Kaiyuan, is this a year name?

In history, emperors used many year names, and there were many repetitions, but Kaiyuan had only one year name, which was the year name used by Tang Xuanzong Li Longji when he was in power.

He Shu hesitated: "Are you from the Tang Dynasty?"

Guang Han nodded.

"That year, Turkic civil strife, old and new factions fought each other for power, Dengli Khan was in the hands of his uncle, and was killed by Dengli's jealousy. His children fled overnight and lived in the Central Plains. Some became refugees, some Some were reduced to coolies, and some were bought by high-ranking families as slaves. Among them was a woman who was bought by the confidantes of the new Pinglu military envoy at that time, and offered to the military envoy. The horse made me happy and soon became a concubine."

He Shu: "That beloved concubine is your mother?"

The story Guanghan told was too mysterious, and the hints given to him were too obvious, so He Shu had to guess in this direction.

"Yes, she is my biological mother."

"So, your mother was Turkic at that time, and your father was Han?"

He Shu guessed that if the story hadn't been related to his brother's life experience, he might have been more interested. After all, the person sitting in front of him was a person from the Tang Dynasty.

"Bingmashi, I remember if it was the predecessor of Jiedushi? Tang Dynasty Jiedushi can be called a feudal town, and power is almost like a local government, so your biological father should not be an unknown person."

"He is indeed not an unknown person, but he is not Han." Guang Han opened his lips and said slowly, "His name is An Lushan."

He Shu was shocked by a thunderbolt from the blue sky.

An Lushan, one of the protagonists of the Anshi Rebellion.

Anyone who has received compulsory education knows that this person has a great reputation, but he was also one of the instigators of the beginning of the chaos in the Mid-Tang Dynasty, and occupied a considerable amount of space in that chaotic history.

It can be said that without him, many things would not have happened later.

"You...wrong!" He Shu was a little confused, "An Lushan is also a barbarian, but your appearance——"

Although it also has a high nose and deep eyes, it is not reminiscent of ethnic minorities or foreign origin.

Seeing him like this, Guanghan raised the corners of his mouth and smiled slightly.

"My biological mother is a descendant of Turkic people and Han people. She looks more like a Central Plains person, and I also inherit this."

"An Lushan did have two or three sons. I remember that they were all named in the history books. Which one are you?"

"Neither."

His mother was just a concubine at that time, that is, the kind without a status, and a Turkic exile.

That year, An Lushan was on the rise, and he was a rising political star. He wished that even his hair could be dyed the color that the emperor liked. Not to mention that he was only greedy for the beauty of Guanghan's biological mother, even if he had been sincere, he would not Possibly give her an official title.

With such a life experience, Guanghan's treatment can be imagined. He was not even allowed to be named An. Even the name Guanghan was the name of Guanghan Palace and Laurel when the wet nurse held him in his arms and looked at the moon in the summer night. The allusion became the pseudonym he used on the battlefield in the future.

The world only knows about Guang Han, but not his amazing life experience.

He grew up with the servants in the mansion day by day.

As early as when he was three years old, his biological mother passed away due to fading love, and his biological father had no shortage of sons. The other party even had a vague memory of having such a son under his knees, but after all, he had grown up and was soon recognized It is impossible to get any special treatment if thrown into the army for training.

He started as a small soldier, relying on his military exploits and the merits of real swords and guns on the battlefield, he was promoted step by step, from an unknown soldier to a fire chief headed by five people, a team of 50 people, and then up, one step at a time , It has never been a fluke to trade military merits for military positions.

Almost no one knew his origin, and the only special treatment was that during the military drill, his biological father, as the coach of tens of thousands of people, walked past him, stopped, patted his shoulder, and straightened his collar for him.

Such a little bit of attention has also become the envy of colleagues around Guanghan. Everyone says that he has made outstanding contributions, killed countless enemies on the battlefield, won the favor of the coach, and will be promoted in a short time.

But when he arrived, he was still living in the army step by step, without surprises or surprises. Guanghan had long been used to it, and he was not ashamed of his background—no one can choose his background.Of course, he is not proud of it. This kind of life is like his innate destiny, which cannot be changed but accepted.

Such a day is very far away for He Shu.

A person living in modern society cannot imagine the life in the ancient military camp, let alone the ancient low-level military officers.

The only consolation is that An Lushan is favored by the emperor, and the Pinglu army under his command has never been short of salary. Sometimes An Lushan regards it as a private army in order to buy people's hearts, and even pays for the soldiers himself Extra subsidies.

But these preferential treatments are almost useless to Guanghan.

Other soldiers would write letters and send them home to marry their parents, younger brothers and sisters when they saved money. Guanghan was alone with only one wet nurse alive. to the nursing mother.

He later found out that as early as the second year after he joined the army, his wet nurse had passed away due to illness, and the money he sent went through twists and turns, and finally disappeared without a trace.

Two years after Guanghan joined the army, his biological father rebelled.

