The school field is built in the northeast corner of Yujin Garden, the terrain is low, the people outside the Nanxun Gate stand on a high place and look in, although it is three or four hundred steps away, the sharpest eyes are only to see the war elephants and cavalry shrunk into a small group of black shadows, but it does not prevent them from seeing the forbidden army being beaten, they all cover their eyes and turn their heads, and see the cavalry chasing the war elephants, all cheering and cheering.

When the divine arm bow was concurrent, and the war elephant fell to the ground, there were shouts all over the street outside and in the wings of the restaurant.

In less than half a day, the battle between humans and elephants in Yujin Garden spread all over the streets and alleys of the capital.

At this time, it happened to meet Ji Qingling who was counting the time and went home from Liufu early.

Walking from Liufu to Jinliangqiao Street, passing through West Street, a group of people bumped into many hawkers from Nanxunmen back to the inner city, blocking the corner.

Ji Qingling sat in the carriage and waited for the person in front to pass by, and he heard someone gossiping outside.

"I really didn't expect that the forbidden army was so unusable, I thought that the security and Guangxin second army were not the most powerful, who would have expected that compared to the forbidden army, it was so powerful!"

"I can't say that, I have a heart or not, the one from the south doesn't know how long I have been fighting with Jiaozhi in Yongzhou, and I say that I am born and cooked twice, so I naturally know how to fight ......"

"Ahh What are you pretending to be! The one in the forbidden army is your nephew, not your son, three thousand miles away, what is there to protect! Since Emperor Taizong to the present, the forbidden army has not seen blood for decades, the hardest time of the year, is two times to show martial arts to the heavens, no matter how amazing, it is just a water-saving drama during the Qingming Festival, dragon boat racing during the Dragon Boat Festival, so raised for decades, it is a tiger, but also to raise a sick cat! Waste into this virtue, don't say it's a cross-toe war elephant, I'm afraid that the soft-footed elephant raised in Yujin Garden to feed people with cocoon grass can't win, and I'm embarrassed to blow it here, according to me, today's scene, it should be so that the Son of Heaven knows what kind of waste he raises next! If you don't rectify it, it will be impossible in the future......"

When Ji Qingling heard this, he couldn't help but open the curtain of the carriage and look out, but saw a few hawkers standing on the side of the road hiding in the shade of a tree a few steps away, while fanning their faces with straw hats in hand, and spitting all of them flew sideways.

It didn't take long for the people in front of him to loosen, and the coachman went forward again on horseback, and the voices of the many people faded away.

Qiu Shuang looked out of the car window, and looked back with a smile and said to everyone in the carriage: "At this time, I felt that I had really returned to Beijing." ”

Qiu Lu smiled and asked her, "What do you mean by that?" ”

Qiu Shuang said: "Whether you are in Ganzhou or Yongzhou, have you ever seen a hawker outside talking like this?" Didn't I just see what the clothes he was wearing looked like, I thought it was the head of the forbidden army, or an official in the Privy Council! ”

Everyone in the carriage laughed.

After Ji Qingling laughed, he suddenly thought of something, sat down by the window, raised the curtain again, looked back at the group of vendors who were walking and laughing, and then sat back in his place, thinking about things for a long time.

The group returned to the house, just now when they arrived at Shenshi, Ji Qingling thought about it, first sent people to the kitchen to make a few big dishes, and then went to Renhe Restaurant to sell roasted chicken, roasted duck, and sheep's head, because he was worried about the hot weather, it was necessary to have some cold dishes, and called ginger shrimp, wine crab, deer breast and all kinds of seafood fruits, and people cleaned up the dining room, first put a half-person high iceberg behind the screen, and vacated the side room in the back alley, and asked people to prepare the bed properly.

According to Gu Yanzhang's figure, she asked someone to prepare a few new clothes from the inside out, and shouted that the kitchen was boiling hot water, and filled the bath barrel in the wing room in advance at the time, and there was a large bucket of cold water, and two familiar servants were waiting inside.

Sure enough, this should be prepared, and it was a little dark outside, and no one was coming back.

Ji Qingling was not in a hurry, he ate something first, because he went out during the day, he was really sweaty, so he went back to the compartment to take a bath, thinking that the person who came was not a guest outsider, so he didn't bother to pick up it seriously, just simply wore homely clothes, and casually took a wooden hairpin, and then forgot about it.

