- Chapter 298 Bathroom Fragrance
When Fang Jie left East 18th Street, all he heard along the way was people talking about the river of blood flowing out of Caishikou. More than two thousand heads were chopped off one after another, and heads as big as watermelons rolled around on the ground. It is said that the carriage carrying the corpse was lined up for a mile or two, and blood flowed down the carriage like a waterfall.
¡°I don¡¯t know why, but Fang Jie was a little glad that he didn¡¯t go to see the beheading scene.
It must be shocking and bloody.
Fang Jie listened to the excited chatter of passers-by and could imagine the scene in his mind. There was no sympathy in the tone of the people's conversation. In their opinion, these people deserved to die. Conspiracy is a serious crime. If you have the guts to do it, you must also have the guts to bear the consequences of treason.
"Have you seen that so many criminals almost peed their pants when they were dying?"
A passerby said sadly.
His companion nodded: "I saw it, the feces and urine were flowing down the pants. And the wailing sound, I'm afraid half of the people in Chang'an City can hear it. I'm scared to death, why did I go there earlier? ¡±
"Actually, we can't say that they all deserve to die. These people may not all know that their family members are rebellious."
"It is their misfortune to live in the same household as those who have committed serious crimes of rebellion."
"What do you think Prince Yi thinks? The Sui Dynasty is peaceful and the people are at peace, and the king is expanding the territory in the northwest. In such a world, there is actually a desire to rebel!"
¡°I don¡¯t want to be an emperor yet!¡±
A passerby snorted coldly: "The human heart is like a snake swallowing an elephant. I have sacrificed so many lives just to be the emperor. If I were an official of the Ministry of Punishment, I would have that scum cut into pieces with a thousand knives."
"right!"
"It should be cut into pieces by a thousand cuts!"
Hearing these words, Fang Jie's heart didn't even have a trace of emotion. It is definitely a gratifying thing for His Majesty to have such people in the Sui Dynasty. Now he understands more and more why His Majesty is unwilling to announce the defeat of the Northwest to the world. The people need an undefeated Sui Dynasty and a Sui Dynasty that is as stable as a mountain. The people of the Sui Dynasty who were accustomed to enjoying victory would find it difficult to accept it if they knew that the imperial court's 700,000-strong army had disappeared into thin air in the northwest.
This defeat in the Northwest War, the imperial court¡¯s losses were indeed so great that it made people¡¯s hearts tremble. What was lost was not only the 700,000 elites and millions of civilians, but also the weapons, armor, and food supplies that could equip millions of troops. The emperor had been preparing for this western expedition for so long, and all the supplies shipped to the northwest became spoils of war for the rebels. With those equipment, the rebels can integrate the defeated troops and greenwood bandits who have been incorporated.
The northwest is different from the hinterland of the Sui Dynasty. Although the areas under the rule of the Three Daos are not small, the climate is bitter and cold, and the food production is not much. Excluding the taxes paid to the court, there is not much left. Although there is no problem in living, there is no food left. In a disaster year, the court would allocate a large amount of grain and grass to provide relief. If the rebels take control of the granary and use this as an inducement to encourage the people to rebel, the people may be resistant at first, but March is the time of drought, and it will not take long for them to survive. They will compromise with the rebels.
Once the news that all three northwest roads were occupied by rebels spread throughout the world, it was hard to say whether the imperial court could withstand the pressure. At this time, His Majesty had to pay more attention to the four rivers and mountains in the southwest of the Sui Dynasty. Ifif Luo Yao takes this opportunity and no longer accepts the control of the court, and uses a large army to block the road into the southwest, then the world of the Sui Dynasty will really fall apart.
Luo Yao has no less than 300,000 troops. Since this number comes from Wu Daodao, the credibility is still very high. Fang Jie even suspects that Luo Yao has even more troops.
"Once Luo Yao really has a rebellious intention and raises the flag of rebellion based on the Four Southwest Roads, then the imperial court, which is already somewhat stretched in terms of military strength, may immediately fall into an even more embarrassing situation. The four southwest provinces have abundant food and grass, a land of plenty, and a much larger population than the three northwest provinces.
