[The Legend of Mulan] Daughter Love

The primary selection of embroidered women is held in the county government. It is only necessary to register the names of the embroidered village and embroidered women, the weaving specifications of the family, and take out a piece of finished silk from the embroidered village.There were quite a few people who came to sign up. Zhiqing accompanied the eighth grandfather to the county government and waited outside, standing with the embroidered girls who came out one after another after the registration.

Not long after, Mulan, Chunsi, Zisu, and Fuling all came out of the county government office, talking and laughing together, waiting for the result.They are all very confident. It's just the primary election, and they should all be selected. It's just that they don't know how many people will be in the weaving and embroidery competition.

Xie Qichen and Babeican had a look at the silks of each embroidery village one by one, and after discussing, they ordered the county magistrate to post a notice. There were only four famous ones on the list: Jinxiu Villa, Luoshen Manor, Huaerjin and Huanhuayuan.The weaving and embroidery competition will be held three days later, and there will be silk, needle threading, weaving and embroidery and embroidery demonstrations.

Mulan rushed home to tell her parents the good news, so they said a few more words and went home.The perimeter of the county government office was full of people looking at the notice, Zhiqing and Chunsi squeezed out of the crowd together, "Sister Chunsi..."

She was about to congratulate her on being selected again, but she caught a glimpse of a person standing at the entrance of the alley, looking towards the county government.That tall figure, unruly expression, and the smile that always hangs on the corner of her lips... Zhiqing was startled—it was Duo Lun, and he was in the Kingdom of Wei!

She quickly lowered her head, pulled the spring silk and walked aside.Seeing that her complexion was not good, Chunsi asked anxiously: "Zhiqing, what's wrong with you?"

"Sister Chunsi, there are few people over there, we go over there to enter the county government office, grandpa must be waiting for us." Zhiqing hurriedly turned around holding Chunsiu's hand.She didn't want Duo Lun to find herself, not only because she didn't want to have anything to do with Rouran, but also because she was not ready to face him.

Duo Lun, who was leaning against the wall at the entrance of the alley, seemed to be aware of it. He misunderstood his eyes, flashed past his eyes, and caught a side face.That sense of familiarity... Duo Lun's heart skipped a beat, and he rushed over without even thinking about it. He rushed into the crowd beside the notice, looking back and forth carefully. There were people all around, but none of them were the one he was familiar with. Face.

The panic and confusion on his face were gradually replaced by loneliness, Duo Lun smiled bitterly, "It must be my eyesight, how could I see Li Duo, she is already dead..." Losing the mood of watching the excitement, he took The horse at the entrance of the alley left the county office feeling disappointed.

……

Although the sad things were brought up, Duo Lun is a person who can afford to let go. He came from Rouran to Wei Guo to find the person behind Xin Yi Hua, so the next day, he was still wandering around in the Valley of the Five Phoenixes probing.Early in the morning, he went to Huaerjin first, and there was no one in the yard. He slowly approached the embroidery room, but saw the girl who had wanted to buy a horse from him was embroidering.

Duo Lun heard that she was called Mulan, and she also has a pair of skillful hands, especially when she is embroidering, her concentration looks like a person.He smiled slightly, walked a little closer, saw the flowers Mulan was embroidering, and couldn't help but exclaimed: "Oh, look, you can't even tell the bees on the flowers you are embroidering."

Mulan raised her head to look at the person who exaggeratedly admired her, she couldn't help but frowned, she was a little ignorant, "It's you, what's the matter?"

Duo Lun hooked the corners of his lips, "I want to buy some silk embroidered with flowers, do you have it here?"

Mulan put away the embroidery in her hand, stood up, and said, "Then you've come to the right place, our beautiful flowers are the best in the Valley of the Five Phoenixes."

Duo Lun raised his eyebrows in disbelief, "Then do you have any flowers here?"

"There are embroidered works on the wall, and there is also a pattern here. As long as you tell me, we can embroider."

