The dark clouds hanging over Jiangning finally dispersed, and the heavens and the earth were renewed.

Jiangning, still Jiangning.

Winter goes to spring, and old branches sprout new sprouts.

It is another year of spring and March, and the grass in the south of the Yangtze River flies.

Soft willow branches, sprouting new shoots, light green. The spring breeze blows, and the soft willow branches sway gently like a colorful dancer.

The Qinhuai River is as smooth as a mirror, and occasionally on the bank of the Liuxia River, there will be flocks of ducks, or perhaps white geese, who are driven into the river, flapping their wings, swimming in the period, picking up the splashes of operation.

By the river, the women who came out early gathered together laughing, rolled up their sleeves, revealing their white jade arms, and slapped their wet clothes vigorously while talking about Jiang Ning's recent wind and moon.

The chuckle is shallow, with an incomparably quiet atmosphere.

On the Qinhuai River, which was slightly wrinkled by the wind, the gentle singing of the merchant girl lingered and dispersed in the light mist like a light veil.

In March, catkins are flying.

The catkins flying in the sky, like the white snow in winter, fluttered lightly, fell on the bluestone slab road without a trace, fell in the light yellow grass, and also fell into the Qinhuai River that flowed quietly.

The air is filled with the smell of earthy freshness and the sweetness of willow buds. It's intoxicating.

By the river, the sprouting grasses are connected in patches, stretching all the way outside the city and beyond.

The weather is fine, the sun is shining, the birds are chirping, and the catkins are flying.

It's the season to go green.

Outside the city, countless well-dressed students and maids, smiling and whispering, walked in groups or pairs on the grass in the wild, talking about poetry and the wind and snow.

"Hey, Brother Zhengtai, look, that red hillside is as beautiful as fire, we might as well go over and have a look, how about it?"

A student listened to the words of his companion beside him, but he was not absolute. For a while, I was a little restless. While thinking about it, inadvertently, I suddenly saw the hillside not far away, the hillside that was in full bloom like fire and was full of fire, and suddenly said happily.

"it, you know what. It was a month ago, the Jiangning garrison established a cemetery in order to commemorate the soldiers who died in battle against the Dongying people! Inside, lying down, were the corpses of thousands of Dongying people, as well as the loyal souls of the five hundred sergeants of the Jiangning garrison! Where to go, do you want to die? When Brother Zheng heard this, his face changed greatly, he turned his head, glared at him viciously, and scolded him for not knowing what to do.

"If that's the case, then forget it, it's a great sin to disturb the eternal sleep of the loyal souls!!" The scholar was scolded, but he didn't turn his face. just took a deep look at the cemetery, and said with a sigh in his heart.

For what Brother Zhengtai said, this scholar also knows something. However, at that time, he happened to linger in the Qinhuai flower boat, and he only heard the killing shouts outside resounding all night, and he didn't know the inside story. I thought that the official had fallen off the horse again and was arrested.

After a glass of wine, he slept in the boudoir and kept it warm all night.

"If you really want to see the scenery, there is a good place for my brother!" Brother Zhengtai, retracted his gaze from the cemetery, groped his chin, and after a moment of silence, said with a smile.

"Oh, really, Brother Zhengtai, hurry up!" When the scholar heard this, his eyes lit up, and he urged impatiently.

"These days, the sun is shining and the spring is pleasant. There is a place where everyone is beautiful and the famous ladies haunt the place, the second brother, do you want to go and see it? ”

"Oh, it's such a wonderful place?"

"Heh, you'll know when you go!"

"Then it's annoying Brother Zhengtai, lead the way ahead!"

"Let's go!"

The group departed, leaving behind the scent of cochineal pollen that remained in the air. And the silver verses were blown away by the wind.

An old farmer who walked by with a hoe on his shoulder, raised his head, glanced to the west, saw the cemetery surrounded by flowers, raised his wrinkled hands, wiped his eyes, and cried and sighed: "Erlang! ”

The spring breeze swept through. In the fields, the grass is green, like a wave board bullying.

On the western hillside, the garden is full of red flowers quietly blooming.

Among the flowers, a heavy tombstone stands quietly.

Under the tombstone, a bouquet of colorful flowers is placed, some purple, some red, and some white.

These flower arches guard the solemn and heavy tombstones, adding a little vitality to this relative's cemetery.

Looking up along the bouquet, I saw this black stone, carved out of tombstones.

On the back, are the names of five hundred fallen soldiers. And on the front of the tombstone, there is an epitaph written by the first genius of Jiangning, the youngest emperor of the Great Zhou Empire.

"Sojourners, wanderers, when you walk through this flower-filled cemetery.

Please stop.

Brush off the cobwebs from the tombstone and wipe off the dust on it.

Under this cold and heavy tombstone, the loyal souls of five hundred soldiers rest!

They held their ground and were brave and fearless. They resisted the invasion and fought to the death.

With their blood and lives, they achieved the glory of the soldiers.

It also achieved the peace and tranquility of Jiangning Now, they lie here quietly and sleep here.

