Chapter 276: A single spark will start a prairie fire
Gu Nanxi’s victory at the border is like a shot in the arm, allowing this dying dynasty, which is strong on the outside and weak on the outside, with holes everywhere, to revive like a dead tree with spring. Come to life.
In the Zhenguo General's Mansion, every servant received a reward from Mrs. Niu, and they all smiled happily: "Thank you, madam, and thank you, the general who conquered the captives!"
Master Niu who returned from the imperial court He was bragging to Mrs. Niu: "Thanks to my keen eye for recognizing talents, I recommended Gu to the court." Nan Xi will serve as the border guard this time, otherwise, the court will probably suffer a lot of damage if someone else does it!"
Mrs. Niu was too lazy to pay attention to him, but was silently calculating and saving up during this period! How much money is there? I have to ask someone to send it all to the border one day. After all, raising cavalry is very expensive!
"Master and Madam, Mr. Niu is back!"
Mrs. Niu pushed Mr. Niu away and hurriedly ran to the door.
The young man who has just stepped through the door and looks as tall as a jade tree in the wind, as handsome as the moon in his arms, is he not his eldest son? !
Mrs. Niu thought about her son so much that she hugged her son and cried slightly: "Dalang, why are you back?"
Mrs. Niu's son's name is Niu Jinyi. The name is given based on the horoscope of birth date, combined with metal, wood, water, fire and earth.
Niu Jinyi patted Mrs. Niu's back and said in a gentle voice: "It's his unfilial son who makes his mother worried."
Mrs. Niu's heart softened into a puddle of water: "My son is the most filial, and he is already very filial at a young age." It is the pride of the whole family to win the title of Juren!”
Mrs. Niu didn’t notice that Niu Jin looked a little unnatural after hearing these words.
Master Niu followed him panting: "Madam, please tell your son to go and have a rest first. If you have anything to say, we will talk about it in the evening."
Niu Jinyi declined: "No need. Dad and Mom, I just came to see you, and there are classmates waiting outside.”
Mrs. Niu was surprised: "You even brought your classmates here? Why don't you come and sit at home?"
Unexpectedly, Niu Jinyi couldn't help but knelt down on his knees and kowtowed three times: "My son is unfilial. Without the consent of my parents, I decided to abandon my writing and join the army! This time my classmates and I are going to Fuming Town to defect to General Zhenglu."
Hearing this, Mr. Niu's eyes darkened! It was because he didn't want to go to the battlefield that he pushed Gu Nanxi up. Unexpectedly, his stupid son would take the initiative to die!
“No!”
Niu Jinyi knelt on the ground, like a green pine and strong bamboo, with a determination that could not be refused.
"The sky and the earth are vast, and the universe is vast. The young men of the Zhou Dynasty must stand upright and strengthen themselves. Today's responsibility does not lie with others, but with my young man. The wisdom of young people will make the country wise, the rich of young people will make the country rich, and the strong young people will make the country strong!"
< br>"When I first read "The Story of Gucheng", my son was fascinated by Yun Gucheng's words Tossing and turning, my son can't carry it on his shoulders, and he can't pick it up with his hands."
Master Niu was furious and cursed: "How can you dare to say that you dare to go to the border now? Do you care about your parents? ”
A trace of guilt flashed through Niu Jin's eyes: "My son did something wrong in this matter. After this battle, Border Pass suffered heavy damage. Even if the general who conquered the captives came back victorious, he would still need help if he wanted to rebuild the prosperity of the past. Although I He is unable to kill the enemy, but he organizes documents for the general, teaches children, and even does chores "It's possible."
Mr. Niu was so angry that he felt that his son had ruined his brain by studying, but he had to patiently coax him: "You will be admitted to Jinshi as soon as possible, and I will make a plan for you." Wouldn’t it be better to have an official position abroad? ”
Niu Jin's eyes were clear, as if he could see through everything, and his voice was soft and inaudible: "Dad, in the entire court, who else is determined to resist the war, except the General Zhenglu? Once you enter the court, you can't help yourself, and over time, you can't help it. , you will forget your original intention.”
These words were like a big slap on Mr. Niu’s face, making him unable to refute for a while. At this time, the money box that Mrs. Niu asked her servant to fetch also arrived.
Mrs. Niu touched Niu Jinyi's head and firmly supported her son's choice even though she was deeply reluctant to give up.
"My son is righteous! Whose child is not the treasure of his parents' hearts? They are willing to let their sons and sons go to the front line, and I will not hold you back! This is the money prepared by my mother-in-law and the ladies of various houses for the general. I wanted to ask a reliable person to send it over. Since my son is going to the border, I will leave it to you.”
Niu Jinyi didn't expect his mother-in-law to be so cheerful. She took the money box, kowtowed three more times, and left without looking back.
With tears in her eyes, Mrs. Niu put her fist into her mouth to block the sobs that were about to come out, and hurriedly chased her out of the house.
I saw dozens of young men, some wearing commoners, some wearing splendid clothes, some from Yuelu Academy, and one after another from Songshan Academy, and even students from Taixue joined them.
The person leading the charge was actually Song Zhizhou, the most tactful person in Baichuan Academy!
Under the bright sky, they have hills and valleys in their hearts and mountains and rivers in their eyebrows. They know that the road ahead is difficult, but they still move forward indomitably!
Until she could no longer see these teenagers, Mrs. Niu couldn't bear it any longer. She couldn't help but fell to the threshold and cried loudly!
I don’t know when the young lady of the Duke of Jiguo came over, her face was full of tears, and she sat down next to Mrs. Niu.
"Cry, my son also went with them. Well, what can he learn from his father in Kyoto? It is better to go to the border and practice more."
Mrs. Niu wiped her face, He took out a horse from the stable and climbed on it: "I'll go see them off again!"
Dozens of teenagers, in this Kyoto with a population of millions, are like those who fell into the lake. A pebble should not be able to make any ripples.
However, these young people are so energetic and passionate!
They chanted loudly: "The red sun rises, its path is bright. The river flows out of the undercurrent. The vast ocean plunges, the dragon dives into the abyss, the scales and claws fly, the tiger roars in the valley, and the beasts are terrified..."
Pedestrians send greetings to him At the strange sight, someone asked with a smile: "Where are you gentlemen going?"
The teenagers said in unison: "We are going to Fuming Town!"
Pedestrians understood instantly. They are a group of hot-blooded young people!
Pedestrians imitated the pre-Qin period and sang farewell, putting their best wishes in the songs.
"May your future be as bright as the sea and your future be long. How beautiful that I, a young man from the Great Zhou Dynasty, am as old as the sky! How magnificent that my young man from the Great Zhou Dynasty, my country has no boundaries!"
Mrs. Niu who finally caught up with me Seeing this scene, I couldn't help but stop.
The smiles on the faces of these teenagers are so carefree!
In the crowd, Song Zhizhou's wife nodded to Mrs. Niu with tears in her eyes: "A single spark will eventually start a prairie fire. The fire sown by the former general Gu Nanxi will soon rise with the wind!"
Mrs. Niu was relieved: "Young people are dazzling fire, and we are also the shining fire."
I don't know when, Gu Nanxi planted a seed in everyone's heart, and as soon as the spring rain fell, Will break out of the ground!
