"Pit" you for three lives and three lives

Chapter 39

You can say that some things are predestined or inevitable.

In short, even though Ahri was not following this time, Sima Yu and his party met Murong Jun in Xiangyang.

Wei Lang took a group of private soldiers and killed him again. He chased him to the north of the Han River near the camp of the Qin Army, and swaggered around to investigate. He made sure that he had really returned to the camp and that he really didn't plan to send troops out to kill him. These dozen or so people withdrew their troops back with a little regret.

In fact, it wasn't that Murong Juan didn't want to kill him.This man has fought all his life, and has always been known for his stability and lateness.He had seen someone who was domineering and domineering, but he had never seen someone as domineering and domineering as Wei Lang—a dozen or so people chased him to his camp and lingered, clearly trying to lure him into battle.Murong Juan thought for a while, this person is either looking for death, or there is an army behind him waiting for help.

Seeing that these people are well-behaved, they don't show timidity, they don't rush forward, and they can't be lured into the range of bows and arrows.I know there are talents here, and the talents will naturally not come to die, and it is more and more certain that it is the latter.

Anyway, there were only a dozen people, and he didn't pay attention to them.While waiting for the scouts to come back, they entered the tent and ate a bowl of sheep cheese.

As soon as the goat cheese was finished, the general came to report that there was no sign of a large army within ten li, should we go out and slaughter the sheep and smash them into pieces?

Murong Juan remained calm and said, "Anyway, it's smashed, so if you want to kill it, go ahead and kill it. Don't go too far."

General Pi harbored contempt—since Murong Juan came, he didn't show the ability and courage to match a generation of famous generals, but instead showed more old-fashioned and cowardly. thoughts.Thinking about it again, isn't Murong Juan just old?Besides, he defected from Beiyan, Beiyan was destroyed, how could he not be cowardly?
The more he didn't take his words to heart, "The last general will go to meet for a while."

General Pi led his troops out of the camp to chase after Wei Lang.Murong Juan looked at the sky and counted the days—October 29, the wind came up by itself.Tonight would be a good day to raid the camp.

When he reported from the future that there was no army waiting for reinforcements, Murong Juan felt that no matter who brought the troops outside, this person would be fearsome in future generations.It's a pity that young people are too full of blood, and it is easy for people to see through their schemes if they are not old.

If the situation were changed, if this young man dared to rob the camp tonight, Murong Juan would definitely kill him, and not allow him to grow up in time.

But... what does it matter to him?Northern Qin was not his home country, but the Di people were his enemies.

He has been surveying the front line for the past few days, and he has already realized that the soldiers in the south are brave, well-trained, brave and wise, and they are not comparable to what they were ten years ago.Not to mention that after the death of the prime minister, the laws and regulations of the Qin people were abolished, and they were extravagant and dissipated. Even when they were most commanding and brave and good at fighting, they might not be able to win.What's more, there are many internal troubles, and it is really not suitable for an army to go on an expedition easily.Emperor Qin simply brought himself to perish this time.Although Murong Juan respected this person, he did not intend to work for him.From the day I was transferred to the front line, I was thinking about how to go back to the rear.

It might be a good way to be blamed for a small defeat, and to ask the boss to retire.

So Murong Juan took another bowl of sheep cheese.

——Although tea is good, it is just a dairy slave.After staying in the south for a long time, Murong Jun already missed the broiled lamb and Qiang boiled in his hometown.

Seeing someone chasing him, Wei Lang slowed down and fished not far or near.Lure them along the way.He specially selected a good horse, if he couldn't beat it, he could always escape.

300 people, it is enough to cut 15 of them.But daring to chase them across the river is a bit of a big deal - Sima Yu and Xie Lian are surrounded by strong guards, sometimes there are 500 people.What's more, Xiangyang is an important town, and the guards never dare to slack off.

A burst of hacking.

Although Murong Juan didn't make money, Wei Lang felt that his trip was worthwhile.

Losing the lieutenant before the battle was a big defeat in itself.Murong Jun hadn't planned to do this yet, but when he heard that General Pi had chased him far away, he sent someone to bring 3000 troops out of the camp to rescue him.

When he was rescued, General Pi had already lost his helmet and armor, and he was in a panic.Murong Juan reprimanded him a few words, and went to rest again.

