Chapter 183: Relatives
At noon when the sun was shining, an ordinary blue-green carriage was swaying towards Cangshan. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Cangshan is located in the mountains at the junction of the original Xiling, Jinyao, Nanchu and Mengshan, since Penglai and his party came, half a year, all the way to the mountains and rivers, full of affection and honey, walking is particularly pleasant.
It is the early spring, and the unknown flowers bloom on both sides of the official road, and the fragrance is faint.
The warm sunlight hit the man in white driving the carriage, his eyes were like jade, his lips were gentle, his dark eyes were shining in the sun, he didn't seem to care about the scenery, his deep eyes looked inside through the shaking curtain from time to time, and the tenderness of his lips was even worse.
A soft and white hand lifted the curtain embroidered with orchid patterns on a green background, and his voice revealed the laziness of the first awakening: "How long is it?" ”
He looked back with a smile: "You can go to Fancheng in the evening." "Cangshan is seventy miles outside Fancheng, if nothing else, it will be there tomorrow.
Seeing the residual tiredness on her face, she couldn't help but feel distressed: "Why don't you sleep more?" ”
Shen Qing raised his eyes and glared at him hatefully, his eyes were full of unconsciously charming, he needed to ask for a lot all night, what kind of good person would he pretend to be.
He leaned close to her forehead and kissed her lightly on the lips with guilt: "Good, it's my fault, go and sleep for a while, I'll call you when it's time." ”
Shen Qing rubbed his eyes, gave him a blank look, and then grabbed his arm with both hands and struggled to crawl out.
"You still sleep at noon, and don't you just weigh your heart at night?" There is a faint sourness around the waist, and it is obvious that he is overindulged.
Lian Mo freed up a hand and gently rubbed it at his waist, with a satisfied smile on the corner of his lips: "Who made Qingqing hungry for three years, now it's just a small compensation." ”
She narrowed her eyes slightly, looking at him dangerously, but it was just a small compensation? So what else do you want?
Lian Mo saw her as if she was facing a great enemy, his heart suddenly softened into a puddle of water, he hugged her waist, leaned closer, and rubbed his lips lightly on her small earlobe, ambiguously reassured: "Well, I must refrain tonight." ”
On the official road to the west of Fancheng, in the last sunset afterglow, the dust of the horses' hooves was raised and fell, and the carriage was surrounded by golden iron horses, and there was a solemn atmosphere.
The horses pulling the cart were obviously incomparable to the war horses, and they were restlessly digging the ground, and the horses' heads were shaking restlessly, trying to escape. Lian Mo grabbed the reins, his eyes swept around coldly, and the smile on his lips became a little colder.
Shen Qing was also stunned, and was about to speak, when several horses' hooves came from far and near, and after a while, accompanied by two neighings, a black and a white horse stopped in front of the carriage with its hooves.
The two turned over and dismounted, the man in the sandalwood gold silk brocade robe was still a gentleman's sassy appearance, as he turned over and dismounted, with a snort in his hand, he held a folding fan depicting the peony landscape.
A tall and thin young man in a dark blue power suit and a silver soft armor was not far behind, and he turned over neatly, grabbed in front of the man who shook the folding fan, and came to the side of the carriage in a few steps.
At first sight of the old man, Shen Qing was stunned at first, and then his heart became complicated, it was a strange feeling that he wanted to cry but wanted to laugh even more, maybe it was the family affection that blood was thicker than water, three years apart, goodbye, but not half unfamiliar.
"Cousin. Brother. ”
"I've seen the son. Eldest sister"
The people who came were Zhou Ji and Shen Tuo.
"Why are you here?" Before Shen Qing could speak, Lian Mo yelled at Zhou Ji with a cold face.
This kid is used to pestering Qingqing, and it's really a bit annoying.
Zhou Ji squinted, and replied confidently: "Master said that you are about to be someone's son-in-law, so he specially asked me to come over and have a look, but I can't embarrass his old man." ”
Lian Mojun's face sank, and he said coldly: "Nonsense." ”
Shen Qing looked at the two of them, his heart suddenly warmed, and he said with a smile: "Aji, Tuo'er, why are you in Fancheng?" ”
Her gaze paused slightly on Shen Tuo's silver-white soft armor, could it be... Turning to his face, his expression was restrained with excitement.
Zhou Ji shook his fan and rubbed next to Shen Qing, and carefully sat down on the edge of the carriage, completely ignoring Lian Mo's cold light.
"Cousin doesn't know yet, this kid didn't know what to smoke three years ago, so he had to go to the barracks, and his uncle was so angry. But no one thought that this kid was also lucky, and he followed Taiwei Lin to Northern Xinjiang and made meritorious contributions. However, in just three years, he actually climbed to the position of a third-grade general. No, the emperor also specially ordered him to guard Xiling City. ”
"Xiling City?" This is Fancheng, not far from Xiling.
Shen Tuodao: "I heard my cousin say that the eldest sister would pass through Fancheng, I couldn't rest assured, so I came with my cousin, but I had the emperor's order and couldn't stay for a long time, and I had to leave for Xiling in a while." ”
Shen Qing was moved in his heart, thinking that he had not heard from him for three years, he couldn't help but feel a little guilty, and raised his eyes and looked at Shen Tuo carefully.
