The little sweetheart of the rough family

August fifteen.

On the day of the Mid-Autumn Festival reunion, the people in Jinling City were displaced and cried constantly.The black smoke covered the sky, and the day was like night. The fire had been burning for three days.

Emperor Yuanguang Zhao Yu was more ruthless than Cheng Dingyan and the others imagined.

Looking at the bustling and familiar place in the past has turned into a pile of ruins and scorched earth, Zhao Ling lowered his eyes, and the hands hanging by his sides were tightly clenched into fists.

Cheng Dingyan was by his side, and walked outside the Dingguo Mansion without knowing it.

The seal on the gate was still there. Cheng Dingyan tore off the seal and pushed the door in. The heavy lacquered red gate made a piercing sound. It was only a year or two, but the yard was desolate.

The weeds were waist-deep, and the vines grew wantonly and entangled the pillars under the eaves. Maybe someone came in. The wild cat hiding in the grass screamed "meow" in surprise, and then ran up the courtyard wall. ? Climbed up to the roof and quickly disappeared from sight.

"Ayan, do you think I was wrong at the beginning?"

His mistake was that he should not have had expectations for his brothers, and surrendered Dayu's thousands of miles of land and mountains to them, so much so that Zhao Yu burned the entire capital city before he fled today.

Cheng Dingyan was in a daze for a long time.

It seemed that nothing had changed in the mansion in front of me, the maids kept coming and going, holding the best fruits in their hands.

The younger brother was lying in his mother's arms, acting like a baby, and said that he would go on an autumn tour in the suburbs of Beijing.

Grandfather and father drank on the sidelines, occasionally talking about political matters, and the whole family enjoyed themselves.

Before the accident, he was always against his father. His father asked him to study and he had to learn martial arts. Because of this, he was beaten and couldn't get out of bed for half a month. Later, his father ignored him, and he felt that he wanted to learn martial arts again. There was no interest, and I started to study and go to school with peace of mind.

Zhao Ling's words interrupted his thoughts, and he held the hand of the person beside him.

"The past has been forged. What we can do is to unify Dayu as soon as possible. Only stability and peace can save the common people from suffering."

The entire capital was full of soldiers, but under Cheng Dingyan's management, no one dared to do anything by force. Maybe it was God's mercy. It rained early this morning, and the fire was gradually extinguished.

After a busy day, when I returned to the temporary residence.

Her mother, Liu Wenyin, had already prepared the meals, and she asked them to sit down.

Everyone had something on their minds, and there was no sound at the dinner table except for the soft sound of bowls and chopsticks clashing.

After dinner, Liu Wenyin cut two more mooncakes.

When the wind stopped and the rain stopped in the evening, a big and bright full moon hung on the branches, covering the devastated capital city in a layer of soft light.

Liu Wenyin took a small mouthful of mooncakes and wept silently.

"I don't know how Yanping is doing now? In the past, he loved festivals the most, and he liked the excitement. I don't know if there will be mooncakes this year?"

Cheng Dingyan comforted softly: "Mother, little brother, he will be fine. You always praised him since you were young, saying that he is smarter and more blessed than me. And the news has already spread, if little brother gets the news, he will try to come back Find us."

Zhao Ling also agreed after hearing the words: "Yes, although Zhao Yu is more ruthless, but to Yan Ping..."

Among these princes, Zhao Yu was the only one who didn't get along well with others since he was a child. He always had a cold look, he wasn't very lovable, and he didn't have any friends. Only Cheng Yanping always liked to pull him along in whatever he did.

And one year when Zhao Yu fell into the water, it was Cheng Yanping who saved his life with all his might.

As soon as Zhao Yu was mentioned, Cheng Dingyan's eyebrows and eyes became a little colder.

"If he had that kind of heart, he wouldn't treat our Cheng family like this." After shouting, he felt that what he said was inappropriate, he turned his head to look at his mother, and his voice returned to normal, "Mother, everything will be fine. The little brother will come back, and our Cheng family will make a comeback."

The family was talking, and someone came outside to report.

"Your Majesty, there is a guard outside asking to see you."

Cheng Dingyan was depressed, and said displeasedly: "Let's talk about what's going on tomorrow!"

But the soldier who sent the message didn't leave, and said with a distressed expression: "But that man said he has news about Young Master Cheng!"

As soon as the words fell, Cheng Dingyan rushed out like a gust of wind.

He Ming returned to Beijing after sending Cheng Yanping to Longmen Town, and presented the jade pendant given to him by Cheng Yanping before his departure to Emperor Yuanguang. He remembered that Emperor Yuanguang held the jade pendant for a long time without saying a word.

In the end he was transferred from the palace and went to the patrol battalion.

This time Zhao Yu left in a hurry, only a few people were left behind, and he was one of them.

A few days ago, the second prince led people to take over the capital, and he could see clearly that since the second prince entered the city, he appeased the refugees and actively maintained the stability in the city. He had a plan and decided to abandon the dark and turn to the bright.

He Ming stood guard outside the door, only to feel a blur in front of his eyes, and someone grabbed his collar.

"Where is my little brother?"

Cheng Dingyan's breathing was a little short, and Jun's face was flushed.

Zhao Ling comforted him: "Ayan, calm down and listen to him carefully."

Only then did Cheng Dingyan let go of his hand, and stared straight at He Ming.

He Ming knelt down on one knee and said: "He Ming, a humble job, is the one who escorted Young Master Cheng to Liangzhou. Right now, Young Master Cheng is living in Longmen Town, not far from Liangzhou City. Please rest assured, Young Master Cheng."

Hearing this, Cheng Dingyan finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Liu Wenyin who came after him wept again.

