Chapter 422 A strange combination of circumstances
I don’t know how my son is doing.
His son's name is Goudan.
I was in poor health when I was young.
For many years, General Yu was worried.
He hasn't been home for a long time.
I haven't seen my mother and son for a long time. I don't know how they are doing.
Although General Yu had many worries in his heart, he still felt uneasy while eating the food of the Great Jiang Kingdom.
The people of Dajiang were very kind to them.
Never skimp on a single meal.
General Yu served the Great Qi State.
However, military pay never reached the soldiers.
Even he, a general, had no military pay.
He and many of his soldiers experienced life-and-death situations together.
He never expected that these warriors risked their lives to defend their country, but never received a single meal from their superiors.
This made him feel extremely uncomfortable.
This kind of pain is unprecedented.
At this moment, it formed a sharp contrast with what the Great Jiang Kingdom was doing.
This made General Yu feel heartbroken.
This is his responsibility, and this is the country he serves.
In the end, he ended up with nothing.
And just then.
Jiang Jiang told her brother Lin Shan about the pigeon message.
Lin Shan came to the tent in person.
Jiang Jiang knew General Yu.
He is a brave and skilled general.
Not only does he have his own opinions, he is also very capable, loyal to his country, and has outstanding abilities.
However, he encountered a foolish and incompetent emperor and suffered a lot.
So, Lin Shan and Jiang Jiang sent the old lady and her son Goudan to the Kingdom of Dajiang.
In this way, General Yu will no longer have any worries in the entire Great Qi Kingdom.
The purpose of her trip was to incite General Yu to rebel.
I wonder what he feels.
Perhaps since he had been imprisoned in the Great Jiang Kingdom for such a long time, he should know how the emperor of the Great Jiang Kingdom treated his people.
Not like the emperor of the Great Qi Kingdom.
He only knew how to indulge in sensual pleasures and exploit the people, and he wished he could peel off their skin.
They have never had the people in their hearts, only their own interests.
I just want to make my life better.
They also constantly exploited and oppressed the people, and even delayed the payment of military salaries.
Jiang Jiang resolutely sent the old lady and Goudan to the Kingdom of Dajiang.
General Yu was also personally entertained by Lin Shan.
Lin Shan walked up to him step by step.
General Yu stared at him.
That is the emperor of the Great Jiang Kingdom in front of him.
He could only say that seeing is believing.
I saw that he had sharp eyebrows and bright eyes, and was as cold as frost.
He exudes a calm aura.
He never dreamed that he would be treated like this in the Kingdom of Dajiang.
They not only treated the prisoners well.
He also gave them a full meal, which was something he had never dared to hope for. How ironic. When he was fighting on the battlefield, he often went hungry, but now he was able to eat a full meal as a captive.
This meal was given by the enemy.
This caused General Yu to feel a surge of anger.
Then Lin Shan walked up to him and asked, "Are you General Yu? You have a son named Goudan."
"What do you want?" When General Yu heard this, his eyes widened and he glared at the man.
He roared, "Don't touch my son, don't touch my mother!" He was so angry that he blurted out.
And the good impression towards the Great Jiang Kingdom also disappeared at this moment.
Seeing his reaction, Lin Shan could not help but shake his head helplessly. "I didn't touch them. I just wanted to say that your mother was almost trampled to death by the imperial master's horse."
Lin Shan said to the general.
"What did you say?"
National Division?
General Yu naturally knew the Imperial Master, as he was the Imperial Concubine's younger brother.
He was a man of no talent or knowledge, yet he became the state teacher of the Great Qi State. He could neither observe the celestial phenomena nor perform rituals.
But he is deeply trusted by the emperor.
The imperial teacher often galloped freely on the streets like a wild horse.
Just to have fun and enjoy yourself.
General Yu was well aware of all this, but he never expected it.
His mother was nearly trampled to death by the imperial master's fierce horse.
Before this, he was secretly thankful that the horse's hoof did not step on him and his family.
