Lintai Storm Record
Work related (20)
The quilt was very damp to the touch, and a corner of the house was still leaking, so I just took the toilet to it.
This is the worst place I've ever lived in in my life. It's even worse than the posthouse I stayed on Rongzhou Road.
The wind was blowing into the house from all directions. Even if the doors and windows were closed, it was unknown where the roof was broken and where the windows were not glued properly.
Lu Guan came in from the house, and there was another gust of cold wind. He stood by the bed, undressed and got up.
Song Qianzhi was wrapped in a quilt, with only one head exposed, lying on the bed, staring at him brightly. At this moment, he saw Lu Guan take off his martial robe, revealing a broad and strong back. Looking up through the muscles, the head is drooping, and the neck is very red.
In the end, Lu Guan took off only a pair of thin underpants, turned around hesitantly, saw that Song Qianzhi was wrapped up like a caterpillar, and couldn't help laughing.
Song Qianzhi looked at the soft smile on his face fascinatedly, and there was heat in his chest, he couldn't feel the cold, so he lifted the quilt, patted the bed, and signaled Lu Guan to come up.
Lu Guan's bare chest was very warm.
Song Qianzhi hugged him and didn't want to let go, he put his cold hands and feet on Lu Guan's body, Lu Guan put his arms around his shoulders, and heard Song Qianzhi whisper: "Aren't you afraid of the cold?"
"Well, I have never been afraid since I was a child. Counting nine cold days is just a cloth robe."
The sound of raindrops on the roof was very soft, and the windows were knocked by the wind from time to time.
Song Qianzhi rested his head on Lu Guan's shoulder, as if he had fallen asleep.
Lu Guan stepped back a little, looked at Song Qianzhi's face, he was thinking of something, his face turned red, even his neck was red.
Song Qianzhi suddenly opened his eyes.
Lu Guan was caught off guard, his eyes were facing each other, and he lowered his head to find Song Qianzhi's lips out of breath.
Simply Song Qianzhi moved his body, stepped back, and at the same time hugged Lu Guan's neck with both hands. When he kissed him, he opened his lips naturally, and when his warm and moist tongues were intertwined, there was an unspeakable The shuddering spread from the scalp to the neck, and Song Qianzhi felt indescribably comfortable with the numbness of the tendons and bones.
After finally separating, Lu Guan kissed Song Qianzhi's forehead and asked in a low voice, "Have you ever kissed someone else?"
Song Qianzhi chuckled: "Have you wanted to ask for a long time?"
Lu Guan really wanted to ask for a long time, but at this moment his face became uncomfortable, and he said with a stiff face: "It's just a casual question, it's fine if you don't say anything."
"I've kissed you before, but I haven't kissed you like this before." Song Qianzhi's face was hot, and he fumbled in Lu Guan's arms, sometimes hugging his waist. There is an unspeakable sense of steadfastness and peace of mind, and I can't help but always want to wrap around him.
The quilt of the county government office was damp, and it was raining outside, so it was cold everywhere except this warm quilt.
The two are close to each other, and they have indescribable interest.
"What about you?" Although I already knew that you were a virgin, I still asked.Song Qianzhi thought to himself, lowered his head, and put his face on Lu Guan's chest. Lu Guan's heartbeat sounded in his ears, one after another calm and powerful. It wet Lu Guan's heart.
Lu Guan: "..."
Song Qianzhi licked his lips: "Ask you." He rubbed Lu Guan's right chest with his hands, and squeezed one leg into Lu Guan's legs, so much warmer.
"It was the first time in the government office of Rongzhou that day. It was the second time on the city wall today." Lu Guan helplessly grabbed Song Qianzhi's troublesome hand, and said in a hoarse voice: "Don't mess around."
The two were very close, and Song Qianzhi's whole body was stuck in his arms, so he knew that Lu Guan was too hard to bear.
"Kiss again." Song Qianzhi gently pulled out his hand and hugged Lu Guan's neck, staring at Lu Guan with bright eyes, "Now, it's the third time."
Lu Guan took a rough breath, lowered down and kissed him cooperatively.After kissing again and again, Song Qianzhi didn't stop for a while, and wanted to kiss again, his face was drooling, and his well-dressed unlined clothes became messy.
Lu Guan had no choice but to get up and look for water, wrung out the handkerchief and came over to wipe Song Qianzhi's face, wiped himself, wiped off his sweaty chest, went out and splashed cold water, stood in the cold wind for a while before entering the house .
When he hugged someone again, Song Qianzhi shivered from the cold, and touched Lu Guan's body dissatisfied, and rubbed against Lu Guan's body back and forth.
Lu Guan couldn't bear it anymore, he grabbed Song Qianzhi's waist, made him stick to his body, lowered his head and bit his neck gently.
Song Qianzhi trembled all over, and his whole body softened, only feeling that fiery tongue swimming on his neck.
"Okay, I have something to do tomorrow, go to bed." Lu Guan raised his head, looked at Song Qian for a while, couldn't help but lowered down and kissed his eyelids, and breathed a sigh of relief, "Your eyes are so beautiful."
Song Qianzhi snorted proudly.
"You're lucky, my mother is a famous beauty, I look more like my mother."
Lu Guan remembered and asked: "The Queen Mother Zhou is your real aunt, and your mother is the real sister of the Queen Mother Zhou?"
"Well, she's sick, finish her errands quickly, and I want to go back to Beijing early. I'm always worried that she's at home."
"Why hasn't Zhou Xian's carrier pigeon come back yet?" Song Qianzhi changed his posture, pinching Lu Guan's palm with one hand. He still wanted to do something, but he already felt close enough, and he was in a daze to do anything else. I don't understand, I have to go back to Beijing to find someone to ask for advice.
"I don't know, maybe Yao Jiqu failed to forward the letter to Qin Yuning for a while, or Qin Yuning hasn't replied yet. You have to wait for Qin Yuning to write a reply before sending it back."
Song Qianzhi was quiet for a moment, then remembered something again, put his hand on Lu Guan's chest, raised his head and asked him: "How do you think the front line is going?"
Lu Guan was already sleepy, and when he heard Song Qianzhi's voice, he woke up suddenly, thought for a while, and then said: "Fengping Gorge should not be broken yet, Fengping Gorge is less than a hundred miles away from here, if it breaks, there will naturally be Wounded soldiers and refugees poured in, but the situation is still calm."
"I hope God bless me." Song Qianzhi couldn't help but find it funny when he said the same thing, "Lu Guan, do you know Fu Mingmao?"
"what happened?"
"I just want to know, if he and Fu Mingshao really meet, who will win."
The rain was getting louder and louder.
Song Qianzhi's forehead was a little cold, and Lu Guan also noticed it, and turned over with Song Qianzhi in his arms, pressing him under his body.
Song Qianzhi breathed heavily and said, "No, the whole bed will be wet later."
"To my room?"
Approaching the third watch, Lu Guan poked his head out from the room secretly, his shoulders and back were naked, he looked left and right to see if there was no one there, and went back to carry Song Qianzhi and others out of the room with the quilt in his arms.
Zhou Xian, who got up to relieve himself, saw a strong man coming out of Song Qianzhi's room in a daze, with someone in his arms, and he woke up suddenly.
Zhou Xian stood there in a daze, sweeping back and forth between Lu Guan and Song Qianzhi, swallowed hard, stepped into his room with staring eyes, and slammed the door shut.
Song Qianzhi: "..."
Lu Guan: "..."
The two of them had just laid down on Lu Guan's bed for less than half an hour, and the quilt was still warm, and the raindrops dripped onto Lu Guan's face.
Before Song Qianzhi could speak, he was taken aback for a moment, then burst out laughing, rolling around on the bed.
Lu Guan was speechless, and said to Song Qianzhi: "Wait."
Song Qianzhi lay down on the bed, and after a while, he heard movement in the room, and Lu Guan lowered his voice: "Is the water still running?"
Not as good as Song Qianzhi's answer.
A strange voice from the next door said, "Your Excellency, use your strength."
"……………………………..." Song Qianzhi heard the sound of a tile breaking, and there was a lot of movement, and suddenly fell silent.
After a while, the door opened, Lu Guan came in, got into the bed and hugged Song Qianzhi.
"Did you fix the roof? Did you fix it?" Song Qianzhi asked curiously.
Lu Guan: "Well, it won't leak to the bed for a while, what did you say before?"
Song Qianzhi yawned: "Forget it, let's talk about it tomorrow." He almost couldn't open his eyes, he slipped into Lu Guan's arms, and fell asleep peacefully holding the coal tightly.
Lu Guan hugged Song Qianzhi into his arms, looked down at his handsome eyebrows, sniffed his cheeks, finally kissed Song Qianzhi's eyebrows lightly, and closed his eyes to sleep.
☆、The Difficulty of Prosperity ([-])
Waking up in the morning, Song Qianzhi hung on Lu Guan like an octopus, and when he moved, he heard Lu Guan's deep voice asking, "Are you awake?"
