At the beginning of the fifth year of Yuan Shuo, Wei Qing, the general of the cavalry, led 100,000 Han troops out of Shuo to attack the Xiongnu Youxian King.

Wuyuan Captain Liu led three thousand Qiu Ze cavalry to accompany him.

*******************************************************************************

In March of the fifth year of Yuanshuo, an ordinary carriage slowly galloped towards the gate of Chang'an.

"Ma'am, it's here." Outside the curtain, the driver slowed down the speed lane.

"Well, stop at the entrance of the Carmen Clothing Shop," Chen Yansheng commanded without opening his eyes.

There was a low echo from outside the curtain. The coachman screamed, and the two horses slowly got up again.

When she left Chang'an, she rode in a specially customized luxury carriage, accompanied by many relatives and friends, and accompanied by two children in her belly. This time I came back but I was alone, and I actually felt a little timid, listening to the bustling Chang'an City outside the car, I didn't dare to open the car curtain.

If you are not old, you must return to your hometown, and you must break your intestines when you return to your hometown.

She remembered that before leaving Wuyuan County, she asked for a private room in Baiyun, the first restaurant in the county, and waited for Feihong's visit.

Feihong said that the Huainan Weng Lord sent someone to Wuyuan again, and talked with Rong Niang and Meiyu for a night.

Chen Yansheng laughed sarcastically, she was really lucky, she picked it up in Wuyuan City casually, and she picked the dark line of King Huainan.

That Huainan Weng Lord is probably Liu Ling, who is very famous in later generations and has an ambiguous relationship with Liu Che. According to Sima Qian's "Historical Records" and later film and television dramas, this Liu Ling is a powerful character.

It's just that Chen Yansheng is playful in her heart, judging from her investigation through other channels, in this era, the traces of King Huainan's rebellion are not as obvious as those in the history books, at least she hasn't seen anything yet.

While she was thinking, the carriage stopped in front of the Carmen dresshouse, and the coachman was outside the door, saying, "Here we are." ”

"Oh." Chen Yansheng got up, paid for the car, stood in front of the gate of the clothing shop, and looked up to observe the first store he had built by himself in this era.

There is still a lot of traffic in front of the door, and under the sun, the signboard of the clothing shop is a little old after several years of rain and wind, but it still does not lose its style.

It's just a person, and it's not the person it used to be.

When Chen Yansheng went upstairs, he was stopped by a few new maids he didn't know and brought to the hall as an ordinary customer.

"Please come out for a while, Miss Xia." Chen Yansheng smiled and said, the hospitality attitude of these maids is not bad, it is not in vain that she emphasized in many ways, it seems that Sang Hongyang has done her best to help her with the clothing shop.

"Our Miss Xia has something to do at home, and she is not in the clothing shop at the moment." A round-faced little maid on the left hand curtsied, afraid that she would be unhappy, and said, "Why don't I ask other masters to introduce Madame?" ”

"Oh?" Chen Yansheng was a little surprised, and said with a smile, "Then ask Aunt Shen to come out and see it." ”

This time the little maid did not feel embarrassed, bent her knees, and retreated.

Soon, a woman in Tsing Yi came out of it, and the moment she saw Chen Yansheng's voice with a pair of eyes, it immediately lit up, it was Aunt Shen.

"Mother," Chen Yan shouted in a coquettish voice, her eyes turned red unconsciously, and she threw herself into the arms of her godmother.

"Yan'er, Yan'er" Aunt Shen patted her back lightly and kept muttering, "It's good to come back, it's good to come back." ”

"Mother, I asked Xiaohuzi to follow Brother Liu to the battlefield to fight."

After crying, Chen Yansheng remembered to tell his godmother the news of Xiaohuzi.

