On the Correct Posture of Probation of the Villain

Seven days later, Chu State's purge of Xu State was completed, and Xu's royal family was completely destroyed. Since then, only six of the seven kingdoms in the Kyushu Continent remained, and there was no more Xu State.

Xu State's original land was merged into Chu State, and Chu State sent princes and generals to settle in. Xu State's 42 cities and [-] counties were all changed, and people were arranged to go to the government office to change their household registration.

In a small county on the border of the royal capital, there was a long line outside the government office. There were men, women and children, and they basically all went out with their families.

The government clerk and assistant officials sat at the long table, and the person in front of him handed him an old household registration. He looked at it, and then took a pen to rewrite the county and village the person's name belonged to on a new one On the household registration, after transcribing the old household registration, throw the old household registration into the small burning stove beside you.

The word "Xu" on the paper of the old household registration in the small furnace was swallowed by the flames, and then the character "Chu" was found.

There were soldiers of Chu State on both sides of this long line, and a man sat down next to the master after patrolling, and the master's heart skipped a beat.

The original county magistrate of the government office was sent to the west by this Chu military officer. The master still remembers the three-foot splash of blood. Then I felt a tightness in my lower abdomen - I wanted to go to the toilet again.

But I dare not go.

The head bookkeeper was as courageous as a sesame seed, so he had to hold his legs tightly and took the next household registration. The previous household registration was Wang Chunniang, fifteen years old, and the other Wang Erlang, seven years old. According to the content of the household registration, it can be seen that It's right siblings.

The head clerk raised his eyes and saw that it was a young girl and a little boy, whose stature, face and household registration age matched each other.It's just that the clothes and hair of the siblings are very messy. He is a little strange here. After looking at the original address on the household registration, he understands that it is a family in the capital. A pair of siblings who crawled out of the forest.

When the girl retracted her hand, the officer sitting next to the master grabbed her hand.

Zhao Wu's heart skipped a beat. The officer's hand was so dishonest. His fingers penetrated into her palm and rubbed it carefully. Zhao Wu bit his lower lip to look at the officer. Come here? Look at the temperament, is it a young lady?"

Zhao Wu resisted the urge to do something, lowered his head and replied in a soft voice: "The house used to be a rice vendor in the capital, that day... that day the house collapsed, parents were destroyed by beams and wood, only My brother and I took our lives and crawled out..."

Speaking of this, it seemed that the scene of that day appeared in front of his eyes again, and he blinked his eyes towards the mist, and tears fell down his cheeks onto the long table in front of him, wetting the household registration paper waiting to be transcribed on the long table.

The officer just withdrew his hand, he looked at the tears falling down towards the mist in a panic, but still said cautiously: "The girl has a lot of calluses in her hands, it's not like the boudoir—"

Before he could finish his sentence, the master secretary around him seemed to feel pity for the siblings, and summoned up his courage to reply: "Master Jun doesn't know, but girls from small businesses and households don't pay so much attention, and they have to work often to subsidize the family. Some cocoons are not uncommon."

The officer still felt that the girl's temperament was different from ordinary people. At this time, the little boy who had been hiding behind her took two steps forward and raised his head. His face was dirty, but his eyes were bigger than ordinary children. Some, looking exceptionally clear in a dirty little face, looking full of innocence and ignorance.

The little boy looked about six or seven years old, the officer saw him tugging at the girl's sleeve, and said innocently: "Sister, I miss my parents, let's go find them, shall we?"

When he finished speaking, the little girl suddenly hissed and cried, bending down to hug her younger brother, but the little boy seemed puzzled, touched his sister's head in doubt, and comforted him: "Sister, don't cry, I will Don't look for parents anymore, okay?"

Behind him, the long line of people stuck their heads out to watch this scene, and gradually some people in the line began to sob softly, and for a while, the long street in front of the mansion was preceded by the hissing cries of girls, followed by suppressed ululation.

Liang Feng, an officer of the State of Chu, was sitting behind the long table at the end of the line. Hearing the unstoppable weeping, he felt as if he was dead and these people were attending funerals for him. The heart-piercing little girl persuaded: "Don't cry, it's not easy to escape from the capital, it's better to survive."

His comforting words were not so brilliant, the little girl was still crying, but her voice was a little softer, and the master did not finish writing, and asked weakly, "What are the household registrations of the two of them?"

