Chapter 42: Return to the South
"Ahh
The next moment, the black shadow violently covered her mouth and cursed in a low voice: "Shut up!" It's me! ”
Yao Duran looked at it fixedly, only to see someone coming, it turned out to be Du Yan? For a moment, she didn't know whether to be happy or afraid.
Du Yan saw that she recognized him, so he slowly let go of her. Yao Duran sat up with the quilt in his arms, shrunk himself into the bed, looked at him vigilantly, and asked in a cold voice: "General Du, what are you doing in my tent in the middle of the night?" ”
Du Yan sneered at her, grabbed her arm and pulled her over, and between the pulls, she smelled the smell of wine on his body. It turned out that he had drunk.
"You let go of me! If you do this again, I'm going to shout! Then it will alarm people, look at how your general will step down!" Yao Duran struggled to defend himself.
Du Yan ignored it, but said coldly: "Yao Duran, I just want to know, how did my sister die?" ”
Yao Duran saw that he was still holding on to this matter, and then he realized that he had always been suspicious and never let go. Now taking advantage of Qiao Fengzhi's absence, he sneaked in and asked her.
Thinking about it, Yao Duran said unceremoniously: "How else can you die?" She was infected with flower willow disease, if she didn't die, could she be a fairy? ”
When the words fell, I only listened to the "pop"! Du Yan had already slapped her hard.
Yao Duran was caught off guard and was beaten on the bed, her soft green silk was also messy, her cheeks burned hotly, and she saw blood dripping on the bed, only then did she find that the corners of her lips were bloody.
Yao Duran was humiliated and unbearable, and he pounced and hit him indiscriminately, biting and grabbing if he could, and scolded a bunch of angry words in his mouth: "Your Du family really doesn't have a good thing!" Even if you kill me, your sister won't survive! She has flower willow disease and will die sooner or later! What do you want if you're not reconciled? Can you still change your life against the sky? And your lady! There is no evidence, but it adds fuel to the fire! As a woman, don't you know how to say a few words to save your husband trouble? ”
Du Yan didn't seem to expect her to be so spicy, and he was stunned for a while. When he came back to his senses, he suddenly didn't know what to do, so he could only let her beat him in a daze, and as a result, he was beaten back and forth, and even his face was scratched by her, and the slightest stinging pain began. Du Yan was tossed by her to sober up, he restrained her hands, and his tone softened: "Okay, okay, I couldn't help but make a move when I drank impulsively, I'm sorry for you." ”
Yao Duran was also stunned for a moment, she was ready to fight with him, who knew that he actually said such a soft sentence at a critical time. Yao Duran no longer sprinkled, panting and sarcastically in a cold voice: "Come less!" What a drinking impulse can't help but shoot! If it weren't for Qiao Fengzhi, you would have wanted to kill me! ”
"Who said that!" Du Yan scolded, suddenly took her into his arms and held her down, and then kissed her on the lips fiercely.
A burst of warmth and the smell of wine hit, and Yao Duran had a blank space in his mind for a moment, and immediately resisted, but he was forcefully buckled the back of his head and did not move.
In a hurry, Yao Duran bit his lip hard, and a smell of blood spread between the lips and teeth of the two.
"Shhh ”
Who knew that his voice fell, and he slapped her unexpectedly, which made him completely stunned.
Yao Duran beat happily and scolded: "You dignified general, you actually sneaked into my tent in the middle of the night and moved my hands and feet lightly! Is it the work of a gentleman? ”
Du Yan's handsome face was extremely ugly, as if he was going crazy. He grabbed her wrist again and said angrily, "Gentleman? So you like gentlemen? If that's the case, you shouldn't choose Qiao Fengzhi! He and his master should cooperate with the outside world, collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country, this is what the gentleman is for? ”
Yao Duran blurted out: "This is righteousness! The destruction of North Vietnam is also the general trend! ”
Du Yan was speechless by her, and nodded angrily: "Good, good, good." Then you should follow the righteous Qiao Fengzhi! You think he's a simple man? Let me tell you, he, like his master, has no little love for righteous people! There will be your bitter fruit in the coming day, and you will remember it for a long time! ”
Yao Duran pushed him hard: "Don't worry about it!" Get out of here! It is better not to happen again tonight, or there will be a lot of people in the camp, and if any rumors reach the ears of your lady, she will not eat you, but will swallow me!" ”
Du Yan was pushed off the bed by her, Leng Jun's face turned blue, and he pointed at her and said, "You are really stupid!" Don't bother to care about you! ”
After scolding, he angrily lifted the curtain of the tent, hid without shying away, and disappeared into the night with a swagger.
Everything finally calmed down, as if nothing had happened. Yao Duran sat in a daze for a long time before he felt that his heart was beating again, and he was alive, and at the same time, there was a faint pain all over his body.
The two wrists were pinched by Du Yan and swollen around, one cheek was also swollen, and the taste of blood could be tasted in the mouth. Yao Duran let out a long breath and thought indignantly, this was really a nightmare in and out of dreams.
……
After surviving the second half of the night, early the next morning, Yao Duran finally looked forward to the good news, that is, the army was going to leave for work today!
