Encounter Qin Shihuang on a deserted island

Chapter 279 On the Great Wall, Under the Stars

After drinking for three rounds, Chang Yu didn't want to drink again, lest he would not be able to stay awake.

Although Wang Jian was old, his body was still strong, and he and Meng Tian started to drink.

Li Si was afraid that they would drink too much, so he acted as a peacemaker there, while Chang Yu walked out for a stroll by himself.

You can board the beacon tower next to the military camp. It was already dark and the sky was very good.

The sky is full of stars, a little bit of starlight, vast and infinite, giving people an illusion of smallness.

The autumn wind gradually picked up, blowing head-on, causing Chang Yu, who was sitting on the city wall, to shiver.

"Drink a few glasses of wine, don't talk about warming up, I'm shivering from the cold."

Chang Yu has never experienced drinking to warm up.

When I was on a deserted island, when the weather was cold, I was basically covered in wool.

Sitting on the city wall, the air is refreshing, but it is gradually getting colder.

Chang Yu, who couldn't help it, just wanted to get up when Meng Yan came up with a bowl.

Thinking that she was coming up to admire the stars, Chang Yu planned to go down on the other side, but she stopped her.

"Master Hou, I brought you hangover soup"

Hearing this, Chang Yu was a little surprised, but he couldn't refuse.

Taking it from her hand, the fingertips felt warm, which was quite comfortable.

Put it against your mouth and sip gently, a warm feeling will flow down your stomach, not to mention how comfortable it is!
"Thank you." He held it in his hands to keep warm, and looked at Meng Yan sitting beside him.

"The scenery here is beautiful, right?" Meng Yan raised her head and looked up at the starry sky.

Thousands of stars are turning slowly, as if they are centered on this, the feeling is very ethereal and comfortable.

The location of the Great Wall is in the plain area, which is higher than other places.

When looking up at the sky full of stars, it will be much more intuitive visually than in many places.

It was as if a star could be seen by reaching out.

This kind of beauty of stars is far from being seen on a deserted island.

"Yes." Chang Yu also sat on the city wall: "The stars here are so beautiful."

Maybe this bowl of hangover soup is useful. Chang Yu doesn't feel cold anymore at this moment.

Meng Yan propped her hands behind her back, her eyes were filled with the brilliance of the stars: "I often think how wonderful it would be if there was no war."

For some reason, the plain voice made Chang Yu feel all over for a while, thinking about her life experience, he couldn't say anything.

If there is no war, she will not be far away from home, let alone her parents and alone.
Meng Yan was lucky to meet Meng Tian, ​​if it were someone else, he would probably be gone long ago.

In troubled times, it is difficult to protect oneself, not everyone is kind enough to adopt and raise an orphan girl.

Why did Meng Yan say this?
Of course Chang Yu knew why.

He is here right now because of the war.

In a war, people are destined to die, no matter what the two sides stand on.

Whether it is the Qin Dynasty or the Xiongnu, once there is a war, a family will inevitably collapse and disintegrate.

But if you don't fight, it will only make people feel easy to bully, and thus continue to harass or tear apart innocent people.

Just like this time, the Huns kept crossing the border and burning, killing and looting several towns.

If Xianyang doesn't send troops over, in time the Huns will think that Daqin is just a sick lion and go south wantonly.

"Perhaps the beginning of the war is a disaster for many families."

"But in the big picture, war is also Anbang's way of governing the country."

"If Daqin doesn't take the initiative to go to war, maybe it will be the day when Daqin will destroy the country soon."

"Only by showing great strength can the enemies who spy on Daqin be afraid and dare not mess around."

"Sacrifice is inevitable, and no one wants to do it"

Chang Yu handed the empty bowl to Meng Yan and looked at her eyes like stars.

"But if not, the whole world will not be peaceful. War is not a disaster, but the beginning of peace."

"Daqin Yangyang's millions of elite soldiers are not fighting for the so-called emperor, but for the peace of himself and his family."

Listening to Chang Yu's words, Meng Yan nodded with a bitter expression: "Yan'er also knows what Mr. Hou said."

"It's just," he was interrupted by Chang Yu before he finished speaking: "You don't have to worry, live your life well, and leave the turmoil outside to Daqin's army."

"Master Hou, are you looking down on me?"

Meng Yan was a little stunned and amused.

"I do not have it!"

Chang Yu was also a little dazed, was that a contempt? !

"What does it mean to live a good life and leave the turmoil to Daqin's army?"

Meng Yan stood up, snapped her fingers and made a 'click' sound.

"Master Hou thinks that good women are not as good as men?" ss
Seeing that he looked as if he was going to hit someone, Chang Yu quickly stepped back a few steps and said with a grin, "I didn't say that!"

"Then what does Lord Hou mean?!"

As soon as Meng Yan finished speaking, Chang Yu turned around and ran away, unable to explain clearly!
"Stop!" Meng Yan stared, and hurriedly chased after her: "Please explain clearly to me!"

"What did you say!"

Chang Yu was running in front, and when he looked back, he saw that the good guy was about to catch up!
Wasn't it quite ladylike just now? !How can you be more unreasonable than Wang Shuyi!

Meng Tian is a general. How can a woman who was raised by a general be a lady?
Maintaining etiquette before was just to save face for Meng Tian and Xianyang.

Good guy, let’s chat normally for a while, and then start by saying that good women are not as good as men.

Meng Yan, who grew up in the military, heard these words the most.

Against the backdrop of the moonlight, all the soldiers in the barracks were watching, and the two people chasing one after the other on the city wall
Not far away, in the forest, a carriage was parked, and Princess Songyang and the palace maid were watching from a distance.

Seeing Chang Yu playing and playing with a woman on the city wall, the palace maid couldn't help but say coquettishly.

"I thought this Lord Hou was a gentleman, but I didn't expect to hook up with a woman just after arriving at the barracks."

"Princess, I say, he is not as good as Mr. Gao Jianli!" The palace maid was talking about Gao Jianli again.

Princess Songyang felt helpless when she heard that. She lowered the curtains and sat back in the sedan: "If you talk to him again, I will kick you out!"

"Isn't that right!" the maid pouted and muttered, "Mr. Gao Jianli, he is handsome and talented."

"As for Lord Hou, although he is a little handsome, he also has a lot of whimsical ideas. But he is a flamboyant gentleman!"

"Princess!" As soon as the maid turned her head, Princess Songyang covered her mouth: "If you say any more, I will throw you out to feed the wolves!"

The palace maid opened her hand and said angrily: "This is a barren mountain, and there is a military camp here, where are there wolves?"

ooh-

The howling of wolves came just before the palace maid finished speaking, causing both of their faces to change slightly.

"On a full moon night, wolves have the habit of howling at the moon." The maid smacked her lips and said with some fear, "Why don't you go to the prime minister?"

"No!" Princess Songyang immediately refused: "If they find us following, they will definitely send us back!"

"My princess!" the palace maid said helplessly and fearfully: "We have already reached the border, they will definitely not give it away!"

"I'm not happy." Princess Songyang snorted softly: "What's so comfortable about the military camp? Why don't we find a town?"

The barracks and hundreds of thousands of slaves are here, and there must be many towns nearby, which can provide a lot of consumption!
