Chapter 5 A Farewell to the Dead

The end of the sky, the corner of the sea, half of the acquaintances. A cloudy wine is full of joy, don't dream cold tonight.

Time urges people to go, how do you know what you want from the bottom of your heart?

Xia Ji finally wore women's clothes under the guidance of Yun Niang Dundun, and she was slim and elegant, coupled with the heroic spirit between her eyebrows, it had a unique flavor.

Father-in-law Xi greeted him behind the door, and sang in a thin voice: "General Xia, the time has come, it's time to go." ”

Yun Niang's face was full of joy, but her eyes were nostalgic, there was no General Xia in the Great Cloud Kingdom, I don't know when I would be able to live in peace?

Eh, she sighed faintly in her heart, but she didn't dare to show it on this happy day.

Ignoring the urging of her father-in-law outside the house, she carefully stroked Xia Ji's black and shiny hair that had been maintained by her recently, combed it to the end, and continued to read in her mouth: "Nine combs and nine sons are in a row, and ten combs are old enough for the husband and wife to be white." ”

Comb it to the end, and the ends of your hair ripple.

Outside the house, the corners of his father-in-law's mouth were slightly hooked, and the corners of his eyes were slanted, listening to Yun Niang's singing in the house, disdainfully sneering, our family wants to see if it can be white-headed? !

It's one thing to live or not to live.

In the corner of the side, there are quietly placed mahogany multicolored snails and food boxes decorated with flowers, birds, and beast beads, shining with the faint light of royal dignity.

Xia Ji looked at himself in the bronze mirror, his lips were stained rouge, his eyes were stained with tears, his heroic sword eyebrows grew obliquely into his sideburns, he was wearing a red wedding dress, and he got up: "Let's go." ”

She even had a day to put on a wedding dress in Xia Ji?!

sighed, pushed the door out, and did not ignore the coldness that flashed in the eyes of Father-in-law Xi, Xia Ji smiled faintly, what was she afraid of?

This life belongs to His Majesty, no matter whether he loves it or not, what is the matter with her!

"Slow!"

As soon as she stepped out of the door, Father-in-law Xi stopped her in a whisper, followed by the purple silk in her hand, and glanced at her eyes: "General Xia, ah no!" Isn't it okay for a bride to marry with a sword? ”

It looks like an inquiry, but it's actually a warning.

Xia Ji smiled slightly and then nodded, obediently took off the sword in his waist and handed it to Yun Niang, patted her hand, and said softly: "Yun Niang, parting is imminent, in the next poor and white, there is really no precious gift for you, this Qingfeng sword is my personal thing, give it to you, don't dislike it." ”

Yun Niang was a little embarrassed, but she still held it solemnly with both hands, and the corners of her eyes were slightly moist.

"Precious!"

Xia Ji clenched his fists, resolutely turned around to say goodbye to this barren summer mansion, and turned away.

Yun Niang stood behind her and did not greet her, but held Qingfeng in both hands and looked at the sky in a daze, the sun was shining, it was really a good day!

The suona outside the Xia Mansion played in the sky, the big drums shook the sky, and the firecrackers burst into bursts, obviously she was happy, but she was a little uneasy in her heart, looking at the sky, as if the human eyes were looking at God, how did she feel that this day was going to change? !

Ten miles of red makeup, red and glamorous.

The Emperor of the Great Cloud Kingdom arranged it with all his heart, and there were a lot of people, talking and laughing.

But Xia Ji felt the cold to the bone, his hands trembled slightly, and he couldn't even seem to hold the red silk, his ten fingers were white, and he could barely sit in the sedan chair.

"Get up!"

Xia Ji felt dizzy while sitting in the sedan chair, and when he came to ease up, the boiling laughter in his ears had long since disappeared.

Along the way, the shadow did not appear at all, and Xia Ji thought to himself that maybe he had really found a new master, right?

That's fine, that's fine.

I was stunned in my heart, and I married the Western Turks, who swore to be the enemy in this life, and I don't know if it was an insult to the ancestors of the Xia family in the past dynasties?

Xia Ji was thinking in a chaotic way, and suddenly felt the sedan chair stop, and the unique voice of Father-in-law Xi sounded outside: "The lady of the Xia family came out and separated from the capital." ”

Outside the long pavilion, by the ancient road, the grass is green. The evening breeze helps the willow flute, and the sunset is outside the mountain.

