Chapter 3: Heaven and Earth (Part 8b)

After determining that the contradiction between Fang Guoqiang and Si Qin was indeed a misunderstanding, Zhang Songling's mood immediately relaxed a lot, and he was more energetic in doing things, and he went down the mountain early the next morning and picked up Xiao Qinglian with two black circles under his eyes from Lao Haas's house.

Although he still can't make up his mind about how to treat Xiao Qinglian in the future, as a young man, there is a beautiful woman who is obedient to him by his side, and his mood is always more comfortable than facing a group of big men who can smoke flies every day.

Xiao Qinglian rode out a few days ago to relax, and then there was no news, the palace was waiting very anxiously, at this moment the guards on duty at the gate saw her and a burly black-faced man talking and laughing and walked back, they all felt very surprised, and then looked closely, and found that the person who came was actually the guerrilla leader Zhang Songling, who had not appeared on the grassland for more than a year, and was even more surprised, and quickly stepped forward to pull the reins, helped the two of them to dismount, and at the same time sent a small servant to run in to report to Queen Siqin.

Not long after, the majestic horn sounded, the main gate of the palace was wide open, Queen Siqin was dressed in costume, and greeted her in person, the scarlet carpet was paved along the bluestone path to the steps of the main hall of the palace, Zhang Songling saw this, and knew that Siqin was holding fire in his stomach, so he quickly raised his hand and saluted the other party first, and complained with a smile: "What are you doing, it's not the first time I've come to your house, and suddenly I made such a big show, didn't I want to drive me away." ”

"Don't you dare." Si Qin smiled, shook his head indifferently, and a certain noble aura that rejected people thousands of miles away shot out, "You are a big cadre of the Eighth Route Army, and you can come to my house as a rural landlord, it is condescending to be noble. ”

"You,." Zhang Songling was so suffocated that he didn't breathe, and almost fainted, "Siqin, my Queen Siqin, if you say so, it's better to just pick up the whip and whip me a few times, I'm not here for more than a year, the guerrillas do not do well, but didn't I come to the door to apologize to you, even if you are angry, at least let me go in and make what I need to say clearly." ”

"Apologize, I, the queen canonized by the Kuomintang and the representative of the feudal landlord class, how dare I accept the apology of your Eighth Route Army." Si Qin glanced at Zhang Songling fiercely, and still felt that there was an evil fire burning in his heart, "If you have anything to say, just say it here, so as not to stain the soil of our palace on your feet and tarnish the prestige of your Eighth Route Army." ”

"You ,,。" Zhang Songling was slapped twice in succession, his eyes turned black for a while, and when he didn't know how to continue, he saw Xiao Qinglian walking quickly to Si Qin's side, gently pulling up the latter's sleeve, shaking it, and begging in a low voice: "Sister Siqin, the guy surnamed Fang is sorry for us, but it's not about Brother Zhang, he doesn't know at all." ”

"Shut up, it's really useless." Si Qin shook off Xiao Qinglian's fingers vigorously, and scolded with vertical eyes, "People don't look down on our sisters at all, you still speak for them with a shy face, and the good men in this world are not all dead, except for their guerrillas, they can't find a decent one." ”

The first time she was reprimanded loudly by Siqin in public, the Mongolian girl Qinglian immediately had red eyes, tears rolled down her cheeks like beads, Siqin and her were like sisters, seeing her crying, her heart was also sad as if there was a blunt knife cutting, she opened her arms and took her in her arms, choked and said: "I'm not scolding you, I'm scolding myself for not having long eyes, so I became a joke, and I caught you in vain."

"Woo-" Xiao Qinglian was aggrieved and sad again, lying in Si Qin's arms and letting out a sad voice, "I originally wanted to find a secluded place to hide, but since then, I haven't seen anyone again, who expected, who expected to meet devils on the way, they, they arrested me, and said, I said that I would be sent to the city to be a camp prostitute, thanks to Brother Zhang, who shot them and snatched me back." ”

"Poor boy, you, you here, what's the pain?" Listening to Xiao Qinglian's thrilling words, Si Qin immediately forgot about her own troubles, patted her back to comfort, raised her head, glared at Zhang Songling with teary eyes and said: "This time you are lucky, if the lotus seed has three longs and two shorts, I, I will never give up with you and your guerrillas." ”

"No, no, Lianzi is a blessed person, when I met her, the little devil had been chased by Li Laojiu and them into a lost dog, even if I didn't make a move, Lianzi would not be in danger." Zhang Songling did not have the habit of taking credit from others, smiled and explained in a low voice.

"Li Laojiu, which Li Laojiu, the one under Zhou Heicarbon." Si Qin's attention quickly shifted to Xiao Qinglian's true life-saving benefactor, frowned, and asked repeatedly.

"Well, it's Zhou Heicarbon's brother Li Laojiu, and now Li Ying's deputy in the independent battalion." Zhang Songling nodded and responded frankly.