Song Qianzhi murmured, hugged Lu Guan tighter, and muttered: "I'm not awake, I won't get up."
Having said that, Song Qianzhi couldn't help laughing, opened his eyes and rolled over to Lu Guan, hugged him and kissed him for a while, then struggled to get up, the quilt was really warm, and the moment he got off the ground, Song Qianzhi felt every breath in his body. Every pore was frozen, and he breathed heavily.
Lu Guan patted his face lightly: "So cold?"
Song Qianzhi pressed his hands that were as frozen as ice cubes to Lu Guan's chest, and Lu Guan let him make trouble, took the robe and put it on with him.
When I ran into Zhou Xian when I went out, he waved his hands listlessly and said, "Morning."
Song Qianzhi saw him sucking his snot, so he opened his mouth and asked, "Have you caught a cold? Is there a leak in your room?"
Zhou Xian wanted to say something, but he glanced at Lu Guan, shut his mouth, smiled and made a gesture, asking Song Qianzhi and Lu Guan to go first.
The more Song Qianzhi thought about it, the more strange he became. He choked on the unpalatable wotou and stretched out his neck.Lu Guan gave him a smooth hand, and let him take a sip of porridge first.
The hot porridge flowed down his throat, and Song Qianzhi managed to catch his breath. He turned his head to look at Zhou Xian who was serving the meal, and asked Lu Guan in a low voice, "What did you do to him last night?"
Song Qianzhi remembered that he heard a lot of movement on the roof last night, it didn't look like repairing the roof, it seemed like something was smashed.
"I lifted his roof off." Lu Guandan said.
Song Qianzhi wanted to laugh, but he held back after thinking about it, and seeing Zhou Xian sitting down with his nose dragging his nose, his head tucked into his fur collar, he couldn't help but burst out laughing.
Zhou Xian said angrily: "Is it okay for me to make a joke casually?"
Lu Guan ignored him.
Song Qianzhi thought that Zhou Xian had made do with the cold wind and rain all night, laughing secretly while eating.
Zhou Xian had nothing to do with him, he couldn't scold him, he couldn't beat him, and he couldn't beat him.
After the meal, Song Qianzhi asked Xu Dingyuan to send him two bookkeepers to lead the way to the county town to visit the residents who were seriously affected by the earthquake.
Hongping County was hit by an earthquake in mid-October, and nearly half of the houses collapsed. The casualties were not the most serious, and many cattle and horses died.For poor and small households, the death of a farm ox almost cut off their livelihood.Fortunately, Mengzhou has always been a place where there is no shortage of food, and the state government can handle it, not like Rongzhou.
There are nine grades of soil, and Rongzhou is in the middle and lower. It is not too bad, but it is not good either. It is almost all dependent on the sky.
The victims received the money, and some of them packed up sweet potatoes and sweet potatoes at home as New Year gifts to Song Qianzhi. Looking at those eyes that were still sincere after suffering, Song Qianzhi couldn't say no if he refused, so he had to let the accompanying men Accept it, take it back and leave it to Xu Dingyuan.
In two months, the reconstruction of the house has basically been completed, and the grain distributed by Mengzhou has also been delivered to every household.Song Qianzhi thought while walking, Xu Dingyuan, the county magistrate did a good job, but his personality was one of surprise.But people are like this, some people are silent, some people are bluffing, only the heart can be divided into good and dark, and the character is not important.
By noon, all the households that should be visited had been visited, and Song Qian's feet had softened, leaving the last family, Lu Guan said that he would carry him.
Song Qianzhi blushed, unpreparedly watching Lu Guan bowing sideways in front of him.
"No, no, let's go!"
The men were all laughing.
Zhou Xian said even more eccentrically: "Lord Lu is willing to be a horse for Master Song, but Master Song doesn't show face. Tsk, my feet are really sore and painful from walking. It's better for Master Lu to carry me."
Song Qianzhi took two steps ahead.
From behind, Lu Guan turned his head and waved to Zhou Xian: "Come on, carry you."
Zhou Xian walked over vigilantly, and threw himself on Lu Guan's back. Lu Guan grabbed his waist with his backhand, and before Zhou Xian could stand still, he directly moved him to the ground.
Song Qianzhi was hilarious, and the subordinates who followed were laughing, Zhou Xian got up from the ground with a blushing face, spit out the dust in his mouth twice, speechless, and could only admit that he was unlucky.
Lu Guan came up from behind and took Song Qianzhi's hand. Now no one dared to make a fuss, only saw two imperial envoy chiefs biting their ears in front. Pinching his ears, he kept turning his head and staring at Master Song's side face endlessly.
All the subordinates felt that their eyes hurt and they were about to go blind.
After lunch, Xu Dingyuan returned to the county office with a disheveled face, and listened to Song Qianzhi's order, nodding his head and moaning: "That's what you said, Mr. Song, is there no certainty about the front line?"
Just at this moment, a black spot rushed into the hall from far to near, and fell beside Zhou Xian's martial boots, making a cooing sound.
"This is?" Xu Dingyuan stared dumbfounded as Zhou Xian grabbed the pigeon and took down the letter.
Zhou Xian unfolded the letter and glanced at it. It was two sheets of letter paper rolled together. He took one of them and gave Qin Yuning's reply letter to Song Qianzhi.
One of Song Qian's expressions changed immediately.
Lu Guan: "What's the matter?" Song Qianzhi showed him the letter, Lu Guan's lips were tightly closed, and after a while, he made a decisive decision and said to Xu Dingyuan, "Go up to the tower immediately, don't repair the unrepaired areas, and put the key points in the gate. The horse trap was dug immediately, and all the laborers in the county were mobilized to dig. The women were gathered together, the fire oil tanks were prepared, and the rolling stones were pulled to the tower with a cart, and the gaps in the city wall were set up with horse ropes and shelters for archers. "
Xu Dingyuan's face turned pale when he heard it, and he immediately understood that the Fengping Gorge had been broken, and the Heidi army would probably arrive here before dark.
Xu Dingyuan asked Song Qianzhi with trembling voice: "Young Master?"
"According to Lord Lu's instructions, first gather the elderly and children and evacuate westward. After an hour, the women will also evacuate, and some young and middle-aged men will be assigned to escort, and the rest will stay in the city."
"This... how to divide..." Xu Dingyuan was sweating anxiously, "Human life is not distinguished, and as a parent official, I really can't make a choice."
"The only son is single-passed to escort the old, the weak, women and children. If there are multiple sons in the family, it is up to the decision."
Xu Dingyuan heaved a sigh of relief, shook his head and said, "This is the only way to do it. Will the adults leave the city immediately?"
Song Qianzhi glanced at Lu Guan, and read Lu Guan's meaning from his deep eyes, whatever.Song Qianzhi quickly made a decision and turned to Zhou Xian: "Zhou Xian, take the late emperor's sword and leave, go west to report the news, first go to the capital of Mengzhou, and then go west to report the matter, don't stay longer, go directly to Beijing... "
Thinking of one thing, Song Qianzhi frowned slightly. Since Qin Yuning received the military report of Fengpingxia's collapse, Fu Mingshao's court would definitely retreat westward.Pigeons can only go back and forth between Qilinwei in Beijing and Zhou Xianfang, that is, Hongping County, and Qin Yuning can only receive the news so quickly by relying on [-] miles to rush.When the Ministry of War gets the news, it will immediately make a decision to convey to the state capitals. Qin Yuning's letter was written in a scribbled handwriting, obviously written in a hurry.
"No, it's too late. The imperial court should respond. You go north and report to General Bai Guyou's army, and let them go south to intercept."
"Your Majesty has no order for the Northern Army?" Zhou Xian asked.
"Qin Yuning hadn't replied yet, and there was already a quarrel in the court. You go with the commanding sword of the late emperor. It's up to Bai Guyou to make up his own mind." Song Qianzhi frowned deeply, "Once The imperial court has an order for the Zhenbei Army, this situation can be resolved. If the emperor does not issue an order..."
Song Qianzhi didn't say the rest.
Xu Dingyuan immediately took people out to deploy, and Zhou Xian led the order to leave Hongping County Yamen with a sword on his back.
The wet and cold heavy rain last night turned out to be a sunny day today. Song Qianzhi went out, and the warm winter sun shone on his body, but he still felt very cold.
Someone took his hand, and Song Qianzhi seemed to have a floating board in his empty heart. He turned his head to look at Lu Guan, and Lu Guan's hand held his hand tightly, returning to Song Qianzhi's strength bit by bit. On his body, the sunlight also merged into a warm current, which permeated his whole body from his standing feet.
"I want you to protect Zhou Xian. With his own strength, if the Sword of Heaven falls into the hands of Fu Mingmao." Then we can only finish the game together.Fu Mingmao was in the dark, and it was impossible to estimate how many masters followed him.I can only gamble that Zhou Xian can move the northern army smoothly and let Bai Guyou go south.
