The Spring Festival in 386 AD was the most miserable year I had. There is no festive atmosphere in Guzang City, only a few red lanterns hang in front of the palace gate, which looks extremely dazzling. There were few people walking on the street, and people all looked at the snow on their knees with sad faces.

Before the holiday, Lu Shao posted a notice to settle the hearts of the people in the city, and each household could receive two buckets of food with their household registration. But when we finally arrived, Lu Shao saw us and refused to give me food. I was almost angry and cursed in modern terms. Fortunately, Li Hao sent ten buckets of millet, but it was still in full swing, and lasted only five days.

During the day during the New Year's Eve, I hesitated and then hesitated outside the shop. The real pawnshop has not yet appeared in this era, only some shops operate this kind of goods mortgage business. Finally, he walked in with his teeth clenched, because to this day, there are no grains of rice at home.

Put the five thousand text purse into your arms. Such jade pendants and hairpins of pure quality and fine workmanship can only be exchanged for five thousand texts, only enough to buy ten buckets of multigrain. I'm sorry, Vrsati, I promised to keep your gift forever. When I get through this winter, I will definitely redeem them, no matter how much money I want to spend. Go out of the shop and touch the wedding ring hanging around my neck. I won't sell it anyway. But how long can I persist? The corners of the eyes are a little wet, and I can't help but sigh heavily.

"How is it? Can't hold on anymore?"

A young, broad face in front of me was looking at me with a trace of sarcasm. It's Monson! I wiped my face casually with my sleeves. I didn't want to be involved with him too much.

"Why should I suffer this kind of suffering when I'm a Chinese New Year? The girl who was pretty water-skinned was so yellow and thin, it really made me feel distressed." He stopped me, and looked like a pity for flowers and flowers. Yeah, I’ll be full. Think about it, how?"

I didn't answer. Looking around, he was alone.

"What's wrong? What do you see?"

"To see why you have to act, there is not even an audience." I replied angrily.

He was stunned for a while, then he laughed: "Ai Qing, you are really interesting."

I was stunned: "How do you know my name?" No one called my name except Rosh after I got out of Guizi.

"The book Lang Duanye told me." He smiled slightly and said meaningfully, "He also said a lot of interesting things about you in Guizi."

Duan Ye has followed Du Jin to the battlefield, which shows that Duan Ye told Monson before he left. It was already two months ago. After he bumped into me in the palace, he went to check my background immediately, because the sentence that leaked his heart? How deep is this man's mind? Why did he inquire me?

He rubbed his hands and said in a relaxed tone: "It's so cold, accompany me to a warm bar."

I looked up at him and continued to be silent.

"Don't worry, you are the Archmage's wife anyway, not just a civilian girl who can be robbed casually. Besides, I'm not forced to be a woman. I will drink lamb with me and you can eat lamb. Haven't you eaten it in a long time? There are only a few families who can eat mutton in this big city. How about it, go with me?"

I couldn't help but laughed. Because I think of Zhang Dongjian's classic "Follow you, eat meat" in "Wuji". The more funny I think, the more I can't laugh. I haven't laughed in a long time this winter. After laughing, he gestured to the inexplicable Monson. I certainly don't worry about what he will do badly, as he said, there is no need for this. Intuitively he should want to say something to me. If he believes in Chenwei like Duan Ye, maybe I can still lie about it and cheat on it.

So I walked deeper and shallower on knee-high snow and came to his luxurious house.

"How? Can I see this mansion?" He looked around and smiled smugly. "It's a gift from the world. People of my family are now on the expedition with the cool king, and I am happy to lie back and relax at home. !"

He is not used to acting in masks all the time, with a chuckle: "It's your uncle who doesn't want you to steal the cousin's head for merits, so don't take you on purpose."

He turned his head quickly, converged and laughed, his thoughts flashing. I was a little annoyed that I was too quick to speak. I laughed, and suddenly smelled a taste that has almost been forgotten: red braised lamb! God, how long has it been since I smelled meat? After setting the tableware and chopsticks from the servant and putting the mutton in the middle of several cases, his eyes have not changed. The smell of the meat in front of you, the taste buds are strongly stimulated, and saliva is secreted involuntarily. In order not to be underestimated by Monson, I forcibly turned my head away and tried my best to look indifferent.

Monson smiled knowingly and pushed the lamb to me. I restrained my appetite, swallowed heavily, and said to Monson: "General Juqu, if you don't mind, I want to take it back to eat."

"Don't earn so much, just call me Monson. See you so hungry, eat it first. I'll ask someone to make another dish for you to take away later."

The sudden and generous generosity of a person who can't guess the thought will not make me happy. With a short mouth, I still better understand his condition. "Little General Ju Qu should not just give the concubine such a valuable lamb just to find someone to drink with. Can the General speak bluntly?"

