179. Past
In the military tent of Beiying in Fenzhou, Luo Qing was discussing important military matters with Xiao Jue, the young marshal of the Yanyun Dragoon Guard.
Counting the day, it has been four days since Princess Mu rushed to Shangluo, and there is still no news at all, Luo Qing has been with the young marshal Xiao Jue as much as possible after the completion of the army, even if he wants to go to the training camp in person, he does not hesitate to let the deputy general help to stay by the young marshal's side, because Luo Qing knows that although the young marshal is still calm and calm all the way, and the military orders are also decisive and neat, but he has to become more and more ruthless at the beginning.
In such a situation, Luo Qing knew the reason very well, and knew what it meant.
The young marshal began to blame herself for the pony incident, and even began to torture herself with such special means!
Luo Qing and Ziyu have been following the side of the young marshal Xiao Jue since they were very young, she and Ziyu were originally born in a merchant family, and Aya was in Huaishuo to sell leather goods, because Aya is still a good businessman, and his family is quite well-off. Later, Aya was introduced to Ah Niang, and it didn't take long for him to marry Ah Niang.
Two years later, A-Niang gave birth to a pair of twin sisters, when Aya happened to come back from the outside business, got two pieces of fine red jade and purple jade, it happened that A-Niang gave birth to two children for him, so he felt that this must be a gift from God, so he invited the best craftsmen to specially carve these two pieces of jade, respectively to his newborn children, and named them respectively.
My sister's name is Ziyu, and my sister's name is Hongyu.
If there were no accidents, their family should be able to live happily, but they never thought that the sky would fall on the disaster, the Turks in the north coveted the Central Plains regime, and began to constantly send troops to harass the border towns, and Huaishuo was one of the important towns of the Turkic strategy.
That year, Ziyu and Hongyu were only eight years old, and Aya heard that the Turks in the north were about to invade, so he planned to leave Huaishuo Town with his wife and children overnight and flee to the south, but on that day, the Turks attacked Huaishuo at night, killing people when they saw them, robbing them when they saw money, and the defenders were afraid of the enemy, so they abandoned the city and fled without desperate resistance!
That night became the most terrible and unforgettable night among the people who survived the catastrophe in Huaishuo Town!
The Turks who attacked the city opened the gates, and this barbaric and terrible Turkic army broke into the city, and for a time the city was full of fire, and the moans of the people and the cries of children resounded in the sky.
This group of Turks killed and plundered all the way, plundered almost all the livestock and goods in the city, killed all the people in the city they saw along the way, many innocent women were tragically humiliated to death, and the captured boys and girls will be taken back to the Turks and distributed to the Turkic nobles as slaves!
And Aya A-Niang of Ziyu and Hongyu did not escape such a fate, the carriage of their family's escape happened to meet the Turks who came on horseback, and soon, Aya died tragically under the Turkic knife, A-Niang was dragged down the carriage by several Turks, and several people suddenly tore A-Niang's clothes frantically!
Ah Niang was humiliated, and finally bumped into the knife of the Turks, and killed herself, Ziyu and Hongyu watched this bloody and terrible scene play out in front of them, and tears of resentment and fear burst out of their eyes.
Aya and A-Niang died tragically, what will be their fate?
A Turkic man set his eyes on the two children, and after saying a few Turkic words to the soldiers around him, the Turkic soldiers came to catch Ziyu and Ruby.
The Turkic soldier took a fancy to the delicate-looking Ziyu, so he grabbed Ziyu's shoulder, Ziyu was so frightened that she cried, but Hongyu pounced on it and bit the Turkic soldier's mouth with hatred!
The Turkic soldier was furious, and threw the red jade to the ground with a palm, and withdrew his hand to find that his hand had been bitten by the wild child, and the blood was still flowing, and the Turkic soldier cursed a few words in Turkic language, and then raised his scimitar high, and wanted to cut off the red jade's head immediately.
Seeing that Hongyu was in danger, Ziyu didn't care much, so she rushed over and hugged the Turkic soldier's leg, and also bit the Turkic soldier's leg with hatred.
The Turkic soldier kicked away the purple jade with one kick, and still swung his knife to slash at the dying red jade, just at this moment, a young general dressed in white armor rushed straight on his horse, skillfully pulled the bow and arrow on the horseback, only heard a few swishing sounds, and several Turkic soldiers surrounded by the two children fell down in response, but saw that every arrow pierced the eyes of the Turkic soldiers, almost a hundred shots, one blow killed!
But when he saw this white-robed young general, he immediately said loudly:
"Yanyun Dragoon Guard Xiao Jue is here, Turkic child, don't be rampant!"
Between the words, it is majestic and unstoppable!
When the banner of Yanyun Dragoon was raised high in the army, the Turkic commander suddenly changed his face, quickly organized the remnants of his subordinates, and immediately withdrew from Huaishuo Town.