Lu Guan stared at Song Qianzhi seriously, and said: "That night when you went back to Rongzhou, you were right behind me. I suddenly had a feeling that you were there. When I turned around, you were really standing inside the door. I... …I didn’t understand it at the time, but the words you said to me later made me even more confused. Until yesterday, on the city wall, overlooking the rivers and rivers, the heavens, the earth, the mountains, the rivers and the people are all alive, and with the strength of one person, I want to protect the world , It’s like an idiot saying that Mengtang’s arm is a car. But I can stand in front of you, if I can’t protect you, like the night I was assassinated when I first arrived in Rongzhou, I’m willing to die in front of you.”
"Since you are willing to come back for me, no matter what, I will not leave you." Lu Guan said hoarsely, staring at Song Qianzhi hesitantly for a moment, as if he was afraid to look at him, his eyes flickered, but he couldn't move away.
Song Qian's heart trembled violently, and he suddenly calmed down, giving birth to tranquility in his heart, just like listening to the snow in winter, looking at the moon in autumn, and singing the rooster at five o'clock.In the silence, only the person in front of me is real.He looked at Lu Guan quietly, not knowing whether this moment was long or short, he squeezed his hand tightly.
"If you want to die, die together." After a pause, Song Qianzhi smiled, "But it's better not to die, my mother is still in Beijing."
Lu Guan: "...forgot."
"Also, Lu Shunqin." Song Qianzhi stretched out his hand to touch Lu Guan's face, and slid his finger behind his ear along his handsome eyebrows, "Your life is mine, even if the emperor wants to take it, it's up to me to answer." I don't agree." Song Qianzhi didn't take Fu Mingshao seriously at first, in his eyes, his cousin Fu Minghong should be the emperor most, and if his cousin is dead, it doesn't matter whoever is the emperor.At this time, the sky is high and the emperor is far away, and it is a big deal to take Lu Guan to run away. Of course, he has to pick up his mother first.
Lu Guan couldn't help but leaned towards Song Qianzhi, wanting to kiss him, but Song Qianzhi backed away, just as Lu Guan was puzzled, Song Qianzhi kissed him again with a smile.
The kiss made their lips hurt, and the two separated. Song Qianzhi licked his lips, and said dissatisfiedly: "You can't let me kiss you. It's so good to have teeth touching each other?" Damn, the teeth hurt when they collided. Not to mention, my mind is still buzzing, and if I don't pay attention, I will bite my tongue.
Lu Guan hugged Song Qianzhi's waist domineeringly, lowered his head to his forehead, and kissed the bridge of his nose.
"You won't let me in."
Hearing these words in Fengyue veteran Song Qianzhi's ears, they naturally had another meaning, and scolded: "You should let me in!"
Lu Guan smiled, kissed Song Qianzhi's back and buttocks along Song Qianzhi's waist.
In broad daylight, even Song Qianzhi felt a little embarrassed. Although there was no one around, Lu Guan was too bold.Afraid of being bumped into by his subordinates, Song Qianzhi thought again that Hei Di's army would arrive in Hongping County in a few hours, and they were still hugging and kissing here, and even boasted that it was the best. Got Lao Gao, and also noticed Lu Guan's reaction, it was embarrassing, I knew that I gritted my teeth last night and got things done, but I didn't realize that this evil fire was untouched by anyone, and I couldn't hold it when I thought about it. Qianzhi had no choice but to push Lu Guan away, cursing and looking for Xu Dingyuan outside the Yamen.
In the evening, under Xu Dingyuan's personal supervision, horse pits were dug for all the pass gaps in Hongping County, and defenses were set up near the city walls that had not been repaired in time.
Nearly half of the residents had already evacuated. The old, weak, women and children had all left the city two hours ago, escorted by 48 elite soldiers and [-] civilian experts, and fled westward for their lives.
Before dinner, Xu Dingyuan went down to the county government office in disgrace, Song Qianzhi and Lu Guan came back after a while, and the three adults had dinner at the same table.
Xu Dingyuan glanced at the four dishes and one soup on the table, put down the chopsticks with a snap, called the servant, and ordered him to take out the good wine buried in the Yamen.
Xu Dingyuan said: "My lords, if you are lucky today and have a false alarm, you should celebrate it with wine. If you recite your words, you should be brave." He smiled wryly, "I came from a humble job and a poor family for ten years. I am a scholar with no hands. The power to restrain the chicken is useless right now. These wines were brought by an old friend the year before last, and they brought good wines. I have never had a chance to drink them. Eating this bowl at the table with the imperial envoys is already a lowly job. I hope the adults Do not dislike."
After speaking, Xu Dingyuan straightened his neck and drank the whole cup of wine in one gulp, a blush appeared on his dark face.
"Being on the battlefield together, we are brothers." Song Qianzhi also drank in one gulp.
Xu Dingyuan was greatly encouraged, his neck was red, and he was panting heavily, only to see Lu Guan also picked up the wine cup and drank it all without saying a word.
Xu Dingyuan wanted to pour wine for Song Qianzhi and Lu Guan, but was held down by Song Qianzhi.
"Master Xu, eat vegetables."
When Song Qianzhi said this with a smile, Xu Dingyuan was taken aback for a moment, put down the wine jar, and trembled slightly with the hands holding up the chopsticks.
"How much wine is left?" Lu Guan asked.
When Song Qianzhi heard this, his heart moved.
Xu Dingyuan replied: "There are twelve altars in total, and one altar was opened here. Last year, a friend came to the county government to accompany the humble official to celebrate the New Year. He drank one altar, and there should be ten more altars."
The boy said beside him, "It's ten altars. I just counted the small ones."
"Get up." Lu Guan said.
"Master Song won't allow you to drink, is this?" Xu Dingyuan was at a loss.
Song Qianzhi smiled and didn't answer, just focused on eating the food, and told Xu Dingyuan to eat too, and told them not to eat too much, Xu Dingyuan ate a few chopsticks with a sad face, and asked Song Qianzhi if an official held a banquet in Beijing, would it be right? There are singers present to serve.
"That's what happened."
Xu Dingyuan called the cook out, and said to Song Qianzhi: "This cook in the humble mansion also has a good singing voice, and she has recited a lot of poems. Ask her to sing a few songs." Then he said to the cook, "Sing Come on, you can sing whatever you want."
The cook was wiping her red hands from the cold on the apron. Her hair was disheveled and hanging on her forehead, her face was thinly covered with greasy sweat, and her skin was fair. Standing sideways, her hands never let go of the apron.After thinking for a moment, the cook opened her mouth and began to sing.
First, there is a poem that children can memorize fluently. Her voice is sweet and soft, which has a soothing effect. She sings leisurely: "The sound of firecrackers kills the year, and the spring breeze brings warmth into Tusu. Thousands of households celebrate the day, and the total Replace the old talisman with the new peach."
Xu Dingyuan laughed, the corners of his eyes were red.
"I forgot that tomorrow is New Year's Eve." Xu Dingyuan sighed.
Song Qianzhi looked at Lu Guan, and thought that Lu Guan was alone, and it must be deserted during the Chinese New Year. Now in Beijing, he probably rented a down-and-out house, and was alone on New Year's Eve.I also thought that if I were at home, I would have pasted up the Spring Festival couplets rewarded in the palace, replaced the peach charms on the door, and sent out the reward letters to the villages, and piled up walnuts, sesame seeds, orange cakes, and peanuts in the yard like hills. The other things have to be smashed and boiled with sugar, and the whole Hou Mansion will eat this bowl of glutinous rice balls in the morning of the first day of the new year.
I was mostly idle in the house, warming up the fire and reading, only waiting to go out to play on New Year's Eve, and made an appointment with a few young masters from the Ministry of Finance and the Ministry of Punishment to go to Xiangguo Temple to burn incense and see beauties.
In a trance, the cook lady sang the song three times and changed the key, the woman's gentle and round voice cooled down.
Just listen to her singing: "Liu Ma has just crossed the white jade saddle, and the moonlight is cold on the battlefield after the battle."
The cook was singing, and Xu Dingyuan filled a glass of wine and drank it down.
"The sound of the iron drum at the top of the city is still shaking..."
"Master Xu, I respect you." Song Qianzhi raised the wine cup, and Lu Guan also drank the wine with Xu Dingyuan.
"The golden knife and blood in the box are not dry." The cook's voice turned, the tune rose, and the libretto was repeated.
It's all a song, and I'll pay my respects.
"Wait, Master Xu, all the women in the city have retreated..." What happened to the cook in front of me?Song Qianzhi reacted suddenly and was a little stunned.
Before Xu Dingyuan could speak, the cook bowed again: "Qiuxi is very grateful for being able to present a song for the adults. You don't have to ask, Mr. Song, my family went to Beijing with Mr. Xu for the exam. When I was appointed, Mr. Xu took my family with me Now the slave family will stay with Mr. Xu in Hongping County."
Song Qianzhi looked at these two people, then looked at Lu Guan, heaved a sigh of relief, drank the third cup of wine, and respected the woman who had betrothed Xu Dingyuan.