"Okay, it's fine, it's fine, it's fine. Dingyan, quickly send a team to bring Yan Ping back."

Cheng Dingyan thought for a moment, then helped his mother back to the house.

"Mother, the overall situation is uncertain at the moment, and the capital city and Liangzhou are far apart. In my opinion, there is no rush. If Zhao Yu finds out about this matter, and if he threatens him with Yan Ping, then we will be... ..."

Liu Wenyin nodded after hearing this for a long time.

"It's still your thoughtfulness. In fact, knowing that your brother is well, it's the same if you see him sooner or later."

After serving his mother to fall asleep, Cheng Dingyan called He Ming in again and handed him a letter.

"You send this letter to my little brother!"

......

Although the sky on this side of the capital is still hot, Longmen Town has a chill.

It seemed that after just one night, the sky turned cold.

In order to be afraid of seeing things and thinking about people in the schedule of the festival, Zhao Hou made a fuss to ask the two families to celebrate the festival together so that it would be more lively.Huahua was the first to be happy, and once Huahua was happy, Sun Erde, Grandma Sun and Sister-in-law Xu all agreed.

I have been busy all day during the day.

Made a great meal for a large table.

Roasted chicken with chestnuts, braised fish in brown sauce, roasted pork with lentils, homemade tofu, stir-fried kidneys, braised pork in brown sauce, steamed salted fish, etc., can't fit on a table of Eight Immortals.

Sun Erde drank some wine and lost his defense when he spoke.

"General, your craftsmanship is getting better and better. If you stop fighting and open an inn and restaurant, the business will definitely be very good. But I am panicking for you. People like you are born to be here Fighting on the battlefield, now nestled in this corner, eating three meals a day, you don't feel bored. If it were me..."

"Ouch!"

He let out a strange cry, and looked at Mrs. Xu, "Why are you twisting my thigh, you bitch?"

Sister-in-law Xu looked at Grandma Sun with red eyes.

"Mom, look at how he turned into this after taking a few mouthfuls of horse urine, and he called me a bitch."

Sun Erde stuttered a little.

"You...you're not a bitch...are you... still a man?"

Grandma Sun glared at her son, "If you drink too much, go home quietly and lie down with your dead body, don't talk nonsense here, it just makes a joke."

Seeing this, Huahua interjected.

"Father, go back quickly!"

A pair of three, Sun Erde raised his head and drank the wine in the glass, and went home.Sister-in-law Xu saw that he couldn't even walk steadily, so she quickly chased after him to help him.

When there were only two people left in the room, Cheng Yanping didn't notice, and was hugged by Zhao Hou and sat on his lap.

The man's breath contained a strong aroma of wine.

Zhao Hou buried it between his neck and took a deep breath, "Yanyan, you smell so sweet!"

The man's beard was a little prickly, Cheng Yanping stretched out his hand to push him away.

"Zhao Hou, let me tell you, today is a holiday, I don't want to make trouble with you, don't pretend to be crazy by drinking."

Knowing that he was ticklish, Zhao Hou deliberately rubbed against the side of his neck.

"I'm going to make trouble, what can you do to me?"

His eyes were already drunk, and he became more and more like a child, "I will not only make trouble today, but also tomorrow, and I will make trouble with you every day from now on."

......

When Cheng Yanping woke up again, it was already dark.

"Godfather, godfather, we are going to burn torches in the open space outside the city, you can go with us, it's fun."

Huahua rushed in like a gust of wind.

Cheng Yanping hurriedly wrapped the quilt around her body. Seeing his sleepy look, Huahua muttered in a low voice: "Sir taught us to be diligent and studious all day long, but why are you still lying on the bed after falling asleep?" You're a big slob who refuses to get up."

Cheng Yanping blushed, and glared at Zhao Hou who just came in from the outside.

Zhao Hou handed him the cold tea and threw Huahua out.

After Cheng Yanping drank the tea, his throat felt better.

Hastily changed clothes and went out with Hua Hua.

The full moon hangs high, sprinkled with water-like brilliance.

The children not far away ran wildly with their handles raised. A group of people lined up and started running. From a distance, they looked like a fire dragon, which was very beautiful.

After setting off the torches, the children still felt that it was not enough, so they went to dig some sweet potatoes and said they wanted to roast them.

When Zhao Houxun came, the children were tired from playing and clamoring to go home and sleep.

After sending the children home, the two walked down the street holding hands, with a round moon above their heads and a long road under their feet.

The surrounding area was extremely quiet, except for one or two dogs barking occasionally.

Zhao Hou hugged his waist, tiptoed to the ground, and flew up to the roof with him.

Longmen Town has many tall houses than the capital city, and the view is very good when standing on the roof. The scattered houses spread out, and the vague outline of Xiaocang Mountain can be vaguely seen in the distance.

The two sat side by side on the roof.

Cheng Yanping leaned on Zhao Hou's shoulder and looked at the stars all over the sky.

Just as he was staring intently, suddenly there was a Kongming lantern slowly rising into the night sky in front of his eyes.

The Kongming lanterns blown by the night wind are getting higher and higher, flying farther and farther.

But he still saw the words written on the Kongming lantern.

"Fate is destined for three lives, and the white head is the appointment."

"Never leave, never give up, life and death go hand in hand."

Cheng Yanping's vision gradually blurred, this is the sentence he wrote on their wedding post.

He choked up and asked him, "When did you know how to read?"

Zhao Hou hugged him even tighter.

"This is a marriage post that Yan Yan wrote to me, how could I not know it?"

The author has something to say: Brother Hou: My banquet is the best in the world.
