Chapter 362 Your Majesty, Are You Serious?
Like a kind old man, the old emperor began to tell Xie Yuan about the past:
"Back then, the Hu people took advantage of the civil strife among the Han people, occupied the Han people's land and did not leave.

For those who are used to killing, looting, and looting, what the Han people own is like grass that will grow naturally in spring.

When the time comes, they will pull people around to kill and rob at will, and enjoy them after harvesting, and come out to kill and rob when there is nothing left.

In my whole life, most of my time has been spent on resisting the invasion and plunder of the barbarians.

You just said that they are fierce and not afraid of death, but... people who have no brains and can only rely on fighting for others are not afraid of death, because they will not be able to eat because they are afraid of death. "

Xie Yuan lowered his head and moved his lips, as if he wanted to refute something, but he didn't speak.

But still noticed by the old emperor, he said:
"Now you may feel that those barbarians are no different from us, especially Wei Guo, their military towns can farm and produce, that is, their appearance and clothing are slightly different from ours.

But let me tell you, that’s because so many years have passed, they went to the Han people’s place, and in order to adapt to the environment, they learned the living habits of the Han people and changed a lot. "

The old emperor narrowed his eyes, with hatred in his eyes, shining brightly in the firelight:

"Because they look like a person, it doesn't mean they are the same as us, how could it be the same?

Those barbarians still can't change what's in their bones - they are cruel and easy to kill, they only rely on their brutality to grab other people's territories and things, and they are proud of it. "

The old emperor looked at Xie Yuan, and asked her with burning eyes: "You have dealt with those Xianbei people in Wei State, those rascals, you should know what they say about Han people?

They robbed the land of our Han people, killed our people, and did things like robbers, but they shamelessly thought that they were better than the Han people, saying that the Han people were weak and useless? ! "

The old emperor was really angry. When he said this, he gritted his teeth and squeezed his voice out of his throat.

"The Han people are cowardly and useless?" The old emperor repeated emphatically as if he couldn't accept it, and then said, "When the Han people were strong, they beat the barbarians so hard that they couldn't even stay in the grasslands. The whole world is my territory.

I only hate that the hearts of the Han people are not in harmony nowadays, and they cannot save the climate of the Great Han Dynasty back then.

Otherwise, we must let those shameless barbarians know who is strong and who is weak, and who is the real master of this world! "

The old emperor's tone was too excited, and he coughed violently as soon as he finished speaking.Eunuch He quickly brought a water bowl in front of him, and asked the emperor to cough up the phlegm in his throat.

Xie Yuan looked at such an old man from the side, every time he coughed, it seemed as if he was about to spit out his lungs, and the sound of painful breathing was sharp and harsh.

She couldn't help feeling empathy, frowned, and felt uncomfortable.

Seeing the emperor suffering so much, Eunuch He's expression turned bitter, and he asked in a low voice:

"Your Majesty...do you want to pass on the imperial physician?"

The old emperor finally finished coughing, took out a handkerchief from his cuff, covered the corner of his mouth and wiped it, showed a tired but relaxed smile, and said:
"I'm getting old, and I'm about to sink into the ground, but I suddenly think of my ambition when I was young. I'm just a little excited. It's okay."

Hearing this, Eunuch He's sad look flashed across his face, and then he served tea and water attentively, and did not speak again.

The emperor looked at Xie Yuan carefully again, and said:

"You know, when I knew that someone like you was out of the army, did I have any dreams?
The dream is that Wei Qing and Huo Qubing came out of my country of Song. From then on, the Han army has the courage, has the wind, and will be invincible from now on. The glory of the dynasty. "

The old emperor sighed deeply, with disappointment in his brows and eyes, and said:
"But the first time I met you, you completely shattered this dream of mine... Not even a scum is left."

When the old emperor said the last sentence, he almost gritted his teeth with hatred.

After hearing so much, Xie Yuan felt that he was not the emperor, but an old man who was seriously ill.Hearing what he said, I felt guilty unconsciously.

She lowered her eyes involuntarily, and after a while, half comforting, half stubbornly said:
"I was once disappointed because I was not a man. But later I realized that it is useless to entangle men and women. This is a reality that cannot be changed no matter what.

Since you can't change it, it's better to do something useful.For example, use your strength to prove that you are not weaker than a man. "

The more Xie Yuan said, the more confident he became, he raised Danfeng's eyes to look at the old emperor of Song and said:
"Your Majesty, since I can figure it out, why can't you forget about whether I am a man or a woman, and just treat me as someone available?"

The old emperor and Xie Yuan looked at each other stubbornly, and did not speak for a long time.

"Okay, I'll give you this chance." The old emperor suddenly said lightly, but it was as if he was shocked.

Even Eunuch He froze in shock and looked at Xie Yuan.

Xie Yuan's eyes suddenly widened in shock, his pupils scanned the emperor's expression, he couldn't believe it was real!

"Your Majesty, are you serious?" Xie Yuan's eyes were moist and he asked with a choked voice.

At this moment, the haggard old man in front of her eyes shone like a god in her eyes, just because he said such a sentence.

His words were the result of her dreams!
"I'm not foolish yet, so it's true." The old emperor said casually.

He lowered his eyelids and looked at the brazier in front of him, and said:

"You should know that letting a woman be an official is a violation of the norms, let alone leading troops to fight. If you tell it, the world will think it is ridiculous.

I can risk the world's unhappiness to give you this opportunity, and I will ask the prince to entrust you with important tasks according to your strength after my funeral.

The prince naturally knows your identity, but you must not let others know that you are a girl.Otherwise, no one in the world will tolerate you without the emperor's objection, do you understand? "

Xie Yuan had tears in his eyes, and his body couldn't stop trembling slightly because of his excitement and gratitude.

She got up from the ground, knelt down in front of the emperor, solemnly bent down and kowtowed:
"Your Majesty understands. Thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace! From now on, I will be so heartbroken that I will be loyal to Your Majesty and the Great Song Dynasty until death!"

As he spoke, he kowtowed three times on the ground, and after kowtowing, he fell on the ground and did not get up for a long time.

Because she was crying, and her tears hit the ground hot.

It is not her style to shed tears in front of people, she dared to get up only when she lowered her head and held back her tears.

The emperor looked at her and nodded, narrowed his eyes viciously, and said to Xie Yuan:

"Okay, I believe you are telling the truth. I only hope that you can remember the sincerity at this moment, and that you can really do your duty for Da Song. Don't let me regret today's decision under Jiuquan."
