Chapter 2 Chapter 2 Roadkill

The murderers who assassinated Ha Sihu were obviously Long Dun and Samu Zhan! From Ha Sihu's descriptions from the population, Nurhachi roughly guessed the situation at that time: After Long Dun and Samzhan agreed on a poisonous plan, they sent someone to invite Ha Sihu to Long Dun's house for a banquet. His Ha Sihu took only a few followers and set out on the road; when he walked halfway, he suddenly heard a few screams not far away, so Ha Sihu ordered his followers to check what happened, and stayed where he was. Waiting for the news; but when he was standing alone by the roadside waiting for the news, a group of sneak attackers who had already ambushed by the roadside released cold arrows from behind him...

After reaching the conclusion of this judgment, Nurhachi, who was so angry that his eyes almost burst into flames, immediately flew on his horse with a weapon, and rushed all the way to Long Dun's house to find him for an argument. Unexpectedly, this trip was in vain, Long Dun's house was empty, not only was there no one there, even all the decent things had been removed. "This guy must have guessed that we would come to him..." E Yidu cursed angrily: "What a cunning thing!" "It's useless to run away, I will definitely catch him back and kill Ha Sihu!"

Gritting his teeth, Nurhachi said, he punched the wall with his fist; he was so strong that the punch actually punched a hole in the wall made of mud and grass. E Yidu's anger also had no place to vent because of Long Dun's escape. Seeing that Nurhachi had punched a hole in the wall, he also punched the wall; the two punched hard. After hitting the wall, it didn't take long for a wall to be smashed, the wooden pillars were broken, and the whole fell down; as soon as the wall fell, the roof also collapsed. a ruin. The two rushed out before the house collapsed, and many nearby neighbors had already heard the news and came to watch. Seeing that it was the two of them who destroyed the house, no one dared to talk too much, only a clan uncle of Nurhachi Dun came out to smooth things over and invited the two to sit at his home.

Because he wanted to ask him about Long Dun's whereabouts, Nurhachi accepted his invitation.However, Lendun's original intention was to advise Nurhachi: "Go home quickly! It's too dangerous for the two of you to be alone outside - there are many people who want to kill you now! Killing Hasihu first is to make you less A helper—Long Dun told everyone that you have won several battles and conquered several cities, and your strength is getting stronger and stronger. If you don’t kill you now, you will eat all the cities in the future "A lot of people believed his words and followed him, so be careful!"

Hearing his sincerity, Nurhachi expressed his sincere gratitude to this good man, so he said: "Thank you for telling me this-but I am not a timid person. Long Dun and Samzhan conspired to kill me Brother-in-law, I will not let them go; tell me, Longton, where has he fled?" Seeing his resolute attitude, Lendun knew that he couldn't be persuaded, so he had no choice but to tell him: "Before Long Dun left, he didn't say clearly where he was going, but he took a lot of people with him at the same time. It seems that He went to Samzhan's place!" Nurhachi sneered, "I'll go find them!"

Lendun quickly shook his hands to advise him: "In my opinion, Samzhan has gathered at least several hundred people, so don't rush in!" Nurhachi said indifferently: "Don't worry, I won't show off my bravery——I will go with hundreds of people!" As he spoke, he thanked Lendon and took his leave; on the way home, he had already started to think about all kinds of matters to attack Samzhan in his mind. After returning home, he went to see Ni Chuhe first; the heartbroken Ni Chuhe was crying, and he refused to stop no matter how much he persuaded him, let alone eat or drink; Nurhachi watched her face and eyes sunken from crying, and thought of her becoming a widow not long after she was newly married, and felt sore in his heart, let alone saying anything to comfort her. She sat with her silently for a while, and had no choice but to back out.

Of course, Ha Sihu's funeral must be dealt with immediately. He didn't suspect his surname, so he put Ha Sihu's body in his home, prepared a coffin, chose the best clothes for him to bury him, and held a funeral ceremony. A grand funeral was held. When the hanging was held, brothers Changshu and Yangshu from Zhanhezhai heard the news and came to hang the sacrifice. After a few people met, they recalled that not long ago they fought side by side with Ha Sihu and captured the cities of Tulun and Jiaban. In the past, there was infinite sadness in my heart; looking at Ni Chuhe's original beautiful appearance, he became haggard because of the blow of this incident, and the sadness in the atmosphere increased a lot; in this case, on the contrary, It was Nurhachi who didn't want everyone to sink into a low-key mood, and deliberately thought of other topics to distract everyone's attention.

Therefore, after the funeral, he immediately proposed to everyone a plan to attack Samzhan; sure enough, on the premise of "revenge for Ha Sihu", everyone's emotions became positive, and the more they talked, the more passionate and indignant they were. I can't wait to find Long Dun and Samuzhan immediately... The conversation lasted until midnight before they came to a conclusion, and each went to bed; however, for some reason, as soon as Nurhachi put his head on the pillow, he felt as if there was a figure in front of him. He opened his eyes and looked carefully, but there was nothing. No; Nurhachi became suspicious: "Could it be the soul of Ha Sihu who came back?"

