"That has been happening for almost a hundred years. Bai Luoshang habitually touched the empty wine gourd with his hand, and his face was full of doubts, "I heard that in that battle, the Qianzhu Kingdom lost 10,000 people, but the Southern Xia Kingdom did not lose a single soldier." Because of this, this Tonghu Mountain is regarded as a strange place that can be compared to the Ghost Island Dark Valley, and it is also from that time that no one dares to easily lead troops to attack Southern Xia. But I don't quite understand, the Qianzhu Kingdom has always ruled the country with benevolence, righteousness, culture and etiquette, how could it be against the soldiers of the Southern Xia Kingdom because of a cup of tea?"

After Qiu Lifeng heard this, he just snorted coldly, neither light nor heavy, just so that the two who spoke could hear it clearly.

Bai Luoshang stared at him for a while, and then asked him strangely, "Do you think what I said was inappropriate?"

Qiu Lifeng said with undisguised disdain: "You are not a master, so naturally you don't know the mind of that master. Don't you think you're too stupid to speculate on a person's mind like this?"

Bai Luoshang thought about this sentence carefully, and couldn't help but be secretly surprised.

Although Qiu Lifeng's words are simple, the deep meaning of the words is not simple at all.

The Venerable Men are, of course, those who are supreme in power, and these people often feel that they are omnipotent. It is precisely because of this that they often act in a way that is not extreme, one by one, one by one, self-esteem, fearless, and finally becomes more and more rigid and self-serving, and insists on going their own way.

The more powerful a person is, the less he can endure the betrayal and disobedience of others, and this mentality seems to have become the common mentality of all kings since ancient times. Challenging the imperial power is the most intolerable thing for the Venerable Master.

The monarch of Qianzhu liked Yingrihong, but when Yingrihong was gone, he felt very angry, so he ordered troops to be sent to ask for guilt against Nanxia.

However, this logical idea only flashed in Bai Luosheng's mind, and he completely rejected it.

Although Bai Luoshang didn't know anything about the monarch of Qianzhu who had passed, Bai Luoshang was sure that no matter what, that monarch would never really do such a ridiculous and mediocre thing because of a cup of tea.

From Qiu Lifeng's narrative, Bai Luoshang came up with an idea:

The broken tribute of Gongcha seems to be more like a reason for Qianzhu to send troops to the Southern Xia Kingdom.

If you want to take the initiative to launch a campaign, you always need a reason and an excuse to send troops.

As a generation of emperors, you can't do without certain ambitions. If the monarch of Qianzhu Country did not have such incomparably lofty ambitions, how could he have laid such a big country and have such a glorious dynasty?

Only a man with the ambition to dominate the world will not have his dynasty headed for decline or demise.

The former emperor of the Qianzhu Kingdom must have had this kind of ambition, but in this way, his reason for sending troops will inevitably attract criticism from the world. You must know that Qianzhu has always been the most polite and benevolent, whether it is true benevolence or righteousness, they will not openly do such a thing that will cause criticism.

Every king and the king of the people is most afraid of the pen in the hands of the historian.

If the monarch of the Qianzhu Kingdom really used the Southern Xia Kingdom's broken tribute and Yingri Red as an excuse to lead his troops to attack the Southern Xia Kingdom, he would definitely fall into the tongue and be infamous for a hundred years, and he could also tarnish the history of the Qianzhu Kingdom.

Qiu Lifeng saw Bai Luosheng's heavy contemplation, and couldn't help but sneer again, and said: "I'd rather be a hero who deceives the world, and I can't be a fool who follows the world." Whether it is brilliant or mediocre, it is only a few pages of records in the history books, and it will pass by as soon as you turn it, who will really care. ”

Bai Luoshang still didn't want to believe it, "This doesn't look like what a generation of kings would do, let alone the monarch of Qianzhu Country." After all, the name of the history and the future of the country often go hand in hand, I think that the famous and virtuous king would never make such a mistake. ”

"You know the king?"

"I've heard a little, but I don't think he's a maven. ”

Qiu Lifeng looked at Bai Luoxiang and felt that his serious tone sounded very ridiculous, "You don't even know about the living, and you won't even understand those who are dead." ”

was ridiculed, and it was undeniable that Qiu Lifeng's words were indeed very reasonable, but Bai Luoshang still didn't believe it.

As far as he knows and can be regarded as "understanding", the Qianzhu royal family is a self-respecting and humble person, every word and deed, is afraid of the emperor and the heavens, and the ministers are afraid of the people, not only to call the will of heaven, but also to conform to the will of the people, both afraid of the people's opinions, and afraid of historians.

Therefore, he did not believe that the late Emperor of Qianzhu would be a person who had no regard for life.

Qiu Lifeng saw that Bai Luoshang didn't speak, and continued to say with a smile: "The world is constantly rotating in reincarnation, and it is changing rapidly. The merits and demerits are all written by posterity, even if it is a pen in the hands of a historian, it is often difficult to find the truth. ”

Bai Luoshang frowned, "You mean, those historians tampered with history with their pens?"

