Bian Sai and Wu Meicun have slept in the nest many times, and they have understood Wu Meicun in their bones, and they know each other's thoughts and thoughts clearly with every look and movement. She is a sensitive woman, the unbearable experience makes her attitude towards others beyond ordinary sensitivity, her humble background makes her ashamed of herself, makes her more self-esteem, she does not dare to face the reality, and escapes the possible harm in advance.

For a long time, Bian Sai was very aware of the difference between his status and Wu Meicun, and knew that it was impossible for Wu Meicun to marry her. But after this time together, she really fell in love with this man, hopelessly liked. At the same time, she also found that this man really liked her and was fascinated by her, which was the confidence for her to dare to make this appeal.

Now Wu Meicun's joke makes her understand that the relationship between the two is not deep enough to give everything at will, her charm is not enough to make Wu Meicun give up her career and the image of a righteous gentleman, not enough for Wu Meicun to cross the gap between the professional identities of the two, she is self-inflicted, and her requirements are excessive.

Marriage is a touchstone, which can make all the charms and spirits appear, can expose all dirty ideas, can try out what is most important in Wu Meicun's heart, and can try whether Wu Meicun is really here or playing.

Bian Sai's impulse made her open her heart and confide in her, but what she got was Lang's heart, and her self-esteem was seriously hurt.

Self-esteem is a terrible thing. Everyone wants self-esteem, and maintaining self-esteem comes at a cost, and it takes the ability to maintain it. Since ancient times, the poor and the cheap are good friends, the rich and the noble are brothers, the rich can be expensive, the poor must be cheap, you can change the mentality of self-confidence and self-improvement, the poor can think that they are spiritually rich, but you can never change people's contempt for you, you can't let the society stop beating you, you can't let reality wear down your self-esteem a little bit.

Therefore, not everyone is qualified to have self-esteem. The premise of self-esteem is to survive, and if you want to survive, you must give. What can the poor give? It can only be what the rich are not willing to give, such as the body, such as hard work, such as self-esteem.

Before Bian Sai, Dong Xiaowan also encountered self-esteem problems, but the two dealt with it differently. Xiao Wan has received a professional education, has suffered from the warmth and coldness of the world, has suffered any hardship, and has suffered any grievances, and has long been accustomed to the cold eyes and unsatisfactory in the world.

And Bian Sai was a proud lady before her debut, and she has been sought after since her debut, she has not been beaten by any wind and rain, her face is thin, and her self-esteem is strong, which is the capital of her fame, and it is also an insurmountable character defect, enjoying her blessings and suffering her sins at the same time.

One step forward is happiness, and one step back is the abyss. After being rejected by Wu Meicun, Bian Sai chose to retain her self-esteem, and she backed down. At the same time, she made up her mind to spend the rest of her life to regain the self-esteem she had lost here in Mao Bijiang.

Wu Meicun gave up Bian Sai's feelings for the sake of his future career, but he didn't expect that a year later, the Ming Dynasty collapsed and Chongzhen hanged, and poor Wu Meicun had a national disaster, and his career was empty, and he was famous in a dream for half a lifetime.

The country is gone, the leader is gone, the cause is gone, out of the grief of the death of the leader and the sadness of the loss of the land and the loss of the future, Wu Meicun decided to hang himself, and went to see the former leader who also hung his tongue in the image of hanging his tongue.

The Wu family has found that Wu Meicun's mood is not right these days, his speech is upside down, his eyes are empty, he feels that there is a problem, and he always pays attention to him, afraid that something stupid will happen to him. After discovering that Wumei Village could not be found, the family quickly sent people to search around, and finally found Wu Meicun who was looking for a short sight and rescued him.

Wu's father and mother snorted and cried, scolding Wu Meicun for being unfilial, and persuading Wu Meicun not to do this kind of painful and hateful thing anymore.

The sadness of his parents made Wu Meicun realize that he could not die for the time being, and he could not use death to liberate, and he would continue to live and suffer, because his responsibility had not yet been fulfilled, and he was worthy of Chongzhen, who knew the grace of his encounter, but he was sorry for his parents who gave birth to him. The parents of the body only have the right to use but not the ownership, and they must obtain the consent of their parents if they want to dispose of it, and obviously the parents do not agree with him to scrap it in advance.

