The world is a teacher

Chapter 31 Reading 1 Ember of History

Xie Chang'an usually trains with the soldiers on weekdays. In order to learn some hard skills for survival, he also worked hard. He spent a long time at General Jiang's camp in the outskirts of Beijing before he begged for his consent.

Jiang Xiao's family has been in the army for generations and is a well-known family of generals. In a battle with the barbarians more than ten years ago, he is now the only male left in the Jiang family.

Jiang Xiao was very dissatisfied with the paperwork sent, he looked so polite, he didn't do his job well, what kind of training did he have with his thin arms and legs?

Xie Changan took great pains to block him again and again.

someday.

Jiang Xiao had just returned to the camp after offering sacrifices to the ancestral hall at home, feeling depressed beyond words.

Now he is the only man left in his family. Not long after this time, a fight broke out in the northwest. I heard that the results of the battle were very fruitful. Those people on the grassland have no food for autumn and winter, and they will definitely come south to grab it. The flames of war will surely reach Kyoto soon.

Can he come back alive to the battlefield that killed countless people in his family?

If not, grandma, mother... what should they do?

On the vast pasture outside the camp on the outskirts of Beijing, Jiang Xiao lay down and rested with his eyes closed, while the horse was grazing not far away, flicking its tail leisurely.

The sky is very blue and very broad, and it is the sky of Dayu whom his ancestors vowed to protect to the death.

After a while, a shadow enveloped him, and the sun became less dazzling. Jiang Xiao didn't open his eyes, and he knew who was coming by hearing the footsteps.

"I'm not in the mood to pester you right now." Jiang Xiao said lightly.

It was Xie Changan who came.

"Yeah." Xie Chang'an responded gently, didn't speak any more, and didn't walk away.

Jiang Xiao didn't bother to talk to him, and gradually fell asleep with the warmth of the summer afternoon, the comfortable grass bed, and the artificial shade.

Breathe evenly and relax.

There is clearly a child's innocence in the eyebrows and eyes, but the contours of the face are mature and stable that do not match his age.

Xie Chang'an sighed in his heart, and stood still without moving, thinking about the future.

The setting sun reflected the twilight in the evening glow, the sky in the distance was a fiery orange red, the floating clouds dissipated, and the golden light fell.

Jiang Xiao fell asleep soundly, and when he opened his eyes, the young man was still standing in front of him.

He blocked the light for an afternoon and did not leave.

Jiang Xiao's heart was complicated, and it was a little pleasing to see his face that harmed the country and the people.

"You haven't left?" Jiang Xiao got up and patted the grass clippings on his body.

Hearing this, Xie Chang'an turned his gaze back to look at him, smiled slightly, and did not speak. He stretched his limbs, feeling a little stiff and sore.

Jiang Xiao whistled, and after a while, he led the horse and reached out to him.

The twilight and the setting sun were rendered behind him, and the boundless green field was flattened under his feet. Against the light, Xie Chang'an couldn't see the expression of the young general clearly.

Frankly speaking, Jiang Xiao's appearance is masculine and tough, the kind of appearance that girls Huaichun have, and it is also the appearance that Xie Changan has always wanted.

He himself was too feminine to avoid being unmanly.

The horse's snort is hot, and the horse's hooves are stepping, handsome.

It is a fierce horse.

Xie Changan was taken aback for a moment, but he still passed out his hand to him.

Jiang Xiao pulled him onto the horse.

The delicate and cold touch in his hand made him a little dazed.

Oh, what a pair of literati hands.

Jiang Xiao thought to himself.

Daying camp on the outskirts of Beijing is also far away from here, so Xie Chang'an is quite far away for a walk today.

The horses are galloping, and the grass is shallow.

The sky and the earth are empty, and in the extremely fast movement, the soul seems to be washed.

Xie Chang'an's mood brightened, a smile appeared on the corner of his lips, and his pair of peach blossom eyes shattered the golden light, extremely bright.

Jiang Xiao glanced at him unintentionally, only to feel that this glance was soul-stirring, and his heartbeat almost made him suffocate.

This clerk is too feminine, he thought to himself, I will almost recognize him as a woman, and it’s good to exercise, if he really follows me on the battlefield, who has the energy to protect him, his face, if he falls into the hands of the enemy...

Xie Changan received an order to train with the soldiers the next day, and he also said that he could not use this as an excuse to delay his duty.

Xie Changan thanked you and smiled slightly.

They have become acquainted since then.

One day, they talked at night in Jiangfu.

"Uncle Father, I think, even if they are given another chance to fight, they will still go. Just like me now." Jiang Xiao took a sip of tea, under the candlelight of the room, he smiled helplessly at Xie Changan.

"There is no reason not to go," he said to himself: "As long as you go to the battlefield, life or death is your destiny."

Jiang Xiao: "Sometimes I feel that the only lesson we learn from history, maybe... is that there is no lesson. What do you think?"

Xie Chang'an nodded, his hair tied with a green hairpin, and he was wearing a silver robe.

His tame black hair was scattered on his shoulders, and in front of his profile, cast mottled shadows on his face due to the candlelight.

The young man has a jade face and a clear robe, with a straight back, a pair of peach blossom eyes that are slightly narrowed, and it is difficult to hide the sharpness, the wings of the nose flutter, and the full lips are slightly raised, revealing a smile.

"Your family is full of families, and they are all worthy of admiration."

Jiang Xiao was happy, and smiled boldly: "Haha, so am I?"

Xie Chang'an's respect is not fake, he is sincere and serious, those eyes make people reluctant to say anything wrong.

They were speechless for a while, they just drank tea silently facing each other, drinking wasted their time.

