Back in Mobei, Chu Yang arranged for Yu Ruyan to live in the camp. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
"I didn't expect Huqitu to let you back so easily." Chu Yang smiled and said, "I thought that old boy was going to produce some kind of moth." ”
Yu Ruyan also said: "Yes, I didn't think of it myself. ”
Chu Yang said: "The weather has been hot recently, and this house is quite cool, so I am sorry that you live here." ”
Yu Ruyan hurriedly said: "Where is General Chu, I am just a person who is guilty of being assigned, and it stands to reason that I should also work like everyone else." But you have arranged for me to live here, how can I be wronged? ”
Chu Yang said nonchalantly: "Alas, how can Miss Ruyan do those vulgar things? ”
"Then I can't do nothing." Yu Ruyan said.
Chu Yang smiled: "It doesn't matter, here, you can do whatever you want." It's not early, so let's rest. ”
A few days later, I heard that Huqitu brought the tribe and the Taer tribe to harass the border of Qi country. The emperor of Qi sent people to negotiate with Huqitu, hoping to make peace, but returned empty-handed. In Chu Yang's description, Yu Ruyan knew that Hu Qitu ordered his subordinates to strictly prohibit burning, killing, looting, and bullying the elderly, children, and women.
After hearing this, Yu Ruyan was somewhat relieved.
"I can't imagine that those fierce Huns can show mercy to the old and weak women and children." Chu Yang said.
Yu Ruyan said: "Actually, they are not all people who kill people without blinking. ”
Chu Yang looked at Yu Ruyan in surprise and said, "Haha, I didn't expect that Miss Ruyan would also speak for the Huns." It seems that you don't care about what happened to you last time. ”
Yu Ruyan chuckled lightly and said, "There's nothing to worry about, in that position, everyone has a time when they can't help themselves." ”
Chu Yang smiled and nodded, Yu Ruyan saw the letter in his hand and asked, "Is it a letter from home?" ”
"It was written by the sister." Chu Yang said.
Yu Ruyan smiled and asked, "Is Sister Ling okay?" Is Lord Xiao okay too? ”
Chu Yang replied with a smile: "It's all good, the sister said in the letter that she is already happy." ”
"Really?" Yu Ruyan smiled in surprise and said, "Then I really want to congratulate General Chu, you are about to have a little nephew!" ”
Chu Yang smiled: "Thank you, I also want to write back to tell my sister, saying that you are also thinking about her, and I want to congratulate her." ”
"General Chu has a happy event in his family, and he is going to get drunk again tonight, right?" Yu Ruyan teased with a smile.
Chu Yang laughed a few times, a few days ago, he specially ordered someone to bring some flowers for Yu Ruyan from the Central Plains, and they happened to be delivered today. Chu Yang took the opportunity of being happy and took it out and gave it to Yu Ruyan.
Yu Ruyan is very happy, she has nothing to do all day, in addition to reading, she can also plant flowers now.
The days are plain and elegant, smelling the fragrance of flowers all over the house, Yu Ruyan is happy, and a trace of bitterness inevitably wells up in her heart. There are flowers, but there is no one who plants flowers and waters them with them, and admires flowers and reverses poetry.
Looking at the hibiscus flowers blooming in the house, Yu Ruyan thought of the hibiscus flowers in Jincheng thousands of miles away, and the man who was like a hibiscus.
Listening to Tang Yunluo, when the hibiscus flowers bloom in Jincheng, the mountains are like a sea of flowers. The two once met, under the hibiscus flowers, to play the piano and sing together. Now the hibiscus flowers are blooming, but the singer has long been separated from himself forever.
"When the hibiscus blooms, we will still be like this, how about you play and sing with me?"
"My Ru'er, I can't get enough of it in my life."
"I wish to have one heart, and the white head will not be separated."
"Ru'er, believe me, I will never leave you. Even if I leave temporarily, please wait for me. I will definitely come back and be there for you. ”
Yu Ruyan muttered, "Tang Yunluo, you liar! You promised me that you would play the piano and sing with me when the hibiscus blossoms, that you would never leave me, that you would never leave me...... You said you'd come back to me...... But now that the hibiscus flowers are blooming, where have you gone? ”
The tears on his face turned into blood and flowed in his heart.
Yu Ruyan wiped away her tears and went out for a walk. As she walked, the sound of several people talking came into Yu Ruyan's ears.
"Have you noticed anything strange when you've been standing guard lately?"
"What are you referring to?"
"Recently, in the direction of the Tucson tribe, there is always a person wandering back and forth on the border, and I don't know why."
"I know, I know. Da Zhuang went over there that day to see it, guess who? It's the leader of Tucsang, Huqitu! ”
"He's always on our side, what is he going to do? Is there a bad attempt to attack us like last time? ”
"You stupid! Does he really want to find his way to attack us, will it be so obvious that we can see him? ”
"That is to say, besides, he is a big sweater, does he need to come in person?"
