Chapter Eighty-Nine: An Unbelievable Change (4)
At two o'clock, the southern camp of the Zhou army, which was still lively during the day, finally gradually fell silent, and most of the soldiers in the barracks had rested, of course, there were many of them who couldn't sleep because of excitement, because Xie An had sent a message to hold a celebration banquet in the camp one day later to celebrate the rebellious king Li Yan's ambush and the complete uprooting of the Taiping army's Jingzhou power.
After learning about this from a herald's sergeant, Liang Qiuwu glanced at Liu Qing intentionally or unintentionally, and she was surprised to find that Liu Qing was not as grief-stricken as she imagined, on the contrary, Liu Qing's expression was very calm, as if she had nothing to do with the Taiping Army.
"Are you thinking that the Taiping Army's power in Jingzhou has almost been uprooted, but why is it indifferent?" As if seeing through Liang Qiuwu's thoughts, Liu Qing asked very calmly.
Liang Qiuwu looked deeply at Liu Qing's calm eyes and didn't say anything.
In the end, Liu Qing couldn't bear Liang Qiuwu's faintly threatening eyes, sighed lightly, and said bitterly, "Restoration of the Southern Tang Dynasty, restoration of the Southern Tang Dynasty, if it weren't for this, how could a hero like Brother Chen, who stood up to the sky and the earth and was unparalleled in the world, die unjustly in that forest?" - I hate the Taipings! ”
Liang Qiu Wu looked at Liu Qing's eyes intently, and said softly for a long time, "You... I really like Liang Qiuhao! ”
Liu Qing showed a sweet smile on his face when he heard this, and recalled, "General Liangqiu doesn't know, when I was four years old, my mother passed away, and it was Brother Chen who raised me, and he is the most important person to me......" Saying that, Liu Qing told Liang Qiuwu about some things when he was young, only to hear Liangqiu Wu's eyes show a little strange look.
However, Liu Qing didn't know it yet, and said with great interest, "I remember that when I was young, Brother Chen often carried me to Runan, Chunshou and other places, and watched artists juggling on the streets, like turning stones into gold, turning water into oil or something, those shoddy deceptions, I could guess at a glance, but Brother Chen couldn't guess, his eyes widened, and he shocked the entertainer, and even said that as long as this person is pulled to the Taiping Army, my Taiping Army will not worry about funds in the future, hehehe...... How stupid! ――If those artists really have the ability to turn stone into gold, do they still need to come out to sell their arts to survive? ”
Liang Qiuwu also showed a slight smile on his face when he heard this, but his gaze at Liu Qing became more and more strange.
This girl......
How can the feelings for Liang Qiuhao sound more and more like a daughter's longing for her brother or even her father?
After thinking about it, Liang Qiu Wu asked tentatively, "You... ・・・Do you really like Liang Qiu Hao? ”
"Hmm!" Liu Qing pursed her lips and nodded vigorously.
"What do you like about him?"
"Huh?" Liu Qing was stunned, glanced at Liang Qiu Wu in surprise, and said, "Brother Chen is very good to me・・・・・・ although I also know that it is mostly because of my mother's relationship, but Brother Chen is really good to me..."
This girl is confused......
Liang Qiuwu, who is already a wife, sighed lightly in her heart, but she didn't intend to break this matter, after all, in her opinion, if she said directly to Liu Qing at this time, your feelings for Liang Qiuhao are just a sister's longing for her brother, or even a daughter's longing for her father, Liu Qing will probably jump up like a kitten that has been stepped on its tail, screaming and roaring.
Now that Liang Qiuhao is gone, let her continue to guard her innocent feelings, anyway, she will understand one day......
After thinking about it, Liang Qiuwu suddenly said, "Do you want to hear about Liang Qiuhao's life experience?" ”
Liu Qing's eyes lit up when she heard this, and she nodded vigorously.
Seeing this, Liang Qiuwu and Liu Qing came to the couch together, and said thoughtfully, "Liang Qiuhao is my cousin!" ― The widow of my eldest Uncle Liang Qiugong! ”
"Posthumous ・・・・・・" Liu Qing's face changed slightly, and she looked at Liang Qiu Wu in surprise.
"You guessed well..." As if seeing through Liu Qing's thoughts, Liang Qiuwu sighed slightly and said, "According to my grandfather, when my cousin Liang Qiuhao was born, his father, that is, my eldest uncle Liang Qiugong, was leading an army out of the northern frontier to conquer the grassland, forcing the grassland Wairong tribe to move more than 200 miles north, and he didn't dare to compete with him......"
"Moving more than 200 miles to the north・・・・・・" Liu Qing looked horrified, of course he knew what the concept of more than 200 miles was, it was almost half of the territory of a large county.
