Volume 1 Chapter 25: Goodbye Sister-in-law
This Lingzhou Don't shout loudly: "How dare you! ------ we should have taken on the responsibility of defending the land and the people in Lingzhou, but instead we wanted to make the father and elder of Lingzhou die under the city? β
Tie Miao's eyes were slightly filled with tears, and he said in a deep voice: "No matter how miserable it is, it is rare to be miserable after this broken city?" This official did this just because as long as Dingyuan is defended, a city is here, and Xihu can't go south for a day! β
"Haven't you all had the heart to protect yourself? Xihu is mad and has decided to slaughter the whole city, once we lose the city, under the sword soldiers, there is no life, and the city will die together, since this is the case! I'm still afraid of slaughtering any city, and the whipping corpse is almost the same. Now that Xihu has besieged the city for more than two months, the soldiers and civilians of the city have done their best to defend and serve the king. Now the city is becoming more and more difficult, the imperial court reinforcements have not been seen for a long time, and the soldiers and civilians have lost their hearts and cannot hold on, so this is the only way to do it. If it is successful, you and I will keep Dingyuan, and we will be famous for success; If you are defeated, the city will be ruined, and the soldiers and civilians of the whole city will no longer be lucky. Eat the king's lu, be loyal to the king, serve the king, and shine for a thousand years! Death is a dead ear, and it is exactly what it deserves! Therefore, the city is in the people, and the city is dead! β
Speaking of this, there was a knife-like chill in the tears, and his voice was also cold, as solid as iron stone: "Dingyuan, through the north and south, once it falls into Xihu, it will rise Xihu's momentum, and this Xihu has a lot of capital to resist the imperial court, so no matter how big the sacrifice is, Dingyuan City can't be lost!" Kill a small number of people, save a large number of people! Isn't it worth destroying me to save thousands of miles of rivers and mountains for the emperor? We have sworn to live and die with Dingyuan, even if all the soldiers and civilians of Dingyuan are killed in battle, it is worth it to force Xihu to retreat and win time for the army, this is the great righteousness! β
Looking at the colleagues in the main hall, Tie Miao said again: "If the refugees go out of the city, they may be killed by Xihu, but what if this is the case, these people stay in the city, just delay the death of the whole city, drive them out of the city, or give them a chance to live, now, we can only compare with Xihu!" β
Then don't drive and ask, "Than what?" β
Tie Miao said word by word: "Whoever is ruthless!" "After a month of war, he is no longer the somewhat flustered civil official at the beginning of the war, for the sake of most of the people in the city and to prevent Xihu from going south, even if he bears this infamy through the ages! He stood still in the lobby, maybe his heart was dripping blood, but his face was like iron, he couldn't see a trace of emotional waves, his eyes saw more than just a Dingyuan city under his nose, he saw farther, he wanted to thwart Xihu's plan, keep the emperor's country, the soldiers could shed blood and sacrifice, so why couldn't the people sacrifice?
---------- dividing line---------
When Qin Yu carried the sack and walked to the alley of Yongxi, he naturally remembered his sister-in-law at home.
Originally, I had agreed with my sister-in-law to escort the military rations, and I would be able to come back in a few days. But although he returned to Dingyuan, he was directly pulled to the city wall by the captain at the city gate to guard the city, and under the supervision of the overseer, he never found a chance to slip out. Come home and have a look. I don't know if my sister-in-law is safe and sound in this city, he doesn't dare to think about it!
But I remembered her crying before leaving, and her true feelings were revealed, which was absolutely wrong. If it was at the moment of meeting, would my sister-in-law fall into her arms and cry with joy? So night...... Thinking of this, my body is hot, and my feet are a few steps faster! There was only one thought left in my mind.
Sister-in-law, I'm back.
Qin Yu walked to the front of the house. It was already dinner time, but every household in the city could not afford to smoke a few wisps of smoke. This is the second time Qin Yu has gone home, compared to the last time he was flustered in his heart, it is really a difference between heaven and earth. The last time I went back to this old house, before knocking on the door, I was anxious, thinking about whether I had a daughter-in-law. When I came back this time, I was full of ambition, and I was worried about my sister-in-law who was smiling and smiling, and the closer I got to the door, the stronger this feeling became.
It was still Uncle Wu who opened the door, and when he saw Qin Yu, he was taken aback and was stunned for a while. Only then did he hurriedly say goodbye: "Young master, are you back!?" β
"Hmm." Qin Yu agreed, and before he could step into the courtyard, Uncle Wu turned around, knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Qin Yu, and cried with joy while kowtowing: "Young Master----- Young Master----- you are back."