Seeing that although the Turkic army was in a hurry when they retreated, they did not disturb the formation, and the white-robed young general did not rush to chase after him, but just drove the Turks all the way out of Huaishuo Town, and then returned to Huaishuo Town, and redeployed the army to defend again, in case the Turks attacked again!
The rough man's words got into my ears like this, although the whole sentence was to cancel the meaning of ridicule, I didn't get angry, I just felt that he was right, obviously the umbrella is in my hand, why did I forget to play the umbrella?
Quite self-deprecatingly smiled, stopped and looked at the place where the man was, this wine shop looks a little old, although the furnishings are old, but the guests are indeed full of seats and benches, it can be seen that the business here is good on weekdays, and the taste of their home-brewed wine should also be good!
The man muttered in his heart for a while, he didn't see my words at first, but now he saw me looking at him, and thought I was looking for him.
I was about to bow my head and apologize to the young man, but I looked at the full house of acquaintances, and the big guy didn't look up and see him on weekdays.
The old horse's face turned red, and he glared angrily, and simply broke the jar and broke it, and he lost his life, and it was a big deal to pay for his life, and his old horse was cheap, and he didn't think he had earned it!
"Stinky boy, what do you see, didn't you see the old horse and I was drinking?"
It's really drunk and cowardly, this old horse is drunk today or whatever, just make amends, I want to make things so complicated, this time it's good, that young man will definitely not be kind to him.
I couldn't help but look at the bowl of wine on the man's table, and with a sneering expression, I said:
"You...... Is it also a wine fight?"
Listening to my words, these men who don't drink and do things on weekdays are all stunned, looking at this young man's emaciation, this tone is really big to the sky, why, does he also want to come and fight with their group of men who don't drink or have fun?
Under the persident gaze of the crowd, I led the horse to the side of the stake and tied the reins of the horse, and then strolled into the wine shop, and everywhere I went, the men gave way to themselves.
I walked to the old horse's table so calmly, and the people who had been at the same table with the old horse avoided the way, put the oil-paper umbrella on the wooden table, and sat opposite the old horse.
Along the way, the originally dry ground was wet with rain stains on my body, and I didn't feel anything when I walked outside, but as soon as I sat down, my whole body was dripping with water droplets, and I couldn't help but wring out the water stains on the cuffs and the hem of my official uniform, and in a moment I was sitting down and I got a lot wet.
Everyone looked at me with strange eyes, and it seemed that it was the first time they had seen such a high-ranking official and nobleman who disregarded his image.
I looked at the wet shops of other people, looked back at the proprietress embarrassedly, and said busily:
"Boss, I'm really sorry, I wet your shop, or else, you give me a few jars of good wine, I want to fight with this old horse brother, and also relieve the cold of this body by the way, I'm tired!"
As he spoke, he took out the money bag from his bosom and threw it to the proprietress who saw that I was not a difficult master to serve, nor did it look like I was in the future, and seeing that I was young and wet, she remembered her son who was so big and doing business outside, and her heart softened, and she said with a smile:
"Okay, guests wait first, although my family's wine is not as expensive as the big wine shop, but everyone knows it in this alley, I'll go get you a bowl of ginger soup to relieve the cold!"
I smiled and bowed with my fists, and said:
"Thank you, hostess!"
Seeing the proprietress enter the back room with a smile, I looked back at the stunned old horse, and said with a smile:
"Why, look down on our public people? Do you think I'm not worthy of fighting with you? Why don't you do this, if you can fight with me, I will cover all the wine money in the wine shop today, how about it?"
As I spoke, I picked up the half-bowl of wine on the table that I hadn't finished drinking, and unceremoniously, took a sip of it.
"Ha, good wine, good wine, no worse than the big wine shop, no wonder this wine shop is overcrowded. ”
Throwing the wine bowl on the table so happily, the people around me saw that I was so arrogant, and they applauded loudly, and saw that I was generous and open-minded regardless of my previous suspicions, which was really a man.
"Little brother, good job!"
"Yes, it's a man!"
......
Everyone raised their bowls to salute me, I was busy returning the salute, Lao Ma didn't expect that I was such a heroic nobleman, such an atmospheric aristocrat is rare, and the nobleman who can drink at the same table with the commoners is the only one in his old horse's life.
A heroic spirit that will never fall spontaneously arises, and the old horse also picked up the wine bowl, saluted me with a bowl, and said:
"Little brother, Fang is my old horse who has eyes and doesn't know Mount Tai, so he is arrogant to the little brother, my old horse will make you a friend, if there is any difficulty in going to the dock in the future, find my old horse, and go to the soup for the brother, and never shirk!"
"Brother Ma is also a tough guy, my Xiao Gao also admires it tightly, we are brothers after doing this bowl, Xiao Gao, I respect all brothers for a bowl!"
