[Traveling] Attacking Wife Trick
Chapter 14 Volume 3 · The Solution of the Totem
At the turn of spring and summer, there is a beautiful scenery on the outskirts of the city, with blooming branches and flowers, warblers singing and birds singing, and the river gurgling lightly on the pebbles.
Yingcheng and the others traveled about seven or eight miles, Ji Changxi was still a little hesitant, obviously he hadn't heard any news before, and now Prince Rui of Daliang just followed him to the northern border.
Although the man said with a serious face that the move was approved by the current emperor and Feng Jun, Ji Changxi was so surprised at what he thought. Yingcheng has always been loved by thousands of people, and this time the journey is long and full of many things Uncertain danger, His Majesty and the others are actually able to relax?
Ying Cheng watched the person beside him bewildered for a while and worried for a while, and found it interesting, "You just like to think too much, and you just cause trouble for yourself."
Riding his horse close to the other party, he said, "How could I have left the city without Father Jun's consent? It is estimated that the news of my going to the northern border reached Hulao Pass earlier than the two of us."
"You're used to taking it easy on weekdays, who knows if you will have a sudden whim and sneak out of the city without saying hello?" At the end, Ji Changxi shook her head and smiled, "You are always not reassuring."
Yingcheng wanted to pull his hand, but Helima walked a few steps in the opposite direction uncooperatively, his figure swayed, but thanks to Ji Changxi's quick reaction, he quickly reached out to support him.
The two horses were very close, and Ying Cheng's body was hugged by the other, and his cheeks almost touched his cheeks.
Ning Xiang was far away from them, so he could only turn his head to look at the scenery in a rather tangled state, muttering, "My lord really loves to act like a baby with my side—"
Fortunately, Yingcheng didn't hear this sentence, otherwise he would definitely teach this little guy a lesson.
Due to the tight schedule for this trip, they rushed almost non-stop. Ji Changxi was used to it, but he was afraid that Yingcheng would not be able to adapt.So when I was resting at the station at night, I specially prepared some cushions, which can more or less relieve the muscle pain caused by long-term riding.
Ying Cheng, who had just walked into the room with a damp body after taking a bath, saw Ji Changxi still sorting out things that he might use on the road.
Under the dim candle shadow, the serious look of the man seemed to be frozen, and the sharp and sharp side face lines were blurred into a thick and colorful scene.
Yingcheng looked at him for a long time, until Ji Changxi raised his eyes to look at himself, and asked, "Why are you so dazed there?"
"It's nothing." Yingcheng walked over and put the things in his hands on the table, and then pulled him to the side of the bed to sit down, "Just leave these things to Ning Xiang, the most important thing is that you have a good rest."
"Ning Xiang has never traveled such a long distance, and there are many things that I don't understand." Ji Changxi thought about it and said, "Some emergency medicines and cushions...and..."
"How can I be so delicate?" Ying Cheng interrupted him dumbfounded, and made a decisive decision, "Chang Xi, rest obediently."
After finishing speaking, they hugged the person and fell on the bed. They lay face to face and could feel each other's breathing.
Ji Changxi's dark eyes seemed to merge with the darkness of the night. He looked at Yingcheng, but he didn't say anything.
Yingcheng's heart beat a little faster when he watched him, and when he was about to talk about something casually, the other party asked in a low and slow voice, "My lord, the border is bitterly cold... Will you regret it?"
Ying Cheng didn't answer directly, but just moved closer to his lips, "Then do you want me to accompany you?"
"But you...follow me," Ji Changxi said, "Where is Mr. Wushuang?"
It turned out that he was concerned about this matter, Yingcheng suppressed a smile, and intertwined fingers with the other party, "Obviously he would be unhappy, but he still has to ask."
After being teased like this, Ji Changxi didn't want to talk to him anymore.
Ying Cheng stood up and said softly, "It's just the two of us at the moment, I'll be with you, isn't that good?" Don't worry about other people, just enjoy the present time.
Ji Changxi finally smiled lightly, looked at him from bottom to top, his eyes were like water, rippling, and he hooked Ying Cheng's black hair with his fingers, and then tugged gently.
Yingcheng leaned over to kiss him, the blue silk was like silk, spreading out in the darkness.
When the sky was slightly bright, several people got up, packed up and set off.
In order to reach northern Xinjiang as soon as possible, they have been working hard without delay.
It has been more than 20 days since I left the capital.From the south to the north, I have witnessed the changes in the scenery along the way. The closer to the border, the drier and colder the climate, the dead wood and loess are mottled, and the horseshoes gallop past.
One and a half months later, when Yingcheng came to Keping Town, it was supposed to be a season of scorching sun and summer flowers, but the place he was in was chaotic clouds, low dusk, and constant gusts of wind.
Unexpectedly, the temperature difference between the north and the south was so great. Although Yingcheng was tightly wrapped, he still felt a little cold.
