(Thanks to Lingnan Yizhimei's monthly ticket, thanks to the 66226633 for the reward, thanks to the old bird who reads the book for the crazy reward) Chapter 271
After nightfall, the cool breeze is blowing, and after the scorching heat of the day dissipates, everyone on the peak rarely ushers in the most comfortable time of the day; The peak is high and the wind is strong, and the mosquitoes have no place to stand, and many guards take off their shirts and lie on the hot sand and gravel with their chests open, so that the warm sand irons out the exhaustion.
During the day, the frenzied attack of the Tartars took the lives of the four officers with knives and two of Song Nan's personal guards, and five others were hit by rockets, and the other Cheng DΓΉ was injured, and there were only sixteen people left on the peak who could fight, all of them were exhausted, their eyes were red, and their spirits and bodies were on the verge of collapse.
Of course, the difficulty is not only that the mental exhaustion is not as simple as the lack of manpower, Liu Jin's negligence led to the burning of dry food, the only thing that can survive is the thin layer of clear water that survived in the bucket, and the shotgun is about to run out, originally there were only sixty rounds of ammunition per person, and the consumption of several days is now only five or six rounds per person, and no matter how powerful it is, it can't withstand the Tartars' life-threatening fight.
Song Nan's head was as big as a bucket, sitting on the edge of the big pit and looking at a pile of fire lit by the arrow shaft that came up, frowning and thinking of a way, tomorrow the day will be over, and the water will be exhausted, according to his own estimate, the reinforcements will arrive around the ninth and tenth day, but in this case, everyone will starve to death and die of thirst if they can't be rescued, but how is it good.
Zhengde came slowly under Liu Jin's support, and sat next to Song Nan, Song Nan was busy getting up and saluting, Zhengde waved his hand and said: "Don't get up, save some strength, I know that you are in a heart, I came to tell you, you have done what you can do, I am very grateful to you." β
Song Nan said: "The emperor must not be discouraged, he must not give up; We have traveled 9,999 miles on the way of 10,000 miles, and we can reach it by gritting our teeth. β
Zhengde sighed and said: "Don't comfort me, I know very well in my heart that I naturally have the same tone as you in front of everyone during the day, but after thinking about it at night, I still have a number in my heart; Don't pretend to be confident, I know you're in the hearts of all people, and I'm ready. β
Song Nan bowed his head and was silent, Zhengde is very smart, his absurd appearance is actually a disguise, but he is actually a smart person in his heart, and his heart is also very open-minded, which is extremely rare as an emperor.
Liu Jin wiped his tears lightly on the side, Zhengde's stomach rumbled, and the heavy atmosphere was suddenly diluted, Zhengde laughed at himself: "Look at me, I haven't eaten for a day and it's already like this, I suddenly blamed myself for how shameful it was to waste delicious food in the palace that day, if I can get out of trouble and return to the palace, I vow not to waste a bowl of rice and a mouthful of soup again." β
Song Nan smiled and said: "After returning to Beijing, the minister sent a hundred first-grade ducks into the palace to enjoy the emperor." β
Zhengde clicked his lips, stretched his neck and swallowed dry spit: "Then I will lie in the roast duck pile and sleep for three days, eat when I wake up, and sleep when I am full." β
Song Nan laughed and said, "The ministers are afraid to blame the emperor for not going to the early dynasty." β
Zhengde waved his hand and said, "What's wrong with them, if it weren't for them...... Hey, don't talk about it......"
Liu Jin said to Song Nan in a low voice: "Lord Song, can you think of a way, everyone is touching their bodies to see if they can find something to eat, the emperor is grunting with hunger, we can't be a courtier." β
Song Nan stretched out his hand and took out a dagger from his arms and handed it over: "Father-in-law Liu cut a piece of meat, my level of barbecue is still there, and I guarantee that the emperor can eat comfortably." β
Liu Jin's face turned red, and as soon as he frowned, he stretched out his hand to take the dagger, Song Nan smiled and put the dagger back and said, "Father-in-law Liu is really cutting?" β
Liu Jin breathed a long sigh of relief, but his face was righteous and awe-inspiring: "Our family is what we say, and for the sake of the emperor, our family will not hesitate to take the dagger, where do you want to eat the meat for the emperor?" β
Zhengde waved his hand and said: "I don't eat, I don't eat human flesh, you two don't scare me." β
Song Nan laughed and said, "The emperor thinks that your father-in-law Liu's meat is too old, where is Su'er?" β
Not far away, Dai Su'er, who was sitting in the shadows with Princess Kangning, got up and replied, "The little maid is here." β
Zhengde was stunned and said: "Song Nan, I said that I don't eat human flesh, and I won't eat this maid's meat no matter how tender it is." I'd rather starve to death. β
Liu Jin was stunned, this Song Nan is better than himself, and he actually wants to cut the meat of the servant girl to feed the emperor, but it is really ruthless, although killing this servant girl can make everyone eat a few meals, and the hope of survival is also greatly increased, but after all, he has lost another round, and the emperor must be more serious to Song Nan in his mind.
