When the Louvre meets the Forbidden City

When resting on the road, Chen Jinnan called Wei Xiaobao to him, "Xiaobao, although the top priority of our Tiandihui is to fight against the Qing Dynasty and restore the Ming Dynasty, it is also our purpose to be chivalrous and righteous. The meeting has always strictly prohibited lust, promiscuity, and bullying women and children. All the brothers can see that little girl of yours is red-eyed every day, as if she has suffered some great grievance. This is not good, the master thinks that the little girl is not bad, with high martial arts skills, honest and loyal, and the righteous sister of Wu Liuqi brothers, You have married her seriously, so that you don't behave like this every day and look bad in front of the brothers."

Wei Xiaobao disagreed, "Master, I don't want to marry her."

Chen Jinnan wondered, "Why don't you want to? You are no longer a high-ranking official in the imperial court. Don't you think she is not worthy of her status? At the very least, you can marry Miss Shuang'er as a wife. Give her a title, and she will naturally be happy. "

"Master, there can only be one wife, and I want to marry the one I love." It's not that he hasn't been unrestrained, but he still can't accept some practices that degrade women's status in this ancient oriental country.He also has a mother and sisters, and belittling a woman is like belittling his own close relatives, so he doesn't want to accept it.

Back then, even when he no longer loved Josephine, he gave his wife the honor and respect she deserved—canonizing her as Queen of the French Empire.

Before deciding to be canonized, he once said a heartfelt and very profound sentence to his brother's friend Rodrey. When he recalled that passage in his later years, he was very ashamed and felt that he was hypocritical at that time.But compared with the situation here, he felt that he could still be regarded as a person of noble character and respect for women.

"How can I send this good wife away because I have become a great man?" he once said to Rodrey. Can I get rid of her when I become stronger? No, I can't do this. I have a heart. I am not a child born by a tigress. I will marry after she dies, and I may have children .But I don't want to cause her pain now."

Afterwards, he once told Josephine himself about his decision, who was no longer loved by him, but he didn't say anything to death, and reserved his right to divorce.

During the years when he was exiled in St. Helena, he would feel very guilty whenever he thought of this past, because he still couldn't resist the temptation of a young woman and having a biological child, and abandoned the childless child. wife.

but!At least he divorced Josephine, returned her freedom, and paid her a huge annuity. Josephine could find another lover and live a luxurious life elsewhere.

"Xiaobao, Xiaobao! What are you thinking? I ask you a few words and don't answer."

Someone tapped on the shoulder, and Wei Xiaobao came back from his long memory, "Master, what are you asking me?"

Chen Jinnan shook his head, "It's nothing, as a teacher, I just asked casually, why don't you like Shuang'er, a good girl with both good looks and good looks?"

Chen Jinnan didn't want to meddle in the private matters between his disciples and other girls, but he had been running around for years to fight against the Qing Dynasty and restore the Ming Dynasty, and he had no time to care about him. He only accepted such a disciple, and ninety percent of the world will be handed over to Wei Xiaobao in the future. In his hands, if Wei Xiaobao misbehaved, his prestige would inevitably be damaged, so he had to be more concerned.

"She's too small, she doesn't have any flesh in her breasts and butt, she doesn't look like a woman, she looks like a child, so I don't like it."

Chen Jinnan frowned and shouted, "Little Treasure! How can you speak so vulgarly."

Wei Xiaobao was a little troubled by this, he also wanted to speak in a more civilized and elegant way, but he only had this kind of vulgar vocabulary in his mind, so he purposely restrained those 'fuck' that always popped out,' The civilized sayings after sifting out "turtle son", "spicy mother" and the like.

I had no choice but to admit my mistake, "I'm sorry, master, I haven't read the book, so I don't know how to say it otherwise."

It's not easy for Chen Jinnan to talk about him anymore, but he blamed himself, "Oh, it's also my fault as a master. You call me master, but I never have time to teach you well."

The topic of persuading apprentices to take a concubine is not a serious matter worth bringing up on the table, so we can only stop here. Chen Jinnan can't guarantee that she will grow up in two years because of Shuang'er's slender appearance. The buttocks and breasts have become thicker, which is in line with the apprentice's preferences.

Seeing that he didn't say anything else, Wei Xiaobao said, "Master, it's almost time to rest, let's continue on our way."

"Okay, you go and tell everyone to leave. Let's find a more stable place to live at night. Come here before you go to bed, and I'll help you heal your legs."

Wei Xiaobao went back to find Shuang'er to go with him, he saw that Shuang'er's eyes were turning red and her expression was in a daze these days, he was very worried, so he tried to go with her as much as possible.

Sure enough, seeing Shuang'er lagging far behind alone, he had to hold the horse and wait for her.

