At night, listening to the sound of the piano of the Hu people in the border gates, I was feeling sad, listening to the slight sound of tiles colliding on the roof, and then the window opened and closed, and a hazy shadow stood in front of the bed, and the slight breath was combined with a burst of old sandalwood fragrance.

Once upon a time, my female husband said that there is a feeling in the world, called thinking in the day and dreaming in the night, and I asked her, "If I really want to eat the crispy wheat candy of Aromatic Zhai, and my mother does not eat much, can I eat enough in my dreams?" ”

The gentleman thought for a while and said, "Probably yes, but you don't need to eat this sentence." ”

"What is that used for?"

"People, for people!" When the gentleman said this, his cheeks were slightly drunk, and his eyes were misty.

I was too young to understand what it meant, but now I do.

I miss him in front of me, I never forget him for a moment, and finally in the post house here, I saw him again in my dream.

"I thought about it, it seems that I owe you a gift, I heard that the girl and Lu are a big deal, this is for you!"

The sound is real, like the jade beads falling on the plate in the silent night, the fragrance is real, I can't believe that I slowly stretched out my hand, he grabbed my hand and put it on his chest, his heartbeat was steady and powerful, just like the afternoon when I first saw him, the emerald snake bit my arm, he hugged me strongly, I listened to his heartbeat with peace of mind, and let him carry me into the door of the Medicine Master Palace.

The gift of Ji Lu is a jade pendant, carved in the shape of a flower on the other side.

It is rumored that there is a god in the Heavenly Herb Garden, named Manzhu Fairy, because he fell in love with Sha Hua, who was also a god, he was driven down to the underworld by the Emperor of Heaven, and the two hugged each other and fell beside the Yellow Spring, dry bones and flowers, and since then the Yellow Spring is full of fire and red, all of which are dyed by this flower.

Those obsessive ghosts passed the Yellow Spring, looked back, only to see a hundred miles of flowers, and the person in the heart was nowhere to be seen, so Manzhu Sawa is also known as the other side of the flower, representing the unswerving love to death.

I sat up and pulled my waist-length hair, my hair jet black, like a painting splashed with ink, and thought to myself that maybe I should dress up better, but now I look like a drunkard, and he must be tired of me.

Zhao Li, who I hadn't seen for a month, had long hair, and he pinned it with a wooden hairpin, which I felt was an eyesore, so I pumped it for him, and replaced it with a hosta when I was a man.

"Would you like to go out and see the moon?"

"Yes! But I can't walk! ”

“……”

"Take me to the roof to see the moon, and I'll sing to you."

He hesitated for a moment, and finally picked me up,

The moonlight in Bauhinia Pass at night is surprisingly good, the surroundings are quiet, only the steady heartbeat of the people around me and the faint sandalwood, I think of the songs I hear from the women of the pass on weekdays.

Seeing the flowers speechless and tears like pouring, how many spring breezes complain goodbye, I don't know the outer road of Yumen Pass, and I went to the border city last night in my dream.

After that we sat like this, no one spoke, but I wanted to tell him that I was dancing well, and if he wanted to see it, I would show him.

Unfinished words, and unfinished dreams, only the jade pendant on the other side of the palm of his hand at dawn proved that he had been here last night.

Seven days later, he resigned from his second sister-in-law, and the second brother personally drove the carriage to Jiangling, and three days later he arrived at his uncle's house, where his mother was already there.

The second brother took the prepared gift, only rested for one night, changed horses and rushed to Jingzhou.

I was idle and hip-hop with my cousins and cousins, in fact, I was tired of such songs, they all said that I was the pride of the sky, and I deliberately lost to me in the horse hanging, and after a few days I lost interest, so I just stayed in the room.

My mother thought I was uncomfortable, so I invited a doctor to come and see, but I said that I was overthinking, and my mother patted me on the back and asked, "Does Zhu'er have something on your mind, is it okay to tell your mother?" ”

I obediently pillowed on my mother's lap, tried to make myself look sincere, and said with a choked voice: "Zhu'er misses Daddy!" ”

Finally, on the second day after the full moon of the little cousin, I set off for Kyoto.

In October, when the weather was already slightly cool, I sat in the car with a velvet collar and hood and watched the peasants working in the fields, and when we arrived in Kyoto, a group of soldiers in armor surrounded our carriage and horses.

Listening to the voice, it was like Li Shi, a subordinate of the general army of Ma who was guarding the capital.

"The Liao people gathered tens of thousands of troops to Yanmen Pass, the war was tight, and the grain and grass transported to the front line were robbed by a gang of thieves when they arrived in Dongping, and the lower officials were ordered to take people to investigate, and they didn't want to disturb the princess and Mrs."

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a team of about 2,000 people coming in unison.

When the war was afraid that the road was not very peaceful, the mother ordered the coachman to speed up the pace to rush home, and finally arrived in Kyoto when it was dark, and the mother folded her hands and chanted a Buddha silently.

The war continued to be tight, the Liao people used wheel tactics to attack in turn, and ordered a group of soldiers to sing day and night outside the pass, the enemy seemed to have high morale, our side was tired of coping, and the grain and grass have not been transported, the people began to panic, there was no way, Yang Shouyi, the general soldier of the city, had to collect grain on the spot first, and urgently reported to the imperial court to send reinforcements.

At the same time, a gang of thieves in the west colluded with the Liao people to drive a large number of refugees to Kyoto, and for a while they attacked left and right, and there was a mess in the court.

