General, he's cheating again

Chapter 79

An old peach tree at the foot of the yard has lost its fruit and leaves after the severe winter, leaving only bare branches of dead wood that grow horizontally and are pressed by the snow, which echoes the Fendai wall in the cold wind.

And this winter is about to pass, and if you want to see such a scene of snow pressing dead branches, you will have to wait until next year.

"Master, what happened between the general and Mr. Qin?"

Aren and Lengji, who are of equal stature, are standing in the cold courtyard gate. The two people's complexion is brown and white. At this time, they only dare to look at Qin Qingrong who is standing on the porch and staring at the old tree silently from a distance, whispering talk.

Ah Ren was a little frustrated, he lowered his head and frowned slightly and muttered: "Master Qin, he hasn't spoken to us for a long time, Master, does he not like us anymore?"

"Ah Ren, don't think too much."

Leng Ji tilted his head and patted Ah Ren's shoulder to express comfort, "Master Qin will be fine."

"But he has been depressed all day long, and he has been ignoring us for half a month." Ah Ren said with some grievances: "Master Hua said that Mr. Qin is sick and needs to take medicine. So a few days ago I gave Mr. Qin the medicine boiled by Master Hua, but Mr. Qin said that he was not sick.

Later, after I persuaded him a few words, Mr. Qin smashed the medicine bowl to the ground, and he never said a word to me again. "

After Ah Ren finished speaking, the two of them looked at Qin Qingrong again by coincidence and became more silent.

Qin Qingrong didn't just treat Ah Ren like this, except for Gu Zhen, everyone else was also rejected by him now.

And Gu Zhen didn't get any better, almost every day there was a new tooth mark on his body.Once, Qin Qingrong bit directly on the back of his hand, and everyone silently expressed sympathy for Gu Zhen in their hearts after noticing the black and purple bite marks during breakfast the next day.

But even so, Gu Zhen still hummed a little song every day and strode into Qin Qingrong's yard with big strides.I don't know where he heard so many bizarre folk rumors. He seemed to have endless things to say every day, always smiling at Qin Qingrong with his eyes squinted and his head tilted, and he couldn't stop nagging.

When Qin Qingrong was practicing calligraphy, he leaned over and chattered in a self-conscious manner; when Qin Qingrong enjoyed the scenery, he also chattered non-stop; when Qin Qingrong sat on the bed in a daze, he leaned cross-legged on Qin Qingrong's shoulder and talked endlessly .

Unable to bear Gu Zhen's endless nagging, Qin Qingrong grabbed Gu Zhen's flesh and bit it, until Gu Zhen was so painful that he couldn't speak before he let go.

After turning off the lights, Qin Qingrong slept on the bed, facing the wall, frowning and annoyed, "Why are you talking so much now, you're sick."

In the darkness, Qin Qingrong couldn't see Gu Zhen's expression at this time, and he didn't want to.

Beside him, Gu Zhen's eyes dimmed, and he replied in a deep voice for a long time, "You don't want to speak now, you have changed."

Originally sleepy thoughts because of the troubles in the heart, Qin Qingrong couldn't sleep even if he wanted to sleep, but after hearing Gu Zhen's words, Qin Qingrong didn't feel sleepy anymore.

A pair of peach blossom eyes were full of sobriety, Qin Qingrong stared at the inner wall, and her throat was inexplicably choked up.

He turned around and hugged Gu Zhen, then closed his eyes tightly and said in a low voice, "I don't talk to you, but I never refuse to approach you."

"If you don't speak, you will become dumb."

Gu Zhen also hugged him, his tone full of distress.But the person in his arms didn't want to say any more, he said a lot intermittently, and this person was as silent as a log.

The days passed day by day like this, and when the spring was warm and the flowers were blooming, Qin Qingrong watched the old tree in the corner of the courtyard melt the snow and sprout with his own eyes.

He looked forward to it day and night, just begging himself not to miss the moment when the first peach blossom was in full bloom.But one morning not many days later, when he walked outside the door, he found that the peach blossom that was about to bloom had disappeared.

While feeling annoyed, he saw a wicked person outside the courtyard gate smiling and waving at him, with a peach blossom still twirling between his fingers.

Qin Qingrong was ashamed, this graceful flower that was supposed to stand on the branch was picked off just before it bloomed.

Not far away, Gu Zhen was twirling the flowers and approaching him slowly. Gu Zhen handed the flowers to his eyes and raised his eyebrows slightly, pretending to be arrogant, "Master Qin, you and this general How about getting married?"

