XXXII. Send you on the expedition

The day of Bo Heng and Daddy's expedition was set for ten days later, and on the night after returning to the mansion, Bo Heng buried his head in my arms, telling me that he would miss me endlessly.

I touched his head, "I just hope that you and Daddy can come back safely, and I hope it won't be too long." ”

Bo Heng hummed sullenly, and then I told him about Liang Yunzhi's marriage. He asked me to add makeup to Liang Yunzhi as a princess, and to give Liang Yunzhi enough dignity, he wanted to go to the military camp for military training, so he couldn't accompany me.

I nodded and agreed with his arrangement, and then said that Daddy wanted us to go back to the General's Mansion tomorrow night for a meal, and Bo Heng said yes.

We went south this time, nearly a year younger. I looked at Daddy's gray hair at the family banquet, and I felt that my nose was slightly sour. Daddy was glad we were here and kept smiling from ear to ear.

The elder brother, who was busy in Tingwei on weekdays, also came back and was pushing the cup with Bo Heng to change the lamp. I smiled and stared at Bo Heng, his slightly drunk appearance was so good-looking.

The eldest lady looked at me, and then at Boheng. approached me and quipped: "Xiao Qi was reluctant to marry His Royal Highness the King of Lingyang, but now he looks like a little lover in love." ”

I lowered my head a little embarrassed, "The eldest lady laughed at Xiao Qi again, she was ignorant and reckless at that time, and she just wanted to do what she wanted." Your Highness treats me very well, and I am naturally not a stone. ”

The eldest lady was relieved to say that Xiao Qi had grown up and patted my hand.

At this time, Daddy raised his glass, and everyone also raised their glasses to look at Daddy.

"I am very happy that His Royal Highness and the princess can come back for dinner today. I will go on an expedition with His Highness in the near future, and this glass of wine, I wish my Highness and my Highness a smooth and safe expedition in advance. After that, Daddy raised his head and drank it all, and we also drank the wine in the cup with auspicious words.

A family banquet ended in a lively and lively manner, and my father looked at me reluctantly before returning home, "Now that I see the love between Xiao Qi and His Royal Highness, I am relieved to be a father." Xiao Qi, life is only a hundred years in the world, it is not easy to meet a beloved, so you must cherish it. ”

I nodded solemnly to Daddy, "My daughter knows." ”

Every day after that, Bo Heng and Daddy were like they were rooted in the barracks. Every time, I couldn't stay up and fell asleep, and Bo Heng came back. I could feel him covering me with the quilt, but when I woke up in the morning, it was gone.

I always felt empty in my heart, but fortunately, Yunzhi's wedding banquet was approaching, and I turned out many treasures from the treasury of the house, which was bound to make her the most beautiful bride that day.

Red silk was hung everywhere in the Wang family's mansion, and the joyful music spread throughout the street. I ordered someone to line up all the way to the inner house with the gifts, Yun Zhi and Wang Xian came out to greet them according to etiquette, and I took Yun Zhi, who was dressed in a wedding dress, and hurriedly said that there was no need to be polite.

Immediately, Yun Zhi took me to the table, and everyone looked at the flowing gifts I gave in the name of Lingyang Palace, Yun Zhi said too much, and the family couldn't pile it up.

I looked at Yun Zhi with a full head of pearls, I haven't seen her for a year, and she has a little more charm. Now that he is married, his eyes are full of shyness when he looks at the groom Wang Xian.

I couldn't help but want to tease her, "Oh, they all grew up as childhood sweethearts, why are you still shy when you see it?" ”

Yun Zhi grabbed the apple on the table and covered his part. "What's the matter, it's just that today is my wedding day, there are too many people, and I don't feel comfortable for a while."

I raised my glass and saluted her, "In the future, I will call you Mrs. Xiaocai, Mrs. Wang." ”

Yun Zhi was so annoyed that he poked me with his hand, and even said yes, yes.

Just after watching Yun Zhi worship heaven and earth, before he had time to eat the banquet noodles, Zhihong said that there was a person in the palace to summon Concubine Chen, so I had to leave with Yun Zhi apologetically.

Sitting in the carriage, I staggered and remembered that Wang Xian cared for Yun Zhi at the wedding banquet, and I also inquired from my father about Wang Xian's valuable character and unlimited future in the future.

Although Yun Zhi and I both married someone we didn't like at the beginning. But now they are both happy, which is also a happy result.

