Back Off, Let Me Come

Chapter 18: 018: Shame (Medium)

  Chapter 18 018: Shame (Part 2)

  Hearing that these soldiers had nothing to do with him, Shen Tang's tense nerves relaxed, and he raised his hand to lower the sunshade hat. Sitting in a corner, pretending to drink tea, trying to reduce the sense of presence: "Soldiers from the Geng Kingdom...how come they are here?"

  As soon as these words came out, Qi Shan almost choked on the tea.

  This Mr. Shen Xiaolang really did not let him down, every question was beyond his expectation.

   "Where are the soldiers of the Geng Kingdom?"

  Shen Tang: "..."

   Her instinct told her that she seemed to be asking a stupid question.

  Shen Tang tried to save it.

   "But this shouldn't be Chongtai, no, Xin Guo? How could the soldiers of Geng Guo..."

As she was talking, she stopped herself first, and covered her eyes with one hand without saying a word, not looking at Qishan's look in the eyes of a fool - she remembered that Qishan had said that the re-establishment, that is, Xin Guo was destroyed, and Guoxi was suspected of being killed by Gong The news hidden by the family—at that time, all the attention was on Guoxi and the Gong family, and they didn't even think about who the forces that destroyed the Xin country were.

   Looking at it now, there are eight [nines] out of ten that it is the Geng Kingdom.

  This question fully exposed her "naivety and ignorance". Fortunately, Qishan was also used to Shen Xiaolang-jun's "unexpectedness" and did not delve into it.

  Shen Tang was embarrassed: "I... don't know much about these..."

"It's not too late to understand now." Qi Shan seemed to be smiling but tapped three times on the table with his fingers, silently reciting the words "The law is not taught to the six ears", and the faint and invisible literary spirit surged up and disappeared without a trace, "Mr. Shen Xiaolang took a look." I know that you are a noble scholar who is raised by gold and jade, and I can understand. You are not bad, and other dudes may be more ignorant and fearless. They only know how to walk on the stage, lean on the red and nestle in the emerald green, romantic and unrestrained, play in the world, how can you know the country Enemies and family hatred, people's livelihood suffering?"

  Shen Tang: "..."

  As long as she doesn't take the right seat, Qi Shan is not talking about her.

  Shen Tang cheekily said, "Mr. Qi is right."

  Qi Shan looked boring, he just couldn't control his emotions for a while—

  The Geng State killed the Xin State, and the three-year-old boy and the farmers in the fields knew about it. The Shen Xiaolang who had a great connection with the Gong family in front of him would be confused and said he didn't know.

  He didn't know whether to be angry or laugh.

  Shen Tang lowered his head and sipped his tea with a guilty conscience.

   "However, the Xin Kingdom and the Geng Kingdom are the same thing, and there is no difference between whether it will be destroyed or not. For the people, it is just that the mountain above their heads has changed from a foolish king to a tyrant..."

  Shen Tang was surprised after hearing this.

  She glanced at the soldiers of the Geng Kingdom outside the teahouse from the corner of her eye, and was relieved when she saw that they hadn't noticed this side: "Listen to Mr. Qi's words, you have a lot of opinions on the destroyed Xin Kingdom, but didn't you say that..."

   When the two met for the first time, Qishan felt malicious because she was a "child of the Gong family", implying that the Gong family was related to Xin Guo's destruction of the country, and hid the imperial seal. Shen Tang thought that Qishan loved his homeland very much, but now he heard that he didn't mean that.

  Qi Shan lazily raised his eyelids.

   "The two are not in conflict."

   Seeing that he didn't intend to continue the conversation, Shen Tang had no choice but to take the initiative to change the subject, making indirect remarks, trying to learn more about this world. She pointed at her head: "That Mr. Geng has such a low opinion of him?"

  Xin Kingdom was destroyed, and the princes and kings should be blamed for being stupid. It is not an exaggeration to call it a "faint king", but the power of the Geng Kingdom is strong, and the princes and kings expanded their territories during their reign. The evaluation of Qishan is actually a "tyrant"?

  Qi Shan sneered: "If that is not considered a tyrant, which princes and kings can't be called a 'benevolent lord'? Look, if the tyrant Zheng Qiao does not die within five years, the Geng Kingdom will surely destroy itself."

  Shen Tang came up with gossip.

   "Where is the specific 'violence'?"

  Qi Shan was about to popularize science, when there were ear-piercing curses from the prison car outside the tea shop, and after a while there were only the sound of whipping and miserable screams. Shen Tang looked out through the gap in the bamboo curtain of the tea shop, and could vaguely see blood dripping from the corner of the prison car.

Another prisoner scolded angrily: "Even if you beat this old man to death, this old man will still say, Zheng Qiao, you are a cheap and sycophantic [breed], let this old man decay and wear sackcloth and filial piety, and dream of your ancestors! I beat the gongs and drums to pay you a coward's funeral!"