General Pi was filled with shame and indignation, seeing Murong Juan's natural appearance, he became even more angrily.

Sima Yu retreated back to the camp.The soldiers counted the results of the battle, and the three of them discussed matters on the wooden trestle at the riverside ferry.

The wind blows the reeds like snow, and the clothes are flying, making loud noises.The river is far away, the sky is wide and the clouds are low, and there are no people on both sides of the bank. This is a time and place where it is easy to lose sight of the past.

Of course, the three of them are ordinary people, so they don't have much emotion to express, and what they plan to talk about is all about robbing camps and killing people.

Xie Lian had already discussed with Sima Yu, so he remained silent, just sat on the ground, threw the fishing line, and listened to what the two of them had to say.

Of course Wei Lang was very much in favor of going to rob the camp.When he went today, he had paid special attention to where to ambush and where to kill, he probably had a clue.

Discuss the clothes and signals again, and feel that it is almost the same, so I plan to go back and talk to the guard.

Before leaving, seeing that Xie Lian had settled down, the two of them couldn't help leaning over, "Can you catch it?"

The float jumped at this moment, Xie Lian raised his hand to close the rod, and when the fish came out of the water, he couldn't help but curl his lips.When it is collected, it will be shown to Wei Lang and Sima Yu.

It turned out to be a white-scaled bream.

——I still think about Jianye water, and finally recall Wuchang fish.The fresh meat has a thick juice, and it is good for steaming, cooking, roasting and stewing. All young people in the south of the Yangtze River know the deliciousness of this fish.Even Sima Yu's eyes lit up when he saw it.

Wei Lang has already gone to look into the fish basket, and saw that there are already four or five fish inside, with white scales gleaming with silver, plump and fresh.Immediately said, "Open a small stove, open a small stove."

The fish that Xie Lian caught had never been given away, so he was never reluctant.This time, he put away the fish basket, "What kind of small stove?" He smiled, "I plan to make it into a fish and send it back."

Wei Lang and Sima Yu glanced at each other, and looked at Xie Lian very dissatisfied - this is too rude, stingy with so few fish, is it really Xie Lian?

Sending fish for thousands of miles, when did he and Huan Niang become so affectionate?

Xie Lian ignored them, and slowly collected the fishing gear, "It's late, don't you have something to do at night? Let's all go back and rest."

Already in the lead.Carrying the fishing rod like a lotus hoe, he left with the fish basket.

It was Sima Yu who suddenly came back to his senses, thought of something, and hurriedly followed, "Last time, I asked Huan Niang to be a doctor, yes, isn't it..."

Xie Lian paused.I was a little distracted for a while, and I couldn't tell whether it was joy or confusion.But he didn't get too entangled, so he smiled and said: "Yes. It has been four months today."

Wei Lang: ...Fuck!Hurry up!

Sima Yu had already turned to Xie Lian to stop people, and was a little incoherent with excitement, "What are the symptoms? Is it fatigue, sleepiness, and always getting fever for no reason. Don't you like to eat much?"

Xie Lian: =__=|||...It wasn't that he was pregnant, how could he know!

It was Wei Lang who said, "Pregnancy is not a disease, so what are you talking about?"

"Could it be a sign?" Sima Yu still didn't give up, "...I also want to write a letter home to ask, so I can take it for you by the way."

Wei Lang felt a sense of loneliness spontaneously, thinking that these two people had reached the step of becoming fathers, and even that idiot Wang Yan was engaged, he felt even more lonely.

He decided that when he went back this time, if no one promised to marry him, he would grab one and marry him.

Although Murong Juan was prepared to rob the camp at night, he was caught off guard by the three of Sima Yu.After he stabilized the situation, Sima Yu and the three of them quit as soon as they saw a good deal, and led the troops to evacuate cleanly.Even if he chased him at this moment, he might not be able to catch up.

I can't help feeling that the boy in the south is indeed a hero.

When he knew that it was the prince of the Southern Dynasty and Xie Huan's Saburo who came to rob the camp, he had already left Xiangyang far away—and maybe he would never come back again for the rest of his life.

When Sima Yu's family letter was sent back, Ah Li was taking medicine.

In fact, she knew that her illness was not cured by medicine stones at all—it was the system, which was reminding her that she had failed her test scores.Unless there is any reversible extra points plot, otherwise it will be sentenced to be out.

But Ari drank all the medicine without a drop left.