This place has just been taken care of, and before I can reply to two posts, a little girl has come in outside, and said: "Madam, the official is back, bringing guests, please go outside to talk." ”

Ji Qingling put down the pen and went to the hall.

When she entered the living room, the person sitting in the guest seat stood up, greeted her very diligently, and shouted, "Sister Ji! ”

The man's face was thin and his complexion was dark, and because of his black face, his teeth became more and more white.

He was still wearing a gray riding suit, his chest was full of sweat stains, and although the sweat on his face and neck had been wiped dry, his hair was still wet, and even so, his face was still filled with a happy mood.

Ji Qingling couldn't help laughing, stepped forward and saluted, "Brother Zhang!" ”

Gu Yanzhang stood up early, but he was a step slower, seeing that this guest was faster than himself, and said a few words to his wife, he didn't forget to turn his head and ask himself: "Yanzhang, what I sent back to Sister Ji last time, did you give it to me?" ”

Gu Yanzhang answered, and after enduring it for a long time in his heart, he still couldn't help but slander: two fat birds, they still remember it so clearly.

Got closer again, reached out to pull Ji Qingling's sleeve, turned his head and asked Zhang Dingya: "You just arrived in Beijing today, have you been to Zhongshu to hand in the post?" ”

Zhang Dingya said nonchalantly: "As soon as I arrived outside the city, I was summoned by an angel to Yujin Garden, and I didn't have time to step on the ground, where is the idle time to go to Zhongshu!" ”

Gu Yanzhang said: "Where do you want to live now?" ”

Zhang Dingya glanced at Gu Yanzhang first, and said: "When I entered Beijing, Chen Jiedu asked me to live in his house, saying that he had his own family to take care of him, and told me to only go in alone, and I didn't have to take care of anyone else, so as not to go to the post station or inn to live, and no one would take care of it, which was not very convenient." ”

After he finished saying this, he saw Gu Yanzhang frowning, very disapproving, seeing that he was about to speak when he opened his mouth, thinking about the fate of being caught in Yongzhou in the past, he didn't dare to laugh again, so he was so frightened that he hurriedly continued: "How do you guess I told him?" ”

He said: "I said that I have my own house in Beijing, but I am worried about the labor and festivals!" ”

As he spoke, he asked, "Where am I staying tonight?" First of all, I'm going to sleep on a hard bed! ”

While saying, he secretly winked at Ji Qingling, pretending to be very scared, and said with a smile: "Sister Ji, this one of your family is so vicious, and he refuses to say a soft word to me, if he kicks me out at night, you have to be the master of the grass house for me to live in!" ”

Ji Qingling couldn't help but purse her lips and smiled, and asked, "Is Brother Zhang hungry?" If you are hungry, you will eat something first, and if you are not hungry, the back room will be cleaned up, and you can go and change your clothes before coming out. ”

As he spoke, he turned his head and glanced at Gu Yanzhang again, but this time he didn't ask, only looked at him with his eyes.

Gu Yanzhang gently pinched Ji Qingling's arm in his hand, turned his head to Zhang Dingya and said, "Do you want to eat something first, or go to the bath first?" ”

Zhang Dingya said: "I'm sweating, are you hungry?" Why don't you eat a bite with Sister Ji first, just don't be hungry, don't eat more, you two will keep an empty stomach for a while and wait for me to come out. ”

As he spoke, he was about to walk out, looked left and right, and saw a rosin standing at the door, and hurriedly said: "Little rosin, call someone to go to the gatehouse and call Zhang Wu over, he has my luggage in his hand!" ”

Rosin Xiang smiled: "I have already called someone to go, please come with me." ”

While speaking, he led the way in front of him, and explained: "Madame said that the eunuch came to live, and he must have to go in and out often, so he cleaned up the back wing, and there is also a stable in that place, and there is also a back door, if you want to enter and exit, you can only lead the horse out, and there are four wings in that room, which is more than enough for more than a dozen people, and all kinds of things are complete in it, and you are not afraid to move in with your own soldiers." ”

When I got into the room, it was really a big room with a box, and the furnishings were simple and generous, but everything was complete.

Rosin Xiang took Zhang Dingya to the inner room first, and said with a smile: "Eunuch, you rushed all the way back to Beijing, and I don't know if you have time to dry the clothes, I picked out two new ones for you, and the water is good, but it is hot but it is not good to wash cold water, so I prepared a hot one, so as not to let the evil wind enter the body." ”

Zhang Dingya has been in contact with Gu and Ji for a long time, only a little polite at the beginning, and when he got to the back, he never regarded himself as an outsider, and after listening to what Rosin said, he only nodded and touched his body for a while.

