Chapter 1: The Ordination of Tao Girl

Next Chapter

In the fourth year of Emperor Wu of Southern Qi, a girl fell to the ground!

Legend has it that on the day she was born, Sirius popped up to the northwest. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info old people who know a little about astronomy say that this is a bad omen. The Sirius is a war star, and if it appears at this time, I am afraid that the country will soon have a great disaster.

But the baby girl didn't know this, and her pink little mouth puffed out one after another, as if telling the novelty of seeing the world for the first time.

Her father, Sima Nan, the governor of Qingzhou and the general of Wuwei, took over the newborn girl from the hands of the nurse, and he didn't like it at all. He also saw the ominous star just now, although he was not superstitious, but the war was imminent, which was by no means a good sign for the Southern Dynasty, which had a two-hundred-year foundation.

He glanced at the sleeping baby girl and left. The baby girl held her little hand in her mouth and slept soundly.

Sima Nan is quiet by nature, indifferent and serious, and with the fact that he has been fighting outside all the year round, his family rarely sees him with a pleasant appearance.

Sima Nan has five children, and her daughter Sima Qingcheng is the youngest and the only girl. As a father, he didn't like his daughter, because the day Qingcheng was born was when the former Qin Dynasty attacked the Southern Qi Dynasty, and after he hurriedly glanced at his wife and children, he went to the battlefield.

However, because the former Qin hired the Qiang iron cavalry in the north, the Southern Qi army suffered a defeat. This is definitely a shame for Sima Nan, the victorious general. He will never forget this day in his life. Although he didn't admit it, Sirius loomed when his daughter was born, making him vaguely blame the ignorant baby. He felt that Qingcheng was a disaster, because her birth had greatly damaged Nanqi's vitality.

Therefore, he doesn't like Qingcheng, he is always cold and rigid in front of her, which makes people feel unapproachable.

But the naïve and naïve Qingcheng didn't know all this. She likes her father, and despite his constant cold face, she is willing to be close to him.

At that time, Qingcheng was still very young, about five or six years old. One day she took the windmill she had made to show her father. For some reason, Sima Nan was furious when he saw the windmill in Qingcheng's hand, so he snatched it and tore it to pieces.

"What a plaything!" Sima Nan yelled.

Xiao Qingcheng didn't know why her father was suddenly angry, she just wanted her father to see what she had made with her own hands. She cried aggrievedly, feeling that the sky had lost its color in an instant, and her world was no longer cheerful. Until the nurse took her away, she was still crying sadly. Perhaps, at that moment, she completely understood the reason why her father had a cold and serious face.

Since then, Qingcheng was scared when she saw her father, and she did not dare to be in front of him for more than a quarter of an hour. Whenever Sima Nan finished speaking to his son and daughter, Qingcheng always slipped away as if he had met with amnesty, no matter how the four brothers laughed at him.

In the ignorant years, Qingcheng was not very happy. The only one who brought her happiness was the fourth brother Sima Jian. Sima Jian is warm and cheerful, and he loves this only sister very much. However, when Sima Jian was twelve years old, he was sent to the military camp by his father Sima Nan to hone his training, and the brother and sister rarely saw each other since then.

In Qingcheng's memory, except for the warmth and happiness brought to her by the fourth brother, no one seems to be so good to her and so intimate to her.

She has a mother, but Mrs. Sima is equally ignorant of Qingcheng. Mrs. Sima was born in the Xie family, a famous family in Shangyu, and she is an out-and-out lady who does not go out of the door and does not step out of the second door. She has been familiar with the four books since she was a child, and her traditional concepts are very heavy. In her mind, a boy is a god, born nobler than a daughter. The daughter's family has no power to restrain the chicken, except for the husband and children after marriage, it seems to be of no use.

Therefore, she is not too concerned about Qingcheng, nor is she too cold. In such a big family, she feels that she is not thin on her daughter. As her sons grew older, Mrs. Sima spent all her time in the Buddhist hall. As soon as she entered the Buddhist hall, she forgot about the things in the world and almost never stepped out of the door.

Of course, she is also an escape. The young man was ignorant, so she was married to Sima Nan, who was not smiling, by her aunt. Although the relationship between husband and wife after marriage is not bad, it is often the same bed and different dreams. Sima Nan was cold and stubborn, and after trying to communicate with him unsuccessfully, Mrs. Sima simply kept her mouth shut, and always spoke to him no more than three sentences at a time, or simply treated him with silence.

Growing up in such an indifferent and old-fashioned family, Qingcheng never knew what parental care was. Most of the time she was alone. Of course, this is not necessarily the case, she also has a nurse Gui sister-in-law who grew up with her.

Sister-in-law Gui has big hands and feet, and her body is strong, and she heard people say that she was a peasant girl before she entered the house. Later, after her husband died, she had no way to make a living, so she entered Sima's Mansion as a nurse. She is simple and cares for Qingcheng. But she doesn't understand Qingcheng, and Sister-in-law Gui thinks that dressing warm and eating well is a kind of concern.

Without the care of his family, Qingcheng is like a wild child all day long, either spending time in the back garden or secretly running out to play. She was a naughty teenager, and often came home only when she got dirty, or came back with a blue and purple body.