After drinking that night, there was still no news of the enemy's attack. Xu Dingyuan followed Lu Guan's instructions and took the remaining ten altars of wine to the tower, mixed water with the soldiers, and stayed in the army to sit in the town, let Song Qianzhi and Lu Guan first for rest.
Song Qianzhi didn't want to go to sleep at first, but after thinking about it, he hasn't called yet, so it's better to nourish his spirit.Anyone who can sleep at this time should be snickering, so they simply went back to the room and let Lu Guan hug him to sleep, because after drinking, he fell asleep in a dark and sweet sleep.
It felt like a long sleep.
In the dream, Song Qianzhi suddenly twitched and woke up.
Lu Guansheng got closer: "It's not yet dawn, and the fight hasn't started yet."
Song Qianzhi sat up, heard Lu Guan asking if he was still asleep, nodded in a daze, and stretched out his hand to signal Lu Guan to dress him.
"Haven't come yet, I'm afraid it's a detour." Lu Guan tied Song Qianzhi's belt and whispered, "Sleep for a while?"
The lingering uneasiness before waking up made Song Qianzhi's heart skip a beat, and he couldn't remember what he had dreamed with all his strength. There was a heavy stone on his heart, and his eyelids couldn't stop twitching.Song Qianzhi pressed his eye sockets hard, rubbed them, and was about to say something.
There was a commotion outside from far to near, sweeping through the entire county office like sparks in an instant.
Song Qianzhi and Lu Guan glanced at each other hurriedly, when the door was opened, three balls of flames fell from the sky, one fell into the water tank and emitted black smoke, and the other landed on the stone slab and burned itself.
Lu Guan dragged Song Qianzhi around his waist back into the room, took the sword, and put the bow on his back, while Song Qianzhi put on an arrow basket, held the bow in one hand, and held a sword in his waist.
Lu Guan quickly put on the armor for him, and Song Qianzhi hurriedly grabbed the man and asked Lu Guan to put it on himself before going out.
Lu Guan categorically refused, but his sleeves were pulled tightly and he couldn't break free for a while, so Song Qianzhi had to wear the armor for him personally.When Song Qianzhi stood up, Lu Guan put his arms around his waist and bowed his head for a deep kiss.
Song Qianzhi hugged his neck, opened his lips to let him in without any resistance, entwined lips and tongue, separated after a while, and pushed the door out.
There were no more than a dozen people in the front and back of the entire county office, and it was boiling in an instant. The sound of dogs barking, chickens barking, shouting, and fleeing screams exploded.
But within a few breaths, Hongping County has been plunged into a sea of flames.
☆、The Difficulty of Prosperity (Pick up)
There are less than [-] troops stationed in the city, which were transferred for the reconstruction of Hongping County, and there are less than [-] people in the city who can fight.Relying on the hastily built fortifications, the entire Hongping County military and civilian government resisted to the death, a fierce battle, and the killing was close to noon.
The news of Xu Dingyuan's capture completely defeated the defenders, and more than fifty soldiers who abandoned their weapons and surrendered were executed on the spot.
At this time, Song Qianzhi and Lu Guan were fleeing westward with 43 surviving people. They did not dare to stop for a moment. It was approaching evening and they were less than [-] miles away from the city of Mengzhou. Many people were already dead. Thirsty and hungry.
Song Qianzhi reined in his horse and ordered to rest on the spot.
The soldiers in the team took the horses to graze and drink water, while the rest untied the dry food on the spot and shared the bread and water.
Lu Guan sat behind Song Qianzhi, untied his robe, glanced at the injury on his back shoulder, blood was seeping from the bandage, and his brows furrowed in pain.
"It's okay, it doesn't hurt." Song Qianzhi comforted him calmly.
This defeat did not frustrate him too much. At least they bought nearly three hours of retreat time for the rear towns. Along the way, the villages, towns and counties were empty. I don't know if they received a report from Zhou Xian or an order from the court.
Next was Mengzhou, but Song Qianzhi and Lu Guan could not stay in Mengzhou. They brought these dozens of survivors to Mengzhou, and they had to go back to the capital quickly. Song Qianzhi was worried about his mother.
The cold wind was blowing, and everyone's face in the team was black and dusty.
Song Qianzhi stared at the empty and barren field, feeling a little dazed in his heart, and muttered to himself, "I don't know if Xu Dingyuan will be killed."
Xu Dingyuan forced Song Qianzhi and Lu Guan to lead people to retreat with death, and within half an hour of retreating, the two scouts sent out returned one, and the other was shot to death by the Heidi people. The scout who returned said that Xu Dingyuan was killed The officers and soldiers who surrendered were insulted, and the Hedi people had won a complete victory. They forced the captives to drink urine and eat dirt. Finally, they tied everyone together, blindfolded them, locked them in the sheepfold, and set fire to the whole place. Hongping County.
Lu Guan didn't speak, he untied the bandage on Song Qianzhi's shoulder, and wrapped it with a clean cloth strip. The rocket was burnt to black, and there was no medicine. It was simply cleaned and bandaged. Wounds are not prone to infection.
When Lu Guan applied medicine to him for the first time, Song Qianzhi was still joking, saying that even if it wasn't burned, there is nothing now, and he would still burn the sword to cut off the carrion from the wound, which would save trouble.It's just that when Lu Guan poured the strong wine on it, Song Qianzhi couldn't say a word.
Lu Guan was so angry with him, and there was nothing he could do about it, he felt distressed and blamed himself.
On the vast plain, the long wind blows wildly. There is no rain or snow. There are thousands of layers of clouds in the sky, piled up together, making people breathless.
Someone in the seated crowd began to speak.
"Fortunately, my wife left first."
"Well, my wife and husband also left first."
"I really regret it now. I heard my father stay in Hongping to guard the house. If I went north to join my uncle two months ago, I'm afraid I would have found something to do."
Sighs came and went.
They are not soldiers, Song Qianzhi listened with a blank face.When they retreated, Hongping County had already been destroyed. Now, more than an hour had passed, and the scouts found out for the second time that no one was chasing them. Heidi's army had disappeared and had left Hongping County.
Song Qianzhi told the scouts to return to the team, don't spy any more, he is only one person, just make sure there are no pursuers, otherwise it will be nothing more than an extra head.
"Let's go." Song Qianzhi stood up with difficulty, got on his horse, and Lu Guan rode on the other horse, walking side by side with him.The rest of the people also got on their horses quickly, and no one dared to slack off. No one knew whether the Heidi army would take a break and come after them again. Only by rushing to Mengzhou as soon as possible could they breathe a sigh of relief.
The sky had just darkened, and the city tower standing in the twilight not far away ran into Song Qianzhi's eyes. He was relieved and was saved, holding his vest from behind with one hand.Song Qianzhi turned his head and glanced at Lu Guan, when an inconspicuous green light flashed across the sky.
Lu Guan also saw it, and his expression changed drastically.
Song Qianzhi glanced at the sky, and muttered: "That's it?" His eyes widened suddenly, his pupils constricted, and his breathing was stagnant, "Who sent the signal?!"
Song Qianzhi immediately got off his horse, bowed his head to the ground, and the sound of the rumbling horse's hooves pierced his eardrums.
"Scout!" Lu Guan roared.
Immediately someone reported: "The scout is not here! What's the matter, my lord?"
Song Qianzhi rode his horse to the bottom of the city tower, and shouted at the guards upstairs: "Put the city gate, I am the inspector of the four prefectures to inspect, and there are official documents, please come quickly to check!"
Under the light blue smoke, the soldiers on the Mengzhou city tower went to report to the chief.
An urgent report came from the watchtower: "There is an enemy attacking!"
The city gate, which was less than half opened, stopped suddenly.
There will be trouble under the tower.
"Open the door, let us go in!" "What's the matter, my lord, why didn't you let the city gate go?!"
There is a moat under the gate of Mengzhou City. At this time, the gate is not open, and the people of Hongping County under the city can only wait for death.
The army horses of the black enemy loomed in the distance. It seemed that there were not many of them, and it was impossible for them to be many. Otherwise, if they followed so closely, they would not go unnoticed.Looking far away, Song Qianzhi saw that there were only a few hundred people, but with the extremely exhausted and inexperienced Hongping County citizens under his command, they could not fight at all.
Lu Guan set his bow and arrow, aiming at the twisted rope on the side of the wooden plank of the city wall.
At the critical moment, the city gate was lowered.
The chief of the Mengzhou garrison shouted: "Where is the imperial envoy? Come into the city quickly! Come on!"
Song Qianzhi led dozens of his men across the city bridge at the fastest speed, and the iron hooves of the Heidi cavalry behind them came rumblingly, shaking the ground faintly.
The leading horse stepped on the plank.
Lu Guan let go of the string with one hand, and then an arrow flew out, and two more arrows in a hurry, respectively shot at the general on the horse, the horse's neck and horse's leg.
"Close the city gate!" Song Qianzhi yelled in the cave of the city tower.
The soldiers woke up as if they had just woken up from a dream, and tried their best to hinge the chains.
