Excerpt: In the eleventh year of the Taiyuan Dynasty, Emperor Huan contracted a disease and died, and Li Rongqi, the son of Empress Hongde, was appointed as the prince. Shi Qi is two years old, young and bright, and beautiful. Every year, he served as Guangluxun and Han Bingquan, the secretary of the Ministry of War, who was good and profitable, plotted rebellion, privately minted copper coins, and collected water from all over the world. The emperor was afraid that there would be a change, and the Duke of Tang was ordered to get a plan to protect the only son of the Tang Dynasty, Yu Shurenzhang, in order to assist Rong Qi in the future. In another year, Han colluded with the barbarians and led the rebels to behead the emperor in the court. So the hundred officials were shocked, the old relatives of the emperor, and the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty, almost none of them were spared. Later, he took his son Qi into exile, and his daughter Li Xiyi died young...... Guogong used the chaos of the Huan Chamber, entangled the righteous soldiers, and swept away the evil, but he was victimized by traitors and died in the battle of Tangyin. In the autumn of the same year, Han proclaimed himself emperor and changed his name to Pingkang. The change of Taiyuan is the end. ——"History of the Huan Dynasty Palace, Taiyuan Volume, Seventeenth Volume"

I have never seen a Buddha statue this big.

The dim candle flame swayed in the night, the Bodhisattva with the beads in her hand was gilded, the light lingered on her forehead, and the strange smile on the corner of my mouth made my body, which was already trembling from the cold, more and more out of control.

I hid under the offering table, it was pitch black, I couldn't see anything, I couldn't see anything, I didn't have to see the strangely dressed Central Plains people during the day, the leaves that could float on the water, the vermilion painted houses made of wood, the roads without grass, the colorful paper balls hanging all over the eaves......

Abu once told me that the Central Plains is actually like this, it is this hell on earth that makes me look forward to the moment and full of despair and suffocation. But I clearly remember that Abu once said that the Central Plains is like a rainbow after a rain and can connect two places, there are illusionists from the Western Regions who can change spells, there are candy blowers and shadow puppets that are more fun than riding horses and archery, and there are Manchu and Han banquets that are a hundred times more delicious than roasting whole sheep......

The rain outside the temple kept falling. I wanted to sleep, but now I'm cold and hungry, and the air is cold and wet, and I can't sleep. I remembered that every time A-Niang asked me to recite her "Grass Sutra", I could fall asleep, not to mention that there were many stiff and difficult original characters in it.

Bitter barley, the stem is green and large, the leaves are thin and strong, the flowers are large and bitter, the main treatment is dizziness, swelling and pain, rheumatism and paralysis; Longji, in the raw mountain stone, like a wan and thin, the stems and leaves are hanging down, the main treatment is phlegm obstruction, and the chest is full; Mangweed, dense branches and leaves, lovely Tuanluan, thick and fragrant leaves, the main treatment of head wind carbuncle, scabies...... Also, Kaoru, what is Kaoru......

I seem to be able to think of A-Niang smiling at me helplessly, a pair of generous and warm hands caressing the top of my hair.

But I can no longer see my mother, I can no longer see my brothers, they all died from the arrow. I will never forget the blazing fire on the Zanghu prairie where the soldiers were in chaos and the blood flowed like rivers in the day.

There are also Daddy and Fourth Brother, they were tied up and kneeling on the ground, I still clearly remember that Daddy only said one sentence before being killed: "Li Rongqi, you are actually ......"

Yes, Li Rongqi is the enemy who killed my clan, I must cheer up and avenge Zang Hu, Daddy and Fourth Brother. I can't just die on the enemy's territory!

Suddenly, a very soft footstep sounded in my ears, and the man outside seemed to have put something on the ground and hurried away. After a long time, I slowly lifted the cloth and climbed out of the offering table, the aroma was fragrant, it was the smell of meat and coriander, I hurriedly and urgently took the bowl of food, and directly picked it up with my hands.

The man must have spotted a down-and-out woman like me hiding here, as he had done the other day. Whoever he is, I will always see him as my first benefactor in the most difficult of my days.

Since God doesn't want me to die, there's no reason for me to sit and wait here.

In the battle between Huan Dynasty and Zang Hu, Li Rongqi was able to behead my father and fourth brother, it must be a high-ranking general in Dahuan, or a subordinate of a certain general, in short, he must be in Dahuan's army. And now Dahuan has returned to the court, listening to the Central Plains people who came to burn incense and worship the Buddha in the morning, the Jiuhan army is about to come to Qianyuan Pass, and my position is in Qianyuan Pass, maybe I can sneak into the army to find out the whereabouts of the enemy.