After a while, the candle suddenly exploded, and Jiang Xiao said, "I know you won't go to this battle. I have read your job transfer procedures."

Xie Changan was silent.

Jiang Xiao didn't expect him to say anything: "If I don't come back, help me take care of my house."

Xie Changan stared at him, his tone was more threatening than comforting: "You will come back."

Jiang Xiao smiled: "Ah. Do you just say yes?"

Xie Changan and him looked at each other, the two refused to give in to each other, both were stubborn to death.

Xie Changan: "I'd better go with you."

There is Shang Qing here, I heard that Mr. will come over soon, there is no shortage of him.

But Jiang Xiao... only him.

Xie Chang'an was in trouble since he was a child, his biological mother died early, the eldest son in the family was forced to be overwhelmed, his disregarded father, and his stepmother who was always picking on the wrong, they were difficult to get along with, and even often humiliated his brothers.

No one understands better than him what it means to be alone.

Jiang Xiao was surprised: "Chang'an is willing to give up for me because of the achievements of the dragon? Xiao is flattered."

Xie Chang'an punched him and gave him a sideways glance: "Poor. Try not to come back with me after the war, I can't take care of your house. I will take care of my own house, and I will fight too. If you die On the battlefield, if you die at the hands of barbarians, it would be better if I finish you with my own hands."

Jiang Xiao suppressed a smile: "Okay. I leave my life to you, please trouble the document to keep it for me."

In the past few months, they have more or less fought a few small encounters.

The enemy is tough and aggressive.

If you want to win, if you want to come back alive, it is difficult!

However, it's not bad for someone to accompany you to die.

To die for the country is difficult, and to die suddenly.

Apart from life and death, the rest of the world is nothing but business.

Jiang Xiao took Xie Changan's shoulders: "You are so sensational that I want to ask you for help."

The masculine and masculine breath almost came over him, enveloping him, Xie Changan tried his best to restrain himself from opening Jiang Xiao in disgust.

Jiang Xiao's chest seemed to be lit by someone, which made his blood boil and he couldn't bear the excitement. He smiled and invited Xie Changan: "Changan, would you like to sleep with brother Wei? From now on we will Brother. I thank you. I accept your favor."

Xie Chang'an's throat tightened and he couldn't speak: "I..."

Jiang Xiao was as careful as a hair, how could he not see that he was a little embarrassed, and his blood cooled down a bit.

Xie Chang'an stayed in the military camp for so long that he almost forgot that Chang'an was brought up according to literati's prescription, which was different from rough martial arts like them.

"Is it because I haven't thought about it comprehensively? Is this something that is not popular among literati? You should go to the guest room to sleep peacefully." Jiang Xiao calmed down, found a reason for himself, and found a way for Xie Changan to go down.

His eyes were clear and apologetic, obviously very innocent, but this time Xie Changan felt that he was coddling, and even a little ashamed of himself.

"No, literati also meet a bosom friend and talk all night." Xie Chang'an smiled softly, and his tone was friendly, comforting this beast of Yu State who was slightly hurt in his heart.

Jiang Xiao was overjoyed, and jumped up again, hanging on him, her head drooping on his shoulder: "I knew it, you must be different from those sour rots, don't care about that."

His sultry breath sprayed on Xie Changan's fair neck, making him a little unnatural and slightly stunned.

Xie Changan scolded himself secretly in his heart, do it for you.Let me see how you can sleep tonight.

The two talked nonsense again and again, and then went to bed.

Jiang Xiao almost stripped naked...

Xie Changan covered his eyes, secretly scolded himself for looking for trouble, took off his coat and went to bed.

Simply the bed is big enough, so there shouldn't be any contact.Xie Changan breathed a sigh of relief when he lay down.

But it turned out that it was too early for him to breathe a sigh of relief.

After finally falling asleep, at night he always felt that his chest was constricted, and Xie Changan was so out of breath that when he opened his eyes, he saw Jiang Xiao lying on his chest.

Xie Changan felt complicated: ...

Jiang Xiao slept like a child begging for protection from an adult.

Jiang Xiao is nineteen years old this year. He was only five or six years old when most of his family sacrificed, and he already had to shoulder the heavy responsibility of supporting the Jiang family.

As far as I know these days, Jiang's mother and Grandma Jiang also have a lot of control over him, extremely strict, but little warmth.

Also poor.

Xie Changan breathed a sigh of relief, and stroked his hair comfortingly.

Everyone was waiting for him to stand up to calm the huge waves and support the girder.

No one thought that he was just a frightened child.

No one stood in front of him to shelter him from the wind and rain.

Xie Chang'an is a despicable person. He thinks he has no father, no mother, no brothers. My husband taught me that Wen Ran is a good friend, and Wen Xu...

He hasn't thought of Wen Xu for a long time, that child should be doing well.

Jiang Xiao has the Jiang family's sense of mission and the Jiang family's sense of responsibility.

He is willing to practice self-cultivation, regulate the family, govern the country and the world, and he is willing to inherit the sacred knowledge and create peace for all generations.

He is willing to use his mere body and a small family in exchange for the stability of the frontier and the peace of the people.

He is a hero.

But no one did anything for him.

Xie Changan lay on his side, placed him gently, brushed away the trace of worry between his brows, his eyes were fiery and firm.

You protect the peace of thousands of people.

I keep you safe.

Perhaps the tiny us will not leave too many comments in the dust of history.

But I just want to do something for you.

History is a pile of ashes, but there is still warmth in the depths of the ashes.

People like you are probably the ones who still have warmth after history has been reduced to ashes.

You deserve to be treated with love.

I am willing to protect you with a humble body and treat you with a humble heart.

I hope you will be treated with respect by history.

You deserve it.

Jiang Xiao.
