In the Baijie Hall, Basho has just set the table. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Zhou helped Mrs. Wu sit down at the table.

Mrs. Wu said with a smile: "In the morning, Lian Cheng came to say goodbye, I looked carefully, and the whole person was much calmer and more capable.

Lian Xiao went to the palace, right? It's noon, and it's time to come back.

Let's wait, maybe the two of them will come over for dinner. ”

Zhou nodded, but before he could speak, there was a greeting outside.

She pursed her lips and laughed: "Look, say Cao Cao, Cao Cao will arrive." ”

Mrs. Wu laughed.

Du Yunluo followed Mu Lianxiao into the main house, untied her snow coat, stood in front of the charcoal basin to get rid of the cold on her body, and then went to the Xinuan Pavilion.

Basho lifted the curtain and said hello sweetly.

Mu Lianxiao stepped forward, knelt down in front of Wu Lao Taijun and Zhou, and kowtowed three times.

The corners of Mrs. Wu's eyes were slightly red, and she nodded again and again, and Zhou choked back tears, and asked Du Yunluo to help Mu Lianxiao up.

In the past few years, Mu Lianxiao has often left Beijing to help the saint run around, and Wu Lao Taijun and Lian are also used to him not being in the mansion for a few months, but in their hearts, going to do things and going to war are always different.

Mrs. Wu held Mu Lianxiao's hand and said, "It looks like you're in good spirits." ”

Mu Lianxiao smiled and said, "Grandmother, don't worry, we are not lazy and slippery in Northern Xinjiang." ”

Mrs. Wu glanced at Mu Lianxiao, she knew that Mu Lianxiao and Mu Liancheng would not be lazy, but Mu Lianyu ......

Mu Lianyu didn't come back to Beijing, and Mrs. Wu wouldn't let him come back, so he told him to guard the border pass, when his mind was clear and clear, and when to mention the matter of returning to Beijing.

She wanted to ask about Mu Lianyu's condition, but she was afraid that Mu Lianxiao would ask about the reason why Mu Lianyu suddenly went to the frontier, so Mrs. Wu pondered and held it first.

"The food is going to be cold, hurry up and sit down and eat." Mrs. Wu said.

Speaking of all that nonsense, she didn't even have the appetite to eat.

Because they didn't know that Mu Lianxiao and Du Yunluo would go to Baijietang to eat, the dishes on the table were not rich, but fortunately, the two of them had just used Laba porridge, and they were not hungry.

After lunch, Mrs. Wu asked, "What did the Holy Lord say when you let you enter the palace?" ”

Mu Lianxiao restrained her smile and replied respectfully: "Speaking of the military situation in Northern Xinjiang, I am afraid that it will take a few years to fight this battle." ”

Du Yunluo nodded secretly in her heart.

In her impression, this battle was fought year after year, and it was only after eight or nine years that it subsided.

Mu Lianxiao died young, but Mu Liancheng and Mu Lianyu brothers had great military achievements, and after 30 years of Yong'an, Mu Liancheng became the Marquis of Dingyuan.

Nearly a decade of war changed her fate.

Mrs. Wu smiled bitterly: "This is a reincarnation."

In the past, it was the same, after a few years of fighting, the Tartars could not stand it, so they retreated to the steppe and desert, and did not come to invade the territory again.

Our army did not understand the depths of the grasslands and deserts, and could not find any trace of the Tartars, so they rashly set out on the expedition, and were afraid that the battle line would be long and the grain and grass would not be enough.

Wait for the Tartars to recuperate for a few years, and see that my border towns are prosperous, and they will come to harass and rob again.

Those who go back and forth like this are still the people at the border. ”

Mrs. Wu followed the old marquis to guard the northern frontier, knew the ability of the Tartars, and had also experienced the Tartars attacking the towns, so he also knew about those things.

"If you can draw salary from the bottom of the kettle, I dare not say that I will be peaceful for a lifetime, and I can be calm for ten or twenty years." Mu Lianxiao said.

