I have a backstage in Datang

After entering the house, I found that this woman's house was indeed very poor, with almost bare walls, not even a grain basket beside the wall. As for the bed for sleeping, it was just a wooden board, placed directly on the ground, polished and polished.

From the degree of brightness, it can be inferred that this board has been sleeping for a long time, not half a year or a year, at least five years away.

Gu Tianya glanced at the crowd, and said with deep meaning: "Five years ago, she was already poor."

The implication is self-explanatory, this is telling An Yanbing and others a truth.The poverty of the woman in front of me was not caused by his capture of Goguryeo. He took down Goguryeo half a year ago, and this woman has been poor for at least five years or even longer.

An Yanbing and the others looked embarrassed, and each sighed.

On the contrary, the woman didn't see the bitterness. She kept looking at Gu Tianya eagerly after entering the door. Suddenly, she seemed to muster up her courage, and cautiously approached Gu Tianya, saying: "Brother Han, buy me. I am willing to go with you, no more I’m from Goguryeo. I’m only 19 years old, and there’s no one in my family anymore. So I can make my own decisions without asking for other people’s consent. Brother, you buy me, I can make my own decisions…”

An Yanbing and the others looked even more embarrassed, and the middle-aged scholar even wanted to yell loudly.

However, at this moment, a crying sound was heard in the house. It was obviously a child, but the crying sound was very weak.

Everyone was startled, subconsciously looking over there.

Gu Tianya pretended to frown, looked at the woman in front of him and said: "You said just now that there is no one at home, why is there a child crying."

Seeing him frowning, the woman thought he was angry, and she panicked immediately, and said anxiously, "It's only one year old, and the child is only one year old. She doesn't understand, she doesn't remember. Brother, if you buy me, I can Help you give birth to a child. This doll is also given to you, let her be your Han Chinese cub. She is only one year old and won’t remember things.”

The more she spoke, the more anxious she became, and she was about to cry. Suddenly, she seemed to think of something, and her tone suddenly became uplifted, and she said, "My Niu Niu is a girl, and girls don't have to worry about blood. Brother, if you buy me, Niu Niu will take your surname. I will never be a Goguryeo again, and our mother and daughter will all be Han Chinese, okay?"

This urgency is worrying.

Gu Tianya sighed softly, turned his head to look at An Yanbing and the others, and asked with deep meaning: "Do you want to know why?"

Chapter 450 [Koguryo's Abnormal Social Status]

It was as if an ugly wound had been torn open, making it bloody presented in front of everyone, and it was also like an invisible rope tied to the heart of a person.

And Gu Tianya is the one holding the rope.

He tugged on the rope viciously.

As a result, several Goguryeo people present felt a pang of pain.

After a long time passed, the old man sighed and said, "I want to know, why?"

Followed by the middle-aged scholar.

Then came the Queen of Goguryeo.

Each of them spoke bitterly, with deep loneliness, and said: "Why is this so?"

On the contrary, An Yanbing didn't speak, and the girl's eyes seemed to be full of sadness.

Gu Tianya glanced at everyone, and said: "Gu has a suggestion, let's ask her a question, after everyone asks her, maybe you can understand why."

"it is good!"

The old man nodded first.

Immediately, the old man looked at the woman in front of him. He tried his best to keep his tone calm, and asked, "Son, tell the old man that your family has a field, why are you so poor?"

It's a pity that at this moment, there was another cry from inside the room, and a little girl crawled out, begging timidly, and crying aggrievedly: "Oh Mom, Niuniu is hungry."

The woman's face was pale, and she burst into tears.She rushed over to pick up the child and hugged her tightly in her arms.

Her expression was clearly desperate.

It was the desperation of a lie being exposed.

Just now, in order to be bought by Gu Tianya, she lied that her child was only one year old, but when the child crawled out, everyone could tell that it was a girl about five years old.

And children around five years old mean that they have begun to understand.

The woman sat on the ground with the child in her arms, her eyes showing numbness of hopelessness.

Gu Tianya suddenly took out the money bag, walked over and put it gently beside her, and said in a gentle voice: "If you stay overnight, it is considered fate. My bag of coins is not too much, but it is definitely more than what you need for the night. I will give you all the money." , It’s a gift for a child.”

