There is not much to say about the war against Japan.
No one could understand Li Po's thoughts, because they would never have imagined that those savages hanging on the overseas islands would cause a catastrophe to the Central Plains in the future.
The casualties of 35 million people do not include the pain caused to the Chinese nation from the late Ming Dynasty, when Japanese pirates rampaged along the coast until the Sino-Japanese War of Sino-Japanese War, when the Japanese invaded the Northeast.
In those eight years, the land of China was covered in blood. There are still people who dare to forget such pain. They are really forgetting their ancestors and are not worthy of being descendants of China.
…………
After Li Jing left, Li Po was thinking leisurely in Tai Chi Hall.
He made a sample here first, so that people who would come later would not have to worry about who the ancestors of the humanoid creatures on the island were. After this battle, the Japanese island would be included in the territory of the Tang Dynasty.
After a few years of raids, all the Japanese on the island were captured and brought to the Central Plains for construction. How could they still have any ancestors to speak of?
…………
In May, the warm summer wind drives away the harsh spring cold.
In the southern suburbs of Chang'an, by the artificial lake of Chang'an Maritime Academy, Lu Xiangjun and Li Keqing walked hand in hand.
Li Keqing looked at the surrounding scenery boredly. She was born in a family in the south of the Yangtze River and was used to seeing beautiful scenery. As a painter, she felt that there were too many chiseling marks here. Every plant and tree was not natural. It was even more disturbing.
Not interested.
Especially since there were soldiers guarding the place and the defense was quite tight, which made her very nervous.
She looked enviously at the young lady walking leisurely beside her, and said to her heart a thousand times that it was really different when Madam Lu climbed up to a high branch.
In the past, when they came to such a place to play, they would definitely have to be accompanied by a powerful person before they could enter, but now Madam Lu has no obstruction...
I don’t know if Mrs. Cheng Guo needs someone to draw a portrait or something. If she can come closer and talk to her, she, a newcomer, may be able to live a more relaxed life.
Thinking of Mrs. Cheng Guo... When Li Keqing heard about the origin of Mrs. Cheng Guo and their origins from Mr. Lu Xiang, even now, thinking back on it, Li Keqing had an extremely unreal feeling.
The empress of the former dynasty, the most beautiful woman in the world, and the aunt of Xiao Xian, the empress of Liang Dynasty, is still alive and has become Mrs. Cheng Guo today. Apart from being shocked, it really makes people think...
Well, because all her regular customers were kidnapped and the news was too limited, she had to memorize the hero's book when she arrived in Chang'an.
Anyway, she is currently living in Lord Luxiang's residence and is initially adapting to life in Chang'an.
As for his future travels, Li Keqing didn't have many plans, because it depended on Lu Xiangjun's arrangements.
Although she is a famous painter in Jiangyou and has a place in the ranks of famous prostitutes in Jiangnan, she has no reputation in Chang'an, the capital.
This is also the reason why many famous prostitutes are reluctant to leave the place where they have lived for a long time. When you go to another place, you may have to regain your popularity, which is not very friendly to prostitutes, and you may have to pay a high price.
When Li Keqing found out about Mr. Lu Xiang's situation, he immediately gave up the idea of going out to show his face and gain fame, and temporarily left his future destiny to Mrs. Lu.
However, as a famous prostitute, she must be careful. She has long passed the stage of looking at the face of the madam, and she cannot always rely on others.
Moreover, she was getting older. When she married Wang Ju, the Minister of Civil Affairs of Liang State, she actually wanted to find someone to rely on to avoid being miserable in her later years...
But once you get into the world, it's so easy to escape. Wang Ju died soon after, and Li Keqing was kicked out, leaving almost nothing behind.
Frustrated, Li Keqing returned to her old business. Fortunately, she had not left for a few years, and her reputation was still there. Otherwise, she would probably have jumped into the water and hung on the beam long ago like her predecessors.
went.
Lu Xiangjun's current life is what she has always wanted in her dreams. In fact, it is also the ultimate goal of many prostitutes.
A few days ago, she jokingly said to Lu Xiangjun, "My sister has an extraordinary status now, why don't she choose a good man to marry? Isn't it lonely to be so alone with no knowledgeable person to talk to?"
Lu Xiangjun's answer at the time was, "Shilang Wang is knowledgeable and has always cared for women. How are you doing now?"
It struck a vital point at once, and Li Keqing's heart was throbbing uncomfortably, but she did not dare to retaliate. Madam Lu now is no different from the powerful people she served in the past.
Not only did she get married to Mrs. Chengguo, she also had a position in Taichang Temple. She was considered a serious member of the officialdom. Even if she was wronged, she would always keep her smiling face.
In fact, Lu Xiangjun has been pretty good to her these days. He didn't let her do this or that like a madam. Otherwise, she really wouldn't be able to resist.
……………………
"Why did my sister bring me here today? Chang'an Maritime Academy? The name is really weird. I have never heard of it in Jiangling."
Lu Xiangjun smiled, taking her unique little steps, bouncing her body, "Sister, please be patient. The name of this place does sound a bit weird, but it was built with the permission of the emperor. The gates are tightly guarded, waiting for idlers.
No entry allowed.
Once you meet someone, sister, be careful what you say and never treat the person as a guest."
Li Keqing's eyes flashed, and he covered his mouth and laughed, "Did my sister sell her sister? That's okay, but you have to tell me who you're meeting, right?"
Seeing her like that, Lu Xiangjun sighed in his heart. He had been thinking about seducing men all day long, and he didn't know how he drew those beautiful paintings.
He explained to Li Keqing: "My sister painted a portrait for me a few days ago. The painting is really good. They say that my sister is very good at landscape painting. I don't think she can be as good at character painting."
Li Keqing pouted after hearing the case, that's not what you said at the time, right? You just took away the picture of a lady playing the piano without being polite, but you even said that I didn't consider it carefully and added a few birds to make it more vivid.
That is to say, I have a good temper, otherwise I would have shut you out like I did back then.
The so-called three women in one drama, they are only two, but the inner drama is really much.
"My sister praised me too much. The characters I drew were a bit dull and failed to show my sister's charm. I really made a fool of myself."
"My sister is too modest. There are so many people painting in Jiangnan, but my sister is the only one who is famous. It shows that my sister has great painting skills. I brought my sister here this time to use her skills.
Sister, please don’t ignore it. If you do this well, you will become famous in the capital in just a moment."
Li Keqing immediately regained his energy and said, "Good sister, don't show off. Just tell me what you want your sister to do. Your sister will definitely care about you, and you will definitely get a share of the benefits."