Moreover, the recognition and obedience of the people in the southwest to the Sui Dynasty was entirely based on Luo Yao's iron blood. Rather than saying that they were in awe of the Sui court, it was better to say that they were afraid of Luo Manzi's murderous knife. The people in the southwest were still people in the Shang Dynasty more than 20 years ago, and their memories of the previous dynasty are still very clear. They surrendered to the military power of the Sui Dynasty, but once Luo Yao rebelled, they became Luo Yao's source of troops.
The situation in the southwest seems calm, but in fact it is more worrying than in the northwest.
Once the northwest and southwest were all divided by the rebels, the Sui Dynasty would lose half of its country.
There were a total of twenty-four territories in the Sui Dynasty, and the western half of the territory totaled only nine territories from north to south. Now Li Yuanshan has occupied three territories in the northwest. If Luo Yao divides the four southwest lanes again, what will happen to them?I am afraid that the two frontiers in the middle will not last long. Once Luo Yao's troops leave Yongzhou, the imperial army to suppress the rebellion has not yet been assembled, and the remaining two territories may have been swallowed up by Luo Yao's men.
Going to the southwest is a journey for Fang Jie.
If Luo Yao really has a counter-intention, Fang Jie is really afraid that his head will be hung on the flagpole as a sacrifice.
"But Luo Yao sent someone to Chang'an at this time to ask for a marriage from His Majesty Who knows what An is thinking?
¡¡
¡¡
Fang Jie's thoughts went from the death row prisoner at Caishikou to Luo Yao in the southwest. While his mind was still thinking about it, he had unknowingly returned to the shop. He looked up at the slightly empty street, and suddenly felt a desolate feeling in his heart. March, which should be a time of great vitality, why does it seem so lonely?
Entering the shop, Mu Xiaoyao, who was sitting in the living room waiting for him to come back, immediately stood up. Fang Jie waved his hand and walked to the chair a little tiredly and sat down.
"Fang Jie, what's wrong?"
Mu Xiaoyao, who was the most sensitive, immediately noticed something strange about Fang Jie.
"It's okay When I came back from the Yanwu Academy, I happened to encounter the imperial court beheading the imperial prisoners. There were more than two thousand people, and there was a river of blood."
He glanced a few times, but did not see Shen Qingshan: "Where is Qingshan?"
"She said she was going for a walk, but I didn't ask where she was going."
Mu Xiaoyao shook his head and replied.
Fang Jie hummed, took a sip of water and said, "We have to prepare. I guess the order to send me to the southwest will come down in a few days. I begged Luo Weiran, you must follow me. This time, stay with me when you go out. Everyone should be taken with us. If anything happens, we can retreat without worrying about the people staying in Chang'an being trapped."
"You have a bad feeling?"
Mu Xiaoyao asked.
Fang Jie nodded: "I always feel that going to the southwest this time will not be smooth. If you are not afraid of ten thousand, just be afraid of the worst."
"I'm going to take a shower"
He smiled at Mu Xiaoyao, stood up and stretched his body, then said calmly: "Zhuang Die is dead She was among the prisoners executed today."
Mu Xiaoyao didn't have a deep impression of this woman named Zhuang Die. He only had a vague feeling that she was a pretty girl.
"Sister Xiaoyao, please rub your back for me."
Fang Jie suddenly said something, which made Mu Xiaoyao's face suddenly turn red. Helping Fang Xie take a bath was nothing new to her. It is not an exaggeration to say that Fang Jie grew up in her arms. When he first started to venture out, Fang Jie was still an infant and she was only twelve years old.
"oh¡¡"
She responded,
Following Fang Jie, he felt a little at a loss for some reason. She wouldn't have felt like this before coming to the Imperial Capital. She always felt that Fang Jie was still the child who needed her to carry his belt when running for his life, but this child had turned into a man unknowingly.
Walking into the bathroom, Fang Jie naturally took off his clothes.
He sat down in the big wooden barrel and closed his eyes.
He is used to washing in cold water, no matter winter or summer.
Shen Qingshan took the bucket and slowly poured water on him. He didn't stop until the water in the huge bucket reached Fang Jie's neck. Looking at Fang Jie's majestic male body and angular muscles, Mu Xiaoyao blushed even more thoroughly, looking like a delicate peach blossom in full bloom.
