MTL - Restart the Protagonist’s Way of Survival-Chapter 13 before and after backtracking
Xie Zhi met Prime Minister Bai when he was twelve years old.
At that time, Bai Xun was only minister of the Ministry of Officials, and he invited himself to Longzhou to control the flood of the Yellow River.
On the streets of Longzhou, he picked up Xie Zhi who was fainted on the ground.
There was an abnormal amount of rain in that summer, and the burst dam gushed out several feet of river water, taking away Xie Zhi's parents and relatives, and buried them forever under the sand.
No part of Xie Zhi's body was clean, the coarse clothes rolled over the loess, and there were also large and small wounds on his body. She developed a high fever and was placed in the Yamen of Longzhou Prefecture, where she lay there for ten days.
The Yellow River flows through the central part of Longzhou, where ravines criss-cross and the land is fragmented. The Yellow River is like a restless dragon in the wilderness, and Longzhou cannot control it.
After the flood, there was another plague. The people living there were unbearable and humbly begged the river **** to appease his anger.
Bai Xun loved the people like a son, and joined forces with local officials in Longzhou to lead the people there to move north and south for more than a hundred miles along the Yellow River to build new homes in the south and north of Longzhou. Only the local officials and the Ministry of Industry were left. Expatriates stayed in the center for post-disaster reconstruction.
The flood destroyed many people's homes and took away many lives. Suddenly, there were many orphans in Longzhou City. Almost all of these orphans fell ill. In the end, not many were saved. Xie Zhi was one of the survivors .
Xie Zhi was seriously ill, with wound infection and high fever. In those few days, despite the doctor's best efforts to treat her, they still couldn't wake her up from the coma. Many people thought that she had little hope of surviving, but unexpectedly, she recovered.
Bai Xun was very happy, and asked her if she could remember her name. The twelve-year-old child opened her round eyes and muttered: "Thank you...thank you..."
"Is your surname Xie?"
"Where is his surname Xie? His parents didn't give him a name." The yamen servant on the side interjected.
"No name?" Bai Xun said in surprise.
So the kid just wanted to thank himself? Bai Xun thought and smiled knowingly.
Pretty polite.
"Hey, this child, his parents are gone, and his house has been destroyed. How can he survive?"
"Now the nursing home and Anjifang are oversaturated with personnel, and it is difficult to accommodate a child no matter how crowded they are."
Bai Xun heard the sympathetic conversations among the officials.
He knelt down and said to the young Xie Zhi: "My child, do you want to go back to the capital with me? My lord is very powerful."
The officials on the side were very surprised when they heard this, but he didn't care what they thought. The young Xie Zhi had just recovered from his illness, so he didn't seem to understand what he said.
"Do you want to take my surname?" Bai Xun thought for a while after speaking, as if he didn't want to be gossiped about, he shook his head and said to himself, "Forget it, your surname is Xie, I'll think about the name..."
Bai Xun's thinking is always very detached, he took out all her name and letters in one go.
"Your name is Xie Zhi, and your nickname is Zhirui." He nodded as he spoke, as if he was very satisfied with the name.
So at the age of twelve, she returned to the capital with Dasheng's official secretary.
Bai Xun took her back to the Bai Mansion where the prime minister's plaque was not hung at that time, where Xie Zhi met Bai Qingyang who was five years younger than him for the first time.
In fact, Xie Zhi didn't communicate much with Bai Qingyang, one was because the age gap between the two was a bit big, and the other was because Xie Zhi couldn't see Bai Qingyang all the time.
Mrs. Bai has never been a suspicious and jealous woman, she knows Bai Xun's character, and she takes good care of little Xie Zhi.
Xie Zhi didn't live in the Baifu at that time, Bai Xun arranged her to be raised in the government office in Linjing.
Bai Xun taught her to read and write, taught her etiquette, righteousness and shame, and taught her how to behave in the world.
Bai Xun is very kind, but he is really strict with Xie Zhi. I can't remember the reason why Bai Xun knew that he had adopted a little girl, but Bai Xun just gave Xie Zhi an extra look.
It was just a small episode in ordinary life, like a stone thrown into a lake, causing ripples, and finally returning to calm.
Bai Xun was still strict with Xie Zhi as always, and raised Xie Zhi like a boy. He seemed to have forgotten that he picked up a girl.
Xie Zhi started to work in the government office at the age of fifteen, and the three years of experience made her feel comfortable doing things. The colleagues in the government office all said that Bai Shangshu accepted a good student.
At the beginning, Xie Zhi just handed over a document or sorted out the files for those officials, but he did it in an orderly manner.
Later, when he helped the judge solve a moderate case, Xie Zhi began to participate in the trial and investigation.
When Xie Zhi was a teenager, she often ran around the capital to investigate cases. It was very hard, but she enjoyed it.
It was a wonderful time, Xie Zhi really wanted to live like this forever, Xie Zhi was very satisfied to have her place in the Beijing Government Office.
But the heavens did not fulfill the wishes of the people, and without any warning signs, Prime Minister Bai ended up in the end of exterminating his family.
There were more than 200 people in the Prime Minister's Mansion, except Mrs. Bai, Bai Qingyang and two servant girls who went back to Qinzhou to sweep the grave, all of them were in distress.
That night, the Prime Minister's Mansion was ablaze, and the entire night sky was red, and when Jingzhao Mansion Yin and the City Guard and Patrol Division arrived, the blood flowed all the way to the street in front of the Prime Minister's Mansion.