Ning Xiang looked around and sighed, "Fortunately, we are dressed thickly. Look, my lord, it seems that there are not as many trees and flowers here as in the capital." He pointed to clusters of white flowers not far away, "I only saw this along the way, sir, is there a kind of flower blooming in the northern border?"
"That's not true, but this pansy flower is a characteristic of northern Xinjiang, undefeated in all seasons." Ji Changxi explained for them, "Northern Xinjiang believes that pansy flower symbolizes auspiciousness and well-being, and they hold a fire festival every year. Festival, in order to commemorate the most blooming day."
Ning Xiang immediately became interested, "Will the Fire Festival be very lively, compared to our winter banquet?"
"Each has its own merits," Ji Changxi said with a smile, "If you are interested, you can watch it in a few days. This time we happened to have a coincidence."
Ying Cheng tapped Ning Xiang's head with his fingers, "You are absolutely indispensable if there is any excitement." Saying this, he rode his horse and Ji Changxi walked slowly side by side.
Ning Xiang made a face at him.
"Is it cold?" Ji Changxi held Ying Cheng's hand, "We'll be there soon, my lord, please bear with me."
"Don't worry about me." Ying Cheng silently added in his heart: Ning Xiang is right, but luckily I wear thick clothes.
After walking for a while, they could already see the entrance of Keping Town, which is located in Liaozhou and one of the six border towns, closest to Hulao Pass.
Many people were entering and exiting the gate in an endless stream. Ning Xiang widened his eyes and said in surprise, "Why do they look different from us!"
Yingcheng's eyes turned slightly, looking at Ning Xiang helplessly, "I told you to read more books with the side gentleman, but you don't."
Ning Xiang wrinkled her bun face very aggrieved: Obviously, you don't like reading, my lord.
"The two prefectures of Liaoyan and Yanzhou are not only Han people, but also a large part of the Wuxi people. They are mainly distributed in the northern part of Wei and Liang. Therefore, since ancient times, there have been beauties in Liang and Wei. The beauties here refer to these Wuxi people. "Yingcheng said leisurely, "With the subsequent war migration and environmental changes, they gradually integrated into the Han people, but most of the children they gave birth to inherited the beauty of the Woxi people. You see, you idiot."
Compared with the Han people, the Wuxi people have more obvious outlines, high noses and deep eyes, and most of them are tall and slender.Their clothes are also different. Outside the knee-length short gown is a waist-length right lapel top, with colorful patterns embroidered on the cuffs and lapel, and tied with a silver waist chain, and a pair of round-toed leather boots on their feet.At the same time, they are also accustomed to wearing silver necklaces and silver bracelets. Their long hair is often tied with beads, and the ends of the strings are intertwined with blue silk, which is quite exotic.
Ning Xiang kept nodding, and then suddenly realized, "So that's the case! Your lord knows so much!"
Yingcheng was a little proud of being praised, but he had to work hard to maintain his good image.As if thinking of something, he turned his head and asked the person beside him who smiled and said nothing, "Chang Xi, do you also have the blood of the Wuxi tribe?"
Although Ji Changxi's appearance is not as deep as that of the Wuxi people, he is still well-defined, and he is much taller than the average weapon.
"Not at all." Ji Changxi interrupted his conjecture apologetically, "There has never been a single Wuxi from the Ji family."
"..." Yingcheng said, "Okay... I made a mistake."
Before he had time to answer, he heard someone shout at the gate, "Young general?"
The three of them looked forward together, and the voice immediately cheered and said, "It's really the Major General! The Major General is back!"
In the General Military Mansion of Keping, the man in the dark green robe looks two points like Ji Changxi, but with a little more slenderness and a more gentle face.
This is Ji Changxi's second elder brother, Ji Changling, the commander-in-chief of Keping Town.
When Ji Changling saw them, he was very happy and came to greet them in person, and even arranged a banquet with wine to welcome Yingcheng and Ji Changxi.
"I received news not long ago that the prince will come with Chang Xi," Ji Changling said to Ying Cheng while holding the wine glass, "this cup is to respect the prince's care for Chang Xi for more than a year." Said Finished, drank it all in one gulp.
He may lead troops all the year round, and his personality is more forthright.
While toasting, Yingcheng saw that Ji Changling had buckles on his wrists that soldiers would only wear when fighting.Thinking that he is worthy of being a person on the battlefield, he is used to carrying this thing even if he is not fighting.
Ying Cheng smiled and said, "President Ji is being polite. Chang Xi married into Prince Rui's residence, so he is my family, and so is the Ji family. Second brother, I still have to respect you for this cup."
Yingcheng's words were flattering and pleasant, and he calmly brought the Ji family closer to him.Although Ji Changling had heard a lot of rumors about this person in front of him before, but when he saw him today, he was very knowledgeable and polite. Seeing that his younger brother was always smiling, he let go of his heart a lot.
The atmosphere became more and more harmonious as the toasts were intertwined.
After Ji Changling, Xu Zhisheng, Keping's deputy commander, also stood up and toasted Yingcheng, one after another.
