Shen Zhaozhao immediately stood up, walked around the small table, and walked out with Cao Ya.
Zhan Nanxing was left behind like this. She watched as her father walked away without even looking back. She pursed her lips and let out a breath.
It seems that she is not very tired.
He left so quickly just because someone greeted him!
Zhan Nanxing scooped up the wine that Shen Zhaozhao had not finished drinking, tilted his head back, and drank it in one gulp.
frown.
This wine——
Bitter! Sour! Astringent!
Shen Zhaozhao took Cao Ya out of the flower hall, turned around the wind and rain corridor, and found a quiet place where they could see the surroundings clearly to talk.
"What's going on with you?" Shen Zhaozhao knew that Cao Ya was one of them through and through, so he didn't take it back.
Cao Ya chuckled, shook his head, leaned against the pillar, and looked up at the moon in the sky.
"I am Princess Yongning, but that was in my previous life."
As for her past life story, Shen Zhaozhao and the others knew it very well, so she didn't say much.
"I know," Shen Zhaozhao crossed her arms and looked at Cao Ya. She always felt that she could see an extraordinary sense of vicissitudes from this young girl's tender face. "You also had a previous life, just like us, you are a thousand years later."
Cao Ya nodded and was about to speak, but Shen Zhaozhao raised her hand to signal her to be silent.
I raised my eyes and looked towards the other end of the corridor.
A figure was looking around, saw them here, and ran over at a trot.
The sturdy figure was none other than Guan Le.
"Brother Cao, you are awesome!" Guan Yele came over with a smell of alcohol, which changed the atmosphere here, and he bumped Cao Ya with his elbow.
Cao Ya's small body was almost knocked under the corridor by him.
"I didn't mean to hide it from you all," Cao Ya held on to the pillar to steady himself, looked at Shen Zhaozhao and Guan Xiaole, hesitated for a while, and then spoke, "There are some differences between me and you all."
Shen Zhaozhao frowned.
Guan Le scratched his head in confusion, "We are all human, what's the difference?"
Cao Ya took out a slightly yellowed book from his arms, stroked it lovingly with his hands, and handed it to Shen Zhaozhao.
Shen Zhaozhao took it and took a look, his heart skipped a beat.
On the yellowed cover, there was a large word printed which had faded a little due to age:
Democracy
The cover and sides of this book were stained with dark brown liquid.
It's blood.
Shen Zhaozhao opened the book, and this time, he was even more shocked. The book used a vertical version to refresh the chat history in the group in real time!
"What the hell?" Guan Xiaole opened the cover and took a quick look. "Wow, populism. I only saw this word in a history book in my previous life."
Shen Zhaozhao closed the book and returned it to Cao Ya.
Cao Ya stroked the cover lovingly. "At the beginning, I took this book to participate in a progressive student rally to protest against the refusal to sign the Treaty of Versailles, and was arrested by the Beiyang government. I was seriously injured at the time and died in prison."
"I opened my eyes and came here, becoming a princess of the former dynasty."
Cao Ya said with a wry smile.
Guan Le opened his mouth so wide that he could hardly close it. He turned his head and looked at Shen Zhaozhao in disbelief, "Sixth sister, you didn't travel back from the Republic of China period, did you?"
Shen Zhaozhao rolled his eyes at him, "I am the Qing Dynasty."
Guan Le was startled at first, then realized that Shen Zhaozhao was teasing him.
Which Qing Dynasty woman was holding a shotgun and shooting everywhere!
"I knew long ago that you and I were not from the same generation, so I never dared to write in the book. But that time before, I couldn't help it. I thought it was so interesting, so I wrote a sentence."
Shen Zhaozhao remembered.
That sarcastic sentence: "Haha, interesting."
In their time, haha was not a good way to laugh, but since Cao Ya was from the Republic of China, there was no malice in that haha.
Shen Zhaozhao forgave her.
"That..." Cao Ya hesitated, as if he wanted to say something but didn't dare to speak it out loud.
"Just say whatever you want to say. We are all here together and we are all family." Guan Le waved his hand.
“Has democracy been realized?”
Cao Ya asked, holding the book with his fingers turning white due to nervousness, and looking at Shen Zhaozhao and Guan Le with burning eyes.
"If it is realized, you can directly copy the experience here, so that the people will no longer have to endure feudal exploitation."
"I just read it superficially and don't understand much."
“I feel like you should know better.”
Shen Zhaozhao and Guan Le looked at each other. This question was really hard to answer.
Guan Le decisively passed the buck, "Well, I even failed the history test, Sixth sister, you know a lot, you come!"
Shen Zhaozhao didn’t understand either.
She grew up in the organization and is a leaky fish.
Shen Zhaozhao looked at Cao Ya's hopeful eyes, his throat dry, "To some extent, it has been achieved, but, at that time, it was not very important to us."
"The Qing court was overthrown, right?" Cao Ya asked.
Guan Yue understood this question and nodded immediately, "Of course!"
Cao Ya smiled. Under the moonlight, her eyebrows were curved and she looked relaxed, as if a heavy burden that had been on her back had suddenly been lifted.
"In my previous life, I wanted to end the feudal society and enter the industrial revolution like Western countries, so that we wouldn't be invaded by the Eight-Nation Alliance, and we wouldn't be bullied when signing treaties later."
"More than that." Guan Xiaole hesitated, "Later, we suffered a lot in the anti-Japanese and anti-American wars..."
“Ahem,” Shen Zhaozhao interrupted.
"What happened afterwards?" Cao Ya asked nervously.
"Nothing," Shen Zhaozhao motioned Guan Xiaole to stop talking, and looked at Cao Ya, "After all, when we were in that era, everything was fine. Students like you only had to worry about exams, not national affairs. No one dared to ask us to sign any unequal treaties anymore."
After hearing this, Cao Ya remained silent for a long time. Until the atmosphere became silent for a long time, she raised her hand and touched the corner of her eyes, seeming to be laughing and crying.
"very nice."
"When I saw you guys take out all kinds of powerful weapons, including that excavator, I knew our country would be in great shape after my death."
Shen Zhaozhao put his arm around her shoulders. He looked very thin underneath, and had a bold guess in his heart, "You and your classmates have done very well and are very brave. Are you going to the rally in May?"
"How do you know?" Cao Ya asked in surprise with red eyes.
Shen Zhaozhao's eyes were a little sore, "Because history will remember you."
Cao Ya was in a trance for a long time, and said with tears in his eyes: "It's a pity that I only had one person in my previous life, and I couldn't do what I wanted to do..."
"What are you afraid of!" Guan Le wiped his eyes, "We have six people in the Forbes Embassy in Feng! We will be there together later!"
"Okay." Shen Zhaozhao also laughed while crying, stretched out his body, and watched Cao Ya and Guan Le both covered with their bodies.
"Let's do it together!"
The main text is over, there are a few extra chapters.
