beautiful woman returns to dream

Chapter [-]

This "Ping Le Ju" is on a street in a border town, and it is a place where Zheng Xian rests here.The construction of the courtyard house is simple, and it does not look much different from ordinary people's courtyards. It is also a spacious courtyard, and the doors and courtyard walls are not too tall.However, there are many rooms, most of which are warehouse-like houses for storing goods.

When it was time for dinner, Yi'an was arranging her clothes in the room where she lived. Yufeng came over and invited her to have dinner with Zheng Xian in front.

Yi An heard that Zheng Xian invited her, so she agreed.She changed into another outfit, and when she came to Zheng Xian's room, she saw Zheng Xian sitting by the food table waiting for her.She stepped forward to greet her, and Zheng Xian let her take a seat with a smile on her face.

The maids of Pingleju had already set out exquisite bowls and plates, and when they saw her coming, they began to serve the dishes.Four or five plates of exquisite delicacies were quickly set up, all of which were fish, shrimp and seafood.

Yi'an has seldom eaten such a meal, and has never had a meal alone with Zheng Xian, so she feels a little nervous and cautious.She looked at Yufeng who was standing beside her, and wanted to ask Yufeng to sit down and have dinner with them, but she thought how she could talk nonsense because of her status, so she hesitated to say anything.Zheng Xian seemed to see what she meant, and said:

"Yufeng, sit down and eat together!"

Yufeng looked at Yi An:

"No, this is the dinner for two that Ms. Qin has been thinking about day and night. If I am here, won't I hinder the opportunity for those who are in love to express their hearts?!"

Yufeng suddenly said such blunt and straightforward words, as if she was talking about something on Yi'an's mind, and Yi'an's cheeks flushed instantly with embarrassment. In embarrassment, she raised her eyes and looked at Zheng Xian, seeing Zheng Xian looking at her Laugh without saying a word.

Yi'an turned her angry eyes to Yufeng who was at the side again, and said in her heart:

"When did I ever think about having dinner alone with Miss Zheng?"

But Yufeng didn't seem to care about Yi'an's gaze, smiled at her frivolously, and continued:

"Miss Qin, if you have anything to say to our master, now is a good time!"

"Yufeng, why are you making fun of Yi'an like this?" Zheng Xian stopped Yufeng.

"It's okay, what Sister Yufeng said is right." Yi'an changed her usual panic in front of Zheng Xian, and said calmly and calmly: "I always wanted to thank Miss Zheng for taking care of me and Xuelian for such a long time, and for helping me. I asked about my father's whereabouts, and I was grateful, but I had no chance to repay. Today, I just took advantage of this opportunity to have dinner with you to borrow flowers and present Buddha. Thank you, Miss Zheng, and Miss Yufeng for your concern and help. Let me respect Miss Zheng first!" Yi An raised the wine cup in front of Zheng Xian with both hands.

Zheng Xian took the wine cup with a smile and said:

"Yi'an, these are all easy to do, you don't have to worry about them."

Yi'an filled another wine cup, took the wine and turned to Yufeng and said:

"Sister Yufeng, I respect you too!"

"Miss Qin, the person you want to thank is not me. I haven't done anything for you!"

"Sister Yufeng, you helped me, I remember it in my heart, please!"

"Yufeng, don't refuse, Yi'an respects you, you should drink up!"

"Yes."

Only then did Yufeng reach out to take it, and after drinking it, she excused herself and went out.

Yi An and Zheng Xian sat facing each other, moving their chopsticks together.Yi'an was not angry or happy with Yufeng's words just now, but it made her calmer and clearer. She thought that sitting down to eat with Zheng Xian like this might be the only time, and she wanted to keep this beauty in her heart forever.

Because she could see more clearly, her heart became more calm. When Zheng Xian asked questions, she answered them calmly. They spent half an incense stick of time in a relaxed and happy manner.

At noon the next day, Yi'an was going out to the street, and Yufeng followed her out after hearing this.

Yi'an came to the street to relax, and because her father was at the border of Rongzhou, she couldn't stay any longer.

This Rongzhou is a remote location of the Tang Dynasty. On the border here, the Tang army and the Nanzhao army have confronted each other and clashed for several years.

The Nanzhao Kingdom is located in the southwest of the Tang Dynasty, and it has been subordinated to the Tang Dynasty for a long time. However, later conflicts arose between the two countries, coupled with the powerful Tubo’s continuous invasion of the Tang Dynasty and the coercion of Nanzhao, the two sides The relationship between countries is more complicated.

When the war between Datang and Nanzhao was tense, the market was often closed to prohibit mutual trade, and when the relationship between the two countries eased, the market was reopened to allow the exchange of goods and trade.

There are many refugees in this small town. There are many shops on both sides of the street, but the goods are very expensive, and there are few people doing business. Some shops have closed down.

"Here is not as lively and prosperous as Yizhou City." Yi An was thinking while walking and saw a man and a woman staggering towards the street in front of him.

The man was about thirty, wearing a tattered military uniform, walking on tiptoe with a long stick in his hand, one leg of his trousers was tied up high, it was obvious that he had lost one leg.The other old woman next to the man looked tired, with gray hair and a pale complexion, but she was tall and slightly fat, and she was wearing a military uniform that was not the same as the man's.

