Chapter Fifty-Six: A Letter Comes
Xie Ning got up and walked to Qin Feng's side, his raised arm pointing to the sky, "Look. ”
Looking in the direction she was pointing, the confused look in Qin Feng's eyes did not decrease, and when he was about to retract his gaze, there was an extra small hand on his shoulder. After a pause, he heard Xie Ning's voice whispering soothing beside him, "My mother once said to me when she was seriously ill that people are stars in the sky, and even if they leave, they will become meteors and go to the next sky, so even if she leaves, don't be afraid, because she will protect me somewhere I don't know." At first, I only thought she was coaxing me, but now that I think about it, it doesn't make a little sense. Everyone dies, but sooner or later, one day, we will meet in the sky, like the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl. Life and death, changes in current affairs, will eventually meet again. ”
"The stars are just like a sea of people who are hard to find." Qin Feng's words were full of emotion, he turned his head to look at Xie Ning, but the faint gloom between his eyebrows disappeared, "My mother is named Concubine Yue, and my word is what she took before her death." ”
"Ziyue," Xie Ning said clearly, with a genuine smile in his eyes, "It turns out that this is what it means, no wonder when I first heard it, I thought it sounded very good." ”
The moonlight is like water, which can't hide the starlight, and the mottled shadows of the trees are swaying on the ground, which can't be covered, and the figures are in pairs.
Qin Feng bowed his head slightly, his gaze swept over the starry eyes of the girl beside him, and he looked up at the sky, the corners of his mouth involuntarily hooked an arc.

Early the next morning, Xie Ning, who had not slept for half a night, yawned three times in a row before reluctantly getting out of the bed. looked at Gu Sui, who was still asleep, and finally resisted the urge to settle accounts with her, and went out to fight a set of punches.
After packing up, she was about to go out, so she took a photo with Qin Feng, who found here.
"Have you had breakfast?"
"No," Xie Ning shook her head, perhaps because she got up too early, and there was no one in the courtyard to deliver food, so she couldn't make her own decisions, so she had to go hungry for the time being, "I'm going to go to the paddock to eat." ”
Qin Feng seemed to see her thoughts, and said with a light smile: "I have already ordered someone to make breakfast, if you don't come, won't it be a waste?" ”
"Yes." Xie Ning realized it later, and after walking behind Qin Feng for a while, he realized how much Qin Feng controlled her seven inches, and he couldn't help laughing, but he didn't stop.
The courtyard that Qin Feng led her to was not far from where she lived, only separated by a bluestone road. The two of them didn't see half a figure all the way, and it wasn't until they entered the dining room and sat down that they saw Mingshuang's figure.
"Lord Wang, Miss Xie," Mingshuang stepped forward with a smile and said hello, and after delivering the two fragrant teas to the table, she stood aside.
When Xie Ning entered Beijing for a long time, he already had some understanding of the customs of this high-ranking family, but it was still inevitably awkward. After breakfast, she took the carriage to the paddock, while Qin Feng stayed in the courtyard.
Today is Concubine Yue's birthday, Xie Ning guessed that Qin Feng must have other arrangements, so he didn't ask more, but he put a matter on his mind in his heart, and planned to come back to see if he was anything wrong.
***
After a day of training, Xie Ning finally selected dozens of soldiers who were proficient in imperial cavalry from among the three hundred people, and asked Hou Zheng to write down his name and surname before taking the rest of the people to train his arm strength and foot strength.
waited until the sun was setting, and then I returned to the courtyard late under the reminder without a trace, but I didn't want to see the noise at the door as soon as I got out of the car.
In front of the simple double-leaf ebony courtyard, a richly decorated treasure cover car was parked, and the crowd surrounded the open space into three layers inside and three layers outside. Xie Ning was about to look curiously when he heard a sharp shout - "Fengtian carrier, the emperor said"
Everyone in front of the door fell to the ground in an instant, and Xie Ning also knelt down, but secretly glanced in the direction of the speaker, but saw a purple shadow standing in the center of the crowd, holding a yellow axis holy oracle, looking up and saying: "Yandi is in chaos, the people are free, and I can't bear it." King An is hereby ordered to lead 300 troops and choose a day to suppress the bandits. Chin this! ”
"The retainers take the order." Qin Feng raised his voice, got up unhurriedly to take the holy decree, exchanged a few words with the chamberlain who passed the decree, and then sent the other party into the carriage.
The Huache gradually moved away, and everyone dispersed, Xie Ning walked over from the side and met Qin Feng's indifferent gaze, "Brother Ziyue." ”
Qin Feng bowed slightly, a touch of joy began to appear on his face, and while walking forward, he turned his head sideways and said to Xie Ning: "Now that the will has been made, if anyone asks about training soldiers in the future, you can speak up and don't have to hide it anymore." ”
Xie Ning pursed the corners of his mouth, kept up with Qin Feng's steps, and asked in a brisk tone, "Then can my identity as a woman also be shown in front of others?" ”
Hearing this, Qin Feng's footsteps paused slightly, and when he looked at Xie Ning again, he had a gentle look, "It's okay." ”
"Hahaha," there was no one around, Xie Ning didn't have to pretend to be a lady, he laughed out loud, blinked his eyes, and said mischievously: "I'm joking, don't take it seriously." If everyone knew that Ning Jiaotou was a woman, maybe they would drop their jaws in shock. I'm not ignorant, and I won't mess around. ”
Qin Feng smiled noncommittally, and then said, "In the afternoon, Gaohou sent someone to come and bring you some letters, and I happened to meet them, so I took them on my body. Here you go. ”
"Oh," Xie Ning took the two letters that Qin Feng took out of his arms, opened them on the spot without hesitation, and hurriedly browsed the end of the letter before turning his head to read the letter.
The first one was a reply letter written by Father Xie, and the father and daughter were only rough in writing and ink, and the content of the letters exchanged was only sparse. Xie Ning put away the reply letter before turning to look at another letter written to her by Wei Tingcheng.
"Brother Ziyue," Xie Ning looked up at Qin Feng, "I wonder when we will return to the city?" ”
His eyes swept over the letter in her hand, and Qin Feng said quietly: "When do you think the imperial archery will be practiced, when will we go back." ”
Xie Ning pondered for a while, and after a while, he said: "Yuyi still needs to practice for another day, and as for archery, three or four days of kung fu is enough." ”
Qin Feng's heart moved, and he was about to answer, when he heard Xie Ning chuckle, "It's just the right time for Qixi Festival." Beijing is prosperous, and it must be very lively by then. ”
"There was no curfew that day, and there was a lantern festival in the city, so you can go and see it."
"That's what I mean," hearing him mention the Lantern Festival, Xie Ning bent his eyebrows, and shook the letter in his hand not without showing off, "Miss Wei invited me to take a night tour of Qixi Festival, if there is time, I will go to join in the fun." ”
When he heard the word 'Miss Wei', Qin Feng's eyes darkened in an instant, but after seeing the eager smile on Xie Ning's face, he stretched his brows and asked casually, "Do you want to go with the Wei brothers and sisters?" ”
Xie Ning nodded and added, "She also said in the letter that she would bring one or two friends. ”
"How about I, then, with you?"
Hey, when Xie Ning heard this, he saw a casual look on the other side. Thinking that it was a whim, he didn't ask much, and happily answered: "Okay, I'll reply to her." ”