Liu Jin was upright and cranky, but he heard Song Nan laugh and said: "Your Majesty, the ministers don't want to kill people and eat, cannibalism is a matter of beasts, how can it be done?" The little maid Su'er can play a little song, but the minister just wants her to play a song to relieve everyone's love and hunger. β
Zhengde suddenly smiled and said, "I see, this is not bad, I want to hear it." β
Song Nan said to Dai Su'er: "Did you hear that?" Let's play a song, is the jade flute still there? β
Dai Su'er said in a low voice: "Yes, but the little maid doesn't want to play." β
Song Nan was stunned for a moment, and Liu Jin over there had already shouted: "You slave, the emperor wants to listen to your disobedience, don't you want to live?" β
Dai Su'er's hair was scattered, her face was dirty, and she had no usual demeanor, but her body stood straight, pursing her mouth and saying nothing.
Song Nan knew what he meant, and said to Liu Jin: "Father-in-law Liu, please go to the cliff to rest, and I will serve the emperor." β
Liu Jin understood that the little maid was coming for herself, and the reason why she didn't want to play was because she was there; Thinking that Dai Su'er's father was Dai Mill, who committed suicide by his own court staff, Liu Jin couldn't help but shudder, it turned out that he had so many enemies on this peak, in addition to the emperor and princess, it was really not easy for him to survive.
The hero doesn't suffer the loss in front of him, Liu Jin knows that he can't annoy Song Nan at this time, otherwise Zhengde may not be able to protect himself, so he immediately got up and said: "It's okay, the emperor, the old slave's waist also hurts badly, go and lie down there for a while, if the emperor has a call to say hello." β
Zhengde waved his hand, Liu Jin limped and disappeared in the darkness, Song Nan said to Dai Su'er gently: "You play a song to relieve the emperor's fatigue, and the emperor may reward you when he is happy." β
Dai Su'er understood Song Nan's words, what can be rewarded on this peak, it is obvious that he wants to take the opportunity to ask the emperor to remove his slavery, but Dai Su'er remembered what Song Nan said, once she gets rid of slavery, Song Nan will return her freedom, and then she can leave the Song Mansion, but is that really what she wants?
Zhengde nodded and said: "Song Nan mentioned your matter to me, now I think about it, your father is loyal, but his temperament is a little stronger, and now I am trapped here, and I have thought a lot about the past, and I don't say right or wrong, but your slavery can be removed for you now, and from today on, you will be free; If I can get out of trouble and return to Beijing, your deeds as a protector will be enough to offset my father's sins, and I will reward you heavily. β
Zhengde did not explicitly say that Dai Mo was not guilty, that is because if Dai Mo was rehabilitated, Liu Jin's behavior that day would be attacked by the ministers, and Dai Mo was not guilty Liu Jin was guilty, that is, he made a mistake in handling the collective letter of the foreign court that day, and it was also improper to depose dozens of civil officials, this is a matter of principle, and Zhengde will naturally not let go; It is another thing to be a slave to be a slave to be a grace and a reward.
Dai Su'er's tears swirled in her eyes, stretched out her sleeves and gently wiped away the tears: "Thank you, Emperor, but the jade flute has been broken and can't be played, so the slave family will sing a little song to the emperor and Song Gongzi." β
Song Nan clapped his hands and said, "Okay, you can also sing songs?" β
Dai Su'er said: "If the slave family doesn't sing well, the emperor and Song Gongzi will listen to it." β
Zhengde smiled and said: "In the barren mountains and mountains, it is a blessing to be able to listen to music, I am not picky; Sister Huang, come and listen to the music. β
Zhu Xiufu moved over, her hungry eyes were full of stars, and as soon as she sat down next to her, she leaned directly on Song Nan's shoulder, Song Nan was embarrassed and wanted to hide, but she couldn't bear it; The baptism of blood and fire in the past few days has allowed this noble princess to follow everyone through the test of life and death, and face the struggle of life and death, her expression is enough to exceed Song Nan's imagination, and Song Nan's impression of her has also changed greatly; But Song Nan knew that he could never entangle with her anymore, but on this peak, it was unknown whether he could survive, and Song Nan couldn't bear to be too ruthless.
Zhengde's behavior towards Zhu Xiufu was already commonplace, so he saw Dai Su'er cough lightly twice, cleared his throat and sang in a low voice: "It turns out that Yin Ziyan is all over the place, and it seems that it is all paid to the broken well." β
Dai Suer's dehydrated voice was hoarse and low, but it sounded like a different taste, a different kind of love.
"The beautiful scenery of a good day is a day, and the courtyard ...... be happy"
"Flying towards the twilight roll, clouds and clouds, rain and wind, smoke and waves painting boats."
"Where did we meet? Looking at each other, there is no word about the benefits of meeting each other. β
The voice is tactful, like a gentle hand brushing the hearts of everyone, both bleak and gentle.
The guards who were lying on the top of the peak and looking up at the starry sky listened quietly with their ears spent, Song Nan closed his eyes and let the sound of the song slowly float in his heart, and he couldn't help but think of the people in the capital, under the same round of stars in the sky, what are the family members in the capital thinking at the moment? What are you doing? But what about missing them so strongly and longing to return to them?
After a song, everything was silent, Song Nan slowly exhaled, opened his eyes and looked at Dai Su'er, but saw Dai Su'er's eyes flickering, as if there were tears, and he was looking at himself silently.