"At least you shouldn't deny that there's a possibility. Qiu Lifeng patted Bai Luoshang on the shoulder with his hand, nodded and smiled: "The Zhu Mo in the historian's hand is not completely ignored, it is precisely because he can't be criticized and criticized, so after that incident, in order to eliminate the impact of this history on his reputation, the emperor ordered this history to be erased." ”

Bai Luoshang was puzzled again: "This is a piece of history shared by the two countries, even if the monarch of Qianzhu wants to erase this history, what about the monarch of Nanxia?"

Qiu Lifeng sneered: "No emperor is willing to bear the infamy of eternity, after all, it was because of his weakness that he made compromises, which led to the misery of the people in the future. ”

Bai Luoshang rubbed his forehead, the more he listened to this kind of thing, the more he thought about it, the more incredible he felt: "So, they made the same decision?"

Qiu Lifeng clapped his hands, praised Bai Luosheng's cleverness, and said with a smile: "As long as those people related to this history disappear, this history can be truly erased." ”

Bai Luoshang said: "This thing sounds too ridiculous, even if the two monarchs act at the same time, it is impossible for such a big matter to flow without a little rumor." ”

"Yes, indeed. "Qiu Lifeng said," That's why there was the 137-day Hangshan Massacre in the Banquet Studio more than 20 years ago. ”

Bai Luosheng's hand stiffened when he touched the wine gourd, and then jumped up and said, "Jiaoshan Massacre?

Qiu Lifeng didn't answer, which was tantamount to acquiescence.

Bai Luoshang hung her head in a daze.

These are just a group of ordinary people, how can they withstand the strangulation of the two forces?

Thinking about the corpse caves under those mass graves, Bai Luoshang shuddered.

This is the secret hidden in this mountain, which has been sealed in the dust for nearly a hundred years.

Suddenly, the sound of the wind in the mountain became like a human cry, and the bloody gas in the corpse cave seemed to float with the wind, and a disgusting feeling gradually came to my heart.

Bai Luoxian slowly moved his steps, but for some reason, he felt that his feet were a lot heavier.

He knew that the road under his feet was also stained with blood many years ago. He could almost imagine that the tragic and terrifying scene at that time must have been a river of blood and a mountain of corpses.

Qiu Lifeng looked at Bai Luoxian's face, and said in a low voice: "The people in the temple are the last to survive. ”

Bai Luoshang raised his head, glared at Qiu Lifeng, and asked him in disbelief: "You're here to solve those people?"

Qiu Lifeng smiled disdainfully: "It's just a group of people who exist like mayflies, and I don't need to take action personally." ”

"Since you don't need to do it yourself, what is the purpose of your trip?" Bai Luoshang asked a little aggressively, he still cares very much about those black-clothed people, those iron-blooded troops who serve Xiao Ying, and the organization called "Banquet Shadow Building".

"Lou Qianyun. Qiu Lifeng hooked the corners of his lips, his tone was uninhibited and cold-blooded, "He was the one who was responsible for dealing with the orphans of tea farmers in that operation, but then I don't know why, he actually hid these people against His Majesty's wishes." ”

"Those named Huazi in the City God Temple are the descendants of tea farmers?" Bai Luoshang remembered what the two beggars had said, and felt pity in his heart, "So, these people should have been dead?"

Qiu Lifeng nodded and said, "If I don't come, they will always be 'dead people'." ”

"Although you don't care about doing anything to the descendants of those tea farmers, you can set fire to the temple in order to force Lou Qianyun out. Are you so sure that Lou Qianyun will show up for those people?" Bai Luoshang very much disagreed with Qiu Lifeng's approach, in the final analysis, those tea farmers were the biggest and most innocent victims of the whole incident, and they should not suffer the disaster of extermination.

"Whether they are dead or alive has never had anything to do with me. I just want Lou Qianyun to stand up, no matter what means. Qiu Lifeng obviously didn't bother to do anything to the group of Hanako. If it weren't for Lou Qianyun hiding too deep and refusing to show up, he would never have set that fire.

Bai Luoshang looked at Qiu Lifeng, couldn't help but tighten her eyebrows, and blurted out without thinking: "If you don't look at their life and death, it's no wonder that you are not soft at all." ”

Qiu Lifeng felt a little disgusted by Bai Luosheng's tone of speaking, and then sneered: "I was originally a murderer without blinking, and you didn't know me on the first day, why pretend to be disappointed?"

When Bai Luoshang heard this, he immediately realized that his way of speaking was not very safe. In the final analysis, neither of them is a good type, and he really has no position to speak to Qiu Lifeng in this tone. Then he changed his expression and changed the topic: "Rather die in silence, not live in silence." Didn't these survivors seek justice for themselves again?"

"After nearly a hundred years of hunting and strangling, do you think there are still people who can stand up and speak out? And these people don't seem to know much about what happened a hundred years ago. Qiu Lifeng glanced at the red tree on the cliff, "Maybe the clearest thing about that period of history is that ancient tea tree." ”

"Tea tree can't speak. Bai Luoxiang looked at the red tea tree again, an ancient tree that seemed to have its leaves dyed red with blood.