He is a general, although it is thick and fine, but he has fought for several years, but he has never had the habit of carrying a purse.

Roin Xiang looked at it and smiled, and said, "Which one is the capital eunuch going to send to beg for money?" It's not a perfunctory outsider, so don't come to this set of your own family! ”

When he said this, he hesitated a little and said, "Didn't the eunuch ask me to help me take a bath and want to give a lottery?" ”

As he spoke, he looked like he was about to step forward.

bluffed Zhang Dingya and hurriedly kicked people out.

For a while, he hurriedly scrubbed for a small moment, changed his clothes, and sure enough, it was worn at home, not to mention the soft fabric, but it still fit very well, and on the chair where the clothes were placed, he saw a few keys worn with black yarns, and the words "two doors", "gates", "wing doors" and so on were pasted with paper.

He hung the black veil in his clothes, pulled a dry towel on the one hand, and went out on the other hand, sat on the bed and wiped his head, and when he was half dry, he reached out and touched the bed - although there was a thin sheet on it, the bed board was very hard, which was exactly what he wanted - there was also a big sunflower fan at the head of the bed, different from those paper fans and silk fans, the wind of this sunflower fan was strong and cold, and then he turned his head to see that there were several pots of ice in the two corners, which were cold and steaming white.

Zhang Dingya stretched out his hand, and hooked a teacup and a teapot on the cabinet next to the bed, the teapot was mostly half full, not ordinary tea, but a light brown drink, drinking into the mouth, light and sweet, I don't know what the recipe is, quenching thirst and quenching fatigue.

He drove for half a month, and it was easy to get into the city, and sure enough, his feet did not touch the ground, so he was called by the emperor to roll the yellow mud and blood on the same battlefield elephant, and took a bath at this time, and rubbed off three catties of dirt all over his body, and his head and body were not as heavy as in the morning.

He sat here and drank tea lightly, and it was very comfortable.

In the end, he was still thinking about a brother and a sister waiting outside for dinner, and it happened that his stomach was also hungry and screaming, so Zhang Dingya stood up and went to the table to take a comb and pull it twice, shaking his clothes and swinging out of the door.

Rosin only sat outside the courtyard, and when she saw him come out, she hurriedly led people to the dining room.

Zhang Dingya just changed his body, and then walked out, he already had a little new look, and when he got to the door, he saw a table of dishes on the table, and moved a small corner, the two people were sitting together, not very close, and there was no intimacy, only one person bowed his head, one person looked up, separated by a person, and they didn't know what to say to each other.

The expression on the face of the person who bowed his head was extremely gentle, and his eyes told him to watch from a distance, standing in place, not knowing whether to walk in or wait in place.

As for the sister Ji who looked up, she obviously didn't do anything, and even the smile on her face was shallow, but she couldn't help but laugh when she looked at it.

Zhang Dingya stood outside the door, holding on to the door frame, looking at the two people inside, his heart was sour, astringent and sweet, he didn't know what it was like for a while, he only felt that it was really good, and he felt that he was really envious.

He didn't think that he was worse than that brother, but each had its own strengths, each had its own benefits, three thousand avenues, all of which led to the sky, but at this moment, he was a little envious.

The world is so big, there are so many women, how can Yanzhang's life be so good, and he has the right destination early......

Where is your own destiny......

The thought was fleeting, and he soon pressed it into his heart, and he only laughed and walked in, as if nothing had happened, and cried out, "Here I am!" ”

When Gu Yanzhang and Ji Qingling saw him come in, they got up with a smile and gave in.

The three of them returned to their seats and sat down, pushed the cup and changed the lamp, took advantage of the next day's rest, and did not tie it very much, and talked about the banquet during the banquet, each comforting himself, and ate a meal for more than two hours, until it was dark, and then they went back to their rooms.

Zhang Dingya didn't realize it, and Gu Yanzhang went back to the room with Ji Qingling, but he couldn't help but discuss it.

Ji Qingling thought for a while, and only said: "Fifth brother, Brother Zhang is out alone, not to mention the side, I see that his expenses seem to be very generous...... It doesn't matter now, if you go back to Beijing to be an official in the future, you will have to take care of it later......
