I am an ancestor in an enemy country

One autumn rain and one cold, another autumn rain fell on the capital, Song Shiwen woke up from the cold early in the morning.

He was only covered with a thin layer of quilt. If it was summer, the thickness of the quilt would be just right, but in autumn, the weather became colder. This kind of quilt was not enough to withstand the deepening chill in Kyoto. I didn't sleep well, and didn't fall asleep until it was almost dawn.

But in the early morning, there was another autumn rain outside, and the autumn wind blew in with the autumn rain, making it even colder.

Unable to fall asleep again, Song Shiwen woke up, wanting to go to the kitchen to get some food.

Seeing Su Fan frowning from a distance, Song Shi asked, "What's the matter?" He was depressed early in the morning.

Su Fan shook the rice vat in his hand, with a worried expression on his face, "My lord, the rice is almost gone."

There was only a thin layer of rice in the rice vat, and the sound of shaking back and forth in the empty rice vat showed that they were in a very desperate situation at this time, and it was not enough for their meal. Song Shiwen sighed, "Then we Just make porridge."

Su Fan put the last rice in the pot, and began to worry about the future, "My lord, this is our last grain, we have nothing to eat now, and all the money we brought over has been spent. What can I do next?"

Su Fan's worry is not unreasonable, it doesn't matter if he is hungry, but Song Shiwen is also the prince of Nanyue Kingdom after all, even if he is a hostage in Liang Kingdom, he shouldn't be treated like this.

Song Shiwen, the eleventh prince of Nanyue Kingdom, came to Liang Kingdom as a hostage.

Three months ago, Daliang Kingdom and Nanyue Kingdom fought. Unexpectedly, this war ended in the defeat of Nanyue Kingdom in less than half a month.

But everything seems to be taken for granted, and there are traces to follow. Because the King of Nanyue has been addicted to wine and sex in recent years, he has abandoned the government, and his actions are ineffective.

What's even more exaggerated is that at the critical moment of the battle on the front line, the officials of the DPRK and China actually withheld military salaries and enriched their own pockets. The army can't wait to surrender immediately.

The soldiers of Daliang Kingdom invaded Shangjing City, the capital of Nanyue Kingdom, overnight with a destructive posture.

In the panic, the Nanyue King took the emperor and his ministers up and down to submit letters to the Liang Kingdom in a panic, and made offerings every year.

To show sincerity, Nanyue Kingdom voluntarily let a prince go to Kyoto as a hostage.

To put it simply, the proton is as a hostage, leaving his hometown and going to the enemy country. To put it bluntly, it can also be said that he is a prisoner. Once the two countries go to war again, the proton will bear the brunt.

King Nanyue has many sons, but they are reluctant to let them go to Liang to die. When he was at a loss, the old man next to him reminded King Nanyue, "Your Majesty, don't you still have a prince, the one who has been raised in another courtyard."

It was only then that King Nanyue remembered that there was such a son in another courtyard outside the palace, who was born to him and a court lady.

The court lady was very beautiful and charming, and King Nanyue took a fancy to her immediately.The queen is jealous, and at first she didn't think there was anything wrong with it. The king of Nanyue was known to be lustful, but when she knew that the maid who had favored her all night was pregnant, she couldn't do it. She was so angry that she wanted to kill the maid. The maid was sent to another courtyard.

And promised the queen never to see her again.

The queen just gave up. Nanyue Wang originally thought that when the time was right, he would take the maid back to the palace to give him a title, but there would be new beauties in the palace every year. Nanyue Wang was addicted to beauty, and slowly He completely forgot about the people in the other courtyard.

The court lady gave birth to Song Shiwen in another courtyard. When Song Shiwen was two years old, he accidentally fell into the well and drowned.

Poor Xiao Song Shiwen was thrown alone in another courtyard, living a very hard life without enough food and clothing, because he was a little prince who was ignored and disfavored, and Xiao Song Shiwen was often insulted by the eunuchs in the other courtyard. Luckily, a court lady Su Momo in the other courtyard couldn't bear it, and often secretly helped Song Shiwen, so he managed to survive till now.

And Su Fan is Nanny Su's son, one year older than Song Shiwen, and grew up with Song Shiwen. The relationship between the two is very good. Su Fan takes care of Song Shiwen like a brother.

Undoubtedly, Song Shiwen became the candidate for the proton. Su Fan was worried that Song Shiwen would suffer alone in the capital, so he resolutely decided to follow Song Shiwen to the capital.

Before leaving Shangjing, Song Shiwen went to meet King Nanyue. This was the first time he had seen his so-called father king since he was born.

The king of Nanyue was also stunned when he saw Song Shiwen. The 16-year-old Song Shiwen was so beautiful, very similar to his mother, and three points more beautiful than his mother. The beautiful court lady felt a little regretful in her heart.

When leaving Shangjing, King Nanyue didn't ask Song Shi anything, and the only person accompanying him was Su Fan.

Song Shiwen didn't want Su Fan to go to the enemy country with him to suffer, but Su Fan didn't want Song Shiwen to go to Liang country alone, so Song Shiwen had no choice but to let him.

When he finally left, the King of Nanyue only gave Song Shiwen ten taels of silver. The King of Nanyue said that because of the war between Nanyue Kingdom and Daliang Kingdom these days, all the money and silver were spent on the war, the military expenditure was huge, and the treasury was short of money, so there was no money. More money was given to him.

Song Shiwen looked at the resplendent and resplendent hall. King Nanyue was sitting on a dragon chair made of pure gold, wearing extravagant costumes and did not speak.