"Impossible?" Duo Lun took the pattern, flipped through it from beginning to end, and put it on the table, "You have too few patterns here!"

"That's not enough?" Seeing that he didn't seem to be here to buy silk, Mulan was a little annoyed, thinking, what's the matter with this man, he refused to sell horses last time, and now he still says that there are few patterns of Huaerjin. "Do you want to buy silk or not?"

"Buy." Duo Lun looked around in the embroidery workshop, walked to the silk-like shelves, and randomly ordered, "I want one piece of this, two pieces of this one, and this, two pieces, below That one."

When Mulan saw that he was really buying silk, she talked about business with him in a respectful manner, "I remember everything, but our Huaerjin may be late for delivery, I wonder if you can wait?"

Duo Lun looked around, and responded casually, "Oh!" But he immediately responded, "Ah? Why are you late in delivery?"

"I'm going to participate in the selection of embroidery girls for weaving and drawing, so I don't have time these few days."

"You also want to participate in the competition with Qin Tu!" Duo Lun looked at Mulan incomprehensibly. Since Xie Qichen issued the decree of weaving and Qin Tu that day, everyone in Wufenggu seems to be concerned about this issue, and they want to make Embroider the picture with your relatives.

Seeing his surprise, Mulan just smiled confidently, "Of course, getting married is a major national event, and I certainly hope I can contribute!"

Seeing the expression on Mulan's face, Duo Lun was stunned for a moment, remembering that in the grassland, Li Duo also told him confidently that she was delaying for Wu Ti.They always spoke easily and naturally, and she could always guess what he was thinking, although she never admitted that they were friends.Duo Lun pulled back his thoughts in a trance, and said softly: "You are very similar to a girl I know."

Mulan looked at him strangely and asked, "Do we look alike?"

"No." Duo Lun shook his head and said: "It feels like it, especially when you embroidered just now." He couldn't help smiling again, "The temper is also a bit similar, and they are so stubborn. As long as she wants to do something, she will do everything possible." Do it too."

Mulan couldn't help being curious, "Who are you talking about, in Gaoche?"

"It's not here..." Duo Lun frowned and didn't say any more. Anyway, there was no clue about Xinyihua, so he said "don't bother me" and left Hua'erjin.

……

Three days passed quickly, and the public selection of embroidered girls finally started.Chun silk, Poria cocos, Mulan, and perilla carried their embroidery works onto the stage specially built for the competition.In addition to these four weaving households, Wu Yaya, their relatives, customers, and people from other embroidery houses who are familiar with them in Wufeng Valley accounted for a large group of people.Duo Lun was also in the mix, and when Xie Qichen and Eighth Grandfather came to sit down on the stage, the county magistrate issued an order, the gong sounded, and the competition began.

"First round, Mosi!"

In Wufeng Valley, a competition of weaving and embroidery skills is being staged.However, in Luoshen Manor, Zhiqing asked people to bring silk, embroidery needles, silk for bottom embroidery, incense burner and incense.Although she doesn't want to participate in the selection, she also wants to know whether her skills are higher or lower compared with Chunsi, Mulan, Poria, and Perilla.

Half a stick of incense is the limit, and the silk...

Half a stick of incense is the limit, threading a needle...

No time limit, embroider now...

In the arena, three subjects have been performed, whether it is silk, needle threading, or embroidery, Mulan is better.The fourth subject is about to begin, and each embroiderer has to present the best work that can reflect their embroidery skills.Spring silk is a picture of a lady in red, basil is a picture of a cat playing with a ball, and the charming green bamboo of Poria embroidery is a masterpiece.

Whether on or off the stage, everyone was looking forward to Mulan's work. When the scroll was presented, Grandpa Eight smiled and showed the picture, but to everyone's surprise, it turned out to be an ordinary magnolia flower weaving and embroidery picture.The faces of those who knew and understood magnolia flowers suddenly changed. Wei Guoming ordered magnolia flowers to be banned nationwide, planting, embroidery, and painting, but now, there is an embroidery of magnolia flowers in front of them.

