Chapter 160: Military Prostitutes
The social atmosphere in the early Tang Dynasty was far from being as open as it was later, and women still attached great importance to chastity at this time. It was only later that the Tang Dynasty broke through the Turks, and Li Er implemented the assimilation of all the people, which made the atmosphere of the Tang Dynasty become open. Later, it was naturally Gao Yang's enlightener who had extramarital love......
But this is all in the future, and now for these girls who have lost their virginity, it is estimated that no one will take them in if they are sent back. I'm afraid that their parents will also drive them away directly. If they encounter stubbornness, it is estimated that they will be lynched to death.
This is not Qin Ze's imagination, it is completely not born in that era, you will not understand that kind of custom.
After a rough inventory, in addition to those strong men, there are more than twenty girls left. They were all about fifteen or sixteen years old, but Qin Ze still saw a few children who were only thirteen or fourteen years old inside.
was also squatting there like a walking corpse, Qin Ze walked up to hand food to one of them, she held it like a wild cat and ate it, and slowly lay down while eating. Then slowly lift up your clothes......
This was a subconscious action, but Qin Ze felt distressed again. It's not hard to imagine what really happened to her.
I'm afraid in her heart, as long as she is given food to eat, her body doesn't matter what she has. Whether this person is a robber or Qin Ze......
Gritting his teeth, Qin Ze tidied up her clothes, then stood up again, beckoned Chen Yanguan to order him: "Give them something to eat, and send these men back early tomorrow morning." ”
"And what about these?" Chen Yanguan glanced at the girl squatting on the ground and asked.
"Let them follow the team." Qin Ze forced out a sentence.
"This~" Chen Yan was stunned, he had never encountered such a situation. In the past, after they rescued the captives, they were repatriated according to their place of origin......
Qin Ze saw that Chen Yanguan looked like he wanted to speak and stopped, but he grinned and said with an extremely exaggerated wry smile: "Do you want me to send them back?" ”
"Second Lieutenant Mingjian." Chen Yanguan bowed, but said without refutation.
In fact, neither he nor Cheng Huailiang are qualified generals, and real generals will not hesitate at all when faced with this situation. But after all, they are only fifteen or sixteen-year-old children, and their hearts naturally have not reached that point.
Cheng Huailiang didn't know how to help them, so he handed over this hot potato to Qin Ze, because he knew that Qin Ze was softer than himself.
"Hmph, you come and tell me. What happened to the girls who were sent back in the past? Qin Ze's face was cold, and he still asked unrelentingly.
Chen Yanguan also shook his head with a wry smile at this time, he had long known that this would be the result. Cheng Lao Demon mentioned this matter when he came out, and they naturally knew that Qin Ze and the two of them were not ruthless enough, so sometimes they needed to admonish them.
"The army is full of men, if you stay......"
Chen Yanguan explained in a low voice, but as soon as he was halfway through his words, he was interrupted by Qin Ze: "Let me tell you, what will happen if they send it back." If you are lucky, you can become a maid and a servant, and you can spend the rest of your life. Those who are unlucky are directly abandoned, have no land and no food, and finally starve to death in the wilderness. If you have a bit of style, you will be accepted as an official prostitute, or a domestic prostitute. Some will even be sent directly to the army and become military prostitutes......"
Speaking of this, Qin Ze couldn't go on, it wasn't that his sympathy was overflowing, it was really the actions of the girl who was only twelve years old before, which deeply pierced Qin Ze's heart.
"My subordinates naturally know this, but if you stay in the army, it's not a way." Chen Yanguan also smiled bitterly, feeling a headache for meeting such a benevolent general.
At this time, a young girl suddenly stood out in the crowd behind her, she was a little older, almost seventeen or eighteen years old, and she was also beautiful and handsome.
She first said to Qin Zeshi: "The little woman's body has long been filthy, if she hadn't thought that one day she would be able to go home to meet her old mother, she would have committed suicide by hanging herself." The general really can't bother with us, so he just asks the general to give me a white silk. When I go home and see the high hall, I will pray for the general. ”
"Please do it, sir!" The girls who were squatting on the ground also echoed at this time, and they all stood up and bowed to Qin Ze.
The Tang Dynasty did not kneel, so kneeling has always been just a way to sit upright. It was only after the popularity of chairs that people found that when people knelt on the ground and prostrate at their feet, there would be a feeling of being on top, which would evolve into kneeling.
And before that, this bowing was already the same as the later kneeling. Therefore, this gift also made Qin Ze feel even more uncomfortable.
"Hey, system, why don't you talk at this time?" Qin Ze sighed lightly and took the initiative to ask towards the system. He was really afraid that the system would be impulsive and let him promise to give them Bai Aya's wish.
