Chapter 119: Old Childhood Events
was suddenly hugged like this, her fingers holding the brush shook lightly, and the word "rain" written on the pen just flew out.
Xia Qian turned his head sharply and looked at the person behind him speechless.
"You, why are you here?"
"Such a precious lantern made such a simple wish? But for your sake, in order to fulfill your wish, Heaven sent me here! ”
She glanced at him with a smile and muttered, "I haven't even finished writing this name, how can God know what I have promised?" ”
Huo Zun lifted her right hand holding the pen and finished writing her name with him.
"It doesn't matter if God doesn't know, just know it!"
After the most expensive Kong Ming lantern flew into the sky, everyone's eyes went away with the firelight in the air, and Que Ming looked at the affectionate appearance of the two people, and silently retreated into the crowd.
Huo Zun stood at the gate of the city for a day, and continued to be on duty in the middle of the night after being taken care of by Kuo Tianchen, and it was his rest time before the time, seeing that Yu Nuan brought so much wine out in the afternoon, he hurried over because he was worried that Xia Qian would get drunk outside.
"Yes, more than 20 jars of wine, you haven't touched a drop, you are obedient enough!" He snorted at her and smiled.
She padded her heels and smiled at her sweeter and more weird: "Those twenty jars of wine, all you hid under the bed!" ”
He glanced at her with a stunned look on his face, hooked the corners of his lips and picked her up in the air, and spun around a few times on his shoulder, causing her to scream.
The crowd in the night sky with their eyes still wandering all looked at it at once, and they praised the young people for their energy and crazy excitement.
Huo Zun laughed and carried her along the ice all the way to the east.
Que Ming stood in the crowd, looking at the departing backs of the two from afar, as if his heart had been hollowed out.
"Hurry up and let me down, my eyes are spinning, and my head is dizzy!"
He slowed down and put his hand on her back: "I will only be free to play with you tonight until the end of this month." Don't move, I'll take you to a good place. ”
All the way to the east, the farther and farther away from the south gate, the crowd gradually thinned out.
His pace was steady and brisk, Xia Qian lay on his back and his heart was warm, thinking that the next time he would be with Huo Zun and have to wait until the end of the month, he felt that time was precious.
"Huo Zun, when the peach blossoms bloom in March, I will personally brew ten vats of peach blossom wine. In May, when the mulberry seeds are ripe, I make ten more jars of mulberry wine. In July and August, when plums, plums, and grapes were ripe, I was brewing thirty jars of fruit wine. Guarantee that you will have wine to drink every day in the future, and taste fresh every year! ”
He glanced back at her and smiled seductively: "There is so much brewing, you can't finish drinking." However, we can add it to the bath and you will be fresher by then! ”
Her face flushed with anger, and she pulled at his ears angrily.
He smiled and slid a few steps on the ice, and the two quickly rushed more than a few dozen meters away, throwing the sparse tourists behind them.
Xia Qian panicked and hugged his neck tightly.
"I've calculated that I probably won't be able to make enough wine. When the time comes, leave half for my father and mother and our West Courtyard, send some to Lord Jun, and send some to Lin Qianxue and the girls on the fifth floor. Send some more to Que Ming, and if that Tuoba Jin really apologizes to us publicly tomorrow, send him some too! ”
Huo Zun turned his head in surprise and asked in surprise, "Tuoba Jin, have you seen him?" ”
"What's more, I won him many times today, and he said that he would apologize publicly at the gate of Nancheng!"
He asked in disbelief, Xia Qian told Huo Zun what happened today, of course, she didn't dare to mention anything about changing her shoes in front of everyone.
"Yes, I met so many people in one afternoon, and even gave our wine? However, for the sake of the prince of Mobei being angry with you half to death, these drinking rights should be sponsored by me! ”
Xia Qian twisted her eyebrows and reminded seriously: "Those osmanthus wines are mine, I brewed them!" ”
"You're all mine, let alone wine! Tell me, how did you win Tuobajin? ”
She told Huo Zun carefully about the process of playing cards, and heard that Tuoba Jin Mahjong lost seventeen times, and lost sixteen games in addition, subtraction, multiplication and division twenty games, Huo Zun couldn't stand up with a smile.
However, hearing that he was finally willing to gamble and admit defeat, claiming that he would post an apology letter at the gate of Nancheng tomorrow, Huo Zun still praised Tuoba Jin.
