Tiantang Splendid

Chapter 3876
The man in black did not leave the secret passage, but lifted the green bricks to reveal the iron plate inside, then lifted the iron plate and put it back to the distance, making an illusion that he had already left from here, and then tiptoed to the back Gable, move your muscles and bones, the bones on your body make a light "cracking" sound, and then the whole person is like noodles, drilled out of a transom on the wall that only civet cats can enter and exit...

The wind and the rain were violent, and the man in black floated lightly outside the transom. His body bones had returned to their original positions, and he bent over and walked along the wall all the way.

After a long time, he walked around several houses along the base of the wall, came to the opposite of a hut, squatted in the darkness, motionless.

After a long time, a soldier came swaying in a coir raincoat, stood outside the hut, untied his belt and released water...

A soft voice came from behind.

"During these days, has Zhang Shigui been in contact with the crown prince or the officials of the East Palace?"

The soldier released the water without changing his posture, and said in a low voice: "No, but he went out of the city to meet Fang Jun under the city, and his soldiers are all around, so no one knows what he talked about."

"Continue to pay attention to Zhang Shigui's actions, if there is anything unusual, report back immediately!"

"Here!"

After that, there was no more speech.

After the soldier drained the water, he fastened his trouser belt, turned around and glanced at the dark wall opposite the hut, there was nothing there...

The soldier raised his head and looked around again. In order to find something unusual and no one was approaching, he tightened his coir raincoat and walked away quickly against the wind and rain.

*****
Right Tunwei Daying.

It's already Mao time, but the sky is only dim, and the wind and rain are unstoppable.

Inside the camp where he lived, Fang Jun watched the wind and rain outside the window, frowned, and took a sip of tea. The tea that he loved in the past now feels dull...

Just had breakfast, Princess Gaoyang and Princess Danyang were present, while Wu Meiniang, Princess Changle, Jin Shengman and others went back to their respective tents.Princess Danyang originally planned to leave too. Although Fang Jun hadn't harassed her particularly these days, she was always concerned about Fang Jun's reputation in her heart, and she couldn't help being frightened every time she met her.

But you can't always avoid Fang Jun, right?
After all, now that he is living under someone else's roof, Fang Jun is the court's son-in-law, and his niece and son-in-law are considered a family, so they can't be too rude...

Princess Gao Yang raised her plain hand, held the pot and poured half a cup of tea into Fang Jun's teacup, looked at Fang Jun's frown, and said curiously: "This heavy rain has stopped the battle at Tai Chi Palace, and the sixth rate in the East Palace is a rare one." It is a good thing to get a chance to breathe, why is Lang Jun so unhappy?"

Fang Jun pointed to his face: "His Highness calls this depressed?"

Princess Gaoyang stared slightly, with a puzzled expression on her face, and Princess Danyang looked over curiously, thinking that this is just gloomy?

Fang Jun sighed, and said: "It's far more serious than being unhappy. This is basically a sad face, a sad face, and a sad face!"

"puff!"

Princess Gaoyang couldn't help laughing, even Princess Danyang couldn't help laughing out loud, she immediately felt something was wrong, she quickly raised her hands, covered her face with her sleeves, her pretty face flushed.

The first two idioms are nothing more than that, but how can a big man describe himself with "frowning makeup"?Perhaps those handsome gentlemen who wear makeup and flowers can still be described one or two, but Fang Jun's handsome appearance, sword eyebrows and bright eyes are completely different from those "beautiful" men.

Princess Gao Yang asked with a smile: "What is it that makes you so sad?"

Fang Jun didn't hide anything, and said: "Although the rain gave Donggong Liuzhao a rare chance to breathe, the [-] prisoners we just captured may be about to suffer a catastrophe."

This battle wiped out the entire private army of the family clan. Except for the deaths and escapes, more than 1 people were captured. In addition, the Guanlong army captured nearly [-] people. Now there are more than [-] prisoners in Youtunwei.

These captives are not only as simple as sending troops to guard them, but also need to provide food and resettle houses, which is an extremely heavy burden for the right guards.It's raining heavily right now, how can there be so many houses in Youtunwei for resettlement?
I'm afraid that after the heavy rain, countless captives will get sick or die due to various reasons.