However, for some reason, the woman didn't seem to be surprised. Her eyes were still numb, she sat there with the child in her arms, and said blankly: "Money can't be kept, money can't be kept, maybe I can have a meal Two meals, but it will be taken away soon. Unless you can buy me, or any Han buys me. Let me be a Han woman, let Niuniu have a Han father, so that I can live."

Seeing her tense expression, Gu Tianya comforted her: "Don't worry, no one can take away the money. If anyone dares to collect your money, I will ask the army to kill him. I am a Han businessman, and I am a very A wealthy businessman. As long as I ask the army for help, the army will definitely help me."

"Really?" The woman's tone was hopeful.

Gu Tianya smiled warmly, nodded solemnly and said, "Really."

As he spoke, he pushed the money bag, gently pushed it to the woman's leg, and said in a gentle voice: "Take it, the money can take a long time. Just treat it as a gift from me to the child, and it's also your answer to our questions." reward."

"Answer the question?" The woman murmured, as if she just remembered.

She looked up at the old man.

However, the old man sighed and shook his head, saying: "No need, I won't ask any more questions. In fact, I already know the answer to the question just now."

Suddenly the middle-aged scholar also spoke, and said in an extremely lonely tone: "We don't ask anymore, there is no need to ask."

Gu Tianya looked at the crowd and said: "You have lost the mood to ask questions, but I want to continue answering for her... First of all, it's Mr. Yu's question."

As he spoke, he got up slowly, his gaze was like a sharp sword, and he said slowly: "The woman in front of me has absolutely no farm in her family. It can even be said that every family in this village has no farm. Your land annexation in Goguryeo is too serious. The land of the people has long been seized by wealthy families. And this situation has lasted for a hundred years, and the people of Goguryeo can no longer be regarded as farmers."

"People without land are slaves."

"If this kind of situation happened in the Central Plains, it would definitely not last for a hundred years. It's just because when the Han people in the Central Plains can't survive, they will definitely rise up and overthrow the tyranny. But you Goguryeo people are different. You are submissive to your own tyranny. "

"How sad, the land has been annexed for a hundred years. The people dare not make any resistance, and the whole nation has become slaves."

Gu Tianya sneered as he spoke, and suddenly looked at the middle-aged scholar, and said, "As for your question, you didn't ask it just now, but Gu speculated based on your personality, you just wanted to ask why this woman wanted to Let the Han people buy her, right?"

The middle-aged scholar looked sad, nodded and said: "That's right, the old man wanted to ask that just now. At that moment, I was very sad."

Gu Tianya glanced at him, and said with sympathy: "Any wise man of any ethnic group will be sad when he sees his clan members wanting to sell to outsiders, so I can understand your feelings."

He paused while talking, and then said: "But you and I should understand that she is just an ordinary woman. The desire for life and the righteousness of the group, ordinary people will definitely choose the former."

The middle-aged scholar murmured with a dejected face, "Yes, the longing for life. The so-called righteousness of the ethnic group is just a joke under the oppression of life... This old man can starve to death without bowing his head, but I can't force everyone This is true of Goguryeo people, especially, their ancestors have been oppressed for generations."

He glanced at Gu Tianya, and suddenly asked solemnly: "If Goguryeo women marry Han people, will their lives be better?"

"Yes!" Gu Tianya said without hesitation, with a serious tone, "For Han men, a woman is a wife when she marries into the family. Although I can't guarantee that every Han man loves his wife, most Han men understand No matter how hard it is, they are willing to shoulder the responsibility.”

The middle-aged scholar was full of bitterness, and said softly: "A man who is willing to take responsibility is happiness for a woman. As for us Goguryeo people, there are many men who are unwilling to take responsibility."

He glanced at Gu Tianya again, and suddenly said with deep meaning: "You and I can guess that the man in this family is still alive."

Chapter 451 [Conquered the first one]

, I have a background in Datang

"That's right, they're all bastards!"

Gu Tianya suddenly raised his voice, with a cold tone, and said: "In the history of my Han family in the Central Plains, rebellion was not uncommon. Every time after the death of the previous dynasty, when the new dynasty was just established, there was always a desire to uphold righteousness. These people chanted very loudly, and were even written into the history books as great heroes. They talked about saving the people from fire and water, and talking about the great cause of restoring the country, but I would like to curse someone, all of them Damn it's not a good thing..."

"It's all bastards!"