As for Que Ming, Xia Qian's impression is too shallow, except for his excellent flute blowing and free and easy temperament, he actually doesn't have much impression, and naturally he can't describe anything.
"If you're not familiar with it, you're going to give it to someone?" Huo Zun's gentle words carried a faint dissatisfaction.
"Of course not, I sprained my foot while skating here with Lord Jun that day, and it was Que Ming who found a carriage to take us back. Seeing that he likes to drink the osmanthus wine I brewed, I thought about giving him some. ”
Huo Zun nodded and chuckled: "You are the young lady of the General's Mansion, and you are in charge of the affairs of the West Courtyard." But when it comes to alcohol, you have to leave half of it for me first! ”
Xia Qian smiled and patted him on the shoulder, "That's for sure, your wife is now a winemaker, how can she give her husband no wine to drink?" ”
Huo Zun carried her all the way east, and finally stopped in front of a ferry.
The ferry port is large, with a vermilion pavilion at the back, which looks very spectacular, and the corridor connecting the ferry to the river bank is wide and deep. Adorned with colorful lanterns, it looks even more majestic.
After entering the port, Xia Qian found that a lot of wood on the deck and corridor of the ferry had fallen off and shifted, and a few railings of the pavilion were missing, and it looked like it had been abandoned for a long time.
He carried her on his back to the ferry, and walked along the pavilion and promenade to the riverbank.
There are obviously several times more trees in this area than in the surrounding area, and it is even more dazzling when decorated with pear blossoms and lanterns.
"If these are really pear trees, if this ferry is still open, with flowers and snow in spring, green trees in summer, and fragrant pears in autumn, it must be a good ferry!" Xia Qian sighed.
"These are indeed pear trees. The bridge over the Xuyu River was built seven years ago, and the South Gate was also completed at that time. This ferry port is for the south of Binh Dinh and is dedicated to the army, and it has been for some years. ”
Pacify the south?
Xia Qian was stunned. Situ Jun once said that more than ten years ago, there was a continuous war between Yiguo and Nankang, and it was not until seven years ago that it was calmed down.
More than 10 years ago, Kang was prosperous and had many generals.
The country of Yi was plagued by natural disasters, plagues broke out everywhere, and the country of Yi was attacked from both sides, and the country of Yi was attacked by the enemy on the back of the belly, and the situation of the five countries was almost changed at that time.
Generalissimo Jue Lian sent troops many times, but due to the lack of food and grass and the spread of plague in the army, he had to return to the court.
His forward general, Huo Feng, sought the antidote to the plague from the divine doctor Xiao Yuzi on Wuji Mountain, and inquired about several secret passages on the battlefield of Nankang.
The army that got the elixir and the secret passage was like a tiger, and it was openly maneuvering with the Nankang army, secretly connecting the secret passage to rob the enemy's grain and grass, and finally calmed down the Nankang war seven years ago.
Huo Feng was promoted to deputy marshal by Jue Lian for his outstanding merits, and after his death, he was directly substituted as the general of Zhenguo.
Huo Zun sat down on a piece of bluestone, looked at the river thoughtfully, and recalled: "When I was a child, I often came here to play, grilling fish, climbing trees, picking pears, looking at the river for a day, and I didn't know how to go home when it was dark!" ”
More than a decade ago, he was a milky hairy child, and he was not yet thirteen years old at the end of the war.
Thinking that he often followed his mother here when he was a child, waiting for his father's triumphant return, Xia Qian inevitably felt some sympathy in his heart.
"At that time, my mother took you to sit here, and I would definitely tell you a lot of my father's heroic deeds."
"My maternal grandparents were not in good health, and my mother lived at my uncle's house when she was young, so that when she came back, I didn't know anyone when she was 15 years old."
Xia Qian was choked, no wonder he had a cold temperament, it turned out that he lacked maternal love!
"Then you didn't have any friends when you were a child, and you all played here by yourself?"
"Of course not, I have three friends, one who is seven years older than me, who took me and taught me martial arts. I am five years younger, I rarely speak, and I cling to me every day like a fart. I thought we could be together forever, but unfortunately ......"
She listened to the first half of the sentence, her eyebrows twisted for a long time, and she bit her thin lip and said to herself: "There is such a difference in age, and the three people have a generation gap one after another, can they play together?" ”
As soon as the words came out, she regretted it, because Huo Zun's thoughts were not only interrupted by her understatement, but also her mood became bad.
