girl riding a horse

Chapter 595 has nothing to do with me.

Xie Yuan had already taken off her armor and was wearing a black and purple long gown. The white snow fell on her shoulders, which seemed to weigh heavily on her spirit, but her figure was still tall and handsome, with a lively and All come with arrogance.

Shi Yu Hengjia turned his attention to Shen Liuzhen.

At this time, Shen Liuzhen was turning his head, staring at Xie Yuan for a moment, as if Xie Yuan would fly away if he looked away, very nervous.

Shi Yuhengjia tilted his head carelessly, and said in a relaxed tone:

"Shen Liuzhen, although you said that there is no need to write a letter of surrender because the incident happened suddenly, but you have to have an attitude, right?"

Xie Yuan lowered his head slightly, the eyelashes of Danfeng's eyes trembled, he pursed his lips tightly and did not speak.

Shen Liuzhen saw that her hand hanging by her side clenched her fist, and then slowly loosened it, as if she had lost her strength, and was still trembling slightly.

Shen Liuzhen's nose was sore, he lifted the hem of his clothes, and knelt down in front of Shi Yu Hengjia instead of her, raised his hands and saluted, the wide sleeves of his robe formed a door in front of him, and said sincerely with his face up:

"I have had a marriage contract with Xie Yuan since we were young. The husband and wife are one body. I will surrender on her behalf and ask the general to accept her surrender."

If there was ever a time in Shen Liuzhen's life where he expressed his wishes with the most sincerity, it was at this moment.

Even Shi Yuhengjia knew his cunning and was used to his pretended kindness and innocence, at this moment he couldn't help but feel soft-hearted at the urgency and pleading shown in Shen Liuzhen's eyes, and frowned slightly.

Xie Yuan turned his head to look at Shen Liuzhen who was kneeling on the ground.

Even when he was kneeling, his demeanor was still impeccable, but his pure white robe fell into the mud.The wound on his hand was still bleeding, dripping on the hem of his clothes, the gray and black of the mud and the red of the blood were so obvious, it hurt her heart.

Xie Yuan suddenly remembered that many years ago, she asked her father why he surrendered. She said that she would rather die standing than kneeling. His father said:

"... How many years have you lived and how many enemies have you met before you dare to say such big words?!! The Wuhu and Ten Clans in the north are constantly fighting, and the Han people in the south are changing dynasties frequently. The royal surnames are changing faster than the weather! Today is Enemy, tomorrow will be the lord of a country on your head!... In this way, everyone in the world is your enemy! You are not willing to kneel? Then you just go to die, death is meaningless, even a feather Can't compare!"

Thinking of this, she had already dried up and burst into tears in an instant.

There is never any moment that can make her realize her insignificance, the impermanence of the world, and the cruelty and helplessness of reality more than this time.

She let go of her clenched fist, lifted the hem of her clothes gracefully, stepped back with one foot, and knelt down slowly, beside Shen Liuzhen, together with him.

She raised her hands and cupped her fists and bowed as a general, with a sad and desolate voice, and said in a low voice:
"The surrendered general Xie Yuan voluntarily led his subordinates to surrender, please accept it from General Shi Yu."

Xie Yuan, who had always been aloof, finally bent his knees and lowered his head, but Shi Yuhengjia was not as happy and comfortable as he imagined.

He frowned, turned his head away, pulled the horse's rein and went into the city.

When passing by the gate of the city, in a relaxed tone, he threw down a sentence lightly:
"Open the city gate wide and let them in."

……

The clan uncles and brothers of the Shen family all gathered around Shen Liuzhen. Many of them had seen Shen Liuzhen when he was young. panic.

They stood in front of the city gate, looked at the tall city wall and didn't want to go in, but they didn't know what to do.

Shen Liuzhen knew the worries in their hearts and said:
"Dear relatives, the current situation in the Song Kingdom is chaotic. If you stay in the Song Kingdom, you will definitely be regarded as a thorn in the side. But if anyone wants to lead people to fight in the Song Kingdom and expand the territory to become a prince, I will not stop it. But it’s up to everyone to discuss whether to stay or not.”

He paused, and gently persuaded:

"...But what I think is that you'd better go to Wei Guo to avoid it first. If you are worried about your family members, you should quickly bring your family members to your side. After this period of time, the situation has stabilized. If I really miss my homeland, and I will go back by myself.

With me here, I can assure you of this point. "

When they heard this, they looked at each other for a while, and then looked behind them. Xie Yuan, like them, was silent as he watched Nanfang's thoughts tumbling.

After a while, everyone in the Shen family started discussing:
"Which one of you wants to be the emperor? The little emperor is no good without our Shen family. Let's take advantage of the chaos and fight for it?"

"It's only now that I realize what's the use of arguing. As soon as the old emperor dies, we'll start to occupy land and stockpile food and plan ahead. Now I think of arguing temporarily. Can we fight those rebels? Don't say anything else, the next meal Where to get the food and grass? Who to fight?"

"Forget it. I have been loyal to the emperor and patriotic all my life. What I think about the most is earning a future. If I become a bandit who robs houses at this time, his mother's soldiers don't know how to lead them. I can't afford to lose that person."

Everyone was silent for a while...

After a while, a person said bitterly again:
"Good people don't get rewarded, honest ones are not as good as treacherous ones, loyal ministers don't last as long as rebels... Damn I knew it was better to be a rebel, all my loyalty has been fed to the dogs!"

"..."

"It's too late to say these things now, it's too late for everything... I just don't want to part with my homeland."

"Soldiers move around, where is there any homeland? Song is the homeland? As early as 200 years ago, the whole world is the homeland of our Han people. Including the land of Wei State, all of them!"

At this time, Xie Yuan, who had been looking at the scenery in the distance with his eyes dazed all the time, suddenly opened his mouth and said softly:
"Notice, if anyone doesn't want to go to Wei, let them disband and go home."

After that, she turned and entered the city gate.

……

……

In the carriage at the meeting place, Xie Yuan took a white cloth to cover the wound on Shen Liuzhen's hand. Shen Liuzhen looked at her lonely expression with red phoenix eyes, and couldn't stop the pain in his heart, so he whispered:

"A Yuan...you can say something."

Xie Yuan was silent for a while, as if he was only concentrating on bandaging him. After a while, his lips moved, and asked wearily:
"say what?"

Shen Liuzhen swallowed nervously, and said:
"Tell... tell me what your future plans are."

Xie Yuan wrapped it up, put his hand back gently, smiled despondently, his brows and eyes were bruised, and said:
"Plan?... All I know is that in the future, I don't want to worry about things like country and country and leading troops to fight. I'm tired and relieved. It has nothing to do with me in this world."

　Seeing this, everyone has followed the development of the story, watching Xie Yuan and Shen Liuzhen, from ignorant and naive nonsense when they were children, to having their own persistence when they were teenagers, and they went out of the house to wander alone.

　　Later, they experienced regime change, dynasty change, high spirits, setbacks, joy and pain.

　　In their year, when they entered the youth, they achieved success and fame, but they also lost their relatives and friends, and their lives changed dramatically.

　　Isn't there a lyric that goes like this:

　　I have crossed mountains, rivers and seas.Also through the sea of ​​people, I used to have everything I have.In a blink of an eye, it all drifted away like smoke.

　　……

　　Yes, they have entered the youth, but because of too much experience, the state of mind is almost to the point where they can retire...

　　(Thank you for your company, I love you~. Although there is no outline, but at this rate of progress, I think the whole book should be finished in about 200 million words.)