The first emperor was furious, and ordered that even if Linjing was dug three feet into the ground, the murderer who murdered Prime Minister Bai should be found.
But who doesn't know, Prime Minister Bai is deeply loved by the people, people who are far away from the capital may not know who the current emperor is, but they must know this prime minister through the ages.
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that the emperor is afraid of his great achievements, and they all acquiesce that the emperor is exhausted, the good bow is hidden, the cunning rabbit is dead, and the lackey is cooked.
But Xie Zhi didn't want to believe the rumors, she was Bai Xun's student and she knew Bai Xun's personality best.
He does things for the people wholeheartedly, and is indifferent to fame, but sometimes he is so childish that he would compete with children for candy.
Such a person colluded with the enemy, treasoned the country, deceived the emperor, and committed crimes, with a heart of disobedience?
This is too strange, someone must have framed it.
Xie Zhi swore that he would prove Prime Minister Bai's innocence and avenge his injustice. But she was only a canon historian in the yamen, and it was not easy to overturn the case for Prime Minister Bai.
The stalemate was quickly broken. A few days after the prime minister's mansion was destroyed, someone from the court said that she had been recommended by someone, and she would be working in the Central Criminal Department from now on.
Xie Zhi's gender concept is very weak. She has always shown herself in men's attire, and she has never deliberately tried to hide anything.
But once she entered the Ministry of Punishment, she had to take pains to disguise herself, because there were no female officials in the imperial court, and once her identity was revealed, she would be deceiving the emperor and would be beheaded, so she couldn't die yet.
This is Xie Zhi's secret, and it's a setting that was not clearly written in the novel that Yang Dejin read.
Apart from Xie Zhi himself, perhaps Prime Minister Bai was the only one who knew her identity as a woman, but that person had already passed away.
Even Mrs. Bai and Bai Qingyang thought Xie Zhi was a kid, and Xie Zhi never thought of telling them.
The fewer people who know, the better.
For many years, she has never given up on investigating the mystery of the year.
Bai Qingyang was forcibly summoned into the palace by the emperor's absurd edict. She found Bai Qingyang and told her the passage to leave the palace secretly, which opened up the long and tormented forbearance between the two separated by the palace wall.
She promised Bai Qingyang that she would free Mrs. Bai from being detained in Qinzhou. She did it, but she failed to protect Mrs. Bai. On the way, Mrs. Bai was suddenly tired and frightened by the journey, which was the eternal pain in Xie Zhi's heart.
Later, with guilt in his heart, Xie Zhi worked hard to help Bai Qingyang.
Bai Qingyang killed Li Chou, got rid of Prince Yu, and eliminated many other forces. Daqing replaced Shengchao as the new country name.
Bai Qingyang is a good emperor, she can pardon the world and bring peace to the people, and she can also guard the country's gates but Shuobei. Under her rule, the rule of the Central Plains has ushered in a golden age.
However, among all the rivers and seas, only Bai Qingyang was unhappy, she lived in hatred, and she was rewarded by killing Li Gong, and her revenge was rewarded. Instead of feeling happy, Bai Qingyang was full of bewilderment about life.
Every time Xie Zhi saw Bai Qingyang like that, self-blame haunted her like a ghost.
As time passed, Prime Minister Bai's case became more and more difficult to investigate.
As the ruler of a country, Bai Qingyang could not avenge his father...
The day before Xie Zhi recalled, Bai Qingyang was going to leave the palace in a modest manner, Xie Zhi asked her where she was going and what she was doing. Bai Qingyang said that he would go back to the old site of the Prime Minister's Mansion to relax.
Xie Zhi went with her.
She always had a premonition in her heart that Bai Qingyang might never come back after leaving.
She didn't know whether Bai Qingyang had returned to the palace or not, she only knew that when she opened her eyes, the time came when Bai Qingyang entered the palace for more than a month.
The backtracking happened so suddenly, Xie Zhi took some time to clarify the status quo. She saw this as an opportunity, a chance to change that hopeless future.
With the blessing of past memories, she did change a lot of things, Xie Zhi quickly got in touch with Bai Qingyang.
She took Mrs. Bai out of Qinzhou in advance, and strengthened the protection measures, and finally let her teacher and wife arrive in the capital safely.
She also sent her own staff to the palace ahead of time for Bai Qingyang to dispatch.
She knew that Bai Qingyang would be able to change the dynasty and establish himself as emperor after enduring this moment.
What Xie Zhi wanted to do was to protect the living and to avenge the injustice of the deceased.
But some changes beyond her expectation also followed.
First, the emperor Li Chou suddenly worked hard and let Bai Qingyang listen to the government behind the curtain; then there was a sudden visit from Prince Yu, which caught her by surprise.
The changes of these two people made her feel uneasy. Could it be that these two people are also tracers like herself?
not like.
What would Li Fu and Yang Dejin do if they knew their respective endings? Of course, it is to cut the weeds and eradicate the roots, so as to avoid future troubles.
But Li Fu not only did not do this, but let Bai Qingyang go to court to participate in politics, not knowing what he wanted.
On the other hand, Yang Dejin's behavior made her even more unpredictable.
Li Chou and Yang Dejin, these two people are not the female emperor and Prince Yu that I know.
She can't fully control the initiative.
How to do…
Xie Zhi, who was lying on the bed and thinking wildly, ushered in the dawn amidst the sleepiness.
The author has something to say:
Xiaorui has also suffered a lot, wow, mother's treasure (crying tears)
