At the end of the day's drill, Li Zhenxiang and the little lady were settled into a simple room by Rinchen to sleep, and finally left the dark little dark room.

The autumn is cold, there are a few small soldiers outside the room, the two girls have just gone through a day of training, very tired, at this time just want to sleep a lot, just look forward to tonight opposite the hurricane army will not come to sneak attack, stirring up the army to live in peace, they also have to fight to kill the enemy, very annoying.

"Sister Zhenxiang, how did you learn the flying stunt, and how did you have such a profound pharmacological skill?"

Agarwood only learned the method of bow and crossbow shooting in the army today, and did not do a lot of physical exercises, and was still in good spirits at night, so he pulled Li Zhenxiang to chat together.

Although Li Zhenxiang was exhausted, she saw that this little lady was very curious about herself, and she couldn't shirk the little lady's good intentions, so she told this little lady all what she had happened in the past seven years.

The little lady was very sympathetic to Li Zhenxiang's experience, and couldn't help but cry in the corners of her eyes.

"My sister is so blessed, my sister can see that the son named Hao Yu is really thinking about his sister!"

Hearing Agarwood's words, Hao Yu's indecent face appeared in front of Li Zhenxiang's eyes again, Li Zhenxiang felt a twitch in her heart, her eyes were hot, and she was quite uncomfortable.

"Don't mention it, little lady, no one is gone, but my sister is a blessing, and she has a husband who protects her."

"Alas, I have known Xiaole since childhood, and I am also hard, sister, we are rarely idle today, do you want to listen to me tell a story, or this war is together, maybe one day I will be captured by the little ghost of Hades."

Li Zhenxiang suddenly realized that the little lady in the small village under Licheng would actually have a story.

"Ten years ago, Xiao Le and I were not nationals of this western state, but grew up in a small panic village outside the city in the land of Dongqiu......"

……

Ten years ago, in a small deserted village in the land of Eastern Autumn.

"Agarwood, agarwood, come here, the village chief asked us to send these clothes and food to the big sister in the grass house opposite, let's go over together!"

Outside the courtyard gate of Agarwood, Xiaole, who is almost seven years old, holds a pile of coarse clothes in both hands and calls for Agarwood playing in the courtyard.

Agarwood, who was the same age, saw Xiaole coming to the door to find him, so he stroked his long hair, patted the ashes on his face, gave birth to a smiling face, and ran towards Xiaole.

"Xiaole Xiaole, why are we going to send clothes and food to the big sister again, your mother and I were also born poor, and the village chief didn't care about it, so good to the big sister?"

Agarwood smiled and complained with a small mouth.

"Agarwood, not long after the big sister arrived in our village, our village chief saw that she was helpless, so he felt pity, the village chief has his own reasons for doing this, let's not care, we will send clothes and food later, let's take you to find someone to play with kicking shoes."

When Agarwood saw that Xiaole wanted to take him to play with kicking shoes, it was as if everything no longer existed, and he just wanted to send this clothes to the big sister as soon as possible, so that he could go crazy with Xiaole.

In a small hut, Xiaole gave clothes and grass to a woman.

This woman's eyebrows are crooked, her face is delicate, and her whole body is soaked in the breath of cold plums.

The woman took the clothes and thanked the village chief and the two children.

Suddenly, the grass house remembered a baby's cry.

The woman immediately ran into the house, and immediately heard the sound of the woman falling asleep.

"Oh, baby, my brother wants to give my brother a smile, my brother wants to give my brother a kiss, and my mother will tell you two babies."

The sound of this sleep was gentle and charitable, and the two children seemed to be coaxing themselves to sleep by their mother's side.

After a few moments, the house was quiet again, and the two children also jumped up and went to find their friends to play with their shoes.

……

Night falls.

Above the deserted village outside the city, the moon is bright and high, and the stars around the crimson moon are dense, and occasionally there is a trace of mist like a light veil whisking jade, Ling Ran floats in the night sky. The soft light of the moon diffused and poured down, penetrating the silk veil, sprinkled on the grass houses of the deserted village, and the entire night sky was like an ancient static axis, without a trace of vision.

The oil in the small grass house of the agarwood family is dim, the half of the dry oil touched by the wick is about to burn out, the soft light in the whole hut is flickering, it is bright and dark, and there are a few golden cicadas crying outside the house, and the inside and outside of the hut are peaceful.

A breeze blew out the oil lamp in the house, and it was time for the agarwood to fall asleep.

Agarwood sat on the bed, looked at the night sky outside the window, and muttered: "The night tonight is so beautiful, but I haven't been so quiet and peaceful for a while!" ”

As soon as the agarwood voice fell, suddenly the wooden horizontal supporting the window suddenly jumped out, and the sound of a flood smashing the window was intimidated in the grass house, and when the wooden window was smashed, thousands of wisps of ash were shaken out, and they were sprinkled on the face of the agarwood.

Mixed with the rolling of the dry soil and the sound of the rubble of the grass house, there was the sound of iron horses stamped with gold and bronze on the ground outside.

Due to the lack of water in recent years, the soil of the village has cracked, the geology is abnormally dry, and the loess of the village has been shaken and impermanent, and the thatched houses have been swaying.

Suddenly, the sound of horses' hooves stopped.

……

Agarwood panicked, and saw his mother rushing into the house, lest the grass house collapse, so he picked himself up and rushed out of the grass house.

The light of the bright moon was sprinkled again, and the agarwood was hugged by the mother on the village path, and all the neighbors on the path gathered, all holding nails, rakes and hoes, lined up.

Suddenly, I only heard two horse roars in front of the villagers, and an iron horse shook the sky.

A frightened voice came from the horse: "In response to the policy of the imperial court, each person will pay taxes and eat five buckets of food!" ”

"Five buckets? The imperial court has always paid five liters of grain in taxes, but now it has become five buckets, which has increased tenfold? How can we live by collecting taxes like this? ”

"It's your business to live in the way, I only respond to the imperial court and collect taxes and grain!"

After speaking, more than 20 iron horsemen jumped into the air, and then the front hooves of gold and bronze slammed into the ground, shaking the grass house again.

"It's good to send people, it's hard to work for the emperor, this year's drought, we and the grass people's harvest has been halved, and we can't afford to pay such a heavy tax and grain, I will pay it all next year, and I hope the emperor will be blessed forever."

"The chaotic people of the heavens, this is the emperor's grace, sympathetic to the people, the food has been reduced, you don't feel the emperor's grace, and the devil confuses the people, it is really innocent!"

A Pegasus soldier pulled out his waist knife and wanted to swing it down.

"Slow!"

A general stopped the waist knife.

"The emperor is blessed by the sky, if you pay all the grain, you will be blessed by heaven and the family will be prosperous!"

This general was obviously not a foolish general, and began to use superstition to follow the good path of the people.

Under the bewitchment of the generals, some wealthy families paid high taxes and grains.

The mother of agarwood also gritted her teeth and paid all the heavy taxes and grains.

Xiaole's family on the side hugged Xiaole and paid all the taxes and grains that should be paid.

The neighbors left almost in tears, and as soon as the taxes and grain were paid, I don't know how the villagers will live in the coming year.

Just as Agarwood was leaving, the crying of two babies suddenly came from Agarwood's ears.
