Chapter 164: Seeking Retribution
Compared with Zhang Qifeng's anger, Su Yiqing was indifferent, and said: "That's good, please forgive the little woman's rudeness for a while, and spend the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain, my name is Su Yiqing, IKEA and Yiroom, sunny on a sunny day, please write my name clearly when the general asks for merit." β
Zhang Qifeng was suddenly a little dumbfounded, in fact, there were some things that he could not decide.
Su Yiqing smiled: "General Zhang, I am not a person who wants money and does not want to die, I know what can be taken and what cannot be not, this time I am also offering a plan for the people in the city, not for the general personally, the general does not owe me any favors, there is no need to be ashamed, if there is no general desperate resistance, my strategy will not succeed." β
"I also once went on a southern expedition, following General Zhao's team. Zhang Qifeng suddenly came up with such a sentence.
Su Yiqing was slightly stunned and then smiled: "You really found out my identity." β
"I'm not very sure, if you didn't declare your name, girl, it would be a suspicion. Zhang Qifeng had a little apology on his face.
Su Yiqing said: "But this kind of suspicion can kill people, as early as when I helped you contact Jing Gang, you had this kind of suspicion, before you left me maybe just wanted someone to connect with the bandits, then it was not so simple after that." β
"How so?" Zhang Qifeng raised his eyebrows and spread his hands, "I don't deny what you said, I just want to know where the flaws are." β
"Convenient for next improvement?" Su Yiqing said sarcastically.
Zhang Qifeng shrugged, the expression on his face was very different from usual, just like an ordinary casual young man, without the majesty of a general.
Su Yiqing said: "I'm just pushing myself and others, if I am in the position of a general, I will definitely investigate Jing Gang's qiΔ, and I may be able to use it when negotiating, the hijacking case back then must have been a sensation, and it is easy to connect, and Jing Gang's background is not very complicated." There are very few women who are entangled with him, maybe I am the only one, and with a suspicious target, it is not difficult to sit down. In view of my relationship with the prince of the Great Zhou, I believe that the general will have a hard time making a decision, but the general finally let me go when the city is about to be broken, which makes me grateful. β
"Miss Su is really smart and icy, no wonder General Zhao is so fond of it. Zhang Qifeng said slowly: "The male sign back then was very hard, the land was damp and hot and full of miasma, mosquitoes were about the same size as flies, pythons had a waist so thick, they could swallow a person alive, and the water was bitter." Occasionally, on armistice nights, the soldiers would gather to barbecue meat, drink and sing, and in retrospect, it was the only fond memory of those hard years...... β
Su Yiqing frowned slightly, and said, "I'm sorry...... Interrupt the general your Yaxing. I don't have anything to do with the Zhao family anymore. But I still don't want anyone to mention some of the past, if the general wants to talk about the courage of the year, I believe he can find a more competent audience than me. β
"The girl who has something to do with the girl doesn't want to hear it?" Zhang Qifeng said unexpectedly, "Don't you want to know how General Zhao thought of this marriage back then?"
Su Yiqing shook her head: "I already have an opinion in my heart, this is the best conclusion, and I don't want to change this conclusion." The truth of this kind of thing is actually not important, I may not even have a chance to meet him in the future, why bother to know the things that can confuse me by an orangutan? What's more, these are probably just one-sided words, my life is bad enough, and now I just want to live a peaceful life, and I don't want to get involved in right and wrong. β
"Forgive me for taking the liberty of asking. If the girl just wants to live in peace, why would she choose to live here? This is not a peaceful place. When Zhang Qifeng said this, his eyes kept staring at Su Yiqing's face.
Su Yiqing was silent for a while, and said helplessly: "Okay, you're right, so what? I don't care about General Zhao's past. Can't you care about anything else? Is this related to you, General, or do you think I'm a spy sent by someone, General? Please, for the sake of my great achievements, if you can't dispel your suspicions, let me go, because we've never met before, the credit for this great victory is all General Zhang, you alone, okay?"
"As I said, I'm not the kind of person who fakes the credit of others. Zhang Qifeng's face stiffened again.
"So what do you want? What do you want to say, what do you want to say, tell your purpose?" Su Yiqing became agitated and said, "While you admit that I have merit, you are digging my ** to stimulate me? Don't you want to prove that I am a villain with a despicable character, and the merits can be written off?"
