Chapter 123: What if one day I suddenly go back?
The last emperor tells the story of Pu Yi, who shuttles back and forth between memories and reality, spanning sixty years, starting with becoming an emperor and eventually becoming an ordinary citizen.
A few months ago, Lin Luo let go of this film, wanting her to see what a laid-off emperor was like, but in the end, because the perception of the whole movie was too depressing, he didn't watch it again after watching it for half an hour.
And now it has been turned out by Jiang Li.
Lin Luo didn't know why she suddenly remembered to come to see this, but she didn't ask, just sat next to her and quietly watched with her. During this period, I also went to wash the dishes, brush the pot, and then came back to watch again, this time until the end.
The more than three-hour movie tells not only a person's life, but also that era that has undergone changes.
"It seems to be talking about people, but in fact, it is talking about the changes of the times. The great changes unseen in 3,000 years cannot be stopped by manpower. In the game, let alone a mediocre person like Pu Yi, even if he is amazingly talented, he is powerless to resist, he can only be coerced by the times to move forward, and finally become a part of the times. ”
Lin Luo's tone was quiet, not taking the opportunity to preach to Jiang Li, but watching this kind of movie will always have a lot of emotion, decades of ups and downs, through ups and downs, through the vicissitudes of life, and finally ushered in a new era.
Some of them are actively guiding the advent of this era, and some are resisting the arrival of this era, but no matter what it is, this era is still coming after all, helpless, excited, expectant, resistant, desperate, and even desolate, and finally run over by the wheel of history and become a silent past.
"So instead of resisting, rather than being angry, instead of being coerced forward, it is better to adapt to the changes, let go of the past, and take the initiative to welcome the new life in the new era, right?" Jiang Li tilted his head to look at him.
Lin Luo looked back sideways, listening to her tone, it didn't look like she was asking, but like a confirmation.
"What do you think?"
"I think it should be. It's just, have you thought about it. ”
"What have you thought about?"
"If one day. Why did I go back suddenly? Jiang Li turned his gaze back and looked at the movie that had been automatically paused, "I am different from this Pu Yi after all, he is in an era of change. The Qing Dynasty, where he lived, was only a few decades away from the new era, and I came here across thousands of years, and I was separated from this era by more than a thousand years. ”
"He needs to change himself according to the changes of the situation, I am in this era, and I do need to change myself, but what if I go back one day?"
Lin Luo opened his mouth and wanted to say that you may not be able to go back, but who can say for sure this kind of thing?
Jiang Li seemed to guess what he was thinking, "You come back here after you die, and I sometimes think that maybe when I die here, I will go back." But the situation between you and me is different: you are the soul wearing, I am the body, I came here inexplicably, maybe one day I will inexplicably go back. ”
"If one day I suddenly go back"
Speaking of this, she couldn't help but stop, and was silent for a while before saying, "What will you do?" ”
"Me"
"That's it."
Jiang Li interrupted him, and immediately stood up, "Go out with me." ”
"Okay."
There is still a month to go before the New Year, and the temperature is already very cold, but fortunately, it is close to noon, the sun is in the sky, and the sun has more or less dispelled the cold.
Lin Luo didn't know what her purpose was when she came out to take a walk, whether it was to relax, or to blow the wind, or to bask in the sun?
It's just that as she walked down the street and saw a bubble tea shop, she went over to buy two cups of milk tea, one cup in each person's hand, and then continued to walk on the road, silent.
"That." Perhaps wanting to break this silent atmosphere, Lin Luomo held his warm cup and said loudly: "I thought about it just now, if you really go back one day, with what you have seen and heard in modern times in the past six months, it will definitely help you govern the country."
The development of the feudal imperial system for 2,000 years is generally understood today, and it can be avoided in many places. You can still do some reforms, but you must be cautious about this, the country has been established for more than 100 years, and the vested interest groups have been very stable.
Hearing him say this, Jiang Li slowly frowned, and then frowned deeper and deeper, and couldn't help but interrupt: "How do you say these words like you mean goodbye?" Especially the last ones, it was like a request before leaving. ”
"Just remember to talk about it."
"Don't say it, it's not that I don't understand the way of governing the country you said."
Besides, it sounds like it's going to say goodbye, and it's a little sentimental for no reason.
Jiang Li paused, and wanted to ask him, what would happen to you if I went back?
But I don't want to ask, as if I am worried that the answer I get is not what I want to hear, or the answer is too out of line, so I don't know how to answer.
Lin Luo saw a casserole shop not far away, "Are you hungry, why don't we go have a meal?" ”
"Are you hungry?"
"Not really, just ask you."
"I'm not hungry either."
"Then go around again, if you can't go to the supermarket to buy some food, let's go home and cook and eat by ourselves."
"Okay, let's go to the supermarket."
"Then let's cook hot pot at home and eat?"
In cold weather like this, it is very suitable for cooking hot pot, visiting the supermarket, buying all kinds of ingredients, going back and cleaning, preparing vegetables, eating two or three points, and waiting for four or five o'clock after eating, and there is no need to eat dinner.
"Bang"
Throwing the finished milk tea into the trash can on the side of the road, Jiang Li put his hand back in his pocket, and a few people riding electric cars drove by on the road, she glanced sideways a few times, and suddenly remembered that someone had said that he wanted to buy an electric car before, and then let himself hug his waist in the back.
No, he said let himself ride, he was holding his waist in the back.
Hum..
Thinking of this, Jiang Li couldn't help but hum and thought about it. Oh, this guy probably doesn't want to do that now, he said he was going to give up last night.
Maybe I really gave up.
She looked down at the two hands in her pocket, if she put it before, that guy would definitely find a way to hold hands, but today from the time he went out to the present, he just walked beside him, and he didn't mean this at all.
"What are you doing standing in front of the trash can? Touching the scene, remembering the day you just crossed over? ”
Lin Luo had already walked a little away at this time, and seeing that she hadn't followed, he turned around and turned back. I remember that on the day the emperor first came, the half bag of plastic bottles he was carrying was picked up in front of the trash can. Those plastic bottles are still in the house now.
Jiang Li didn't speak, just turned her head to stare at him, and when she saw that Lin Luo was uncomfortable, she asked out loud: "You said last night that you were going to give up, have you given up now?" ”
