Chapter 4 The Jade Tent
The troops led by Yang Qice withdrew to a secluded and hidden wood, and deep into the forest, camp tents covered with the banners of the Great Zhou Dynasty appeared.
Yang Qice was originally the protector of the Golden Court, but he was defeated and retreated to this place, and temporarily camped here.
Because there was no rear supply, Yang Qice had no choice but to choose to fight to support the war.
After Yang Qice returned to the camp, he looked at the woman who was sleeping on his chest, and couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart, this woman's heart is really big. Yang Qice jumped off the horse and gently hugged Lin Yixiao in his arms.
Ignoring the strange gazes of the soldiers, Yang Qice hugged her and walked straight to the camp where he was resting.
......
Seeing that after the pro-soldiers led by Yang Duhu came back, only the woman Yang Duhu was holding in his arms did not have any supplies, and the soldiers who stayed in the camp were in the clouds, Yang Duhu would be interested in a little girl? And still a beggar? Wait a minute, doesn't Yang Duhu have a habit of cleanliness? Although everyone thought so in their hearts, no one would be stupid enough to ask.
After Yang Qice put Lin Yixiao on the bed, he covered it and went out of the camp.
Looking at the neatly arranged pro-soldiers in front of him, Yang Qice ordered to rest, and the pro-soldiers dispersed one by one.
The soldiers who had just gone through the baptism of war sat together in groups of four or five, roasting the fire and drinking wine, and the doctors who accompanied the army were non-stop bandaging the wounds of some wounded personnel.
Because Yang Qice suddenly gave up the battle and issued a retreat order, which caught the Great Zhou soldiers off guard, this raid was in the clouds, although it achieved a lot of results, but did not seize any materials, all in all, this raid was undoubtedly a failure, and if you want to raid again, it may be even more difficult.
Beside the bonfire, a slightly younger soldier took off his helmet and said to the slightly older soldier beside him: "Lao Liu, who did you say was the person Yang Du was hugging?" ”
"How do I know, you ask me? However, Yang Duhu has always loved to be clean, but the person was wearing rags and had a lot of dirt on his body, Yang Duhu actually carried her all the way back, and brought her into his resting tent, maybe some old friend. ”
......
Near noon, Lin Yixiao woke up dimly, looking at the unfamiliar scenes around her, but there was an inexplicable peace of mind in her heart. Recalling falling asleep in Yang Qice's arms, Lin Yixiao's cheeks flushed slightly, remembering that he didn't know the man's name, but why was he so relieved to be with him? By the way, what about others? After thinking about it, Lin Yixiao began to look around, except for her, there were only four words to describe in the empty tent, clean and tidy.
Lin Yixiao, who grew up in the courtyard of the deep palace since she was a child, had never seen a military tent, and after looking inside the tent, she walked to the door curtain with great curiosity and opened the door curtain.
The bleak north wind outside the tent contrasted sharply with the scene in the tent being roasted warm like spring by a pot of red charcoal.
The two soldiers were guarding the door, and when they saw Lin Yixiao, they blocked Lin Yixiao's way with their spears, and said to Lin Yixiao with a resolute and angular face
"The general is dealing with military affairs, and I ask the girl to go back and have a good rest, if there is anything, wait for the general to come back."
Lin Yixiao wanted to ask where this was, but when he saw the banner of Da Zhou outside the tent, he didn't have to think about it to understand where this was, but he didn't know who the general in the soldier's mouth was. Were the women who were captured with them also rescued by this man?
Lin Yixiao returned to the tent, and she was already hungry, and her stomach screamed. Hearing the protest of her stomach, Lin Yixiao's cheeks were flushed for a moment. It's a shame that there is no one else here, otherwise Lin Yixiao would be embarrassed.
Soon, two soldiers guarding outside the tent opened the door curtain, and a man dressed in black lacquer basalt fish scale armor walked in, Lin Yixiao recognized at a glance that this person was the man who forcibly "captured" himself on the horse.
Looking at Lin Yixiao, who was covered in dirt, Yang Qice looked back and gave a few words to the soldiers guarding outside the tent. As the door curtain closed, Yang Qice walked straight to Lin Yixiao, and when the distance between the two was less than a foot, Yang Qice paused, and at this time, Lin Yixiao finally saw Yang Qice's face clearly.
Yang Qice's eyebrows and sword eyes, angular and angular, maybe after a long time on the battlefield, his skin is bronze, glowing with a healthy luster, exuding a strong rigorous self-discipline, not angry and self-assured, that is a special temperament belonging to the military, the most attractive thing is his eyes, those cold eyes like ancient wells and deep pools looking at Lin Yixiao, as if there is some kind of magic, deeply attracted Lin Yixiao, she felt that she was gradually sinking, and then Lin Yixiao heard the low and magnetic voice: "Who are you?"
"Little girl... Surname... Surname... Lin is also Xiao. Lin Yixiao lowered his eyes and said softly, the man in front of him had an indifferent expression, and his body exuded endless majesty, which made people dare not approach, seeing him like this, he couldn't help but be a little timid.
Because she was too close, Yang Qice could clearly see Lin Yixiao's white jade-like skin, and could smell the faint fragrance of the girl on her body.
Time seemed to freeze, and suddenly Lin Yixiao's stomach growled again, and this time Yang Qice was in front of him, Lin Yixiao knew that Yang Qice must have heard it, thinking of this, Lin Yixiao's cheeks were instantly covered with redness, like a fiery maple leaf in late autumn.
