Chapter 53 Before the Flower and Under the Moon

Night, Longxian Thorn History Mansion.

Ma Yue sat against a pillar in the room, moved several cases in front of him, and practiced calligraphy.

Recently, during the day, the garrison Lingshui Horse Farm practiced martial arts, and in the evening, he rode back to the city to accompany Liang Hu and Pei Shi and others to have dinner, and then danced and made ink, whether it was martial arts, the art of war, horsemanship, and calligraphy have been greatly improved.

Beneath the calm exterior of the rules, a restless heart beats violently.

The years are slipping away quietly, he has grown up, will the turbulent era be far away?

"Tuk-tuk." "Tuk-tuk."

There was a knock on the wooden door, and the soft voice made Ma Yue feel that the visitors outside the door were a little cautious.

"Enter."

The door was gently pushed open, revealing a little girl's smiling face, and a pair of eyes curved like crescents, which looked very cute.

"Brother Ma, what are you doing?"

"Ah, Miss Pei."

Ma Yue saw that it was Pei Ying'er, and hurriedly knelt down and sat up, it was comfortable to sit down, but it looked too impolite, Pei Ying'er was born in a big family in Hedong, and she wanted to pay more attention to etiquette.

Sitting up and straightening his waist, Ma Yue frowned slightly and asked softly, "Miss Pei is here, is there something wrong?" ”

At this time, most people are already about to fall asleep, and the reason why Pei Ying'er knocked on her door at this time made Ma Yue puzzled.

Pei Ying'er walked to Ma Yue's case, she walked briskly, revealing a youthful energy, and when she saw the words on Ma Yue's case, she stretched out her hand and looked at it, and said with a chuckle: "It turns out that you are writing, I can't see it, Brother Ma, you are so beautiful in writing!" ”

"Hey, why do you always frown." Pei Ying'er put down the words on the paper, raised her eyes and saw Ma Yue's slightly frowning brows, stretched out two fingers and shook her eyebrows twice, and said with a smile: "Didn't anyone tell you?" The frowning look is fierce. ”

At this time, Ma Yue realized that he had been frowning unconsciously since Pei Ying'er entered the house, thinking that the scar on his face had frightened the girl in front of him, so he hurriedly changed into a gentle look and asked, "Miss Pei, what are you...... Can I help you? ”

It's rude for a girl from a big family to walk into the men's room at night, right? Ma Yue thought unconsciously.

"It's good that the elder brother of the Ma family is called Nu Ying'er, and my aunt and uncle are called that." As she spoke, Pei Ying'er squinted at Ma Yue with a pair of crescent moon eyes and bowed to Ma Yue, looking cute and cute, "Ying'er apologizes to my brother on behalf of my brother." ”

"Apologize? Ah, you mean the eldest prince. Ma Yue hurriedly got up and returned the salute, and then said to Pei Ying'er: "Pei ...... Miss Ying'er doesn't have to be like this, I'm not angry. ”

Seeing that she had been forgiven by Ma Yue, Pei Ying'er jumped to the door, looked up at the sky and squinted at Ma Yue and smiled: "Brother Ma, the moon is so round tonight, do you want to come out and see?" ”

Ma Yue shrugged his shoulders, seeing that Pei Ying'er couldn't calm down and write when he apologized like this, he simply nodded and went out with Pei Ying'er.

Under the moon before the flowers, two young people sat on the stone platform and looked up at the starry sky.

There is no killing, no war, a bright moon hangs high in the sky, the starry sky under the night flickering brightly and brightly, the cicadas are singing in the ears, and the night breeze in early summer blows on the body with a little coolness, which is very beautiful.

I really want to ...... Stop at this moment forever.

"I heard that you have been to the Western Regions." The girl's tone was filled with a hint of expectation and dazedness, and she asked softly, "What does the Western Regions look like?" ”

Ma Yue was stunned and heard the expectation. Shaking his head, Ma Yue smiled and said, "I haven't been there either, I got lost in the desert." ”

"Huh?" Pei Ying'er's tone was a little disappointed.

Ma Yue looked around, but he didn't know where to put his gaze, the moonlight shone on Pei Ying'er's side face, her skin was fair, her nose was small and exquisite, and her eyes were flowing like waves in the moonlight.

The distance between the two people was very close, so close that the little white fluff on the earlobe was clearly visible, and Ma Yue's heart was a little hot.