When the last four words were said, Gu Tianya's face turned ashen.

An Yanbing and the others were shocked.

After a long time, An Yanbing said in a daze, "You just... just scolded the Han people?"

She originally thought that Gu Tianya was going to scold the Goguryeo rebels.

However, Gu Tianya's eyes were cold and stern, and he said in a cold tone: "Why can't Gu scold the Han people? Are the Han people necessarily good people? Looking at the past and present, how many of the so-called national righteousness of the restorers of the past dynasties are Are you really righteous?"

"These people are full of selfish desires."

"Obviously the country has been destroyed, and there are reasons for the country's destruction. If it weren't for the common people who couldn't survive, who would rise up to overthrow their own country?"

"And the reason why the new dynasty can be established is because it gave the people hope to survive. At this time, if you really have the people in your heart, you should devote your blood to the development of people's livelihood. The sky is big and the earth is big, and the food is the biggest. What they should do is to feed the common people, instead of leading the people to rebel and restore the country... Restoring the country is useless, let the common people live in dire straits again?"

"This principle can also be applied to you Goguryeo people. If you really serve the people wholeheartedly, you should think about how to make the people live a better life. But Gu has never heard of anyone doing this. I just I heard that there are rebels hiding in the mountains and forests everywhere."

"Forgive me for speaking bluntly, these people are forcing Goguryeo to die. When you Goguryeo was not destroyed, you were still unable to stop Gu's million-strong army. Now that the country has been destroyed, you are still fantasizing about restoring the country ? What is this thinking? What kind of behavior is this?"

When Gu Tianya said this, his face was full of sarcasm, and he sneered: "In my opinion, this is begging for death. It's just that they didn't beg for death, but let the clansmen die for their own selfish desire."

……

The atmosphere in the room was depressing.

An Yanbing and the others had bitter expressions on their faces.

Gu Tianya’s remarks just now started with the history of the Han people, and then turned around and turned to Goguryeo. He not only scolded the so-called restorers in the history of the Han people, but also mocked the traitors in Goguryeo today. Jun, words are like sharp swords, exposing a fact.

All for selfish desires!

However, although this was a fact, An Yanbing and the others did not want to admit it.

A wise man can see through the brilliant situation and know that the general trend cannot be violated. However, it is precisely because he is a wise man that he really cares about the ethnic group.

……

After a long time passed, the middle-aged scholar suddenly said, "What Gu Guozhu said just now is a reasonable analysis of the restorationists, but I still want to argue that our situation in Goguryeo is different."

He said and looked at Gu Tianya, and said without fear: "The change of dynasties in your Central Plains is basically a change within the ethnic group, so whenever the old dynasty is destroyed and the new dynasty is established, those rebels who shouted the slogan of restoring the country The army is all about selfishness. However, this old man wants to ask Gu Guozhu, what if the foreign invasion led to the destruction of the country?"

Without waiting for Gu Tianya to speak, he continued, "For example, in your Western Jin Dynasty, the Hu people ruled the northern part of the Central Plains, and the Sima family hurried southward, abandoning countless people. At that time, your Han people in the northern part of the Central Plains were almost killed. Kill them all, the land of thousands of miles is full of bones. The Han people are strung on wooden sticks, and after being roasted, they become the food of the Hu people. They are called two-legged sheep. From this, it can be seen how miserable it is?"

"However, even in that situation, you Han people in the north are still insisting on...killing the Hu and fighting back. For you Han people, that is a heroic act, but for the Hu people at that time, wouldn't you also Are they all rebels who fantasize about restoring the country?"

When the middle-aged scholar said this, he arched his hands and questioned, saying: "The reason for my Goguryeo family's destruction is similar to that of the Western Jin Dynasty. You Han people were destroyed by the Hu people, and our Goguryeo was destroyed by you. At that time, you could kill the country. Hu fights back, so why can't we resist today?"

It has to be said that this middle-aged scholar's questioning was extremely tricky.

He also started with the history of the Han people, but his point of view was completely opposite to that of Gu Tianya. He also talked about rebels, but his definition of rebels was completely different.

He still did not give up arguing with Gu Tianya.

……

Gu Tianya suddenly sighed, as if he lost interest in the debate.

However, at the next moment, he spoke again with deep meaning, saying: "It seems that we think the same, but we are actually different. Back then, we Han people killed Hu, fought back, and rebelled. We always insisted on a bottom line...that is: no one forced the people to fight , and never forcibly confiscated the food and clothing of the people."