The hand that was just about to pick up the flowers was suspended in the air, Qin Qingrong raised his eyes and looked at Gu Zhen, the two of them dodged each other and pressed forward step by step.

Gu Zhen hooked his lips and smiled involuntarily. With his slender fingers, he pinned the peach blossoms into Qin Qingrong's hair. He lightly touched Qin Qingrong's forehead with his knuckles and pretended to say with emotion: "It's so strange. At first, the general thought that you don't want to leave your hair. Flowers will be like a woman.

At this time, she doesn't look coquettish, but looks like a pink flower floating in a pool of clear water. "

"Gu Zhen."

Looking up at the smiling person, Qin Qingrong's cheeks were flushed, and she was still immersed in the words of marriage, "How do two men get married?"

Gu Zhen smiled, and asked back: "Haha, why can't two men get married?

This general has three books and six rituals, eight lifts of a sedan chair, and ten miles of red makeup. You will not be missing.

If you don't like wearing a red hijab, don't cover it.But the bridal chamber candles are also indispensable, uh, let’s forget about those with jujube and osmanthus seeds. "

"Pfft."

After so many days, Qin Qingrong finally squinted his eyes and smiled from the bottom of his heart. He shook his head and said, "It's still strange not to get married."

"What's so strange?"

Gu Zhen took Qin Qingrong into his arms and hugged her tightly, "Now, you finally remember all the past, so why hesitate?

You are obviously very happy, but you still say it is strange, you are always so contradictory. "

Feeling suffocated by Gu Zhen, Qin Qingrong reluctantly agreed: "Well, Qin is very happy to marry General Gu.

General Gu should let me go, I'm going to be out of breath. "

Being coaxed by a peach blossom into a promise, the people in the villa either laughed at Mr. Qin for being soft-tempered and talkative after hearing about the big happy event, or secretly laughed at the owner of the villa who was thick-skinned and thought about empty gloves all day long. Wolf.

"It's not that the head of the hall said you. You should give someone a token of love anyway. What are you doing with a peach blossom? Are you making wine and hiding it?"

Hua Yan shook his head and sighed while grinding the medicine powder, but he thought in his heart that the two had finally reconciled after so many days of mischief.

"Hiss, token of love... This general remembers giving him a jade pendant before."

Gu Zhen suddenly realized that Qin Qingrong hadn't worn the jade pendant for a long time, and thought in his heart that maybe Qin Qingrong lost it?

And when Gu Zhen asked about Qin Qingrong in the evening, Qin Qingrong remembered that the jade pendant had been smashed by him in anger and put away in the study of the Qin Mansion.

Qin Qingrong smiled awkwardly at Gu Zhen, from which Gu Zhen was sure that the jade pendant had indeed been lost by Qin Qingrong, and instead of asking any further questions, he returned an embarrassed smile.

The next day, Gu Zhen drew the appearance of the jade pendant in the book pavilion and asked his servants to take it to the shop to make a piece for him.

However, within a few days, Gu Zhen handed over the almost identical Feiyu to Qin Qingrong's hands. Qin Qingrong tried his best to praise him, but then hesitantly expressed that he wanted another similar one.

"Huh? Call me another one for General Ben? Good idea."

Gu Zhen was very relieved, and felt that it was a good start for Qin Qingrong to have such a heart for his sake.

"Cough..." Qin Qingrong lowered her head and replied softly: "No, I remember that Ru'an seemed to ask me for it before, and I promised him that I would find him someone similar."

Knowing that this touched Qin Qingrong's sadness, Gu Zhen pretended to be indifferent and nodded, "It's okay, the general will order someone to do it again."

So, after a few more days, Qin Qingrong got a round pendant with the same texture but no more exquisite workmanship than before.

At the same time, Gu Zhen also motioned Qin Qingrong to look at his waist, only to see a piece of jade that was exactly the same as Qin Qingrong suddenly appeared on Gu Zhen's waist. Gu Zhen said that this was their token of love.

Qin Qingrong compared the three jade pendants carefully, and found that Ye Ruan's piece was worse than theirs in any way.

Can't help feeling secretly, um, Gu Zhen is always unwilling to admit defeat, he has always been cunning and arrogant.

And since they decided to get married, the two of them took their birthday horoscopes and went to the Taoist temple to find a Taoist priest for a good and auspicious day.

Unexpectedly, the old Taoist squinted at the two written notes with the date of birth, and then refused: "These two people should not be married, and they are short of peach blossoms, and have no heirs to accompany them when they are old. Is it time to fool the old man?"

