Farewell to Zhu Yan

The candle shadow reflects the white tent, and the jade pendant becomes more and more exquisite.

The young Xu Jingxin sits on a light and warm wooden couch by the window, leaning on a soft pillow woven with cotton balls, holding silver needles in plain hands, and carefully embroidering a piece of kapok brocade with bright red cinnabar.

The woven cotton glow silk robe hangs down the floor, inside the robe is a homely moon white dress, embroidered with plain magnolia branches, three thousand blue silks are simply tied with a Liuyun hairpin, and a few silk flower jade pendants are randomly adorned, Xu Jingxin's crow-feathered long eyelashes drooped quietly, her black eyes were as moist as water, and there was a smile on the corner of her lips.

The gauze curtain flutters outside the carved circular wooden window, and you can see a quiet courtyard with flowers, trees and lotus ponds, a bright moon in the sky, and green bamboos, which make people feel comfortable.

Emperor Ji Yongning was standing there, a magnolia tree that was as white as snow and translucent, and she was wearing a light red safari suit, which contrasted sharply and was eye-catching at a glance.

Black hair crown, holding a silver / gun.

The sterling silver spear/spear was engraved with lifelike images of birds and phoenixes, sharp and cold, flashing light in the night.

The nine-nine 81-style hundred birds and phoenix marksmanship was wielded by her slowly, with a heroic posture.

Xu Jingxin was embroidered with a kapok flower, and looked at the Yongning Emperor Ji who was dancing a spear outside the window for a while. The jade hibiscus and the jasmine flower in front of the court were in full bloom together, with a strong fragrance.

After Xu Jingxin embroidered ninety-nine and 81 branches of kapok, it was already midnight, and Emperor Ji Yongning stopped waving the gun.

Empress Yongning put her back on her shoulders, walked through the orchid bushes under the courtyard with a smile, and called: "Jingxin."

"En." Xu Jingxin responded, picked up a pitted and sliced ​​candied cherry from the small table in front of him, and fed it to Emperor Ji Yongning's mouth.

Emperor Ji Yongning bit the cherry, chewed it and asked curiously, "What are you embroidering?"

"I want to embroider you a cape with branches of kapok." Xu Jingxin stretched out his hand and brushed the Yinzhu flowers on the bright red brocade, his cheeks flushed slightly, "Kapok is called a hero flower, I think it is very suitable for Liu Yan .”

Emperor Ji Yongning smiled and said, "Then embroider an orchid for me on the collar."

"Huh?" Xu Jingxin was taken aback.

"Don't you like orchids the most?" Emperor Ji Yongning smiled brightly while leaning on the window sill, "From now on, I will wear this cloak every day, which is equivalent to bringing you by my side every day."

"Okay." Xu Jingxin nodded with a smile, just lowered her head to embroider a few times, then suddenly remembered something and suddenly raised her head, "Go out from my orchid bushes, take a shower and go back to bed."

"Okay, okay." Emperor Ji Yongning hurriedly withdrew from Xu Jingxin's precious orchid bushes, and rolled her eyes, "Then I'm going to take a bath."

"Go, I'll wait for you to come back."

Xu Jingxin responded with a smile, and continued to lower her head to carefully embroider the bright red kapok.

Xu Zixuan climbed on the outer wall, staring at the inner courtyard with a serious expression.

The attendant who helped to hold the ladder said softly: "Master, it's night..."

"This little demon king suddenly came to Zuo Xiang's mansion and wanted to sleep on the same bed as Jing Xin." Xu Zixuan tried his best to grab the edge of the vine wall, "It must have bad intentions."

The maid on the other side of the ladder sighed: "Little girl is like this in every family. She has a good older sister or younger sister."

Xu Zixuan raised his eyebrows and said, "Do you think the Goddess of War who rides a thousand horses on the battlefield is a little girl?"

The maid said helplessly to Xu Zixuan who became stupid when she met her daughter: "I mean Miss..."