When Shuang'er caught up, he said, "Shuang'er, I know you are very unhappy these days, but please restrain yourself, don't take your own safety seriously, who knows if Master Hong has been following us all this time, you are alone What if you get caught by them?"

Shuang'er opened her red eyes, and asked pitifully, "Sister-in-law, do you know that I'm unhappy?" Thinking of Wei Xiaobao's determination not to let her call him Mr. Xiang again, he changed his words, "Wei, Master Wei Xiang, you know I'm unhappy ?”

Wei Xiaobao thought to himself, not only me, but all the Tiandihui brothers here, including my master, and Zhao Liangdong, Wang Jinbao and others all know that you are unhappy.

Persuading, "I know, but Shuang'er, I'm doing this for your own good, and you will understand in two years."

Shuang'er was aggrieved, "Master, you don't want me anymore, or is it better for me?"

Wei Xiaobao had a headache, "How many times have I told you that I don't want you, I just can't marry you, if you want to be my maid, then do it in front of me, I will pay you more, and after two years you can save a fortune." It would be nice to marry someone with a generous dowry. Look at Zhao Liangdong, he has a big beard and looks so mighty. It should be good to recruit him as a son-in-law. If you like it, I will help you talk to him."

Shuang'er was about to cry, "I, I don't know if Mr. Zhao is good or not, I only know that I belong to your husband, I am a little girl, I dare not ask my husband to marry me, you just have to let me serve you by your side all the time That's it."

Wei Xiaobao used the patience and courage to mobilize all the soldiers before the war, and tried his best to persuade him, "Shuang'er, you are still young and ignorant. I really arranged this for your own good. Although I am not a saint, I don't want to So obscene, in order to occupy you and make you my servant forever, it is immoral to violate your body and declare ownership of it! I actually don’t plan to marry another wife, but in case I I met a woman who can make me fall in love and married a wife, what should you do? Seeing your husband in name share the bed with other women every day, in close love? Don’t you feel uncomfortable. And I have you like this by my side An aboveboard existence is also unfair to my wife. Can you understand?"

Shuang'er was dumbfounded by what he said, her delicate little face was full of sluggishness, she shook her head and murmured, "I don't understand, Mr. Maid, shouldn't this be the case for maidservants? Serve Mrs. Mrs. when he is not married, and wait for Mrs. Mrs. after he marries his wife." Just serve the husband and wife together?"

Wei Xiaobao covered his forehead, sighing in his heart, this uncivilized place!Female slaves in ancient Egypt were probably treated this way.Such a good girl as Shuang'er took this for granted.

For the present Wei Xiaobao, Shuang'er is a very qualified guard, highly skilled in martial arts, 100% loyal to him, and even sacrifices himself to block swords for him in critical moments.Such a person with superb skills and loyalty should be respected regardless of whether he is a man or a woman, but this person he wants to respect is like getting into a dead end, wholeheartedly wanting to demean himself and become an inferior common room girl!

Wei Xiaobao's patience ran out, and he said loudly, "This is an insult to your own personality. You are smart, beautiful and capable. You can fight. You are good at martial arts. Why don't you learn to respect yourself!"

Shuang'er was startled by his loud voice, "Master Wei Xiangzhu, don't be angry."

Wei Xiaobao really lost his temper when he saw her, and sighed, "I'm not angry, there's nothing to be angry about, it's just that I'm really doing it for your own good, so think about it yourself." He urged the horse to chase after the person in front , turned around and shouted with a straight face, "Follow up, don't fall behind."

Shuang'er was so frightened that she couldn't care less about feeling sorry for herself, and hurriedly urged her horse to follow.

Occasionally, Wei Xiaobao lost his temper with a woman, and the effect was unexpectedly good. Shuang'er seemed to have finally listened to Wei Xiaobao's persuasion. People suspect that she was bullied by an unscrupulous master.

Wei Xiaobao was very satisfied, he valued Shuang'er's strong martial arts, and the rare loyalty in this little girl was also a precious quality.

He wanted to respect her, such a person deserves respect regardless of gender, Wei Xiaobao hoped that Shuang'er could be his captain of the guard, rather than a very statusless maid and concubine.

If she is treated like this, it will be a contempt and insult to a person who has great ability and is extremely loyal to himself.

In the evening, I went to a small town to stay. The town is very small, and there is only one very simple inn. Everyone needs to sleep in a room. Fortunately, everyone is a bold person, so I don’t care about these small inconveniences. superior.

"Wei Xiangzhu, the chief rudder asked me to ask why you still haven't come over?" Xu Tianchuan came over and asked Wei Xiaobao who was about to sleep.

Wei Xiaobao wanted to pretend to forget that his master told him to go there at night, and he was already lying down to sleep, so he had no choice but to get up again, "I'll go there right now."