"Hey, Grand Master, you can't say that."

A priest suddenly walked in outside the gate of the Taoist temple, this priest Qin Qingrong looked familiar, when he suddenly remembered, he couldn't help getting up and smiling at the priest: "This Taoist priest, I remember you.

That day you made me drink a bowl of talisman water, saying that you wanted to change my life. "

"Hahaha, your memory is not bad."

The Taoist priest looked Qin Qingrong from side to side, and then asked in surprise, "Looking at you now, you don't look as stupid as before, what's the matter? Has the soul-leaving disease been cured?

You don't know, since you disappeared, the stinky doctor next door has been talking about you in my ear for a long time. "

Hearing this, Qin Qingrong turned around and looked at Gu Zhen with a smile, then nodded to the Taoist priest and said: "Please trouble the Taoist priest, I can remember everything in the past."

"and many more!"

The old Taoist stood up, picked up the fly whisk on the table, and knocked on the head of the Taoist priest, "Change someone's life?

Do you know that this fate can be changed by you?You're afraid that you're going to get into a catastrophe! "

The Taoist priest rubbed his head with dissatisfaction, then turned his face away and said angrily: "Master, you know, I have always been the most dissatisfied with the principles of heaven, my grandchildren, they are your love and I wish, so why bother to be killed because of a fate?" Beat mandarin ducks."

Gu and Qin, who originally came to the Taoist temple to seek good days and auspicious days, now admired the old Taoist disciples. They sighed and planned to leave silently, and then go to another house to try their luck.

When the two of them just left the house, they heard the Taoist leader shouting amidst the sound of being beaten: "I have matched the horoscopes of the two of you, and the first day of next month will be your auspicious day. Remember, you must believe in the Taoism." If so!"

In the end, the two who believed in the long words encountered a continuous rain on the day of their marriage.

That day, the bright red sedan chair swayed left and right in the drizzle, passing through the streets in the city, leaving the city gate and heading straight to a villa in the suburbs.

The wind blows the curtains of the sedan chairs, and the common people gather around the street thinking who is so happy, who can marry so beautifully when the world is a little more stable.

A little boy pointed at the sedan chair and shouted: "Mother, I saw it! There is a man sitting in the sedan chair."

When the woman heard the words, she hurriedly slapped the boy on the mouth and reprimanded him, "This is a happy day, so don't talk nonsense!"

Xiaotong was a little unconvinced, he pushed his mother away and followed the sedan chair to take another look, he was sure that the person sitting inside was a man.

"I didn't expect that in today's world, there are people who can be so rich."

There are two men standing under the corridor of the tavern. One of them is talking and shaking off the rainwater from the umbrella. His face is like a crown of jade and his eyes are like stars.

This person is Zhang Tingyu, and the one standing beside him is Wang Hao.

The two of them inquired for many years, and finally learned the specific location of the villa under Tingfeng Tower from Dongying people.They were very curious about what kind of person the leader of this rebel army who had fought side by side with them for many years would be.

So in the spring of the next year, the two traveled far away, intending to visit this villa in person.

"If Mr. Zhang is interested, then we might as well follow the team to congratulate him."

After several years of fighting, Wang Hao, who used to be idle and a playboy, now has a bit of smugness on his body, "Thinking about it, we are also officials ordered by the court, and it is impossible for ordinary people not to give this face ?”

Hearing this, Zhang Tingyu looked pensive.Suddenly, seeing the wind gently lifted the curtain of the sedan chair, he looked at the back of the person sitting in the sedan chair and couldn't help shaking his head, feeling very familiar.

At this time, Zhang Tingyu and Wang Hao caught up with the tail of the team and silently followed him along the way.

Of course, the whereabouts of the two of them naturally failed to escape the eyes of everyone in Tingfenglou. Buwen caught up with the deputy envoy at the head of the team and reminded: "Reporting to the deputy envoy, this subordinate noticed that someone was following us all the way." .”

"Let them follow."

The Deputy Envoy of Tingfenglou said calmly: "When we enter the villa later, we will tie them up and hand them over to the landlord."

If you don't hear the order, you should nod your head.

If you want to bring these two people to meet the landlord, I feel sympathy for these two people, I am afraid that the deputy envoy does not want to leave them a way of life, and they will die unexpectedly after the day of marriage.

After the team entered the entrance of the villa, Zhang Tingyu and Wang Hao were hesitating whether to go in together, when they saw a group of guards in black surrounding them.