The light blue light in the sky was completely covered, and the city gate was covered with
This is the worst place I've ever lived in in my life. It's even worse than the posthouse I stayed on Rongzhou Road.
The wind was blowing into the house from all directions. Even if the doors and windows were closed, it was unknown where the roof was broken and where the windows were not glued properly.
Lu Guan came in from the house, and there was another gust of cold wind. He stood by the bed, undressed and got up.
Song Qianzhi was wrapped in a quilt, with only one head exposed, lying on the bed, staring at him brightly. At this moment, he saw Lu Guan take off his martial robe, revealing a broad and strong back. Looking up through the muscles, the head is drooping, and the neck is very red.
In the end, Lu Guan took off only a pair of thin underpants, turned around hesitantly, saw that Song Qianzhi was wrapped up like a caterpillar, and couldn't help laughing.
Song Qianzhi looked at the soft smile on his face fascinatedly, and there was heat in his chest, he couldn't feel the cold, so he lifted the quilt, patted the bed, and signaled Lu Guan to come up.
Lu Guan's bare chest was very warm.
Song Qianzhi hugged him and didn't want to let go, he put his cold hands and feet on Lu Guan's body, Lu Guan put his arms around his shoulders, and heard Song Qianzhi whisper: "Aren't you afraid of the cold?"
"Well, I have never been afraid since I was a child. Counting nine cold days is just a cloth robe."
The sound of raindrops on the roof was very soft, and the windows were knocked by the wind from time to time.
Song Qianzhi rested his head on Lu Guan's shoulder, as if he had fallen asleep.
Lu Guan stepped back a little, looked at Song Qianzhi's face, he was thinking of something, his face turned red, even his neck was red.
Song Qianzhi suddenly opened his eyes.
Lu Guan was caught off guard, his eyes were facing each other, and he lowered his head to find Song Qianzhi's lips out of breath.
Simply Song Qianzhi moved his body, stepped back, and at the same time hugged Lu Guan's neck with both hands. When he kissed him, he opened his lips naturally, and when his warm and moist tongues were intertwined, there was an unspeakable The shuddering spread from the scalp to the neck, and Song Qianzhi felt indescribably comfortable with the numbness of the tendons and bones.
After finally separating, Lu Guan kissed Song Qianzhi's forehead and asked in a low voice, "Have you ever kissed someone else?"
Song Qianzhi chuckled: "Have you wanted to ask for a long time?"
Lu Guan really wanted to ask for a long time, but at this moment his face became uncomfortable, and he said with a stiff face: "It's just a casual question, it's fine if you don't say anything."
"I've kissed you before, but I haven't kissed you like this before." Song Qianzhi's face was hot, and he fumbled in Lu Guan's arms, sometimes hugging his waist. There is an unspeakable sense of steadfastness and peace of mind, and I can't help but always want to wrap around him.
The quilt of the county government office was damp, and it was raining outside, so it was cold everywhere except this warm quilt.
The two are close to each other, and they have indescribable interest.
"What about you?" Although I already knew that you were a virgin, I still asked.Song Qianzhi thought to himself, lowered his head, and put his face on Lu Guan's chest. Lu Guan's heartbeat sounded in his ears, one after another calm and powerful. It wet Lu Guan's heart.
Lu Guan: "..."
Song Qianzhi licked his lips: "Ask you." He rubbed Lu Guan's right chest with his hands, and squeezed one leg into Lu Guan's legs, so much warmer.
"It was the first time in the government office of Rongzhou that day. It was the second time on the city wall today." Lu Guan helplessly grabbed Song Qianzhi's troublesome hand, and said in a hoarse voice: "Don't mess around."
The two were very close, and Song Qianzhi's whole body was stuck in his arms, so he knew that Lu Guan was too hard to bear.
"Kiss again." Song Qianzhi gently pulled out his hand and hugged Lu Guan's neck, staring at Lu Guan with bright eyes, "Now, it's the third time."
Lu Guan took a rough breath, lowered down and kissed him cooperatively.After kissing again and again, Song Qianzhi didn't stop for a while, and wanted to kiss again, his face was drooling, and his well-dressed unlined clothes became messy.
Lu Guan had no choice but to get up and look for water, wrung out the handkerchief and came over to wipe Song Qianzhi's face, wiped himself, wiped off his sweaty chest, went out and splashed cold water, stood in the cold wind for a while before entering the house .
When he hugged someone again, Song Qianzhi shivered from the cold, and touched Lu Guan's body dissatisfied, and rubbed against Lu Guan's body back and forth.
Lu Guan couldn't bear it anymore, he grabbed Song Qianzhi's waist, made him stick to his body, lowered his head and bit his neck gently.
Song Qianzhi trembled all over, and his whole body softened, only feeling that fiery tongue swimming on his neck.
"Okay, I have something to do tomorrow, go to bed." Lu Guan raised his head, looked at Song Qian for a while, couldn't help but lowered down and kissed his eyelids, and breathed a sigh of relief, "Your eyes are so beautiful."
Song Qianzhi snorted proudly.
"You're lucky, my mother is a famous beauty, I look more like my mother."
Lu Guan remembered and asked: "The Queen Mother Zhou is your real aunt, and your mother is the real sister of the Queen Mother Zhou?"
"Well, she's sick, finish her errands quickly, and I want to go back to Beijing early. I'm always worried that she's at home."
"Why hasn't Zhou Xian's carrier pigeon come back yet?" Song Qianzhi changed his posture, pinching Lu Guan's palm with one hand. He still wanted to do something, but he already felt close enough, and he was in a daze to do anything else. I don't understand, I have to go back to Beijing to find someone to ask for advice.
"I don't know, maybe Yao Jiqu failed to forward the letter to Qin Yuning for a while, or Qin Yuning hasn't replied yet. You have to wait for Qin Yuning to write a reply before sending it back."
Song Qianzhi was quiet for a moment, then remembered something again, put his hand on Lu Guan's chest, raised his head and asked him: "How do you think the front line is going?"
Lu Guan was already sleepy, and when he heard Song Qianzhi's voice, he woke up suddenly, thought for a while, and then said: "Fengping Gorge should not be broken yet, Fengping Gorge is less than a hundred miles away from here, if it breaks, there will naturally be Wounded soldiers and refugees poured in, but the situation is still calm."
"I hope God bless me." Song Qianzhi couldn't help but find it funny when he said the same thing, "Lu Guan, do you know Fu Mingmao?"
"what happened?"
"I just want to know, if he and Fu Mingshao really meet, who will win."
The rain was getting louder and louder.
Song Qianzhi's forehead was a little cold, and Lu Guan also noticed it, and turned over with Song Qianzhi in his arms, pressing him under his body.
Song Qianzhi breathed heavily and said, "No, the whole bed will be wet later."
"To my room?"
Approaching the third watch, Lu Guan poked his head out from the room secretly, his shoulders and back were naked, he looked left and right to see if there was no one there, and went back to carry Song Qianzhi and others out of the room with the quilt in his arms.
Zhou Xian, who got up to relieve himself, saw a strong man coming out of Song Qianzhi's room in a daze, with someone in his arms, and he woke up suddenly.
Zhou Xian stood there in a daze, sweeping back and forth between Lu Guan and Song Qianzhi, swallowed hard, stepped into his room with staring eyes, and slammed the door shut.
Song Qianzhi: "..."
Lu Guan: "..."
The two of them had just laid down on Lu Guan's bed for less than half an hour, and the quilt was still warm, and the raindrops dripped onto Lu Guan's face.
Before Song Qianzhi could speak, he was taken aback for a moment, then burst out laughing, rolling around on the bed.
Lu Guan was speechless, and said to Song Qianzhi: "Wait."
Song Qianzhi lay down on the bed, and after a while, he heard movement in the room, and Lu Guan lowered his voice: "Is the water still running?"
Not as good as Song Qianzhi's answer.
A strange voice from the next door said, "Your Excellency, use your strength."
"……………………………..." Song Qianzhi heard the sound of a tile breaking, and there was a lot of movement, and suddenly fell silent.
After a while, the door opened, Lu Guan came in, got into the bed and hugged Song Qianzhi.
"Did you fix the roof? Did you fix it?" Song Qianzhi asked curiously.
Lu Guan: "Well, it won't leak to the bed for a while, what did you say before?"
Song Qianzhi yawned: "Forget it, let's talk about it tomorrow." He almost couldn't open his eyes, he slipped into Lu Guan's arms, and fell asleep peacefully holding the coal tightly.
Lu Guan hugged Song Qianzhi into his arms, looked down at his handsome eyebrows, sniffed his cheeks, finally kissed Song Qianzhi's eyebrows lightly, and closed his eyes to sleep.
☆、The Difficulty of Prosperity ([-])
Waking up in the morning, Song Qianzhi hung on Lu Guan like an octopus, and when he moved, he heard Lu Guan's deep voice asking, "Are you awake?"
Song Qianzhi murmured, hugged Lu Guan tighter, and muttered: "I'm not awake, I won't get up."