The young man who was only half an inch taller than her at the beginning is now more than half a head taller than her, and his facial features are more and more similar to Shen Xiangchang, but his skin is much darker, his physique is a little burlier than before, and there is a little more perseverance between his eyebrows and eyes.
"How have Tuo'er been doing all these years?" She was a little distressed, in just three years, from an ordinary soldier to a third-grade general, needless to say, she knew the hardships.
There is a bit of pride in the distress, and growth always has to pay a price. The ignorant cowardice in him faded a lot, replaced by a faint confidence and calmness.
Shen Tuo's eyes were exceptionally bright in the setting sun, and he smiled, revealing his equally bright teeth, "I'm doing well, but my eldest sister has been gone for three years, and my father and I are very worried." ”
"Okay, don't stir up your emotions in this wilderness." Zhou Ji unconsciously hugged Shen Qing's arm, with a bright smile on his face: "Cousin has been back for so long, but you want to have a drink with me." ”
Before Shen Qing could say anything, Lian Mo had already kicked the eye-catching person down, turned around and nodded lightly at Shen Tuo, which was regarded as a greeting.
Shen Qing got out of the carriage and gave Lian Mo a waiting look, and then walked side by side with Shen Tuo to the side of the path.
"Are you okay at home?" Shen Qing asked.
"Well, the family is fine, my father is very important to the emperor, and even with it, I am also rising in the army."
Shen Qing smiled, his gaze accidentally changed to the wrist of his right hand, and a long centipede-like scar loomed under the dark blue sleeve. She squinted slightly, but she couldn't see it, but there was a slight sourness in her heart.
"By the way, not long after the eldest sister left, Mrs. gave birth to the sister-in-law of the Shen Mansion, who is now more than two years old."
His eyes were calm when he said this, and his face was more and more resolute with confidence.
When she left, Xu Chan was indeed pregnant, and now that the Shen Mansion has a son-in-law, whether it is for the Shen family or Xu Chan, it is obviously not a bad thing.
"Oh, have you seen one?"
Shen Tuo smiled faintly: "Well, I went home half a year ago, and I look pretty cute." ”
Shen Qing nodded, this kind of Shen Tuo reassured her that the path he chose might be more difficult, and he lived out his life in the end.
"Father doesn't say it, but I know that he misses his eldest sister very much." He turned his head to look at her, his expression in awe, and a faint hint of anticipation in his eyes.
Shen Qing felt guilty again, reached out and patted him on the shoulder, and promised: "I don't plan to leave Jin Yao for the time being, I can go home on Chinese New Year's Eve this year." ”
"It's only a month away from the New Year, and when I go back to Cangshan to see the master, I will leave to go back to Fengcheng."
Shen Tuo's eyes burst with joy, smiled shyly, and nodded solemnly. At the shoulders and arms, there is a warm touch, and the warmth of death suddenly warms the heart. She is not only his beloved sister, but also a mentor in his life.
"This year, I can also take a break, and then we can be reunited as a family."
The sound of heavy footsteps came from behind him, and a tall man who looked like a deputy general came to Shen Tuo's side: "General..." Shen Tuo waved his hand with a cold face, signaling him to retreat. When he turned to Shen Qing, his eyes involuntarily showed reluctance.
"Eldest sister, I..."
Shen Qing nodded understandingly, "The army is no better than the family, you have to be careful in everything, and don't be reckless if you are not sure." ”
Although he knew that he had been in the army for three years, these things no longer needed her instructions, perhaps because of the constant family affection in the blood, he still couldn't help but nag a few words.
Shen Tuo nodded obediently, the corners of his mouth curled slightly, and after sending Shen Qing back to the carriage, he saluted Lian Mo respectfully.
Then he turned over and got on his horse, gave a soft shout, and rushed out first.
The soldiers behind him beat their horses to keep up, and on the small official road, the yellow sand suddenly flew, and the horse's hooves shook the sky, and the once cowardly and extreme teenager was accompanied by the yellow sand in the sky, embarking on the journey of his golden iron horse.
The slightly cool palm was wrapped around her waist, and Shen Qing suddenly came back to her senses.
"Get in the car, it's going to get dark any longer."
She obediently turned around and was about to get into the car, but at a glance, she saw Zhou Ji sitting on the wheel, supporting Erlang's legs, and hanging his ruffian. She raised her eyebrows: "Uncle just let you look like this?" They are not yet in shape when they are old enough to marry a wife. ”
Zhou Ji squinted his peach blossom eyes and shook the folding fan comfortably. "I don't want to be like that kid, less than twenty, with his paralyzed face all day long, and it's not nice to look at him. How good the rivers and lakes are, free and easy, and can be with a peerless beauty like my cousin every day. ”
He came this time to make up his mind to follow Shen Qing, and no one could stop him.