The Tang Dynasty, which has been in peace for many years, is like a gorgeously decorated beast, which looks threatening. Once the soldiers approach the city, it immediately shows its weak original shape. The court officials have never seen such a scene. The army drove straight from Fanyang and killed all the way to Chenliu County.

Due to the rebellion, An Lushan's eldest son who had married the princess and settled in Chang'an was killed by the emperor. When the news spread here, An Lushan took revenge and ordered the massacre of the city. Not only did the surrendering officers kill each other, but even the people in the city did not let go. However, wherever the rebel army went, every household, men and women stayed behind, gold and silver treasures were looted, and blood gathered from the gully in front of the door to form a stream, winding on the entire bluestone street, covering the main street of the entire city. Dyed dark red.

"You were among them?" He Shu couldn't help asking.

Guanghan hummed.

He was there.

Seeing those honest and taciturn colleagues in the past exposed their human greed in front of the huge temptation, Guang Han made a move.

He stopped the butcher knives that two of them were stretching towards a child, those two were possessed by killing gods and wanted to push him away, Guanghan kicked them down directly, and put their heads into the bucket next to them to calm down.

But he could stop this one, but he couldn't stop more tragedies.

There were wailing sounds all over the city, and a woman in disheveled clothes escaped from nowhere, and was quickly dragged back by two or three soldiers with obscene smiles. Guanghan's ears were filled with such misery.

Loyal to the emperor and serve the country, love the people like sons, these eight characters have nothing to do with Guanghan.

He didn't even have the slightest awe of the Chang'an emperor whom he had never met before. He still didn't know what he would do in the future, and joining the army was his only choice right now.

It's just that any individual, as long as he has some humanity, can't just sit back and watch such things.

Guanghan is not good at words, and he does not intend to use fancy rhetoric to persuade these red-eyed rebels, he directly chose to stop killing by killing.

Finding a group of rebels who had just slaughtered the whole family of the people and were attacking the family members of the family, Guanghan directly swept away with his spear and severely injured the five of them. Naturally, more rebels rushed to him upon hearing the news. Escorted to the coach.

Maybe this person dared to attack his own people, and his behavior was so unique that even the coach couldn't help but want to see him.

Then, he finally met his long-lost biological father.

"Do you hate him?" He Shu asked.

Guanghan shook his head slightly, thought for a while, and said: "Maybe it was a little bit at first, when I was young, seeing other people's rich clothes and rich food, after all, I also had envy and longing."

After all, those brothers who came from the same father received a world of difference from him.

"But in the future, there will be none." Guanghan paused, "There is no liking, and there is no hatred."

"Why, because you gave up hope in him?"

"Maybe, I didn't have any feelings for that person. As for myself, from a very early age, I knew that I was no different from duckweed all my life. Wherever I floated, I didn't care."

For some reason, He Shu felt stuffy in his heart, and an indescribable sense of suffocation was spreading.

Just like he felt that he was not Qin Huangwan, so he couldn't empathize with what happened to her, and he couldn't fully put himself in Guanghan's situation at that time to imagine what it was like, but it didn't mean he didn't feel uncomfortable.

This uncomfortable feeling was even worse than when hearing Qin Huangwan's story.

"A little hope, no?"

He took the trouble to ask again and again, not because he couldn't understand the other person's words, but as if asking a little bit of positive hope could make him feel better, even though these things happened in the distant past.

He Shu couldn't help getting up, and sat down next to Guanghan. The cold iron still felt cold through his clothes, but at this time he also felt less uncomfortable, and he didn't even want to delve into this Guanghan who knew him. What is the difference between cold and cold? I just want the other party to feel the warmth of the world a little bit.

"It's okay, brother, and I'm still here!"

He stretched out his hand to pat Guang Han's shoulder, but he felt the hardness of his armor.

Tsk, it's still a little awkward.

Guang Han raised the corners of his lips slightly, barely visible in the darkness.

"If you want to talk about hope, there is still some."

That is to live.

Ants are greedy for life, let alone people.

He is no longer sad or happy, that is because he has been desolate since he was a child, and his heart is like an old man, which does not mean that he does not even want to live.

So Guanghan who saw his biological father was also very calm, just like he usually treats his colleagues.

His biological father also asked him the same question as He Shu.

"do you hate me?"

He looked at the other party, who was sitting on the steps, looking down at him with complicated eyes, but Guanghan didn't intend to investigate.

Guanghan also gave the same answer.

"Don't hate."

The man immediately said: "You are lying!"

Seeing that Guanghan was silent, the man said again: "Your biological mother died early, and you have no status with me. You have been with the servants of the mansion since you were a child, and I will free you. I will not give you any preferential treatment, even if you can read and read. , you don’t have serious teachers like your elder brothers, but old servants teach you. After you can read a few words, you are thrown into the army to practice and suffer countless hardships. , I don’t even know your life experience, you say you don’t hate?”

"I don't have a big brother." Guanghan said indifferently, looking directly at the other party, "I'm alone, I have nothing to worry about, I have nothing, and I'm not afraid of losing anything. You didn't even think about looking for me, just because An Qing Zong died, and you lost a son, so you just thought of me on a whim."

