Text Chapter 59: Two years in the snap

The sun and the moon are like a shuttle, time is like an arrow, and with only a dazzling effort, Yi'er stayed in Beikaicheng for two years and more than three months with Du Ziwu and his wife.

After more than two years of brocade clothes and jade food, Yi'er has changed too much, and the original body bones that have not yet opened are now like budding flower bones, on the verge of blooming! The face is not powdered but beautiful, the skin is soft and watery, condensed as fair, the facial features are delicate and picturesque, and the pupils are cut like a touch of autumn, beautiful as a dream but full of heroism!

Now is the third year of Qiming, Du Ziwu was in July of the first year of Qiming to Lianzhou to take office, according to the law of Dahui, the local chief official is for three years, at the end of this year, Du Ziwu should step down and return to Beijing to report on his work!

For more than two years, for the Dahui Empire, it was actually not peaceful, and the cavalry of the Zhihan Kingdom disturbed the pass from time to time in the northern border of Mo. This Zhihan country was originally founded by a nomadic people, and the cavalry was strong, and it was important to come and go without a trace, which made the border guards a headache.

In March last year, Emperor Qiming worshiped Chang Yuanzhong, the governor of the left army of the five armies, as the general of the Dangbei, led an army of 100,000 to attack the Northern Desert, and in June of the same year, the good news came back, Chang Yuanzhong defeated the main cavalry of Zhihan in Shahebao, which was known as the great victory of Shahebao. Emperor Qiming's great joy, give a decree to commend! By October, heavy snow fell in Mobei, ice and snow covered the mountains, and Dahui Erlang, who went deep into the hinterland, was struggling and miserable, and Chang Yuanzhong ordered the troops to retreat. Unexpectedly, when the Khan of Zhihan Kingdom Samu made a mistake and Chang Yuanzhong retreated, he personally led a large army to raid at Tifoshan, and Chang Yuanzhong led the main force of his personal guards to meet the enemy, but in the wind and snow, the arrow fell from his horse, and the three armies were in chaos for a while, and he was killed by Samucuo and scattered.

At the critical time, when he was in the army as a lieutenant of the Tun cavalry, the prince of Ningguo suddenly led an army to kill from the rear of Samcuo, and Samuco was shocked, and was beheaded by the prince of Ningguo with a knife, and the army of Zhihan saw that the khan was killed, how could he still have the heart to fight? Suddenly the army collapsed, scattered and fled, known as the fierce battle of Tifoshan.

At the end of the same year, due to the death of Samuco Khan, Zhihan was in civil strife, and Emperor Qiming issued an edict to overcome many hardships and dangers and go straight to Huanglong!

In March of the third year of Qiming, the prince of Ningguo first led the army to break through the city of Kexi, the king of Zhihan, and Zhihan destroyed the country.

This battle lasted a whole year from March of the second year of Qiming to the end of March of the third year of Qiming! After this battle, the Dahui army was mighty, and the small countries outside the border paid tribute to Dahui to show their subordinate friendship!

Of course, this war is a little far away from Yi'er, but this battle is a topic that everyone talks about, even in those banquets in the inner courtyard of the boudoir, those elegant and noble ladies and ladies will often talk about it, especially the prince of Ningguo, who shines on the battlefield, is said to be a legend full of mystery!

After listening to it a lot, Yi'er naturally knows a little bit about this battle, the prince of Ningguo, the world is full of exaggerated elements, but one thing is true, this person is only seventeen years old this year, and he can indeed be called a young hero, coupled with his prominent identity, I don't know how many Kyoto nobles will become a dream match in their hearts?

October 23, it is another heavy snow day, Yi'er especially remembers the heavy snow day two years ago, the emperor's holy decree went down to Beikai, and the Tang King was ordered to return to Beijing, Du Ziwu Fang really mastered the military and political affairs of Lianzhou!

When Yi'er arrived at the main house, Li was directing Zhihua and a few other girls to pack up the cage, and the chubby six-pound bun was rolling around on the bed alone and playing bored, when he saw Yi'er coming in, he hurriedly opened his hands and shouted: "Hug, sister, hug!" ”

Yi'er stepped forward and hugged the person, and little Du Yu giggled.

This guy has a good appetite, he is fat, he is only more than a year old and he is a little heavy when he picks it up, it is strange to say, although the little thing is also close to Li and Du Ziwu, but the most sticky person is Yi'er, as long as he is held in Yi'er's arms, let alone others, even his own mother Li can't hold it. He is sticky to Yi'er, Du Ziwu and the Li family are naturally happy to see it, but it's just that Yi'er suffers, and he has to hold such a fat boy in his hands anytime and anywhere!

Li Shi turned his head to see Yi'er, and said: "Hurry up and put him down, this kid only knows how to eat, his body is rectangular, and his hands are sore after holding it for a long time!" ”

Lan Qiao stepped forward with a smile and wanted to take the person over, when the little bun saw it, his eyes narrowed, and he went straight to Yi'er's arms, saying that he would not give Lan Qiao a hug, Yi'er smiled and said: "It's okay, I'll hug it for a while, where is it so easy to get tired?" ”

Li said: "Kite, don't get used to him, he is young now, he can still be hugged, no matter how big he is, what should I do if I can't hold him?" ”

Yi'er said: "If you can't hold it, let's talk about it, my brother is still young, don't kill him at every turn!" ”

Li said with a straight face: "You have to get it, you and your father will spoil him, and in the future, you will develop a little gentleman who goes down to the river to fish and go to the house to uncover the tiles, don't come to me!" ”

At this time, Du Yu came out of Yi'er's arms with a small sword, and pouted at Li's family, and said in a milky voice: "My mother is bad, my sister is good!" ”

He spoke early, and he began to learn to speak when he was just a year old, but the words were blurred, and the words of the mother were very unclear, but Li and Yi'er were used to it, so why couldn't they hear what he said? It's just that he said the word sister very clearly, and sometimes even Du Ziwu is a little jealous of Yi'er at this point!

