Chapter 482 Past events pass by
After returning home.
Xu Wenyan still felt that the presumptuous guy was a little puzzling.
Xiaoman prepared the meal and called Xu Wenyan: "Wenyan, it's time to eat."
"Oh."
While eating, Xu Wenyan always had some bad thoughts in his mind. He always felt that Huo Min had discovered something.
In fact, when Huo Min said that Xu Wenyan looked familiar, Xu Wenyan also had the same feeling.
But as a time traveler, it was impossible for him to know Huo Min.
"What's wrong? Are you still in a daze while eating?" Xiaoman asked with concern.
Xu Wenyan came back to his senses: "Well, today I met someone..."
I told Xiaoman about meeting General Huo Min. Xiaoman didn't expect that Huo Min would appear here.
"Maybe he just looks familiar. You probably won't have the chance to meet him."
Xu Wenyan nodded: "By the way, Xiaoman, there are some things I have always wanted to ask you."
"That's what you say."
"It's about your background."
Xiaoman took a few more bites of rice and looked at Xu Wenyan: "You probably don't know my last name yet. My last name is Wei, and my name is Wei Man."
"guard?"
Xu Wenyan really had no impression of this surname. It could be said that there were very few people with the surname Wei.
"Do you remember the first time we met?" Xiaoman smiled and said, "At that time I had just escaped from Changling to Fengxian, and I had no money.
I just wanted to work as a waiter in Zuixianlou to earn some money.
I had been on the run for three or four years before this.”
"Escape?" Xu Wenyan knew that Xiaoman might have an enemy or something, but what kind of force could be the enemy that could make him keep running away?
"At that time, our Wei family was also a family of military generals. Although it was not as good as the current General Huo, it was not much different."
Being able to be compared with Huo Min, Xu Wenyan thought that the Wei family must be a first or second rank family.
Speaking of the Wei family, Xiaoman's face was full of pride: "Our Wei family in Beijing has been practicing martial arts for generations, so I naturally practiced martial arts since I was a child, otherwise I would have died countless times along the way.
When the late emperor was still alive, my father went on expeditions everywhere, and this frontier area was conquered by my father and several old ministers.
But I was still young at the time, so I didn’t understand the hardships involved.”
Xiaoman's eyes looked a little lonely.
"The Wei family has made great military achievements, but the previous emperor passed away and passed the throne to the current emperor.
When the current emperor first came to power, the new ministers were in power and overwhelmed the old ministers, but my father happened to be the one who held the most military power.
The new emperor was in panic, and with the instigation of his concubines, the old ministers were suffering.
In order to recover the military power, my father was first sent to the frontier, which is why I wanted to come to the northwest."
Xiaoman put down the bowl and chopsticks and slowly stood up: "How about we go outside and talk?"
"Yeah." Xu Wenyan nodded.
The two walked to the river and sat down on a bench, next to which they could hear the sound of flowing water caused by the windmill.
The moon is shining and the evening breeze is blowing.
Such a beautiful scenery should be refreshing.
“I want to come to the northwest, walk the path my father walked, and see the scenery he walked.
I didn't talk to him much, but I admired him and he was the best father in the world."
Xu Wenyan reached out and patted Xiaoman on the back. He was good at quarreling and swearing, but if you wanted Xu Wenyan to comfort people, he was really not good at it.
"The family thought that the emperor would not take any further action at this point."
"But he is so suspicious! As an emperor, he doesn't trust his generals and ministers!" Xiaoman raised his voice, his tone full of condemnation.
"Our Wei family has been loyal for generations, and we don't use loyal officials. But he listened to the instigation of treacherous officials!"
"When I heard that the Hu people's troops had invaded the Central Plains, I was actually very excited. I even wanted to help the Hu people and help them win."
Xiaoman calmed down, looked up at the moon, and said in a slow tone: "But, after all, this is our Han home.
Although the new emperor is so disappointing, this is the country...a place that cannot be violated."
"The new emperor used the Hu people to get rid of my father naturally, and sent secret guards to massacre my entire family." Xiaoman gritted his teeth, and the last few words were even more difficult to utter.
"But he can't solve the mess of the Hu people... It's really ridiculous."
Xiaoman looked at Xu Wenyan with twinkling eyes: "Wenyan, why do you think he is such a useless king, why doesn't he consider how to stabilize the country and let the people live and work in peace?
But he was always on guard against disloyalty and had no peace day or night.
Is he really worthy of being the emperor?"
Xu Wenyan hugged Xiaoman's shoulders and said in a gentle tone: "Xiaoman, you know? In our world, there is no emperor who would say such a thing."
Xiaoman was attracted by Xu Wenyan's words and asked in confusion: "If there is no leader, how will this country survive?"
“Of course we have a leader, we all have a unified belief!
In our place, men are not forced to be conscripted, and women can sit at the table and have their own achievements.
Even women can become leaders of a generation and they can fully display their charm.
People's lives are guaranteed, and the poor, the disabled, the elderly, and those who are unable to live independently all receive help from the state.
......
Everyone is equal.”
“Is there really such a place?”
Xiaoman's eyes were full of confusion. What Xu Wenyan said was something that he, as an ancient person, would never dare to think about.
If such a place really exists, it is a true paradise on earth, a heaven.
"Of course! Everybody in our place has enough food to eat and enough clothes to wear.
It is very difficult to implement such a system, as it is a republic that our ancestors have worked hard for hundreds of years to build.”
"If there really is such a place, what would it matter if I paid a little more?"
Xiaoman closed her eyes, tears streaming down her cheeks: "My father is a very gentle man, my brother is very reliable, and my sister is well-behaved and lovely.
I could have had a wonderful family.”
"If I lived in your country, I would be very happy, right?" Xiaoman looked at Xu Wenyan, his eyes full of hope.
Xu Wenyan rubbed his head and said, "Of course! A kid as handsome and gentle as you is so damn popular."
"Why do you call me kid?"
“I was already 23 years old before I came here. This is my fourth year here, so if you count it, I’m already 27.
To me, aren't you guys in your early twenties just kids? "
"Okay." Xiaoman slowed down his breathing and said, "Xu Wenyan, can you make that kind of country... the kind you mentioned come as soon as possible?
I want all children in the world to be happy.”
"I will try my best. Isn't this what we have to do now?" Xu Wenyan stood up and pointed at the moon.
"Xiao Man, just wait and see. I will make that damn emperor roll down, no matter what means I use."
Xiaoman looked at the boy in front of her with slightly red eyes.
Even though he just took it as a joke.
But these words are really heartwarming.