Xia Ji walked out of the sedan car, and saw that it was so late, and the sunset covered the earth wall of the capital with decaying grass, and the artemisia grass in the pavilion was deep.

To be honest, Xia Ji felt that she didn't have any special feelings with the capital in the first half of her life.

If you want to say special, I'm afraid there is only the small courtyard where she practiced martial arts when she was a child, and the wall that she was lazy and the girl who swayed by on that bright afternoon.

As soon as Xia Ji turned around, he saw that Father-in-law Xi had placed a delicate food box, brought a glass of wine, and held it up in front of her: "The emperor gave Tubo tribute grape wine, General Xia drank it." ”

Xia Ji looked at the swaying wine in the jade wine glass in the hand of his father-in-law, and took it with a light smile, the dark purple wine rippled in the glass, reflecting the sunset.

She didn't seem to smile, and her father-in-law looked at her as if she wasn't smiling.

Xia Ji raised his head and drank it, and the crimson liquid of the excessive drinking slowly flowed down his neck, like meandering blood, and the sweet and sour taste spread in his mouth, but his heart was bitter: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your love!" "Nod respectfully in the direction of the capital.

When did you eat the maid's sweets, five or six? Xia Ji shook his head, he didn't expect to be able to taste the sweetness today, he was really emotional.

"Then let's get on our way."

Father-in-law Xi shook off the dust and continued to ride a horse and follow the sedan chair.

Overnight, he hurriedly whipped up, regardless of whether the sedan chair was in the summer machine or not, and finally rushed to the border between the Western Turks and the Great Cloud Kingdom.

Xia Ji was just dizzy, and it could be seen that the sedan chair men arranged by His Majesty for her were all practitioners, which was really exalting her.

sneered, with how smart she was, how could she not think of what His Majesty wanted to do, it was just a willingness to fight, a willingness to suffer.

The fog has just cleared, the light is faint, and the deep grass and trees in the suburbs have become a desolate border, Xia Ji looked around, from her military point of view, the surroundings are open, the vision is clear, it is indeed a good place for people to easily find corpses.

I'm afraid another big war is inevitable.

Father-in-law's cool gaze was projected on Xia Fuselage, cold as ice.

Xia Ji smiled slightly, and wanted to speak, but what he didn't expect to gush out was thick red blood, blood splashing, soaked in sand and bright red wedding dress.

Father-in-law Xi squatted down and looked at Xia Ji who fell to the ground: "General Xia, don't blame our family, our family is also acting on orders." While carefully wiping the pale fingers splashed with blood with a purple silk.

"Also, Your Majesty said, if you go down to see General Xia, remember to say hello to him, and Vice General Huang is doing well now."

Xia Ji's eyes, which were about to be closed, suddenly widened, looking at the sky.

Father-in-law Xi said softly, got up and casually threw the blood-stained purple silk on Xia Ji's face, and wiped his hands again in disgust, "Let's go." ”

The hoofs of the horses roared, and the crows neighed......

The purple silk was swept up by the yellow sand morning breeze, and fluttered to the forest path behind him, until it fell on the head of the Absolute Shadow who was evading the endless pursuit, and as soon as the Absolute Shadow took it, he was shocked!

……

Xia Ji held his breath hard, looked at the sky, and his heart changed, isn't Vice General Huang his father's close old subordinate, and he was the one who threw himself on the horse that time.

The last scene of his father being trampled by an arrow through his heart is vivid, and Xia Ji already understands it in a blink of an eye.

The most tragic battle situation in history is because someone told him, and Deputy General Huang worshiped the marshal because he successfully completed the task and took the opportunity to win his trust.

A mouthful of blood vomited from the corner of Xia Ji's mouth, and he didn't even have the strength to wipe it with his fingers, hateful! didn't avenge his father in the end, I'm afraid that the poor fate of the Xia family will end here.

Looking at the sky where the black clouds pressed the city, he smiled slightly, Your Majesty, you collected military power, destroyed the Xia family, and tried in vain to throw her body here to provoke a war between the two countries, you are not greedy enough to swallow the elephant, you will regret it sooner or later!

The history of the Xia family's foolish loyalty is finally over, and Xia Ji closed his eyes with a smile.
