But after He Rong asked this question, the guard affirmed, "Of course it's possible. Isn't there a saying in Yongdi that he who wins the hearts of the people wins the world? We can recruit them all the way."
As the guard's words fell, the refugees who had just been rescued over there came towards He Rong one by one.
When they came to He Rong, the leader of the refugees knelt down first and said, "Your Highness, please forgive us for our neglect and disrespect just now! Thank you for saving us from danger just now!"
After saying this, the leader of the refugees only kowtowed heavily, and when the others saw the leader kowtow, they knelt down and kowtowed together, and they only sincerely thanked He Rong for saving them in such a critical situation just now. .
He Rong didn't speak, he just gave the guard a meaningful look.
The guard touched his nose with some guilt.
He Rong just said with a cold face, "You don't have to thank me. When I save you, I'm also saving myself. It's just a matter of convenience."
Hearing He Rong's words, the refugee leader immediately stood up and said, "Your Highness, how could you say that? If it weren't for you, we would have died just now!"
"Your Highness, we all know that you love the people like your son. Now the town of Sara is in chaos. Our relatives are also being slaughtered. Apart from us, other places are also in melee. We beg you, please Just help us!" Unexpectedly, the refugee leader immediately added another sentence.
Looking at the other party, He Rong didn't know what he thought of. He closed his eyes slightly, and then said in a calm voice, "I can't help you. I also returned defeated. Now I only have so many people under my command, and my father is dead. I'm afraid my brothers won't admit it." My identity.”
As if thinking of the past, he had never been resigned to his fate. He was unwilling to admit that he could only be a slave, so he fought. But now after struggling for so long, he had to admit that all his struggles were in vain. That’s all.
It was only at this moment that he understood the meaning of this sentence: There is a time in life, but there is no time in life. Don't force it. .
Looking at half of his life, and now he felt extremely depressed.
He finally decided to leave his life to fate.
However, when he stated this calmly, the refugee leader did not give up. He just continued to persuade He Rong, "Your Highness, the situation is chaotic now. We all need your help. You should know that here, we People who are mixed with the blood of other ethnic groups are the targets of attack every time. To be offensive, you also have black hair and black eyes, so you should be able to understand our situation here."
"We have no other wishes, we just want to live in harmony with the people who live here. There are indeed some Yongdi people among us, but we never came here on our own initiative. Many of them were forced to come to this land. , and people who can’t go back.”
"And there are many, many more people like us."
"Your Highness, I beg you to save us! If you have no soldiers, we are willing to send them for you. We are willing to be your soldiers. As long as we can gain peace and gain the same status as other people in this land, we are willing to do anything. Do it!" The refugee leader only continued to plead.
He Rong, who originally had no intention of paying attention to this group of refugees, was obviously touched in his heart after hearing the leader's words.
Then he only opened his eyes and looked at the group of refugees. Seeing that their hair color was the same as his own, He Rong began to feel faintly touched in his heart.
Although he and these refugees were different in terms of identity and other aspects, at this moment he still felt that he and they were actually a group sharing the same fate and breathing together.
At this moment, he felt a force spurting out of his heart that wanted to break through some restriction.
At a certain moment, he seemed to suddenly understand the reason why he had been planning for so long but failed.
He wanted to prove that he also wanted to change his situation. However, in an environment that treated people like them differently, his efforts alone would inevitably be much harder than those of others.
Moreover, people's prejudices are difficult to eliminate. From the top-down prejudices, he wanted his father to change his view of him. In fact, there were only two choices.
one
The choice is to reincarnate yourself, reincarnate, and pray that you will be born as a pure blood next time.
However, this idea is obviously unrealistic.
Another option is to prove yourself to others.
He always chose the second path, but unfortunately he went in the wrong direction. He still had expectations for his father.
He thought that as long as he could prove his excellence and prove that he could do everything well, his father would look at him differently.
But what he didn't know was that maybe even if he returned in triumph, he would never be the one his father wanted to support.
And all this is just because he has black hair and black eyes.
Just like the previous heir designated by his father said, even if he removed him, he would not be recognized by his father.
After all, prejudice can never be eliminated, but force can silence people.