  This dear man has white hair and a well-trained body. He speaks with great vigor, and his voice is like thunder.

   It was the first time for Shen Tang to watch the literature of another world cursing people.

   Awesome!

   Of course the Geng soldiers would not allow him to yell and scold.

   Immediately swiped the whip and hit it up, and a casual swipe left a bloodstain. The man gritted his teeth hard and didn't utter a scream or beg for mercy. The harder the beating, the harder he scolded.

   Straight up to the point where he was dying, the soldier panted and spat at the prisoner in the prison car: "You old bastard!"

"Mr. Shen Xiaolang just asked 'Where is the tyrant'? Didn't you see it?" Qi Shanxu pointed to the direction outside the tea shop, worried that Shen Tang would not understand, so he started from the beginning, "Zheng Qiao is the current Geng Kingdom. Lord, he entered the harem of Xin with his biological mother as a hostage when he was five years old. It is said that he was smart and studious since he was a child, and he was born with a natural beauty. He was named Dongwangdu at the age of fifteen. The Lord of Xin was overjoyed and gave him the name 'Nvjiao'."

   "Is the Lord Xin a serious illness?"

  Qi Shan said: "It is true that she is sick, incompetent and lustful, and accidentally set her sights on the female family member of the harem of another country, that is, Zheng Qiao's biological mother. She was brought here by trickery, and a proton Zheng Qiao was also given as a gift."

   "This Zheng Qiao is also pitiful..."

  Qishan laughed at her naivety, and asked: "Do you think that Zheng Qiao was forced by the power and did it as a last resort?"

"Is not it?"

   Subconsciously, you will think that it is a plunder by a foolish king, right?

Qishan shook his head with regret: "If it is, Zheng Qiao would be pitiful, but unfortunately not. He is very good at killing people with a knife. In those years, he killed many loyal ministers and eradicated dissidents. Those who offend him, call him a sycophant, and those who are favored by others are not good. For a long time, you will always suffer from misfortune and go to prison, regardless of whether you are wronged or not, you will suffer the death penalty."

  What is "destruction of the government and capital punishment"?

   It is a cruel method to destroy the Dan Mansion. The destruction of the Dan Mansion's literary heart and courage cannot be restored, even if the case is overturned afterwards. Zheng Qiao is also bullying the weak and afraid of the strong, and only kills those from poor families with no background or weak foundation.

   I don’t know how many promising scholars and warriors have been ruined.

In the early years of Xin State, the situation was relatively stable, and the national strength was not weak. Even if there was a faint king who did not go to court 365 days a year, spent all day in the harem, worked on women, and secretly ordered people to look for beauties everywhere, the lives of the people It's not too bad.

  But after Zheng Qiao appeared, every day was chaotic.

  After that, King Geng's house was in chaos, and he thought of Zheng Qiao who was staying in another country as a proton. Zheng Qiao is also ambitious, unwilling to be reconciled to the status quo, so he wins over the courtiers of Xin Guo with money and future, and after a smooth operation, the leader of Xin Guo let him go back to the country.

  In just five years, the Geng Kingdom took advantage of the years of drought and the shortage of troops in the Xin Kingdom, and sent out troops in a sneak attack, all the way to the royal city. Every time he captured a place, he would connive at the soldiers burning, killing, looting, and robbing the women of the people there, while he humiliated the old officials of the Xin Kingdom in every possible way.

   "Speaking of which, Zheng Qiao and the Gong family still have a relationship."

  Shen Tang's scalp went numb when he heard it.

   She really doesn't know this.

   But Qishan said it with a smile.

"Back then, the Gong family was the main force supporting Zheng Qiao's return to the Geng Kingdom. What's interesting is that the Gong family was confiscated and exterminated, the men were sent to the frontier to serve as coolies, and the women were sent to the Xiaocheng Jiaofang. This is Zheng Qiao's attack on King Xin. first order."

   Xin Guo (renamed Chongtai) has been destroyed, and it is also the current national camp of Tangmei and Qishan.

   Of course, it has been annexed by the Geng Kingdom, but its power is still unstable.

   The background of the whole world is a completely chaotic world, and the wars between the princes are very fierce.

   Tangmei is only eleven or twelve years old, and she is still in the stage of understanding the outside world. Before she can really embark on the road of being a prince, she needs to develop again, and there is still an opportunity for her to raise the flag to be king.

   "The law is not passed on to the six ears" is the eloquence of whispering through soundproofing, and the corresponding is "every wall has ears" to eavesdrop on others.

   Declined public opinion: The ancients surrendered, and the etiquette of scholars and officials is almost the same as wearing sackcloth and filial piety...it should be...