"Every bite of our rebels' food and drink is the willing contribution of the people of the same clan. We are not regarded as human beings, and we are eaten as food by barbecue. The historical vocabulary of two-legged sheep is the history of blood and tears of all Han people at that time."

"We can't even be human, we have only one way to resist. If we don't resist, we have to die."

"So the Han people at that time, everyone was fighting willingly."

"But you Goguryeo are different."

When Gu Tianya said this, his eyes showed a hint of sarcasm. Suddenly he smiled coldly, looked at the middle-aged scholar and said: "When Goguryeo was destroyed before, Gu issued a notice of appeasement at the first time. Not only did I not treat you harshly, The common people, on the contrary, treat them as kindly as they treat the Han people.”

"First of all, I promulgated the decree that the Liao people govern the Liao Dynasty, allowing you Goguryeo people to be officials, and even set up special examination rooms to try our best to select talents from Goguryeo."

"Secondly, porridge sheds are set up in various cities, and those who are helpless in food and clothing can receive relief. In just half a year, I gave out millions of shi of grain, and almost none of your people in Goguryeo starved to death... Say no To be polite, you Goguryeo did not do as well as I did when the country was not destroyed."

"Once again, I promulgate various laws to help the people, and try my best to restore and develop your people's livelihood. For example, the orphanages in various cities today are built by me under financial pressure. In the process of construction, I hired a lot of people. Goguryeo work. So that they can earn money, so that they can eat. And after the establishment of those orphanages, all the Goguryeo orphans were sheltered and rescued.”

"When Gu said this, he couldn't help but want to boast that I was the savior of your Goguryeo orphans. Hundreds of thousands of dolls died because of my policies."

"Also, I promulgated the decree on the relief of widows and orphans. All the officials under my command must be responsible for the land they control. As large as a city or as small as a village, the officials must always patrol, and no orphans, widows, weak and hungry are allowed. The matter of the dead family... In the past six months, what is the most important thing my officials have done? It is to deliver food, and it is to deliver food to the orphans, widows, young and weak."

Gu Tianya sighed as he spoke, and suddenly pointed to the woman in the room, and said, "You can ask her, why is she, a helpless and weak woman, able to survive to this day? And her little girl, although They were crying for hunger, but why didn't they starve to death? If my guess is correct, it was the officials under my command who gave them food..."

The middle-aged scholar subconsciously looked at the woman.

And that woman stared blankly at Gu Tianya.

Suddenly she knelt on the ground, crying with tears in her eyes: "So it's you, it's you, the food we eat is actually given by you."

Gu Tianya sighed again, he didn't go forward to pull the woman up, but instead let her kneel and kowtow to himself.

He looked at the middle-aged scholar and continued: "I have promulgated many policies like this. And it is precisely because of these policies of mine that the people of Goguryeo have not been treated harshly...but!"

His words suddenly changed, and he said loudly: "But your rebels, instead, forcibly confiscated the people's food and clothing. For example, this woman and her Niu Niu, the officials under my command must have given enough food. But why does Niu Niu still cry hungry? Because someone took their food."

"Not long ago, when I gave her the money bag, she sat on the ground with a numb face, and kept saying that the money couldn't be kept..."

"Think about the time when we were staying overnight, what was her first reaction when she knocked on the door? She hid behind the door and begged in horror, saying that she had no money to pay us..."

"Why did she say that? Why did she have that fearful reaction? The reason is also very simple. Someone forced her to pay."

Gu Tianya's voice was cold, he suddenly looked at the old man, and asked with a sneer, "Old General Yu, tell me, who is robbing the food and who is collecting money from this woman?"

The old man sighed dejectedly, and said in a low voice: "Food can support soldiers, and money is military pay. Before the country is destroyed, it is used in the name of taxation. After the country is destroyed, it can only shout that this is for the great cause of restoring the country. With this The slogan of righteousness can be used to reach out to the people in this name. It is said that this is for the ethnic group. It is not true, this is a robbery."

Gu Tianya let out a breath slowly, turned his head to look at the middle-aged scholar again, and said, "Now, let me answer your question just now."

"Back then we Han people killed Hu and fought back because the common people were treated as livestock. If we can't survive, we can only die."