"Hurry up and change it for someone else!" Liang Feng glared at the master bookkeeper, "Is it easy for me to be a sister and brother? Hurry up and copy it for someone else!"

Then the master clerk hurried to write, transcribed and threw the old household registration into a small stove and burned it, and handed the new one to the siblings.

Liang Feng saw that the little girl's crying voice had completely subsided, took over the changed household registration, wept and left holding his brother's hand.

After walking far away, Zhao Wu wiped his face, but there was not a single tear on his face. Xu Nian was looking at the newly changed household registration at the moment. They found the old household registration in other people's homes, but it was a pity that the family was collapsed. The beams and walls were smashed to death.

There is not much difference between the new household registration and the old household registration, except that the big "Xu" character in the upper left corner has been replaced with the "Chu" character, and the original Qing'an first year has also been replaced with the 34th year of the Chu Kingdom calendar.

Zhao Wu took Xu Nian's hand and walked on the almost deserted street. Xu Nian suddenly looked up, then lowered his head and said, "It's raining."

After he finished speaking, the sporadic raindrops became denser, and Chaowu dragged him to a house, and it turned into a torrential rain.

"The first rain in summer."

Chao Wu murmured, Xu Nian put the household registration in his arms and put it away carefully, no sadness or joy could be seen in his eyes.

He seemed to be in a daze, watching the rain fall in a daze, and after a while he said: "I read a poem before, the beginning of the poem is that a young man is listening to Yuge upstairs, and the red candles are dimmed."

Zhao Wu hadn't read many books, just literate. She looked at Xu Nian suspiciously. Seeing that she didn't know the poem, Xu Nian twitched the corners of her mouth, lowered her head and said softly, "It's nothing, just feeling a little bit emotional."

Zhao Wu didn't know what Xu Nian was feeling, but he knew that Xu Nianding was very sad, so he could only hold his hand in his own comfortingly, and whispered: "Your Highness, I will not leave you, I have the strength With effort, the two of us can survive."

Seeing Zhao Wu holding his hand, Xu Nian felt dazed for a while, and then replied softly, "Sister, there is no Zhao Wu and Xu Nian anymore, only a pair of siblings who crawled out of the ruins of the capital."

Chaowu was quiet for a while, and the first rain in summer came suddenly and quickly, and the rain stopped in a few moments. She took Xu Nian's hand and walked out of the eaves: "Brother, we must at least find someone tonight. A place to live and something to eat."

Xu Nian let Chaowu hold his hand, and asked how much money they had left. The two walked and talked all the way, looking like the most ordinary pair of siblings.

The direction behind them, within King Xu’s capital——

Most of the collapsed houses, including the palace, have been cleaned up. A sudden heavy rain washed the blood-splattered streets just now. The lingering bloody smell seemed to have been washed away by the rain.

Wangdu was also queuing up to change their new household registration. When the heavy rain came suddenly, everyone took shelter from the rain. Who knew whose old household registration was washed to the ground by the rain.

Under the eaves, a child sheltering from the rain held up the newly changed household registration and asked the parents around him: "Isn't it Qing'an, why did it become Tianqi for 34 years?"

When the words fell, and he didn't get an answer, he was slapped back by his parents, covering his head and humming in grievance.

The old household registration card on the street was washed to the ground by rain, and Qing'an's year number on it was gradually covered with mud and water and could no longer be seen clearly.

It was the 34th year of the apocalypse in the state of Chu. In this year, the 23rd year of Qing'an in the state of Xu was in a torrential rain...

It came to an abrupt end.

The author has something to say: Xu Nian said the phrase "A young man listens to Yuge upstairs, and the red candles are dimmed." It means that he was originally such a young man, but now he has fallen to such a point. Behind this poem is——

In the prime of life, listening to the rain in the boat, Jiang Kuoyun's low-cut goose is called the West Wind.

Nowadays, listening to the rain, you have already stars.

The joys and sorrows are always ruthless, dripping till dawn before the tenure.

Xu Nian didn't say anything about it, but the last few lines of the poem just expressed his state of mind at the moment.

Regarding Qing'an, Xu Guoxu read his father's year name Qing'an, which symbolized peace and security, but Xu Guo died in Qing'an's reign.

It's ironic that the year number is set like this.
