Chapter 12: Relief
One night when Fusang's fleet was approaching Datang, Qingren had a long talk with Fuyufeng.
The big ship swayed gently with the waves on the sea, and the two of them had already adapted to this level of turbulence after more than a month of sea sailing, and the two small wine glasses on the table listened quietly to the conversation between the two.
The two just talked in a low voice, the sea outside the deck seemed calm, I don't know what kind of undercurrent was surging under the water, the moon rising on the sea was exceptionally bright and bright, and the reflection of the sea surface was sparkling.
"Fengjun, life is full of ups and downs, so you really don't have to stick to the past."
Qingren had never said this kind of thing before, and the destruction of the country seemed to be very far away for ordinary people, and all the people cared about was three meals and one night a day, and whoever became the emperor and who was an official was the same for them.
But for the royal family, it is eternal shame and pain, and it seems that only by constantly pursuing the restoration of the country is the future life path, and only then can the unwillingness and humiliation in the bottom of my heart be calmed a little.
However, Fuyu Feng even gave up this path, and it was precisely because he gave up so willingly that Qingren was extremely worried.
"Your Highness." Fuyu Feng smiled lightly and said: "I'm not unambitious and self-defeating. ”
"When I was sent to Fusang as a hostage, the Baekje Dynasty was already sick, and although my father and brother were not mediocre and incompetent, they were not able to turn the tide of the building, and we were the millions of people in Baekje."
How sober does a person have to be to say these words calmly, is his heart really as calm as his face?
"The lord of Silla is not bad, but I hope he can be kind to the people of Baekje."
"Your Highness, please don't worry that I have no intention of surviving, the Buyeo clan, as the head of the country, has not fulfilled its duty to protect the people of Baekje, and has not been able to give the people a life of peace and contentment.
"My life is preserved by His Royal Highness's hard work, Buyeo Feng will cherish it, and he will live up to His Highness's expectations, as for any matter in the future, Buyeo Feng can drive at will."
"Fengjun, at the beginning of your acquaintance, I was one of the emperor's many princes, and we can be regarded as friends who knew each other for a long time, and it was only because of the two of them that they had similar personalities that we had trust and support later."
"I said that I didn't stick to the past, but I also said it to myself."
"You have been in Fusang for a long time, and you know a lot about Fusang, but you don't know my background very well."
"My mother, like all Fusang women, was of low status, and like many of His Majesty's concubines, she was also favored at first, but His Majesty's favor came and went quickly, and my mother was soon replaced by new concubines."
"But my mother, unlike the other concubines of His Majesty, had a warm and cheerful nature and wonderful ideas, and she believed that there was no distinction between men and women in this world."
"She often told me to believe that one day women could kneel without seeing people, and they could do the same thing as men."
"I was raised by my mother since I was a child, and I was deeply affected by my mother's temperament, and my mother's palace was not like the palaces of other concubines, which were lifeless, and were always full of laughter."
"My mother came from a wealthy family, she likes to read and is very talented, and my Chinese is taught by my mother."
"It's a pity that my mother died early, and before she died, my mother said to me that I would like to see farther and see if there are thousands of possibilities in life, instead of wasting time in this tomb-like palace."
"Qingren, you can go and see it for me."
"That's why I fought to come to Datang, my mother didn't want me to survive in the cracks of the palace, I wanted to go on her behalf to see if there was the kind of life she said in the world."
This was the first time that Fuyu Feng had heard about this, and his heart was shaken, and he felt a kind of power like spring grass about to break through the ground.
How could a Fusang woman be so broad-minded, and as young as them, how could she easily say that her life was gloomy, he really felt relieved, and felt the heat of hope surging in his heart.
He looked at Kiyohito with joy, and Kiyohito was moved by the eagerness in his eyes, and the two couldn't help but laugh hopefully.
The waves crashed against the ship, the sun rose over the sea, and the fog lifted.