As long as he can leave Nanyue Kingdom, leave here, and be a proton, he is also willing.

Song Shiwen and Su Fan stumbled all the way to the capital with the dilapidated carriage.

It has been a month since Song Shiwen arrived in the capital of Liang State, and he has not seen the king of Liang State so far.

The courtyard where they are now is designated by the king of Liang. When they first came, the courtyard was very desolate. It seemed that no one had lived in it for a long time. The place where the wind and rain are sheltered, although it still leaks wind and rain when there is heavy rain and strong wind, it is still a clean yard after cleaning, but this is a very good result that Song Shiwen thought about

Without him, because Liang Guo was forced to send protons to Nanyue Kingdom ten years ago, Liang Guo would definitely not give Song Shiwen a good look.

During the one-month stay in Kyoto, Song Shiwen also inquired about some situations. The current king of Liang is 24 years old. After ascending to the throne five years ago, he used decisive methods to wipe out several small countries around him in one fell swoop. , Invincible, this young king destroyed several small surrounding countries within a few years.

When the King of Liang attacked the neighboring small countries, only the King of Nanyue ignored him and was still addicted to wine and sex. Ten years ago, Nanyue was able to defeat Liang, so he can still defeat them now, but the King of Nanyue has forgotten that the current Nanyue The state of Liang is not what it used to be, and the state of Liang is not the state of Liang ten years ago.

The war lasted for half a month, King Liang was invincible, and almost attacked Shangjing. It was said that he was almost because the rumored fierce and violent King Liang did not invade Shangjing, but just surrounded Shangjing. King Nanyue saw that the situation was not right, and immediately Raised the flag to surrender, and sent a prince to Kyoto as a hostage.

Before coming to the capital, Song Shiwen had heard about this king of Liang, who had a cruel and vicious temperament and was decisive in killing.

Song Shiwen didn't question this point. The emperor who was able to control the emperor himself could see that he was cruel and violent after destroying the surrounding small countries in a short period of time.

But one thing he didn't understand was that Liang Guo's army had already approached the city at that time, and it was within easy reach to destroy Nanyue Kingdom, so why did they accept Nanyue Kingdom's surrender in the end.

Unexpectedly, Su Fan had already cooked porridge, Song Yunxi cut some pickles, and within a month of coming to the capital, the money they brought had been used up.

This porridge was already their last ration, which meant that it would be a problem for them to eat and drink in the future.

Su Fan poured half of his porridge into Song Shiwen's bowl, "My lord, eat more, I'm not hungry."

Although Song Shiwen is a prince, his life is not as good as that of an ordinary child. He has suffered a lot since he was a child, and now he is thin and weak. His face was pale, and he looked even more vulnerable.

When Su Fan thought about Song Shiwen being forced to come to Liang Guo as a hostage, he became angry, "No one regards the prince as the prince on weekdays, and now they have to choose a proton, and they just remembered that there is such a person as the prince, it's too deceiving , Shizi, they just think you are too easy to bully."

Su Fan talked about how the Nanyue King was ungrateful and ungrateful, and the more he talked, the more angry he became. Then he looked at Song Shiwen drinking the porridge in the bowl with a calm face, and then listened to Su Fan with a calm face, as if what Su Fan said was Su Fan was puzzled by other people's affairs, "My lord, aren't you angry?"

Song Shiwen smiled, "Why are you angry? I think it's good."

He and Song Shiwen grew up together, and he clearly remembered that when Song Shiwen knew that he had been selected as a proton and sent to Liang Guo, Song Shiwen's face showed a happy and relaxed joy.

He didn't understand at first, but later he understood that King Nanyue was getting older and the battle for the throne was getting more and more fierce. However, there are still people who regard him as a thorn in their side and plan to murder him. Song Shiwen almost lost his soul to Naiheqiao several times.At least in Liang Guo, Song Shiwen didn't have to worry about his life.

But their basic necessities of life are now a problem.

The weather is getting colder and colder, and they don't even have winter clothes now, how can they survive the long winter in March.

Song Shiwen carefully opened the small wooden box with crude carvings, and there was a jade pendant inside.

The color and texture of this piece of jade are all top-notch, very clear, without a trace of impurities, and has a warm and simple light. Song Shiwen gently rubbed the jade pendant, feeling very entangled in his heart. It was taken from an older brother, and he had no choice but to give it to him after he made a fuss about it. He still doesn't know the name of that older brother.

When the elder brother was about to leave, Song Shiwen said that he would definitely look for him in the future, and Song Shiwen also promised to take good care of the jade pendant.

When Su Fan saw Song Shiwen took out the jade pendant, he guessed what he was going to do, "My lord, isn't this jade pendant you have always treasured, are you going to take it?"

Regarding the origin of the jade pendant, Song Shiwen did not hide it from Su Fan.

Song Shiwen bit his lip and finally made a decision. After all, they don't have enough food or clothing to keep warm.

He thought that if he had a chance in the future, he would definitely redeem this jade pendant.

Song Shiwen and Su Fan went to the biggest pawnshop in Kyoto to pawn the jade pendant, and when they came out of the pawnshop, they had a heavy money bag in their hands.

Although I know that the pawnshop has greatly lowered the price of the jade pendant, but the money given can barely survive the winter in Kyoto, which is enough.

After collecting the money bags, Song Shiwen took Su Fan to buy two thick quilts first, and then some food for storage.

Su Fan was holding two thick quilts, and Song Shiwen was carrying a bag of rice back to the courtyard. At the corner of the street, Song Shiwen suddenly lost his footing, and the rice in his hand almost fell to the ground.

He saw a familiar figure passing by.

elder brother?
