The wind of wonder in Tianyue rises from the frontier fortress

Sudden memories swept across Chu Qingxi, her tears gushed out uncontrollably, and she cried until the pear blossoms rained down, her voice choked with breath.The guilt and regret she had been suppressing in her heart for the past few years all turned into tears, but her crying like this made Zhao Ning, Zhu Wen Bihen and others jump, just because in their eyes In the past, Chu Qingxi never changed her face when Mount Tai collapsed in front of her. How could she ever see such a fragile and helpless moment.

Seeing her crying so sadly, Zhao Ning couldn't help feeling more pity in her heart, she gently stretched out her hand, hugged Chu Qingxi in her arms, and silently let her tears wet her clothes.Zhu Wen and Bi Hen retreated quietly, just because at such a moment, sad people don't have arms, and the only thing other people can do is not to bother.

Chu Qingxi cried for a long time, but felt that her chest was loosened a lot. When she came back to her senses, she found that she was crying and fell into Zhao Ning's arms. She suddenly felt a little embarrassed, sat up straight in a hurry, and said with a forced smile: "I also For some reason, it actually stained your clothes..."

Zhao Ning gently took her hand, and said softly: "The clothes are not dirty, but you, but are you tired?" She knew that Chu Qingxi must have remembered the unbearable past, so she cried so sadly, It's just that now she knows that she shouldn't let her fall into the memory anymore, even if she is full of curiosity about her past, she shouldn't ask questions now.

Chu Qingxi naturally knew her thoughtfulness, and she couldn't help feeling a little relieved in her heart. Thinking of how hard it was for her to think about how hot and cold she was, she felt a little bit of compensation in her heart: "I'm here under this peach tree. Wait for a while, can you stay with me?"

She spoke softly to each other, looking at Zhao Ning with tenderness in her eyes.Anyone who has experienced relationships knows that if a woman with a cold temperament brings a little tenderness, her allure can often be multiplied exponentially.Just because things are rare and precious, they are usually unsmiling and not easy to get close to. Suddenly, it is like a gentle wind and a drizzle, and a spring breeze blows on the face. Anyone will have a feeling of being flattered and guarded by the clouds.

Naturally, Zhao Ning was no exception, her heart was beating a bit violently, just because of Chu Qingxi's gentle and pleasant words, and a shy and gentle smile on her face.Zhao Ning felt that her throat was a little dry, she nodded her head in panic, looking at Chu Qingxi's slightly closed beautiful eyes, she was a little crazy for a while.

"Do you have a lot of questions in your mind?" Zhao Ning was in a daze when he heard Chu Qingxi ask with his eyes closed.

"Well, I'm very curious. But right now, I don't want to know too much, I just want you to rest for a while, Sister Chu." Zhao Ning silently covered Chu Qingxi, who was crooked on the imperial concubine's couch, with a thin layer. blanket.

Chu Qingxi tilted her body contentedly, and her face had already returned to the previous calm: "I'm fine, it was just a momentary feeling, and I thought of my old friend." She made a comforting gesture in the air, and said: " Am I bluffing you?"

Zhao Ning shook her head and said, "That's not true, it's just that I was very sad to see you crying so sad." She seemed to muster up a lot of courage, and suddenly said: "Sister Chu, I will always be happy in the future. With you, I will never make you so sad again."

There was a "thump" in Chu Qingxi's heart, the familiar words were also said a long time ago.Yes, back then Chu Ge also told himself so piously that he would always be by his side, but what happened?Now that she has a beloved Miss Hu, she must have long forgotten the vows she made to herself back then.

Thinking of this, Chu Qingxi couldn't help but smiled wryly. To this day, she still can't forget these old things, and even she herself looks down on herself a little bit.

It's just that now she doesn't quite understand what Zhao Ning meant by saying this, and she doesn't want to face Zhao Ning's gradually showing affection, just because she hasn't sorted out her emotions, and she's not sure whether she has changed from The past events from that year came out, and she didn't know what kind of positioning she had for this straightforward and bright little princess in front of her.

So she had no choice but to smile slightly at Zhao Ning, which was a response to her sincere promise.Zhao Ning didn't know that she still had these entanglements in her heart. Seeing her smiling at her, she thought that Chu Qingxi had the same thoughts as her. For a while, she only felt a little sweetness in her heart, but she would not be able to distinguish these feelings in the future of origin.

But no matter what, after experiencing this incident, the two of them got along with each other naturally with a little more tacit understanding and intimacy.But at this time and here under the peach blossom tree, the two of them sat and leaned together, enjoying the rare intimacy, which also meant that the years were quiet and stable in this world.

Just when the two were looking at each other, enjoying the rare tranquility, they heard voices from outside the courtyard, and Zhu Wen answered the door. It turned out that it was the mother and daughter of the Li family who came to visit.

Mrs. Li took Sister Li Gui, carrying a basket of eggs and two pairs of newly made embroidered shoes on top of it.When they entered the door, they saw Chu Qingxi and Zhao Ning under the peach blossom tree. The mother and daughter rushed to catch up, without saying a word, they knelt down and kowtowed.

Chu Qingxi called Zhu Wen to help the two of them up, and the Li family thanked them with endless blessings: "Miss Chu, Song Taisui really retired. He said that the Bodhisattva appeared, and asked him to go to Tianlong Temple to ask for a signature. Said that he should not accept a young man, otherwise there will be a disaster of blood and light, and the disaster of destroying the family. Good girl, I don’t know what method you have thought of to make the Bodhisattva manifest, but you saved my sister Gui, and you are my family’s great benefactor, old woman The family doesn't have anything good to show respect for, so we can only show our affection with these vulgar things, and hope the girl won't dislike it."

