Chapter 138 Unsung Hero
Chapter 138 Unsung Hero
It is already May and the weather is not very cold anymore, but for Feng Huaying standing outside, it is like falling into an ice cellar.
She thought that Sister Nong Yue would be leaving soon, so she would sleep next to her these days.
After all, I don’t know how long this journey will take.
Ever since she met Sister Nong Yue, she has seen her almost every day. Now that she knows she is going to such a far place, she can't help but feel a little uncomfortable.
After thinking it over, I decided to sleep next to her tonight.
Unexpectedly, as soon as she got closer, she heard Feng Yuchang's voice inside. She originally planned to move away and wait for them to finish talking before going in.
Unexpectedly, I heard Feng Yushang say, "If you still consider me a sister, don't hide it from me."
Driven by curiosity, the steps that were about to move away stopped.
She was really curious about what secrets there were between the two of them, but she didn't want to hear such words.
Feng Huaying clutched her clothes tightly and muttered to herself, "I see."
She really believed Sister Nong Yue's words and thought she would be back in half a year at the latest. Unexpectedly...
Hearing the footsteps getting closer, Feng Huaying hurriedly hid in a covert place.
After Feng Yuchang's back completely disappeared from her sight, she no longer had the mood to go in.
Looking at the door that had closed again, she walked towards her room.
After returning to the house, Feng Huaying sat alone in the dark all night. No one knew what she was thinking about that night.
The second night.
The shadows of wind and flowers knock on Fengnongyue's door.
"crunch"
As the door opened, the faint light shone on her.
Looking at the person standing outside the door with his head lowered, Feng Nongyue was a little surprised, "Huaying, why are you here?"
Feng Huaying raised her head and forced a smile on her face, "I thought Sister Nong Yue was leaving soon, so I wanted to sleep next to her."
"Then come in quickly."
After closing the door, the two entered the house.
After coming in, Feng Huaying took off her coat, let her hair down, and then crawled to the inside of the bed.
Seeing that she was already lying down, Feng Nong Yue blew out the light.
Feeling the approaching heat source, Feng Huaying turned sideways and hugged her arm, "Sister Nong Yue, when will you be back?"
"I don't know, sister. Maybe it will be soon, or maybe it will take a long time. It depends on the situation over there."
"Which country is your sister going to?"
Feng Nong Yue turned sideways and patted her back gently. "It depends on the arrangements made by His Majesty. It might be the Yu Kingdom."
Feeling Feng Nong Yue's usual gentle voice, Feng Huaying, who had been holding it in for a whole day, could no longer hold back and sobbed in her arms.
"What's wrong? Did someone bully Huaying? Tell me and I'll help you."
"That's you."
"Huh? Me? Sister didn't bully Huaying. How could Huaying wrongly accuse Sister?"
Feng Huaying looked at the blurry person in front of her in the moonlight shining through the window, "How could you lie to me?"
"Why did my sister lie to you?"
"I heard."
"What did you hear?"
"The conversation between Sister Nong Yue and Feng Yuchang last night."
Upon hearing this, Feng Nong Yue's hands stiffened instantly.
"Huaying, forget what we said that night. Just pretend that you knew nothing and that you heard nothing."
Hearing the voice suddenly become serious, Feng Huaying shook her head and said, "Sister Nong Yue, I've thought about it. I want to go too. We have a good life now, but there are still many women suffering in places like that."
"Life there is really tiring. The best outcome is to marry a high-ranking official and become a concubine, serving others. If you can't leave that place, the only outcome is death, and it might even be an undignified death."
"Someone has to do the spy work. Perhaps because of us, your majesty's troops can soon overrun their capital, and they can regain their freedom sooner."
"When Your Majesty unifies the country, brothels will become a thing of the past. There are simply too many people who are forced to do things for themselves there."
“It feels good to hold your own destiny in your own hands.”
Listening to Feng Huaying's words, Feng Nongyue's heart gradually calmed down, "Our Huaying has grown up."
"I've grown up a long time ago, Sister Nong Yue. I'm almost twenty years old and I'm no longer a child."
"Huaying, aren't you afraid? If you go there, you might die in a foreign land."
"I'm not afraid. I've earned all these years of my life. It's just..."
I'm afraid I won't be able to see Sister Nong Yue for the last time, that would be really regrettable.
"Just what?"
"Nothing, it's late, Sister Nong Yue, let's go to bed."
After a good night's sleep, it's dawn in the blink of an eye.
After Yun Zhi and Feng Nong Yue’s conversation that day, a dedicated person would coordinate with Feng Nong Yue to take care of the remaining matters.
After Feng Nong Yue told the story of Feng Yushang and Feng Huaying, he got the approval soon.
Their assignments were also announced: Feng Nong Yue went to Yu State, Feng Hua Ying went to Yue State, and Feng Yu Shang went to Liao State. As for the remaining Wu State, there were naturally arrangements as well.
In the later stages, they carefully studied the terrain, customs and people of the country they were going to, and learned various codes and techniques for transmitting intelligence.
Late May is also the day of departure.
The sisters hugged each other and said goodbye in the courtyard.
They just knew that there were not enough people, so they added two more people, but they didn't know about the extra people.
The sisters looked at each other with reluctance, "You must be careful, we will wait for you to come back here."
"okay."
The three of them turned around and got on carriages from different teams, heading to different places.
They didn't know whether they could return safely on this trip.
Their names may not be recorded in history books, and they may not even appear in unofficial histories.
The decade or so of chaos they lived in may only receive a few mentions in history books.
But this is the life of many people, and they also shone during that period.
Heroes don't necessarily leave their names behind, there are too many unsung heroes in the world.
But they have no regrets about this trip.