Suddenly, she moved Ma Yue's hair, looked carefully at the moonlight, and said, "Ma Jun...... Is it the Qiang? ”

Ma Yue frowned disapprovingly, tilted his head and nodded, he didn't like people to touch his hair.

The two men fell into a somewhat awkward silence.

The hairy boy of Han and Qiang mixed blood, the famous lady of the Han family, these two classification words destroyed Fang Cai's Xiaoyi completely.

After being silent for a while, Pei Ying'er's cheeks slowly turned red, and in the dead of night, Pei Yinger suddenly felt that it was against everyone's etiquette.

"Ma Jun...... The warbler went back to her room, and was reprimanded when her aunt found her. ”

"Don't!"

Pei Ying'er made a cute face at Ma Yue with her tongue, Ma Yue woke up from a big dream, saw Pei Ying'er was about to get up, hurriedly reached out and grabbed her sleeve, and suddenly held the girl's weak and boneless fingers, and quickly let go of it in embarrassment, and said, "I'll blow you Qiangqu, right?" I learned it on the way to the Western Regions. ”

Pei Ying'er withdrew her palm without a trace, her crescent eyes were intoxicating, and she arched her hand to Ma Yue and sat down again.

Only this time it was a little farther away from the horse.

Ma Yue didn't care, he sat cross-legged on the stone platform and casually untied the one-foot Qiang flute tied around his waist, put it in his mouth and played it.

The crisp and tactful flute sound is melodious, illusory and blurry, and moving.

Ma Yue is not a top flute player, but every time he plays the Qiang flute, he will think of the days in the desert, the Qiang boy who taught him the Qiang flute but died, and the Qiang father who buried his head deep in the yellow sand in the desert storm.

There is a sadness in the song, this is a song that celebrates happiness.

Singing the praises of love, the song blown by the horse herding boy to the shepherdess, the blue sky and white clouds, but the sadness was blown out by Ma Yue.

The girl likes to think crankily, Pei Ying'er closed her eyes and listened to the song played by Ma Yue, and heard the sadness.

In my heart, I can't help but Ma Yue, Ma Yue looks very much in line with her aesthetics, these years from her family when she was a child has never stopped, she has seen a lot of polite scribes.

But in her heart, she still admires the general in the story, just like her grandfather.

Pei Ying'er has never met her grandfather, and her knowledge of her grandfather is limited to a few stories circulating within the family, but this does not stop her from being full of love for the pillars of the country who protect the family and defend the country.

Her grandfather's name was Pei Ye, the general of Duliao during the reign of Emperor Shun of the Han Dynasty.

Now, the young man playing the Qiang flute cross-legged next to her looked like a warrior, and she knew he was a warrior at first sight.

In the forest at the foot of Zhangshan Mountain, the sharp warriors of the Liang Mansion were outnumbered, and suddenly like a savage descending from the sky, a young warrior came out of the woods to kill the thieves with more than one enemy, and the situation at that time was like a brand lingering in the girl's heart.

At the end of the song, Ma Yue put down the Qiang flute and smiled: "How is it, is it good?" ”

"Hmm." Pei Ying'er nodded heavily, her big eyes shining in the moonlight, and asked, "Is this a song about losing a lover?" ”

"Lost a lover?" Ma Yue was stunned and said, "No, it's not, it's about the love between a horse herding boy and a shepherdess, happy and beautiful." ”

"Hush." Pei Ying'er sneered and stuck out her tongue, patted the floating soil on her clothes, and said to Ma Yue: "I really want to go back." ”

Ma Yue pursed his lips and nodded, and said, "I'll send you back to the inner courtyard." ”

There were patrolling guards walking by in the courtyard, and when they saw the young men and girls walking slowly side by side, they bypassed them far away, and when they got close, they greeted Ma Yue silently and stopped, waiting for them to pass.

"Ma Jun, are you going to Jincheng to fight with the Qiang people?"

At the gate of the inner courtyard, Ma Yue stopped and nodded in response: "Maybe, Mr. Dong Xiaowei and Mr. Don't say much, and I don't know very well." ”

Pei Ying'er gently pushed open the courtyard door, and whispered to Ma Yue before closing the door: "Then take care." ”

"Yes." Ma Yue nodded, and was about to go back to the room to rest, but he saw Pei Ying'er looking at him through the courtyard door for a while, lowered his head and whispered, "Then you won, come back quickly...... Play a tune for me again. ”

"Okay."

The wooden door of the inner courtyard was closed, and under the moonlight, Ma Yue touched his head and giggled at the wooden door with birds and beasts depicted.