The two supported each other, and they both seemed to have a relaxed look on their faces. Although they were hurrying on the road, the drag on their bodies made it look like they were having a hard time walking. Yi'an couldn't bear it, walked over and said:

"Grandma, you are so tired that you are still on your way, your body will not be able to take it anymore, you should rest for a while before leaving!"

The man and the old woman looked at her gratefully, but they were indeed too tired. After hearing her words, they both stopped.

Yi'an saw a tea shed nearby and supported the old woman:

"Grandma, can you go over there and drink some water?"

The old woman looked at the man beside her and said:

"Feng Sanlang, let's listen to this girl and go drink some water?"

"Oh, good." Feng Sanlang readily agreed.

Sitting down on the bench in the tea shed, Yi An ordered two bowls of tea for them.

The old woman took two sips of water and said:

"Listen to the accent, girl, you are not from this place, are you?"

"I've only been here for three or four days. I'm from Jiangxia, Shandong."

"Oh? Old woman, my natal family also belongs to Jiang Xia, so you are here to visit relatives?"

"No, I'm here to look for my father. My father has been dispatched to the army in Rongzhou, and I'm going to look for him at the military camp here. Granny, where are you two going?"

"We're coming from the forward camp and we're going home!" said the old woman.

"Grandma, do you go to the battlefield at your age?"

"Cough! Although the battlefield is not on the battlefield, it is very close to the battlefield. A year ago, the government recruited troops to fight. My old man was sick and couldn't come. My son died in the battlefield two or three years ago. The grandson is still young and weak. The daughter-in-law has to take care of the grandson, there is no one in the family anymore, and my family is poor, and I can't afford to pay the government to exempt our family from military service. There is no way, I came to replace my old man, and cook for the soldiers in the rear. Now that my body couldn't bear it anymore, they let me go home. It happened that Feng Sanlang was injured in the front and wanted to go home. The two of us met on the road, so we walked together as companions, so we could have someone to take care of me. Girl, now The military situation on the border is tense and the wars are constantly going on, it is too dangerous for you to come here, besides where your father is exiled to the army, can you find out clearly?"

"I still don't know where my father is in the military camp. Someone will find out for me. If I can't find out, I will look for it everywhere."

"This is too difficult. What's your name? I came from the camp. Many of the soldiers who fought in the war knew me. When you go over there and tell them about me, they may help you. "

"My surname is Qin, and my name is Yi'an."

"Yi'an? Your surname is Qin?" the old woman asked in surprise.

"Yes, grandma."

"Then your father's name is Qin Dajuan?"

Yi'an said in surprise:

"How did you know? Are you...?"

"Yi'an, I'm your aunt! I met you several times when you were young, and now you've grown up so much!"

"Is it really my aunt?..." Yi An asked in surprise and joy at the same time.

"My nephew, I'm really your real aunt!" Aunt Qin said with tears in her eyes, "I didn't expect my poor brother, your father was exiled to fight here!"

"Auntie!" Yi'an quickly knelt down on the ground and kowtowed to her aunt.

"Get up, get up, stop kneeling!"

The aunt and nephew met unexpectedly here, and they couldn't help weeping with joy. The two happily talked about their family affection. At the end, the aunt said:

"Yi'an, come back with me, you are not safe here as a woman!"

"Auntie, I must find my father. He is always being exiled here. I worry about it day and night!"

"Cough! We poor people will have a better life that day? After a few days of stable life, we will suffer here again when we get old!" My aunt said plaintively, and suddenly she said: "Feng Sanlang, what's wrong with you, what are you doing?" Keep your head down and don't speak?"

After hearing this, Feng Sanlang raised his head that was about to reach under the table, looked at Yi'an and her aunt, and said hesitantly:

"Miss Yi'an, your father...your father is no longer here."

Yi An, who was happy to meet her aunt, was stunned by this strange man's words, and she looked at him in surprise.

"Feng Sanlang, what did you say?" Auntie asked with her old eyes wide open in surprise.

On Feng Sanlang's forehead, it was like a series of deep wrinkles that were squeezed together. He said:

"Sister-in-law Qin, after listening to your conversation just now, I realized that the person Miss Yi'an is looking for is Brother Qin. Since Brother Qin was dispatched here, he has been incorporated into our team. A month ago, we were escorting When the two carts of grain and grass passed a ravine, they were suddenly attacked by Nanzhao barbarians. At that time, half of our team fought against the enemy, and the other half continued to protect the grain and grass. However, there were more than 200 enemies who came. We were few in number, so we couldn't resist and had to retreat again and again. Soon, we were surrounded by them again. At a very critical moment, our reinforcements rushed to meet us from the front. But at that moment, I heard Brother Qin's scream , Looking back, I saw that he had been stabbed in the chest by a spear. At that time, I was also surrounded by several barbarians, and I was three feet away from him.

That time we were attacked, only a dozen of us survived, and my leg was cut off by the enemy's knife at that time.In the team, I got along very well with Brother Qin. He often mentioned his daughter and said that he left her in the inn in Chang'an.I was with Brother Qin for more than 50 days, and he told me that he was exiled here because he accidentally injured someone.Because he cried and talked about his experience from time to time, I remembered that he was from Jiangxia, and his daughter was named Yi'an.But I didn't expect to meet his daughter here today.