Anger flashed across the man's face, and then disappeared quickly.

"From the moment you were born, they said that you have rebellious bones in the back of your head, and you may become a serious problem in the future. I pity you. After all, you are my blood. I didn't do anything. As expected, you have grown into a white-eyed wolf today."

For the sake of ambition, a hero who can recognize a concubine who is much younger than himself as his mother, entertains others with his own humor, and calls others a white-eyed wolf. This may be the funniest joke Guanghan has ever heard.

But he didn't smile, just shook his head.

"You have reversed karma."

The other party sneered: "Forget it, you go."

Guanghan said no more, turned around and left.

His biological father didn't kill him, but he didn't give him any preferential treatment for meeting him either.

Guanghan is still the middle-level officer with outstanding martial arts but insignificant military rank, but in the eyes of the people around him, he killed his comrades but did not get any punishment for it, which in itself is a kind of special treatment.

Since then, Guanghan has become an outlier in the eyes of people around him.

During the massacre, everyone was burning, killing and looting, but he disappeared, and sometimes he would appear in a certain family's house, protecting them from being killed by the rebels, those who wanted to attack him could not beat him, and those who wanted to sue The news that was handed over often fell silent, and soon everyone knew that this guy had a background and could not be offended, and they were even more reluctant to get close to him.

He was unwilling to kill good men for meritorious service, he was unwilling to plunder gold and silver, and he was unwilling to attack unarmed people, so he was naturally out of place.

Finally, on a pouring rainy night, the man named Guanghan disappeared from the Pinglu army.

He left without a sound.

The military order is like a mountain. If such a deserter is caught back at the moment, he will be flogged to death. Afterwards, a large number of people were sent out just to find Guanghan. Strange, whether there is an order from the coach is unknown.

But no one could find Guanghan, he disappeared completely without leaving any trace as if he had never appeared in this army.

The wheel of history is still moving slowly.

This rebel army became a turning point for the dynasty from prosperity to decline. Chang'an, once "thousands of households smashing clothes", became an abandoned city where "palaces were burned, and ten not one survived".

The bones are thousands of miles away, and the vegetation is exhausted.

As dusk returns to the west, the green hills are still sad.

"I guess, you must not go to pick chrysanthemums and meet Nanshan leisurely under the eastern fence, right?"

He Shu made a joke, as if he wanted to ease the heavy atmosphere.

Listening to people tell stories in the underworld, this kind of experience is really unprecedented, and this experience is enough to show off for half a lifetime.

But because this story happened to Guang Han, he didn't feel a bit out of it.

People's birth and reincarnation are very dependent on luck.

I would rather be a dog of peace than a person in troubled times.

Guanghan is the true portrayal of this sentence.

With his ability, if he was in the Spring and Autumn and Warring States period, or the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China, he would be a separatist at least. If he was in a modern society, he would be able to become an Internet celebrity like he is now, and it would not be a problem to support himself.

But in the Tang Dynasty during the Anshi Rebellion, as An Lushan's illegitimate son, where could he go?What can he do?

The world is so big that there is nowhere to go.

"I'm still going to join the army." Guanghan said.

He has learned the ability to kill the enemy, and he can only live in the army.

Guanghan went to Shuofang Army, under the command of Pugu Huai'en at that time.

Naturally, no one would recommend him, and he still had to start from the bottom of the ranks.

With his martial arts, he soon made his mark in the Shuofang Army. By chance, he was favored by Pugu Huai'en and placed beside him as his personal guard.

No one knew that he was originally a member of the rebel army, but he transformed himself into the side of the court to suppress the rebellion. Guanghan followed Pu Gu Huai'en to fight on the battlefield, went through life and death, and never retreated half a step. But every time he awards a reward, he habitually gives up the credit and distributes it to others.

Because Guanghan knew that his background was not visible, the higher he rose, the more likely he would be exposed, and it was the safest way to be unknown like this.

Pugu Huai'en admired him very much, and once wanted to marry his daughter to Guanghan.

"You're not tempted?" He Shu joked.

Guang Han shook his head: "That was a long time ago."

Pugu Huai'en admired Guanghan, and taught him a lot of things, from martial arts to formation of troops, and later, he basically treated him as his son. Although Guanghan never apprenticed to a teacher, the two have always been commensurate with each other. .

But Guanghan knew that Pugu Huai'en was special to him, and he might even have known his background for a long time.But the other party didn't say anything, and still treated him as before, and even persuaded Guanghan in private, telling him that his parents' background is not optional for him, only his future, he can work hard on his own.

"Pu Gu Huai'en, this name is so familiar..." He Shu patted his knee lightly, remembering, "A famous general in the Tang Dynasty, Guo Ziyi's subordinate, right! One of the heroes who put down the Anshi Rebellion, unfortunately—"

"It's a pity that he rebelled later." Guang Han said lightly.