"This is a great achievement, but unfortunately, after returning triumphantly, the uncle died violently at the celebration banquet in the barracks......"
"How so?" Liu Qing's face changed suddenly.
"It's not the ・・・・・・ who was killed" Liang Qiu Wu sighed, explaining to Liu Qing the disadvantages of their Liang Qiu family heirloom Wuyan, and then a little sadness flashed in his eyes, after all, it was not just her uncle Liang Qiugong, her biological father Liang Qiujing, how could he not die from the sequelae of Wuyan?
"No wonder Liangqiu has always been a person who has not ......been prosperous," Liu Qing muttered with a shocked face, after all, she only heard that Liang Qiugong and Liang Qiujing died in the grassland and Wuhu in the south of the Yangtze River respectively, but she didn't know that it was just a statement issued by the Great Zhou court.
In fact, few of the descendants of the Liang Qiu family died on the battlefield, and most of them died of emaciation as soon as their tense nerves relaxed after the battle.
"Yes・・・・・・" Hearing Liu Qing's muttering, Liang Qiu Wu also sighed bitterly, after all, the family is not prosperous, and it has always been one of Liang Qiu Wu's biggest heart problems, and it gives her a headache more than her husband who can't resist the temptation of women.
finally came up with a man who was lucky enough to not die back then, but this guy joined the Taiping Army and finally ended up dying.
"When Brother Chen was born, General Liangqiu hadn't been born yet, right?"
"Ah, I'm eight years younger than Liangqiu Hao, his affairs, I listened to my grandfather, when I was not born, Liangqiu Haoshang was one of the four towns of Jijing, the son of Liangqiu in Donggongfu, was quite loved by the first emperor, according to my grandfather, the real candidate for the monarch in the heart of the first emperor back then, was the former prince Zhou Huai Wang Li Yong, who had already passed away, and the deputy general candidate who assisted him, among them, Liangqiu Hao ・・・・・・ honorary title, should be the prince young master!"
"Huh? The young master of the prince? Liu Qing said in surprise, "At that time, Brother Chen was only six or seven years old, so he could become a candidate for young master at such a young age?" ”
Liang Qiu Wu smiled faintly and said, "As long as you defeat one or two generals who are officials in the court at the age of only six years old, you can ・・・・・・ the descendants of my Liang Qiu family, which is comparable to ordinary generals!" ――Liang Qiuhao awakened the fog flame without a teacher at the age of six, and at the age of seven, he was able to skillfully perform ・・・・・・" Speaking of this, she sighed slightly, after all, she is indeed inferior to Liang Qiuhao in terms of talent.
"It turns out that Brother Chen is so amazing...... There must have been a lot of girls who liked him at the time......"
"Huh!" Liang Qiu Wu smiled faintly and said, "When Liang Qiu Hao was in Jijing, he was indeed radiant, but unfortunately, it was like a flash in the pan" Speaking ......of this, Liang Qiu Wu sighed, after all, there are indeed many dazzling characters in Liang Qiu's family, but most of them are short-lived, including her father Liang Qiu Jing.
Suddenly, Liang Qiuwu frowned slightly.
When Liu Qing saw it, he asked suspiciously, "What's the matter, General Liangqiu?" ”
Liang Qiuwu shook her head slightly, sat on the bed and took off her armor, only to see that the bare skin was covered with bruises of different sizes, and there was even a long wound on her shoulder.
"It is worthy of being a rare genius in my Liangqiu family in a hundred years... Holding the injured part, Liang Qiu Wu let out a long breath, recalling that he and Jin Ling'er tried their best to keep Liang Qiu Hao in the river valley, Liang Qiu Wu was very unwilling, but unfortunately, she had no chance to fight Liang Qiu Hao again.
"Is it Brother Chen?" Looking at the injuries on Liang Qiuwu's body, Liu Qing covered her mouth in surprise.
"There should be gold sore ......medicine in the package on the bed," Liang Qiuwu pointed to the bed and said to Liu Qing.
Liu Qing was stunned for a moment, then realized that Liang Qiuwu wanted her to apply the medicine for her, nodded, climbed onto the bed and took out the gold sore medicine from the package, and was about to apply it, but heard a tuk tuk tuk knock on the door of the cabin.
"Who?" Liang Qiu Wu asked in a deep voice.
The knocking on the door stopped, and after a while, Xie An's slightly flattering voice came.
"Wu'er, is it for the husband・・・・・・ can you come in? -I heard Sister Jin say that you were not lightly injured in the river valley, so I specially asked for a bottle of plaster from Sister Jin to invigorate blood and dispel blood stasis, that ......"