Having said that, Song Qianzhi couldn't help laughing, opened his eyes and rolled over to Lu Guan, hugged him and kissed him for a while, then struggled to get up, the quilt was really warm, and the moment he got off the ground, Song Qianzhi felt every breath in his body. Every pore was frozen, and he breathed heavily.
Lu Guan patted his face lightly: "So cold?"
Song Qianzhi pressed his hands that were as frozen as ice cubes to Lu Guan's chest, and Lu Guan let him make trouble, took the robe and put it on with him.
When I ran into Zhou Xian when I went out, he waved his hands listlessly and said, "Morning."
Song Qianzhi saw him sucking his snot, so he opened his mouth and asked, "Have you caught a cold? Is there a leak in your room?"
Zhou Xian wanted to say something, but he glanced at Lu Guan, shut his mouth, smiled and made a gesture, asking Song Qianzhi and Lu Guan to go first.
The more Song Qianzhi thought about it, the more strange he became. He choked on the unpalatable wotou and stretched out his neck.Lu Guan gave him a smooth hand, and let him take a sip of porridge first.
The hot porridge flowed down his throat, and Song Qianzhi managed to catch his breath. He turned his head to look at Zhou Xian who was serving the meal, and asked Lu Guan in a low voice, "What did you do to him last night?"
Song Qianzhi remembered that he heard a lot of movement on the roof last night, it didn't look like repairing the roof, it seemed like something was smashed.
"I lifted his roof off." Lu Guandan said.
Song Qianzhi wanted to laugh, but he held back after thinking about it, and seeing Zhou Xian sitting down with his nose dragging his nose, his head tucked into his fur collar, he couldn't help but burst out laughing.
Zhou Xian said angrily: "Is it okay for me to make a joke casually?"
Lu Guan ignored him.
Song Qianzhi thought that Zhou Xian had made do with the cold wind and rain all night, laughing secretly while eating.
Zhou Xian had nothing to do with him, he couldn't scold him, he couldn't beat him, and he couldn't beat him.
After the meal, Song Qianzhi asked Xu Dingyuan to send him two bookkeepers to lead the way to the county town to visit the residents who were seriously affected by the earthquake.
Hongping County was hit by an earthquake in mid-October, and nearly half of the houses collapsed. The casualties were not the most serious, and many cattle and horses died.For poor and small households, the death of a farm ox almost cut off their livelihood.Fortunately, Mengzhou has always been a place where there is no shortage of food, and the state government can handle it, not like Rongzhou.
There are nine grades of soil, and Rongzhou is in the middle and lower. It is not too bad, but it is not good either. It is almost all dependent on the sky.
The victims received the money, and some of them packed up sweet potatoes and sweet potatoes at home as New Year gifts to Song Qianzhi. Looking at those eyes that were still sincere after suffering, Song Qianzhi couldn't say no if he refused, so he had to let the accompanying men Accept it, take it back and leave it to Xu Dingyuan.
In two months, the reconstruction of the house has basically been completed, and the grain distributed by Mengzhou has also been delivered to every household.Song Qianzhi thought while walking, Xu Dingyuan, the county magistrate did a good job, but his personality was one of surprise.But people are like this, some people are silent, some people are bluffing, only the heart can be divided into good and dark, and the character is not important.
By noon, all the households that should be visited had been visited, and Song Qian's feet had softened, leaving the last family, Lu Guan said that he would carry him.
Song Qianzhi blushed, unpreparedly watching Lu Guan bowing sideways in front of him.
"No, no, let's go!"
The men were all laughing.
Zhou Xian said even more eccentrically: "Lord Lu is willing to be a horse for Master Song, but Master Song doesn't show face. Tsk, my feet are really sore and painful from walking. It's better for Master Lu to carry me."
Song Qianzhi took two steps ahead.
From behind, Lu Guan turned his head and waved to Zhou Xian: "Come on, carry you."
Zhou Xian walked over vigilantly, and threw himself on Lu Guan's back. Lu Guan grabbed his waist with his backhand, and before Zhou Xian could stand still, he directly moved him to the ground.
Song Qianzhi was hilarious, and the subordinates who followed were laughing, Zhou Xian got up from the ground with a blushing face, spit out the dust in his mouth twice, speechless, and could only admit that he was unlucky.
Lu Guan came up from behind and took Song Qianzhi's hand. Now no one dared to make a fuss, only saw two imperial envoy chiefs biting their ears in front. Pinching his ears, he kept turning his head and staring at Master Song's side face endlessly.
All the subordinates felt that their eyes hurt and they were about to go blind.
After lunch, Xu Dingyuan returned to the county office with a disheveled face, and listened to Song Qianzhi's order, nodding his head and moaning: "That's what you said, Mr. Song, is there no certainty about the front line?"
Just at this moment, a black spot rushed into the hall from far to near, and fell beside Zhou Xian's martial boots, making a cooing sound.
"This is?" Xu Dingyuan stared dumbfounded as Zhou Xian grabbed the pigeon and took down the letter.
Zhou Xian unfolded the letter and glanced at it. It was two sheets of letter paper rolled together. He took one of them and gave Qin Yuning's reply letter to Song Qianzhi.
One of Song Qian's expressions changed immediately.
Lu Guan: "What's the matter?" Song Qianzhi showed him the letter, Lu Guan's lips were tightly closed, and after a while, he made a decisive decision and said to Xu Dingyuan, "Go up to the tower immediately, don't repair the unrepaired areas, and put the key points in the gate. The horse trap was dug immediately, and all the laborers in the county were mobilized to dig. The women were gathered together, the fire oil tanks were prepared, and the rolling stones were pulled to the tower with a cart, and the gaps in the city wall were set up with horse ropes and shelters for archers. "
Xu Dingyuan's face turned pale when he heard it, and he immediately understood that the Fengping Gorge had been broken, and the Heidi army would probably arrive here before dark.
Xu Dingyuan asked Song Qianzhi with trembling voice: "Young Master?"
"According to Lord Lu's instructions, first gather the elderly and children and evacuate westward. After an hour, the women will also evacuate, and some young and middle-aged men will be assigned to escort, and the rest will stay in the city."
"This... how to divide..." Xu Dingyuan was sweating anxiously, "Human life is not distinguished, and as a parent official, I really can't make a choice."
"The only son is single-passed to escort the old, the weak, women and children. If there are multiple sons in the family, it is up to the decision."
Xu Dingyuan heaved a sigh of relief, shook his head and said, "This is the only way to do it. Will the adults leave the city immediately?"
Song Qianzhi glanced at Lu Guan, and read Lu Guan's meaning from his deep eyes, whatever.Song Qianzhi quickly made a decision and turned to Zhou Xian: "Zhou Xian, take the late emperor's sword and leave, go west to report the news, first go to the capital of Mengzhou, and then go west to report the matter, don't stay longer, go directly to Beijing... "
Thinking of one thing, Song Qianzhi frowned slightly. Since Qin Yuning received the military report of Fengpingxia's collapse, Fu Mingshao's court would definitely retreat westward.Pigeons can only go back and forth between Qilinwei in Beijing and Zhou Xianfang, that is, Hongping County, and Qin Yuning can only receive the news so quickly by relying on [-] miles to rush.When the Ministry of War gets the news, it will immediately make a decision to convey to the state capitals. Qin Yuning's letter was written in a scribbled handwriting, obviously written in a hurry.
"No, it's too late. The imperial court should respond. You go north and report to General Bai Guyou's army, and let them go south to intercept."
"Your Majesty has no order for the Northern Army?" Zhou Xian asked.
"Qin Yuning hadn't replied yet, and there was already a quarrel in the court. You go with the commanding sword of the late emperor. It's up to Bai Guyou to make up his own mind." Song Qianzhi frowned deeply, "Once The imperial court has an order for the Zhenbei Army, this situation can be resolved. If the emperor does not issue an order..."
Song Qianzhi didn't say the rest.
Xu Dingyuan immediately took people out to deploy, and Zhou Xian led the order to leave Hongping County Yamen with a sword on his back.
The wet and cold heavy rain last night turned out to be a sunny day today. Song Qianzhi went out, and the warm winter sun shone on his body, but he still felt very cold.
Someone took his hand, and Song Qianzhi seemed to have a floating board in his empty heart. He turned his head to look at Lu Guan, and Lu Guan's hand held his hand tightly, returning to Song Qianzhi's strength bit by bit. On his body, the sunlight also merged into a warm current, which permeated his whole body from his standing feet.
"I want you to protect Zhou Xian. With his own strength, if the Sword of Heaven falls into the hands of Fu Mingmao." Then we can only finish the game together.Fu Mingmao was in the dark, and it was impossible to estimate how many masters followed him.I can only gamble that Zhou Xian can move the northern army smoothly and let Bai Guyou go south.