She doesn't want to give up yet.There is hope for even one more day of life.

She wanted to grow old with Sima Yu forever.She didn't understand why Sima Yu couldn't do it, they obviously liked each other.Is it just because she cannon fodder Xie Lian, no matter how much she and Sima Yu fall in love with each other, it will be irreversible?

She unfolded Sima Yu's letter.Seeing his earnest words, talking about how he robbed the camp, how he won, how heroic he was, and thinking of his appearance standing on the top of the city and posing in the wind, he couldn't help laughing.

Also like a child.

They are all so young.Only then did we get started, and life has just begun.Why was it rejected?Really should let the judges try time-traveling too, to see if they dare to casually say who is scum, who is unworthy and who deserves to die?When they make random judgments, don't they think about it?They see it as a play, but in a certain time and space, for some people, this may be their life with flesh and blood.

There is also the proposition teacher, who is too unintentional - she taught them, even if the judges are her parents, can't she be soft-hearted to the students and secretly put water?

How can this be...

Ari held the letter paper, and tears fell drop by drop.

At the back of the letter, Sima Yu reminded him again, don't run around, don't think about it, eat more, sleep more, be more happy, and think about him more.Should I call the imperial physician again to see if she is pregnant and not feeling well.I heard that Xie Lian's wife is also pregnant.

(Xie Lian: ...don't talk nonsense!)

Ari burst out laughing before she finished her tears.

After laughing, I looked at the green bamboos outside the window, watching the drizzle falling, and my mood became a little bit gloomy as if it was foggy.

In the twelfth lunar month, Sima Yu returned from patrolling.

Ari's condition is still hanging there, neither good nor bad.She didn't want Sima Yu to see it, she talked and laughed as usual, and even the imperial physician didn't announce it often.

But the real situation is still inadvertently revealed bit by bit.

Sima Yu was in the best years of his life. He had never experienced life and death—at the age of sixteen or seventeen, people don't think about these things.It was only when the death came suddenly that he realized that it was so close to him—he only knew that Ari was uncomfortable and needed to be recuperated.It never occurred to me that the disease might not be curable.

There were few things to do in the twelfth lunar month, but he didn't run out much.

Sometimes I write his "Eating Vegetable Collection" in front of Ari's recipes, and read to Ari after writing an article.When encountering Ah Li who hasn’t made it for him before, he said: “When you are well, remember to make it for me.”

This kid's literary talent is really not good, but he has a lot of witty words, which often makes Ari laugh so hard.

Sometimes I let Ari sit in his arms, and the two of them put on a cloak, with only two heads exposed to see the snow, shaking and shaking while talking.

The snow outside is boundless, the red plum blossoms are in full bloom, the buildings and pavilions are layered and undulating, and the twists and turns, the golden color and cinnabar are washed away little by little in the snowy sky, and gradually become a plain picture scroll of flying white and dyed ink; At that time, the tea was filled with white mist, and a bright yellow primrose was placed beside the cup.Sima Yu stretched out a hand from under the cloak to fetch some tea, asked Ari something, and then fed her a sip of it first, and then drank the rest.

Sometimes when he was holding a scroll, Ari would hug him from behind and reach into his clothes.Sima Yu put down the book, turned to tickle her, and made a fuss, and in all likelihood, he ended up on the bed.Ari begged for mercy, and he got up triumphantly.Ari stretched out his arms to wrap his arms around his neck, his long eyelashes drooped, his eyes sparkled, and he exhaled like blue, "...Don't go." Even though he always felt that Ari's sentence "It's fine if you get pregnant" Teased him, but when Ahri said, "Let's have a baby," he believed that she would get better soon.

Ah Li's condition has not improved.

In April of the second year, at the turn of late spring and Mengxia, when the tea leaves were blooming and the little lotus was just emerging, Huan Daolian gave birth.

Because the delivery was ten days earlier than expected, the Xie family was not yet fully prepared.

Just caught up with Xie Qingru Guining.Thanking the family for the banquet and thanking the media, Sima Yu brought Ari Weifu.Suddenly a happy event came, and they became busy for a while.Xie Lian is such a quiet person, he just ran away with the flagon.

Sima Yu and Ari looked at each other in blank dismay, each holding back their smiles.

From noon until the sun was shining in the sky, the news came from the delivery room.It's a boy, mother and child are safe.