At present, Zhou Shuning is making trouble in Hongxuan Wangfu every day not to marry, and the old prince is such a precious daughter, and she can only rely on her.

Everything was as usual in Qionghua Pavilion, and Concubine Chen seemed to have been forgotten by the years, or she was reluctant to leave traces on her beautiful face. Concubine Chen affectionately took my hand and brought me my favorite pastries.

Everything is as beautiful as when I was not married, and Concubine Chen looked at me lovingly. "This palace heard that you were plotted by thieves when you were in Lingyang, and you almost lost your life, but fortunately, everything is in danger."

"Yes, princess, the mother fainted directly when she heard that you had an accident. When I woke up, I knelt in front of the Buddha day and night to pray to you, and I was sick. The palace maid said.

I grabbed Concubine Chen's hand anxiously and looked left and right vigorously.

Concubine Chen was disgusted and said comfortingly: "The palace is fine, don't worry." ”

I lowered my head a little choked, and I was on a rampage at that time, but I didn't think about how much worry it would bring to the people who were worried about me. "The mother concubine still has to take care of her body, and the son-in-law came back from Baiyue and Lingyang this time, bringing a lot of special products, and they were all sent to the warehouse."

The smile on Concubine Chen's face deepened a little, "Okay, you have a heart." ”

I quietly lay my head on Concubine Chen's knees, and Concubine Chen caressed my head lovingly. "This palace is blessed, and I haven't had a son and a half daughter for so many years. Fortunately, God had mercy on him and gave Bengong such a good daughter, and Bengong was very content. ”

I rubbed my face against Concubine Chen's dress again, and the warmth in my heart slowly passed.

"Oh yes, the mother concubine asked her son to enter the palace, is there something wrong?" I suddenly remembered that Concubine Chen said that there was something to let me enter the palace, and sat up.

"Indeed, there is something, Your Majesty said that this expedition is very important. Therefore, if you want to be more grand when you go out to the ceremony, restart Yanqi's Jun Dance, and send Bo Heng and General Sun to the expedition. Concubine Chen clapped her hands, and a group of people carried a huge drum and placed it in the courtyard.

"And His Majesty said that the most suitable candidate for dancing women is Xiao Qi. You are both Bo Heng's wife and General Sun's daughter. The pious send-off dance will surely move the gods and bless their safety. ”

Concubine Chen pulled me to the big drum, "Xiao Qi is willing?" ”

I stroked the drum surface with the pattern, "I want to, but I don't know how to dance this dance." ”

Yanyan sneered: "Niangniang, if you don't dance again, everyone will remember." Princess, I will teach you by the beautiful dancing skills of Concubine Chen. ”

I looked at Concubine Chen in surprise, and Concubine Chen nodded.

"It's not difficult to say that this is the dance of the king, the difficult part is to dance out of the devotion to God and the reluctance to go out to the soldiers, but also to have the magnificence of morale." Yanyan changed Concubine Chen's dancing shoes, and Concubine Chen turned around lightly and got on the drum.

The moonlight was silvery white, sprinkled on Concubine Chen's snow-like skin. The breeze gusted, and the belt of Concubine Chen's clothes floated, and for a while I didn't know whether I came to the fairyland and saw the fairy, or the fairy Sifan went down to the world.

I took a step back and looked at Concubine Chen.

"Xiao Qi, this dance will be taught to you in the next few days, there is not much time, you have to learn hard." Concubine Chen said, with her feet as a hit, knocking out the rhythm on the drum.

The waist is soft, graceful like a spring breeze blowing willows. Throw the long sleeves and practice the style. In the flow of eyes, there is full of parting sorrow, and there is also the determination to directly attack the enemy in the distance.

Steady down, then turn over and make a single step. Twist your legs and hit the drum with your feet. The whole person is like a whirlwind, and with the clothes and belts floating on his body, people can't take their eyes off. At the end of the dance, Concubine Chen stretched out her hand to face the sky, her face full of pathos. At this moment, she stood there alone, but she was as magnificent as an army.

I was so shocked that I didn't come back to my senses for a long time.

Concubine Chen was supported by the smoke and smoke, and I applauded violently. "Mother, you dance so well. This is the first time Erchen has seen you dance, and I am shocked. ”

Concubine Chen was a little embarrassed by what I said, "Just your sweet mouth, how much do you remember about that action?" ”

I was a little stunned and touched my cheek in embarrassment. Then he went over and hugged Concubine Chen's arm and coquettishly. "Mother, you danced so well, the retainers patronized you. There are still a few days, Erchen promises to study hard! ”

Then he stretched out three fingers to make an oath, and looked at Concubine Chen and made a grimace.