But Xu Zixuan clicked his tongue and said, "That's right, the little devil Chang Jingxin is five years old, who knows what she will do to Jingxin."

The attendant was speechless: "What are you worried about, the two girls?"

"Don't be afraid of the eventuality, but be afraid of the [-]."

After Xu Zixuan gritted his teeth and said this, he fell off the wall with a bang.

Xu Jingxin was in the courtyard, only heard a muffled crisp sound, and was about to investigate, but saw Yongning Diji, who was covered in water vapor, pushing the door and entering.

The gauze tent is half hooked, the woman is in a red robe, her black hair is half-wet, and a silver edge is fastened between her hair. Her skin is pale and slightly rough, her face is cold and beautiful, her lips are like rouge, and her eyes are sharp. With a smile on his face, he was looking at Xu Jingxin without blinking.

"You continue to embroider." Emperor Ji Yongning sat down opposite her, and took out several volumes of military books. "I read."

Xu Jingxin smiled and said: "If Liu Yan is a man, she must be a great general who favors officials."

"Women can't do it?" Emperor Yongning asked with a smile, "I'm still the female general of the God of War?"

"Yes." Xu Jing's eyes were tender, "My Liu Yan is the most powerful."

"Yeah." Emperor Ji Yongning nodded without changing her expression, "Your family."

Xu Jingxin pursed her lips and smiled, and asked, "Isn't Liuyan afraid?"

"What are you afraid of?" Emperor Ji Yongning looked up at her while annotating the book of war.

"The world is in chaos, the family and the country are in turmoil, life and death are parting, the battlefield is dangerous..." Xu Jingxin mused, "...One will be successful and all will be destroyed."

Emperor Yongning laughed lightly and said: "Then what can be done? The war came unexpectedly, so we can only kill by killing, and seeking peace is only the result of losing both sides."

Xu Jingxin was embroidered with ninety-nine or eighty bright red kapoks on the branches. The silk thread was soaked in cinnabar, which gave off a light fragrance in the room.

Only one flower is missing, and there are ninety-nine and 81 flowers.

The skeined silver gauze curtain on the soft couch by the window is swaying gently, sprinkled with bright stardust, and there is a small table in the middle, with vermilion fruit tea on the table, bright candles are indifferent, and the woman in plain clothes on the left is leaning on the soft pillow, with a beautiful face, She was lowering her head and meticulously embroidering a piece of Lianji kapok on a bright red satin surface. The woman in red on the right was holding a book of war in her hand and examining it carefully.

In this way, the years are quiet.

Xu Jingxin embroidered the last flower, still raised her eyes to look at Emperor Ji Yongning, saw the blank cover, and asked, "Did Liu Yan write the book of war by herself?"

Emperor Ji Yongning nodded, and said: "According to the summary of the experience of the predecessors, plus my own strategy, I corrected it again. Fighting a war depends not only on force, but also on brain."

Xu Jingxin was silent for a while, then said: "But my father said Liu Yan that you couldn't even memorize the Book of Songs when you were young."

"Don't listen to his nonsense." Emperor Ji Yongning replied without raising her head, "I can't memorize it now either."

"It seems that Liu Yan is really a born general." Xu Jingxin nodded with a smile, embroidered the last stitch, and traced Su Lan on the neckline with dark silver thread, then put down the brocade and needlework in her hand, and got down from the couch.

"Okay?" Yongning Emperor Ji raised her head sharply, put down her brush, closed her handwriting, and went to help Xu Jingxin.

"Are you alright? It just so happens that it's getting late, so let's go to sleep." Xu Jing smiled, and held the hand of Yongning Emperor Ji. The Di Ji's hands, which have been fighting all the year round, are not as white and tender as a woman's boat, but thin calluses Born horizontally, with long and slender fingers.

Emperor Ji Yongning smiled and said, "Yes."

The moon is full in the sky.

The next day, Xu Jing, who had slept all night with Emperor Ji Yongning, went to the hall for breakfast refreshed and found that his father had broken his waist last night.

Emperor Yongning held back a smile for a day and a night.