These people have been in the field for a long time, and it has become a habit to go straight, even when drinking.If he couldn't think of an excuse, he simply handed the wine to Ying Cheng.
Everyone was very hospitable and hospitable, and it was Chang Xi’s family and friends. Poor Ying Cheng didn’t even have the nerve to say the words of refusal, which led to the sad reminder that he was almost drunk on the spot. Fortunately, Ji Changxi relieved him .
When he walked back to the room with unsteady steps, Ying Cheng was so dizzy that he couldn't open his eyes, and his head was not clear, but he still struggled and asked, "Your father... didn't see you today... ?”
"He passed...in... a few days later."
Ji Changxi's voice was sometimes distant and sometimes near, and Yingcheng could only hear a few words intermittently. He felt that his strength was gradually losing, and he leaned against the person beside him, and said in a low voice, "Changxi... ..."
Pointing at the tip of the opponent's nose, Ji Changxi wanted to laugh seeing his defenseless posture like a child, but after a moment, he still sighed, "Thank you, Yingcheng."
The cold wind in northern Xinjiang intensified at night, and the pansy flowers were shivering.
The candle lamps in the glass cover in the yard were not affected, burning a faint light.
The knock on the door was very clear at this moment, and soon the door was opened from the inside.
"Second Brother," Ji Changxi looked at the person in front of him and said, "I kept you waiting."
"Come in first." After closing the door again, Ji Changling sat down next to his younger brother and poured him another cup of hot tea, "I haven't been back for a long time, how do you still get used to it?"
"After staying for so many years, how can you not get used to it?" Ji Changxi felt that the other party must have more to say tonight, so he took the initiative to ask, "Is there any news from Hulao Pass?"
To his surprise, Ji Changling shook his head, "It's not Hu prison pass, but Prince Rui."
"Prince Rui?" Ji Changxi was stunned, "What does it have to do with him?"
"Chang Xi, I want you to answer honestly." The smile on the banquet faded away, and Ji Changling's sternness was undisguised, "Why did he come to the northern border? Is it His Majesty's intention or the Crown Prince's intention?"
"You doubt him?" Ji Changxi couldn't believe his question, and then said firmly, "He has nothing to do with those two people."
"Do you want to tell me that he came here specially for you?" Ji Changling's lips hooked slightly, and suddenly he grabbed Ji Changxi's wrist like lightning, then pushed his sleeve up, and said coldly, " You have never had sex at all. Chang Xi, you are lying to me. "
Unable to refute for a while, Ji Changxi could only remain silent.
As weapons, they were born with the black bird totem on their right wrists.The whole body of the black bird totem is jet black, but—its color is not always the same.
Once the utensil meets the wedge, the color of the totem will instantly turn red, declaring that it is owned by others.
However, the unchanged totem on Ji Changxi's wrist easily betrayed him.
After a long time, Ji Changling finally spoke, but his voice was suppressed, "Chang Xi, is your life not good now?"
"No, second brother," he lowered his eyes and then raised them again, his eyes were firm, "I'm doing well." Ji Changxi held the other's hand and said slowly, "I'll use myself as a guarantee." , Prince Rui, he will not endanger the Ji family."
"In that case, I also... have nothing to say."
"Second brother..." Ji Changxi looked at him, his eyes slowly overflowing with sorrow, "The situation is unstable now, if Liang Chu goes to war... I am really worried about you."
"It's okay." Giving a hug to the third younger brother who always thought of himself, Ji Changling said, "No matter what, the Ji family can't be destroyed by me."
The buckle on his wrist was undone bit by bit, he was not married, but under the moonlight, the black bird totem was impressively red.
The wind outside the window was still "squeaking", but the room was completely silent.
Three years ago, Ji Changling led his troops to attack Hulao Pass because of the barbarian riots on the border.
This was just a small collision of force, but no one expected that there was another conspiracy hidden under the surface - it turned out that the state of Chu had already designed to lure the enemy deep.
In that battle, Ji Changling was injured and disappeared for nearly a month.After coming back, the totem on the wrist has not returned to its original color.
Apart from Old General Ji, the only person who knew about this matter was Ji Changxi.But none of them knew what Ji Changling went through when he disappeared.
Old General Ji was furious about this, he tried his best to find out who did it, and asked Ji Changling more than once, but the other party was silent.
Two years later, Ying Congyu proposed marriage to the Ji family, and the old general Ji had no choice but to marry Ji Changxi.
It wasn't until the day they got married that Ji Changxi knew all the truth.
The name that was quietly buried by his second brother is a taboo, a person that cannot be easily mentioned.
It's not that Ji Changling doesn't want to say it, but that he can't.
In the battle between Liang and Chu, no matter who wins or loses, only he will be covered with injuries.
The author has something to say:
I heard it's a good idea to be cute -v-
But I always forget, and today I finally remember!
Why don't I... be cute?
[Serious face] Get the hell out of here~, those who leave comments in your favorites, please don’t throw yourself into my arms carelessly -v-
