Chapter 5 second quarter

Di Qing pushed open the door of the east wing. "Mother!" His voice was trembling.The white-haired Mrs. Di was chatting with Princess Weiyang, when she saw her son, she stood up in surprise and said tremblingly, "Qing'er!" Di Qing's heart ached, she fell on her knees, walked up to her mother, and kowtowed: "My child is not filial. You have been away from home for three years, and you have made your old man suffer!" Mrs. Di embraced her son in her arms and rubbed him Holding his son's hair, tears flashed in his dazed eyes, and he choked up and said, "Good boy, you are honoring the Di family by going to war outside the Great Wall for the country! How could mother be unhappy? Thanks to your untrained Daughter-in-law—by the way, Qing'er, come and meet Wu'er!"

At this time, a young girl who came up with tea blushed and hurriedly turned around to leave.Princess Weiyang grabbed her with one hand, and smiled: "Miss Liu, you have worked so hard for three years, and you have traveled a long way to come here, why did you become shy when you first met?" Mrs. Di took Wu'er with one hand and her son with the other, with a smile on her old face: "It's never been easy, it's the first time you two have met today!" She took Di Qing's hand and put it on Wu'er's hand. Di Qing's heart sank suddenly, the inexplicable bitterness made him almost desperate!

Mrs. Di looked at her son and daughter-in-law with a smile for a while, then suddenly came back to her senses, and hurriedly said: "Look, I'm so confused! Qing'er, it was Miss Princess who brought us here, thank you soon People." Di Qing turned around and bowed slowly: "Thank you, General, Princess Weiyang." Princess Weiyang smiled reservedly, and replied: "General Di, you are being polite, what is the merit of this concubine?" They were humble to each other, but their eyes never met.The silence at this moment seems to have passed for thousands of years...

Mrs. Di didn't realize it at all, and smiled again: "Qing'er, our family has finally reunited again. You are not too young. Mother wants to arrange your marriage with Wu'er as soon as possible. Mother is always lonely, really I want to hug a grandson soon." Wu'er blushed, and secretly glanced at her fiancé-in-law, joy and satisfaction flooded her face.Young and handsome, brave and heroic, all of these have made her from a farming family happy - the hardships of the past few years are finally not in vain. She is indeed not very beautiful, but she is as simple and natural as a mountain.

Di Qing's hand gradually clenched the sword until his knuckles turned white.But he still respectfully whispered: "Everything is according to mother's orders." Old Madam Di smiled and said, "I knew you listened to Mother the most..." At this moment, a faint smile appeared on Princess Weiyang's pale face, and she interjected: "Madam, anyway, I'm going to leave the court soon, why don't the two marriages go together!" Old Mrs. Di was taken aback, and waved her hands again and again: "How can you afford it! You are a princess marrying a general, a grand marriage bestowed by the Lord Long Live. How can we country people be equal?"

Princess Weiyang said softly: "It doesn't matter, it's more convenient, anyway, everything is ready-made. Old lady, just give Weiyang some face." Her voice was irresistibly soft.Old Mrs. Di's kindness was hard to refrain from, so she could only smile and said: "The princess is so polite. Qing'er, Wu'er, why don't you thank the princess?" Di Qing and Wu'er bowed together: "Thank you, princess." Princess Weiyang smiled, and returned the salute, her face already terribly pale.When Di Qing saw her snow-like face, pain flashed in his eyes again.However, Mrs. Di asked in surprise: "Princess, your complexion is so bad! Your body is important, please ask the doctor to come and take a look." Princess Weiyang smiled with difficulty, waved her hand and said: "It's nothing, it's just snowing outside, and the body on your body It's just a little cold. I'll go back and put on some clothes." She got up while talking.

Mrs. Di hurriedly said: "Qing'er, send the princess off quickly!" The snow outside the door was falling one after another, and the two walked in silence, stepping on the snow, without saying a word or looking at each other.Arriving at Yingkou, Princess Weiyang stopped, raised her head slightly to look at the snow falling in mid-air, and said quietly: "It's the end, you should go back." There was a sad smile on her pale face: "Di General, congratulations." Di Qing also said slowly: "Congratulations to you too." Snowflakes fell lightly on her bright red Zhaojun jacket, like red plums in the snow.The eyes of the two met, and a sadness that was heavier than the mountains and deeper than the sea suddenly appeared in their eyes.The road has come to an end.

Di Qing suddenly felt that he had become the overlord of Western Chu a thousand years ago, and watched Yu Ji commit suicide in despair! Yu Xi Yu Xi Nai Ruo? In the past few days, the entire battalion has been busy arranging the marriage of the chief and deputy commanders.Marriage on the battlefield, and the next couple are two new couples. It cannot but be said to be a good story.But who knows how much unknown bitterness and sourness lies behind this "good story"? Under the eaves of the White Stone House, wind chimes rang softly in the wind. "Have you been here since I left?" Princess Weiyang gently asked a young general in uniform beside her.

