Chapter 51: A Trip to the Dongjiang River

Xu Qingsong summoned Cheng Zheng to the military and political hub, and ordered, "The 50,000 cavalry of Dongjiang has been trained, and I will inspect and review it a few days ago, if it is correct, you can go to the battlefield after a month." ”

"Yes," Cheng Zheng asked, "Is the eldest princess going too?" ”

Xu Qingsong said earnestly, "These 100,000 cavalry are all carefully selected elites, the emperor attaches great importance to them, and the eldest princess is the prince, so I should go to visit and review the sergeants." In the future, the millions of soldiers and horses of the Yun Clan will be in your hands, and they will all be loyal to the royal family after all. ”

"I see."

"The emperor said that you and the second princess are newly married Yan'er, which is a deep affection and sweetness, and it is inevitable that they will be separated, so you can take her with you. The area around the Dongjiang River is vast and sparsely populated, and the scenery is beautiful, so you can also have a good time while patrolling. ”

Cheng Zheng felt that it was inappropriate, and excused himself, "This, I'm afraid it's not suitable." I should put military affairs first, and I can't delay the military because of personal feelings. ”

Xu Qingsong didn't care, "What's wrong, it's not a matter of urgency to review the soldiers and horses, the second princess hasn't been out much since she entered Beijing, and this is also a rare opportunity." The emperor is also interested in this, and besides, the relationship between you and Yilin is well known, and it is inevitable that this will provoke tongues, and if the second princess stays in Beijing and hears something, it is even more inappropriate. ”

Cheng Zheng reluctantly agreed, "Okay, I'll go back and prepare." ”

On the day of departure, the emperor sent Yao Luo to lead a team of soldiers and horses to protect the safety of several people, Cheng Zheng Yao Luo rode a horse left and right, and rode a carriage one after another, the team set off in a mighty way, the cloud flag and the imperial flag were colorful, all the way.

As soon as he left the capital, Yishan opened the curtain and looked left and right, Cheng Zheng saw Yishan poking his head out, hitting the horse closer, and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

Yishan blushed and whispered, "You come up." ”

Cheng Zheng nodded, got off the horse, and when he picked up the front curtain, Cheng Zheng looked up and saw that Yilin was looking sideways at himself on the carriage in front of him, Cheng Zheng stopped moving, and lowered the curtain as soon as he lowered his eyelashes, and Cheng Zheng lowered his head and entered the carriage.

Yishan took Cheng Zheng's hand, recalled the scene in the past, and said with emotion, "When you took me from Jiangnan to Beijing, it was also such a scene, a car and a horse, all the way together. ”

A car and a horse? This time it was clearly two carriages and two people. Cheng Zheng held her hand, "Don't worry, there won't be any danger this time." ”

"I know that as long as you are by my side, I will not be in danger." Yishan leaned on Cheng Zheng's shoulder with attachment, "How far is Dongjiang from the capital?" ”

"It's not far away, it's two days away. If you're not feeling well, I'll slow them down. ”

Yishan shook her head, "No, I'll just rely on you." ”

At dusk the next day, the group arrived at the Dongjiang Hotel, and Jiang Zhi, the commander of the Dongjiang Mansion Yin and the cavalry, personally greeted him, prepared a banquet to catch the wind and wash the dust, and the etiquette was thorough and thorough. Cheng Zheng saw that he was tired on his face, and said that he would rest for two days first, and he would not be in a hurry to review the soldiers. After dinner, they went back to their rooms to rest.

At the fourth watch in the early morning, there was still silence outside in the night, and there was no movement, Yishan poked out his arm from the thin silk quilt, turned over and pinched Cheng Zheng's nose, Cheng Zheng had already noticed her movements, held her hand, and asked lazily, "Why are you not honest all night?" ”

Yishan pressed it on Cheng Zheng's chest and said excitedly, "Let's go see the sunrise." ”

Cheng Zheng turned his head and glanced at the window, it was pitch black, "What sunrise do you see in the middle of the night?" ”

Yishan sat up and asked, "What sunrise are you still watching when it's dawn?" I heard that the sunrise on the Dongjiang River is the most beautiful, and I don't want to miss it. ”

"You're not tired after two days of jolting in the carriage?"

