Chapter 312: The Most Worthless Thing Is Human Life
Su Ruan had already known from Xie Qingheng that most of the 800 soldiers who accompanied Su Xuanmin to defend the city survived, but they were afraid of infecting the whole city because of the plague, and they were later killed by Su Xuanmin himself.
In terms of truth, Su Xuanmin is not an enemy to these people?
Su Ruan is not an ignorant child, and he doesn't care about right and wrong in everything.
If she was really so obsessed, she would only be blinded by hatred like she was in her previous life.
Su Ruan's voice was hoarse: "Get up quickly, I'm not in good health, I can't get off the ground, do you still want me to help you?" ”
Xie Yuan also said on the side: "Ruan Ruan's body is still sick, and the doctor has instructed him not to be overjoyed and angry, so get up quickly." ”
When those people heard this, they saw that Su Ruan's eyes were slightly red, so they hurriedly got up.
Su Ruan said: "You don't have to thank me like this, I didn't do it all for you this time, and the one in front of the palace gate, it wasn't me who helped you, it was you who helped yourself and solved my predicament." ”
If it weren't for these people, she would have been on her own, and I'm afraid it would be useless to die there.
Who cares if she lives or dies alone?
It is precisely because of these people that they can force Emperor Ming Xuan to retreat and let the imperial court retry the case of Jingnan, not only for Su Xuanmin and others, but also to save her life, and even let her get out of the situation in that situation.
In terms of truthfulness, Su Ruan still has to thank them.
Su Ruan said seriously: "The original incident has passed, you don't have to take it to heart anymore, and you can live a good life after returning to Jingnan." ”
"In addition to the normal pension, the imperial court should also have another reward, after a while after the imperial court's will is sent to Jingnan, it will definitely send people to prepare for the construction of the Loyal Martyrs' Hall, and I think it will also let the Jingzhou officials take care of you one or two more."
"You are all loyal family members, if you have any difficulties in the future, you can go to the local officials, and if there is something really difficult to decide, you can also send someone to inform me."
"If I can, I'll try to help you."
The woman was full of gratitude: "Thank you, Miss Su." ”
The people behind him also said, "Thank you, Miss Su." ”
Jingnan and these people knew that Su Ruan was not in good health, and when she went out, she was surrounded by clothes with three layers inside and three layers outside, and her little face was sunk in the collar of white fluff, which looked extremely thin.
The woman said, "It's cold outside, Miss Su should go into the back room." ”
Someone quickly got a carbon basin and quickly coaxed the house warm.
Xie Yuan pushed Su Ruan aside, and the others dispersed, leaving only the woman who had spoken to Su Ruan in the first place.
The woman's surname was Xue, and everyone called her Xue's sister-in-law.
Su Ruan looked around and said, "When are you going to go back to Jingnan?" ”
Sister-in-law Xue said: "We will leave in the next two days, we have other relatives in our family, and the deceased person Zhaoxue, we also want to go back as soon as possible, without the messy charges, we should be able to have a good year this year." ”
In previous years, the people in their family were charged with crimes, and the dead were a hundred and knew nothing, but the living were difficult.
Their husbands, their sons, their fathers......
They are saddled with treason, how good can they be for those who are alive?
Not to mention anything else, even going out to buy some rice and grain will be difficult for others.
Now that the people in the family have been revealed, and the emperor has also issued a holy decree, they will always have peace when they go back.
Su Ruan could also guess that Sister-in-law Xue and the others had a hard time in the past two years, so she nodded: "I have worked hard for you in the past two years, but the capital is a place of right and wrong, so it's better to leave early." ”
She paused:
"The imperial court has already sent people to collect the bones for their uncles, but they were infected with the plague when they died, and they were buried together and buried in the ground, I am afraid it is difficult to distinguish."
"I estimate that according to Your Majesty's wishes, the Martyrs' Hall may be built directly in the place where they were buried, you ......"
Sister-in-law Xue hurriedly said, "Miss Su, don't worry, we all know this." ”
She smiled:
"Actually, I'm not afraid of Miss Su's jokes, we came this time with the heart of death."
"We are all just ordinary people, timid and afraid of death, if there is really a way to live, we may not have the courage to come to the capital." ”
"We are all forced to live in Jingzhou, thinking that instead of just staying up day by day, year after year, so that the young family will not be able to raise their heads in the future, and bear the charge of a traitor for the rest of their lives, it is better to follow Lord Qi and fight with you."
It was the first time that Su Ruan knew this, and there was some surprise in her eyes: "Is there anyone else in your family?" ”
Sister-in-law Xue said: "Yes, I also have an eldest son, and I have a grandson who has just been born. ”
Su Ruan's eyes widened, she also thought that these people could come to the capital because they didn't have much to worry about at home, but how could they ...... Aren't they afraid that their families will be implicated afterwards?
Su Ruan thought of it and asked.
Sister-in-law Xue said: "Of course I'm afraid, it was the persuasion of the people sent by Lord Qi from door to door that moved us. ”
"When we came, if there were other people in the family, Lord Qi had already arranged for them to hide, and he also prepared another way out for them, and gave them money, even if we died in the capital, they could go to other places to live well."
Su Ruan's heart was moved.
Sister-in-law Xue continued: "Lord Qi is a good person, he told us all the consequences truthfully, let us choose whether to come to the capital or not, at that time, many people retreated, and only those of us who were willing to give it a try. ”
"We originally thought that even if we failed, we wouldn't implicate our family, and they would be able to survive, but we didn't expect it to happen, not only did we live, but also let our family no longer have to bear those notories."
Sister-in-law Xue touched her sideburns when she spoke, and she was a little happy for the rest of her life.
Where did the common people come from so many great truths, all they want is to be able to live well.
To put it mildly.
If those defenders of the city were still alive and well as relatives after they died, how many people would be willing to take the risk?
The most valuable thing in this world is human life, and the most valuable thing is human life.
When they came to the capital this time, it was part of them to ask for justice, but more of them were forced to do so.
The money given by Qi Wenfu was enough to make them tempted, and they were suffering from those crimes, coupled with the guilt of Su Xuanmin, and the unwillingness of the people in their families after death, so they agreed to come to the capital.
Su Ruan listened to Sister-in-law Xue's words, even if she only said a few words, Su Ruan could still think of how much effort Qi Wenfu could talk about moving these people and how much effort was wasted in it.
She was amazed at how fearful these people were.
Now they know that it was because Qi Wenfu left a way out for them that they dared to fight to the death.
Su Ruan's heart was extremely complicated for a while.
