Chapter 171: Reunion after the catastrophe
Suddenly, Qiyun's chest rolled and he couldn't stop the tears from pouring up. Na Lu Ying also had tears in her eyes, she hugged Qiyun and said in surprise: "I'm not dreaming." Is it really the county lord? ”
Qiyun picked up Lu Ying's face, helped her gently wipe the dust and blood on her face, revealing a delicate and familiar face, it turned out to be really Lu Ying, Qiyun hugged her tightly and cried: "Lu Ying, Lu Ying, you haven't died all these years, you are still alive, it's great." ”
Lu Ying cried and laughed: "I didn't die, just to wait for the county lord to rescue me from the demon cave one day." The day I had finally waited for. ”
Tuoba Tao next to him watched them crying and hugged each other, and comforted: "Yun'er, Lu Ying, don't cry, beware of crying and breaking your body." Lu Ying, tell me, what's going on? ”
Lu Ying came to her senses at this time, and saw Tuoba Tao dressed in silver armor, knowing that his identity was noble and extraordinary, and looked at Qiyun hesitantly. Qiyun smiled and said to her: "He is the Buddha you served in Chang'an City back then. He was the emperor of the Wei state, Tuoba Tao. ”
Lu Ying pounced, knelt on the ground, kowtowed, and said: "Lu Ying has seen the emperor, long live the emperor." ”
Qiyun hurriedly helped her up, and said distressedly: "The Buddha is different from the emperor of the Xia Kingdom, benevolent and open-minded. You don't have to be so nervous. Think of him as a Buddha who is clamoring for yokan at your place. This place is not far from Tongwan City, Lu Ying, let's get out of here first, and then you slowly tell us how you came over all these years. ”
Qiyun helped Lu Ying back to the camp, and saw that her arm was scarred by a whip, oozing blood beads, so she found a cotton wool, wiped her gently, rolled up her sleeves, and couldn't help but gasp. Her arms were densely covered with scars, old and new, shocking.
Qiyun was sad for a while, and recruited a military doctor to apply white medicine to her and bandage her wounds. She said with tears in her eyes: "Lu Ying, you have suffered in the past few years. How did you end up in Tongwan City? ”
Lu Ying replied: "When Guanzhong was besieged, I was captured by the Xia soldiers and taken into the prisoner camp. Later, when Helian Bobo's class returned to Tongwan, I was also escorted to Tongwan City and sent to the hard labor division of the palace. There, doing the heaviest work, eating the least food, beating and scolding were commonplace, and many times I almost died. A few days ago, I heard that the Wei army was attacking Tongwancheng, and the Wei army was more benevolent than the Xia army. I wondered if I could take advantage of the chaos to escape from Tongwan, so I secretly disguised myself as a small soldier and escaped when the city gate changed the Xia soldiers to guard against relaxation. But they found it and chased it all the way, if you hadn't rescued me in time, I would have ......" said, crying silently.
Lu Ying wiped her tears, knelt at Qiyun's feet, and begged, "God have mercy on me, so that I can still see the county lord." Please take me in. I went from Chang'an to Tongwan in the Xia Kingdom, and I was full of wind and frost, and life was better than death. The county lord must not leave Lu Ying, Lu Ying will make you a cow and a horse, and he will follow you. ”
Qiyun helped her up and comforted her softly: "Lu Ying, don't worry, as long as I am here for a day, I will not leave you alone." You serve in my tent, and you have some simple bandages and medical skills with the military medicine, and once the war starts, there will definitely be many casualties, and you can still help when you are busy. ”
Qiyun has left Lu Ying behind since that time when he fled in Guanzhong, and he has no peace every day, and every time he thinks about it, his heart is like a knife. At this moment, Lu Ying was alive in front of her, and she secretly decided in her heart that she would do her best to protect her.
Since then, Qiyun has placed Lu Ying in a military tent with her, and has been inseparable from her every day. Tuoba Tao saw it, made fun of her for having Lu Ying, and snubbed him.
In the evening, when it was time to eat, Lu Ying seemed to be very hungry, and after eating the rice in her bowl, she looked at Qiyun with a blank eye. Qiyun was sad for a while, and gave her half of the rice in her bowl. Lu Ying finished eating, and seeing that she didn't move much, she asked, "County Lord, why don't you eat?" ”
"I see that your face is so haggard, and my shape is so bone-like, I miss you for the past few years...... It's nothing, you eat more, after eating mine, there will be no more. ”
When Lu Ying heard about it, she refused to ask for anything anymore, and asked, "Why is the county lord eating a little bit of rice in this bowl, and then there will be no more?" ”
Qiyun smiled and said, "Because our cavalry arrived in Tongwan first, the infantry and grain and grass baggage are still behind, and it will take a few days to arrive." The food and grass in the camp are almost at the bottom. So, we're going to save some food. ”
Lu Ying nodded silently and smiled: "It's okay, I can stand hungry, I haven't suffered anything in the past few years of imprisonment in Xia Kingdom." As long as you are alive, being with the county lord is better than anything else. ”
Qiyun shook her hand movingly, and the years spent in the past seemed to be in front of her again.
After putting away the dishes and chopsticks, Qiyun took out "Liutao" from the burden as usual. Lu Ying finished her work and sat next to her affectionately, "The county lord is still the same as before, and his favorite thing to do is to read books." What book are you reading? ”
Qiyun flipped the title of the book to her: "Look what kind of book this is." ”
Lu Ying smiled embarrassedly: "County Lord, have you forgotten that I can't read? You show me, they know me, I don't know them. ”
Qiyun also smiled: "This is "Liutao", which is about how to march and fight. You still refuse to read and read as you did when you were a child, how will you copy and fill in poems for Yizhen in the future? ”
They joked with each other, as if they had returned to the years when they were teenagers in Jiankang, and it seemed that nothing had changed. But in just a few years, it has been a lot of life, as if it has experienced several lifetimes of reincarnation.
Qiyun suddenly remembered Yizhen, and smiled at Lu Ying: "When this battle is over, you go back to Pingcheng with me, and you can see Yizhen." ”
"Second son, he, why is he in Wei Guoping City? He...... Are you okay? Lu Ying was a little shocked when she heard this.
Qiyun avoided the serious, sighed and said, "This matter is a long story. In short, Yoshizhen is in Pingcheng right now, and he is neither good nor good. If you return to Pingcheng, I will definitely help you fulfill your wish. As he spoke, Qiyun looked a little teasing.
An unnatural look appeared on Lu Ying's face, she lowered her head, and something seemed to flash from the corner of her eye, "Don't make fun of me, how can the second prince still want me to ......"
After a while, she raised her head as if nothing had happened: "Don't talk about it, anything can happen in a few years in troubled times, let's talk about it in the future." Lord, read to me. The girls read books like "The Female Ring" and "The Biography of the Daughters" at most, but the county lord prefers to read these history books and military books. ”
Qiyun replied with a smile: "Actually, it's not for me. The Buddha was marching and fighting, and the time was very tight, so I helped him read these books, and after reading them, I picked out the important ones and told them concisely. ”
"County Lord, you have such a deep affection for him?" Lu Ying was a little admiring and a little teasing.