She sat next to the wooden bucket, stretched out her hand and gently scrubbed Fang Jie.
"Sister Xiaoyaoyou said we came to Chang'an, were you right or wrong?"
Fang Jie, who was leaning on the barrel, asked softly.
"Why do you ask?"
Mu Xiaoyao's fingers roamed gently on Fang Jie's chest, and her fingertips rubbed the skin.
"I'm thinking, if we hadn't left Fan Gu, we might be dead by now. It seems like it was right to leave the northwest and come to Chang'an. But after arriving here, why do I feel less and less like myself? ?¡±
Fang Jie took a deep breath and said in a bitter tone: "I know Zhuang Die deserves to die. She violated the laws of the Sui Dynasty and no one can save her. But why am I so uneasy? Have I changed? Are you becoming more and more cold-blooded?¡±
He turned around and held Mu Xiaoyao's hand. He buried his head in Mu Xiaoyao's chest and rubbed it, as if looking for warmth. Soon, the water on his hair wetted a large area of ??Mu Xiaoyao's clothes on her chest. That red dress is a familiar red dress.
"You are still you."
Mu Xiaoyao subconsciously hugged Fang Jie.He raised his head and pressed his chin against Fang Jie's forehead: "It's because you have been under too much pressure these days. In the past, when we were in Fan Gu, and before we arrived in Fan Gu, we were responsible for everything, and we were here to protect you." You. And now, you are trying to protect us, trying to carry everything on your own shoulders. You will feel tiredwhen you are tired, you will have random thoughts. "
Mu Xiaoyao¡¯s scent gradually calmed down Fang Jie¡¯s mind.
"Sister Xiaoyao, I'm afraid that one day when I get used to the intrigues in the officialdom, I get used to watching with cold eyes, I get used to killing people like crazy, will I no longer be myself?"
"Why do you think of so many things?"
Mu Xiaoyao stroked Fang Jie's cheek distressedly: "Don't be afraid, in the worst case, we will fly away again. Even if everyone in the world is your enemy, we will stand behind you."
Even if everyone in the world is your enemy, we will stand behind you.
These words made Fang Jie's heart tremble violently.
"Small waist sister"
He raised his head, looked at Mu Xiaoyao's delicate face, suddenly put his arms around her neck, and slammed his lips against Mu Xiaoyao's lips. Mu Xiaoyao's body suddenly stiffened, and his hands were spread out as if he didn't know where to put them. Fang Jie's kiss was very long, so long that it suffocated her.
When the kiss ended, Mu Xiaoyao's face was already extremely hot.
"Fang Jie"
She was confused and didn't know what she wanted to say.
Fang Jie blocked her mouth with his lips again, then picked her up and placed her on him. The barrel was very big. Although it could accommodate two people, a lot of water in the barrel overflowed suddenly. The red skirt on Mu Xiaoyao's body was all wet, and it clung to her body, outlining her curves perfectly.
"Give me"
Fang Jie kissed her cheeks and earlobes randomly, a little crazy.
Mu Xiaoyao was stunned. She knew that this day would come sooner or later, but she felt that she was not ready yet. She lowered her head and looked at Fang Jie, feeling suddenly very scared.
She hugged Fang Jie and felt the man's body temperature.
"I¡¡"
She opened her mouth, and finally raised her hand to slowly unbutton the front of her red dress. Fang Jie suddenly grabbed her hand, looked at her and shook his head: "Wear this red dress."
He picked up Mu Xiaoyao and asked her to bend forward and hold the edge of the barrel. Mu Xiaoyao in this posture appears to have a slimmer waist and plumper hips. With trembling hands, he pulled up Mu Xiaoyao's red skirt from behind and pulled it over her hips. Then he pulled off the underwear under her skirt, which was a little rough.
The bright red dress that was soaked by water clung to Mu's small waist, making it look even brighter compared to her dazzlingly white skin.
Under the red skirt, her round buttocks are so beautiful and alluring.
Fang Jie put his hands on her slender waist, and the perfect arc in his sight made his blood boil. Under her round and perky buttocks, those two beautiful legs were very tight She was very nervous.
Fang Jie held her waist and felt the warmth.
Sprint.
