Chapter 452: The Traitor: Bright Moon, Drinking Alone in the Autumn
Before meeting Tang Ran, Li Jinyu thought she would have a lot to say, but the moment she really saw the person, she just stood there quietly in silence.
"Three princesses."
Tang Ran still looked neither humble nor arrogant, but Li Jinyu knew that he was very bold. Putting aside other charges, the fact that he broke into the harem at night was enough to cost him his head.
She really wanted to ask him if he felt a sense of accomplishment watching her act like a fool.
Li Jinyu sighed inwardly: "Tang Ran, I want to go to marry."
"You know everything?" Tang Ran frowned slightly, lifted her skirt, sat down, and tilted her head to look at Li Jinyu.
"Because the love and hate given to me are not pure enough, I am in pain. I am just like this, self-righteous and stubborn. Once I make up my mind about something, I will not turn back even if I hit a wall. Even if Chen Country is a den of dragons and tigers, I will go and try my luck."
Li Jinyu said in a self-deprecating tone, looking at the Prime Minister, and said, "Tang Ran, to be honest, before I came here today, I had prepared many questions to ask you, but now I realize that none of them are interesting. I know you are ashamed to exchange women for peace, and I look down on you as well."
"If we really want to exchange women for peace, what do we need those generals for? But the situation is different now. We are not bullying the weak, but just a strategy."
"Let alone me, I believe that even if any woman in Northern Qi knew about this, she would definitely be willing to sacrifice her life for her country, not to mention that I am a princess.
I also want to tell the world that women can carry the entire country on their shoulders. The patriotism in women's hearts is no less than that of men. If most of us were not trapped in the backyard and did not receive a good education, we could all be heroines. "
At this moment, Li Jinyu was truly reborn.
In the past, she also mocked those dynasties in history that used princesses to marry off princesses, thinking that only by practicing martial arts and killing enemies like men, and serving the country like men, could one feel fulfilled and live a glorious life.
But now she realized that she was too narrow-minded before.
Regardless of whether they can fight in battle or not, does that mean we should deny the contributions women make in all aspects of society?
Do I really have to be like a man? Only then can I feel that I am unique and that I have contributed to the country.
Those women who grow mulberry trees day and night, those women who can manage those trivial matters in an orderly manner, and those women who support a family after their husbands' death should also be admired. They formed families and added to the population taxes and other expenses of the Northern Qi Dynasty.
As for why do we envy those men? Envy that they can fight in battle? Subconsciously ignoring the other contributions made by women.
Even Li Jinyu, a princess, cannot do whatever she wants, let alone ordinary people.
She doesn't really think that women are inferior to men, nor does she really think that men are better than women.
It’s just that this world provides too many opportunities for men, but very few for women.
They demand this and that from women, unknowingly reducing women's sense of existence.
Even if there are some capable women, in the records or when passed down by word of mouth among the people, this woman would be portrayed as a man, which directly obscures the brilliance of women.
The sky darkens quickly in the cold winter. The bleak and cool sunset has just set over the hill, and the sky immediately turned gray.
When the cold wind blew, Li Jinyu's body, which had been suffering from major and minor illnesses over the years, trembled. She didn't care whether it was against the rules or not, and rubbed her hands together to try to block the bone-chilling cold.
"Tang Ran, do you have anything to say to me?"
The cold wind fell into Tang Ran's lonely eyes as he looked at the pale and thin girl in front of him.
Tang Ran's eyes fell on the sparse snow falling in the sky, and all his words turned into a helpless sigh.
"It's snowing, Third Princess."
He chuckled and said, "Even if Tang Ran is crushed to pieces and left in infamy for eternity, he will definitely protect the people of Northern Qi and bring them a bright and sunny day. He will never surrender without a fight or sell out his country for fame and fortune."
Li Jinyu smiled at him, then turned and left. When she reached the yard, she turned around and waved at Tang Ran, "Tang Ran, I will definitely protect myself when the war starts, and wait for the noble Northern Qi soldiers to take me back."
The snow was behind her and fell on her hair. She had a fair complexion, white teeth and beautiful eyebrows, and her smile made the whole world lose some of its color.
"Tang Ran, I'm waiting for you to pick me up."
Li Jinyu walked out quickly and asked Sang'er who was waiting outside to hold an umbrella for her.
"Sang'er, you and Lin Zun have known each other for decades, and you grew up together in the same village. You are childhood sweethearts. I have observed that he is indeed a kind person and treats you sincerely."
Upon hearing this, Sang'er didn't even bother to hold an umbrella for her, and fell to his knees and kowtowed.
Just by listening to the bang, you can tell how powerful the force was. I guess the knees are red.
"Princess, I will only follow you."
Li Jinyu looked at Sang'er who was crying loudly and reached out to help her up, but Sang'er was very stubborn and refused to get up. She knelt on the cold ground and looked at Li Jinyu anxiously: "The princess is going to Chen Kingdom now. I don't know what she will encounter. I am willing to follow the princess until death. How can I abandon the princess at this time? If the princess really insists on not leaving me, I will have no choice but to die."
"Silly girl, you keep dying all the time. We all have to live well."
Li Jinyu said softly, "We had already planned it last year. This year, we would marry you and your sweetheart. I know you have always wanted to marry him, but I was not feeling well, so I couldn't bear to leave."
"Sang'er, I don't know when I can come back. You and your sweetheart may never be together again."
"In my heart, you are different from others. I am truly concerned about you. Even if I am lucky enough to come back alive in the future, I will be burdened with countless slander and infamy, and you will also be implicated."
Sang'er cried so hard that he was out of breath, and his hands tightly grasped Li Jinyu's clothes, fearing that if he loosened his grip even a little, Li Jinyu would no longer want him.
She cried, "What's so important about that? I just want to be with the princess."
"As for him, we are not destined to be together. Although I like him, the princess is the most important person in my heart. When you saved me from that crazy nanny, I have lived my whole life only for you."
Li Jinyu glared at her angrily: "Logically speaking, I am the master and you are the servant. I should be happy when you say this, but Sang'er, I don't want you to live for me. I want you to live for yourself."
"You have to think carefully. Even if Lin Zun is willing to wait for you, his family will force him to marry and have children. When you come back, even if you two still have feelings for each other, you will definitely become a concubine."
Li Jinyu didn't want Sang'er to get married, but to focus on men.
However, her journey would be extremely dangerous. If the Emperor of Chen Kingdom was really willing to take care of her for the sake of his mother, others would not dare to openly embarrass her as a princess who was married to a foreign country, and would definitely take action against the people around her.
Li Jinyu has also become accustomed to Sang'er's existence, and she is reluctant to let her go, but she hopes that Sang'er can live happily and marry the person she loves.
She could no longer be happy, so she hoped that Sonny could be happy for her.