Ding Ning nodded, feeling a little embarrassed for some reason. "It seems that we are really inseparable. No matter what happens, we will still get married." Princess Weiyang smiled wryly.Her eyes were as pale as white clouds: "I don't ask you to treat me in the future, I just hope that you and I can get along in harmony, and save some face for the general's mansion and the county king's mansion." Ding Ning held the long sword in his hand, looked far to the north, and said slowly: "I... Ever since Bingmei committed suicide, I have never thought about getting married... But the emperor's order cannot be violated. In order to escape, I had to ask to be stationed at the border. "He lowered his head and smiled at Princess Weiyang who was sitting under the wind chimes, but there was indescribable grief in his smile: "To tell the truth, on the day I was ordered to go to war, I made a decision - to die in battle, never to die again." Don't go back to court to get married!"

Princess Weiyang smiled wryly: "But you didn't expect to meet me as soon as you entered Jiuquan County?" "It's really a sky net, and you can't escape anywhere." Ding Ning smiled. The two looked at each other and smiled, but there were different thoughts in their smiles.People are by your side, each with a different heart. "Okay," Princess Weiyang stood up and took Ding Ning's hand, "Let's get married! Let everyone be satisfied, and parents rest assured—after all, we can't fight against the entire family and dynasty." ※※※

The wind is strong and the horns are bowing, and the general hunts Weicheng. At the southern foot of Daqing Mountain, military flags are flying and horns are flying.Ding Ning and Di Qing galloped together, and accompanied the angels to go hunting. Di Qing bent down and shot an arrow towards the sky.At the sound of the strings, a wild goose landed in response to the sound, with arrows piercing its eyes. "Deputy Commander Di is very skilled!" Angel's fat body couldn't sit still on the horse, and he almost fell off the horse several times.He took a breath, and said with a smile: "I don't want you two to be young, but each has the courage to be undeserved! Yitian and Pijiang bestowed these two young heroes, and the long live frontier will be worry-free from now on!" He laughed loudly: " It's a pity that General Di already has a wife, otherwise the lower officials would definitely ask the emperor to match a beautiful woman to the general—a heroic beauty, a good story through the ages, haha!" Ding Ning and Di Qing looked at each other and galloped forward, neither of them said a word. At this time, there was only a sharp sound of "swish", and an arrow flew past the two of them.Immediately there was a fierce roar in the forest, and a clouded leopard jumped out of the forest with injuries, ran wildly on the hunting ground, and bit anyone it saw. The angel was so frightened that he almost fell off his horse.Ding Ning and Di Qing hurriedly protected him from left to right. At this time, there were two urgent sounds of "swish", and two arrows with carved feathers shot out vigorously, and shot into the leopard's eyes impartially.The arrow was so powerful that it pierced through the eyes to the back of the head, killing the clouded leopard on the spot! "Good arrow skills!" Ding Ning and Di Qing couldn't help but blurt out their praises at the same time! I saw that the person who slowly put down the bow and arrow tens of feet away was a young woman in a yellow shirt and a silver headgear!She has black hair and is as beautiful as a saint on a distant mountain. Judging from her attire, she should be a noble lady of a foreign race. "Pipa, the second daughter of King Gaochang, pay homage to the Angel of Song Dynasty, the two generals." She got off her horse and knelt on one knee on the ground, and said, "Long live the emperor of Song Dynasty, and the friendship between the two countries forever!" Ding Ning glanced at the angel, and saw He was still trembling and couldn't say a word, he didn't think so, so he got off the horse and helped her up, and said calmly: "Princess, don't be too polite." Princess Pipa got up, her dark blue eyes swept across his face lightly, and said, "Thank you, General." Ding Ning got on his horse and walked side by side with her. "General Ding is so young, he has already passed the border of Weizhen. The little girl really admires it!" Princess Pipa smiled as she pressed her bridle slowly, "I heard that the general is getting married soon. I don't know which family's daughter is lucky enough to get such husband-in-law?" The angel finally settled down, and added a sentence: "Oh, General Ding's future wife is a famous and peerless beauty in the royal family! The marriage was arranged by the emperor himself." Princess Pipa gave a soft "Oh", her eyes were a little bit Strange: "That is really worthy of General Ding." The angel saw that the one who killed the clouded leopard was actually a young girl, and he couldn't help being very surprised: "It is said that Hu'er makes a living immediately, and Hu'er has been able to shoot and hunt on horseback since he was a child. I just saw it with my own eyes today." Princess Pipa smiled sweetly: "My lord, I'm overwhelmed. The father heard that the angel of the Song Dynasty came to the frontier