Lu Guan stared at Song Qianzhi seriously, and said: "That night when you went back to Rongzhou, you were right behind me. I suddenly had a feeling that you were there. When I turned around, you were really standing inside the door. I... …I didn’t understand it at the time, but the words you said to me later made me even more confused. Until yesterday, on the city wall, overlooking the rivers and rivers, the heavens, the earth, the mountains, the rivers and the people are all alive, and with the strength of one person, I want to protect the world , It’s like an idiot saying that Mengtang’s arm is a car. But I can stand in front of you, if I can’t protect you, like the night I was assassinated when I first arrived in Rongzhou, I’m willing to die in front of you.”
"Since you are willing to come back for me, no matter what, I will not leave you." Lu Guan said hoarsely, staring at Song Qianzhi hesitantly for a moment, as if he was afraid to look at him, his eyes flickered, but he couldn't move away.
Song Qian's heart trembled violently, and he suddenly calmed down, giving birth to tranquility in his heart, just like listening to the snow in winter, looking at the moon in autumn, and singing the rooster at five o'clock.In the silence, only the person in front of me is real.He looked at Lu Guan quietly, not knowing whether this moment was long or short, he squeezed his hand tightly.
"If you want to die, die together." After a pause, Song Qianzhi smiled, "But it's better not to die, my mother is still in Beijing."
Lu Guan: "...forgot."
"Also, Lu Shunqin." Song Qianzhi stretched out his hand to touch Lu Guan's face, and slid his finger behind his ear along his handsome eyebrows, "Your life is mine, even if the emperor wants to take it, it's up to me to answer." I don't agree." Song Qianzhi didn't take Fu Mingshao seriously at first, in his eyes, his cousin Fu Minghong should be the emperor most, and if his cousin is dead, it doesn't matter whoever is the emperor.At this time, the sky is high and the emperor is far away, and it is a big deal to take Lu Guan to run away. Of course, he has to pick up his mother first.
Lu Guan couldn't help but leaned towards Song Qianzhi, wanting to kiss him, but Song Qianzhi backed away, just as Lu Guan was puzzled, Song Qianzhi kissed him again with a smile.
The kiss made their lips hurt, and the two separated. Song Qianzhi licked his lips, and said dissatisfiedly: "You can't let me kiss you. It's so good to have teeth touching each other?" Damn, the teeth hurt when they collided. Not to mention, my mind is still buzzing, and if I don't pay attention, I will bite my tongue.
Lu Guan hugged Song Qianzhi's waist domineeringly, lowered his head to his forehead, and kissed the bridge of his nose.
"You won't let me in."
Hearing these words in Fengyue veteran Song Qianzhi's ears, they naturally had another meaning, and scolded: "You should let me in!"
Lu Guan smiled, kissed Song Qianzhi's back and buttocks along Song Qianzhi's waist.
In broad daylight, even Song Qianzhi felt a little embarrassed. Although there was no one around, Lu Guan was too bold.Afraid of being bumped into by his subordinates, Song Qianzhi thought again that Hei Di's army would arrive in Hongping County in a few hours, and they were still hugging and kissing here, and even boasted that it was the best. Got Lao Gao, and also noticed Lu Guan's reaction, it was embarrassing, I knew that I gritted my teeth last night and got things done, but I didn't realize that this evil fire was untouched by anyone, and I couldn't hold it when I thought about it. Qianzhi had no choice but to push Lu Guan away, cursing and looking for Xu Dingyuan outside the Yamen.
In the evening, under Xu Dingyuan's personal supervision, horse pits were dug for all the pass gaps in Hongping County, and defenses were set up near the city walls that had not been repaired in time.
Nearly half of the residents had already evacuated. The old, weak, women and children had all left the city two hours ago, escorted by 48 elite soldiers and [-] civilian experts, and fled westward for their lives.
Before dinner, Xu Dingyuan went down to the county government office in disgrace, Song Qianzhi and Lu Guan came back after a while, and the three adults had dinner at the same table.
Xu Dingyuan glanced at the four dishes and one soup on the table, put down the chopsticks with a snap, called the servant, and ordered him to take out the good wine buried in the Yamen.
Xu Dingyuan said: "My lords, if you are lucky today and have a false alarm, you should celebrate it with wine. If you recite your words, you should be brave." He smiled wryly, "I came from a humble job and a poor family for ten years. I am a scholar with no hands. The power to restrain the chicken is useless right now. These wines were brought by an old friend the year before last, and they brought good wines. I have never had a chance to drink them. Eating this bowl at the table with the imperial envoys is already a lowly job. I hope the adults Do not dislike."
After speaking, Xu Dingyuan straightened his neck and drank the whole cup of wine in one gulp, a blush appeared on his dark face.
"Being on the battlefield together, we are brothers." Song Qianzhi also drank in one gulp.
Xu Dingyuan was greatly encouraged, his neck was red, and he was panting heavily, only to see Lu Guan also picked up the wine cup and drank it all without saying a word.
Xu Dingyuan wanted to pour wine for Song Qianzhi and Lu Guan, but was held down by Song Qianzhi.
"Master Xu, eat vegetables."
When Song Qianzhi said this with a smile, Xu Dingyuan was taken aback for a moment, put down the wine jar, and trembled slightly with the hands holding up the chopsticks.
"How much wine is left?" Lu Guan asked.
When Song Qianzhi heard this, his heart moved.
Xu Dingyuan replied: "There are twelve altars in total, and one altar was opened here. Last year, a friend came to the county government to accompany the humble official to celebrate the New Year. He drank one altar, and there should be ten more altars."
The boy said beside him, "It's ten altars. I just counted the small ones."
"Get up." Lu Guan said.
"Master Song won't allow you to drink, is this?" Xu Dingyuan was at a loss.
Song Qianzhi smiled and didn't answer, just focused on eating the food, and told Xu Dingyuan to eat too, and told them not to eat too much, Xu Dingyuan ate a few chopsticks with a sad face, and asked Song Qianzhi if an official held a banquet in Beijing, would it be right? There are singers present to serve.
"That's what happened."
Xu Dingyuan called the cook out, and said to Song Qianzhi: "This cook in the humble mansion also has a good singing voice, and she has recited a lot of poems. Ask her to sing a few songs." Then he said to the cook, "Sing Come on, you can sing whatever you want."
The cook was wiping her red hands from the cold on the apron. Her hair was disheveled and hanging on her forehead, her face was thinly covered with greasy sweat, and her skin was fair. Standing sideways, her hands never let go of the apron.After thinking for a moment, the cook opened her mouth and began to sing.
First, there is a poem that children can memorize fluently. Her voice is sweet and soft, which has a soothing effect. She sings leisurely: "The sound of firecrackers kills the year, and the spring breeze brings warmth into Tusu. Thousands of households celebrate the day, and the total Replace the old talisman with the new peach."
Xu Dingyuan laughed, the corners of his eyes were red.
"I forgot that tomorrow is New Year's Eve." Xu Dingyuan sighed.
Song Qianzhi looked at Lu Guan, and thought that Lu Guan was alone, and it must be deserted during the Chinese New Year. Now in Beijing, he probably rented a down-and-out house, and was alone on New Year's Eve.I also thought that if I were at home, I would have pasted up the Spring Festival couplets rewarded in the palace, replaced the peach charms on the door, and sent out the reward letters to the villages, and piled up walnuts, sesame seeds, orange cakes, and peanuts in the yard like hills. The other things have to be smashed and boiled with sugar, and the whole Hou Mansion will eat this bowl of glutinous rice balls in the morning of the first day of the new year.
I was mostly idle in the house, warming up the fire and reading, only waiting to go out to play on New Year's Eve, and made an appointment with a few young masters from the Ministry of Finance and the Ministry of Punishment to go to Xiangguo Temple to burn incense and see beauties.
In a trance, the cook lady sang the song three times and changed the key, the woman's gentle and round voice cooled down.
Just listen to her singing: "Liu Ma has just crossed the white jade saddle, and the moonlight is cold on the battlefield after the battle."
The cook was singing, and Xu Dingyuan filled a glass of wine and drank it down.
"The sound of the iron drum at the top of the city is still shaking..."
"Master Xu, I respect you." Song Qianzhi raised the wine cup, and Lu Guan also drank the wine with Xu Dingyuan.
"The golden knife and blood in the box are not dry." The cook's voice turned, the tune rose, and the libretto was repeated.
It's all a song, and I'll pay my respects.
"Wait, Master Xu, all the women in the city have retreated..." What happened to the cook in front of me?Song Qianzhi reacted suddenly and was a little stunned.
Before Xu Dingyuan could speak, the cook bowed again: "Qiuxi is very grateful for being able to present a song for the adults. You don't have to ask, Mr. Song, my family went to Beijing with Mr. Xu for the exam. When I was appointed, Mr. Xu took my family with me Now the slave family will stay with Mr. Xu in Hongping County."
Song Qianzhi looked at these two people, then looked at Lu Guan, heaved a sigh of relief, drank the third cup of wine, and respected the woman who had betrothed Xu Dingyuan.
