(32) The ancestors suppressed people

The stars and moon are without traces, and have been shining for thousands of years, without leaving any trace in the sky. No matter how deep the night is or how thick the clouds are, they cannot always cover the twinkling starlight and the alternating white moonlight of the phases.

Ling Yu took care of the sixteen people. Within two days, he took three cities in a row. The guardian of the fourth city found that Ling Yu looked strange. It was too late. In two days, four cities in the land of Nobara were quickly captured. Even Ling Yu had to admire the speed of the Chinese army's marching and thunder methods, because Ling Yu had to spread the matter outside. In this era when information was relatively late, it would take three or four days. Only during this period, Ling Yu's identity in the Northern Qin had a useful value.

Looking at the moon outside the window, Lingyu recalled the past over the years. Since Lingyu became sensible, the Ling family has been in a suppressed position in the Northern Qin Dynasty. He has practiced martial arts since he was a child. The only one in his family who taught himself martial arts was his father who had always been in poor health. After many months, the long-sick father taught himself every move and every move year after year. All he hoped was that he could fight for the past glory of the Ling family in the Northern Qin Dynasty and avenge the nine men who died tragically on the battlefield of the Ling family.

But now, just because of the consequences of his mistaken belief in his former brothers, Ling Yu can imagine how Lan Xiner, who was in the capital, would treat his wife, children and children at home when she learned about Ling Yu’s rebellion. It is natural to confiscate the family and exterminate the clan.

"What are you thinking? Brother Ling!" Quan Dayou's voice appeared in the room. The door was not closed. Quan Dayou walked in directly, with a very unscrupulous smile on his face, as if there was a huge happy event. However, it was true that the war was going well and captured the land of this state. When he successfully stood firm in Bei Qin, he would have to go forward and retreat in the future. If he retreated, he would attack Bei Qin and attack the army of Bianzhou, and if he advanced, he would attack other cities in Bei Qin. It was no wonder that Quan Dayou smiled all day long.

Ling Yu smiled bitterly and said, "What can I think? Brother Quan can tell Ling now, can Ling take action freely now?"

"Of course, I'll tell Brother Ling that Brother Ling can come and go freely now, and no one will stop Brother Ling anymore." Quan Dayou said.

Ling Yu's lips once again smiled bitterly, but he was not in a hurry to leave. Instead, he asked: "Brother Quan, Ling has a question, I want to ask, how is my Ling family now?"

Quan Dayou sat down at the table, poured himself a cup of tea, and drank it leisurely before saying, "Brother Ling is now regaining his freedom. Wouldn't he go out to inquire or go back in person? At this time, no one would think that Brother Ling is likely to return to the capital of Beiqin alone!"

"Hmph!" Ling Yu was angry and stepped out of the door. Sure enough, no one came to stop him again. He looked back at Quan Dayou, who was sitting in the room drinking tea alone, and moved forward again.

It’s a pity that he was destined to be unable to leave, and a voice stopped his steps.

"Yu'er!"

The voice was very familiar. Ling Yu turned his head and looked at the corridor on the left. An old man with gray hair was walking towards him. He was not someone else, but Ling Chuang.

"Dad!" Ling Yu's voice was full of surprise. He looked back and saw Quan Dayou nodding to him with a smile and leaving alone.

"Yu'er, you..." Ling Chuang's eyes flashed with kindness and excitement, and he walked towards Ling Yu with his footsteps. His lonely figure trembled, and seemed very sad under the moonlight. Ling Yu walked forward and asked, "Dad, you... how could you be here?"

"Beast!" Ling Yu just held Ling Chuang and Ling Chuang slapped loudly on the face.

Ling Yu did not dare to resist, but just lowered his head and supported the old man who was trembling with anger. Ling Chuang slapped Ling Yu and said angrily: "Beast, you...you...you actually rebel...I...our Ling family has been destroyed by you for decades...the loyalty and righteousness for decades have been destroyed by you, do you know?"

Ling Yu did not even defend himself, and silently endured the old man's anger. The old man continued, "Kneel down!"

Lingyu knelt down honestly.

"You said, tell me why you rebel? How did I teach you normally? Although the first lord is ashamed of my Ling family, my Ling family has been passed down through loyalty and righteousness for decades. You said, why did you rebel? Say!" Ling Chuang trembled with his hands and suddenly coughed a few times. Ling Yu wanted to get up and support him, but he shouted back again: "Kneel down!"

"Boy, I didn't rebel!" Ling Yu said calmly.

