Chapter 22: Rain and Snow (1)
On the official road of Danyang County, Changmu Xiu rode alone and galloped in the dark night. For many years, he has been alone, doing his own thing, but recently he has often felt lonely. Only when he saw Xiao Qiao, staying by her side, could he feel that there was still a little warmth in his heart. The memories of Huashan when he was a child were the most terrifying moments in his life, but today, he often thinks back to those days when he depended on her.
Turning a corner, two black-clothed scouts followed from the forks on the left and right, parallel to Changmu Xiu's horse, and Changmu Xiu asked in a low voice, "How are you inquiring about things?" ”
One of them replied: "As Gongzi guessed, Master Zhou and Miss Xiao Qiao don't have much contact in private. Hearing that Lord Zhou's beloved wife passed away a few years ago, Lord Zhou was very sad, and he had no intention of remarrying for several years, which annoyed his father......"
Changmu Xiu pondered for a moment, and then asked, "Where is the tomb of Zhou Gongjin's wife?" ”
"On the hill of Juchao County."
Changmu Xiu smiled slightly: "Planing people's ancestral graves will be punished, and we don't have to dig them up, just dig them twice." ”
I didn't expect Changmu Xiu, who has always been old, to give such an order, the two scouts didn't know why, and couldn't help but be stunned, but when they came back to their senses, they didn't dare to ask, so they just arched their hands and said, "Yes......"
At night, freezing rain fell in the sky, falling on the tent, making a rustling sound, the tent was faint or very, Da Qiao Bingzhu was in the tent to pack up Sun Ce's clothes.
It's cold, Sun Ce went to crusade against Wang Lang, I don't know if he can win before the beginning of spring and return, if he has less clothes, he is afraid that he will not be enough to wear, and if he brings too much, he is afraid that it will become a burden, Da Qiao picked it up, picked it up, and it took a whole hour to clean it up.
Sun Ce was busy with business, returned to the living tent, picked up Da Qiao, who was still working, and put him on the couch in a few steps: "Didn't you say that your eyes hurt a few days ago?" Why don't you know that you feel sorry for yourself? ”
Although the two have been married for almost a year, Da Qiao is still inevitably shy when they get close: "I'm fine, let me get up and help you pack your baggage." ”
"These are small things, it matters where your body is. Ying'er, I'm going to go on the expedition tomorrow, you can lie down in peace and talk to me. ”
Da Qiao nestled obediently in Sun Ce's arms and murmured: "Sun Lang, if you can win Wang Lang, the entire Jiangdong will be yours." You used to talk about your ambitions, but you never told me what your ambitions were. ”
"The war is coming, if I say Xiang Yu, you must feel unlucky, then I will tell you someone else. Ying'er, you are full of poetry and books, you should know that Qi Huan, the head of the Spring and Autumn Five Hegemons, my ambition is to be like him, whether he lives in the royal city or not, he can set the world and save the people of Li. ”
For some reason, Da Qiao was particularly uneasy when Sun Ce went on this expedition, but she didn't want her emotions to affect him, so she smiled instead: "I heard that Duke Qi Huan was good, and he accepted several ladies in his later years." ”
Hearing that Da Qiao seemed to be eating flying vinegar, Sun Ce felt a little happy in his heart, and said comfortingly: "How can someone be born cold, maybe if his beloved leaves, he will be so angry." But Ying'er, I will never fail you, my grandson has you in this life, and others really can't look down on you anymore. ”
Da Qiao pillowed his little head on Sun Ce's shoulder, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, but tears rolled down uncontrollably: "Sun Lang, I don't want a savior, I don't want a big hero, I just want you to be safe forever." ”
The cold wind outside the window was wanton, but Sun Ce's heart was warm, he propped himself up and removed his silver armor, so that Da Qiao could be more comfortable: "When I was a child, I was displaced with my mother and suffered from it, and now I only hope to rely on my own strength to create a world, so that our future children and thousands of children can live in peace and happiness." Ying'er, don't worry, except for you, no one can hurt me in the slightest, only you can see me without armor, I will never defend myself......"
I thought that Da Qiao would be a little moved when she heard this, but she giggled: "I don't believe it, not to mention my mother-in-law and younger siblings, will Zhou Gongzi be able to fortify?" ”
"They are my relatives, just like you, and I am naturally unguarded; But unlike you, you are my only wife and the person I love the most...... Ying'er, in autumn, your body has not been very good, speaking of which, we haven't been intimate for a few days, and I'm going to fight tomorrow, so it's better to ......" Sun Ce propped his head, raised his hand and lightly curled Da Qiao's green silk, smiling handsome and seductive.
Da Qiao had long been accustomed to seeing him like this, so he turned his head and ignored it: "You have to ride a horse all day tomorrow, and now you don't have to worry about it, but you are here to trouble me." ”
"What is this, when we got married, we didn't sleep all night, didn't we fight the same day?"
"I'm heartburn and uncomfortable, and I'm still uncomfortable, if you don't let me help you pack your baggage, I'll have to rest early."
Sun Ce felt sorry for Da Qiao in the end, and when he heard her say this, how could he be reluctant to give up half a point: "You rest, I'll clean it up myself." ”
After speaking, Sun Ce got off the bed, and wrapped the burden properly after dividing it by two. Da Qiao looked at his busy figure back and forth, and his heart was astringent. Since he is the love of his heart, how can he not want to be close to him, but he has unspeakable suffering, and he does not want Sun Celao to worry about him. When beating Liu Xuan, the blood marks on his body seemed to be engraved in her mind, and when she dreamed back at midnight, she often woke up, always afraid that Sun Ce would be a good person. This time, he sent troops to fight against Wang Lang, and it was already difficult, how could she let him be distracted for herself?
Just when Da Qiao was stunned, Sun Ce turned around and returned, sat on the couch and said to Da Qiao: "Ying'er, I really can't bear you, can you give me a strand of hair, I will keep it close to me." ”
Da Qiao hurriedly put on a smiling face, picked up the small scissors in the embroidery basket next to the couch, cut a strand of green silk, stuffed it into his purse, and handed it to Sun Ce. Sun Ce was like a treasure, and took the opportunity to pull Da Qiao into his arms: "Ying'er, the so-called married couple, probably like this." When I clear the trouble of elbows and armpits, we will go back to Wu County, and I will marry you again, so that you can marry me in style, and no longer be called a concubine. ”
Da Qiao smiled and held back his tears and said, "Okay...... It's not early, I have to hurry tomorrow, so let's rest early. ”
In the middle of the night, in the land of Jiangdong, thousands of households were still asleep, but the soldiers in Sun Ce's lower part had begun to pack their bags, pull out the camp and lead the horses, and prepared to brave the wind and rain to set off to Huiji County.
Xiao Qiao didn't sleep all night, sitting in the tent with his cheeks back, thinking about Da Qiao's words in the afternoon. She never expected that at this juncture, Da Qiao would be pregnant, and the month was not small.
Da Qiao was unwilling to affect Sun Ce's march and fight because of his body, so he simply decided to hide the matter and return to Wancheng to give birth. But she didn't even know how many months she was pregnant, the car and horses were bumpy, what if there was a good one?
Thinking of this, Xiao Qiao couldn't help but sigh again. Originally, she planned to reject Da Qiao directly, but Da Qiao was teary-eyed, saying that Sun Ce was her life, no matter what, she didn't want Sun Ce to be distracted by herself, how should she be a sister?
