Chapter Seventy-Five: Secretly Meeting
The beautiful hibiscus face was reflected in the bronze mirror, and Yu Yuning also came to the mirror and praised sincerely: "Sister Zhao is so beautiful!" ”
The girl in the mirror has a beautiful face, although it is not extremely beautiful, how can I see it at a glance, I don't feel amazing, but after looking at it for a long time, it will make people feel very charming, her eyebrows and eyes are heroic, but her face is pure.
It's the type that makes people feel more and more beautiful the more they look at it.
"In the future, if anyone marries Sister Zhao, it will be a great blessing."
Yu Yuning dressed up for Zhao Zhuo, Zhao Zhuo gave Yu Yuning a dagger for self-defense, they chatted very closely, until the fourth watch later, Zhao Zhuo left the camp tent, returned to his camp, still reluctant to take off this women's clothes, until the next day she went to training, then put on armor.
…
Emperor Jing'an fled to Shu for refuge in a mighty way, and the heroes of the world rose together, and the Jiedu envoy with heavy troops and the prince in the fiefdom were also ready to move, and they all wanted to compete for the world with the rebellious King of Jin.
When all forces were fighting for the imperial city and high positions, Lin Xu took the opportunity to issue an edict ordering the princes to crusade against the king of Jin, the purpose of which was to attract the princes from all over the country to compete with the king of Jin, so that he could sit and reap the benefits of the fisherman.
The king of Jin has been in Youzhou for more than a month, and many princes have sent troops to attack, in the name of exterminating the rebels, they also want to capture Youzhou, capture Chang'an City, and sit in the coveted high position.
After the king of Jin planned to capture Youzhou, he set off for Chang'an City, and when he was officially proclaimed emperor, he sat on the dragon chair and recruited more people to come and defect.
He didn't expect the heavy snow in Youzhou, and this year was much colder than usual. It was difficult to march in the snow, the soldiers in the battalion lacked winter clothes, and even many soldiers in the battalion had frozen to death, so the king of Jin could only plan to wait until the New Year passed, and when the weather warmed up, he led his soldiers to set off to Chang'an City.
Fortunately, it is now approaching the end of the year, and there is finally no need to fight.
It is as if the forces of all sides have agreed on a truce, and they will talk about it after a stable year.
There was no festive atmosphere for the New Year in the barracks, and many soldiers had died in the battles for days, and they were all busy treating the wounded and caring for their families, hoping that after the New Year's Festival, a new peaceful dynasty would be ushered in.
As soon as the weather was cold, Yu Yuning called herself sick and stayed in her camp all day long.
At night, she slipped out quietly, and Lin Qinghan's legs recovered a lot, although she could still see that she was a little lame when she looked closely, but fortunately, it did not affect her walking.
And he promised Yu Yuning to take her out to watch the lantern festival and feel the atmosphere of the New Year on the streets of Youzhou.
In the troubled times, the people who suffer are innocent people, but the lively tradition passed down by the ancestors can not be abandoned, although this year is not peaceful, but there are still many people who come out to see the lantern festival, put lanterns on the shore of Changning Lake to pray for blessings.
Pray that the war will end as soon as possible, pray that there will be no more gunpowder smoke in Youzhou in the coming year, pray that the world can be unified, the four seas will be peaceful, and the river will be clear and the sea feast.
It is much more convenient to travel by pretending to be a man, and finding a way to avoid Zhao Yin's eyes and ears, Yu Yuning finally came out with Lin Qinghan, and he could also see the lantern festival he had promised for a long time.
There are not many peaceful days like this, and if there is a war, there will be fewer and fewer days like this.
Yu Yuning also cherished the opportunity to come out this time.
"Is my cousin's injury better?" She hadn't gone out alone with Lin Qinghan for a long time, and in the carriage she was sitting in with him, Yu Yuning felt cramped and uneasy, although every day in the barracks, they would meet, but they didn't even make eye contact.
But as soon as the night came, Lin Qinghan suddenly appeared in her tent, he often appeared late at night, left before dawn, and appeared without warning, and today, Yu Yuning also hid from Zhao Yin and sneaked out, they were so sneaky, hiding, like cheating.