Zhang Qifeng said: "I just want to help you, many people are in trouble sometimes, they don't trust anyone, and they don't want to ask anyone for help." β
"Oh, help me, how can you make a qiΔ do it again?" Su Yiqing sneered, "Even if King Ping can be a dragon chair, it is impossible to do it all over again." β
"Miss Su, please be cautious. Zhang Qifeng's face changed first, and then he said slowly: "Nothing in this world is absolutely impossible, and there is actually just a holy decree between the girl and General Zhao." β
Su Yiqing said: "Impossible, I don't say three chastity and nine martyrs, but it is also an ordinary daughter's family, if I want nothing to happen, if nothing happens, I will remarry General Zhao again, that is impossible." It's not fair to him, and I don't want to live under the dictation of others. β
Zhang Qifeng said: "As long as the girl and General Zhao really love each other, these are not unpleasant, General Zhao's family has a simple population, and General Zhao's past makes him not have a position to interfere too much in General Zhao's family affairs, and General Zhao is still alone all these years can show that he is still unwavering towards the girl." β
"But I'm not to him. Su Yiqing said calmly.
Zhang Qifeng was stunned again.
"It's impossible to help the general lobby General Zhao, but......" Su Yiqing said lightly, "Maybe I can help a little bit in other small things, for the sake of the people of the world." β
"Thank you, girl. Zhang Qifeng is still very happy.
At the end, Su Yiqing took out the waist card she got from the dead soldier and said, "Can the general recognize this waist card?"
Zhang Qifeng picked it up and took a closer look, and immediately said in surprise: "This is the token of the enemy commander Geng Zhong, where did the girl get it?"
Su Yiqing said lightly: "On the way we came, we encountered an attack by a general wearing armor, and we got it from him, so let's ask Deputy General Pang to tell me about the details." β
Zhang Qifeng nodded and let Pang Jin and Sixi come in.
In front of Su Yiqing and Sixi, Pang Jin told Zhang Qifeng about the matter in 1510.
Zhang Qifeng listened. There was a little entanglement on his face, and when he turned his head, he was faced with Su Yiqing's slightly mocking gaze, as if to say. You must want to be greedy again, right?
At this time, Pang Jin said: "Thank you Sixi girl for saving her life, Pang Jin is grateful, as long as the girl can use the place of the last general in the future, although it is said, Pang Jin will definitely repay him with broken bones and liver and brains." β
Sixi blushed, and he didn't know what to say for a while.
Su Yiqing said: "Why bother in the future? Vice General Pang can repay now." β
"Girl, please?" Pang Jin looked obliged.
Su Yiqing said lightly: "Can Vice General Pang marry?"
"Not yet. β
"Have you ever been engaged?"
"I booked, but before the woman could pass the door, she died of illness. Pang Jin's face was a little gloomy.
"I'm sorry. Su Yiqing said that she was sorry, but there was no apology on her face.
Zhang Qifeng vaguely guessed what Su Yiqing wanted to say. looked at Pang Jin expressionlessly.
Su Yiqing said again: "That Vice General Pang has a sweetheart now, please tell the truth?"
"Nope. Pang Jin said very simply.
"In that case, Vice General Pang will marry our Sixi, this is easier than smitten liver and brains or something, right? It's a time when someone needs to take care of you. Su Yiqing's fluttering words shocked Pang Jin and stunned the whole person.
"Sister Qiao......" Sixi's cheeks were crimson, and his eyes didn't dare to look at Pang Jin.
Su Yiqing spoke to Pang Jin, but her eyes were looking at Zhang Qifeng.
"It happened suddenly, Vice General Pang can think about it as much as possible, and we will go. Su Yiqing said, and took Sixi's hand and walked out of the door.
"Sister Qiao. How can you?" After walking a little farther, Sixi said with a crimson face and a stomp foot.
"Don't say you don't look down on Vice General Pang. Su Yiqing looked at Sixi with a smile, soldiers are always admirable, and Sixi looked at Pang Jin with his eyes on the road.
"But sister, you're like this. It seems to be forcing someone to marry me. "Sixi is still a simple girl's family after all, and I don't think it's good to do this.
"If it weren't for you, he would have fallen to the ground today, and you killed someone for him, as you said before. After all, you are a girl's family, your hands are stained with blood, and if a man dares to marry you in the future, he should be responsible. Su Yiqing said softly, "The person you killed is the enemy general, and the credit is very great, but a girl's family, it's not good to give you any reward, I'm afraid that this credit will fall on Vice General Pang alone, if you are a husband and wife, naturally don't care so much, if not, this matter is very difficult." β
Sixi still thinks this is not good.
Su Yiqing said: "Sixi, in this world, only thick-skinned can live, this Pang Jin is also from a peasant family, even if he is now in the position of deputy general, he is a good match with you, and his living habits are similar, marry him, and your life will be guaranteed in the future." β
"But, it seems that he was forced to marry me, will he be nice to me?" Sixi tugged at the corner of his clothes and whispered.
"Yes, this man is not a great traitor, and I will also ask that he not take a concubine unless you have nothing to do in your thirties. Su Yiqing added in her heart, at least on the surface, he will be very good to you, when you have a child, you can live with the child, a woman in this life, so that it is complete, and a good life needs to be managed.
