Diplomat's Wife

Chapter 292 This little girl is too clueless!
After walking on the muddy ground for more than ten minutes, Mu Qiqi followed Buchar to a cemetery.

Such an arrangement really surprised Mu Qiqi. The cemetery was guarded by local villagers. When they saw Buchar coming, they greeted them excitedly. They were talking about something. Although Mu Qiqi couldn't understand, it was obvious that Buchar Charle's amiable look was probably trying to comfort the people about the transition from the flood.

People brought clear water and asked Mu Qiqi and his party to wash their soiled feet. According to local customs, one must go barefoot in the cemetery to show respect for the deceased.

When walking along the way, Mu Qiqi felt a slight pain in her feet. After flushing, she found that her white and tender jade feet were covered with bloodstains, and there were some bloody dark spots, which were probably caused by some insects. The bite came, and the picture was really heart-wrenching.

Gu Chenyu had been carrying Mu Qiqi's bamboo drag, and now he handed it over to her to put it on, so as not to infect the wound, but Mu Qiqi shook her head and refused, going abroad to visit, respecting the local customs and etiquette, this is The most basic courtesy.

Mu Qiqi followed Buchar, stepping barefoot on the steps leading to the high place, and saw that Buchar had a solemn expression, followed the local sacrificial etiquette, stopped every three steps, and joined hands to worship.

The villagers who were receiving the relief supplies just now also followed, walking behind Buchar, following his footsteps together.

The mighty worship team of hundreds of people is solemn and magnificent.

However, it took more than half an hour for a group of people to walk up the hundreds of steps.

Finally came to the last step, although Mu Qiqi didn't do three steps and one bow like them, but her hurt feet were enough to make her ache every step of the way, and she was sweating profusely after walking the short distance.

The moment I stepped on the top platform, there was no sacred place in the temple as I imagined. In the center of the fence tens of meters away, I saw a white marble tablet more than [-] meters high. The long wall is filled with local characters.

Although she couldn't understand the words on it, Mu Qiqi saw the date on the stele. She was very familiar with that date. It was the day when Grandpa broke into Ximian Capital City and stained Mian City with blood.

Mu Qiqi looked at the stone tablet, feeling very touched, as if she wanted to be sure, she still asked Gu Yuyu who was beside her.

Gu Yuyu told her that, as she expected, this place is the Holocaust Monument in the local population, to commemorate the 20 people who died in the war that year.

Buchar finished his devout worship towards the tombstone, and then turned to look at Mu Qiqi, "The 20 Ximian people lying here will not accept your apology, let alone accept your alms. The people of Ximian will not forgive you."

After listening to Gu Yuyu's translation, Mu Qiqi suppressed the heaviness in her heart, and replied, "Regarding the war 30 years ago, Jinling's casualties were by no means a minority, but our casualties, because of the international Due to the pressure exerted, they are still not allowed to enter the cemetery as martyrs. Therefore, in order to rectify those names and restore the Ximian War, I will definitely find out what happened back then."

Buchar sneered, "This is your so-called attitude towards history in Jinling? On the one hand, you accuse others of occupying your Liusu Island, and you keep saying that you want to recover the land and force the other party to apologize. On the other hand, you blame yourself in Ximian Repeatedly denying the wrong things you have done, sealing people's mouths, and repeatedly punishing them, is this what you should be responsible for?"

Mu Qiqi was silent for a moment, and then said, "Since my father-in-law took office, he has not imposed stricter sanctions on Ximian like previous predecessors. What's more, after this negotiation, Jinling has reduced or waived several sanctions. I believe that for the two countries, this is a good basis for peaceful talks, and I am willing to make efforts to this end."

"Yan Guojun's blood debt, you actually want a little girl like you to pay it? He doesn't dare to come, does he?" Buchar asked coldly.

Mu Qiqi shook her head, "I'm not here to repay the debt. No matter what happened in the past, right or wrong, it's not something that can be resolved in a short while. I only think that for the sake of the people's livelihood, for these people , we should look forward, if my efforts can help the people here live a better life, I am willing to work hard for it.”

