Light Red Northern Song

Zhenbei Camp was indeed located among the mountains, just after you arrived, when everyone stepped near the tents, they heard the sound of ritual music, and outside the main camp tents, there were soldiers standing along the road with bonfires lit.

Jing Rou opened her eyes, straightened her body, and asked, "Is this specification exaggerated?"

"His Royal Highness, the marshal was very happy to learn that the imperial court envoy was very happy, and he thought about how to welcome the envoy for several days."

"How is the second emperor's time in the army?" Jingrou seemed to have just remembered this person.

"Reporting to Your Highness, the marshal is brave and good at fighting, and he is also learning military affairs very quickly." After Qiao Jinzhi finished speaking, he stopped the horse, dismounted himself first, and called Xia Le and others to help the master.

"Congratulations, Your Royal Highness Princess Jingrou!"

As soon as everyone reached the outermost perimeter, they heard shouts that shook the mountains.

Jingrou suddenly heard such a big movement, and saw a group of soldiers kneeling neatly on the ground, she was really frightened.

"Your Highness, there are many gravels under your feet, walk slowly." Qiao Jinzhi caught a glimpse of the other's frightened expression, hurried to her, and reminded her softly.

Jing Rou turned to look at her, knowing that she was comforting herself.Under the beating of the firelight, the other party's face no longer had the cold and arrogant look before, but instead possessed a kind of warm power that could make him feel at ease.

"The generals are flat."

"Thank you, Your Highness!" Accompanied by the uniform standing movements, there was another shout that shook the mountains.

"Haha! Little Huangmei, you are here!" Qi Zhiyu strode forward from the camp, and said with a happy smile in front of everyone.

"Brother Erhuang came to the army, and his demeanor is even better than before." Jing Rou also laughed.

"Little Huangmei is still so cute and smart, come here! Follow Brother Huang into the camp, and the soldiers are still waiting for your fine wine." Qi Zhiyu led everyone into the camp as he said.

Because the Zhenbei Camp was established after the founding of the Qi State, and it is also a long-term and fixed garrison. After these years of construction and expansion, many buildings in the camp are the same as anywhere else.Only about [-]% of the entire barracks are tents, and most of them are located outside the barracks.

A banquet has been set up on the drill field in front of the Chinese Army camp.In the first two tables, Qi Zhiyu and Jingrou are seated separately.On the left side of the lower head sit two officials from the Ministry of Rites sent by the imperial court.Sitting on the right side are Qiao Jinzhi, Master Cao and Master Yang, etc.After everyone was seated, Qi Zhiyu gave a simple welcome speech, and the soldiers were elated.

Everyone was drinking and laughing.After a while, Jing Rou saw some female soldiers among them from a distance, and asked the people beside her, "How many female soldiers are in the camp?"

"Huh? At present, there are about a hundred of them." Qi Zhiyu thought for a while and replied.

"Now? What about before?"

"Well, General Miao, tell me." Qi Zhiyu turned his head and asked.

"Reporting to Your Highness, when Jinzhi was in the camp, there were at most six hundred people. Later," General Miao turned his head to look at Qiao Jinzhi, and continued, "Later Jinzhi left, and the female soldiers...well, maybe they were the military administrators. If not, the number of female soldiers will decrease.”

"That's it," Jing Rou was about to say something, but saw a dozen girls in green clothes walking into the playground and dancing.She asked again puzzled, "These people?"

"These are, they are the reinforcements in the army." Qi Zhiyu replied with an embarrassed smile.

"Replenishment?" Jing Rou looked around the crowd, all the soldiers in the arena were drinking and watching the dance, and there were very few soldiers with unconcealable desires on their faces.Several generals were discussing something in a low voice, while Qiao Jinzhi frowned slightly and looked at him.

"Replenishment?" Jingrou asked again.

"The man was convicted, and his wife and daughter were exiled to the frontier. If the death penalty is serious, the wife will serve as a supplementary soldier. During the day, she will serve as a handyman to support the army's logistics." Qi Zhiyu still bowed his head in embarrassment.

