Zheng Zhixun's official title has a national history, and Zheng Zhiyuan's marriage and concubine have a family tree.

When Zheng Sui was six years old, when she was writing enlightenment, she heard the fifth brother say this, the fifth brother was only ten years old at the time, until now, she still remembers that when the fifth brother said this, he held his head high, looked up, and the pride in his eyes, and the expression was filled with incomparable pride.

It made her remember this sentence firmly.

Two years later, the fifth brother Zheng Wei was only twelve years old, a "Pingcheng Fu", the name of the Great Yanjing Division Pingcheng, at that time, it coincided with the Southern Chu Shangshu order Xie Yu to envoy Pingcheng, after reading this Fu, he was shocked and praised: I don't mean that there is such a genius in the north, and the article does not lose Jiangzuo.

Bring it to Nanchu and make Jiankang expensive.

Since then, the five brothers have become famous all over the world, and it has also made Shilin have an elegant saying: Cui Xingxian was the first to quit the gift, and then to Zheng Wulang.

Cui Xingxian, that is, Cui Yan, the word Xingxian, Zheng Sui's maternal uncle, born in Boling Cui's family, dabbled in scripture and history, quite literate, famous for his good words, and now in the Xianbei Murong Dynasty established by the Yan court as a doctor of Guozixue.

Zheng Wulang, Zheng Sui's fifth brother Zheng Wei, from the Zheng family branch of Xingyang, ranks fifth in the big house, rarely learned, and has a good history.

After Zheng Sui lost her mother at the age of two, because her great-grandmother was old and her grandmother was sick all the year round, her grandmother took pity on her and her five brothers when they were young, so she went to Xingyang in person and took her and her five brothers to Pingcheng.

Because of this, the fifth brother was greatly influenced by his uncle, and he was especially happy to resign.

In addition to the fifth brother, Zheng Sui also has two brothers of the same mother, compared with the five brothers who grew up together, Zheng Sui is very unfamiliar with the eldest brother Zheng Jing, from now, the last time she saw the eldest brother Zheng Jing, it was also three years ago, at that time, Shilin's cousin got married, and the eldest brother came to Pingcheng to participate in the wedding.

At that time, when the eldest brother saw her, he squatted down and stretched out his hands to hug her, but she was unwilling, turned her head, did not walk over, or the fifth brother on the side pulled her over, and then the eldest brother smiled and rubbed her hair, "Xixi has grown up, and I don't need to be hugged by my brother anymore." ”

The eldest brother was ten years older than her, and held her firmly in his arms, and when he stood up, Zheng Sui found that the eldest brother was very tall, so she had to hurriedly grab the eldest brother's clothes, and her heart was hung up, until after the eldest brother put her on the kang after entering the house, she breathed a sigh of relief, however, the eldest brother's eyes looked at her for a moment, but he was stunned and said: "Xixi looks more and more like A-Niang." ”

She also heard her grandmother say this occasionally.

But her impression of A-Niang is all based on the painting of the ancestral Xuanhua Garden outside Pingcheng, every year on the sacrifice day, she and the five brothers will go over to the beautiful picture on the wall, kowtow in front of the incense candle on the green case.

As for the second brother Zheng Lun, there is only one name in Zheng Sui's mind, compared to the eldest brother who has been to Pingcheng once, the second brother has never been to it once, and even in the grandfather's house, the grandmother will often mention the eldest brother, but never mention the second brother, and the father sent someone to Pingcheng at four o'clock, and the attached letter always mentions the eldest brother's recent progress, or where he went to study and other circumstances, but he does not mention the second brother.

And the reason why Zheng Sui knows these things is because after she learned hundreds of words with her grandmother, she sneaked into her grandfather's study with the fifth brother several times, opened the letter, read the letter and listened to what the fifth brother said.

This puzzled her and her fifth brother, she had asked her grandmother, and she now remembered that her grandmother, who had always been kind to her, suddenly changed her face, her face was dark and gloomy, and her eyes were like a deep pool, a little colder than the cold wind on the outskirts of Pingcheng in winter.

So, since then, in front of her grandmother, she didn't dare to mention the word second brother again.