When Li Shi heard this, he immediately deliberately put on a fierce face on his face, rolled up his sleeves, and made a gesture to come up and beat people. Yi'er was also very cooperative, and hurriedly reached out to cover his mouth exaggeratedly.

But seeing that the little thing was not afraid at all, he giggled, was covered by Yi'er's mouth, and directly took two sips of incense on Yi'er's hand, so that Li couldn't cry or laugh!

Yi'er hugged Du Yu, stepped forward, and said, "Mother, what are you busy packing up?" ”

Li Shi glared at Yi'er and said, "I told you a long time ago, your father's term of office will expire at the end of the year, and you have to return to Beijing to report on work." Your father said before that he has released three foreign appointments in a row, and this time he is afraid that he will arrange an errand for him within the six ministries, and he will not be released again. To be honest, your mother told you to pack your things earlier, didn't you start moving at all? ”

Yi'er smiled and said, "My daughter doesn't have too many things, how can she start cleaning up so early?" ”

Li Shi nodded at Yi'er's forehead, and said with some hatred: "You, you, why don't you have anything to clean up?" In that cage, you have to take it out as soon as possible, and keep it if you want it, and reward people if it's useless, and throw it away if it's really useless, and then see if there's anything to buy, and some things need time to buy. There are also those glazed tables for dressing, Duobao Pavilion for small things, basins for grooming, dishes and chopsticks for eating, etc., as long as you use them well, you can bring them with you when the time comes, after all, you have to walk for several days on the road, and you don't need to use those things at the post station......"

"Mother-in-law..."Yi'er interrupted Li's coquettish voice, "Mother-in-law, don't say it, it makes my daughter's head hurt." These things have their own Qingli place, and my daughter is lazy, come over to help my mother and bring my brother, do you think it's okay? ”

Du Yu was gnawing on his fingers in Yi'er's arms, gnawing with relish, as if he heard Yi'er calling his brother, he hurriedly raised his head, nodded in a hurry, and said, "Sister hug, sister hug." ”

Li sighed and said, "Although Qing Li is capable, you can't interfere in everything!" You said that Qing Li pointed at someone at that time, what should you do? ”

Yi'er smiled shyly: "Isn't there still a few years, my mother will let her daughter hide for a few more years!" ”

Li frowned and said, "Don't be sloppy with me in this hippie smile, you tell your mother honestly, are you a little afraid of returning to Beijing to live in the Hou Mansion?" ”

Yi'er was stunned, to be honest, she was really a little scared. She has lived in Beikaicheng with Du Ziwu and his wife for so long, she has long been used to this kind of life, and now that she is going back to Beijing, she will naturally live in the Qingxiang Marquis Mansion, and when the population is complicated, she really doesn't know if she can adapt to it?

Li sighed: "It's also my fault with your father, I told you so many dirty things in the Hou Mansion at that time, you are so young, it is normal for you to be scared in your heart, in fact, it's not just you, my mother also wants to live here with your sister and brother and your father for the rest of your life, but ......"

Yi'er smiled and comforted: "Needless to say, my daughter is not afraid, my daughter has you, my father, and my younger brother, and my daughter will not be afraid wherever she goes!" Mother, don't think about it, no matter when, your daughter will be with you! ”

Li stroked Yi'er's head and said, "My mother knows that my kite is my mother's little padded jacket, and if I have a kite, no matter where it is, it is my mother's home!" ”

Yi'er nodded, hugged Du Yu, and leaned into Li's arms together.

Li said again: "By the way, the first day of the next month is the day when your cousin Yanxue leaves the pavilion, and my mother told you before that I married the son of the Dai family in Wanxian County. Yan Xue, this girl, finally called her mother a girl, although her mother has almost broken off contact with the Li family in Tingnan over the years, but Yanxue is a girl in the third room, if you want to say that there is anyone in the Li family in Tingnan who is still worried about her mother, there is only the third brother and three sisters-in-law, so my mother thought about it, as my mother's family, my mother thought that we would rush over to add boxes for your cousin Yanxue on the twenty-seventh or eighth of this month! ”

Yi'er nodded in response.

Li Shi said: "Although the Dai family is not Zhong Mingding's family, there has also been a first slaughter, two Shangshu, the current Ministry of Rites waiter Dai Congli, your cousin Yanxue married in the past, and you have to call the second uncle, the Dai family is a scholarly family, poetry and etiquette have been handed down, and the young ladies and girls under it are good at writing essays and articles, so they are famous." Mother asked you, have you finished reading the grass hall set that your mother gave you last time? ”

"My daughter is done!"

"Probably back?"

Yi'er said a little coquettishly: "Mother, my daughter doesn't want to be that talented poetess, what do you do by memorizing those poems?" ”

"You, you! Although it is said that a woman is virtuous if she is not talented, but adding a little more talent and fame will always have a lot of benefits for you in the future! ”

"I know that my mother wants to say that having that is a name is very beneficial to her daughter's marriage! The daughter didn't understand, was the mother annoying her daughter, and she wanted to marry her daughter earlier! ”

"You ......" Li had to shake his head helplessly!