recently, and specially ordered the little girl to come to greet him. She also brought a gift to celebrate the wedding of the two generals." The beautiful eyes looked at Ding Ning with a smile, "General Ding, I really want to see the beautiful bride!" Ding Ning was a little embarrassed by her look, turned his head and exchanged glances with Di Qing, and said to her: "Then, princess, please do me a favor and attend tonight's big wedding!" Princess Pipa smiled and said: "Of course!" The barracks had been decorated with lanterns and festoons, and festive atmosphere spread inside and outside. Sergeants slaughtering cattle and goats and cooking food could be seen everywhere. Yin Cui came to the camp with Miss this time, looking at the huge place, she couldn't help but be speechless: "God, there is such a big place in the world, with so many people, it's really hard for that uncle of the Ding family to manage it! Princess Weiyang didn't speak, but looked at the sky empty.In the blue sky, a pair of big eagles spread their wings and flitted across the sky. They both matched their wings and fought the sky. "How free!" she sighed inwardly.She also wanted to fly freely like this, but in the end she couldn't escape—because there was no sky for her outside!She looked back and looked at Wu'er who was starching and washing the old lady's clothes in the courtyard.She rolled up her sleeves, worked swiftly with her hands and feet, and always had a sweet smile on her simple and natural face. She didn't ask for much, but she got it all. Princess Weiyang looked up at the sky, and suddenly heard the sound of strings, and an arrow with carved feathers shot through the sky.One of the eagles let out a long scream and fell down!Her hand shook, and the teacup shattered!She walked out quickly, only to hear the mournful cry in the air, another big eagle was circling in the air and could not bear to leave.Princess Weiyang's face was pale, and the pain in her heart was inexplicable! "The princess is really good at archery, she is worthy of being a descendant of the desert." The angel was full of praise. The sergeant under his command picked up the dead eagle, and Princess Pipa took the big one, and offered it to the angel with both hands: "According to the customs of the country, dedicating prey to nobles is the best way to show loyalty-my lord, please do me a favor." The angel laughed, and was about to reach out to pick it up, when he heard a strong wind blowing over his head, he was stunned for a moment, and a huge black shadow came over his head, passing by.Everyone was shocked, only to see the big eagle rushing down from the sky, grabbing his lover's body and flying away! The angel's hat was knocked off the ground, and he was in a panic for a while.Princess Pipa frowned, with a hint of anger on her face, she shouted: "The beast is rude!" She took out an arrow from the saddle and put it on the bow, and pointed it at the eagle.The bow is like a full moon. At this moment, a crisp sound was heard, and the bow in her hand suddenly snapped.Princess Pipa was surprised—this bow has been with her for nearly five years, and it has never been damaged. Today, she did not use too much force, but the string broke for no reason!Suspicions arose in her heart, and she couldn't help but be speechless for a moment. The angel thought she was embarrassed, so he quickly laughed and said, "Why should the princess be angry about a few birds?" At this time, they had arrived at Yingkou, and everyone dismounted and walked. I saw two girls standing next to the gate of the camp. One was wearing a red Zhaojun pocket, with a beautiful face and a noble temperament, looking at the big eagle flying away in the sky ecstatically; Holding the guzheng in his hand, he stood behind her. "Princess Weiyang, it's rare to come out for a walk today." The angel greeted after dismounting, but his tone was a little disapproving - as a lady of the Song Dynasty royal family, she showed up casually outside, I don't know what the county king is doing To teach my daughter.To be called a model among the royal family? Princess Weiyang watched the giant eagle fly away, and slowly retracted her eyes. Seeing the bow and arrow in Princess Pipa's hand, a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth: "The one who shot the eagle just now must be this heroine?" Princess Pipa smiled and said: "The Princess has praised you." An inexplicable shadow also flashed in her eyes. Princess Weiyang looked at her and sighed: "I don't think there are such beauties in the desolate land beyond the Great Wall. The princess has both talents and looks, which is really admirable." She turned around while talking, but she didn't salute everyone.The angel was also very surprised to see her acting like this - you must know that Princess Weiyang has always been famous among the royal family for her peerless appearance and knowledge of books and etiquette, but today she doesn't care about etiquette at all, casually, which is surprising. Princess Pipa was also stunned for a moment, a shadow flickered inexplicably in her eyes.Then he turned his head and smiled at Ding Ning: "This is the general's wife in the future? She looks like a fairy and has a refined temperament. General Ding, I'm sure I'll drink this wedding wine!"