He chuckled and raised his head to drink a glass of wine: "Shall I remind you to call me unfavorable again? However, I never thought it would be so interesting to talk to you. Well, I like to be so straightforward. I am indeed looking for You, the purpose is very simple—"

He put the wine glass heavily and stared straight at me, with the look of the hunter's desire for prey in his eyes: "I want you to be my woman!"

I am drinking tea in an attempt to suppress hunger with water. Hearing this, he almost spewed out. Choke on the trachea, patting his chest quickly, and turning his eyes to think. I absolutely don't believe that he fell in love with me at first sight because of the few encounters. Such an owl is always more important than a woman. He asked straightforwardly: "Why do you want me?"

He laughed arrogantly for a while, and then smiled conscientiously, saying: "Because you are not simple. The first time I see you, you are hit by a horse and there is no fear. Acting generously, it is different from the women I know. When the palace saw you for the second time, I did want to take you away at first, but I was shocked by that sentence. How did you see me acting on the street when you saw me once? Then I realized that you were actually a monk's wife. What kind of woman did she dare to marry blatantly with a prestigious monk? It took me a lot of thoughts to find out what you were doing in Guizi from Duan Ye. Duan Ye respected you so much, that Then I became curious."

"There are many refugees, and you are helping the disaster relief people. The identity of your monk's wife was awkward, but because of this good deed, it has won the admiration of the people. This won't be able to do so for the average woman. Let me say that for the time being, you still have the ability Let Li Hao pay for it. Li Hao is not a fool, how did you persuade you?"

He paused, grinned, and carefully explored my eyes: "Ai Qing, you know that your eyes seem to be able to gain insight into people's hearts. Every time I just look at me, I feel that everything in my heart is seen by you. I can say it again. Li Hao, I am afraid that you will be persuaded to do the same. So I know that you are what I have been looking for and can help me become a woman of great cause!"

He filled the glass again, and drank it, his sharp eyes were bright and sharp: "I am unprecedented, and I will never be a mortal child. When I am born in troubled times, it is a good opportunity for my husband to establish merit. When there is something to do. I have only a few concubines, and I have not yet married a wife. If you want to laugh with me and be proud of the world, I can treat you as a wife. As for your marriage with Master Rosh, this was not recognized by the world. .You leave him, but he is beneficial to his practice. We Huns are no better than Han people. Even if you have married a few men before, I would not care."

After he finished speaking, he kept staring at my reaction. I sighed and picked up a piece of lamb with chopsticks. The stewed lamb entrance was so delicious that I closed my eyes and admired it. Ignoring what he expected, fill my stomach first. No matter how I respond to him, I have to eat enough to deal with it.

After eating most of the dishes, I felt a bit full. It's been a long time since I felt this way. Looking at him like an eagle eye, he calmly replied: "I know what you want. The position of a wife should be reserved for someone who is more helpful to your great cause. As for me, you don't need to marry me, there is a more Good advice, I wonder if you are willing to listen?"

Surprised on his face, he nodded to signal me to continue.

"General Juqu, you are capable and ambitious, and you will be able to do something in the future. But, to achieve this goal, one is to wait for the opportunity, and the other is to cultivate self-cultivation. I know you are involved in literature and history, and I don’t know if you have a king’s skill. Are you interested?"

He really raised his eyebrows, his sharp eyes longing for a flash. I smiled slightly: "I know the Great Western Qin Kingdom, there is a strange person who wrote a book on the art of monarchy. I can learn some Spanish, I have read it fortunately, I am deeply impressed. Unfortunately, in this chaotic world, there are many heroes. , But no one deserves to listen to me explain this wonderful book. I wonder if the little general is the fate?"

I paused to meet his smart eyes. He glanced at me for a while, his lips ripped, and finally asked, "What do you want?"

"Five buckets of food every day."

He stared at me for a long time, and suddenly burst out laughing: "Ai Qing, Ai Qing, five buckets of food a day, fifty buckets on the tenth. To survive the winter, at least a hundred buckets of food can be compared to mine The main room is harder. Where do you tell me to find so much food?"

"You have." I sandwiched another piece of lamb, chewed slowly, and swallowed. Drinking a sip of tea, he said slowly, "One of the conditions for surrendering to Lu Guang is the food. Now all your people are fighting outside, and your uncle Luo Qiu is also a shrewd person, and he will never do everything for Lu Guang. Bring it. The people who stayed in the Juqu tribe in the city will count your highest position. This surplus food must be in your custody."

His smile fainted, his eyes showing thumbs up: "What a great woman."

Rolling his eyes, he supported his jaw with one hand and stared at me meaningfully: "Even if I have food, I have to see that the value of the goods is not worth buying."

When I was an undergraduate, I was once famous for the famous Duke of Valentino, Italy, during the Renaissance. Polkin was very interested. Therefore, he repeatedly studied the "Monarchy" that regarded Sizer as an ideal monarch, wrote a paper, and was recommended by the boss to a professional magazine. "Monarchy" is just a booklet, so I can remember the complete content.

At the moment, he smiled calmly and asked: "Little General, I only ask you one question: do you think the monarch is loved or feared?"