Sixi is still hesitating.
Su Yiqing sighed: "Sixi, why don't I want to give you another broad road, but now that the war has just passed, a lot of young adults have died, orphans and widows everywhere, there are more women and fewer men, a girl like you, it is not easy to find a sincere person to marry, there is an opportunity in front of me, and I can't think of what kind of person you can marry, even if you have a lot of money, you can't keep it alone, most of the people who are willing to marry you are for money, so it is not much different from marrying Pang Jin, of course, this is your lifelong event, In the end, you still need to decide for yourself, if you really don't want to, as I told you before, I will give you a sum of money, and then ask someone to pay attention to the whereabouts of your father and brother, and then the fate between us will be understood. β
"Sister Qiao, are you leaving?" Sixi was flustered in his heart, and he couldn't make up his mind, but when he finally heard that Su Yiqing was leaving, he had a letter.
Su Yiqing said: "It's just two people who were trapped in the city because of the war, I still have to leave after all, Sixi, you have to think clearly."
Overnight. Sixi was so anxious that he didn't know what to say.
"If you can't decide, why don't you leave it to heaven?" Su Yiqing mentioned yì again.
"How do you leave it to God?" Sixi wondered.
Su Yiqing picked up a tile on the ground casually and said, "Throw it into the sky." The falling fragments are not married alone, but they are married separately, and they are married as simple as that. β
While Su Yiqing was discussing with Sixi, Zhang Qifeng and Pang Jin watched their actions through the window.
After a while, Pang Jin said, "General, what should I do?"
Zhang Qifeng smiled bitterly: "This is your life's event, even as a general, I have no right to interfere with your decision, you can think about it yourself." β
Pang Jin lowered his head and thought, he was not very impressed by Sixi. Although I had a little contact with this girl before, I almost didn't feel anything, just a passerby, but I was more impressed by that Miss Su, and I only felt that this Miss Su was very special. This kind of special is not only about appearance, after all, he has seen a lot of beautiful girls, everyone has beautiful little jasper, and there are all kinds of dusty women, and there are not a few who are better than Miss Su in appearance.
It's just that this Miss Su is special, if you want to say anything special, you can only say it. This Su girl has a special temperament, like everyone's ladies, and she has more tenacity than everyone's ladies.
I heard older generals say that if they marry relatives and seek talent, people like them who are in the army must not marry the kind of delicate daughter who can't do anything. To be the kind of woman with a tough personality who can afford to carry the whole family, in case a man has any strengths and weaknesses, she can still support the whole family and take care of her parents and children. It won't be easy to run away with people.
In the past, there were many soldiers who suffered such losses, born with mud legs, made a little military merit, and had some money, they married the kind of mother-in-law who would only enjoy, and the better ones were just a few dollars earned back with their lives and all the fat powder, almost, as soon as the news of the soldier's death was transmitted back, the bride immediately rolled up the family wealth and remarried others.
The veterans sighed, and they don't blame those women, they are all born with mud legs, they are vulgar, and those talented people can't be compared, what do the delicate little ladies marry them for? Don't you just want money to live a good life? You want to look like others, people want your money, take what they need, no one blames anyone, you really want to live a down-to-earth life, marry a country yellow-faced woman, no matter how poor you can't beat it away.
Of course, not all of us are like this, unless we are also good-looking and can make other ladies fall in love, otherwise it is really difficult to live a good life.
Pang Jin swore at that time that he would not be in a hurry to do family affairs, he would rather lack than abuse, and if he wanted to become famous, he would pick and choose again.
If he said that he wanted to marry Miss Su, he would definitely agree without saying a word, even if this Miss Su was a widow, it was not that he had any thoughts about Miss Su, but he secretly thought that the daughter-in-law he married in the future must have Miss Su's appearance, even if his ability is half of it, although Miss Su's temperament is also a little stronger, but this is just like the older generation said, can support a family, what is the difference between these four joys and the eldest girl and the second girl in their village?
However, after coming into contact with General Zhang's eyes, Pang Jin gritted his teeth and said, "General, Miss Sixi has a life-saving grace for me, and I am willing to take care of her for the rest of my life." β
Zhang Qifeng reminded: "You have to think about it, this is a lifelong thing, you can't regret it, when the time comes, the general will be the main marriage, and many soldiers will be the witness, but you can't give up or marry a new love." β
Pang Jin understands that he has no right to choose, if he is unwilling to take on this responsibility this time, then in the mind of General Zhang, he is not a reliable person, what he just said, it has become a joke to be able to repay Sixi with his heart, as a deputy general, he has lost the trust of Shangguan, and he will not have any future in the future.
Recognizing this, Pang Jin nodded firmly.
Pang Jin's reaction suddenly made a thought flash in Zhang Qifeng's mind, is this Miss Su dissatisfied with Sixi? Otherwise, why would you propose such a marriage?