"Yikes." Aunt Shen immediately became worried, "Will there be anything wrong with Xiaohuzi?" ”

"No, mother." Chen Yansheng smiled and comforted, "Xiaohuzi's kung fu is good now, when he was in Wuyuan, he also grabbed a Xiongnu prince with his own hands." ”

"Really?" Aunt Shen smiled, "I don't ask you to make contributions, as long as you are safe and healthy, by the way, what about Mo'er and Chu'er?" She remembered and asked hurriedly.

"At my master's." Chen Yansheng replied with a smile, "Chu'er is not in good health, and the master has to use acupuncture to recuperate for more than half a month, so I entrust them there." ”

A faint sympathy appeared on the godmother's face, "If it weren't for your difficult birth, the first child would not have fallen into such a disease, that eldest princess," she was a little hateful, "Why did you hit Yan'er?" ”

"Mother, there is no need to say it." For Chen Yansheng, it was Gillian's mother who bumped into her at the beginning, and based on this alone, she couldn't blame the slightest, not to mention that right and wrong were not so clear at the beginning. And her dystocia is entangled in more than just such a little reason, so far, it is no longer the focus to hold accountable, the focus is on Chen Chu's happiness.

"By the way, I heard that something happened to Dongning's family, what's going on?"

"Hey," Aunt Shen sighed, "her mother is sick. Over the years, although Dong Ning has earned hundreds of dollars a day for the Xia family, the Xia family still blames her for eating inside and out, and she doesn't want to see their mother and daughter at all. Dong Ning had to take care of his mother at home, and it seemed that he couldn't delay this spring. Yan'er, do you want to go and see it? ”

*******************************************************************************

Put on a new mask, (This is the treasure she picked up on Tanggula Mountain, it is even better than what Xiao Fang gave her before, Meng Zeran was distressed for several days, but after she gave him a full ten jars of daughter red, he was relieved.) Chen Yansheng pulled on the veil, got on the carriage and horse, and ordered to go to the Xia Mansion. She knew that this was Chang'an City, not a border pass, and there were not many noble relatives who knew Chen Ajiao back then, but it was definitely not nothing. Back then, she was pregnant, and because it was two separate souls, she thought that there was still a difference between her gestures, so she dared to wear a mask to swagger in Chang'an City, and Liu Che was not too afraid to look at her. At this time, she didn't dare to be brave, not to mention anything else, there were at least two people in Chang'an City who could recognize her, one was the eldest princess of Guantao, and the other was Liu Che.

After Xia Dongning joined Carmen Clothing Shop that year, he listened to Chen Yansheng's wishes and opened another side door in Danxin Garden, where their mother and daughter lived, and they did not enter and exit with other people in Xia Mansion. In fact, according to Chen Yansheng's meaning, it is best to build a wall between Danxinyuan and Xia Mansion to completely separate the family. In the end, Xia's mother refused, saying that she refused to spoil the feelings of the family.

Feelings, Chen Yansheng smiled contemptuously, no one is treating you as a family anymore, what are you doing taking care of the feelings of the family?

At this time, she instructed the coachman to park the car at the door of the side gate of Danxinyuan, let the coachman wait outside, and carry his skirt in.

The side door was half a slit open, no one guarded it, Chen Yansheng came in with a strange heart, walking in the garden, and suddenly heard a dispute in the depths of the peach forest, a clear voice, it was Xia Dongning's voice.

She turned around and walked over, looking from afar, under a peach blossom tree, Xia Dongning was dressed in a blue curly robe, soft and bright, standing opposite her, Chen Yansheng raised her eyebrows, it was actually Liu Yanxia. (Khan, do you remember?) I don't remember, please refer to the chapter of Yun Xiang Yi Hua Xiang Rong, I think this name is good, so I grabbed him. ）

"Dong Ning, you believe me, I really had to do it at the beginning."

"You haven't said yet, how did you get in?" Xia Dongning's face was expressionless, and he only asked this sentence.

"That thug surnamed Han back then," Liu Yanxia said upside down, "He coerced me, and I had no choice but to tell him your news." ”

In the distance, Chen Yansheng lowered his eyes, okay, your surname is Liu, (Liu descendant floated back from the Monan battlefield: Did I provoke you?) Eat people with soft mouths, take people with short hands, and hurry to talk.

