Volume 1 The War in the Northwest Chapter 12 Sleeping

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    In the next few days, Yang Rongjin followed the imperial edict and never left the General's Mansion for even a moment.

    Every day, apart from playing the piano, he also lets Lian'er talk with him.  From his chat with Lian'er, he learned that there were many martial arts masters like Lian'er in Li Jilong's house.

    Most of them are Li Jilong's personal favorites, and only a few of them will be given as gifts to senior officials in the court.

    Yang Rong did not expect that the Jiaji class, which had existed since the Qin and Han dynasties, would be so prevalent in the Northern Song Dynasty. Even Li Jilong, who dominated the battlefield, was not out of the ordinary.

    "Lian'er, have you ever thought that it's unfair to you to be a plaything for others?" After playing the Yao Qin again, Yang Rong sat at the table and looked at Lian'er with a slight smile on his face.  He said to her with a smile: "If you are willing, after a while, I will find you a good family. It is much better to find a good man and live a peaceful life in the future than to let others molest you."

    "Does the general hate Lian'er?" Yang Rong had just spoken. Lian'er, who was sitting on a stool nearby, quickly stood up, hung his hands in front of him, lowered his head and said to Yang Rong: "If Lian'er provokes  The general is not happy, the general just reprimands, I just ask the general not to drive Lian'er away."

    "I'm not driving you away!" Yang Rong stood up, put his hands behind his back, walked to the window, looked at the vegetation in the courtyard, and said to Lian'er: "You and I are both human beings, and I'm not any more noble than you.  . A beautiful and considerate girl like you should have found a good family, so how can she be a slave for the rest of her life?"

    "Lian'er is destined to be like this!" What Yang Rong didn't expect was that after he said something similar to liberating women, Lian'er lowered his head and said in a low voice: "General Li has sent Lian'er to  I gave it to the general. If the general doesn't want Lian'er, Lian'er will have no choice but to die to prove his innocence."

    "Okay!" Standing by the window, Yang Rong frowned tightly. After a while, he sighed, turned around and said to Lian'er: "When this recent incident is over, this general will lead  You go to the mistress and ask her to agree to take you as my concubine."

    "Thank you, General!" Lian'er thanked her quickly when she heard that Yang Rong would take her as his concubine.

    There is still a huge gap in status between the wife and the concubine.  When domestic servants live in their master's house, although they have to take care of them and sometimes give birth to their children, they are always in the position of slaves.  The concubine is different. Once a domestic servant is taken as a concubine by the master, her status is no longer a pure slave, but a half-mistress, and she can also use some servants in the family.

    Yang Rong agreed to take her as his concubine without even touching her body. Lian'er felt inexplicably moved in her heart.

    "General, please let Lian'er sleep with you today!" Standing in the room, Lian'er pursed her lips first, then lowered her head and said a little shyly: "If the general has never even touched Lian'er's body, how can he  Convince the mistress to welcome Lian'er into the family?"

    Yang Rong frowned slightly, thought for a moment, then nodded after a while, and said to Lian'er: "You can come and sleep with me tonight."

    With Yang Rong's promise, Lian'er quickly thanked him, turned around and walked out.

    After a while, she turned back again, holding a white silk in her hand when she entered the room.

    When passing by Yang Rong, Lian'er's pretty face flushed, she bowed slightly towards Yang Rong, and walked straight towards the big bed in the room.

    Arriving at the bedside, Lian'er spread the white silk flatly on the bed, then pulled back the quilt, covered it with the white silk, and then stood aside.

    "It's still early and it's not time to rest yet." Seeing that Lian'er had made the bed and prepared the white silk to verify her virginity, Yang Rong shook his head helplessly and said to her: "Stay with me.  Let¡¯s go for a walk in the garden. I¡¯ve been in my room these days, and I¡¯m really feeling a little depressed.¡±

    Lian'er didn't say anything, just responded and followed Yang Rong out of the room.

    The courtyard of the General's Mansion is divided into two parts: the inner and outer. Although the outer courtyard is large, it is also very empty. On weekdays, only some servants move around.  The firewood, vegetables, rice and flour used in the house are all transported from here.

    As for the inner courtyard, some pavilions and small ponds were built, as well as several flower gardens.

    After walking out of the room, Yang Rong and Lian'er walked straight towards the pond in the backyard.

    In the past, Yelu Xiuling¡¯s favorite thing was to sit by the pond and watch the fish swim leisurely in the pond.

    Walking to the edge of the pond, Yang Rong chose a smooth stone and sat down. He patted another stone next to him and said to Lian'er, "Come, sit here!"

    Lian'er walked to Yang Rong obediently and sat next to him.

    After she sat down, Yang Rong moved his body, faced the pond with her, and asked her: "Have you ever left?"Driving through Tokyo city?  "

    Hearing his question, Lian'er raised her face and looked at him, first shook her head, and then nodded.

    Seeing her shaking her head and nodding, Yang Rong stared at her in confusion for a while, but did not ask her why.

    "Lian'er is not a native of Tokyo!" Sure enough, Yang Rong didn't ask, but Lian'er took the initiative to say: "Lian'er is originally from a Taoist family in Hebei Province. He came to Tokyo with his parents when he was young. He originally wanted to seek refuge with relatives, but he didn't want to.  After finding their relatives, the parents sold Lian'er to raise money for their return to their hometown. Fortunately, General Li bought it. If he had entered the door of an unscrupulous family, he would have endured so much hardship and suffered so many crimes. It was impossible.  I met the general."

    After hearing what Lian'er said, Yang Rong lowered his head and frowned tightly.

    There are too many injustices in this world, although there are a few people who can work hard to make a future like him.

    But more people are struggling at the bottom of society, living a life of hunger and suffering from the pressure exerted by the so-called upper class.

    There should be many people like Lian'er in this world.

    In the past, Yang Rong always hoped that through his efforts, more people could live a good life.  But after several years of hard work, he discovered that the world was not as simple as he imagined.

    In the past, he was just a civilian, and he liked to meddle in other people's business.  But now that he has become a general, he no longer cares about the sufferings of the people, at least not individual sufferings.

    He can't control it, and he is beyond his capabilities. The only thing he can do is to maintain the stability of this world as much as possible and prevent foreigners from invading the Song Dynasty. This is to do his best to be honest.

    The fish in the pond were swaying and swimming in front of their eyes. From time to time, one or two fish would turn over, stir up a wave, and then dive into the water again.  (To be continued. Please search Piaotian Literature, the novels will be better and updated faster!)
