The beach was already in a mess, and all the traps had been marked. Then, large ships were sailing down and anchored, and more small boats were put down. Hao Fenglou and Zheng He and a group of strong men went ashore one after another. Everyone unloaded boxes of food and gunpowder, and the musket team gathered together to continue to travel to Hoi'an County.

Hoi An had already been in chaos, many people had packed up their things and prepared to escape, and some deserters planned to refuse to defend, but the scene just now was really harmful. Who has any courage? Those who still have some courage were still unable to rush alone. When the musket team arrived, almost no one resisted. Everyone, birds and beasts scattered and ran away. Some of them were here, and the whole family returned to the mansion with their own private soldiers and asked people to close the door. They were worried and worried, not knowing whether they should resist stubbornly. The whole mansion was in chaos, and the crying of women and children was endless.

But what greeted them was quiet, surprisingly quiet.

The Duke of Qinghua Ruan Jian knew that there was nowhere to escape. Hundreds of people from the Ruan family were here. Where could they escape? He couldn't help feeling desolate. He thought that he was an old minister of the Chen family and had great military achievements. The Ruan family had been here for two hundred years, which was an important barrier to the south of the Chen family. The family had risen and fall over the past two hundred years. I didn't expect that today would be completely declining and there would be no possibility of resurrection.

While he regretted it in his lobby, he called a few sons. Seeing these newborn calfs who were not afraid of tigers and planned to take their private soldiers out of the house for a last try, Ruan Jian squinted his eyes and couldn't help but shed tears.

Taking a deep breath, he said, "This rebellion is wrong because of being a father, and it has nothing to do with you, Ruan Xiong. You are the eldest son and were ordered to be the commander of the Northern Army by the fake king Chen Tianli. Are you afraid of death?"

Ruan Xiong is a strong man, about thirty years old, looking rebellious. He said, "My son is not afraid of death."

"Okay, don't be afraid of death." Ruan Jian said, "You can't live anymore, but your brothers want to survive, and the blood of the Ruan family cannot be broken, so..." He looked at the other sons and said, "You tied up your father and your brother to surrender, and you said that you were deceived by Chen Tianli for your father and your brother. You were crazy and dared to fight against the heavenly soldiers. Your sins were unforgivable. Your heart was towards the Ming Dynasty. As for whether the Ming Dynasty could forgive the sins, it depends on luck. I hope... I hope the family's incense can continue. Come, you can do it."

The other sons were startled, looked at each other, and burst into tears, saying, "Dad, I would rather go out and fight with Han Gouzi."

"Fight? What to fight? Who is willing to fight? Today's battle. I only know what a canfly is to shake a tree, and only know what a mantis is to block a chariot. Although I have never tasted the rain and dew in the heavens, I really tasted the wrath of thunder. Today's battle is not the crime of war. It's just that this small country, Yelang is arrogant and does not know that the sky is high and the earth is to stop. Now that things have come, don't talk too much, come with ropes, don't say anything more, and say it's unfilial. The ancestor's ancestral hall is here. Do you want those officers and soldiers to come and destroy all the spirit cards of the ancestors? Now, father and your brother are thieves, you are soldiers, what are you waiting for?"

These sons just knelt on the ground, dared not let out, and they just cried.

However, the eldest son Ruan Xiong pulled out the knife and said, "Since I refuse to take it, I will commit suicide. You raise your head to apologize." After that, just as he was about to thrust the knife, he was hugged by several brothers. Ruan Xiong threw the knife and stomped his feet, and said angrily: "I only hate that I was encouraged by that boy Chen Tianli. If I had known this, how could I still be today?"

So everyone hugged their heads and cried. Someone came over to the female family in the family and cried so loudly. The private soldiers in the mansion had long lost their other thoughts. Many people fled directly, and many people were cleaning up the details.

And at this moment, what is coming finally came.

Bang bang bang bang...

A rushing knock on the door sounded.

The concierge did not dare to open it, and the others escaped.

Bang bang...

The knock on the door remains the same.

The concierge shrank and finally opened the door latch.

Then, a group of personal troops rushed in, and someone shouted: "Haifanghou has arrived, Eunuch Zheng has arrived."

The personal soldiers immediately stood upside down like a javelin.

Hao Fenglou and Zheng He walked slowly in as they walked in in a leisurely garden.

In the mansion, many people quietly poked their heads out from the screen wall and corners, and were all frightened. At this time, even those who wanted to escape had nowhere to escape.

Hao Fenglou held his hands behind his back and whispered to Zheng He. He followed two guards and came in rushingly. Hao Fenglou waved to the gatekeeper. The gatekeeper stepped forward tremblingly. Hao Fenglou smiled and said, "I wonder if your master is here?"

The concierge dared not answer.

Hao Fenglou smiled and said, "Aren't the person there?"

The concierge then said, "It's here, it's in the lobby."

Hao Fenglou nodded and said, "I'm going to report it, so I said that Hao Fenglou of Lang Son asked to see General Ruan."

The concierge entered like a flash.

