Chapter 382: Choice
Last night, Ye Shaolong naturally had a lot of rain with Tang Feifei, and they all said that Xiao Bei was newly married, and the little couple could be described as dry firewood, out of control. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
After some tossing, Ye Shaolong was already physically and mentally exhausted, but he was in a happy mood, and he was satisfied with his wife and fell asleep. I thought there would be a better tomorrow, but I just fell asleep in the middle of the night. It was as if it was dawn as soon as the eyes were closed, and there was a knock on the door.
The dream was disturbed, Ye Shaolong was very angry, and after the scolding was ineffective, he went to open the door angrily. I saw the little emperor's eyes bloodshot, standing in front of the door with a hideous look.
Ye Shaolong's anger disappeared in an instant, and he coughed lightly, a trace of embarrassment appeared on his face. Tang Feifei suddenly arrived last night, and he was overjoyed for a while, but he forgot about the little emperor.
"Your Majesty ......."
Ye Shaolong called in a low voice, and the little emperor looked at him coldly, and then motioned for him to follow him to the stone bench in the courtyard.
"I've figured it out!" The little emperor opened his mouth and spoke.
"Hmm!" Ye Shaolong didn't know what the little emperor's choice was, so it was inconvenient to answer, so he just hummed lightly.
The little emperor didn't pay attention to Ye Shaolong, but said to himself: "I, I will no longer be the emperor in the future, and I will no longer call myself me." ”
"Your Majesty ......." Ye Shaolong was slightly surprised, listening to the tone of the little emperor, it seemed to be true.
The little emperor interrupted Ye Shaolong: "My name is Haoran, don't call me the emperor in the future, just call me Aixin Haoran." ”
"Love Xin Haoran?"
"That's right, it's Aixin Haoran, that's what I'm calling from now on. Also, I have dismissed all the eunuchs in the Imperial City, and I have given them enough money to send them back to their hometowns. But there are still more than a dozen people who have no relatives alive and are helpless, and these people still need your help to settle down. ”
Aixin Haoran was very calm from beginning to end, as if making such a decision had nothing to do with him.
Ye Shaolong also felt the determination of Aixin Haoran from his demeanor and performance. He still didn't disappoint himself, Ye Shaolong was very happy in his heart, just a dozen old eunuchs, this was just a trivial matter for him.
When he patted his chest and promised that it would be properly placed, he asked Aixin Haoran: "Then what are you going to do next?" ”
Aixin Haoran smiled: "I decided to go back to Yejiabao, I will not stay in the capital, and I will never interfere in how you arrange the capital in the future." I only hope that you will not let this imperial city be destroyed in the flames of war, this is my only request. ”
The imperial city is a symbol of the country and a witness of history, even if Aixin Haoran doesn't say it, Ye Shaolong will definitely not let it be destroyed.
"Don't worry, as long as I, Ye Shaolong, am alive for one day, I will guarantee that this imperial city will not be destroyed!" Ye Shaolong firmly assured Aixin Haoran.
"Well, I can trust your words! I decided to go back to Yejiabao now, do you need me to bring a message back? Aixin stood upright, looked at Ye Shaolong and said.
The latter shook his head: "Not for the time being, you are careful on the road!" ”
Aixin Haoran nodded, hugged his fists and left.
A generation of emperors changed their names and surnames and disappeared into the vast river of history.
Ye Shaolong's mood was also complicated for a while, he understood that the little emperor would have another life in the future. Unlike in real history, he is no longer a puppet of devils, nor will he live without dignity, he is no longer the emperor who needs to bear the infamy of a thousand years.
What will be the little emperor's life like in the future, Ye Shaolong doesn't know, the only thing he can do is what he can help. Next, only the little emperor will face it himself, and as a friend, Ye Shaolong can already pat his chest and no longer have any guilt towards the little emperor.
Life and death are fateful, whether it is good or bad, and in the future, you will have to rely on Aixin Haoran to face it by herself. While lamenting the fate of the little emperor, Ye Shaolong was also very confused about his future.
From the beginning, he just wanted to be a loser who just wanted to eat and wait for death, but fate made him involuntarily step by step to today. In this troubled world, he still couldn't escape, and he was still swept into the whirlpool of history.
There is no turning back when he opens the bow, even if Ye Shaolong wants to leave everything behind now and flee overseas with his family. But he knew that he could no longer leave and escape.
Since there is no escape, then there is only one choice to face, maybe in the future, the people around him will die in the war one by one, including himself.
It's really scary to think about it like this, but this is life, and if you live in a dream, you are likely to be devastated at any time.
The reality is cruel and doesn't give you too many choices, just like the little emperor. Only by choosing to face it can you truly let go of the package in your heart and live a relaxed and comfortable life.
The good mood was disturbed by the little emperor like this, and it was long gone, and Ye Shaolong didn't even have the heart to go back to sleep at this time.
I just went to wash up, called the iron tower as a companion, and went to the city together.
Out of the imperial city, strolling on the wide main street on horseback, except for the soldiers who passed by from time to time, Ye Shaolong could hardly see a few people.
It seems that the most prosperous capital in the past has become a veritable empty city. The people fled and fled, and those who remained were the old and weak who had been homeless before.
These people lived a very hard life in the city, all of them were yellow and thin, and their spirits were atrophied. He is indifferent to what is happening around him or what is happening.
Ye Shaolong walked from the front of the imperial city to the north gate, and found that all the people he saw were like this, there were hundreds. Frowning, Ye Shaolong asked the iron tower beside him: "How many people are left behind in the city now?" ”
Tie Ta recalled a little and said, "I heard Brother Su say last night, it seems that there are more than 2,000 people. ”
"Two thousand people ......."
Hearing this number, Ye Shaolong suddenly smiled bitterly. In other words, he will have to take care of these two thousand or so old and weak people who are not in production and are still riddled with diseases.
This is a big burden, and these people can't be left alone, they must be properly settled before the arrival of the people who have migrated from Yejiabao.
After thinking about it again, Ye Shaolong felt that it was necessary to go back and have a good count with Tang Feifei. Gather all these people together and manage them in one place.
With a decision in his heart, Ye Shaolong didn't go any further, the entire capital is now an empty city, and there is nothing. Except for more than 2,000 old, weak, sick and disabled, there is nothing to see.
Immediately, he urged the horse back to the imperial city, but as soon as he turned his horse's head and did not move forward, suddenly a dirty child rushed out, blocked his way, and cried out: "Save my brother, please save my brother......." ”
