Chapter 4: Mending the Heavens (Part 3I)
"War is a man's business, and women better go farther!" If Li Wan'er heard this, she would definitely come forward with a theory. But listening to Li Ying'er's heart, it aroused a soft warmth.
She knew that her husband was doing everything possible to protect himself and the hard-won marriage between them. My sister was right back then, Zhong Jian is not as smart as Chai Shao and his second brother, but Zhong Jian will not disappoint everyone who is sincere to him. will not exchange a woman's happiness for a personal future.
"What else did you overhear?" Thinking of this, her face turned crimson, and her heart was as sweet as drinking honey. Although she knew that as a qualified woman, she shouldn't indiscriminately inquire about the conversation between her husband and her staff, she couldn't help but ask Cui'er, who came to report the situation.
"How dare the slave eavesdrop on the master's conversation. The slave maid was ordered by the lady to deliver hot soup, but accidentally let the words get into her ears. The slave maid went to wash up, and tried to forget all the words before breakfast! Holding back the laughter in her stomach, Cui'er bowed down and pleaded guilty.
"You're getting bigger and smaller!" Qi'er jumped up in anger and was about to fight. The little girl Cui'er has been used to laughing with her since she was a child, how could she be frightened by this little trick. He slipped under her armpit, hugged her head and shouted, "Madame spare your life, Madame spare your life." The slave has a poor memory, and when she does, she can't remember anything! β
The master and servant laughed together, and the shadows of more than half a month disappeared. When he was tired, he sat side by side on the edge of the bed again, and lowered his voice to speak to himself.
"Didn't Miss say that because of my uncle's temperament, you won't blame him for how he chooses?" Sticking out her tongue slightly, Cui'er questioned the other party with what she had just said when she heard the news of the court's marriage a few days ago.
"Alas!" Qian'er put away her smile and sighed softly, "If he doesn't take me to heart anymore, even if I stop it, can I stop it?" If he always puts me in the forefront of his heart, even if I don't speak, how can he ignore my feelings! But in this way, many brothers have been disappointed......."
Those people weren't entirely right! Besides, all the benefits brought by Princess Sui are made up, how can you be so good to him, Miss! If you want me to see it, our aunt is a smart person. Know how to grasp the happiness in front of you, and don't expect those ethereal prosperity! β
These words simply spoke to Ying'er's heart. A woman's family is selfish, and no matter how far-sighted she is, she will not take the initiative to share her husband with others. What's more, as soon as that person comes, he will climb on top of his head by virtue of the identity behind him. "Just you can talk!" She smiled and was disgusted, her pink neck slightly bent, "But that Yang Ji'er is really hard to say whether it is a blessing or a curse......
"I heard Zhou Daniu think the same thing. He also didn't like another person surnamed Yang to meddle in Boling. He said that the newcomers may not be able to adapt to Boling's system, and if they rely on their identities to point fingers, they may only make mistakes. Besides, everything is busy at the moment, and Boling doesn't have many soldiers to send south! β
"Da Niu has never liked to look at people by their origins. It has to do with his own experience. Li Qi'er commented softly, "Zhao Sima's words may not be completely unreasonable, but the most important thing at the moment is how to gather more people to help!" β
Thinking of the news that people were about to go south, Ying'er's mood gradually fell again. Although the husband has always refused to bow to the world in order to protect himself and the ideas in his heart. But as a wife, she can't help but worry about her husband's safety. If the news from outside the country is true, the time for the Turks to move south in a big way should be around March next year. The husband chose to go north to fight the enemy instead of going south to avoid trouble, which was actually tantamount to giving up the opportunity to compete for the world. Defending the border for the country can achieve his great reputation, but after fighting to the death with the Turks, the Boling army no longer has the strength to compete with his own mother's family, Wagang army, Jianghuai army and other heroes.......
"I think General Zhou is more pleasing to the eye than everyone else. Especially when the surname is there, there is a gloomy aura all over his body. Fortunately, it wasn't him who came to discuss the matter last night, otherwise, I don't know how much effort I have to make my uncle waste to convince him! Cui'er glared at a pair of big bright eyes, and angrily complained for the hostess. If I were you, I would have found a way to get him away from my uncle! β
"A man must have a horse, a hound, and a fox!" Ying'er commented in a low voice. After all, she is a person who grew up in the Tang Mansion, and she sees the problem much more comprehensively than ordinary women. "If the people around Lang Jun are as upright as him, it's a good thing that they haven't seen it......"
"Anyway, I see that he is urging his aunt to marry a princess after losing you, so I can't wait to quietly give him a sword!" Cui'er responded angrily.
"If you see someone who doesn't like your eyes and hurts your hands, the world will be messed up a long time ago. He did his duty....... "Qian'er sighed softly again and said.