"Not tired." Yishan pinched Cheng Zheng's nose again, Cheng Zheng just opened his mouth and was covered by her again, only to hear a coquettish voice, "If you don't get up, I'll suffocate you." ”

Cheng Zheng brushed her hand, "Okay, I'll get up." ”

When the two of them came to the riverside, the sky was just slightly bright, and the red flowers and green trees by the river could be faintly seen. Yishan was excited, running around, and Cheng Zheng chased behind him unhurriedly with a cloak.

"There are flowers ahead, let's go over and take a look." Yishan said and ran forward, Cheng Zheng stopped her from behind, and scolded softly, "You slow down, come here!" ”

"How?" Yishan turned around and waited for him in the same place.

Cheng Zheng hurried forward a few steps forward and tied a cloak to Yishan, "The morning dew is heavy, your body is cold, you don't know how to be careful at all, let's go." ”

Yishan touched the tie of the cloak on her chest and smiled happily, like an innocent child.

Walking along the shore for a while, the east revealed the white of the fish's belly, and the two sat down on a stone, listening to the river lapping on the shore wave by wave, very peaceful and peaceful. The wind on the river is blowing in your face, and it is cool and refreshing. Yishan leaned on Cheng Zheng's shoulder, looking at the glow in the east a little bit brilliant and fiery, the magnificent morning glow was radiant, and the moment the sun popped out, the whole sky was full of brilliance and dazzling. The sun seems to be impatient to give its light and heat to every grass and tree, mountain and water in this world, and it does not hesitate to illuminate the whole earth in an instant.

Yishan suddenly kissed Cheng Zheng's lips, and the warmth also vaguely revealed the shyness of her daughter's family. Cheng Zheng was stunned by her sudden move, and didn't know how to react, he instinctively shrank back, and stepped forward, his tongue opened Cheng Zheng's lips like a key, slid into his mouth, and searched carefully inside, leaving no room for anything.

Cheng Zheng reached out to grab Yishan's back, responded to her kiss, and pushed his tongue into her mouth. Yishan put her hands around Cheng Zheng's neck, closed her eyes, and indulged in the beauty of this moment.

Cheng Zhenghe's figure was bathed in gold, and his hair, robe, jewels, and beads were all fluttering lightly in the wind, quiet and peaceful, like a beautiful picture.

After a while, Cheng Zheng let go of her lips and lowered her head with a shy face, blushing feverishly until the root of her ears.

The corners of Cheng Zheng's mouth lifted slightly, and he teased, "This is the purpose of you taking me to watch the sunrise?" ”

Yishan bowed her head and whispered, "I heard that when you kiss your beloved at sunrise, our love will be witnessed by the sun, and it will last forever like the sun, so that I can be with you forever." ”

"Listen to whom?"

"Menghan."

Cheng Zheng frowned, can this little girl live in peace for a while, I can't escape your clutches even if I'm so far away from you. Cheng Zheng pinched his rosy and tender little cheeks, "You also believe her words." ”

Yishan threw herself into Cheng Zheng's arms, "I believe, as long as I can be with you forever, I believe in anything." ”

Cheng Zheng hugged her in the crook of his arm and didn't make a sound.

When the two of them returned to the hotel, Yilin was already having breakfast, "Where have you been?" I asked you to wake you up, and I found you not in the room. ”

"Let's go see the sunrise," Yishan went to sit next to her, leaning against her body and whispering, "I have a little secret, do you want to hear it?" ”

Cheng Zheng coughed lightly, stopped his mouth in a familiar manner, and stuck out his tongue mischievously at Cheng Zheng.

Lin Qingya smiled and said: "In the morning, I heard from the people in the hotel that there is an island in the south branch of the Dongjiang River, with beautiful scenery, wild fruits to pick, and big fish to fish, so why don't we go to the island to play today." ”

"Really? yes, yes, it sounds like I really want to go. Yishan became excited and coquettishly said to Cheng Zheng, "You said that you won't go to the barracks in the past two days, let's go play." ”

"Eat first." Cheng Zheng didn't say he was going or going.

