Chapter 228: The Khitan Hates the Most
Ye Hua packed his bags again, although he had been away from home many times, he could clearly feel that he didn't want to leave more and more. Grandma is getting older and older, and the little ones are growing up fast, and Guo Xingge always wraps around his legs, pestering him to tell stories and teach him arithmetic endorsements.
More and more emotions are like ropes, tying the heart one by one, Ye Hua's two lives combined, and he has almost reached the middle age of greasy and tired, and he understands the true meaning of Emperor Wei Wudi's sentence "The martyr is strong in his twilight years".
If you toss all your life, you are not tired and relaxed, it is really amazing.
Ye Hua hesitated for a long time, but decided to go to see the old lady.
"Big mom, my grandson is incompetent, and I can't find my aunt...... This time the capital was hit by a disaster, the original household was messed up, and the capital was being rebuilt, and the grandson was worried that he might not be able to find it for a while, so he asked the eldest mother to forgive me. ”
The old lady was silent for a long time, then suddenly sighed and said quietly: "Is it really impossible to find it?" ”
Ye Hua was stunned, the old lady got up, hugged her grandson's cheeks with both hands, and said with a smile: "You have such great ability, it's not easy to find someone!" Whether it's heaven or earth, you have a way, right? ”
Ye Hua can speak skillfully in the face of others, but in the face of the old lady, it looks clumsy and ridiculous...... Ye Shi let out a long sigh, "Big Mom knows everything. Your aunt is very bitter, but she also brought it on herself! ”
The old lady was ruthless and told Ye Hua that her aunt had self-love back then, and when she was a teenager, she got involved with a family member, causing a lot of trouble, and the Ye family's face was lost.
It was that incident that made Old Man Ye sick and died soon after.
Later, the Ye family could only marry the aunt far away, and gave a lot of dowry, who knew that the aunt would not change her life, and she would still be that virtuous, and the uncle was a shameless person, he coveted the Ye family's money, so he turned a blind eye.
The Ye family took Ye Hua to join them, if it weren't for the money in the old lady's hand, she would have been swept out of the house a long time ago, but my aunt didn't say a good word for them!
There is a cause and effect, my aunt's virtue led to the destruction of the temple and the killing of his wife, but I didn't expect that she was lucky not to die and fled to the capital, but she was actually taken by Liu Chuang.
The two of them lived a good life underground for more than two years, but the good times didn't last long, she was almost crazy by the Sanssouci Cave, and the child was also murdered.
"This is retribution!" The old lady said: "Don't worry about your aunt's affairs, I have already commanded, just say that your aunt and uncle are dead, just bury a grave for them." As for your aunt, she will live outside the city to recuperate first, if she really has a relationship with that Liu Chuang, let them live together, all in all, they have nothing to do with the Ye family! ”
The old lady's disposition was neat, Ye Hua didn't like her aunt, she came to this point, as the old lady said, she was to blame.
It's just that after all, it's a daughter, can you bear it as a mother?
"Big Mom, I see if I want my aunt to recuperate in the city......"
"Say no more!" The old lady sank her face, "She has done her own sin, and she has not paid off her debts, and no one can help her repay her debts." Now you are left alone in the Ye family. Remember to me, when I come back from the north, I must marry a lady and let my big mother hold a great-grandson, even if I die, I can be blind! ”
Hey, there's another forced marriage!
Ye Hua suddenly felt that he had become an older leftover man, Lao Tzu was not yet 16, who to reason with!
Ye Hua could only retreat helplessly, as soon as he came out of the old lady's room, Ye Zhong and Ye Xiao carried small bags on their backs, one left and one right, like the two gods, when they saw Ye Hua coming out, they hurriedly pounced.
"Brother, take us away!"
"Let's go? What to go? ”
"Go north to hunt!" The two men spoke in unison.
Ye Hua smiled angrily, "How old are you, what are you doing?" ”
Ye Zhong shook his head and said, "I'm 15 in two months, and Ye Xiao is almost 14." Brother, when you were 13 years old, you went to the northwest, and then went to Linzhou to kill the Khitan Emperor and become the champion marquis, we can't embarrass you, right? ”
The two little guys are both aggressive, and they will never give up if they don't agree...... Ye Hua looked at them, and then at himself, he was in a hurry to get married before he was 16, and he was going to fight before 15...... The ancients were really acute!
"It's done, I'll take you, but—you must be obedient, obey military orders!"
"Brother, don't worry!" They replied loudly.
The three members of the Ye family went out together, although there were differences in intimacy, there was no difference in what they could prepare, and the old lady sewed three cloaks with her own hands to keep the children warm.
Ye Hua handed over the government affairs in Beijing to Zhao Pu, and he cooperated with Zhao Pu several times, no matter his conduct or his way of doing things, Ye Hua was very relieved.
If you think about it again, you don't have to say goodbye to anyone.
The civilian officials fell out on their side, and the military generals all went north together...... By the way, there is Fu San, that little Nizi doesn't know where to go wild, so she prepared a warehouse of fireworks and left it for her to play by herself!
Ye Hua embarked on the journey to the north, leaving the capital, the more he went north, the more cold and windy it became, and Ye Zhong and Ye Xiao, who went out for the first time, also fell in their hearts after a short period of excitement.
"It's so cold, the wind is like a knife!" Ye Zhong shrank his head and said.
"It's not just cold, it's flat!" He pointed to the ground.
That's right, it's really flat, the plain of the Yellow River impact, endless, a horse and a flat river, only to the Yanshan, Taihang Mountain, there are lofty mountains, the city is steep, the Great Wall is a line, it is two thousand years, to defend the Central Plains agricultural civilization barrier.