"He's a little weak-hearted・・・・・・" Liu Qing reminded Liang Qiu Dance on the side, "Just now you left the table indifferently, he should be a little weak-hearted, right?" ”
“… Glancing at Liu Qing, Liang Qiu Wu said calmly, "Come in!" ――The husband is alone, and the concubine is applying medicine, so it is inconvenient to see outsiders! ”
"Good good ......"
The door creaked, Xie An walked in with a hippie smile, holding a bottle of medicine in his hand, and when he saw Liu Qing sitting on the couch with Liang Qiuwu, his eyes showed a little surprise.
Suddenly, Xie An noticed the injury on Liang Qiuwu's body, hurriedly walked over a few steps, and exclaimed, "The injury is so serious? ”
Seeing the look of concern on Xie An's face, a burst of warmth flashed in Liang Qiuwu's eyes, but when she thought of Qin Ke'er, she felt annoyed in her heart, and said coldly, "Don't you know Liang Qiuhao's ability?" ”
"This ・・・・・・" Xie An smiled and said flatteringly, "Then ・・・・・・ husband will apply medicine for you, okay?" - I heard Sister Jin say that this is her own hand, and it will never leave a single scar......"
Liang Qiuwu was thrilled when she heard this, don't think that she is a general and doesn't care about her appearance, looking at women in the world, how many women will like to leave indelible scars on their bodies? Just look at Jin Ling'er, she still has a grudge against the two knife marks on her face caused when she was eleven or twelve years old, especially after marrying Xie An, it is even more obvious, every time she goes out with Xie An, she has to cover up the two scars with powder as much as possible, so as not to let others laugh at her husband because of the scars on her face.
But then again, there are really few people who have the courage to laugh at Jin Ling'er, who doesn't know what a fierce woman the third lady of Xie Mansion used to be? Joke ghost Ji Jin Ling'er? It's so lively!
Watching Xie An smear Liang Qiuwu's wound with ointment, Liu Qing could only see that her face was red and her heart was pounding, although she also knew that the two were husband and wife.
Compared with Liu Qing, an outsider, Liang Qiuwu's attitude is much calmer, while feeling the touch of her husband's fingers touching her back, she said lightly, "The concubine heard that the husband plans to bury Liang Qiuhao and Liu Qian, the second commander of the Taiping Army?" ”
Liu Qing's heart tightened when she heard this, and she looked at Xie An intently, wanting to hear what he had to say, after all, Xie An was the one who accompanied Liang Qiuhao until the last moment.
"Hmm・・・・・・" Xie An responded cautiously, after all, he really has no position to meddle in the family affairs of the Liang Qiu family, even if he is the grandson-in-law of Liang Qiu Gong, after all, his wife Liang Qiu Wu is the twelfth generation of the Liang Qiu family.
"In this matter, why don't you talk to the concubine in advance? - Although Liang Qiu Hao is the son of my Liangqiu family, the deceased is the greatest, and he still has to be buried in the ancestral grave of my Liangqiu family after all・・・・・・" Liang Qiu Wu looked at Xie An calmly.
"Liang Qiuhao, the cousin of the husband's wife? Isn't he already buried in the ancestral grave of the Liangqiu family? Xie An pretended to look at Liang Qiuwu in surprise, and said with emotion, "It is said that when he unfortunately died, he was only seven years old, which is a pity...... A tiger general! ”
Liang Qiuwu frowned slightly when she heard this, how could she not know that Xie An was avoiding the important and deliberately distorting her words.
"Husband!"!- Stopped Liang Qiu Wu Xie An continued in a low voice, "As for Chen Bei, let's bury it with the woman he thinks about day and night......"
“… Looking at Xie An's serious eyes, Liang Qiu Wu was slightly moved, after all, even if he and Xie An have been husband and wife for more than four years, Liang Qiu Wu is rarely seen with this kind of serious eyes.
Outsiders think that Xie Fuzhong's personality belongs to her Liangqiu Dance is the most stubborn, but only the women know that the most stubborn personality is actually their husband Xie An, don't look at this guy who looks very good on weekdays, but once he shows such a serious look as he is now, no one can make him change his mind.
In this regard, Liang Qiu Wu, who once didn't know Xie An's character, and Su Wan, the daughter-in-law of the Lu family in the Southern Mansion of Jijing, touched nails in front of Xie An.
"I'll think about it......" In the end, Liang Qiuwu still gave in, it should not be said that since she learned that being buried next to Liu Qian was Liang Qiuhao's last wish, she had given up the idea of burying Liang Qiuhao in the ancestral grave.
"Really?" Xie An's face was overjoyed when he heard this, and he said with a smile, "That's ・・・・・・ husband."
"Get out!" Liang Qiuwu said lightly.
"Huh?" The smile on Xie An's face froze.