Yishan grabbed Cheng Zheng's hand and pouted, "Go, go, go." ”

As soon as he lowered his eyelashes, he unhurriedly scooped a spoonful of soup into his mouth, and the light and breezy state seemed to completely let go of the knots in his heart.

Cheng Zheng couldn't resist her, "I didn't say I wouldn't go, eat first." ”

After breakfast, Yilin asked people to prepare some ingredients and utensils to load into the carriage, Cheng Zheng saw that Yilin wanted to get into the carriage and asked, "Don't you bring a few more people?" What good things can the four of us pick up to eat? ”

Yi Lin asked rhetorically, "Aren't you afraid that more people will disturb your interest?" When the two of us went out in micro-clothes, which time did you starve you? ”

"It's just that it's not fun to have a lot of people, and it's interesting to do it yourself." Yishan nodded again and again, "You and your sister went out in micro-service?" When was this? It seems to be a lot of fun, so tell me about it. ”

Yilin picked up the curtain and got into the carriage, and said to Cheng Zheng, "You can tell it yourself." ”

Originally, Yao Luo drove the carriage in front of him to pull Yilin Yishan, and Cheng Zheng drove the carriage behind him to pull some sundries. Cheng Zheng couldn't stand her stalking, and he was afraid that she would worry too much, so he picked up some irrelevant things and said something, and tried to pretend to be calm, he was really a thief and wanted to cover up.

finally arrived at the shore, and Cheng Zheng breathed a sigh of relief. This area is a branch of the Neijiang River, there are few strong winds and waves, from the shore to the island is about 100 zhang wide, a look at the past river hesitates like a mirror, the wind and waves are calm, sparkling, a little dazzling.

Yao Luo went to rent a small boat and took turns rowing to the island with Cheng Zheng. Yishan rolled up her sleeves and stretched out her hand to the river, and the clear river water swept through her hand, cool and comfortable.

"Sister, play with me, the water is so cold and comfortable." Yishan pulled Yilin's hand into the water, and Yilin's fingertips just touched the surface of the river, and he shrank back abruptly, "It's so cool." ”

"No, it's very comfortable, it's cold, it's refreshing. My sister is not used to it, so it's good to play for a while. ”

Yilin shook his head, "No, I'm afraid of the cold." ”

Yishan was happy, and from time to time sprinkled the water in his hand to Cheng Zheng, and couldn't help but sing the Jiangnan lotus picking minor tune while being excited, and the song was tactful and melodious, sprinkled all the way.

Once on the shore, Cheng Zheng and Yao Luo unloaded a bunch of things they had brought from the inn, fixed the boat, and found a large open space on the island to prepare their sumptuous meal. Yao Luo went to collect firewood to make a fire, as soon as he went fishing, Yishan and Cheng Zheng went to the island to check around, and at noon, Yishan ran back excitedly with a pheasant, "Look, what did I take?" ”

Yao Luo was pleasantly surprised, "There are pheasants on the island, it's really rare." ”

"Come and help me slaughter it, come on."

"Okay," Yao Luo put down the work in his hand.

Cheng Zheng walked behind Yishan with a bunch of wild fruits in his clothes, placed them next to a pile of food, and walked towards Yilin.

Yilin dug a puddle the size of a face plate beside him, and put all the fish he caught in it. Cheng Zheng took out the dagger from his waist, looked at the two fish in the puddle, one large and one small, and asked, "Which one should I kill first?" ”

As soon as Lin saw Cheng Zheng's dagger, he turned his head, "You still have it." ”

"I've always carried it." Cheng Zheng lowered his head and just caught a fish, and a person ran from the shore and shouted: "Master Hou! ”

Everyone turned their heads one after another, Cheng Zheng dropped the fish and got up, if it wasn't for an emergency, no one would chase here.

Someone approached Cheng Zheng and whispered a few words, Cheng Zheng's brows furrowed, and his expression was condensed, "You go to the boat and wait for me first." ”
