Volume 14 Chapter 8 The Moon Was There at That Time (1)

Lingjun, Dongting Lake, Yueyang Tower. Seven or eight days even falling snow, the vast river waves, all covered by the wind and snow, and so on idle boats and boats are difficult to come and go, eight hundred miles of Dongting almost extinct traces, until the evening of November 14, the sky is completely clear, the sky is full of clouds swept away, to stay in the dead of night, it is to present a thousand miles of bright moon, the magnificent spectacle of floating light and gold, especially the Yueyang Tower of the rivers and lakes, even if it is a deep twilight, it is also exquisite and solemn, the weather is thousands, the long moonlight flows on the glazed tiles on the top of the Yueyang Building, it is like flowing gold, such a beautiful view, it is unimaginable, just a few months ago, there was a fierce fight here, although the victory or defeat of the parties has no impact on the general trend of the world, but the subsequent changes made the entire Jiangnan shake and uneasy.

These days, the Jiangdong naval army is ready to move, has suppressed Jiangxia, threatening to enter the country to hunt down the murderer of the prince of Yue, the king will naturally not let it succeed, and also concentrated the naval army under his command in Chibi, and issued a death order not to allow Jiangdong to cross the border. Since the two sides have been tense, the outside must first be inside, Baling County to govern Yueyang bear the brunt, first announced a curfew, after nightfall is not allowed to idle people and other casual walking, Yueyang Tower is no exception, so although the moon is like water, it is not a lack of people to watch.

The moon is in the middle of the sky, the night is deeper, the river and the sky are the same color, the dust is not clean, suddenly, the moon shadow shows a little black shadow in the depths, and the black shadow is getting bigger and bigger, look at it, only to know that it is a leaf of light boat from the water and the sky to sail from the water, the waves cross the water, fast as an arrow off the string, but a time to make incense, has arrived at the riverside, the person driving the boat is wearing green clothes, the face is delicate and indifferent. Under the moonlight, he looked like he was only seventeen or eighteen years old, he tied the boat to the dock, turned around and pushed open the hatch, revealing a warm smile like spring sunshine, and said softly: "Qingping, Yueyang Tower has arrived, don't you want to go up and have a look?"

There was silence in the cabin, and it was only after a cup of tea that a dreamy moan could be heard. After a while, a girl in a pale red shirt came out with a curtain, sleepy-eyed and sideburns. With red cheeks and the appearance of waking up from a big dream, she walked to the side of the boat in a daze and reached out to pluck a handful of icy water. Gently sprinkled on her cheeks, the chill invaded her skin, and she refreshed herself and regained consciousness. tilted his head to look at the young man in Tsing Yi, and said with a smile: "Zijing, I picked you up by this river at the beginning." ”

Yang Ning's eyes showed a misty color. muttered, "yes." My mind went blank. I just remember walking south, and I arrived downstairs in Yueyang in a daze. Somehow I felt that this place was very kind, so I insisted on refusing to leave, at the beginning, the guys in the building were willing to give me a few steamed buns to eat, and then they stopped caring about me, but I had already learned to catch fish and shrimp to eat, so I didn't starve to death. ”

Qingping smiled and said: "Yes, you not only can catch fish and shrimp, but also roast fragrantly, there are some children who smell the fragrance and drool, you will also give them one or two, my sister and I often perform in front of Yueyang Tower, I was very curious after hearing about it, and I went to the shore to take a look, only to feel that you are very similar to the little yellow I picked up by the river two years ago, they are all dirty, and very miserable, so I picked you up." ”

Yang Ning said with a straight face: "Yes, I am very similar to Xiao Huang, so you have to name me Xiao Ash, I said that my name is Zijing, and you still refuse to change your words, if it weren't for Sister Lu Qi to be the first to drink, I'm afraid I won't even be able to keep my name." ”

Qingping stuck out her tongue lightly, and quickly changed the topic: "Zijing, you have been a cook here for so long, you must be very familiar with this place, why don't you go cook and cook me a few delicious dishes, these days you are either eating dry food or eating game, and my mouth is faint." ”

Yang Ning has long been accustomed to Qingping's temper, so naturally he will not worry about her, but thinks of the two of them drifting in the rivers and lakes these days, and sure enough, there are not a few days of good sleep, and it is rare to have delicious food available, it is not as comfortable as being on Dongting Lake in the past, and he will make a few side dishes for Shuangjue every few days, so he can't help but feel ashamed in his heart, stretch out his hand to pull Qingping, and nodded solemnly: " Okay, I'll go to the kitchen, you go upstairs and wait for me, tomorrow morning when we leave, add some ingredients by the way, and I'll cook for you every day for the rest of the day, and I'll do whatever you like. ”

Qingping's eyes lit up when she heard this, she couldn't help but swallow a few saliva, looking at Yang Ning's gaze as if she was going to swallow him, although Yang Ning understood her intentions, she couldn't help but shrink her neck, her feet were light, and she rushed to the shore as if she was fleeing, Qingping couldn't help laughing out loud when she saw this, and the crisp laughter like a silver bell flew and swirled in the night, but she was not worried about alarming others, since Yang Ning had already gone ashore, within a few miles, no one would be able to stay awake, and farther away, the laughter would be weakened by the wind of the lake so that it was difficult to distinguish。 This night, Yueyang Tower only belonged to her and Yang Ning, thinking of this, Qing

The sound gradually stopped, and a gentle light shone from the depths of his eyes, this place, where they met for the first time, was also where Yang Ning regained his senses, from that moment on, there was an inseparable bond between the two, this life and this life, life and death.