Glancing at Xie An, Liang Qiu Wu said, "Although you are my husband, this is a military camp!" ― The concubine will ask her to do it for her......" As she spoke, she glanced at Liu Qing, who was covering her eyes with her hands but secretly watching through her fingers, and took the bottle of plaster in Xie An's hand by the way.
"This ・・・・・・" looked at Liang Qiu Wu dumbfounded, Xie An said curtly, "Wu'er, I haven't seen you for months, this ・・・・・・ will kick out her husband, isn't this okay?" ――I want to come to Mai'er, and I miss my husband, right? ”
Liang Qiuwu's face was slightly red when she heard this, of course she missed Xie An, after all, she was twenty-one years old, which was the age of grace, of course, she also hoped to have a warm relationship with her husband, not to mention Xie An's actions when she applied the medicine to her, which faintly aroused a little ** in her heart.
However, she is always a woman with strict self-discipline, which is very different from the woman like the eldest grandson Xiangyu who doesn't care about the rules of the world.
"Get out!" Liang Qiuwu said seemingly calmly, because she knew that if she didn't kick her husband out again, she might really be unable to bear it.
"Okay, well, go out for your husband...... Don't get excited, don't get excited・・・・・・"
How did Xie An know what Liang Qiu Wu thought, and thought that she was still angry, and left the wooden house with a smile, seeing this, Liang Qiu Wu let out a long breath.
"Actually・・・・・・ I'll be fine when I go back to the cabin......," Liu Qing said weakly.
"What?" Liang Qiuwu turned her head suspiciously.
"Actually, you really want to be with him, don't you? Do what only couples can do ・・・・・・...
Liang Qiuwu glared at Liu Qing in shame, handed Liu Qing the plaster he took from Xie An in his hand, and then untied the strip of cloth wrapped around his chest.
Good...... It's so big......
Liu Qing's eyes widened, and she looked at the two beating soft flesh on Liang Qiuwu's chest in disbelief, and then looked at herself, and was hit hard.
In fact, not to mention her Liu Qing, even the eldest grandson Xiangyu and Jin Ling'er and the two daughters have gritted their teeth hatefully at Liang Qiuwu's majestic chest, especially the eldest grandson Xiangyu.
"Huh?" Seeing that Liu Qing hadn't moved for a long time, Liang Qiuwu asked suspiciously, "Don't you want to apply medicine for your concubine?" ”
"No, it's not・・・・・・" Liu Qing came back to her senses and shook her head again and again, but she was embarrassed to say that she was dumbfounded, only that she was distracted for a while.
"By the way, what are you going to do with me?" Liu Qing finally thought of herself.
Glancing at Liu Qing with his spare eyes, Liang Qiuwu said lightly, "Don't worry, the concubine will protect your ......."
Liu Qing might have been wrong when she heard this, bit her lip, and said cautiously, "Actually...... Now that I think about it, he may have just tried to scare me into giving up his plans to kill myself, not to ...... me."
"The concubine knows!" Liang Qiuwu said lightly.
"Huh?"
Glancing at Liu Qing, who was a little surprised, Liang Qiuwu said quite confidently, "Although the husband of the concubine is greedy for women, he will never go to the point of forcing women... The reason why the concubine said that he would protect you was not because he had any intentions for you, but because you were the person Liang Qiu Hao swore to protect to the death! - Although Liang Qiuhao and his concubine have the same surname as Liang Qiu, in terms of friendship, it is still my husband who is even more like him, and they are like brothers! ”
"Then why was General Liangqiu so angry at that time?" Liu Qing subconsciously asked, and then suddenly realized, nodded and said, "Oh, that's right! Understand and understand, but when you see it with your own eyes, you always feel uncomfortable. ”
Liang Qiuwu glanced at Liu Qing with a smile, and suddenly said in a low voice, "Don't call General Liangqiu, if you don't dislike it, just call me sister!" ”
Liu Qing was slightly stunned when she heard this, and said in shock, "This ...... Is that possible? ”
"Didn't you say that you are no longer a member of the Taiping Army? Since you don't plan to serve in the Taiping Army anymore, then you won't get in the way! Saying that, Liang Qiuwu glanced at Liu Qing, and it could be seen that she didn't mean to love the house and Wu.
"That'...... Sister Dance? ”
"Hmm!"
Perhaps, the eldest grandson Xiangyu's bad premonition really came true, and while she won over Qin Ke'er, Liang Qiuwu also got a great help, a woman whose wisdom was comparable to that of her eldest grandson Xiangyu.
On the other hand, there are a few messengers from Jijing, who are galloping towards the southern camp of the Zhou army with the news that Li Mao, the king of Yan, the lord of northern Xinjiang, has raised troops to the south... ・・・