It's no wonder that Uncle Wu lost his temper. The Hu army has been besieging the city for more than a month, and the city is in chaos, and there is no news of his young master joining the army, and the life of the family is becoming more and more sad. Seeing his young master suddenly appear in front of his house, he couldn't help but be happy
Qin Yu was also a little sad when he saw this, but he couldn't persuade him. He could only forcibly pick up the old man and said, "Uncle Wu, it's a happy event for me to come back!" It's not good luck for you to cry like this again. β
That's a good thing. The old man is the most convinced of this, and when he heard this, he not only immediately shut down, but also was a little panicked, and scolded himself: "I'm really confused, young master, don't be weird------
"Haha, Uncle Wu. You're probably happy and confused. Qin Yu teased,
Uncle Wu's cry alarmed Xi'er, who was busy in the next room, and squeezed at the courtyard gate to look this way. I thought something was wrong, but I saw that Qin Yu was back. He also nodded hurriedly to say goodbye, and Qin Yu also hurriedly raised his hand to show comfort.
Raised her legs all the way through the main courtyard, and as soon as she walked into the inner courtyard, she saw Han Shi walking out of the main house in the middle - she heard the movement in the courtyard, came out to take a look, and never thought about it, but suddenly saw Qin Yu, standing at the gate of the courtyard in military uniform, staring at herself. Unprepared, he couldn't help but froze, almost suspecting that he was in a dream.
Qin Yu saw that the Han family was still wearing the pure white clothes he had when he first met her, and she was as beautiful as ever, and she didn't seem to be affected by the war in the city at all, as if she had an extra covenant. What remains unchanged is the creamy skin, which is lined with several blooming flowers in the courtyard, making it even more jade and white.
Qin Yu was directly stupid - if she was placed in the inner courtyard of the Forbidden Palace, she wouldn't be able to overwhelm the crowd if she didn't believe it! The six palaces have no color, and the king will not be early from now on!
"Sister-in-law," the two of them stood for a while, but Qin Yu opened his mouth, "I'm back." β
"You...... You're back. Han Miaoqing woke up in shock, smiled apologetically for her gaffe, and changed from a beautiful woman who pressed Mei Shengxue back to the gentle and lovely sister-in-law, "Xiaoji, why have you been out for so long and haven't delivered a letter to your family?"
There is a small gap between this kind of meeting and the scene that Qin Yu expected in his heart. What about throwing a hug into the arms?
What Han Miaoqing thought in her heart, Qin Yu naturally had no way of knowing. The last time Qin Yu came back, the family became vibrant, and she really liked those short days.
Qin Yu gently brushed her face before pulling it out, causing her to cry out loud. In the past month, Bai Shi has thought about his gaffe that day over and over again. But he lost the news of Qin Yu in this war, and he couldn't help but worry about him! Thousands of moods, all kinds of tenderness, are a red line of the famous religion, bound to death, knowing that in this life, you can't do beyond the thoughts.
The true feelings of that cry were revealed, and he pretended that it had never happened! In the future, in front of him, he should still maintain the uncle and sister-in-law who has always been cautious, maintain the dignity and dignity of being a sister-in-law, and then take care of this family for him, that is, as for what he thinks in his heart, he can't care about it.
Qin Yu's desire for himself in those days, Han Miaoqing didn't fail to see it. But she thought to herself, the last time Xiao Ji came back, he was already a military attachΓ©, and he became a military attache at such an age as a white body, which shows that he has a great future, how can he delay such a thing as etiquette and morality. His obsession with himself is mostly because he has never seen any girls, and when he marries, he will naturally be fine.
As for the days when he was at home, he said some gossip and gossip, begged for some verbal bargains, and let him go, could he still put down his face and say a few words to him? Thinking of this, she blushed a little and her heart beat a little, and the feeling of peace and joy from before returned to her heart, and she couldn't help but sigh softly.
Han is not a weak person, since he has made a decision, his heart has eased, so he treats Qin Yu as usual.
Before she could say a few words to Qin Yu, Han Miaoqing beckoned Qin Yu to eat, sat at the dinner table, urged Qin Yu to finish the meal, and urged Qin Yu to go back to the room to rest, it was already very late at this time, and Qin Yu, who had been fighting in the city for more than a month, was relaxed and physically and mentally exhausted after returning home. did not refuse the care of his sister-in-law, returned to the house, and immediately lay down and fell asleep.
I don't know how long I slept, but Qin Yu woke up heavily. As soon as I turned my head, I saw my sister-in-law sitting on the table next to the bed, doing needlework. Seeing that Qin Yu had woken up, Han Miaoqing picked up another bowl of water. Handed it over.
"What time is it now?" Qin Yu asked in a daze.
"It's still night, Xiaoji, do you want to rest for a while?" Han Miaoqing asked.
"No, I can't sleep!" Waking up at this point is already Qin Yu's habit, this month, Hu Bing often raids in the middle of the night, so that he always sleeps very lightly at night, and he will wake up after a little sleep, and then he can't sleep anymore.
"Sister-in-law, how have you been here this month? What about Yun'er? Qin Yu suddenly remembered that he hadn't asked about the situation at home, and hurriedly said with concern.
Seeing the genuine concerned expression on Qin Yu's face, Han Miaoqing couldn't help but feel warm in her heart and said slowly. "This month, when the refugees just poured into the city, I felt that something was wrong, and I took all the money from my family to exchange it for food, and now I still have some surplus food at home, you don't have to worry!"
But Qin Yu didn't listen carefully, and his attention had long since flown away!
