Chapter 21: Mountain Flowers
That elite army was wiped out.
After the spies sent told Xia Lingsheng and Murong Jin the news, he noticed that the expressions of the two generals were similar.
The same is regret. The difference is that General Xia's regret is more obvious, while General Murong doesn't seem to care too much.
"Stand down." Having lost thirty brothers at once, Xia Lingsheng felt a little remorseful, he waved his hand and sent the spies away.
Only he and Murong Jin were left in the tent again.
Seeing Xia Ling sitting weakly in his position, supporting his head with his hands, Murong Jin took a step closer, "General, those brothers have long been mentally prepared, and so are you and me. Something has happened, let's just wait for the result. ”
Murong Jin said indifferently, but he was also reasonable.
Looking at Murong Jin, who was careless in the war, and thinking about getting along for more than half a month, he had been like this, Xia Lingsheng couldn't understand, why did Murong Jin always have this attitude and expression?
Didn't he care about anything at all?
Something that moved him?
Of course, there is.
However, Xia Lingsheng probably couldn't imagine that what he cared about most was not things, but people.
It's a person he didn't think of.
Sighing, Xia Lingsheng didn't continue to think about Murong Jin, but said to Murong Jin: "General Murong, I hope your guess is not wrong. Hopefully, those brethren will not die in vain. ”
"No, it won't." Murong Jin chuckled, he was so sure.
Xia Lingsheng stopped talking.
The results will be revealed tomorrow.
The long night.
The sky was slightly bright, and Xie Fanghua woke up.
As soon as he woke up, Chen Zhiyi held breakfast in one hand and bitten the scallion oil roll in the other, kicked the door open and came in.
"Sister is awake?" Chen Zhiyi kicked the door with his foot again.
Xie Fanghua put on her shoes and got out of bed, "Zhiyu always gets up so early. ”
It's been so long, every time Chen Zhiyi gets up first, and when she wakes up, Chen Zhiyi has already bought breakfast.
Today, Xie Fanghua felt that she had gotten up early enough, but she didn't expect her sister to be earlier.
Chen Zhiyi bit the scallion oil flower roll, his hands were free, and the breakfast was placed on the table.
There are pumpkin porridge, shortbread, meat buns, vegetable buns and so on. But there is no scallion oil flower roll.
"I've gotten used to it for so many years. Hey, hey, sister, the scallion oil rolls at this house are so delicious, I bought three of them, and I finished them as I walked. After cleaning it up, Chen Zhiyi realized that she had finished eating the flower rolls, and after swallowing the last bite, she scratched her hair with her greasy hands.
Xie Fanghua shook his head helplessly, "No matter how old you are, you don't wipe your hands." With that, she went to the bedside and took a handkerchief and handed it to Chen Zhiyi.
Chen Zhiyi smiled, then took the handkerchief and wiped his hands.
"Mouth." Xie Fanghua reminded.
"I haven't eaten yet!" Chen Zhiyi shouted.
Xie Fanghua laughed, then sat down, she took a bun, it tasted good, it was a place that Chen Zhiyan often went to these days. Zhiyi also said that she is now familiar with the owner of the breakfast shop.
"This pumpkin porridge is also okay, I bought it after tasting it, it is very sweet and sticky." Chen Zhiyi said, and sat down with him, the smell of scallion oil in his mouth had not disappeared, and there was a sweet taste again.
Xie Fanghua saw that she was eating well and her appetite was better.
During the days outside the palace, Xie Fanghua felt very comfortable, and even ate more than in the palace.
It's a pity that such days won't be too long.
"Sister, I just waited for the boss to make shortbread, and I chatted with him a few words," Chen Zhiyi stuffed half of the bun into his mouth again, and his words were a little unclear, "He said that it was very early today, and even before dawn, the Xiyue army suddenly pressed the formation, but fortunately, General Xia personally went to battle and repelled the Xiyue army." ”
Xie Fanghua listened, and after a long time of aftertaste, it took him to understand what Chen Zhiyi said.
It seems that Murong really did what she said.
While a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, Xie Fanghua was also annoyed that she slept too dead - when she was in the palace, she had always been shallow, and she woke up at the slightest movement, but when it came to the war, the war drums were all over the place, and she actually woke up at this time.
Presumably Gardenia was woken up by the sound of the drums, right?
"Sister?" Chen Zhiyan shook his hand in front of Xie Fanghua.
My sister smiled and frowned, I really didn't understand what she was thinking.
After coming back to his senses, Xie Fanghua smiled and said that it was okay, and continued to eat breakfast.
"Sister, try this pumpkin porridge! It's delicious. Chen Zhiyi pushed the bowl of porridge down in front of Xie Fanghua.
"Good!"
Now that Lu Han has officially sent troops, the army that wants to come to Nanyu will also move to Mocheng City, right?
Thinking of this, Xie Fanghua was in a complicated mood - while she wanted to see Murong Jin, she was afraid that she had mistaken Murong Jin.
Of course, what Xie Fanghua didn't expect was that Murong Jin would come to her.
"How did you know I was here?" As soon as Xie Fanghua saw Murong Jin, he asked, and after asking this sentence, he looked at Chen Zhiyi, who was about to sneak away, and reacted, "Zhiyu said that?" ”
As soon as he heard his name, Chen Zhiyi stopped, and had to explain honestly: "Sister, the two armies are officially fighting, Brother Jin must be busy behind, it's better to see each other now than not later, right?" After that, without waiting for Xie Fanghua to answer, she slipped away.