Concubine Chen was amused by me, and said that in the future, she would enter the palace every morning to study in Qionghua Pavilion, and she should not be lazy when time was pressing. I had dinner in the palace and then went back, so that I could learn to work overtime before the day of the expedition.

I said yes and began my nerve-wracking few days.

My legs were bruised from the dance practice, and I was so tired that I went home and fell asleep. It's a pity that our little husband and wife are under the same roof, one is busy practicing soldiers and the other is busy practicing dance, and they don't see each other seriously.

When I got up, I saw a few bottles of plasters on the table, and Zhihong said that His Highness heard that you were tired at night, and when he saw that his legs were bruised, he was so distressed that he ordered the imperial doctor to prepare it.

I held the medicine bottle and smiled at the thought of Bo Heng's warm eyebrows.

I entered the palace a little earlier today, so I walked slowly with Zhihong. A few people walked up to him, and when he looked at it, it turned out to be Mrs. Liang.

Looking at Mrs. Liang's face exactly the same as Yinyao, thinking of Yinyao's crazy appearance, I still couldn't help but be stunned.

Politely saluted Mrs. Liang, and after a few words of greeting, Mrs. Liang still asked about Baiyue.

"Silver Lady She... Alas, it's really confused. Abba and Aunt have spoiled her since she was a child, but fortunately, she stopped her losses in time and didn't make any bigger mistakes. Mrs. Liang said that iron does not make steel.

I nodded, not knowing what to get her back.

"I heard that it was the high priest who disappeared before who saved you, right?" Mrs. Liang's words changed sharply and asked Yu Yao.

"Yes, if it weren't for her to save her, maybe His Highness and I would be more than lucky." I answered truthfully.

Mrs. Liang sighed, "Then did she... Did I tell you anything? ”

I secretly screamed that it was not good, I avoided Zhaorong Palace for the past few days because I was afraid that she would interrogate me, and sure enough, I couldn't hide from the fifteenth day of junior high school.

"The man didn't say anything, he just said that he would enter the temple to pray for Baiyue in the future, and he would not go out for life unless necessary." I said it head-on.

Mrs. Liang let out a thoughtful sigh and said that she had to leave beforehand. I looked at the back of Mrs. Liang who was about to leave, and I couldn't help but ask.

"Mrs. Liang, was it you or Yinyao who was going to marry Your Majesty?"

Mrs. Liang stopped and turned to look at me. "At that time, it was only said that it was the daughter of the Yin family, and no one was specified."

I gritted my teeth, "Then you, are you Yinhuan?" ”

Mrs. Liang smiled meaningfully, I don't know if it was my delusion, and it overlapped with the crazy silver kiln that night. I looked at her face, and for a moment I felt that Yinmi, who had been burned by the fire, seemed to come back to life.

Mrs. Liang slowly put away her smile and left without words.

I looked at her back, and remembered Yu Yao's words, goosebumps crawled all over my body when the wind blew. I hurriedly pulled the red and said hurry up, I'm going to be late.

Soon it was time to go on the expedition, and Di Yuan personally saw him off. I stood on a high platform with a drum bigger than when I was practicing.

Looking condescendingly at the 300,000 troops under black pressure, he was still a little nervous. When the priest's sacrifice was finished, it was time for me to come to the stage.

I took a deep breath and held my breath as I began the dance. I beat the drum with all my feet, forgetting the pain. At this moment, the wind penetrated my soul, and it seemed that I had come to the border of Pilu thousands of miles away, and I could not help but burst into tears when I saw my people being brutally slaughtered.

The wind of the high platform violently blew my straps, spinning, walking, and spreading my sleeves. One step was not bad, and after the song was finished, with the sound of the horn blowing on the expedition, my tears also fell.

I looked at the two people on horseback who I was most concerned about, and this morning I put on my armor for Bo Heng, and embarrassedly stuffed him with the peace purse that I had taken the time to embroider.

My female celebrity has always been bad, I can only say reluctantly. Bo Heng picked up the purse with crooked stitches, pressed it on his heart, and said that he would come back safely.

I hugged him for a long time aggrievedly, greedily enjoying half a moment of pleasure.

Now that the army is marching mightily, I look at the sky and pray silently.

Celestials, please don't let the lovers separate.
