Dajin royal family

Chapter 158 The Two Girls

In mid-April, since the news of the Turkic people going south spread in the Jin Dynasty at the beginning of the year, although the people in the imperial capital are still living an ordinary life, they still inevitably go to wine shops, tea stalls and other places to inquire about the front line in their spare time. .

At the beginning, the common people did not have a real sense of crisis about the Turkic going south this time. After all, those Turkic dogs are in the frontier thousands of miles away.But when Chu Luo's army appeared in Yan'an County, the mentality of the people changed subtly.

Although Yan'an County does not directly border Jingzhao County, where the imperial capital is located, it is also very close to the imperial capital.In this way, the people could not help but start to worry.

Next to the post station outside Chang'an City, a group of people gathered together to chat about the Turkic Battle, and some of them had traveled thousands of miles to Chang'an to seek connections for this year's Zhongzheng selection.

"I said you have nothing to worry about. This time the imperial court has dispatched 35 troops, led by Prime Minister Yang and General Changsun. Why don't you worry about the Turks not retreating? Let's put your hearts in your stomachs." A scribe smiled and enlightened his neighbors. Zhuo's seniors.

The old man looked back at the scribe and said, "Young man, have you ever been to the battlefield, do you know how cruel the Turkic people are, is it appropriate to say these words lightly here? Besides, do you have a family, do you have children, do you have any children?" On the battlefield?"

Scribe's face turned dry immediately, he was just persuading with kindness, how could he stand up to the old man's sharp questions one after another.When he was embarrassed, a companion beside him smiled and said to the old man: "Old man, you may not know how powerful Xiang Yang and General Changsun are. Both of them are famous generals of our Jin Dynasty, especially General Changsun. I once repelled the Western Turks in the Western Regions, so Chang'an will not be in danger this time, and the old man's son will be back soon."

"Have you married a young man? Have you given birth to a child?" The old man didn't let him go just because of the scribe's explanation, and followed up with a series of questioning, which made the scribe feel as embarrassed as his front-line companions.In the end, I had to make an apology before I escaped.

Only then did the scribes understand that this is the capital of the empire, and the vision and vision of the people cannot be compared with that of the people in other places. They know that General Changsun is powerful in the Western Regions, so don’t these people know it? It’s really a useless explanation.

The two paid for the tea and left the station as if fleeing.

"Ruming, this old man in Chang'an is really merciless. I just tried to persuade him, why is he so aggressive." The scribe who spoke earlier straightened his clothes and said with a wry smile.

Du Ruming also smiled bitterly and said: "After all, the old man's youngest son is fighting against the Turks on the front line. We really don't understand his feelings by saying these things from the standpoint of a passer-by. It's the two of us who have made mistakes."

Wei Afu nodded, understanding what his friend meant.He said with emotion: "Although after coming to Chang'an, the people here always look down on us and other scholars from other places, but the children of these people's families are in the front line when facing foreign insults. We deserve this scolding."

Hearing this, Du Ruming chuckled, "That's true, I heard that the children of Guanzhong account for the majority of the army fighting this time."

While the two were talking, the sound of horseshoes came from behind them. When the two turned their heads to look, they saw a group of knights guarding a carriage and walking slowly.Those knights all wore horizontal knives on their waists, their faces were calm, and their eyes were tightly locked on them since they saw the two of them, causing them to retreat to the side of the official road in a hurry.

When the carriage passed in front of the two of them, Wei Afu suddenly saw a beautiful woman sitting in the carriage, which shocked him and made him want to take another look.After seeing the car curtain for a moment, he closed it again, and he lost his beautiful woman.When he was in a daze, a horsewhip suddenly exploded in his ear, which made Wei Afu tremble suddenly.

I saw a knight holding the rein, looking at him coldly, "You don't want your eyes anymore?"

Hearing this, Wei Afu immediately showed fear, because the knight had already pulled out the horizontal knife, as long as he dared to reply, his eyes might leave his body immediately.