A large number of refugees poured into Kyoto, and martial law began in Kyoto, for fear that thieves would be mixed with the refugees.

At the same time, each family began to set up a shed to give porridge, my father is a big member, I want to set an example, there are three porridge sheds in the Prime Minister's house, I see that my mother is too busy, so she gave me a tube.

I covered my veil and took the maid to guard the porridge shed, afraid of robbing and pushing.

There was a mother and son in the distance, squeezed by the team on the side, and there was no wheel for a long time, I asked Hongxiu to bring someone over to ask, it turned out that the man who joined the army died on the battlefield The orphan and widow had no support, so they rushed to Beijing with the refugees.

The child in the woman's arms was a boy, three or four years old, and when I talked to the woman, I saw that he did not move, and the mother-in-law went to check on him, only to see that the child was hot all over his body and his breathing was weak.

I hurriedly asked the servant to carry the child to the hospital, and the woman also let us take it away, her eyes were blank, I gave her a bowl of porridge, she took it and drank it in small sips, and after drinking the porridge, the woman began to cry.

Then she shouted hysterically: "You dignitaries and nobles are now giving porridge, my man sacrificed his life for the country, the court not only did not take care of us, but also sent a group of brutes to rob our village, now what kind of good people are you pretending, what good people are you pretending!" After saying that, he fell prostrate on the ground and wept bitterly.

Some of the refugees in the queue knew her, and whispered: "Isn't this the daughter-in-law of Li Zhu in the West Village!" Her man died on the battlefield, the court requisitioned grain, took away the last ration of her family, and heard that he was forced to × by refugees when he entered Beijing, and he was still pregnant with a two-month-old child in his belly. ”

Everyone said that my life was good, but I never felt that it was good for me, but now when I look at this group of refugees queuing up to beg for food, I really feel that my life is good.

Aristocrats are born to live a life of fine clothes and food, the food to eat the finest part, the wine to drink the sweetest altar, but they don't know that there is a group of people in the world, they just want to fill their stomachs, no ideals, no ambitions, all their lives they are thinking about one thing, how to live!

The situation is becoming more and more severe, the war has not eased, and there is no place for refugees to evacuate.

The looted grain and grass have not been recovered, and the controversy in the court has gradually heated up.

Two months later, it began to snow in Kyoto, and there were only two or three families left who insisted on soup kitchen, and most of each family was reduced from the original two or three porridge shacks to one porridge shack.

There are still two porridge sheds left in my house, and in the afternoon, no one in the street that has only snowed heavily does not want to go out except for refugees wrapped in tattered quilts and huddled in the corners.

I thought about going to the porridge shed to have a look, Hongxiu took a ferret cloak and put it on for me, and took the stove to warm my hands, Cui Sheng held an umbrella, and the three of them walked towards the porridge shed with laughter.

There are many refugees around the porridge shed, the noise is constant, the original one person can get a bowl of porridge, a steamed bun, now in the next year, the war in front is tight, the price of rice has risen too high, each family will change to each person to send half a bowl of porridge, a small bit of steamed buns, the refugees are dissatisfied, so they around the porridge shed noisy, no matter how we persuade not to listen.

A swarthy and thin refugee shouted: "You dignitaries and dignitaries go around collecting the people's fat and people's ointment, and you give us these rice soups that can shine a shadow?" Your conscience calls the dog to eat? Everyone lifted the porridge shed, grabbed the food, and entered the imperial city to capture the dog emperor alive, and the queen mother of Da Liao will definitely wait for me to be knighted! With that, he pulled out a long knife.

A few men jumped out of the refugee pile, shouting slogans in their mouths, breaking into the porridge shack with knives and sticks in their hands, and slashing and killing them when they were stopped.

Suddenly, the family ran to call the officers and soldiers patrolling the city, and the two girls of red embroidery escorted me to run, and just now a very noisy refugee found the three of us.

"Brothers, there is a young lady from an official family here, catch it and exchange it for gold......

A group of refugees pounced on me like hungry wolves on the grassland, and was about to grab my clothes, but Hongxiu pushed me, and asked Cui Sheng to take me to run, and picked up the sticks dropped by the refugees on the ground to fight with a group of gangsters, and I turned around, just in time to see the long knife from her back straight through her chest.

The officers and soldiers patrolling the city arrived, and quickly controlled the few people who caused the accident, I held Hongxiu in my arms, blood gushed out of her mouth and stomach, she took my hand, and said in a weak voice: "Miss, don't cry, Hongxiu will not be by your side in the future, take care of yourself, don't get drunk in the middle of the night, don't be naughty, don't make Mrs. Xiangye angry, you will be punished, don't ...... Don't ......" said the hand hanging down softly.

Mother heard that something happened here, with the nursing home rushed over to take me back, the red embroidery was carried away, leaving only a place of red by the snow lined shockingly, my mother took me in her arms and gently patted my back and said: "If you want to cry, cry!" I threw myself into my mother's arms and began to cry.

The red-embroidered funeral lady didn't allow me to see it, she left this shell, and her soul didn't know where it would go, maybe there was really a Yin Si Hades, and a kind person like her should go to heaven, right?!

Everyone says that my life is good, and it is really good, and there are people who die for me, but no one in this world seems to have a reason to live than me, those refugees, red embroidered ......, they just want to live!
