32. Chapter XXXII

Four days later, in the evening, the group finally reached the northern camp.

Although Zhou Qingqing was born in Jiangmen, he has never had the opportunity to really set foot in the barracks, especially the army stationed at the border. From a distance, the white felt tent stretches for miles, and in the distance it seems to meet the sky, gradually blending into the sunset and floating clouds.

After getting out of the carriage and standing in this wild place, the wind blew, and a trace of unfamiliar heroism appeared in her chest for no reason. I thought it was wonderful, so I smiled to myself.

Qin Zhen heard her low laughter, turned his head to look at her, and saw that the corners of her mouth were lightly raised, her eyebrows were smiling, and the hair on her forehead was slightly scattered, moving with the wind. His heart moved, and he stretched out his hand to put the few strands of green silk behind her ear: "The Northern Zhao army is coming, I don't know how long this battle will last, the camp is simple, and my wife will be tired." ”

Zhou Qingqing stared at him, and the corners of his mouth curled: "Since the prince feels sorry for me, it is better to wait for your injury to be a little better, and let me go back to Xijing, after all, I am a female dependent, and I can't help much in the war camp." ”

Qin Zhen chuckled: "Marrying a chicken and marrying a dog is a dog, Mrs. should understand this very well." How long I am in the war camp, my wife will naturally stay with me in the war camp for how long. ”

Zhou Qingqing rolled his eyes silently, but Qin Zhen laughed loudly.

At this time, a man wearing the general's armor came up with a few people, clasped his fists and said respectfully: "Subordinates greet the prince." ”

Qin Zhen waved his hand: "General Yu, how many times have I said that you don't need to do these false courtesies in the barracks." I have just arrived today, and before the Northern Zhao army arrives, let the brothers have a good drink tonight, and start preparing for war tomorrow. ”

General Yu smiled and nodded: "Okay, I will order the prince's order." ”

Entering the felt tent, Zhou Qingqing watched him sit on the couch with his chest covered, and asked, "Your injuries are not healed yet, will you have a drink with the soldiers later?" ”

Qin Zhen looked up at her and chuckled: "Of course, the top and bottom are happy, how can I not drink it?" ”

Zhou Qingqing smiled slyly: "Then I'll replace your wine with water later." ”

Qin Zhen couldn't help laughing, but because of the vibration of his chest, the wound was involved, and he frowned and snorted twice: "Madame thinks so much about her husband, it's really touching!" ”

Zhou Qingqing curled the corners of her mouth and smiled: "Lord Wang, you said that I can only have you in my eyes, so I naturally care about you in everything." ”

Qin Zhen shook his head with a smile: "But you really take the joke seriously." ”

Zhou Qingqing raised his eyebrows and joked: "So what does the prince mean, I can still have someone else in my eyes?" ”

Qin Zhen looked at her meaninglessly: "You can try?" ”

Zhou Qingqing glanced at him and sneered: "That's it, I'm a person who cherishes my life." ”

After a few days of tiring travel, neither of them had the heart to quarrel, ate some simple food, and rested for a while, when the β–‘β–‘twilight outside the account came, the full moon rose, and the bonfire was like a star, lit in this camp that stretched for miles.

Qin Zhen pulled Zhou Qingqing to sit down in front of the main bonfire, Nie Jin and Feng Xiao were already sitting on the side, surrounded by soldiers sitting on the ground. Except for the occasional elderly woman in the camp, there are almost no women in sight, and the soldiers are inevitably new when they see the princess. About Qin Zhen has always been hearty and friendly in the army, or maybe it is the nature of the Western Qin people, these soldiers are not afraid of the identity of the princess, and when they saw Zhou Qingqing and Qin Zhen sitting down, they whistled and coaxed.

However, Qin Zhen laughed and snorted, and then he was honest, thinking that Qin Zhen was still very prestigious.

Although Zhou Qingqing is not a lady who does not go out of the door, but this kind of occasion has only been experienced once on the road to harmony. Last time, half of them were Southern Zhou people who sent relatives, in addition to the maid Bihe, there were also a few embroidery girls, but now he is only a woman, but he is really a little uncomfortable.

Qin Zhen's wine was naturally poured by the princess herself, and Zhou Qingqing had already prepared, quietly poured out the wine in the jar and replaced it with white water. Qin Zhen took the cup and raised his head to drink, the corners of his mouth raised and smiled silently.

As soon as the men drank, they began to go wild, dancing around the bonfire, guessing and fighting, and talking about meat. Qin Zhen is also a good player, and he quickly mingles with everyone.