"No rebellion? Then you..." Ling Chuang originally wanted to say why Ling Yu was in the Chinese army, but he was born in a military and was once a famous general. He immediately figured out the key. Tears in his eyes finally fell down. He excitedly helped Ling Yu up and said, "Child... Yes, did they hold you hostage?"

Lingyu nodded, Ling Chuang understood the key after thinking for a moment, took a deep breath and sighed: "You... your righteous brother is so cruel... I am so disloyal to my Ling family..."

"Slowly! General Ling's words were wrong!" Quan Dayou suddenly appeared in the courtyard again and walked towards Ling Chuang and the others step by step.

"Hmph, the defeated general dare not be taught by all generals!" Ling Chuang turned his head and said.

Quan Dayou ignored it and just said to himself: "Don't say that the Ling family was framed by our army and was named rebellion. Even if General Ling really rebelled, there is no reason for disloyalty."

Ling Chuang and Ling Yu didn't say anything, Quan Dayou continued: "The Northern Qin Dynasty was conquered by the Ling family for the Northern Qin royal family, and should be ruled by the Northern Qin royal family. But now, does General Ling understand? Lan Xiner, the first beauty from Tatar, controlled the Northern Qin government for more than ten years and has maintained friendly ally relations with the Tatars. Is this still the Northern Qin royal family?"

Quan Dayou paused and took two steps in the courtyard. He clearly saw Ling Chuang listening intently. Quan Dayou's lips curled a trace of joy, saying that the emperor's remarks were really sharp and he easily adjusted all the unwillingness in Ling Chuang's heart.

"At that time, General Ling defeated the Tatars in Beigukou, and later even sent his troops to enter the Huns. His momentum was so grand. However, the Northern Qin royal family forgot the efforts of the Ling family over the years because of a woman's marriage, and forgot the deep blood hatred between the Ling family and the aliens. How could the ancestors of the Ling family be in the nine springs? When the Later Zhou Dynasty was destroyed, the world was divided into four parts, and the Ling family established a territory for the Northern Qin royal family. It is not an exaggeration to say that the Ling family and the Northern Qin royal family are brothers. The first thing for Lan Xiner was that the Northern Qin emperor sold his brothers to have fun, so how could he have righteousness? So he was the first to be righteous to the Ling family first."

"Stop it! How could the first lord be..." Ling Chuang shouted. Although he didn't want to agree, as a party to the Ling family, he had to admit the fact that Quan Dayou said.

But before he could yell, Quan Dayou suddenly raised his voice and shouted in a higher voice: "You should stop, General Ling, if the emperor had not cared about brotherhood, General Ling had been taken as a hostage by Lan Xiner. Lan Xiner was the disaster left by your first lord of Northern Qin to the Northern Qin. It is the ironclad evidence that he was sorry to the Ling family. What qualifications do you have to protect your first lord of Northern Qin! Listen to the last general, my emperor is also the ruler of most of the Central Plains, and he has enough qualifications to say to you Ling family and any of the Northern Qin people!"

Quan Dayou's anger is not fake. He really doesn't understand why Bai Yunqi wants to change the idea of ​​a foolish and loyal man like Ling Chuang. Ling Chuang is useless as a dying sick old man. Even Ling Yu, China has enough talent to compete with him. He is not more than him, and he is less than him, and he is not less, and he is not even less, and he is not optional.

Quan Dayou's words shocked the father and son of the Ling family. Ling Chuang opened his eyes and looked at Quan Dayou, who was also full of anger, but stopped talking. Quan Dayou continued: "The emperor's words must be transferred to the general. Whether you accept them or not, it is not the matter of the general. After hearing the general's words, if you want to leave and stay, you will follow your wishes. If anyone in China dares to make trouble, he will be killed without mercy. Humph, the only one in China who can receive such treatment will be your Ling family!"

Ling Yu finally spoke. In fact, after capturing the city several times, Ling Yu had already vaguely admitted in his heart that Quan Dayou had said that Lan Xiner might sell the Northern Qin to the Tatars at any time. This is almost indisputable.

"The defeated general dares not speak out. Brother Quan, please tell me, just listen quietly, I will offend him too much, please forgive me!" Ling Yu spoke, helped Ling Zhuan's body, which meant to calm Ling Zhuan. The two of them were now defeated generals under the scheme of others, and they were useless to show off their verbal benefits. Of course, Ling Yu was actually very uneasy and confused.