"Dong Ning, you're old too." Liu Yanxia continued to chatter over there, as if she didn't see Xia Dongning's impatient expression, "I don't dislike you being trampled on by that person surnamed Han, and I married you willingly, don't you get mixed up in that Carmen clothing shop, your father-in-law's family has a huge industry, and you and your mother-in-law are still hungry?" ”

Chen Yansheng was shocked when he heard the news of the explosion. Over there, Xia Dongning was immediately alert, "Who?" ”

Chen Yansheng walked out.

At that time, the peach blossoms were blooming, and a gust of wind blew, and a few peach blossoms fell on her shoulders, swaying slightly, and floating down against her clothes.

The woman who came had a strange face, a long dress, an ordinary style, but the cut was of the highest quality, lining the waist that was not easy to grasp. Xia Danning can be recognized at a glance, this is the craft of the Carmen clothing workshop, embroidered with embroidery thread of the same color with intricate peony flowers of different shapes. This garment should be worn on the woman who is far away at the border. This woman has a pair of smart eyes, which makes Xia Dongning feel strangely familiar.

"Sister?" Xia Dongning exclaimed.

"Dong Ning," she brushed away the branches and leaves, and walked over with a smile, "I haven't seen you for many years," she deliberately strengthened her bite and looked at her meaningfully, "Don't come to harm?" ”

"I'm fine." Xia Dongning seemed to remember something, lowered his face, and said to Liu Yanxia, "You can go." ”

"You," Liu Yanxia's face turned blue and white for a while, "Don't think that you are a first-class lady, if your father hadn't paid me to come, I wouldn't want you to be a broken willow." ”

Xia Dongning's hands and feet were cold, and tears rolled down. "Get out." She pointed in the direction of the empty door and said coldly.

*******************************************************************************

"Why was I blind and fell in love with this kind of person in the first place?" Xia Dongning wiped his face with a handkerchief, still hateful.

"That's why I said you don't have a good eye for picking men." Chen Yansheng didn't want her to be sad, and laughed. Then Zhengse asked, "There is a huge Danxin Garden, why is there no one guarding the door?" ”

Xia Dongning's face was gloomy, and he said in a low voice, "It must be my father who transferred people away so that Liu Yanxia could come in." She was angry for a while, "It's such a father and daughter, how did you come to this point." ”

"Aunt" Chen Yansheng came into the house and saw Xia's mother lying on the bed, her face was sallow, her eye sockets were deeply sunken, and her body was indeed extremely weak. During her more than half a year in Chang'an, Mother Xia treated her very well, so she hurriedly stepped forward to check her pulse.

"The doctors in Chang'an City all said that it was tuberculosis (was there tuberculosis at that time?) I don't know, let's write it like this first. It's hopeless. Xia Dongning said in a low voice, his tone gloomy, and he didn't have much hope.

"Hehe, who said that." Chen Yansheng smiled, "Dong Ning won't forget who my master is, right?" ”

"Mr. Xiao," Xia Dongning's eyes lit up, she had always admired Xiao Fang very much, and vaguely knew that his medical skills could be channeled, "Is there a way for my sister to cure it?" ”

"I'll try." Although Chen Yansheng learned well and remembered some masterpieces of traditional Chinese medicine in later generations, he rarely practiced it, and he didn't dare to pack a ticket, and muttered, "You bring paper and pen." ”

"Okay." Xia Dongning turned around and took a pen and paper, Chen Yansheng lowered his head and thought about it, asked to be safer, and prescribed a gentle prescription.

"Speaking of this ink," my mother is hopeful of recovery, and Xia Dongning's mood is also improving, "I heard that Mr. Sang plans to open Xilan Pavilion, which specializes in selling paper and pencils, is about to open!" ”

"What?" Chen Yansheng raised his head, slightly surprised.