Chu Qingxi did not refuse when he heard the words, and motioned to Zhu Wen to accept the gift, while solemnly saying: "Aunt Li, this matter is over, so don't bring it up again. Sister Gui is getting older, so I'll find someone for her sooner." A good family will save you from having long nights and dreams, and causing people to miss you in vain."

Mrs. Li repeatedly agreed: "The old woman is also planning to do this. When her younger brother is stronger, she will find an honest family for her to marry. We don't want those rich and noble families. We just want to treat Sister Gui as a person. In this life, men can farm and women weavers can sing and women can do whatever they want.”

After such a short exchange of pleasantries, Mrs. Li took Sister Gui to say goodbye and left. Before leaving, Chu Qingxi asked Zhu Wen to wrap a few taels of silver, in the pretense of buying some nourishing items for Li Xiaodi. But I can't refuse, so I have to thank you and go out.

Looking at the backs of them gradually leaving, Zhao Ning couldn't help sighing, causing Chu Qingxi to wonder: "It's so good, why are you sighing?"

Zhao Ning said sadly: "The people's livelihood is difficult, and this little old man who is the commander in chief can actually run rampant in Yurou Township. Today, Li Guijie met us, so she escaped a catastrophe, but the world is so big, I don't know how many people there are. Sister Li Gui, but she has no way to ask for heaven but not for earth."

Chu Qingxi saw that she felt sorry for her, and felt a little funny: "I didn't expect that you still have a heart of loving and cherishing the people, which is very rare."

Zhao Ning said: "It's a pity that although my father and brothers are extremely high-ranking, they have never really known the hardships of people's livelihood. Their minds are nothing but fighting for power and profit, and they have nothing else to do."

Chu Qingxi said: "At that time, you never thought about inheriting your father's lineage?"

Zhao Ning was startled, and lost his voice: "How can it be done? The throne has always been passed on to the prince, so there is no such thing as the emperor's concubine succeeding to the throne."

Chu Qingxi sneered and said: "Theoretically speaking, the throne must be passed on to the crown prince, but in the past dynasties, how many princes have been able to ascend to the dragon throne smoothly?"

Zhao Ning was taken aback for a moment, but then he smiled and said, "I never thought of being an emperor. When my father was here, he was obedient to me and answered my every request. I never even thought that one day my father would suddenly leave me. .”

Chu Qingxi beckoned to her gently, and Zhao Ning leaned on her lap, and said: "Actually, there is nothing good about being an emperor. It is necessary to balance the forces of the various factions in the court, and also to beware of riots and looting at the border. , if there is another calamity year and refugees, it will make people burnt out and can't sleep at night. I also don't have the heart-raising skills of my father and brother. If I become the emperor, I will undoubtedly be roasted on the fire. It's not about killing me."

Chu Qingxi played with her long black and smooth hair, and couldn't help laughing: "You are talking about the days of being a good emperor. If you are an emperor who only cares about the comfort in front of you and doesn't care about the life and death of the people, wouldn't you be able to enjoy the sea of ​​wine? Night life."

Zhao Ning frowned and said: "Actually, when Father was in Japan, he was addicted to flowers and spent people's money. I don't know how many times I have persuaded him. It's just that Father has only had this hobby in his life, so even if he obeyed my advice, but in On this point, it was ignored." She said, and became a little worried: "Even though the father was very obsessed with it, but after all, he was a little restrained." She paused, quite She said with some difficulty: "But now this one..." She sighed slightly: "If the emperor is still there, I will definitely not choose him."

Chu Qingxi patted her face lightly, and said softly: "Don't worry about it if you're not in the position and don't plan for politics. Just like what you said, you never thought of being an emperor anyway, so why bother?" Go worry about irrelevant hearts."

Zhao Ning blushed slightly and said with a smile: "That's right, I am not in the temple, not to mention, if I was still in the palace, how could I meet you." Her eyebrows and eyes were curved, and she was a little more joyful Meaning: "Actually speaking, I also want to thank Zhao Ren. If he hadn't let me marry Khitan, how could I be with you now." As she spoke, she raised her head, her eyes sparkling and full of joy. Meaning of joy: "Sister Chu, you don't even know how happy I am to meet you."

Chu Qingxi was also affected by her beaming expression: "I thought that I would be alone in the rivers and lakes from now on, but I didn't expect to meet you." She looked around the small courtyard, and said: "What's even more unexpected is that , I will live with you in this small courtyard, and there are two more girls."

Zhao Ning said with a smile: "There is nothing wrong with such a day." She rolled her big eyes, and suddenly pulled Chu Qingxi's sleeve and smiled: "Sister Chu, you are so good at martial arts, you can teach me martial arts ?”, the more she thought about it, the better, she couldn’t help clapping her hands and laughing: “Sister Chu, and Zhu Wen and Bihen, you taught us, if someone bullies us in the future, you should have some help.”

While laughing, she raised her voice to call Zhu Wen and Bihen over. She twisted her body and stuck to Chu Qingxi's body like candy, and called out with a tired voice, "Sister Chu, just teach us."

Chu Qingxi got goosebumps all over her body because of her entanglement, and couldn't help shouting in a low voice: "It's good to sit up straight and talk." While breaking free from Zhao Ning's entanglement, she thought to herself: "At the moment, my skills are too difficult Fu, if you encounter any tough opponents, it will be difficult to deal with. Anyway, I have nothing to do right now, so I can teach them some skills, so I can be prepared."

"Then what do you want to learn? Fist with palms pointing at legs, sword with pen and whip, what do you want to learn?" Chu Qingxi asked seriously.

Zhao Ning and Zhu Wen Bihen saw that she was really willing to teach them martial arts, they couldn't help cheering in unison, shouting again and again: "Learn all!"
