I am engaged in construction in Datang
Chapter 258 Those who remain indifferent are all murderers
"Me?" The girl's bright eyes and white teeth pointed her white jade finger at him: "The border was lost, I came here to seek refuge with my cousin uncle."
"Are you the husband of this family?"
The young man shook his head and said, "No, my father was the steward here, and then I became a servant here."
"It's the job of serving tea and water."
Hearing this, the girl frowned slightly: "You have some skills, you should be a guard instead of a servant."
The boy shook his head and said no more.
When the country is in crisis, what difference does it make whether you are a guard or a servant?
The story told in "Going Out to the Frontier" is simple and clear. The girl was originally the daughter of a landlord in the frontier. Unexpectedly, foreign enemies attacked and her mother suffered a series of disasters. She had no choice but to flee to the Central Plains to seek refuge with her cousin.
The young man was a servant of a family in the Central Plains and had some talent for martial arts.
The two met and got to know each other, and feelings gradually developed.
But the good times did not last long. Now the country is in a precarious situation and is on the verge of destruction. The current emperor is incompetent and extravagant, and the whole country is in chaos. Everyone, whether ordinary people or wealthy families, is in danger.
When the army came here to recruit soldiers, the young man enlisted in place of his host and embarked on an unknown journey.
"When can you return?"
"When the red fruit flowers on Gaocheng Mountain bloom, I can come back."
The following year, the border was lost.
The current emperor wants to use marriage to ease the pressure on the authorities, so he picked out a few young girls of marriageable age from among the clan members.
The girl married off to a distant place along with her aunt's daughter as a dowry maid.
A year later, the two met again on the mottled city wall. The cold autumn wind dried the tears on their cheeks, and everyone's hair was covered with dust.
Rain beats on the scapula, tears wash the burnt tail string. In troubled times, the place where the heart goes back to is just a shadow of the old face.
The two of them passed each other hurriedly and only had time to say a few words.
This time it was the young man who asked, "When can you come back?"
"Wait until the red fruit flowers on the mountain bloom."
But the mountains of Goucheng will never be able to grow beautiful red fruit trees.
Time flies, and thirteen years have passed in a flash.
The enemy broke the agreement and the city was captured after several months of fighting.
When the girl was hanging on the sorghum mahogany, the boy shot the last arrow of his life.
Sad and melodious singing echoed by the lake.
"The purple smoke from the green stove, the wrinkled clothes and wet hair have not yet stopped
The spring breeze misled me, the thin veil could not hide the ruins
Even though I am humble, I dare not forget my homeland
My soul is buried there
And the loving A Niang A Ye
......"
Some people wiped their tears and said with trembling lips: "That girl is really stupid. She is just a servant girl, why did she have to assassinate the Barbarian King?"
"And the young lady she followed, the Barbarian King treated her well, but she died of depression."
"How can anyone be happy when someone treats you well while killing your compatriots?"
"Love is not worth mentioning in the face of national hatred and family feuds."
"That guy is stupid. He clearly had a chance to escape. He was just a small soldier. Why did he stay there?"
Flower boat.
A group of old men drank tea silently. Li Yin sat next to Empress Changsun, playing with her folding fan in a cool manner.
"Stepsister."
Empress Chang Sun said, "What if you fall in love with your enemy?"
"It's important to know what kind of enemy you are. After all, I can only represent myself."
Li Yin said: "If the other person hurts me and I love him, then I might forgive him."
"Love is unreasonable!"
"But what if the other party not only hurts me, but also hurts the people around me, my compatriots, and my country."
"Who am I to forgive them?"
Empress Changsun nodded: "That's the truth."
"Love and revenge are two different things."
She continued: "Just like tea and cakes, although there are some connections, they are still different."
"It would be irrational to force yourself to swallow unpalatable pastries just because the tea tastes good."
"It is also."
Li Yin smiled and said, "It's okay if you don't know. If you know that the other person is your blood enemy and you still fall in love with him, it's either Stockholm syndrome or something extremely vicious."
How cold-hearted must one be to be moved by an enemy with whom one has a deep hatred?
Not to mention the Anti-Japanese War, just talk about the daily life she lived as a Chinese at that time.
Just by imagining about being in love with a person who watched the "distortion of historical facts such as the massacre and 731" and condoned "building holy toilets, discharging nuclear wastewater and other shitty things", she immediately began to feel chest tightness and shortness of breath.
In Li Yin's eyes, those who remain indifferent are all murderers, and they cannot be presumed innocent just because they are too big.
The people on the shore were in tears, and Cheng Chuliang and Yuchi Baolin, these big and strong men, were crying out of breath.
"Old Cheng, I have to learn how to fight and practice hot weapons tactics in the future."
"Me too!"
Cheng Chuliang said, "We can't ask the Tang lady to marry."
"Yes, I won't say it before, but from now on..."
"Humph! Whoever dares to mention it, we will punish him!"
After a while of clamoring, the second generation thought of their own father.
"Tell me, when will Aye and the others retreat..."
"Ah, bah, bah, bah!" Qin Huaidao covered Cheng Chuliang's mouth in time. If Aye and the others heard it, he would definitely be beaten.
"Ah..." Yuchi Baolin sighed, "It's because our territory is too small. Let alone us, that kid Shouyue will never be able to accomplish anything, right?"
Several second-generation people thought about it carefully and became dejected.
There is no place for them in the army!
As for political affairs, those big guys are in good health now, and there is a special existence like Master Li, so there is no need to worry about their health. Everyone just needs to work hard.
Where can they go to achieve success?
As the song on the stage came to an end, heavy snow began to fall. This once powerful dynasty eventually became a passing memory in the history books.
This time on the Chinese Valentine's Day, Li Yin brought out a lot of different things. Not only traditional shadow play, drama, and acrobatics performances, but also musicals, sketches, dramas, etc., which dazzled everyone.
The performance did not end until the early morning of the next day.
Some people were in high spirits and couldn't sleep at all, so they followed their friends to Pingkangfang to drink.
The flower boat that Li Yin and others were on had already left, and Uncle Sanxi had made arrangements for the follow-up, so she didn't need to worry too much.
"Sister, marriage is just a diplomatic tactic..."
"Brother." Li Yin took a sip of tea and said, "I was sent to protect the country, but I don't know where to find the general."
"Our Tang Dynasty has so many elite soldiers and generals, and now we also have pistols, cannons and other powerful weapons. Why should we worry about not being able to subjugate the surrounding countries?"
"Sacrificing my wife to win over allies is a false peace."
"Sister." Empress Changsun said: "The Tibetan king has been very arrogant in recent years. A few days ago, he sent an envoy to ask to marry my Tang princess."
"You really don't know how high the sky is and how deep the earth is!"
The talk of seeking marriage was just relying on the fact that there were many foreign tribes surrounding the Tang Dynasty and that he believed he had some ability to unify Tibet, so he shamelessly forced the Tang Dynasty to marry the princess.
Historically, Li Shimin ignored it at first, but later when he wanted to march east to Goguryeo, he still used the method of marriage to appease the surrounding areas.
"Sister-in-law, no one will dare to force me to marry into the Tang Dynasty from now on."
"Allowing them to pay tribute every year is a great blessing. Those poor neighboring small countries don't have anything rare enough for us to take a fancy to!"
Li Yin's words were too unreasonable, but Li Shimin felt very relieved to hear them.