"Daytime?" Jing Rou tasted the other party's words, and naturally understood where his embarrassment came from.If there is a day job, there is a night job.She suddenly felt uncomfortable, lowered her head and closed her eyes.Now that she is here, the soldiers will not be too presumptuous, but what can she say about the matter in the barracks under the night?

People who have been in the military camp for a long time seem to be used to this, so only Qi Zhiyu, who just came to the camp from the imperial city, and Qiao Jin, who is a woman, behave differently.After a while, Jing Rou tilted her head and said softly: "Brother Huang, sister Huang is a little tired."

"There are separate camps for male and female soldiers in the barracks." Qi Zhiyu pointed to a certain building with his right hand and said, "There is a female barracks on the west side, Royal Sister, I have wronged you to sleep there these days."

"What grievances are you talking about? Brother Huang, let Qiao Jinzhi go back together. Sister Huang has something to ask her."

"It's okay, the soldiers are also tense during this time, and it's not convenient for the female soldiers to stay after the meeting. The emperor's brother will arrange it, and the emperor's sister can go."

Jingrou stood up, nodded with several generals, and then led her palace servants around the banquet table.She came to Qiao Jinzhi, who also stood up.

"Let's go together."

"Yes, Your Highness." Qiao Jinzhi bent down and cupped her hands in response.

The hustle and bustle behind them gradually diminished, and as soon as the group stepped into the women's barracks, they saw Lin Yuan running towards them.

"His Highness is back so soon?"

"Well, where does the Taoist priest want to go?"

"Me? I didn't want to go anywhere. I just saw His Highness came back and came to welcome you."

"This one is Taoist Master Yun Zhan, Taoist Master Linyuan." Jingrou turned her head and introduced to Qiao Jinzhi.

"This is Master Qiao who went to Taniguchi to meet me at noon, I know." Lin Yuan said with a smile.

"Has the Taoist priest's residence been arranged?" Jingrou asked again.

"It's arranged, it's near His Highness's bedroom."

"That priest should rest earlier." Jing Rou walked forward after finishing speaking.

"Ah?" Before Lin Yuan could react, he was chased away.

"Your Highness, that's where you lived these days." Qiao Jinzhi said, pointing to a house in Xiying.

"Where is Lord Joe's?"

"Report to Your Highness, over there." Qiao Jinzhi replied pointing in another direction.

"There are still two houses across." Jing Rou stopped and asked, "Who made the arrangements?"

"Reporting to Your Highness, the arrangement was made by the Marshal himself to protect His Highness's safety."

"Go down first." After a group of palace people entered the room with Jing Rou, they made a simple settlement, and then the master spoke.

"I heard from Qiao Minzhi that it's dry and cold here at night. I brought you a padded jacket and I'll send someone to deliver it to you later." Jing Rou and the others went down, then sat on the stool and said.

"Thank you, Your Highness, for your concern." Qiao Jinzhi stood in front of her and leaned over to reply.

"It's just the two of us here, but you're still holding it." Jingrou didn't have any sense of superiority or inferiority in her bones, and she was a little angry when she saw the other party being so born.

"Your Highness," Qiao Jinzhi raised her head to look at her, her eyes sparkling like spring water.She looked at him for a while and said with a shy smile, "I haven't seen you for a long time, I'm a little uncomfortable with the humble job."

"It's been a long time, look, have I grown taller?" Jing Rou suddenly stood up, and jumped in front of the other party.

"..." Qiao Jinzhi faced her, blushing instantly.

"Haha! Qiao Jinzhi, are you shy?" Jing Rou was in a good mood.

"Your Highness, you, you are more naughty than before."

"Really? I have always been like this, and you will understand later."

In fact, Jing Rou is a little conflicted and distressed, she really wants to talk about her family affairs, her father and sister, but she dare not speak, for fear of touching her sad things.So he intentionally teased her, so that she could relax temporarily and not feel lonely and sad.

"Jinzhi, can I call you Jinzhi?"

"You can call in private, Your Highness."

"Privately? Then General Miao calls you Jinzhi in public, but I can only call you in private?" Jing Rou curled her lips and said.

"Here, General Miao is an old subordinate of my father. He grew up watching humble positions."