If it is really the four preferences, it means that she thinks that such a family affair is a good thing, is it also understandable that she is not disgusted with such a family affair, and at the same time, it also means that she is not as she thinks, and she has too strong an aversion to the royal marriage?
A woman's heart is really more unpredictable than the enemy on the battlefield.
One qiΔ as Su Yiqing expected.
Pang Jin finally agreed to this family affair, and the result of Sixi losing tiles was also a pair, and the family affair was finalized.
Sixi's father and brother couldn't find it for a while, and in order to show his sincerity, Pang Jin didn't delay, and decided to hold a simple wedding.
Sixi has no elders, and some trivial matters are handled by Su Yiqing and the eldest lady in the army, after the war. The city of Yunzhou was in a mess and lacked materials, although after the great victory, the imperial court sent a lot of rewards. But many of them have been replaced with things that are used such as food.
For a while, even the big red satin of the wedding dress was not enough, and finally, when the imperial court rewarded it, the wedding dress cut from the red cloth that wrapped the object, the big red sedan chair is not to be thought, and the soldiers who know carpenters use wood to make a sedan chair temporarily, cover it with green cloth, and tie a red cloth on the top is a big red sedan chair.
Su Yiqing took out a few pieces of jewelry, plus the ones given by Zhang Qifeng. A colleague also made up a little bit, so it was a dowry, that is, the marriage book and the like were done very carefully, Zhang Qifeng presided over the marriage, and another deputy general's wife was the matchmaker. It is absolutely irreversible.
When greeting relatives, it is quite majestic, all the majestic soldiers carry the sedan chair, and there is no suona blown away by the relatives, so they use horns instead, and the war drums are used as gongs and drums, giving people a very shocking feeling.
Before Sixi got on the sedan chair, tears rippled to say goodbye to Su Yiqing. It's really like a sister's marriage.
When he was happy with the wine, Su Yiqing only barely showed his face.
And then I went back.
This kind of festive day is more likely to evoke her sad past.
"Miss Su, do you have something on your mind?" When Su Yiqing was blowing the wind outside, Zhang Qifeng didn't know when to approach, and asked softly.
Su Yiqing turned her head and said lightly: "The general should be drinking inside." β
"I'm a general after all, I'm here. Everyone didn't drink happily, so they simply hid out. Zhang Qifeng explained with a smile.
"Then the general should also avoid suspicion, or does the general think that a woman like me doesn't really need a reputation and doesn't care about offense?" Su Yiqing forgot to glance at it. The figure that occasionally flashed by, "That day, when the gossip between me and the general spread all over the barracks, what should the general do?"
"If there really is such a day, why should I marry a girl?" Zhang Qifeng then said, "Of course, there is Miss Su in front of you, you are willing." β
Su Yiqing lowered her face coldly: "General Zhang, such a joke is not funny. β
"I'm sorry, but Miss Su, what I'm saying is the truth, and if nothing else, it is also a victory to be able to get what the opponent can't get. Zhang Qifeng said a little lonely, "I admire General Zhao, we are friends, but also enemies, maybe one day on the battlefield will meet, that day I said did not finish, the night before the decisive battle of the Southern Expedition, I chatted with General Zhao, entrusted each other's hearts, we once agreed, if tomorrow, the other party sacrificed, to take care of each other's wife and child, we are not married, but I am the only son in the family, there are elderly parents, General Zhao promised that if I have something, he will be my parents are his parents, and the only requirement for me, is to take care of his fiancΓ©e who has not been through the door, this kind of care is not in food, clothing, housing and transportation, only need to take care of it secretly, and lend a hand when the girl is in danger, he said that the girl is very smart, unless she is framed by the gangsters, otherwise she will be able to live well. β
"That's just because he feels he owes me. Su Yiqing sighed.
Zhang Qifeng also sighed immediately, "I was very envious at the time, children like us from a family are rarely able to marry the woman they like, at that time, General Zhao's demeanor infected me, I secretly swore that if I marry one day, I must also go to a woman with both talent and appearance, otherwise I will lose him forever in this life...... To say something from the heart that I would never dare to say to people on weekdays, when I learned that General Zhao was given to marry the lord of the Great Zhou, I don't know why I was relieved. β
Su Yiqing said: "Perfect people will always put pressure on others, in fact, there is no perfect person in this world at all, people are perfect only if they live in fantasy, and love is the same." β
Zhang Qifeng said: "Later, I pondered for a long time, and I felt that General Zhao might be exaggerating, he was not so fond of his fiancΓ©e, and his fiancΓ©e was not as perfect as he said...... It wasn't until many years later, when I met you, Miss Su, that I knew that the girl was far more intelligent than General Zhao described, which made the man embarrassed. β