After drinking that night, there was still no news of the enemy's attack. Xu Dingyuan followed Lu Guan's instructions and took the remaining ten altars of wine to the tower, mixed water with the soldiers, and stayed in the army to sit in the town, let Song Qianzhi and Lu Guan first for rest.
Song Qianzhi didn't want to go to sleep at first, but after thinking about it, he hasn't called yet, so it's better to nourish his spirit.Anyone who can sleep at this time should be snickering, so they simply went back to the room and let Lu Guan hug him to sleep, because after drinking, he fell asleep in a dark and sweet sleep.
It felt like a long sleep.
In the dream, Song Qianzhi suddenly twitched and woke up.
Lu Guansheng got closer: "It's not yet dawn, and the fight hasn't started yet."
Song Qianzhi sat up, heard Lu Guan asking if he was still asleep, nodded in a daze, and stretched out his hand to signal Lu Guan to dress him.
"Haven't come yet, I'm afraid it's a detour." Lu Guan tied Song Qianzhi's belt and whispered, "Sleep for a while?"
The lingering uneasiness before waking up made Song Qianzhi's heart skip a beat, and he couldn't remember what he had dreamed with all his strength. There was a heavy stone on his heart, and his eyelids couldn't stop twitching.Song Qianzhi pressed his eye sockets hard, rubbed them, and was about to say something.
There was a commotion outside from far to near, sweeping through the entire county office like sparks in an instant.
Song Qianzhi and Lu Guan glanced at each other hurriedly, when the door was opened, three balls of flames fell from the sky, one fell into the water tank and emitted black smoke, and the other landed on the stone slab and burned itself.
Lu Guan dragged Song Qianzhi around his waist back into the room, took the sword, and put the bow on his back, while Song Qianzhi put on an arrow basket, held the bow in one hand, and held a sword in his waist.
Lu Guan quickly put on the armor for him, and Song Qianzhi hurriedly grabbed the man and asked Lu Guan to put it on himself before going out.
Lu Guan categorically refused, but his sleeves were pulled tightly and he couldn't break free for a while, so Song Qianzhi had to wear the armor for him personally.When Song Qianzhi stood up, Lu Guan put his arms around his waist and bowed his head for a deep kiss.
Song Qianzhi hugged his neck, opened his lips to let him in without any resistance, entwined lips and tongue, separated after a while, and pushed the door out.
There were no more than a dozen people in the front and back of the entire county office, and it was boiling in an instant. The sound of dogs barking, chickens barking, shouting, and fleeing screams exploded.
But within a few breaths, Hongping County has been plunged into a sea of flames.
☆、The Difficulty of Prosperity (Pick up)
There are less than [-] troops stationed in the city, which were transferred for the reconstruction of Hongping County, and there are less than [-] people in the city who can fight.Relying on the hastily built fortifications, the entire Hongping County military and civilian government resisted to the death, a fierce battle, and the killing was close to noon.
The news of Xu Dingyuan's capture completely defeated the defenders, and more than fifty soldiers who abandoned their weapons and surrendered were executed on the spot.
At this time, Song Qianzhi and Lu Guan were fleeing westward with 43 surviving people. They did not dare to stop for a moment. It was approaching evening and they were less than [-] miles away from the city of Mengzhou. Many people were already dead. Thirsty and hungry.
Song Qianzhi reined in his horse and ordered to rest on the spot.
The soldiers in the team took the horses to graze and drink water, while the rest untied the dry food on the spot and shared the bread and water.
Lu Guan sat behind Song Qianzhi, untied his robe, glanced at the injury on his back shoulder, blood was seeping from the bandage, and his brows furrowed in pain.
"It's okay, it doesn't hurt." Song Qianzhi comforted him calmly.
This defeat did not frustrate him too much. At least they bought nearly three hours of retreat time for the rear towns. Along the way, the villages, towns and counties were empty. I don't know if they received a report from Zhou Xian or an order from the court.
Next was Mengzhou, but Song Qianzhi and Lu Guan could not stay in Mengzhou. They brought these dozens of survivors to Mengzhou, and they had to go back to the capital quickly. Song Qianzhi was worried about his mother.
The cold wind was blowing, and everyone's face in the team was black and dusty.
Song Qianzhi stared at the empty and barren field, feeling a little dazed in his heart, and muttered to himself, "I don't know if Xu Dingyuan will be killed."
Xu Dingyuan forced Song Qianzhi and Lu Guan to lead people to retreat with death, and within half an hour of retreating, the two scouts sent out returned one, and the other was shot to death by the Heidi people. The scout who returned said that Xu Dingyuan was killed The officers and soldiers who surrendered were insulted, and the Hedi people had won a complete victory. They forced the captives to drink urine and eat dirt. Finally, they tied everyone together, blindfolded them, locked them in the sheepfold, and set fire to the whole place. Hongping County.
Lu Guan didn't speak, he untied the bandage on Song Qianzhi's shoulder, and wrapped it with a clean cloth strip. The rocket was burnt to black, and there was no medicine. It was simply cleaned and bandaged. Wounds are not prone to infection.
When Lu Guan applied medicine to him for the first time, Song Qianzhi was still joking, saying that even if it wasn't burned, there is nothing now, and he would still burn the sword to cut off the carrion from the wound, which would save trouble.It's just that when Lu Guan poured the strong wine on it, Song Qianzhi couldn't say a word.
Lu Guan was so angry with him, and there was nothing he could do about it, he felt distressed and blamed himself.
On the vast plain, the long wind blows wildly. There is no rain or snow. There are thousands of layers of clouds in the sky, piled up together, making people breathless.
Someone in the seated crowd began to speak.
"Fortunately, my wife left first."
"Well, my wife and husband also left first."
"I really regret it now. I heard my father stay in Hongping to guard the house. If I went north to join my uncle two months ago, I'm afraid I would have found something to do."
Sighs came and went.
They are not soldiers, Song Qianzhi listened with a blank face.When they retreated, Hongping County had already been destroyed. Now, more than an hour had passed, and the scouts found out for the second time that no one was chasing them. Heidi's army had disappeared and had left Hongping County.
Song Qianzhi told the scouts to return to the team, don't spy any more, he is only one person, just make sure there are no pursuers, otherwise it will be nothing more than an extra head.
"Let's go." Song Qianzhi stood up with difficulty, got on his horse, and Lu Guan rode on the other horse, walking side by side with him.The rest of the people also got on their horses quickly, and no one dared to slack off. No one knew whether the Heidi army would take a break and come after them again. Only by rushing to Mengzhou as soon as possible could they breathe a sigh of relief.
The sky had just darkened, and the city tower standing in the twilight not far away ran into Song Qianzhi's eyes. He was relieved and was saved, holding his vest from behind with one hand.Song Qianzhi turned his head and glanced at Lu Guan, when an inconspicuous green light flashed across the sky.
Lu Guan also saw it, and his expression changed drastically.
Song Qianzhi glanced at the sky, and muttered: "That's it?" His eyes widened suddenly, his pupils constricted, and his breathing was stagnant, "Who sent the signal?!"
Song Qianzhi immediately got off his horse, bowed his head to the ground, and the sound of the rumbling horse's hooves pierced his eardrums.
"Scout!" Lu Guan roared.
Immediately someone reported: "The scout is not here! What's the matter, my lord?"
Song Qianzhi rode his horse to the bottom of the city tower, and shouted at the guards upstairs: "Put the city gate, I am the inspector of the four prefectures to inspect, and there are official documents, please come quickly to check!"
Under the light blue smoke, the soldiers on the Mengzhou city tower went to report to the chief.
An urgent report came from the watchtower: "There is an enemy attacking!"
The city gate, which was less than half opened, stopped suddenly.
There will be trouble under the tower.
"Open the door, let us go in!" "What's the matter, my lord, why didn't you let the city gate go?!"
There is a moat under the gate of Mengzhou City. At this time, the gate is not open, and the people of Hongping County under the city can only wait for death.
The army horses of the black enemy loomed in the distance. It seemed that there were not many of them, and it was impossible for them to be many. Otherwise, if they followed so closely, they would not go unnoticed.Looking far away, Song Qianzhi saw that there were only a few hundred people, but with the extremely exhausted and inexperienced Hongping County citizens under his command, they could not fight at all.
Lu Guan set his bow and arrow, aiming at the twisted rope on the side of the wooden plank of the city wall.
At the critical moment, the city gate was lowered.
The chief of the Mengzhou garrison shouted: "Where is the imperial envoy? Come into the city quickly! Come on!"
Song Qianzhi led dozens of his men across the city bridge at the fastest speed, and the iron hooves of the Heidi cavalry behind them came rumblingly, shaking the ground faintly.
The leading horse stepped on the plank.
Lu Guan let go of the string with one hand, and then an arrow flew out, and two more arrows in a hurry, respectively shot at the general on the horse, the horse's neck and horse's leg.
"Close the city gate!" Song Qianzhi yelled in the cave of the city tower.
The soldiers woke up as if they had just woken up from a dream, and tried their best to hinge the chains.
The light blue light in the sky was completely covered, and the city gate was covered with