Lin Yixiao lowered her eyebrows and bowed, not daring to look at Yang Qice's eyes again.
Looking at Lin Yixiao, Yang Qice continued with the same expression: "Where is your home?"
Although the words were very cold, they resolved Lin Yixiao's embarrassment at the moment.
"Huaibei City..."
Lin Yixiao, Huaibei City, obviously has never been here, why does she feel so familiar with her, and why is the extra woman figure under the peach blossom tree so similar to her? Is it a coincidence?
Just when Yang Qice thought so, the door curtain was opened again, and the two soldiers who were just guarding the door, one with a basin of water and the other with a food box walked in, Yang Qice turned around and bowed slightly, and the soldier quickly put the food box on the table, and the basin was placed in front of the bed, without saying a word of nonsense, and withdrew from the tent.
......
Looking at Lin Yixiao, who was still standing in place, Yang Qice's sword eyebrows frowned, and he couldn't help but say, "Do you want me to help you wash?"
"No... No..."Lin Yixiao was so frightened that she hurriedly waved her hand, and instantly blushed with shame because of Yang Qice's words.
Yang Qice turned a deaf ear, took off the towel he hung on the tent, put it in the water, rubbed it, and then picked it up and wiped Lin Yixiao's face.
Lin Yixiao was stunned in place, then took a step back, and the shy Caixia instantly flew all over her cheeks and said, "I... I would..."
After saying that, he stretched out his jade hand and wanted to take the towel from Yang Qice's hand.
Yang Qice then grabbed Lin Yixiao's jade hand, and pulled her in front of him domineeringly, just like on horseback, the hot breath hit Lin Yixiao's ears, and the voice like old wine in the deep alley sounded: "Don't move."
The domineering is undoubted, Lin Yixiao only felt that she couldn't move when she heard it, so she had to stand there obediently, like a sculpture, and didn't dare to move.
Lin Yixiao looked at Yang Qice blankly, although his eyes were ruthless but affectionate, he couldn't imagine that an iron-blooded man like Yang Qice would have such a tender moment.
After wiping her cheeks clean, Lin Yixiao seemed to be a different person, her hair like silk satin slid down her shoulders, although she couldn't talk about the country and the city, but she was like a hibiscus out of the water, graceful and elegant.
Her red lips are red without dots, her eyebrows are delicate, and her translucent eyes imply autumn waves, like stars and the sun and moon, with her fair skin and snowy skin, she looks fresh and dusty, and her temperament is extraordinary.
"Wipe it yourself." Yang Qice let go of Lin Yixiao's jade hand and handed her the towel.
Lin Yixiao finally came back to her senses at this moment and took the handkerchief.
"I... Can I know your name? Lin Yixiao asked cautiously, she didn't know the man's temperament, but she could feel that he had no ill will towards her.
"Yang Qice."
Yang Qice took out his clothes and threw them to Lin Yixiao, his voice was still cold, "Change my clothes for the time being." ”
"Ahh Hmm..."Lin Yixiao took the clothes and lowered her head and was silent, blushing with the evening Caixia, red and translucent, dazzling, Yang Qice's sudden proposal made Lin Yixiao instantly don't know how to answer, it is not possible to wear his clothes, it seems that it will not work.
"I won't look at you, come over for dinner after the change."
It was still a commanding tone, but at this moment, Lin Yixiao felt very embarrassed, and then, Yang Qice sat at the table with his back to Lin Yixiao, and Lin Yixiao wiped his body with a twist.
Soon, after the sound of squirming, Lin Yixiao changed into Yang Qice's clothes, although they were a little wide, but they were much better than before.
Lin Yixiao carried the wide corners of her clothes, her little hands clutched her clothes tightly, she felt that her palms were sweating, and she came to the table very unconfidently, Yang Qice had already brought out the meal, and a burst of fragrant fragrance hit, Lin Yixiao's long-closed taste buds were resurrected, although it was coarse tea and light rice, but at this moment, for her, why not a delicacy?
Sitting at the table, Lin Yixiao looked at Yang Qice, who was sitting opposite and repairing his bracers, and said, "Yang... Yang Duhu, don't you eat it? ”
"I've eaten it, and it's for you."
Lin Yixiao picked up the chopsticks and was about to put the vegetables in her mouth when she suddenly stopped, her parents, I don't know where their parents are at this time? Is it safe?
Yang Qice looked at Lin Yixiao and found that her eyebrows were slightly frowning, and her face was lightly worried. immediately stopped the movement in his hand, his sharp ink-colored eyes seemed to pass through Lin Yixiao's body, and asked in a loud voice, "What's wrong?" ”
Yang Qice's voice was deep and deep, which instantly woke Lin Yixiao, and Lin Yixiao replied softly: "Ah... Not... It's fine, I just don't know where my parents are at this time... Whether it is safe or not. With that, the sadness in his eyes became more and more intense.
Lin Yixiao ate elegantly and decently, and her heart was full of thoughts, revealing a trace of sorrow from her eyes from time to time. After a long time, Lin Yixiao finished eating, gently put the chopsticks next to the bowl, and said softly to Yang Qice: "I... Can you go back to Huaibei City to find my parents? ”
"I can't."
"But..."
Lin Yixiao seemed to want to say something, but was immediately interrupted by Yang Zhice's cold words.
"Stay here honestly"
With that, Yang Qice put the wrist guard back on his wrist, got up and walked out of the tent without saying more.