He simply got up with his clothes on, lit the lamp, and took a closer look. Only then did he clearly determine that it was not Ha Sihu, but someone outside his house. The moonlight shone on that person, and his figure was reflected on the window paper. someone. So, he quietly went out of the room, went around to the window, and suddenly found that the man was Yang Shu. Yang Shu seemed to be in deep thought, standing alone, even Nurhachi walked behind him, he didn't even notice. Nurhachi patted him on the shoulder and asked, "Why are you here alone in a daze? What are you thinking about?"

Yang Shu was frightened by this slap and trembled suddenly. He came back to his senses and saw Nurhachi, but his face turned red before he could speak; He had a baby face at first, and he couldn't hide his blushing thoughts; after hesitating for a long time, he said to Nurhachi with a firm and resolute attitude as if he mustered up his courage: "I want to ask you You make a request—please marry Nichuhe to me!" Now it was Nurhachi's turn to be startled. He never expected that Yang Shu stood outside his window for a long time, thinking about this matter; After a while, he asked seriously: "Is this a decision you made after thinking about it for a long time?"

Yang Shu nodded and said, "Yes." Then, her face flushed, and she whispered: "She used to mend the cracks on my new robe, and I would also like to mend the cracks for her when she lost her husband—I will treat her well and take good care of her!" Nurhachi looked at him fixedly, his round baby face showed sincere affection, which made Nurhachi feel hot; after a moment of silence, he let out a long breath slowly and said: "I only have this one relative." My younger sister has loved her the most since she was a child—brother and husband are two different kinds of relatives, and they can give her different love and care; I certainly hope that she has both a brother and a husband—but now she just suffered In the pain of losing her husband, it may not take three or two days before she is willing to remarry!" Yang Shu said: "It doesn't matter, I will wait patiently." Nurhachi nodded and said to him: "That's good - you may wish to accompany her when you are free, and I will deal with it when the time is right!" As he spoke, he patted Yang Shu's shoulder, showing a smile that had disappeared for many days, and said to him, "I sincerely wish you all!" The two went back to the house side by side. The next day, Nurhachi took the opportunity to tell Zaqing about Yang Shu's marriage proposal, and asked her to persuade Ni Chuhe to remarry when she had time; : "No wonder——I've been bored with this matter for a long time. Usually, when Yang Shu sees his sister, he always blushes for no reason. It turns out that he likes her in his heart..." Hearing this, Nurhachi didn't react at all, and walked away after being silent for a while, but his heart was so mixed that he couldn't tell what it was like—it had been a long time, and he had never thought of the word "love" in his heart. But now, because of the subtle relationship between Ni Chuhe, Ha Sihu, and Yang Shu, the long-buried longing in his heart was touched. He thought of Xue'er, and the days when we were always together, love, melancholy, and hatred came to his heart together, which once again caused him unbearable pain. Feel locked into the bottom of my heart. "Avenging Ha Sihu is the top priority..." His rationality reminded himself: "After catching those two murderers, Pearl's heart can be persuaded!" He understood Ni Chuhe's personality, now she doesn't eat or drink and cries all day long, the situation can only be improved if the murderer is caught; so he sent two teams, one group to inquire about the situation of Nikanwailan, A group is responsible for reconnaissance Long Dun and Samu Chan situation. On the other hand, he also strengthened the defense of Jianzhou Zuowei——Long Dun and Samzhan used all kinds of methods to make them come out, and he did not rule out the possibility that they would preemptively attack Jianzhou Zuowei. Sure enough, before he was ready to send troops to attack Longdun and Samuzhan, something unexpected happened again. It was a night in April, because he always slept late, and this night because he and Shu Erhaqi calculated the existing population and livestock numbers of Jianzhou Zuowei, and even estimated the city area in the summer season. In the trade, how many items can be sold, how much income can be obtained, and how many items can be exchanged for? It doesn’t matter if you sell more to them; you can also sell more cattle, sheep, and animal skins, but don’t sell horses. We are afraid that we will run out of things that are useful for war! Silk and other things, only Being able to make clothes for women is not of much use, so try to buy as little as possible—what you need to buy more is pig iron, which must be used to make weapons, so try your best to buy as much as possible!" The two of them discussed these matters carefully for a long time, so the time for going to bed was delayed a lot, but his vigilance was not slightly extinguished because of the late sleep. What I felt was the subtle sound coming into my ears from the outdoors. So, he got up quietly, put on his clothes, took a knife and a bow and arrow, went out, went up to the roof, and hid by the chimney to see what happened. It was very dark, and he couldn't see anything at first, but after a while he felt someone coming towards him; he held his breath, and waited until the person got close, and then took advantage of his unpreparedness to strike heavily with the back of his knife Hitting him on the shoulder, he hit him straight with a "snap", and the man immediately yelled "ah", then turned over and rolled off the roof with a "pu" sound, and fell heavily on the ground. Luo Han, the guard staying by the door, heard the sound, turned over, and rushed out the door, just in time for the man to fall to the ground, he caught up with him with a stride. Nurhachi also took advantage of the situation and went out of the house, and ordered Luohan to tie up the man. "What else is there to tie?" Luo Han