Quan Da nodded and continued, "Under a country, the people are the heaven, and the king is the least. The king of a country should make the people stable, prosper and prosper in the world, not suffer from war, not suffer from hardships in life, not suffer from natural disasters, not suffer from natural disasters, and the first lord of the Northern Qin Dynasty failed the loyal and martyrs of the Ling family first, and treasoned the country and foreigners later. Second brother, Bai Qi had contact with the Tatars at that time, and the Tatars were Derile, the close guard of the Jin king Nalan, who was in the future. He once said a word in front of Bai Qi, which made Bai Qi deeply feel that foreign tribes must surrender, eliminate the national disputes, and let future descendants no longer suffer from these meaningless disputes."

"He said that these people in the Central Plains have a cheap life as a dog, what does it matter if they kill a few people in the Central Plains? From this we can see that the education received by the Tatars since childhood is enough to make them enemies with our Central Plains for generations. Lan Xiner was a Tatar. It was a big mistake for the Northern Qin Emperor to favor Lan Xiner during his lifetime. He was betrayed the people of Northern Qin, and all the Han people, and the hundreds of thousands of soldiers of Northern Qin. The officials of the court were all assisted by Lan Xiner later. Later, Lan Xiner was able to rule the country from behind, and the name was called as a supplementary government, but in fact it was stealing the country."

"The second brother is a smart man. He should understand what Bai Qi refers to, and will be headed by Zhong. The Ling family has been loyal to the Northern Qin royal family for generations. Bai Qi did not expect that the second brother would turn against each other and drove Lan Xiner back to the Tatars. He only hoped that the second brother could understand that if he continued to assist the Northern Qin, at a specific time, Lan Xiner would hand over the power of a country to the Later Jin. Only then would he really be sorry for the ancestors of the Northern Qin royal family. Should the Ling family be loyal to the foolish and beautiful Northern Qin emperors, or to the Northern Qin emperors and all the Han people of Northern Qin, choose by the Ling family. Bai Qiyan will do this. If the second brother is willing to help Bai Qi unify the Central Plains, and then imitate the Emperor Ling of the time, and then lead the army to the grassland, destroy the Huns, and subdue the Later Jin, he can work together with all the generals. Otherwise, the Ling family will be responsible for their own responsibility, and Bai Qi will not be left behind! Second brother think about it carefully!"

Quan Dayou finished Bai Yunqi's words in one breath, and paused. Seeing that the father and son of the Ling family were still in deep thought, he said, "This is the original words of my emperor. If you don't know, please read this letter yourself! Quan didn't say much, hum, you are ungrateful!"

Quan Dayou handed a letter to Lingyu, turned around and left angrily, leaving only the Ling family father and son who were pondering on the scene.

The stars and moon are traceless, and the white moonlight falls on every inch of land on the earth, and also on the body of the father and son of the Ling family, moving little by little, and the night passes quietly.

The room was very quiet, and Ling Chuang sighed long: "I'm old, old! This world belongs to young people. Bai Yunqi is really a wake-up call, haha! I, Ling Chuang for so many years, is not as good as a young boy!"

A man muttered to himself. The autumn wind blew into the house, causing a cool breeze, but could not blow into Ling Chuang's thick clothes. Ling Chuang suddenly knelt down in front of the window and murmured to the crescent moon outside the window: "The ancestors of the Northern Qin family have been here for generations. I, Ling Chuang, in order to make up for the mistakes of the previous Northern Qin lord, must swing a knife to Northern Qin and serve China. I hope all the spirits in the sky will bless our Northern Qin people, and enjoy happiness forever after this disaster!"

Word by word, decisive, no matter how much you say to a foolish loyal person, it is useless. The only way is to show something more status than the loyal person in his heart. For example, a person will be loyal to his boss, but may not be loyal to his boss's son very loyal. In the feudal era, those who are more appealing than the king of a country were the heroes who were wronged, but those who call on the lower class and ordinary military and civilians. If you want to call on loyal old court officials, you have to show those who are dead and have higher seniority than the king of a country.

This is like the huge Later Wei, because Li Chengfeng did it too obvious, which aroused suspicion among the government and the public. Coupled with the deliberate spread of rumors by those who are interested, this point alone can make the Later Wei bloody. Bai Yunqi seized this point to convince Ling Chuang. Of course, if Ling Chuang left with Ling Yu, Bai Yunqi could only watch Ling Chuang, a foolish and loyal general, ruining his Ling family's reputation and life for decades, and finally leaving a sighing title page in history.