Zhou Qingqing was uncomfortable staying here, so he quietly left while everyone was crazy.

The entire camp was full of singing and dancing, and Zhou Qingqing walked a long way before he found a quiet place for a while. But seeing a familiar figure sitting in front of him, he was stunned for a moment, and stepped forward with a smile: "General Feng, why is he here alone?" ”

Feng Xiao held a bamboo flute in her hand and looked at her with her head raised: "Why didn't the princess look at him by the prince's side?" ”

Zhou Qingqing frowned and touched his ears: "Where can I see him, my ears are about to be numb from the noise, and I don't know how long they can make trouble, I just want to be quiet for a while." ”

Feng Xiao laughed: "The prince's serious injury has not healed, but I am afraid that I will hurt my body by drinking too much." ”

Zhou Qingqing looked left and right at no one, and whispered, "I quietly changed it for water." ”

Under the moonlight, she looked playful, like a girl who had not been in the world, and she couldn't tell that she was married to another woman. She didn't shy away from it, sat down next to Feng Xiao, and said, "General Feng, can you the song from the wine shop last time?" ”

Feng Xiao laughed, did not answer, only put the flute to his lips, and after a while, the melodious and tactful sound of the flute flowed from his lips. In the wilderness, the front is the vast night, and the rear is the carnival camp, this homesick song is sandwiched in the middle, and Zhou Qingqing listens back to it, and it has a unique charm.

She was a little stunned when she heard it, and her mind involuntarily reappeared in those days and nights in Jinling, and when the song ended, she unconsciously burst into tears.

She came back to her senses, a little uncomfortably, lifted her sleeve, and wiped her eyes lightly.

Feng Xiao turned her head to look at her, and a smile appeared on her eyebrows: "Is the princess homesick?" ”

Zhou Qingqing nodded, but did not make a sound.

After a moment of silence, Feng Xiao said in a low voice: "For some reason tonight, I'm also a little homesick." ”

Zhou Qingqing looked up at him, only to see that his expression was slightly pale and sad, and asked a little strangely: "Didn't General Feng say that he had been displaced since he was a child, and he didn't remember where his hometown was?"

Feng Xiao nodded: "I did wander when I was young, and I don't remember where my hometown is, but these days, somehow, some scenes from my childhood always come to mind, there are mountains and rivers, houses and lotus ponds. I guess that's my home. ”

Zhou Qingqing pondered for a moment and asked tentatively, "General Feng doesn't remember why he was displaced?" ”

Princely families, common people in the market, everyone has their own innate temperament, although Feng Xiao was born in Western Qin Manu, but she always felt that he was not the same as the rough people in the grassroots of the Western Qin market, and his appearance was not quite the same as that of the Western Qin people.

Feng Xiao was silent for a long time before answering his words: "The war, the home in my dreams was destroyed by the war. ”

Zhou Qingqing thought about the situation in the world more than ten or twenty years ago, although she was not yet born, she also knew that it was the time when the Southern Zhou and Western Qin fought the most fiercely, and it was not surprising that many people lost their homes because of the war.

Zhou Qingqing smiled helplessly: "War is indeed hateful. I thought that Western Qin and Southern Zhou would negotiate peace, and I would marry King Wu, and I thought that this world would be stable for at least a few years, but I didn't expect Northern Zhao to start to stop again. It seems that if you want peace in the world, you can probably only dream about it. ”

Feng Xiao sighed and agreed: "Yes! Only in dreams. ”

Zhou Qingqing took a deep breath and stood up: "I have sneaked out for so long, I am afraid that the prince will look for me, so I will not disturb General Feng's leisure and elegance." ”

After saying that, she strode away, and after a few steps, the flute behind her sounded again, but soon followed her footsteps, and was buried in the staggered staggering of the war camp.

Zhou Qingqing found Qin Zhen's place, but saw that he was fighting with a few soldiers, and his body was a little crooked. She was shocked, and hurriedly walked over, a burst of wine came to her nose, and she frowned: "Lord Wang, why have you been drinking?" ”

Qin Zhen pointed to a few people beside him, and said with a smile: "Madame changed my wine into water, and asked these guys to see through, I am being punished for drinking!" ”

Isn't this nonsense? Zhou Qingqing held him up, and General Yu on the same side said: "General Yu, the prince has not recovered from his serious injuries, and the doctor explained that he can't drink." ”

General Yu thought that Qin Zhen was almost fine, but seeing that she was worried, he realized that this was not the case, and hurriedly said: "The princess hurriedly helped the prince to go to the felt tent to rest, just now the prince went out and came back, and he had already drunk a large jar of wine." ”