Unexpectedly, the world is unpredictable and he ended up bringing disaster upon himself.
"How is my mother?" At this moment, he was like an ant on a hot pan.
Staring closely at Lin Shan.
He was desperate to get an answer from Lin Shan. He was extremely heartbroken.
I never imagined that my family would one day suffer such a great hardship.
That national teacher is simply a devil, he has no humanity at all!
At this moment, General Yu felt as if his heart was being cut by a knife, and he was in so much pain that he could hardly breathe.
He worked so hard here to defend his country, but his mother was almost trampled to death by those high-ranking officials.
He knelt down and kowtowed to Lin Shan without hesitation. This time, he had a little more respect for Lin Shan.
All this is for my mother.
Lin Shan told him: "It's OK, my sister saved him. Now, your child and mother are safe, and I am ready to send them here. Because when my sister was saving them, she accidentally turned the carriage of the Imperial Master's Mansion into dust, and I'm afraid the people of the Imperial Master's Mansion are looking for them everywhere."
"As for the people from the Imperial Master's Mansion, we must find them before we will give up. You know that."
General Yu has always been well aware of all this, and he knows the character of the Imperial Master. He has always been a narrow-minded and vindictive person.
If anyone provokes him, he will pay them back a thousand times over.
Today it is his mother and his son, tomorrow it may be someone else.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" He immediately kowtowed to Lin Shan.
Lin Shan just waved his hand lightly, and the old lady and Goudan came here as if teleported.
Goudan has now fully recovered.
No longer as sickly as before.
His body is as strong as a calf.
He spotted his father in the crowd at a glance.
He immediately shouted "Dad" at the top of his lungs and ran towards General Yu.
The whole person's eyes were filled with tears.
The old lady is the same.
She never dreamed that what the fairy boy said was actually true!
Fairchild not only filled their stomachs.
She also cured her grandson's illness.
The grandson's body became extremely strong, and the old lady was filled with deep gratitude.
She also slowly walked up to General Yu.
When General Yu saw his mother and son standing in front of him, tears welled up in his eyes. He murmured to himself, "Am I seeing this right? Am I seeing this right?"
He immediately hugged his son and mother tightly.
There he kept crying and shouting.
The old lady also told General Yu everything she had experienced.
It turned out that ever since her grandson fell ill, life at their family had become increasingly difficult, and she hadn't eaten for a long time.
So they went to pick some wild vegetables and sell the vegetables they grew themselves.
I didn't expect to meet someone from the Imperial Master's Mansion.
The people from the Imperial Master's Mansion drove their carriages and rushed towards her like hungry wolves.
He almost stepped over her like a mountain. At this critical moment.
Thanks to Jiang Jiang who came like a savior.
This saved him from being trampled by the carriage of the Imperial Master's Mansion and saved his life.
However, the people in the Imperial Master's Mansion were in a miserable situation.
She witnessed with her own eyes the Imperial Master and his lackeys falling off the carriage like kites with their strings cut.
The national teacher vomited blood.
Only then did the old lady realize that she had completely offended the imperial teacher.
So, Jiang Jiang suddenly had an idea and pointed out a clear way for him, which was to go to the Kingdom of Dajiang.
What's more, Da Qi and Da Jiang were already at loggerheads with each other, and there had been constant conflicts on the border recently.
The emperor of the Great Qi Kingdom was obsessed with annexing the Great Jiang Kingdom and did not take the Great Jiang Kingdom seriously at all.
General Yu had heard of Lin Shan's sister.
All I know is that she is a fairy child.
But he never imagined that this fairy boy would actually save the lives of his mother and son one day.
This made General Yu burst into tears of gratitude towards Jiang Jiang.
At the same time, I am full of gratitude to Lin Shan.
Afterwards, General Yu told his mother everything he had seen and heard.
His words were filled with endless sorrow, and his mother held his hand tightly.
She burst into tears and said, "Son, I don't expect you to be successful. I just hope that our family of three can live in peace and have enough food and clothing. This is my biggest wish."
