The cold island is still snowing heavily.

Yuwen Changqing's family of four trekked on the mountain road, except for Nalan Yuanxiu, the other three wrapped themselves into zongzi.

"Dad, you're really useless, look at your mother, you don't need to wear a jacket." Hui'er is not taboo at all.

Yuwen Changqing gasped and said bitterly: "Speaking of which, you have to blame your mother." ”

"It's you who can't do it, what do you blame me?" Nalan Yuanxiu is still based on Tsing Yi, and he is not moved by the cold at all.

Yuwen Changqing ran up quickly, and said crookedly in her ear: "It's not your fault, you hollowed out my body." ”

Nalan Yuanxiu's cheeks turned red, and he smashed Yuwen Changqing on the chest with a hard fist, and scolded in a low voice: "Dead lame, if you dare to be serious in front of the child, I won't be able to tell you to go down in the future!" ”

Yuwen Changqing just laughed and asked, "By the way, where is my sister buried?" Don't be covered by heavy snow and can't find your bearings. ”

"It's almost there, it's at the top of the mountain."

When you go to the top of the mountain, you will see a wooden house, even if the snow is overwhelming, it still stands.

can build a wooden house on the top of the lonely mountain, except for Liu Jingchi, it is estimated that there will be no one else.

Nalan Yuanxiu pushed open the wooden house, although there was some dirt, but it was clean and tidy, there was a lonely grave in the center of the hall, and the stele was engraved with the six big characters of "Beloved Wife Nalan Yuanhui".

Yuanxiu took his two children to sweep the tomb, and Yuwen Changqing dug a pit next to the tomb and buried Liu Jingchi's clothes in it.

"Sister, you won't be alone from now on......"

A bonfire was lit in front of the tomb, and the four of them sat by the fire to keep warm, accompanying their deceased relatives.

Zhou'er and Hui'er leaned on their mother on the left and right, and for them, the people in the two tombs were very strange.

"Mother, you're crying." Hui'er wiped away Won-so's tears.

Nalan Yuanhui cried and laughed and wiped away her tears: "Yes, your aunt and your uncle-in-law have loved each other too bitterly in this life." ”

Hui'er said: "So when I grow up, I will never love any man, only my father and mother." ”

"Yes, that's right!" Yuwen Changqing clapped his hands in agreement: "In the future, you will stay by your father's side, and your father will support you for a lifetime." ”

Yuan Xiu glanced at her: "Where is there a girl who is too old to marry?" Now that the world is at peace, you can feel free and bold to love what you love. ”

Yuwen Changqing smiled: "This may be the difference between father and mother. ”

"Mother, can you tell us the story of your uncle and aunt?" Zhou'er said curiously.

"Of course."

……

……

In the year 613 of the Great Yan calendar, the second prince Li Yong usurped the throne in a coup d'état and purged the princelings and former ministers.

The Liu family has been a general for generations, stabilizing the country for Dayan, but the new master is high, and the Liu family has also been cut to varying degrees, Hanzhou took advantage of the unstable new policy to launch a surprise attack, the general Liu Bai died in battle, and the Yanxia War broke out completely.

Sixteen-year-old Liu Jingchi, dressed in silver Jiao battle armor, dressed in linen and filial piety, led his father who was shrouded in horse leather, and strolled on Chang'an Street amid the mourning of the whole country.

Dead father, it stands to reason that there should always be a little sad, but Liu Jingchi didn't even shed a tear, he followed his father from Rong at the age of eight, and went to the battlefield at the age of twelve.

Grandfathers, uncles, fathers, cousins, cousins, almost every few years, so many relatives die, die on the battlefield, some people are separated, some intestines are rotten, too many.

The Liu family has always had an ancestral motto: as a general, you must have the eagle eyes of the tiger and dragon, so that you will not be pierced and vulnerable by the enemy.

At night, in the Liufu full of white scarves, only Liu Jingchi was left to guard the spirit.

The Liu family has been loyal and good for generations, dedicating their lives to the Dayan Dynasty, where the battlefield is, where the home is, and in the end there is not even a decent mansion or a decent servant.

After fighting a lot, he is used to loneliness, Liu Jingchi has also tried to live like a rich son, but when he sees these night-to-night songs, flowers and willows are green, his heart is sick.

Where do the dignitaries know the cruelty of the battlefield, the dispute between Daxia and Dayan is destined to be full of white silk, and ten rooms and nine rooms are empty.

"Liu Shaolang, now that the Liu family has only one single seedling left for you, Your Majesty really can't bear to send you to the battlefield, so he specially sent me to pass on the edict, and named you the Marquis of Ding'an, and eat ten thousand households!"

"You go back and tell Your Majesty that his kindness will be kept first, his father's bones are not cold, and the world of Dayan is undecided, how can the men of the Liu family escape from the battle? I will return to Hanzhou, kill all the Northern Barbarians of Great Xia, and avenge my father and dead brothers! ”

The day after Liu Jingchi finished taking care of his father's funeral, he rode back to Hanzhou alone, took over the handsome seal at the age of sixteen, commanded the army of 800,000 Hanzhou, and overcame obstacles all the way, invincible, and in only four years, he pushed 32 cities in Hanzhou, advanced into the territory of more than 8,000 miles, and fought the Great Xia army without the power to fight back.

At the end of the fourth year, it snowed unprecedentedly heavily in Hanzhou, and the Great Xia Army resisted stubbornly with the help of the right time and place, and the two sides fought fiercely for nearly three months, the battlefield was like a meat grinder, and countless people died in battle, freezing to death, and the blood almost stained this ice and snow.

Both sides are in a deep state of exhaustion.

