Chapter 21: Remembering the Past

Today's rabbit is still two more. Welcome to smash the ticket, and leave a word when you pass by. Tutu is working hard to code words, and I'll be on it later.

That day, when he was in Ziying's house, he saw the maid tiptoeing in with a letter. When I saw it, my heart was clear. Zi Ying's expression was moved, and her face was happy. Seeing that Ran was there, he seemed to hesitate for a moment, but finally made up his mind and asked, "Sister, do you remember the person who saved me in Baiyun Temple that day?" ”

nodded clearly, but when he saw Zi Ying mention this person, he thought to himself, was he the one who corresponded with Zi Ying? I secretly felt bad in my heart.

"Or maybe he recognized our carriage that day. A few days after his sister returned home, he asked the county lord of Hongyun to send a letter in, and it turned out that he and the lord of Hongyun actually knew each other. Zi Ying said this, her face was already full of crimson. Seeing this scene, I already knew it in my heart.

Zi Ying praised the man in every possible way, but although she repeatedly hinted that she was more guarded, Zi Ying couldn't listen to it at all. Knowing that Ziying is now deeply rooted, she is quite worried. And if he is not familiar with that person, he will not slander him for no reason, so he can only pay more attention to it after that, so as not to hurt Ziying.

In fact, in addition to Ziying, there is still one thing in the house that has made Zhiran quite concerned in the past few days. It turned out that I had been seeing a faint displeasure on my mother's face recently, and it seemed that she was upset. Ran asked several times, but the stepmother did not say it explicitly, but only comforted Ran and reassured her.

One day at a dinner party, his father-in-law Ge Jiangjun was rarely at home. But seeing a meal, Ge Jiangjun was not as happy as before. Ziying and Zhiranzi are also cautious, and they do not return to the usual scene of family happiness. After the meal, Ge Jiangjun sighed, "We can still have a family meal at home in peace, but the people in the frontier are in dire straits at this time!" ”

"Could it be that there is a war on the frontier?" I wondered in my heart, it is said that I often haunt the market tea shop, if there is a war, I shouldn't be ignorant.

"The Eagle Kingdom has always been eyeing the Luan Dynasty, and the current Emperor of the Eagle Kingdom is even more ambitious, and he has provoked a war at the border last month, killing how many innocent people in my Luan Dynasty." Ge Jiangjun was indignant. Or think of the war back then, this veteran must be more indignant than others.

Now I know that I have an understanding of the world I live in. In addition to the Luan Dynasty, which is located north of the Mohe River, has the most national strength, the Eagle Kingdom south of the Mohe River is also thriving. In addition, although the national strength of the Panli country west of the Mohe River is not as good as that of Luan and Eagle country, but the land area is more vast, but many areas in the territory are still barren land, and there are few people, so the economy is not as good as Luan and Eagle country. In addition to the Three Kingdoms, there are still more than ten small countries scattered on this continent, but many have become vassal countries of the Three Kingdoms, and their national strength is relatively weak, so it goes without saying that they have the right to speak.

To say that the Eagle Country mentioned by Ge Jiangjun has been in constant friction with the Luan Country more than ten years ago, and the war is endless. When King Xun was in power, the Luan army was also overwhelmed, defeating the Eagle Army, which frustrated the spirit of the Eagle Man, and the former Eagle Emperor also died in battle, and the Eagle Kingdom only lived in peace for a few years.

I wondered in my heart, if the two countries officially went to war, would my father-in-law be ordered to fight on the battlefield again? I think my stepmother has been worried for days, I'm afraid it's also for this matter. After all, the father-in-law is old, although his body is still quite tough, but if he wants to reproduce the fierceness of the battlefield again, he may not be able to do it.

But now that I know the rules of the imperial court, this era is no more than modern retirement talk. Unless the ministers finally get sick and get the emperor's grace, they can only return to their hometowns, otherwise they can only serve the court for the rest of their lives. The father-in-law is also a sincere person, if the two countries really go to war, he will definitely choose to do his best.

"That Eagle Country child is so rampant, our elite soldiers of the Luan Dynasty should kill his arrogance again", Ge Jiangjun sighed, "It's a pity that the emperor is not good at war today, and he is timid and afraid." Seeing that the eagle man killed the people, he did not fight back, but blocked the news of the war throughout the country, and now he even privately sent the princess to marry and kiss to settle the matter. ”

Ge Jiangjun stopped speaking, got up suddenly, turned around and walked to the study, "I really miss the prince Xun back then!" ”

I know very well that harmony is undoubtedly like a humiliation for a general like my father-in-law. He can't fight on the battlefield, but he relies on the happiness of a little woman to beg for temporary peace, which is not what he wants. When King Xun was in charge of the government, in the face of the attack of the Eagle Kingdom, he personally commanded the army to attack it, and finally returned to the court victoriously. Compared with the two, it is no wonder that the father-in-law misses King Xun.

It's just that Ran has never had a good impression of the war, the two countries are at war, the people are suffering, not to mention, how many young men will die on the battlefield again? How many families will suffer from the loss of their children? Harmony is not a cure, but it is also a good policy if it can be exchanged for a short period of peace.

It's just that she suffers from the princess who will be lonely all year round!

I was quite sympathetic to the fate of the woman who was about to marry the enemy country.

Here, the stepmother thought that she had heard the news of Heqin and knew that the old man could temporarily avoid running around on the battlefield, and her face actually recovered some joy. Seeing that in front of the major affairs of the family and the country, although the stepmother is the general's wife, she still has some selfish intentions, but how can this not be the pitiful heart of an old woman?

