Butterfly Dream of Longevity Tribulation
Chapter 143
The woman in purple didn't seem to care about the peddler's drive away, she just reached out her hand to get the watermelon, but at this moment, she heard a sound of gongs and drums not far away, shaking her hands so much that she didn't even touch the watermelon skin , People have been rushed to the center of the crowd by the sudden surge of people.
She staggered and was pushed back and forth by the people around her. She managed to gain a firm foothold. When she wanted to turn around to look for the melon and fruit cart, there were all unfamiliar faces in front of her. I don't know how far the car has gone.
It's really unlucky, she cursed in her heart, finally returned to the human world, finally saw so much food, if it wasn't for the sound of gongs and drums just now, that piece of watermelon would have sacrificed to her five internal organs temple long ago.
As the flow of people surged, her ears kept hearing the voices of the common people with different levels of discussion.
Someone sighed in a low voice, "It's true that misfortunes never come singly, and blessings never come in pairs. I thought that the new king would allow us Yun people to live a good life and never be bullied by those horse thieves in Xia. But all of this is going to come to an end now." Lost..."
Another person followed: "Yeah, why don't we leave before this battle is fought! I heard that the new ruler of Shang Kingdom will open all border towns for free, especially the people of Yun Kingdom. , not only is each household rewarded with one mu of land, but there is also generous rewards to receive, and if a new child is born, they can be exempted from paying taxes for ten years!"
"Exactly! I've heard about it too! In the past, we only thought it was the Shang Dynasty's Huaimin policy. But this time when Bai Lirong died of illness, her daughter's ascension to the throne not only fully obeyed her mother's will, but was even more lenient! Come to think of it, our new monarch is not as good as her. Although some taxes have been exempted, even if we poor people don’t pay taxes, we still have to pay a lot of money for renting land every year. Natural disasters have continued these years, and there are often no lands. But none of those landlords are willing to show kindness and waive these land rents. Right now, I thought that Yunshang was going to get married, but I didn't expect the monarch... Hey! I think we should listen to Brother Li, and the rest of us will go to the merchants together Forget it, staying here is starving, so it’s better to go out and venture out. At least you don’t have to sit and wait to die!” The speaker was wearing a brown brocade handkerchief on his head, and his clothes were patched with patches, and the hole on his arm was huge. It's like wearing a vest.
"Hehe, big brother, is what you said just now true? The monarch of Shang is dead? Who is the current monarch? What happened to the monarch of Yun? Didn't he marry the princess of Shang?"
As the man walked, he looked sideways at her. Although the clothes were clean, the messy hair, and the dirty face made the man lose all vigilance, and only regarded her as himself. They are all poor people.
So, she curled her lips and said, "Girl, I'm afraid no one in Kyushu knows about this matter. Did you hear the sound of gongs and drums just now?"
She widened her eyes, nodded in doubt, and the man said again: "It was beaten by the herald of the government. The king of the Shang Kingdom has been dead for a while. Today is the new king's succession. Countries. Originally, a small place like ours would never hear any news for three or two months, but for some reason, today it is simultaneously sending orders with the counties and prefectures. We all feel that it is novel, so follow along to see the excitement !"
"Miss asked what the new king was doing? Could it be that he also wanted to go to the Shang Kingdom?" Seeing that she was alone, the man asked kindly.
She smiled mischievously, waved her hands, and denied, "No, I'm just asking casually, just asking casually."
The man was quite straightforward, seeing that she didn't want to say more, and didn't ask any more, but still walked with the flow of people, while talking to her every sentence about the major events that happened in the two countries during this period of time .
As the speed of the flow of people gradually slowed down, people finally stopped, only to hear the sound of gongs and drums coming from the front, followed by the deafening sound of firecrackers.
She raised her hands and pressed her ears tightly, staring blankly at the front, thoughtful.
In just a few months, Bai Lirong died of illness?That Baili Bing's face must have been healed, otherwise how could he be enthroned as the king?And Luo Cheng, he is also seriously ill?I remember that when they left Xuanyang City that day, he was still troubled by the messy government affairs.
Now they haven't heard the good news about him and Baili Bing, but they have already heard the news that he is seriously ill.
If it is true that the world is changing, it seems that when she, Mu Zili and Yifeng first came to the world, they swore that they would never be separated.
But now she is the only one left, alone and helpless.
She stood blankly on the street alone, and she didn't know how long it had been. When she looked up, she realized that the crowd around her had already dispersed, and it was almost dusk. At this moment, only a few pedestrians and busy people were left on the originally busy long street. The hawker who collects the stall.
Like a dream, like a dream, where should you settle down tonight?She looked up at the sky, it was blue and cloudless, and the halo of the setting sun made her dizzy, making her in a trance for a moment, as if she was still in that desert, still in his broad arms, and could still be pillowed on him chest to sleep.
However, everything is like a dream, gone forever.
I'm afraid she will never be able to see or feel the stars and warmth of that night.
The sky was getting darker and darker, and apart from a few homeless beggars on both sides of the street, there was only a dreamy person standing alone in the afterglow of the setting sun, with an expressionless face, letting the wind blow the messy hair on her forehead , covering her face.
After a long time, the last ray of sunlight finally fell, and the whole long street fell into darkness.
Only then did she forcefully move forward, walking forward aimlessly, when suddenly the smell of broth came in the air, she couldn't help swallowing, raised her hand to brush away the broken hair that covered her eyes, and looked sideways. Take a look first.
It turned out that she was passing by a stew restaurant, and that tempting aroma just now came from here.
It was time for dinner, but when she glanced over, there was no customer in the restaurant, only the shopkeeper himself was sitting at the door of the store with a bowl of hot broth, and every bite of pancake was a mouthful of broth.
She stopped, hesitating whether to go in, but after groping her body with her hands, she still gave up.
Just as she was about to turn around and leave, she heard a hoarse male voice calling: "Meng'er? Is that you?"
Her body trembled subconsciously, she didn't turn around to look, she still walked forward, as if she didn't hear it.
She knew that she must have been hungry for too long, had low blood sugar, and had hallucinations.
In such a remote town, no one would recognize her.
Moreover, the voice just now sounded very strange, not someone she knew.
She staggered and was pushed back and forth by the people around her. She managed to gain a firm foothold. When she wanted to turn around to look for the melon and fruit cart, there were all unfamiliar faces in front of her. I don't know how far the car has gone.