In August last year, after the eldest brother got married, his father asked his aunt to bring a handwritten letter back to Pingcheng to his grandfather, wanting to take her and the fifth brother back to Xingyang.

Since Yongjia crossed to the south, the former dynasty regime moved from Luoyang south to Jiankang, more than 100 years, the Central Plains was chaotic, the war was endless, all ethnic groups and heroes fought their own expeditions, often corpses were all over the field, bleeding and drifting, extremely unstable, and Xingyang to Pingcheng was far away, and Xingyang had just been placed under the control of Dayan, and there were also the Great Xia regime established by the Han Biqiu clan and the Great Zhao regime established by the Shi clan of the Qian, as well as the Great Liang regime in the west were eyeing Luoyang, and even including the Nanchu Xiao regime in the south, they had never given up the attack on Luoyang。

And back to Xingyang, you must pass through Luoyang.

My grandfather used this as an excuse to refuse his father's request to take her and her fifth brother back to Zheng's house in Xingyang.

It's just that I didn't expect that only half a year later, my grandfather and uncle wanted to send her and her fifth brother back to the Zheng family in Xingyang, and even before leaving, my grandmother specially told her: The eldest sister-in-law is like a mother, the sister-in-law is from the Li family in Longxi, and the family education style is good, so let her be close to the sister-in-law after returning to the Zheng family.

So, when Pingcheng was still in the cold wind and Xiao Xiao Binghe was not open, and even when she didn't receive a reply from her father from Xingyang, she and her fifth brother set off, and sent five hundred guards to follow and escort her.

Yesterday evening, outside Gaoping City, the fierce battle between the guards and the Qianhu ended with the fifth brother accepting Lu Heng to go to Xiangguo.

Fighting and killing stopped.

Of the 500 guards, there were less than 200 left, and more than 300 were killed in battle.

Zheng Sui has been sitting in the carriage, let the nurse and concubine firmly hold in her arms, although she did not see the scene in person, but the smell of blood lingering on the tip of the nose, but has never retreated, until this morning, as soon as she eats, she vomits, and finally even the yellow bile water vomits out, and the companion concubine gave up persuading her to eat.

The fifth brother Zheng Wei agreed to follow Lu Heng to Xiangguo, the capital of Shizhao, and one of the conditions was to let the remaining guards escort her back to Zheng's house in Xingyang.

He camped outside the city overnight, and until Zheng Sui left, the gates of Gaoping City were always closed.

Leaving Gaoping and continuing south, the carriage traveled very slowly.

Uncle An is very familiar with the terrain in this area, and the fifth brother instructed Uncle An, so that Uncle An pretended to go south to Xingyang, and when he got out of Gaoping, he did not take the official road, but chose another path, and turned north to Shangdang, went to Shangdang to find Huanyu, and Huanyu would definitely send a sergeant to escort her back to Xingyang.

Lu Heng didn't plan to let Zheng Sui go back to Xingyang, but Zheng Wei insisted, and said: "Since you came for me, why do you want to be a child." ”

The elder brother said that she was a child, and he had forgotten about it, and he was only fourteen years old, and he didn't even have a word yet.

But he had to go to the camp alone.

For these, Zheng Sui knew that she didn't have a beak, she didn't drag down her brother is the biggest help, there are still hundreds of miles to Xingyang, even if the Zheng family has 100,000 people, it is difficult to solve the difficulties in front of them.

Lu Heng came prepared, bringing thousands of soldiers from the Qianghu.

My grandfather and uncle never expected that the original itinerary would be due to Lu Heng's defection.

Maybe it's like what Brother said: Karma Hu has something to ask for, and he has no worries about his life for the time being.

When Uncle An asked the carriage to turn north, the whole journey began to speed up, and the carriage drove all the way.

Although he obeyed the arrangement of the fifth brother, Zheng Sui always had a slight apprehension in his heart, and he didn't understand how the fifth brother could believe in Huan Yu so much, if he remembered correctly, he and Huan Yu met for the first time the day before yesterday, Zheng Sui's mind immediately appeared that day, the scene when the fifth brother saw Huan Yu for the first time.
