Chapter 19: Love at First Sight
The group walked into the main hall of the Linghou Mansion with a smile and a smile.
As soon as Twilight Tianxue stepped into the door of Linghou Mansion, she called Uncle Xiao sweetly.
When Ling Hougu, who was on the main seat, saw Xiao Man and Twilight Tianxue walking in hand in hand, his face was instantly full of smiles.
Ling Hougu narrowed his eyes: "I heard the guards say, you entered the city early this morning, why did it take so long to come in? Why, the two little sisters haven't seen each other for a long time, and they have whispers?"
Xiao Man looked up at his father on the throne with a smile: "What kind of whispering, Xue'er doesn't stay for a day or two and leave, even if we really have whispers, we are not in a hurry to say it!"
Ling Hougu laughed: "How is your father lately?"
Twilight Tianxue respectfully saluted Ling Hou, and then stood up again: "Father is very good, and he has always been thinking about you. A few days ago, I was going to come with me, but as a result, the Son of Heaven issued a battle order, and I am afraid that there will be another war recently, so I am very busy. ”
Ling Hougu took a sip of tea and raised his eyes: "Fight again?"
Twilight Tianxue's small mouth pouted: "Anyway, I asked my father to keep me to go to the battlefield with him, but he refused to say anything this time." ”
Ling Hougu raised his eyebrows: "Go to the battlefield? What kind of battlefield does a girl go to?"
Xue'er took a few steps forward: "Who stipulates that women can't go to the battlefield?" Uncle Xiao, don't say it, I'm really different from other people's girls, I like to fight and shoot arrows." ”
Xiao Chuan, who was standing on the side, whispered to Twilight Tianxue: "Xue'er, Xue'er, I'm good at archery! Find me, I'll teach you!"
Twilight Tianxue didn't hear it, but Xiao Chuan received a roll of the eyes from Xiao Man on the side.
Ling Hougu smiled and leaned back: "I'm afraid that your father will listen to this, but it should be happy." ”
Twilight tilted her head: "How do you know? My father never stopped me from wielding a knife and a gun, but it is not allowed to actually fight. ”
"How do I know? I grew up playing with your father. What kind of personality is he? I guess he knows better than you. When we were both young, your father liked to fight and kill, and when he passed by someone's yard, he saw a dog in someone's yard, and he could also talk to his son for a long time. Compared to him, I'm lazy and reluctant to do it. ”
"That shows that Uncle Xiao is smart, unlike my father, who can only use force. ”
Ling Hougu smiled: "I have heard over the years that your father has become more and more accomplished in his military exploits. Recently, I guess I've been promoted to an official position again, right?"
"Yes, I've been promoted. However, my father didn't seem to care about this official position. It seems to me that he gives my father the same office as he does. Just like now, there are so many generals and soldiers under him, and they have to be in command in person. He said that if he does not go to the battlefield in person, he has no bottom in his heart. Moreover, I still like to fight for others. ”
Ling Hougu stood up and went down a few steps: "Uneven?"
Twilight Tianxue glared: "Mm-hmm, it's uneven." I always said that he was worried about his life, and he had an argument about the soldiers hanging around in the barracks, and he happened to run into them, and he had to go and break them up. Make the thief official. My mother told him how many times, but she just wouldn't listen. Now it's a good thing, the soldiers are one by one, and there is no entertainment left, and I am afraid that my father will come out of nowhere, and then go up and down the line. ”
"Hahahaha~ He's really, hasn't changed at all. When he was a child, he liked to go wherever there was excitement. Our two families are world friends, and the house is still close, I follow him every day, and someone bullies me, and your father will block it for me. Seriously, right now, I'm not as bold as he is. Don't look at me, I have killed countless enemies over the years, and I have won a lot of battles, but in terms of heroism, I am definitely not half a star behind your father. I have seen so many brave generals, but your father, Wang Du Shixiong, has always been the warrior I admire the most in military affairs. ”
Twilight Snow put her hands on her waist: "Twilight Snow thanked Uncle Xiao for his praise on behalf of his father." ”
Ling Hougu turned his head: "Thank you, do you think that Uncle Xiao is a little girl who is old and praises your father here? haha~ Speaking of which, I have been here for so long, and I haven't seen your father for a long time. I still remember the last time I saw him, when I was young, and now, I have a beard. It's really unforgiving!"
