"I steamed pastries for my husband, please try it." Lian Sheng raised the tray in her hand a little. She freed a hand and opened the ceramic lid to reveal a few small and exquisite pastries.
The pastries are made into white and fat little dumplings, which are particularly cute.
"If you don't eat it, take it away." Yi Qiancheng glanced at the pastry in her hand and said with disgust.
“Why not eat it?”
"Showing your kindness to nothing is a traitor or a thief." He raised his eyes lazily, his eyes paused on her swollen forehead, and then moved away as if nothing had happened.
"Husband is right, I have something to ask for." Lian Sheng blinked, trying his best to make himself seem obedient and sincere.
"If it's Yingdong's business, there's no need to mention it." Yi Qiancheng's face quickly calmed down. When he heard Lian Sheng asking for something, he subconsciously thought of Yingdong. His lips slightly raised, but his eyes were cold and cold. He seemed to be ready to overturn the tray in Lian Sheng's hand at any time and then leave with his sleeves.
"It's not Yingdong's business." Lian Sheng silently hugged the pastry a little, "I want to ask my husband for some medicine. I'm afraid there are scars on my forehead. My husband doesn't like me at first, and he doesn't like me even more if he becomes ugly."
"You are ugly now." Yi Qiancheng was full of malice.
"Yes, yes, I'm ugly, you're the most beautiful. Every time I see you, my heart beats thump." When she said "thump", she deliberately slowed down her tone and was particularly lingering.
"Sweet words!" He lowered his head and picked and chose from her hands. In fact, every white dumpling looked similar. His fingers hesitantly skipped one dumpling after another. He probably didn't know what he was doing... or wanted to cover up something.
"Unless." Yi Qiancheng commented without hesitation. The white dumplings were sweet and greasy, just like her smiling face. In fact, the dumplings were fragrant when they bite them, and they had nothing to do with the unpalatable ones.
"Then I will practice hard in the future until my husband likes me. I won't disturb you anymore." Lian Sheng was not angry. She got up early in the morning just to make a few pastries in her hand. She originally wanted to please Yi Qiancheng, but he didn't care that he could eat it. Lian Sheng bowed and turned around and wanted to go back first.
"Wait, leave the things. Since it is for me, I should throw them away. The medicine manager will send them over. Don't sway around your ugly face. I look in a bad mood."
"Okay husband~" She turned around in surprise, her eyes curled, and the morning sun was fine, not as bright as her smile.
"Don't talk to me in this tone!" he said viciously.
"What accent~" she asked softly.
"Get out." Yi Qiancheng was powerless and didn't even want to see her. In fact, before he finished speaking, he wanted to say that he was not allowed to smile at him like that. It seemed like... he wanted to seduce someone's smile, and he felt bad.
Yi Qiancheng looked at her happy back and thought to herself that nothing she did was useless. Some things were destined that he would not let Yingdong be occupied by the Western Qiang. However, Yi Qiancheng's eyes became cold and he would not let Yingdong have a better life.
Fifty miles outside Yingdong City, Lian Qi frowned and felt uneasy. It has been almost a month since he fought against the Western Qiang. He led his soldiers to die and refused to let the Western Qiang people take a step forward. He could not bear it before, but recently the Western Qiang always attacked in the middle of the night. When they came, they killed people and slapped them with a knife, which was extremely cruel.
No one knows when they will appear, so they are always particularly alert every night. Even so, their repeated attacks have caused panic. After all, no one knows whether they were still patrolling around vigilantly for the last moment, and the next moment, the Xiqiang people cut their necks from behind.
Long-term precautions are not a solution, people's hearts will be distracted and soldiers' spirits will be ineffective.
They were always guarding the city, which was too passive. Lian Qi's fingers hit the map, his sword eyebrows were sharp, and a trace of murderous aura flashed in his eyes. It was better to take the initiative to attack.
Lian Qi knew that he could not wait for reinforcements, and the Western Qiang soldiers were strong and strong, everyone was cruel, so he would always make the worst plans. But after thinking about it, he didn't know what to do when the city was broken and he died in the battle.
Except for herself, the Lord of Yingdong City Mansion has almost no relatives pity on her. Even if her father gave up guarding the city and decided to cross the river to the imperial city, he would not necessarily be worried about Lian Sheng when he encountered danger.
Thinking of the cunning smile and clear eyes of his sister Lian Sheng, Lian Qi's hand couldn't help but tighten the map, and a gloomy appeared on his face. He must go back alive, no matter what the price he paid! Because Lian Sheng was still waiting for him.
He had to turn the situation around as soon as possible. In the past few days, Lian Qi always felt uneasy, as if he was about to lose something important. His heart seemed to be hanging from the top of the cliff by a thread. He would sink hard when someone cut off the tight thread.
Lian Qi's voice was low, revealing undeniable resoluteness: "Send the order to attack the camps of the Western Qiang tonight."
The generals came back to count the night attackers. Their goal tonight was to burn the food and grass of the Western Qiang people.