At the same time, Wu Meicun also realized that choosing to die was to evade responsibility and reality, and to transfer his pain to his relatives, which was too selfish and self-interested, and not the eldest husband's doing.

Since ancient times, loyalty and filial piety cannot be both, the deceased is gone, the country is ruined and the monarch is dead, and suicide is a senseless sacrifice. Since you can't do anything for the country, take good care of your family.

Wu Meicun dispelled the idea of suicide, thinking about making up and living first, what do you want to do when your parents die, how you want to die, you can try all kinds of fancy ways to die, even if you cut yourself off, it doesn't matter.

After a while, a friend who was in the same pain as Wu Meicun came to Wu Meicun's house. This friend thought that the way to relieve his pain was to become a monk, but he felt that it was too lonely to become a monk alone, so he wanted to ask Wu Meicun to be a Taoist couple.

Wu Meicun did not agree, he thought that becoming a monk and committing suicide were the same thing, the same was selfishness, escaping reality and irresponsible, leaving parents, wives and children to recite scriptures and worship Buddha for peace of mind, this is not peace of mind, but the extinction of human nature.

Wu Meicun did not promise her friends and continued to accompany her family.

By the way, becoming a monk is not another way, but a wider way out and a more popular profession, and most of the positive characters in "Peach Blossom Fan" have chosen to become monks except for those who died in battle.

After the establishment of the Hongguang regime in Nanjing, Wu Meicun was invited to become the director of the Hongguang Emperor's crown office. However, two months later, Wu Meicun found that the new imperial court was not very friendly to the restoration society, and resigned and went home to live idlely.

After another half a year, Duoduo led the Qing army to launch a war against Qin Huai. The war destroyed all rules and order and morality, and it was not illegal to buy zero yuan, and the more you robbed, the greater the credit; if you kill people without breaking the law, the more you kill, the more you will be glorious, and these illegal and criminal acts are the basic national policy and the main means of expanding the territory and accumulating primitive wealth of the new imperial court.

After another period of time, the wallets of the vast number of commanders and soldiers and cadres at all levels in the Qing Dynasty were full, and the territory of the imperial court was large enough, so they no longer killed chickens and eggs, but tried to transform and develop, establish a new order, and create a new chain of interest transmission to maintain more stable and greater interests.

This kind of transformation is not that the court has become better and has begun to reason, the hooligan is still the same hooligan, but the hooligan is transforming, shirtless and hard to become covert, replacing violence with civil rule, and replacing open robbery with law.

In order to ensure that the work of transformation and upgrading is fully implemented and implemented, the imperial court began to recruit management talents like Wu Meicun across the country.

Soon, the cars outside Wu Meicun's house were full of people who came to persuade him to go out, including relatives, friends, former comrades of the Fushe Society, and cadres of the current Qing court. In particular, the attitude of the Qing court cadres was more sincere. Being able to invite Wu Meicun is not only everyone's merit, but also the death order issued by the above, and the service will be completed, so they are more prepared, in addition to the earnest truth and warm feelings, the strong man behind them, the steel knife in their hands, and the words full of strong threats are all manifestations of sincerity.

It is not only Wu Meicun who is facing such a situation, but most of the outstanding members of the Restoration Society are facing such problems. The government has only one request for them: "You have deviated and are rerouting you." "

Whether to resist or non-violent non-cooperation is not a question of Wu Meicun's personal future, but a major issue of the development direction facing the entire Restoration Society.

The Restoration Society is not only a literary organization, but also a social organization, and its members are both classmates and comrades. At the beginning of its establishment, the purpose of the Restoration Society was to take over Donglin's class, and when the eunuch party was rampant, they opposed the eunuchs, Li Zicheng opposed Li Zicheng after he came to power, Hongguang opposed Hongguang after he came to power, and opposed the Qing Dynasty after the Qing troops entered the customs.

