Chapter 185: A Family Together
Liu Quan used to be very afraid of Shi Jiao'e. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info Even, because he was afraid of Shi Jiao'e, he almost betrayed Han Xiu.
However, this does not mean that he will be loyal to Shi Jiao'e. A person like him is just a wavering wall-to-wall grass, and as long as the power on either side is strong, he will immediately fall to that side to protect himself.
In the palace, there are many such people.
Shi Jiao'e, who is well versed in human nature, doesn't bother to deal with this kind of villain at all.
"Han Xiu is really shameless, such a shameless act can even be named in the name of righteousness!" Shi Jiao'e snorted disdainfully, sneered and said: "This palace only learned today that the original dignified Dashun Empire can only protect thousands of people by sending children as hostages. ”
The defense of the country does not depend on the strength of the army, but on the sacrifice of a child less than six years old!
How ridiculous?
People always like to use survival and righteousness to whitewash the sin in their hearts. However, this is also a kind of human nature - after all, people always have an instinct to beautify themselves.
In order to be able to make one's evil heart feel at ease, he will subconsciously beautify himself and name all crimes as righteousness, and then those originally shameless and dirty acts will seem to become reasonable.
Just like Han Xiu, he said some noble words, and it seemed that everything was for the country and the people, using the so-called righteousness to coerce others and ask others to make self-sacrifices.
However, since others must sacrifice for his righteousness, why does he never sacrifice his own interests when he cries out all day long to uphold righteousness?
In order to prevent the military generals from mutiny, he tried every means to collect the military power, and would rather involve the troops of this dynasty, and even lost the city by the Northern Jin Dynasty, and resolutely refused to let his righteous brother lead the troops to fight.
He can ruthlessly send a young boy less than six years old to the enemy camp as a hostage, but he can't let the army stationed outside the city immediately pull out the camp to support the front line?! The most important thing is that in order not to divide the territory to the meritorious ministers, he fooled the generals into ignoring the hundred-year covenant and going to attack the Northern Jin Dynasty!
The current situation is completely Han Xiu's own fault!
Say anything to protect the people, but it's just selfish! How can a huge empire need to be protected by a child less than six years old!
"The second prince is the emperor's son! Since he enjoys the status of the prince, he should fulfill his obligations for the peace of Dashun. Liu Quan's mind turned quickly, and he immediately retorted.
Shi Jiao'e didn't get angry, just glanced at him indifferently, and said calmly: "No matter how noble the reason, you should not sacrifice innocent people to achieve your own goals. ”
It's just that this glance actually made Liu Quan tremble in fright.
What kind of momentum is that? Sharp and sharp, full of a strong murderous aura, just like the sea before a storm, it seems to be rough on the surface, but there are already stormy waves under the surface of the sea!
Liu Quan only felt a tremor from his bones, and his scalp was numb in shock.
"The minister is just here to pass on the decree, if the queen is dissatisfied, she should go and tell the emperor in person!" Liu Quan defended himself in panic, and finally fled.
Go to Han Xiu?
Shi Jiao'e sighed helplessly - she couldn't even get out of the door of the inner palace, how could she see Han Xiu, let alone accuse and question Han Xiu in person! If it weren't for the fact that she was really depressed and depressed in her heart, how could she vent her emotions in front of a eunuch?!
Once again, she was deeply aware of her powerlessness.
She's still not independent enough. Only when people are independent can they do whatever they want and do whatever they want. Always rely on others, and once the person who helped you one day is gone, it will be difficult to move on immediately.
Her father and brother went to the disaster relief, and she was imprisoned in the palace, and there was not even a person to ask!
"Mother, is my brother really going to be sent away?" Han Xin leaned her neck and looked at Shi Jiao'e with red eyes, although she tried hard to suppress it, a layer of mist had already appeared in her eyes.
Shi Jiao'e could even think that as long as she nodded, her daughter's tears would fall immediately.
However, she could not deceive.
Even if she says no, the lie will be exposed tomorrow morning.
"Lang'er......" Shi Jiao'e turned her head to look at Han Lang, but found that the child, who had not had any expression in the past few days, had burst into tears at this moment.
"Don't be afraid, brother, my sister will always be with you and protect you forever! I'm going to be a hostage with you! Han Xin gritted his teeth and tried his best to endure the hatred, but he couldn't bear it, so he could only say hatefully: "Since my father doesn't want you anymore, we won't want my father in the future!" ”
Don't be a father!
can make her daughter say such cruel words, which shows how disappointed she is in her father!
Even, despair!
However, Han Lang didn't answer her, she didn't even move her eyelids, she just cried silently, silently, but it made Shi Jiao'e feel a heart-rending pain.
"Lang'er, don't be afraid! Even if you want to be a hostage, your mother will accompany you. My mother will not leave you alone again, and will never leave you behind! Shi Jiao'e hugged Han Lang, pressed his head into her arms, and burst into tears.
She saw despair in Han Lang's eyes!
That is, dead despair!
"Han Xiaowolf, don't cry! My mother and I will accompany you! We're all in this together! Han Xin clenched his fists tightly, gritted his teeth and said, "Even if you die!" We're all in this together, too! ”
"Sister!" Han Lang struggled, broke free from Shi Jiao'e's arms, and plunged into Han Xin's arms. He hugged his sister's waist tightly with both hands, his shoulders were trembling, and he kept sobbing: "Sister, I'm so scared...... I'm so scared! He won't let you go! ”
He was afraid of being abandoned, he was afraid that he was left alone!
"If he doesn't agree, I'll die in front of him!" Han Xin hugged her brother tightly with her backhand, her expression was so solemn, this was her promise to her brother, and it was also her oath.
"Wow......" Han Lang suddenly howled, and the tears rolled down in large pieces and fell on the placket of his clothes.
"Why did he lie to me? Why did she lie to me? Han Lang cried inarticulately, his face was stained with tears, and his eyes were swollen like walnuts, like a wounded little beast.
Shi Jiao'e only felt a sour feeling welling up in her heart, and tears soon blurred her vision.
"Lang'er, don't be sad, this life is very long. You may encounter countless deceptions and betrayals. However, neither deception nor betrayal is terrible, what is terrible is your refusal to face it. As long as you are willing to face it, and after this period of time, you will look back, and you will find that the things that once made you desperate are not that important at all. ”
Shi Jiao'e's hands were trembling, although it was persuasion, but her heart was distressed.