Now that Youzhou and Yunzhou have fallen into the hands of the Khitan, the two gates have been taken off, and the wind, frost, rain and snow have all come in, directly hitting the face and entering the heart, which is really uncomfortable.
Along the way, the soldiers of Da Zhou all had black faces, and they were not in a good mood.
As the envoy of the Khitan, Yang Gon's eyebrows fluttered, and he constantly stimulated the Great Zhou with words, and he boasted unashamedly that as long as it took a few days, the Khitan iron cavalry would be able to kill the city of Kaifeng, and His Majesty the Emperor was merciful and could not bear to kill the people, otherwise he would have already waved his army south.
He kept saying this, and it made people vomit even more.
"Don't you forget, who are you and what blood is you bleeding from?" Zhao Da couldn't help it and scolded Yang Gon angrily.
Who knew that he didn't care, he pointed to his nose and said triumphantly: "My majesty has given the surname Yelu, I am different from you!" ”
"Phew! We are different! People and dogs have different paths! Also gave the name, the Khitan Emperor clearly put a human skin on his dog, it's a pity! If you dress up like a human being again, you still can't change the fact that you're a dog! Or a leper dog who forgets his ancestors, turns his back on his ancestors, and is incorruptible and shameful! ”
Zhao Da has been messing with Ye Hua for a long time, and he has become sharp-toothed and sharp-tongued, at least there is no problem with Yang Gon.
After a few words, Yang Gon was scolded so that his face was the same color as eggplant skin, not to mention how ugly it was.
From then on, Yang Gon was much more restrained, but Ye Hua and Chai Rong were in a very bad mood.
Sure enough, as Ye Hua judged, there are more and more Han people in Huhua, they are neither Khitans, nor are they from the Great Zhou, although everyone looks average, but they don't know what to pretend to be.
"I really don't know if there is a real Han family son!"
Chai Rong clenched his fists tightly, and he stared ahead, "Ye Hua, you're right, if you don't recover Yan Yun, there will really be no hope!" Although we may not be able to recover the land of 16 states when we go north this time, we must also tell the Han people here that the court has not forgotten them! ”
Ye Hua was even more excited, "That's right, as long as there is hope and people's hearts are there, there is a lot to be done!" In short, if you don't return to Yanyun, you will never give up! ”
"Yes, not to give up!"
They walked side by side, pointing out the country together, Chai Rong has great talents, Ye Hua has extraordinary knowledge, the more the two of them chat, the more speculative they become, and many views coincide.
Chai Rong even regretted it a little, he still treated Ye Hua as a child before, and he didn't pay too much attention to it, if he had a long talk with him earlier, he might have benefited more.
The friendship between the two has continued to heat up along the way, and they have almost become good friends who talk about everything.
Chai Rong is a restrained and reserved person, and he is very cold to people, but once he accepts it, he will be doubly good to you, no, in his eyes, Ye Hua has become a little brother who needs to be taken care of.
When I encounter something, I always listen to his opinion.
Seeing that they had arrived at the Daimyo's Mansion, Yang Gon suddenly found them and made a request.
"His Royal Highness the King of Jin, His Majesty the Great Liao Emperor has just sent a will, in order to show our determination to reconcile with the Great Zhou, we want to send a thousand fugitives to the Great Zhou." Yang Gon smiled and said: "Among them, many of them are nobles of Shatuo, when your emperor ascended the throne, these people fled to the Khitan for refuge, we handed over these remnants of Shatuo to you, which shows the kindness and generosity of our emperor, what does Your Highness think?" ”
Chai Rong didn't rush to make a statement, but kept silent, Ye Hua smiled, "Your envoy is so polite, he won't give us benefits in vain, right?" Why don't you pick out what you want? ”
Yang Gon laughed, "Champion Hou is really smart, over the years, there have been a few Khitan unscrupulous people who have run to the Han realm, and I ask you to return it." ”
Ye Hua nodded, "There are buying and selling, but it is a business, but my Da Zhou has always been generous and benevolent, and I have come from thousands of miles to invest, how can we send people out casually!" That's the work of barbarians, and we can't do it! ”
"You!"
Yang Gon only felt that his blood was surging, and he had the urge to faint after a stroke, and he suppressed his anger again and again, "Champion Hou, how about I take a thousand people in exchange for ten of you?" ”
Ye Hua still didn't agree, "That depends on who you want to change, if you change me, I'm afraid it won't be possible to send your emperor here!" ”
Yang Gon saw the sharp words on Da Zhou's side, so he didn't talk nonsense, he simply took out a list and handed it to Ye Hua.
"It's the ten people above!"
Ye Hua took it, "You go first, we have to verify the identities of these people." ”
Impatiently sent Yang Gon away, Ye Hua looked at the names of the people above, the first nine were all Khitans, either Yelu or Xiao, but the last one, only had a nickname, called a tiger! ”
Ye Hua hurriedly asked people to ask, where is this tiger sacred!
Soon news came, saying that a tiger was originally a robber from Yunzhou, fled to the Great Zhou, intended to raise troops to rebel, was arrested by the imperial court, sentenced to be executed after the autumn, and was about to be killed.
Ye Hua took a breath, it's really interesting, how could the robbers of Yunzhou run to the Daimyo's Mansion? Even if he raised troops to rebel, how could he still be targeted by the Khitan and named him?
"I think I should check this tiger carefully!"
Chai Rong nodded, "Pass on the order of the king, and immediately transfer the file." ”
Someone took Chai Rong's edict and went to transfer the file, and something even stranger happened, the file of a tiger case was actually burned in a fire a few days ago, and it was gone!
But when his subordinates returned, they heard some ordinary people say that this "one tiger" is famous and is one of the most hated heroes of the Khitan people!
"Looks like we're going to go to jail and have a look." Chai Rong became interested......