The whole family congratulated each other, the joy on their faces couldn't be hidden.Even the Taifu is cheerful when he sees people.

Xie Lian never came back, Wang Yan wanted to accompany Xie Qingru.Only Sima Yu and Wei Lang are outsiders, so they will not stay soon.Ah Li also went back together.

Xie Lian stood by Huan Daolian's bedside.

The lights are so warm that you want Xie Lian's gaze.He was holding the child for Dao Huan to look at.

Huan Daolian fiddled with him, couldn't help but leaned over and kissed, and asked: "Did you choose a name?

Xie Lian said: "The character is Wei, what do you think?"

Huan Daolian murmured: "Tong Guan Youwei..." nodded, "It's brilliant, it's a good name." Then he said, "You will treat him well."

Xie Lian glanced at her with a smile, a little bit of blame, but not harsh at all.

Huan Daolian didn't respond, he remained calm and said, "It's time to write me a divorce letter."

Xie Lian realized this time that she was not joking.But he didn't refute it immediately, but handed the child to the wet nurse, and after putting it in place, he quietly sat down beside Huan Daolian and asked, "Where do you start with this?"

Huan Daolian looked into Xie Lian's eyes, sighed and sad, and his voice was as soft as ever: "I met you when I was seven years old, and it's been 11 years now. I knew you a long time ago—— Before I wanted to marry you, I always admired you. I thought that I would be able to spend this life with you, and I didn’t dare to ask for more. In the end, I was still wrong——Xie Lang, people are always dissatisfied. Since I married you Later, I realized that what I want is far more than that. If I don’t get it, I will not be able to enjoy it in my life, and maybe I will hurt you in the end. But, you are destined not to give me so much. Why not I left early to avoid future injuries."

Xie Lian was silent, the candlelight was bright and dark, dancing in his eyes.

After a long time, he put his hand on Huan Daolian's, stared at it, and said, "Tell me, maybe I can give it to you?"

Huan Daolian smiled and shook his head, "Impossible, you still have someone else in your heart, I can feel it. I thought, you can't marry her, maybe it's because of improper family status? Now that you have an heir, you can bring her into the family. I don't want to share with others, and I don't want to bear that you will be in love for the rest of your life, so I might as well leave."

Xie Lian was silent.She opened it from the sandalwood box under the pillow - there was this concentric knot and a silver silk blessing purse inside, as good as new.

"It's something you've been hiding." Huan Daolian said, "I've asked a craftsman to repair the purse—it's such a delicate job, I can't keep up with it. Keep it well, since it's such a precious thing, don't break it again. gone."

Xie Lian held the thing in her hands, and after a while, got up and threw it into the brazier.

"It's my fault," he said, "that you shouldn't have kept it to make your imagination run wild."

Huan Daolian lowered his head, and with a smile on his lips, he began to sob softly, "I did that..." But Xie Lian's intentions had already been proved to her.

"what?"

"It's all done by me. It's such a difficult job. It took a long time to learn...you burned it."

Xie Lian: ...

He hurriedly turned around to save him, Huan Daolian hugged him from behind, "...I'll make a new one for you, remember to wear it."

"Yeah." Xie Lian couldn't help but sighed with a smile, turned around and hugged her, "It's something that can be explained clearly by opening your mouth. It takes so much thought. You are all mothers. I really don't understand you."

Before arriving at the East Palace, Ahri couldn't hold on any longer, and developed a high fever that night.Almost unconscious.

Struggling to come alive again.When she woke up, Sima Yu was still guarding her bedside.

Seeing Ahri wake up, he grabbed her hand tightly, but couldn't say a word.

Ari opened his mouth, and Sima Yu hurriedly listened.

What Ari said was: "Can I not have children? I probably won't have children in my life. Just the two of us, okay?" But before Sima Yu answered, she had already turned her head away, "I Nonsense."

Only at this time did she finally understand—probably childlessness and devotion were her exam questions.

However, Sima Yu was the only son, how could she let him have no offspring?How could she cheat him into a promise at this time for the sake of gambling?The flag of her death has been firmly established, so why drag him down for the rest of his life?

She took a sip of water and said to Sima Yu, "Come up and lie down, hug me."

There is timelessness in her voice.

The most beautiful years also stay in this night forever.After all, Ari still left him alone again.