Wanderers who live in other places, people who wander the world.

As you walk by, stop your steps and brush away the cobwebs and dust from the tombstones. And a beautiful bouquet of small flowers.

Tell these faithful souls who are buried here.

You have not forgotten them! ”

The spring breeze blows, and the flowers bloom. In the fiery redness of the sky, the tombstone stood quietly. Quietly overlooking the land of Jiangning, it has not changed since eternity.

......, "Strategist, why don't you come with us!" ”

Outside the city, spring flowers are blooming. The grass is green.

Xu Liang, who was promoted and made a fortune, did not have a smug smile in the spring breeze. Some are just deep resentments.

At this time, he was standing at the gate of the city reluctantly, looking at Lu Heng with resentment, his lips trembling, as if it was a parting between lovers.

This guy, because of his meritorious service in fighting against the Dongying people, and moreover, he also exposed Wei Jian's collusion with the Turks, and was promoted by the emperor to three levels in a row.

From the Jiangning guard general of the fifth grade, he was directly promoted to the Zhonglang general of the sixth grade.

Along with the commendation order, there was also an order from the imperial court. Xu Liang, as well as the snow wolf camp that has been trained by Lu Heng for a month, Xu Liang will go to Tokyo to be sealed first, and then he will lead the team to Taiyuan Mansion, waiting for him will be the high-ranking official of the imperial court, Houlu, and the northern battlefield full of wolf smoke.

It's just that what makes Xu Liang unhappy is that originally, he still wanted to go with the military advisor, but he didn't expect that the military advisor shook his head with a smile and told him to take the first step. I still have trivial matters that I haven't dealt with.

Hey, without the company of the military advisor, how lonely this road must be!

Xu Liang glanced at Lu Heng resentfully, and muttered in a low voice, looking very frustrated.

The onlookers couldn't help but shiver when they saw Xu Liang, a 1.9-meter-old man, showing such a pretentious appearance of children's affection, and goosebumps fell all over his body.

", did you talk like that?" Lu Heng was also numb for a while, his body couldn't help shaking, he took a step back, stayed away from this guy, and said with a smile.

"Agui, I'm leaving!" This guy Xu Liang is very abnormal today.

Until now, with his head down, it seems that he is crying.

As he spoke, Xu Liang glanced at Agui deeply, and then reluctantly walked over.

Seeing Xu Liang look so sad, Ah Gui swallowed his saliva, struggled to resist the urge to beat him, coughed, stepped forward, and opened his arms, wanting to comfort this big man and three rough men.

However, when Agui opened his arms and was ready to greet him.

Unexpectedly, this guy Xu Liang suddenly squatted down slightly, stretched out his hand, and came to a monkey stealing peaches.

A Gui's smile suddenly froze on his face. His face suddenly turned like a dish.

"Whew......"

Ah Gui's face turned green, holding his little brother, squatting on the ground, covered with cold sweat.

"Xu Liang, you bastard!" Agui gritted his teeth and roared.

"Haha, you think Lao Tzu forgot. You couldn't get out of bed for three days after pinching Lao Tzu last time! Xu Liang, who succeeded in one move, didn't dare to stay any longer, turned over on his horse, and left with a group of people.

"Haha, Lao Tzu finally got it, wahahaha!"

In the flying dust, Xu Liang's arrogant and smug laughter echoed.

Pinched for three days?

Hiss...... These two people are so interested!

Lu Heng heard the arrogant laughter of Xu Liang in the dust, and suddenly looked sideways.

looked at Ah Gui with strange eyes, and secretly took a step back.

Agui, is it really good?

Ah Gui was flying with spit all over his mouth, pointing to the team that had gone away in the dust, and insulting non-stop.

scolded for a while, but found that the atmosphere around him was a little weird.

Turning his head, he found that Childe, for some time, had been standing far away, looking at him strangely.

Ah Gui was stunned for a moment, and when he saw Gongzi looking his eyes up and down, he suddenly became stunned.

After coming to Jiangning for so long, Agui also knows that the scholars of Jiangning have a good male style.

Seeing Childe's expression like this, he seems to be what kind of person he is.

Ah Gui was speechless for a moment, waved his hands anxiously, and defended himself sweatingly: "Childe, you." Listen to me, I'm not...... Grass, Xu Liang, you bastard, you killed Lao Tzu! ”

Seeing that Ah Gui's face was flushed, Lu Hengqiang held back his numbness and walked over hard. Stretched out his hand, pressed it on Agui's shoulder, coughed, and said against his will: "Don't worry, there is nothing wrong with loving someone." I won't tell Du Shi Niang! ”

comforted Agui for a while, and saw Agui open his mouth wide and drool.

Well, I think it's very impressive!

Lu Heng stretched out his hand and patted Agui's shoulder, and then hurriedly withdrew his hand, secretly wiped it behind his back, coughed, and pretended to say deeply: "Love, regardless of boundaries, is really a truth!" ”

Gui: "......"