"Fu Xi, I'll take you somewhere." Murong Jin took Xie Fanghua's hand and jumped out of the window.
Of course, with such a jump, Chen Zhiyi, who was eavesdropping outside the door, began to be angry, "Brother Jin is really excessive!" ”
Murong Jin rode his horse and galloped, and Xie Fanghua was sitting in front of him.
The strong wind blew, which made Xie Fanghua feel a lot more relaxed.
It's a meadow with lots of tiny wildflowers.
Of course, Xie Fanghua didn't know what this place was, she asked Murong Jin, and Murong Jin said that he had found it by accident.
Not long after, Murong Jin took Xie Fanghua to a valley, and at the mouth of the valley, Murong Jin turned over and dismounted, and helped Xie Fanghua to get off the horse.
"Let's go inside!"
In the valley, all kinds of wildflowers grow silently in this corner of the world. As Murong Jin walked, he picked flowers and knitted something in his hands.
Xie Fanghua liked it very much, she walked in front and didn't pay attention to Murong Jin behind her.
Further on, there was a small stream, where wildflowers spread, and some even grew to the edge of the stream, and the breeze blew and brought a little stream water on the nearby mountain flowers, and the sun shone on them, making those mountain flowers shine silver.
"Murong!" Xie Fanghua smiled happily, and when she turned to look at Murong Jin, the other party was holding a wreath in front of her.
There are flowers of any color on this garland, red and blue, dotted on the green grass, even if it is clumsy, but Xie Fanghua thinks that this is very beautiful.
"Fu Xi, I'll bring it for you." Murong Jin smiled as he gently placed the wreath on Xie Fanghua's head.
Xie Fanghua paid attention to Murong Jin's hand, there was a scratch on his left wrist, presumably it was accidentally cut by the grass when picking flowers just now.
"Your hand ......" Xie Fanghua took his hand and blew it, saying distressedly.
Murong Jin didn't care much, just smiled faintly, "A small injury, it's not in the way." ”
yes, out of the way.
Twenty years, he has been practicing martial arts since he was a child, and he often has colors on his body, what is this little injury?
Murong Jin pulled Xie Fanghua to the creek, then let go, rolled up his sleeves and trousers, and prepared to go down to the river to catch fish.
"Murong, can you?" Xie Fanghua saw Murong Jin's thoughts, but there was no stick, and it might be a little difficult to catch fish with his bare hands.
Murong Jin went down to the stream, it was cool and comfortable, and before he could stand firmly, he waved his hand at Xie Fanghua, "It's okay!" As soon as he finished speaking, he stumbled and fell into the water because of the small stone under the stream.
"Murong!" Xie Fanghua teased him and smiled happily, "You still said you could." ”
She naturally couldn't imagine how Murong Jin, who had calluses on the soles of her hands and feet, could fall so easily, and she did this just to make Fu Xi happy.
Murong Jin got up, laughed happily, and then said that it was okay, and then started fishing.
It is said that when the water is clear, there are no fish, but the water is very clear, and the cracks in the stones are full of fish swimming.
Xie Fanghua sat on the grass, propped her head, and looked at Murong Jin's busy figure with a smile, and the troubles in her heart disappeared.
"Murong! I'll get you some firewood and wood! Xie Fanghua put down his hand and said to Murong Jin.
Murong Jin was naturally reluctant to let Fu Xi suffer, but considering that Fu Xi might be bored, he agreed.
Xie Fanghua got up, looked for firewood everywhere, and when he came back, Murong Jin had already caught two live fish.
The little fish's mouth was open, and its body was still beating.
Murong Jin took the firewood, found a thick one from it, smashed it towards the fish's head, and then skillfully disemboweled, hollowed out, and washed the fish.
Coherent.
"Has Murong grilled fish like this before?" Xie Fanghua sat opposite Murong Jin, and when he saw him take out the flint and steel from his arms and prepare to start the fire, he asked.
"Yes, I also grilled fish in Beidi. The fish in Beidi are very fat, unlike these two fish. Murong Jin smiled and glanced at Xie Fanghua, who was full of curiosity, and lowered his head again to continue the movements in his hand.
"Oh." Xie Fanghua answered, and then quietly watched Murong Jin grilled fish.
She ate a lot of the breakfast that Zhiyi bought, but now that it was close to lunchtime, Xie Fanghua felt that she was hungry again.
Especially when I smell the smell of grilled fish.
"Murong, it's scorched!" After a while, Xie Fanghua smelled a burning smell, pointed to the fish and hurriedly reminded Murong Jin, who was looking at him distracted.
When Murong Jin heard this, he quickly came back to his senses and turned the fish over, "Whew-it's good that Fu Xi reminded me ......"
Xie Fanghua laughed at him for being careless, and Murong Jin naturally didn't dare to get distracted anymore, so he didn't look at Fanghua in the process of grilling the fish, but concentrated on grilling the fish.
Until the fish is well baked.
He gave Xie Fanghua a fish with a lighter burnt taste, and then reminded her: "Fu Xi eat slowly, be careful of scalding!" ”