Xie Qichen's face turned cold on the spot, he slapped the table, "Come here, take down Hua Mulan!"

Zhiqing completed three subjects, but she didn't prepare for the fourth subject. Every piece of her previous work was embroidered with care, which can well show her embroidery skills, so there is no need to prepare.She had been sitting in the garden waiting for her grandfather and Chunsi to come back, hoping to hear the result of the competition, but she did not expect that what she was waiting for was indeed the news that Mulan was in prison, because she embroidered magnolia flowers.

Mulan was imprisoned, and the embroidery competition was over, and everyone was panicked.Back at the county government office, Xie Qichen's first task was to interrogate County magistrate Chen. He wanted to know whether the Wufeng Valley knew about the imperial court's ban, and whether anyone had mentioned and privately planted magnolia flowers.County magistrate Chen trembled with fear from Xie Qichen's aggressive eyes. He assured again and again, and swore to God, that no magnolia flower appeared in Wufeng Valley.Later, Xie Qichen interrogated Hua Mulan again. Although he threatened and pressured her, Mulan said with certainty that the magnolia flower was not embroidered by her, and she had never even seen it.

Xie Qichen pressed Mulan's words without mercy, but in fact he also had doubts in his heart, thinking that Mulan might have been framed.According to the laws of the Great Wei, anyone who involves the magnolia flower will be killed without mercy.He is the general of Wei, so he has no choice but to obey, but before killing someone, he must do his best to find out the truth.

He personally went to Huaerjin to see Mulan's usual craftsmanship and the pattern of the peony picture, then went to Tianxing Hall to ask Luo Zhao, and then went to Luoshen Manor to find Babeican, and asked him to help him see the magnolia flower weaving. Embroidered from who's hands.

Hearing the news that Mulan was imprisoned, someone reported General Xie’s visit again, Zhiqing hurried to the front hall and hid inside to eavesdrop on the conversation between his grandfather and General Xie. Who embroidered it came out.Zhiqing couldn't help being disappointed, she also glanced at the picture, it was really too ordinary.

"Sir, Xie is leaving now, and I have to check the shops that Huaerjin has dealings with."

"Thank you, General, for your kindness."

Xie Qichen stood up, and Eighth Grandpa stood up to see him off. When he turned around, Zhiqing raised his head and saw Xie Qichen's side face clearly, "It's him!" If someone put a knife on your neck, you must not Will forget what he looks like.

Seeing the man leave in a hurry, Zhiqing couldn't help worrying about Mulan.Xie Qichen was born in the army, killing people is nothing to him, magnolia flowers are forbidden by the royal family, if he obeys the emperor's order and kills as an example, then Mulan may...

Things went exactly as Zhiqing expected, Xie Qichen's investigation was fruitless, and he decided to ask Mulan to kill tomorrow at [-]:[-] noon.

The night was dark, everyone in Luoshen Manor had already fallen asleep, Hua Hu and Jia Yun hurried over, waking Eighth Grandpa and sleeping Zhiqing.Grandpa Eight couldn't bear the two of them kneeling on the ground begging, and promised to jointly name all the weaver households in Wufeng Valley to be Mulan's guarantee tomorrow morning, hoping to win a chance of survival.Zhiqing stood at the door of the room and looked at Master Hua and Aunt Yun. She usually wanted to be safe and would not force herself to stand out, but this time, she had to find a way to fight against Mulan.

The author has something to say: I thought it was obvious who the hero is, but everyone didn't see it, maybe they didn't want to admit it.The hero is Xie Qichen. As for Duo Lun and Wu Ti, please take your time and look back.In fact, I don't like spoilers. I like to follow the plot when I read the article, because the occurrence and development of the whole story is a process.I know that the hero is not Duo Lun, and some people may be disappointed, but I have already decided when I first set it, so I hope people who like this story will continue to support me!

Run away with the pot lid on, don't hit me... tears...
