Bang dang.

When he heard the name of He Mullan, he dropped the dagger in his hand almost in a heart.

He Mulan's sad and disappointed eyes were like a knife, which stirred the heart of the Qiu Lin leopard to pieces, and he could barely stand up straight in pain.

Shame, self-loathing, sadness, guilt...... Many, many emotions that could not be put into words made him cover his face and kneel before Mullan.

"Woo woo, woo woo woo ......"

He wept like a man of despair who had been badly wounded.

"General Hana, I'm ashamed ......"

"I'm ashamed!"

After this experience, He Mulan had no sleepiness at all, and when Arman Zhuo knew that this peer who had fallen into the grass was actually the son of General Chulin, his expression was very complicated.

The hill leopard suddenly cried as if he had been forced to fall into the grass, but He Mulan and Ah Danzhuo were the parties, so they naturally knew that not only was he not coerced, but he should still be one of the robbers who were taken care of.

At least the bandits were willing to let go of their "big fat sheep" for him, and the coerced people generally did not have this treatment.

Although these robbers are a little bit old, they really feel the brotherly righteousness.

Hermulan closed his eyes, not wanting to look at him.

This hill leopard and his mother are really mother and son, and they love to cry so much.

Wang got dressed and ran out of the main house, and when he saw his son kneeling on the ground and crying bitterly, he knew that this "Mulan" knew that his son was not dead. She just told the lie in the afternoon, and when the lie was exposed, her face suddenly turned blue and red, and she didn't know if it was the emotion of weakness or fear that made her breathless.

Wang had never seen his son cry so sadly, even when she forced him to leave with death, he had never been so sad.

She shivered for a moment, and only then did she really feel the night cold.

"It's all my fault, no matter what happened to the leopard...... Wang opened his mouth a little panicked, "I made him do that, I let him run ......"

"What the hell is going on!" He Mullan sat down on his knees any longer. Don't hold anyone accountable yet, I'm not an official at all, and I'm not here to convict anyone. Please consider my feelings as well, as I do not want to visit my fellow family members."

"Please all sit down and at least let me figure out what's going on!"

He Mulan's rare Yan sù frightened Shan Zhuo, and immediately knelt down and sat down.

The hill leopard sobbed as he wiped his eyes with his sleeve, his throat as if it was blocked by something, and all he made for a long time was a broken sound.

Wang was still standing, as if this was the only way she had the strength to speak.

"I ...... I let the leopard escape the military service......"

She spoke out about what she had done wrong.

"I forced him to die and let him escape."

In an instant, the green tendons on Ardan Zhuo's forehead suddenly appeared.

And the Leopard of the Hill, who seemed to have been judged once, suddenly heard the sound of his arteries agitating in his temples on both sides, as if two hammers were pounding, and he was like a stone man, and he did not dare to move.

"Well, I skipped military service, and then what? Why do the villagers say he is dead? Also, Leopard Tu, why did you fall into the grass again......"

"Leopard, you went to be a strongman?" Wang Shi gasped, "Didn't you say you found a job?" Is this it?"

The Hilly Leopard suddenly fell to its knees, not daring to raise its head.

"It's my fault...... I was wrong in the first place......" Wang muttered to himself, and began to talk about it as if he had lost his soul.

"...... two years ago"

Two years ago, the Qiulin Leopard, who was almost eighteen years old, suddenly received a military sticker from the military government. When His Majesty needs to fight, or there is a critical moment at the border pass, the military government will send a military sticker, which indicates the dignitaries in the barracks, the time they must arrive, and the things they need to prepare.

Military stickers are generally one letter per household, so when they were sent to the Qiu Lin family of Shangdang, the Wang family collapsed directly.

The Qiulin clan originally lived in Rouxuan Town, which was a military town that belonged to the same six northern towns as Huaishuo and Wuchuan. Xianbei people are the government military system, all ancestors have had military exploits for generations, and the military government recruits manpower, generally by household posting.

The number of Xianbei people killed in the war is amazing, in order to preserve the family's incense, most of the Xianbei military families are a big family living together, some people are many, there are twenty or thirty people in a household, so if the military stickers come, just send an adult strong man.

The Qiu Lin family, the Hua family, and the Ashan family are all like this. Chulimburg, Huajiabao, and the Adan clan, these are not even prominent families, but they still live in groups, not to mention other slightly more prominent families.

Because this affected the number of conscripts, so in the Tuoba and Tuoba Tao dynasties, the court came up with a way - to relocate.

Tear apart the Xianbei families in the counties and military towns with large populations, distribute large quantities of uncultivated fertile soil and livestock, and migrate them to other sparsely populated counties. The relocated families have become new military households, and the big families have become small families, originally twenty or thirty people were one household, and one man was recruited, but now four or five people are one household, and one man is also recruited, but the number is much more.

This law was very effective in wartime, and many men risked their lives to flee the country with the fertile land and livestock that were divided, and some slaves were freed to become military households under the recommendation of their original owners and go to new places to start their own lives.

Can who. [,！ I didn't expect this emperor to love to expand his territory so much, although he won every battle, and plundered a lot of wealth from other countries, and the soldiers who followed the expedition earned a lot of property, but there were also many people who died.

When a person dies, there is nothing, and even if there is military merit, it is vain.

A large number of military families have only orphans and widows left, and the big families have not broken their bones, but many of the military families who have migrated to various places have lost their children and grandchildren. After more than ten years of guarding her son, Wang finally pulled him up, and suddenly another army came to her house, and she almost went crazy.