As soon as the discussion began, the delegates began to roll inward, and soon divided into two distinct factions: the Ming faction and the Qing faction. The Ming faction believes that everyone should not forget their original intentions, oppose the Qing Dynasty and restore the Ming Dynasty, be loyal to the country, avenge the dead comrades-in-arms, resist to the last person, and die to nourish the Qing soldiers with a bloody face. The Qing faction believes that we should recognize the situation, take advantage of the trend, keep the world in mind, let go of hatred, forget personal enmity, face the future, and join if we can't fight.

The two factions have their own reasons, and the more they talk about it, the more they feel that the other party is unreasonable. The former iron-blooded comrades-in-arms have become scolding friends, group discussions have turned into quarrels and debates, accusing each other, you call me a shameless traitor and lackey scum, I scold you for the smell and hard stones in the toilet, spray each other happily, the established agenda cannot be completed, and the order of the venue cannot be guaranteed.

Wu Meicun, who was sitting on the rostrum and watching all this, was very sad, no matter who won or lost in the quarrel, the Fushe was lost, and it was no longer the Fushe who was ready to drink and blood at any time when countless hot-blooded young people responded to every call, and they bit each other internally, and they didn't need others to destroy themselves, they destroyed themselves.

The people's hearts are scattered, the team is not easy to lead, this is a divided congress and a defeated congress. Everyone's situation is different, the ideas in their hearts are also different, they have to take their own ideas, and there will be no results if they continue to talk, only the more noisy and divisive, and the senior management of the Restoration Society hastily announced the end of the meeting without reaching any consensus.

Fusha has become hemiplegic.

Wu Meicun did not make any speech, because he did not know what to do, and he was determined to speak without making a decision.

These days, Wu Meicun's family is full of friends and friends, all for his business.

There are two main groups of people who have been forcing him to come out.

The first group is literati, and the representative figures are Erchen: one is called Chen Mingxia, and the other is called Chen Zhixuan. Chen Mingxia is a Tanhua one term later than Wu Mei Village; Chen Zhixuan is a list of people one year earlier than Wu Mei Village, and he is also the son and daughter of Wu Mei Village.

Erchen did not forget his general heart, and always insisted on strongly recommending Wu Meicun to the Qing court, again and again, but he was afraid that the Qing court would forget about it. The two of them said to the imperial court that they would seek talents for the country and not avoid relatives, and what they said to Wu Meicun was to give him a chance to realize the value of life.

Wu Meicun is not a fool, knowing that the intestines of these two people are so coiled into nine twists and eighteen bends, it is nothing more than to pull more people in the traitor and traitor Sven scum team, there are more people to disperse the firepower, thicken the meat pad, and strengthen the firewall, and everyone in the world will not only greet the two of them.

The second group that wooed Wu Meicun was the eunuch party, and the representative figure was Feng Quan. Feng Quan is not a eunuch, but the backbone of the eunuch party, the academic performance is as good as Wu Meicun, 19 Xiuzhong Jinshi, selected into the Hanlin Academy, has killed countless Donglin party members, Chongzhen was dealt with after coming to power, after the Qing army entered the customs, he became the first batch of surrender personnel, and was later named Taibao, university scholar and Ministry of Rites by the Qing people, a very popular minister. He strongly recommended Wu Meicun, in addition to the same reason as Er Chen, there is another thing that cannot be said: the Fushe has been scolding the eunuchs for defecting and surrendering to the Qing Dynasty, and pulling Wumei Village into the water can block the mouth of the Fushe.

Is the recommendation of these people a good thing for Wu Meicun? If Wu Meicun really wants to be an official, everyone is giving him a step; if Wu Meicun does not want to be an official, everyone is pushing him into the fire pit.

Wu Meicun couldn't hide. No way, it's too good, I can't hide the brilliance

Of course, not everyone persuaded Wu Meicun to go out, some persuaded Wu Meicun to be loyal to the Ming Dynasty, poured him all kinds of chicken soup over and over again, talked about character, preached morality, and encouraged him, always afraid that he would slip on the wrong path, and warned him not to betray his faith and ignore the righteousness.

Among these dissuasions, there is a letter that is more famous, and his owner is Hou Fangyu, the protagonist of "Peach Blossom Fan". Hou Fangyu believes that Wu Mei Village is a representative of the country's scholars and young people, and it is a clear banner, and the people of the whole country are staring at Wu Meicun's words and deeds with wide eyes, and exhorting Wu Meicun to resist it. The surrender of Wumei Village has too bad an impact, not only will he be stinking for 10,000 years, but he will also bring a large number of young people to the ditch.