"Then why is he always walking around here?"
"I heard......," the man deliberately lowered his voice, "it's because of Miss Ruyan!" ”
"Yes, yes, I also heard that the Great Khan is a little interesting to Miss Ruyan."
"I see, Miss Ruyan is also interesting to him, didn't she go back and live for another three months?"
"That's right, last time Hu Qitu almost killed Miss Ruyan, and hurt her like that before the battle, she went back, didn't she like it......"
Chu Yang's voice suddenly came, interrupting the conversation of several people: "How many of you have nothing to do?" Talking about the rights and wrongs of others behind your back! ”
"Will ...... Checkmate. Several people were so frightened that they didn't dare to breathe.
Chu Yang said angrily: "Let me hear similar words in the future, be careful that I reward you with a military stick!" ”
"Yes, yes, don't dare."
Chu Yang drove away the people who were talking about right and wrong, and turned the corner to see Yu Ruyan standing there. Chu Yang was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly asked, "Miss Ruyan, why are you here?" ”
Yu Ruyan smiled and said, "I heard it all, but it doesn't matter. I don't care about all this gossip anymore. ”
Chu Yang knew that before Yu Ruyan was demoted, the rumors about her in Beijing were a little unbearable. Chu Yang didn't believe that those rumors were true, and he once held grievances for Yu Ruyan in the court.
Yu Ruyan asked, "General Chu, there is something I really want to ask you, is the matter of Huqitu true?" Does he really wander around every day? ”
Chu Yang didn't answer, but just took Yu Ruyan to the lookout, pointed to a figure in the distance and said, "Do you think it's him?" ”
Although the distance is very far, she can't see her face clearly at all, but Yu Ruyan can feel that that person is Hu Qitu!
"He's true to you." Chu Yang said lightly, "The authorities are obsessed with bystanders, in fact, the two armies confronted each other that day, although he hurt you, but I can feel that it is not his sincerity." Later, I heard that the 200,000 stone grain was also pressured by the Taer tribe on him, and he had no choice but to agree. I sent you back that day, and I watched Huqitu's every move. Miss Ruyan, maybe you don't like to listen to it, maybe you can't forget Tang Yunluo, but Hu Qitu's love for you is indeed true. ”
Yesterday's everything, such as yesterday's death; Today's everything, such as today's birth. But Yu Ruyan is unwilling to forget the past, especially Tang Yunluo.
Yu Ruyan didn't say a word, got off the lookout by herself, and went back to the house to take care of the flowers. Chu Yang looked at her back and couldn't help but feel a little sad.
Time flickered, and it was already snowing. The grassland is white, and at this time last year, Yu Ruyan came to Mobei, and she didn't expect time to pass so quickly. Another year has passed.
This year's New Year was lively, without the nuisance of the Huns, and the soldiers were much more relaxed. On the night of Chinese New Year's Eve, Chu Yang knocked on Yu Ruyan's door and said lightly: "Miss Ruyan, someone is looking for you outside." ”
Yu Ruyan went out to look, only to see a burly man standing in the heavy snow, Yu Ruyan already knew who was coming.
"Great Khan, why did you come?" Yu Ruyan stepped forward and asked.
Hu Qitu sniffed and said, "Today is Chinese New Year's Eve, I miss you, so I will come and see you." It's been so long, are you okay? ”
Yu Ruyan smiled lightly: "I'm okay, what about you, Great Khan?" ”
"How can I be okay if I can't see you?" Hu Qitu smiled bitterly, "I'm just here to see you today, and seeing how you're doing, my heart is steady." ”
"It's cold outside, why don't you go and sit inside." Yu Ruyan said.
Hu Qitu looked at Chu Yang on the side, and was about to refuse, when Chu Yang suddenly said: "The Great Khan is a distinguished guest, how can he just leave when he comes?" I'll find someone to burn some wine and have a drink together. ”
Hu Qitu smiled and said, "Okay, thank you General Chu for your kindness." ”
Chu Yang took Huqitu into the house, ordered someone to scald the wine, cut the meat, and took some side dishes with the wine to entertain Huqitu.
"The general's hospitality, I am really grateful." Huqitu said with a fire.
Chu Yang poured a glass of wine for Hu Qitu and said, "The Great Khan is polite. For most of the past half a year, the Great Khan really did not break his promise, not only let the girl Ruyan come back, but also kept his promise to constantly harass the border of Qi State. ”
Hu Qitu said with a smile: "Since it is a matter of promising your country, I will naturally do what I say." ”
Chu Yang smiled and said: "Great Khan, taste our Han daughter's red, this is ten years of wine, see if it tastes enough!" ”
"Okay,!"