"Do you really want to?" Unexpectedly, the system actually took care of Qin Ze, but after saying this, he added: "The system will not accept the wish that the host cannot fulfill. ”
After receiving a positive answer from the system, Qin Ze was also relieved, and his face was a lot more relaxed at the moment. However, when facing these girls, he still said with a straight face: "You were saved by me, and I didn't agree that no one should be allowed to die." From today onwards, you are a part of my Nanding Army, and no one should think about secretly hanging the beam. ”
"Ah~" All the girls were pale again, Qin Ze meant, didn't he just want to take them all into military prostitutes? And this is no different for them than staying in the hands of robbers.
Just when their faces were like ashes, Qin Ze said again: "Go and wash them all, and tomorrow I will personally escort you back to your hometown to meet your high hall." ”
When these girls heard Qin Ze's first half of the sentence, they all lowered their heads and their bodies began to slide softly, but as soon as they heard that they were going to send themselves home to see their parents, everyone's eyes suddenly lit up.
In this era of filial piety, what supports them to persist is to think that one day they can return to their parents. Although they all know that their home will most likely not take them in for the sake of fame. But being able to meet each other like this has already made them very satisfied. So now when he heard that Qin Ze was going to send him back, he was naturally overjoyed.
"From now on, you all have a new identity, and you will be a nurse in my Datang Army from now on. There is no one in the team to bully you, you are free. After Qin Ze finished speaking, he didn't wait for them to respond, who still had the leisure to meet Qin Ze at this moment, they were all immersed in great happiness.
With a long sigh, Qin Ze shook his head and walked to the side. In the shadows, Cheng Huailiang walked out of it, came to Qin Ze's side and patted it gently.
"Are you getting more and more skilled in your?" Qin Ze laughed and joked with Cheng Huailiang, his mood was too heavy now, and he desperately needed to be active.
Cheng Huailiang heard this, but he smiled, patted Qin Ze's shoulder and said with a smile: "Before I came out, my father confessed, the basin can be casually deducted on your head, anyway, you are used to it." ”
Although these words sounded very desperate, Qin Ze still smiled, deliberately increased his strength, patted Cheng Huailiang's shoulder and said, "I really plan to stay with these people, I hope they can live safely here......"
"Of course I know." Cheng Huailiang stopped Qin Ze's words, and said: "Don't worry, these veterans are all family people, and they also know how to measure things best, so you don't have to worry about this." ”
The two of them tacitly patted each other on the shoulder, and then walked to the side. Now that the shopkeeper Zheng there must have counted everything, it is estimated that the soldiers are waiting for Qin Ze and them to share the spoils.
What Qin Ze didn't expect was that as soon as he walked over with his front foot, Sun Simiao on the side greeted him with an anxious face.
Qin Ze was stunned for a moment and was about to ask a question, when he suddenly heard the voice of the system coming: "Please ask the host to complete Sun Simiao's wish task of making alcohol, you can get three wish points by completing this task, and rejecting this task host will lose Sun Simiao's trust." ”
I never thought that I had just praised the system, and in the blink of an eye, I turned my face and didn't recognize people. Regardless of what the task was, seeing these three wish values already made Qin Ze have an ominous premonition.
But if he refused, he would lose Sun Simiao's trust, which made Qin Ze a little baffled.
When he was still confused, Sun Simiao had already walked up, pulled Qin Ze to the side, and said as he walked: "Qin Gongzi, we have wine, we can make alcohol." ”
It was also the first time Qin Ze had seen Sun Simiao lose his temper like this, but after listening to his words, he was relieved.
It turned out that this time they broke through Qijiazhai and found a wine cellar in one of the underground areas of the village. All of them are millet wine, and there are hundreds of jars. Presumably, these robbers also stored it for celebration.
Just understood this, but Qin Ze was even more helpless. I also understand why the system divides this task into three wishes. Because the Tang people have always loved wine, this is true for these robbers, and it is naturally the same for these soldiers.
According to the past practice, after the great victory, the soldiers should be feasted. And it stands to reason that this wine should naturally be shared with everyone.
And this is not what makes Qin Ze the most desperate, what he is most desperate about is that when he walked over, he clearly saw more than a hundred wolves staring at the piles of wine jars.
For those of them who have just experienced a fight, having a drink after the big battle is like eating chilled watermelon in the heat, if it weren't for Qin Ze and Cheng Huailiang not speaking, it is estimated that these people would have rushed up long ago.
Cheng Huailiang was originally following Qin Ze's side, but as soon as he heard that Sun Simiao wanted these wines, he turned around and disappeared directly.
He didn't want to arouse public outrage, so he naturally wanted to buckle this basin on Qin Ze's head.
Qin Ze: ......