The only brothers who moved to the party from the Chulin clan were Chulin Mozhen and Chulin Moray, although Chulin Moray was also a man, he was born with heart disease, and he was even out of breath when he did it, let alone go into battle.

It is precisely because of his heart disease that Chulin Morey is so old that he has not even decided on family affairs.

The Wang clan took the military stickers to beg the "lords" and conscription officers here, wanting to ask them to leave some incense for Qiu Lin Mo Zhen for the sake of his martyrdom, but he was refused.

"My Xianbei boy has lived like this for generations, his father died and his son succeeded, and his son died and his grandson died, if it is really a family that all of them are dead, it can only be said that the skills are not as good as others, and the training is not enough." The recruiter had never seen such a messy woman.

"You go and look at other places, and there are all those who have fought until all their families are cut off, and the army has raised you and given you fields, just for this moment. This is the fate of the soldiers, Mo said that General Qiu Lin is a hero, even if it is His Majesty, he was also killed in the army back then, doesn't he know that he also has to leave an incense?"

Wang didn't grow up in the six northern towns at all, she was just an ordinary Han woman, and she didn't live in the particularly tragic environment of Xianbei, so she couldn't understand this determination to send her children to the battlefield even if the family died.

In her opinion, she has already sent away a husband, and now she only has one son by her side, and if her son also dies on the battlefield, she is sorry for the ancestor of the Chulin family, sorry for the dead husband.

The Qiu Lin family, Mo Lei, has no children, and if she and Mo Zhen's son have a case, the "Shangdang Qiu Lin Clan" will be completely cut off.

"…… Therefore, I persuaded the uncle to return to Rouxuan. I told him that if the leopard was gone, and they would be alone in the same room, I would not be comfortable, and he believed it, and he didn't want to join the camp as a soldier for my son, so within a few days, my uncle went back to Rouxuan."

Wang Shi grimaced and continued: "After the uncle left, I forced the leopard to escape to the mountains with death, and first avoided military service. When the conscription time was over, the military government came to my house to ask my children why they did not enlist as promised, and I told them that my leopard went hunting and never returned, and that it should have been eaten by wild beasts."

Shan Zhuo squeezed his fist with a bang.

Hermulan gave him an inexplicable look and slapped his nervous fist soothingly.

Hearing this, the Fox Leopard Sudden seemed to have been too vain. But the afterglow of his eyes never left Mulan, and when he saw He Mulan's affectionate movements towards Shan Zhuo, his eyes darkened.

"What can I do? I'm a powerless woman, and I can't think of anything but to let him escape."

"Soon after I got married, my husband left home to fight, saying that there was an uncle who took care of me, but in fact I took care of him more. Later, my husband died, and I was a woman, and how hard it would be to raise a child, and it was impossible for outsiders to understand the hardships. I have worked so hard to raise him to adulthood, and before I have seen him spread out, I will send him to war again......"

She looked at Hermulan and asked, "You should be able to understand me, right?" I heard that you just didn't want your family to go to the battlefield to die, so you replaced yourself and went to join the army. I don't have the courage of you, and even if I did, I wouldn't be able to go to war for my son, and I don't look like a man at all......"

"Aunt Wang, what you said is a bit too ......much," Shan Zhuo shouted as if he couldn't bear it.

"She's right." He Mulan grabbed him, "I do look like a man, but I don't have the courage you think. I am also very afraid of death, and when I think of the remorse of my grandfather, aunt and brother after my death, I don't dare to slack off on the battlefield at all......"

He Mulan thought for a moment and nodded, "Yes, I think I can understand your worries and fears, but the decision to let this kid escape is just an escape. You will live in a different kind of fear, and you will have your son trapped in some kind of prison forever, without a day of completion."

"At that time, I had nightmares every day, all of a sudden my husband's body was sent back by a bunch of people, countless people asked me to 'take care', and all of a sudden I couldn't wait for my son to come back, not even the corpse."

When Wang thinks about those days, his hands still spasm. It was the sequelae left after she received the military sticker, and she still can't be appeased.

"But I didn't expect them to do it so thoroughly. The people of the military government searched the mountain I said and found no trace of my son, nor did they find any trace of his death. They became suspicious......"

"But I'm Qiu Lin Mo Zhen's wife, and they are suspicious, and they can't do anything to me. However, they visited all the military families in the small towns and villages, and remembered the male members of each military family, and he told them that each family must send a strong man to join the army, regardless of whether there was already a soldier in the family."

"The military government said that the rule of the Xianbei people is that if there are deserters in a tribe, then the same tribe must sit together. Now is not the time for the tribe, but the rules of the military government cannot be changed. If there's one person missing here, the rest of the family will have to make up for it."

Her voice trembled slightly:

"All at once I became a sinner in the country, everybody. [,！ When you pass by my door, they will smack me a few bites. No one will sell me anything, and no one will help me farm. Later, because all the people in my family were 'dead', and the identity of the military household was gone, the fields and livestock were all taken back, and some people took advantage of the night to throw dung and firecrackers in front of my house, and I couldn't sleep all night long, and the leopards occasionally came back to see me secretly for fear of being discovered, so I simply packed up my things and lived next to my husband's grave."

"He was buried as a general, and no one would come here to take revenge."

"General Hua, you ask me why the villagers hate me so much......"

She felt as if she was stepping on a void, a place where she had no foothold. The mere thought of their bodies lying in a place where no one knew them, the horror and exhaustion that was more terrible than the sight of her husband's body made her stiffen.

She did regret it, but there was no turning back.

"Because I am a sinner."