The two panicked, and before they could take out their tokens, their eyes turned black and they were knocked unconscious on the ground.

Bu Wen reported this matter to Gu Zhen, Gu Zhen looked down at the two acquaintances lying on the ground and raised their eyebrows slightly, only to be surprised.

Pointing at Wang Hao, Gu Zhen looked at Buwen and smiled politely, "Buwen, that's General Wang, one of us."

It was his fault that such a thing happened. It was his fault that he didn't pay attention to building a friendly relationship between the killers in Tingfeng Tower and the soldiers in the camp.

Buwen looked at Gu Zhen, then at the person lying on the ground, first shocked and then a little ashamed.

He quickly unlocked Wang Hao's acupuncture points and then looked at Gu Zhen, wondering if Zhang Tingyu, who was lying next to Wang Hao, could also be unlocked.

"Forget it, let him wake up too."

With his hands on his back, Gu Zhen was full of doubts, "I don't know how these two people got here.

Seeing them come from thousands of miles to pay their respects, it would be no harm to treat them to a banquet.

No smell, the person in front of you is the current envoy of Yantie, Zhang Tingyu. "

On the ground, Zhang Tingyu and Wang Hao barely opened their eyes.

When they saw that the person standing in front of them was Gu Zhen, they were all startled. Wang Hao pinched his thigh fiercely and exclaimed after feeling the sharp pain, "General, so you are not dead!"

And Zhang Tingyu looked up and down Gu Zhen's wedding gown, the more he looked at it, the more uncomfortable he felt.

No need to guess, Zhang Tingyu knew that the other newcomer sitting in the new room at this time must be Qin Qingrong.

Over the years, he has thought about many hypotheses.

One hypothesis is that both Gu Zhen and Qin Qingrong have passed away, and he is separated from them; the other is that Qin Qingrong is dead, but Gu Zhen is still alive, dormant and waiting for the opportunity to return to Beijing for revenge...

But Zhang Tingyu never expected that for more than ten years, these two people have been cuddling together and living a life like a paradise.Today, he still appears at the wedding banquet of the two.

He looked up at Gu Zhen's current appearance very seriously, and he still couldn't successfully deceive himself for a long time.Because he knew that no matter how long it had passed, Gu Zhen had never changed.

Time has not worn away Gu Zhen's edges and corners, and Gu Zhen is still the heroic young man who dared to fight against fate in his heart.

And Zhang Tingyu has always loved this person deeply, dreaming that one day he will be able to touch the shadow of this boy.

But his obsession was eventually destroyed.

"General, Lord Zhang's temperament has changed a lot now!"

Wang Hao stood up from the ground, patted the ashes on his body, and praised Zhang Tingyu to Gu Zhen without hesitation, "He has solved the misunderstanding with his family, and he has done his best in the court these years.

If it weren't for his help to settle down most of the refugees in the Song Dynasty, we are afraid that our enemies will have to face the uprising of the people again before we finish fighting. "

Wang Hao didn't know much about the affairs between Gu Zhen and Zhang Tingyu. He strongly recommended Zhang Tingyu to Gu Zhen at this moment, mainly because of his sincere recognition of Zhang Tingyu's ability to handle affairs over the years.

Therefore, he wanted Gu Zhen to accept Zhang Tingyu as his party member.

Zhang Tingyu knew what Wang Hao was thinking, but since the dream in his heart was shattered, he didn't want to entangle with Gu and Qin anymore. He stood up and congratulated Gu Zhen calmly, "Zhang wishes General Gu We are in love with Master Qin, and we are on par with each other."

Hearing this, Wang Hao finally realized that today is the day of great joy for Gu Zhen and Qin Qingrong.

Thinking back then, when he was drunk and tried to misbehave Qin Qingrong, Wang Hao and Gu Zhen looked at each other and felt shuddering.

He scratched his head, with an embarrassing expression, and then congratulated him, "If Mr. Zhang doesn't remind me, my subordinates probably won't be able to react by now.

Congratulations to the general, congratulations to the general! "

However, thinking that he had risked his life to save Qin Qingrong's life, Wang Hao calmed down a little, then looked at Gu Zhen and Zhang Tingyu in a lively atmosphere and said, "If that's the case, then I won't talk about anything else today, but want to live a good life as a general and Qin Qingrong." Adults celebrate!

General, if you don't give us a bridal chamber tonight, I, Wang Hao, will be the first to refuse! "