"It's a lot of things, why don't you let the little devil catch this girl, lest she don't have a long memory." Si Qin gently pursed the corners of his mouth, said with a sneer, lowered his head, and saw Xiao Qinglian lying in his arms and didn't dare to speak, raised his hand, and slapped the latter's buttocks, "Dead Nizi, I have no conscience, in order to say good things to stinky men, I actually lied to me, you wait, wait for the guests to leave, and see how I expose your skin." ”

"Sister Siqin" Qinglian snorted, broke free, and ran back to the palace with a red face, Si Qin stomped a few feet at her back, and continued to scold: "Come back, don't run if you have the ability, since you dare to do it, you must dare to admit it, run, where else can you run, hmph, wait for me to free up my efforts, and then clean you up." ”

After scolding, the anger in his heart was almost emanated, he turned his head, glanced at Zhang Songling again, and counted down with a straight face: "How can I still have the courage to come to the palace, it turns out that I have already found a good shield, saying, when you saved her, did you already have a good idea in your stomach, knowing that I care about this girl, so I specially used her to show favor to me." ”

"Lord Wang, my sister-in-law Siqin, you can't talk a little bit about reason." Zhang Songling was in a dilemma when asked, grinned a few times, and responded in a low voice, "The grassland is so big, if it weren't for the coincidence, how could you let me meet her, besides, I want to show you goodwill, there is much easier way than this, why take the risk to intercept and kill the little devil,." ”

I don't know if the word 'sister-in-law' in the first sentence worked, or the facts stated in the last few sentences persuaded Si Qin, after the queen heard this, the frost on her face quickly melted, glanced at Zhang Songling again, and pouted: "Hmph, how do I know why you want to take risks, you are all men who do big things, and there are more flowers and intestines in your stomach, one is more than the other." ”

"That sister-in-law, you really wronged me." Zhang Songling first smiled and called Qu, and then lowered his voice and added, "Sensei said no, even if there are flower intestines, I will not use it on my own family, I came to your palace today, on the one hand, to escort the lotus seeds, so as not to encounter any trouble on the way, on the other hand?"

He deliberately sold a pass, and then lowered his voice, "I have a report for Brother Long here, I need to find some local famous people to do some verification, if you have time"

"No time, no time." Si Qin's head immediately shook like a rattle, but his body turned sideways without obeying the call, making way to enter the palace, "I've had a lot of things to do lately, and I don't have that much time to spare, but since you came to beg me personally, put the report down, and when I have time, I'll help you review it one by one." ”

"Poof." Before Zhang Songling could pick up, there was already a maid at the door who couldn't bear it anymore, turned around, and tried her best to cover her mouth, and the other palace personnel also turned their heads sideways, so as not to see their smiles by the queen, and slowly settle the account after the autumn.

"What are you laughing at, eating weasel urine, and not going in yet, rolling up the red carpet,." Si Qin quickly realized that he was out of shape, and raised his eyes again, scolding everyone.

When everyone heard this, they immediately rushed into the door like rabbits, rolled up the red carpet to welcome the distinguished guests, and carried them back to the warehouse to be moldy, and at the gate of the huge palace, only Si Qin and Zhang Songling were left in a blink of an eye, and the two shook their heads opposite each other, raised their legs and strode towards the courtyard, while walking, they slowly talked about the details of asking for merit for Zhao Tianlong.

In order to eliminate Si Qin's prejudice against Fang Guoqiang, Zhang Songling had to start from the beginning, break it and crush it, and introduced in detail the hard conditions of the "258th Regiment" within the Eighth Route Army regarding the marriage of cadres, the current level of the Blackstone guerrillas corresponding to the regular troops, and the two feasible plans for Zhao Tianlong to bypass the conditions and start a family as soon as possible. He has already started to do it, but he is afraid of the thoughts of other cadres and fighters, so he doesn't dare to let too many people know. ”

"Him." Si Qin didn't expect Fang Guoqiang to do so much for himself and Zhao Tianlong in secret, he was stunned, his face was full of disbelief, "How could he, you, you won't come to coax me, little fat man, if you dare to deceive me in this matter, I, once I find out, absolutely, I will never forgive you in this life." ”

In the end, she was looking forward to it and worried at the same time, staring at Zhang Songling's lips with her eyes, lest the latter say a "yes".

"How can I, if I lie to you, why should I let you see black and white." Zhang Songling felt unbearable in his heart, lowered his head, and responded with a laugh, "Besides, Brother Long can marry you, it is a blessing that he has cultivated in several lifetimes, and it is just a matter of being a brother if he doesn't help him, will he still dismantle you and let him fight for a lifetime." ”

"It's good to beat a generation of singles, who called him such a big thing, and he didn't reveal it to me at all." Si Qin hated and stomped her feet a few times, her eyes instantly turned red again, all the worries and grievances for more than two months disappeared at this moment, at this moment, she really wanted to find a room, cried happily, and told herself happily that Brother Long was still the original Brother Long, and it had not completely changed because he was an officer of the Eighth Route Army.

"That's not possible, I'm in a hurry to drink your wedding wine, sister-in-law, you won't be able to live a long time, and you will even have to save money for a few tables of wine banquets." Zhang Songling laughed, his eyes full of blessings to his good friend.

Si Qin was embarrassed and replied with a red face, "Who is your sister-in-law, there is no question on his side, and I haven't thought about whether to marry him or not, a guy who doesn't know anything other than riding a horse and shooting a gun, who should be"

"I really don't plan to get married." Zhang Songling smiled and stretched out his hand and grabbed the meritorious report in Si Qin's hand, "Then I don't want to waste this meritorious quota, hurry up and take it back and judge others, Lao Zheng, Lao Ma, Xiao Zou, they have not contributed much to the guerrillas recently." ”

"How dare you." Si Qin glared at him fiercely, snatched the report over, and clutched it in his palm, as if it was a stack of legendary treasure maps, "Hurry up and enter the house, I'll let the people below cook the meat for you to eat, mare's milk wine is there, see if you can't kill you." ”

"Obey Her Royal Highness's Divine Commandment." Zhang Songling laughed and teased, followed Si Qin to the main hall of the palace, and the red plums in the garden were blooming in the spring.