And what he has to do is never to pull out the thorns on his body and prove that he is a gentle sheep.
What he wants to do may always be to be strong. Only he is stronger than his father. At that time, whether his father is willing to admit it or not, he must admit that he is the orthodox one.
What he had done before was always overestimating himself, but underestimating this group of refugees like himself. Even because he lived in such an environment, he even hated his own mother, but he who hated his mother, in essence Isn't it just that he hates himself?
But since he can defeat the heir designated by his father.
Why can't these people?
Those pure-blooded people would question themselves no matter what because of their bloodline. It was tantamount to wishful thinking for him to find identity among them.
And it turns out that what he has to face is never a single person, but an entire group.
His strength alone will naturally appear weak at this time.
But if he also has a group with which he is recognized, he also has a group with which he can unite.
Will it be relatively easy for him to deal with other people then?
Thinking of this, He Rong finally felt as if he had found the right path.
Sweeping away the self-pity he had just felt, he finally slowly opened his eyes. At this time, he didn't know whether it was the change in his mood that made him feel suddenly enlightened, or whether it was the weather that had changed. He only felt that it was gray and gray in the cold weather. There seemed to be a glimmer of light in the sky.
"You are right. I am willing to lead you to get the same treatment as other people of Qiangmo, but I am not fighting for you! I am fighting for myself! You must also understand that you are not fighting for me. ! But fight for yourself! When only force can make people surrender, we must unite with a firm attitude. Only in this way can we change the state of letting people be eaten!" He Rongzhi suddenly stood up and said.
When He Rong spoke, the light and flame seemed to be rekindled in his eyes. Others seemed to see hope in his eyes. Infected by this hope, they shouted slogans of victory.
Snowflakes have fallen from the sky again at some point, but people who have seen a way out and hope are no longer depressed by the cold weather.
The civil strife in Koso has just begun, but the war in Yongdi has already ended.
Guanyuan Town quickly returned to its former tranquility.
After the war ended, the person who expressed his merit naturally told the superiors that the Third Highness Zhao Yanzhen was still alive.
And not only is he still alive, but he is now able to break through and discover Qiang Mo's purpose, all because of his existence. Therefore, as the chief contributor, he will return to the capital soon.
But before that, he decided to deal with a small matter first.
"Girl Huan, that's all I'm saying, you have to get married today even if you don't want to! Think about it, Mr. Mo is one of the richest men in the city. If you get married, they can still afford you food and clothing! "In front of a dilapidated small earthen house, a woman was tirelessly persuading Song Huan to put on a red wedding dress.
However, Song Huan looked at the red wedding dress and said resolutely, "Mom! I won't marry! My life was saved by Uncle Lu and Xing Yan! Now Uncle Lu is gone! I must keep a hope for them!" I want to change my surname! You clearly agreed when you got my silver reward! Why do you now
Regret, why did you plan to marry me to someone else on your own initiative! What's the difference between you doing this and those people who sold me to the Qiang Desert? "
"What hope? How can you keep it? Besides, you were born by me. It is natural for children to honor their parents. What's wrong with me spending two of your money?"
"It is said that parents make the decision on children's marriage. It is a natural decision. If you don't care about it yourself, why can't you allow your parents to make the decision for you?" After hearing Song Huan's words, the middle-aged woman immediately retorted.
Song Huan, however, turned away and said, "I won't marry! Anyway, marry whoever you want!"
"You rebelled! Do you think you can take charge? You have to get married even if you don't want to marry today! Master Mo thinks highly of you by marrying you for a second marriage!" After hearing Song Huan's words, those who were originally waiting at the door My father and brothers also lost their temper for a moment! Among them, the father was directly trying to pull Song Huan away.
Song Huan naturally refused to give in, so she just hugged the bedpost and shouted loudly, "Someone! Help!"
Seeing that things had reached this point, the father then only said to the young man who was still standing aside, "Why don't you tie her up quickly! You don't want to marry a wife!"
After hearing this, the young man finally no longer hesitated.
And with his joining, the scene immediately tilted in their direction.
After all, Song Huan was not as strong as the two of them. Although she struggled repeatedly, she was still tied up soon after.