A few days later, Linglong wrote to meet each other. Considering the eventful situation at home, he couldn't let go of his heart a little, so he let Bizhu stay at home, and he only took the little maid out to the appointment.

Linglong is still accompanied by his cousin. Seeing this, Linglong was a little embarrassed, "Sister, don't blame, my stepmother in my family is very strict, if I can't be accompanied by my cousin, I'm afraid it will be difficult for me to go out." But then Linglong was happy again, "It's rare that my cousin panicked in front of my stepmother today, saying that he was going to take me to the suburbs to play, so I can go home later, and our sisters can also have a good reunion!" ”

Linglong's cousin was also considerate, and had booked a private room for the two of them in the restaurant, and he quietly withdrew.

A few days ago, there was a hurried gathering in Baiyun Temple, and now it is clear that the two can finally sit down and chat in detail, and they are very happy. After saying goodbye that day, I always felt that there were still many things to say to my sister, so I looked forward to the day of goodbye every day. I begged my cousin for the past two days, and I finally came out! Linglong is now full of peach blossoms, thinking that she is having a good life, but she smiled coquettishly: "If you want to say that you really miss the days with your sister, a few of our sisters, if you want to say that Sister Yahan makes people feel warm, Zijin makes people lively, but my sister makes people feel down-to-earth, everything is calm and relaxed, as if she can shelter our sisters from the wind and rain." ”

Hearing this, the smile is like a flower, and the opposite side only feels that it is suddenly like a night of spring breeze, and thousands of trees and pear blossoms are blooming.

"Sister, how rare is my sister now, I'm afraid that it should be your cousin who wants to shelter you from the wind and rain, right?" Seeing that Linglong was full of shame, he was already about to come over and beat himself a few times, and his heart was warm. If possible, after all, he is a person of two lives, and he is really willing to shelter his sisters from the wind and rain.

"By the way, I almost forgot about it, I just received a letter from Zijin two days ago", Linglong said, taking out a letter from her purse and handing it to Ran, "She didn't know that I saw you in the capital, if she knew, she would be very happy!" ”

He took the letter with a smile, looked at the handwriting, and read it carefully. It turned out that since Zi Jin entered the Jiafu, the richest man in Sanyang Town, although there is no shortage of food and clothing, his father-in-law and stepmother treat him very differently from his own children. When the people in the house see the wind and rudder, they often treat Zi Jin differently, Zi Jin can't have a seizure again, and her life is wronged, but she feels that her life in Yiluo Fang is not as good as her life in Yiluo Fang, so she also misses the sisters who used to accompany her even more.

"Now that I don't have to worry about food and clothing, I should be content. It's just that I'm afraid that the marriage will be in the future, and I'm afraid that it will all be decided by the father-in-law's family! Zijin sighed in the letter. I can't help but think about the day I first saw it, the girl Zijin with a hearty personality. It's just a matter of making people, thinking about her living a cautious life every day, I'm afraid that she always has to be restrained, and I don't feel a little regretful in my heart.

In the final analysis, how many people can really get their way to the fate of this girl?

"Sister Mo Chou", Linglong frowned slightly when she saw it, and while putting away the letter, she caressed and said: "Zi Jin is not that pedantic person, she has to fight for herself, and she may have a bright future and a great creation!" Linglong frowned, "Now I'm just worried about Sister Yahan, after many days, I still can't find out her whereabouts." ”

Linglong recalled the days in Yiluo Fang in the past, and said with a smile, "There are competitions in the workshop every year, and the worst ones are also placed in the workshop." At that time, Zijin was okay, sister and I are stupid after all, and I always pass the test", Linglong turned to be radiant again, "It's a pity that sister, you didn't see Sister Yahan's appearance later, she has always been the most outstanding among sisters, and she is amazing in every competition, and none of the masters in the workshop don't love her." ”

Knowing that Linglong has not been able to speak for many days, he must be very worried in his heart. In fact, why don't you miss the girl who was full of grace back then?

"Presumably, Sister Yahan is also worshipping in a rich and noble family now, and I will ask my father-in-law to inquire about it when I go back, maybe there will be news", said comfortingly.

Linglong nodded straightly, "Sister Yahan was born with a graceful appearance, it must be the life of wealth and nobility, but I am too careful!" ”

I wanted to ask Linglong what her cousin's plans were. After all, Linglong is a few months older than Ran, and now she has passed her thirteenth birthday. According to the laws of the Luan Dynasty, a woman can leave the cabinet when she is over the age of thirteen. Although it is very common for ordinary women to stay with their parents until they are fifteen or sixteen years old before marrying, after all, the identities of the girls are different, and now Linglong has found the person she likes, but I don't know if the marriage date has been set for next year.

The two of them were chatting, but they saw the little maid in the courtyard pushing the door in a panic and coming in, "Miss, it's not good." Sister Bizhu made people say that there was an accident in the family, and now it is a mess! Ran was shocked when he heard this, and hurriedly apologized to Linglong, "Sister, forgive me, it's rare to get together once, and now there is something going on at home, but I can only take the first step!" Linglong understood it, and hurriedly urged Ran to leave.

Bizhu has always been a steady person, if there is something important, she will never let others come to find her. Knowing this, although he was calm, he couldn't help but be a little anxious when he saw that the carriage could only move slowly in the market. If it was a change of night, it would be better to exert your own kung fu, and I am afraid that I would have already returned home by this time.