"Okay, come, if you dry this bowl, you're a brother!"
I can't help but be infected by the enthusiasm of this group of men, raise the wine bowl and do it first, the interest of the big guy was instantly pushed to a high point, and the proprietress of the wine was also moved out of the jar, and finally drank with us in one place, this wine shop is very lively, laughter, provoked the people around the wine shop have sideways.
After three rounds of drinking, the old horse guy was about to drink down, and I was half drunk and half awake, I originally wanted to drink some wine to relieve the depression in my heart, but at this time I was led by this group of heroic men, and I drank too happily, and I actually forgot about my troubles, and I could get drunk with a group of enthusiastic and bold men this time, and I have no regrets in this life.
"When you sing about wine, life is geometric. For example, the morning dew is bitter in the past, and the sorrow should be generous, and the worries are unforgettable. The only way to solve the worries is Du Kang!"
I held the wine bowl, and my steps were a little unsteady, but my mind was very sober, and between the impassioned, I chanted these lines of Cao Cao's poems, and now when I read it, my heart suddenly became heroic and excited.
My words immediately caused the other brothers to laugh.
The old horse had also drunk too much, and after laughing a few times, he fell asleep on the table.
"Haha, old horse, you lost the wine!"
I pointed at the old horse and laughed, and I said, well, I'm still very good at bottle wine.
The self inflated for a while, nodded slightly to the proprietress and said:
"Boss, I've got all the money for today's drink, and those silver coins are ...... It's enough, it's not enough, I'll put that horse on you, you can take it to the horse market and exchange it for wine money!"
As I spoke, I had a wine hiccups, and it seemed that I was also drunk, and if I had a few more bowls, I would probably lie down.
"Enough, enough, the big guy is so happy, and it is also a blessing for the little brother, how dare we ask for the little brother's horse again, if the word goes out, the big guy has to say that my boss lady is not righteous, right, haha." ”
"Yes, yes. ”
When the proprietress said this, the men around her all followed suit, so it was not lively.
I was so happy that I couldn't close my mouth, and I looked out in a trance, and I didn't know what time it was, and the rain outside seemed to be about to stop, and I realized that I had something very important to do.
dragged his wobbly body, took the oil-paper umbrella on the table in his hand, and shouted:
"Big guy, have fun, little brother, I have to go back quickly, otherwise my brother-in-law, brother-in-law and sister-in-law will be angry. ”
When one of the brothers heard this, he burst out laughing and said:
"Haha, I was afraid of my wife. ”
"You also said something else, aren't you also very afraid of the dominatrix at home? ”
"Go, I want you to have a lot of trouble!"
"Haha!"
......
I laughed and walked out of the liquor store by the door and window, leaned over to my own horse, and hugged the horse by the neck so that I would not fall.
It's over, it's over, I'm sure I can't go back to see the princess, and if she does, she'll be angry.
Holding the horse's neck tightly, I rubbed the horse's mane, as if I was holding my daughter-in-law, and whispered drunk words in the horse's ear:
"Daughter-in-law, daughter-in-law, I miss you so much, I want to see you so much. Horse, horse, can you take me to her? Take me to her......"
After relieving Ma Jiang, I finally turned over and got on the horse, and after the whole person lay on the horse's back, I was drunk and fainted, and I didn't know anything!
The proprietress of the wine shop looked up and saw that the young man seemed to be drunk on horseback, although the old horse knew the way, but he couldn't help but be a little worried about the safety of the young man, and was thinking that he should leave the young man in the wine shop for the night, and when he woke up, send someone to send the young man back.
As soon as I walked to the door, I looked at a handsome little man dressed up, walked over quickly and took the young man's horse's head, and the young master and the young master shouted, maybe it is the family in the young man's house.
The proprietress looked at the little guy suspiciously, but the little guy didn't avoid looking, she also looked at the proprietress and nodded her head and smiled and thanked the proprietress, bowed, and said:
"Thank you boss lady for taking care of my son-in-law!"
The proprietress saw that this little guy looked delicate, and he was also gentle and polite to people, and he did not have the wealth and arrogance of the eyes above the top, and he really matched the young man's temperament, so she felt a little relieved, and responded with a smile:
"In this case, Brother Lao will bring your son-in-law back to the house safely. ”
"Hey, wake up. ”
The little guy responded with a smile, bowed slightly to the proprietress in return, and then cautiously came over the horse's head, and slowly left the wine shop under the direct gaze of the proprietress.
This little guy is none other than Chen Xiaoyu, who came to pick up the horse master.
When she received a report from her subordinates, she said that the master of the horse was actually dressed in official clothes, appeared in a wine shop, and mixed with some servant men, drinking and having fun, listening to it, she felt that one head and two were big.
