Dead look!
Xiaolongnu grumbled inwardly and stamped her feet...unconsciously revealing the cute and naive look of a little girl.
"Brother, are you still leaving?"
"Let's go, let's go!"
Di Fan was so fascinated by Xiao Longnu that he agreed quickly... The two of them ran down the mountain quickly using light skills, found the town as soon as possible, bought two horses, and headed straight for Tianshan.
However, this journey was completely different from what Di Fan had imagined...
Originally, Di Fan imagined a happy life in the martial arts world, where he would be accompanied by his junior sister and beautiful women, doing justice and fighting for justice.
As a pure Chinese, who doesn’t have a martial arts heart?
However, when he was actually walking on the road, he found that he thought he was too strong!
More than twenty years of education in his previous life had left a shining red heart deeply engraved in Di Fan's heart... However, he had originally thought that the Song Dynasty was at least the richest dynasty in Chinese history, and the people should have lived a pretty good life... But what appeared before his eyes was the Central Plains of China, where people were worse than dogs and even worse than in troubled times!
Rich Song, rich Song, but that little bit of wealth, but not the people at all ... the rich, is the scholars, officials, businessmen. The common people live in the lowest level, even worse than the lowest level.
Passing through towns, except for a few wealthy families and a few poor farmers, the rest are all poor people... Moreover, they have no land and can only rent land from landlords as tenants... They get up early and go to bed late every day, but they can't even have enough to eat. If they get seriously ill, they have to sell their children.
That day, Di Fan couldn't help but shed tears...
Not to mention the grass-cutting valleys that could be seen everywhere after leaving the Pass, and the countless Mongolian soldiers (the Jin Dynasty had been destroyed) carrying Song women, laughing and dragging babies and women, which made Di Fan's eyes burst with anger. Every time he encountered such a situation, he would personally take action and slaughter the Mongolian soldiers!
Xiaolongnu heard less and less of her senior brother's thoughts, and more often she saw Difan's expression of despair.
Just as they were about to reach Tianshan, the two found a place to rest. Looking at the bright night sky, Di Fan began to think seriously about his mission for the first time.
"My mission is to help the poor people of the world... But, if I watch helplessly as the Song Dynasty is overthrown by the Mongols, will the people ever truly be able to live a good life?"
[Two-legged sheep, wanton slaughter, even eating babies, using baby skulls as drinking vessels... How can the current Mongolian soldiers be worthy of my hopes?]
[Or, I support the Song Dynasty and personally assist a virtuous emperor to establish a dynasty?]
But there's another problem. The current official system, culture, and customs of the Song Dynasty are impossible to change. Even the current wise ministers, famous scholars, and patriotic generals would never understand my ideas. It's even more impossible for them to go against their class!
[I guess after all this time, they'll eventually ruin it themselves, right?]
[Ah! What a lousy mission! I won't be able to reach the next world in my lifetime!]
Xiao Longnu listened quietly to the eldest brother's thoughts and could roughly understand some of them... With the experience of eavesdropping in previous years, she could guess the general meaning of some nouns.
So, Big Brother felt that overthrowing the Song Dynasty wouldn't allow the people to live a good life? If he couldn't complete the mission, Big Brother wouldn't be able to return to the immortal world and would have to stay here with him?
Feeling Di Fan's heartfelt pain, and even more so, his compassion for the poor, Xiao Longnu began to believe that her eldest brother was truly a compassionate immortal. For the first time, she felt the urge to help him change the world...
"Big Brother,"
This was the first time that Xiao Longnu took the initiative to greet her senior brother after stepping out of the territory of the Song Dynasty... Mainly because she saw the Mongolian soldiers attacking the grass valley and the senior brother was always full of murderous intent, which made her really afraid to provoke him.
When an honest person gets angry, he is much more terrifying than ordinary people.
"Um?"
Di Fan lay on the grass and turned his head... Although he was holding a piece of grass in his mouth and looked nonchalant, he did not look like a gangster or decadent at all. Instead, he looked more like a sword drawn from its sheath, sharp and ready to kill at any time!
"I...I want to change the world."
Xiaolongnu said weakly.
"I want to change it, too," Di Fan sighed. "In this world, human life is worth less than a dog's... If it could be changed, I'd want to change it even more than you do..."
[Not to go back, but for the ancestors of China... for the people living at the bottom of society...]
"Unfortunately, it's very difficult and basically impossible to change." Di Fan seemed to be talking to Xiaolongnu, but also seemed to be talking to himself: "How can the confinement of thought be achieved without full trust and reform from top to bottom?"
"What if I become the empress?"
For some reason, Xiaolongnu's mind suddenly flashed to her idol, her master Lin Chaoying! That eternal empress, the one and only empress in China, who with her female body suppressed the eternal heavens, her power awed the four seas and eight wildernesses, the Tang Dynasty empress Wu Zetian, for whom all nations had erected the "Great Zhou Wanguo Songde Tianshu" (The Heavenly Pivot of Virtue)!
"What? You want to be the empress?"
Di Fan was stunned for a moment, his mind went blank, and he looked at Xiaolongnu stupidly.
"Yes, I will be the empress."
Before she said it out loud, Xiao Longnu was a little scared... But after she really said it out loud, Xiao Longnu found that it was no big deal!
Her master, arguably the most remarkable woman in the martial arts world, led the army against the Jin dynasty, her martial prowess rivaling that of the world's foremost Lin Chaoying. Raised by her, she had little regard for the relationship between monarch and subject...
In her heart, a good emperor is one who can make the people live a good life! Since the current emperor is not good enough, and the future dynasty that the eldest brother talked about is not good enough, then why can't she sit on the throne of emperor and, with the assistance of the eldest brother, become a great empress?!