"I really don't want you to pursue fame, fortune, or do anything dangerous. I just hope you can be safe and sound. This is my greatest hope!"
The old lady couldn't help but walk towards General Yu.
Muttering to himself.
Goudan hugged his father's arm tightly.
Because in his heart, no matter his father was a general or an ordinary soldier, he was just an ordinary person.
There's nothing special about it.
They are all his father.
Goudan also tightly grasped his father's arm and said to him: "Dad, I just hope you can be safe and sound, and I don't want you to become a high-ranking official. Being a high-ranking official is too tiring. '"
General Yu felt heartbroken when he heard his son's words.
Yes, his mother and son only hope that he can be safe and sound, and do not expect him to succeed.
Because high-ranking officials mean more responsibilities and obligations.
General Yu sighed, nodded slowly, and said, "I understand. I understand all of this."
He couldn't help but say this to his mother and son.
The mother and son heard him.
Tears welled up.
He also told his mother and son about his experience in Dajiang. It turned out that he was not abused by Dajiang, but was treated well.
Here, they can not only have enough food to eat, which is a luxury for them.
The other prisoners were also doing well.
Even gained a lot of weight.
This is such a great irony!
General Yu then looked at the soldiers behind him.
His face was full of righteousness at the moment, and he asked loudly: "Brothers, what do you feel here? It's really ironic that we have always longed for military pay, just to fill our stomachs and to stop our relatives from starving at home."
"However, this military pay has been exploited by many levels and has never reached us. Although I am now a small general and a small leader, I have never seen this military pay. It was all embezzled by those corrupt officials. What's more ironic is that in our own country, we have never had enough to eat."
"But when other countries defeat us, they can still fill their stomachs. This shows how foolish our emperor is. He only favors that evil concubine, and the evil concubine's brother bullies others by taking advantage of his power. He is rampant in the streets, oppressing the good, doing all kinds of evil, but no one controls him."
"It's because he has the supreme privilege. Now we are here, not only can everyone have enough food, but also live a good life."
"When it was cold, they gave us cotton-padded clothes and new clothes. When did we ever wear new clothes?"
"We just want our families to live a good life. Now we are here to defend their country, fight for them, and invade other countries for them. But they treat us like this. Brothers, are you willing?"
"Are you willing to be trampled under someone's feet for the rest of your life? I thought that even though the national teacher had committed many evil things, he would not bully my family. But I didn't expect...he would actually trample on my family, and my mother was almost trampled to death by him."
"They showed no remorse at all, as if human life was worthless to them, just a toy for them to play with."
"They keep trying to kill him. They don't want people to live well. Our wishes are so humble. We just want to live well and have enough food to eat, but we can't even meet these basic needs. Now, we can't even save our lives. Why do they force people into such a desperate situation? They are simply forcing us into a dead end!"
General Yu had tears in his eyes.
He said to the brothers below with tears in his eyes: "You and I are brothers who have gone through ups and downs together. We all know the suffering and hardship. I am also a human being, a person with flesh and blood and my own family."
"However, my family was bullied and almost died, but they didn't even apologize. They treat humans as animals. We may be worse than animals, brothers! I really don't have any extravagant hopes. I don't want to be a marshal, and I don't have any big ambitions. I just want you to be able to eat well and live a stable life like me."
"Because I think that having enough food is the most important thing, and only having enough food can make you the happiest."
He spoke to the soldiers under his command.
While he was speaking
The soldiers' eyes were already wet. Yes, their biggest wish was to have enough food to eat.
Now throughout the Great Qi State, they were starving and had no food to eat.
Even your own life could become a plaything of those princes and nobles if you are not careful.
Even a glimmer of hope is hard to find.
Now, although General Yu is a general, his mother is about to be ruthlessly trampled to death by the carriage of the national master.
If Jiang Jiang hadn't come to the rescue, they would have probably died long ago.
They can't even afford medical treatment. The common people are really desperate.