Before Cui'er could defend herself, her eyes were drawn out the window by the sound of footsteps on the snow. She saw Li Xu walking towards the back hall, quickly stood up, cleaned up her hair and makeup in the mirror, and suddenly, her heart was as flustered as when the two met for the first time, "You go to the door to pick it up first, and I'll go over to pick up ......!" β
As soon as she finished speaking, Cui'er had already opened the door from the inside. A cold wind carried snowflakes and flew in with Li Xu's figure.
"Close the door, close the door. Don't let the heat out. Is Madame awake? Did you instruct the kitchen to prepare breakfast? Xuzi didn't know that Ying'er was waiting for her, and asked while stomping off the snow on her feet.
"I'm already awake, I'm ......" Cui'er responded with a smile, and halfway through her words, she saw that the hostess had already walked to the man's side. The two pairs of eyes were instantly attracted to one place, and there was silence between heaven and earth. Knowing that she didn't need to waste her lips and tongue any more, she squatted down and quietly retreated into the ear room.
"Is Lang Jun tired?" After a while, Yu'er finally asked a tasteless sentence.
In matters of military affairs, Li Xu has never avoided his wife. The intelligent Qian'er has a unique way of looking at problems, even wise people such as Zhao Ziming and Shi Defang sometimes don't think as far as she can. "Don't be tired, the Turks will be allied, Ziming and Da Niu suspect that they will be bad for the Central Plains!" He smiled and relieved, stretched out his big hand, and held Ying'er's fingers in the palm of his hand.
The blend of cold and warmth, like a glacier flowing through the verdant fields, brings people infinite comfort. She smiled and happily placed her hand entirely in the center of her husband's palm. Follow the other person to the carbon basin, sit side by side, and whisper. "Next time I go on an expedition, I'll go with you!"
The pressure outside her palm suddenly increased, and she raised her head and looked stubbornly into her husband's eyes. There are some words, in fact, you don't need to say much, you can feel them clearly in each other's hearts. Asahiko knew she couldn't refuse, so she chuckled lowly, her beard fluttering up and down.
"It's not necessarily that dangerous. With so many tribes coming side by side, not all of them must choose Zhuo County for the breakthrough. I thought about it carefully, and the enemy against me, that is, the soldiers and horses of Ashina Lifu's army, had a stronger desire to fight. Gu Tulu and Shi Bi were originally suspicious of each other, and as for the Miscellaneous, they would not be able to send more than 10,000 troops......"
"I won't let Lang Jun fight against a strong enemy alone!" Qi'er interrupted Li Xu's explanation, "Never!" Afraid that her husband would not accept it, she raised her voice to emphasize. Since you become husband and wife, you should share blessings and misfortunes. You won't be left alone! β
The husband and wife sat by the charcoal fire, and they both felt the rolling heat wave surging in the depths of their blood. 'The women of the Li family are not burdened! She didn't say anything, but Xuzi knew what she was trying to express. 'I won't let you suffer the slightest grievance! Xuzi didn't make it clear, but Xu'er understood this intention better than anyone else.
"Woo-woo-woo-" The early morning horn blew through the clouds and announced the beginning of a new day. Outside the silent window, the footsteps of the shift changing soldiers slowly sounded. "Be quiet, keep quiet. The Shogun has been busy all night, and now he has just rested! "There were faithful brothers who shouted in thick voices, but they did not know that their voices were loud enough to shake the trees.
Li Xu looked at Qian'er with a smile, and it happened that Qi'er also raised her head and looked at him again. The two nodded to each other, and they completed an agreement. Then they slowly let go of each other's hands and slowly walked to the table.
"Is Lang Jun still resting?" Qi'er smiled apologetically and asked.
"Let's have breakfast together. I ate both dinner and supper in the barracks. You rest early in the evening, there's no need to wait for me! Just like ordinary couples, Li Xu told with a smile.
If it weren't for the troubled times at the moment, the two would be an ordinary couple. Snoring, grinding teeth, arguing, giving birth, life is mediocre, but it can be quiet. But now, being able to sit quietly and have a meal together has also become a luxury.
"Lang Jun has thought about informing my father of the warning of the imminent invasion of the Turks?" After a while, while adding food to Li Xu, Qian'er asked.
Li Xu paused for a moment, trying to be as tactful as his wording. "In the team of Tang Gong who went south to the side of the Qing monarch, it is said that there are thousands of Turks!"
He didn't want to expose his dissatisfaction with the Li clan in Hedong. Although the other party is one of the culprits in colluding with the Turkic invasion, it is his wife's maiden family after all, and the blood connection is still cut no matter what.
"My father was a vassal to the Turks, but he was not necessarily willing to let the Turks into his backyard. If he wants to replace the Yang family, he can't bear the notoriety of letting the Li family lead the Hu people into the Central Plains! Xuan'er smiled and whispered to brush away the fog in front of Xuzi's eyes.