Yang Ning rushed into the deep night twilight with his head stuffy, the fear in his eyes was gone, only endless gentleness remained, and he glimpsed more than a dozen patrol sergeants who stopped to listen to the sweet laughter coming from the wind, his figure swept past these people like a wisp of light smoke, those sergeants stiffened, and fell to the ground silently, and soon there was a slight snoring sound, and after a while, Yang Ning had already ordered all the people around him who could still breathe to sleep, except for the night watchman, In addition to the husband, there are also sleepy night guards in Yueyang Tower, and there is no one in Yueyang Tower, which also reduces many troubles for Yang Ning. Everything was arranged, and I was sure that no one would come to disturb Chenguang after this night, Yang Ning returned to Yueyang Tower, and did not go directly to the top floor to find Qingping, but walked to the kitchen in the back familiarly, only to see that the old place was as clean as new, and the remaining fire under the stove was still warm, in early winter, although there were not many fresh vegetables and vegetables, chicken, duck and fish meat were the same, Yang Ning secretly calculated in his heart, not only to let Qingping eat happily, but also to be lighter, after all, Qingping's body is too weak now, and many ingredients that are supplemented are not beneficial, after looking at it for a long time, he finally made up his mind and reached out to pick up the kitchen knife。

Qingping leaned in front of the window, her phoenix eyes were bent, revealing infinite joy, the cold night breeze was blowing on her hot cheeks, and it was not easy to lower the temperature a little, since she made a great gift in front of her parents' graves, she always felt that her pretty face was like a fire, strange to say, even when she was married to Yang Ning, she also felt that it was taken for granted, she was not as flustered as she is now, and only one sentence echoed in her mind - I am his wife, and there is no power to separate us!

Qingping deliberately branched Yang Ning, came down from Ji Mountain, and arrived at the riverside, the two rushed to Yueyang, along the way Yang Ning was not idle, she was half-asleep in the cabin, the two did not have much time to get along, it stands to reason that she could recuperate with peace of mind, but she had almost no real sleep, and always couldn't help but secretly look at Yang Ning's back through the gap in the hatch, as soon as she closed her eyes, the figure of that person was even more deep in her heart, and it never dissipated for a moment, and her mind was even more uncontrollably recalling the bits and pieces of the past, everything seemed to happen yesterday, very clear。

The first time we met, his appearance was simply worse than that of a beggar, and he was even more lifeless all over his body, if he hadn't been breathing, it was really doubtful that he would have lost his life for a long time, two years of getting along day by day, Qingping watched life return to the boy bit by bit, under his own care, gradually, he would not dress casually without knowing hot and cold, he would go to eat when the time came, and he would go to sleep when the sun set, no longer crazy and stupid, no longer in a daze by the lake all day and night, although he still couldn't remember the past, his speech was already clear and organized, even so, he couldn't get rid of the lonely and indifferent atmosphere that shrouded him with all his efforts, had to do everything possible to bully and tease him, until he was troubled and helpless, angry and frowned, only at this time, can we see a trace of age-appropriate temperament from this young man. Downstairs in Yueyang, his sister challenged Yan Zishuang, but was defeated and seriously injured, at the moment of life and death, the ignorant young man who was protected by himself under his wings was like a box sword unsheathed, showing an amazing spirit and light, until that moment, he suddenly realized that a wisp of love had already been wrapped around the two of them. But before I had the opportunity to pour out my heart, I was already fluttering, but in just a few months, it has been several partings, several degrees of life and death, and I have been lovesick, and I have been in love with each other. In front of the grave of his parents, when he plucked up the courage to let his lover decide the two ways of life and death, he was actually worried in his heart, hoping that he would agree, afraid that he would agree, and suffering from gains and losses.

It's just that why did his wish come true, but he was flustered, and he could no longer let go of his mind in front of him, these last few days, obviously wanted to really fulfill his wife's responsibilities, serve his newlywed husband well, and follow Liang Hong Mengguang's eyebrows, but he couldn't face the familiar figure calmly, how should this be good, just a momentary move, and forced Zijing to cook, where in this world is there a wife like himself, thinking of this, Qingping only felt that the cheeks that had just dropped the temperature were hot again, and Zhou's body was like a burning fire, Qingping groaned, and crawled on the table weakly, her heart was full of chagrin。