When he heard the report in the lobby, several Ruan family father and son looked at each other, and Ruan Xiong couldn't help but say, "Is there any trick?"

Ruan Jian smiled bitterly and said, "It's a blessing or not a disaster, it's a disaster. Now there's nothing to say. Let's just stand up and welcome the guests with your father."

With a command, several people rushed to the middle gate, led by Ruan Jian, and saw Hao Fenglou standing in the gatehouse, holding his hands behind his back, admiring the structure of the building.

Ruan Jian gritted his teeth and said, "I have seen the Marquis of Haifang."

Hao Fenglou didn't even care, but smiled and said, "No need to be polite. Your house is good, it's a bit as exquisite as a Jiangnan villa. Sure enough, Annan and I were originally a family. Look at the archway, huh... 'Learn first and then minister', what? The Ruan family actually has a Jinshi?"

Ruan Jian didn't know what the hell was about Hao Fenglou, but now he didn't dare to be stubborn and couldn't help saying: "Yes, the Ruan family has been practicing martial arts for generations, but there was an ancestor who loved studying. He was the second-class Jinshi in the Dading period and had this archway."

Hao Fenglou sighed: "I am from Songjiang. There are also a few Jinshi in Songjiang Mansion. The four words "learning first and then ministers" are also mentioned on the archway. It is based on the envy of people and their ancestors are virtuous."

Ruan Jian had no choice but to say, "Please come in and sit down."

This was a polite word, but Hao Fenglou responded and said, "I'm upset." After that, he went straight into the room with Zheng He. The musketeer behind him wanted to follow him, but Hao Fenglou stopped and shouted, "Let's guard here, I'm visiting friends, you don't have to guard you."

After saying that, Hao Fenglou walked in with his hands behind his back without any fear.

When Ruan Jian saw this, suspicion flashed through his eyes and hurriedly followed his sons.

When he arrived at the lobby, Ruan Jian said, "Mr. Marquis invites you to sit down."

Hao Fenglou shook his head and said, "No, how can you stop the master?" After that, he pulled the chair and sat on the left, while Zheng He sat on the right with a smile. Ruan Jian had to sit on the master's seat and leaned his body sideways. Obviously, he felt something was wrong. The sons stood obediently on the side, not daring to show up.

Hao Fenglou couldn't help but sigh: "Look, when I came in from here, I almost mistakenly thought that I had returned to Songjiang and looked at the calligraphy and paintings on the wall, as well as the table and chairs. I have been away from other villages for several years and have never been to visit relatives. It's really a concern."

This sentence means something, and Hao Fenglou said again: "I have heard that General Ruan's Gao Yi has never visited him. My father has also admired Daming for a long time. When he came to Huian this time, he once instructed him that he had a letter and asked him to pass it to the general."

He actually took out a letter from his sleeve, and Ruan Jian's eldest son Ruan Xiong hurriedly picked it up and delivered it to his father.

Ruan Jian was shocked and did not dare to ask more questions, so he quickly opened the letter.

It was indeed a very standard letter. It claimed to be Lang San Hao Zheng, who said it was a friend of Mr. So-called that he had made friends with Mr. So-called. He once mentioned General Ruan. He knew that the Ruan family was a family of Jishan. Now that Hoi An rebellion, his son led troops to suppress the thieves, he still needed General Ruan to take care of him. Most of the people mentioned were polite, and the people mentioned were Ruan Jian's old acquaintances. One of them was his in-laws, which was the Chen family in the Qinghua family. Most of the wealthy Annan had marriages. But what Ruan Jian could not imagine was that he had really put in effort. It was reported that his in-laws went to Lang San, but he did not expect that there was still this relationship.

His eyes were full of suspicion, and he was shocked and puzzled. Could this Marquis of Lang San know that he had rebelled? No, it was impossible. Even if he didn't know, his son knew, but why did he still take out this letter?

Ruan Jian took a deep breath, carefully accepted the letter, and couldn't help but say, "What does the Marquis mean?"

Hao Fenglou smiled and said, "It's just that he is here to pay homage to General Ruan. My father has been accused of his reputation for it for a long time. Today I visit him on his behalf. Yes, there is another thing. Now Chen Tianli has been taken by me. He has rebelled against my Ming Dynasty and has a great crime. He will be sent to the capital and will be cut into pieces. But I know that Chen Tianli has been deceived and has held many people to rely on. At that time, there will be many rumors, saying that most of the wealthy families in the south of Annan have with him.

It's related, but I don't believe that General Ruan is in Cao's camp. If the court asks about it, then I can say that the general is just obedient to Chen Tianli in secret, but dealing with him in secret. He also sent private messages with Lang San to find out the many deployments of the rebels. If it weren't for the general's information, how could my departure this time be so smooth? Well, I've said it all, there are so many things to do here, so I'll leave first."

When Ruan Jian heard this, he immediately understood.

His mind was buzzing, and he couldn't figure out why he was polite. Of course he knew what the Hao family meant, which meant that his crime of raiding and extermination of the family would be eliminated from then on.

Ruan Jian couldn't help but stand up, not knowing what to do for a moment.