"Ridiculous!" Buchar yelled and roared, "You think we will forgive you if you donate some materials and donate some property? Then let our people be grateful to you, and in a few decades, No one remembers the bloodbath of Miancheng back then, right? Do you want to cover up history in this way? Obliterate the truth?"

The man with white temples and vicissitudes of life stared wide-eyed, and pressed his hand on his waist angrily on the gun bag, and the atmosphere was tense for a while.

Behind him, the villagers who followed along the way heard Buchar's words, and only then did they know that Mu Qiqi was originally sent by the Jinling side. Suddenly, public grievances arose, and the people surrounded them angrily, questioning loudly, if it hadn't been for Buchar Er's guards stopped her, at this moment, Mu Qiqi might be in danger.

Some angry villagers picked up stones on the side of the road and threw them at Mu Qiqi. The surrounding area was empty and there was no way to dodge.

Mu Qiqi could only stare at the flying stones in a daze, almost at the same time, Gu Yuyu hurriedly protected Mu Qiqi's body, blocked the flying stones with her broad back, crackling The sound hit the man's muscles and bones, and he knew how painful it must be, but Gu Yuyu didn't even move his brows.

Even with all kinds of protection, the gap was still exploited, and the rocks grazed Gu Chenxi's earlobe, and hit Mu Qiqi's forehead, leaving a bloodstain on her porcelain jade-like white skin.

"Madam." Almost subconsciously, Gu Yuyu hugged Mu Qiqi in his arms in a panic, and pressed her head to his chest.

I don't know how long this embarrassment lasted, and panic will lengthen people's perception of time.

Finally, Buchar raised his hand slightly, and the people stopped because of the majesty of the general, but the eyes full of hatred were still glaring at the men and women in front of the monument.

"Did you see? This is hatred. This time, Ouyang Ping and the others were able to get out alive. Next time, they will never be so lucky." Buchar snapped.

Mu Qiqi had already broken free from Gu Yuyu's arms. She approached Buchar and stopped at a distance of two steps away from him. The man who was revered by the local people like a god said righteously: "Is it just luck that the Jinling delegation was allowed to enter this time? Because you know that Jinling will spare no effort to maintain the stability of the [-] people in Xichuan. You want to use this opportunity to get some material assistance for the people of Ximian, and am I wrong?"

Mu Qiqi's questioning voice cheered everyone present, even though they couldn't understand Mu Qiqi's words, people could feel the fearlessness of this little girl just from her aura.

After listening to Gu Yuyu's translation, Buchar fell silent. Mu Qiqi has been staying in Ximian for nearly a month. As the foreigner who has stayed the longest since Ximian locked the country, Mu Qiqi is very concerned about Ximian's national conditions. He must have already felt quite a lot, and he couldn't hide it.

Mu Qiqi continued: "You want to seek more benefits for the people of Ximian, and I am willing to work hard as your envoy to communicate with Jinling. Sympathy is also the promise I can make to you as Jin Yu's wife, it has nothing to do with the past, nothing to do with anything, it's just out of concern for these Ximian people."

A sentence, a sound, Gu Yuyu, who was the first to understand the meaning of these words, was shocked.

And when he translated these words to Buchar and the others, the people who were still angry just now gradually became silent.

Compared with those official rhetoric, Mu Qiqi's words were sincere, causing everyone to be silent for a while.

Facing the silence of the crowd, Mu Qiqi turned around and bowed deeply to the monument, then turned around and walked down the hundred steps.

Seeing this move, the guard walked up to Buchar and said unwillingly: "This little girl is too inconsiderate!"

The one who dared to sternly drink to Buchar like this, Mu Qiqi is still the No.1 who has never come before.

The guard seemed to be about to do something, Buchar slightly raised his hand, "Don't hurt her."

Every anniversary, Buchar would give an impassioned mourning speech in front of the monument, torturing the history of the year, but now the granddaughter of the enemy is standing in front of him, disrespecting him, this general However, he was uncharacteristically neither violent nor angry, which was an unimaginable scene in people's minds.