This frightened Sister-in-law Gui: "Miss, did you fight with someone?" How good is this, let the master know, and don't peel your skin! ”

Sister-in-law Gui scolded while giving Qingcheng medicine with tears in her eyes. Qingcheng endured the pain and smiled at the only person who cared about him. She knew that her father would not find out, that he hadn't been home for years. And her mother didn't pay attention to it, even if she saw it, she would only look at it indifferently and tell Sister-in-law Gui to give her some medicine.

Time has made Xiaoqingcheng stubborn and independent. She knew that in this family, she did not have the support of her parents and brothers, and if she wanted to survive, she had to rely on herself.

In the blink of an eye, Qingcheng reached the age of studying. In those days, a woman's lack of talent was virtue. Girls from serious families only read women's books and four books. For a girl like Qingcheng, her brothers in the family have all joined the army, and her mother doesn't care about her, so it's probably just a luxury to want to study.

But for some reason, one day, Sima Nan suddenly called her to the study. At first, she trembled and walked on thin ice, for fear that she would be punished by her father for doing something wrong.

Sure enough, as soon as she entered the door, she saw her father staring at her with a serious face. Qingcheng couldn't help but shake his legs, and trembling to ask his father for peace.

"How old are you?" Father's majestic voice came through the air.

"Nine, nine!" Qingcheng replied in a low voice.

"Humph!" Sima Nan snorted in disgust.

This sound was like a thunderbolt on a sunny day, Qingcheng was so frightened that his face turned pale, and he didn't dare to speak for a long time.

After a while, I only heard Sima Nan's voice coming, which seemed to be much gentler than before.

"Nine years old! It's time to study, too. Your brothers are not here, but our Sima family is a decent family, and if my daughter marries in the future, how can I let people poke my backbone and say that the daughter of the Sima family is not learned and has no skills? Therefore, my father has given you a gentleman, and you should study with him tomorrow. ”

Qingcheng doesn't know what to study, but it should be good to think about it, otherwise why would children of the same age as him study? Besides, when her father spoke, she didn't dare to say anything, but only responded respectfully. She saluted and was about to go out.

Suddenly, Sima Nan stopped her: "You remember! You must work hard in reading, and when you learn your homework every day, you will memorize it to me. Remember! ”

"Remember!" Qingcheng stood sideways for a while, and when he saw that his father had nothing else to say, he retreated.

Studying is not a happy thing for Qingcheng. The gentleman asked her to recite the article all day long, and the article was so bent that Qingcheng felt that her jaw hurt. Sometimes, when she was bored, she fell asleep on the table. Seeing that she was so ungrown, the gentleman was so angry that he puffed his beard and told Sima Nan about it.

Sima Nan was furious when he heard this, and immediately asked people to call Qingcheng to the study. "Have you memorized all the books you memorized?" Sima Nan asked in a deep voice.

Qingcheng was shocked when she heard this, she knew that this was a precursor to her father's temper, "It's almost over." Qingcheng said carefully.

"Okay, recite Zhuge Liang's "Teacher Table" to me."

"The first emperor did not start a business, and the middle way collapsed... The autumn of the city's survival is also... Before Qingcheng started, he felt that his head was blank, and he even forgot to memorize everything he had memorized before.

Sima Nan was furious, pointed at his nose and scolded: "What a brute! Although my Sima family was born as a military general, my ancestors are also heirlooms of poetry and books. But if you disobey your teacher like this and don't learn well, it's really a shame for the ancestors of my Sima family. Come, bring me a whip, and I will not believe that I will not be able to cure this stubborn thing. ”

When the family saw that Sima Nan was going to whip Qingcheng, they had the heart to dissuade him. But seeing that his sword eyebrows were upside down and his face was pale, he knew that he was not easy to provoke, so he hesitated for a long time, but he still took the horsewhip. Sima Nan snatched it with his hand, angrily shouted at Qingcheng and knelt down, and then the whip with the thickness of his fingers split his head and covered his face towards Qingcheng.

Qingcheng is a stubborn temper, at this time she was very angry in her heart, and she didn't admit her mistake, and she didn't say a word with her teeth stubborn. When Sima Nan saw his daughter's situation, he became more and more angry, and he became more and more ruthless regardless of the seriousness.

This meal was full of tea, and when Mrs. Sima heard the news, Qingcheng had already fallen to the ground unconscious.

"Are you going to beat her to death? I know you think she's a scourge, and you don't like her at every turn. But she is your own flesh and blood, and the tiger poison does not eat children. You're so ruthless. If she dies, I won't live anymore, so let's just go with our mother and son, and save you a bad feeling. Seeing that her daughter was unconscious, Mrs. Sima cried and scolded, and fell on Qingcheng and couldn't get up.

Seeing his daughter lying motionless on the ground, Sima Nan also panicked, and hurriedly sent someone to ask for a doctor.

The doctor came to see and prescribed medicine, saying that it was no big deal, but he fainted in pain and woke up after a while. At this time, Sima and his wife were relieved. Although they don't like this child very much, but in the end, they are their own flesh and blood, and now seeing her like this, they really regret it in their hearts.

After feeding the medicine and seeing that she was sleeping soundly, I went back to my room to sleep.