At this moment, a voice came from the carriage, "Jiyun, let's go."

The knight glanced at Du Ruming and Wei Afo, turned his horse and left.

Wei Afo's face was flushed, and he said bitterly: "It's just a family of slaves, but they dare to show off their power in front of me. If it's not in the capital."

brush!
An arrow shot past Weaver's ear and nailed it to a tree, and the knight looked at them again.

Wei Afo swallowed back what he hadn't finished speaking, and stood there in a daze, not daring to move.Du Ruming's complexion changed, he hurriedly bowed to the knight, then pulled Wei Afo and turned away.

The two walked for a long time, and did not stop until they could no longer see those people.Du Ruming said: "Fo, this is the capital, don't look down on injustice, the people in the carriage are not ordinary women's family at first glance, so be careful."

Wei Afu was slightly annoyed and said, "I just took another look and didn't say anything rude. That house slave is so unreasonable that he dared to shoot me with an arrow. This is at the foot of the emperor!"

Du Ruming lowered his voice and said: "It is precisely because he is at the foot of the emperor, that slave acts so arrogantly, and the master behind him is either rich or noble. We did not come here to offend anyone. It is better not to provoke these Chang'an dignitaries. Don't you Have you forgotten what happened on the official road in Chang'an when you were last year?"

Hearing this, Wei Afu's body trembled immediately. Of course he had heard about the bloody case in the Chang'an officialdom. A group of second-generation dignitaries shot and killed civilians, and it had already spread in their circles.

In front of Dalin Temple, eldest grandson Qingyi got out of the carriage gracefully, only then remembered what seemed to have happened just now, and asked, "Jiyun, what happened just now?"

Nan Jiyun said: "Don't worry, mistress, but the subordinates have dismissed the two literati who don't know the heights of heaven and earth."

Changsun Qingyi nodded slightly, and said: "The Duke of the county is fighting outside, we can't make trouble for him at home. In the future, if we encounter such a thing, just give a little warning and don't do anything."

"This subordinate understands." Nan Jiyun said.

In the Golden Hall of Dalin Temple, a woman kneeled on a futon and closed her eyes to pray. Sandalwood swayed between her mouth and nose. The woman's long eyelashes fluttered from time to time. Her heart was obviously not peaceful.

In other words, she couldn't calm down either.The news that King Zhao's son led five thousand troops to defend Loufan Pass has spread throughout the capital. Everyone thinks that the son has no way out, and news of his death may come back to Chang'an after a while.

From the powerful to the common people, there is probably some regret, and there is also some admiration.The children of the rich and powerful are more mocking the stubbornness of the son of King Zhao, how could the five thousand troops be able to defend the tens of thousands of Turks.The common people are in admiration, they did not expect that the second generation of top dignitaries would be willing to give their lives for the country.

"Fool, I don't want any status anymore. I just want you to come back now. It's fine if you come back. I'm willing to do anything." Two lines of tears flowed down the woman's cheeks.

Why he insisted on resisting the Turks, perhaps his wife might not even know, but she understood, it was all for her, for her sake.

At this time, another woman in a green skirt walked slowly into the golden hall, and she saw the woman kneeling on the futon at a glance, but the woman in the green skirt didn't say anything, but silently went to the Buddha statue and knelt down to pray.

Nan Jiyun followed behind him, and when he saw the appearance of the kneeling woman, his expression changed slightly, and he looked at his mistress hesitantly.It seems inappropriate for him to stay here at this time.

Ever since her husband left for the war, Changsun Qingyi came back here to pray for her husband every few days, but today she didn't want to meet the person she had always wanted to see here.After she finished praying, she slowly opened her eyes, looked at the Buddha statue, and said softly: "Third lady, I have wanted to see you for a long time."

The woman who was kneeling earlier just got up and was about to leave silently, when she heard Changsun Qingyi's words, she stopped involuntarily.

　There will be a very important exam in a few days, and the monthly ticket renewal and rewards owed may have to be postponed, sorry brothers.