Just as Lian Qi's army tensed the strings in his mind and was about to counterattack, the Lord of Lian City received an exciting good news in Yingdong City - the second prince replied to him.
Yingdong had asked for help all over the past, but it was like a rock sinking into the sea and there was no response. The city lord Lian was desperate and was already planning his way out. He had not many choices. The first was to guard Yingdong and bury the city with his family. Otherwise, before the city was broken, he would take his family to escape to the imperial city by water.
He was unwilling to take the first road, but the second road may not be a life road. The city lord abandoned the city and fled, and he would never get rid of his infamy in his life, let alone abandoning the city is a serious crime of beheading.
In desperation, he asked Yi Qiancheng for help.
A few years ago, he stood on the city tower and saw Yi Qiancheng who was in his teenage years old. At that time, Yi Qiancheng was still a thin boy, but there was already a very strong sense of hostility between his eyebrows and eyes.
Like a little wolf cub.
Now the wolf cub is full of wings, enough to tear the enemy's body and bite the enemy's throat. Lian Chengzhu was very afraid of him, but when he thought of the consequences of the city breaking, he gritted his teeth and sent his confidant to ask for help.
Who knew he would ask for the girl from the Lian family?
Liancheng Lord sent Lian Sheng over, but he didn't expect Yi Qiancheng had no intention of sending troops now. Liancheng Lord was angry and wanted to tear the wolf cub who had broken his way out of his orders. But now he couldn't even walk out of Yingdong, so how could he talk about attacking Yi Qiancheng?
I lost a daughter out for nothing, and was even teased.
No matter how anxious he was, the days were passing day by day. Lian Qi worked harder and harder. Lian City Lord's heart sank to the bottom of the valley. Finally, he decided to ask Mrs. Sang and his second son and youngest daughter to pack up their things, and he prepared to go to the ship in the imperial city by himself.
Once Lian Qi could not hold on, he immediately fled to Beijing. Even if he had been infamous for his whole life, it would be better than losing his life.
However, at this time, the second prince actually gave him a glimmer of hope. The city lord Lian held the letter in his hand and almost wanted to laugh out loud.
——The second prince is the most likely person among the few princes to inherit the throne. A year ago, he inspected the city instead of the emperor. When he came to Yingdong, he lived in the city lord's mansion for half a month before returning to the imperial city.
At that time, the Lord of Lian was extremely pleased with the second prince. I guess the second prince had a good impression of him, so he would reply at this time, stating that he would do his best to mobilize reinforcements.
If reinforcements from the imperial city really come, or the emperor ordered the surrounding cities to send troops to support them, Yingdong would be saved!
The Lord of Lian was happy and hurriedly picked up a pen to write a letter to Lian Qi, and explained the news that the second prince would help. His move also meant to give Lian Qi confidence - reinforcements will arrive, you must hold on!
The Lord of Liancheng was still worried that Lian Qi knew that he had married Lian Sheng to Yi Qiancheng. Moreover, from the current situation, even if Yi Qiancheng asked Lian Sheng to go there, he would not send troops.
He was worried that his eldest son would be furious when he knew about this and would no longer protect Yingdong.
Even the city lord thought with great regret that he had two sons and two daughters, but at the critical moment, he had to rely on the two he was most indifferent to, Lian Qi and Lian Sheng. The one he loved, Lian Sitian and Lian Xiyue, had no effect at all!
At the same time, on the way back to Seabuckthorn City from Fengmucheng, a man in purple was lying on the horse's back with his legs raised. The horse slowly walked forward. He closed his eyes, held a dog-tail grass in his mouth, and hummed a little song in his nose.
"Master, is it really okay for you to go back like this? Will the general and the military advisor be angry?" The entourage reminded carefully that they were walking too slowly. After half a month's journey, it would take him a full year to walk according to his master's way.
The man in purple was Fu Chengyu. He opened his eyes, and his lazy eyes were filled with a hint of undetectable sharpness: "Why are you anxious? The news has been sent back, and the good show is about to be staged. Can't I let me have a few days of peace in my life?"
"But, you couldn't even catch up with the general's marriage." The follower touched his nose and retorted carefully.
"Yes, people like Yi Qiancheng can marry a wife. I wonder how many days his wife can live? Tsk tsk, I really want to go back and see what that girl looks like, don't be old, ugly and scary, right? Hahahaha." He laughed uncontrollably.
"Master, let's say a little bit, there are generals behind him."
Fu Chengyu's happy expression slowly disappeared, but the smile at the corner of his mouth did not change. He suddenly turned over and sat upright, clamped his legs with his horse's belly, and the horse neighed and ran forward quickly.
"Master!Master...Why did you leave suddenly? Wait for us..."
Fu Chengyu laughed in a place they couldn't see, because the city where the wife's mother's house was soon to be broken. He was very kind-hearted and wanted to rush back to help her collect the body, ah!
The raging wind blew his hair into chaos, and Fu Chengyu narrowed his eyes like a cunning fox.