If Wu Meicun wants to become a leader, he will feel that they are morally kidnapping him; if Wu Meicun does not want to become a leader, he will feel relieved, that he is not lonely in his way, that he is not lonely in his great way, that he is not lonely in the right way, and that he is not lonely in the right way, and that he has chosen the right path and that his efforts are worth it.

In fact, there is no need for Hou Fangyu to analyze the possible impact of his surrender to the Qing people—in fact, no one needs to analyze it, Wu Meicun is a smart person, and he is still an extremely smart person—he is smarter than the vast majority of people who came to persuade him, and he is clear about the twists and turns after this matter, and the reasons given by those who persuade him to leave the office are the same as those who persuade him to refuse, but the conclusions reached are completely different because of the different angles at which the two sides are standing.

No matter how delicious the meal is, it will hurt people, whether everyone is good or malicious, whether it is persuasion or dissuasion, when there are more and more words of persuasion, Wu Meicun feels bored, especially when he is rudely persuaded by some little people, Wu Meicun finally got angry: When Lao Tzu joined the work, you were still in elementary school, Lao Tzu was already a jinshi, you are still a showman, Lao Tzu has long been an official, you are an ordinary person, Lao Tzu has long been famous all over the world, you are still reading disciple rules, what qualifications do you have to tell me the truth?

All kinds of lobbyists flew around like flies, buzzing and chirping, and they didn't stop until they reached their goal, making Wu Meicun's eyes dizzy and Wu Meicun's head hurting.

Of course, what Wu Meicun hates even more is the person who persuaded him to become a leader. These people did not stop for a moment, talking to Wu Meicun over and over again about vision, reality, and life, and the invitations to the office were always there, and all kinds of high-paying and honest jobs were bombarded with food and accommodation, and all kinds of vacant positions were bombarded with information waiting for the emperor to come, and the key government positions were as cheap as small advertisements.

Wu Mei Village, Wu Mei Village, is he willing to go out of office? Of course he doesn't, the three views he has formed since childhood make him unable to throw himself into the arms of the new imperial court. He has always been a tough resistant, he was willing to die for Chongzhen back then, and now he is naturally not afraid of death, in the face of the warm invitation of the imperial court, Wu Meicun has no room for negotiation, you have the ability to kill me.

Even a timid child has become bold, which shows how strong his will is.

Wu Meicun doesn't want to be a teaching material anyway, the Qing court wants to use him to enhance positive energy, how strong Wu Meicun's feelings are about refusal, how resolute the attitude of the Qing court is, the truth of the two sides must not be clear, and the contradictions are destined to be irreconcilable.

However, Wu Meicun's opinion is not important, because he is a good boy, he must consider all external factors, his ideological fetters and reality are too much, he has no freedom of choice, he can't be capricious, he doesn't even have the freedom to be a monk or even die, and naturally he doesn't have the freedom to choose or refuse.

In the past few days, the pressure on Wu Meicun has been too great, more than Hou Fangyu, Mao Bijiang, Chen Zhenhui, Fang Yizhi and others combined. Although these people are famous, they are all talented, compared to Wu Meicun, they are nothing more than fireflies against the sun and the moon, and the imperial court just forced them to take the exam. And Wu Meicun is the eye of the list, Chongzhen's important minister, the prince's teacher, and the backbone of the Fushe, and the pressure will be as great as the reputation. It was the local government that put pressure on Hou Fangyu and others, and it was the highest level of the court that put pressure on Wumei Village.

After a futile attempt to make a case of reasoning, the government decided to resort to physical persuasion.

The mountain rain is coming, and the wind is full of buildings. Wu Meicun felt an unprecedented pressure. On the one hand, it is the moral integrity and ideals and beliefs from the beginning, and on the other hand, the affectionate gaze of the Qing court full of expectations and longing for him to become a leader, Wu Meicun does not know where to go.

The work is bad, the emotions are messy, Wu Meicun can't stand it, the city routine is deep, I want to go back to the countryside, he left the big city, returned to the old house in the countryside, and lived a green life.
