, and even the water would be gone. At that time, they could only sweep the snow on the roof.

Thick snow accumulates on the tiles of the house and the eaves of the treetops. Thousands of households in the capital are cleaning up the snow in the courtyards and passages. From time to time, they will use big brooms to sip hot air.

“It’s so cold this year!”

This year is indeed colder than in previous years. In fact, in the past few decades, it has become colder day by day.

Compared with ordinary people, the various yamen seem warmer. Although the yamen is not as warm as the palace, there is also a fire wall. Following the instructions of the adults, all the servants in the yamen have added enough firewood to drive away the chill from the cracks in the window.

Although the weather is so cold, this person's heart is a little colder than this cold.

Although the news that the emperor personally led the expedition really boosted the morale of the people. Although the emperor stationed in Jinan, the hundreds of thousands of troops were stationed in Shandong and Henan. In addition, the emperor issued an order to enlist tens of thousands of Mongolian cavalry from Mobei to Mobei, the morale of the people was naturally not as nervous as after Suqian's defeat.

Just wait for the beginning of spring next year...

Almost everyone believes that after the beginning of spring next year, when the Mongolian cavalry arrives, the 300,000 Manchu and Han army will go south, and the pirates in Jiangnan will be defeated. Everyone believes in this.

The people's hearts, which were in panic all day long, seemed to be pacified as the emperor went south.

However, just when people seemed to be determined, a sudden news came from the south - the pirates who were stole from the south of the Yangtze River actually wanted to liquidate the officials of the Qing Dynasty.

On February 13th, the so-called "King Yanping" issued an announcement - "If the official of the Qing Dynasty does not return to his hometown within three months, they will be traitors, lose their property and leave their family overseas."

From the imperial city to the streets and alleys, they were stunned by the news. Since Zheng Chenggong seized Jiangnan, all the officials from Jiangnan were panicked. They thought that no matter what, they would not have been able to attack their families like the Qing Dynasty.

But who would have thought that these people really started to fight?

First of all, it was Hou Fangyu who was liquidated, but he offered advice to Zhang Cunren to dig the Yellow River and drown millions of innocent compatriots. Although he had never been an official, he was exiled to nine clans for this crime, and thousands of people were exiled. For example, Chen Mingxia, who were impeached and died after surrendering to the Qing Dynasty for some reason, were also liquidated. More than 100,000 people in the Chen family were leaked. Even the first batch of people who were listed on the list of surrendered to the Qing Dynasty were killed in the past fifteen years.

After the news reached the capital, it suddenly caused a wave of unprecedented waves around the capital. Almost all Han officials were panicked. Several Han officials who were in Jiangnan and were even older were even more worried and anxious. As soon as they were sick, some Han officials from Jiangnan fled overnight. In the past few days, the Beijing officials in various departments watched one by one escape. This panic spread to the local area. At this time, many officials from Jiangnan were looking around there in panic.

Being an official for thousands of miles is just for wealth, but what if the clan is exiled to the wilderness overseas?

This time, people's hearts were even far from being defeated in Suqian. I don't know how many people have made up their minds when they are floating. Now, everyone is not busy with the official business at hand, but are talking about the future of the war.

Of course, they care more about their future.

The moment he entered the Ministry of Personnel's office, Jin Zhijun felt that someone occasionally looked at him. As we all know, as the Minister of Han of the Ministry of Personnel, he was from Wujiang, Jiangnan, and it had long been occupied by pirates. Now, the pirates are liquidated in such a way, what would he, the Minister of Han of the Ministry of Personnel, do?

Since Chen Mingxia and others were eliminated several years ago, although Jin Zhijun and others were not named as the Southern Party, they were also the backbone of Jiangnan officials. Many people were watching his every move. If he escaped, they might know how many people would abandon their posts and flee south.

"What, don't you have any serious business?"

Looking at the gazes that were cast on him around him, Jin Zhijun shouted loudly, and then walked into his own public housing with steady steps. After entering the public housing, his face, which seemed to be without any slight waves, suddenly changed its appearance and showed a bitter look.

"I don't know how many pairs of eyes are staring at me..."

He was so bitter in his heart, and Jin Zhijun said annoyed again.

"If I had known this, I would have written a letter to retire again last year. If I had returned home last year, would there be so many worries there?"