Speaking of the word "father", Qiao Jin suddenly stopped.

"Jin Zhi." Jing Rou felt even more distressed.She knew that in such a situation, any words were useless.So she had no choice but to slowly stretch out her hand, and gently tugged on the other person's sleeve, trying to relieve this person's sadness and pain.

"Jinzhi, I'll be with you from now on." A moment later, she pinched the other's sleeve with her backhand, raised her head slightly, and approached the other's face softly with affectionate eyes.

"Your Highness." Qiao Jinzhi felt her eyes sore when she heard the words. She cried before when her mother and father passed away, but now she wants to cry because of a word from the other party?She fell into memory as she thought about it.

The two remained silent for an unknown amount of time.

Can anyone understand Jingrou's inner turmoil at this moment?Because of her almost obsessive behavior just now, she also recalled all the things she had met with Qiao Jinzhi, and suddenly realized that she was really stupid.Originally, I only thought that I was belatedly aware of the relationship, but I didn't think deeply about it.Now she went through the relationship between the two of them in depth, and only then did she feel a sense of enlightenment.The person who is always on my mind is already in my heart, isn't it?

So I fell in love with her!This is bad, Qiao Jinzhi is an ancient person, will she accept herself?Thinking of this, she quickly let go of her hand, lowered her head and turned around.

"Your Highness, are you shy too?" After a long while, Qiao Jinzhi asked with a chuckle behind him.

"I, I was just thinking, have I grown taller? You never answer." Jingrou rolled her eyes and changed the subject.

"Whether your Highness will grow taller is indeed a question worth pondering, no wonder His Highness has been thinking about it for so long." Qiao Jinzhi still teased with a smile.

"... "

Jingrou was still turning her back on her back, but she suddenly turned around and said, "Good job, Qiao Jinzhi! You're good at satirizing people!"

Qiao Jinzhi looked at the other party steadfastly, with a smile still on her face.

After all, she is delicate and intelligent. In the memory, when the two of them were together, if the care and love of the other party could not convince her, then add that brocade, that wooden comb, that kind of concern... and all the things we met today, just now. The other party's emotional movement at that moment made her feel a strong sense of affection.

At first she was happy, but after a while, she seemed to think of something, she stopped smiling, with inexplicable sadness on her face, and said in a low voice: "Your Highness, you are not yet ready."

"Why did you say this all of a sudden?" Jing Rou asked puzzledly, frowning.

"Your Highness, do you know that people's hearts are the most changeable, let alone you are so young." Qiao Jinzhi turned around, sighed and said slowly, then walked towards the door.It is one thing to have feelings for her, but how deep is the love and how long will it last?She has no confidence at all.Being both women is the first obstacle, she is still a royal princess, and as I said, the other party is still so young, her temperament is not yet determined, there are too many variables.

"You said I would change?" Jing Rou sensitively sensed the other party's doubts, and asked uneasily.

"Your Highness, the world is big, there are too many people and things that can confuse us, and the future is always unpredictable. How many people can be as firm as they are, and they will never change their words? A momentary love is as easy as flowing water." How can you treat it as a solid rock?" Qiao Jinzhi closed her eyes, took a deep breath and said slowly.

Jing Rou calmed down upon hearing this.She understood what the other person meant.In an instant, he came to the other party's side and stood side by side with him, his mind was flowing, and he looked ahead.

"You are right, Bai Yuncanggou, how can we predict and grasp the changes in the world? But, my love is not like passing water, and my will is far more firm than you imagined." She said Then he stretched out his hand to lightly pinch the other's sleeve, and turned sideways to look at the person in front of him.

Hearing this, Qiao Jinzhi also turned sideways.The two stood facing each other and looked at each other for a long time.

"This feeling, this meaning, if you understand, then we will move forward together. We are not afraid of wind and rain, but we are afraid that our feelings will be too late, our intentions will be uncertain, and our hearts will be inconsistent." Jing Rou leaned close to the other party's body, shaking the sleeves she was holding in her hands , and then raised his head, his eyes overflowed with passion, looked into the eyes of the other party, and said love words word by word.

This night was so beautiful.