The weather is getting warmer, the sun is shining after the rain, and the temperature is rising. Maybe a disease will spread among the Youtun guards and the prisoners.At present, there is a serious lack of drugs and conditions for epidemic prevention. Once the epidemic breaks out, it will be a disaster...

Princess Gao Yang blinked, and said: "Why don't you send troops to escort him to the counties in Hexi and imprison him for now?"

Fang Jun shook his head: "Absolutely not."

From Guanzhong to Hexi more than a thousand miles away, how could these captives who were short of medical care survive?As long as they didn't wait until Hexi, more than half of them would die.The meaning of Princess Gaoyang is also the same, since it cannot be settled properly, why let her drag You Tunwei back?It is definitely not acceptable to kill prisoners in an open and honest manner. It is better to let them fend for themselves in the name of taking them to Hexi for resettlement...

But Fang Jun absolutely cannot allow such things to happen.

These are all the people of the Tang Dynasty and the descendants of the Chinese blood. On the battlefield, when the two armies confront each other, no matter how heavy the casualties are, it is impossible to avoid the benevolence of women, right?But since they have already been captured, they must not be cruelly left to fend for themselves, and slaughter the two captives in another way.

Princess Danyang on the side couldn't help being curious, and she took the initiative to say: "They are just captives, and they are all private soldiers of those powerful families outside the pass. Whether they die or live well, why should Duke Yue care?"

It is naturally best to treat captives properly when conditions permit, and order them to return to farming after the war or distribute them to meritorious people as servants. This is naturally the best;
It has been done like this throughout the ages.

Fang Jun straightened his waist and said seriously: "Your Highness, this statement is absurd! The so-called 'Under the whole world, is it the land of the king; on the shore of the land, are the subjects of the king', since they are all the subjects of His Majesty and the subjects of the empire, how can it be true? Knowing that he is bound to die, not only remain indifferent, but contribute to the flames? Chang’an City was destroyed, and it took only ten years to rebuild it; In fact, it made Datang lose the hearts of the people, and it will be difficult to win the trust of the people in a hundred years!"

Throughout the ages, what is the most important thing for a country or a nation?

population!

As long as there are people, no matter how difficult and difficult the situation is, the clouds can be seen, and no matter how backward the country is, it can be revitalized and prosperous!
No one, even if they prosper for a while, will sooner or later collapse.

There are billions of people in the Tang Dynasty, but Fang Jun never thinks that any one is superfluous...

Princess Gaoyang's beautiful eyes sparkled, her lips were pursed, and her eyes were full of love that could not be concealed: "Your Majesty is a true hero! He loves the people like a son, has a benevolent heart, regards the world as one family, and has never abused any Tang people. Traffickers, pawns, criminals and robbers also show enough benevolence, and they should be famous officials in the world!"

In this era, the concepts of so-called "democracy" and "freedom" do not exist at all. What everyone believes in is class, high and low. Superior to others, not among the "straw dogs"...

The civilians are fine, but the status of those slaves is no different from that of livestock, they are the private property of the nobles, and life and death are taken for granted.Even if the status of slaves and prisoners is slightly improved in the recompilation and implementation of the nationwide "Zhenguan Law", it is only a fine if the master kills at will.

People are born into ranks and ranks, and the life and death of those at the bottom of the ranks are decided by the nobles.

People like Fang Jun who regard the credo of "all beings are equal" as their standard are rare and unique, and this kind of fraternity and benevolence from the heart is unattainable to some people, but it is so stupid to others. Like sparks in the dark night, it feels bright and warm.

A person who is "unconventional" and "out of tune with the times" will always be like this, either hated to death, or loved to death...

These words actually made Fang Jun a little ashamed, he laughed, and said: "Your Highness is so praised, Xiaosheng is really ashamed... and His Highness is wrong about one thing, my minister is just talking to the people of Tang Dynasty, The descendants of Yan and Huang treat them equally, but for those barbarians who only know how to kill and destroy, they regard them as wild beasts, and whoever falls into their hands must be killed quickly!"

Non-my family, its heart must be different.

The bad roots in Manhu's bones can't be changed. They don't respect morality and don't follow etiquette.Even if they were smiling at you a moment ago and trying to win over you in every possible way, once your interests go against theirs, they can insert steel knives into your chest and abdomen in a blink of an eye and take away everything from you.