The reason why he said it was because he had requested to retire three years ago, but the emperor did not agree. Last year, he requested to retire and return home again, but he still had no approval. Later, because the pirates stole the south of the Yangtze River, he naturally did not mention this matter again. But who would have thought that the situation was changing, and now Zheng Ni started to fight against them, the Qing officials.

"If I go back to my hometown in Wujiang, will I really not be investigated?"

Jin Zhijun, who was tortured after Li Chuang surrendered to Beijing, naturally had some doubts about this, but he naturally would not compare Zheng Chenggong with Li Chuang's bandits. For him, what he cares about now is his own self-interest.

This is the case for surrendering and surrendering to Qing Dynasty.

But now Zheng Chenggong's "cutting off the fire from the cauldron" in Jiangnan has made Jin Zhijun feel anxious.

Isn’t it just for the Jin family to work hard for the hard work over the years?

But now Zheng Chenggong is liquidating like this in Jiangnan, not only will the Jin family's land and houses be investigated, but even hundreds of people in the Jin family will be exiled to Taiwan, located overseas.

"Taiwan, where is Taiwan?"

As if he remembered something, Kim Jeong took out a map. He looked at a corner on the map, but his brow was frowning.

"Taiwan, Taiwan... it's a place where you can transform into a foreign land. It's not that you want to kill the Jin family..."

As he murmured in his heart, the bitterness on Jin Zhijun's face became even stronger.

He wanted to escape, but he did not dare to escape. As the Minister of the Han Dynasty of the Ministry of Personnel, he knew very well that if he escaped now, he might not have waited for him to leave the capital, and the documents on the sea captain would be spread there. At that time, all he could wait for was a dead end!

For the emperor, the more he needed to kill the chicken for the monkey to see. Just like the Chen Mingxia family who had been exiled by the clan, the emperor admired his talents and knowledge at the end, but in the end he regarded him as a chicken.

Kim Zhijun didn't want to be that chicken, but he didn't want the hundreds of people in the Jin family to be exiled at least to be out of place.

It's difficult...

Just after Jin Zhijun's long sigh, a voice came from outside the door, his disciple Cheng Siyuan.

"Students have met the teacher!"

When Cheng Siyuan saluted respectfully, Jin Zhijun forced out a smile and said.

"I've come to Da, sit down."

He was quite impressed by this disciple. After asking him to sit down, he ordered the servants to take tea. When the servants got tea and left the public housing, he was about to invite him to drink tea, he heard him say.

"Students seem to have hidden worries between the teacher's eyebrows, but for that matter?"

This is the first time that an outsider mentioned this in front of Kim Jee-joon. When someone asked, Kim Jee-joon immediately said.

"I've thought about it with Dadu!"

Shaking his head, Kim Zhijun, who pretended to be calm, said.

"It's just a pirate's act of disrupting our morale. How could the army be distracted by the pirate's plan?"

The teacher's answer made Cheng Siyuan just smile slightly and did not continue to say it. He said after taking two sips of tea.

"I heard that when I was on the siege, there were a few people who were gone. I don't know if they were having an acute illness or..."

The disciple's words made Kim Zhijun just nodded slightly, and then said in a seemingly calm manner.

"These people are so short-sighted that they don't know how to serve your kindness. Alas, what a pity, what a pity..."

If they escaped, no one would pay attention. If they escaped themselves... they might cause any disturbances, but if they stayed here, what would the Jin family be? Even if the emperor conquered Jiangnan in the future and the Jin family was transferred to Taiwan, how could they come back? Even if they came back, how many people could come back alive?

"Actually, this is not a surprise. The Zheng thief took the family of our Qing officials as his home. Such a despicable act is extremely hateful. In panic, people will inevitably do something confused."

The disciple's official words with Huguang accent were heard in Jin Zhijun's ears, and his brows were slightly locked, and the dissatisfaction in his heart disappeared in an instant. After all, now, Huguang is still the territory of the Qing Dynasty, but Jiangnan and Jiangxi have long been occupied by pirates.

You are standing and talking without back pain!

Just as Kim Zhijun was complaining to the disciple in front of him, he heard him say it again.

"Teacher, the student heard that as soon as the day goes by today, Ge Lao Feng was invited to the palace by the empress dowager!"

What!

He opened his eyes wide, and Jin Zhijun's face suddenly changed, and he looked at Cheng Siyuan and said.
Chapter completed!