Chen Jinnan asked him to go at night to help him heal his 'leg injury', and Wei Xiaobao's leg injury was purely fictional, he made it up himself.

The reason still lies in the oriental etiquette that is really unacceptable. Not only do you kowtow when you meet the emperor, but you also kowtow when you meet the master and greet the master.

Just say hello sooner or later, Wei Xiaobao can still do it, but his actual age is almost the same as Chen Jinnan, and maybe a few years older in detail, this head cannot be knocked down no matter what.

He got away with fooling around for a few days, but later he couldn't fool around anymore. The original inertial thinking of his body came into play, and he came up with a trick that was not very good for the little rascal - pretending that his leg hurts, walking and riding a horse It's all right, just can't squat and jump.

Chen Jinnan had carefully inspected his legs and knee joints several times, but found no trauma, so he suspected that Wei Xiaobao had made a mistake in his own practice, which caused the veins to be blocked, and his blood was blocked. Whenever I have free time, I call Wei Xiaobao over to give him a massage.

Wei Xiaobao was very ashamed to receive treatment every time, but even though he was ashamed, the little rascal trick really worked. When he complained that his leg hurts, Chen Jinnan immediately refused to let him kneel down.

Passing by the room where the three little girls, Shuang'er, Zeng Rou, and the little Princess Mu Jianping, lived together, through a thin wooden door with cracks, I heard murmurs of laughter inside. I don't know what the three of them said were funny. Then they vaguely heard Shuang'er's voice, Mu Jianping answered a few words, and then they giggled together again.

This time Wei Xiaobao is completely at ease, these three little girls are almost all underage children, the reason why they are willing to follow the former Wei Xiaobao is because this person is about the same age as them, lively and funny, very interesting, but he probably hasn't treated him yet What a blazing love, so it is best to be with him, and if you can't be together, you won't be heartbroken, and life will continue as usual.

It seems that his refusal did not really hurt the hearts of a few girls, which is very gratifying!

Without the emotional troubles, Wei Xiaobao is in the mood to discuss some current situational issues with his master Chen Jinnan on the road.

Wei Xiaobao thought it was discussion, Chen Jinnan thought it was teaching, he was very happy that his apprentice finally stopped being full of cunning and mischievous thoughts, and started to seriously care about the affairs of the family and the country, and took the opportunity of walking together to teach and give pointers.

Wei Xiaobao is very smart, he can see everything thoroughly with a little talk, but sometimes his insights are too unique, and he regards loyalty, righteousness and etiquette as nothing, which makes Chen Jinnan very headache.

This day he suddenly said, "Master, did I tell you that my background is very bad, and my mother is just a prostitute in Yangzhou."

Chen Jinnan felt sorry for him, and comforted him, "Xiaobao, the hero doesn't ask where he came from. As long as you work hard and achieve a great career in the future, no one will despise you because of your background."

"Master, thank you for your guidance, I will."

Wei Xiaobao looked at his master's expectant face, and held back the words that followed.

He mentioned this dishonorable background because he wanted to tell Chen Jinnan that he didn't know who his father was, and he wasn't even sure if he was a Han. After the Qing Dynasty restored the Ming Dynasty, the righteousness of expelling the Manchus was no longer righteousness for him.

As a person who is over half a century old and has rich experience in political struggle, Wei Xiaobao believes that in order to gain power, he must rely on the general public. The political ideas put forward by a politician must conform to the wishes of the general public, or at least on the surface. Only then will victory be possible.

Listening to Chen Jinnan’s explanations these days, I know that this country has been through war for a long time. In the last years of the Ming Dynasty, the world was in chaos, and the people were in a state of desperation. The uprising army was everywhere, and the Manchurians took advantage of the chaos to attack. How deep can the people of the world have for the former Ming Dynasty? Affection and loyalty?

When the world is gradually settled down, it is unrealistic to use the slogan of anti-Qing and Fuming to assist the Zheng family in Taiwan to overthrow the Manchu regime, and he does not want to participate in it.

But after thinking about it, now is not the time for political debate, and it is unrealistic to ask these people who have already established their thinking patterns to easily accept their own views.

After getting along these days, the character and demeanor of his master Chen Jinnan made him very respectful. Although he could not accept all the traditional oriental etiquette and morality and unconditional loyalty to the emperor and patriotism, this set of ideas has a long history and is self-contained. The norms of conduct passed down from generation to generation are also respectable.

Quotations from Napoleon: All political parties should be despised and only the masses in mind.Only by relying on the support of the general public can a great cause be established.

The author has something to say: Nathan’s remarks in this article come from some biographies of Napoleon. The author is a French historian and an expert on Napoleon.It is said that all Lassler's remarks in his biography are well-founded, and the evidence is as solid as a mountain.I choose to trust the reliability of his work, given the depth and reason with which his descriptions and analysis of Napoleon are written.
