Three Kingdoms: I don’t want to fall in love in troubled times
Chapter 165 Chang’an and the Real Man
Chapter 165 Chang’an and the Real Man
The temperature dropped quietly. I don’t know which rain started, but the weather became full of malice, as if it was going to kill everyone. In the face of this indiscriminate magic attack, the thin wood of the carriage carriage Although the wall screamed "no", it was unable to resist at all.
The snow flakes were carried by the west wind, and they hit the ceiling one after another, making a kind of fine and continuous sound.
In winter, it is suitable for dense snow and the sound of broken jade.
"Speaking of which," Miss Cai tightened the quilt around her body, casually picked up a topic and leaned towards the eldest princess nearby to keep warm, "There are still many things to do in Anding County, why are you suddenly going to Chang'an? "
"what--"
Liu Ying took her hand naturally, rubbed it cooperatively for Cai Yan, who was afraid of the cold, and then breathed out the hot air to warm it up.
The two of them had always been friends in times of adversity, but since they comforted her last time, they had become more harmonious with each other - maybe not harmoniously, but that Cai Yan finally got rid of the little grudge in his heart and completely accepted her.
"Xu Zimao said he was taking me back to see his brother." Liu Ying held her delicate hand, looked up with a smile and said, "He also said that Chang'an is not peaceful now, and if we go late, we will start fighting again."
"Okay, okay, you are just facing him." Miss Cai took out her warmed hand, rolled her eyes and said, "You believe whatever I say, and you will be deceived sooner or later."
"Really!", the eldest princess experienced this kind of secret conversation atmosphere for the first time, with a sincere and charming expression, "When we first arrived in Chang'an, Xu Zimao told me that Lu Bu and Dong were two tigers in one mountain. Sooner or later, They would break up, and things turned out to be exactly as he expected!"
Thinking of the long dream he had inexplicably when he didn't know him, Liu Ying lowered his voice and asked mysteriously: "Do you think Xu Zimao is a worldly magical magician?"
"The more you talk about it, the more outrageous it becomes." Miss Cai did not give any face to Xu who was outside. "You have never seen him like that before, squatting outside Taixue, holding a stack of paper in his hand and copying " "The Analects of Confucius", I thought it was another unlearned and unskilled person randomly recommended by some state or county."
If such a person were a magical alchemist, she, Cai Yan, would be the incarnation of the Queen Mother of the West!
"That's great." Liu Ying blinked, feeling sincerely envious, "It's great to have known each other so early."
Many times when you meet someone, you wish you could reverse time and space and go back to the past, grow up with him or her with memories that haven't happened yet, and don't want to miss a second. In the final analysis, this feeling is just selfishness.
"." Miss Cai has always been sensitive. She found that Liu Ying's mood was not right, so she quickly changed the subject, leaned lightly on her shoulder, and asked: "I haven't met the late emperor yet, what kind of person is he?"
Before she could remember, her father Cai Yong had fallen out of favor and been demoted. She had no impression of Liu Hong as the culprit. Asking this question was not only to satisfy curiosity, but also to find a common topic.
What a coincidence - as soon as your father got angry, my father was demoted for more than ten years.
Unexpectedly, Liu Ying frowned and thought about it seriously, then shook his head and said, "I don't remember either."
Naturally, outsiders didn't know what kind of life she lived in the palace. The whole world just thought that this Wannian princess just acted in a low-key manner, so her presence was not high.
"It's true, my father rarely comes to see me." Seeing that Cai Yan didn't believe it, she hurriedly explained: "I haven't seen him for many years, and I have forgotten his voice and appearance."
Even in the years when she had the highest expectations for Liu Hong, all she really expected was a vague figure exercising her father's responsibilities. As for what Liu Hong looked like, it was already a very distant thing from then on, let alone now. .
"I just thought he was a foolish king who was addicted to pleasure," Cai Yan complained mercilessly: "I didn't expect him to be a cold-blooded and ruthless father."
How can such a person govern the country well?
Under the influence of Old Man Cai, Cai Yan received the most orthodox Confucian education. According to historians, Zang Fu's characters have always been as sharp as a knife - from this point of view, although there were many people who caused chaos in the Han Dynasty, Liu Hong, the Marquis of Jiedu Ting, was the most powerful. most!
By this time, Confucianism had been dominant for more than three hundred years. Under its influence, when discussing posthumous titles, it would more or less save some face for the late emperor. After all, it is a son to judge the father and a minister to judge the king. It is too much to lose face on both sides. It's hard to get through, but Liu Hong's situation is special - his son has no power, and he has offended all the ministers, so one of the three evil posthumous titles of "You", "Li" and "Ling" will definitely not escape him.
"It's all in the past." Liu Ying opened a corner of the curtain and said calmly as he looked at the wind and snow covering the sky outside the car.
Only now did she realize that there was nothing more tragic than waiting for someone else to save her. Her mother, Queen Song, that noble and indifferent woman like an orchid, was waiting peacefully, but never waited for her father to come to her throughout her life. Looking back once, I only waited for the decree to be thrown into the cold palace.
Never wait, do what you want to do immediately, and see the person you like immediately.
Liu Ying saw Xu Zimao leading the way on horseback with a satisfied smile on his face.
Ten days later.
There had just been a heavy snowfall in Chang'an. The inner city remained silent under the snow cover, while the snow in the outer city quickly began to melt.
The foot stepped on the snow and made a crisp sound. The small footprint was compacted and collapsed, turning into a translucent snow cake, and you could roughly see the color underneath.
