When this figure walked in, everyone was stunned.
It's not because of how beautiful she is, although she is indeed very beautiful, and her appearance is top-notch anywhere, but because of the clothes she wears.
They had only seen such gorgeous clothes in one place, and that was a shopping mall. Although Qing Ling and the others had never entered it, many young ladies who were now rich in the brothel had bought it.
And what they bought was not the top one, but it was already extremely gorgeous, and this kind of gorgeousness was not that kind of luxury, but technical gorgeousness. Compared with this dress, the people present could tell at a glance that its seemingly low-key appearance represented the most advanced technology, whether it was a weaver, an embroiderer, or the latest textile technology of the Tang Dynasty. All are latest.
And such people are definitely the top group in Datang.
There were no gorgeous decorations on her head, just a simple ponytail with a hairpin.
"This is Her Royal Highness Princess Changle." A maid behind the woman said.
The maid's words stunned everyone for a moment, and then they were all startled and hurriedly bent down to salute.
"I have met His Highness Changle."
"No etiquette." Changle waved his hand gently, indicating that they were all exempt from etiquette. After these women all stood up, Changle gave them a serious etiquette. This etiquette was not a common etiquette for women in the Tang Dynasty. Standard etiquette in very formal situations.
"Your Highness." Qing Ling and the others were startled.
"Everyone, I am here today to apologize to you on behalf of the Tang Dynasty." Chang Le raised his head and said seriously.
"This... Your Highness can't do this." Qingling and the others were a little at a loss. Maybe they were once naive and ignorant of the world, but after so many years, their edges have been smoothed by life.
What's more, even when he was young and vigorous, he never dared to be too generous to these noble groups, not to mention that the person in front of him was the princess of the Tang Dynasty, and she was also the eldest princess!
"We, we are all ruined flowers and willows, and we should not be treated like this by His Highness." The oldest woman among them, a woman in her sixties, said softly.
"No, I came here today to do three things. The first one is to apologize to you on behalf of the Tang Dynasty court, because a large part of what you are experiencing now or what you have experienced in the past is the fault of the imperial court." Changle He spoke softly.
"But...but Your Highness, this year is only the twenty-fifth year of the Tang Dynasty." The older man still spoke.
The twenty-five years of the Tang Dynasty meant that the Tang Dynasty had only been established for twenty-five years. Of course Changle knew what they meant. According to their ages, when the youngest among them became Goulan women, it was estimated that the Tang Dynasty had just been established, and when they were sold into Goulan, they were still former Sui Dynasties.
In other words, to a certain extent, their situation has little to do with Datang.
"No, since the Tang Dynasty succeeded the former Sui Dynasty, as a responsible court, it should take over everything from the previous dynasty, whether it is good or bad, these are the responsibility of the Tang Dynasty. Because so many of the Tang Dynasty The people of the Tang Dynasty chose the Tang Dynasty and chose to become the people of the Tang Dynasty, so the Tang Dynasty should bear a responsibility to them."
"Whether this responsibility comes from the previous dynasty or not, it is the responsibility of the Tang Dynasty."
"And now, on behalf of my father and my third brother, I would like to say to you that the Tang Dynasty is late." Changle spoke softly but firmly.
Just such a sentence made everyone who was already numb become a little unable to hold back.
Because all of them here, no matter what they look like now, they all had a wonderful childhood when they were young. No matter whether that childhood was poor or rich, it was the deepest, most perfect and final thing in their hearts that no one could touch. gentle.
After that darkness came, they began to imagine that someone could save them, then gradually became disappointed and numb, and finally buried everything deep in their hearts, and then changed to another face.
He wandered among men and exchanged his body for countless copper coins for this brothel. They spread their legs to cater to everyone, but no one ever asked them, no one ever thought about how they got through that dark period.
Although they can no longer survive, and although they are all accommodated here, if they had a choice, their first choice would probably be to destroy this place and let the flames devour everything here.
And Changle's words "It's too late" are like suddenly revealing the deepest secret space hidden in everyone's heart, hiding all their last tenderness.
I don't know who couldn't hold it back and just sobbed. Qing Ling's own tears didn't hold back either. They surged out like a flood that burst a dam. She subconsciously reached out to wipe the tears from the corners of her eyes, but there were more and more tears.
Changle's eyes also started to turn red, but she forced herself to hold back because she felt she couldn't cry. Because she feels that women can also be strong.
Before seeing these people in person, it was hard for Changle to imagine that the women in front of him with old faces, gray hair, stooped bodies, and some whose knuckles had begun to deform after working for a long time, would once be like those in the Everlasting City of the Tang Dynasty every night. The extremely dazzling women dancing in front of the bars of various brothels.
Although their emotions break down quickly, they also recover quickly. The suffering of life and the growth of age have made them see countless life situations.
So their hearts may be stronger than anyone else now.
"Sisters, I'm here today because I need your help." Chang Le said seriously.
The word "sister" made everyone present feel an indescribable feeling, because the person who said these two words was the eldest princess of the Tang Dynasty, Her Royal Highness Princess Changle of the Tang Dynasty.
"Your Highness, you said that as long as I can do it, I am willing to share your worries for Your Highness even if I risk my life." Qing Ling said with a firm face. She only spoke about me, she didn't make this decision for anyone else.
"Your Highness and I."
"And I."
Everyone present responded.
"Not for me, but for my third brother." Changle shook his head slightly and said, "Because this policy was proposed by my third brother and is ready to be established and reformed."
Everyone was silent. His Highness King Qin and the others all knew that some of these people had even had the honor of meeting His Highness King Qin. His Highness did not have any disgust when he saw them, and even spoke calmly to them.
In fact, they had also speculated in their minds that His Highness Changle was able to come here, most likely because of His Highness King Qin.
