About a stick of incense, Duan Lianyi ate some wine and food, pushed open the door and looked to the side, it was quiet and unusual, and when he was about to close it again, Qiaorou came out, but he didn't see himself, so he took care of himself and left.

She couldn't hold back her curiosity, and went to the next box to push the door in, and when she came to Qin Xuan, she saw him sipping tea very usually.

Duan Lianyi was embarrassed in his heart, but he was also suspicious of Qin Xuan's reaction, obviously he was still shocked and excited when he met, so he was so heartfelt after such a while?

Qin Xuan saw her standing still, smiled and beckoned, motioning for her to sit beside her, "You should have seen the painting in the study?"

She then sat down and listened to his question, "I accidentally saw it this morning, the person on the painting is very similar to Qiaorou, I thought to myself that this painting was not painted out of thin air, it should be some reason, it just so happens that I haven't seen her for a long time, and I will look for her today, aren't you angry?"

Qin Xuan smelled a faint smell of wine on her body, and knew that she was drinking, and poured a cup of tea and put it in front of her, "I know you mean well, but the woman on the painting ......"

After a pause, he said, "Although she is like this delicate girl today, I know that she is not just by opening my mouth."

Duan Lianyi heard his words and knew that he had a very beloved woman, and today's time reminded him of his sad past, he couldn't ask for it, love parting, since ancient times, it was more painful than death.

He said, "I didn't do this properly, I knew that there was that portrait but I was still good at making claims."

"No, it's not your fault" Qin Xuan smiled, but he was melancholy, "No one in the world who looks so much like her is her, it seems that she will not appear, and it is just my imagination after all, it is really ridiculous"

She was a little puzzled, she wanted to ask but couldn't open her mouth, only said, "It's not early this day, let's go back"

"Okay" Qin Xuan got up, and the two of them walked out of the restaurant and took the carriage back to the house.

At night, Qin Xuan locked the door of the room, took two quilts and placed them on the ground next to the bed, while Duan Lianyi slept on the bed, and as soon as the candle flame was extinguished, it was pitch black.

She was still a little wary, but the person under the bed didn't move after she fell asleep, and after a while, she only heard the sound of gentle and steady breathing, and Duan Lianyi couldn't resist the sleepiness and fell asleep.

slept until the sky was slightly bright, and he heard an urgent knock on the door outside the house, which woke both of them up, Qin Xuan stood up and picked up the quilt and put it on the bed, Duan Lianyi also sat up, listening to this knock on the door so constantly, thinking that there was something important.

Qin Xuan opened the door quickly, and there was an attendant standing outside the door, and the attendant hurriedly said, "Just now, an eight-hundred-mile urgent edict came from the capital, ordering the captain and the general to go to Huaibei to fight against the incoming attack, 100,000 urgent, urgent!"

"You go and tell my father first, I'll be there later" Qin Xuan straightened his clothes, and the guard hurriedly responded.

Back in the inner room, Duan Lianyi had already gotten up and came to him, "What's wrong?"

"The army will set off immediately, go to Huaibei, I have to go", "Okay, the sword has no eyes on the battlefield, be very careful" She admonished, and remembered the current battle situation, it was really helpless.

"You have to be careful at home, since I married you, I must protect you, although Yangzhou City is not a battlefield, but it is a north-south shipping fortress, this city has already been surging undercurrents, open guns are easy to dodge, hidden arrows are difficult to prevent, you must also pay attention to some"

"I understand" Duan Lianyi listened to Qin Xuan's words, and felt grateful in his heart, thinking that although he was not a man and a woman, he could bear this responsibility, and he would stand up to the sky.

Qin Xuan then also went out, out of the city gate, the army of horses had been assembled, Qin Ye had already ridden a big horse, seeing him come on a horse, with a wave of his hand, the march went north.

This Jianghuai is a south and a north, the climate is very different, the north is like autumn, the dry and cold wind mixed with the yellow sand blows all over the sky, go to the ferry, the endless river water gushes in.

The brigade was ready to cross the river, but there was a news that General Wang did not come, and the army had ordered General Li to be the marshal and have full command, so General Li was born a bold person, Qin Xuan admired it most in his life, and got on the big boat, and happened to study the art of war at the bow of the ship.

"The last general, Qin Xuan, meets the marshal," Qin Xuan came to him and bowed respectfully.

"It turned out to be Captain Qin, please hurry up" The hearty person in front of him, who was nearly half a hundred a year, smiled and helped him up.

"It is said that heroes have been young since ancient times, and I have heard of your good name."

"The general praised falsely, this time in the north, if the battle is successful, you can recover the Huaibei area, then the Jin soldiers will inevitably be defeated and retreat, we are willing to follow the general to kill the enemy bravely" Qin Xuan's will was high.

"Okay, when we cross the river, go to the northeast, and kill him without leaving a piece of armor" General Li patted him on the shoulder with satisfaction when he saw such a man with lofty ideals.

The two of them didn't notice that a small soldier on the big ship looked unnatural, slipped into the cabin on the ground floor while no one was paying attention, and pushed open a compartment and entered.

Hundreds of miles away in Yangzhou City, Duan Lianyi was sitting on a swing in the garden, holding a scroll in his hand, looking at it boringly.

The coldness passed behind her, and when she saw her own young lady's lazy smile, she smiled and said, "Miss Liu is here, are you here or not?"

"Isn't she in Jingzhou, how could she come to Yangzhou?" Duan Lianyi was stunned.

"If you see it, you will know" Leng Yi beckoned to one place, she hurriedly stood up, and there was a woman wearing a moon-white cloak and a beautiful face standing at the door of the courtyard.

"Rui'er" Duan Lianyi took three steps and made two steps, and hurriedly came to her, thinking that the old playmate here had not been seen for two years, and he really missed it.

"Ripples, I went to the Duan family to find out that you were married, why didn't you even send me a letter?"

"Who knows where you've gone, and there's no place for me to live there, I just want to send someone to invite you, but I can't find a place," Duan Lianyi pulled her to the house to argue.

"You girl, your mouth is still so hard, but I also know that your heart is not a powerless talent, so you found a famous captain?" Liu Ruier still kept quipping.

"It's just the words of the matchmaker of your parents, you come back now, is it possible to come to see me" Leng Yi took the pastry and tea, and retreated.

"I'm here to pick up my nurse, she's old, and I'm not at ease at home, besides......" Rui'er smiled shyly, "My daughter is married, how can there be any reason not to invite my mother to go."

Duan Lianyi suddenly realized, and said with a smile, "Which family's son is it, with this blessing?"

"You've also seen that I was almost taken captive that year, and he was the one who saved me," Liu Ruier took a sip of tea.

She understood it, and thought that it was him, so she nodded and said, "It's indeed a match made in heaven, after the little general is loyal, he also has affection for you, you and him, I don't worry"

"Then how does this Qin Gongzi treat you?"

Duan Lianyi smiled slightly, "We respect each other like guests."

"But that Yun Gongzi, in the past three years, Yun Gongzi has never come back, he had an alliance with you at the beginning, why do you leave you here now?"

Liu Ruier didn't want to say more, but she was inevitably resentful in her heart.