Zhou smiled softly, a trace of sadness flashed in his eyes, and he was more relieved.

Mrs. Wu turned her head to look at the Zhou family and sighed, "In the end, they are two fathers and sons." ”

"Yes," Zhou said softly, "Your father often talks about the bottom of the kettle, and he wants to make a surprise attack on Gumeili City. ”

The city of Gumeili is the nest of the Tartars, and it is out of the city from the northwest pass, facing not the grassland but the desert.

The desert is unpredictable, and if you can pass through it and conquer the city of Gumeri, the suffering of the Tartars will be resolved.

It's a pity that the road from Guansai to Gumeili City is too difficult to master.

"If there is a good guide, Yuan Ce will definitely lead the cavalry to attack." Mrs. Wu said.

Recalling her eldest son, the old lady sighed a lot.

The Marquis of Dingyuan has paid too much in the war in northern Xinjiang, if it can get a big victory, it can make the Tartar backyard catch fire, keep the border peaceful, and want to come to the ancestors and ancestors to know the spring, and will be proud of future generations.

Taking a deep breath, Mrs. Wu said, "It's not easy to draw wages from the bottom of the kettle......"

Mu Lianxiao said solemnly: "Grandson knows." ”

Du Yunluo wrung the Jinpa in her hand, and her eyes fell on Mu Lianxiao.

She knows Mu Lianxiao's character very well, he is by no means greedy for life and afraid of death, he went to the northern Xinjiang to join the army, not to make a mess, but to protect his family and defend the country, he will never tarnish the prestige of the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion.

If there is an opportunity, let the Tartars stop for ten or twenty years, Mu Lianxiao will definitely do it.

The four grandparents talked for a while, and Mrs. Wu was tired, so she took a nap.

After Mu Lianxiao and Du Yunluo sent the Zhou family back to Jingshui Hall, they returned to Shaoxi Garden without hurrying.

Between breaths, there is the fragrance of plum blossoms in the garden, which is cold and cold, with a bit of elegance and longevity.

Du Yunluo was still thinking about the previous topic, and she was a little absent-minded.

Mu Lianxiao saw it in her eyes and squeezed her palm.

Back in Shaoxi Garden, Mu Lianxiao motioned for the waiting maids to withdraw, and asked softly, "Worried?" ”

Du Yunluo turned her eyes to look at him, and when she met those bright eyes, her heart skipped a beat.

After thinking about it for a while, Du Yunluo slowly opened her mouth: "Worry is worry, it's just that this is a war."

Whether it's a surprise attack or a defense of a city, there will be casualties.

It's just that you have to take care of yourself, even if you rush to the front, you have to win the battle and come back. ”

If there is no military merit in the hereditary title, how can it not decline?

Mu Lianxiao is brave and heroic, indomitable, and Du Yunluo likes this kind of Mu Lianxiao.

If you stop him, don't let him charge into battle, and don't let him make contributions, then what's the difference between her and Du Yunluo in her previous life?

Du Yunluo bent her eyes and said with a smile: "The son of the world I like has always been a brave person. ”

The sudden confession made Mu Lianxiao stunned in place.

The sound of "like" swept through his heartstrings and made his whole heart burn.

With a smile in her eyes, Mu Lianxiao hugged Du Yunluo horizontally, and pressed her to the bed in her exclamation.

The delicate and dense kiss fell on his forehead and ear, Du Yunluo pushed him, and said angrily: "It's only noon." ”

Mu Lianxiao sat up, bent down and grabbed Du Yunluo's jade feet, and took off her shoes for her: "It's just time to take a nap." ”

Where can I take a nap?

Du Yunluo didn't believe him, and snorted softly: "It's obviously daytime." ”

Mu Lianxiao's ears were red, he raised his hand and lowered the curtain, hugged Du Yunluo and rolled into the bed: "What you said, this is 'brave'." ”