Lian Mo's face suddenly turned cold, and as soon as he raised his toes, he was about to kick people again. But seeing that Zhou Ji leaned on his sitting body and lifted it, his toes were light, and the folding fan in his hand drew a half-arc behind him, and his body also turned a corner, just to get rid of Lian Mo's attack.
Shen Qing looked at his dodging kung fu, quite a bit of a smooth feeling, and praised: "I haven't seen you for three years, and my kung fu has grown a lot." ”
Zhou Ji raised his eyebrows proudly. "Master stayed in Fengcheng to teach for two years, and in the past three years, I haven't been playing."
He met Lian Mo's disgusted gaze: "Although Senior Brother is still almost, it's not so easy to be bullied." ”
Shen Qing nodded amusedly, and was thinking about what to say, when a white shadow flashed around him, and he heard a 'bang' and the sound of the flesh falling to the ground.
Zhou Ji got up with a sigh, and his fair-skinned face was stained with a few discordant blue ashes.
Lian Mo looked at him coldly: "As far as your ability is concerned, I'm embarrassed to say it." ”
After speaking, ignoring his ugly face, he hugged Shen Qing and bent down into the carriage.
Zhou Jiyu threw the fan, touched his face casually, whispered at the still shaking curtain, and then resigned himself to being a coachman, driving the carriage and rushing to Cangshan.
The room temperature inside the car is soft, and the yellow sand outside the car is full of sky. Zhou Ji spat out the sand in his mouth angrily, and looked at the car curtain with more and more resentment.
Suddenly, he thought of something, and his brows instantly rose. The corners of his lips curved into a bewitching arc.
He cleared his throat and raised his voice to the people inside, "I forgot one thing, Senior Brother has been separated for more than three years, and Lord Ling also misses Senior Brother very much, and often talks about the days when the two of you raised a glass and drank freely in Diecui Building. didn't think about it, the senior brother has been parting for so many years, and it is boring for him to have fun alone. I heard about my brother's whereabouts, and I was still looking forward to my brother's return as soon as possible in the imperial city. ”
There was a deathly silence in the car, and a ghostly cold aura came out through the curtains.
Zhou Ji moved his buttocks, which was hurt by chrome, and smiled very proudly. He's a senior brother, and his cousin can cure it. What if you can't beat it yourself, someone can cure it soon? He raised his eyebrows a little gloatingly, and now, he feels good!
The atmosphere in the car was weird, and under Shen Qingyin's measured gaze, Lian Mo's heart couldn't help but feel a little weak. Then he thought that he had simply drunk wine with Ling Yu twice, and was stared at by her like a traitor, and he was angry.
While holding a grudge against Zhou Ji who was humming a little song outside, he carefully pulled the woman's smooth rouyi. "Qingqing, don't listen to that kid's nonsense, I'm innocent."
Shen Qing still looked at him coldly, and his voice was low, which made Lian Mo feel uneasy again for no reason.
"The sound of dogs and horses, the beauty is around the knee, the son of the world is so beautiful! Why bother with me through the ups and downs, and there is no fixed place to live. ”
And she called him the son.
He twitched the corners of his mouth, and his voice was doggy, and she was sorry for what she said?
Lian Mo was already eager to unload the people driving outside at this time, but helplessly, it was the most important thing to appease the beauties in front of him first.
He carefully continued to pull the woman's hand, a smile on his face. "I really didn't do anything, Qingqing has to believe me."
"At most, I drank two cups of tea with Ling Yu, and I didn't even drink wine. I didn't even look at those vulgar fans, Qingqing can't be wronged because of that kid's words. ”
Shen Qing actually believed in Lian Mo in his heart, the stacked green buildings were originally his property, and the two had known each other for so many years, so she naturally knew what he was, but when she thought of him in the pile of smoky women, even if she didn't do anything, her heart was also panicked.
She glanced at him coldly again, decisively opened her eyes, and withdrew her hand. Leaning on the cushion, he said in a light tone: "Don't say it, I want to rest for a while." ”
Lian Mo wanted to explain again, but the woman had already closed her eyes, her breathing was shallow, and she looked unwilling to take care of him.
He couldn't help but be discouraged, and his hatred for the man outside the carriage was even greater. The kid hasn't seen him for a few years, but he has grown up to be capable, and it will be interesting to see how he cleans him up in the future.
The woman's even breathing came. Lian Mo dared to approach cautiously and gently took her in his arms. His eyes lingered on the red red lips, and he complained dissatisfiedly: "You woman, just listen to that kid's nonsense." ”
Outside the carriage, Zhou Ji's neck was cold, and after being proud, he couldn't help but feel a little afraid when he thought of his senior brother's temperament. The pair of peach blossom eyes blinked twice, and in the blink of an eye, his brows relaxed, and he couldn't help sighing.
People, what I am most afraid of is that there is a weakness, and today's Lian Mo is no longer the original prince of King Zhao. As long as he mentions his cousin, no matter how big his temper is, he has to swallow it back.
Without worries, the mood naturally rose by two points, thinking that the next thing would be the four seas as home, and I couldn't help but feel an inopportune pride.
He shouted, the horsewhip was wanton, and the horse galloped quickly on the official road. (To be continued.) )