Early in the morning, Lu Yan hurriedly came to serve her to freshen up and change her clothes, and said happily: "Madam, you will set off today, and you can't go wrong with your decision." Your Highness has ordered carriages to be prepared for several of your ladies and dependents. At this moment, Captain Gao has also been ordered to lead the army into the palace to replace His Highness's men! As soon as they returned, they set off! ”
"yes, okay." Yao Duran's expression was sorrowful. Her whole body ached, and her bones felt like they were falling apart.
"Ma'am? You...... Your face doesn't seem to be right......" Lu Yan still saw it.
Yao Duran smiled reluctantly, stroked his face, and said, "Usually Qiao Gongzi slept outside, but without him last night, I rolled out of bed in the middle of the night, and one side of my cheek was swollen, hey......"
Lu Yan suddenly realized, and while looking at her cheek, he said, "Madame, this is a crime. Later, when the slave maid brings you breakfast, she will bring an egg and put a dressing on your face. ”
Yao Duran smiled at her: "It's okay." ”
……
Half an hour later, the cadres who remained in the palace withdrew from the palace and returned to the camp with boxes of gold, silver, jewelry, and curiosities. After those treasures returned to Nanqian, they had to be handed over to Emperor Qiandi and charged into the treasury.
Huo Jingcheng gave an order, and the soldiers withdrew their tents and loaded a large number of equipment onto the army's baggage trucks, and there were more people, so it didn't take much time.
Yao Duran was arranged to ride in a carriage with Ning Wanshu, and Xie Yuanzhi led Du Ningsheng in a carriage. When Yao Duran and Lu Yan were about to get into the carriage with their baggage, Du Yan was also helping Xie Yuanzhi into the carriage. In the middle of the night, the two inevitably met each other. Du Yan's handsome face really had two more scratches, and they were impressive. And one side of her cheek was still swollen, and the two looked at each other, avoiding them at the same time.
The more Yao Duran thought about it, the more ridiculous she felt. Who would have believed that last night the two of them who couldn't fight with eight poles actually had a fight.
Just as she was thinking about it, the curtain of the car in front of her was lifted, revealing Ning Wanshu's slightly haggard face, and she stretched out her hand to Yao Duran: "Sister Duran, what are you thinking about standing there?" Come on. ”
Yao Duran came back to her senses, thanked her, and got into the carriage with her hand. Lu Yan then came up, and there were four people in the carriage, and Ning Wanshu's maid Qiu Yan also waited on the car.
Ning Wanshu was wearing a plain dress, her hair was simply combed, and her head was decorated with a few plain white hairpins. The originally bright face was also a little paler and clearer. Yao Duran finished looking, and said in her heart that she was filial to her husband, so she was dressed in plain clothes, so she comforted softly: "Sister Ning, please also mourn." ”
Ning Wanshu listened, looked bitter, and said, "Thank you, sister." ”
Yao Duran remembered something and said, "Speaking of thanks, I also want to thank Sister Ning for the Hetian jade line." ”
"My sister is polite, it's just a roll of silk thread, it's really not enough to worry about."
The two chatted a few more words, and the wheels under their feet rolled, and the team finally set off in a grand way. The cavalry opened the road, the infantry followed, and in the middle were several baggage carts, and Huo Jingcheng and the others were also riding horses in the middle, which seemed to be not far from their carriages.
Yao Duran lifted the curtain and looked out, the surrounding scenery was slowly retreating, and she was finally about to leave here and set off for Nanqian, she let down the curtain with a sigh of relief, but saw Ning Wanshu staring at her side of the cheek.
Ning Wanshu saw that she found her gaze, and simply asked generously, "Sister Twilight, what's the matter with your cheeks?" ”
Yao Duran smiled bitterly and said, "I said that you are not allowed to laugh at me." ”
Ning Wanshu said: "How can it be, you say yes." ”
Only then did Yao Duran say: "I slept until midnight last night, rolled out of bed, and my face was swollen. ”
Ning Wanshu listened, covered her mouth and smiled: "My sister's matter is indeed ridiculous, but it is also cute." ”
Yao Duran but smiled silently. After pouring two cups of tea, she handed Ning Wanshu a cup and said, "It's a good thing that Sister Ning went to Nanqian with me all the way, but I heard that Sister Ning is going to become a nun after she arrives in Nanqian, which makes me unhappy, how could Sister Ning suddenly have such a decision?" ”
Ning Wanshu listened, a pair of beautiful eyes darkened a little, and sighed: "Hey, good sister, although the world is big, how can I have a place?" I didn't want to stay in this sad place of North Vietnam for a moment, so I had to leave. As for becoming a nun, it is also a helpless move, so it is a way out. ”
Her answer was still the same as Yao Duran heard, understatement without more detailed content, Yao Duran knew that she didn't want to mention more, so she comforted her a few words and stopped talking.
It shook lightly and slowly all the way, and it was not until the afternoon that Huo Jingcheng gave the order to order the army to repair in place for half an hour.
The attendant brought dry food, and the four masters and servants ate some of the tea on the car. Ning Wanshu lifted the curtain and saw that the spring light outside was excellent, the warm breeze was harmonious, and the road scenery was beautiful, so she invited Yao Duran to go down and scatter together to stretch her muscles and bones.
After a long noon journey, he had already left the city and came to the mountains and fields outside the city. The spring of May is bright and dazzling, the road is lined with wildflowers, and in the distance, there are endless green fields. Several people got out of the carriage and looked at the scenery, and their spirits were lifted.