One night, Liu Jingchi was discussing with the generals how to break the situation, and suddenly, a sharp sound resounded through the barracks:

"His Majesty the Emperor has a decree!"

The old eunuch rushed into the military tent, with both hands in the holy decree, and said in a loud voice: "Fengtian carrier, the emperor's edict said, perennial war, national strength deficit, every summer envoy admonishes, willing to offer the princess of the Xia Dynasty to seek peace, with the gift of cattle and sheep 10,000 horses, countless brocade silks...... Immediately withdraw the troops for 3,000 miles, and achieve peace and common prosperity. ”

As soon as this edict was issued, all the generals were angry.

Liu Jingchi frowned, staring at the holy decree without saying a word.

The old eunuch put away the holy decree, helped Liu Jingchi and stuffed it into his hand, and sighed: "General Liu has been fighting outside the customs all the year round, and in recent years, there have been frequent droughts and floods in the country, bandits have gone out, and there is a great famine, and even His Majesty has shrunk his clothes and dieted, so he has to agree to make peace and alleviate the loss of the treasury." ”

Liu Jingchi just sighed lightly: "The minister accepts the order." ”

"Oh yes, in order to show the sincerity of the Yan Dynasty, General Liu must personally go to greet Concubine Xue and send her back to Chang'an, and the specific matters and dates will be discussed by the envoys of Great Xia to the military camp," the old eunuch said this, and smiled greasyly: "General Liu's military achievements are outstanding, and this return to the capital must be to add officials to the knighthood, and to worship the king!" ”

"My father-in-law has been tired all the way, please go down and rest first, and I will make my own arrangements in the future."

The old eunuch withdrew from the big tent in response, and the generals surrounded him, and vomited the unhappiness in his heart:

"What the hell, seeing that the snow is about to stop, it's a good time for the decisive battle, and suddenly sing this one, let's fight so hard to lay down the land, and it's just handed over to people in vain?"

"Your Majesty is too inconsiderate of the military, and he will give up the great opportunity for reunification for the sake of a woman!"

"So-called, the general will not be subject to the foreign monarch's order, General Liu, why don't we-"

"Enough!" Liu Jingchi stopped everyone, "The old eunuch hasn't gone far yet," he added: "Over the years of the war, the brothers have indeed been a little tired, and the grain and grass sent in recent days have also decreased in batches, which shows that the national strength is really a little overwhelmed, and it is not a bad thing to retreat from the battle to raise soldiers for two years." ”

"If you want me to say, it's all those civil servants who are useless, we are bleeding and crying outside, they are singing and dancing inside, how can the national strength not be in deficit?"

"Lao Li, I can't say that, in the past few years of the New Deal, the situation in the DPRK has been indeed turbulent, and I prefer to stay on the battlefield than the officialdom that is deceitful and silently bloodbled."

"Alas, let's withdraw from the army, just take advantage of this time to go home to see my wife and children, but General Liu ......" The generals looked at Liu Jingchi: "The old eunuch said that General Liu should personally go to meet Concubine Xue, in my opinion, this matter is a bit strange and risky." ”

A general responded: "Yes, these people in Hanzhou have always been treacherous, in case they use the excuse of peace and intimacy to instigate some surprise attack, wouldn't General Liu be dangerous?" ”

"Why don't I pick it up? General Liu is the backbone of our Hanzhou Army, and he can't take this risk. "There will be a proposal.

Liu Jingchi raised his hand and said: "It is a shame to send the princess of my country to another country as a concubine, and it should not be a fraud for Daxia to make this kind of decision, not to mention that this is the task of His Majesty's own order, and it is inappropriate to change anyone...... Everything, let's make a decision when the Great Xia envoy comes. ”

……

Three days later, the Great Xia envoy arrived as promised.

After some discussion, the two sides decided to make friends in a place called "Qingqiu" thousands of miles away.

Qingqiu is nearly a thousand miles away from the military camps of both sides, and if there is a movement of troops, it can be discovered in advance, and it can also be quickly responded to with the iron cavalry of Hanzhou.

Great Xia seemed to come with sincerity, and Liu Jingchi didn't doubt it much, selected three thousand elite infantry cavalry, and set out on the road to pick up his relatives the next day.

Two days later, when the team arrived in Qingqiu, Daxia had already set up buns, more than 10,000 cattle and sheep, more than a dozen carts of treasures, and more than 1,000 followers.

"I heard that General Liu is a young hero, and when I saw it today, he was really majestic and powerful." A red-eyed young man stepped forward and greeted him with a smile. Nalan Yuanshu.

Nalan Yuanshu invited again: "General Liu has been traveling all the way, and it just so happens that we have a place to shelter from the wind and snow, why don't you stay and rest for half a day before setting off?" ”

Liu Jingchi politely refused: "This is going to Chang'an, the journey is tens of thousands of miles, and the cattle and sheep are walking slowly, so there will be no delay, let's set off quickly." ”

Nalan Yuanshu didn't stay long, "Then the sister will be handed over to General Liu." General Liu must protect her well. ”

The princess drove the carriage and led the procession to send off the relatives, and soon assembled.

In order to ensure the truth, Liu Jingchi dismounted and said in front of the carriage: "The last general has offended Concubine Xue." Then he jumped into the carriage and pushed the door open—

Seeing a young woman of eighteen or nineteen years old, wearing a snow jacket, sitting in a carriage, no wonder the emperor would agree to this family business.

In the face of Liu Jingchi's rash intrusion, Nalan Yuanhui's heart tightened, and she frowned secretly, not daring to look at each other.

Liu Jingchi also retracted his gaze, gently closed the car door, jumped on the horse's back in one step, and waved his big hand: "Let's go!" ”