"This..." He looked at me with a little hesitation, "Naturally it is loved by others."

I shook my head: "The odd person's point of view is: the ideal is to have both. If not, it would be more frightening to choose. The fear of maintaining by discipline is more powerful than the love of maintaining by grace, because people offend oneself. People are less worried than offending a person who fears them."

"It's true." He frowned sternly and nodded his thoughts. "Fujian wasn't too thick for human virtue. Instead of killing and depriving prisoners, he was treated preferentially. But he was deceived as soon as he fell down and eventually died of a rebel. The hand. If he was willing to kill his royal family at the beginning of the Xianbei and Qiang people, he would be fearful and would not be defeated. It can be seen that Liwei is indeed more important than Lide."

I shivered for no reason.

"Is that just a few words?" He played with the wine glass, and his eyes gave me a sharper light. "That's not enough for me to exchange food."

With a sigh in his heart, he was really cunning enough to force me to shake more baggage. Recalling the original words of Machiavelli in The Theory of Monarchs, he raised his eyes and said to him: "He also said that the monarch should be brave like a lion, cunning like a fox, and vicious like a viper to those who betrayed him. Huai, loyal to faith, honest and reliable, and godly. But when he needs it, he must also understand how to discard all good qualities. In short, to achieve the purpose, you can use any means, and the purpose is always to defend the means. But you must not lose your hearts, Therefore, the monarch needs to be a hypocrite and a liar."

He didn't respond for a while, and the eyes of the Hawk kept turning. Then, I looked up at me and smiled, and said, "Okay, but I have to explain to my uncle after all, and I can only give you two buckets of food a day."

I carried two buckets of millet home and handed it to Hu Yanping. These grains were divided into more than two hundred and thirty people, and they could only be served once a day, barely maintained. This is already my best effort. Other than that, I can't think of a better way to find food.

Pull out Roche, who is cutting the veins of the refugees, walk to the corner of the street, see no one around, take out the things wrapped tightly in his arms. Remove oil paper layer by layer to reveal the lamb inside.

"Where does this come from?" He looked at the oily meat in surprise, although it was cold, but still smelling sweet. He could not help swallowing.

"I bought it, and I became the lion Peiyu and that jade hairpin given by Vrsati." Zhizhiwuwu said, daring not to look at his eyes.

I have been calculating how to tell Roche about the source of these foods. I thought of countless ideas, but they all overturned. It's not easy to lie to Roche, but how can I tell him that I got it in Machiavelli's "Monarchy"? Machiavellianism is highly controversial in modern times. How can Roche's pure ideas be accepted?

"Ai Qing..." He looked at me with guilt, his eyes full of distress, "I will definitely redeem you when we get through this time."

He looked at the mutton again, remained silent for a while, and then asked me, "Why not buy grain? Meat is more expensive than grain..."

"Don't worry, these two jade articles are good-looking goods, and have been used for a lot of money. The grain has also been bought, and Pinting and Gongsun Madam are already cooking porridge. This meat is specially bought for you..."

I looked distressedly at his sunken thin cheeks, stubble with a blue chin, and the whole person looked so haggard. "Today is the New Year's Eve, I want you to eat better."

He smiled gently and took my hand: "Let's take it back and cook it in porridge. Let's eat with everyone."

"Rosh!" I was a little anxious and could not stand still. "This mutton is only enough for one person. There are more than two hundred people at home, and it can't be divided into minced meat!"

"Ai Qing, I know you love Roche. Just, how can you have a little love and forget all beings?"

I turned my head and grimaced immediately: "Yes, I am a little woman, and I only have little love in my heart. I became a gift from Vrsati, and I just wanted my husband to be hungry at least for the most part. !"

Can't help crying. Although the mutton and food were obtained from Monson, I still did not redeem the two jade items. I'm afraid I'm in a hurry, but there's no one around me. However, I am really reluctant. If my modern items can be sold, I would not want to sell this jade. For me, those two things are the link that I miss Vrsativa. When I can’t sleep in the long night, I will touch the jade lion and tell him in my heart that Roche and I had a good time and were very happy...

"Ai Qing..." He wiped tears for me in a hurry, then picked a piece of meat into his mouth, chewed slowly, and smiled at me, "It's really delicious. You also eat a piece..."

I shook my head and dared not tell him that I had eaten a lot at Monson's house. He ate only three pieces of meat under my strong persistence and tears, and the rest was still taken back by him to be cooked in porridge. I thought sadly that I really came from the 21st century. Also in the case of hunger to survive, I am much more selfish than him.

Our special extra meal, that day, everyone greedily smelled the light to almost tasteless meat in the porridge. While Roche was not paying attention, I put the millet in my bowl into his bowl.

No fireworks, no laughter, we got to bed early. In his arms, I still listen to the wailing outside the city into my dreams. The only difference between New Year's Eve and some time ago is that my stomach finally stopped wriggling for the first time in nearly ten days. Sigh, it's nice to have something in the stomach.