Lin Qinghan took a sip of tea and said softly: "Thanks to Ning'er for changing the dressing and bandaging for me every day, my injuries have healed a lot." ”
Lin Qinghan leaned on her bed every time she came back, and the excuse she made was that her leg was inconvenient and she couldn't move.
Or, an old injury recurs, and it hurts when you move.
Yu Yuning was worried about his injury, so she could only let him stay.
After a few days, Yu Yuning found that in addition to his uncertain temperament and moodiness, he also found that his skin was getting thicker and thicker.
The carriage finally came to the street of Youzhou City, and when Yu Yuning was in Furong City, he saw the dilapidated and depressed scenes of the baptism of war, as well as the tragic situation of the people in the troubled times, and Youzhou City at this time was much better than then.
The red lanterns are hung high, the crowd in front of the restaurant and tea shop is endless, the cars and horses are like dragons, and the lanterns are like day, which is really lively.
The freshly cooked pastries and fruits along the street are steaming and fragrant, making people very appetizing when they smell it.
Today's heavy snow has gradually stopped, the sky from time to time drifting a few white snowflakes, the winter in Youzhou City is very painful, the north wind mixed with ice particles drilled straight into people's necks, blowing on people's faces like a knife cut pain.
And the lively atmosphere of the New Year allowed Yu Yuning to forget her troubles for a while, she opened the car curtains, and when she saw this lively scene, she was very yearning.
When she and her mother were at Yu's house in Jiangling, they couldn't even eat at the table during the New Year, when Yu was in a good mood, they would reward their mother and daughter with some leftovers to eat, and when they were in a bad mood, they would find a reason for her to beat and scold her at every turn, punish her for kneeling and beating the board, and torture their mother and daughter in different ways.
Yu Yuning still remembers that it was such a cold day, because her mother served Yu's bath, the water was hotter, and Yu asked her and her mother to be dragged out and let her and her mother kneel in the snow.
She was thinly dressed, and the north wind was howling in the yard, and the sky was full of snow, and as soon as she inhaled, the north wind mixed with snow particles inhaled into her nose, and it froze painfully.
There was a biting cold from both knees, and the cold made people feel like their bones were about to break.
She and A-Niang hugged each other tightly, wanting to give each other some warmth, hoping that their body temperature could warm each other and survive two hours in this freezing weather.
In the end, she and A-Niang were so cold that they lost consciousness, and when they were sent back to the room, they were already frozen and stiff, their bodies were shaking, and they had a high fever in the middle of the night, and almost lost half their lives.
Thinking of these painful pasts, Yu Yuning still felt that she was not tortured to death by the Yu family at that time, and she could only be counted as her fate.
And what a terrible thing it is to meet someone unladylike and marry the wrong person.
She might as well have such a father.
A-Niang was not that kind of character in the past, she was bullied by the Yu family all the year round, but her father ignored them and favored and connived at the Yu family, so that the Yu family did not treat their mother and daughter as human beings, and A-Niang lived in pain and depression all the year round, and complained about her husband every day, so that she became so unstable and complained at every turn.
Her mother desperately wanted her to marry into a high gate and get rid of the fate of being at the mercy of others, so Yu Yuning wanted to do her best to climb up.
Only by getting rid of this fate and getting ahead can you avoid being bullied and don't even have the strength to fight back.
Yu Yuning lifted the curtain and walked out of the carriage, a cold wind rushed in her face, she gathered the cloak on her body, brushed away the tears that were blown sour by the wind, she has been dependent on A-Niang for all these years, A-Niang is her only relative in this life, but at the end of this year, she and A-Niang can not reunite, separated by two places, thinking of A-Niang, her heart is sour, full of tears.
Before she got out of the carriage, she was picked up by Lin Qinghan, and he carried her out of the carriage.
Yu Yuning sniffed, suppressed the sour emotions in her heart, and said in shock: "What is this doing, cousin?" ”
Lin Qinghan's words were indifferent, and he only replied, "The road is slippery on a snowy day." ”
The road is slippery in the snow, does he want to carry her out of the carriage?