In this way, the footsteps gradually spread, turning this place into an isolated island of human fireworks in the vast white world.
Sun Zi led his classmates to provide relief in the outer city.
When Xu Jiashu and Gan Ning left, the charity house was originally entrusted to a group of old diners headed by Mao Hong. However, with Li Ru's order, all the charity houses inside and outside the city were forced to close their doors, and they dispersed.
It happened that the restored Taixue wanted to teach the Six Arts, so Mao Hong wanted to find a job to teach calligraphy there. He met Sun Zi and others. These people had made white paper fans for the Jinfan Rangers, later Yishe. figure.
After hearing that the charity house was imprisoned, Sun Zi and his classmates spontaneously carried out relief at the original site. Anyway, this was the place where they followed Gan Ning to expand their territory and absorb refugees. The name of Jinfan Ranger still has some influence here.Seeing that the Tai students only helped the refugees but did not take them in, Li Ru turned a blind eye.
Xu Jiashu, who came to the outer city, saw a long queue at this familiar location from a distance. He thought that the charity house was still running well, so he dismounted and followed the end of the queue, lining up with great interest.
If he met Mao Daya, it would be a reunion of old friends, which would be a wonderful thing.
The line shortened little by little.
"Next!"
Sun Zi bent down and scooped a deep spoonful from the bottom of the bucket, and explained a little embarrassedly: "The weather is really bad, so those who came late can only eat some cold porridge."
"Oh," Xu Jiashu asked with a straight face, "but you don't know how late I came?"
"It's been almost a year since you arrived." Sun Zi raised his head and saw him. He was stunned for a long time, and then he said with emotion, "Teacher, you are finally back."
Speaking of which, the teacher-student friendship between him and this teacher was not very long-lasting. It was more about the relationship cultivated on the road to moving the capital and the days when he first arrived in Chang'an.
He is called teacher and student, but in fact he is regarded as an elder brother.
"Well", Xu Jiashu pointed at the Weishui River covered with a thick layer of ice: "Will you come with me for a walk?"
During the conversation with Sun Zi, he learned that the situation in Chang'an was not bad at present.
Although the court's brutal relocation activities brought huge disasters to the local middle class, there was still something to eat after all, and the famine and refugees were stopped by Xu Jiashu, who was still in Shangshutai at the time, and there was no major disaster. spread on a large scale.
More importantly, without Taishi Dong coming back with tens of thousands of troops to indiscriminately harm the noble families and civilians, Chang'an today is not much different from when Xu Jiashu left - the inner city is expensive but the public security is good, and the outer city relies on supplies The rich and aristocratic people had a hard time making ends meet, while a very small number relied on Sun Zi and others for their relief to stay alive.
"Where is the court?" Xu Jiashu asked, "What is the situation now?"
"Students are stupid and can't see clearly." Sun Zi shook his head, feeling that he had let the teacher down. "I am a junior from Wang Situ's hometown, so I am quite thin-faced among the scholars of my generation. I know some inside stories, but it is precisely because In this way, it becomes more and more confusing.”
How would you describe the current situation between North Korea and China?
Cavalry General Dong Min covers the sky with one hand?No, no, Sun Zi vaguely heard that the real decision-maker was not Dong Min.
Is that when Wang Situ knelt down and gave up the power of Sangong and Taige?That's not right. Sun Zi and Wang Yun had a close personal relationship. Wang Situ was an upright man. Even Dong Zhuo wanted to borrow his reputation. He was by no means a boneless person.
Who is the person behind the scenes and what does he want to do? The scholars seem to be letting the restraints tighten a little bit. Is there a killer move behind the scenes that is not triggered? These questions are unknown to Sun Zi at this level. Because of his special status, He could see a corner of the iceberg, but that was where it ended.
Xu Jiashu used Sun Zi's words and combined with the direction of the simulation to piece together the complete outline bit by bit.
"Teacher, be careful when you come back," Sun Zi said with a worried look on his face, "Dong's family is so powerful that if he appears rashly, he might get angry!"
"Yes." Xu Jiashu nodded, as if he was good.
Among the hills in Chang'an, he planned to be the first to find Xun You, who was originally a member of the same small group, called the Return Organization.
"Student, I have another question to ask." Sun Zi hesitated for a moment, and then asked: "My classmates and I want to take advantage of the opportunity of relieving the victims to recruit some strong men and train them so that they can be put to use one day. The teacher thinks how?"
Since the resumption of classes at Taixue, although other students have been happy and excited, thinking that the imperial court is short of people and that as long as they study with peace of mind, they will be able to rise to prominence sooner or later. Only the dozen or so people who have worked hard in the Jinfan Rangers and the charity house do not think so.
When a person participates in the creation of a new thing - even if it is just a charity or a gang, after tasting the taste of power, he will feel uneasy about being a complete pawn.
The illusory future cannot calm these young people who have experienced the turmoil of the world with Xu Jiashu. Instead, they can't wait to reach out and grab something, even if doing so may involve taking huge risks.
How can a man be without power for a day?
"."
Xu Jiashu got to know Sun Zi again as if he were seeing him for the first time.
"I don't know if this is possible," he replied.
This is the truth. A group of teenage Tai students cannot make much noise, let alone be noticed by the simulator, so Xu Jiashu cannot give a clear answer.
But
"Whatever you want to do, just do it." He reached out and patted the snow on Sun Zi's body. "I haven't seen you for a year, and you are already a man."
Sun Zi is like this, what about the other people in Chang'an City?