asked in surprise, "Isn't it over if you kill him with a knife?" However, Nurhachi decided not to kill the man after thinking about it for a while; so he deliberately asked the man, "Come to my house in the dark in the middle of the night, do you want to steal my cow?" The man immediately responded smoothly: "Yes——I'm here to steal cattle!" Nurhachi scolded him a few words: "A strong man who doesn't do his job properly sneaks into someone's house in the middle of the night to steal cattle. It's outrageous. If I catch you next time, I'll blame you if I don't cut off your hand!" As he spoke, he ordered Luohan to let the man go; Luohan looked at him in confusion and said, "Don't believe his nonsense, he doesn't look like he came to steal cattle—I think he looks like an assassin!" However, Nurhachi waved his hand and interrupted him: "I said, let him go this time, and cut off his hand if he dares to come again next time!" Luo Han had no choice but to release the man according to his order; when the man had gone far, Nurhachi said to Luo Han, "Why didn't I know that he was an assassin? It's just that he didn't know me personally, and of course he didn't know me." What kind of hatred would exist; why did he come to assassinate me? It was just at the instigation of others—since the mastermind was not him, what's the point of killing him? He will go back and let the masterminds know that I am not easy to be assassinated, so let's get rid of this idea in the future!" Luo Han suddenly realized: "You are really thoughtful!" Nurhachi went back to the house side by side with him, and said to him: "If this man was sent by Long Dun and the others, we will meet him on the battlefield soon, and it will not be too late to kill him at that time; if it is not for Long Dun They sent them, so the mastermind may have just misunderstood me, and there is no deep hatred, but once he is killed, the hatred will be settled; the strength of Jianzhou Zuowei is not strong at present, the fewer enemies, the better !" Hearing this, Luo Han was even more convinced, and he said sincerely: "Yes, I understand!" But Nurhachi still warned him repeatedly: "Although the assassin was driven away tonight, there is no guarantee that the assassin will not come again in the future; we still have to be more careful in the future!" His foresight was indeed not bad, and a month later, things happened again. He is used to going to bed late, and he is used to being very careful before going to bed. This night, he saw a newly hired maid, who was still awake late at night, sitting by the stove with a lamp, and the light flickered on and off. It flickered several times. He immediately became alert, and when he returned to the room, he not only did not sleep, but also wore short armor under his clothes, raised his knife and bow, walked out of the room as if he was going to the bathroom, and walked around every room. At the gate, he went to the courtyard and observed in the dark. Sure enough, there seemed to be a figure moving by the fence next to the gate, so he drew his bow and prepared. When the person moved closer, he swished. With a bang, an arrow shot away. It's a pity that the sky is not beautiful, and there is wind everywhere, which made his arrow rattle like tigers and tigers as soon as it was fired, which made the man take precautions. He dodged the arrow and only shot through it. his clothes. The man was so frightened that he turned around and ran away. Nurhachi chased after him and shot the man in the foot with an arrow from behind. The people who were sleeping in the room were of course awakened by these sounds, and the men rushed out with weapons; seeing that Nurhachi had captured the assassin, Shuerhaqi immediately went up without any explanation and "slapped" the two The slap in the face made the corner of the man's mouth bleed, and he cursed: "I'm impatient to live, dare to come here to play wild - want to see the King of Hades? Don't be afraid that no one will send you..." Cursing, he drew out his saber and was about to chop off at the man; but Nurhachi stopped him, and asked the man himself, "What's your name?" "Yisu." The man replied. Nurhachi asked again: "Where are you from? What do you want to come to my place in the middle of the night?" Yisu lowered his head and refused to answer these two questions; Nurhachi stopped asking again, and said to Yisu casually: "No matter what your purpose is, now that you know it, it is impossible to succeed. In the future, don't try it lightly!" After saying this, Yisu lowered his head even lower, biting his lips with his teeth, not daring to make a sound; but Nurhachi unexpectedly ordered the guards: "Let him go!" He ordered so, and the guards of course obeyed; but Shuerhaqi yelled: "Why do you want to let go again? You let the assassin go last time, and this time it came again——If you don't kill once, Liwei , From now on, they will come to assassinate every day!" Nurhachi didn't want to argue with him, so he pretended not to hear his roar, but he kept shouting: "You are so timid and afraid, you dare not kill the assassin, sooner or later, let the assassin kill you! " The more he said the more inappropriate, An Feiyanggu couldn't help stretching out his hand and pulled his sleeve to signal him to stop talking; E Yidu calmly said to Nurhachi: "This Yisu looks familiar to me." , looks like someone from Dong E's tribe—it doesn't look like someone sent by Long Dun!" Nurha Chidao: "No matter which department he is from, as long as his behavior is not so serious that it is unforgivable, try not to kill people casually - if we want to do a great cause, we should form more allies and less enemies; more Besides, they are all Jurchens, so why kill him for a small mistake?" After saying this, he went back to the house and left everyone outside. Luohan also stated what he said when he let the assassin go last time. , E Yidu gave a thumbs up and said: "We followed him, and we didn't follow him at all—we are human beings, and Nurhachi is always more foresight and open-minded than others; He thinks deeply and thinks far, and he doesn't care much about how others treat him!"