At this time, Ling Hougu, like most people, always does not hesitate to think of the passage of time when facing the children of close relatives and childhood friends.
He put his hands behind his back and looked at a certain point in the distance outside Ling Hougu's mansion.
Perhaps, the place where the eyes gathered at that point, whether it was a certain cloud, or a certain brick and tile, all had the memories of him and Twilight Tianxue's father from childhood to adulthood.
It is also the testimony of their enthusiastic youth.
It's just that it's all gone.
Ling Hougu suddenly turned around: "This time, come and stay stunned and accompany Xiao Man." This girl is choking enough in this house. In this place of Xifan, bandits have been rampant in recent years, and there are no new tricks, and they fight and kill all day long. As it stands, I'm not worried about letting her stay too far away from me. I'm just such a daughter, and your father is also yourself, so what's the difference between you two and your own sisters?"
Xiao Man looked at Twilight Tianxue beside him with a smile: "How stupid, your father won't call you, don't go back." Twilight nodded with a smile.
At this time, Duan Kun came in outside the door.
"I've seen Master Hou. ”
"What's the matter?"
"Master Hou, Doctor Liu has returned home. ”
Ling Hougu paced back and forth in the house: "Don't worry, I'll talk about it tomorrow." ”
On this day, Duan Kun was wearing a silver-white armor.
When Twilight Snow turned around, the sunlight was reflected on a piece of armor on her chest, and the light in turn pierced Twilight Snow so hard that she didn't dare to open her eyes!
Later, Twilight Tianxue wrote in a letter to Duan Kun:
I've seen the snow in winter,
I have seen the moon of a summer night;
I've seen the stars shining at one end of the Milky Way,
I've seen the years, tossing and turning.
But I had never seen such a dazzling light, and it pierced my heart for just a moment.
Yes, the twilight snow of that moment, loved.
From the moment Duan Kun entered the mansion of the Linghou Mansion, Twilight Tianxue's eyes never moved away from this man's body.
Xiao Man on the side tugged on the sleeve of Twilight Tianxue: "Don't you, you also think this person is weird?"
Twilight turned her head suspiciously, "Weird?"
"Duan Kun! Everyone in the house calls him Kun Shao! My father is Wang Yizi! I want to follow others to call him that, but he is not happy, saying that I am neither big nor small. He's a good person, but there's a problem, he's never close to women! You say, he's not ugly, and there's a bunch of women chattering behind him wherever he goes. The boss is not small, just hanging around my father!" Xiao Man said with disdainful pouting.
"Heh~ Duan Kun, a person who does big things! Do you think that people are willing to see you like a little child? Forget it, Xue'er has been bumpy all the way, go and rest. ”
The two were just about to leave, but when they turned around and saw Linglan who had been standing at the door, Twilight Tianxue suddenly remembered. She turned to Ling Hougu and said, "Uncle Xiao, I met this girl on the road. It should have been a misfortune. Can I just clean up for her? And then give her something to eat and let her go?"
Ling Hougu was just about to sit down, but he looked up at the ragged girl standing outside the door, and nodded: "Go ahead." ”
As soon as the words fell, Linglan suddenly knelt outside the door of the mansion: "Ask the adults to take in the little girl! Ask the adults to take in the little girl! The little girl really has no place to go, the house has just been robbed by bandits, and her father and mother are gone." ”
Linglan said, and lowered her head and cried.
Before Ling Hougu could express his position, Xiao Man turned around: "Father, look, she is pitiful." Otherwise, take her and eat more. ”
Ling Hou Gu smiled: "Okay." ”
"Uncle Xiao, since I picked her up halfway, I am also in love. And I've always liked to bring too many servants, and this time, I only brought two personal ones. Otherwise, let her follow me. ”
"Good. Kindness is a good thing. Look, at the same age, Xiao Man, how much happier are you than the girl outside the door? Don't be in the midst of blessings and don't know how to be blessed, if you have that kung fu, read more! Xue'er, this time I can give you a task, and I will keep an eye on her learning! Day by day, I will know how to play!"
After Xiao Man turned around and made a grimace at his father on the couch, the group turned around and left.
